[Basic Sword Formation Chapter]
[Grade: Earth Tier Top Grade]
[Attributes: Sword Control Formation, Sword Domain Self-Formed]
[Profound Celestial Sword Array Twelve Chapters - Basic Chapter, compiled by Xuan Tian Sword Immortal. Using swords as the base, gathering swords into formation, unmatched in attack.]
Li Mu's eyes shone brightly, excitedly looking at the virtual frame, identifying the information of the cultivation technique through Innate Divine Power - Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, unable to contain his joy.
This Basic Sword Formation Chapter is actually an earth-tier top-grade cultivation technique, that's amazing! And it's the most basic chapter among the twelve chapters of sword array techniques.
We've struck it rich!
Li Mu remembers, after learning a fragmented cultivation technique, by logging in to the panel, he can rely on proficiency to improve the cultivation technique level, automatically completing the subsequent content of the fragmented technique.
Li Mu enthusiastically opened the "Basic Sword Formation Chapter" and began to study it meticulously.
The sword formation, as the name suggests, is a cultivation method of simultaneously controlling multiple flying swords to form an array.
The Basic Sword Formation Chapter records in detail the methods of forming three types of sword formations. The first is the Five Elements Sword Array formed by five flying swords; the second, the Seven-Star Sword Array formed by seven flying swords; and the third, the Circulation Sword Array formed by eighteen flying swords.
From the flying sword attribute requirements, the spiritual power circuit of array formation, the divine sense control requirements, each is listed therein. The difficulties in forming the sword array are twofold: the first is: Spiritual True Essence, the second is: Divine Sense Strength.
When arranging the sword array, there is the function of saving spiritual true essence and divine sense consumption, but simultaneously controlling multiple flying swords while maintaining the sword array consumes a startling amount of true essence and divine sense power.
Moreover, the more flying swords are controlled, the broader the coverage of the sword array, the greater the consumption of spiritual true essence and divine sense power. Of course, accordingly, once the sword array forms, its attack power will also increase with the number of flying swords.
That black-clad hunter cultivator, with only Qi Refining Ninth Layer cultivation, managed to severely injure a Tier Two Demon Bear using just one Five Elements Sword Array, unifying the swords into one, thereby demonstrating the power of a formed sword array.
This sword array technique is very suitable for him; Li Mu cultivates Five Elements Technique, and his true essence spiritual power is much stronger than ordinary cultivators. Plus, the Quenching God Technique has an extremely potent effect on strengthening divine sense; his current divine sense is comparable to a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
The two difficulties in practicing the sword array are not issues for Li Mu.
In the future, relying on farming to improve proficiency, enhancing this sword array cultivation technique level, revealing more sword array contents, Li Mu believes the subsequent power of this sword array will surely flourish in his hands.
Li Mu repeatedly read the "Basic Sword Formation Chapter" several times, memorized the contents, and solemnly stored it in a storage compartment, intending to begin learning this cultivation technique after sorting the spoils.
Li Mu picked up another cultivation technique, a cyan jade scroll.
[Array Jade Scroll]
[Grade: Tier One Spiritual Object]
[Attributes: Spiritual Engraving Cognition Pattern, Divine Sense Reading]
[The jade scroll carved from Jade Spirit Stone records a yellow-tier top-grade array. With divine sense immersion, contents can be viewed (remaining times: three)]
Innate Divine Power - Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits activates, Li Mu sees the attribute information of the jade scroll, frowns slightly, and immerses his divine sense into reading the array legacy recorded in the scroll.
Soon, a vast amount of array-related knowledge floods Li Mu's mind—array pattern knowledge, earth vein knowledge, spirit vein flow, array layout, ..., Spirit Summoning Array, Demon Suppression Array, Illusion Array, ...,
A vast amount of array knowledge pours into his mind instantly, even more complex than the Thousand Mechanism Puppet Technique. Li Mu's brain aches faintly, but he barely withstands it with a strong divine sense.
Approximately half a quarter of an hour passes, Li Mu's brain ache ends, and he quickly checks the character attribute column.
[Ding, you have successfully received the "Dragon Elephant Eighteen Array" legacy, you have learned Array Formation Technique, Pulse Diagnosis Technique.]
Indeed, in the character attribute column, skills related to arrays appear.
Having learned array knowledge, Li Mu can now confirm that the spirit vein path of Little Liang Mountain, with a hidden spirit vein nearby.
Xu Lijin's reason for having him activate the Gravity Array continuously for three months was to draw over the hidden spirit vein, upgrading several acres of spirit field to intermediate spirit fields.
Injuring others ultimately injures oneself, Xu Lijin lured the bear demon to harm him, which in the end led to Xu's own demise—he had it coming.
Understanding this, Li Mu felt at ease regarding his revenge actions and counting the spoils.
Simultaneously, Li Mu felt the power of array cultivators, able to leverage the momentum of earth veins, the force of spirit veins, to arrange a Demon Suppression Array capable of subduing Tier Two Demon Beasts.
Next time when harvesting Wind Spirit Grass, the acquired proficiency must be used to improve Array Formation Technique. Then, setting up a few arrays on Little Liang Mountain would prevent sudden demon beast attacks.
Thinking of these, Li Mu couldn't help but smile, feeling great as he continued to count the spoils.
Next, another cultivation technique book appeared, known as "Essentials of Artifact Refining," one of the Hundred Cultivation Arts except Talisman Making.
Besides talisman making, Li Mu plans to study the art of artifact refining, especially after learning sword formation which greatly increases the demand for Spirit Swords, refining them by himself would be more convenient.
Arranging the Five Elements Sword Array requires five Spirit Swords of the same tier but different elements, the Seven-Star Sword Array requires seven Spirit Swords of the same tier and attribute, and considering future sword arrays, the demand for Spirit Swords is significant.
This "Essentials of Artifact Refining" comes at the perfect time.
Li Mu hurriedly opened the "Essentials of Artifact Refining" to examine the knowledge related to artifact refining.
Unlike puppet crafting, refining spiritual artifacts primarily focuses on the forging of the artifact embryo where an 'artifact base' is condensed, and an 'artifact pattern' is gathered in the base's grid, ...
"Essentials of Artifact Refining" introduces eighteen types of basic artifact patterns, including Solid, Sharp, Spirit Taming, Spirit Capacity, Lesser Yang, Golden Sharp, Wood Essence, Ice, ...
These eighteen basic patterns encompass the five elements, yin-yang, spiritual characteristics, ... and other attributes of spiritual artifacts.
Besides the introduction of patterns, "Essentials of Artifact Refining" gives a brief overview of various spirit ore attributes involved in spiritual artifact crafting, principles of mutual restraint and generation, and high-tier spiritual artifact classification, spiritual artifact level, ... numerous refining knowledge.
During spiritual artifact refining, condensing one pattern on the embryo forms a tier one lower grade spiritual artifact; two patterns form a tier one middle grade spiritual artifact; three patterns form a tier one high-grade spiritual artifact; four patterns form a tier one top-grade spiritual artifact; five patterns form a tier two lower grade spiritual artifact; ... and so it progresses, ...
After reaching level four, spiritual artifacts have associated advancement knowledge like artifact arrays and artifact spirits, but "Essentials of Artifact Refining" provides only a rough introduction without deeper refining knowledge.
Having perused "Essentials of Artifact Refining," Li Mu immediately gained a clear understanding of the path of artifact refining.
Li Mu took out the Profound Iron Sword from the storage compartment, penetrated divine sense, and 'recognized' Profound Iron Sword's simple artifact base immediately, only possessing one pattern: Spirit Taming.
Li Mu surmises why he always felt the Profound Iron Sword was too 'fragile', seemingly ready to dismantle at any moment, unsuitable for major usage, revealing it doesn't employ the 'Solid' pattern representing sturdiness but rather a 'Spirit Taming' pattern making it easier to accommodate spiritual power.
"What a trash sword, must have been refined by an artifact refining apprentice!" Li Mu tossed the Profound Iron Sword onto the table, deciding not to use this sword, which seems ready to fall apart at any moment.
Li Mu then opened another storage bag and found books introducing demon beasts, spirit grasses, and beast taming knowledge.
...
After spending an hour, Li Mu finished counting the spoils. This unexpected harvest not only fattened his wallet but more importantly, Li Mu gained a wealth of valuable knowledge far surpassing the importance of Spirit Stones and Spiritual Artifacts.
