Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 408: Chapter 403: Ultimate Formation (Only one update today)_3

Mr. Zhuang sighed softly:

”First is the issue of time.”

”Mastering Ultimate Formations requires time, and a Formation Masterʼs time is very precious.”

”If you spend your time mastering low-grade Ultimate Formations, how will you learn high-grade Formations?”

”Formation Study is vast and profound, no Formation Master can be so adept that they have fully grasped the Formations of their current grade, and then go on to learn other things.”

”If there is one, that Formation Master must be substandard.”

”Because the more ignorant one is, the more they think they know everything. The more you know, the more you realize how little you actually know.”

”The same goes for Formations.”

”The deeper the understanding of a Formation Master, the more they know about the profundity of Formations and the infiniteness of the Great Dao.”

”High-grade Formations are difficult, and naturally, high-grade Ultimate Formations are even more difficult, while low-grade Ultimate Formations are also not simple...”

”They donʼt have the time to cover both.”

Mo Hua couldnʼt help but nod his head.

He then suddenly realized that he had a lot of time.

Because he practiced Formations on the Taoist Stele at night, which was equivalent to not needing to sleep.

This gave him twice the time compared to other Formation Masters.

And with Divine Sense on the Taoist Stele that could be rewound, his Divine Sense was always replenished.

By this calculation, he actually had several times more time to learn Formations than other Formation Masters.

Other Formation Masters had limited time and couldnʼt manage both.

Then, did he not need to choose, could he have them all?

Mo Hua blinked, feeling a tiny bit of guilty pleasure, and a little embarrassed.

As if he was cheating.

Seeing Mo Huaʼs eyes blinking, Mr. Zhuang knew he was having some crafty thoughts and couldnʼt help but smile faintly, but he did not probe further and continued:

”Besides that, low-grade Ultimate Formations are somewhat superfluous for high-grade Formation Masters.”

”Because of the lower grade, the effects of the Formation are greatly diminished.”

”Itʼs time-consuming and labor-intensive to learn, and itʼs not very useful.”

”And the most troublesome aspect is that some Ultimate Formations themselves are inherited in grades, following a continuous lineage.”

Mr. Zhuang said solemnly.

”A continuous lineage?”

Mo Hua frowned, ”If the grades are broken, canʼt they be learned?”

Mr. Zhuang nodded and slowly explained:

”Ordinary Formations donʼt fuss over these things.”

”For example, if you donʼt know a First Grade Melting Fire Formation, it doesnʼt matter; you can start learning from Second Grade.”

”These Formations are related, but they are also relatively independent of each other; there is no need to follow a fixed sequence.”

”But Ultimate Formations are different.”

”Many Ultimate Formations are linked grade by grade in a continuous chain.”

”You must start from First Grade and then learn Second Grade, followed by Third Grade, progressing from the simpler to the more complex.”

”And Ultimate Formations themselves are very rare, itʼs difficult to have a complete succession.”

”Itʼs very possible that the succession of a full set of Ultimate Formations is scattered across the state boundaries of the Nine State, in different forces in different places.”

”First Grade in Li State, Second Grade in Kun State, Third Grade is missing, Fourth Grade in Qian State, and for the grades above Fifth, there are not even rumors...”

”Without the First Grade, you canʼt learn the Second Grade, and likewise, even if you have the Formation Diagrams for the subsequent Third and Fourth Grade Ultimate Formations, if the grades are broken, you fundamentally canʼt learn them...”

Mo Huaʼs mouth fell open.

No wonder they are called ”Ultimate” Formations...

Difficult to learn by their very nature, they require progressive grades, linked in succession; one mishap could result in the discontinuation of the lineage...

Mr. Zhuang glanced at Mo Hua again and sighed:

”Thatʼs why during the Qi Refinement Realm, you should learn as many Ultimate Formations as you can, as many as possible, because most Ultimate Formations are based on the First Grade Ultimate Formations.”

”Alright, Master!”

Mo Hua agreed and then expressed some concern, ”But what about later on...”

Mr. Zhuang stroked his head gently and said calmly:

”Later on, you will have to learn how to find them yourself.”

Mo Hua was taken aback, then somewhat understood.

Why Mr. Zhuang brought him out and let him find Formations on his own.

It was to guide him to become proficient in Divine Sense Calculation.

So that in the future, relying on his own abilities, he could also find the Ultimate Formations hidden in various places of the Nine State.

Mr. Zhuang sighed slightly, ”For the reasons mentioned above, there are very few Formation Masters in this world who can truly master Ultimate Formations.”

”But you are different; your Cultivation Technique is special, you must master Ultimate Formations, and you must be exceptionally proficient.”

”The more Ultimate Formations you learn, the better; the harder they are, the better.”

”The more you learn, the deeper your understanding of Formations, the stronger your Divine Sense becomes, and the further youʼll be able to travel on your future path...”

Mr. Zhuang said to Mo Hua, his tone serious and his gaze full of expectations.

Mo Hua nodded solemnly, committing his masterʼs words deeply to his heart.
