Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 458: Thoughts on the Grass and Wood Sword World
"The Nan Dou Changqing Sword Formation...is truly remarkable!"

Li Ye held a jade slip in his hand and praised softly.

At this moment, he was replaying the scenes when his puppet clone saw Du Yian take action in his mind, and a gleam of light kept flashing in his eyes.

After thinking about it, he finally decided to go there in person.

Judging from Du Yian's attitude, the auction hosted by their Changqing Sect will probably be of a large scale, and will probably attract quite a few Nascent Soul cultivators, and the situation will definitely be mixed.

Perhaps under the suppression of the Changqing Sect, no one would dare to do anything against the rules, but if the auction ended and the cultivators left one by one, it would be hard to say what would happen.

When Li Ye had just established his foundation and was in charge of Pingyang Mountain, he collected what he needed for cultivation bit by bit by holding regular auctions.

The various chaos that might arise have long been clear to me.

Even when one reaches the Nascent Soul stage, as long as the cultivator's own self-interest motivation does not change, his behavior habits will not be much different.

If you are really lucky and can buy what you need at the auction, you may be targeted by others when you leave. It is still a little difficult to escape unscathed based on the combat power of your natal puppet alone.

If you want to be absolutely sure, it is natural for the main body to go there in person, so as to have the greatest chance!
In the past, in order to disguise Han Fei's identity as a physical cultivator, the puppet clone could only rely on the Five Elements Furnace to transform into the fire element, and rely on the puppet's own strong physique to display a similar fighting style.

In this way, they are naturally slightly inferior to real physical cultivators, and may even be at a disadvantage compared to cultivators of the same level. This is of course a considerable disadvantage.

But if he were to go there in person, with the improvements he had made over the years from tempering his body with evil spirits, he would be able to truly demonstrate the horror of a Nascent Soul cultivator!
Even if he doesn't use his own Wood God Magical Power, and only uses the Tiangong Sutra and his natal puppet to transform into armor and perform physical combat, he should be a strong one among the same level!
If even such means and identity cannot deter others' greed, he still has the real magical power of the Wood God to teach them a lesson.

However, there is still some time before the auction, so it is not necessary to leave early.

In addition to maintaining his daily practice, Li Ye's favorite thing to do recently is to figure out the Nan Dou Changqing Sword Formation performed by Du Yian.

This sword formation is the real secret method of Nan Dou Chang Qing Gong, which cannot be taught to anyone other than the core of the sect. Although Kong Xing, who delivered the goods to the door that year, was a true disciple of the sect, he had the complete version of Nan Dou Chang Qing Gong from Qi training to Nascent Soul.

However, the content of this sword formation only contains the part related to practicing the natal magic weapon in the Jindan stage.

The Northern Dipper represents death, while the Southern Dipper represents life.

The Nan Dou Chang Qing Gong itself is a technique that uses the vitality of the wood element to carry the changing artistic conception of the Nan Dou. Strictly speaking, it is not a pure wood element technique like the Mu Shen Jue.

The sword formation derived from this technique is inspired by Qingmu Changchun's vigorous sword intent and has the magic of the evolution of stars.

If you want to form a formation, you need to refine six flying sword magic weapons with a wood base, namely Tianfu, Tianliang, Tianji, Tiantong, Tianxiang and Qisha, each with star characteristics.

Even though Kong Xing was a true disciple of the Changqing Sect, he had only mastered the Tianfu Sword.

What he learned was only the part about the changes of the Tianfu Sword Formation. If he needed to fight the enemy, he had to form a formation with five other fellow disciples in the sect to evolve this formation.

Only those who have truly advanced to the Nascent Soul stage and proven their loyalty and potential can receive the complete teachings of the sect.

At the same time, he also has enough confidence to find spiritual materials to refine another five flying swords, and then gradually refine them with one heart, so that one person can form a formation.

When Li Ye first looked through this person's belongings, he saw that this method was incomplete. Although he was somewhat interested, he didn't take it too seriously. With all the magical powers contained in his Wood God Art, even though it lacked the relevant content about the Wood God Sect's inheritance of formations, wouldn't it be more powerful than the Nan Dou Changqing Art?

Now that my natal puppet has the opportunity to glimpse the complete changes in the formation, this is of course very different.

The changing stars above and the flourishing vegetation below, all represented by the power of swordsmanship, truly moved him greatly.

However, even though Li Ye had the complete practice of the Nan Dou Changqing Gong in the Nascent Soul stage and part of the Tianfu Sword Formation for reference, he also had his own foundation in formation as support.

If one wants to deduce this mysterious skill by himself, it will probably take at least hundreds of years to have a chance to get the true meaning of it.

After all, the artistic conception evolved by this sword formation is extremely extraordinary. Even if it reaches the realm of transformation or even higher, it is likely that it still has considerable power. Given Li Ye's limited understanding of the evolution of stars, it is certainly not easy to achieve it by relying solely on his own deduction.

But he didn't want to deduce this method by himself.

If you have that much free time, you might as well practice hard. Once your cultivation level is high enough, go directly to the Changqing Sect to suppress the entire sect and ask for the complete book.

At this time, after some research, I wanted to absorb the true meaning of it and apply it to my own practice of martial arts, formations and even swordsmanship, so that I could make use of it for myself.

"This technique and its derived sword formation originate from the Wood Element, yet they connect to the transformations of the stars and expound upon the wonders of life..."

Li Ye was thoughtful. "The way I practice is pure wood... The other changes, even the void, are the evolution of the Wood God Art based on the characteristics of various plants and trees!"

"If I wanted to cultivate a sword formation unique to me, perhaps I could also categorize it like the Nan Dou Changqing Sword Formation, refine swords according to the characteristics of plants, and use the Sky Realm Tree as the core to command all plants and trees to form a formation..."

"Perhaps we can combine the sword art with the transformations of plants and trees, and push each to its limits... and thus create a world of plant and tree swords?"

This coincided with Li Ye's understanding and idea of the step-by-step evolution of the formation back then.

Considering that Li Ye has already achieved considerable accomplishments in various arts, once this idea came to his mind, he immediately had a premonition that if this method succeeded, it would be extraordinary!
Once it is refined, it is not as simple as just forming a formation with a sword.

Among those of the same level, his power is probably even greater than the blue sky tree sea formation he set up with the Wood God Cauldron as the core!

It is a complete method of attack!
But he immediately felt at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"In that case, all flowers and plants can be turned into swords. How many flying swords do I need to refine to reach that level?!"

It was easy for the Grass and Wood Sword Realm to think so. With his current fourth-level formation technique and Nascent Soul cultivation, he was afraid that he wouldn't even be able to get close to it.

Once all those flying swords appeared, it became a question whether they could be deployed as desired.

"But if I can draw on these inspirations and try to deduce them when I have free time, integrating and refining the characteristics of various plants and trees, I might be able to gradually complete this sword formation..."

Li Ye touched his chin, his eyes gleaming with a rare glint of ambition.

It seems that in order to realize his ambitions in the Grass and Wood Sword Realm, he will have to borrow the formation diagram from the Changqing Sect one day...
