Chapter 121 Passerby Affected by the Cultivation Novel 27

Jiang Yue then bid on the Five Elements Jade and the most important Soul Stone. The Five Elements Jade cost 100,000 high-grade spirit stones, while the Soul Stone was much more expensive, costing a full 220,000. The Five Elements Jade and Lapis Lazuli were relatively simple to use, only for refining weapons, while the Soul Stone was different. It could be used for refining weapons, pills, and even puppets, so the competition was much fiercer.

Jiang Yue didn't keep the remaining 85,000 high-grade spirit stones. She spent 80,000 to bid on another piece of ore. Although it wasn't what Jiang Yue needed, she could keep it and exchange it for the ore she needed later. After attending the first day's auction, Jiang Yue went to the cultivation room used by the Chamber of Commerce for breakthroughs. She wasn't in a hurry to leave because she was afraid of being robbed, so she decided to go and break through first.

Having gained experience from previous breakthroughs, Jiang Yue took advantage of the opportunity to break through and consumed the Creation Pill and some spiritual liquid pills to aid in the breakthrough. This breakthrough took more than 200 years. After nearly 700 years in the cultivation world, Jiang Yue finally became a Nascent Soul cultivator. Reaching the Nascent Soul stage meant she was no longer a nobody, and her ability to protect herself was greatly enhanced. She no longer had to worry about suddenly dying one day.

Once Jiang Yue achieved the Nascent Soul stage, she could begin to utilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Her ability to summon wind and rain was essentially the same as that of a deity. After consolidating her cultivation, Jiang Yue sensed her lifespan limit. If she didn't die halfway through, she should be able to live to 7,000 years old. Jiang Yue was astonished; her lifespan had doubled in an instant.

Afterwards, she felt that the power of her supernatural abilities had increased a lot. Her realm remained unchanged at the early stage of the Nascent Soul stage, and her physical body was still at the perfect Nascent Soul stage. Breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage with her physical body was not easy and required special pills to assist her. Moreover, such pills to assist in the breakthrough were very rare and few people refined them. They were not even available at auctions. Her divine sense also broke through at the same time, reaching the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul stage. Jiang Yue also had a premonition that it would be basically impossible to raise her divine sense to a higher realm in the future.

After completing the breakthrough, Jiang Yue returned to her cave dwelling. Fortunately, her cave dwelling had an automatic renewal function, otherwise she would have been homeless. She checked the talismans and saw that they hadn't been idle for the past 200 years and could be sold for several hundred thousand spirit stones. She then went to check the herbs in the spirit herb garden. Jiang Yue no longer relied on the protagonist and started planting herbs herself.

Most of them are 200 years old. Herbs are not like you plant a herb and it becomes a 4,000-year-old herb after 4,000 years. Some herbs will die if they cannot break through their own limits and reach a certain stage. Over the past few hundred years, Jiang Yue has not been able to grow many plants that are over 200 years old. Most of the herbs that are over 500 years old are bought.

After tidying up his cave dwelling, he went to the Universal Chamber of Commerce and sold all the talismans for 1 million high-grade spirit stones. With 200 years of continuous production, that works out to 5,000 spirit stones a year. The higher the cultivation level, the more money one can make. Even when Jiang Yue was in the Golden Core stage, her net worth was only a few thousand high-grade spirit stones.

Jiang Yue collected all the items purchased through the bounty into her storage bag, paid off the money and late fees. Her account had been in arrears, and the late fees were incurred because she hadn't collected the items by the deadline. She also bought some fifth-tier ores and put the missing ores on the bounty list. Now that Jiang Yue is fifth-tier, she can try to complete the crafting of the Spirit Mirror once she has collected all the ores.

I went back to my cave to upgrade all my magical artifacts. My weapon crafting level has now successfully broken through to the fifth rank, but unfortunately I haven't reached the perfect fifth rank yet. I'm only at the mid-fifth rank, so I still need to upgrade my weapon crafting level a bit more.

Over the next three hundred years, Jiang Yue spent much less time cultivating, and almost became the exclusive weapon refiner of the Universal Chamber of Commerce. His cultivation level was only at the peak of the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, but his weapon refining skills reached the peak of the fifth rank.

When Jiang Yue was 1100 years old, her spiritual consciousness reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. She had prepared all the materials needed to refine Bai Ze. After four hundred years of uninterrupted refining, her skills had reached their peak, and she could begin refining. She chose to refine the weapon on a remote island, not daring to do so in the city, for fear that she would not be able to protect it after success.

In the makeshift room, a blazing fire burned beneath the furnace beside the refining platform. Once the refining process began, Jiang Yue stood intently before the platform. She took a deep breath to calm her mind, then channeled all her spiritual energy into the furnace like a gentle stream. Under her control, the flames rose to an even higher temperature, and the ore began to melt rapidly, turning into a scorching liquid.

"Lapis lazuli gives it strength."

"The Five Elements Jade harmonizes their properties."

Jiang Yue murmured to herself. As she refined the mirror, its prototype gradually appeared, and a strange light emanated from its surface, as if life was surging within it. She skillfully used the divine mud, and with the addition of other materials, the mirror became even more perfect and flawless.

Jiang Yue proceeded with each step methodically. When inscribing runes, she was highly focused, further refining and perfecting the mirror, adjusting its various attributes to bring it to its optimal state. After the magic weapon was formed, Jiang Yue integrated the soul stone into it, infusing it with her own thoughts and guiding it with spiritual power through continuous divine thought.

After some minor adjustments and optimizations, the long and arduous process of forging the Dawn Mirror was finally completed. At the moment of success, dark clouds filled the sky, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and the Dawn Mirror soared into the sky to meet the lightning tribulation. Just then, a thick bolt of lightning struck the Dawn Mirror, which shone brightly and struggled to withstand the impact of the lightning tribulation. Jiang Yue watched all of this nervously, silently praying in her heart, "It must succeed!"

Under the baptism of lightning tribulation, the magic weapon gradually became more powerful and perfect, radiating a more dazzling light, as if announcing its rebirth and extraordinary nature. After several lightning tribulations, the Dawn Mirror was finally successfully refined. It spun around in the sky a few times, and with a thought, Jiang Yue arrived above the head of the little soul figure.

After putting away the refining furnace, Jiang Yue cast some talismans to disperse the remaining aura. With a thought, she teleported back to her cave. Then, she took the mirror in her hand, and a miniature version of herself appeared on the mirror, about the same size as when she first condensed her nascent soul.

"Hello, Master, I am Bai Ze." The spirit's name is Bai Ze, a name given to her by Jiang Yue, which shows Jiang Yue's expectations for it.

"Bai Ze, what abilities do you have?!"

"At the beginning of my birth, I received all the knowledge of my master. I can perceive the surrounding environment and things, transmit information, control the Dawn Mirror, provide some defensive capabilities, and also have a certain degree of learning ability. I should be classified as a strong artificial intelligence."

Jiang Yue took out a phone, turned it on, and asked Bai Ze, "Bai Ze, can you connect to this phone?"

A moment later, Bai Ze's voice came through the phone: "Master, I'm here!"
