Chapter 266: It's hard to open a cave
The power of the Nine Heavens and Stars is not only at night that can lead cultivation. Whether it's day or night, whether you're outside or inside the cave, the stars are always there. It's just that at the beginning, the cultivator was not familiar with the power of the stars, and did not establish enough sensing with the stars, so he needed to slowly contact and get familiar with the power of the sun at night when the power of the sun was not obvious.
The Emperor Ziwei of the Arctic Middle Heaven is the emperor of the ancient gods who ruled over the stars. The power of ten thousand stars gathers at the North Pole, so the Polaris field belongs to the most majestic place with star power. This column star sword chooses to use the left hand to open the acupoint of the Lao Gong to correspond to the North Pole, and the starting point is very high at first.
Fang Zhuo didn't particularly understand the power of the stars, but when it came to the formation, his opinion was very high. The Star Attracting Array is the key to cultivating the Star Sword, and every time you cultivate, you need to set up this array to attract the star power of the North Pole Beidou. This formation was complicated, much more complicated than any formation Fang Zhuo had seen before.
However, no matter how complex the formation was, the foundation of its structure was still composed of countless combinations of basic runes. Fang Zhuo analyzed some of the things he could recognize one by one, and found that some of the structures of this formation were not very reasonable.
Fang Zhuo didn't know which era the inheritance of this column of star swords originated from, but it was obvious that the style of this Star Drawing Array was quite different from the rune formation in the ancient period. The runes that were supposed to appear in some places did not appear, and Fang Zhuo estimated that this was due to the loss of some corresponding runes. Because judging from the Star Sword Star Attracting Array, this formation was generally extremely exquisitely constructed, and it could be said that its core part was far from being understood by Fang Zhuo. With such a superb formation, there were some problems that could be said to be low-level when it was created, which naturally should not be. This can only be a matter of the creator's knowledge, and has nothing to do with the attainment itself.
However, Fang Zhuo discovered these problems and thought about them, but found that he could not modify them at all. This formation itself is extremely perfect, one link after another, and each formation rune is involved in a series of formation construction problems. Fang Zhuo's existing strength was actually facing these problems and could not be solved!
This undoubtedly made Fang Zhuo very depressed.
You must know that after four years of penance in the left gorge of the mountain behind Xingjian Peak, Fang Zhuo sorted out all the things he had learned over the years from the beginning when he was free. Combined with the experience and other gains in the past few years, his attainments in the rune formation have undoubtedly taken another step. Judging from the research of the shadow stone wall, he is no longer in the creation of the formation.
But now, he was helpless against the Star Attracting Array.
It was getting dark. Fang Zhuo sat outside the thatched hut in the left gorge of the mountain behind Star Sword Peak, his right hand unconsciously rubbing a ring on his left hand. This ring was obtained by him in the mysterious realm, and it was originally worn on the finger of the Jindan Fu Xiu who turned into a stone man. It took Fang Zhuo a few years to gradually figure out how to use it, but there was still a long way to go before he could fully drive the ring.
Fang Zhuo had already analyzed some of the ice attributes and some metallic runes in this ring, but the other part was not harvested. But in the past four years, he has already interpreted another part of it. The runes of the metallic and ice attributes are undoubtedly two very powerful spells. Spells powered by runes will not be very powerful. The part behind the group is a formation, not a spell. Fang Zhuo analyzed that this formation should be a combination of a trapped formation and a phantom formation, but this formation was complex and profound, and Fang Zhuo could only understand a small part.
In this ring's talisman array, Fang Zhuo learned a lot. In addition, he also got a piece of this monk's cultivation experience from this Jindan monk, which is almost part of the inheritance of the Golden Rune Gate. Moreover, Fang Zhuo later gained the rune formation experience of Fan Dongliu, Lu Wenxin and Shen Pingkun, which made Fang Zhuo's rune formation attainments improve by leaps and bounds.
Fang Zhuo went over everything he had learned from all the parties, feeling that his current strength was indeed unable to improve the Star Attraction Array, he could only sigh and give up.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Fang Zhuo began to set up the formation.
The spirit stones were placed step by step, and the rune lines were carved one by one. It took Fang Zhuo half an hour to get this Star Attraction Array done.
After checking it from the beginning and confirming that it was correct, Fang Zhuo activated the Star Attracting Array.
The spirit stones began to glow with spiritual light, and spiritual light began to flow in the runes. Fang Zhuo saw that some of these spiritual lights poured into his body, and some of them gathered and rushed into the sky.
Fang Zhuo didn't care about studying the formation anymore, he hurriedly began to meditate and cultivate according to the technique of the Star Sword. The aura that enters the body needs to be pulled to the acupuncture point that you want to open, and then this aura gathers and condenses into a mass of spiritual power, which interacts with the star power in the air and attracts the star power into the acupuncture points. In this way, the acupuncture points can be slowly refined with the help of star power, and they can be gradually expanded.
Fang Zhuo's first choice was naturally the right hand Lao Gong acupoint. The Laogong acupoint itself is a big acupoint, the meridians are smooth, the qi and blood are sufficient, and it is easy to accumulate aura. After pulling the aura gathered into his body to the Lao Gong Acupoint in his right hand, Fang Zhuo's divine sense began to sense the starry sky.
The spiritual energy in the Lao Gong Cave gradually gathered, and after Fang Zhuo's refining and condensation, it turned into a spiritual power. Fang Zhuo felt that the Lao Gong acupoint was gradually expanding, and his spiritual power was becoming more and more abundant. The star power in the sky was converging towards this heaven and earth at this moment under the traction of the star attraction array, and Fang Zhuo could even see the stars within a zhang of the surrounding sky shining brightly, becoming brighter and brighter.
Urging the technique of the Star Sword, Fang Zhuo began to use the Star Attracting Array to attract the starlight.
The starlight in the sky suddenly began to converge towards the top of Fang Zhuo's head at this time, and gradually, the faint starlight converged into a dazzling beam of light!
At this moment, the Big Dipper Heavenly Pivot suddenly shone brightly, and a thin beam of starlight suddenly passed through the endless night sky and penetrated into the starlight gathered by the formation. Then, this starlight beam absorbed the starlight gathered by the Star Attracting Array and landed on Fang Zhuo's right hand Lao Gong Acupoint.
A sharp stinging pain came, and Fang Zhuo felt for the first time that the starlight that had gathered together was actually so intense! He had always thought that the starlight had no heat, but he didn't expect that the burning pain brought by the starlight was so strong at this moment!
The spiritual power gathered in the Lao Gong acupoint suddenly erupted and surged out of the acupuncture point, converging into the starlight outside the skin. Fang Zhuo felt the heat of the starlight suddenly become stronger, and his ears heard the squeak of his skin and flesh melting!
What's going on?
The intense pain, the burning sound, and the smell of burnt breath between the mouth and nose all indicate that this acupuncture process is a bit rough and overdone. Shen Pingqi told him every step of opening the acupoint in detail, but he didn't say that there would be such severe pain, nor did he say that the starlight would burn Fang Zhuo's body.
