Blackie spread out its claws and said, âI donât know! I went to meet Han Xue. Before I left, I saw Ye Manman, the master of the House of Enchanteurs on Hoth.â
Zhang Ruochen covered his forehead and sighed. He said, âThe master personally went to visit the disciple of the Master of the AvÄ«ci Pavilion. Didnât you go back to check it out?â
Blackie was stunned for a moment and said, âYes! Youâre right⊠Well, why donât I go and ask Han Xue now? No, I canât go out! What should I do?â
Zhang Ruochen calmed down and said, âYou said Han Xue came to Enchanton?
âOf course. The most important mission of the AvÄ«ci Pavilion is to rescue the Nephilim Islandâs master. And Hoth is the most important place to set up and manage after the rescue.
âIt can be said that on Hoth, apart from the Hoth Palace, the AvÄ«ci Pavilion is definitely a top-notch force. They even have their influence in the Enchanteur Chamber.
âSo, what happened in Enchanton canât be hidden from the eyes and ears of the AvÄ«ci Pavilion.
âI heard that something happened to you. How could Han Xue not come?â Blackie said in a matter-of-fact tone.
Zhang Ruochen said, âI have a bold guess. The actions of the Enchanteur Chamber are most likely not aimed at me but at the Tensho Compass!â
Hearing this, Blackie gasped and said, âIs the Enchanteur Chamber so bold?â
Zhang Ruochen said, âOther cultivators in the Enchanteur Chamber may not be so bold, but Bai Qingâer is. What do you think of this womanâs cultivation?â
âHer cultivation is quite high, but she is not as high as Wuma Jiuxing,â Blackie said seriously, which was rare.
Zhang Ruochen said, âBut I think there are traces of Wuma Jiuxingâs moves, while Bai Qingâer gives me an unfathomable feeling.â
Blackie was stunned and said, âDo you think Bai Qingâer is stronger than Wuma Jiuxing?â
âItâs just a feeling. My cultivation is not high enough to see through the level of these powerhouses. Also, it makes me wary. The Seven-Armed Elder could escape from the pursuit of a pseudo god, but Bai Qingâer almost killed him,â Zhang Ruochen said.
Blackie patted Zhang Ruochenâs shoulder with its paw and said, âYou have suffered too much at the hands of women, so you are too cautious.â
Zhang Ruochen did not dare to underestimate his opponent as Blackie did. He had suffered enough at the hands of Bai Qingâer. He said, âAlthough Bai Qingâer was born in the Enchanteur Chamber, her courage and boldness are the only ones I have ever seen, except for the gods.
âIn the Divine Domain of Destiny, she dared to target the strongest side of the Seven-Armed Elder and set up a bet. She almost won the bet.
âThe five superior-grade Divine Crystals of Origin guarded by 17 major forces were most likely stolen by her.
âShe even used the Adjudication Division to deal with me.
âThandee, Lord Huanxu, Cang Baizi, and Lord Ironclad all have a major force backing them. Yet, she dares to enslave these top-notch Supreme Saints.
âThinking about it, it makes one shudder. Itâs as if Bai Qingâer has all the major forces in the entire Infernal Court in her hands. Most importantly, all the major forces are still looking down on her. They donât even treat her as a top figure. Thatâs the scariest part.â
Blackieâs sharp beak opened and closed twice, âNow that you mention it, this woman is extremely daring. Thereâs really nothing she wouldnât dare to do. But why would she want to take the Tensho Compass? That is a divine artifact. Once itâs lost, the Fane of Destiny will fly into a rage. Although gods canât interfere with the secular world, the power of those below divinity of the Fane of Destiny is also extraordinary. No force can compare to it.â
Zhang Ruochen said, âAs far as I know, the Fane of Destiny has eliminated many dark forces with the guidance of the Tensho Compass. The top ten dark forces have all suffered significant losses because of it. In the past, some of the dark forces listed in the top ten were even completely wiped out.
âMaybe the Enchanteur Chamber doesnât dare to make a move on the Tensho Compass.
âBut what if the top 10 dark forces join hands?â
Blackie said, âThe Tensho Compass is big trouble for the dark forces. They are in constant fear. The Fane of Destinyâs influence is at its weakest now that all the gods have gone to the Jadeite Realm. They might really make a move.â
Zhang Ruochen smiled. âIn Bai Qingâerâs eyes, Iâm far from qualified to be her opponent. The only reason she wants to deal with me is the superior-grade Divine Crystal of Origin.â
âSince Whitey has put all her focus into the Tensho Compass, wonât we be able to escape easily?â Blackie laughed.
âEven if Bai Qingâer takes action, sheâll definitely wait until she catches me. If I were herâŠâ said Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen closed his eyes and carefully guessed Bai Qingâerâs thoughts. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and said, âIf I were her, I would definitely kill two birds with one stone. At the same time, I would seize the Tensho Compass and frame everything on the Heavenly Realm.â
Zhang Ruochen said, âIsnât the reason why the Enchanteur Chamber sealed off the Enchanton to capture the cultivators of the Heavenly Realm? Perhaps Bai Qingâer had already predicted that the Fane of Destiny would activate the Tensho Compass. If Iâm not mistaken, The cultivators of the Heaven Realm who want to kill me must have contacted Bai Qingâer. Itâs even possible that theyâve already reached Hoth.â
Blackie paced back and forth in the room. After a long while, he said, âIf your guess is correct, then this Whitey is indeed a ruthless character. Sheâs playing a big game of chess. How can you win against others? Thereâs no other way. I canât hide anymore. Iâm also laying my cards on the table!â
âWhat are you talking about?â Zhang Ruochen asked.
Blackie pointed at Zhang Ruochen with its paw and said, âJust hear me out! Actually, Iâm also a Hand of the World.â
Zhang Ruochen was not surprised at all.
âGive me some response? The Hand of the World was called a half-step Archsaint. The only difference was an Archsaintâs spiritual power was half a level lower. His attainments in array formations were no less than that of an Archsaint. He was not afraid of any enemies under divinity.â said Blackie as he looked at Zhang Ruochen expectantly.
Shouldnât there be a look of admiration and awe on his face?
Zhang Ruochen thought for a long time and said, âYouâve said so much, but I still donât understand. What is the difference between the Hand of the World and an Archsaint?â
Blackie really wanted to flap his wings and send Zhang Ruochen flying. He said very quickly, âThere is actually no difference between the attainments of the Hand of the World and an Archsaint in array formation. The difference is the word arch of an Archsaint.
âThe spiritual power of the Archsaint must reach at least level 69 and a half. After reaching that realm, when you set up the formation, you can break away from objects and directly use the precepts of heaven and earth to set up the formation. Moreover, the formation can mobilize the power of heaven and earth and transform it into the power of the formation. The power is endless.
âOf course, if the spiritual power of the Archsaint reaches level 70, it will naturally be stronger. No one below the true god is invincible. As for the pseudo gods, they will have to retreat when they meet the Archsaint with level 70 spiritual power.â
Zhang Ruochen said, âAccording to you, the difference between the Hand of the World and the Archsaint is not small!â
âItâs really tiring to talk to someone like you who doesnât know anything about arrays. The Archsaint can only set up arrays by leaving the carrier and directly mobilizing the precepts of heaven and earth to transform them into inscriptions of arrays. The arrays set up by the two are actually equally powerful. The Hand of the World can also set up arrays that the Archsaint can set up.â said Blackie.
Zhang Ruochen nodded and asked, âWhat does level 69 and a half of spiritual power mean? The Middle-stage of level 69?â
âThe middle-stage of level 69, the pinnacle of level 69, all belong to level 69. Level 69 and a half are above the pinnacle of level 69. It is a realm where you can peek into divinity and the mysteries of heaven and earth. It is the most difficult step for spiritual power to ascend godhood.â
Blackie was very proud. He said, âIâve been trapped in the Sacred Qiankun Wooden Picture Scroll for 100,000 years by that Old jackass Xumi. My spiritual power has changed a lot. Now that my cultivation has recovered, my spiritual power must have improved by leaps and bounds. I believe that Iâll reach level 69 and a half soon. When that time comes, please call me the Heaven and Earth Archsaint Slaughterer.â
âAfter all that, can you defeat Duan Lingfeng?â Zhang Ruochen asked.
Blackie immediately walked up to Zhang Ruochen and glanced at the Ring of Dimensions in his hand. It said, âDuan Lingfeng is an old Hand of the World. He must have refined many powerful arrays that can be used at any time.
âIf I want to deal with him, I must first refine an unparalleled killing array. I already have an idea. Once this array is refined, let alone Duan Lingfeng, even killing my way out of Enchanton will be a piece of cake.
âIsnât Whitey pressing us step by step? When the time comes, we can just walk out and confront the leaders of the 19 forces. Once this array is refined, they will be scared to behave themselves and not dare to attack.â
Zhang Ruochen did not have much hope. Blackie is full of bluff even if he discounted his bragged by thirty percent.
However, Blackieâs attainments in array formations were not to be underestimated.
So Zhang Ruochen asked, âWhat array do you want to refine? How many materials do you need?â
âThe demigod-level Great Array of Asterisms1, also known as the Dragon Horse Star Chart2. Of course, I also gave this array a more powerful name, the Grand Formation of Armageddon,â said Blackie.
Blackie looked very serious. He continued, âI donât need many materials either. Just three Supreme Artifacts and 28 Regal Artifacts. It will be best if they are Class Three Regal Artifacts and above. In addition, I need 100,000 Godstones.
âItâs best to refine them into one set. So, we need a divine corpse. Only the divine corpse could bear the demigod array. The Heaven-devouring Genbu Formation refined by Duan Lingfeng uses the shell of a divine beast Genbu to bear it.â
Blackie didnât even look at Zhang Ruochenâs face. He continued to speak with confidence, âYou see, Duan Lingfeng is only the Hand of the World. He canât directly transform the precepts of heaven and earth into the inscription of an array. Itâs also difficult to borrow a large amount of heaven and earth power. He can only mobilize a large number of spiritual-power Saint Masters to work together to activate the array.
âBut my Grand Formation of Armageddon can be activated by the vessel spirits of three Supreme Artifacts and 28 Regal Artifacts. All you need to do is put many Godstones into the internal space of the sacred artifacts.
âOf course, these are only the main materials. You need thousands of auxiliary materials. Youâve collected so many treasures in the Dragon Temple ruins. The treasures will definitely be of use. I wonât tell you everything. Just give me the Ring of Dimensions, and Iâll look for it myself⊠cough, cough, whatâs with the look in your eyes?â
Blackie finally realized that something was wrong with Zhang Ruochenâs eyes.
âIâm here to help you, not to steal your treasures. Think about it. Once the formation is complete, the gods and demons will fear us. Who dares to make an enemy of us? Celestial Court and Infernal Court will have to make way for us.â
Zhang Ruochen said, âI have a few Supreme Artifacts on me. I have many Regal Artifacts. Itâll be worth it if I can refine the Great Array of Asterisms and throw them in.â
âThen what are you worried about?â Blackie asked.
Zhang Ruochen really wanted to kick it. He thought, âCanât you see what Iâm worried about? How many reliable things have you done?â
If Blackie failed to refine the array, the loss would be so significant that even the gods would cry.
