Chapter 2198
“Okay, then I’ll really test you. If you can’t answer, don’t blame me for punishing you!”
The old ghost didn’t say anything and directly agreed to Xiao Chen’s proposal. After all, this matter was of great importance and he didn’t have any shame. He naturally had to test Xiao Chen. He was very strict with his disciples.
“Then please test me, Master. I’m ready!” Xiao Chen said calmly again without any stage fright.
“Okay, then I’ll ask you. What do I need to pay attention to if I go against the direction of the formation?
What kind of situation can’t I go against?
If I force it, what will happen? “The old ghost threw out two questions in an instant.
These two questions belonged to the very last ones in the ancient scroll. They were not easy to understand. Since Xiao Chen said that he had completely mastered the knowledge of the ancient scroll, he naturally chose very difficult questions! “If you go against the direction of the formation, you need to be in harmony with the space. In the process of going against the direction of the formation, it may cause a riot of the space power and lead to the failure of the formation.
There is no good way to accomplish this. You can only rely on your own control of the formation and regular practice to achieve the level of going against the direction of the formation at any time. If the space is not very stable, or if the direction of the space has changed and is not in line with the most basic five elements, then you can’t use it to arrange the formation. At the same time, you can’t arrange the formation in some special terrains. Otherwise, there will be a terrible backfire. Once you go against the direction of the formation, you must remove the formation as soon as possible. If you can’t remove the formation at the first time, or if the formation is already out of control, you must immediately isolate the space power from pouring into the formation. At the same time, you must try your best to learn how to destroy the unfinished formation. If you really can’t do it, you must escape as soon as possible to prevent the formation from going against the direction of the formation and cause serious injuries! ”
Xiao Chen’s face was as calm as water. He instantly answered all the questions of the old ghost. There were no records of these questions in the ancient town, but he answered them very smoothly. It was quite like a teacher testing a student in school.
Old Ghost’s eyes were filled with surprise when he heard Xiao Chen’s reply. He didn’t expect Xiao Chen to have grasped so much knowledge from the ancient scrolls. The knowledge of formation mechanics was very difficult to grasp, and it wasn’t easy to understand. The fact that Xiao Chen was able to answer in such a manner meant that he had a very deep understanding of the reverse formation. After all, Xiao Chen’s answer was very straightforward. Even if Old Ghost was the one answering the question, he might not have been able to give a better answer.
“Well, it seems that you have really mastered a lot. Then, let me ask you another question …” The old ghost nodded. The anger in his heart was a little bit angry at Xiao Chen. He felt that Xiao Chen most likely didn’t lie to him!
Xiao Chen also quickly answered the second question of the old ghost. Then, the old ghost asked the third question. Xiao Chen still didn’t have any hesitation. He answered the old ghost’s question very smoothly. Then, the old ghost asked a few more questions. All of them were smoothly and accurately answered by Xiao Chen.
After a series of more than ten questions, the old ghost smacked his mouth and stopped. He found that there was really nothing more to ask.
Although there was a lot of knowledge recorded in the ancient scroll, he had asked all the key points and difficult points. Xiao Chen didn’t suffer any interference and answered very accurately. This was enough for the old ghost to judge that Xiao Chen really didn’t lie to him. He really had completely mastered the formation knowledge in the ancient scroll!
It’s only been four months!
The old ghost thought about how Xiao Chen only used a short period of four months to complete the knowledge that should have been mastered in a year. In the end, his heart couldn’t help but burst with excitement and joy!
Genius!
Monster!
Xiao Chen was truly a monstrous genius. The old man had never thought that he would underestimate Xiao Chen’s talent in the art of formations. It was truly worth it for him to be able to have such a monstrous disciple in his lifetime. For people like him, there was nothing more gratifying than having such a monstrous genius as his beloved disciple to inherit his legacy.
Xiao Chen looked at the surprised expression on the old ghost’s face. He rolled his eyes and took the initiative to ask, “Master, do you have anything else to test?
This disciple is ready to answer at any time! ”
The old ghost was momentarily stunned when he heard this. He then stretched out his hand and knocked on Xiao Chen’s head. He couldn’t help but laugh and scold, “You little thing, are you still pretending to be obedient? You know that this old man has finished asking, yet you still want to add another sentence?
Are you afraid that this old man doesn’t know that you have really mastered it? ”
“Hehe, my dear disciple, I just want to please Master, don’t I?” Xiao Chen laughed.
Looking at the old ghost’s expression and the old ghost’s actions, Xiao Chen was completely relieved. He knew that he had passed the first test and the old ghost must have completely regarded him as a personal disciple.
As for whether he could truly become the old ghost’s personal disciple and whether the old ghost would be willing to let him become Elder Zhang’s disciple, it would depend on his next performance.
The next performance was naturally to set up a formation. After all, no matter how good one’s theoretical knowledge was, one still had to rely on actual practice if one didn’t know how to set up a formation. If one couldn’t successfully set up a formation, then it would be useless no matter how much theoretical knowledge one had.
After a moment of joy, the old ghost pondered for a moment and said directly, “Boy, your talent in the way of formation has indeed surprised and even shocked me. However, as for whether you can really become a powerful formation master, it still depends on the process of setting up a formation. Therefore, since you have already mastered the theoretical knowledge two months in advance, then in the remaining two months, you need to personally set up a formation. This old man wants to know whether you can really set up a formation like this!”
“This disciple naturally wouldn’t dare to disobey Master’s instructions!” Xiao Chen said like an obedient child.
