Demon Taming: Start by synthesizing a Lantern Ghost with Divine and Demonic Talents

Chapter 246, Part 245: Deep Blue, Deep Blue

According to Fang Ming's memory, Wan Gui Sea Market was a maritime market organized by Wan Gui Lianhuan Immortal Island in recent centuries, and the market had all kinds of goods.

Many local cultivation factions will take the spiritual herbs, spiritual resources, and other materials they have collected to the maritime market for sale.

As the reputation of Haishi grew, it attracted overseas cultivation forces, and even sea creatures.

Immortal cultivators from all the major and minor spiritual islands within a radius of tens of thousands of miles can buy and sell magical treasures, spiritual artifacts, and magical implements at this market. Even countries from overseas come to the market to purchase goods. Some emperors of mortal empires will even send fleets, braving endless dangers, to the Wan Gui Sea Market in search of elixirs of immortality and spiritual herbs.

Li Chunfeng had heard some myths and legends in his previous life, such as the First Emperor building ships to sail the seas in search of elixirs of immortality, only to end up with nothing.

Such things actually happen in this world.

Although their emperors might actually be able to obtain the elixir of immortality, crossing the Guixu Sea would undoubtedly be far more risky than for the First Emperor.

However, this also reflects the backwardness of this world.

Li Chunfeng was attracted to the mirage entirely because of the "Kunpeng Blood".

Moreover, this is a world of Qi cultivation, and he is unable to break through to the Golden Core realm because of limited resources.

If we could obtain a batch of high-grade source stones, or even pills for Nascent Soul formation, that would be even better.

Wan Gui Island is protected by its own array, and the only way to enter and exit is through the reserved passage.

However, this formation was useless against Li Chunfeng, who had the assistance of a pre-heavenly array plate.

The Heavenly Rank - Invisibility of Will, coupled with the superhuman divine soul pressure, allowed Li Chunfeng to conceal his aura extremely well.

so.

When outsiders enter the Guixu Sea and emit their aura, attracting local sea monsters, there are ways to avoid this.

Li Chunfeng, disguised as Fang Ming, swaggered into the island.

He unleashed his divine senses, scanning the entire island.

"Huh, this place is filled with auspicious energy, and it even has the effect of shielding perception. What kind of place is this?"

The more heavily guarded a place is, the more likely it is to attract thieves.

Li Chunfeng could not stay for long and would inevitably have to do some immoral things.

With a flicker, he instantly teleported from the void into an unfamiliar place.

Looking around, he found himself in a sealed space, with walls made of copper and iron, and layers of arrays and restrictions inside, like a maze.

If someone with slightly weaker abilities rashly barges in, they risk losing their mind and spirit!

Li Chunfeng, being a student of the Kunlun Academy of Array Dao, realized that the array here was extraordinary.

He immediately summoned his array plate magic treasure, a primordial array plate named "Deep Blue".

The innate array plate needs to be nurtured; the more arrays it contains, the more powerful it becomes.

Furthermore, through the special method of the "Cantongqi", the array plate is nurtured with the power of the soul, thus giving birth to its own array plate spirit.

It's equivalent to having your own artificial intelligence.

By then.

Only then can it truly possess the power of an innate array plate.

Li Chunfeng also had high expectations for his Deep Blue Formation.

In his spare time, he also carved over a hundred first-order formations.

His plan was to first solidify the foundation of the deep blue color scheme.

With his fifth-order divine soul realm, the twelfth-grade Black Lotus Technique, and divine soul power comparable to a seventh-order divine soul, engraving a first-order array should have been very easy for him.

Unfortunately, his knowledge was limited, and even with the notes given to him by the dean, he had only managed to carve a little over a hundred questions so far.

Now that we've come across such a treasure trove of formations, of course we should replicate it.

He guessed that this secret room might be the treasure vault of the fifth-tier being on the island.

The Nascent Soul Realm expert on the island is named Heavenly Mystery God.

In this world of Guixu Sea, the Nascent Soul Realm is already the pinnacle of Qi Refining. One further step and one can ascend to the Upper Realm.

This Heavenly Mystery God is famous in Guixu Sea for his array formations, and he has great confidence in his array formation skills.

Who could have imagined that an anomaly like Li Chunfeng would suddenly appear?

Li Chunfeng immediately summoned the Deep Blue Array.

To prevent any accidents, the Dean's Innate Array Plate was also activated, surrounding all the great arrays from the outside to prevent any disturbances.

At the same time, the somersault cloud flew out, transforming into colorful smoke and mist that permeated the entire area.

The Somersault Cloud possesses most of the functions of the transformation magic treasure Taiyi Five Smoke Net. When released, it is only a beautiful five-colored cloud of smoke, which can be made to any size at will. It is not afraid of any kind of magic treasures or flying swords, and can protect the body. When necessary, it can also trap people.

Even if the formation is indeed triggered, the power of the burst can be neutralized within the Somersault Cloud.

After completing all the preparations, they immediately went into the main hall.

"Good formation!"

Layer upon layer of formations were linked together, including reconnaissance, attack, defense, concealment, illusion, communication, and combination. The formations were peeled away layer by layer, and then the individual used their divine soul to imprint them into the deep blue.

Wandering through it, each floor is like a palace, extremely complex.

He immediately used his spiritual power to charge forward, breaking through hundreds of great formations in succession, and charged all the way to the bottom with unstoppable momentum!
The array within this hall is extraordinary, but unfortunately, it is uncontrolled and, under the high-level shroud of the innate array plate, it cannot exert its power at all.

They were all completely under the impact of Li Chunfeng's powerful thoughts!

It also completely imprinted Li Chunfeng's soul mark and copied it into the deep blue.

This imprint of one's soul and thoughts is almost identical to one's own engraving, and equally firm.

"Goodness, how come there are so many powerful formations!"

He sensed that the Heavenly Mystery Divine Lord was also refining an array treasure (similar to an innate array plate).

Nine hundred and ninety-nine formations have been replicated in a row. Only the most core formation is missing before it can be transformed into a formation treasure!
Unfortunately, this core formation requires a higher level of expertise to set it up.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for it to transform into a treasure array.

Even so, it is already a hall of top-grade array artifacts.

"To refine a grand hall into a magical array—I must say, the idea is brilliant. With the hall as the array, it combines offense and defense, increasing its power tenfold!"

Li Chunfeng had to re-examine the hall, and after a long while, he curled his lip.

The materials used seemed exquisite, but from the perspective of someone in the Earthly Realm, they appeared too cluttered and lacked refinement. Even if forged into a powerful array for the main hall, it wouldn't be durable. He could shatter it with a single punch. To him, it was like a useless burden.

The more arrays a treasure has, the greater the probability of forming spiritual restrictions and treasure restrictions, and only then can it potentially become an Earthly Fiend Treasure.

However, ordinary materials cannot withstand the operation of multiple large arrays.

This grand hall can accommodate 999 different arrays, which is already its limit.

Li Chunfeng broke through the hall's defenses, and everything inside was now open to him.

Looking around, it's dazzling with jewels and radiating a captivating aura.

"You've struck it rich!"

The first one is Originium.

The number of high-grade source stones has exceeded one million, and the number of mid-grade source stones is even more staggering.

As a powerful figure and businessman, the Celestial Mystery Lord possessed numerous businesses. The Wan Gui Island, which he guarded, was a bustling hub of trade. His collection, accumulated over thousands of years, contained countless treasures.

"Only by robbing someone can one say that the trip was worthwhile."

In addition, there were rows of shelves displaying medicinal pills.

Li Chunfeng grabbed with his large hand, and immediately more than a dozen large purple-gold gourds flew out.

These large purple-gold gourds, each more than a person tall, are all filled with elixirs.

"Good heavens, these are fifth-tier Nascent Soul Transformation Pills! Each gourd contains three hundred pills. Ten gourds would be three thousand pills!"

Li Chunfeng sniffed it and immediately felt the immortal pure golden core energy rapidly growing on his golden core.

These elixirs must have been made from over a hundred kinds of medicinal herbs that had been refined over a period of at least five hundred years, and their quality was exceptionally high.

Even in the Earthly Realm, it's not possible to find a fifth-grade pill with such ample ingredients.

We can't afford the supply.

Li Chunfeng grabbed another jade medicine pot, casually wiped it, and after a series of crackling sounds, broke the restriction.

Open the lid and pour out a pill.

This pill, about the size of a broad bean, exudes a fragrant aroma. Six fine lines, each resembling a pill's pattern, adorn its surface. Its medicinal properties are extremely potent.

He couldn't tell what kind of elixir it was for the time being, and his 'insight' was also a question mark.

After obtaining the elixir, Li Chunfeng continued to venture deeper into the area.

A sharp, sword-like aura rushed towards me.

"Sizzle~"

Tiandu and Xinghe responded to the attack and extinguished all the incoming sword energy.

They were all swords.

The outer array loosened, causing the flying swords inside to break through the restrictions and burst out, flying around the hall. There were a total of 360 swords!
"Huh, this is also a large formation!"

Li Chunfeng carefully examined the area and discovered that the main hall contained a high-level sword formation.

These 360 ​​flying swords are the weapons used to set up this sword formation.

Li Chunfeng scanned the area with his divine sense and discovered a fragmented sword formation diagram on a pitch-black sword tablet.

[Heavenly Sword Formation Diagram: Sixth-Order Sword Formation, Incomplete.]

Unfortunately, it's not complete.

However, the Earthly Realm has no shortage of such incomplete formations. Take them back and hand them over to exchange for Dao merit.

The Void Handprint Seal was so powerful that no matter how many hundreds of swords flew around, they couldn't break through it.

Continuing the search, they found the third-floor hall filled with numerous precious materials.

With a "buzzing" sound, the Chaotic Ancient Demon Axe, which had been nurtured in the dantian, began to vibrate.

"Could it be that there are materials for upgrading?"

Li Chunfeng followed his senses and walked over.

The Chaotic Ancient Demon Axe is only a third-tier divine weapon, yet it already uses rare materials such as "Black Demon Iron" and "God-Slaying Steel".

He put in a lot of effort to save it up.

Upgrading to Tier 4 requires "Tiankui Subway", "Dihu Gold", and "Five Qi True Steel"!
Upgrading to Tier 5 requires "Myriad Iron" and "Mushroom Golden Sand".

Upgrading to the sixth tier requires "Seven-Colored Divine Stone", "Nine Heavens Meteorite Iron", and "Eight Extremes Demon Bone"!
Some of these materials are really hard to find in the Earthly Realm.

It could be because the names are different and need to be tested one by one, or it could be that there is no such name at all.

Li Chunfeng stopped in front of a piece of stubborn iron riddled with holes, and said, "Mind's Eye!"
[Nine Heavens Meteorite Iron, Sixth-Order Spirit Iron!]

"found it."

Li Chunfeng was overjoyed and took the lead in putting the piece of Nine Heavens Meteorite Iron into his fingernail.

Subsequently, they found other precious materials such as Five Qi True Steel, Seven-Colored Divine Stone, Blood Shadow Ghost, Eight Extremes Divine Wood, and Earth Breath Soil.

These materials are all of extremely high quality.

According to Fang Ming's memories, the peak level of cultivators in Guixu Sea is only the Nascent Soul Realm.

It is clearly impossible for it to have been produced in the Guixu Sea.

Then there is only one place left—Guixu!
Li Chunfeng emptied the treasure vault, but felt a little embarrassed as he left. This was his sacred place, and he would definitely return in the future, so he couldn't go too far.

After thinking for a while, he left behind a mnemonic rhyme.

With this incantation, we should be able to neutralize the opponent's treasure.

This mantra is precisely the key to breaking through from the Nascent Soul stage to the Void Refinement stage; it is, of course, a secret of the path of the soul.

The secret is absolutely genuine; whether the other person can grasp it depends entirely on the individual.

Li Chunfeng left the treasure vault.

The white-haired Taoist priest, who was sitting in a grand hall on the highest peak of Wan Gui Island, suddenly frowned and awoke from his seclusion. "What's wrong? Why do you seem so restless?"

At his level, once he gets the urge, it won't be a trivial matter.

"Could it be that those few sea monsters are up to some kind of trouble again?"

Tianji took out a set of counting rods and calculated for a long time, becoming increasingly uneasy.

I might as well go out of the customs and take a walk.

Without notifying his disciples or followers, he disguised himself as an ordinary person and quickly walked around the island.

It was discovered that all businesses on the island were operating normally.

Nothing unusual was found.

So where does the problem lie?

"Ah, which damned bastard stole my treasure!"

Suddenly, a pitiful scream echoed through the void, heard throughout the entire island.

His voice was so shrill and tragic that even Tianji felt sorry for him.

"It's Wan Caishen from Haishi Auction House, what's this old man yelling about?"

In a flash, Tianji had already entered the auction house.

Then they saw that Wan Caishen, who was usually so glamorous and imposing wherever he went, was now looking utterly dejected, with not a trace of the demeanor of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. He was covered in snot and tears, looking like a beggar from the marketplace.

"Old Wan, what's going on?"

"Damn thief! Give me back my hard-earned money! Give me back my Kunpeng blood!" Wan Caishen howled again. But when he saw the person's face clearly, he suddenly trembled and rushed forward to hug Tianji's leg, crying and wailing, "Divine Lord! Divine Lord! You must do justice for me! My life savings have all been stolen by that damned guy! He's utterly inhuman!"

Tianji frowned; he had always loved cleanliness.

Instinctively, he wanted to throw the filthy old thief away, but since the old thief was one of his own men and looked so pitiful, he softened and let him go.

He shouted coldly, "Get up and speak! What kind of talk is this, crying and wailing!"

After a long while, Wan Caishen finally explained the reason for the matter.

It turned out that he was robbed while he was in seclusion cultivating.

Wan Caishen is a man whose heavenly secrets are clearer than anyone else's, and because of his cultivation techniques, he values ​​wealth as much as life itself.

Most of their wealth and possessions were carried with them.

How could someone possibly drug him and steal things while he was in seclusion?

Approaching a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, they stealthily stole his personal storage magic treasure.

"How can this be?"

"Any clues?" Tianji asked.

Then the God of Wealth remembered something, "The thief not only openly stole things, but also provocatively left a note. Please take a look, God."

He pulled out a stone tablet he couldn't understand. It was covered with writing, like tadpoles.

"Huh? It's actually a cultivation method for the soul."

The more I look at it, the more mysterious and unfathomable it seems.

"hiss--"

Tianji gasped, "Old Wan, I'll take this stone tablet."

"Ah." The God of Wealth wasn't stupid. He had only been grieving the loss of his treasure and hadn't realized what was happening yet. Now, seeing Tianji's expression, how could he not know that this was a treasure?

I'd never do it.

Then they began to argue with the heavenly secrets.

In the end, Tianji succeeded; after all, he was a Nascent Soul cultivator.

But when I picked up the stone tablet, the sense of loss became even more profound.

"wrong!"

He finally remembered something and rushed to his family's treasure vault.

After a long pause, "Ah—"

An immense pressure instantly enveloped the entire island.

All living things on the island trembled with fear.
