Chapter 941: Chapter 41: Instant Wealth! Divine Martial Recruit Training Camp Opens (Part 4)
Continuing forward not far, the Divine Martial Army Tokens on Wang Shouzhe and the others began to emit a faint light.
Several beams of light soared and quickly disappeared into the "mountains" ahead.
The next moment, light and shadow shifted ahead, and the formation camouflage at the base of the "mountains" slowly dissipated, revealing a majestic silver-gray metal door.
The door was painted with profound green patterns using unknown paints, with energy flowing through them, exuding some kind of invisible aura as if possessing a special power.
At the center of the door, the protruding metal relief was in the shape of a dragon’s head, with antlers and long whiskers, looking awe-inspiring.
Noticing the approach of Wang Shouzhe and the others, the golden eyes inlaid with an unknown crystal on the metal relief flickered a few times before they slowly lit up.
"The Divine Martial Army is indeed the core force of the Divine Martial Dynasty, with even an ordinary training camp under its command able to maintain basic operations for a hundred thousand years without maintenance, albeit slightly damaged. The Array Master who set this formation back then must have been incredibly strong."
Ji Wuchen’s figure emerged amidst the "Time" floating beside Wang Anye, observing this scene with endless admiration.
Among those present, he was the most skilled in formations. Naturally, he had deeper insights into the formation standards displayed by this military camp compared to others.
Back when he wanted to leave a legacy, he set up a formation with all his might and maintained it with his Divine Soul form from time to time. But after a mere few thousand years, it started to deteriorate.
Yet here, it has lasted a total of a hundred thousand years...
In comparison, the level difference is as vast as the sky and the earth.
The reason why Wang Shouzhe insisted on bringing his great-grandson Wang Anye, even at the expense of neglecting his studies, was mainly because he valued the array ability of the Artifact Spirit Ji Wuchen. After all, an Array Master in the late Divine Power Realm is rare in the entire Daqian.
"Elder Ji." Wang Shouzhe was always courteous to Ji Wuchen, "I wonder if this formation can be broken?"
"This..." Ji Wuchen said with slight embarrassment, "The gap between me and the creator of this formation is like that between Lua Xiaoxiao and me, as vast as the difference between heaven and earth."
"..." Wang Shouzhe was speechless. Did my cousin Lua Xiaoxiao offend you? After all, she’s currently the top-ranked Array Master in Changning Guard and an outstanding Array Master among the Six Southern Guards.
"However, given that this formation hasn’t been maintained for a hundred thousand years," Ji Wuchen carefully observed the surrounding environment and mused, "If I’m given enough time to slowly unravel it, it still might be feasible to break it. If it doesn’t work out, we might just have to let Anye have a try."
"That’s true; it’s quite reassuring to have Anye around." Wang Shouzhe agreed with this sentiment.
Wang Anye widened his innocent eyes. Great-grandfather and Master, how could you both be so casually childish? My attainments in formations haven’t even reached the doorway, yet you want me to unravel a hundred-thousand-year-old grand formation?
Is he, at such a young age, to bear such a heavy responsibility?
Just as everyone was discussing how to break the formation.
Suddenly, a cold female voice emerged from the dragon-head-shaped metal relief: "Warning, warning, unknown intruders, please desist from any attempts to maliciously breach the formation. Otherwise, the Divine Martial Army guardians have the right to arrest or expel you."
"Just as expected, there is indeed an Artifact Spirit, and it’s still alive." Wang Shouzhe let out a slight breath of relief. According to normal logic, if even a recruitment point of the Divine Martial Dynasty had an Artifact Spirit, Blood Nest had a base with an Artifact Spirit; how could the grand military training point of the Divine Martial Dynasty not have an Artifact Spirit in charge?
What slightly concerned Wang Shouzhe was that, in a hundred thousand years, anything could happen, and it wasn’t impossible for the Artifact Spirit to perish.
"You’re the one who’s dead." The cold female voice within contained a hint of anger, "Even if I’m just an Artifact Spirit, I have my dignity. Insulting an Artifact Spirit in the military camp is liable to punishment. This is the Divine Martial Army Recruit Training Camp No. 5. Strangers, be gone at once."
This Artifact Spirit is indeed of a higher level, much more formidable than the one at the recruitment point.
"Artifact Spirit, we are not strangers." Wang Shouzhe took out the Elite Soldier Token, "We are here to participate in the Divine Martial Army’s training."
"Elite Soldier Token?" The Artifact Spirit muttered something and then projected a light beam that enveloped the token. "Beep, soul wave matched to the token, this token is verified as a legitimate reserve elite soldier token issued by the Artifact Spirit of [Thirty-seventh Recruitment Point], holder’s name [Wang Shouzhe], gender [Male], age [26], cultivation [Peak Qi Refining Realm], contribution points [0]."
"Wait, how come your cultivation reached the Celestial Human Realm?" the Artifact Spirit questioned.
"Delayed a bit on the way... arrived a bit late," Wang Shouzhe replied.
"How long was the delay?" The Artifact Spirit’s voice sounded a bit suspicious, "I hope you answer honestly, or else I have the authority to deny your entry into the recruit training camp."
"Delayed sixty-four years..." Wang Shouzhe honestly answered.
"..." The Artifact Spirit fell silent for a moment before saying, "According to the training camp regulations, if there’s no special circumstance, a delay of three years is considered an automatic waiver, and the legal responsibility of a deserter will be pursued."
"There were, of course, special circumstances," Wang Shouzhe retorted grumpily, "Although the journey here was merely over ten thousand miles, there were countless fierce beasts along the way, including not a few Tier Five and Six, and even a Tier Seven Great Demon blocking the path. Fighting our way through, sixty-four years feels short."
