Cultivation is so scientific

Chapter 159
Li Shiming didn't know what happened on Qixing Island. During his fall, all 36 formation flags had been thrown out.

When his feet touched the ground, he was already in the center of a formation.

With a flick of his finger, six middle-grade spirit stones were sent to the nodes of the formation.

There is no spiritual vein here, and this kind of formation that will be used in battle cannot be supported by the spiritual energy in the void.

As six mid-grade spirit stones were sent into the formation, 36 formation flags disappeared in a flash, and a large formation appeared beside him.

This is the 'Inverted Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation', a formation with astonishing defensive power.

The monks on both sides who knew the formation were startled. This is not a formation board, but a real formation. To set up a formation with formation flags, you need to calculate the variables of the environment by yourself.

As for the complex spiritual power environment created by the two Jindan monks, the formation method Xingguanghai could not calculate the data in a short time. Without data, the formation could not be formed.

Even a senior formation mage could not be as quick as Li Shiming when he deployed the 'upside-down nine palaces and eight trigrams formation' in this environment.

After the rise of the 'Inverted Nine Palaces Bagua Formation', Li Shiming felt much more at ease, at least making him invincible.

After hearing that formations could be used in this operation, he prepared a suitable formation for the battle.

Since there is no shortage of spirit stones in his hands, he has made a lot of array flags. When needed, these array flags can be combined at will, allowing him to arrange most of the arrays.

Of course, these formation flags are all made of first-grade formation materials, and their effects are limited.

But the 'Inverted Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation' arranged by 36 formation flags is definitely not something that a monk in the Qi refining period can break through, unless the opponent uses a talisman.

"Senior Brother He, why don't you come in!" Li Shiming invited He Chuan after setting up the 'Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation'.

"Junior Brother Li invites you, and I will do it!" He Chuan was not polite, he knew the risks of this battle, and he entered the battle in a flash.

Li Shiming looked at Shang Haoquan again. Although he didn't speak, the invitation in his eyes was very obvious.

"Thank you!" Shang Haoquan also did not hesitate at all. This 'Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation' is extraordinary at first glance, and his figure also entered the formation.

In a short time, the battle began.

The battle between the monks does not pay attention to the formation like the army. The main reason is that the movement speed of the monks is too fast, and the movement speed of each monk is different, so that the battle formation will affect some monks who are good at flexible combat. .

So at the beginning of the battle, all the Qi Refining cultivators fought against each other.

The three qi refining monks rushed towards Li Shiming's side. Obviously, the qi refining monks in Beishu also planned to allocate their targets for battle.

Even with the formation, it did not affect the aura of the three Qi refining monks.

"Junior Brother Li, the combat power of these monks is a bit too strong!" He Chuan said softly, frowning slightly.

Being protected by the formation, he had time to observe the battles of other monks.

Almost as soon as they came into contact, the Qi Refining Cultivator on Qizong's side was crushed and beaten.

The Qi-refining cultivators of Northern Shu did not use any special means, they simply used stronger strength to suppress them. In terms of the control of magic weapons and the application of spiritual power, the Qi-refining cultivators of Beishu were stronger.

Not only He Chuan saw it, but also the Jindan elders on Seven Star Island.

"After all, he is a monk from Beishu, and his background is much stronger than ours!" Elder Zhuo of the Demon Spirit Sect shook his head and sighed.

"Bei Shu is so big and populated, not to mention its resource output. It should be stronger than our seven sects, but I didn't expect that their qi refining monks could suppress our carefully cultivated qi refining monks!" Elder Gong smiled wryly. road.

Although the land occupied by the seven sects is called the mainland by the seven sects, in fact this is only what the seven sects themselves said.

According to the cognition of other places, the land occupied by the Seven Sects is called Tianhai Island, yes, it is just a bigger island.

Therefore, except for the high-level officials, the name of Tianhai Island will never be mentioned in the books or maps of the Seven Sects.

This seems to have a feeling of Yelang's arrogance, but it is also a helpless move. Tianhai Island is separated from the mainland by a dangerous ocean, and there is almost no contact.

Even knowing the outside world, it is impossible to leave Tianhai Island.

Don't look at the monks from Beishu coming to Tianhai Island, but if it wasn't for Beishu's inability to survive, who would take the risk to leave the rich land and come to the poor place of Tianhai Island.

And the price paid by the monks of Beishu was not small. Just to explore the way, they lost a golden core sword cultivator, who was also the strongest existence among their golden cores.

And along the way, although Yun Xingyi guided a relatively safe path, he still suffered a lot of losses.

"Fellow Daoist Yin, let all the qi refining monks enter the formation to unite, otherwise they will not be the opponents of the northern Shu qi refining monks at all!" Elder Gong said to Elder Yin.

"Senior brother Yin, the overall situation is the most important thing. Besides, Li Shiming's formation will be difficult to resist when other Qi refining monks fall!" Elder Sheng also reminded softly.

Elder Yin was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Li Shiming mobilized the 'Inverted Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams Formation', and easily blocked the three attacking monks from Beishu Qi Refining.

"Senior brothers, this formation can attack the outside world, you can use spells or magic weapons at will!" He said to the two senior brothers who seemed to be watching a show.

"Is it so cool?" He Chuan's eyes lit up, and a small hammer appeared beside him and flew out.

After the small hammer flew out of the 'Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation', it turned into an illusory sledgehammer and slammed down heavily on a Qi-refining cultivator from Northern Shu.

The Qi Refining Cultivator of Beishu hurriedly dodges. If He Chuan is in front, he has many ways to deal with He Chuan, but He Chuan is in the formation, which makes it difficult for him to fight back.

And this little hammer is still a top-grade magic weapon of excellent quality, and it focuses on power, and every blow has a burst blow of a peak monk.

Shang Haoquan also used his magical weapon, it was a long whip, and it was very rare for monks to hold a long whip, but this long whip was like a spirit snake in his hand, entangled the other two Northern Shu Qi refining monks up.

"Shiming, let the monks of all sects enter the formation to defend against the enemy together!" Elder Yin's deep voice came from Li Shiming's ear.

Li Shiming glanced at the battle situation, some of the Qi-refining cultivators of the Seven Schools had already fallen into a disadvantage in such a short period of time, and the rest were also fighting hard, and none of the Qi-refining monks of the Seven Schools had the upper hand.

"Brothers, enter the formation, and we will fight against the enemy together!" Li Shiming also understood the strength of the Qi-refining monks in Beishu, and said loudly.

At the same time, a sword light flew out from his hand, and the sword light blocked the qi refining monk from Beishu who was fighting with a young monk of the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect, giving the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect monk a chance to escape.

The Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect monk had a chance to break away from the battle. With a loud shout, the copper bowl in his hand flew out and headed towards the nearest battlefield.

Although the Qi-refining cultivators of Northern Shu are powerful, they still cannot face two top cultivators of the same realm at the same time.

The Qi-refining cultivator of Beishu dodged back, avoiding the heavy blow from the monks of the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect.

Instantly revived on the battlefield, these monks of the seven sects had rich combat experience, they did not choose to enter the formation immediately, but helped each other, allowing all the monks of the seven sects to have a short respite.

While resisting the attack of the Qi-refining cultivators of Northern Shu, they retreated into the 'Inverted Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation'.

The only person who had an idea was the Qi Refining monk from the Holy Ice Sect. He was very aware of the conflict between Li Shiming and the Holy Ice Sect, and he knew that Li Shiming took Du Bingyan's place to participate in this battle because he killed Du Bingyan. Competition.

If you hesitate in battle, the result is that you lose the opportunity to enter the battle.

The Qi refining monks of Northern Shu were a little caught off guard by the sudden action of the monks of the Seven Sects. After reacting, they released all their anger on the only monk of the Holy Ice Sect who did not enter the "Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation".

The ice armor and the top-grade defensive magic weapon on the monks of the Holy Ice Sect could not be blocked even for a breath, but they were broken by the combined blow of several Qi-refining monks from Beishu, and their bodies were pierced and killed on the spot.

The magic weapon and storage bag on the monk of the Holy Ice Sect were taken off by a Qi refining monk from Beishu, and he proudly held it in his hand and raised it in a provocative stance.

The elder of the Golden Core of the Holy Ice Sect who was watching the battle had a dull face. He was heartbroken that he had lost a genius monk, and he was also annoyed at the hesitation of this genius monk.

Although the Seven Sects lost one Qi Refining Cultivator on the battlefield, the battle situation began to change in their favor.

The monks of the seven sects in the 'Inverted Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation' can attack the Qi-refining monks of Beishu who are outside the formation at will.

However, the attack of the Qi refining cultivators of Northern Shu was blocked by the "Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation". At least if the "Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation" was not broken, the Qi refining monks of Northern Shu could not attack the monks of the Seven Sects.

"Break!" A Qi refining cultivator from Northern Shu took out a talisman and threw it at the 'Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams Formation'.

Li Shiming sensed the specialness of the talisman, and Jian Guang wanted to intercept the talisman under his control.

But this talisman couldn't be intercepted at all, because it turned into a burst of extremely fast energy the moment it flew out.

The talisman hit the 'Reversing the Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation', and the 'Reversing the Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation' shook for a while.

"Junior Brother Li, it's an array breaking talisman!" He Chuan reminded at this time.

Li Shiming has already sensed that the 'Breaking Formation Talisman' is constantly destroying the spiritual power lines of the 'Reversing Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation', intending to make mistakes in the 'Reversing Jiugong and Bagua Formation', thus paralyzing the formation.

To be honest, if Li Shiming hadn't been in the formation, this 'formation breaking talisman' might really be able to break open the 'upside-down nine palaces and eight trigrams formation'.

The 'Formation Breaking Talisman' is said to be miraculous, but it is actually a means for the formation mage to engrave and seal part of the ability of his formation starlight sea into spiritual objects.

The materials used are much more precious than those used in normal talismans. In addition, the production of the "array-breaking talisman" is also a kind of damage to the formation mage, and it takes a long time to recover, so the more powerful the "array-breaking talisman", the more powerful it is. is rare.

Of course, all the elite monks who participated in the battle this time were elite monks in the Qi refining period, and it was normal to have a powerful 'formation breaking talisman' in their hands.

Li Shiming reckoned that the person who made this 'array breaking talisman' should be a top senior array mage.

His spiritual thoughts quickly swept across the 'Inverted Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation', constantly reconciling the spiritual power in the formation, and the influence caused by the 'Formation Breaking Talisman' was quickly calmed down.

The 'Breaking Formation Talisman' lasted for five seconds, and the 'Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams Formation' could not be broken in five seconds, and the energy inside it was exhausted.

Seeing that the 'Breaking Formation Talisman' was useless, all the Qi-refining monks in Northern Shu changed their faces.

We can't let the monks of the Seven Sects use the 'Inverted Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation' to turn the battle into a war of attrition.

The monks of the seven sects in the 'Inverted Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation' can practice cross-legged and even sleep. In terms of the war of attrition, the monks of Qi refining in Northern Shu will suffer more.

What's more, the monks of the Seven Schools in the 'Inverted Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation' can easily carry out concentrated fire attacks, and multiple monks of the Seven Schools will attack a Qi refining monk of Beishu at the same time.

This made the qi refining cultivator of Beishu a little flustered, and in the end he could only retreat far away from the [-]-meter range of the 'Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation'.

"Thank you, Junior Brother Li!" At this moment, the battle was suspended, and the monks from the Seven Sects had the opportunity to express their gratitude to Li Shiming.

In such a large-scale battle during the Qi refining period, the benefits of a solid formation are obvious.

After expressing their thanks, the monks of the seven sects began to discuss how to deal with the Qi refining monks of Northern Shu.

"The monks in Beishu are very strong individually. If I support one stick of incense one-on-one, I will lose!" the monk of Wanfo Sect said solemnly.

He told the truth without any attempt to hide it.

"The array can only protect us from attack, but it can't let us win!" He Chuan said with a slight frown.

"If you have any means, don't hide it. This battle is about life and death!" Another Qi Refining Cultivator continued.

Li Shiming was observing the two monks of Xuanmingzong at this time. They both carried copper corpses, and they were still top-level copper corpses.

In the confrontation with the Qi-refining monks of Northern Shu, the two monks of Xuanmingzong would be the ones who could last the longest.

They are equal to two to one, occupying a certain number advantage.

Seeing Li Shiming's eyes, the two Xuanmingzong monks thought it was Li Shiming reminding them.

"We can let the copper corpse self-destruct. The power is about as powerful as a blow in the middle stage of foundation establishment, but after the self-destruction, we will also suffer a lot of backlash, and we can retain about [-]% of our combat power at most!" The monk of Xuanmingzong did not hide it. , frankly said his cards.

The two copper corpses blew themselves up at the same time, almost certainly killing several Qi refining monks on the other side.

"However, after the battle is won, we need to obtain a relatively complete corpse on the opposite side!" Another Xuanmingzong monk continued bluntly.

Everyone can understand this point. The bronze corpse of Xuanmingzong is an important combat power of Xuanmingzong monks, and its raw material corpses are too difficult to obtain.

For the Tianlinggen alone, it is almost like competing with various sects for the top seedlings of cultivating immortals.

Li Shiming was taken aback. He didn't expect that his unintentional observation would lead to misunderstandings by monks of Xuanmingzong.

He underestimated his own influence. On the battlefield at this time, the 'Inverted Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation' is equivalent to saving all the seven qi refining monks. At least at this time, the seven qi refining monks will listen to his opinion.
