Forging artifacts was meticulous work. Any slight flaw could lead to the failure of the Relic, or at least, the grade of the Relic would be degraded.
Under normal circumstances, it would be fine since the Relic could be made again. However, this was a competition. Lu Li and Qian Huanhan did not have the luxury of time.
It was almost impossible for a flawed piece of work to stand out.
In that case, Lu Li would not have the chance to go to the semi-finals and meet Lu Ling. His trip to the Craftsman's City would be in vain.
Lu Ling was the No. 2 on the list. Even Lou Shi 'er and Holy Princess could not enter her residence. She must have a powerful background, which was beyond Lu Li's imagination.
Her information and information were confidential. If Lu Li could not meet her this time, it would be even less likely for him to meet her in the future. It could be decades or even centuries later …
Lu Li decided to take the risk after some thoughts. He said to Qian Huanhan, "Keep an eye out for me. I will go into the interspatial artifact and try to fix the formation."
"Buzzing ~"
Lu Li took out the Wicked Bead and dashed in. It was highly likely that he would be exposed.
If a powerful warrior happened to be spying on him, the Wicked Bead would be exposed at once.
"Fix?"
Qian Huanhan was confused. How could the formation be fixed when there was a problem with it?
That being said, Qian Huanhan had always trusted Lu Li so he did not think too much.
As for the Wicked Bead, Qian Huanhan did not pay much attention. He thought it was just an average interspatial artifact.
"This bead …"
What Qian Huanhan and Lu Li did not know was that someone was secretly checking inside the Tower of Weapons. Lu Li had built a formation, but it did not make any difference to that powerful warrior.
He was a patriarch of the Craftsmen's Sect, a master craftsman, Patriarch Ying!
Liu and Yan sent a message to Patriarch Ying, telling him that Qian Huanhan and Lu Li had forged a Relic. Patriarch Ying was the representative of this generation of masters of formations.
Patriarch Ying was not supposed to come to the competition of craftsmen. It was a master craftsman of formations that piqued Patriarch Ying's interest.
Therefore, as soon as Qian Huanhan and Lu Li entered the Tower of Weapons, Patriarch Ying began to pay attention. A master craftsman wanted to check on Lu Li. Could Lu Li's formation stop him?
"Wicked Bead!"
Patriarch Hawk recognized the Wicked Bead right away. After all, the Wicked Bead was the work that made Tian Lingzi famous. Later on, Tian Lingzi had been using the Wicked Bead. It was said that the Wicked Bead contained treasures collected by Tian Lingzi throughout his life.
"So you have learned Tian Lingzi's forging technique, no wonder you know how to condense formations …"
Elder Ying's eyes flickered slightly like a goshawk that had discovered a rabbit.
Elder Shi sensed something and turned his head curiously, asking softly, "What's wrong, Old Eagle?"
"It's nothing!" Elder Ying smiled faintly and said, "I discovered something interesting. You'll know later."
Since Elder Eagle didn't want to say anything, Elder Shi didn't want to probe further. Elder Snake, who was beside him, also didn't probe further.
When Lu Li went into the Wicked Bead, the immortal's body came over. Lu Li said to Blood Fairy, "There is something wrong with the formations I carved. Can you see how to fix them?"
Given Lu Li's abilities, it was practically impossible to repair the formation or erase it and start over. Time was running out. Lu Li had to pin his hopes on the Bloodvine.
The Bloodvine was gifted in Inhibition Formations. It was the only one that could help Lu Li.
The immortal's body grabbed the iron ball Lu Li handed over. The Bloodvine reached out a tentacle into the iron ball. A moment later, Blood Fairy's voice came to Lu Li's mind, "Master, you have finished the 10 Inhibition Formations. It will be difficult to repair them. You might mess up all the Inhibition Formations."
"Is there no other way?"
Lu Li was worried. If even Blood Fairy could not find a way, then the fight would be a complete failure.
Blood Fairy said after a moment of silence, "I do have a way. I can try to change the formation patterns. But once I do that, it will turn into a different kind of formation. I don't know the specific effect …"
"Change?"
Lu Li's eyes glowed. Formations were a matter of great care. Changing one pattern at random could result in the entire formation changing drastically or rendering it ineffective.
If Blood Fairy changed it into something neither fish nor fowl, then it would be even more troublesome.
But did Lu Li have any other options?
"Change!"
Soon, Lu Li made up his mind. He remembered the test he took at the Chamber of Relics. Back then, Blood Fairy changed several Spirit Gathering Formations. When they were integrated, the formation became more powerful. That was the reason why Lu Li entered the Chamber of Relics.
Perhaps this modification could make the array even more powerful?
The Bloodvine's tentacle glowed in red. She began to change the formation.
The Bloodvine clan had a strange Divine Power that allowed them to merge into a magic formation and change it easily without damaging it.
Time moved on. Lu Li's heart was in his throat. After the time for three incense sticks to burn, Blood Fairy finally said, "Master, it is done. But I don't know the specific effect. The formation is flawless now. It is perfect!"
Lu Li checked at once. The formation had changed so much that he could not even tell what it was …
But he checked the patterns. They were in order, connected, and interconnected. It seemed to be perfect, without any flaw or problem.
"Never mind. Let's make every possible effort!"
Lu Li dashed out and reappeared in the Tower of Relics. Time was of the essence. He threw the iron ball to Qian Huanhan and said, "Do the next two steps. Do your best!"
"Is it done?"
Qian Huanhan asked in delight. Lu Li shook his head. "I don't know. Don't worry about it. Focus on sealing the artifact spirits and stabilizing the formation. Do not fail. Otherwise, we will not have another chance."
"Okay!"
Qian Huanhan took a deep breath. He was solemn. He checked the formation and then took over the Bead of Artifact Spirit to check.
There were many artifact spirits sealed in the Bead of Artifact Spirit. For a moment, Qian Huanhan did not know which one to choose. After all, he did not know what kind of formation Lu Li had built.
Lu Li could tell that Qian Huanhan was struggling. To be honest, Qian Huanhan did not know which one to seal. Lu Li made up his mind and said, "Choose the best one. Don't worry about the attribute!"
"Alright …"
Qian Huanhan threw caution to the wind. He began to seal the artifact spirit. He poured Xuan Energy into the bead. From the Bead of Artifact Spirit came out a red shadow of a lion.
A dark glove appeared in Qian Huanhan's hand. He grabbed the artifact spirit and shoved it into the bead. Then, divine energy began to seal the artifact spirit.
"Ha, ha, it is a good fit. Brother Li, we are lucky!"
Qian Huanhan grinned after a while. Then, he stopped to calm himself down and began the last step.
After the time for three incense sticks to burn, Qian Huanhan patted the stove. The lid flew up and a white iron ball flew up. The white iron ball was glowing and it was quite intimidating.
"Nice ball ~"
Qian Huanhan took over the iron ball and took a look. He was excited. He did not know what the ball could be used for, but it was definitely … a good ball!
