Chapter 3653: The Plan for Recovery

“If I were in peak condition, awakening these generals would be nothing difficult, but I’ve only barely awakened myself. I’m still in a weakened state, so you’ll have to find a way to recover the Primeval Divine Hall’s energy if you want to awaken the generals,” said the artifact spirit of the Primeval Divine Hall.

“In other words, you can’t even awaken a single general right now?” Jian Chen sighed gently.

“If I were to force myself to awaken one, I’d have to exhaust all of the energy I’ve recovered so far, but I should be able to awaken the weakest general. However, I will also sink into a lengthy slumber,” said the artifact spirit of the Primeval Divine Hall.

“I have quite a lot of immortal crystals in my possession. How much energy can they recover for you?” Jian Chen asked.

With a thought, the artifact spirit of the Primeval Divine Hall immediately found out about the five-coloured immortal crystals that almost reached two million in number in Jian Chen’s Space Ring. “Master, if I were to use immortal crystals to recover, it would take an extremely large quantity. After all, to sovereign god artifacts on my level, even five-coloured immortal crystals don’t have a particularly obvious effect.”

“Five-coloured immortal crystals are precious because of the power of ways inside them. However, the power of ways is useless to me. I don’t need the power of ways. However, if you ignore the power of ways, the energy within a five-coloured immortal crystal is basically no greater than a supreme grade immortal crystal,” said the artifact spirit of the Primeval Divine Hall.

In reality, there were tremendous differences between five-coloured immortal crystals and supreme grade immortal crystals. Just the energy purity contained within them was on completely different levels.

However, the quality of the Primeval Divine Hall was far too high. To a sovereign god artifact, there were basically no differences between five-coloured immortal crystals and supreme grade immortal crystals.

Jian Chen had obtained a five-coloured immortal crystal in the lower world before, which the sword spirits cherished like absolute treasure, but the state that the sword spirits were in back then came nowhere close to the Primeval Divine Hall’s current state.

The energy requirements were completely different as well. Because the twin swords lacked physical bodies back then, they had become so feeble that they probably could not even rival immortal artifacts.

However, the Primeval Divine Hall needed to expend enough energy to awaken an Immortal Emperor or even an Immortal Exalt.

“Master, if you can find more essence blood of Saints, then I should be able to recover much faster,” said the artifact spirit.

“You can forget about that. I have no way of obtaining more.” Jian Chen directly dismissed the artifact spirit’s suggestion. Then he added, “I’m in desperate need of powerful assistance right now. Are there any other ways that can allow you to awaken a powerful general quickly?”

“Master, I don’t have the Saint’s curse suppressing me anymore, so I’m completely capable of drawing energy from outer space by myself to recover. Give me a millennium to recover, and I’ll have recovered enough energy to awaken the weakest Immortal Exalt general.”

“The weakest Immortal Exalt general? That might not be particularly useful to me. What do you need to awaken the Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts?”

“Unless I’ve recovered at least seventy percent of my strength, or even all of it, I can’t awaken those five generals. They’re far too powerful and have been slumbering for just too long, so awakening them will be particularly difficult,” said the artifact spirit.

Jian Chen fell silent. He could already tell that the stronger the generals were, the more difficult it was to awaken them.

At this moment, the artifact spirit’s expression changed as it suddenly said, “Master, I can sense an extremely profound formation diagram on you. If you can carve out the formation on the diagram, just the power of the formation alone will allow me to absorb spiritual Qi faster than using immortal crystals.”

With a thought, the formation scroll for the Divine Formation of the Heavens that he had obtained from the artifact spirit of the Observance Heaven City appeared in Jian Chen’s hand. “You’re talking about this?”

“Yes, that. This formation is extremely profound. At the very least, it’s created by a Saint. Even if you don’t use it in battle and only use it to gather energy, it will do so at an extremely terrifying speed. Even the energy-gathering formations of some major organisations won’t come close to it. Master, if you set up the formation in the Primeval Divine Hall, I’ll be able to draw in the endless energy of outer space given that I work proactively.”

“If it’s just gathering spiritual Qi, this shouldn’t be the Divine Formation of the Heavens’ forte. I have another formation used to gather spiritual Qi in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. Artifact spirit, a divine mountain hovers above the main peak of our sect. Why don’t you take a look to see if it can gather spiritual Qi fast enough?” Jian Chen’s eyes shone brightly.

The artifact spirit was doubtful, but in the next moment, its eyes shone brightly as it said excitedly, “What a wondrous god artifact. The mountain doesn’t even seem to be in its complete state. If I’m not wrong, the mountain should only be part of a formation. Its complete state should consist of many more mountains.”

“However, just a single mountain alone possesses such wondrous effects. Just its surface level powers can draw in all the spiritual Qi within millions of kilometres. If you could activate it completely, if you could complete the formation…”

As he said that, the artifact spirit of the Primeval Divine Hall’s eyes shone brighter and brighter.

“It’s a pity that the Energy-gathering Divine Mountain has already merged with the space here, becoming a part of it. I’m still not capable of separating them.” Jian Chen sighed gently. There were a total of eighteen Energy-gathering Divine Mountains. The seventeen others had already been lost. Now, only this one remained in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

“Master, the formation you possess can slice through time and space. You only need the bare minimum of its power to cut the divine mountain from the space here,” said the artifact spirit.

“The Divine Formation of the Heavens?” Jian Chen looked at the ancient formation scroll in his hands subconsciously. He had already developed a plan going forward.

“Looks like I need to refine the high grade Godking pills quickly. Fifty thousand Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals along with me should be enough to set up the bare minimum of the Divine Formation of the Heavens.”

“However, if I want to fully unleash the power of the Divine Formation of the Heavens, then I’ll need eight Immortal Exalts, fifty Immortal Emperors, and five hundred Immortal Monarchs.”

“The Divine Formation of the Heavens is a Grand Exalt’s formation. If I can complete it, I’ll be invincible beneath Grand Exalts. By then, the Divine Formation of the Heavens will be even more useful than the Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt general.”

Jian Chen gradually smiled. With the Primeval Divine Hall and the Divine Formation of the Heavens, the future of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens no longer seemed as gloomy as he once thought.

Basically, there would be no peak organisations that could pose a destructive threat towards the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens apart from Grand Exalts.

“Where’s my Primeval Qi? Jian Chen, shouldn’t you give me the Primeval Qi that you originally promised me?” At this moment, a crisp and touching voice rang out in Jian Chen’s head, filled with a sense of undisguised eagerness and joy.

The artifact spirit of the Source of Life clearly sensed the awakening of the Primeval Divine Hall. It immediately appeared.

“Artifact spirit, can you provide me with a strand of Primeval Qi right now? I did promise her in the past,” Jian Chen said helplessly.

The artifact spirit of the Primeval Divine Hall’s face immediately became ugly when he heard that. “Master, Primeval Qi is my body. I can shed some strands of Primeval Qi, but given how feeble I am, it will only delay when I return to my peak condition by many, many years if I shed it right now.”

“As a result, it’s best if I shed the Primeval Qi from my main body once you’ve awakened the generals. That way, even if I am weakened momentarily, it won’t affect you by much.”

“I don’t care. I want it right now. I’ve already waited for many years now,” the artifact spirit of the Source of Life was like a spoiled princess as she said without any tolerance.

“As an important source of assistance to my master, we should be thinking of our master. You can’t get in master’s way for the sake of your own matters.” The artifact spirit of the Primeval Divine Hall scolded it.

“Hmph, he’s not my master. I was only coerced into following him for a hundred thousand years.” The artifact spirit of the Source of Life snorted gently.
