Chapter 183 Mirror Flower Water Moon Formation, Thousand Jin of Spirit Rice Wine

Driven by curiosity, Xu Changqing soon arrived near the poplar tree.

Normally, in winter, in order to adapt to the cold climate, all the leaves on its branches should fall off.

Actually, they had all fallen off by autumn.

But now, some bright green shoots have actually sprouted.

As Xu Changqing released his spiritual sense, he simultaneously activated the Azure Lotus Creation Technique, stimulating the wood elemental power in his dantian and sensing it with extreme care.

Sure enough, they discovered that the interior of this poplar tree contained a rather rich wood spirit energy.

It should be noted that even the finest quality rice cannot reach this concentration, especially in winter.

It… actually achieved it.

Before this, the poplar was just an ordinary tree.

Especially after being repeatedly abused, its surface is covered with scars.

But now, it has not only grown taller, but even the previous scars have disappeared.

It should be noted that Xu Changqing currently possesses two types of spiritual roots, both of which are mutated.

Wood and fire.

The wood is a green wood spirit root, and its effect is natural and compatible.

Changes in all the surrounding plants can be detected quickly.

Since no one noticed it, it means that the changes in the poplar trees are not a problem.

However, after losing all its leaves in winter, it sprouts new buds in early spring, which clearly violates the laws of nature.

So far, Xu Changqing has only sensed a rich wood elemental energy within the poplar tree.

Apart from that, there was absolutely nothing wrong with it.

Faced with this situation, he couldn’t help but shift his gaze to the fortress.

This two-meter-tall puppet seems to be the first to notice the changes in the poplar tree.

No, it’s also possible that the changes in the poplar trees occurred after it arrived here!

To be honest, Xu Changqing didn’t know much about puppetry.

Much of the knowledge comes from books, which is rather one-sided and not very detailed.

All that is known is that behind the art of puppetry lies a new profession that has existed for just over a thousand years.

His name is [Puppet Master].

They created puppets with different attributes based on their own different spiritual roots.

Some highly skilled puppeteers create puppets that are said to be indistinguishable from real cultivators.

It can cultivate, fight, and even explore secret realms in place of its master, accomplishing all sorts of things.

If the changes in the poplar tree are indeed related to this puppet.

This indicates that it possesses some kind of special talent or effect.

Unfortunately, Xu Changqing knew nothing about this. It seemed that he could only find an opportunity to ask Chu Qiu or buy some books about puppetry.

Speaking of which, it seems that puppeteers have quite a connection with wood spirit roots.

It is said that the cultivator who invented the profession of puppeteer was a wood spirit root.

After observing for a while and seeing that there was no problem, Xu Changqing turned around and went back into the house.

However, he didn’t just sit idle; he took out a communication talisman.

who?

Han Xin!

Since we’re going to install an array, we definitely need to find a trustworthy array master.

The only array master Xu Changqing knew was this one.

Although the other party likes to drink and is always drunk, making him seem unreliable, his expertise, talent, and strength in formations are beyond doubt.

“Hiccup~ Who?”

“It’s me, Lao Han!”

“Xu Changqing?”

Are you free lately?

“I’m fine, what’s wrong?”

“I’d like you to help me set up a formation.”

Upon hearing that Xu Changqing wanted to create another array, Han Xin was quite surprised: “If I remember correctly, it’s only been a year since I helped you with the [Concealment Array], right?”

Xu Changqing said seriously, “As you know, I have more spirit fields here, and one [Concealment Array] is not enough. I need to make at least another one.”

Upon hearing this, Han Xin thought about it carefully and realized it was indeed true. Therefore, she asked curiously, “So this time, do you need the same [Concealment Array], or should we choose a different one?”

Xu Changqing voiced his thoughts: “Are there any formations that can enhance privacy?”

“privacy?”

After taking a big gulp of liquor, Han Xin pondered, “There are some, but they’re generally quite expensive. Are you sure you want to get them?”

Xu Changqing immediately became interested: “Tell me what they are first?”

Han Xin introduced them one by one: “The low-level ones are [Bamboo Shadow Formation], [Shifting Position Formation], and [Rising Mist Formation], while the high-level ones are [Mirror Flower Formation] and [Water Moon Formation]. These two combined are close to the Earth-level [Mirror Flower Water Moon Formation].”

Xu Changqing didn’t know what to choose: “How about you recommend one for me?”

Han Xin hummed a few times: “If it were me, I would definitely choose the advanced [Mirror Flower Formation] and [Water Moon Formation]. If I had money, I would arrange the [Mirror Flower Water Moon Formation] which is close to the Earth level.”

From the perspective of a formation master, one should not skimp on formations if possible.

If it’s even slightly off, it’s easy for others to see through it and even sabotage it.

The higher the level of the formation, the more complex it is, and the higher the level of defense it requires.

Xu Changqing asked thoughtfully, “What is the ability of this [Mirror Flower Water Moon Formation]?”

How many spirit stones are needed?

If the price is acceptable, simply choose the best formation.

This way, you can solve the problem once and for all and not have to worry about so many issues.

Han Xin explained in detail: “【Mirror Flower Water Moon Array】absorbs sunlight during the day to create a flower-in-the-mirror effect.”

At night, it absorbs moonlight, creating a moon-like effect in the water.

Whether it’s day or night, outsiders can only see things that appear to exist but are actually unreal.

Upon hearing this explanation, Xu Changqing immediately understood: “I see.”

The standalone [Flower in the Mirror] formation can only operate during the day.

My dear reader, there’s more to reading—even more exciting content awaits!

The standalone “Moon in the Water” formation can only operate at night.

Only when they are combined to form a near-earth-level “Mirror Flower Water Moon” formation can it operate continuously throughout the day.

Han Xin chuckled and said, “If I had to describe this formation in one sentence, it would be: sound in the air, color in the mirror, moon in the water, and image in the mirror—its variations are endless.”

Xu Changqing asked cautiously, “It must be… very expensive, right?”

Han Xin stated the price directly: “Considering that we’ve known each other for a long time, it would cost four hundred mid-grade spirit stones to sell to others, but for you, it only costs three hundred and fifty mid-grade spirit stones.”

“Hiss!” Xu Changqing gasped.

Admittedly, I do have that many mid-grade spirit stones.

Even the contents of the Azure Gourd could be sold for the price of the entire formation, with a profit to be made.

The problem is, what if pulling out so many mid-grade spirit stones at once arouses the other party’s curiosity?

Although the two had worked together once and had known each other for several years, they could be considered acquaintances.

In any case, it’s always better to be careful.

Seeing that the other party remained silent, Han Xin pondered and said, “It is indeed a bit expensive. If it really doesn’t work out, you can pay in installments, or use spirit rice wine to offset the debt.”

Xu Changqing’s eyes lit up: “I can only offer 150 mid-grade spirit stones. If the rest can be paid for with spirit rice wine, I would be very grateful.”

Han Xin was the most excited person. She subconsciously licked her lips and then asked, “How many kilograms of top-grade spirit rice wine can I get from you with two hundred mid-grade spirit stones?”

Xu Changqing carefully estimated for a moment, then replied, “One thousand jin!”
