Hei Gou looked at Xue Wei puzzledly, but he did not say anything. Instead, he gathered Qi within his palm and struck it directly into the barrier.

A boom resounded in the surrounding area, and the barrier shook drastically. While it did not dissipate, the glimmer of the barrier was much less than before and much easier to see through. Clearly, the attack had caused severe damage, and Hei Gou had not even used a martial art skill, all he did was gather Qi in his palm and strike it.

Frowning, Xue Wei looked at the formation, and Hei Gou tried attacking with one more palm attack. The formation instantly shattered, and the stones and ores used turned dull as the energy within had been used up trying to maintain the formation.

Xue Wei sighed as he felt the pain in his heart for wasting so many precious materials, but he began creating the same formation again.

"Try now," he said, and this time the formation lasted four strikes from Hei Gou before it collapsed.

Like this, Xue Wei and Hei Gou spent the entire day creating and destroying formations. As time went on, Xue Wei became increasingly proficient in creating them, and soon it took Hei Gou a lot of effort to destroy them.

In the end, he was actually unable to destroy the formation even when using his innate skills that had the most power.

But even so, Xue Wei called out Bai Tianyi, Lin Xiao, and Luoluo, and had them attacking the formation as well.

It was not before early in the following morning that he was able to create a formation barrier that he was satisfied with.

While they had been creating and destroying the formations, many had observed them with shock and complete disbelief. Everyone knew that formations were incredibly hard to understand and create, not to mention they were costly due to the ores and essence stones needed. Still, Xue Wei had destroyed so many valuable ores time and time again.

It looked like he had no care about the price he paid. While it seemed careless to everyone who was present, Xue Wei and his friends knew the pain that Xue Wei was feeling from using up all those precious materials.

But he was also aware that to improve his performance in the art of formations, he needed to invest some materials.

Fortunately, he had found an essence stone vein back in the Thunder Twilight Zone, and he had managed to get many top-grade essence stones.

These essence stones were initially planned to be used as cultivation resources, but there were so many that even if they were going to use a handful a day while cultivating, they would not run out for thousands of years.

As such, it did not matter if they used up half of them on testing formations. These formations could help them protect them; they were also able to make illusion formations, and even formations that could attack their enemies.

Xue Wei set up the barrier that he had spent a whole day and night learning how to create, and then he went to his room. Hei Gou and the others did the same, all of them ready to cultivate.

Xue Wei did not begin cultivating right away. Instead, he found various herbs from his storage treasures alongside a mortar and pestle, after which he began crushing the herbs, releasing their efficiency, and imbued the liquid with his spiritual energy.

Then he found a large stack of parchment papers, after which he also took out a quill.

After gathering all the things, and preparing the ink, Xue Wei began drawing some patterns on the parchment. The pattern he was making was a Space Lock Inscription.

It used the very rare element of space, and as the name implied, it made it impossible for things to move within. If someone locked space, every attack, and every person, would become frozen. Only the person who used the Space Lock Inscription would be able to move.

This attack was quite peculiar. If the opponent was stronger than the creator of the inscription, then the time that the space lock worked would be shorter. The stronger the opponent, the shorter the duration.

The Space Lock Inscription was able to lock down many people at once, but the more people it locked down, the inscription would stay active for a shorter time.

Even so, the Space Lock Inscription was immensely essential and could save a life, so Xue Wei decided to make this inscription.

The main ingredient was a herb with a space element; an herb called Space Tear.

This herb was also obtained in the Thunder Twilight Zone, and Xue Wei had quite a few of them, so he was not worried too much about being able to create enough Space Lock Inscriptions.

Like this, a few days went by. Xue Wei was fully focused on creating inscriptions, and every inscription he made resulted in his spiritual energy increasing in strength.

At the same time, his friends were immersed in cultivation, but Hei Gou came to Xue Wei's side, his expression looking slightly forlorn.

"I am interested in learning a profession," Hei Gou finally said after sitting still for some time, wondering if he should speak. "Lin Xiao is a beast tamer, a Diviner. Bai Tianyi is a specialist in formations and inscriptions. You are the same, but also an alchemist. It is only Luoluo and myself who do not have a profession, and I need one right now."

"Oh?" Xue Wei was puzzled. "What profession do you need?"

"I need to become an armament master. My claws need to be upgraded, but we have no armament masters in our team, and I thought that I would like to become one."
