Lu Zheng tore open a spatial passage and returned to the Battle Arena with Zuo Xiuzhen.
Moments later, eleven lights flashed brilliantly before turning into several men.
The men were armed to the teeth with weapons and their Essence revolved around their body at dangerous rates.
After glancing around, the men relaxed before staring at one of them: "Where is he?"
Ethan's face twisted as he urged his methods: "How? He was here only moments ago!"
"What is the matter?" One of the men asked.
"He is already in Yama Battlefield" Ethan didn't dare to face the men.
Another man sneered: "How is that even possible? Do you dare lie to us"
"It is alright, everyone. This Lu Zheng might be a space path martial practitioner" An old looking man said slowly.
When he spoke, the other men calmed and stopped complaining. It was obvious that he had a high status among them.
Ethan suddenly seemed to have seen a truth: "It is true! When we fought him, the space around us was frozen that we could not even move. Lu Zheng is surely a space path martial practitioner!"
"So? Not even Louis can spatial travel from here to Yama Battlefield within moments. That distance is too much" A stalwart man scoffed at Ethan's words. So far, he had disliked the man.
"Brian, it is okay" Louis said. "I might be a space path martial practitioner but I am not adept at spatial travel. To be able the seal the space around twelve Void Passage realm experts, I'm not sure if I can even do that"
"If it is like this, then we can only spread ourselves over the whole Western Plains to catch him. Three of us will stay here at Blacksteel City in case he ever returns while another three will go to Yama Battlefield Ethan, Louis and Brian will move together in case Ethan senses Lu Zheng again. The rest will go to the major resource points around Yama Battlefield. This is the only way we can catch him" The old looking man said after some thought.
"That is good" Brian smiled before sheathing his spear. He was interested in fighting strong opponents and even if he was a Void Passage realm expert, Lu Zheng had already shown himself to be strong.
…..
When Lu Zheng returned to his house, he immediately began inscribing the necessary formations he would need to revive Houyan Meili's soul.
His legs were crossed and his eyes were closed as he sat mid-air. A small stone tablet was held by his hands and a thin needle like light flowed from his finger to the stone tablet.
"Crack~"
The stone tablet suddenly cracked before turning into dust. Lu Zheng opened his eyes and brushed the dust away. A small heap of dust had already formed beneath him.
"This Yin Yang Pentagram Formation is very difficult to inscribe" Lu Zheng shook his head.
He knew thousands of formations in his head and could easily inscribe them. Now, he was trying to inscribe them with the Primordial Spirit Veins.
Even though he was a Grandmaster artificer and he already knew how to inscribe Primordial Spirit Veins, it was a completely different concept when it came to improving the spirit veins of formations he already knew.
"I've used twelve rank one Spirit Grade formation plate artifacts and have failed to inscribe one Yin Yang Pentagram Formation correctly" Lu Zheng muttered. The Yin Yang Pentagram Formation was a gigantic formation that was made up of a spirit vein that looked like a large web of doodles that formed a pentagon.
Inscribing the normal spirit vein took hours and the lines Lu Zheng would draw were many tens of thousands. The thickness and length of each line had to be perfectly accurate and the slightest mistake would cause the entire thing to crumble.
This was why even after refining Immortal Grade artifacts, artificers would not rejoice until they had inscribed the spirit veins. The artifacts were completely useless without their spirit veins.
Lu Zheng controlled his emotions and absorbed streams of soul energy from the Soul Absorbing Gem. After a while, he continued to inscribe the Yin Yang Pentagram Formation in the rank one Spirit Grade formation plate artifacts.
It was only after thirty six attempts that Lu Zheng succeeded. It was also at this time that his wristband began to blink.
It was time for his next match.
