Chapter 1757 - 590: So Yangming True Master Was Preparing for the End!
Chapter 1757: Chapter 590: So Yangming True Master Was Preparing for the End!
"Vast Sand Illusion Realm, for him, it is an opportunity to break through to the Nascent Soul."
"Most of the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Materials he collected earlier were used for refining Miraculous Treasures, possibly preparing for this journey to the Vast Sand Illusion Realm."
"He previously asked the Yiming Ghost Sect for Coagulation Crystal Elixir and now demands Jade Marrow Gold Ganoderma, likely preparing for matters after his passing and paving the way for his children and descendants."
The Heavenly Sword Sect Master thought more and felt it possible.
After all, this Nascent Soul Secret Realm is a place where Nascent Soul Cultivators venture at great risk.
Even though this Yangming True Master is exceptionally powerful, possessing a Third Rank Demon King, it’s as difficult as ascending to heaven to vie for Nascent Soul opportunities within the secret realm.
"If that’s the case, it might be worth reaching out later."
The Heavenly Sword Sect Master pondered internally, then looked at Lan Ruoxue and said, "Lan Junior Sister, this time has been tough on you."
After speaking, he left Cangling Market with Lan Ruoxue to return to the Heavenly Sword Sect.
...
Lu Changsheng was unaware of the Heavenly Sword Sect Master’s speculation.
If he knew about the other party’s assumptions, he would certainly curse, "You’re the one planning after-death arrangements, and your whole family is planning after-death arrangements."
Does Lu Ancestor need to adventure into a secret realm with his system?
After leaving Cangling Market for tens of thousands of miles, Lu Changsheng carefully checked his bodily conditions and magic aura again, ensured there were no issues, and continued riding the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng towards Bi Lake Mountain.
With ten thousand miles remaining on his journey, Lu Changsheng directly activated the Michen Banner to return to Bi Lake Mountain.
"Husband!"
Now, with Ling Zixiao absent, the main array plate of Bi Lake Mountain rested in Lu Miaoyun’s hands.
She sensed this inexplicable fluctuation and immediately realized Lu Changsheng had returned.
"Yun’er."
Lu Changsheng saw his little wife and embraced her in his arms.
After a moment of intimate whispers between the two, Lu Changsheng signaled Meng Xiaochan to come out from the Tianyuan Lotus.
As for his daughter, Lu Mengchan, she continued to sleep.
Because he planned to upgrade his life-bound magic treasure, the Yin Yang Chart, at Bi Lake Mountain, using the Treasure Forging Platform, before heading back to Great Dream Immortal City for alchemy.
In the next half month, Lu Changsheng spent time at Bi Lake Mountain with his wife and children, attended to family matters, and then began upgrading his magical artifacts.
"Whoo whoo whoo——"
In the Refining Hall, as Thunder Gang Dragon Flame was infused, the Earthfire Array activated, and a blazing dark golden fire burned on the Treasure Forging Platform.
"Buzz!"
Lu Changsheng’s thoughts moved, and his life-bound magic treasure, the ’Yin Yang Chart,’ appeared, directly hovering over the Treasure Forging Platform.
As the true fire burned, the Yin Yang Chart radiated brilliant colors, and Lu Changsheng infused the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Materials obtained from Jin Kingdom, along with three spiritual materials traded with the Heavenly Sword Sect, onto the Treasure Forging Platform.
"Divine Machine Artifact Refining Technique!"
Upgrading traditional magical treasures is extremely troublesome.
It requires re-casting the treasure, gradually removing the originally mixed low-level materials, and re-infusing the treasure’s prohibitions.
If the process is carelessly handled, it might even damage the magical treasure.
Therefore, many people who refine magical treasures either start by laying a good foundation or spend various heavenly treasures to slowly nourish and enhance them through magic power.
To nurture a low-quality magical treasure to middle-grade level alone would take at least several decades or a hundred years.
The cultivation technique Lu Changsheng previously obtained, "Divine Mechanism Hundred Refinement Technique," is a top-level tool cultivation technique with numerous secret techniques for refining artifacts.
The Divine Machine Artifact Refining Technique is incredibly exquisite.
As long as the principles of the magical treasure are understood, it can directly replace or condense and upgrade the low-rank materials in the treasure to enhance its grade.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
Under the Divine Machine Artifact Refining Technique, these Heaven and Earth Spiritual Materials circled around the Yin Yang Chart, and then a Seven-Colored Streaming Light Stone transformed into a seven-colored stream of light gradually integrating into the scroll.
Since it was his first time using the Divine Machine Artifact Refining Technique, Lu Changsheng dared not be too hasty and proceeded very slowly.
As time slowly passed, wisps of gray light seeped and overflowed from the Yin Yang Chart.
The seven-colored stream of light formed from the Seven-Colored Streaming Light Stone perfectly fused into the Yin Yang Chart.
In this manner, Lu Changsheng followed the sequence, gradually refining the five spiritual materials that could be upgraded or replaced in his life-bound magical treasure.
After the refinement was complete, Lu Changsheng spent similar materials to condense and enhance previously relatively low-grade materials.
...
Ten days later.
In the Refining Hall.
"Whew!"
Lu Changsheng exhaled with an expression full of tired joy.
The Yin Yang Chart, enveloped in black and white yin-yang creation aura, re-landed in his hand from the Treasure Forging Platform.
Originally, this life-bound magical treasure barely reached superior grade Magical Treasure level!
But after his re-casting and upgrading, it’s just half a step away from advancing to top-grade Magical Treasure!
The reason it hasn’t been upgraded to a top-grade magical treasure is not due to a lack of materials, but rather because it suits his current cultivation level better.
If it were upgraded to a top-grade magical treasure, it would actually be less appealing.
"This Divine Machine Artifact Refining Technique is truly extraordinary. The hardest part of upgrading a magical treasure to a spiritual treasure is nurturing the treasure’s spirit and cultivating an Artifact Spirit!"
"Under normal circumstances, it would take at least a hundred years to nurture enough spirit."
"But with this Divine Machine Artifact Refining Technique, as long as sufficient spiritual materials are used, one can cultivate the spirit and Artifact Spirit in the shortest time possible!"
Lu Changsheng experienced the effects of the Divine Mechanism Hundred Refinement Technique and deeply realized the impact of this talisman making and artifact refining legacy.
Given the speed of his entire cultivation process, the cultivation of magical treasures simply couldn’t keep pace.
It’s possible that by the time he reached the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, the magical treasure would just barely have upgraded to a spiritual treasure.
But with the Divine Machine Artifact Refining Technique, this problem is easily solved.
After putting away his Yin Yang Chart, Lu Changsheng left the Refining Hall and returned to the Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven to rest.
Such artifact refining, for him, was quite consuming.
...
After resting for several days, feeling rejuvenated, Lu Changsheng went to Qingyun Sect to visit Xiao Xiyue.
Lately, the latter had been in closed-door cultivation.
After such a long period of cultivation, Xiao Xiyue had only just begun to master the divine skills of Core Formation.
This is also the norm for most Nascent Soul cultivators.
After a breakthrough, one needs to spend significant time cultivating divine skills and nurturing their life-bound magical treasure!
For someone like Xiao Xiyue, she’s already quite fast, and she doesn’t have to worry about her magical treasures.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
The two indulged in affection within the sect, practicing the Sun Moon Samsara Technique.
On this day, the Sun and Moon Token in Lu Changsheng’s hand appeared, and his wife Lu Miaoyun sent a message.
Hong Yi had passed away.
Three years ago, at his own Core Formation ceremony, Hong Yi had looked gaunt, dragging a body as withered as a dead tree to offer his congratulations. Lu Changsheng knew that this old friend didn’t have much time left.
Now that he had passed away peacefully, it was to be expected.
"Hong Yi has passed away. I’ll go see him off."
Lu Changsheng spoke.
Even though over the years, the two had rarely interacted.
But Hong Yi was, after all, one of his few friends.
The Lu Family of Ruyi Prefecture had also been greatly looked after by him in earlier years.
Now that he’s passed, it is only right to go and pay respects.
"I will go as well."
Xiao Xiyue, with a blush on her cheeks, leaned into Lu Changsheng’s arms and spoke softly.
Lu Changsheng had always maintained contact with Hong Yi.
After she broke through to the Foundation Establishment and cultivated the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique, the contact with Hong Yi gradually ceased.
Had she not heard about his passing, it would’ve been fine.
But now that she had, she was willing to go along with Lu Changsheng to pay her respects.
"Alright."
Though it’s likely to cause quite a stir for two Nascent Soul Immortals to attend the funeral of an Energy Refining Cultivator,
But being at the Core Formation stage, they wouldn’t care about others’ opinions.
After spending a tender moment, the two exited the cave mansion.
When they arrived at the Qingyun Sect’s mountain gate, Lu Changsheng paused slightly.
He could no longer remember how many times he had been to the Qingyun Sect.
But he still remembered vividly his first time coming to the Qingyun Sect.
At that time, himself, Xiao Xiyue, Zhao Qingqing, Li Feiyu, Han Lin, and Hong Yi were brought to the Qingyun Sect for the entrance examination.
Xiao Xiyue, Zhao Qingqing, and Han Lin were accepted into the Qingyun Sect, while he, Li Feiyu, and Hong Yi did not make it.
Eighty-one years had passed.
Of the original group of six, Hong Yi had passed away, Li Feiyu’s whereabouts were unknown, and Han Lin had gone to a certain marketplace for retirement, taking up the position of a refining steward.
Although Zhao Qingqing broke through to Core Formation, her aptitude was also limited.
If she doesn’t switch to cultivating the Heavenly Longevity Technique, she can only stop at the False Core stage.
"What’s wrong?"
Xiao Xiyue, dressed in a moon-white dress, her beauty unparalleled, stood beside Lu Changsheng, as if they were a pair of celestial companions.
"It’s nothing."
Lu Changsheng shook his head and, together with Xiao Xiyue, traveled to Bi Lake Mountain, then on to Ruyi Prefecture.
