The Lord of the Universe

Ch.37 - Terms & Rewards

“As said, formation experts are more arrogant and haughty than Alchemists.” Xiang Shin muttered inwardly.

The Alchemists despite being arrogant and arrogant, they were still aware that their combat power was lacking. However for formation experts, they could use formation arrays to attack and defend as well as do many other things.

That was what made the formation experts become even more arrogant and haughty.

“The elders, I am Xiang Shin, an independent cultivator,” Xiang Shin cupped his hands, “I actually do not want to do the Formation Expert exam.”

“Hah?”

The expressions of the 3 middle-aged men instantly turned cold.

“Do you want to play us, boy!”

“Remember now where you were before you over-acted!”

“You will die if you dare to play us!”

The three of them instantly released their aura pressure that was centered on Xiang Shin.

The floor of the room cracked and Xiang Shin's feet entered several centimeters into the floor, but he still stood upright as if he felt nothing.

“Calm the elders, I didn't mean to play you guys. I just want to show you something,” Xiang Shin raised his right index finger.

A moment later a white magic circle with a diameter of several meters appeared on the tip of his index finger. The magic circle gave off a powerful aura, suppressing the aura of the elders until they were pushed back.

The elders became wary of Xiang Shin, they now realized the young man was not simple.

“Bokah! Do you want to cause trouble in the Formation Hall?! You will receive the consequences if you create trouble with us formation experts!”

“I have absolutely no ill intentions,” Xiang Shin still maintains his composure, “I told you I want to show you this. Now as a formation expert, can you guys analyze this energy circle?”

The elders frowned before turning towards the white magic circle.

“What is it? Arrangement of circle formations?”

“I don't think it's a circle formation. At first glance it is similar but obviously it is different.”

“Didn't you see earlier if the young man directly popped the circle from his index finger? If it was a formation array he should have used formation paper or formation crystals first!”

“True too, then what? Only a tier 9 formation expert could create formation arrays without media like formation papers and such.”

“But even that requires hand seals first, while this young man does not do hand seals. So it was clear the answer was only one, it was not a formation array.”

The three elders began to analyze the magic circle, yet they had no idea what it was. As they knew, the magic circle made a special protector for Xiang Shin and resisted any ill effects from the outside until they could not exert any aura pressure on Xiang Shin.

It means that the circle has the same use as the protective formation array. It's just that it's not a formation array.

Or perhaps it was a new type of formation array that did not require hand seals to form it?

“This is called a magic circle, something similar to a formation array. The array of formations might be more flexible and have many uses, but magic circles could be easier to use since they could be formed directly by Qi energy!..

I want to show these to the elders. So, are the elders interested in my magic circle?”

Xiang Shin knew that the formation array required spiritual energy to form it, not Qi energy.

In the previous world, spiritual energy in a mental power, the greater the mental strength, the stronger it was in the face of pressure like killing aura and such.

But there is no known other use of this mental strength until rarely people who train it. Whereas in this world of cultivators, mental strength or so-called spiritual energy was extremely useful.

People with great spiritual energy would be greatly exalted as they could become Alchemists as well as formation experts.

Xiang Shin himself did not have much spiritual energy as he rarely practiced it either. If done comparison with his Qi energy then his spiritual energy did not even reach 1/10th the amount of Qi energy.

“Junior Xiang Shin, previously we have not introduced ourselves. I am Gu Nam, they are Kun Hong and Su Lang.”

Those elders now no longer underestimated Xiang Shin.

“You showed us something new like that, do you need anything?” ask Gu Nam.

“Absolutely the elder, I need help from a formation expert who is at least at level 8. Is there a level 8 formation expert in this Formation Hall?”

The three middle-aged men looked at each other before looking back at Xiang Shin.

“Unfortunately junior Xiang Shin, in this Formation Hall there are no Formation Experts level 8, the highest being at level 7. If you may know, why would junior Xiang Shin want to ask for help from a high-level formation expert?”

“I have 2 friends whose bodies have seals. Since the person who put the seal on is dead so the seal should have exploded, yet I used the magic circle to weaken the seal and hold back so that the seal does not explode immediately!..

That's why I need help from a level 8 formation expert. It's not that I underestimated a level 7 formation expert, but I don't want to risk my friend exploding. If the elder can help me obtain a level 8 formation expert then I will give you the magic circle formula.”

The three beak men were stunned then smiled widely.

“Just calm junior Xiang Shin, even though in this Formation Hall there are no level 8 formation experts, but that does not mean there are no formation experts at level 8 in the Moon Empire,”, said Kun Hong.

“Who?” Xiang Shin asked quickly.

“The Heaven Formation Sect is the largest sect in the Moon Empire. It was the branch of the God Formation Sect in this empire!..

The Formation Hall is indeed also a branch of the God Formation Sect, but we only serve as a business branch for the sect. Unlike the branch sects who were in charge of recruiting talented formation experts. The chairman of the Heaven Formation Sect is our senior, he is a level 8 formation expert. We can ask him to help your friend that.”

“Then please help the elder,” Xiang Shin cupped his hands, “but I will give you this magic circle formula if my two friends can be cured. No problem right?”

The three middle-aged men thought for a moment before Su Lang replied.

“I don't think it's a problem. The matter of removing the seal is our forte, what else our senior is great. He can definitely save your two friends.”

They trust their senior abilities. So they were sure to get the magic circle formula.
