I manifested the Shushan game

Chapter 350 Dragon Vein Gathering Qi! An Unexpected Accident!

Chen Han glanced at Minister Ma after seeing the feng shui formation through the feng shui spirit stone.

I was really born in the right era, otherwise I would definitely be playing Nine Clans Elimination Game.

If you encounter a bloodthirsty, murderous emperor, and he plays a 10-race elimination game, both he and the other party will likely become part of the elimination process.

Minister Ma noticed the gaze of the Chen family head, which puzzled him greatly, because he read too many different meanings in the Chen family head's eyes.

Surprise, shock, sympathy, pity, relief...

His gaze shifted several times in an instant, leaving him completely bewildered and not understanding what was going on.

Or perhaps I misread it?
Chen Han, however, had already looked at the game prompt that had just appeared in his mind:

A special feng shui formation, known as "Dragon Vein Gathering Qi," has been discovered. However, due to a lack of understanding of the geographical features and a superficial understanding of the arrangement, the "Dragon Vein Gathering Qi" formation is currently incomplete and cannot function effectively.

This is also why Chen Han said Minister Ma was bold.

The "gathering and storing of qi" feng shui formation is a common feng shui formation, generally used to improve the environment. Of course, powerful formations can even change the climate, just like the Chen family's "gathering and storing of qi".

However, such a feng shui formation has extremely high requirements for the geographical terrain, and Chen was only able to set it up successfully because of the game system.

There are many variations of the Feng Shui formation that gathers and retains Qi, and the Dragon Vein Gathering Formation is one of them. Moreover, in ancient times, only the emperor could use this Feng Shui formation.

This formation doesn't even need a formation diagram; it's one of the publicly disclosed formations.

A single vein rises from the yellow earth, branches spread in all directions, leaping and turning as if alive, deep in the abyss or high on the hill...

Dragon bones and earth form garments, dragon hair and veins stretch far and wide, layers of true veins are revealed, branches and trunks are touched and examined in detail...

With mountains in front and support behind, embraced by jade belts on both sides, the burial site is bright and full of dragon energy, ensuring generations of prosperity and a stable fortune...

...

This formula for gathering Qi from dragon veins is arguably the most complete one preserved in Taoist feng shui books.

It's a pity that even if it were complete, even if it were publicly displayed, no one in ancient times would have dared to use it.

Because if anyone other than the emperor were to use it, it would be considered treason, not even the crown prince.

Legend has it that after an emperor experienced the auspicious energy-gathering formation of a dragon vein, he forbade others to use it and, in order to prevent it, ordered all the dragon veins in the land to be destroyed.

Unfortunately, the emperor didn't understand feng shui or geography. It was not something that could be cut off by human power. He was also fooled by his subordinates into thinking that all the dragon veins in the world had been cut off.

Now that we see that Minister Ma is actually going to set up such a feng shui formation, how can we not be surprised?

However, modern society doesn't care about this anymore, and there are no more games like "Clan Nine Elimination" (九族消消乐).

Minister Ma was even more surprised, because in the blink of an eye, he saw the head of the Chen family take out a coin from his Taoist robe and make it into a long sword.

He naturally recognized it as the Five Emperors Sword.

Their department has also produced quite a few Five Emperors Swords, and they already have special instruments to test whether the Five Emperors Swords are effective and their quality.

As long as there is a suitable geographical location, the Five Emperors Sword can be activated using that special instrument, and everything will be immediately clear.

Finally, the car entered the mountain valley.

As he got off the bus, he witnessed another shocking scene: the white array lines drawn by the Feng Shui Spirit Record Stone outlined a dragon-shaped phantom, which remained motionless, as if it were a dead object.

This is because the formation has not yet been activated, and it has not even been successfully set up yet; it is still in the process of finding the dragon's lair.

Of course, looking towards the capital, he saw that terrifying crimson dragon again.

Their car had traveled quite a distance from the city center, but given the size of that crimson dragon, it was probably only a few steps away from here.

That's truly terrifying.

When Chen Han got out of the car, he naturally attracted the attention of everyone in the canyon. These people were able to appear here because they had all studied feng shui to some extent.

After all, it's a special intelligence analysis department. If someone doesn't even know what feng shui is, they certainly wouldn't be recruited.

“It’s that Chen family head,” a young man said in surprise.

The people around nodded and all looked over.

They had tried countless times in this canyon, but the feng shui formation had not been activated at all, leaving them helpless.

Some of them had suggested inviting the head of the Chen family to provide guidance, and they didn't expect that the leadership would actually bring him over.

An older expert frowned and said, "I'm afraid that someone so young might be using feng shui books left by their ancestors, impersonating them, and not actually having much ability. It's all just hype."

Another young man said, "Old Wu, that's not quite right. We didn't get the feng shui of Sima Chengzhen's residence right. In the end, he spent some time fixing it."

Old Wu, however, was unconvinced: "That's only because the other party has mastered the core knowledge. If it's about the openness of knowledge and fairness, under the same conditions, would we be worse than him? We can easily control the feng shui of Sima Chengzhen's residence now."

The young man pursed his lips upon hearing this, clearly not wanting to argue about it.

Under the same conditions, you also need to have the same foundation.

Many famous experts have a problem: they believe in the supremacy of their own words, that everything they say is right, and that they stand in an authoritative position and think that no one else is good enough.

Simply put, it's taking advantage of one's age and seniority.

Some people even think that because they have the title of expert, they can say something like "the bride price in society is not high enough" and people will believe them.

No, some people actually believe it; those fairies are believers.

Thinking about this, all I can say is, I'm truly impressed.

Moreover, he knew what Old Wu was thinking, since the other party was now in charge of a group, leading them in the analysis and drawing of feng shui formation diagrams.

This makes the other person feel like an authority figure, naturally leading to resentment towards others, especially those younger than them.

Therefore, ignoring such people is the best approach.

Minister Ma then took out a walkie-talkie and said, "Leaders of all groups, come over here. I've invited an outside helper for everyone. Please meet him."

As he spoke, many people walked over, including Old Wu.

Once everyone had arrived, Minister Ma continued, "This is someone you all should recognize. He is the head of the Chen family, who proposed the science of Feng Shui. He is also a top expert in Feng Shui and has been awarded the title of 'Grand Scholar'."

Everyone does indeed know each other.

To be honest, all of them should thank this person properly. Do I even need to explain why?
Without the other party's explanation of the science of Feng Shui and the confirmation of its practicality, their department would not have been established, they would not have been recruited, and they would not have received such good treatment.

You don't even need to take the civil service exam to get a secure job in Beijing. Just thinking about it makes me feel incredibly happy.

Minister Ma said with a smile, "The reason we invited Patriarch Chen here this time is to have him help us investigate the feng shui formation in front of us and give us some guidance."

Most people applauded when they heard this.

Especially those who are young, they admire capable people, particularly those who are their own age and capable.

Old Wu was also clapping, after all, he had to maintain appearances. However, while clapping, he also had a smile on his face that made it impossible to tell his true intentions: "Patriarch Chen... ah... ouch..."

He had barely uttered his words when he suddenly did a split and let out a painful howl.

At an age like that, doing the splits must be incredibly painful.

Chen Han gently withdrew his raised hand, glanced at the other person, and said calmly, "At your age, if you don't have much ability, you should just retire peacefully. You've been working on a formation for so long without any progress. What kind of team leader are you?"

Minister Ma was taken aback by these words. He frowned and looked at Old Wu, then directly instructed his secretary, "Let Expert Wu go for recuperation. We should also be considerate of the old comrade and arrange some light work for him afterwards."

He knew the Chen family head's abilities well; the old man had done the splits the moment he appeared and said just one sentence. With the Chen family head's words, he understood exactly what was going on.

If you want to act like an expert, don't do it in front of this person.

They were probably going to say something to the Chen family head, but the Chen family head didn't give them a chance.

The secretary standing nearby didn't hesitate and immediately arranged for someone to help the expert, Mr. Wu, out.

Many others who witnessed this scene were gloating, clearly disliking the expert.

Chen Han had already walked into the canyon. Inside the canyon, he could clearly see the lines of the feng shui formation outlined by the feng shui spirit stones all around.

Moreover, just like the Thunderfire Refining Gold Peak of Wudang, there were errors in the layout, the feng shui stones were placed incorrectly, and even some places that should not have been dug had been dug up with trenches.

It's all half-baked knowledge; they try to understand profound things with only a superficial understanding, and they're nothing special.

However, he suddenly looked in a certain direction, his face full of surprise.

You can see that there are some special instruments there, and the Five Emperors Sword is placed on those instruments.

The key point is that the Five Emperors Sword is clearly effective, and it seems to be communicating with the surrounding geography and terrain through that special instrument.

This is truly surprising.

This is probably what true integration of technology and spiritual cultivation looks like, right?

Almost the instant the thought crossed his mind, the game notification appeared:

[New game section loading... System detection has found new data packet fragments, data packet (4) fragments are being collected...]

"???" Chen Hanzhen was surprised.

Suddenly, data packets started being collected again.

We haven't been able to collect data packet (3) yet, and now we're collecting another data packet (4).

This is really unexpected...

The key is that this collection takes quite a long time.

Take this data packet (3) for example. It has been collected for so long, but it has not been successfully collected.

At this moment, Minister Ma, who was following the court, couldn't help but ask, "Patriarch Chen, what do you think of our feng shui formation?"

“Our people set up the formation according to the contents of your two feng shui books, but after the setup was completed, we have been unable to activate the formation.”

That's right. After his conversation with that leader last time, someone delivered the two complete feng shui books written by the Chen family head and those Taoist priests.

This naturally involved some special methods. There are so many Taoist temples and monasteries, and while many Taoist priests are aware of the importance of secrecy, this awareness is insufficient against certain specialized military personnel.

Especially when these Taoist priests take out their books to study every day, they are often caught off guard.

In fact, they obtained the information from several temples and monasteries, and only began their research after confirming that the information was the same.

This method may be dishonorable from the Taoist perspective, but their stance is not wrong. After all, they are researching these things to serve 14 billion people and to protect this land.

Chen Han wasn't surprised by this, since he had given the two books to various temples and monasteries, knowing that the books wouldn't be kept secret for long and would soon be leaked.

Given the power that can be mobilized based on a single principle, it's not surprising that they were able to obtain these two books. In fact, it's possible that even after the Taoist priests obtained these two books, they were completely unaware of it.

Upon hearing Minister Ma's words, the people from the special intelligence analysis department also looked at Chen Han. They had indeed tried many times, but the adjusted feng shui formation simply did not activate.

Now that the Chen family head, who proposed the science of Feng Shui, has arrived, he should be able to answer their questions.

"Every part is completely wrong, how could it possibly activate the feng shui formation?" Chen Han spoke the truth without any tact.

These words did indeed cause the people in the special intelligence analysis department to frown slightly.

These words hurt them a little.

With so many people putting in their best effort, the result is that everything is ridiculously wrong.
Seeing the expressions on their faces, Chen Han said, "Minister Ma, have someone prepare paper and pen. I'll draw a diagram of this feng shui formation for you."

Minister Ma did not hesitate and immediately ordered people to make preparations.

In no time, paper and pens were all prepared for Chen Han.

Chen Han didn't waste any time and began leading people to walk around the mountains and valleys, as well as the surrounding mountain paths, to draw the feng shui formations and structures of various places.

This really took a lot of time. Even at night, Chen Han was still doing this, to the point that Minister Ma and the special intelligence analysis department were exhausted and couldn't keep up with his pace at all.

The severely limited visibility at night surprised everyone in the special intelligence analysis department, who whispered among themselves:
"Master Chen, can you even see this at night?"

"All I could feel was that when I looked around, it was all dark and gloomy."

"Could it be that Patriarch Chen's perspective is different from ours?"

Upon hearing this person's words, Chen Han really wanted to say that the other party had guessed correctly.

The lines of the feng shui formation outlined by the feng shui spirit stone are even clearer in the night.

Setting up such a large-scale feng shui formation that gathers auspicious energy from a dragon vein is no simple task; there are too many details to consider in the design and the surrounding geographical features.

The next day, he finally produced the feng shui formation diagram and handed it to Minister Ma: "Minister Ma, you can have someone set it up according to this feng shui formation diagram. As long as you follow the diagram without making any mistakes, and as long as you activate the formation with the Five Emperors Sword, there will definitely be no problem."

Minister Ma didn't hesitate when he heard this. He took the drawing and handed it to someone next to him, instructing, "Immediately conduct engineering analysis and arrangements according to Patriarch Chen's drawings, and then start construction immediately."

He had no doubts or questions whatsoever.

After all, he himself was an amateur, and the people in the entire department were all mediocre. They couldn't figure it out after all that time, so to question the blueprints produced by the Chen family head was just overestimating himself.

Therefore, in this situation, listening to the head of the Chen family 100% is the best choice.

After that, Chen Han no longer needed to handle the development arrangements. If he couldn't even handle things here properly, then Minister Ma and his team would have no reason to exist.

Minister Ma understood this principle, and seeing that Chen Han had been busy all night, he arranged for a car to take him home to rest.

Chen Han did not refuse. This feng shui formation was quite large, and if the Chen family were to set it up, it would definitely take a considerable amount of time.

However, Minister Ma and his team represent principles, so it's unknown how long it will take to complete this setup.

No one dares to underestimate the power of principles; a hospital was built in just a few days.

However, Chen Han did have the driver drive directly to the Robot Mech League venue.

There's also a beginner puppet competition this morning; I can go see how my junior sister does.

To be honest, it's a bit unfair for him to participate in this kind of competition as a beginner puppeteer, but he'll only participate this once. After that, let his junior sister have some fun.

As Chen Han got out of the car and entered the league venue, he heard the host's loud voice.

The match is about to begin.

When he arrived at the competition area, he saw his junior sister preparing.

The audience members also realized that it wasn't the Chen family head who was in control today. Many of them were attracted by yesterday's video and specifically bought tickets for today's event, just for the Chen family head's mecha.

As the match began, the junior sister had already started attacking with her novice puppet.

However, his junior sister wasn't as adept at controlling the novice puppet as he was, so she couldn't immediately defeat the opponent's robot.

The mecha actually looked a bit disheveled; it was its first time and it was nervous.

But this scene excited the audience even more, because if it could be controlled without the head of the Chen family, then could it be controlled by anyone else?

What if it's their turn?
If such a mech were to appear on the market one day, would they be able to buy one and control it?
The more they thought about it, the more excited they became, and they started shouting wildly.

It was just a difference in skill level. Even though Xiaoyu's control was a bit weaker, the outcome was quickly decided. She directly controlled her mecha to kick the opponent's robot over, unlike Chen Han who destroyed it with a single sword strike.

To Chen Han's surprise, after the match ended, two white lights also appeared on the opposing robot.

Is it okay if my junior sister goes?
This is probably similar to the battle between the Lion-Headed Goose and the Dog Demon Clan, where Dog Demon flesh would be obtained through combat.

So, Chen Han entered the robot fighting cage once again, pretending to observe the opponent's robot, but actually he was storing the loot in his game inventory.

[Special Formation Puppet Stone x2: This is a special puppet stone that can be used to modify a complete puppet. Using special techniques, this puppet can be integrated with the formation, becoming a protective puppet that controls the formation according to your commands, increasing the formation's power.]

It's this thing again, and it exploded twice at once.

If this can be integrated with the feng shui formation, then creating four patrolling Chen family protective puppets would be no problem at all.

After all, he had cinnabar, and all the other problems had been solved. He also had some basic spirit stones in his game inventory, which he had obtained quite a few from several demon-slaying dungeons.

But as he was thinking this, he suddenly realized a problem: he didn't seem to have any secret techniques in this area.

The notes state that a special technique is required to integrate the puppet and the formation.

This is just speechless.

I just hope that the afternoon and tomorrow's matches will produce something like this, otherwise it will be really embarrassing, having produced 4 unusable items.

"Senior brother." After Chen Han came out, Xiao Yu stepped forward in surprise, looking for praise, and asked, "How did I do just now?"

"Well done." Chen Han smiled and gave his junior sister plenty of emotional support. Seeing her happy expression, he smiled too. He could give her emotional support with just a few words. His junior sister's expectations were really too low.

To his embarrassment, his opponent in the afternoon match surrendered immediately, and there was no fight at all. The opponent's robot did not go on stage, nor did it drop any items.

The next day, even more embarrassingly, the opponent also surrendered.

This……

Chen Han just wanted to say, where is the backbone of these people?
Why surrender? Let's fight!

How will you know you're not good enough if you don't fight a match?

Hey!
Gan!
He didn't want to bring home a bunch of useless stuff.

When the competition ended, Chen Han saw that Minister Ma had come to his door again. Upon meeting him, Minister Ma said, "Patriarch Chen, we have set up the feng shui formation according to the feng shui formation diagram you drew, but we tried to activate the feng shui formation with the Five Emperors Sword, but we failed. It seems that the feng shui formation cannot be activated."

Chen Han was stunned when he heard this. The speed was truly astonishing. It had been done completely according to his formation diagram in such a short time.

This truly demonstrates the power of principles.

Upon hearing that the feng shui formation could not be activated, he inquired, "Minister Ma, could it be that your method of activating the feng shui formation is incorrect?"

Minister Ma explained, "We've tested our activation method at Sima Chengzhen's residence, and it's always successful. I don't know what's going on now, so we need the Chen family head to help us investigate."

Upon hearing about Sima Chengzhen's residence, Chen Han immediately knew that the feng shui formation he had repaired there must have been used as a practice room by the other party.

If the opponent can use the Five Emperors Sword to activate the feng shui formation there, they should also be able to activate the formation of the mountain peaks and valleys.

This only means that the other party's use of technology and machines to assist in the process must have some flaws, and it is definitely not that the method is ineffective.

Moreover, it's not that the feng shui formation diagram is faulty; it was created using feng shui spirit stones.

"Let's go take a look!" Chen Han thought to himself and followed Minister Ma, heading back to the mountain valley.

Upon arriving here again, Chen Han discovered that things had indeed changed somewhat. The Feng Shui Spirit Record Stone also indicated that the Feng Shui formation had been fully arranged, and as long as the terrain was connected, the Feng Shui formation could be activated.

The feng shui formation diagram created by the feng shui spirit stone is without any problems.

So he said to Minister Ma, "Minister Ma, there's nothing wrong with the feng shui arrangement. I will help you activate it, and then I'll tell you why you can't activate it."

"Thank you, Patriarch Chen." Minister Ma immediately expressed his gratitude and followed Chen Han toward the middle of the canyon.

People from the special intelligence analysis department have already gathered here, operating the special machines used in conjunction with the Five Emperors Sword.

Upon seeing Chen Han's arrival, they all turned to look at the Chen family head. Several of the older experts even had a hint of doubt in their eyes.

After all, Minister Ma mobilized all his resources and set up the feng shui formation as quickly as possible, but it couldn't be activated.

Isn't this just a waste of their time?

But the other party was so famous, and it was Minister Ma who invited them, so they had doubts but dared not question it.

Moreover, the consequences of Expert Wu's splits are still fresh in everyone's mind.

Chen Han naturally noticed these gazes but didn't pay them any mind. He simply ordered his men to remove the special machines and the Five Emperors Sword. Then, he raised the Five Emperors Sword in his hand, activated his true energy, and began to communicate with the surrounding terrain.

With his abilities, this step was naturally easy for him. He immediately began to incorporate the geographical features into the feng shui formation, activating the feng shui formation.

But as he manipulated it, his expression suddenly changed.

Because the terrain that had been stirred up suddenly calmed down to his astonishment, and then became completely still, no longer under his influence.

What's the situation?
For a moment, he held up the Five Emperors Sword as if he were performing a pantomime, looking somewhat like an idiot.
