After leaving the collapsed mountain, River Styx flew all the way to the teleportation formation in Hao Tian's memory. That teleportation formation was close to the center of the lower level of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the power of laws were much richer than other places. Setting up a super Spirit-gathering Formation there would naturally be great benefits for River Styx's cultivation.
Of course, River Styx naturally had his own reasons for going to that teleportation formation. Back then, Hao Tian had entered the Battlefield of Gods and Demons through that teleportation formation. In the middle level, there were detailed records of the area near the other end of the teleportation formation. Although time had passed and things had changed, there were still traces to follow. Otherwise, he could only rely on himself to explore from the beginning.
Along the way, River Styx did not fly quickly. Moreover, wherever he passed, the Ferocious Beasts of Chaos were killed by him. The Origin of Chaos that he had collected was naturally an extremely large amount. Now, the Origin of Chaos of the Ferocious Beasts of Chaos of the Grand Luo Realm was becoming less and less effective for River Styx's cultivation. Only the Origin of Chaos of the Ferocious Beasts of Chaos that were close to the Half-step to Creation Realm were more effective for him.
River Styx was not a bloodthirsty person. He naturally had his uses for collecting so much Origin of Chaos that was not very helpful for his cultivation. Now that the God-slaying Spear, the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth, and the body of the evil corpse had begun to transform into Chaos Lingbao, besides constantly refining Chaos Restrictions, they naturally needed a large amount of Origin of Chaos to nourish their own innate Origins to transform into Origin of Chaos.
Without a large amount of Origin of Chaos for them to absorb, it would take a long time for their innate Origins to transform into Origin of Chaos. Even if the transformation was successful, their Origin of Chaos would not be strong enough. At that time, it might affect the power of these Chaos Lingbao. Since the Battlefield of Gods and Demons did not lack Origin of Chaos, it was better to waste some than to affect the power of the magic treasures.
Other than the Ferocious Beasts of Chaos, all the treasures of heaven and earth found along the way had been plundered clean by River Styx. For this reason, River Styx had taken many detours, but there was always a reward. The precious materials and elixirs that he had collected were enough for River Styx to use for a period of time, whether for refining weapons, refining pills, or directly absorbing them.
Now that he had come to the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, he could be in danger at any time. Even though River Styx's strength was now enough to run amok in the lower levels of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, he did not let down his guard. It should be known that people in the middle levels could return to the lower levels. Even if their cultivation exceeded the Creation realm, they would still be at the Half-step to Creation realm. However, the realm was still there, and the strength that a Half-step to Creation realm could exert was not something that an ordinary Half-step to Creation realm could compare with.
Although the probability of this happening was not high, River Styx could be prepared in case he encountered it. He naturally had his own plans for collecting so many materials and elixirs. The elixirs were nothing. River Styx was not very good at refining elixirs, so even if he collected them, he would absorb most of them directly. Although it was a little wasteful, it also saved him the time to study and refine elixirs.
However, the materials for refining weapons were different. They were what River Styx needed the most. Although the God-killing Spear, the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth, and the Red Lotus of Hellfire had begun to transform in the direction of Chaos Lingbao, and as long as the Innate Restriction and Innate Origin completely transformed into Chaos Restriction and Innate Origin, they would be able to advance to Chaos Lingbao. However, in River Styx's opinion, this kind of advancement was still flawed.
The God-killing Spear, the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth, and the Red Lotus of Hellfire were all split from the Ultimate Treasure of Chaos, the Green Lotus of Creation. Their quality was also top among the Ultimate Treasures of Creation, but if they wanted to advance to Chaos Lingbao, their own materials were slightly insufficient. The best way was to integrate some Chaos-level refining materials into them and improve their quality. Only then could they achieve a perfect advancement.
However, it was not easy to integrate some Chaos-level refining materials into them. After all, each material had its own merits and characteristics. Not all materials could be compatible. River Styx still had to choose some Chaos-level refining materials that were compatible with their attributes. Only then could he improve their quality. Otherwise, if their attributes clashed, it was very likely that the advancement would fail or even be destroyed.
Of course, apart from this, River Styx naturally had other plans. River Styx was not proficient in alchemy, smithing, and formations. However, River Styx was proficient in smithing and formations. Now that he could already refine Chaos Lingbao with his smithing skills, this was of great help to River Styx. Although it was not a foreign object, a powerful Chaos Lingbao would be of great help to his enemies.
And now, River Styx's smithing skills had reached a new height, but his formations skills were still at the Great Desolation stage. Among the Four Great Formations of the Great Desolation, the Twelve Divine Beings Killing Formation, the Great Zhouxing Formation, and the True Martial Origin Formation were mastered the earliest. As for the Tongtian Sect Master's Immortal-slaying Sword Formation, River Styx had already seen the essence of it when he repaired it. As long as he was willing, he could imitate the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation at any time.
However, although the Four Great Formations were powerful, their usefulness decreased as one's cultivation level increased. Now, they might still be useful in the lower levels of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, but their usefulness would be limited in the middle levels of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons. The Four Great Formations might be very powerful in the Grand Luo Realm, but they were probably not enough in the Creation Realm. After all, the levels were different.
If he wanted them to continue to be useful, he had to make improvements. When River Styx saw the Zhouxing Formation hidden in the Celestial Court, he had the idea of improving it. Even if the Zhouxing Formation mastered by River Styx was unleashed to the maximum, it would only have the power of a Grand Luo Intermediate Stage expert at most.
However, the Zhouxing Formation hidden in the Celestial Court was different. Previously, when River Styx integrated the Celestial Court into the Qian Kun World, he had already seen the power of the improved Zhouxing Formation. At that time, the Zhouxing Banner rose from the Celestial Court and connected to the Zhouxing of the Qian Kun World. The Zhouxing Banner was already able to unleash the power of a Grand Luo Advanced Stage expert. If it was unleashed without regard for the consequences, it could still unleash the attack of a Grand Luo Peak Stage expert.
The Zhouxing Formation set up in the Celestial Court had obviously been improved by the Eighth Epoch, Hao Tian. The operation of the Formation was far more mysterious than the Zhouxing Formation mastered by River Styx. In addition, the materials used to refine the Zhouxing Banner were not ordinary, so the power of the Formation naturally far exceeded that of an ordinary Zhouxing Formation.
However, this was not enough, far from enough. Even if the Zhouxing Formation could unleash the power of a Grand Luo Peak Stage expert, so what? River Styx could break it with a flip of his hand. In that case, what was the use of it? In the middle of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, experts of the Creation Realm could be found everywhere. What use did River Styx have for the Formation with the power of a Grand Luo Peak Stage expert? It probably could not even withstand a casual blow from him.
What River Styx needed was a powerful Formation with the power of a Creation Realm expert. Currently, the Four Wonder Formations were far from enough. Even if there were Formations that could unleash the power of a Creation Realm expert, River Styx could not use them. For example, the Formation of Twelve Zu Wu needed to be set up by the Twelve Zu Wu. If the Twelve Zu Wu who set up the Formation had the strength of a Half-Step to the Creation Realm expert, the Real Body of Pangu that was summoned would probably be able to unleash the power of a Creation Realm expert.
However, this was of no use to River Styx. Even if River Styx could create another Twelve Zu Wu, without the bloodline of the Twelve Zu Wu, the power that the Formation of Twelve Zu Wu could unleash would be extremely limited. It might even reveal a flaw. Even if he summoned the Real Body of the fake Pangu, the power that it could unleash would be extremely limited. Moreover, after one use, the Twelve Zu Wu would completely collapse.
Using a Formation that could only be used once would yield little profit and cost a lot of money. River Styx would not make such a loss-making deal. Naturally, the Formation of True Martial Origin could also unleash the power of a Creation Realm expert, but it required many Daluo Realm experts to set up the Formation. However, River Styx had not broken through to the Creation Realm, and his most unique Blood God Doppelganger was only at the peak of Quasi-saint. When used to set up the Formation, its power was not even comparable to Mu Sen's.
However, when River Styx broke through to the Creation Realm, his forty-nine Blood God Doppelganger would also break through to the Origin Daluo Realm, and the Blood God's Doppelganger would also break through to the Quasi-saint Realm. At that time, with the Blood God Doppelganger and the Blood God's Doppelganger working together with Mu Sen to set up the Formation of True Martial Origin, its power would naturally be comparable to that of a Creation Realm expert. However, its weakness was also obvious.
The Formation of True Martial Origin was a Formation that River Styx had comprehended when he was at the initial stage of Daluo Realm. Although it was very abstruse, River Styx could see that there were still flaws in the Formation. Since there were flaws, it was naturally possible to break the Formation. In this way, the role of the Formation of True Martial Origin was obvious.
As for the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation, as long as a set of Chaotic Lingbao level Four Immortal-slaying Swords and Formation Map were refined, and the user had the strength of a Creation Realm expert, its power would naturally not be weak. If the Formation Map could be refined to be more abstruse and compatible with the Great Way of the Sword, its power would naturally multiply. However, River Styx did not know much about the Way of the Sword, and he preferred to break everything with brute force.
As for the Zhouxing Formation, although it had been improved by Haotian in the Eighth Era, its power still did not reach the level that River Styx expected, so it naturally had to be improved. Moreover, the Zhouxing Banner also needed to be refined. When River Styx saw the set of Zhouxing Banner hidden in the Celestial Court, the corners of his mouth twitched. Haotian in the Eighth Era had wasted so many good materials to refine such a set of Zhouxing Banner. Naturally, River Styx could not bear to see it and had to refine it.
River Styx and the Three Separations could each comprehend and improve the Formation of True Martial Origin. River Styx mainly cultivated his physical body and comprehended the Twelve Divine Beings Killing Formation. Qiankun Taoist mastered the Zhouxing World of Heaven and Earth and comprehended the Zhouxing Formation. Red Lotus Taoist held the Yuantu and Avici Swords and comprehended the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation. Mu Sen mastered the word 'Wu' and was naturally most suitable for comprehending the Formation of True Martial Origin. The four of them each held one Formation. If they could successfully improve the Formation, they could protect themselves with the power of the Formation even if they were separated in the future.
