Chapter 220 Earth Spirit Foundation
PS: Four Updates! Guys, can you help me to get my collection up? There is another update before midnight. Do what you say!
——————————————————————————————
The direction of Ding Yang's eyes is the five hills next to each other. The highest one is only ten feet high. The hills are full of green vegetation, covering the five small hills into five green balls.
Just above these five hills, about a hundred feet high in the air, there was a reiki vortex. The surrounding aura was all sucked away by this whirlpool.
The reason why Ding Yang is strange is not because of how huge the reiki vortex formed above the five hills is. On the contrary, the vortex formed here is not only different from the vortex above the main hall of Shuo Tianfeng, which is like an elephant and an ant, but also the two aura vortex found in the hidden place on the cliff.
However, the reason why the vortex formed here can attract Ding Yang's attention is that the proportion of aura that makes up the vortex is very strange, and it is completely inconsistent with the proportion of aura in the air.
In the air of Shuo Tianfeng, including several aura vortices found before, all of which have the largest aura content of wood properties, followed by the reiki of the three elements of gold, water and fire, and the weakest aura of earthy elements. However, in this whirlpool, 70% of the aura is all earthy yellow, the wood cyan aura accounts for 20%, and the three kinds of auras of gold, water and fire only account for one percentage, which makes Dingyang very strange.
"Go over there and have a look!" Ding Yang pointed to the five hills with his hand and flew there with his water sword.
"It's strange why the earthly aura here is so strong, which is completely opposite to the proportion of aura in other places?" A Xue also noticed the abnormality of the aura ratio here.
"The aura ratio here is so strange that there must be something nearby that can affect the aura ratio, and it must be something of earth." A Xue analyzed the cause of the abnormality of Reiki.
"But it certainly won't be a powerful thing, otherwise those monks above the infancy of Qingyunzong have already found the abnormality here." Seeing the joy on Ding Yang's face, A Xue couldn't help breaking a trace of fantasy in his heart.
"Oh!" Ding Yang hummed. Just now, he did have a trace of fantasy in his heart. He thought that he could find natural treasures such as Jiuxuan Lieyang flowers, just like in the nameless valley of Heifeng Mountain.
Yes! This is not the low-level plane of Xuanhuang Continent. The monks on the Shuotianfeng of Qingyunzong are far from comparable to the black wind. If there are any natural treasures, how can it be his turn to explore and harvest?
"Ding Yang, [Gaqi Array] is set here." A Xue made a final sound.
"Ah! Why? The aura gathering here is not as good as that under the cliff just now. Why put the gathering array here? Ding Yang is a little confused. Although the proportion of aura here is different from other places, the overall degree of aura gathering is not strong. I don't know why A Xue is so sure that he puts the gathering array here.
"It's because of such a strong earthy aura here, Ding Yang, do you know the meaning of building a foundation?" A Xue flew to the lower direction of the Reiki vortex and asked Ding Yang.
Seeing Ding Yang's puzzled shaking of his head, A Xue continued to say, "The so-called foundation in the world of cultivation refers to getting rid of Dantian as the source of condensing true qi, re-opening up a sea of qi in the body, and entrusting the task of condensing liquid aura to the sea of qi to complete."
Ding Yang nodded. He has learned these common sense in [Fundamentals of Cultivation]. I don't know why A Xue has to solemnly repeat it.
"The person who cultivates the truth has a variety of anterior celestial constitutions, such as gold, wood, water, fire and earth. No matter what kind of constitution, the final condensed qi sea is the same, but do you know which attribute of aura is the most suitable for condensing the sea of qi?"
Ding Yang shook his head and said tentatively, "It should be the most appropriate to condense the sea of air with the aura that best suits his physique!"
"Wrong!" A Xue shook his head and then said amazingly: "Building the foundation with the aura that suits your own physique, it is the easiest to condense the sea of qi, but it is not necessarily the most suitable. The most suitable aura of the sea of condensed qi is the earthy aura."
"The five elements of aura are born and overcome each other. Even if a person has one of the elemental constitution, there will be a large number of other attributes of aura in the body. Before cultivating the virtual realm, even the monks of the gods can't transform all the other auras in the body. These five kinds of reiki are mutually reinforcing and transforming and integrating each other in the body. In addition to the kind of aura that is most suitable for itself, the sea of qi also plays a great role in condensing with that kind of aura.
"The so-called ten thousand-foot high-rise buildings start from the ground. Building a foundation is no different from building a foundation. The earth attribute element is the mildest, thickest and most basic element among the five elements. Although it is also compatible with wood and water elements, it is relatively incomparable compared with water and fire and gold and wood. It's mild. Therefore, it is definitely the best choice to build a foundation with earth attribute aura and condense the sea of gas.
"So that's it!" After listening to Ah Xue's explanation, Ding Yang nodded as if he had some understanding. I didn't think anything, but now I think it really has a deep meaning.
Imagine that if a monk with a fire constitution, of course, uses fire aura to condense the sea of gas when building the foundation, it will have twice the result with half the effort. I believe that 99 out of a hundred people will make such a choice.
However, there will still be four other attributes of aura in this monk's body. Other aura is fine. If the proportion of water-based aura is large, water and fire are not incompatible. I'm afraid that part of the fire aura in the body will be contained by water-based aura to balance the aura in the body to achieve a harmonious state.
When facing the enemy in this way, I'm afraid it will be difficult to exert the greatest strength, which will give the enemy a good opportunity. The strength is not as good as your own enemy. If you meet an enemy with the same strength, I'm afraid you will be greatly affected.
If you are known by the enemy and lead yourself to a place where the water-based elements are most concentrated, such as the sea, your strength will shrink more, and the danger will follow.
In this way, the earth attribute Reiki is really the most suitable for building a foundation.
"And these five hills are exactly the number of the five elements, which is simply the place where the [gathering air array] is set up by heaven and earth. If I don't put the gathering air array here, I feel sorry for this terrain."
"Do you need anything to set up a gas array?" Ding Yang said worriedly that although he had not set up the formation, he also knew that in addition to relying on the terrain, there must be a lot of foreign objects to use as a formation. If the things needed were too precious and rare, he did not know where to find them.
The most hateful thing is A Xue. There is a treasure house in the hall of his blood dragon, which has everything in it, but it can't be opened now. It's really funny.
"Ye-huh! This formation is relatively simple. There are not many things needed. You only need five low-grade spiritual stones as the array, and then you need a spiritual weapon as the array eye.
"The lower spiritual stone?" Ding Yang remembered that there were ten crystal pebbles in the box he received in the general registry. Is that the spiritual stone? He quickly took it out of his arms and held it in his hand. He asked nervously, "A Xue! Look, is this the so-called spiritual stone? Can it be used as a foothold?"
"Oh! Yes, this is the lower-grade spiritual stone, which can be used as a formation foot. The formation foot is used to provide energy for the whole array. Five lower-grade spiritual stones should be able to supply the operation of the gas array for three months. You have ten low-grade spiritual stones in your hand, which can stimulate the gas gathering array to run for six months. The gathered aura is enough for you to build a successful foundation and condense the sea of gas. Ah Xue nodded and said that Ding Yang was relieved.
"The key is to have a spiritual weapon as the array eye. The array eye is the core of an array, guiding the array to play its reserved role, so this aura can't be sloppy."
"Spiritual weapon? What do you think of this water-stopping sword? Ding Yang now has only two weapons on his body. One is the Chiyan Sword brought from the Xuanhuang Continent, and the other is the Zhishui Sword given to him by Lu Yun.
The Chiyan sword is not a magic soldier even in the Xuanhuang mainland, let alone in the cultivation world, so the only thing left is the Zhishui sword. I hope it can be used.
"No way!" Unexpectedly, A Xue looked at the Zhishui Sword, shook his head and said, "The Zhishui Sword can only be regarded as a spiritual weapon, and it can't meet the requirements as an eye."
"What should I do? Where can I find a real spiritual weapon? Ding Yang's heart sank. He had just arrived at Shuo Tianfeng. He was not familiar with the place, and it was impossible to get a spiritual weapon at all.
You should know that spiritual weapons are rare even in Shuo Tianfeng. At least only Judan monks can have a spiritual weapon. Many foundation-building monks are not able to have them, which shows the preciousness of spiritual weapons. Ding Yang just arrived at the world of cultivation. There are few acquaintances. No one is willing to lend him a precious spiritual weapon, not to mention that it is impossible to borrow it for six months.
"It doesn't matter. We can refine the water-stopping sword into a spiritual weapon!" Seeing the embarrassed look on Ding Yang's face, A Xue said something amazing again, and this time it was a great shock.
"Ah! Refining spiritual weapons?"
Ding Yang was stunned by A Xue's words.
