The Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams, the Eight Gates of the Five Elements, the Mystical Shield Armor, and the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.
Qin Xiao quickly thought about these things. He wanted to find a solution. If he couldn't meet force with force, then he could only find a solution from these things.
The Five Elements reinforced and restrained each other, and the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams also had many elements that reinforced and restrained each other. Therefore, Qin Xiao believed that he should be able to find a way to deal with these eight gods.
"The Soaring Serpent belongs to the Water Element, the Gate of Rest belongs to the Water Element, the Northern Palace of Water.
"Wood restrains water, the Gate of Stop belongs to the Wood Element, the Southwest Palace of Earth.
"Wood restrains water —"
Bam!
The Soaring Serpent smashed heavily into Qin Xiao and sent Qin Xiao flying again.
This whip made Qin Xiao feel like his flesh was about to be ripped apart.
What a powerful force! Qin Xiao's immortal body was already slightly damaged.
"I can't let the Soaring Serpent hit me again, or I won't be able to withstand it and will really die here."
"I can't worry about that for now. I'll use the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams and the Mystical Shield Armor to deal with the Soaring Serpent. I hope it works."
Qin Xiao had been comprehending and cultivating the art of mechanisms. He'd been making breakthroughs in the art of mechanisms, but hadn't really put it to use in battle yet.
This time, he was going to put it to good use.
Bark!!!
The Soaring Serpent roared again, its momentum soaring to the sky.
Qin Xiao quickly formed hand seals with his fingers and murmured incantations. He used his immortal force to construct a formation, framework, and position. A magnificent Palace of Earth appeared out of thin air and fell from the sky onto the Soaring Serpent, trapping it inside.
The Soaring Serpent roared and thrashed wildly within the Palace of Earth. The Palace of Earth was on the verge of collapse. Qin Xiao could also feel the terrifying force of the Soaring Serpent's attack.
But Qin Xiao's immortal force naturally couldn't contend with it.
However, the Palace of Earth belonged to the Wood Element, which was the perfect counter to the Soaring Serpent. With the power of the Five Elements and the assistance of the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams, the Palace of Earth was able to trap the Soaring Serpent.
However, Qin Xiao also felt that the Earth Palace could only trap the Soaring Serpent, but it would not be able to trap it for long.
Qin Xiao could clearly feel that his immortal power was weakening. If this continued, the Earth Palace would be destroyed by the Soaring Serpent before long.
Therefore, the power of the Kun Palace alone was not enough.
The Earth Palace could restrain the Soaring Serpent, but Qin Xiao's mastery of it was still too weak. Her own strength was also relatively weak, so the strength of her control was also limited.
The Soaring Serpent's strength was probably on par with a great immortal.
"Nine Palaces, Eight Trigrams, Mystic Gate Shield, the level of my mastery is still too low."
"If I want to defeat this Soaring Serpent, then my understanding of mechanisms must be more mature and higher. Only then will it be possible."
"Actual combat is the best way to test a person. That's because you don't have much time to think. When you're facing a life and death situation, you have to make a breakthrough."
"Since it's a test, bring it on. I, Qin Xiao, am not afraid of a fight."
Qin Xiao was full of fighting spirit and confidence. His heart was filled with great power.
This great power would push Qin Xiao forward rapidly and break all obstacles.
It was indeed easier to improve and make a breakthrough in practice. Only by using it in a real battle could one know where one's shortcomings were and how to improve oneself.
Qin Xiao used the Earth Palace to trap the Soaring Serpent, but he could clearly feel that his Earth Palace was not strong enough, stable enough, and did not have much lethality.
Therefore, even if he could trap the Soaring Serpent for a short time, there was no way to defeat it.
If he could not defeat the Soaring Serpent and could not trap it, he would only end up with a grievance.
It was precisely because of this that Qin Xiao was forced to improve himself and make a breakthrough. Only in this way could he get out of this crisis.
Therefore, the biggest problem for Qin Xiao now was how to improve himself.
While fighting with the Soaring Serpent, Qin Xiao summarized his experience, understood what he lacked, and studied Dao to improve himself.
The effect was really very good. Qin Xiao's comprehension of Dao was obviously improving rapidly. Previously, Qin Xiao found that his understanding of Dao was wrong and there were some deviations.
Now, correcting it in practice was a kind of improvement.
Every small improvement was a kind of big accumulation. Slowly accumulating, the boat would naturally rise with the tide.
Only by accumulating silicon could one become a thousand miles.
"The Nine Palaces are of the wood element, the Eight Trigrams are of the wood element, the Eight Gods are of the wood element, and the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches are of the wood element."
"I blindly added the power of the wood element into the Earth Palace to slowly increase the trapping ability of the Earth Palace so that the Soaring Serpent can't break the Earth Palace."
"But even if the Soaring Serpent can't break the Earth Palace, it is still in the Earth Palace and has not died. I am now using my immortal power to maintain the operation of the Earth Palace. Once I withdraw my immortal power, the Earth Palace will collapse. "
"Therefore, I am also trapped here and can't leave. If this goes on, my immortal power will be exhausted one day. Once my immortal power can no longer maintain the operation of the Earth Palace, that will be the day I lose. "
"Therefore, just trapping the Soaring Serpent is not enough. I have to kill the Soaring Serpent."
"To kill the Soaring Serpent, just the power of the wood element is not enough. Wood is the nemesis of water, but its offensive power is not strong enough. "
"Therefore, I need the power of the metal element. The Gate of Opening is metal, and so is the Gate of Wonder. The Gate of Opening is the Gate of Great Fortune, while the Gate of Wonder is the Gate of Danger. "
"In comparison, the power of the metal element of the Gate of Wonder is more domineering and dangerous. It is more suitable for killing enemies."
"But controlling the power of the metal element of the Gate of Wonder is obviously much more difficult than controlling the Gate of Opening. The ferocious aura will also inevitably affect me. If I don't have a strong state of mind, I will definitely be devoured by the Gate of Wonder. Then, the gains will not make up for the losses. "
"The Gate of Wonder is located in the west."
Qin Xiao pondered and immediately decided on a countermeasure.
His fingers formed a seal and immortal power surged. The Gate of Wonder opened and the power of the metal rushed in.
The powerful force turned into terrifying rays of light that surged toward the Soaring Serpent.
The influx of murderous power made the Soaring Serpent roar with fury. Sensing the real threat, the Soaring Serpent roared even more wildly and charged at the Palace of Earth without regard for anything else.
Qin Xiao was in charge of the Palace of Earth. The power of confinement was so strong that it could not be broken. The Soaring Serpent was unable to break out of the Palace of Earth.
No matter how strong the Soaring Serpent was, it was fighting like a trapped beast in a cage. If it could not escape, it would only be tortured to death.
Under such circumstances, Qin Xiao had the upper hand and had plenty of time to kill the Soaring Serpent.
He attacked again and again, increasing the power of his attacks and controlling the Palace of Earth.
Finally, after a hundred years, Qin Xiao killed the Soaring Serpent.
"Phew!"
"It's finally dead!"
Qin Xiao was so tired that he almost slumped to the ground. He heaved a long sigh of relief and relaxed all of a sudden.
Killing a Soaring Serpent had not been easy. It had not been easy at all. He had almost been tormented to death.
No matter what, he had finally succeeded in killing it.
Being able to successfully kill the Soaring Serpent was of great significance to Qin Xiao. It had given him a lot of improvement.
To Qin Xiao, such an improvement was more meaningful and rewarding than his tens of thousands of years of comprehension and cultivation.
Cultivation and practice needed to be combined, so fighting was an indispensable condition.
Without the baptism of battle, no matter how good one's cultivation was, it would not be mature enough.
Only after experiencing the baptism of a big battle would there be some qualitative changes.
Obviously, Qin Xiao's mastery of the Art of Mechanisms had some qualitative changes at this time. It could be said that he had entered the door.
According to Qin Xiao's understanding, the Art of Mechanisms was divided into several levels. From low to high, they were: Elementary, Small Mastery, Great Mastery, Control, and Perfection.
In terms of the Art of Mechanisms, Qin Xiao had reached the Small Mastery Realm.
However, it was only in terms of the Art of Mechanisms. As for the Art of Mechanisms, Qin Xiao had not reached the Small Mastery Realm.
If he reached the Small Mastery Realm, he should be able to pass this test.
In terms of the Art of Mechanisms, the Master of Mechanisms at the Small Mastery Realm could trap and kill a second-step Celestial Venerable cultivator.
Therefore, it was easy for Qin Xiao to trap and kill an ordinary second-step Celestial Venerable with the Art of Mechanisms.
Qin Xiao had reached a certain level of mastery of the Art of Mechanisms. It would be too difficult for him to improve further. It would also require a lot of time.
Qin Xiao naturally did not have the time to spend a lot of time on the Art of Mechanisms. For Qin Xiao now, the Art of Formations and the Art of Shields were the key. He had some understanding of both and had almost reached the Elementary Mastery Realm.
However, this was not enough. It was far from enough. He had to reach the Small Mastery Realm before he could pass the test of the Art of Mechanisms.
Therefore, what he needed to improve next was the Art of Formations and the Art of Shields. Finally, he had to completely integrate the three together. That would be a great success.
The success of the Mechanism Technique gave Qin Xiao even more confidence and strength, and even greater encouragement.
After recuperating for a while, Qin Xiao continued to move forward.
"Since this is the Eight Gods Space, there should be tests for the Eight Gods. There are a total of eight tests."
"Teng She, I only passed the first test. However, the Eight Gods Space still belongs to the category of the Art of Mechanisms. "
"My Art of Mechanisms has now reached the Small Mastery Realm. Therefore, the next test shouldn't be too difficult. "
Qin Xiao moved forward confidently. As he expected, the next seven tests, although the difficulty was different, they were still the same. Qin Xiao had a firm grasp of the Art of Mechanisms. He would always think of a way to crack the tests and break them easily.
It only took him ten thousand years to pass all seven tests.
Qin Xiao also passed the Eight Gods Space.
From the Nine Palaces Space to the Eight Gates Space, and then to the Eight Gods Space, Qin Xiao had broken through again and again.
Now, the realm of the Art of Mechanisms should be very stable.
"The Art of Mechanisms is indeed full of endless wonders. It's as vast as the sea of smoke and as big as icebergs, waiting for me to explore. There are endless unknowns."
"All kinds of subtleties have indeed brought me into a new world."
"But I've only taken the first step. There are two more steps waiting for me."
"I believe that the Art of Formations and the Art of Shields are also full of endless mysteries. It's as vast as the sea of smoke, waiting for me to explore."
"Isn't cultivation just a process of exploration? In the process of exploration, I'll slowly harvest, improve, and make myself stronger. It's like a seed, slowly absorbing energy in the sea of knowledge of the Great Dao. It will slowly germinate, grow, and finally grow into a
Towering tree. "
"However, I'm still too far away from a towering tree. This is the direction I'm working towards. It's my grand goal, the direction I'm going."
