Chapter 1431 – Perhaps Another Day
Rean didn’t waste time and went straight to the main topic, asking him, “We got information that brother Hui has some Molten Divine Rock Flowers remaining. Would you be willing to sell them to us?”
Hui was surprised to hear that, especially since he wanted to ask Rean something related to that point. “Such a coincidence. When I heard that another Golden Middle-level Formation Master had arrived, I thought about showing you the formation that uses this flower.”
Rean narrowed his eyes in response, telling him, “But if I do that and it works, wouldn’t you keep the Molten Divine Rock Flowers instead?”
Hui had to admit Rean was right. “In that case, how about this? I have three Molten Divine Rock Flowers with me. If this friend helps me complete the formation, I’ll only use one flower and give the other two to you for free. That shouldn’t be a bad deal, right?”
Rean looked at Roan, who nodded in agreement. “Alright, you’ve got yourself a deal. However, if I can’t fix the formation, you have to sell them to me nonetheless.”
Hui agreed with that. “Very well. Come with me. My project is still in my room even though I stopped it for a while.” Along the way, Hui explained to Rean his plans. “This is a formation called the Blazing Formation, which I’m creating for the Blacksmith Guild. It seems like the head of the Blacksmith Guild in our city saw this formation working when he visited another continent. It seems to be a formation made for the instant melting of materials without the properties of the metals being greatly destroyed.”
Rean could already imagine how it worked. His Soul Gem Electric Furnace didn’t need the help of any formations as it was unmatched in both heat control and speed. Nevertheless, Rean understood that such a formation would be very good for high-level blacksmiths. “The Molten Divine Rock Flower is a material filled to the brim with Fire Element, so I guess you were trying to use it as the core of the formation, correct?”
Hui nodded, replying, “That’s precisely the case. Unfortunately, the nature of the flower is too oppressive. The formation can’t control the power generated by it, making it impossible to regulate the furnace’s heat. I tried several arrangements of regulation runes, but none worked so far.”
Sometime later, they finally arrived at the room where Hui worked on the formation. From there on, Rean and Hui spent several hours discussing and trying new things until finally, Rean understood where the problem was. “Sure enough, mainstream regulation runes won’t work. It’s too much for them to bear. If you want to fix it, we’ll need to use Heat Striking Runes.”
“Heat Striking Runes?” Hui was puzzled with Rean’s choice. “But those runes are used in Fire-based slaughter formations. They basically release and conduct Fire Element as fast as possible in order to destroy the target.”
Rean didn’t deny that, telling him, “That’s correct. However, I have a way of stacking the Heat Striking Runes with the regulation runes. We will use one to support the flower’s power while the other will regulate its output. If all goes well, we should be able to use this formation in the furnace and have quite a high degree of control over the heat.”
Hui, obviously, didn’t mind giving it a shot. “Alright. I’ll help with what I can. Let’s start.”
And just like that, Rean and Hui spent a few more hours on the Blazing Formation. At first, their attempts didn’t work that well. However, they didn’t give up. That’s because they got a small level of control out of it, albeit too low to be usable. With each try, the control over the flower’s power increased, making it easier and easier to use it correctly.
Eventually, Rean and Hui reached a level where they could keep around 97 to 98% of the original heat control while using the flower’s power. It wasn’t as good as Rean’s Electrical Furnace, but it was definitely a nice piece of equipment. “Great! To think that you could really stack Regulation Runes with Heat Striking Runes. That arrangement has definitely opened my eyes for sure.”
Rean smiled, saying, “Brother Hui’s talent for formation was what helped us complete this formation this quickly. I’m sure the Blacksmith Guild’s head will be delighted with the result. Perhaps it’s even better than the furnace he saw outside.” Rean, of course, didn’t use any Circuitry Runes since this formation had to be replicated by Hui alone.
“Hmph! If he still dares to complain, then I want to see where he’ll find something better than this.” Although Hui said that, he was very excited about the result. “Oh, right! These are the remaining two Molten Rock Flowers I told you about.” He then passed the flowers to Rean, who confirmed they were the real deal.
“Thank you, brother Hui.” Rean was happy to get his hands on two flowers this fast. “If you don’t mind, my brother and I have a few more things to do.”
Hui didn’t mind. “Sure thing. By the way, if brother Rean is willing, I have quite a few other projects I’m also working on. You’re more than welcome to take part in them.”
“Perhaps another day.” Since Rean didn’t want to waste time, he politely refused.
With that, Rean and Roan left the Formation Guild while Hui went to see the Formation Guild’s head. “Jume, do you know from where that Formation Guild badge comes from?”
Jume was the name of the Formation Guild’s head. Hui was curious about Rean’s badge, so he used his Divine Energy to project an image similar to it. Jume took a look at it for a moment and was surprised. “Wow… this guy came from quite far away, didn’t he? That’s a Formation Guild badge from the Huring Continent. You need to pass through three continents just to get there.”
“That far?!” Hui was shocked to hear that. “I’m surprised they got here with that cultivation of theirs. Should we inform them about it?”
Jume shook his head in response. “Better not. Since they’re not causing any trouble, I would rather not touch on this topic.”
Hui nodded after that.. “Very well.”
