Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

Chapter 275 The Ruyi Whisk and the Gluttonous Refining Secret Realm

At that time, he felt as if it were a real object. Now that his Heavenly Soul has been refined into his Primordial Spirit, Gu Qing's connection with the Cangwu Realm has been severed. Apart from the karma brought about by his cultivation, he has actually transcended this realm.

It has acquired the qualifications to cross realms in the void.

As for the claim that cross-realm qualifications need to be acquired, it is indeed true. For example, after a cultivator from the Cangwu Realm practices the [Ascension Path] and passes away, he returns to the heavens, and the surrounding environment of the Ascension Path is of great benefit to the world.

In this situation, if you use the power you obtained from the Cangwu Realm to deliver packages to other worlds, the Heavenly Dao will definitely not allow it.

This is how the concepts of thresholds and qualifications came about.

The reason why cultivators need to undergo tribulations to break through realms also stems from this, but Heaven cannot bring itself to kill them, and will always leave a chance for all living beings.

Until the Ascension Tribulation, they will truly go all out to kill you.

You are about to leave forever. Your cultivation is all derived from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and from the essence of heaven and earth. It would be a great loss not to leave it behind.

Of course, the Way of Heaven has no self; it simply instinctively transforms everything into things that are beneficial to the world, so that it can become stronger and stronger, which is the instinct to pursue profit.

"As for this whisk..."

Upon closer inspection, the three thousand whisk threads are pure white, and feel like the tentacles of some kind of mythical beast. The shaft is gilded, with a real dragon coiled around it, and at the end is a bright yellow bead with a faint dragon aura.

"Could it be made from dragon pearls, dragon bones, and dragon whiskers?"

Infuse with magical power and refine with your primordial spirit.

The information about the whisk quickly took root in Gu Qing's mind, and his pupils contracted.

"A Ruyi whisk, a top-grade magic weapon?!"

Just as he had guessed, they were all made of genuine dragon materials, containing four kinds of divine power patterns: [Summoning Wind and Rain], [Riding the Clouds and Mist], [World-Destroying Flood], and [Summoning Tribulation Lightning].

Top-grade magic treasures are among the best in the entire Cangwu cultivation world, and only a handful of people possess them.

The next step is the pinnacle of this realm: the Heavenly Treasure!

Each of these extraordinary treasures represents the foundation of a clan and is rarely seen except in critical moments.

Therefore, top-grade magic weapons are almost the pinnacle of ordinary combat and control artifacts.

This unexpected gain brought a smile to Gu Qing's face, and she could hardly contain herself.

But how did Tianhun obtain this thing?
No matter how you calculate it, it doesn't make sense unless the treasure was already compatible with him when he was born, or it's something like a companion spirit treasure.

Gu Qing pondered for a moment.

I'll store it in my dantian. The way this treasure came about is strange. Maybe I'll find something by checking the ancient history.

Back to topic.

After a breakthrough in cultivation, the next challenge is how to initially integrate essence, qi, and spirit to form a minor Dao fruit.

The Nine-Nine Mysterious Technique contains a description of the secret method for condensing Dao Fruit, but it takes a very long time. For example, Lian Chutiangong spent hundreds of years studying the secret method of the furnace in order to break through, and he gained an opportunity through the breakthrough of his craftsmanship to condense a minor Dao Fruit.

The breakthrough method of the Nine-Nine Mysterious Technique is called the "Infant Transformation and Divine Metamorphosis Method". Its principle is to take the primordial spirit as the base, leave the Niwan Palace, and enter the middle dantian Qi Sea.

The manifestation of Qi, or magical power, is refined into the primordial spirit.

The essence of [Divine Dawn] is refined into the primordial spirit.

When the three treasures meet, they borrow the threefold duality of the three levels of cultivation to gather essence, qi, and spirit, allowing them to initially merge and give birth to the power of creation and yin-yang.

Ultimately, a nascent soul core forms within the primordial spirit, known as the "Minor Dao Fruit."

Everything is interconnected, and things take their natural course.

However, Gu Qing faces a unique challenge: his vital energy is too strong, and the Yin-Yang pattern he has cultivated to the third rank may not be enough.

His extraordinary combat power comes not only from magical treasures and supernatural abilities, but also from his foundation, which far surpasses the level expected of this realm. It's quite normal that ordinary breakthrough methods are no longer applicable to him.

"Therefore, if I want to break through, it is best to use the pressure of the external environment to try to restrain my energy and spirit."

"Too much of a good thing can be bad; you must find the right balance, or you risk self-destruction."

"Perhaps we can borrow the power of the formation."

After clearing her mind, Gu Qing refocused her attention on the outside world.

Count with your fingers.

Although it seemed like only a short time had passed since I entered the Nine Heavens, in reality, almost half a year had already gone by. In places like this, which are more spiritual, the passage of time is somewhat different.

It is widely believed among mortals that one day in heaven is equivalent to one year on earth.

This refers to the situation in the Nine Heavens. Of course, the actual flow of time cannot be summarized in a single sentence, and the details are more complex.

On the stone platform at the top of the Qizu Pagoda.

The refining of the Taotie head is nearing completion. Refining a secret realm may seem simple and feasible, but it is actually not easy at all. Without the Devouring Technique and the Taotie head, Gu Qing has no chance of refining it.

Even so, it is only at the initial stage of refining.

By incorporating the Jinyun Secret Realm into the Void Land within the Taotie Head, Gu Qing can refine it over the years, requiring only the provision of magical power.

In a hundred or two hundred years, once you become the master of the secret realm, you can change many settings and rules at will, truly owning your own little world, which you can carry with you wherever you go.

It's really comfortable.

After staying there for another half month, the Taotie, now feeling "heavy," returned to the Niwan Palace and quietly stayed in a corner, silently deepening the process of refining.

Gu Qing was now able to free up his hands to explore the southern part of the island.

The buildings in the south were likely built ten thousand years ago when the Jinyun people fled to the Yan state. The architectural style is quite different from what we see today.

A few buildings have collapsed, but some treasures remain in the alchemy room and artifact room.

But what Gu Qing values ​​most here is the inheritance of the Scripture Pavilion!
The Taoist canon contains tens of thousands of volumes and countless books on supernatural powers.

Furthermore, there are the unique secret methods of the Jinyun clan, especially those related to weapon crafting. After discovering this place, Gu Qing was like a mouse entering a granary.

His knowledge base accumulated rapidly, and he even discovered the complete lineage of the "Jinyun Artifact Ancestor Method". After sorting it out from the beginning, the art of metal and stone artifacts, the art of plant and wood artifacts, and the art of blood and bone artifacts were integrated into one, gradually becoming indistinguishable from one another.

Next, let's look at the reserves of the instrument points.

Over the years, the Golden Stone Bottle has become a magical artifact manufacturing machine, having devoured countless gold and stones, and producing a considerable number of magical artifacts.

It was so powerfully amplified by this precious energy that it was about to advance to the next level.

With a vast reserve of artifact points, Gu Qing simply used this opportunity to develop techniques, even using the Heavenly Longevity Calculation to deduce magic weapon blueprints. He based his calculations on the equipment he possessed, adapting to local conditions to find suitable magic weapon blueprints.

In terms of supplementary cultivation methods, he also found a large number of suitable strategies in the Jinyun family's library.

Find a suitable basic one, and then integrate it with the [Ziwei Qi-Gathering Strategy] to create something new.

This consumes a tremendous amount of life force.

With the triple consumption of cultivation techniques, supernatural powers, and magical treasures, decades of accumulation gradually transformed into new potential, and the foundation became increasingly profound.

A year and a half has passed.

Gu Qing, whose aura was constantly expanding and then drying up, seemed to have experienced a great calamity of life and death, and his eyes were exceptionally calm.

"My lifespan has fluctuated so much that it has given me some insight into the principles of life, death, prosperity, and decline. This is truly an unexpected joy."
