After confirming the nodes and the array of inscriptions, Sam is thinking on how to proceed further.
He doesn’t want to damage the teorite sand. After trying many things, Sam decided to try sothing on the inscription array.
This is the most sensitive area of the formation. It is responsible for varying the energy flow an activating the formations. If by any chance, the energy flow of this array is ssed up and the energy ran chaotic, then the whole formation will create a large energy blast which will not only give backlash to Sam, but also destroy the teorite sand.
But that is only loop hole Sam could find in the whole formation. The rest of the formation is not even showing a small opening.
He started using the observation ability on the inscription array so that he could get a hang of the energy flow.
But the array is too big and too many inscriptions are used to form that array to study it quickly.
For the next two days, Sam just stayed there and studied the inscription array, there are a bunch of papers that are crumbled all around him.
He is trying his best to understand and decrypt the inscription array so that he could find an opening. Only after these two days, he finally had a change of expression.
He seed to have found sothing within. He looked at the formation and couldn’t help but feel a great respect to the person who created this formation. There is no way a normal formation master who follows orthodox thods would be able to create sothing like.
This is sothing that could only be created by soone who is extrely crazy and has so twisted nature to his head. That’s what he thought of it and he wants to et that guy. After all, Sam must say that he himself is a bit twisted beyond repair.
He slowly started spreading his spiritual energy throughout the inscription array and used his observation ability.
As the concentration increased, he focused on a small runic symbol which is in the middle of a large number of runes that are stacked on one another.
This is the thing he found after so much research in these two days. This single rune which seed to be the part of a large set of runes, but was actually isolated is the key to the array. Of course, not the only key though. One of the keys and the other keys are extrely similar to this.
This is the only rune which has a ti period in which there would be no energy flow through it. Because, this is the single rune which is used as bridge between two different and smaller arrays.
Simply put, this is the only rune he could destroy without facing any backlash and that too in a certain period of ti which is an extrely short interval.
Sam sat there in a squatted position for more than an hour and only after that did, he has small fluctuation, his hand moved and the rune which was completely enveloped with his energy a few seconds ago, was completely gone.
At this mont, the formation is using a combination of one, three and four, but all of a sudden, the fourth one stopped glowing.
He moved to another direction and started using the sa process. After another hour, he was able to destroy another rune.
Due to this new experience it beca hard for him to finish the rune, he is confident that if he could get a hang of it, he would definitely finish it faster.
He moved to the third point and did the sa and then the fourth point.
It took four hours to destroy a formation without any form energy backlash or any other form of the damage. But he is sure that destroying it with brute force might take even more ti.
As for the initial two days, he could say that it is a form of investnt.
He collected all the black teorite sand and emptied the whole pit.
After doing so, he ca out of the formation and as he was about to board the harbinger and go away, he saw sothing that surprised him. The formation is completely closing back. The formation which Sam tried so hard to destroy was recovering slowly.
He was surprised because, he didn’t see any signs of recovering when he is collecting the teorite sand at all. This is sothing that he didn’t expect. But he didn’t think too much of it and moved to find the next target.
After another half-an-hour of travel, he finally reached the next destination and this is also Black teorite sand, he didn’t feel disappointed though. As long as it is teorite sand it is great.
He started working on the formation, this ti, he didn’t need the two days to study it. All he had to do is find the four runes, but provided that the formation is similar to the previous ones.
After examining, he heaved a sigh of relief. The Inscription pattern is sa. Even though the formation types and the combinations, variations all of them changed, but the working of the inscription array remained the sa and it is still the four of them.
Sam wanted to see if he could find a way to deal with the four runes faster, but decided otherwise. There would only be a single interval for one hour and the interval is only for only a minute. If he tried to deal with the four of them at the sa ti and failed he would be in a deep shit.
So, he decided to spend those four hours, even though it will delay the process.
But this ti, he didn’t just stay idle, instead he let out the beasts. Yanwu, Sky, Raiju and the Mouse. As for Mia, she is still consolidating the cultivation.
The four beasts ran in four different directions. He wanted to see if he could catch up to the next formation within the gap of one hour and deal with it.
After that, he just sat there and waited for fifteen minutes to get the interval and dealt with one of the runes.
From this point there is one hour for the next interval. He stayed there and waited for the beasts to co back and after another fifteen minutes, Raiju is the first one to co back.
He has the nearest formation of all, Sam decided to go there and on the Harbinger the journey was cut down to the five minutes at full speed.
When they reached the destination, Sam is ecstatic because, the formation is just entering the stage of that ti interval. This is the best-case scenario.
He dealt with this and went back to the first formation. He waited for the remaining beasts and by the ti they ca back it is already forty five minutes and there is only a fifteen minutes break for the next interval, so it is not advisable to go for the next one.
So, he waited there and dealt with this formation and once again went to the formation spotted by Raiju.
He ca back and waited.
So, for this period of the four hours and a few minutes, he was able to deal with two formations. One of them happened to be the Gray teorite sand.
After collecting them, he went towards the formation Yanwu spotted. The formation spotted by him and the formation spotted by Sky are both near each other. Sam could deal with them both together, just like how he did with the previous two. This ti, both of them are silver teorite sand.
Another four hours passed.
It is already getting dark by this ti.
Sam went to the formation Shadow mouse spotted and once again sent the beasts in different directions from that spot. But to his surprise, there is only one formation in that area. That is because, this place happened to be near the border of the island.
He decided that he would deal with the two of them. One of them is silver and another one is grey.
After dealing with them, Sam didn’t proceed further imdiately, instead he decided to take so rest. The continuous use of observation ability and running around made him accumulate so ntal fatigue. His ntality is still a bit sensitive after all the stress he has been on for the past few days.
He has to be careful of it, anyway he has a lot of ti to deal with them and his speed is fast enough. The only complain Sam has is that the quantity of teorite sand inside a single formation is a bit small.
If compared to the cubes of teorite sand he obtained from the Black water, there are three cubes of teorite sand in each formation. He has to say that the Black water and the other organization did a great job considering that they are able to obtain so many cubes of teorite sand. After all, they are able to current tens of these boxes.
Sam didn’t think further and rested for a few hours until dawn.
