The Four Quarters Energy-Drawing Formation is a technique recorded within the String-Pulling Technique.
Positioning four individuals at the positions of West Metal Geng, East Wood Jia, North Water Ren, and South Fire Bing, the technique follows the principle of "water, fire, wind, thunder cultivating a golden body," incorporating some of the traditional Xuanmen Zhengzong doctrine. It slightly surpasses the normal pace of upgrading in dual cultivation between two people — the incremental progress over time is quite considerable.
But the issue remains the same: when it's already difficult to find a completely trusted dual-cultivation partner, how do you find two more individuals and ensure safety?
