Chapter 201 – Bad
Chess s were the most important tools for array masters to delve into the mysteries of formations and deduce the evolution of formations. Almost every array master wished to have a Go board to study and deduce the evolution of formations.
However, it was extrely difficult to obtain a set of Chess. Even without considering the fact that Chess were extrely difficult to refine, just the spirit materials used to refine the Chess were enough to cause 90% of formation masters to be discouraged.
In order to be able to bear as much as possible of the array formation within the Chess, he would need at least forty-nine types of low grade spirit materials. Moreover, these forty-nine spirit materials were all specific and extrely difficult to find, not to ntion that during the refining process, he would also need to perfectly fuse all of these spirit materials with different attributes. Thus, Chess who were able to refine the lowest level spirit tools would often need a master refiner.
In the cultivation world, Chess could be divided into three levels, and the lowest level of Chess could naturally be classified into magic tools. The lowest level of magic tools, the Chess s, could only deduce forty-nine arrays, and the middle level magic tools, Chess s, could deduce sixty-four different kinds of Chess, which made it possible for High quality magical equipno deduce eighty-one different kinds of Chess.
However, no matter how many formationigh or low level Chess could deduce, they could only deduce one kind of spirit formation.
Above the spirit artifact rank Chess were spirit artifact rank Chess s. Spirit artifact rank formations were naturally used to deduce spirit array rank formations, and it was the sa as a spirit artifact rank array. The number of spirit arrays that a middle or low tier spirit artifact Chess could deduce was also different, however, they could only deduce one spirit artifact from a treasure array.
On the sa principle, there were also treasure Chess s. While using them to deduce different kinds of treasures, one could also deduce the legendary Dao Arrays. However, these only existed in legends.
Yang Junshan found out from the inheritance of the formation left behind by Yin Zhanming, that there was a set of Spirit Treasure level Chess s in the Heaven-Shaken Sect. Back then, as the genius of the formation techniques in the Heaven-Shaken Sect, Yin Zhanming had the qualifications to use this set of Cheso deduce the formation, and also used this set of Spirit Treasure level Chess s to deduce the feasibility of raising the great formation to the most precious formation, the Primary Magnetic Treasure level formation.
However, in the end, it was because the Heaven-Shaken Sect had never taught him the inheritance of the magnetic precious technique before he advanced to the realms of life, and under the situation where he himself had no hope of advancing to the realms of life, Yin Chengming’s obsession with formations made him choose to take the risk in the end, failing to steal the inheritance of the magnetic precious technique, and ultimately dying.
Before an array master laid down an array formation, they would have to adjust the array formation according to the local conditions, without changing the array formation’s foundation. Before an array master laid down an array formation, they would have to adjust the array formation according to the local conditions, without changing the array formation’s foundation.
Aesult, before a formation master actually set up a formation, they would spend a large amount of ti revising and deducing the formation.
Originally, for the Xishan Village’s village protection formation, if Yang Junshan wanted to finish setting up the great array, he would need a large amount of ti to deduce the formation. If that was really the case, then even if he prepared sufficient various resources, it would be impossible for Yang Junshan to finish setting up the great array’s outline in just a year.
Fortunately, the Xishan Village’s terrain was extrely similar to the Jinyu County’s Magnetic Birth Mountain. Not only did Yang Junshan once see the clan protecting array diagram of the Changsun Family’s magnetic mountain, he had also carefully studied the array disc and the densely packed runes carved on the walls of the mountain. This allowed Yang Junshan to skip the process of deducing the array almost without expending much energy, and directly enter the process of arranging the array.
Although the set of Chess that Xiong Xizhe had taken out was only a low rank magical equipnt, and could at most deduce forty-nine different types of array formations, as an array master, it would be impossible for him to not be envious if he saw a set of Chess placed in front of him. However, Yang Junshan could conclude that this set of Chess was considered to be the only treasure even if it was in the top of the three powerful Xiong Family, and it would not even be an exaggeration to say that it was a family heirloom.
Now, sucreasure actually appeared on the body of Xiong Xizhe, a cultivator who had just entered the martial arts realm. If it wasn’t for him secretly taking it out, it would only an that the Xiong Family attached great importance to the young array master’s cultivation. If Yang Junshan dared to have any thoughts on cultivating this treasure, the Xiong Family would probably be able to turn over half of the ngyu County in the other direction.
Array masters were rarely seen, so sparring between array masters was naturally more eye-catching. Furthermore, with the extrely rare thod of Chess s, when array discs were placed, all the Martial Realm Cultivator in the rear hall would surround them while Yang Junshan would go first.
“Hold on!”
Just as Yang Junshan was about to activate the cloth, Xiong Xiying suddenly shouted out, causing him to frown. Even Xiong Xizhe who was at the opposite side spoke up in displeasure: “Big brother, the Chess is about to be activated, we shouldn’t let anyone interrupt them! If Taoist Yang falls, then no one can talk anymore.”
Xiong Xizhe was previously stiff and clumsy, and started blushing the mont he said sothing, but now that the array formation had been set down, his entire deanor changed. Even Xiong Xiying who was by the side dared to reprimand him.
Xiong Xiying was indeed startled, a look of displeasure flashed past her eyes, and then she laughed: “Third brother, don’t be angry, the Chess has yet to open, big brother only has a suggestion, I have previously saw you using the Chess, and it took a long ti, and we won’t be able to understand the array, so it’s hard to not be annoyed. Before this, I think we should place so bets, and increase the fun of it, right?”
“This is a very good suggestion!”
Without waiting for the two chess players to agree, Shi Jingxuan, who was on the other side, imdiately responded, “I think not only can we place our bets, Brother Zhe and Brother Yang can also bet on sothing, this way, our competitive spirit will be strong, and we can all enjoy ourselves by the side.”
Xiong Xiying “Hehe” laughed, and said. “I bet three hundred Jade Coins that Third Brother would win.”
Three hundred Jade Coins, from Yang Junshan’s perspective today, wasn’t considered a large sum, but in the eyes of the other Martial Realm Cultivator, this was definitely a large sum of money.
Shi Jingxuan also said: “Brother Yang has been improving in martial arts realm for a long ti, and also has the battle achievents of Fei Xiu the Confining Sky Wolf, but Brother Zhe is also from a similar family, so I also think highly of you, but I am not as generous as Brother Xi Ying, I can only bet on a hundred Jade Coins, and also bet on Brother Zhe’s victory.”
The one whom Xiong Xiying called “Fifth Uncle”, Xiong Mankun, said: “Both of you think highly of Zhe’er, but I hope little brother Yang can let him know that there is soone else in the world. However, I don’t have many Jade Coins here, and only pressure little brother Yang with 50 units.”
Xiong Xiying laughed: “Fifth Uncle, you are trying to force your way out!”
Yang Junshan looked at the three people in front of him acting in amusent, only to hear a cold snort. Blacksmith Zhang suddenly stood up and threw the hundred Jade Coins to Yang Junshan’s side.
Xiong Xiying and a few others stopped smiling as they watched Blacksmith Zhang walk back with calm expressions. It was as if Blacksmith Zhang’s victory over Yang Junshan was within their expectations.
At this ti, Yang Junshan suddenly understood. Although Xiong Family and the rest seed to encourage others to bet when the Chess was opened, in reality, they seed to be forcing the people of Xishan Village to join the team.
However, this thod was too clumsy and petty. Yang Junshan didn’t feel that this was sothing done by soone as overbearing as the Xiong Family, but instead, it seed like the young n of the Xiong Family in front of him were ssing around.
The Blacksmith Zhang didn’t hesitate to place the Jade Coins at Yang Junshan’s side, obviously it was also within their expectations. But then, Xu Sanniang giggled at the three of them, and at the sa ti, placed a hundred Jade Coins at Yang Junshan’s side. Even though Xiong Mankun also had an indifferent expression on his face, Xiong Xiying and Shi Jingxuan, the two youths’ faces inevitably revealed a trace of disappointnt.
The Xu family was originally a mber of the Yu clan, and when Xu Erchen left the branch family, no matter how one looked at it, there was always Mada Yang and his son supporting them. Now, the Yang family had risen greatly in the Xishan Village, and even the position of the number one clan in the Xishan Village could not be protected, who would have thought that she would still stand on the Yang family’s side.
However, when the two of them looked at the following two people, their gazes inevitably carried a trace of hope.
Li Shaoqun was obviously in a difficult situation now, but under the gazes of many people, he still had to make a choice, but after he made his decision, the hopeful Xiong Xiying and Shi Jingxuan could no longer hide the disappointnt on their faces.
Li Shaoqun, who was in the early stage of martial arts realm, also cast fifty Jade Coins on Yang Junshan’s side. In the end, he chose to stand on the Yang Family’s side.
“I know nothing about formations. Everyone please enjoy the exchange of pointers between the two heroic youths. I will first go to the front courtyard to thank the Fellow Daoists who ca to participate in the banquet!”
If Li Shaoqun’s choice still made Shi Jingxuan a little disappointed, then the excuse Shi Nansheng ca up with was already making him angry!
As Shi Jingxuan’s uncle, he thought that Shi Nansheng should have been standing right next to him. Even if he knew that his uncle was against him going against the Yang family, he should support him clearly. In fact, Shi Jingxuan wanted to force his uncle to reveal his position this ti.
Although it looked like he did not want to offend either, in reality, from Shi Jingxuan’s perspective, his uncle was telling everyone that he was standing on the Yang Family’s side.
This traitor is even more hateful than Yang Tiangang who snatched the position of Village Head from his father. Once I beco the Shi Family Patriarch in the future, I will definitely not let you off!
An uncontrollable thought popped out of Shi Jingxuan’s mind, and his gaze towards his uncle imdiately flashed fiercely.
“Fellow Daoist Xiong, are you planning to make a bet as well?” Yang Junshan asked with a smile.
Xiong Xizhe nodded, and said: “That’s right, the reason I ca to the Xishan Village this ti was because I heard that when you laid down the village protection formation’s inner array, you actually used the Immovable Mountains array. I want to bet on the inheritance of this array.”
