From A Stronghold NPC To The Final BOSS

However, his many years of experience told him that ...

There was no such thing as too much deception in war.

It was applicable at all times.

Moreover ...

Anything that could happen, even if there was only a slight chance, could not be ignored.

After all, the great Zhao ruled the world and there were no other powers.

Back when the demon clan was still around.

There were many countries in the world.

However, with the defeat of the demon race, the great Zhao, under the leadership of the human Emperor, swept across the world and finally dominated the world.

However-

Even so, it did not mean that all the other small countries had surrendered or perished.

In the period of time when the great Zhao ruled the world.

The Army was still fighting North and South.

It was only in the last hundred years that all the forces were swept clean, and only the great Zhao was left in the world.

And back then, when he was conquering the various countries.

Wu tai was one of the generals, so he knew more about The Art of War than the others.

Otherwise ...

He also did not have the qualifications to be one of the few generals who were second only to Yan caizhe.

On the other side.

Qin shujian was already preparing to set up the formation.

To a Grandmaster of array path.

The simplest, most direct, and most energy-consuming way of setting up a formation was to carve a formation in the void. With a wave of his hand, his spiritual will would be consumed like a tide and he could directly set up a large formation.

However, this method ...

First, it consumed too much energy.

Secondly, his spiritual will could not cover the entire city.

&Nbsp; so,

Qin shujian had used the second method to set up the formation.

That was the formation plate.

He placed the formation disk on every key node in the city and connected them together to form a large formation.

Such a formation.

The consumption would be relatively lower.

As for the power of the formation, it didn’t decrease at all.

The only flaw was ...

Casting an array disc required a considerable amount of materials.

To Qin shujian, this was not a big problem.

After all, it was Wu tai who asked for the formation. The other party couldn’t just ask him to set up a formation out of thin air. Therefore, the corresponding materials were provided by the Imperial court.

Inside the mansion.

Qin shujian moved to his left and right, leaving su Mingyang alone at the side.

Then, he took out the materials that Wu tai had sent and ignited the Ming King Fire in the air. After throwing the materials in, he began to refine them with all his might.

The instant the Hellfire of the wisdom King appeared.

Su Mingyang couldn’t help but take two steps back. Looking at the flames burning in the air, a strong fear appeared in his eyes.

Just now.

When the Hellfire of the wisdom King appeared, he felt his soul throb.

Such a threat.

It made su Mingyang feel as if he had met his natural enemy.

“What kind of flame is this?!”

As he looked at the Hellfire of the wisdom King, a hint of doubt flashed through his fearful eyes.

Even with his knowledge, he could not tell the origin of the Hellfire of the wisdom King.

In su Mingyang’s memory.

There were no flames that could threaten a divine martial realm Grand cultivator.

But the feeling just now ...

But it made him understand that this was definitely not an illusion.

In other words-

...

If he was infected by the Hellfire of the wisdom King, even if he was a divine martial realm cultivator, he would not have an easy time.

Regarding su Mingyang’s actions.

Qin shujian didn’t pay any attention to it. His entire focus was on the Hellfire of the wisdom King in front of him.

He had to obtain the formation plate that contained the formation.

Other than having the materials, one also needed to cast the array disc through casting methods. After that, one would have to engrave the array technique on the array disc.

An expert who was proficient in formations.

However, he might not be proficient in the path of forging.

&Nbsp; so,

Not every array master could use an array disc.

However, these questions were not difficult for Qin shujian, who was a Grandmaster with two paths.

As he continued to cultivate the origin returning ancestral law ...

...

The might of the Hellfire of the wisdom King was also becoming stronger and stronger.

In less than half an hour.

The materials that had been calcined in the Hellfire of the wisdom King had all melted.

Immediately after.

Qin shujian’s hands formed many runes. With the control of his true essence and spiritual will, he cut the liquefied materials apart. Then, he used the runes to condense them into many square-shaped formation disks.

“BOOM!”

Thunderclouds rolled in the sky.

In the next instant.

A Thunderbolt struck down and landed on the array board.

It was a sudden change.

It immediately attracted the attention of the others.

After all, for the Tai Mountain City that had just been affected by the flames of war, it was hard for it to cause fear in the People’s hearts.

I’m forging a spirit weapon. No one is to disturb me. Qin shujian’s true essence continued to control the disk array. As the lightning fell, runes were sent into the disk array.

At the same time, he said, ”

Upon hearing this.

Su Mingyang immediately knew what to do.

After su Mingyang left.

On the other hand, Qin shujian’s entire body and mind were focused on the disk array. He allowed the lightning to strike him as it pleased, and the runes that were added to the disk array were slowly merging into it.

The lightning came quickly.

He left quickly.

After the 18 bolts of lightning fell, the thunderclouds in the sky disappeared. Only the 18-sided array discs were left in the void. As Qin shujian waved his hand, all the 18-sided array discs flew toward him.

Just as the thunderclouds dissipated.

Su Mingyang had just returned.

When he saw the eighteen-sided array disc, his eyes were filled with doubt. He couldn’t help but ask, “”Sect leader Qin, may I ask what this is?”

“This is a formation plate, and it is the object that carries the formation!” Qin shujian floated in the eighteen-sided formation disk in front of him. He was obviously in a good mood. He smiled and said, “”Any one of these 18-sided formation disks is a low grade spiritual artifact.

If someone who is proficient in formations can combine an eighteen-sided formation disk into an array, its power will be comparable to a superior-grade spirit artifact.”

A superior-grade spirit weapon!

He looked at the eighteen-sided formation plate.

Su Mingyang was also quite shocked.

In such a short time, the other party had forged 18 spirit weapons, and the power of the assembled spirit weapons was comparable to that of a superior-grade spirit weapon. Such a method was unheard of to him.

However, when he thought of the other party’s status as a forging Grandmaster, he felt relieved.

Or perhaps ...

This must be the means of two grandmasters.

Qin shujian did not explain much about su Mingyang’s shock.

Although the eighteen-sided array disc was comparable to a superior-grade spirit weapon, it would only work if it fell into the hands of an array master.

Once an array master was controlling the array board.

Even a low-grade array master could unleash the power of a superior-grade spirit weapon, which was equivalent to having a superior-grade spirit weapon with him.

However ...

Similarly, as the existence of a formation, the formation disk needed to be the foundation of the formation. Then, it could be combined and arranged to form a complete formation.

Compared to formations ...

The spirit stones and accompanying jade stones could directly carry a complete Grandmaster’s array. The user did not need to know any array methods, as long as they knew how to activate the array, it was enough.

He ignored su Mingyang’s shock.

As Qin shujian’s will fell, the eighteen square formation discs were arranged neatly on the ground.

Immediately.

He reached out and took out an array disc. As his true essence and spiritual will surged, runes appeared in the void and landed on the array disc.

Every time a rune fell, the sky would turn dark.

The formation plate trembled slightly, and the patterns engraved on it seemed to come to life, gradually twisting and spiraling like silver Snakes.

Half an hour passed.

Qin shujian placed the first formation disk down and retrieved a second formation disk. He copied the first formation disk and carved runes on it.

It wasn’t as if there was no end to this kind of carving.

Qin shujian would stop for a while every time he engraved six formation disks. Then, he would take out a vitality pill and swallow it. He would only start to engrave the remaining formation disks again after he had recovered his exhausted divine will.

Vitality Pills were divided into seven and eight grades, and the different grades represented different effects.

And the vitality pill that he had taken ...

Naturally, it was the eighth-grade vitality pill.

As for the source of the pills, it was also provided by the Imperial court.

However ...

After obtaining the vitality Pills this time, Qin shujian suddenly recalled something. Ever since he had obtained the Azure elixir vortex, he had never refined a single elixir even after he had raised his elixir refinement level to the level of a Grandmaster.

The reason why he didn’t do it ...

It was because he believed that consuming medicinal pills would not help him.

With the domain lord title.

Cultivation was much faster than taking medicinal pills.

However, after he obtained the vitality pill, Qin shujian suddenly came to a realization.

That’s right.

He didn’t need to consume medicinal pills to cultivate. Recovery medicinal pills still had many effects on the body.

This was especially true for pills like the vitality pill, which could recover the consumption of spiritual will and replenish the spiritual spirit. The effects were even more obvious.

With his Grandmaster level of array Dao cultivation.

Every time he set up a formation, he would need to use a lot of spiritual will.

If only he had the vitality pill.

Then, the problem of his spiritual will being exhausted would be alleviated to a large extent.

However-

Qin shujian had never exhausted his spiritual will that many times before. In addition, he was not very interested in alchemy. Therefore, he had almost forgotten that he was a Grandmaster Alchemist.

“Looks like I’ll have to start making some pills after this.”

level eight Vitality Pills. With my current alchemy Grandmaster realm, it’s enough to refine them.

After he made up his mind, Qin shujian focused his attention and started to engrave the rest of the formation disks.

More than half a day passed.

The eighteen-sided formation plate was finally completed.

In the empty space of the mansion, the eighteen formation disks floated in the air, each of them emitting a dense light, as if they had been refined into a single entity.

Soon after.

Qin shujian kept all the formation disks into his storage ring. Then, he left the residence with su Mingyang and headed to the city Lord’s residence to meet Wu tai.

“Lord Wu, I’ve already engraved the eighteen-sided formation disk. As long as I bury it in the corresponding location of Taishan City, it will form a great city-protecting formation that can resist Deva-level cultivators.” Qin shujian went straight to the point when he saw Wu tai.

Hearing this, Wu tai was overjoyed. He laughed and said, “”I wonder if Grandmaster Qin still needs any help?”

I don’t need much help, but there’s one thing I need to take note of. The position of the formation plate is either hidden and unknown, or it needs to be heavily guarded. No one can get close to it.

Qin shujian said with a solemn expression.

“As long as the formation plate is here, the formation will be fine!”

“If the formation plate is missing, I don’t need to say the consequences, Lord Wu should also know.”
