Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Once there was not a single evil spirit left within sight, all 48 Blood God Illusions returned to the scroll in Chen Xiaobei’s hands and were once again just characters in a painting.

For a moment then, there was a pindrop silence from the crowd.

Chen Xiaobei especially went through a mixture of emotions; shock, delight, unsettledness, and astonishment, that he was given this Spiritual Item. He did not know if he should be feeling happy or worried!

Fortunately, this Spiritual Item only would harm enemies. Had it not be able to differentiate between a friend or a foe, it would have been the most terrifying thing that Chen Xiaobei had ever used and would never use again!

Anyhow, Chen Xiaobei had also decided that once he had helped Luo Puti settle everything in Jingjue Kingdom, the first thing he had to do was to find out who this Ming He was.

“Mr. Chen, what should we do next?” Zhuo Qunfeng asked on behalf of the others.

Right now, not only was Chen Xiaobei their mainstay, but he was also a superior man whom they worshipped and adored! Their unsung hero!

Anything Chen Xiaobei said, they would carry it out without objections.

Every single they did now would have to align with Chen Xiaobei’s commands!

“Well, I’ll tell you again as what I’ve told you earlier on, that the road ahead will be even more dangerous!” Chen Xiaobei said. “I suggest that everyone stays here. I will explore Jingjue Kingdom on my own and once I’m done, I will lead you out of the desert!”

“Alright! We’ll do as Mr. Chen says! We’ll wait here!”

“Yeah! We’ll only be a burden to Mr. Chen if we go with him! It’s already safe here. So, we can wait here quietly!”

“Alright! That’s decided then!”

Everyone nodded in absolute obedience to Chen Xiaobei’s arrangement.

“Xiaobei.” Luo Puti walked up to Chen Xiaobei hesitantly.

“I understand what you mean. Accidentally killing that thousand-eyed evil spirit was never my intention. We can only continue to search for new leads!” Chen Xiaobei said. “But before that, I will need to dive into this lake and take the Thousand Spirit Formation away!”

“Actually, I have a new dilemma. You go ahead first and retrieve that formation. I’ll discuss it with you when you get back!” Luo Puti said.

“Alright! I’ll be back very soon!” Chen Xiaobei nodded, put aside his Spiritual Items and dived into the water.

The deep end of the lake was pitch black, and it was so deep that you could not see the bottom of it. Most people would not have been able to go as far as to reach the Formation!

But Chen Xiaobei was an exception. With the Hydrophobe Orb hidden inside his body, Chen Xiaobei’s vision was unaffected, and he was even able to breathe and talk underwater.

The Thousand Spirit Formation was positioned at the bottom of the lake. With 810 Formation Cores, most people could only find a few.

But because he had the Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes, Chen Xiaobei was able to find the concealed, special objects with just one glance!

Instead of rushing over to take the items away, he took his time to determine the positions of all Formation Cores.

In case his memory failed him, Chen Xiaobei took out his Dami 17 waterproof interstellar cellphone and used the built-in cartographic software to record the position of each Formation Cores. He even did a detailed marking on each location.

What he had drawn was the blueprint of the Thousand Spirit Formation.

All Chen Xiaobei had to do was to follow the drawing, rearrange everything, and thereafter he could build his own Thousand Spirit Formation and become the new master of the Formation.

Once he had a comprehensive documentation of the blueprint written out, Chen Xiaobei began to collect all the items inside each of the 810 Formation Cores.

The items were actually runes made of the finest jades.

Jade stones were excellent mediums for storing, connecting, and transmitting Spiritual Qis; the best material for making runes.

Chen Xiaobei began to collect them from the outside in, until he reached the final core of Formation Cores. The runes hidden inside was made of a different material.

It looked like a purple crystal, and weighed more than a block of lead!

The interesting thing about this purple crystal was the density of the Yin Qi that it was exuding; it seemed like it was the energy source of the Thousand Spirit Formation and was very intriguing.

“This thing looks very familiar…” Chen Xiaobei furrowed his brows. “Yes! It’s like the Abyssal Spiritual Crystal! I received the same crystal from Yanwang on the night of Duanwu! This is a One-star Divine Item! It contains some kind of fusion power within it! The best material for forging Yin Attribute Divine Item! No wonder this Formation was able to hold on to a demigod even though it was merely crafted by a human being. It had a Divine-tiered rune to support the Formation Cores!

“So, if that is the case…” Chen Xiaobei thought to himself aloud. “If I use the Abyssal Spiritual Crystal that Yanwang gave me to create more runes and replace the rune into the Formation Cores, then the power of this Formation would increase tremendously! By that time, it would be completely possible to kill an Earth God!”

Chen Xiaobei was excited at the thought. If it were true that he could really make it happen, he could do anything that he liked before he set foot into heavenly realm.

But alas, at the end of the day, it was merely an assumption. The action of actually doing it was not as simple as it seemed.

First of all, Chen Xiaobei did not have the time to look for ten thousand powerful evil spirits.

Secondly, setting up Formations would require a lot of energy, which was another issue.

“I’ll just collect them first! I don’t need to make a decision now. Who knows, I might get an even better idea in the near future, then I won’t need to do this!” Chen Xiaobei decided as he put the core rune away with the rest.

Chen Xiaobei checked the area against the drawing on his phone one more time, and then used his will to check the Infinite Space Ring.

Having confirmed that he had missed nothing, Chen Xiaobei swam back up to the surface.

“Why hasn’t Mr. Chen come up yet? It’s been more than 3 hours already. Do you think something might have happened to him?”

“Yeah. It’s taking him a really long time! Something must have happened!”

“Why don’t we go down and take a look! The longer we wait, the more danger Mr. Chen could be in!”

Those ashore began to panic at Chen Xiaobei’s absence.

Whoosh!

Right at the same moment, Chen Xiaobei appeared from under the water and jumped onto the shore, smiling. “What are you guys talking about?”

The disciples immediately changed their tone.

“We… We were saying that Mr. Chen is an extraordinary person, and he would have no problems spending three days and three nights underwater!”

“Yeah! Our Mr. Chen is the most brilliant person ever! How could he ever be in trouble?”

“Mr. Chen does everything well! We don’t have to worry at all!”

Chen Xiaobei chuckled, “I know all of you mean well, but you don’t have to be so melodramatic!”

When they saw Chen Xiaobei making a joke about it, they all began to laugh along.

“Alright! We’ll split up here!” Chen Xiaobei said in a serious manner. “Everyone, please wait here. Luo Puti and I will be heading into Jingjue Kingdom!”
