Primordial Era: Starting with the repair of Penglai Immortal Island

Huanglong fully comprehended the inheritance and comprehension of low-grade spiritual artifacts to top-grade spiritual artifacts in just three years!

"Watching isn't enough; we have to take action!"

Huanglong suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of golden light appearing in them.

With a wave of his hand, several pieces of red copper flew out from the pile of spiritual materials in the cave. This was the red copper ore mother that he had traded with Senior Sister Jinling. Huanglong placed it next to the metal-attribute innate spiritual vein in the cave. After hundreds of years of evolution, it gave birth to a small innate red copper ore vein.

Huanglong decided to refine weapons this time, and since he needed these innate spiritual ores, he casually dug out several hundred pieces to use as practice.

Pieces of red copper floated in front of the yellow dragon. A wisp of true fire enveloped one of the fist-sized pieces of red copper and began to burn it. Strands of black impurities kept floating out from above the true fire. In less than a few hours, that piece of innate red copper turned into a reddish-yellow liquid.

Next, various spirit ores were smelted, and clumps of liquid formed from the smelting of various spirit ores floated in front of Huanglong. Then, it was shaped, spirit patterns were engraved, and finally, the spirit was activated, all in one go!

Looking at the low-grade spiritual weapon floating in front of me, I realized that weapon crafting is nothing more than this; anyone with hands can do it!

Low-grade, mid-grade, and high-grade spiritual artifacts were successfully crafted by Huanglong and casually tossed aside.

Everything went so smoothly, except for one obstacle for Huanglong: when refining top-grade spiritual artifacts, he didn't manage the interaction between the spiritual patterns in the first few pieces well, forcing him to create several temporary cave dwellings.

However, these were not major problems. After Huanglong changed to his sixth cave dwelling, he successfully crafted his first top-grade spiritual weapon. With the experience of his first success, he became like a well-tuned machine tool, creating one top-grade spiritual weapon after another in his hands.

Huanglong possessed more than ten top-grade spiritual artifacts, radiating a dazzling spiritual light and exuding an air of nobility.

He was quite satisfied with the top-grade spiritual artifacts Huanglong had equipped him with.

"To possess a complete set of spirit treasures, even if they are only acquired spirit treasures, would be something to be longed for!"

After savoring a cup of Enlightenment Tea, Huanglong began to comprehend the inheritance of the crafting techniques for acquired spiritual treasures...!

One cup... two cups... three cups...!

When Huanglong was about to brew another cup of Enlightenment Tea, he reached out but found nothing. The jade box containing the tea leaves was empty, and several other jade boxes were scattered on the ground around him. Only then did Huanglong realize that he had drunk all the Enlightenment Tea he had.

"This doesn't make sense... Aren't magical artifacts something you can learn in no time?"

"Aren't acquired spiritual treasures just 'treasure' with the word 'treasure' added...? How could this be...!"

At this moment, Huang Long began to doubt whether he was a time traveler or just some ordinary Huang Long Zhenren.

Otherwise, he wouldn't even have been able to comprehend the inheritance of the lowest-grade spiritual treasures, let alone refine them!

However, aside from the more than 100,000 years of cultivation on the island, which slowed down his progress, he broke through to the late Golden Immortal realm in just a few thousand years, and even mastered the Sweet Rain Technique taught by the Azure Dragon into a supernatural power.

"This is more like it!"

Huang Long looked at the mysterious images formed by the inheritance imprinted in his mind, their obscure and incomprehensible mysteries like gaping mouths, seemingly mocking Huang Long's overestimation of his abilities.

"Calm down, calm down...!"

"The Great Dao is formless, yet it gives birth to Heaven and Earth. The Great Dao is without emotion, yet it governs the sun and moon. The Great Dao is nameless, yet it nurtures all things..."

A passage from the Pure Land Sutra that Huanglong had memorized in his previous life appeared in his mind.

As Huanglong silently recited the Pure and Tranquil Sutra, he reviewed everything he had experienced: the journey, the transformation into a dragon, the Dragon Court, Penglai Immortal Island... everything appeared in Huanglong's mind bit by bit!

As Huanglong's restless Dao heart gradually calmed down, the two drops of Creation Origin that Huanglong had almost forgotten quietly emitted a faint spiritual light, rippling in Huanglong's heart.

"The essence of creation can enhance one's innate nature and nurture the Pure White Lotus. It seems there was a reason why the Sweet Rain Technique evolved into a supernatural power!"

With a freshly picked tea leaf in his mouth, Huanglong once again began to comprehend the profound method of refining spiritual treasures. Unlike before, a drop of the Origin of Creation was suspended above his primordial spirit, and seemingly invisible specks of light floated down from above onto Huanglong's primordial spirit.

This time, those weapon-refining lineages that had previously ignored Huanglong were now revealing the true essence of refining spiritual treasures to him, as if a thick layer of veil had been removed.

The obscure and difficult inheritance was now as easy as addition and subtraction in first or second grade in Huanglong's eyes!

After Huanglong fully comprehended the materials, shaping, and most importantly, the innate spiritual restrictions for refining inferior spiritual treasures, the inheritance suddenly transformed from elementary school's one plus one into university-level advanced mathematics, forcing Huanglong to stop comprehending the inheritance.

The drop of creation essence that floated above his primordial spirit had vanished without a trace!

"It's still better to use cheats; that feeling is truly irresistible!"

Seeing that there was only one drop of the essence of creation left in his body, Huanglong Anai continued to use it.

Let's try to refine a top-grade spiritual treasure first before deciding which blade to use the last drop on.

Inside the refining cauldron of a top-grade spiritual artifact, a pagoda-shaped spiritual treasure embryo, forged from the fusion of several kinds of top-grade divine iron, was constantly rotating within the cauldron. Huang Long's mind flashed through the refining techniques of various low-grade spiritual treasures, and one after another, innate spiritual restrictions containing the laws of heaven and earth appeared.

Metal is strong and sharp, wood is ever-renewing, water is flexible and can penetrate stone, fire is violent and can burn the heavens and destroy the earth, and earth is thick and heavy and can support all things...!

Huang Long raised his hands, his ten fingers moving as fast as a phantom, forming thousands of magic seals and injecting them into the pagoda embryo. One after another, innate spiritual patterns slowly appeared inside the pagoda!

"Golden Spirit Forbidden Technique, Engraving!"

Om-!

Countless fine golden patterns within the pagoda extend and intertwine like living things, forming an extremely sharp innate spiritual barrier!

Huang Long's expression was solemn, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, which were instantly dried by the high temperature. The spiritual energy in the cave rushed towards him.

Once his magical power was restored, he formed a hand seal again, and streams of deep blue light flowed from his fingertips, sprinkling droplets onto the pagoda.

"Water Spirit Forbidden, Condense!"

laugh--!

A resilient, azure water-elemental spirit restriction materialized with difficulty amidst the energy conflict. The metal-elemental spirit restriction, which was formed first, developed a pattern that merged with the newly formed water-elemental spirit restriction. With the help of the metal-elemental spirit restriction, the water-elemental spirit restriction quickly took shape.

Huanglong paused again, absorbing innate spiritual energy to restore his magical power.

"Wood Spirit Forbidden, Live!" Streams of emerald light surged from Huanglong's fingertips, sprinkling the pagoda like spring rain.

As the emerald light merged in, the pagoda suddenly burst forth with vitality! A vibrant wood spirit barrier condensed at an even faster pace.

"Fire Spirit Restriction, complete!"

Boom—!

A crimson, pulsating fire elemental spirit appeared domineeringly at the core of the pagoda.

"Earth Spirit Forbidden, Suppress!"

A thick, solid, earthen-yellow spiritual barrier slowly took shape and gradually connected with the other four spiritual barriers.
