Su Zishuang looked stunned. If it took two months to successfully become a three-pole formation mage, such a long time would worry Su Zishuang.
Because we were in Yue Waterfall Forest at this time, spending two months learning the formation was too long.
"Can't you just tell me what to do and I'll just start refining it?" Su Zishuang asked.
If only Su Zishuang could directly refine the formation flag with the guidance of You Zhi like before, wouldn't it be enough
"No, the formation flags you refined earlier are all first-level, very simple, and don't require high skills. But if you want to refine the three-pole formation flag, you must have very delicate techniques. Even if I tell you, you can't do it if you don't have enough ability." You's words shattered Su Zishuang's fantasy.
"Then what should we do?" Su Zishuang asked worriedly.
"Under normal circumstances, this forest is very safe as long as you don't leave the trap. You use trees to build two wooden houses, and then food is prepared. You don't have to worry about survival for two months."
You continued: "The most difficult thing is, can you become a three-pole formation mage? If you can't do it, you're dead."
There was determination in Su Zishuang's eyes.
"Don't worry, I will definitely become a three-pole formation mage in two months!" Su Zishuang believed that as long as she was willing to work hard, there would be nothing impossible.
Next, Su Zishuang used the Ice Mark Sword to chop down trees and start building a wooden house. The monks' physical strength was greatly different from that of ordinary people. The cutting power of the Ice Mark Sword was also very powerful, and it was easy to build the wooden house.
So, when Taishu Rou came to his senses, two simple wooden houses appeared in front of him.
"What are you doing?" Tai Shurou's injury was a little better, but when he saw Su Zishuang, he asked in surprise.
"We are in Yue Waterfall Forest and can't get out for a long time, so we have to stay for a while and wait for me to learn the formation for a while before trying to leave this place." Su Zishuang said.
"No problem, I'll do whatever you say." Tai Shurou nodded.
This time was very different from the one in the Flying Dragon Thunder Snake Stream. At that time, Tai Shurou didn't quite believe in Su Zishuang, so she followed Su Zishuang with great anxiety and hesitation.
But now Tai Shurou has absolute trust in Su Zishuang. Even if he enters the well-known forbidden area, he has not lost hope.
Su Zishuang has created miracles before, and it is not impossible to do it again this time.
Tai Shurou entered one of the wooden houses to rest, while Su Zishuang entered another wooden house.
Inside the wooden house, there are tables, chairs and beds woven by Su Zishuang with rattan. Under her skillful hand weaving, they have a unique flavor.
Su Zishuang leaned on the wicker chair and suddenly felt her whole body relax. She didn't expect that in a place that others thought was deserted, it was so peaceful and no one came in to disturb her.
Youze appeared on the bed, lying leisurely on his side, with a comfortable expression on his handsome face.
"It's so comfortable!" You whispered.
"I'm afraid that's not the case. How do I remember that your soul body has no sense of touch." Su Zishuang said lightly.
You's face drooped: "Why can't you just let me indulge myself for a while? Why are you exposing the scars? It's too cruel of you."
Su Zishuang curled her lips: "For an old ghost like you who has lived for millions of years and is as thick-skinned as a city wall, you will have scars? I don't believe it."
In a flash, You appeared next to Su Zishuang. He leaned down and put a handsome and evil face next to Su Zishuang, making a fierce expression.
"Believe it or not, I swallowed you in one gulp?"
Su Zishuang blinked her eyes, stared at You and said, "Come on, I'll let you swallow it."
You sighed and said: "Oh, after all these years, why did I meet a master like you? When others see me, they treat me like a master, but you are the only one who has harmed me like this."
Just when You was feeling sorry for yourself, she heard Su Zishuang say seriously: "I regard you as a true friend."
You looked stunned for a moment, and his pupils gradually became darker.
Su Zishuang's expression reminded him of the boy from thousands of years ago...
He had the same expression back then, the same stubbornness, the same hard work...
It's just a time and space change, and millions of years have passed in the blink of an eye. Where is that boy
You breathed out a breath, feeling an inexplicable warmth in her heart.
"Hmph, I have you as a friend." But on the surface, You still lay down full of anger.
Su Zishuang ignored him. Time was urgent now. She was going to make full use of every moment to practice. She really didn't have much time to argue with You Lai.
With a flip of her palm, Su Zishuang took out a jade box from the ancient beast ring space.
"Has the mark of spiritual consciousness been removed?" Su Zishuang asked in surprise.
You said: "Of course, as soon as I take action, all problems will be solved."
"Empress You, you are so arrogant. I was the one who got rid of you, but you still have the nerve to take credit? You really have an extra layer of skin on your face. You are just a two-skinned person." Suddenly, An's voice sounded mocking.
Su Zishuang raised her head and glanced around, only to see You Huan was completely fine, as if he was not the liar.
"When did it happen? Why did I forget?" You looked around, as if you were not talking about him.
Su Zishuang held her forehead with her palms, feeling completely defeated by You.
Turning her palm over, Su Zishuang raised her hand to open the jade box, and then saw two half-volumes stacked together inside the jade box.
Su Zishuang raised her hand and took out one of the books, her eyes seemed to be dancing with flames of joy.
According to legend, the highest Buddhist scripture, which is said to be an invincible and top-notch scripture that no one has ever seen in the immortal world - the "Now Tathagata Sutra", one of the three major Buddhist scriptures, was lying quietly in his hand.
If others knew about it, not only the powerful people in the world of cultivation, but also the immortals in the fairy world might go crazy for it!
Su Zishuang picked up the scrolls separately and found that the fracture was very smooth, and it did not look like it had been torn off by normal methods.
Then, she connected the broken ends of the two volumes, and an astonishing scene occurred.
The fractures were like mercury, merging together on their own, making the two half-volumes perfectly connected together without any trace at all.
"It's amazing!" Su Zishuang's eyes flashed with strange light.
You opened his mouth and said: "These scriptures themselves are not made of ordinary materials. According to my knowledge, the scriptures themselves should be immortal weapons, but they are sealed by a powerful seal. They look like It’s ordinary silk.”
"How is that possible?" Su Zishuang couldn't believe it.
"If you don't believe it, you can use Huan Miao Lei's flames to calcine it and see." You said.
"I don't dare to burn it. What should I do if it burns out?" Su Zishuang shook her head.
"You question my words? Then you can try to tear it apart and see if you can tear it apart."
Su Zishuang said: "Okay, let me try."
Su Zishuang didn't dare to use Fantasy Thunder Flame to burn it, but it was still possible to tear it apart.
Su Zishuang used very little strength at first, and then her strength increased, but no matter how much strength she used, the scroll would not move at all.
Su Zishuang's eyes flashed with surprise.
With her current strength, she can uproot even a big tree. Even Lu Zhishen pulling up a weeping willow upside down, or Overlord lifting a cauldron, are all weak in front of the immortal cultivators!
But with Su Zishuang's powerful strength, she couldn't shake the scroll even a bit.
Su Zishuang somewhat believed in You's words.
Moreover, she felt that she had miscalculated. Huang Teli and Liu Shanyuan, the two golden elixir monks, could not have torn the scroll apart. The scroll must have been two and a half volumes when they discovered it.
But who tore the book open? Where did the two golden elixir monks Huang Teli and Liu Shanyuan find the "Now Tathagata Sutra"? This made Su Zishuang confused.
In the original book, this issue is not mentioned at all, but there is only a mention of the three supreme Buddhist scriptures. Because the heroine is Nangong Yanxi, the main focus is on the Kunlun School of Taoism.
As for Buddhist cultivators, they are just cannon fodder, so it’s pretty good to mention it even a little bit.
Su Zishuang focused on the scroll.
On the cover are a few words written in a very weird Buddhist style: Now the Tathagata Sutra.
Then Su Zishuang turned to the first page and read it carefully.
After a while, Su Zishuang became dizzy.
There is a large amount of text on the scroll. It is obvious that each word is recognizable separately, but when put together, it is not clear at all!
Su Zishuang felt a chill in her heart.
She never imagined that she would have the "Now Tathagata Sutra" but not understand it at all!
"It feels really bad to have a mountain of treasure in hand but not be able to use it." Su Zishuang let out a deep breath of depression, with a trace of bitterness hanging from the corner of her lips.
"You can't understand it, it's just that you can't understand it. Do you think you can figure out this supreme classic?" The corner of You's lips rose, and there was a hint of smile in his eyes.
"Then what should I do? Why can't I just look at the scroll and not be able to practice?" Su Zishuang said.
"Wait, when the opportunity comes, you will naturally master it. If the opportunity does not come, it means that you have no fate with the "Now Tathagata Sutra". The fate is not enough, and you still want to practice it forcefully, but you can't succeed." Youdan said calmly.
Su Zishuang naturally understands the truth of You's theory. Yuan is a very strange thing and cannot be explained clearly.
Just because you have obtained the "Now Tathagata Sutra" does not mean that you can practice cultivation immediately.
It's just that no matter what the reason is, it can't hide the depression in my heart, but what can I do now.
"Then start teaching me how to practice the formation." Su Zishuang decided to turn her grief into motivation and began to focus on the formation.
Formation and alchemy are equally important, especially when exploring various historical sites, the possibility of encountering formations is almost 100%. Generally, monks who do not know formations can only invite formation masters to accompany them.
If there is no formation master, it may be difficult to move forward.
"If you want to learn formations, you must first learn to draw more accurate patterns. If there are any mistakes or omissions, huge deviations may occur."
"You first need to prepare a piece of paper, and then draw it according to the shape I mentioned." You said.
Su Zishuang took out the pen and paper from the Qiankun bag.
You stretched out your finger and drew a shape on the table.
"As you can see, this is the shape. It usually takes at least three days of hard practice for an array master to master it, but if you want to draw it accurately, you have to accumulate it over many years." You said calmly.
Su Zishuang glanced.
Isn't this a five-pointed star
How to draw a five-pointed star accurately is a piece of cake for Su Zishuang, who has been bombarded by geometry for several years. As long as she follows the geometric principles, she can easily draw it accurately.
This world also has hard pens, and Su Zishuang is using a hard pen now.
Moving her fingers slightly, Su Zishuang soon drew a very standard five-pointed star.
"How is it? Can you still pass the test?" Su Zishuang asked.
The moment You Cong Su Zishuang quickly drew the five-pointed star, he was shocked. The five-pointed star he drew so quickly was more standard than what other formation masters could draw after many years of hard training. Even with his extremely picky eyes, He couldn't find any flaws in it, and he didn't know what to say.
"Can you pass the test?" Su Zishuang asked.
"Well, let's just do it. Then draw the second shape."
In order not to make Su Zishuang proud, You said something with a conscience.
"The second shape is this." You raised his hand and drew it.
Su Zishuang pursed her lips...
Isn't this a perfect circle
It is not easy for ordinary people to draw a perfect circle, but for Su Zishuang, this is just a trivial matter.
Drawing a standard perfect circle, Su Zishuang blinked her eyes and said, "Is this okay?"
You were shocked again. It would take many days for ordinary formation mages, even those with higher talents, to draw a circle, but the one in front of him could draw it easily.
"Have you ever learned formations before?" You asked.
"How could I have learned it? Think about it, how old I am, how could I have learned the formation?" Su Zishuang said.
Youdao: "Okay, it's not bad... next..."
As shapes one after another were drawn out lightly under Su Zishuang's hands, Youyi was a little shocked at first, but later on, he became completely numb.
After the last basic shape was drawn by Su Zishuang, even You had to say seriously: "You are a genius who learns formations, and you are a monster-like genius. It would be a pity if you don't learn formations." , fortunately you met me, your talent will not be buried!"
There was a hint of joy in Su Zishuang's eyes. She didn't expect You to give her such a high evaluation, which surprised her. After all, You had always had a vicious tongue and had never praised her before.
"I originally thought it would take two months to become a Master of the Three-pole Formation, but now you have surpassed my imagination. I estimate that you can become a Master of the Three-pole Formation in half a month at most!" You continued.
Su Zishuang's eyes lit up. It would be great if she could become a three-pole formation mage within three months.
"Teach me how to make alchemy while you have the opportunity."
Su Zishuang got an alchemy notebook from Ye Tong, which contained many records, as well as important knowledge such as the properties and growth locations of various rare elixirs in the world of cultivation.
But the method of alchemy still needs to be taught by You Lai.
"In addition to flames, alchemy also requires extraordinary spiritual consciousness. Only spiritual consciousness that is powerful enough can very accurately control the flames and refine and purify the impurities in various elixirs."
Su Zishuang took out the Seven Star Medicine King Cauldron with a flick of her palm.
With his fingers pinching together, he produced a series of spiritual spells. The seven-star medicine king cauldron, which was originally only as big as a palm, quickly grew in size and turned into an alchemy cauldron half as tall as a man, with a red ray of light emitting from it.
"When refining elixirs, it is better to use glazed green lotus fire. The magical thunder and flames are too violent and difficult for novices to control." You said.
Immediately, Youbian began to teach the basic methods of alchemy.
Then, You said: "I see that there are medicinal materials in your Qiankun bag for refining the healing elixir. This is a first-level elixir. If you can successfully refine it, you will be a first-level alchemist."
"I'll give it a try."
Su Zishuang took out the medicinal materials from the Qiankun bag and began to refine the elixir.
There was a proud smile on You's face.
I thought to myself: It’s time for me to fail well now. I was hit hard by the formation just now, but now I’m refining the alchemy to regain my position.
A novice will most likely fail when refining an alchemy for the first time, unless he is the kind of genius among geniuses who can easily use his divine sense to control it accurately.
But you don't think Su Zishuang is that kind of genius.
A person's ability and talent are always limited. Being talented in one skill does not mean that he has extremely high talent in all skills.
Therefore, You is almost certain that Su Zishuang will definitely fail in refining alchemy.
Su Zishuang started refining alchemy for the first time, and she had memorized the general process, but there was still a big difference between memorizing it and actually practicing it.
In actual practice, Su Zishuang found that she was very uncomfortable, and all kinds of movements and gestures were very jerky.
So it went quite unsmoothly, but fortunately, Su Zishuang's control of the key tempering was extremely skillful and precise, and the same was true for the subsequent pill condensation.
Therefore, after a while, a strong aroma came from the Seven-Star Medicine King Cauldron.
"It's a pill." Su Zishuang said happily.
"You must have failed, but don't worry, failure is normal." When You saw the alchemy was completed, you slipped out a series of words.
"But...but, I seem to have succeeded." Su Zishuang said weakly.
"Oh, don't be joking. I know you are under great psychological pressure and regard failure as failure, but what I want to tell you is that failure is really not terrible." You continued.
Su Zishuang raised her hand and took out more than twenty orange-yellow pills and placed them in front of You.
You's eyes widened, as if you had seen a ghost.
"This...how is this possible? How did you refine it?"
"Didn't you teach me this? Why are you still asking me?" Su Zishuang said depressedly.
"Did you really succeed?" You's eyes twitched, feeling that your brain was running out.
Su Zishuang has succeeded in refining elixir for the first time, which is really beyond your imagination.
"Is it difficult? Why do I think it's easy? Is there something wrong with the elixir?" Su Zishuang asked in surprise.
Very easy…
Youdu wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it. When he first learned alchemy, it took half a month and many failures before he succeeded. Just like that, the alchemy master at that time praised him for his talent.
And what is it called by Su Zishuang? She was able to successfully refine it in less than an hour after learning it. This made other alchemists put their faces.
Yes, it is very possible that there is something wrong with the refined elixir!
You found some psychological comfort for yourself, and then looked at the elixir.
"High-grade rejuvenation pill!"
You let out a surprised cry again.
During the first refining, many of them were of high grade, and at least two were of low grade. In addition to some of the bonus effects of the Seven-Star Medicine King Cauldron, these results were more due to Su Zishuang's precise control of the tempering impurities during the elixir refining process.
"Okay, I have convinced you." You turned into smoke and got into the ancient beast ring and could not come out.
Anyway, everything that needs to be taught has been taught.
If he stayed any longer, You worried that he would die of low self-esteem and depression. He was originally a genius, but now that he met a genius among geniuses, how could he not feel ashamed
Su Zishuang breathed a sigh of relief.
You was shocked because he didn't understand the truth, but Su Zishuang was able to clearly realize that she was not as talented as You imagined.
In the formation, Su Zishuang can draw various basic shapes. This is because of her good geometric foundation, and the alchemy can be successful the first time, thanks to the fact that after the fusion of two souls, the power of the soul itself is different from ordinary people. There are also some unique features of the Seven-Star Medicine King Cauldron.
Therefore, if you want to truly climb, you still need to study hard.
Next, Su Zishuang was eager to learn all kinds of knowledge and make good use of every moment.
The next day, Su Zishuang went over to see Tai Shurou and gave him the rejuvenation pill she had refined.
A low-grade rejuvenation pill is only a first-grade elixir, but a high-grade rejuvenation pill is a second-grade pill. So Su Zishuang can now be regarded as a second-grade alchemist. However, in Yuepu Forest, there is no place to take the test and obtain the alchemist qualification. Just prove it.
Back in her cabin, Su Zishuang suddenly remembered that she had worked hard yesterday to study formations and alchemy, but she had forgotten one thing.
That is an important spiritual object that I obtained in the Red Blood Cave.
The essence of eternal jade!
It is an extremely precious item that can not only change your qualifications, but also improve your cultivation.
However, it is too wasteful to use it purely to improve your cultivation.
As for improving and changing qualifications, it will only be effective if you take it for the first time, and it will no longer work if you take it later.
Su Zishuang just took a little to make her qualifications better.
Because the same thunder spirit root is also divided into different qualities. The spiritual root also has nine levels. The ordinary thunder spirit root can only be regarded as level five, while the heavenly spirit root is level six.
After Su Zishuang takes the essence of ten thousand years of jade, she can upgrade the thunder spirit root from level five to level six, which is almost as powerful as the Tianling root, so this precious opportunity must not be missed.
Su Zishuang took out the ten thousand year jade essence, but the ten thousand year jade essence in her hand was solid, and Su Zishuang could not break it with force.
"How stupid, you have to use a different fire to calcine it, melt it into liquid, put it in a bottle, and then take it." You couldn't help but said. (To be continued
