Chapter 499 The Opportunity for the Fusion of Ice and Flame: The Birth of a Spiritual Treasure!
The jade slip containing the rudimentary design, or rather, the "requests," was cast into the twilight sky beneath the towering clouds.
Wang Yu then waited quietly to the side.
After a short while, Yan Ling arrived late. After receiving the reward for passing the second level, she looked at Wang Yu.
Since the two were far ahead, Wang Yu repeated the same tips that Jin Miaoshan had told him, and Yan Ling immediately understood.
in this way.
After waiting for the time it takes to burn three incense sticks, Bishop Youpeng, the third person to clear the level, said with deep emotion.
"Fellow Daoist Wang is as fast as lightning; his speed is undoubtedly among the top-tier of Nascent Soul cultivators."
"Brother Youpeng, you flatter me. It's just that the challenge is just right for me."
"That's not how it works. True skill is true skill, especially with this... fellow Daoist by your side."
Yan Ling's face was slightly rosy, but it wasn't that she was in good health.
Instead, he was somewhat embarrassed by You Peng's hesitant words. The Nascent Soul experts of the Underworld Mountain Sect had entered the Myriad Treasures Secret Realm many times, so there was no need to elaborate on the relevant information.
He had prepared meticulously designed weapon-refining diagrams.
As dusk settled beneath the clouds, the two chatted about the situation on the battlefield between the righteous and demonic forces, pointing out various aspects of the battle and engaging in lively conversation.
Not long after.
Then a fourth person passed the Cloud Path Speed Race.
Wang Yu, the man in question, was already well-known. He was the Yin-Yang Demon Lord of the Hehuan Demon Sect. He was extremely fond of women and was skilled in corpse control and illusionary magic.
With his cultivation reaching the eighth level of the Nascent Soul stage, he was considered one of the most notorious demons in Chi Yuan, to the point that female cultivators would flee at the mere mention of his name, truly a lustful fiend.
Lei Yao, Wang Yu's old friend at Lei Huo Temple.
One of his lifelong wishes was to slay this demon. The enmity and hatred between the two had been intertwined for hundreds of years, and sooner or later one of them would die.
Upon reaching the finish line, his gaze naturally fell upon Yan Ling. Upon seeing this, Wang Yu frowned slightly and stepped aside to protect Yan Ling behind him.
Yin Yang Demon Lord immediately revealed a kind smile, walked to the side by himself, and threw the prepared weapon-refining diagram into the dim sky.
Clearly, even if he is a womanizer...
Having heard of Wang Yu's deeds, she immediately backed down when he showed any intention to protect her, without any intention of clashing with him.
The saying "a wise man submits to circumstances" illustrates this point.
Wang Yu sized up the guy.
The sparse, grayish-white hair, with a layer of dead skin and wrinkled, grayish-black scalp covered in dead skin and lividity, gave off a sleazy and disgusting feeling.
The eye sockets protrude, and the eyes are sunken.
The wrinkles under her eyes were layered and pale pink, resembling the pattern of a chrysanthemum, which made her look even more disgusting. Her eyes were inverted triangles, and her mouth and nose were crooked.
He was incredibly ugly, only slightly uglier than the filthy Taoist priest of the Yellow Springs Temple, but even more disgusting.
There was also a lingering stench of decay emanating from him.
It smelled awful, as if it were covered in maggots.
With that kind of image, even a nine-generation prostitute probably wouldn't take his business unless forced.
but.
Wang Yu vaguely remembered hearing someone say that this person was incredibly handsome, a dashing male cultivator that women flocked to. Now it seemed that his appearance was a disguise using illusion magic.
He also had several children, some of whom died and some of whom are still alive.
at this time.
The Yin-Yang Demon Lord suddenly spoke in a sinister tone.
"Why are you staring at me, Fellow Daoist Jifa? Do you think I'm ugly?"
Wang Yu immediately sneered.
"Ugly? It's a disgrace to the family. How ugly must your father be to give birth to a face like yours? You've dragged down the average appearance of the Crimson Kite cultivators."
"If I were your father, you would have choked to death in the bathtub when you were born."
Wang Yu's words were extremely aggressive.
The Yin-Yang Demon Lord was stunned by the attack. He deliberately used a sinister tone to test the waters, but to his surprise, the other party was not afraid at all.
They even started to provoke us.
The thought of the other party's status as a junior made Yin Yang Demon Lord tremble with anger.
Bishop Youpeng was also taken aback by this situation.
After a brief moment of thought, he immediately stood next to Wang Yu, his dark demonic energy rising in his hand, giving off an attitude of "If you dare to make a move, I'll kill you."
Yan Ling was secretly moved, thinking that Wang Yu's words were to help her vent her anger, since the disgusting look he had given her earlier had made her feel very uncomfortable.
After a brief standoff, the Yin-Yang Demon Lord let out a cold snort.
They went even further and set up soundproof barriers to block out external interference.
Wang Yu was genuinely amused.
He now looks like he has four big characters engraved all over his body.
—The Bully of the Secret Realm!
As time passed, more and more Nascent Soul cultivators arrived at the third level. Half a day later.
When the last person to clear the level threw the weapon-forging diagram into the twilight sky, spatial ripples suddenly arose beneath the sea of clouds, as if a third space had opened.
Wang Yu, Yan Ling, and two unknown individuals in the early stages of the Nascent Soul realm.
A total of four people were enveloped by the spatial ripples and instantly disappeared from everyone's sight.
Yin Yang Demon Lord suddenly flicked his sleeve.
He dispersed a large number of clouds and returned home feeling extremely frustrated. He was the fourth person to pass the level, but the Thousand Treasures Elixir could only be obtained by the first three people to pass the level.
This trip was equivalent to using several top-grade spirit stones to buy two drops of Hundred Treasures Elixir; what a huge loss!
Apart from the top three, those Nascent Soul participants who were not chosen by the spirit of the Myriad Treasures Pool basically suffered a complete loss.
The field of vision shifts.
After a moment, the image reflected in their eyes flashed, and a brightly colored treasure pool appeared before the four of them, with nine-colored flames burning above it.
A fire sprite jumped out from it.
The voice was childish, yet it carried a powerful sense of authority befitting a deity.
"Sun-Piercing Demon Bow, Ice Lotus Sword, Sky-Measuring Ruler, Mountain-Driving Whip, your ideas are quite good, who wants to go first?"
Wang Yu tilted his head to signal Yan Ling to go first, then turned to look at the other two early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, and both of them trembled.
"We have met the Demon Lord of the Extreme Law Profound Pill. We are two rogue cultivators from the South China Sea, hired by Jin Manlou at great expense. The opportunity to refine pills is not something we have."
Upon hearing this, Wang Yu's once bright and interested eyes immediately lost their luster... He couldn't be the bully of the secret realm anymore. As expected, Jin Manlou would still secretly send people.
Given their vast wealth and sphere of influence, resorting to such petty tricks for a mere Myriad Treasures Secret Realm is truly a sign of their stinginess.
While secretly regretting it, Wang Yu remained outwardly calm: "You've misunderstood. Since you're from Jin Manlou, you're not outsiders. Please go first."
"No, no, Senior Jifa, please go first."
Push to the left and yield to the right.
Wang Yu is currently in second place. Although it's a pity he can't seize two opportunities to refine, he's not without something to do.
The nine-colored flame floating above the Wanbao Pond is actually one with the pond itself, but the aura and characteristics revealed in the flame are far more than one.
It was completely different from the various spiritual flames of heaven and earth that Wang Yu knew, as if it were a product of fusion. Wang Yu's heart stirred, and he began to perceive it more carefully with his divine sense.
"Vibrant green flames, white flames that thunderbolt and drive away all evil, and explosive crimson flames..."
Nine colors and nine characteristics are perfectly integrated together, forming this fifth-grade top-quality spiritual treasure together with the Myriad Treasures Pool.
Seeing that Yan Ling was providing the equipment out of his own pocket, the spirit of the artifact provided three kinds of top-grade fourth-tier equipment for free, which made Wang Yu understand the mechanism of the Myriad Treasures Pool better.
The reward for reaching the third level might just be this free equipment.
"Three kinds...that should be enough."
in this way.
After sitting in meditation for several months, a frost-cold demonic sword with a hilt like an ice lotus suddenly sprang out from the colorful liquid pool. It was the Ice Lotus Sword that Yan Ling had requested.
"A top-tier fourth-order item, nothing special."
This doesn't refer to the Ice Lotus Sword, but rather that Yan Ling failed to seize the opportunity, which was clearly not the limit of the Myriad Treasures Spirit.
Yan Ling was quite satisfied.
"This magic weapon can temporarily replace the effect of my natal magic weapon, and it's even enough for me to use for a lifetime."
If one doesn't have the potential to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, this sword is indeed qualified, and it can greatly enhance Yan Ling's combat power, making him barely able to fight against someone in the mid-Nascent Soul stage.
They witnessed the power of the Wanbao Qiling.
With a flick of Wang Yu's Sea Heart Ring, countless rare and precious materials instantly filled the space above the Myriad Treasures Pool, all of them of the lowest quality being fourth-tier.
Wanbao Qiling was greatly encouraged.
Each precious material can provide it with design ideas, and brilliant ideas spring up like mushrooms after rain, which are constantly being absorbed by the small hand made of nine-colored flames.
Stardust Sand, Taiyin Silver Marrow, Great Sun Gold Essence, Celestial Mysterious Iron, Flowing Light Divine Silkworm Silk... without exception, all the items he selected were top-grade fourth-tier items.
More importantly, Wang Yu also threw out a batch of "scrap metal" he had obtained from the ancient human emperor's secret vault. Although they were said to be useless, they could actually be melted down to obtain many rare and extinct materials.
It is perfect as a supplement.
All four could feel the excitement of the magical artifact spirit. After it finished selecting the materials provided by Wang Yu, it waved its little hand and took out an extremely rare fifth-tier treasure material.
—The heart of the phoenix and the parasol tree!
The phoenix tree is also known as the "phoenix tree," but not every phoenix tree can have such a magical effect. A true phoenix tree must have a real phoenix or dragon perched there year-round to produce its unique effect.
The paulownia wood flooring laid in the Immortal Official's Medicine Storehouse in Dongjijing was the real phoenix wood where the true spirit phoenix once briefly landed!
However, the quality is mainly at the third tier, while the flooring on the top layer is made of fourth-tier phoenix wood. The fifth-tier paulownia heartwood that has been taken out is clearly intended to be used as the main material for the Sunpiercing Demon Bow.
This also means that... a fifth-tier spiritual treasure is about to be born here.
Wang Yu held his breath and concentrated.
Seeing the spirit of the Wanbao artifact controlling the nine-colored flames, separating the green flames of vitality and the red flames of explosion, it began the initial processing of the materials. The colored liquid in the Wanbao Pool was also a top-grade coolant.
The weapon-refining techniques resembled butterflies flitting among flowers.
A powerful magical bow is gradually taking shape. Along the way, Wang Yu provides a massive amount of magical energy, as well as his own blood and essence, as requested by the artifact spirit.
It uses a lost blood-refining method to continuously increase the compatibility between Wang Yu and the nascent spiritual treasure, so that the soon-to-be-born spirit can naturally recognize Wang Yu as its master.
As time passed, Wang Yu's serious gaze suddenly sharpened, even though he couldn't steal the weapon-refining method from the spirit of the Myriad Treasures.
However, from the separation and aggregation of the nine-colored spiritual flames, he keenly sensed the opportunity for the advancement of the Ice Dragon Flame, which was only at the third level.
With the placement bar reaching the fourth tier, its potential had reached its limit, but... Wang Yu, who unexpectedly mastered the Heavenly Wonder Ice Flame Butterfly, once again glimpsed an opportunity for advancement.
If we could fuse with the ice and flame power of the Gu worms.
The combination of the two may well break through to the fifth rank. As long as the limitation of the major rank is broken and it is slowly nurtured, it is not difficult to raise it to the fifth rank limit.
By absorbing the energy of extreme cold and grinding it down over time, it can be achieved!
The only weakness is that the Ice Flame Butterfly is still too weak. It needs to be raised to the peak of the fourth tier in groups to have a chance of cultivating a fifth-tier Ice Flame.
After the Wanbao Secret Realm trip is over, the subsequent secret realm itinerary can be postponed, taking advantage of the fact that there are still more than thirty years left in the Heavenly Palace Secret Realm.
If only we could master a fifth-order ice flame in advance.
In the Endless Ice Plains, he was the number one person below the Nascent Soul stage, and it was even possible that he could briefly contend with Nascent Soul cultivators, just like the scene when the Yellow Springs Temple Master dealt with the Crimson Heaven Demon Lord.
He could easily achieve that level; in fact, with no obvious weaknesses and many advantages, he could do even better than the Master of the Yellow Springs Temple.
This kind of improvement is greater than the gains from the secret realm.
It's absolutely worth his time to try and gain even greater benefits.
Several months later.
After spending a full year in the Myriad Treasures Secret Realm, Wang Yu finally made up for the missing piece of magic weapon he had been longing for, and the Sun Piercing Demon Bow was officially forged by the weapon spirit.
At that time.
Above Wanbao Pond, amidst the gradually dissipating nine-colored flames, a fiery red longbow revealed its true form. The bow was half a zhang long, or 1.6 meters, nearly the height of a person.
It was an absolute giant bow, with a phoenix spreading its wings totem appearing on the bow arm, burning with an inextinguishable phoenix flame, which could be considered a secondary spiritual flame nurtured by the paulownia wood.
It lacks the terrifying power of a true phoenix flame, and is merely an endless fire lacking a source of fire; its decorative significance outweighs its practical value.
Four silver gemstones, resembling the stars in the sky, adorn the front and back of the bow, like the eyes of a phoenix, radiating a chilling aura.
Don't forget.
The Sun-Piercing Demon Bow was designed from the outset as a spiritual treasure with the attribute of cold, and a large amount of precious materials with the attribute of yin and cold were added during the refining process.
so.
Despite its appearance resembling a flaming longbow, the spirit of the magical artifact utilizes a reversal pattern that can convert high temperatures into cold air.
The higher the temperature, the colder the air.
Although it differs somewhat from Wang Yu's initial idea, it is still a very good offensive spiritual treasure, enough to become his new means of attack.
However, it loses its compatibility with its natal divine power, the Twelve Phases of Guanghan. Every sip and bite is ordained by Heaven, so there is no need to pursue perfection in everything.
Reaching the level of mid-grade fifth rank already satisfied Wang Yu considerably.
Just as he was about to take the Sun-Piercing Demon Bow and communicate with its spirit to recognize it as his master, the spirit of the Myriad Treasures once again waved its small hand, and a large amount of colorful precious liquid swept out.
It was compressed into a single drop of nine-colored liquid at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It merged into the Sun-Piercing Demon Bow in a flash.
"This is……"
Wang Yu's eyes shone brightly, both surprised by the spirit's willingness to part with the item and amazed by his own good fortune. If he wasn't mistaken, that drop of nine-colored liquid was the rare spiritual item that hadn't appeared in the Myriad Treasures Secret Realm for thousands of years—the Myriad Treasures Liquid!
Its effect can be inferred from the previously obtained Hundred Treasures and Thousand Treasures Liquids, which can raise a fifth-order spiritual treasure by one rank without any side effects.
Therefore.
When the Sun-Piercing Demon Bow fell into Wang Yu's hands, it had reached the level of a fifth-grade superior quality, a huge profit!
Update is here!
