I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 2508: Chapter 1124: Nine Spirits Marshal (Part 2)

”May I ask, Senior Blue Emperor, why is this awakening of the robe so simple in your hands?”

Yuwen Baozhi couldn’t help but be the first to speak. If he could master this technique of awakening, he felt he could also attempt to craft a fifth-rank artifact.

Chen Lingming and Master Jingchi also perked up their ears when they heard this, as this was their biggest question too.

”All things possess spirit, especially fifth-rank materials like hides which come from True Spirits, at the very least they have absorbed the essence of heaven and earth, the light of the sun, moon, and stars for thousands of years. We only need to slightly activate and enlighten them to awaken their dormant spirituality.”

”So the key to awakening a magic artifact can be endowment, but more often it is awakening. The former is mostly lifespan artifacts that grow with the cultivator. But most of the fifth-rank artifacts we craft cannot be refined and endowed like lifespan artifacts, so using awakening is simpler.”

”The higher the rank of the materials, the more abundant the hidden spirituality, and the easier it is to awaken. This is why high-rank artifacts require spirituality.”

Chen Mobai simplified what he had learned in university and informed the three of them.

Dance Tool Dao Academy, as an ancestral court of immortal gate artifact refining, had reached peak mastery in the research of refining. The course on artifact spirituality was taught right from the start to shape every artifact refiner’s understanding of the framework of spirituality.

However, though it’s easy to say, achieving it still requires the necessary artifact refining technique rank.

Of course, Chen Mobai was able to do this effortlessly all thanks to ”The Union of Differences.”

This was also the cultivation technique within the immortal gate considered to have the lowest threshold for divinity transformation.

All one needs is to find a high-grade artifact perfectly matching in aptitude and mind to cooperate, such as Ancestor Yun Ya, Cheng Xuan, and even Xuanwu and Bai Guang. Their initial foundation was also ”The Union of Differences.”

After refining the Dao Fruit from the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree, ”The Union of Differences” was elevated to the level of divinity transformation, and he even glimpsed the profound mystery of the sixth-rank Cultivating Void.

Because of this, he now had nearly perfect assurance when refining fifth-rank artifacts.

”Thank you, Senior Blue Emperor, for your guidance. Please accept my bow for the gift of the Dao!”

Once Yuwen Baozhi finished listening to Chen Mobai’s teachings on artifact spirituality, he suddenly realized the true magnitude of his talent for artifact refining. Instantly, he felt a significant increase in his refining realm and respectfully bowed deeply to Chen Mobai.

”Thank you for the teachings, Sect Master!”

Jingchi and Chen Lingming, who were beside him, also realized this and followed Yuwen Baozhi in paying respects.

”You pay tuition, I teach you, it is right and proper, no need for such formalities.”

Chen Mobai waved his hand to stop them.

This kneeling might create another bond, it’s better to keep things simple between us.

Yuwen Baozhi rose with a regretful expression, while Chen Lingming pondered whether to stay longer in the Eastern Wilderness to seek more advanced refining knowledge from the Sect Master.

Only Master Jingchi felt like a treasure mountain lay before him, yet he could only scrape a bit from the surface.

At this moment, he envied Chen Lingming for being part of the Five Elements Sect, where he could always seek guidance.

”Senior Blue Emperor, the robe’s rank seems a bit unstable.”

At this time, Yuwen Baozhi pointed to the Earth Spirit Robe hovering in mid-air. He found that with its awakened rich spirituality, after absorbing a vast amount of Earth Element Spiritual Qi, it forced its way into intermediate fifth-rank, yet it flickered unsteadily, with a tendency to fall.

Chen Mobai smiled slightly, reached out again to gently point, and enveloped the Earth Spirit Robe with the Pure Yang Great Dao Power, quickly stabilizing it at intermediate fifth-rank.

The robe’s flickering spirituality, under the support of the Great Dao Power, condensed into a chubby white little pig, standing on its two hind legs, with front legs folded in greeting, repeatedly bowing to Chen Mobai.

”Intermediate fifth-rank is barely acceptable.”

After inspecting the robe’s appearance, restriction, and divine skills, Chen Mobai’s comments left everyone present in awe.

After all, some fleeting Holy Lands have the hereditary supreme treasures of only fifth rank.

If this Earth Spirit Robe were to be sold, it would attract a frenzy among all the Nascent Souls in the East Continent.

After all, the price of defensive magic artifacts has always exceeded that of offensive ones.

Even Dustless True Monarch felt tempted.

”Truly deserving to be the successor of Yi Yuan True Monarch, this artifact refining technique is truly divine!”

Ao Yuxia looked at the Earth Spirit Robe in her son’s hands with amazement.

”I feel that Yi Yuan True Monarch’s artifact refining technique is inferior compared to Chen’s at this stage.”

Dustless True Monarch remarked, having been neighbors with Yi Yuan Dao Palace in the East Land for over six thousand years, he knew very well their proud artifact refining heritage. He could affirm that it could not compare to Chen Mobai’s.

”I see.”

Upon hearing this, Ao Yuxia’s eyes sparkled, and her desire to have Yuwen Baozhi seek apprenticeship grew stronger.

At this moment, the Earth Spirit Robe passed through the hands of the seven participants in the refining process, ultimately ending up with Xuande, who handed it to Chen Mobai, who then suspended it on a platform without sending Xuande away, beginning the refinement of the second Fire Spirit Robe.

As it was crafted for himself, Chen Mobai’s design was more flamboyant, his expression relaxed but method steady and precise, every step smooth and effortless.

Under his direction, Yuwen Baozhi and the other three started bustling around, handing him one item after another.

Not far away, seeing Xuande by Chen Mobai’s side listening, Lian Yuan, Yan Huo, and Xiao Yuli quickly regretted not thickening their face to go over. Now that the Fire Spirit Robe was already in the midst of refinement, they could only watch from afar, occasionally guiding Spiritual Qi with the Fire Vein.

Soon after, the Fire Spirit Robe took shape. Under ”The Union of Differences,” a flame blazed on the robe, and a Golden Flame Manticore emerged, its gaze fierce, its spirituality violent.

Seeing this, Chen Mobai was delighted.

The stronger this spirituality, the greater the robe’s potential, and under ”The Union of Differences,” the robe’s fire spirit had to behave obediently, completely unleashing the True Spirit Power contained within the materials.

As flames continued to burn, the artifact spirit-formed Golden Flame Manticore surprisingly grew a second head.

”The ancestor True Spirit of the Golden Lion Royal Court was a Nine-headed Five-colored Lion, vast in divine skills, even making Heavenly Sovereign suffer. That Nine-headed Five-colored Lion called itself the Nine Spirits Marshal, devouring hundreds of boys and girls when our human race first came to East Continent. The most difficult battle for our sect’s ancestor when assisting the Human Emperor to establish the Eastern Emperor Court was against the Golden Lion Royal Court.”

Dustless True Monarch, seeing the artifact spirit form of the Earth Spirit Robe, remembered the records in the sect’s texts, sighing.

Since the Eastern Emperor Court established its legal system in East Continent, battles with the Golden Lion Royal Court have been frequent.

Whenever humanity was strong, they would typically hunt down the Golden Lion Royal Court, finally in a great battle with the Nine-Headed Great Saint, annihilating the court, leaving the orphaned Golden Flame Manticore to flee into the depths of the ruins.

Even then, it was pursued to extinction by Dao Morale Sect leading the Eastern Continent Righteous Dao.

”The Nine-headed Five-colored Lion’s bloodline has been wiped out by your Eastern Continent Righteous Dao, and the True Spirit Bloodline concentration of the Golden Flame Manticore is probably less than fifty percent.”

Ao Yuxia, upon witnessing the untreated skin of the Golden Flame Manticore earlier, had detected the True Spirit aura it contained. Although rich, it was not very pure.

”But being the bloodline of the Nine Spirits Marshal, it’s best to eradicate them completely.”

Dustless True Monarch’s calm words made Ao Yuxia narrow her eyes.

She too was a True Spirit.

However, she also understood very well how difficult it had been for the Eastern Emperor Court to establish its law in East Continent, and the Taoist Ancestor’s great merits, even being honored as State Preceptor.

This is precisely why the hatred towards the Golden Lion Royal Court is ingrained in the Dao Morale Sect’s history.
