The Heaven-shattering: I and Wu Shi compete for the throne

Chapter 409 The Twelve Limitless Dao Discs
After leaving the pass, Li Daoming tested the new dual cultivation method with Xia Qinghuang and the other women. He was not in a hurry to cultivate with Ziwei, Lingxi and the other six women alone to help them achieve a different kind of enlightenment.

The difference between the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor and the alternative path to enlightenment is only half a step, but they are worlds apart.

Even with his full assistance, it would still take them at least several to ten years to break through; for all six of them combined, it would take several decades.

He felt it was best to first refine twenty-four supreme imperial weapons, transform Myriad Dao Star, Undying Mountain, and Divine Ruins, nurture numerous supreme imperial weapons, and then help them break through to achieve alternative paths to enlightenment.

Li Daoming arrived at the Fire Domain of the Boundless Star Domain. With a thought, a "whoosh" sounded, and eight kinds of immortal gold appeared in front of him, namely Dragon Pattern Black Gold, Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold, Crimson Sun Orange Gold, Dao Tribulation Gold, Immortal Tear Green Gold, Feather Transformation Azure Gold, Eternal Blue Gold, and Radiant White Gold.

These eight types of immortal metals, along with the immortal materials used for forging the Wuji Dao Disc and the Divine Mark Purple Gold, constitute the nine traditional immortal metals of the Shrouding the Heavens world.

Although it is possible to forge an ultimate imperial weapon without needing any immortal gold.

However, the more immortal gold a supreme imperial weapon contains, the deeper its foundation, and the more and stronger the Dao and principles it can bear.

He valued the Wuji Dao Disc the most, so naturally he wanted to give it the most.

Even if he had enough immortal gold left to refine the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram and the Wuji Emperor Sword, he would rather wait longer and collect more immortal gold than reduce his supply.

Having taken out the Immortal Gold, Li Daoming was about to begin refining eight Limitless Dao Discs.

"Boom!" The myriad paths of heaven and earth descended, blazing fiercely in the fire domain. The myriad true fires surged even more violently. At this moment, the boundless power of heaven and earth gathered and intertwined with the myriad true fires, transforming into a furnace of heaven and earth.

It wasn't over yet. Another fusion of the myriad paths of heaven and earth evolved into the perfect Chaos Dao. At this moment, the void cracked open, and immeasurable chaotic energy surged in, combining with the Chaos Dao to form a Chaos Cauldron.

The Chaos Cauldron merged with the Furnace of Heaven and Earth, evolving into a Yin-Yang Dao Furnace.

"Whoosh!" Li Daoming waved his hand, and the Eight Directions Immortal Gold, suspended in the void, was about to rush into the Yin-Yang Dao Furnace together.

However, at this moment, as if he had thought of something, Li Daoming paused, and the Eight Directions Immortal Gold also remained in the void.

With a "whoosh!" sound, two more pieces of immortal gold and several pieces of ancient tea tree trunks from the Enlightenment Era appeared, standing alongside the eight pieces of immortal gold.

In the world of Shrouding the Heavens, there is a saying of nine kinds of immortal metals, but it is not true that there are only nine kinds of immortal metals that can be used to forge supreme imperial weapons.

In fact, there are far more than nine types; he felt that doubling the number would be more appropriate.

Examples include the Primordial Qi of All Things, the Immortal Marrow of Chaos, the Immortal Metal of the Five Elements, the Immortal Metal of the Great Luo, the Immortal Metal of the Void, the Immortal Metal of Darkness, the Immortal Metal of Taiyin, the Immortal Treasure Black Iron, the World Stone, the trunk of the Ancient Tree of Life, the trunk of the Fusang Tree...

Although these are not among the traditional nine types of immortal metals, they can all be used to forge supreme imperial weapons.

Moreover, the ultimate imperial weapons forged from these immortal metals are no weaker than the nine great immortal metals, and some are even superior to ordinary ultimate immortal metals, such as the Mother Qi of All Things and the Immortal Marrow of Chaos...

To forge a celestial artifact, you don't actually need nine kinds of celestial metals. If the person forging it is strong enough and there is enough celestial metal, one kind is enough.

However, the more immortal metal used, and the more completely fused the immortal metal, the deeper the foundation of the immortal artifact, and naturally, the stronger it will be.

Therefore, he felt that nine kinds of immortal gold were too few, so he simply gathered twelve kinds and used the trunk of the ancient tea tree he had previously chopped down.

The ultimate imperial weapon crafted from the trunk of the Enlightened Ancient Tea Tree is certainly not as powerful or durable as other immortal metals, but its enlightenment effect is more suitable for the Limitless Dao Disc.

Moreover, having used so much immortal metal to forge an immortal artifact, even if its primary function is to aid in enlightenment and enhance comprehension, its offensive and defensive capabilities would certainly be exceptional. As for why he didn't simply use all eighteen types, he had actually considered it, but he wasn't wealthy enough for that.

Of the immortal metals he possessed besides the nine great immortal metals, only the Dark Immortal Metal, the Five Elements Immortal Metal, and the Void Immortal Metal exceeded one level; the others were all insufficient. He even had none of the Chaos Immortal Marrow or the Mother Qi of All Things.

Moreover, the more immortal gold used, the more difficult it becomes to completely fuse them into one.

He was confident that he could unlock the profound mysteries of all twelve kinds of immortal materials and completely fuse them into one, but he might not be able to do so with eighteen kinds.

He gently shook his head and threw the eleven kinds of immortal materials into the Yin-Yang Dao Furnace. The terrifying Yin-Yang Dao Fire ignited, simultaneously refining the eleven kinds of immortal materials.

Soon, in less than a day, the eleven kinds of immortal ingredients were transformed into eleven pools of immortal liquid.

With a thought, Li Daoming released the Wuji Dao Disc from his body and rushed into the Yin-Yang Dao Furnace.

The Yin-Yang Dao and the Three Thousand Laws Runes manifested, and the Limitless Dao Disc connected with the Eleven Beaches of Immortal Liquid.

In an instant, the principles of Yin and Yang, along with the Three Thousand Laws, intertwined and evolved with the eleven kinds of immortal ingredients.

After being tempered by the Yin-Yang Dao Fire for three full years, the Dao of Yin and Yang and the Three Thousand Laws were completely integrated with the eleven kinds of immortal materials, transforming into the eleven rough embryos of the Limitless Dao Disc.

"Slash!" Li Daoming shouted, and a peerless immortal light slashed down towards the Wuji Dao Disc God.

With a muffled groan, the immortal light emanating from the Wuji Dao Disc dimmed, and the Dao patterns on it seemed to lose their luster. Its aura plummeted, almost falling below the level of an ultimate Dao Emperor Weapon.

Upon seeing this, Li Daoming quickly poured a pool of Chaos Heavenly Emperor's blood onto the Wuji Dao Disc, using the Chaos Heavenly Emperor's blood to nourish the imperial weapon and deity that had been cut into twelve pieces.

Without further ado, Li Daoming sent out eleven fragments of imperial weapons and divine beings, which landed on eleven newly crafted, unfinished Wuji Dao Discs.

Under the tempering of the Yin-Yang Dao Fire, the fragments of the Emperor Weapon God merged with the rough embryo of the Limitless Dao Disc, becoming the god of the rough embryo of the Limitless Dao Disc.

Moreover, it was rapidly becoming complete after being nourished by the rudimentary form of the Wuji Dao Disc and the blood of the Chaos Heavenly Emperor.

Moreover, because the Primordial God of the Wuji Dao Disc was separated from the Emperor God of the Wuji Dao Disc, and because their Dao and Dharma both originated from the Wuji Dao Disc.

The eleven Wuji Dao Disc prototypes are connected to the Qi of the Wuji Dao Disc, with the Wuji Dao Disc being the most revered.

The twelve Limitless Dao Discs are interconnected, their energy intertwined and influencing each other. They are being tempered by the Yin-Yang Dao Fire, nourished by their original forms and the blood of the Chaos Heavenly Emperor, and their aura is rapidly increasing.

Soon, in less than two years, the eleven rough drafts of imperial weapons were transformed into eleven complete imperial weapons.

"Good! Very good!" Looking at the twelve Wuji Dao Discs in front of him, Li Daoming nodded in satisfaction.

Although these twelve Limitless Dao Discs are only at the initial stage of Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon level, as long as they are placed on Myriad Dao Star and nurtured for several thousand years through the methods he arranged, they will definitely become semi-immortal artifacts.

The fusion of twelve semi-immortal artifacts will surely transform them into immortal artifacts, and among immortal artifacts, they will undoubtedly be among the most powerful.

Furthermore, with his current arrangements, it won't be too difficult for the twelve Limitless Dao Discs to fully integrate and unify once they grow into semi-immortal artifacts.
