Niu Ping was a beast cultivator of the Green Ox Clan. The Green Ox Clan was an important branch of the Ox Clan. They had two characteristics that made them different from other Ox Clans. First, they only had one horn on their head. Second, their skin was green, and there wasn't much hair on it. Of course, this was referring to their body.
The Green Ox Clan was famous for their great strength and strong defense, especially their horns. They were born with a kind of attribute, which was the earth attribute. They could use all kinds of earth attribute techniques. They were also very famous in the entire Ox Clan.
However, the Green Ox Clan wasn't a rhinoceros. They were a kind of single-horned ox, which was different from the rhinoceros. Their strength was very powerful. They were also one of the best in the Ox Clan.
Niu Ping was the same as the other members of the Ox Clan. They weren't very smart, but their strength was very powerful. They were one of the main fighting races in the Demon Race. However, it was precisely because they weren't very smart that they didn't get a high status. The highest status of the Ox Clan was only the twelve zodiac elders of the Holy Gate. In the Mind Sect, their status wasn't high either. There wasn't even a member of the Ox Clan among the twelve zodiac elders.
The main reason for this situation was that when the Ox Clan followed the Mind Sect to leave the Holy Gate, some of their experts had died in battle. This also caused a gap in their inheritance. Therefore, there weren't many experts in the Ox Clan. It was precisely because of this that the Ox Clan didn't have a high status. But even so, in the Mind Sect, no race dared to look down on the Ox Clan. This was because although they didn't have a strong expert, the strength of the Ox Clan was generally very good. Moreover, the Ox Clan was very stubborn. If they thought that you were their enemy, then they would fight with you until the end.
Logically speaking, the Ox Tribe and the Sea Exploring Sect were also enemies. They should be fighting the Sea Exploring Sect to the end. However, this wasn't the case. One must know that the Ox Tribe and the Sea Exploring Sect weren't enemies. The enemy of the Sea Exploring Sect was the Yi Sect. The Ox Tribe was just a part of the Yi Sect, not because they had enmity with the Sea Exploring Sect.
The members of the Ox Clan were very clear about this distinction. In their view, the enemy of the Yi Sect was not their enemy. However, as a member of the Yi Sect, they would help the Yi Sect to deal with the enemy. However, it was impossible for them to treat the other party as a life and death enemy of the Ox Clan.
Niu Ping was the same. He had joined the battle against the Sea Exploration Sect quite late. He had only joined the battle after Bai Zhiyun had personally led the troops. They had won the first battle because they had forced the Sea Exploration Sect to retreat. They had forced the Sea Exploration Sect to retreat to the Holy Gate. That was a victory.
In fact, Niu Ping somewhat looked down on the Sea Exploring Sect at that time. As soon as they saw the arrival of the army of the Sea Exploring Sect, the Sea Exploring Sect retreated without a fight. This really made him somewhat uncomfortable.
However, they had suffered a big loss in the second battle. The people of the Sea Exploring Sect had directly deceived them into entering their great formation. Niu Ping looked at the people around him. One by one, they were blown into a bloody mist by the astral winds. He had relied on his super strong defensive ability to escape this disaster. This also gave him a new understanding of the combat strength of the Sea Exploring Sect's disciples.
Niu Ping didn't mean to look down on the Sea Exploring Sect. He thought that the Sea Exploring Sect didn't rely on their own strength to defeat them. In fact, he didn't think so. Now, the Ox Clan had an idea. They respected those who could use formations well, could create new techniques, could refine pills, and could refine tools. Such 'technical talents' and 'knowledgeable people' were very valued in the Ox Clan. This was because the Ox Clan had discovered that they had suffered losses because they didn't have any talents in this area. Therefore, the Ox Clan had always wanted to cultivate talents in this area. However, due to the innate talent of their race, they didn't have any talents in this area. This was the most distressing thing for the Ox Clan.
The more this was the case, the more they valued such people. Therefore, when Niu Ping discovered that the people of the Sea Exploring Sect could eliminate hundreds of millions of their people with just a formation, he wasn't angry at all. Instead, he felt incomparable admiration. Therefore, when he learned that the Yi Sect had surrendered to the Sea Exploring Sect, he wasn't angry. On the contrary, he was very happy. Moreover, he directly told the Ox Clan how powerful the Sea Exploring Sect was in terms of formations. Finally, he told the Ox Clan that they could select smart children from the Ox Clan to study formations in the Sea Exploring Sect.
It can be said that learning formations, alchemy, and refining techniques had become the obsession of the Ox Clan. It was precisely because of this that the Ox Clan didn't oppose joining the Sea Exploring Sect.
Afterward, the people of the Sea Exploring Sect began to ask about Niu Ping's cultivation and wanted to establish a file for him. Niu Ping was different from other cultivators. He wouldn't hide his true strength from the other party. This was because he now considered himself a member of the Sea Exploring Sect. Naturally, he could tell the other party about his strength.
After explaining his strength to the other party, he looked at the person from the Sea Exploring Sect and said, "Senior Brother, I'd like to ask if I can learn Array Formation Techniques?"
When the Sea Exploring Sect disciple heard Niu Ping, he stared blankly. Then he smiled faintly and said, "Senior Brother is too polite. You're stronger than me, so I should be the one calling you Senior Brother. Senior Brother, you want to learn formations? That's not a problem. In fact, our Sea Exploring Sect allows our disciples to learn other things outside of cultivation. For example, Dharma Array Techniques, Alchemy Techniques, Tool Refining Techniques, Talisman Crafting Techniques, and so on. If you learn them well, or if you have any innovations in these techniques, the sect will reward you. "
When Niu Ping heard this, he couldn't help but be excited. He said, "Is what Junior Brother said true? Can I really learn the art of arrays? "
The disciple nodded and said, "Yes, anyone can learn formations. This is the sect's rule."
"But Junior Brother, I don't have any talent in formations. Can I really learn formations? I won't hide it from Junior Brother, I've studied formations before. But the teachers who taught me thought that I didn't have any talent for it, so they didn't let me study it. Can I still learn formations like this? "Zhao Hai smiled and said," That's right.
"This is also possible. Even if Senior Brother doesn't have any talent in formations and can't research new formations, Senior Brother can still learn some basic formations. I don't expect you to have a great development in formations, but at the very least, you should still be able to learn how to set up and use formations."
"Good, that's great. Junior Brother, when can I learn the art of Spirit Arrays?" Where can I learn them? "
The Sea Exploring Sect's disciple was stunned by Niu Ping's appearance. He looked at Niu Ping and said, "Senior Brother, please forgive my rudeness. I can see that Senior Brother's stature is very sturdy. It's most suitable for Body Cultivation. May I know why Senior Brother wants to learn formations?"
When Niu Ping heard this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath and said, "Junior Brother, you don't know, but I'm from the Oxen Clan. Because of our innate stupidity, our status in the Demon Race has always been low. Moreover, we're always looked down upon. In recent years, we've always wanted to learn formations, but no one was willing to teach us. Because of this, we've been very distressed. Now that we heard that the sect will teach us formations, I think our clan will be very happy. I've already told the Patriarch that the clan will send some smart children to learn formations from an early age."
The Sea Exploring Sect's disciple stared for a moment, then he said, "So that's how it is. Senior Brother, then Junior Brother will advise you that if your clan doesn't have talent in formations, then you shouldn't learn formations. The sect has a rule that you can learn formations, but if you don't have talent in this area, then you can only do it as a hobby. You mustn't waste your time on it. We are cultivators, and we still prioritize cultivation. I can see that Senior Brother's stature is the best candidate for Body Cultivation. Look at Elder Ding Chunming, who's by the Sect Master's side. He doesn't have much research on formations, he only knows how to use them. He's also a Body Cultivator. But in the entire Sea Exploring Sect, besides the Sect Master, no one can compare to him in terms of strength. He's still one of the top experts in the sect, the Sect Master's number one bodyguard, and the captain of the Sea Exploring Sect's cavalry. He has a high position and is respected by everyone. Therefore, Senior Brother, if you really don't have talent in formations, then there's no need to learn them. As long as you work hard and become as strong as Elder Ding, then no one would dare to look down on you."
When Niu Ping heard the Sea Exploring Sect's disciple, he couldn't help but stare. Then he looked at the Sea Exploring Sect's disciples and said, "Really? As long as we're strong, they won't look down on us? "
The disciple couldn't help but smile. He looked at Niu Ping and said, "Of course, Senior Brother, we're all cultivators. Cultivators compete in strength. Whether it's formation techniques, alchemy techniques, or refining techniques, all of them are for the sake of increasing our strength. If we're not strong enough, then it's useless to learn anything. As long as we're strong enough, then we don't need to worry about anything. Take you as an example, if you have the strength of a Supreme Elder, then you don't need to learn formation techniques at all. This is because you'll have a large number of disciples following you on your first mission. At that time, there will be people who know formations, alchemy, and refining tools. You can order them around as you please, so you don't have to worry about anything. Therefore, I think that Senior Brothers should find a suitable Cultivation Method to improve your strength. Of course, Senior Brothers, you can also learn formation techniques, alchemy techniques, refining tools, and talisman techniques. You can learn all of these, but don't waste too much time on them. The most important thing is to improve your strength." Niu Ping nodded and said, "Of course, Senior Brothers, we're all cultivators.
Niu Ping nodded repeatedly as he listened. He felt that what he said was very reasonable.
