Chapter 2 Dao Monument

Since Mo Hua could remember, this Taoist stele appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness, along with some vague memories.

In his memory, Mo Hua spent a short life in another world without spiritual energy.

In that life, Mo Hua's family was ordinary, but he studied hard, had good grades, and was admitted to university. His major was fine arts, and he liked to study Chinese painting and calligraphy.

After graduation, he joined a large company as an artist, worked overtime, and died of overwork in his twenties.

He studied as a student and worked after graduation. He spent his whole life in tension and anxiety.

When he came to his senses, he found that he lived in a muddle and died unexpectedly.

In the moments before his death, his life experiences passed by like a revolving lantern.

In his life, he had never done anything truly valuable: he had not been filial to his parents, had not pursued his ideals, had no dreams, had no love, and had not seen the scenery of the world...

These memories were vague, and Mo Hua sometimes couldn't tell the truth from the false.

Zhuangzi dreamed of a butterfly, but he didn't know whether it was Zhuangzi dreaming of a butterfly or a butterfly dreaming of Zhuangzi.

After a long time, Mo Hua no longer struggled.

The past is past. Now he is only ten years old, and the world he lives in is the world of cultivation.

And he is a cultivator.

A cultivator who can fully understand the way of heaven, soar to the sky, pick the sun and the moon with his hands, and bury the stars with his hands!

Of course, he can also be a cultivator who has been practicing Qi all his life, can neither fly nor fight, can only use a few spells, and makes a living in a humble way...

Without the Dao Monument, Mo Hua estimated that he should be the humble latter.

The Dao Monument is suspended in Mo Hua's sea of ​​consciousness.

It is broad and ancient, strange and incomplete. The body of the monument seems to be empty, and it seems that there is a vast and obscure breath floating. In a trance, it is silent and empty, with nothing...

The empty monument surface can be used to draw formations, and every time a formation is drawn, Mo Hua's consciousness will be enhanced.

In all kinds of cultivation, formations are respected!

Formations are the most difficult category to learn in all industries of cultivation, and the most important thing to learn formations is consciousness!

The formation is composed of formation patterns, which are the patterns of the heavenly way drawn by the ancient monks after they painstakingly comprehended the heavenly way.

The patterns of the formation are like ancient words and simple paintings, which contain infinite mysteries.

When drawing the formation, the sea of ​​consciousness communicates with the mysteries of the heavenly way, which consumes a huge amount of spiritual consciousness.

If the cultivator's spiritual consciousness is insufficient, he cannot draw the formation, otherwise it is easy for the spiritual consciousness to be exhausted, or even the sea of ​​consciousness to be broken and die. To become a formation master, you need to constantly learn various formation diagrams and practice various formations.

Therefore, the formation is difficult to learn and practice, and the formation master is also prone to collapse and die due to insufficient spiritual consciousness and forced drawing of the formation.

When Mo Hua draws the formation on the Dao Monument, it will consume spiritual consciousness, but when he erases the drawn formation, these spiritual consciousness will be instantly returned, making Mo Hua's spiritual consciousness full.

From existence to non-existence, and then from non-existence to existence, it is like the great way, mysterious and extraordinary.

At the same time, every time Mo Hua drew a formation, his spiritual awareness would increase slightly. Although it was small, it was indeed increasing. 【】

As far as Mo Hua knew, there was no method to cultivate spiritual awareness in the cultivation world. Most of the increase in spiritual awareness depended on the breakthrough of realm.

Therefore, even if the increase in spiritual awareness was very small, it was extremely rare.

As long as Mo Hua kept drawing formations on the Dao Monument, he could improve his formation level. At the same time, as long as he kept drawing formations, his spiritual awareness would continue to increase.

With a strong spiritual awareness, Mo Hua could learn more, higher-level, and more powerful formations.

One day, Mo Hua could use this to become a powerful formation master.

The status of formation masters was respected. Even if they were ordinary formation masters who had not entered the first rank, they would have considerable spiritual stone income by drawing formations for others.

Once they became formation masters, they could draw various mysterious formations. With the foundation of their own lives, they could continue to practice and would not be just a Qi-refining cultivator for their whole lives.

Mo Hua said silently in his heart.

But becoming a formation master was also full of difficulties.

Formations were difficult to learn, and formation masters were difficult.

Among the categories of cultivation set by the Dao Court, the identification of array masters is the most strict, even the most demanding.

The array is composed of array patterns. The basic array contains only one array pattern. With each additional array pattern, the array will be upgraded to a higher level, the array effect will be enhanced, and the required spiritual consciousness will be greatly increased.

If you draw one to five array patterns, you can be an array apprentice.

If you draw six to eight array patterns, you can be called an array master, but this kind of array master is just an ordinary array master and is not among the ranks recognized by the Dao Court.

Only by drawing nine array patterns and passing the Dao Court's fixed-grade assessment can you become a true first-grade array master.

Becoming a first-grade array master is almost like ascending to heaven for a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage.

A first-grade array master is basically a guest of honor of major families and sects. Even a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage dare not offend him easily. Even if he does nothing, he will receive a spiritual stone allowance from the Dao Court Tianshu Pavilion every month, and there will be countless young and beautiful female cultivators rushing through the door to compete for being a Taoist companion.

In addition to the extremely difficult assessment for a first-grade array master, there is also a quota limit in each state. To become a first-grade array master, it depends on both hard work and destiny.

If you are unlucky and the quota is limited in your state, even if you have the attainments of a first-grade array master, you will not get a quota for the fixed grade and can only wait for the next assessment.

Some array masters waste their lives while taking the exams.

Countless low-level cultivators have worked hard and studied the classics until their hair turned gray, but they have never achieved their long-cherished wish of being promoted to a first-grade array master.

The so-called quota limit of the Dao Court is generally just an excuse for the big families and big sects. They need the title of first-class formation master to add icing on the cake for their direct lineage or direct disciples, making them the geniuses that everyone pays attention to.

Those low-level cultivators who work hard to become first-class formation masters are just dust under their feet that never enter their eyes.

It was already night, and Mo Hua was lying in the bedroom of the disciples' residence, but his consciousness sank into the sea of ​​consciousness, and he kept drawing the formation on the Dao stele.

The formation drawn by Mo Hua was called the dual-element formation, which contained two formation patterns and was considered one of the basic formations.

But Mo Hua had never successfully drawn this formation before.

Disciples in the early stage of Qi training, because of insufficient consciousness, can generally only learn formations containing one formation pattern. Among the early Qi training disciples of the outer sect of Tongxian Sect, there are very few who can learn a complete formation pattern.

But Mo Hua has already mastered a single formation pattern and can draw it with ease.

Mo Hua wanted to learn a more difficult formation, so every night, he practiced the dual-element formation with two formation patterns on the Dao Monument.

After dozens of nights of repeated practice and hard work, Mo Hua finally succeeded.

For a formation master to learn formation, each formation pattern is a threshold. Drawing one more formation pattern means climbing a ladder.

Mo Hua can draw two formation patterns, which means that his consciousness and formation level are much higher than those of his peers.

Among the disciples of the outer sect of Tongxianmen who are in the early stage of Qi training, his formation level should be considered unique.

Mo Hua breathed a sigh of relief. When the morning came, his consciousness left the sea of ​​consciousness and Mo Hua opened his eyes.

Although he had been drawing formations all night, Mo Hua was still clear-minded and did not feel tired, as if he had just slept peacefully.

Pushing open the window, the morning sun shone on his fair and fair face.

The sun rose outside the window, and the clouds covered thousands of miles.

The ten-year-old Mo Hua exhaled lightly, looking at the scenery on the horizon with a determined look in his eyes.

As long as he keeps practicing formations and honing his spiritual awareness, one day he will definitely become a first-class formation master.

By then, like the rising sun, he will surely take a big step towards seeking immortality and asking for the way.

His life is no longer just about refining qi!
