Chapter 23 Treat
When the main body was reunited in the valley, Tang Jie's clone was also practicing hard in the Sky Fire Tower.
Because of the support of a large amount of resources brought by the trade between the two worlds, Tang Jie's strength increased at an alarming rate.
All the formations were completed, and the sword manuals and sword scriptures were mastered quickly.
Wuji Hun Tian Kung also made rapid progress with the support of Ice and Fire Cliff. It only took more than a hundred days to reach the third level, and it was not far from the fourth level. In order to ensure the progress, Tang Jie used black stone coins to buy a large amount of time in addition to the authorized time, so that other people in the Sky Fire Tower could not enjoy the blessed land to practice, and there was a lot of complaints for a while.
Apart from that, there is the small Five Elements Battle Formation practiced with Nashan and others.
Battle formation is actually a type of formation path, but it has two development directions. The first type is based on people, supplemented by formations. The formations are mainly used to bring out the strength of the cultivator, especially the superposition of each person's combat power as the main method. The performance during battle is more like some kind of combined attack technique. The other type is just the opposite. It is based on formations and supplemented by humans. The meaning of human existence is mainly to replace the materials needed to set up the formations and to do things that cannot be done by materials.
Both types of formations have their own advantages and disadvantages. In terms of power, the latter has more changes and is more powerful. It can truly show the power and effect of the formation, and it is not limited to combined attacks. It has various forms and endless changes. For example, the Yimu Tianqing Formation and the Earth Fire Evil Formation that Tang Jie once used can actually be presented in this way.
However, this has relatively high requirements for cultivators. It not only requires cultivators to have corresponding attribute exercises (since materials are to be replaced, they must be able to play the role that the materials are supposed to play), but also requires cultivators to have a sufficient understanding of the formation method. Even if the formation has the corresponding attributes, it cannot exert its power. In the end, it still needs to know how to cooperate. The biggest problem with the human-based formation is that it is impossible for cultivators to replace dozens or hundreds of materials. This requires the cooperation of many people, and cooperation becomes extremely critical. The more people there are, the more difficult it will be to cooperate. In particular, practitioners have a happy and carefree nature and have different personalities. It is extremely difficult to knead many people together and arrange the exercises strictly according to the requirements of the formation.
In contrast, the former one is not that troublesome. As long as you master the know-how, you can basically use it.
For this reason, large-scale battle formations involving hundreds or even thousands of people are basically based on the former. They do not seek endless changes, but only seek to exert the power of large numbers, gather sand into a tower, and turn quantity into qualitative change. A small number of elites mainly focus on the latter. Through long-term practice and cooperation, they form a movable formation that consumes no or very few materials, but is extremely powerful and can be used repeatedly for a long time.
Tang Jie and the others practiced the latter formation.
Nashan, Water Demon, Qinglian, Black Eye and Tang Jie represent the five attributes of earth, water, wood, fire and metal respectively, forming a small five-element battle formation. Each palm has one energy, each dominates one line, Si Bamen and Tongjiu. There are one hundred and thirty-seven kinds of changes, with great killing power and majestic power.
Of course, the requirements for cooperation are also high.
After hundreds of days of practice and cooperation, the five people have now basically mastered the changes in the Small Five Elements Battle Formation.
Today Tang Jie was practicing with four people on the eighth floor of Skyfire Tower as usual.
Two hours later, Nashan said: "Okay, just stay here today. You don't have to come over tomorrow."
"What's wrong?" Tang Jie asked.
Nashan replied: "There are still three days until the opening of Wanbao Tian. The war is about to begin, and it is not a problem to practice hard for a while. We must learn to relax before the war. So from tomorrow on, we don't have to practice so hard. Let's relax. .”
"Just wait for what you say, Brother Nashan." Black Eyes said with a smile.
Among these five people, Black Eyes is the youngest and has a relatively lively temperament. The daily hard training has long made him extremely tired. At this moment, when he heard that he would start resting tomorrow, he couldn't be happier.
On the contrary, the water demon frowned slightly: "There are still three days left, aren't you going to try out the last three changes of the Little Five Elements Battle Formation?"
Everyone has now mastered one hundred and thirty-four variations of the Small Five Elements Battle Formation. However, the last three variations, which are also the three most powerful ones, have never been mastered. The water demon was obviously unwilling to give in, so he asked the question.
Nashan shook his head and said: "Forget it, the last three changes are too difficult. Everyone has worked very hard, but there is still some shortcomings. I don't want to work too hard and end up with everyone. Morale.”
"Yes." The water demon also sighed: "Speaking of it, we have worked very hard, but I don't know why we always fail."
Qinglian didn't like to talk, so she just nodded vigorously.
Tang Jie said: "That's because everyone doesn't really understand the formation. Our ability to reach this point mainly relies on our own cultivation, strength, cooperation and familiarity with the Small Five Elements Battle Formation. We are only familiar with this battle formation." formation, but do not understand the complete formation. Without understanding its principles, it is difficult to achieve its changes. The last three changes of the small five-element battle formation are myriad changes and are all-encompassing. However, because they are all-encompassing, they need to be adapted to time, place, and Adapting to people's conditions cannot be solved by rote memorization of methods. Brother Nashan is right. We can't learn these three changes not to mention the remaining three days, even thirty days and three hundred days. But even so, with the one hundred and thirty-four changes mentioned above, it should be enough."
"So that's it. No wonder we can't practice well no matter how hard we practice. It turns out there is such a relationship." He scratched his head with black eyes and smiled: "Brother Tang Ran, you must be extremely knowledgeable in formations. No wonder it's you every time. Quickest to learn and never make mistakes.”
Tang Jie smiled but didn't answer, but the water demon gave Black Eyes an angry roll of his eyes: "You just found out."
Tang Jie said: "Since we need to rest, I suggest that we find a place to have a drink together in the evening and I'll treat you. Speaking of which, we spend a lot of time together, but apart from practicing, we haven't really gotten together once. "
"Yes, yes!" Everyone nodded together.
More than a hundred days of practicing side by side, in addition to cultivating the small Five Elements Battle Formation, also cultivated the friendship between the five of them - no matter how stranger they are, after so many days of getting along, they should become friends. Moreover, the future trip to Wanbaotian will not only require strong strength, but also mutual trust and cooperation. Teams that are scheming with each other are destined to not end well.
However, we have never experienced a life-and-death friendship together, so it obviously still lacks some tests. So when they heard Tang Jie's proposal, everyone became interested and cheered together.
Black Eyes already said: "I know a good restaurant. The ingredients there are all made from wild beasts. They are not only delicious, but also very nourishing, strong in blood and good for cultivation, but the price is not cheap."
Tang Jie smiled and said: "Don't worry about the price, as long as you can afford it, just order it."
He is now rich and powerful, let alone a mere beast, even a Nine Heavenly Dragon, as long as he can offer a price, he will dare to buy it.
When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed and shouted in unison to go.
The Baiyue Tower that Black Eyes mentioned is on Feixian Street, not far from Tianma Street.
This Baiyue Tower is also very famous in the Free City, and it is best at cooking all kinds of wild beasts.
The five people came here, chose a private room, and began to order dishes honestly and politely.
Holding the menu, he looked at Tang Jie with dark eyes, and asked Tang Jie worriedly: "Anything?"
Tang Jie nodded firmly.
Black Eyes pointed at the menu and said, "Bring up your most expensive dish."
The waiter politely reminded: "The most expensive item in our store is freshly fried phoenix liver. Dongshan phoenix liver is as cunning as a fox and as fast as lightning. It is the most difficult to catch. For this dish, five pairs of phoenix liver are harvested, and thirty-six Made with the essence of two kinds of spices; stewed with red golden eyes, there is a golden-eyed beast in the West Sea, which is as big as a boat and roars like thunder. This dish only uses the essence of its eyes, and only two of them are needed to make a meal; there are also colorful chicken hearts fried with heavenly herbs , that colorful chicken is a rare delicacy in the world, extremely hard to find, and this dish takes the essence of colorful chickens, and it takes seven or eight to make one dish..."
After announcing several dishes in succession, all of which were extremely precious, Tang Jie waved his hand to indicate that they would all be served.
Nashan stretched out his hand and took the menu: "Let me order a few. Don't just look at the price when eating. These dishes are too small and boring. It's not enjoyable to eat. It's better to have some that are filling. It tastes good. Well, I think this roasted golden-horned rhinoceros is good. I’ll get one for me, and two pairs of arrow-feathered eagles. The wings of the arrow-feathered eagle are delicious, and there’s also a century-old blood python... ...Why are you looking at me like this? Do you think I can’t eat it?”
The waiter replied with a grimace: "I don't dare, I just can't place the table."
"..."
The black eye is more expensive, and the mountain is more. In contrast, the water demon's order is the most delicate and elegant. Drink the tea blended from the new green sprouts of snow and South Lake on Mount Tianli in winter, the fish roe from ice sea and snow that should not be stored for more than two days from catching to transportation, the red mushrooms fried with the dew dripping from the green hemp leaves in the morning, etc. Wait, and finally ordered the Braised Psychic Parrot Tongue and gave up.
Nashan was very disdainful of this. He hugged the thigh of a golden-horned rhinoceros and gnawed it wildly while saying: "After all, the things that women eat are not enough for me to swallow in one bite."
What the water demon ordered was not enough to eat. In contrast, what Qinglian ordered was something that she didn't dare to eat.
What these guys ordered were all weird things, such as fried iron centipedes. This kind of iron centipede has a shell that is stronger than iron. After being fried, it is still so hard that its teeth can break. Qinglian took one bite at a time. The chewing is particularly strong; stir-fried devil's ivy is a food that is both toxic and delicious. The more toxic, the more delicious the taste. Qinglian ordered a stir-fried method that retains 70% of the toxicity. When he ate it, he could see a wave of excitement on his face. Green gas bursts out, which makes people's hair stand on end. Finally, there are live steamed ghost-faced mushrooms. This is a plant that has become a spirit. When it was served, the ghost face on the ghost-faced mushroom was still wailing and crying from time to time. Qinglian swallowed it in one gulp, and the thing continued to scream as he chewed it. Listening until there is no sound, the scalp of those who listen is numb.
At this moment, the four people let go of their stomachs and ate wildly. They each got what they needed, and they felt extremely satisfied. Although they have been in Skyfire Tower for many years and have a lot of income, they have never eaten so generously.
It was just that it felt good to eat, but when he was about to finish eating, the water demon found a list on the small table behind him. She looked at the list and found that it was their meal money. She did the math and was shocked to find that this meal actually cost about 100,000 black stone coins.
What if Tang Jie can't pay?
I was enjoying myself while eating, but suddenly I felt a deep sense of sadness.
The water demon secretly told Black Eye the price, and Black Eye's face paled. Then he told Qing Lian, and the Qing Qi on Qing Lian's face became more intense, but the food on the table was almost too much to eat, so he turned around and started eating again. Tell Nashan.
Nashan was also a little startled when he heard this, and the speed of frantically chewing the arrow feathers and eagle wings slowed down a bit, and said with a heavy face: "Damn, I've eaten too much... I said, Brother Tang, you should really pay this money Are you up?"
Tang Jie wanted to say of course, but said with dark eyes: "Even if you can afford it, you will lose everything. Damn it, these profiteers don't quote the price when ordering, and only give the order now. I'll see if I can Can’t sneak out.”
As he spoke, he trained his eyesight and looked through the wall. He saw several monks standing outside. His dark eyes trembled and he said, "It's broken. We're surrounded."
Tang Jie was about to say it was okay when he saw the water demon saying with a gloomy face: "Be prepared to fight out."
Tang Jie's heart skipped a beat when he saw that Qinglian had started to kill the guy, and he was already full of murderous intent.
Tang Jie said hurriedly: "No, no, I'll handle it."
After going out, Tang Jie went directly to the store and paid the bill. When he came back, he saw that the cultivators around him had already withdrawn. Tang Jie's heart moved, he walked back to the room and said, "Quickly go!"
"What?" Everyone was stunned.
Tang Jie said: "I just used the method of cloning to deceive the guards outside, let's take advantage of the situation and leave."
"You really have no money?" Black Eyes was frightened.
Tang Jie deliberately said angrily: "Of course I have it, but not so much. Who told you to eat so hard?"
Black Eyes said anxiously: "I don't eat much, Nashan eats the most."
Nashan was furious: "No matter how much I eat, it's not as expensive as you. I only pick out rare and delicious food."
The water demon rolled his eyes at Nashan: "I didn't eat anything delicious, it was just kung fu food."
Qinglian snorted and said nothing, with a cool look on her face.
Although his dishes are not rare, they are not cheap either.
Tang Jie grabbed them and said, "Oh, why are you saying these things now? Let's go."
As he said that, he led the four people away in a hurry, came to a window, jumped out, and ran away from the window one after another. As they ran, everyone muttered: "After all, our brothers are also celebrities in the Free City, but we are reduced to eating the King's meal. It's really embarrassing."
After running for a while, the water demon said doubtfully: "Huh? That's not right. There are places like Baiyue Tower where high-level cultivators are stationed and protected by magic circles. How come they escaped so easily? And even if They are really careless, why is there no movement now?"
Yes, everyone just woke up.
One hundred thousand black stone coins is not a small amount. If it is really gone, how can there be no movement at Baiyue Tower? How could the previous cultivators be easily transferred by Tang Jie?
Looking back at Tang Jie, I saw him laughing so hard.
Then everyone suddenly realized, Nashan shouted: "You Tang Ran, you dare to play tricks on us."
Tang Jie laughed: "Who told you to be so naive and fall for a scam? After all, you are the sweetheart of heaven in the city of freedom, an invincible strongman on the killing field, but you are willing to bend your waist for a meal and commit the robberies of chickens and dogs, haha , now I have been caught. If anyone dares to disobey in the future, I will publicize this matter to him!"
Everyone looked at each other.
Black Eyes said: "What should I do?"
Nashan roared angrily: "Beat him!"
"beat him!"
The four of them shouted together and rushed towards Tang Jie at the same time.
Tang Jie laughed and turned around and ran away, and the five people ran wildly in the city of freedom.
It was already late at night, and the city of freedom was completely silent.
Since fighting was not allowed in the city, the five of them rushed out of the city together.
As soon as Tang Jie left the city, he saw Qinglian lift his hands, and a large green light rose from the ground, but countless green vines wrapped towards Tang Jie.
At the same time, the black-eyed hand pointed, and a black flame pillar also struck Tang Jie. This black flame blends into the night and is almost imperceptible to the naked eye.
Nashan even grabbed the ground with both hands, his arms going straight into the soil. As a surging force surged into the ground, yellow sand rose and dust flew. In the vast sand, a yellow earth dragon rolled out.
Finally, the water demon cackled. In the midst of his laughter, countless blue water springs emerged from the ground and flew into the sky.
The four elements of wood, water, fire and earth appeared together and pounced on Tang Jie, showing no mercy in their attacks.
Tang Jie saw that he couldn't avoid it, and his figure suddenly accelerated, shooting lightning towards a dense forest in the distance. As he ran out, he raised his hands, and the ten swords came out at the same time. They were the unparalleled ten swords, pointing towards the vast sky, pointing towards the distance. He suddenly pointed at the dense forest, and at the same time, the green vines, black flames, yellow earth dragons and blue water springs all fell towards the dense forest.
The five people shouted at the same time, and five rays of light were released, gathering together a majestic force. This power is so great that even the Tang Jie in its original form does not dare to resist, it is the Xiao Five Elements Battle Formation.
However, just as the five-color brilliance fell, a red light and shadow suddenly appeared on the dense forest. Supporting the combined power of the five people, the small Five Elements Battle Formation with the five people joining forces could not suppress it. Despite this, the forest still let out a roar of rage, clearly angry at the sudden attack and at the same time being caught off guard.
Just as the red light was resisting the attack, Tang Jie had drawn out the Five Mountains Chaozong Sword, and the five mountains had fallen from the sky at the same time, hitting the red light shield and emitting a large bloody light and shadow.
"Break it for me!" Nashan roared, and the huge ax cut out a vast stream of light, and it was slashing on the red light shield. This time the red light could no longer resist, and it actually burst in response, and a bloody figure flew out of the forest.
The figure had just risen, with black eyes, the water demon and Qinglian had already taken action at the same time, and the small five-element battle formation formed by the three people's combined power formed a torrent of dragon flames that shot straight into the air. Just as he was about to engulf the figure, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed on the fireworks. The dragon flames fired by the three of them disappeared as if they rushed into a black hole.
The expressions of the three of them changed at the same time, and they saw that a boundless sea of blood suddenly appeared in front of them.
This sea of blood was vast, boundless, and had an astonishing power as vast as the sea. It gave people a feeling that it was impossible to look directly at it, and the three of them almost knelt down. Fortunately, Tang Jie rushed over at this moment and stabbed the figure with his sword.
This sword seemed ordinary, but it was filled with indescribable mystery and magic. It actually forced the figure to retreat, and at the same time let out an angry roar: "Seeking death!"
This roar was cold and chilly. It was clearly roaring in the ears, but it seemed to echo in everyone's heart.
Lord of the Blood River!
