Half a month later, Long Xuan returned to Great Stone Village and stepped back into his long-lost small ho.
Upon returning, he did not rest imdiately. Instead, he prepared to plant the Millennium Iceberg Snow Lotus without delay.
This matter could not be postponed, as the longer it was delayed, the greater the risk of the Millennium Iceberg Snow Lotus dying. After leaving the Great Snow Mountain, it had already left its suitable growing environnt.
As for where to plant it, Long Xuan had already decided on the way. The original owner’s parents, who had passed away early, were farrs and had a piece of farmland.
Because both parents had died, that land had long been neglected. He could use it directly since it was entirely his private property, and using it was legal.
At that ti, by arranging Master Jin's formation around that piece of farmland, it would ensure complete safety.
Moreover, the land was not far from his ho, making it convenient for him to go back and forth. At worst, he could send a clone to guard it.
So, after returning ho and quickly organizing his supplies, he rushed to the piece of land without stopping.
Through the absorbed knowledge from his clone, he was now considered a semi-skilled formation master. Setting up a formation with all the materials already prepared was not very difficult.
Upon reaching the farmland, he began attempting to set up the formation. This was his first ti setting up a formation in his life, and he was full of enthusiasm because of the novelty.
In this world, formations consist of three parts: the formation base, the formation core, and the formation key. To create a formation diagram, these three components are indispensable.
The formation base is the foundation of a large formation, akin to its skeleton, and it is also the core area for engraving formation patterns.
Therefore, the more solid the formation base, the better. It can be made of any material but must et two requirents: sturdiness and the ability to contain spiritual power, usually made of rare tals.
Formation masters will engrave the formation patterns on several hard tal materials and then bury them in different locations according to the requirents of the formation diagram. The burial locations are strictly regulated.
Once the formation base is arranged, all the bases will interconnect and mobilize the spiritual power of heaven and earth to operate automatically, thereby utilizing the power of heaven and earth to produce various miraculous effects.
The scope of influence of a large formation is directly proportional to the number of formation bases, making the cost of a large formation extrely high.
Especially for a protective mountain formation that guards a clan’s residence, the expensive materials required make the cost astronomical.
If the formation base is the foundation of a large formation, then the formation core is its heart.
The formation core's function is to manage the operation of a formation, acting as its central nervous system and the most critical area.
Usually, a large number of spirit stones are arranged near the formation core, making it the energy source for the entire formation.
Therefore, a high-energy treasure is often placed at the formation core, known as the core-pressing treasure, to enhance the formation’s operational power.
The treasure can be of any kind, but its level should not be too low. The more powerful the treasure, the better, especially if it has special powers that can further enhance the formation's potency.
For example, the Divine ice Fla, which can release cold energy, could serve as the core-pressing treasure. The formation base and the Divine ice Fla can complent each other.
By engraving nurous amplifying formation patterns on the formation base, the power of the Divine ice Fla can be greatly enhanced, thus creating a killing formation that releases deadly cold flas.
The core-pressing treasures are not limited to various treasures but can also include earth veins, dragon veins, spirit stone mines, or large spiritual mountains.
These elents are even more terrifying. If a formation core is made up of such elents, the formation becos impregnable. Without a force capable of shaking the heavens and earth, it is impossible to move the formation by brute force.
Such formations can even invoke heavenly might, harnessing the power of heaven and earth, and the power of the sun, moon, and stars. They have nurous deadly moves and enormous destructive power. Entering such a formation often ans near-certain death.
The formation core is usually at the center of the formation but can also be placed off-center or even have multiple cores, depending on the formation master's preference.
However, because the formation core is so crucial, it also becos the weak point of all formations. Destroying the formation core will stop almost all formations from operating.
The formation key is the key to freely entering and exiting the formation. The holder of the formation key will not be attacked by the formation and is owned by the formation’s master to avoid being hard by their own formation.
Additionally, the formation key serves as the controller of a formation, with all its functions operated through the key.
If the formation master wants to activate any killing moves, they must use the formation key to issue commands.
Therefore, the formation key is indispensable and must not be lost. Losing it would make controlling a complex formation extrely troubleso.
These are the three components of a formation. To create a formation diagram, these three parts are essential.
However, there is a type of formation in this world that does not require these three components, known as a mobile formation or formation plate.
The downside of traditional formations is that they are fixed in place, requiring significant ti to set up and cannot be carried around or used in battle.
But the formation plate perfectly solves this problem. Formation masters can concentrate all parts of a formation onto a formation plate, which can take any form but is often a flag, also called a formation flag.
The formation flag is small, can be placed in a storage bag and carried around, and the formation can be set up by simply planting the flag into the ground, completing the setup in a second.
However, anyone can foresee the disadvantage of this form of formation: its power is bound to be very weak, far inferior to the extensive protective mountain formations.
Long Xuan had long morized this basic formation knowledge. As for what to use as the core-pressing treasure, it would undoubtedly be the Divine ice Fla, as the Millennium iceberg Snow Lotus could not survive without it.
So, in the farmland, he buried various formation bases, primarily to amplify the power of the Divine ice Fla, thereby completing the killing formation.
Anyone triggering the killing formation would be bombarded by countless cold flas.
The power of the Divine ice Fla was already terrifying, and with the formation further amplifying its power, Long Xuan could hardly imagine how powerful it could beco.
If a spiritual sea stage Gu cultivator triggered the killing formation, the outco would be uncertain, but if a marrow cleansing stage Gu cultivator did, their chances of survival would be slim.
Even with the formation base being quite rudintary, once he creates a formation base with patterns a hundred tis smaller, he could plant anything in his dicine garden.
After two days of work, Long Xuan finally completed the formation and nad it the Great Ice Formation.
The Millennium iceberg Snow Lotus was planted next to the formation core, which was also near the Divine ice Fla, standing alone as the only plant in the entire dicine garden.
The cold energy of the Divine ice Fla was much colder than the middle region of the Great Snow Mountain. In this colder environnt, the iceberg Snow Lotus not only did not feel uncomfortable but thrived even more.
It seed that the region with the Ice Divine Fla was the most suitable environnt for the iceberg Snow Lotus to grow.
This made things much easier. Since the Iceberg Snow Lotus liked the environnt of the Divine ice Fla so much, Long Xuan could consider mass-planting iceberg Snow Lotuses, becoming the only person in the Gu world to master their artificial cultivation.
Rarity increases value. He could make a fortune from this, and Long Xuan smiled with satisfaction.
The next urgent task was to transplant a large number of flower-type spiritual herbs into this dicine garden. Having enough of these herbs would also help move the spirit bees here.
With only one spiritual herb in such a large dicine garden, it seed too sparse...
