After throwing the Nine Yin True Scriptures to Xing'er, Li Dao continued his research on the formation technique manuals that Young Master Yue had lent him.
Li Dao discovered that he liked to pass down the Nine Yin True Scriptures to others. Actually, he knew quite a bit of martial arts. The Blue Lotus Sword Scripture could not be randomly taught. The other martial arts could only be divided into individual inner force skills. If it was a single move, then unlike the Nine Yin Scriptures, the inner force skills would be combined into one.
He began to study the formation technique again. In a flash, half a month had passed. Li Dao had finally finished reading the formation technique manual that Young Master Yue had lent him. At the same time, he had gained a certain level of understanding towards the formation technique.
Combined with the traces he saw in the four cities, he discovered that the array formation laid down by the old man at the border was based on the Eight Inner Hidden Gates.
However, the old man at the border didn't simply arrange the Eight Inner Hidden Gates, he reversed them.
Hugh, Life, Wound, Du, Scene, Death, Shock, Open.
These eight techniques had been disrupted by the borderline old man, thus they were divided into eight hardships.
The Frontier Elder used the tragedy that occurred between the four families of Ouyang, Shangguan Yan, Huangfu, and Sima as the starting point. Afterwards, he provoked the entire Four Great Cities to gather the resentments of the citizens, hoping to refine the yin and yang energies of life and death.
Li Dao was not clear on the exact steps of the Fringe Elder in setting up the formation and breaking through the formation, unless he advanced into a martial arts grandmaster.
According to the ancient records, yin and yang energy could be refined from life itself and used to refine the elixir of life. Xu Fu had used Yin and Yang when he refined the elixir of immortality for Qin Shihuang.
What was the purpose of the old man refining the Yin and Yang Qi?
One must know that the Yin and Yang Qi of life and death was only a medicinal ingredient for the elixir of life. As for the rest, could it be that the old people at the border have all gathered them?
Li Dao did not believe that the Fringe Elder would be able to gather all of the spiritual medicines. Xu Fu still had to go to the East China Sea to look for the herbs.
