Chapter 97: The Two Forms Formation

  Today's second update~~~~~

  Zhang Chong found that when his divine consciousness began to attack the divine consciousness within the Lianlian Golden Ring, the masked people conjured by these war god puppets all stood quietly in the great array, no longer moving.

  This change really excited him, and from then on, he didn't stop the attack, but instead devoted himself wholeheartedly to it.

  Although with his speed, it would take a long time to control the Linglong Golden Ring, Zhang Chong didn't mind. At least this state was not dangerous and he was still making progress.

  Then Zhang Chong devoted himself to the fiery and intense practice of the Soul Refining Technique.

  Everyone in the formation also heard the good news from Zhang Chong at this time, which made them let out a sigh of relief and not think about anything else.

  Watching Zhang Chong wipe away his heart's godspeed, roughly estimated, it would also take more than a year. So they just stayed in this great hall. Fortunately, the great hall was big enough to allow them to cultivate and pass the boring time here.

  Of course, more than a year's time is not difficult for cultivators to pass. Moreover, Zhang Chong has been providing White Yang Dan continuously. After this period of cultivation, Zhang Chong can now supply White Yang Dan to everyone every day. These elixirs directly provided great help to everyone's cultivation. The combination attack formation can play an unimaginable role in battle. This also made everyone extremely interested in the combination attack formation.

  Everyone summed up the previous battle with the masked man, if Lin Hai and the eight immortals of Huashan and Yunwu could master the Heaven and Earth Three Talents Formation, the course of the battle would not have been so tragic.

  Thinking of this, they began to practice the joint attack formation. And Luodan also reduced a lot of friction with them because of this battle, and Zhang Chong didn't hide it either, teaching her the training method and experience of the Heaven and Earth Three Talents Formation.

  His thoughts were also very clear. What kind of ancient city this was, and what kind of changes would happen next, no one knew. Before encountering these things, the stronger their strength, the more beneficial it would be for them.

  Moreover, this doesn't require Zhang Chong to waste any crystal stones, it's just a simple task. As for asking Luo Mudan for compensation, Zhang Chong had thought about it, but looking at the situation, Luo Mudan has already been squeezed dry by Bai Yangdan, so even if he asks for compensation, he probably won't get much. Thinking of this, Zhang Chong was happy to do a favor and helped out with a smile.

  More than a month has passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, there was another piece of good news that left everyone excited beyond measure.

  Bai Li and Wang Mingyang, the two of them, surprisingly woke up one after another. After waking up, they also understood the current situation, and their hearts were greatly settled at that moment. Bai Li was even more surprised to discover that not only had he woken up, but through the previous fierce battle, his strength had finally broken through the previous shackles, reaching the fourth stage of the Golden Dan level in one go. This feeling was something he had never experienced before. The fourth stage of the Golden Dan level, this was his long-held wish for many years, yet he had not been able to achieve it no matter how hard he tried. Now that he had achieved it, he felt that his heart had become even more calm and steady.

  "Follow the trend and do it..." Bai Li muttered to himself. This is what he has recently come to realize, and it is even more obvious on Zhang Chong's body. As a fairly capable loose cultivator, he has also seen some outstanding disciples from major sects such as Shu Mountain and Qingcheng. They too possessed great strength during the Condensing Pulse stage, with exceptional magical artifacts and astonishing innate talents. However, they also had an air of natural superiority about them, as if everything in the world was prepared for them, and that they could take whatever they wanted. This gave him a very uncomfortable feeling.

  While on the equally talented Zhang Chong, he felt many mysterious places of this young man, and his various skills also repeatedly rescued them from danger, even if he did these things, he didn't see him taking credit for himself, but instead remained a ordinary appearance. This calm and elegant demeanor made him feel admired and understood many things.

  "Where your heart is, that's where your treasure will be. The path of cultivation is also a journey of cultivating the mind. If you're always competing and comparing, not to mention thinking that one mountain is higher than another, then this mindset is also under the influence of greed and impatience, and there's no way to achieve a calm state." Bai Li thought to himself.

  After Bai Li woke up and turned around, he and Lan Ningxue specialized in another formation method. This was a combination of the Heaven, Earth, and Human Trigrams Formation that Zhang Chongwu had created after understanding the way of array deployment, named the "Two Instruments Formation".

  This formation emphasizes the mutual coordination of two people, which is called the birth of Taiji from Wuji, and the birth of Two Instruments from Taiji. It implies the harmony of Yin and Yang, with one person taking the lead to launch a fierce attack, aiming for a big opening and combination. However, in the midst of the attack, there are always some weaknesses left behind, which can be quickly covered by the other person standing beside them.

  This formation requires an extremely high level of tacit understanding between the two people, as the Two Instruments Formation is a cooperative attacking formation dominated by the attacker. Once they launch their attack, the other person must instantly cover up any weaknesses according to the different situations and environments.

  Bai Li and Lan Ningxue were originally a married couple, deeply in love with each other, so there was no problem on this point. Also because of this, they had the same mind and intention in this formation, and it was extremely easy for them to become familiar with each other.

  Looking at the two of them in mid-air, like two celestial beings, their bodies constantly shifting and turning, their eyes flowing with a brilliant light. The black and white sword energies, in the sky, transformed into beautiful sword lights, this scene, made everyone gaze at them with envy.

  That day, Wang Jihan came to look for Zhang Chong and said to him:

  "Zhang brother, there's something I need your help with."

  "Oh, what's up? If I can help, it's no problem." Zhang Chong readily agreed. Seeing Zhang Chong's extremely pleased expression, Wang Jihan explained his intention. It turned out that he wanted Zhang Chong to come up with a suitable formation for Lin Hai's Eight Immortals.

  "We eight immortals of Lin Hai are connected by a common thread, with extremely good feelings towards each other. If there's a set of combination attack formations, we can naturally bring it out very smoothly." Wang Jihan chuckled and said.

  "Alright, let me think for a moment." Zhang Chong said, and then he split out a wisp of his divine sense to enter the Xuanji Ring, where he found Yue and began to discuss with him.

  "The more people in the formation, the more complex it becomes. This eight-person formation is not as good as the Bagua Formation, I think it's better to teach them that instead." Yue Youyou said.

  Two Forms give birth to Four Symbols, Four Symbols give birth to Eight Trigrams.

  The Bagua formation, also originated from Taiji, Qian is the sky, as the ultimate yang, Kun is the earth, as the ultimate yin. In the Bagua formation, there are at least 64 changes, and up to 382 changes. Yin and Yang combine, ring by ring, life after life.

  Zhang Chong told Lin Hai and the Eight Immortals about these changes, and after they heard them, they immediately started practicing with great enthusiasm. For a time, in the great hall, figures were flying about, voices were ringing out, and from time to time, the voices of the eight immortals could be heard.

  "Third brother, your spear is the power of utmost yang, you must speed up a bit more!!!"

  "Lao Liu, your chess pieces are scattered all over the place, they've already flown out of the formation by a whole zhang!"

  "I don't have..."

  "Big brother, quickly unleash your Big Handprint Seal~~~"

  "Oh no, Lao Ba, what are you doing here? We bumped into each other!"

  "Did you take a wrong turn?"

  The eight immortals of Lin Hai, in that area, day and night, were cultivating, their area, there was no more quiet time, and all other people, also absolutely did not step into that area half a step.

  Until the end, Zhang Zhongyi really couldn't bear it anymore, and he collected some materials, set up several clear sound arrays, and his ears were much clearer. And in his daily life, apart from the technique of wiping out gods, it was also the matter of refining Baiyang Dan.

  Months later, Zhang Chong was refining the Baidu Pill when he suddenly felt a flash of light on the Xuanji Ring, which meant that Yue was calling him. As soon as he saw this scene, he quickly scanned his mind into the Xuanji Ring.

  "What's wrong?" Zhang Chong asked.

  "It's nothing much, that Wang Dao is almost about to succeed in cultivating the Condensing Spirit Technique." Yue said lazily.
