Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming Chapter 1642 - 626: The Choice of the Mountain Protection Ar

Facing such a powerful opponent, he absolutely dared not be careless in the slightest.

After listening to his analysis, Zhou Chun first nodded, then asked, "In your opinion, which formation should be set up in this place?"

Upon hearing this, Gongsun Yuanji looked up at Zhou Chun, then lowered his head, and in a deep tone slowly expressed his opinion.

"According to my sister, if Senior Zhou can find nine fourth-order Stoneheart Woods and transplant them to the nine spiritual energy nodes in the mountain as the foundation, then use materials like Earth Origin Crystal Jade, Wutu Profound Stone, and Hundred-Year Brass to refine three formation platforms, supplented by fourth-order top-grade Spirit Wood, fourth-order Spirit Silk, and Yimu Essence to craft a Main Array Flag, we can set up our Gongsun Clan’s secret formation, the Wood and Stone Locking Spirit Array!"

"This Wood and Stone Locking Spirit Array cycles the energies of wood and earth. Besides having powerful defensive and enemy-trapping effects, it can also lock Spirit Veins and stabilize Earth Veins, making many techniques aid at shaking Spirit Veins and Earth Veins difficult to perform. Moreover, it can regulate the climate and spiritual energy distribution within the mountain gate, with wondrous uses beyond compare!"

After these words, Zhou Chun’s expression changed slightly and he didn’t speak for a long ti.

Honestly speaking, even though he knew in advance that setting up the Mountain Protection Array wouldn’t be easy, Zhou Chun didn’t expect it to be this troubleso.

Indeed, the Wood and Stone Locking Spirit Array ntioned by Gongsun Yuanji is extraordinary and far surpasses the Forbidden Formation, Nine Palaces Yellow Dragon Formation that the Zhou Family once used to guard Tuyun Ridge, in terms of mystery.

If such a formation could really be set up, even a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator would find it hard to easily break it.

But where could Zhou Chun find the materials for setting up such a formation!

Stoneheart Wood itself is a relatively rare Spirit Wood, and fourth-order Stoneheart Wood must grow for at least a thousand years in places rich with spiritual energy.

Even so,

Zhou Chun could probably gather one or two fourth-order Stoneheart Woods if he is willing to part with so treasures.

But to have him transplant nine fourth-order Stoneheart Woods is too much to ask!

Unless a secret realm cave is found where Stoneheart Woods grow abundantly, where else could he find so many fourth-order Stoneheart Woods?

Hence, after remaining silent for a long ti, Zhou Chun slightly shook his head and said, "As for the other materials, Zhou Mou could obtain them without much difficulty, but the quantity of nine Stoneheart Woods is simply too much. Even if I could offer sothing of equal exchange value, I wouldn’t know where to find these Spirit Woods!"

He then looked at Gongsun Yuanji and his sister and asked, "Besides the Wood and Stone Locking Spirit Array, do you have any other alternative plans? Preferably ones that don’t require too much ti to gather materials!"

Upon hearing this, Gongsun Yuanji imdiately responded, "The Wood and Stone Locking Spirit Array is the most suitable formation we have mastered for this place. If we don’t use this formation, the only choices left would be the lesser effective Thousand Layer Forest Sea Formation or the Yimu Panlong Formation!"

"However, to be honest, neither the Thousand Layer Forest Sea Formation nor the Yimu Panlong Formation can form any significant obstacle for a Nascent Soul Stage True Person. The forr can’t even trap a Nascent Soul Stage True Person for a single mont, and the latter, which emphasizes attack, can’t effectively resist a Nascent Soul Stage True Person’s intrusion!"

From Gongsun Yuanji’s words, it was evident that he did not endorse Zhou Chun setting up these two formations.

Whether he felt that using such formations in such a Spirit Mountain Blessed Land as the Green Lotus Mountain Range was sowhat wasteful or because setting up the Wood and Stone Locking Spirit Array would earn him more compensation, Zhou Chun couldn’t say.

But Zhou Chun still imdiately inquired about the related materials needed for the latter two formations.

Clearly, compared to the Wood and Stone Locking Spirit Array, the materials required for either the Thousand Layer Forest Sea Formation or the Yimu Panlong Formation were much easier to find.

If he were to choose these two formations, Zhou Chun was confident he could gather the required materials within three years.

This made him feel quite tempted.

To him, whether the formation could resist a Nascent Soul Stage True Person wasn’t particularly important.

He simply wanted to establish a reasonable formation to get the sect started and begin construction swiftly.

As for the Mountain Protection Array like the Wood and Stone Locking Spirit Array, should he succeed in Transforming Elixir and Forming Infant in the future, he would have plenty of ti to slowly gather the materials needed to set it up.

By then, even Gongsun Xuanlu would undoubtedly not dare refuse his invitation.

However, just when Zhou Chun was about to voice his choice, Gongsun Yuanzhi suddenly spoke up: "If Senior Zhou rely finds it challenging to locate fourth-order Stoneheart Wood, I do know of a place where a large number of Stoneheart Woods must exist. With your cultivation level and strength, you might try to obtain so!"

"Oh, is Gongsun’s friend’s statent true?"

Zhou Chun looked surprised, glancing with astonishnt at this formation prodigy, and promptly inquired, "But may I know the location ntioned by Gongsun’s friend?"

Gongsun Yuanzhi promptly replied, "Senior, for your discernnt, our Gongsun Clan ancestors once sought the news of fourth-order Stoneheart Wood specifically for researching the Wood and Stone Locking Spirit Array. After years of investigation, they learned that in the Wuyang Country near the Far Western Lands, a major power called the Earth Mother Sect controls a Secret Realm abundant in Stoneheart Wood. It’s said that inside there is an expansive Stoneheart Wood forest, possibly containing Myriad Year Stoneheart Wood reaching the fifth order!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun imdiately showed a contemplative expression.
