Chapter 215: Chapter 215: The Golden Crow Divine Furnace! (1st Update)
"The Soul-Attracting Bell, a lower-grade Acquired Spirit Treasure; it can attack the soul and requires 20,000 Sect Contribution Points."
"The Soul Settling Bell, a mid-grade Acquired Spirit Treasure; it can protect the soul from certain levels of spirit attacks and requires 120,000 Sect Contribution Points."
"The Mountain Seal, a mid-grade Acquired Spirit Treasure; it can transform into a mountain to suppress strong enemies and requires 150,000 Sect Contribution Points."
"..."
"I will take all of these magical treasures."
Lu Changsheng almost swept the Treasure Pavilion of Mount Shu clean of various Acquired Spirit Treasures.
These Acquired Spirit Treasures could be reforged, so there was no need to worry about the disciples and elders of Mount Shu not having Acquired Spirit Treasures to use.
Meanwhile, the Treasure Pavilion of Mount Shu acquired a batch of rare Innate Spirit Treasures.
"Elder Lu really is an oddity. What does he want with so many Acquired magical treasures? The value of these Innate Spirit Treasures is above that of the Acquired ones."
"How could us ordinary people understand Elder Lu's thoughts?"
The many disciples of Mount Shu's Treasure Pavilion had become used to such oddities.
Every three to five days, Lu Changsheng would come to the Treasure Pavilion of Mount Shu to exchange for various low and mid-level magical treasures.
After exchanging for a batch of magical treasures, Lu Changsheng returned to Qingyun Peak. He gave away one magical treasure daily, using the remaining four opportunities to give elixir pills, occasionally awarding talismans or some medicinal materials.
[Ding, you have awarded your disciple Ji Xuan the lower-grade Acquired Spirit Treasure "The Soul-Attracting Bell" and received an 80,000-fold return reward as mentor: the high-grade Innate Spirit Treasure "Hell Bell."]
A bronze bell magical treasure appeared inside Lu Changsheng.
He had seen this magical treasure before at the Joyous Union Sect's Holy Maiden.
[Hell Bell: A high-grade Innate Spirit Treasure, it can attack the enemy's soul and possesses functions such as neutralizing attacks and escaping.]
Although the Hell Bell is only a high-grade Innate Spirit Treasure, it belongs to the highest quality of high-grade treasures, approaching a lower-grade Immortal Artifact.
"Spirit attack magical treasures are still useful for me, it's just that the rank of the Hell Bell isn't high enough. What I need is a spirit attack magical treasure of Immortal Artifact level."
If it had been during the Dao Palace Realm period, Lu Changsheng would have treasured the Hell Bell like a precious jewel.
But now that Lu Changsheng had reached the Void Refinement Realm, the Hell Bell was only effective against powerful enemies at the peak of the Void Refinement Realm; at most, it could be used to disturb them.
"I will award the 'Hell Bell' to Ji Xuan in the future; it will certainly return an Immortal Artifact. A spirit attack type Immortal Artifact is effective against both the Void Refinement Realm and even the Unity Realm powerhouses."
Lu Changsheng temporarily put away the Hell Bell.
Once Ji Xuan reached the eighth layer of the Dao Palace Realm, he could award her a high-grade Innate Spirit Treasure.
Having a disciple skilled in spirit attacks could be very useful in the future.
Lu Changsheng practiced the Taiqing Wuji Technique at Qingyun Peak, striving to reach the eighth layer of the Void Refinement Realm as quickly as possible, mentoring while cultivating.
[Ding, you have awarded your disciple Shen Xiaoyao the mid-grade Acquired Spirit Treasure "Mountain Seal" and received a thousand-fold return reward as mentor: the mid-grade Innate Spirit Treasure "Mount Divine Suppression Demon Seal."]
This was a suppression-type magical treasure that could transform into a divine mountain and suppress strong enemies.
This magical treasure was useful for disciples in the Dao Palace Realm, but for Lu Changsheng in the Void Refinement Realm, it wasn't very useful. He needed to continue mentoring and receive Immortal Artifact-level magical treasures in return.
[Ding, you have awarded your disciple Shen Xiaoyao the mid-grade Acquired Spirit Treasure "Imitation Immortal Phoenix Pattern Furnace" and received a hundred-fold return reward as mentor: the lower-grade Innate Spirit Treasure "Imitation Samadhi True Fire Furnace."]
[Ding, you have awarded your disciple Shen Xiaoyao the lower-grade Innate Spirit Treasure "Imitation Samadhi True Fire Furnace" and received a hundred-fold return reward as mentor: the high-grade Innate Spirit Treasure "Imitation Bagua Furnace."]
The next day, Lu Changsheng awarded Lin Qingzhi the high-grade Innate Spirit Treasure "Imitation Bagua Furnace" he had obtained.
Lu Changsheng intended to groom Lin Qingzhi towards becoming a Divine Pill
[Ding, you have rewarded your disciple Lin Qingzhi with a premium Innate Spirit Treasure "Imitation Bagua Furnace" and obtained the Ten Thousand Fold Return Reward for mentoring: a mid-grade Immortal Artifact "Golden Crow Divine Furnace".]
[Ding, the number of Immortal Artifacts that can be returned this month -1, the remaining number of Immortal Artifacts that can be returned this month is 0.]
The cry of the Golden Crow resounded within Lu Changsheng's body, and a divine furnace appeared before him, engraved with the totem of the Golden Crow, the patterns flowing with divine light, emitting astonishing waves of heat.
The Mysterious Fire Mirror, Eight Fiends Xuanhuo Formation Map, True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak, and Samadhi True Fire Divine Banner, several Fire Attribute magical treasures circled around, resonating with the Golden Crow Divine Furnace.
A mid-grade Immortal Artifact level pill refining furnace?
Lu Changsheng was overjoyed, not expecting that this month's returned Immortal Artifact would be a mid-grade one!
The Golden Crow Divine Furnace could refine ninth-grade Immortal Pills, and even tenth-grade ones!
If the Golden Crow Divine Furnace were used to refine Body Refinement Elixir, the efficiency would be even higher.
"With the Golden Crow Divine Furnace, there's no need to use the Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron for pill refining."
Since the Golden Crow Divine Furnace was specifically for pill refining, there was naturally no need to use the Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron anymore.
Once Lin Qingzhi broke through to the Void Refinement Realm, Lu Changsheng could then reward him with the Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron as his exclusive Immortal Artifact.
"There are no returns for Immortal Artifacts this month, so I can just reward Elixir Pills next."
Lu Changsheng continued to stockpile Elixir Pills, preparing to use them for refining his Eight Revolutions Demonic Body.
The Martial King Divine Physique of Lu Qinglian still required further refinement and would also need a large number of Elixir Pills.
Lu Changsheng cultivated peacefully at Qingyun Peak.
...
The Summoning Demon Palace, several Reincarnation Hall Elders and disciples appeared, kneeling before the Palace Master of the Summoning Demon Palace.
"I am Luo Feng of the Reincarnation Hall. Our Reincarnation Hall was annihilated by an alliance of Mount Shu and the Martial Alliance. The Hall Master and the Young Sect Leader perished tragically, and we are being pursued by the five major sects. We beg the Palace Master to shelter us."
"Considering my relationship with Wan Chengdao, from now on you are disciples of our Summoning Demon Palace. Our strength at the Summoning Demon Palace is not necessarily weaker than the Reincarnation Hall. As long as you work hard, when the Demon Lord arrives, in a snap of the fingers, the five major sects will be dust."
The rotting face of the Palace Master of the Summoning Demon Palace appeared somewhat ferocious.
The Elders and disciples of the Reincarnation Hall looked at each other.
The Summoning Demon Palace was established thirty thousand years ago and was the most enigmatic among the four major Demon Sects, with unclear strength.
After the annihilation of the Reincarnation Hall, the Elders and disciples were hunted down by the five major sects, with hardly one in ten surviving. Those Elders and disciples of the Reincarnation Hall lucky enough to live had no choice but to seek refuge with the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, Joyous Union Sect, and the Summoning Demon Palace.
Luo Feng chose to lead a group of Reincarnation Hall disciples to the Summoning Demon Palace, known for its enigmatic actions among the four major Demon Sects.
He betrayed the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, nearly causing the death of Xia Ningxue, Xiao Meng'er, and other young Elders of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion; hence, the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion sent out Supreme Elders to hunt down Luo Feng, compelling him to find another power to rely on.
"What exactly is the Summoning Demon Palace up to?"
Even as Luo Feng became a traitor of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, joined the Reincarnation Hall, and then took refuge with the Summoning Demon Palace, he never fully understood the hidden card of this Demon Sect.
...
On the main peak of Mount Shu, several streaks of light descended, and the welcoming Elders and disciples of Mount Shu stood in solemn respect.
Grandmaster Chen of the Martial Alliance, Fairy Su of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, Yu Xuanji of the Hidden Dragon Temple and Master Wuxiang of the Immeasurable Temple, the leaders of the four major sects gathered at Mount Shu.
"The Sect Leader has been waiting for a long time in the back mountain."
"Thank you for your trouble."
The four Sect Leaders were led by a Mount Shu Elder towards the Ten Thousand Swords Peak, where Taiyuan, the True Person, resided.
