MTL - Asking About Longevity-Chapter 79 Earth Fire Array

Chapter 79 Earth Fire Formation

Mo Hua went home at night and lay in bed unable to sleep.

 Firstly, I was a little worried about Dahu and the three of them, and secondly, I thought that I was also a monk after all, and it seemed that I had no means of attack or self-defense.

The monks in Tongxian City have simple folk customs, and they have not encountered any danger even as they grow up. But not encountering danger does not mean that you will not encounter danger.

 When you are really in danger, you must find some way to defend yourself. You can never just sit back and wait for death.

 Ink painting is not a physical cultivation, and the blood energy is very weak, so you cannot learn the martial arts of Taoism, so you can only learn magic. But the spiritual power of Mo Hua is not very strong, not to mention that at the fourth level of Qi Refining, his cultivation level is low, and it is still a little early to learn spells...

 After thinking about it, the only thing that can be used is the formation...

 “Is there any formation that can be attacked?”

Mo Hua got up and took out the "Qian Zhen Ji Lu" given by Mr. Zhuang and started looking through it:

""Ice Cone Formation", seven formation patterns, but I have never learned the ice array patterns, and the spiritual ink used to draw the formation is also very rare..."

“Thunder and Fire Formation, it should be quite powerful… Nine Formation Patterns, let’s forget about it…”

 “The "Wooden Prison Formation" is not used for attacking..."

""Fire Breathing Formation", three formation patterns, the power is a bit weak..."

 …

 Looking through the ink drawings, I finally chose the one "Earth Fire Formation".

 Seven array patterns, the ink used is cheap, the layout is simple, and the fire array patterns are relatively familiar. After the array is activated, it will self-destruct, so the power should not be weak.

I was very satisfied with the ink painting. After a while, I began to practice "Earth Fire Formation" on the stone tablet of Shihai.

 The formation is not difficult. It took me one night to do the ink painting. After practicing it a few times, I was basically familiar with it. The next day I woke up and started drawing on paper. I tried several times and finally succeeded.

Just when Mo Hua was trying to light up the formation, something suddenly occurred to him:

Once you inject spiritual power into yourself, will the earth fire formation take effect? ​​It will explode directly. Then my house will be gone. With my small body, I will probably be disabled if not dead...

Mo Hua broke into a cold sweat.

 Mo Hua flipped through the notes about the "Earth Fire Formation" in the "Collection of Thousand Formations", which read: Spiritual energy is injected into the formation, and it explodes after three breaths, causing fire spiritual damage.

“It means to inject spiritual power first, and after three breaths...well, almost three seconds, the formation will self-destruct, and then the power of the formation explosion is similar to the power of the fire monk's spell."

This is a landmine...

 Ink painting secretly complained.

 But in any case, it is impossible to try this formation at home.

Mo Hua took advantage of his free time in the morning and drew two more ground fire formations. He left home in the afternoon and went to a secluded grove on the mountainside outside the city. He placed the formations under the trees and tried to inject a little spiritual power.

 The formation lit up, but did not explode.

Mo Hua squatted on the ground, holding his chin with his little hand, "It's on, it means there is no problem with the formation and it didn't explode. Does it mean that the spiritual power injected is not enough?"

If I inject enough spiritual power, will the formation explode directly?

Mo Hua felt a little guilty. He was not a physical practitioner, so he probably wouldn't be able to withstand the power of the Earth Fire Formation explosion.

Mo Hua took out the "Collection of Thousand Formations" again and read it word for word. He confirmed that it would take three breaths before it exploded. There might be something wrong."

 The ink painting circulated the sea of ​​​​qi, directly injecting a large amount of spiritual power, and the formations of the earth fire array suddenly emitted a dazzling red light.

Mo Hua ran away with his head in his hands, then jumped into a pit a few feet away and hid his whole body in the pit.

 Mo Hua chose to detonate the "Earth Fire Formation" in this place because of this pit. He even rehearsed several times in advance to ensure that with his small arms and legs, he could successfully hide in the pit within three breaths.

 The ground fire array exploded, and it lived up to Mo Hua's expectations. Mo Hua was very satisfied.

But even though it exploded, it only made a gap in the big tree. The gap was a little scorched, and the effect was small, but the ink painting was not satisfactory.

Looking at it this way, lighting this ground fire array is not like lighting a mine, but more like lighting a firecracker.

“The formation containing seven formation patterns should be more powerful..."

Mo Hua felt that the problem should not be found in the formation, but in himself: "Is it because my cultivation level is low, so the spiritual power injected into it is not enough?" If the spiritual power is not enough, the only way is to use spiritual stones.

Mo Hua took out an Earth Fire Formation and placed it under another tree. Then he reluctantly took out a spirit stone, crushed it into pieces, and then injected the spiritual power in the Spirit Stone into the Earth Fire Formation.

This time the patterns on the Earth Fire Formation were even more dazzling.

Mo Hua hurriedly ran back into the pit, only to hear a "bang" sound, which made Mo Hua's ears hurt a little. Then with the roar and the sound of branches and leaves snapping, the big tree that was hit by the ground fire array collapsed.

When Mo Hua ran over to look at it again, he couldn't help but open his mouth.

　　The big tree withstood the self-explosion of the ground fire array. A large gap was opened in the trunk and it fell to the ground. There were obvious traces of charred ash on the gap, as if it had been burned by fire.

"Is the power of a spiritual stone that strong? Or, is my spiritual power really that weak..."

Mo Hua felt a little uncomfortable.

However, the power of the earth fire array activated by a spirit stone made Mo Hua quite satisfied, so he drew a few copies to prepare them for emergencies.

Mo Hua went home satisfied after making sure that there were no signs of fire in the trees blasted by the ground fire array.

 Only the big trees that had been bombed were left alone.

The next day, Elder Yu from the demon hunting team passed by and saw the traces of bombing on the trees. He couldn't help but said angrily:

“Go back and find out which **** in the demon hunting team did it. If you have the energy to not hunt demons, you come here to blow up trees. Do you feel that your cultivation is good and you have nothing to show off?”

 The big men in the demon hunting team on the side shrank their heads and did not dare to make a sound.

Elder Yu has a bad temper and always says the same thing, so they don't dare to say "no".

 After participating in the demon hunting ceremony, the three of Dahu became busy. They were either competing with each other on martial arts and Taoism at home, or going into the mountains with the senior demon hunters to learn the experience of hunting demons.

On the night of the second day of the Monster Hunting Festival, Mo Hua could only go shopping alone. Without his friends, even though it was lively, he still felt a little boring.

Unexpectedly, on the third day, after Mo Hua visited Mr. Zhuang and asked questions, he was dragged away by Bai Zisheng.

"take me!"

Bai Zisheng's handsome eyes stared blankly at the ink painting.

"What…"

"Monster Hunting Festival!" Bai Zisheng said, "I have inquired about it. The Monster Hunting Festival lasts for three days. Today is the last day. If you don't go to see it, it will be too late."

 “Once a year.”

"Who can say for sure what will happen next year? What if Zixi and I go somewhere else? We won't be able to see each other for the rest of our lives... No, you must take me there!"

"But... I want to take you there, but it's useless. Aunt Xue won't agree." Mo Hua said.

"I've thought about it," Bai Zisheng's eyes lit up, "Let's do it secretly and not let Aunt Xue know. At worst, we will get beaten when we come back. A man is upright and cannot be afraid of being beaten. Even a beating is worth it!"

“Then think about it, how could you hide it from Aunt Xue?”

Bai Zisheng thought for a moment and sat down dejectedly, "Yes, I can't hide it. Ever since I was a child, I have never been able to hide it from her."

Seeing that he was like an eggplant battered by frost, Mo Hua felt a little sympathetic and said, "Then you and Aunt Xue will discuss it. Finish your homework during the day and go shopping on the street for a while in the evening?"

"That's all we can do..." Bai Zisheng nodded.

“Then hurry up and do your homework now. If you can’t finish your homework, you won’t be qualified to talk to Aunt Xue.” Mo Hua said.

Bai Zisheng suddenly became energetic, opened the book on the table, glanced at it twice, and then asked Mo Hua: "Then if Aunt Xue agrees, how can I find you?"

"Today at Youshi, I will wait for you under the big tree on the street. If Aunt Xue agrees, I will take you around. If Aunt Xue doesn't agree, I will have to go alone."

 “It’s a deal!” Bai Zisheng became happy.

 “Well, it’s a deal.”

  Thanks for the tip, I don’t know why~
