Chapter 122: Ya’an has no sense of direction

Qin Feng didn’t know Ya’an’s current mood, so he said to the side, “Miss Ningshuang, you can come in too.”

“Alright, young master.” Lan Ningshuang took a deep breath and stepped into the courtyard.

As soon as her body entered the Heavy Abyss Formation, the powerful pressure made her grunt.

Fortunately, with Hei Tan Tou and Qin An testing it earlier, she quickly adapted to the gravity within the Heavy Abyss Formation.

Qin Feng spoke again, “As you move toward the center of the Heavy Abyss Formation, the gravity increases. Start by adapting to the outer circle slowly, refining the internal energy within your body under the pressure.

When the outer circle is ineffective, gradually move toward the inner circle. Remember to progress step by step and not be reckless. Otherwise, it may cause damage to your body.”

Upon hearing the instructions, the three responded in unison and began to stimulate the internal energy in their bodies for cultivation.

Ya’an looked at the three in the courtyard and thought, “With the assistance of the Heavy Abyss Formation, these three should be able to break through the seventh rank of martial arts and enter the sixth rank of gathering energy in no time.

All of this is because of this man.

How can one person dedicate themselves to studying both a discipline and formation at the same time? What secrets does he hold?”

The facts were in front of her, and Ya’an became increasingly curious about Qin Feng.

If he hadn’t settled in this remote small city, and if he could join the Grand Literature Academy in Imperial City and receive guidance from a teacher, he would undoubtedly become a pillar of The Great Qian Dynasty in the future.

Thinking of this, Ya’an spat in her heart at Qin Jian’an. All of this was because this person sold their ancestral home.

Otherwise, if the Qin family had stayed in Imperial City, with the resources of the imperial capital and with the talent of Qin Feng, their prosperity would have been only a matter of time.

This person is truly unworthy!

Ya’an sighed lightly and asked, “I also studied formations before, but I never quite grasped it. Can you help me see where the problem lies?”

She let go of her inner pride and humbly asked for advice.

This actually caught Qin Feng off guard. Such a stubborn woman actually lowered her face to ask him for guidance.

Usually, she enjoyed arguing with me so much, but today the tables have turned.

“Well, draw a formation first, let this teacher see where the problem is.” Qin Feng immediately took on the appearance of a teacher, with a kind and amiable expression.

This irritating look made Ya’an extremely uncomfortable in her heart, and her eyebrows furrowed.

“What do you call yourself?”

“As a teacher. What’s wrong? You asked me for advice, and I’m guiding you. Calling me your teacher is not excessive, right?” Qin Feng raised an eyebrow.

“Heh, do you know who has the qualifications to be my teacher? Do you dare to compare yourself to them? Do you have the courage?” Ya’an sneered.

Courage?

Hey, one day as a teacher, a lifetime as a father. I not only want to be your teacher, but I also want to be your father.

Qin Feng shamelessly thought, then cleared his throat, “Since you can’t let go of your pride, forget it. Anyway, it’s not me you want to learn from.”

Qin Feng crossed his arms, looking at the three people practicing in the courtyard without turning his gaze.

Seeing this, Ya’an clenched her left fist, gritted her teeth, took a few deep breaths, suppressed her resentment, and finally said coldly, “Please teach me, Master Qin.”

Satisfied!

Qin Feng nodded, self-satisfied, “Draw a Formation!”

Ya’an glanced around, picked up a stone from the ground, and began to draw a formation in the corridor.

Qin Feng stood quietly on the side, watching silently. When the formation gradually took shape, he recognized it.

It was a common Yin Gathering Formation, which could gather the Yin energy in the surroundings to assist the practitioner in ghost cultivation.

“She did study formations before; that should be true. The formation is drawn quickly and accurately, but why does it feel a bit awkward?” Qin Feng rubbed his chin, staring at the formation, pondering.

After a while, Ya’an completed the formation, stood up straight, took out some formation materials from her spatial artifact, and placed them in various corners of the formation.

At this point, for her, the formation was considered successful.

However, unexpectedly, this Yin Gathering Formation still had no effect.

Ya’an couldn’t hide her disappointment. She turned to Qin Feng and asked, “How is it? Can you see anything?”

When Ya’an was drawing the formation, he felt something was off but didn’t know where the problem was. However, when Ya’an placed the formation materials, he finally found the key to the problem.

“Your formation has completely mismatched the eight trigrams’ positions. The Kan position is swapped with the Qian position, and the positions of Zhen and Dui are reversed. With the formation drawn like this, it’s naturally impossible to succeed.” Qin Feng revealed the crucial issue.

In the “Formation Explanation,” there is a detailed introduction to the orientation of the formation.

Formations themselves need to borrow the timing and take advantage of the location, influenced by the interactions of the Five Elements.

Therefore, to successfully cast a formation, one not only needs a profound understanding of formations but also must consider the orientation of the location and the surrounding conditions.

Otherwise, even if the formation is well-drawn, it’s just an empty show.

“How could this happen?” Ya’an frowned.

Qin Feng asked, “Do you not know how to correspond to the eight trigrams when depicting the Yin Gathering Formation?'”

Upon hearing this, Ya’an immediately stated the key points for depicting the Yin Gathering Formation, which surprisingly matched exactly with the content Qin Feng had seen in the book before.

“What’s going on here? You haven’t forgotten the key points, so why did you depict the formation like this? Try again.”

“Alright.” Ya’an nodded and moved to another location to start redrawing the formation.

Having identified the other person’s mistake, Qin Feng observed more carefully this time. But just a few moments later, he called a halt: ‘Wrong again!'”

He pointed to a part of the ground formation and explained, “This should be drawn to the Qian position.”

Qin Feng was puzzled. He clearly knew the key points of the Yin Gathering Formation, so why did mistakes keep happening?

It wasn’t until Ya’an retorted, “Isn’t this the Qian position?”

“‘Huh?'” Qin Feng’s expression was shocked, as if he understood something.

He paused and tentatively asked, “Could it be that you can’t distinguish between south, east, north and west, and the eight trigram directions?'”

Ya’an’s reaction was intense, “Such remarks are truly absurd!”

The way you are, it really feels like that’s the issue. Qin Feng asked, “In which direction is Jinyang City from The Great Qian?'”

“‘Southern region,’ Ya’an replied without hesitation.

“‘And where is Imperial City in relation to Jinyang City?’ Qin Feng asked again.

“‘Naturally, it’s to the north.” Ya’an said with a calm expression.

“Show me.”

As the words fell, Ya’an, however, did not move. A hint of panic flashed in her eyes.

She raised her left hand, swayed left and right for a long time, then pointed heavily in a direction.

Qin Feng, seeing this, smirked: ‘That’s the east.'”

“Ah?” Ya’an seemed struck by a blow.

At this point, he finally confirmed that this person was a complete directional idiot! How could someone who can’t even differentiate directions set up formations?”

Qin Feng advised, “Why don’t you give up on studying formations? You don’t have talent in this.”

Originally well-intentioned advice, but it touched on Ya’an’s inner pain. Her former teacher had said the same thing.

But she was not willing to give up!
