Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 286 Completely Opened a Door
After killing a few dandies, Yang Qian immediately felt a significant change, that is, he became more idle.

Abnormally idle.

It can be felt that Liu Chuan and Ge Shuni are deliberately keeping a distance from him and are no longer taking the initiative to get close to him as before.

As for Zhou Ting, he had met him several times before, and his eyes swept directly over Yang Qian without stopping.

Only Juan still went to Yang Qian for a drink as usual, chatting about things in the imperial city and interesting things he had experienced in various places.

Yang Qian even felt that Juan was more enthusiastic than before, and they talked about more topics than before. Sometimes Juan would even tell Yang Qian about some secret things that were not to be told to others, such as some hidden functions of the Imperial City Guard.

Yang Qian saw these changes and understood what was going on.

Wasting time on these things? Yang Qian didn't have that idea for the time being. What he was thinking about couldn't be rushed, and he needed some time to wait.

Wouldn't it be good to have some free time? Yang Qian thought it was good. At least it would give him time to slowly realize the new door to the world that he had gradually opened.

Formation.

The purpose of pushing "Shallow Formation" to the Great Perfection was to practice "Shuo Qi" and also for the new low-grade magic weapon-level oxtail knife in his hand.

I didn't think much about it at the time, but now I realize that compared to refining equipment, the array itself is actually much more magical. In fact, refining equipment is only one aspect of the array application, and it is far from the whole array.

The more he understood, the more curious Yang Qian became.

So I couldn't help but maxed out the "Hundred Formations Diagram", which I had originally planned to put aside and not rush to gain experience points.

This is the method that consumes the most experience in Yang Qian's practice so far.

"Hundred Arrays": Perfection 7200/7200
A total of 13,500 skill points were used up, which was equivalent to spending all the krypton gold that had just been earned a few days ago.

Is it worth it?
The experience panel has never had any problems in measuring the level of skill. The effect you get from spending experience is absolutely commensurate with the experience you spend, and you won't be given a discount or asked to pay more.

Although "Hundred Formations Diagram" is called "Hundred Formations", there are actually far more than one hundred formations. It is not even an atlas of formations itself, but an advanced version of the principles of formations. It is mainly theoretical but also combines practice.

Unlike "Shallow Formation", which mainly discusses the basic construction principles of formations, their main categories, and the characteristics of each category, "Hundred Formations" digs deep into the essence of formations and uses these essences to open a door, allowing people to enter the world of power of heaven and earth.

In the power built by the essence of the formation, the large formation that Zhou Zhong built outside the city of Jizhou Prefecture was not even worthy of being mentioned.

It can even fully restore the power of heaven instead of just intercepting a portion of it!
The so-called formation originated from heaven and earth, and it destroys heaven and earth!
Thinking back to the formations he had engraved when refining the oxtail knife in his hand, Yang Qian now felt embarrassed. Could that be called a formation?
But theory is just theory after all. Even though Yang Qian now knows how to set up a powerful magic circle, he cannot do it in practice.

Lack of resources and lack of strength.

Although the formation is powerful, it also requires prerequisites to dig deep into the essence of heaven and earth. Yang Qian's current strength does not allow him to display all the contents of the "Hundred Formations Diagram". Even if he understands it all, he can only display 30% of it.

Then again, 30% may seem like a small number, but Yang Qian himself knows best how serious it is.

So whenever Yang Qian came back these days, he would be busy in his blacksmith shed. This time he used iron essence and copper essence, after all, these were the cheapest refining materials he could get.

At this time, Yang Qian also deeply experienced what it felt like to have high expectations but poor skills.

My mind was full of ideas, and I had even thought through every step, but when I started to work on it, I found that I made mistakes frequently, or it just couldn't be done. "Huh!"

After several days, Yang Qian finally made a palm-sized metal plate. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and thought to himself that although he had cut down on this thing, it was still difficult to refine it. The bottom line was that this thing was too difficult to refine, and his own refining skills were too poor.

Now that he could barely produce a finished product, Yang Qian felt that a large part of it was due to luck.

His eyes fell on the metal plate in front of him.

It is the size of a palm, hexagonal, and made entirely of metallic silver and dark copper yellow. It is high on the edges and low in the middle, and is engraved with complex patterns and symbols like stairs.

Yang Qian knew it best. He had carved a total of 31,834 magic array symbols on this small plate. The smallest symbol was not even the size of half a sesame seed. This was one of the reasons why he had failed in his previous refining efforts.

He took the plate in his hand and threw it to the ground. Suddenly, an invisible ripple surged from the ground, followed by the spread of mysterious magic array patterns. In just a moment, the area within a radius of twenty feet was completely covered by the magic array, and it kept changing, with three types of magic arrays: illusion, attack, and trap.

This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the source of power for these magic arrays is the earth. From the moment they touch the ground, the power of the earth within a radius of several miles is drawn over, and there is no need for Yang Qian to supply additional power to operate them.

It can be used right away, and the effect is excellent, and it does not require any effort to maintain. This is the most commonly used weapon of the array master: the array disk.

With this thing, Yang Qian felt that even if a great cultivator in the Nascent Soul Realm came, he would dare to fight him head-on.

After finishing the array plate, Yang Qian stopped refining. His refining skills were too poor, and making an array plate was simply torture.

After putting away the things, the sky began to brighten, and Yang Qian did not sleep for another night. He would always be too focused on something and forget the time passing by.

I used to do this, but I would always be pulled out of this state of high concentration due to hunger, urgency to urinate, or fatigue.

Now that Yang Qian was close to the Nascent Soul stage, he could almost ignore eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping. He didn't even feel sleepy after staying awake for several days.

It’s as if the “day” now has become shorter, but also seems to have become longer.

Go out in the morning.

Over the past few days, the mummies in Jizhou City have been cleared. The annoying smoke columns have also disappeared. The neighborhoods in the city that were not affected, or were not seriously affected, have gradually begun to return to normal.

For example, the breakfast stall outside Yang Qian's house has resumed business since the day before yesterday, but the two people who used to be a couple are now a woman and an eight or nine-year-old child.

No one asked where the stall owner's family had gone, because everyone knew what had happened. Apart from sighing, life had to go on.

"Morning, Sir Yang, what would you like to eat?"

"same as usual."

"Okay, please sit down for a while, I'll bring it to you right away."

Yang Qian had not been sitting for long when a bowl of oil tea, a boiled egg and three oil-fried fruits were brought up.

But before Yang Qian could taste it, he felt someone beside him. Turning his head, he saw a red-faced girl in school clothes standing beside him with a timid expression.
