Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme - Chapter 421

Chapter 421: Chapter 268: The Human Heart (Two in One)_2

If I could master this technology, incorporating the War God’s Atlas’s technique of absorbing the Heavenly Earth Prime Spirit to produce heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and apply it to both the Primordial Spirit World and the real world, then the development of Wandao School and Fish and Dragon Island would certainly advance further.

Leaving other things aside, let’s just talk about Artifact Refining. After accepting the ancient legacies from the Primordial Spirit World, the Artifact Skills of Wandao School have reached the Sixth Order, and in theory, they have the ability to refine Middle-Grade Immortal Artifacts.

But this is ultimately just theory and cannot be realized, because a good housewife cannot cook without rice: there isn’t such high-quality material in the Primordial Spirit World that can be used to refine Middle-Grade Immortal Artifacts, at most, Lower-Grade Immortal Artifacts can be made.

If I could master the “Yuan Spirit Refinement Technique” of the War God’s Atlas and produce high-quality heavenly materials and earthly treasures as materials, then let alone Middle-Grade Immortal Artifacts, even Superior Immortal Artifacts, and Supreme Grade Immortal Artifacts, it would be possible for Wandao School to refine them.

With this in mind, coupled with the Heavenly Crafts Natural Creation and the Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor method…

The prospects of development are self-evident!

We could even harbor ambitions for other worlds, wage war across the heavens, plunder Primordial Spirit resources, and achieve the true Wandao School—or even Wandao Heavenly Palace!

The importance of this “Yuan Spirit Refinement Technique” is thus clear.

It must be obtained!

Xu Yang collected his thoughts and, looking at the crowd of treasures, took out a bottle of Hundred Flowers Heavenly Fragrance Liquid and handed it to Su Shaoqing, who was at his side: “This item is more suited for a woman’s use. Take it to enhance your cultivation, and do not slack off.”

“This… is!”

Looking at the Hundred Flowers Heavenly Fragrance Liquid that exuded a faint, alluring fragrance, Su Shaoqing hesitated but eventually nodded in agreement and respectfully accepted the jade bottle.

Although it was key to assist the ancestral emperor in advancing his cultivation without reservation, faced with a gift from Xu Yang, she did not dare to refuse, not to mention the onlookers beside her. If she revealed the true reason for her hesitation, would that not expose the fact that she was outwardly strong but inwardly weak?

She decided to accept it for now and find an opportunity later to return it to the ancestral emperor.

These were Su Shaoqing’s little thoughts.

Her thoughts were good, but perhaps a bit too complicated.

Killing and arson for a gold belt, neglecting risks, in the short term, being a Robbing Cultivator is indeed a very lucrative career.

This raid on South Mountain City, trampling flowers and seizing heavenly scents, was full of gains: a mere bottle of Hundred Flowers Heavenly Fragrance Liquid was nothing. Giving it away was nothing, as there were still plenty of amazing treasures that could be used to enhance cultivation.

Not just in terms of power and cultivation, but also weapons and equipment.

As the force of Yuan Spirit was mainly sealed for the War God’s Atlas’s own use, there weren’t many Spiritual Objects available in the world. Over a span of three months, Xu Yang had gone through countless hardships barely managing to find some materials that could just pass for Spiritual Objects in order to refine a batch of Storage Bags and Beast Controlling Bags for the purpose of looting.

It was only because Chen Pojun, the youngster who sent treasures, had left some “Earth Sha Mysterious Iron” for him; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to refine those five Spiritual Artifact-level Sky-sealing Lock Swords, and it would have been difficult to capture Zhou Fengyu, the Divine Bridge Master, alive this time.

Now, having obtained a batch of high-quality Spiritual Objects from these people, using them as materials to refine artifacts and practice the art, he could definitely upgrade from a bird gun to a cannon, further strengthening his power.

Besides these heavenly materials and earthly treasures, the greatest gain of this venture was this group of Martial Artists.

Xu Yang cast his eyes downward, just in time to meet the eyes of Zhou Fengyu, Li Hongjun, Chu Lingfeng, Zhang Shaobai, and others, all filled with shock and indignation.

It has to be said, Divine Bridge Martial Artists are indeed Divine Bridge Martial Artists. Even with their bodies pierced and shackled by five Spiritual Artifact-level Sky-sealing Lock Swords and suppressed by The Technique to Drag Thousand Mountains, they still hadn’t fainted; their constitutions were truly formidable.

Xu Yang waved his hand and cast a spell, slightly loosening the Taoism Curse Skills on everyone’s bodies.

“Heh! Heh! Heh!”

With the heavy pressure suddenly relaxed and regaining some freedom, the people hurriedly gasped for air.

Zhou Fengyu, in particular, propped up his body with effort, looking at Xu Yang with uncertain shock: “Is this… Broken Void?”

Xu Yang shook his head: “No.”

“If such means are not Broken Void, then what is it?”

Hearing this, Zhou Fengyu’s frown grew even more severe as he looked at Xu Yang, filled with puzzlement.

Xu Yang smiled but did not elaborate.

This world, although altered by the Temple of War God and the War God’s Atlas, still leans heavily towards the Martial Path and lacks many profound and strange techniques and methods; in some aspects, it can even be said to be primitive and backward.

Take for instance, the art of the Void. Xu Yang had already learned about it from Su Shaoqing: this world does not have spatial Magic Artifacts like Storage Bags and Beast Controlling Bags; Mustard Seed Sumeru is still a method of legend.

While it is legendary, there is still much speculation, and many Martial Artists believe that the 49th War God Chart “Broken Void” contains this kind of power and that by inheriting it, one could refine this Divine Skill.

Zhou Fengyu, obviously, was one of them. Therefore, upon witnessing Xu Yang’s method of using the Beast Controlling Bag to capture everyone, he suspected that Xu Yang had grasped the mysteries of Broken Void.

It made sense, considering that the Heaven Martial Emperor had passed away in the Temple of War God, and it was natural to contemplate the mysteries of the War God’s Atlas.

Unfortunately, this natural assumption was not reality. Xu Yang’s understanding of the War God’s Atlas was far less than these later generations of Martial Artists with Divine Martial Heritage.

Although now, his Taoism Divine Skills and Yuan Spirit True Jue completely suppressed the Divine Martial Technique, it did not mean the Martial Path system was inferior to the Immortal Path system. He had simply seized an information advantage and had a strong foundation with various methods at his disposal, such as Formation, Artifact Skills, and Curse Skill, catching his opponents off guard to gain the upper hand.

If normal Martial Artists and Cultivators were to clash without knowledge of the other’s foundation and without specific countermeasures, with raw power alone, then most likely it would be a draw.
