This Five Elements Dragon Locking Formation was a formation that locked spirit veins so that it could extract the spirit vein's origin.
Any spirit vein with a bit of scale would extend out in a line.
To lock a spirit vein, the distribution of the formation's formation eyes must be close to the spirit vein.
Therefore, a senior expert in the Dao of Formations created a formation with an uneven distribution of the five elements formation eyes.
The Five Elements Dragon Locking Formation only targeted spirit veins and had no use in terms of attack or defense.
After the Five Elements Daoist obtained this formation, he was very interested in the unique distribution of the five elements formation eyes. Using this as a foundation, he made improvements and added many offensive and defensive functions.
After the improvements, he did not change the name and called it the Five Elements Dragon Locking Formation.
The modified Five Elements Dragon Locking Formation had a total of twenty-six formation eyes.
Among them, there was one non-elemental core formation eye and one elemental core formation eye.
Each elemental core formation eye had four auxiliary core formation eyes.
Because there were five elemental core formation eyes, the controller only needed to control one core formation eye to be able to unleash the power of a single elemental formation. This was the common characteristic of all Five Elements Formations.
The non-elemental core was added later by the Five Elements Daoist. Originally, this formation needed five people with different elemental attributes to control.
In order to make this formation more suitable for penta spirit veins cultivators, the Five Elements Daoist added the non-elemental core formation eyes.
Penta spirit veins cultivators would be able to control five elemental core formation eyes at the same time.
The five elemental core formation eyes were unevenly distributed and different elemental spiritual power could not be converted well.
When the spiritual power was unbalanced, the non-elemental core formation eyes would need to extract non-elemental spiritual power and split it into the five elemental attributes to support the formation eyes of each attribute and balance the five elemental spiritual power in the formation.
The twenty ordinary formation eyes belonged to the five elements and were distributed between the non-elemental core formation eyes and the five elemental core formation eyes. They only served to transfer and store spiritual power.
After all, the five elemental core formation eyes were distributed on a small mountain range and were relatively far away from each other.
To ensure that there were no problems with the transfer of spiritual power, the ordinary formation eyes were needed as a transfer point.
The offensive and defensive functions of an ordinary formation relied on the cooperation of the core formation eyes and the ordinary formation eyes to complete.
The ordinary formation eyes of the Five Elements Dragon Locking Formation were all used to connect to the core formation eyes.
If the formation eyes were added, it would make the formation overly complicated and its complexity would even surpass that of many Tier Three formations.
As a result, the amount of materials required and the difficulty of setting up a Tier 3 Array Formation exceeded that of a Tier 2 Array Formation, but its power was only a Tier 2 High Grade Array Formation. In that case, this Array Formation had no meaning at all.
Furthermore, the more complicated the formation, the easier it was for problems to arise, and the less reliable it was.
In order to reduce the complexity of the array, the array was set up using magic tools.
The offensive and defensive functions of an array formation were entirely dependent on the Dharma artifacts. This was also one of the schools of array formation, known as the Dharma artifact school.
The array formations in the Five Elements Mystery Realm also belonged to this school of thought. The Dharma artifact that held down the array formation was the Five Elements Heaven Suppression Seal.
The advantage of the Artifact Type Array Formation was that it was easy to set up and simple. Originally, it required many Array Cores to cooperate with each other to achieve its function. Now, it only needed one core Array Core and an Artifact.
The disadvantage was that the cost was high, and the materials used to set up the array could not be compared to the cost of the same grade of array artifacts.
The array formation was extremely suitable, but the price to set up this array formation was also quite high.
The six core array eyes all required Tier 2 materials to be set up, and they also required a Tier 2 high grade Dharma Artifact to hold down the array.
To set up a large array that covered the entire Jadesong Mountain, the amount of materials needed was definitely not small.
Although Wang Daoyuan was very rich, he lacked the materials needed to set up the array in the Spirit Pearl's space. Only the Red Scaled Pine could be used as a fire attribute material.
The materials for the Wood attribute Array Core were easy to find. Although the Jadesong Pine was too dense and was not suitable for the transmission of spirit energy, it was not suitable to be used as an Array Core material and a connecting material. However, the Golden Silk Jade Peach was very suitable.
He still had no idea what to use for the Metal, Earth, and Water attribute materials.
As for the Dharma artifact holding down the array, there was no need to directly use a Tier 2 high grade Dharma artifact.
This array formation was to defend against Tier 2 demonic beasts. With five Qi Refinement cultivators of the five elements controlling the array and cooperating with each other, using a Tier 2 medium grade Dharma artifact to hold down the array, it was enough to deal with the attack of a Tier 2 high grade demonic beast.
In the future, when there were better Dharma artifacts, they could completely replace the Tier 2 medium grade Dharma artifacts.
Including the materials for the Array Core and the connecting materials, they could all be replaced.
He had two Tier 2 medium grade Dharma artifacts on him that could be used to hold down the array. They were the Black Gold Sword and the Distant Fire Sword.
With these two long swords, the array formation's attack methods were no longer lacking.
As for the remaining three Dharma artifacts, he could arrange them into defensive Dharma artifacts and auxiliary Dharma artifacts.
As for the materials for setting up the array, he would leave it to the Twelfth Uncle and the Third Brother to think of a way.
Wang Daoyuan left several hundred Soul Chasing Bees here to monitor the situation. He himself returned to Jadespring Peak and reported his needs.
Previously, at Fifth Great Uncle's Purple Mansion Grand Ceremony, he had received many gifts, including Tier 2 Dharma artifacts.
Using a few Dharma artifacts to set up the array wasn't a big problem.
Although the clan now had more properties, and the status of the spiritual wood and ore business was much lower than before, they were still one of the pillars of the clan's economy.
He could still obtain quite a few Tier 2 spiritual materials of the five elements.
Setting up the array was also for the clan's benefit. It was reasonable for him to ask for a few Dharma artifacts and some Five Element materials.
After he returned to Jadespring Peak, he reported this matter to the Twelfth Uncle.
Now that the Wang Clan had become a Purple Mansion Clan, they were much more confident. The Twelfth Uncle's entire aura was different.
After he heard Wang Daoyuan's plan to use a mid grade Tier 2 Dharma Artifact, he shook his head and said, "Our Wang Clan currently doesn't lack such things. Isn't it just five Dharma artifacts of the five elements?
Why use a mid grade Tier 2 Dharma Artifact? Just use a high grade Tier 2 Dharma Artifact.
As for the other materials, our clan doesn't lack them either. If you see any suitable materials, you can have as many as you want. "
Hearing this, Wang Daoyuan teased, "Twelfth Uncle, your temperament is different now. You have the demeanor of a Purple Mansion Clan Leader."
Hearing this, Wang Shouye smiled and said, "One's attitude needs to match their strength. Now that we've become a Purple Mansion Clan, we still need to bring out the imposing manner we should have.
The best disguise is to act normal. If we act humble like before, it would instead arouse suspicion. "
Wang Daoyuan was deeply moved by this. When changing one's appearance and walking outside, the best disguise was to be similar to the people around you.
After Wang Daoyuan stated his requirements, Wang Shouye immediately took out five high grade Tier 2 Dharma Artifacts from the treasury.
They were the Gold Fiend Soul Severing Sword, the Raging Flame Gourd, the Thick Earth Shield, the Bewildering Mist Forbidden God Net, and the Five Poison Pearl.
The Gold Fiend Soul Severing Sword was extremely sharp. Simply activating it could release a baleful sword qi that could injure both the body and the soul.
As long as the Raging Flame Gourd could absorb fire attribute spiritual qi, it could produce flames within the gourd.
The gourd also had an internal space similar to a storage pouch that could store flames.
When fighting, one could use spiritual sense or spiritual qi to activate it and release flames.
The Thick Earth Shield's function was the simplest. It had high defensive power and could withstand all kinds of attacks.
The Bewildering Mist Forbidden God Net could release a large cloud of mist that had the effect of concealing spiritual sense.
The Five Poison Pearl could absorb wood attribute spiritual qi and convert it into poison.
When facing an enemy, it could release poisonous mist to attack the enemy.
In addition, it could also absorb poison from the outside world. It was extremely effective against demonic beasts and cultivators who played with poison.
With these five Dharma Artifacts, there was no longer a need for Foundation Establishment cultivators to guard the formation. As long as five peak Qi Refining cultivators were assigned to guard the formation, they would be able to resist the attacks of multiple high grade Tier 2 demonic beasts.
As for the materials for the formation eye and the materials for connecting the formation eye, the clan had no lack of them.
Guarding many mines and forests, it was extremely easy to gather several Tier 2 formation eye materials and Tier 1 connecting materials.
