Living in the world of cultivation

Shen Fang wanted to stay, but Su Fan kicked and scolded him and drove him away.

This guy was too noisy, a complete fool.

After sending Shen Fang away, Su Fan couldn't wait to return to the portable secret realm, and then took out the jade slip that Shen Fang gave him and placed it on his forehead.

For more than a year, except for going to Shenjiabao every month to listen to the master of the formation, he hardly left the house.

Every day, Su Fan studied and pondered the jade slip that Shen Fang borrowed from home in the thatched cottage, and started to be a primary school student from scratch.

He had never worked so hard in his two lives combined.

With these basic jade slips brought by Shen Fang, it was obviously much easier to study Shen Zhongying's inheritance jade slip again.

In the past, many contents were like heavenly books, and Su Fan couldn't understand them no matter how hard he tried.

Now he realized that he didn't even master some basic things about the formation, and he wanted to skip a grade to go to school.

Su Fan finally opened the door to the formation and began to systematically learn the knowledge of the formation.

Although Shen Fang was not interested in the Dao of Formation, he learned the basic knowledge of the Dao of Formation from a young age, just like other children in the clan.

At that time, even if he didn't like the Dao of Formation, he had to learn it, otherwise his father would really punish him.

So Shen Fang also started from the most basic, and gradually passed on the family's basic knowledge of the Dao of Formation to Su Fan bit by bit, just like he did when he learned the Dao of Formation.

Through the knowledge of the Dao of Formation in the Shen family system, Su Fan finally entered the door of the Dao of Formation.

It was not until now that Su Fan understood why the knowledge of the Dao of Formation was so profound, and the amount of the most basic knowledge alone was as deep as the sea.

Fortunately, Su Fan had some basics and had been immersed in the Dao of Puppetry for many years, so it was not difficult to learn.

Especially the puppetry of the Sulun people, which was also profound, and many aspects were related to the Dao of Formation of the Immortal Sect.

In fact, many Dao of Formation cultivators did not pay much attention to the basics of the Dao of Formation.

Even the Dao of Formation cultivators of the Immortal Sect, most of them only knew how to follow the map and blindly stick to the rules, and there were few innovative Dao of Formation masters.

To put it bluntly, most of the array cultivators are actually engineers.

A true array cultivator must first have a strong perception ability, and then have an extraordinary sensitivity to the complicated and obscure arrays.

There are countless ways for arrays to exist, and runes and array eyes can be matched at will, with infinite possibilities.

Many array masters do not need ready-made array plates at all, and can easily arrange arrays that meet the current situation according to the on-site environment.

There is no need for any array plates at all, and various arrays can be arranged at will by using the surrounding mountain shapes and water.

Such array masters must not only have rich theoretical knowledge, but also have creative thinking patterns.

Shen Fang has never understood why Su Fan attaches so much importance to the basic knowledge of arrays.

Like many children of the Shen family, when learning the basic knowledge of arrays, most of them are rote memorization, and they don’t try to understand it at all. They want to learn how to apply and make arrays as soon as possible.

There is no way. The basic knowledge of arrays is like a deep sea. Children who have learned arrays since childhood, how can they have so much patience to think about deeper things.

It's similar to basic subjects and applied subjects. After all, not many people are deeply engaged in basic subjects.

Most cultivators don't want to spend more time studying and figuring out the basics of formations.

They all want to make their first formation as early as possible and become a qualified formation cultivator as soon as possible.

However, Su Fan still has some ambitions for formations. He doesn't want to be an engineer.

If possible, he still wants to be a master of formations with profound attainments, and he can have unlimited possibilities when arranging formations.

So he has been constantly consolidating the basic knowledge of formations, mastering various runes and formations as much as possible, and having a deep understanding.

Shen Fang has also been working hard to become a sword cultivator. Although Su Fan's requirements are very strict, what he didn't expect is that this guy actually persisted.

Su Fan's teaching method is very casual. He is only responsible for teaching and never tests Shen Fang.

Anyway, you can practice or not. If you don't practice, forget it.

If it were someone else, he would have tried every possible way to be lazy, but although Shen Fang complained all day long, he had been gritting his teeth to complete all the tasks assigned by Su Fan.

Su Fan never expected that this middle school boy would really go all out for his dream.

This also greatly changed his impression of the eldest son of the Shen family.

At noon that day, Shen Fang came to Xishan Market again.

He sat cross-legged in front of Su Fan, drinking spiritual tea while boasting eloquently.

"Brother, if I continue to practice like this, when can I go out of the mountain..."

Su Fan rolled his eyes at him and teased, "You are just getting started, you are still a long way off..."

Shen Fang was unhappy when he heard it, and he waved his hand to sacrifice his flying sword.

"Swoosh..."

He pinched the sword finger with his hand, and instantly controlled the magic sword to rush out of the abode, and then flew up and down in the yard outside.

After a while, Shen Fang put away the flying sword, and then looked at Su Fan with a show-off look.

That means, hurry up and praise me.

Su Fan took a deep breath and put down the formation book in his hand.

"Do you think you have practiced well enough..."

Seeing Shen Fang nod, Su Fan stood up from the ground.

"Don't you want to leave the mountain? Then come with me..."

Shen Fang looked confused. When he saw Su Fan leaving the house, he hurriedly got up and followed him.

Su Fan led Shen Fang out of Xishanfang City, and then flew all the way deep into the mountains.

The two flew for several hours before landing in one place. They had reached the deepest part of the mountain.

There are more and more monsters here. Various third- and fourth-order monsters are all over the mountains and fields, and there are even fifth-order monsters.

"Give me your ring..."

After hearing Su Fan's words, Shen Fang was immediately stunned.

"Brother, what do you want to do..."

Su Fan was so angry at him that he laughed and cursed: "What else can I do? If I wanted to kill you, you would have died many times..."

After he finished speaking, he glared and said angrily: "Hurry up and hand over the ring. You are not allowed to cast spells or fly with your sword. You can only walk out of here step by step..."

Shen Fang was immediately stunned after hearing this, and said with a grimace: "Brother, do you want to kill me..."

"Didn't you say you wanted to go out..."

"That's not what I meant. What I meant was..."

Before Shen Fang could finish speaking, Su Fan interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

"Stop talking nonsense, don't you dare to do this? Then what qualifications do you have to be a swordsman..."

Seeing that Shen Fang still didn't speak, Su Fan chuckled.

"Okay, let's go back. If you still want to be a swordsman like you, you deserve to be the eldest son of the Shen family who spends his days eating and waiting to die..."

Shen Fang was also aroused by Su Fan and said loudly: "Who said I dare not..."

After he finished speaking, he took off the Najie from his hand and threw it to Su Fan.

Su Fan took the ring from him and pointed to his robe.

"Take off this top-quality robe of yours and change into an ordinary robe. Hand over the necklace around your neck, the communication array disk on your belt, and the protective jade pendant..."

Seeing that Shen Fang was speechless, he continued: "There are no external objects for sword cultivation. There is only one sword for one person..."

Shen Fang took off his robe as if he was angry, and handed the communication array, necklace and jade pendant to Su Fan.

He put on an ordinary robe that Su Fan threw to him, glared at Su Fan fiercely, and then walked out of the mountain alone.

Su Fan put away Shen Fang's things, glanced at his back with a smile, and then flew into the sky with the magic weapon.

Not long after Shen Fang walked in the mountains, he was attacked by a fourth-level monster.

In the past, even though he had no actual combat experience, with the various talismans and magic weapons in his hand, as well as the various spells he cast, he could still deal with a fourth-level monster.

But now he has nothing on him except a sword.

Although Shen Fang practices swordsmanship hard every day, daily practice and real combat are completely different things.

From the beginning, he was forced into danger by the fourth-level monsters, and his flying sword, which he had practiced well, was no longer as sharp as he thought.

"Brother...save me..."

"If you don't come out now, I will die..."

"Brother, I was wrong, I don't want to be a swordsman anymore..."

"Ah...I'm hurt..."

"You can't watch me die..."

Although Shen Fang screamed desperately, no one responded at all, and it seemed as if Su Fan had really left.

Now he was really scared.

From birth to now, when has Shen Fang ever experienced such a dangerous situation?

He usually brags, thinking that he can become a sword cultivator and become famous in Chixiatian.

But he never expected that the gap between dreams and reality would be so huge.

Now facing a fourth-level monster, it is so difficult to deal with, and even the chance to escape with a flying sword is gone.

When people are in adversity, they will burst into potential that even they can't imagine.

Shen Fang's strong survival instinct also made Shen Fang red-eyed, and he controlled the flying sword like crazy to attack the fourth-level monster.

Although he almost died under the claws of monsters several times, he managed to avoid them all.

At the last moment, Shen Fang finally used his flying sword to kill the fourth-level monster, but he was already covered in bruises and had no strength at all.

Fortunately, Su Fan left him some healing elixirs, and he was able to control his injuries.

Shen Fang already regretted it, but now it was too late.

Because no matter how he called Su Fan, he didn't get a single response.

In the next ten days, Shen Fang walked alone to the outside of the mountain with a sword and experienced several fierce battles along the way.

There were dangers every time, and one time I almost died.

Of course, the dangerous environment also brought out all of Shen Fang's potential. As he fought life and death battles with monsters again and again, his combat experience began to rise on its own.

These dangers are just a matter of getting used to them. The most troublesome thing is how to solve the problem of food, clothing, housing and transportation in the deserted mountains.

Shen Fang, the eldest son of a cultivator family, has always stretched out his hands for clothes and opened his mouth for food since he was a child. When did he ever do these things?

But the reality is that he can only force him to do it, or he is really hungry.

In these days, Shen Fang learned how to build a simple temporary shelter, how to use fire to roast the flesh and blood of monsters, and how to avoid harassment by insects, snakes, and rats.

At this moment, his image was very miserable, and he was no longer human.

Not only was his body covered in scars, but his ordinary robe had also become tattered, just like a beggar outside.

This guy tried to control the flying sword to leave the mountain several times, but he was attacked by flying monsters and almost died in the sky.

There was no way. The flying monsters in the mountains were extremely ferocious, and the cultivators could not fight them with magic weapons.

In the end, Shen Fang could only walk out honestly and never dared to have any improper thoughts again.

And Su Fan has not shown up until now, which means that he has really left. Now if he wants to get out of the mountain, he can only rely on himself.

These days, Shen Fang kept cursing Su Fan.

Even when he was fighting with the monsters, he would curse loudly while fighting, desperately venting his grief and anger.

After walking in the mountains for nearly a month, Shen Fang finally saw the hope of getting out of the mountains.

At this moment, Shen Fang burst into tears.

It was too difficult.

What kind of life he had these days.

Every day he could only eat some tasteless burnt barbecue, and his mouth was full of disgusting bloody taste.

At night, he could only sleep in the wild or in caves. Not only did he have to be bitten by mosquitoes, but he also had to face the attacks of monsters all the time.

This month, he had to sleep with half an eye open.

Shen Fang had already made up his mind that he would never pay attention to that guy again when he walked out of the mountains.

What the hell is a sword cultivator? Isn't it good for me to be a young master at ease?

Shen Fang couldn't help but get excited when he thought that after he got out of the mountains, he could go to the city to eat all kinds of delicious spiritual food and sleep with a few beautiful girls.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and his pace became faster.

Suddenly, Shen Fang's eyes condensed, and he rolled to the side without thinking.

"Bang..."

He saw a sharp claw hit the place where he was just now, digging a big hole in the ground.

"Fourth-level monster..."

This is already the edge of the mountain, how could there be a fourth-level monster.

Unfortunately, he didn't have time to think about it, and saw a ferocious monster several feet tall turned its head and roared at him loudly.

"Fuck... a fourth-level demon beast 'Black Bone Tiger'..."

What the hell is going on? How could this big guy appear here?

"Awoo..."

At this time, another shrill roar came from the dense forest next to it, and another "Black Bone Tiger" rushed out of the forest.

"Two fourth-level 'Black Bone Tiger', did I offend the Taoist ancestor..."

"Black Bone Tiger" like this is usually a solitary demon beast. Except during the mating season, there will be two of them at the same time.

Shen Fang has been completely desperate. Is he really going to die here today?
