Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3628: Grand Exalt’s Formation

“Divine Formation of the Heavens?” Jian Chen’s eyes shone. This was the first time he had heard of this formation, but despite not knowing how extraordinary it was, the sword spirits’ proactive mention of it was already an indirect indication of its value.

At the very least, the formation was much more valuable than the treasures that the artifact spirit of the Observance Heaven City had taken out so far.

Jian Chen gathered his focus and slowly glanced past the balls of blinding light in the air. In the end, he shook his head gently and said, “Artifact spirit, the items you’ve taken out are indeed extremely precious, but unfortunately, I don’t need any of them.”

The artifact spirit of the Observance Heaven City immediately panicked in response. Heavenly resources with Xuanhuang Qi were extremely rare in the Immortals’ World, basically all in the possession of certain major organisations. None of these major organisations were fools. They would never offer up such precious heavenly resources to the Observance Heaven City. Now that it had finally encountered someone who possessed a large amount of Xuanhuang Qi on them, the artifact spirit obviously refused to let this opportunity just slip by.

“Chang Yang, you better take a closer look. There’s definitely something that you need here.” The artifact spirit waved its hand and several dozen more balls of blinding light appeared out of nowhere.

The items that appeared this time were clearly even more precious. Apart from some even more ancient records and secret techniques, Jian Chen even discovered a few treasures that could be used to increase cultivation.

What tempted him the most were three Fruits of Nurturing Ways!

And they had fully ripened. They were Fruits of Nurturing Ways that had already ripened to high grade God Tier!

High grade God Tier Fruit of Nurturing Ways had an eighty percent chance for a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch to break through to Immortal Emperor.

As a result, without any exaggeration, the three high grade God Tier Fruits of Nurturing Ways were already sufficient to produce three Immortal Emperors.

Immortal Emperors were what the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens was in desperate need of!

As a result, Jian Chen was truly tempted when he saw the three Fruits of Nurturing Ways.

But very soon, he calmed down again. While the Fruits of Nurturing Ways could produce Immortal Emperors, that was dependent upon having Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch candidates.

So far, the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens only had two Immortal Monarchs. Even the strongest, Chen Shifang, was only at the Seventh Heavenly Layer. There was still quite a distance before he reached the Ninth Heavenly Layer.

It would be a very long time into the future before he could use the Fruits of Nurturing Ways.

“You need the three Fruits of Nurturing Ways, don’t you?” The artifact spirit sensed the fluctuations in Jian Chen’s emotions. In the next moment, the three Fruits of Nurturing Ways appeared before Jian Chen in blinding light.

“Give me enough Xuanhuang Qi and the three Fruits of Nurturing Ways will be yours,” said the artifact spirit of the Observance Heaven City.

“No, I don’t need Fruits of Nurturing Ways.” Jian Chen’s gaze never paused on the three Fruits of Nurturing Ways. He stared at the artifact spirit in interest and said, “Senior artifact spirit, if you really want to exchange for the Xuanhuang Qi in my possession, there are two options.”

“One, give me Stainless Qi!”

“Or, give me the Divine Formation of the Heavens!”

“The Divine Formation of the Heavens? Why do you want that? The Divine Formation of the Heavens is very powerful, but it’s completely useless to you, as you’re nowhere close to fulfilling the conditions for setting it up,” the artifact spirit of the Observance Heaven City said with a frown.

“What are the conditions for arranging the Divine Formation of the Heavens?” Jian Chen asked curiously.

“It requires a sovereign god artifact as its formation core, as well as eight Immortal Exalts, fifty Immortal Emperors, five hundred Immortal Monarchs, and fifty thousand Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals. Apart from the Observance Heaven City, there are no organisations in the Immortals’ World that fulfill these conditions,” said the artifact spirit of the Observance Heaven City.

Jian Chen immediately gasped. He could not help but cry out, “What exactly is this Divine Formation of the Heavens? It actually has such stringent conditions! Don’t tell me it’s a Grand Exalt’s formation?”

“The Divine Formation of the Heavens is indeed a Grand Exalt’s formation,” said the artifact spirit.

Jian Chen’s heart began to thump. Eight Immortal Exalts, fifty Immortal Emperors, five hundred Immortal Monarchs, and fifty thousand Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals. Those numbers made him think of the posts in the Observance Heaven City.

The people required to arrange the Divine Formation of the Heavens aligned with the number of posts available in the Observance Heaven City perfectly.

Then he thought of the locations of the fifty general’s estates within the Observance Heaven City and the arrangement of each estate. It seemed to form a special formation.

“So that is the Divine Formation of the Heavens.” Realisation flashed through Jian Chen’s head. He finally understood why the Observance Heaven City had to ensure all of its posts were occupied. It was clearly prepared to make use of the Divine Formation of the Heavens at any moment.

It used cultivation in the sacred lands to draw over the prodigies of the Immortals’ World, relying on their strength to constantly remain in peak condition.

Jian Chen sucked in a deep breath and slowly calmed himself down. His eyes began to burn with interest. He had already fulfilled two of the stringent conditions of the Divine Formation of the Heavens.

The first one was the sovereign god artifact!

The second one was the fifty thousand Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals!

Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals corresponded to Godkings. He did not have fifty thousand Godkings right now, but he had high grade Godking pills. He was completely capable of nurturing fifty thousand Godkings in a short amount of time.

According to Jian Chen’s understanding, at least in the Saints’ World, no organisation possessed fifty thousand Godkings.

Even those peak organisations would only have a little more than ten thousand Godkings. Even at most, the number would struggle to exceed thirty thousand.

Even during the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens’ prime with its ten Immortal Exalts and almost a hundred Immortal Emperors, its number of Godkings constantly fluctuated around twenty thousand.

That was because that realm of cultivation happened to be the mainstay of an organisation. It was also their most active group of people, so the casualties they suffered were obviously the greatest as well.

“I want the Divine Formation of the Heavens!” Jian Chen’s gaze became determined. He had already fulfilled the most stringent condition. As for the remaining eight Immortal Exalts, fifty Immortal Emperors, and five hundred Immortal Monarchs, he could come up with ideas later. If he ran out of options, he could recruit them externally.

And, according to his understanding, this arrangement was the peak state of the Divine Formation of the Heavens. There was absolutely no need for him to unleash the entire Divine Formation of the Heavens. Even just a small part of its power was enough.

“If you want the Divine Formation of the Heavens, it’ll depend on how much Xuanhuang Qi you have.” The artifact spirit’s lips curled upwards with a hint of excitement and eagerness.

Afterwards, Jian Chen opened up the space in his soul and began to pull out piles after piles of heavenly resources with Xuanhuang Qi from inside.

The heavenly resources stored in the space in his soul rapidly diminished. At this moment, it was as if he was clearly out his entire inventory.

But fortunately, the artifact spirit was only interested in Xuanhuang Qi. It was not actually interested in the grade of the heavenly resources themselves. As a result, the artifact spirit accepted all of the heavenly resources from Jian Chen irrespective of quality as long as they came from the Xuanhuang Microcosm.

Otherwise, it really would have been impossible for Jian Chen to produce so many God Tier heavenly resources all at once.

Immediately, the air became filled with Xuanhuang Qi. A pile of heavenly resources that resembled a small mountain shone with a faint, yellow haze.

In the end, Jian Chen took out over eighty percent of his Immortal Tier heavenly resources, coupled with a small number of low grade God Tier heavenly resources. Finally, he reached the required quantity for the Divine Formation of the Heavens.

“That’s enough. This is enough to exchange for a formation scroll of the Divine Formation of the Heavens.” The artifact spirit smiled brightly like it had just found treasure. Shortly afterwards, as if it was afraid that Jian Chen would change his mind, it stowed away all of the heavenly resources with a flip of its hand.

At the same time, a simple scroll appeared before Jian Chen. The scroll shimmered with light, giving off a tremendous and ancient presence. Who knew how long it had existed for already.

“Not only does the formation scroll record the method to arrange the Divine Formation of the Heavens, but it is already crucial to setting up the formation, as the formation requires a special power for it to work. The special power is stored within the scroll.”

“Once you lose the scroll, you won’t be able to get the Divine Formation of the Heavens working even if you possessed the detailed method to arrange it.”
