Ding Runfeng glanced at Li Yuanfang indifferently and ignored him. He did not respond to Li Yuanfang's words, obviously ignoring the existence of Li Yuanfang.
He dared to challenge an opponent in the Yuanying Stage when he was in the Golden Elixir Period because he came from the Taixu Temple. He was born with a Pure Yang Body and had amazing talent. He also practiced the Pure Yang Mystic Heart Technique, a top-notch technique.
Li Yuanfang was in the Early-stage of Foundation Establishment. Ding Runfeng already had an idea after a glance and did not bother to argue with him.
A lion would respond to the provocation of tigers, leopards, jackals, and wolves. Even if a rabbit came to the bottom of its paw to make trouble, it would be killed with its paw. However, an ant coming to make trouble would not make the lion react at all.
The onlookers also felt that Li Yuanfang was a little rash.
If Li Yuanfang was Lin Feng's direct disciple, then he would challenge Ding Runfeng in the Golden Elixir Period when he was in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Everyone would more or less have some expectations.
Especially when the opponent was not an ordinary cultivator in the Golden Elixir Period, but Ding Runfeng, who was recognized as the number one sect in China and had extraordinary talent.
Formations were not his specialty, but he could compete with the Yuanying Stage Elder of the Hell Path who specialized in formations. Under the situation where the Yuanying Stage Elder did not use his supernatural power to suppress Ding Runfeng, he could not do anything to Ding Runfeng, let alone a mere Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator.
Moreover, this Li Yuanfang was not a disciple of Lin Feng. According to him, he was not even a disciple of Xuanmen Tianzong.
Li Yuanfang looked calm. He was not annoyed by Ding Runfeng's attitude of ignoring him. He just Silently watched Ding Runfeng and the Yuanying Stage Elder of the Hell Path fighting and changing formations.
"The seventh formation pattern, Yin advances and Yang retreats, Bing Chen advances Jia Hai, Geng Wu retreats Xin Chou." Li Yuanfang suddenly said.
Most of the cultivators present did not understand what was going on, but the three Golden Elixir Period disciples from the Naraka Dao of Hell shuddered at the same time. They took a closer look at the changes in the formation on the battlefield, and in the next moment, they gasped and turned to look at Li Yuanfang, who had a normal expression on his face, in shock.
At the same time, a strange light flashed in the eyes of the black-robed middle-aged man who was fighting with Ding Runfeng. The formation did not change as Li Yuanfang had said.
Among the onlookers, there were some who were more proficient in formations. They could vaguely see that if what Li Yuanfang said was true, there was an opportunity to restrain Ding Runfeng.
The black-robed middle-aged man did not do as Li Yuanfang said, not because what Li Yuanfang said was wrong. In fact, almost at the same time when Li Yuanfang said that, he had also thought of this change. However, when Li Yuanfang said that, it was not convenient for him to take action.
However, the black-robed middle-aged man was also secretly surprised. It was not surprising that he could see the flaws in Ding Runfeng's formation. After all, he had been immersed in the Dao of Formations for thousands of years, and the Reincarnation Sect's Hell Dao was even more specialized in formations.
However, Li Yuanfang, an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, could see through it as well, and he was even slightly faster. This was truly shocking.
Bai Xiqian's eyes also flickered slightly, and she looked at Li Yuanfang curiously.
"The 28th formation pattern, Four Six Revolutions, Seven One.
"The ninth formation pattern, Yin advances Yang retreats, Ji Si advances Bing Wu, Jia Zi advances Bing Shen.
"The 135th formation pattern, Old Yin becomes Shao Yang.
"The 87th formation pattern, Yin Qi increases by 30%, it can restrain the growth of the opponent's pure Yang."
The black-robed middle-aged man ignored him, and Li Yuanfang didn't mind either. He just kept on speaking, and in the end, the speed of his speech became faster and faster, and his words became simpler and simpler, dealing with the ever-increasing changes in the array formation.
"The 29th, Yin Yi Shen retreats Ren Hai, Yang Ding Zi advances Bing Yin.
"The 41st, Gui Water Qi increases by one fold.
"The 14th, Six Heavenly Dipper forms, lock."
The surrounding people no longer spoke, and they all looked at Li Yuanfang in shock. The expressions of the people who knew about the changes in the formation became more and more solemn. At first, there were people who laughed at Li Yuanfang for entertaining himself, but when they saw that the people who knew about the formation were extremely serious, they gradually shut their mouths.
Especially Bai Xiqian, who was from the same sect as Ding Runfeng, although her gaze was still gentle, when she looked at Li Yuanfang, her gaze was extremely solemn. This made everyone's hearts beat faster. "Could it be that this fellow is not talking nonsense, but has real talent?"
"But … how is that possible?"
Li Yuanfang, who had already become the focus of everyone's attention, acted as if there was no one else around him. His right hand pinched his fingers and calculated, and his mouth continuously pointed out the changes in breaking Ding Runfeng's formation.
The others did not know whether what Li Yuanfang said was right or wrong, but as the person involved, Ding Runfeng, could not be clearer.
In fact, if it was not for the black-robed middle-aged man's identity, and many of the correct responses had been pointed out by Li Yuanfang, making it difficult for him to use them, Ding Runfeng's formation would have long been broken.
The black-robed middle-aged man was also a formation expert, and he could also calculate many changes. He was only slightly slower than Li Yuanfang, but it was this slight difference, if he could seize the initiative, the situation would immediately change greatly.
At this time, Ding Runfeng and the black-robed middle-aged man could no longer continue fighting, and he could no longer ignore Li Yuanfang.
The two of them had a tacit understanding, and they both withdrew their formation, and looked at Li Yuanfang together.
The black-robed middle-aged man's gaze was also slightly gloomy. Although Li Yuanfang's actions were aimed at the Taixu Temple's Ding Runfeng, it had also made him lose face.
However, Li Yuanfang's talent in formations still amazed the black-robed middle-aged man.
It was true that if he and Li Yuanfang were to set up a formation now, the power of the formation would be several streets ahead of Li Yuanfang. Li Yuanfang's hundreds of formations stacked together would not be as powerful as one of his formations.
But that was because of the huge gap between the two of them in terms of the realm and transcendence energy. Just by comparing the changes of the formation, this tall and thin black-robed kid in front of him could actually slightly beat him.
"You just said that you are not a disciple of Xuanmen Tianzong?" The black-robed middle-aged man asked in a deep voice.
Li Yuanfang nodded, and said very seriously, "This junior has only received some pointers from the Master of Xuan Men, and has not had the honor of worshiping under the entrance wall. I dare not call myself a disciple of Xuanmen Tianzong."
The black-robed middle-aged man snorted coldly, "Heh, the Master of Xuan Men is really not an ordinary person. With just a little pointers, he has surpassed this old man's thousand years of hard work."
Li Yuanfang shook his head, "Senior Lin of Xuanmen Tianzong is naturally a learned man. This junior has received pointers from him, and has learned a little bit about the Dao of formations. I only have some understanding of dealing with the changes of Yin and Yang, but I have not dabbled much in other aspects of formations."
This was the truth. Lin Feng had intercepted some of the changes of the Yin and Yang Life and Death Formation for him to learn, mainly from the changes of Yin and Yang in the Six Paths of Life and Death.
Li Yuanfang was a strict and serious person, and he studied hard. He also had an outstanding understanding of the Dao of formations. During his time on the mountain, he had already learned some of the essence of the changes of Yin and Yang.
Therefore, in terms of the changes of the Yin and Yang, he was even better than the black-robed middle-aged man.
If it was the formation of other sects, it would not be comparable to the Old Ancestor of the Hell Path of Yuanying Stage.
Speaking of which, this was also Ding Runfeng's bad luck. The formations that he was proficient in were derived from the Pure Yang Profound Heart Technique, and were top-notch Pure Yang Formation Transformations. Although he had deduced the changes of Yang Qi to the extreme, it was still within the scope of Li Yuanfang's expertise.
Li Yuanfang's monotonous reply made the people around him laugh. But after laughing, they all felt shocked at the same time.
He was not a direct disciple of Lin Feng, and he was not even listed as a disciple of Xuanmen Tianzong. He had only received pointers from Lin Feng, and yet he had such exquisite attainments in formations. It was really terrifying.
"What's even more terrifying is the Master of Xuan Men …" Someone muttered to himself.
The black-robed middle-aged man was also speechless. He thought to himself, 'I've long heard that the Master of Xuan Men has mastered a top-notch formation, and its mysteriousness is boundless. It is comparable to the Mountain Guarding Formation of the Three Sacred Lands. It seems that the rumors are true. Even in formations, the Master of Xuan Men has deep attainments.'
Ding Runfeng stared at Li Yuanfang. His expression was still calm, but his gaze was focused. Slowly, he nodded, "Very well, just like the senior from the Hell Path just now, I won't use the difference in transcendence energy to bully you. Let's compete in the transformations of formations."
Although Li Yuanfang had repeatedly pointed out the flaws in the formation, Ding Runfeng was still confident. After all, there was a difference between an armchair strategist and a real battle. In a real battle, there were many factors that would affect the final outcome.
Li Yuanfang naturally understood this, but he did not care. He immediately cupped his hands, "Please enlighten me, brother."
At the side, Bai Xiqian looked at the two people who were about to start fighting and suddenly asked, "Brother Li, are you the disciple of Ancestor He Tu of the Arctic Ice Sea?"
Li Yuanfang was slightly stunned. Bai Xiqian smiled and said softly, "Xiqian observed that the method of calculating formations just now, although it is mysterious and varied, it seems that you are the disciple of Ancestor He Tu. Am I right?"
"Yes." Li Yuanfang nodded.
Bai Xiqian said softly, "Ancestor He Tu died in the Kun Peng's Treasury. It is truly a pity. Brother Li, please restrain your grief."
A sad expression appeared on Li Yuanfang's face, but he heard Bai Xiqian continue, "Speaking of which, Brother Li still has some ties with our Taixu Temple. Ancestor He Tu once met my master. Afterward, my master said that Ancestor He Tu's formation could be said to be the best among the rogue cultivators below the Nascent Divinity Stage."
Li Yuanfang looked up at her, frowned slightly, and did not speak.
Bai Xiqian smiled softly, "I wonder if Brother Li has seen your master's Heaven Rising Illusory Clouds Formation Chart?"
Li Yuanfang was silent for a moment, then nodded. When Bai Xiqian mentioned the Heaven Rising Illusory Clouds Formation Chart, he knew that she was not lying. Her master had indeed taught Ancestor He Tu the Dao.
Seeing this, Bai Xiqian and Ding Runfeng both smiled.
Unexpectedly, in the next moment, Li Yuanfang suddenly said, "In that case, this is a rare opportunity. Please give me some pointers on the Heaven Rising Illusory Clouds Formation Chart!"
The onlookers were stunned, and so were Bai Xiqian and Ding Runfeng.
Li Yuanfang's calm gaze had already shifted from Ding Runfeng to Bai Xiqian. He did not forget Ancestor He Tu's teaching and nurturing. If it was another time, another place, and another situation, he would be very respectful to Bai Xiqian and Taixu Temple.
But in the current situation, the other party was clearly using his kindness to suppress him, and it was purely with bad intentions.
Li Yuanfang was a pure and stubborn person. The more the situation was like this, the more he would not give in. Lin Feng had also given him a new lease of life, and the other party had insulted Xuanmen Tianzong, so he could not sit back and do nothing.
Bai Xiqian sighed. Ding Runfeng said lightly, "What I said before might have been a bit abrupt, but it should also be the responsibility of a true Xuanmen Tianzong disciple. What position do you stand on, overstepping your authority and meddling in others' affairs?"
You are not a disciple of Xuanmen Tianzong, so what are you doing?
Hearing this, Li Yuanfang's eyebrows suddenly twisted into a knot.
