Chapter 40: Chapter 40 - The Formation's Spirit

Returning to Nathan and the two spiritual ornaments' side, back when Theodore had just lost consciousness

Nathan lightly frowned when he saw his disciple collapse, falling unconscious on the platform. He condensed the mana he had already gathered at the tip of his hand, ready to release it.

The Impending Doom and the Misty Blade also made a loud buzzing sound together as they prepared for the attack. After waiting so long, they finally had a chance to have a new master; how could they reconcile with losing him?

When Nathan and the two armaments were ready to break into the formation to bring Theodore out, a voice interrupted them.

"Don't worry, he is fine." A mysterious and friendly voice rang out from inside the formation. The sound was clear and ethereal, echoing throughout the hall room but still distinguishable that it was a woman's voice.

'It was the formation's spirit.' Nathan speculated after some deduction.

Similar to the spiritual weapons, there were methods for other objects, including the formation, to awaken their consciousness. With the spirituality, they were also much more tricky to deal with.

Considering the difficulty of subduing the formation with a formation's spirit, Nathan decided to listen to its explanation first; it would not be too late to break in afterward. 

With this thought, Nathan faintly dispersed his mana gathering and gestured the two spiritual weapons to calm down. He then lightly squinted his eyes, signaling the formation's spirit to explain more.

The formation's spirit also noticed the positive response of the mighty person, giving off a dangerous feeling outside, and did not dare to delay.

"The site here was the inheritance customized for the descendant with the Hale family bloodline. Even though this did not pass the trial, he will not be in grave danger that could endanger his life." The formation's spirit quickly continued.

Nathan looked deeply into the formation as if gazing directly at the formation's spirit before slightly showing his disagreement, "The risk of the formation test seemed to contrast what you said."

He was a person who had studied the subject of formation intensely for many years and deeply understood its difficulty. 

In this case, how could he fail to perceive the threat to his disciple if he had made a mistake when passing through the formation to get to the platform?

"This... In fact, it was not as dangerous as it seemed. As long as someone was alive in my formation, I had ways to heal them back to normal. Moreover, if the descendant of the Hale family really dies because of me, I will not have a good end either." The formation's spirit replied with reservation.

When replying to Nathan, the formation's spirit also felt aggrieved that she suffered unjustly; she was only doing her task according to the instruction of the ancestor of the Hale family, her master. 

If Nathan wanted to blame someone, it should be that Hale bastard of a master's fault, not hers!

Nathan was unaware of the feeling of a particular formation's spirit; however, her words greatly interested him, signifying the new formation knowledge that he had never known.

 

"How can I know what you said was true unless you prove it to me." Nathan pretended to be indifferent and said seriously, but a hint of sparkle still flashed in his eyes.

At this point, he more or less believed the words of the formation's spirit. He thought about it and found it unreasonable for the person who built this place to leave such a big loophole and harm his descendants after so much preparation for passing the inheritance. 

Since Nathan knew Theodore was safe, he gradually shifted his focus to learning more about the formation. Despite studying for years, he still believed that knowledge was endless, and there was still a lot he did not know.

The formation's spirit failed to notice the anticipation in Nathan's eyes and was contented that even someone as strong as Nathan failed to perceive her hidden parts.

She snorted and replied with a slightly proud tone, "My master used a special technique to hide the mana path and cover up some part of my formation, making others fail to see the restriction and the important components. It was so powerful that you could not sense it."

Nathan listened to the explanation of the formation's spirit and fell into deep thought.

He did not doubt that a formation could have many components, especially a complicated one composed of overlapping smaller and less complex formations.

What attracted him was the hidden method; it could even escape his perception. It must be an extraordinarily marvelous method.

Moreover, the formation master also impressively covered the hidden function without affecting the major part and made it seem like a complete formation.

Even he got tricked and thought he thoroughly understood all the formation arrangements.

To let the other see only what he wanted the others to see; what a fantastic method.

"Why don't you show me the part you hide to prove yourself?" Nathan responded with a more amiable tone of coaxing a child; even his face became less detached.

"No way; why should I tell you my secret?" Although the formation's spirit was somewhat ignorant and had little contact with other people other than her master. She still had the basic awareness.

How old did that person think she was? Did he think she was easy to trick?

"Oh... so you lied to me? That's why you are afraid to show the evidence." Nathan provoked back to see the reaction of the formation's spirit.

"I did not, but you wanted to take advantage of me!" The formation's spirit retorted back angrily.

Nathan chuckled as he argued back and forth with the formation's spirit. 

He changed from his previously quiet self when it came to the topic that he was obsessed with. While doing so, he also took the time to investigate the formation more, hoping to find something.

The two spiritual weapons, the Impending Doom and the Misty Blade, turned to each other with a puzzled looks and chose to remain quiet.

...

The formation's spirit did not know how long she had argued with this annoying person. As the conversation heated, she stopped and quickly glanced at Theodore's figure.

This child was waking up.

This chapter focuses on a new character, the formation spirit. To be honest, I almost forgot the story of the reality part after writing the trial for so long. Fortunately, I finished the chapter in time.

Thank you very much for your reading. Have a nice day.
