"yes!"
President Zheng nodded: "This formation diagram was left by a five-star formation mage when the guild was first built. Otherwise, if a four-star level guild wants a fifth-level formation diagram, it needs to apply to the headquarters in advance, and it may not be possible. get!"
The formation diagram of the formation master is the same as the alchemy recipe of the alchemist. What level is mastered? If the strength is not reached, contacting it too early will only harm yourself.
Therefore, the headquarters has clearly stipulated that a four-star branch such as Honghai City can only save a maximum of four-level formations. Higher-level formations need to be applied in advance and cost a certain amount of money to complete.
Moreover, what you get is only the simplest level five. If it is too advanced, you can only learn it if you enter a higher-level branch.
Even the formation diagram is so troublesome, let alone the formation base and formation flag.
"Do we still need to go to a higher level Array Master Guild?"
Do you want to be so cheating
After working on it for a long time, there is no formation diagram and formation base, so we can’t lay it out empty-handed!
The higher the level of the formation, the more powerful it is, and the greater the requirements for these two things. No matter the material or the refining method, there are rigid requirements... It is impossible to become a spirit gathering formation and then go to the Weapon Refiner Guild to learn refining. Tool!
Not to mention wasting time, Honghai City's Weapon Refiner Guild must be like this formation guild. It does not exceed four stars. Even if it learns, it may not be able to find the materials, flames, forging methods... to forge suitable items.
Rubbing his eyebrows, Zhang Xuan looked depressed.
I thought it was just a matter of buying a spirit gathering array. It would be simple and pleasant, and it would be over in a moment. I never expected that I had been struggling for several hours, but still couldn't solve it.
"Actually... it is possible to set up a level five formation without a formation base or formation flag!"
Elder Wang Haoxun on one side thought of something and interjected.
"Huh?" Zhang Xuan was stunned.
Through study, he knew that if he wanted to set up a formation, he must have these two things. This was a rigid rule and could not be changed. Is there any other way
"You mean..."
President Zheng seemed to have thought of something. Halfway through his words, he shook his head and said, "This can't be done. Are you kidding me?"
"What's wrong?" Seeing the two of them playing riddles, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but look over.
"What he's talking about is... carving the array!"
President Zheng smiled bitterly: "Creating a formation is more difficult than setting it up. If you don't reach the five-star level, you will never succeed!"
"Array disk?" Zhang Xuan was stunned.
Yes, why didn't he think of it
The formation plate is made of special material with patterns carved on it, replacing the formation flag and formation base. Naturally, there is no need for these two things.
"Not to mention these, I once got a blank formation disk from the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion to depict the fifth-level formation. I tested it myself. It is extremely hard. Without a special carving knife, I can't even draw the lines. How can I carve it?"
President Zheng kept shaking his head.
The higher the level of the formation, the higher the material requirements for the opponent's board. Otherwise, if it can't withstand cracking before it's used, what's the point of using it
Their guild only has the carving knife used by four-star formation mages. Even if it has a level five blank formation disk, it cannot carve or form patterns, let alone create formations.
"Bring me the fifth-level spirit-gathering array diagram and the array plate for me to take a look at. If there is really no other way, I can only give up on it!"
Knowing that the other party was right, but finally grasping a life-saving straw, Zhang Xuan still spoke.
"good!"
Seeing his persistence, President Zheng nodded, flipped his wrist, and a jade tablet and a blank array appeared in front of him.
These two things are considered the most precious items in the entire guild, and they have always been carried with them.
After receiving the jade token, Zhang Xuan was immersed in it.
Just like the fourth-level jade tablet just now, the fifth-level spirit gathering array records the layout method and the requirements for various items... clearly in my mind.
I read it quickly and remembered it at the same time.
"It's really difficult!"
After sorting through his memories, Zhang Xuan sighed.
Although there is only one level difference between the fifth-level formation and the fourth-level formation, there is a huge difference. If the cultivation level is not reached, even if there are formation flags and formation bases, it will be difficult to completely arrange them.
Just like alchemy, a one-star alchemist, even if he has the elixir recipe, cannot control the violent power in the alchemy furnace, and it is impossible to refine second- and third-grade elixirs.
If they could all be refined, there would be no need to divide the levels of these professions in such detail.
"But... if you use the Tiandao Library to find errors and loopholes, you should have a chance of success!"
With these two things, it would be difficult for an ordinary four-star formation mage to complete it, but he would have a certain chance.
Just like alchemy, as long as there are no mistakes, you can give guidance to a one-star alchemist to refine a second-grade peak medicine.
As long as he ensures that the steps of setting up the formation are correct, even if he is only halfway to becoming a mortal, he can still set up a level five spirit gathering formation.
But... Although the idea is good, it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. There are no materials, so no matter how much she thinks, it is useless.
"Let me take a look at the array!"
Putting these thoughts aside, he reached out and took the blank array plate that President Zheng had found.
This thing is completely black and very heavy to hold. It is made of unknown materials. If you look at it from one side, it looks like a bronze mirror, smooth and neat.
"This is a carving knife, you can try it!"
Seeing that he was still struggling, President Zheng turned his wrist and handed over a carving knife.
Taking it smoothly, Zhang Xuan's inner energy surged, and he took the carving knife and carved it on the smooth side of the game board.
Squeak, squeak!
There was a heartbreaking sound. Although the carving knife was tough, it did not leave any trace on the blank array disk.
Zhang Xuan smiled bitterly.
It seems that the other party is right. He thinks too much and cannot move for a moment. Even if he has a simpler method, it is useless.
"defect!"
Helpless in my heart, I held the blank formation disk in my palms and whispered in my head.
call!
A book appears and is opened gently.
"The fifth-level blank formation plate is made of silver-cold iron mixed with nine-inch gold. It is refined by the five-star weapon refiner Yang Shu. It is extremely hard. Only a high-grade spiritual grade carving knife or a medium-grade spiritual grade weapon can leave traces in conjunction with the true meaning of the weapon. shortcoming:… "
The flaws are densely written on it.
After a quick glance, he knew that even if it was a flaw, it was not something he could rely on for his current strength. He was about to let it go when he suddenly froze.
"Spirit-level mid-grade weapons combined with the weapon's true meaning... can also leave traces?"
The spiritual-level high-grade carving knife is exclusive to fifth-level formation mages, and there is no way to get it, but... The spiritual-level middle-grade zhenqi is available to some fourth-level mortal transformation experts. It is not difficult to find it in Honghai City. Even the master of the Sai Pavilion in front of him has it. I have collected a lot of treasures of this level.
As for the true meaning of the weapon, even the sword's heart has been understood, so naturally it won't be a problem!
The true meaning of the weapon is unparalleled in its sharpness. Although it is one level lower, it can definitely make up for it.
The more he thought about it, the more sense he made. His eyes shone brightly. Zhang Xuan looked up and said, "I know how to carve it. Do any of you have a mid-level spiritual sword? Lend it to me?"
"Spirit level mid-grade long sword?"
President Zheng was stunned for a moment: "I have it, what do you want this for?"
"Lend it to me!"
Zhang Xuan spoke.
"good!"
Knowing that the other party would not be able to steal his things, President Zheng flipped his wrist, and a long sword appeared in his palm and handed it over.
He took it casually and pulled it away gently.
A cold light shot straight up to the tip of his brow, and before he could input his true energy, he felt a force of spiritual energy.
It was worthy of being at the mid-level spiritual level, and it was much more powerful than the weapons he had seen and used before.
Buzz!
As the long sword was unsheathed, a violent spiritual wave came, as if it was about to break free from his hand and fly out directly.
A weapon of this level has its own spirituality and can recognize its owner. If it is not the owner, it cannot control it and may even be injured.
"I'm sorry, this sword has been with me for a long time, and it's a little uncomfortable. If I give it some advice, it should be better..."
Seeing that the sword was beating and about to escape at any moment, President Zheng came up to him with embarrassment and gently touched the back of the sword with his fingers, as if caressing a couple: "Okay, Master Zhang wants to lend you a hand. Be obedient and don’t resist!”
Buzz!
After hearing his dissuasion, Chang Sword seemed to be wronged and trembled even more violently.
"Ahem, don't worry, I'll advise you right now..."
President Zheng's face turned red and he continued to touch and dissuade.
However, this long sword didn't seem to appreciate it. The more I tried to persuade him, the more violently it beat.
"Old Zheng, it's been so long since you bought this Jade Sword that you haven't completely recognized it as its owner, right?" Sai Pavilion Master on one side couldn't help but say.
This sword was bought from him by an old friend. It has been almost five years since he bought it. Unexpectedly, he still hasn't completely recognized its owner.
If the weapon completely recognizes its owner, it will definitely obey the owner's words very respectfully, and it is impossible to resist like this.
"Ahem, you also know that it is very complicated to let this kind of weapon recognize its owner. Over the years, we have been with each other every day, even eating and sleeping together. It has been much better. You can listen to what I say. Don't worry, let me comfort you for half an hour, and it will definitely be fine. No problem anymore!”
President Zheng said with an awkward smile.
There is no good way for a spirit with weapons to recognize its master except eating, sleeping, accompanying him day and night, and tempering it with true energy.
Jade Que Sword has been with him for five years, and his spirituality has almost recognized him. Although he is still far from completely recognizing his master, he is still very close. After slowly comforting him, he can still listen to his words.
"Half an hour, it's too much trouble, please give me the sword!"
Hearing that it took such a long time to comfort a spirit-level mid-grade weapon, Zhang Xuan was speechless for a while and couldn't help but shake his head.
"For you?" President Zheng was stunned: "Do you have any idea?"
Too lazy to make ink marks with the opponent, he reached for the long sword, put his index and middle fingers together, and tapped the tip, body, and hilt three times respectively.
call! call!
When he touched it, the long sword trembled violently as if it had encountered something extremely scary.
"Just stay there and keep jumping around. Believe it or not, I will kill you in a matter of minutes?"
His face darkened and Zhang Xuan scolded him.
"Buzz!"
Upon hearing these words, the long sword immediately stopped beating, and then a sound sounded from inside the sword body, like a bell, resounding in everyone's hearts.
"Spiritual excitement..."
His body stiffened, and President Zheng's eyes almost fell out on the spot: "Jade Sword recognized him as its master? This, this... what happened?"
