Is this girl cultivating immortality? Yunling finds out!

Chapter 15: Mouth Blocked
Perhaps because he is a time traveler, Lu Yu has an extremely high talent in the art of heavenly craftsmanship.

He could basically understand the principles behind the sect's books on formations and mechanisms after reading them once, and he could also figure out many new things on his own.

However, if we want to integrate it and transform it into a physical object, we lack some practical experience.

In the past, due to financial constraints, he did not have enough materials to use.

Now that he had the full warehouse of resources at his disposal, Lu Yu was like a hungry man, constantly packing up the materials in the treasury.

"Starry Night Sand Sharpening Gallstone. Wow! And White-Veined Wood!"

The bamboo basket behind Lu Yu was already stuffed to the brim, but he kept stuffing things into his arms.

Fang Ningyu, who was standing by, was amused by Lu Yu's rustic appearance and instructed the maid at the door:

"Go, get two more baskets."

Lu Yu naturally would not refuse. After saying thank you, he plunged into the piles of materials again.

Estimating that he would be busy for a long time, Lu Yu asked the two maids to go and rest first.

Fang Ningyu stayed to help, and from time to time introduced some materials to Lu Yu that he was not familiar with.

It was almost dusk. Lu Yu left the treasury with two baskets of materials in each hand and another basket on his back, feeling very satisfied.

The guest room is located in the northeast corner of the City Lord's Mansion, close to Fang Ningyu's courtyard.

By the time Fang Ningyu brought Lu Yu to the place, it was already completely dark.

"Mr. Xiao Lu, I will have someone build a smelting shed in your yard tomorrow. If you need anything else, just let me know."

Lu Yu took off his things, bowed and said:
"Thank you, Miss Fang! Miss Fang, please don't be so formal. From now on, just call me Lu Yu."

Fang Ningyu raised the corner of her mouth and whispered:

"Lu Luyu, don't call me Miss Fang anymore. Just call me by my name."

"Okay! Fang Ningyu"

Lu Yu called out, Fang Ningyu's pretty face turned slightly red, but Lu Yu smacked his lips and said:
"Calling you by your name feels a bit harsh. How about I call you Ningyu?"

Fang Ningyu's face turned even redder when she heard this, but fortunately it was dark and no one could see it.

"Ningyu..."

"Yeah, Lu Yu"

Fang Ningyu responded softly, her voice as soft as a mosquito's hum.

Just at this moment, a strange "gurgling" sound was heard.

Fang Ningyu raised her head curiously, only to see Lu Yu rubbing his stomach awkwardly and saying:
"Hey, it's been a busy day. I'm hungry."

Fang Ningyu couldn't help but laugh and led Lu Yu to the dining table in the room.

Lu Yu looked at the empty dining table and felt confused.

Fang Ningyu took out a small seal from her sleeve and gently embedded it into a depression on the corner of the table.

The halo of light swirled, and a regular texture faintly appeared on the table.

Lu Yu suddenly became curious and lowered his head to take a closer look.

But suddenly, white mist rose from the formation.

"This is.?"

Lu Yu asked in surprise.

"This is a small spirit separation formation."

Fang Ningyu explained, then raised her sleeves and gently fanned the table.

When the white mist dissipated, several exquisite dishes appeared on the table.

"This formation connects to the kitchen in the mansion. When you want to eat in the future, place the mansion seal here."

Fang Ningyu took out the small seal from the corner of the table and handed it to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu looked at the small seal in his hand over and over again, then lowered his head to look at the steaming dishes on the table, exclaiming in amazement.

Fang Ningyu sat down at the table, added a piece of food to Lu Yu's bowl, and said:

"This formation has been simplified."

"Oh?"

Lu Yu became interested and sat down as well, saying:

"Tell me more, tell me more."

"Do you know about the spirit-dividing formation in this sect?" Fang Ningyu asked back.

Lu Yu shook his head, picked up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and stuffed them into his mouth.

Fang Ningyu was in a good mood when she saw that Lu Yu was not shy at all. She explained:

"Generally, large sects and schools will set up this spirit division formation to gather resources from all directions."

"Gather resources?"

"Exactly."

Fang Ningyu nodded and continued:
"Think about it, this sect's jurisdiction covers an area of ​​more than a thousand miles. It encompasses countless resource points. If we rely entirely on manpower to transport resources, wouldn't that be time-consuming and labor-intensive?"

Fang Ningyu pointed at the array pattern on the table and continued:
"This Spirit Separation Formation uses the sect's protective formation as its core, and the hidden veins of the mountains and rivers as its patterns. It encompasses all areas controlled by the sect. Not only does it serve as a warning to the enemy, it can also directly transmit resources from all parties back to the sect in an instant."

This was the first time Lu Yu had heard of such a grand formation. He couldn't help but widen his eyes. After swallowing the food in his mouth, he hurriedly asked:

"Such a powerful formation, how come I have never heard of it before?"

Fang Ningyu chuckled and said:
"This Spirit Separation Formation is the vital point of every sect. It cannot be protected. How can this news be spread?"

"Right."

Lu Yu nodded and asked again:
"Then how did you know?"

"My master is responsible for maintaining the sect's spirit division formation, and there is also such a formation in Wancheng."

"I see."

Lu Yu suddenly realized.

Seeing that Lu Yu was very interested in this topic, Fang Ningyu continued:
"Actually, the principles of this Spirit Separation Formation are very simple. The only difficulty lies in the materials needed to set it up. With your understanding of formations, I believe you'll be able to master it in no time."

As Fang Ningyu spoke, she began to slowly teach Lu Yu the principles of the spirit-splitting formation.

Lu Yu was halfway through listening when he suddenly froze and asked:

"You're going to teach me such a secret formation just like that?!"

"What's the secret?"

Fang Ningyu smiled and said:
"This Spirit Separation Formation is known to all the formation masters in the major sects throughout the world, but everyone has tacitly agreed not to spread it."

Only then did Lu Yu feel relieved and took note of everything Fang Ningyu said.

Just as Fang Ningyu said, it only took one meal for Lu Yu to understand the principles of the spirit-splitting formation.

At the same time, he also figured out how the sects competed for the resources of the blessed land.

It’s very simple, to put it bluntly, it’s just planting a flag.

Whoever can place the flag of the spirit-dividing formation in this area first will have a great advantage.

During the formation process, it must be strictly guarded and not be destroyed.

Moreover, this formation of flags contains extremely rare Taixu Yuanshi, and each one is very expensive.

Once it is destroyed, it will be a devastating loss for any sect!
"In the past, I only heard that sects fought fiercely for resources, but it turns out it was all for this one formation flag."

Lu Yu couldn't help but sigh.

"Your Beizhou sect keeps a low profile, so it's normal that you don't understand the struggles within the sect."

Fang Ningyu sighed softly and said slowly:
"Our East Continent and West Continent have always been at war, and countless cultivators have perished in the battles, including many brilliant and talented cultivators."

Fang Ningyu paused, closed her eyes, rubbed her temples, and whispered to herself:
“Maybe one day, even I will…”

Before Fang Ningyu could finish her words, her mouth was blocked.

He looked down and saw a chicken leg stuffed in his mouth.

"Talk less while eating."

Lu Yu retracted his hand, buried his head in the bowl, and muttered.

Fang Ningyu had never been treated like this since she was a child, and she subconsciously wanted to overturn the table.

But suddenly he realized that Lu Yu didn't seem to want to hear him say such unlucky words?

Is this also considered caring about yourself?

Her cheeks flushed slightly, and the chicken leg in her mouth became sweet and delicious.

Fang Ningyu raised her hand, picked up the chicken leg, and began to eat it in small bites, occasionally stealing a glance at Lu Yu.
