Chapter 4023: Formation Grandmaster
If he could grasp this kind of teleportation, then Ling Han would really be safe.
Unless he encountered a terrifying existence like the Saint, who could destroy the entire planet with a single strike, even Venerate Tier elites would find it very difficult to kill him.
However, it was too difficult to master this kind of technique.
The requirements for formation mastery were too high, and only the highest grade of Grandmaster could cast this.
If this was before in the Nine Suns Holy Land, Ling Han would definitely have only been able to look and sigh in disappointment. However, things were different now. He had gone to the Netherworld and raised the strength of his soul to the level of the Spirit Transformation Tier, qualifying him to touch the Grandmaster level.
He spent all of his contribution points in an instant, and then obtained the right to study this technique.
To learn this kind of technique, there were two things that needed to be done.
Firstly, one would have an incredibly profound grasp of formations, and secondly, being able to teleport required one to have a complete understanding of the ley lines. Thus, every time one arrived at a new planet, one would need to once again grasp the ley lines.
Hence, this technique itself was not difficult. What was difficult was how to increase the level of formations, and then grasp the ley lines of a planet.
Ling Han logged into the Galaxy Network and rented a top-notch Time Chamber.
He wanted to quickly improve his formations skills.
This stay lasted for half a year.
In the eyes of outsiders, Ling Han was clearly terrified. He knew that there were people from the Battle G.o.d Palace waiting to a.s.sa.s.sinate him outside, so he had been cooped up in his abode for more than half a year. To say nothing of the Holy Land, he didn’t even dare to leave his own abode.
Rumors flew, and they were all belittling Ling Han. It could not be helped. Previously, he had been too famous. With the cultivation level of Cauldron Forging Tier, he had defeated the Core Formation Tier, and even the Imperial Son could only bow in submission. How many people were envious, jealous, and hateful of him for this?
Thus, many pairs of eyes were focused on him, hoping to grab hold of his sore spot, so that they could harshly belittle him.
This time, they had found a chance.
However, Ling Han was completely unaware.
Half a year had pa.s.sed in the outside world, so how long had his soul spent on the Galaxy Network?
A whole twenty-five years!
After such a long time, he finally stepped into the Grandmaster level of formations.
It was extremely difficult. It was as difficult as ascending the heavens for him to create Grandmaster-level formation foundations. However, he didn’t need to set up such
formations. Instead, it was fine as long as he had this kind of understanding and could control the ley lines.
He ended his seclusion, and all of a sudden, his Universe Coins were completely exhausted. He was now extremely poor.
Ling Han naturally didn’t regret it at all. Wasn’t money used to strengthen his abilities? It was worth it.
Without money, he could just earn more.
Ling Han returned to reality, and as his feet stepped on the ground, endless enlightenment instantly rose up in him.
This planet was different from before. It was as if it had a life of its own, and was breathing. Ling Han closed his eyes, and touched it with his soul.
If he had only released his divine sense, he would only be able to sense any movement within a 500-kilometer radius. However, it was different now. It was as if he had fused with this planet. Every blade of gra.s.s, every tree, every rock and every drop of water had become his eyes and hands, allowing his senses to endlessly extend.
But if that was all, it was not enough for an instant.
Ling Han started to capture the ley lines.
He viewed planets as living beings, and ley lines were equivalent to the veins of the planet. Thus, after he grasped the ley lines, he could use them to surge, and instantly travel from one place to another.
His divine sense extended endlessly, penetrating deep into the land’s heart. Here, he touched an incredibly ancient willpower.
This was the willpower of a planet. Although it was incredibly powerful, it was also filled with Primal Chaos. It was like a giant infant. By nature, it was clearly powerful, yet it didn’t understand anything at all. It was filled with blankness.
Ling Han didn’t dare to come into contact with this kind of willpower. Although his current Spiritual Power was powerful, compared to the willpower of a planet, he was nothing but child’s play, unable to withstand a single blow.
He had grasped the ley lines. There was Earth Qi surging within, which was incredibly powerful.
Ling Han finally understood. If he could teleport on a planet and walk freely, it was because of this Earth Qi that he was able to traverse through the body of the planet.
The path of formations was truly amazing.
Ling Han’s interest was greatly piqued. He could imagine what kind of might could be unleashed by using this Earth Qi.
“No wonder it’s said that Formation Grandmasters can completely be regarded as elites of martial arts.” Ling Han nodded, “Furthermore, extracting Earth Qi to temper the body, though its effect on increasing cultivation level is not great, it can strengthen the physique to
a chilling extent.”
“The soil of the Five Elements represents defense in the first place.”
“Interesting, truly interesting.”
Ling Han continued to extend his divine sense, grasping the ley lines of the entire Nine Suns Planet. In this way, he felt that this planet was him, and he was this planet.
Theoretically, he could see every single part of the Nine Sung Planet, but in truth, there were too many places that he could not see through at all, as if they were enshrouded in fog.
There should be formations in these places, so they blocked his senses.
Not only that, but he also saw a few elites. He had just looked over with his willpower, when the other party sensed his presence. They shot out a punch, and easily destroyed the Earth Qi, causing him to instantly become blind.
Ling Han sighed. The strength of his soul was only at the Spiritual Transformation Tier, after all. If he encountered Sect Master-level or Venerate Tier-level elites, he would naturally be
discovered.
“Instant teleportation isn’t as easy as I thought.”
Ling Han frowned. The foundation of this instant teleportation was actually Earth Qi, but Earth Qi originated from the ley lines, and could be extended to a certain extent. However, it could not possibly seep out too far. Thus, if he wanted to instant teleport, firstly, he had to
stand near the ley lines.
Let’s give it a try first.
He walked for a while, and arrived at a ley line. Then, with a thought, an Earth Qi wrapped around him. Xiu, he was gone.
This was too amazing. It was clear that the ground was still whole, and there was no pit at all, but he just sank into the ground. It was as if he had fused with the ground.
With another thought, he had already appeared from underground, appearing at least 50,000
km away from Nine Suns Holy Land.
Of course, this place just happened to correspond to a ley line.
With another thought from Ling Han, xiu, xiu, xiu, he continuously shuttled through this
planet.
Wonderful, wonderful, this was really too wonderful.
In terms of intergalactic travel, he was definitely no match for the Venerate Tier elite. The latter could instantly travel millions and millions of miles by tearing a rip into the Void, but in terms of traveling on a planet, he should not be inferior to the Venerate Tier elite.
More importantly, with the ley lines as his eyes and ears, he could sense the killing intent in advance, and from there, prepare ahead of time.
In this way, even if he wasn’t near the ley lines, he could still have time to make
arrangements.
“Can I also teleport away from the ley lines?” Ling Han read the information, and said that
the true Formations Grandmasters could teleport anywhere, and did not have to be near the
ley lines.
He began experimenting, and discovered that this was feasible.
That was to wrap himself in Earth Qi. As long as he could stimulate Earth Qi, he would be able
to teleport.
“There is a limit to the extension of the Earth Qi. However, it can be replenished through
one’s own Spiritual Power, which connects with the Earth Qi, forming a pa.s.sageway that
solves the problem of distance.”
“That would have to depend on the strength of my soul.”
“With the strength of my current Spiritual Power, this distance is about a hundred miles.”
“Just barely enough.”
