Chapter 1357: A Surprising Realization

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Acheron: There are 48 Blood God Illusions hidden inside the Hundred Ghosts Parade painting. They are all clones of me. However, because I am still recovering from my injuries, they are a little weak now!

Chen Xiaobei was surprised to hear this.

He still remembered the day when the 48 Blood Gods slaughtered thousands of evil spirits. Archeron was already injured by then. Nevertheless, they were extremely powerful and strong! But Acheron was calling them weak?

Imagine what would happen when Acheron recovered from his injuries. Those Blood Gods would then be phenomenal!

Of course, to think about it, Acheron was the strongest among the Saints. His combat power was equal to that of Duobao Rulai. How could it not be phenomenal?

That was why, in Acheron’s eyes, those Blood Gods were very weak right now.

Acheron: You have a very limited number of Blood God Illusions. If you want them to be stronger, the only way to do it is to power them up with a formation!

Chen Xiaobei: Formation?! Brother, are you saying that I should round up all the Blood God Illusions to deploy a formation?

Acheron: That’s right! All 48 Blood God Illusions have their own combat powers. With help of the formation, they will grow even stronger!

Chen Xiaobei: Deploying a formation requires the proper location. After deployment, the Blood God Illusions would be sealed inside the formation. I think that’s a bit of a waste. After all, these Blood Gods, to me, are very strong! It’s much more convenient to carry them around with me!

Acheron: Don’t worry. I’ve already thought of that! Hidden inside the Hundred Ghosts Parade painting is a huge space inside it. You can fuse the formation in the painting and cultivate it into a Divine Instrument! That way, you will be able to carry it around with you!

Chen Xiaobei: Wow! Who knew that there’s a function like that!  What are we waiting for? I’ll start now!

Acheron: Don’t get too excited just yet. You will need a lot of runes to deploy a formation! The bigger and stronger the formation, the more runes it will need! The Abyssal Spiritual Crystal you have can only be used to make Formation Core runes. The other runes will require a great amount of Spiritual Jade Stones! I can’t give those to you though!

Chen Xiaobei: Hehe! That’s convenient! I happen to have 810 runes from a Thousand Spirits Formation! I believe I can use them now!

Acheron: Thousand Spirits Formation? Can I take a look at the blueprint? If it’s a crappy formation, it’ll be incompatible with my Blood God Illusions!

Chen Xiaobei: Sure! I’ll send it to you now!

Chen Xiaobei sent the Thousand Spirits Formation’s blueprint that he recorded in his phone to Acheron.

After a few minutes, Acheron replied:

Acheron: You can use them! This Formation is nothing in the Heavenly Realm, but in the mortal realm, it’s considered a top-notch Formation! If you can gather 10,000 evil spirits, then you can trap and kill demigods!

Chen Xiaobei: Killing demigods is a topic for some other time. I have to resolve the problem at hand first.

Acheron: Bro, you have the formation and you have the runes. This problem can be easily resolved. I have something else to tell you though.

Chen Xiaobei: Please say it, bro!

Acheron: The Formation may be strong but there are three situations in which it can be broken! First, when the enemy’s strength is higher than that of the level of the formation! Second, when the enemy has something that can break the spell of the formation! Third, when the enemy sees through the formation, and then destroy the Formation Cores!

Chen Xiaobei: I’m not worried about the first two. My enemies are all elders, and their strength are below those of the demigods. Also, this is earth. They most probably would not posess any Spiritual Items strong enough!

Acheron: The one I wanted to talk to you about is the third point! You better put on a ‘jacket’ over this Divine Instrument, so that no one can see its Formation Cores!

Chen Xiaobei: ‘Jacket’? Oh, I understand! The 810 Formation Cores of the Thousand Spirits Formation are hidden deep inside the underground lake! I should hide the Formation Cores when I deploy my formation!

Acheron: I’d like to give you a suggestion: Zhao Yun’s Ride that Carries Victory would make the best jacket! That painting will be very effective at deterring enemies, where people won’t dare to take a closer look at it or stare at it for too long! There’s nothing more suitable than this painting to hide a formation!

Chen Xiaobei: How is it that you know that? 

Acheron: The underworld is my turf! I know everything that is known and everything that is unknown! 

Chen Xiaobei: Thank you again for the pointers!

Acheron: We are brothers! It’s nothing!

Chen Xiaobei: Even blood brothers have to their settle debts! You and I had never contacted each other. Why did you suddenly show up and help me? What is your motive?

Acheron: Hehe, Brother Xiaobei really is direct! I won’t beat around the bush either. I have my own reasons for helping you. But I can’t tell you just yet! There’s one thing you don’t have to worry about: before the calamity, I won’t harm you!

Chen Xiaobei: Then what about after the calamity?

Acheron: Well, that’s when you have to choose which side you’re on. We might be comrades or we could be enemies. We don’t know what will happen. So, we’ll have to see then.

Chen Xiaobei: I hope we would be allies!

Acheron: Haha, like I said, this is a Divine Secret!

Chen Xiaobei put away his phone. The prime of Tongtian said that it was alright for him to accept help from Acheron. So, Chen Xiaobei did not take what Acheron had said to heart.

What would happen in the future may be unpredictable, but human hearts were even more inconsistent.

Whatever that would happen in the future was a topic for another time.

Right now, Chen Xiaobei had began to work relentlessly on forging his first ever Divine Instrument.

He had taken everything out from the Infinite Space Ring.

Chen Xiaobei examined the Hundred Ghosts Parade Painting, and found that there was indeed a concealed space that originally accommodated one hundred ghosts.

What Chen Xiaobei needed to do now was to deploy the Thousand Spirits Formation inside this space.

The most difficult part of deploying a formation was creating the runes. But since he already had premade runes at hand, the process was pretty straightforward for Chen Xiaobei.

With the bluepient for reference, he placed all 802 Formation Cores accordingly into the concealed space.

For the remaining eight Formation Cores, Chen Xiaobei used Yan Wang’s Abyssal Spiritual Crystal to make eight new runes, and replaced the old runes that were made out of jade.

That way, even without the ten thousand evil spirits, the formation’s own Special Ability would improve and make up for the shortcomings.

After he had finished deploying the formation, Chen Xiaobei placed the painting into a Green Jade Cauldron, and then asked Hong Hai’er to spit Sanmei True Fire at it.

After Spiritual Items were activated with Special Abilities, it would be called Spiritual instruments.

When their Special Abilities reached the level of Divine Instruments, it would be called a Divine Instrument.

The Abyssal Spiritual Crystal was a Divine Instrument, the Thousand Spirit Formation could trap and kill demigods. When these two were combined, they would be also considered Divine Instruments!

The only problem now was time. Crafting Divine Instruments was not something that could be done in one or two days! Even though Sanmei True Fire was a Divine-tier flame, Spiritual Instruments were not a common thing. It could take months or even years to complete the crafting.

Chen Xiaobei frowned. A long night is fraught with dreams. The longer the delay, the more complications there would be.

Acheron sent you a message in a private chat.

“Wow! My bro is the best!”

Chen Xiaobei’s eyes lit up.
