Chapter 324 - III

“Inscription technique!”

Yang Junshan secretly said that. Before the appearance of the Sunset Ridge’s cave, he had already seen several secret techniques that ingeniously embed the two formations together.

In the light screen formed by the photo-inheritance bead, a thirty year old woman wearing simple clothes that couldn’t hide her graceful figure, with a dignified appearance and graceful temperament stood in the center of the light screen.

“My body resides in the Sunset Ridge, hence I will use the sunset as my symbol, the technique to set up the array is something that I obtained after many years of exploring the secrets of the array, if future generations find out that I was able to pass on the techniques, I hope that they can continue to be passed on, do not let me waste any of my time, I will pay my respects here!”

A gentle voice rang out from the secret room. This Adept Sunset merely gave his own name and went straight to the point and began to explain the profound mysteries of the array formation technique. During the process, Adept Sunset displayed the array formation technique on three small things.

The first item wahree-inch jade plate. The Daoist Master of the Sunset Martial School used the Arrays secret technique to link together and carved eight different formations. He explained the strength, the degree of the fire, the order and the points to be paid attention to, explaining everything clearly at the same time.

After the eight different array formations were superimposed, Daoist Master Sunset was drenched in sweat with exhaustion written all over his face.

Seeing that, Yang Junshan immediately removed the soil spirit force that was being poured into the Pearl of Shadows, the light screen immediately became faint, and in the end disappeared, leaving behind the Pearl of Shadows which was still floating in mid air.

The inheritance image recorded in the photo-inheritance bead could only be displayed once, but it could be paused midway. When it was opened again, the image that was previously demonstrated would naturally disappear, but the image that was not recorded later on could still be played.

But just the fact that he was able to see the eight arrays superimposed onto each other, it was already enough for Yang Junshan to have difficulty in the process of accepting them. If there was a more profound demonstration of the array inlay at the end, if Yang Junshan was unable to grasp it due to his lack of energy, wouldn’t that be a great pity!

The essence of this secret technique was’ exquisite ‘and’ ingenious’. The former could reduce the scale of the formation to the extreme, and the fact that the Duskfall Daoist could carve the formation on a slender wooden hairpin was proof of that, it could be said to be a mini sculpture within the formation. The latter could embed two or more formations together and, through the formation, connect them in waves.

What was more ingenious was that in the process of embedding array formations, the bases of different array formations could be borrowed from each other. This greatly reduced the cost of setting up array formations, and also greatly reduced the space needed to set up array formations!

After that, he obtained some ancient items that had fallen out of the cave. There were even traces of Adept Sunset used to practice on them, and through his research on these items, he had already become proficient in the art of array inscriptions, even imitating and setting up formations other than the formation-type and the Jade Fragment Formation.

However, most of the research was done on imitations, and did not know the reason, but this time, after obtaining the complete inheritance of the Inscription Secret Technique, he felt enlightened.

Previously, he felt quite pleased with himself when he had imprinted the Hidden Form Array and the Jade Fragment Array together, but now that he saw that Daoist Master Sunset was able to superimpose eight arrays at one go, he understood how shallow he was.

Of the eight inscriptions, Yang Junshan took a month to roughly grasp them, but this grasp merely referred to him memorizing and understanding the contents of the Pearl of Radiance and then using a little more than half a year to finally be able to inscribe three different types of arrays on the same jade tablet.

However, when Yang Junshan wanted to take a step further, when he tried to inscribe the fourth formation on the jade tablet, he always failed because of his low spiritual sense and the huge consumption of spiritual energy. Thus, he broke into four to five jade tablets, all of these were made of spirit jade, and each of them were worth close to twenty Jade Coins s.

After a few consecutive failures, Yang Junshan finally understood that it was not because he did not have enough comprehension in formations, whether it was the lack of Spiritual Awareness or Spiritual Energy, all of these were caused by his lack of cultivation, which meant that his cultivation at the third level of martial arts realm was dragging him down.

He couldn’t be in a hurry to increase his cultivation!

Helpless, Yang Junshan could only fire up that small photo-inheritance bead again. Following that, in the light screen, Sage Sunset was demonstrating and explaining the inlay and stacking of spirit formations. As Sage Sunset could only do this, she could only embed three more different spirit formations within the originally large enough space to set up one spirit formation, achieving the effect of four stacking.

Although Yang Junshan could understand and understand the explanation of the inheritance this time, he was still unable to succeed when he tried to embed the two immovable mountains and the magnetic light Formation. The reason was simple, but it was also because of the limitations of their cultivation and their lack of knowledge.

After knocking against a wall twice in a row, Yang Junshan was able to delay the last part of the inheritance pearl’s inheritance demonstration. If he was not wrong, it should be the most difficult treasure array inlaid and superimposed, Yang Junshan’s current inlaid secret technique was even unable to do anything about it, not to mention the treasure array, furthermore he did not have a inheritance of a treasure grade array.

However, he believed that he would soon receive the inheritance of the treasure array!

Yang Junshan’s eyes looked at the other photo-inheritance bead in his hand that was a generation older than the previous one!

Array-setting secret techniques were after all just a secret art inheritance related to formations. It had nothing to do with formations themselves. As an array cultivator, the true inheritance left behind by Daoist Master Sunset was naturally the inheritance of formations themselves.

Wutu Earth Spiritual Energy unceasingly poured into the inheritance pearl. However, this inheritance pearl seemed to be devouring his Spiritual Energy like it was a bottomless abyss, and was unable to reach the critical point of activating the inheritance pearl.

The spirit energy of the cultivator was the power to support the image display inside the inheritance pearl, and since the inheritance pearl could not be driven, there was only one reason, the information recorded within the inheritance pearl was too big!

Fortunately, Yang Junshan had not stopped his cultivation for the past half a year or so. After his injuries had healed, the training he had done as a border guard cultivator and the knowledge he had accumulated in his cave under the Sunset Ridge allowed his cultivation to improve further. In addition to the various cultivation resources he had accumulated during this period of time, although his cultivation could not increase by as much ahousand miles in a single day, he was still able to steadily move forward.

Unfortunately, there was still a long way to go before he could break through the bottleneck to the fourth stage. After all, he had only advanced to the third stage for a short period of time.

The Mirage Pearl in Yang Junshan’s hand trembled slightly as a joyous expression appeared on his face. Then, a curtain of light sprinkled outwards as the graceful and elegant Sage Duskfall once again appeared in front of him.

I have been living in the underground for dozens of years, and my time is running out. I have always wanted to leave behind a legacy for those who are willing to learn about formations in their lifetime, and I hope that those who are willing to learn it in the future will be able to. The path of formations is vast and profound.

“All the formations in the world originate from the nine mother formations: One, Two, Three Talents, Four Appearances, Five Elements, Six Harmonies, Seven Stars, Eight Trigrams, and Nine Palaces. Under each of the nine formations, they extend and merge together, forming hundreds and thousands of spirit formations.

“Everything I learned came from the three talents and five elements mother array. After leaving the sect, I learned and mastered it after many years. I built my own system and created seven array formations under the third stage of the Five Elements Lightning Light array, and only then did I manage to control six array formations below the spirit array.”

“My entire body is trapped by my cultivation, and all I’ve learned is to stop at the treasure formation. I can’t investigate the secrets of the three great talents and the five great mother formation in one go. It would be very disappointing!”

At this time, Yang Junshan had long been attracted by the content of Master Sunset’s lecture. The cultivation world’s array formation originated from the nine mother formations, and all the spirit formations were split, evolved, and fused based on the nine mother formations.

And although the teachings of the Dwarf Sunset Faction involved two mother arrays, in particular, they were only the lightning array formation of the five elements and the spirit array of the three talents, and these two treasures were only the inheritance of one of the many factions under the two mother arrays.

Yang Junshan was originally a little happy because he was able to obtain and grasp the inheritance of the two spirit arrays. Only now did he understand how shallow and ignorant he was, and compared to the inheritance of the Duskfall Sage, whether it was the magnetic light Formation or the Immovable Mountain Spirit Formation, they were both like rootless wood, like rootless water, unstructured, and unregulated. In the future, if he wanted to improve on the path of the formation, he could only half the effort.

There were two inheritance systems left behind by Daoist Master Sunset, one was a seven set formation Five Elements Lightning Light, one was a Five Elements Lightning Light Treasure Formation, one was a Spiritual Array, two was a Five Elements Spirit Convergence Array, and four were the most basic five element arrays. The first series of three spirit controlling arrays consisted of a basic array, two were a secondary array, and the third set of basic array, footal of six sets of inheritance array formations.

As for the magnetic light Array and the Immoveable Mountain Spiritual Array that Yang Junshan had grasped, they were split according to Master Duskfall’s explanation. They should be an array that had extended out after being mixed together, with the origin of the four phenomena, the five elements, and the eight trigrams.

After describing the general outline of the lightning array, she began to explain in detail about the four sets of basic array formations. After that, she would explain the three sets of basic array formations of the Three Elements of Spirit Controlling Formation.

Although Yang Junshan’s previous inheritance was incomplete, it still had the foundation of an array master, a total of seven basic array formations. Yang Junshan spent three months to completely master these seven basic array formations.

This was also Yang Junshan’s most treasured inheritance. After all, he was now a formation master who was able to set foot in the formation world, and the formation technique he had previously only used to replenish his foundation was still the Spiritual Tier Array.

The first thing Yang Junshan did was study the Five Elements Spirit Convergence Array as a secondary type of formation for the Spiritual Arrays. After he mastered it, he put it into practice and with the help of Lin Chengsi and Yang Junxin, he covered the entire Western Mountain.
