Chapter 502: Celestial Designer (2/2)
”It isn't!” Zhang Xuan shook his head
If it was a formation, he would have surely felt a disturbance in the spiritual energy in the air But there clearly was none
”The greatest fear of the soul oracles aren't hu Ants, and formations are ineffective on those creatures Thus, it is unlikely for a soul oracle to incorporate a formation into their defensive mechanisms If I'm not mistaken, these are mechanical traps!”
After aXuan had finished his analysis
The Soul Devouring Ants were the nemeses of soul oracles, so naturally, they had to prepare so Ants were capable of consuy contained within a formation and forcefully halt it Thus, mechanical traps were preferred as to forreement
”But if those are all mechanical traps, this will prove to be troublesome None of us here are adept in this field If only we had a celestial designer here, we'd be really spared a lot of trouble!” Hall Master Sai frowned
”Celestial designer?” Sun Qiang and the others looked over
Zhang Xuan had never mentioned such an occupation so they had never heard of it
”Indeed Celestial designer, also known as master mechanic, is an occupation of the Lower Nine Paths They are skilled in designing these ht seem humble on the surface, they usually incorporate sword qi and battle techniques that could overpower even experts when they are activated”
Hall Master Sai explained, ”This occupation also has their own organization, the Celestial Designer Institute They specialize in designing the world's most exquisite weapon and traps However I've only read about this occupation in books There isn't a branch in the Myriad Kingdom Alliance, and it's said that only an empire of Huanyu Empire's tier is qualified to build a branch”
”The artifacts designed by celestial designers are extremely complex and exquisite It would indeed be difficult to bypass these traps without understanding the logic behind the Xuan nodded his head as a frown slowly appeared on his forehead
He had seen the coner Mechanical Container himself If not for the Library of Heaven's Path, it would be ile box could be designed so intricately If a person of that occupation had assisted with the design of the traps in this passageway, the dangers that lurked in this passageould be uniner had assisted with the design of the traps in this passageway, the dangers that lurked in this passageould be uni Xuan was deep in thought, he heard the sound of a sharp knife tearing through flesh Lifting his gaze, he saw Luo Zhu hurriedly retreating with a reddened face His ar profusely
”Are you alright?”
Jin Conghai and the others hurried forward to help hiht!” Luo Zhu shook his head ”The traps in this passageway seem to have become even more complicated than before”
”Evendid you take to reach the end?” Zhang Xuan asked
”It is around three hundred meters The previous ti the puppets and it took et to the other end!”
Luo Zhu frowned, ”However, it seele ti the traps is co Xuan was speechless
To travel three hundred eas indeed difficult
”Indeed But there's no other way around it The sword qi contained within the traps possess the ht of at least a Transcendent Mortal 4-dan pinnacle If one were to accidentally come into contact with it, one will be torn into half in an instant!”
Luo Zhu shook his head
”Transcendent Mortal 4-dan pinnacle sword qi?” The croas astonished
When they saw the puppet being reduced to smithereens previously, they already had an idea that the sword qi emanated in the traps were fearsome Even so, they didn't expect it to be so powerful
Even a Transcendent Mortal 4-dan pinnacle expert would find it difficult to survive after being struck by such powerful sword qi
Not to e the attacks in such a narrow passageway
”Do we really have no other choice other than to advance bit by bit?”
Zhao Feiwu frowned
”That's right! The trap ners are inco If one doesn't know the pattern behind the changes, it'll be difficult to clear the traps” Luo Zhu shook his head
”It won't work even if ere to destroy theXuan frowned
Even forible existence, could be stopped with a kick If they could find the switch to the traps or the center of operation of the system, shouldn't it be possible to shut down the traps?
”Destroy?”
Luo Zhu smiled bitterly, ”How could it be that easy? Just like a water wheel, the artifacts left behind by celestial designers are constantly on the move Even if one had the blueprint on hand, if one doesn't cons could be overcome so easily, it wouldn't be such a feared occupation!”
Mechanical systems and formations were similar in the sense that even if an amateur were to have the blueprint in hand, if they couldn't understand the workings of the system, they would still be unable to decipher it
After all, mechanical systems were built to be continuously on the htest bit of this occupation, one would be unable to get out of it alive, let alone, destroy it
”Indeed This is the reason why celestial designers are feared They are capable of incorporatingtools capable of slaughtering experts easily Furthermore, these artifacts don't need to be powered by spirit stones If I' these traps comes from the waterfall above As such, unlike formations, coic behind the traps, one would never be able to overcoree the flow of spiritual energy to detect the weak points of a formation However y but kinetic energy
Hoere they supposed to decipher these traps?
Hearing the analyses of the duo, the colooether
Seeing that theXuan shook his head and said, ”Even though compasses won't work, it doesn'tthe traps LetXuan seith his palm
