Chapter 1645
The 6th Tier 5 High-Grade Spiritual Treasure
at the same time.
Inside the cave.
'This mid-stage Nascent Soul realm cultivator is truly extraordinary.'
'I'm afraid my strength and lifespan have both increased considerably.'
'Furthermore, with the enhancement of my divine sense and other factors, it will be beneficial for my future understanding of spiritual plants, and even for my application of spiritual plant techniques.'
The results of this breakthrough have exceeded my expectations.
Ling Chengxin, the spirit plant's husband, felt the benefits brought by this breakthrough, and her brows were immediately filled with joy.
She then left the cave.
Then she saw that Ling Pengyun, Yan Siyi, Ling Chengmie and other close relatives had already gathered there and were all offering their congratulations.
"You've certainly lived up to the expectations of the family's Nascent Soul cultivators; you're quite remarkable."
"By the way, this is a top-grade wood-attribute special spiritual treasure, the Pine Tree Pearl, which I recently crafted as a mid-grade fifth-tier item."
"This can enhance the power of wood-attribute spells, and even spells involving spirit plants."
"..."
With a look of satisfaction, Ling Pengyun took out a fist-sized emerald green pearl and handed it to Ling Chengxin.
In recent years, he has gradually found the key to perfecting his original divine power, the "Five Elements Nest Thunder and Fire Dragon," by using his self-created innate divine power, the Azure Pine Heavenly Gang Thorn, as the source.
If this matter succeeds, the extraordinary spiritual treasure, the Pine Tree Pearl, will undoubtedly enhance the power of that spell.
Ling Pengyun never gave up his plan to refine a fifth-grade superior natal pine tree pearl spirit treasure.
He often collected materials to refine this item and improved his experience in refining this treasure.
After all, to improve one's weapon crafting skills, one needs to practice more.
That is why his chances of refining that special spiritual treasure are getting higher and higher.
He even regularly crafted high-quality pine pearls.
The pine tree pearl he gave to Ling Chengxin this time came from this source.
Furthermore, he was already somewhat confident that he could refine a fifth-grade superior pine pearl.
He then planned to let things settle for a few more years before attempting to refine it.
"By the way, Sister Cheng Xin, I obtained this little golden-feathered roc from a Nascent Soul trading fair in the Heavenly River Realm several years ago."
"Although he is still young, his bloodline is extraordinary, and he is expected to reach the Nascent Soul stage in the future."
"Originally, I planned to raise it as my natal spirit beast."
“But now, Sister Cheng Xin, you have entered the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and that thing is the only thing I have that I can show off.”
"I then intend to give it to you, Sister Cheng Xin."
Ling Chengmie took out a golden-feathered roc the size of a millstone and handed it to Ling Chengxin.
Although the Golden-feathered Roc was not very old, its bloodline was strong, so its growth rate was relatively fast.
He has already reached the peak of Qi Refining, and it won't be long before he can try to break through to Foundation Establishment.
Moreover, Ling Chengmie was confident that with the help of his fifth-order Beast Taming Dao, he could reach the Nascent Soul Perfection realm within the next few hundred years.
As for whether he could reach the Divine Transformation stage, he wasn't very confident.
Regardless, the Golden Feather Roc is a rare find, even in the Heavenly River Realm.
Although there are many powerful demon races in the Heavenly River Realm, the righteous path rarely manages to obtain high-potential young demon beasts from them.
In addition, Jin Yupeng was raised by Ling Cheng from a young age.
They are quite humane and incredibly kind.
"This little golden-feathered roc is indeed quite good; you've put a lot of thought into it, lad."
"By the way, Father, that Pine Pearl has been of great help to me. I thank you very much."
Ling Chengxin cultivated a wood-attribute technique, so the Pine Tree Pearl was of great help to her. As soon as she received the treasure, her eyes lit up and she quickly expressed her gratitude.
In addition, Yan Siyi and other close relatives also sent a gift.
Some of them are even rare items.
This also significantly increased Ling Chengxin's family wealth.
Overwhelmed with gratitude, she took out many fine gifts and hosted a small banquet to thank everyone.
Afterwards, Ling Chengxin realized that everything she had today was mainly due to the help of the divine spirits supported by her family.
She immediately took charge of caring for many high-level spiritual plants for the family.
However, due to his formidable skill in cultivating spiritual plants, the growth rate of the family's spiritual plants accelerated considerably.
Moreover, this action made Ling Pengyun's job of caring for the spiritual plants for his family much easier.
He can also free up more time for cultivation.
'Supporting this girl to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm is truly a wise move.'
After observing Ling Chengxin's actions, Ling Pengyun smiled and said...
He then went into seclusion to perfect the great divine power of the Thunderfire Dragon.
……
And as time goes by.
More than a decade has passed in the blink of an eye.
This day.
'Finally, using the ancient pine tree and heavenly piercing technique as a source, the Five Elements Morning Glow Thunderfire Flood Dragon Great Divine Power has been initially perfected.'
Ling Pengyun, who had been in seclusion for a long time, slowly opened his eyes, his brows full of joy.
As he raised his hand, an incomparably pure natural power of the ancient pine, the power of the morning glow and precious fire, and the power of destructive thunder immediately appeared.
Strangely enough, the natural power of the ancient pine tree rapidly nurtured the power of the morning glow and precious fire through a special means.
The destructive power of thunder was born from the morning glow and precious fire.
Back and forth, the natural power of the pine tree is like nourishment.
This rapidly amplified the power of the morning glow and the destructive thunder.
Ultimately, they coalesced into a special spiritual dragon with all three attributes combined.
Its entire body is covered in three colors: emerald green, crimson red, and black thunder, which is extremely strange.
However, its power is extraordinary, and it even has the power of a perfected Nascent Soul stage.
'This method is nearly 50% stronger than the previous Thunderfire Flood Dragon Great Divine Power.'
'And this isn't its limit; after all, I've only just begun to refine and master it.'
Only when it is perfected to a small degree, a great degree, or even completeness can it be considered the end.
"Only when that time comes will this three-attribute technique be considered truly perfected!"
Ling Pengyun was overjoyed as he gazed at the extraordinary power of the special dragon.
Then, considering the characteristics of that great supernatural power, he named it "Azure Pine Thunderfire Dragon".
Immediately afterwards, Ling Pengyun continued to comprehend and refine that great divine power, but this matter was rather complicated and would require a considerable amount of time.
He then set aside his main focus and concentrated on improving his skills in weapon crafting, attempting to refine a fifth-grade superior pine magic bead.
However, his foundation in refining this treasure was quite good.
In just a few years, he had everything ready.
'It's time to try refining that treasure.'
Ling Pengyun pondered for a moment, then took out the various rare spiritual materials he had collected in his early years.
They were numerous enough to barely gather the three materials needed to refine a fifth-grade superior pine magic bead.
And this amount of spiritual materials is already considered quite good.
Then, Ling Pengyun took out a brand-new mid-grade fifth-order refining furnace that he had recently crafted.
And it continuously burns its bottom with the precious fire of dawn, heating its interior.
As time went on, once the temperature reached a certain level, Ling Pengyun threw one of the refining materials into it one by one, using the high temperature to temper it.
This step was relatively simple, and no mistakes were made during the process.
It's just that those spiritual materials are of higher quality, making them more difficult to refine and time-consuming.
It took several years for this matter to finally come to an end. By then, the spiritual materials had transformed into clusters of special spiritual liquid.
'Freeze!'
As Ling Pengyun made a hand seal, the spiritual liquid immediately began to rotate rapidly within the refining furnace, gradually merging with the high temperature.
It eventually transformed into a ball of emerald green spiritual liquid and solidified into a fist-sized ancient pine magic bead.
But today it only has form, not spirit.
At this stage, we arrive at the most crucial and difficult step: engraving the patterns on the vessel.
It has more than a dozen artifact patterns, the most important of which is the unique fifth-grade superior pine tree natural artifact pattern.
The patterns on this artifact resonate with the power of heaven and earth.
Once this artifact pattern is completed, the Pine Tree Pearl can then use the power of heaven and earth to amplify the power of the cultivator's wood magic.
However, artifact patterns that are connected to the power of heaven and earth are generally extremely difficult to create.
The difficulty of engraving the natural pine pattern on the artifact is extremely high.
It is even several times more difficult to inscribe than the patterns on ordinary fifth-grade high-quality artifacts.
Ling Pengyun's pressure increased dramatically.
But the arrow has to be fired when it is on the string.
'We have no choice but to take a gamble.'
Ling Pengyun held his breath and focused his mind. He immediately used a special weapon-refining method to condense his divine sense into a special iron pen and began to engrave a continuous special pattern on the precious bead.
Gradually, the patterns even began to form leaves and flowers, which was extremely strange.
However, as the number of patterns increases, the repulsive force generated by those patterns also becomes stronger.
'Lingxiao Suppressing Weapon Technique!'
Ling Pengyun frowned and quickly formed a hand seal to cast a special spell to suppress the weapon's runes.
A special magic seal instantly formed and quickly merged into the patterns on the artifacts.
The patterns on the artifacts immediately calmed down considerably.
But that's about it.
Ling Pengyun put in a lot of effort to suppress them.
In addition, the difficulty of engraving the natural patterns of the ancient pine tree is quite high.
This is his first time making an inscription.
Even if he had long ago inherited the crafting techniques used to create this treasure, and had already mastered them.
He is bound to make some mistakes.
This first attempt at weapon forging ended in failure.
Fortunately, he managed to inscribe about 70% of the natural artifact patterns.
This experience became a valuable lesson for him.
He then learned from his mistake, meditated for a while, and after restoring himself to his best condition, he tried to forge weapons again.
He was lucky this second time he forged the weapon.
The natural patterns of the pine tree are depicted in full.
As for the other artifacts, the patterns are relatively simple, mostly of the lower to middle grade of the fifth rank.
Moreover, it is a pattern that complements the natural texture of the ancient pine tree.
Ling Pengyun did not make any mistakes.
Ultimately, the matter was resolved smoothly.
The ancient pine pearl, covered with unique patterns, also flashed brightly, bursting forth with an incomparably special spirituality.
It even eventually triggered a celestial calamity.
However, with Ling Pengyun's help, he successfully survived the tribulation.
The clouds of tribulation then rained down streams of sweet dew, nourishing its transformation.
Its aura surged instantly.
Fifth-grade superior quality!
'Unexpectedly, this treasure was successfully refined on the second attempt.'
"Upon closer examination, this treasure-refining operation turned out to be quite profitable, as the value of this treasure far exceeds that of the two sets of materials, even several times their value."
'Also, the third set of materials I had left over can be considered a saving.'
"And those spiritual materials are of the same origin as the fifth-grade superior pine pearl I just refined, so I can use them to temper its essence."
Ling Pengyun looked at the powerful Pine Tree Pearl in his hand and the remaining materials, his face beaming with joy.
Once he had the idea, he acted on it immediately.
Immediately, he opened the furnace again and used the third batch of spiritual materials to refine the essence of the precious pearl.
Although this matter was somewhat difficult, it was relatively simple for Ling Pengyun, who had refined a fifth-grade superior pine pearl once before.
The matter went smoothly without any problems.
Afterwards, the pearl's foundation strengthened considerably, even reaching the mid-level of its class.
However, it will be difficult for it to make further progress in a short period of time, as it will require at least three sets of spiritual materials that can be used to refine this treasure.
But this matter is somewhat troublesome.
Those spiritual materials are extremely rare, and some even require special fifth-grade high-quality spiritual wood and other spiritual items.
Previously, Ling Pengyun had spent a considerable amount of his wealth to collect the three materials needed to refine this treasure.
It was only through the convenience of a grand trade fair held by the 'Radiant Star Immortal Sect,' the strongest righteous force in the Heavenly River Realm, that it was able to be organized.
It can be said that it brought together the right timing, the right location, and the right people.
Such a good opportunity is hard to come by again.
'We can only wait patiently for an opportunity to collect those materials.'
Fortunately, considering its current quality, its power is quite good.
'It was a great help to me.'
Ling Pengyun was quite content.
Then, with a touch of curiosity, he used the power of this treasure, along with the Morning Gourd and the Nine Heavens Thunder Banner—three special fifth-grade superior natal spiritual treasures—to unleash the Great Divine Power of the Pine Tree, Morning Gourd, and Thunder Dragon.
In the blink of an eye, a wisp of natural power from the ancient pine, along with the morning glow and precious fire, and thunder from the heavens, suddenly emerged and transformed into a powerful phantom of a dragon.
It even possesses the power of being 70% of the Nascent Soul stage.
'From this perspective, the Pine Tree Pearl has been quite helpful to this great supernatural power, at least doubling its power.'
'That's not bad.'
"Moreover, with that spiritual treasure and that great divine power as my aid, I estimate that I now have the opportunity to clash with a Nascent Soul Perfection expert."
Ling Pengyun was completely satisfied, and a broad smile immediately spread across his face.
It should be noted that a Nascent Soul cultivator at the peak of their cultivation level is considered an extremely powerful being, whether in the Heavenly River Realm or the Ancient Ghost Realm.
To be able to exchange blows with him is rare, far beyond what ordinary cultivators can accomplish.
In addition, there is this treasure, as well as the Morning Gourd, the Nine Heavens Thunder Banner, the Five Elements Treasures River, the Black Dragon Armor, and the Netherworld Blade.
He now possesses as many as six fifth-grade high-quality spiritual treasures.
This kind of spiritual treasure is truly extraordinary, even surpassing the spiritual treasures of many established top-tier Nascent Soul factions.
And this is the foundation of his strength.
That's why he valued those treasures so much.
He often used his spiritual energy to nurture those treasures.
In terms of quality, the strongest is the Netherworld Blade, which is only one step away from being a top-grade fifth-tier weapon.
However, it is somewhat troublesome for him to cross this realm. It is difficult to do this with spiritual energy alone, and he will also need the help of a large number of fifth-grade top-quality spatial treasures.
However... such treasures are extremely rare.
Even the peerless genius of the ancient ghost realm who forged this treasure years ago spent countless years searching the entire ancient ghost realm but could not find it. (End of this chapter)
