Chapter 1681: A Successful Plan
"3,000 years! Done!" Chen Xiaobei grinned. "Next, it's time to use my maximum power! Hehe..."
Chen Xiaobei sat down on the floor of the ocean and began to propagate his Blood Descendant's special ability.
The fastest way for Chen Xiaobei to locate the three Earth-God instruments was to use his Astral Projection.
Chen Xiaobei closed his eyes, and as his breath began to slow to a halt, Chen Xiaobei's 'spirit' rose like a little ball of fire, a translucent fire which was barely visible unless searched.
In actual fact, it was not Chen Xiaobei's real spirit but a unique Special Ability similar to that of the Primordial Spirit.
Chen Xiaobei could diffuse a distinct divine sense that allowed him to sense the things around him - just like the Demonic Beast's Primordial Spirit!
The only difference was that Chen Xiaobei's Special Ability was way more powerful than the beast's Primordial Spirit.
While the beast could only sense things within a hundred-mile radius, Chen Xiaobei's Special Ability covered an area of hundreds of thousands of miles - a hundred times broader!
Last time, Chen Xiaobei's Special Ability covered the entire Afang Palace.
This time, it was able to cover the entire area of the wreckage.
On top of that, Chen Xiaobei's Special Ability could detect everything that had Spiritual Attributes!
Chen Xiaobei had previously used this move to find all the blood-red pills and solved the Afang Palace secret.
This time was no exception,
"Found it!" Chen Xiaobei exclaimed excitedly.
There were many Spiritual Items scattered all over the rubble. But their Spiritual Attributes were not very strong.
All these must have been the items that made up the altar and the materials for the sealing formation.
Among these scattered broken Spiritual Items, there were three spots where the Spiritual Attribute was very strong!
Those were without a doubt the places where the three two-star Earth-God instruments were buried.
Chen Xiaobei stopped the Special Ability.
When he thought about how his Special Ability was a hundred times more effective than the Demonic Beast's, he could not help but feel exultant. "God-Ascension demigods have to work hard to grow their Primordial Spirit! But it is only when they break through to the next level of Primordial Spirit Earth-God could they generate a Primordial Spirit! My cultivation is low as hell and yet I am able to release a more powerful 'Primordial Spirit'! Wahahah..."
With the three locations confirmed, Chen Xiaobei went ahead and dug out the Earth-God instruments.
They were a shimmery, iridescent clamshell, a long war bow shaped like a jiaolong*, and a trident made of copper!
"Wow! These are Two-star Earth-God instruments? Their Spiritual Attributes are really strong... At full capacity, the strength from these instruments should be ten times stronger than the Chaos Blood Sword!"
Chen Xiaobei connected with all three of the instruments, and he was brimming with excitement.
"If I take off with these three Earth-God Instruments now, I can kill novice Earth-Gods at Diaochan's level without a problem! That will be awesome!" Chen Xiaobei shook his head. "No! No! I'm a person who values friendship! A young man of principles! If I leave, the merpeople are doomed!"
The image of the 100,000 people sending him off was still fresh in his mind. He could not betray the lives of those upright and courageous soldiers for his selfish gains.
"Hmm, I cannot covet after these things! I have to hurry up and rebuild the altar and the formation! I don't have much time left!"
Chen Xiaobei redirected his focus and used his Netherspirit Battlescouter.
Ding!
[Cultivation: Early phase of Ethereal Cultivation; Lifespan: 2,870 years; Health: 200,000; Combat power: 180,000]
Using the Blood Descendants' power-hungry special ability deducted 300 years from Chen Xiaobei's lifespan.
If he had not eaten the Ginseng Fruit, he would have died instantly after using the Special Ability.
After Chen Xiaobei stowed the Earth-God Instruments away, he took out the blueprint of the original altar and the sealing formation.
"The sealing formation is embedded inside the altar. This means that when I build the altar, I will have to build the formation at the same time..."
Chen Xiaobei held both pieces of paper in his hands and began to study them.
A giant altar and a high-grade formation with 3,000 high-level runes would easily take a normal person five to ten years to rebuild!
But now, Chen Xiaobei only had about 22 hours remaining!
And that was the final cut-off time. Chen Xiaobei had to complete it before the schedule or the merpeople troops who were setting up defence will have to face the Demonic Beast.
If that were to happen, there would be countless dead and injured.
So, realistically speaking, Chen Xiaobei actually had less than 10 hours to seal in the beast!
That was exactly why although the merpeople trusted Chen Xiaobei, they dared not completely trust that he would be able to complete the task.
Rebuilding the altar and formation under 10 hours was a farfetched fable that even children would never have believed would be possible!
But of course, Chen Xiaobei had a planned course of action.
With the help of the Scholar Heart, Chen Xiaobei studied and committed to memory the two extremely complicated and detailed blueprints within two hours.
Once he was done, he tucked the two blueprints away before pulling out another one.
It was not a very large piece of paper, about the size of a book, but the drawings on it were elaborate and intricate.
Yes! It was the basis of Chen Xiaobei's confidence - The Tiangong Construction Blueprint!
It was with this magical Divine Instrument that Chen Xiaobei had managed to rebuild Atlantis!
Right now, Chen Xiaobei stood before the wreckage while raising the Tiangong Construction Blueprint with both hands and began to build a Spiritual Connection.
Promptly, a blueprint appeared in Chen Xiaobei's mind.
Having memorized the layout of the altar and the formation by heart, he began to reconstruct them in his mind!
His Scholar Heart's enhanced super brain allowed him to compute information faster and more efficiently than a supercomputer.
However, because the altar was of such a substantial proportion, it still took him three hours to complete the figments of structures in his mind.
After that, Chen Xiaobei spent another hour inspecting his work. With the little time he had left, he could not afford to make any mistakes.
"Alright! There should be no problem!" Chen Xiaobei exhaled as he looked at the final blueprint. "Create!"
Ding!
