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

Chapter 410 Not Enough

Before he even started refining it, he had already thought that if he used different immortal materials to refine the Limitless Dao Disc, nurture a deity, and nurture it into a semi-immortal artifact.

Because each of them possesses imperial weapons and divine beings, and their materials are different, even though the Dao they embody all originates from them, the Dao and principles they ultimately intertwine will certainly be different.

Then, it will probably not be easy to fuse the twelve Wuji Dao Discs, which are not very related, into a celestial artifact. Moreover, a celestial artifact can only have one deity. We can't let the twelve deities fight and devour each other until only one is left, can we?

But now it's different. The twelve Wuji Dao Discs are all the same imperial weapon and divine beings, and their energy is connected.

If they are nurtured together for thousands of years, allowing them to blend and influence each other, the imperial weapons and deities can be directly unified after thousands of years. Moreover, since their energies are already connected and intertwined, and with the imperial weapons and deities acting as a bridge, it will be much easier to completely integrate the twelve immortal materials.

After a moment of contemplation, Li Daoming did not immediately send the twelve Wuji Dao Discs to Wandao Star for nurturing. Instead, he absorbed them into his body and nurtured them with his own essence, energy, and spirit.

He planned to nurture it within his body for several decades to strengthen his connection with the twelve Limitless Dao Discs before sending it to the Myriad Dao Star for further nurturing.

Immediately afterwards, Li Daoming took out the Nine Directions Immortal Gold and used the same method to refine the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram.

In just five or six years, Li Daoming successfully refined the Nine Directions Immortal Gold, transforming it into the Supreme Emperor Weapon Yin Yang Tai Chi Diagram. The Ten Directions Yin Yang Tai Chi Diagrams were interconnected and were also absorbed and nurtured within Li Daoming's body.

At this moment, Li Daoming paused slightly, but did not immediately make a move. He used the Supreme Immortal Gold to refine the Limitless Emperor Sword.

Because he was running out of Supreme Immortal Gold.

Actually, it's not that bad to say there aren't enough to forge eight supreme imperial weapons.

However, it is indeed not enough to forge eight supreme imperial weapons using the same supreme immortal gold from eight directions.

He obtained nearly ten cubic meters of immortal gold from Wushi, along with the divine trace purple gold ore from the Chaos Immortal Land he discovered with Wushi, and the immortal gold he accumulated over the years traveling the universe and the Wuji Holy Court, totaling about eleven cubic meters.

They killed eighteen supreme beings, and the fragments of their ancient imperial weapons and the accumulated immortal gold amounted to nearly fifteen cubic meters.

The reason there are so few is that some fragments of ancient imperial weapons had their divinity destroyed by him, turning them into mortals and making them unusable.

Moreover, not every Celestial Venerable Ancient Emperor can find a piece of immortal gold to refine their weapon. Some may find immortal gold, but the amount is far from enough to refine an ancient emperor weapon.

That is to say, they all have some accumulated immortal gold in their hands; otherwise, relying solely on the fragments of ancient imperial weapons, they might not even have ten thousand units of it.

In addition to the Immortal Tear Green Gold Mine and the Immortal Tear Green Gold Holy Spirit from the Undying Mountain, there are approximately twenty cubic meters of Immortal Gold.

In other words, he possesses approximately forty units of the Supreme Immortal Gold.

This is a terrifying number, enough to make all the celestial beings, ancient emperors, and great rulers of the past and present blush with shame.

Even the incredibly wealthy and ruthless Empress Wu Zetian couldn't compare to him.

However, nearly forty units of immortal gold were still not enough for him.

The Wuji Dao Disc and the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram together used up twenty-one units of Immortal Gold, and the Wuji Emperor Sword has already used up one unit of Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold, leaving only about eighteen units.

With eighteen portions of immortal gold, it should be easy to use eight portions to forge the Limitless Emperor Sword.

However, he only had more than two of each of the Divine Mark Purple Gold, Immortal Tear Green Gold, Bright White Gold, and Feathered Azure Gold left, totaling nearly eleven. The rest of the Immortal Gold, except for the Dragon Pattern Black Gold, were less than one unit each.

He simply couldn't produce eight types of immortal metals that reached the highest level to forge the Limitless Emperor Sword. Of course, if reaching the highest level wasn't required, and he only needed enough to forge one supreme emperor weapon, then he would have enough immortal metal for eighteen, let alone eight.

After pondering for a moment, Li Daoming decided to give up on forging the Wuji Emperor Sword.

Firstly, he prefers quality over quantity; he doesn't really value supreme imperial weapons or immortal artifacts forged from the nine types of immortal metals available in the region.

Secondly, he felt that the Wuji Dao Disc was sufficient for assisting in enlightenment and cultivation, and the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram was enough for combat; having an additional Wuji Emperor Sword would not be of much use.

In fact, since he forged the Wuji Emperor Sword, he has only used it in battle a handful of times. He relies more on Taoist magic and his fists. Although he is proficient in swordsmanship, he is not used to using it.

Thirdly, he did not have enough immortal gold in his possession if he really forged the Limitless Emperor Sword.

In fact, he didn't have more than eighteen units of immortal gold in his possession. Not to mention eighteen units, he didn't even have fourteen units, because some of the immortal gold had already been used for other purposes.

Li Wuhen and Li Wuyou both used immortal gold as the material for forging their artifacts, and there was a whole cubic meter of it. The immortal materials for forging their artifacts were all provided by him.

Xia Qinghuang, Jiang Qianxi, Xin Hua, and Kong Lin also used immortal gold as the material for forging their artifacts. Although they didn't use a single unit, they still used a total of two units, which he also provided.

In reality, he only had less than fourteen units of immortal gold left in his hand.

Furthermore, if you don't want to ruin the four immortal gold veins, you must at least keep half a cubic meter of immortal gold as a foundation.

Thus, he only had less than twelve units of immortal gold left to use.

Nearly twelve units of immortal gold may seem like a lot, but for the Boundless Holy Court, it is not considered a large amount.

Because the Wuji Holy Court has too many powerful individuals!

Currently, the Wuji Holy Court has twelve individuals who have attained enlightenment through unconventional means, and twelve who are on the verge of enlightenment.

Before long, Ziwei, Lingxi, and the other six women will also be able to break through to achieve enlightenment through alternative paths with his help.

In addition, of the six who are about to attain enlightenment, including Yang Cheng, Shen Zun, and Tian Long, three are about to break through to the alternative path to enlightenment. As for the remaining three, it cannot be said that they will definitely break through to the alternative path to enlightenment in the future, but there is at least a 60% or 70% chance that they will.

Aside from these, although the Wuji Holy Court does not have many more exceptionally talented individuals who are expected to reach the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor or even achieve Dao in an unconventional way, there may be some in the future.

However, among these people, apart from Li Wuhen, Li Wuyou, Xia Qinghuang, Jiang Qianxi, Xin Hua, and Kong Lin, none of them had enough Extreme Dao Immortal Gold to forge artifacts.

It's enough to reach the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor, but it's far from sufficient for alternative paths to enlightenment, or even for proving one's Dao and becoming an Emperor.

He planned to open up the myriad paths of heaven and earth in the future, so that they could prove their Dao and become emperors. He couldn't let them not even have a single supreme imperial weapon after they proved their Dao, could he?
Even if he could ignore Yang Cheng, the Divine Lord, and others, he couldn't ignore his woman!
If he were to use several more units of supreme immortal gold to forge the Limitless Emperor Sword, then there would truly be no more immortal gold left for them to refine weapons.

If there were a need to forge the Wuji Emperor Sword, he would definitely prioritize his own needs, but he felt there was no need to forge it.

Even if he had enough immortal gold, he most likely wouldn't forge the Wuji Emperor Sword into an immortal artifact.

He might forge two more immortal artifacts, one corresponding to his Chaos Dao Fruit and the other to his World Dao Fruit.
