Chapter 744: Formation and Restriction

As for the golden armor puppet, although he has not repaired it yet, he is confident that he can repair it. What he lacks now is only one piece of material.

Fortunately, the puppet is not too seriously damaged. After a check, he feels that he is 80% sure that it can be repaired. In addition, he has basically gathered all the materials for repairing it over the years. However, the only remaining material is too rare and can't be found anywhere, so it has been delayed until now.

Of course, it is not because the material is too precious that no one sells it. In fact, in terms of preciousness, this material is far inferior to "mithril refined iron", and it is not very useful. Except for refining ancient puppets, there is almost no place to use it. As for why it has not been available for so long, it is just because this material is too rare.

But then again, it is not precious only for Wu Fan. If it is an ordinary Jindan stage cultivator, it is absolutely unaffordable, such as Chen Mingzhou and Zheng Linfeng.

…

In addition to these few techniques, Wu Fan has also been learning the art of formation and prohibition over the years.

However, he has not made much progress in these two techniques, and the results are extremely low, because these two techniques are simply too difficult to learn.

Now he finally understands why formation masters in the world of immortal cultivation are even rarer than alchemists, because these two techniques are simply not something that ordinary people can dabble in, and their difficulty is simply astonishing.

You know, although these two techniques have something in common, they are also very different.

For example, the art of formation, this kind of formation is actually to arrange a powerful formation through various array tools or materials, and finally to transmit energy through spirit stones or spirit veins, and finally to achieve its terrifying power, such as attack formation, defense formation, illusion formation, transmission formation, and a series of incredible formations.

The simpler and more convenient method is to refine the array-laying tools, such as array flags and array plates, and then use spirit stones to activate the array. This is also the most common method in the world of immortal cultivation. The power varies, depending on the strength of the array master.

In fact, this type of array was later improved by the array master from the original array to facilitate the monks to carry it with them. It can be traced back to ancient times.

As for the more difficult ones, that is, the original ancient array, it is a very powerful array arranged with various precious materials and engraved array patterns.

This type of array with average power can be activated by spirit stones, such as the "teleportation array" and the "six-pointed thunder sword array" obtained by Wu Fan.

As for the extremely powerful ones, it is necessary to use the spiritual energy in the spirit veins to activate them. For example, the mountain protection array of a super-large sect actually uses the spirit veins of its mountain gate to transport energy, and does not use spirit stones at all, just like the Tianlei Sect in the immortal world. Even from ancient times to the present, those large arrays still exist.

As for the fact that it is not as powerful as before, it is because after so many years, the materials for setting up the formation are no longer good, and the spiritual energy reserves in the spiritual veins are running low.

To be honest, Wu Fan was only following the example of others when he set up the "Six-pointed Thunder Sword Formation". In fact, he did not understand the key points at all. Of course, this was in the past. Now he is more or less knowledgeable.

In fact, some small sects or some immortal cultivation families are still using the formations they bought, and they are generally activated by spiritual stones. Although it is extremely costly, they have no other choice because they do not have the ability to set up a super formation, and they cannot invite the formation masters of noble status to the sect to set it up for them.

In fact, the "Way of Formation" is like this. Almost all of them need to use formation tools or materials to set up the formation. Even the sword formation set up by the disciples of the "Ten Thousand Sword Sect" requires flying swords.

But the "Tao of Restrictions" is different, because this method does not require any tools or materials at all. It only needs to use one's own spiritual power to carve "array patterns" or "runes" in the void. Its power is also quite great. It can even be said that this method is very profound.

So far, Wu Fan has only just begun to glimpse the way. Now he can only simply arrange a soundproof restriction, or concealment restriction, or arrange a sealing restriction in the Yuanshen of a low-level cultivator to control the opponent. As for the more difficult ones, he does not have the strength.

However, it is said that in ancient times, someone could actually use a restriction to isolate a space, and even a cultivator in the God Transformation Stage could not get out if he was trapped in it.

What's more powerful is that some people can even arrange a powerful attack restriction in the void at will, and it is extremely concealed. Even if the enemy enters the restricted space, they will not feel it, and finally die in a confused state.

According to legend, some people can even quickly set up a teleportation ban in the void, which can instantly teleport thousands of miles away. Although the teleportation distance is not as far as the teleportation array, it can save lives in times of crisis.

In short, the way of prohibition is indeed profound and profound, which is very different from the way of array, and it is also difficult to learn.

So over the years, Wu Fan has not been deeply involved in these two methods, but he has decided to spend a lot of time learning these two methods in the future, so that when he breaks into those dangerous places in the future, he can have more means of life-saving, and finally return to Xia Country safely.

However, in these years, some of the array tools refined by Wu Fan are very popular among those low-level cultivators. Although the power is not very strong, it is more than enough to kill some foundation-building cultivators with spirit stones.

So, he has earned a lot of spirit stones by refining array equipment over the years.

…

During these thirty years, in addition to practicing and learning those few techniques, Wu Fan also took time to teach Xu Yun, and his apprentice has now been promoted to the middle stage of foundation building.

Since Wu Fan has become a master, he will naturally not ignore his apprentice. In order to ensure the safety of his apprentice when walking outside, he even specially gave him a silver armor puppet.

It can be said that he, as a master, has done his best.

You know, a puppet equivalent to a late Jindan cultivator is something that too many people dream of. It can be said that this is basically a powerful personal bodyguard. When walking in the world of immortal cultivation in the future, you don’t have to be afraid of anyone.

However, not everyone has the fate to get it, let alone a foundation-building cultivator, even a Jindan cultivator, not everyone has the strength to buy this treasure.

But Xu Yun was an exception, because he had a good master, so he could easily obtain it. If others knew about this, they would be envious.

However, Wu Fan gave a strict order when he gave this treasure to Xu Yun. Unless his life was at stake, Xu Yun could not use this puppet.

As for the warning, it was naturally for Xu Yun's good.

Wu Fan was afraid that his disciples would neglect their cultivation after having something to rely on, and he was also afraid that once his disciples exposed the puppet, it would eventually lead to a fatal disaster.
