My talent is 1.

Lu Zifan used a low-level experience scroll, which gave him a 500x experience boost.

After everything was prepared, Lu Zifan pulled the trigger, and instantly a stream of immortal energy shot into the brow of a celestial being at an incredibly fast speed.

In an instant, the celestial being's head exploded.

It happened so fast that Bai Yu didn't even have time to react before he saw the scene of his primordial spirit dissipating.

"To be reduced to ashes?"

How is this possible? Although the immortal artifact in this kid's hand is of a high grade, he is ultimately just a human immortal, so how much power can he unleash?

But the fact is right before our eyes...

[Ding! Gained 92312.6 billion experience points. Additional 1674550564 billion experience points for defeating enemies of a higher level.]

"Holy crap...this is insane!"

Killing a Celestial Immortal grants over 16 Jing of experience points, leaving Lu Zifan speechless.

Suddenly I realized that everything I had done before, except for testing, was unnecessary.

Killing a few dozen more Celestial Immortals doesn't seem like becoming a Celestial Emperor is that difficult...

"What's wrong?" Bai Yu asked, puzzled.

Zhong Wuyai looked at the level on the panel and thought of something. The Earth Immortal realm was already two hundred levels, so what about the Heavenly Immortal realm...?

This is at least 150 levels higher than the previous level...

But in reality, the level of a Celestial Immortal is definitely not low; at the very least, they are at the level of a mid-level god.

That means you've jumped over 500 levels... How much experience would that take...?

Zhong Wuyai then sent Lu Zifan a private message to inquire...

Lu Zifan ignored it and instead calculated how much experience a Celestial Immortal would give...

With an experience scroll bonus of over 500 times, that means the base experience is 166 billion.

Of course, each celestial being gives something different.

The subsequent killing of monsters above his level... Lu Zifan was a little confused... a bonus of more than 18,000 times.

This is way too many levels above my current level, it's impossible to even calculate...

Lu Zifan glanced at the message bar, then turned to look at Zhong Wuyai…

"What's wrong?"

"That's a bit terrifying, the bonus is more than 18,000 times that of a higher level."

"Holy shit... holy shit... let me catch my breath..."

Zhong Wuyai was somewhat stunned... This was ridiculously high...

"What exactly happened?... Lu Zifan, the heatwave clearly entered your body, so how come there's no trace of it?"

Only then did the two notice that the warmth they had managed to regain had vanished again.

"Damn it... you're just like me now?"

Both of them were dumbfounded. What was going on? ...How come the kill experience...and energy was being extracted?

"It might be because the value is too high. Just like when you were in the cultivation world, my experience didn't appear out of thin air."

"It wasn't noticeable in the Nether because you didn't gain much experience each time, so the impact was minimal. But the final explosion caused so much destruction that we didn't pay attention. In fact, it had already begun then."

"So, even if I gain experience beyond the required level, will it still end up the same way?"

"Yes, the difference is that when I assign energy to something, the energy gathers there, but when you store it, your method is gentler and less likely to be noticed."

"Hiss... What about the other one... should we kill him later?"

"This is the only way."

The two were chatting privately, and Bai Yu couldn't figure out what the two kids were up to.

However, these methods are becoming increasingly bizarre.

At first, Zhong Wuyai was mobilizing immortal energy and heat, but what's wrong with Lu Zifan? His whole body is covered in water, and with so much heat on his body, isn't he afraid of it evaporating?

But Lu Zifan was completely unharmed, showing absolutely no change...

With plenty of time and no rush, the two began to repack their belongings while the heatwave subsided.

"It's happened so many times, every time plans can't keep up with changes."

"I'm used to it, but from now on, you need to speed up your cultivation. We should try not to involve other people in anything we do."

Although both of them are currently newbies in the immortal realm, it's only a matter of time before they clash with the Heavenly Dao.

On the one hand, Bai Yu had only known him for a short time, and he only helped him because of his relationship with Guan Xiangzi and Zhong Wuyai.

On the other hand, once Zhong Wuyai's cultivation level improves, Bai Yu's cultivation level will be insufficient, and following them will be very dangerous.

Let alone Bai Yu, even Guan Xiangzi would soon fall behind using their method.

Going further on, even the Celestial Emperor is useless... Does the Celestial Emperor dare to directly challenge the Heavenly Dao?

"That's about enough, we can send him on his way!"...

On a mountaintop in Yanzhou, a towering pavilion stands high in the clouds.

There are also more than a dozen pavilions of various sizes on the surrounding mountain peaks.

This is the main base of Tenglou, where thousands of immortals and wandering immortals cultivate immortality and comprehend the Dao.

Inside a small pavilion, two earth immortals lowered their heads, barely daring to breathe, sweat already beading on their foreheads.

"Alright, you two can leave now."

Tuoqiong's primordial spirit sent a message to a pavilion high above...

"Elder, half an incense stick ago, Shi Xi perished, his divine tablet shattered, and his primordial spirit did not return. Now, Shu Yang's divine tablet has also shattered, and his primordial spirit still has not returned."

"Who are these two people?"

"The two stewards on the seventh floor."

"Do you really need to bother me with something like this?"

"Elder, I am helpless. When the divine tablet shattered, no image was transmitted back, and there was absolutely no trace... It's more like... before we could even activate the restrictions within our primordial spirits, the two of us vanished in an instant, as if reduced to ashes, and even the restrictions disappeared in a flash..."

"What ordinary immortal would possess such abilities?... Could they have offended some Great Luo Golden Immortal?"

"Elder, that's even more impossible. They're just two Celestial Immortals; they're not even worthy of a Great Luo Golden Immortal's glance."

"Fine, I'll use the Divine Plate to check and get those two broken spirit tablets."

Lu Zifan took a screenshot and sent it to Zhong Wuyai.

The interface of the Universal Experience Orb is very simple; it's just a ball, only the number is now longer.

The value exceeding 42 京 was displayed in two lines.

If they disregarded the consequences and applied all that experience to a single item, the two of them could repeatedly improve their skills and actually cause a huge problem.

However, if Heaven withstands the attack, once their experience points are exhausted, the two of them will be directly eliminated.

As for what will happen to the "Universal Experience Orb" and "1", no one can guarantee.

"Continue refining pills. Before you reach the Great Luo realm, try not to attract the attention of the Heavenly Dao."

Zhong Wuyai, at the Earth Immortal realm, has an extremely fast extraction speed, making it easy for him to refine incomplete immortal pills. He can refine three or four pills at the same time.

When adding 1, Zhong Wuyai controlled the value, trying to increase it evenly and maximize the effect of the pill.

This will greatly increase your proficiency when practicing the I Ching.

For ten consecutive days, the two of them did not cause any major incidents.

Bai Yu was also aware of this. Every time the heatwave disappeared, Bai Yu would feel uneasy, fearing that the commotion would attract the attention of the Flame Phoenix Clan.

In reality, the Flame Phoenix Clan in the outskirts wouldn't bother with them at all; their meager fire energy wasn't even as much as the breath they took during a nap.

During the two transformation tribulations, a few Flame Phoenixes glanced at them, but they only looked in their direction.

The mere Transformation Tribulation was so weak that the tribulation lightning was as weak as a yawn, and it was completely ignored.

Zhong Wuyai and Lu Zifan controlled it very well. The attributes of each elixir were not high, so even though the water attribute, which is completely opposite to fire, doubled the fire consumption, the heat wave consumed was still about the same as before.

Over the course of ten days, they had almost completely depleted their two stocks, refining them all into elixirs.

Most of the elixirs are kept for future use in better places to enhance one's abilities.

"All added, you can leave now."

Bai Yu led the two back the way they came. Compared to other places, taking pills to break through in Tianlin Mountain was relatively safe.

【Kaiyudan】

Mid-grade Immortal Pill

Immortal Essence +2335

Metal Aura +4551

Comprehension increases by 11 within 10 minutes of taking the medicine.

If it weren't for the ridiculously high amount of heat drawn from the comprehension skill, which only adds 1 point to the comprehension skill, Zhong Wuyai would have loved to increase it to over 10,000.

After taking the Kaiyu Pill, Zhong Wuyai immediately swallowed another pill that added earth element energy, and his aura surged instantly.

With his level increasing once again, Zhong Wuyai's comprehension and absorption speed was very fast. Before he had completely refined it, he immediately consumed the elixirs of water and wood energy.

His own fire energy ignited instantly, and then the five elements circulated and gradually balanced...

"You can eat elixirs like this?"

Bai Yu was somewhat alarmed as he watched Zhong Wuyai consume the elixir. This kid was too reckless; wasn't he afraid of his body exploding due to the clash of the five elements...

But Zhong Wuyai's foundation was too solid. In the next term, he increased his affinity to over 100,000.

When he achieved immortality, his immortal essence was almost on par with that of a terrestrial immortal.

Although Zhong Wuyai is only at the mid-stage of Earth Immortal, the strength of his immortal essence and immortal body is almost comparable to that of a Celestial Immortal, and this aura is still rising.

Once the five elements are in balance, they will generate life endlessly.

The time for enlightenment had long passed, but Zhong Wuyai's cultivation did not stop.

The operation of the Five Elements brought Zhong Wuyai into a state of sudden enlightenment.

Bai Yu was somewhat astonished. This guy had suddenly gained enlightenment after eating a magic pill. Anyone who didn't know better would think he had taken an enlightenment pill.

After opening his eyes, Zhong Wuyai did not stop, but continued to consume the elixir...

This time, he swallowed all five pills at once...

Even Lu Zifan was a little taken aback, let alone Bai Yu.

Now, should I just keep going all the way through...?

This time the refining process was even faster, and Zhong Wuyai's cultivation level remained steadily at the peak of the Earth Immortal realm.

"Stop!"

Zhong Wuyai took out ten pills and was about to swallow them when Lu Zifan interrupted him.

"Aren't you going to prepare for the Celestial Tribulation?"

Zhong Wuyai had no choice but to stop. He had no idea what the Heavenly Immortal Tribulation was like, and he had even less idea how strong his own Heavenly Immortal Tribulation would be.

After all, Yin and Yang, the Four Symbols, the Five Elements, and the Eight Trigrams are all present, so the heavenly tribulation will definitely not be low.

After much thought, I decided that it would be best to forge a few defensive immortal artifacts.

Refining weapons is not difficult; the difficulty lies in refining them to achieve the desired attributes.

Currently, his Xuanjin Scroll is only at the minor completion stage, and his Yewu Diagram is only at the proficient level. He is still far from mastering even the quasi-immortal artifacts.

Let alone a celestial artifact, it's impossible even to get a near-celestial artifact.

Zhong Wuyai placed the number 1 on the Xuanjin Scroll, and there was almost no change in the surrounding area.

The Lv.31 Xuanjin Scroll has been transformed into the Myriad Transformations Scripture, and it's already at the maximum level.

Then, the level of the weapon was changed to Lv.21... and then, a new change occurred...

The "Myriad Transformations Manual" and the "Drawing Jade Diagram" have both disappeared, replaced by a new one: a divine craftsman's hand-drawn illustration...

A lot of information inexplicably appeared in his primordial spirit, but Zhong Wuyai frowned deeply.

The divine craftsman's hand-drawn content still revolves around things from the lower realms; refining materials from the celestial realm remains a problem.

But now, there aren't many Nether materials in the package at all.

"This is troublesome!"

"What do you need?"

"Mortal beings from the lower realms~!"

Bai Yu's mind was a little confused. You, a peak Earth Immortal, want to descend to the mortal realm?

Lu Zifan looked at the package and shook his head helplessly.

He didn't have much material either.

With the current materials, although we can make a few things, it's impossible to even upgrade the Master Craftsman's Hand-Painting skill to Lv.1 (beginner level).

Lu Zifan thought for a moment and immediately came up with an idea.

"Do you remember the first musket we made? We used pebbles and other debris from the ground to forge it. We didn't care about its grade; as long as it could be made, even a piece of junk would do."

Zhong Wuyai understood instantly; attributes and such could be completely disregarded.

Even the most useless soil in the celestial realm is a top-tier treasure in the mortal world.

How could something refined like this be bad? At the very least, it's far superior to spiritual treasures and precious gems.

Is the level of a master craftsman's hand-painted work still a problem?

After Zhong Wuyai figured it out, he began to work on refining it.

A handful of soil and a handful of gravel, burned directly with fire.

When it was almost burned, I forcibly kneaded it into a stick.

In the immortal realm, this thing is less useful than a tree branch, but the divine craftsman's skill level in hand-painting increased by more than 10,000.

Seeing that it was effective, Zhong Wuyai continued refining it...

Bai Yu couldn't understand what Zhong Wuyai was doing at all. ...Creating his own weapon-refining method? ...

In just two hours, Zhong Wuyai was surrounded by piles of junk.

They have sticks, stone knives, stone axes, and even stone darts.

The Master Craftsman's Hand-Painted Skills have reached Lv.3.

Zhong Wuyai was too lazy to wait for it to reach its full potential, so he directly added 1.

【Heaven and Earth Golden Mirror (Perfect)】

Sensing the information gained from his primordial spirit, Zhong Wuyai smiled...

Finally, I can refine quasi-immortal artifacts.

The crafting of quasi-immortal artifacts is very complicated because there is nothing related to 'immortals' in the lower realm.

It can be said that countless spiritual objects, under the blessing of the formation, exerted their full potential and barely entered the ranks of quasi-immortal artifacts.

But this is the Immortal Realm! Materials are readily available; we can certainly forge a quasi-immortal artifact here...

Zhong Wuyai looked at Bai Yu: "Do you have any materials for refining immortal artifacts? They need to be of lower quality."

"So, all that work was about refining a groping device?"

"right."

Bai Yu looked at the pile of stones on the ground, which looked like a child playing in the mud...

Are you sure you can do it?

How will you know if you don't try?

Bai Yu thought for a moment and took out a ring.

"The materials inside are all very ordinary, enough to keep you busy. However, could you refine a few high-grade immortal pills for me, wind-attribute ones?"

Zhong Wuyai didn't think much of it. He took out a celestial pill with more than two thousand wind qi, and was about to put the 1 in the quantity when he took it back.

"How about we go to the immortal volcano again?"

"Go to Fengshaling, it's windy there."

Although he couldn't understand Zhong Wuyai's methods, he knew that Zhong Wuyai could forcibly infuse the heat waves of the Undying Volcano into the pill.

"Is it dangerous?"

"Of course it's dangerous, but we're just on the outskirts. If we don't go in, there won't be any major problems."

Guan Xiangzi's clone was having a headache. Compared to the edge of the Undying Volcano, the Sandstorm Ridge was more dangerous for the group.

Fengsha Ridge is only slightly larger than Tianlin Mountain. If Zhong Wuyai were to drain all the wind from Fengsha Ridge, wouldn't all the immortals, wandering immortals, and demon immortals inside devour them...?

That being said, can my current primordial spirit clone suppress those guys in Fengsha Ridge?

Inside the Dayan Underground Palace, Guan Xiangzi's true form was discussing the Dao with Chang Heng when he suddenly stood up.

"Fellow Daoist Changheng, there are some things I need to take care of."

"What's wrong?...Do you need any help?"

Guan Xiangzi pondered for a moment and nodded: "Let's go together. We can also bring those little ones over later."

"Little guy?...You've taken on an apprentice?"

"No, but if they're willing, Fellow Daoist Changheng might as well give it a try."

"Then I'll have to see what kind of little fellow can make you so concerned!"
