Asking About Longevity Chapter 746

Chapter 746 Sword Style

 “This…isn't good…”

Ouyang Mu was a little stunned.

"What's wrong?" Mo Hua said, "I will protect you in the Demon Refining Mountain from now on."

"But, I am a disciple of the Tai'amen..." Ouyang Mu whispered. He glanced at the Taoist robe on Mo Hua's body, "Senior brother, you are from the Taixu Sect."

Mo Hua said matter-of-factly:

“You call me senior brother, whether it's Tai Amen or Tai Xu Men, what does it matter?”

“We need to open up the situation and don't stick to this sectarian view.”

“Furthermore, Tai'a and Taixu, and of course Chongxumen, have the same Qi Lianzhi, and there is a connection between our ancestors.”

“Counting back more than a thousand years, we are all one family, why are we being so polite?”

Ouyang Mu nodded slowly, feeling that what Mo Hua said made sense.

“But, I only know how to make weapons and swords, so I'm afraid I can't help you much, Senior Brother Mo.”

Mo Hua said: "Forging a sword is enough!"

He lacked someone to forge his own sword.

 Whether it's hunting monsters or fighting, there is no shortage of people in Mohua.

In the sect, whenever there is a fight, Cheng Mo, Situ Jian, Yang Qianjun and Hao Xuan are basically always there.

In the Demon Refining Mountain, the mountains and plains are filled with basically his "junior brothers". He could just whistle and call a group of people.

What's more, you can also learn ink painting yourself.

 His current means are already very rich.

    The insidious one has the skill of concealment, and the skill of self-defense and escape has the skill of fleeting step.

 In attack, there are formations, forbidden techniques, and sword control.

If he leaves the Qianxue State boundary, he can also "summon" Gu Changhuai and Uncle Gu from the Golden Core Realm, and he can also use the Gu family's secret order to mobilize the Gu family monks.

 There are enough manpower for fighting.

 But "professional" monastic talents are scarce.

 At present, there is a particular lack of swordsmiths with orthodox origins, inheritance, and talent.

Seeing that Ouyang Mu was still hesitant, Mo Hua's eyes flickered and he said:

"If you don't want to, forget it, I can't force you."

After all, Ouyang Mu is a disciple of Tai'amen, and he is also a direct descendant of the Ouyang family, so he feels a little conflicted if he is allowed to mix with himself, a disciple of Taixu sect.

 This is also human nature.

“Senior Brother Mo, I'm sorry…”

Ouyang Mu felt a little guilty.

 Senior Brother Mo treated me so well, but I ended up rejecting Brother Mo's kindness.

“It's okay,” Mo Hua smiled, “It's okay if you don't want to mess with me, then it's business. From now on, you can help me forge swords, and I'll give you merit.”

Ouyang Mu was startled and looked a little worried.

Mo Hua probably understood, so he asked: "Are you worried that your father won't let you make swords?"

Ouyang Mu nodded.

“Then you have to earn your merits, right?”

"want…"

“Did your father give you merit?” Mo Hua asked again.

Ouyang Mu shook his head, "No, Tai'amen has sect rules, and our Ouyang family has strict rules. Within the sect, you have to rely on yourself for everything, you can't bully others by taking advantage of others, you can't rely on your status for personal gain, and you have to do your own merits." Earn little by little…”

“In addition to making swords, are there any other ways to earn merit?”

Ouyang Mu thought hard, and finally admitted that he had no other way to earn merit except forging swords.

"That's it..." Mo Hua said, "Your father won't give you merit, and you have to earn it yourself. Then you can only make swords to earn merit."

“Besides, whether you learn to make swords or learn swordsmanship, these are all matters for the future. The most urgent task is to accumulate merit and practice well.”

 “Without the present, where would the future be?”

“So you just need to make the sword in a down-to-earth manner now, and don't think about anything else.”

Ouyang Mu couldn't help but nodded.

Mo Hua took the opportunity to put some more "pressure" on him and said solemnly:

“Besides, you have to think about it, there are many swordsmiths in the entire Qianxue State, and you are not the only one.”

“In order to practice sword making, a swordsmith needs a large amount of monster materials.”

“It is unique in that it can be stable for a long time, provide monster materials, hire you to make swords, and give you the opportunity to perform meritorious deeds.”

“If I miss it this time, I'm afraid I won't meet you again in the future…”

 When Mo Hua said this, Ouyang Mu immediately became nervous.

 Zong missions are up for grabs.

 He cannot compete with others. Apart from sect teaching, there are very few additional "sword-making" opportunities.

 If you refine it yourself, just the materials alone will require a lot of merit.

Ouyang Mu still remembers how much effort he put into getting the "Fire Demon Wolf Spine" used to make the sword.

 In the end, I still couldn't get it by myself.

 Senior Brother Mo had someone kill the fire demon wolf, peel off the backbone, and give it to him.

If you don't agree, I'm afraid there will be no such good opportunity to "forge a sword" in the future.

Ouyang Mu immediately nodded frequently and said:

“Senior Brother Mo, if you don't mind my superficial skills, you can come to me for any sword you want to forge in the future, and I will do my best!”

"good!"

Mo Hua nodded with satisfaction.

 After that he thought for a moment and said, "I'll give you the materials to forge six or seven of these golden spiritual swords just now. Then I'll think about it and forge some other spiritual swords."

 “Okay, Senior Brother Mo.”

Ouyang Mu agreed.

 After that, Mo Hua found the eagle demon that was strangled in the air by the sword energy and fell to the ground. He peeled off the materials and gave them to Ouyang Mu, asking him to go to the mountain gate to exchange for some merit and keep it for himself.

This poor kid has more than three hundred meritorious deeds all over his body.

If he doesn't help him a little, I'm afraid he won't even be able to afford a ticket to the Demon Refining Mountain...

Ouyang Mu was flattered, but he was too short of money to refuse, so he solemnly said in his heart:

　　I must make a good sword and repay Senior Brother Mo for his kindness.

 After leaving Demon Refining Mountain, the two of them returned to the sect side by side.

 Because Tai'a Mountain and Taixu Mountain are adjacent to each other, the road back to Zong is in the same direction.

As he walked, Mo Hua suddenly remembered a question and asked:

 “Xiao Mumu, how old are you?”

Ouyang Mu thought for a while and said, "I was born in March, the 2012th year of the Dao calendar."

The ink painting is a bit unexpected.

Xiao Mumu is actually the same age as me, and also a few months older than me.

 In total, I am smaller than him.

However, Xiaomu seems to be used to calling himself "senior brother", so there is no need to mention such a trivial matter.

Anyway, in Taixu Sect, there are a bunch of disciples who are older than me, calling me "little senior brother".

The two of them walked and chatted. When they arrived at the mountain gate, they went back to their sect.

Mo Hua returned to Taixumen, while Ouyang Mu returned to Taiamen.

Tai'a Mountain is simple and solemn. It is not as quiet and quiet as Taixu Gate. Instead, it has more craftsmanship from peak to peak and from brick to tile.

Ouyang Mu lowered his head and silently returned to his disciple's residence.

 He didn't say hello to anyone on the way.

 Of course no one greeted him.

　　In Tai Amon, he was alone most of the time.

 He is used to it.

Going straight back to his disciple's residence, Ouyang Mu closed the door and stayed alone in the room. He took out the sword diagram drawn by Mo Mo and looked at it again and again.

At the same time, he was thinking and annotating, thinking about how to forge the spirit sword better according to Brother Mo's wishes.

While thinking about it, the scene in Ouyang Mu's mind suddenly appeared in the ink painting of "controlling a sword" during the day, with golden light escaping from the sky and strangling the monster.

 Senior Brother Mo is so strong in sword control!

 So strong!

He was a bit clumsy in language and couldn't think of other words to describe it. He turned over and over again and could only lament the word "so strong".

Although Senior Brother Mo seems to have poor qualifications, his "sword control skills" are better than those of all the disciples of the same class he has seen.

Ouyang Mu was inexplicably excited.

This powerful sword-controlling technique uses a spiritual sword forged by oneself!

 Senior Brother Mo is still praising himself!

Ouyang Mu couldn't help but think that if the spiritual sword he forged was better and of higher quality, wouldn't his sword control skills be even stronger?

 What would stronger sword control skills look like?

Ouyang Mu thought expectantly.

Henceforth, Ouyang Mu became more active in making swords.

His character is serious and responsible, and sword making is still his hobby, so he is even more focused on refining the spirit sword.

 By the next ten days, he forged three more spiritual swords.

"Because I still have to practice and go to class, I can only forge in my spare time, so I only made three..." Ouyang Mu explained to Mo Hua.

 “It's okay, it's okay, it's already good.”

Mo Hua encouraged.

 After this period of time, Mo Hua discovered that Xiao Mu's sword-making talent was actually excellent.

 Just a little lack of self-confidence.

Moreover, due to the lack of sword-making materials and the fact that his father asked him to give up sword-making and learn swordsmanship, he was worried, so he couldn't let go.

“Don't worry, you can learn to make swords. Just tell me what materials you want. Also, if you have any new ideas or ideas about making swords, you can also mention them to me...”

 Mo Hua decided to cultivate Xiaomu's “unconventional” approach to weapon refining.

 Because of his own special situation.

Whether it's customizing a spiritual weapon or forging a sword, it's all different from the general weapon refining specifications.

If Xiaomu can rely on him, then he won't have to worry about refining weapons in the future and can focus on formations.

 Research the formation and design the formation diagram yourself.

 Xiao Mumu studies the weapon refining chart.

The researched items were then asked to be mass-produced by Master Gu, who was based in the Gushan Weapon Refining Shop.

 They have specializations in the art industry and can perfectly divide and cooperate with each other.

Mo Hua looked at Ouyang Mu expectantly.

Ouyang Mu was a little confused, but suddenly, he still felt that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavy...

 “Okay, Senior Brother Mo.”

 After that, Xiaomu made rapid progress.

 Ink painting started to let go little by little.

Not only did he have to refine the spiritual swords, but also some custom-made spiritual weapons. After Mo Hua explained the ideas and suitable formations, he left it to Xiao Mu to design the weapon-refining diagram.

Xiao Mumu carefully designed it, discussed it with Mo Hua, solved the problem of the formation, and then decided on the weapon refining formation diagram.

Mo Hua showed the weapon refining formation diagram to Master Gu, and was highly praised by Master Gu.

“This weapon refining array diagram is exquisitely conceived and suitable for use. According to my standards, it is almost impeccable..."

Master Gu pondered for a moment and asked, "Isn't this... something that the young master made by himself?"

 He still knows how much the ink painting weighs. In terms of formation, it is unfathomable.

 But when it comes to weapon refining, although I have wonderful ideas that are often unexpected, my foundation is too poor after all, and I often make common sense mistakes.

Mo Hua nodded and said, "I asked a junior fellow from a sword-making family to help with the design."

Master Gu was slightly startled and praised: "No wonder, the young master's junior brother has a solid foundation and a deep family background."

Mo Hua also nodded in agreement and said:

"Yes."

 After that, the spiritual weapon designed by Ouyang Mu was put into mass production through Master Gu.

 After making it, I tried it on the ink painting and thought it was fine.

 Enter the Demon Refining Mountain again, Mo Hua brought Ouyang Mu to the top of the Taixu Gate mountain to meet his "little junior brothers".

 Ink Painting introduces to you:

“This junior brother's surname is Ouyang, and his given name is the character “木”. He is a disciple of Tai'amen. He is very good at making swords. Please take good care of him in the Demon Refining Mountain from now on.”

 A disciple of Tai Amen?

 The Taixu Sect disciples were a little strange.

How come the disciples of Tai Amen are also hanging out with the younger senior brother?

 But the little senior brother always has a deep meaning in what he does.

Senior Brother, please take care of me, just take care of me.

What's more, Tai'amen has a relationship with Taixumen, so friendly exchanges between disciples are not a bad thing, and they are not exclusive.

The disciples of Taixu Sect raised their hands and said:

 “Hello, Junior Brother Ouyang.”

 Between sects, the seniority of brothers and sisters is first calculated according to the "generation".

 Those who are one year above are senior brothers and sisters, and those who are one year below are junior brothers and sisters.

 If they are in the same year, usually the calculation is based on age.

 The older ones are senior brothers and sisters, otherwise they are senior brothers and sisters.

Ouyang Mu is thin and looks a bit younger, so everyone calls him junior brother.

Ouyang Muwei's dark and dull face turned red for a moment, and he stuttered:

 “Hello everyone.”

 He has never been stared at by so many people at the same time.

I have never been called "Junior Brother" by so many people, so I felt a little at a loss for a while.

Mo Hua added: "In the future, if your spiritual weapon is broken and needs to be repaired, you can go to Junior Brother Ouyang."

"good!"

 The disciples of Taixu Sect said in unison.

 They usually have inherited spiritual weapons and custom-made spiritual weapons, which they will buy from the Gujia Merchant Pavilion "designated by the younger senior brother" in Taixu City.

 But if these spiritual weapons are broken, it will be troublesome to repair them.

 Especially spiritual swords, which are expensive and cumbersome to repair.

It would be best if a professional swordsmith can repair it.

 Let Xiaomu Mu meet everyone, which is equivalent to inviting him to "join the gang". The purpose of the ink painting was initially achieved, so he waved his hand and said:

“It's getting late, let's go hunting monsters.”

 “Yes, little senior brother.”

 Some people dispersed.

There were also some disciples who came up to Mo Hua in twos and threes and asked:

“Senior Brother, I'm not very good at using the demon hunting formation you taught me yesterday. Shouldn't I use my spiritual consciousness to activate it?”

"Is it because my consciousness is too weak? Why can't I control it..."

“Senior brother, tell me when you have time, **** the black bear…”

"I want to forge a pair of meteor hammers and use bear paws instead of hammers."

“Senior brother, are there any Taoist robes that can restrain the power of earth-type demons, and custom-made spiritual weapons that can break armor? I went to the Gu Family Shangge to ask, but they didn't know..."

“Senior brother, we are going to kill a money python later. The blood is relatively rare. Do you want to save the blood for you?”

Mo Hua tried his best to answer every question.

 The disciples received a satisfactory reply and dispersed.

Ouyang Mu on the side was shocked.

It was then that he realized that Senior Brother Mo's status in Taixu Sect was much higher than he thought.

Even his brother, who is extremely talented and gentle, is considered the leader of his class, and has a high prestige in Tai'amen, but he never has this kind of appeal...

Ouyang Mu looked at him with clear eyes, easy-going temperament, and no airs. He was like an ink painting of a simple young man, who seemed to be lost in thought.

 “What's wrong?” Mo Hua asked.

Ouyang Mu smiled, "Nothing..."

 For some time afterwards, Ouyang Mu became more conscientious and conscientious.

 The spirit sword in Mo Hua's hand has been optimized for several versions under Ouyang Mu's suggestion.

Each time you optimize, the power becomes stronger.

 But gradually, the quality of the spiritual sword has reached a certain limit.

 The power of Mo Huayu's sword has also reached a bottleneck.

“Senior Brother Mo, use the materials of the first-grade monster beast to fix the sword formation. Under the specific shape, the current power of the sword can only be so..."

“If you want to improve it further, you must use second-grade intermediate-level monster materials or above.”

“But these materials are more difficult to smelt. With my current level of cultivation, I can't use them well…”

“Secondly, there is the sword formation…”

Ouyang Mu came into contact with ink painting and understood the principle of "sword-handling" in ink painting. He felt that it was a bit tricky and also very "cheap".

But at the same time, he had to admit that this kind of sword, especially in the hands of the unfathomable Senior Brother Mo, was terrifyingly powerful.

Ouyang Mu said, "The power of this kind of sword control basically depends on the sword formation. The stronger the sword formation, the stronger the power of the sword."

“By the way, Senior Brother Mo,” Ouyang Mu asked Mo Hua again, “Are the sword formations passed down in your family only the gold-based sword formations?”

 “A sword formation passed down from the family?” Mo Hua was stunned.

Ouyang Mu was confused, "Didn't you tell me that?"

"Oh yes…"

 Almost forgot about the ink painting.

He told Xiaomu that the "Broken Gold Sword Formation" on his sword was the gold-based sword formation inherited from his family.

Xiaomu Mu has a good heart, so he believed what Mo Hua said.

 “Yes, that's right, it's passed down from my family.”

Mo Hua emphasized it again, then shook his head and said, "This is the only one passed down in our family, and there are no others for the time being."

From now on, whether the family will pass it on or not will depend on whether other sects or families give it to themselves.

Hearing this, Ouyang Mu felt a little regretful, "If there are other sword formations, we can try spiritual swords with multiple attributes and shapes."

Mo Hua sighed slightly.

really…

Then his eyes flashed and he asked: "Is it okay without using the sword formation?"

 “No sword formation?”

 "Use other formations, such as killing formations or something..." Mo Hua said.

Ouyang Mu shook his head, "That's not possible. Not all formations can be thrown into the sword casually."

“The sword formation is special. Although I don't know much about formations, from the perspective of making swords, the sword formation is the most suitable formation for the sword.”

“The sword weapon can also exert the power of the sword array to the greatest extent.”

“Other formations have low compatibility with the spirit sword, and can exert very little power through the sword.”

“If we really want to use it, we can only change the formation into a sword formation...”

Mo Hua was stunned when he heard this, and then said in surprise:

“Change it to a sword formation? Can the formation also be changed to a sword formation?!”

When Ouyang Mu was asked this question by Mo Hua, he suddenly felt guilty and was not sure.

He knew that Mo Hua was a powerful formation master, so when it came to formation issues, he spoke more cautiously:

 “This, I actually don't know either…”

Ouyang Mu whispered, "I overheard this from my father and the elder of the sect while chatting. I don't know whether it is true or not. I don't know if there is any error."

 “It's possible that I heard wrongly…”

Mo Hua's eyes were slightly focused, and he was thinking secretly in his heart.

 Little wood can't lie.

 This sentence...is not impossible.

 When he was drawing the sword formation before, Mo Hua didn't think about this aspect. When he thought about it now, he suddenly realized:

The "sword pattern" in the Broken Gold Sword Formation of the Broken Golden Gate is particularly like a "variation" of a certain type of gold-based formation pattern.

 Sword pattern is a modified formation pattern.

 Sword formation is a variant formation!

 This makes sense...

 I was very confused before Mo Hua. The categories of formations mentioned by Mr.

  But this does not include the sword formation.

Sword formation is a special type of formation, but it obviously cannot be included in any category from Liangyi to Bagua.

It would be much more reasonable to say that the sword formation is a "variant" formation.

 This category of variant formations does not conflict with the larger types of formations, but is intertwined with each other.

 Theoretically, any formation from Liangyi to Bagua can be changed into a "sword formation" through certain formation modifications.

 The Earth Fire Formation can be changed into the Earth Fire Sword Formation.

 The ground killing formation can be changed into the ground killing sword formation.

However, this kind of thing sounds simple to say, but in actual research, it must be extremely complicated and difficult.

 Otherwise, the sword formation would not be the top-secret inheritance at the core of the kendo family.

 Judging from the experience of formations in ink paintings, the unified variation of formation pattern, changing the formation pattern into "sword pattern", must involve the most profound and obscure type of formation theory.

 “What will be involved?”

 Hands on the ink painting, thinking hard, and suddenly thought of a noun:

 Streams!

 “Kendo Formation?”

 The formation flow involves the origin of the formation and is close to the essence of the formation.

 Comprehending the origin of the great avenue and controlling a certain type of "sword formation flow", can you transform the heaven and earth formations into "sword formations" through formation pattern changes?

Mo Hua's heart trembled.

 If this assumption is correct, then...

Mo Hua's mind changed rapidly and he continued to speculate:

If you apply the principle of counter-spiritual formation or spiritual energy fusion to the formation, and then use the sword formation flow to change the formation pattern, transform it into a sword formation.

Wouldn't that be enough…

 Spiritual power disintegration sword formation and spiritual power fusion sword formation? !
