Chapter 465 Refining Lingbao(Equipment), Method of Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul

"How is the situation?"

Seeing that Lyra was still in the midst of her refinement, Eldrin inquired.

She shook her head, her gaze sharpening as she said, "The might of this Golden Rhino Immortal Sword is extraordinary, its resistance to willpower exceptionally formidable."

Hearing her words, Eldrin frowned. Refining a sentient life-bound spiritual treasure by force would be extremely difficult.

To control it, 1 must erase the sentience of the innate spirit treasure, transforming it into a spiritual artifact akin to the Glazed Armor of the 3 Treasures (Magic Treasure), only then can its ultimate power be unleashed.

However, once the spiritual consciousness of a treasure artifact is erased, it loses the ability to spontaneously revive. Only a True Monarch’s level of magic power can activate its might.

They possessed the Great Luo Golden Elixir and further refined their spiritual power with their Natal Spirit Treasures, resulting in a degree of purity no less than that of a Nascent Soul True Lord. Thus, they were indeed capable of unleashing the might of these Spirit Treasures.

However, eradicating the will of a life-bound spiritual treasure was no easy task. Such an existence was practically equivalent to the incarnation of a Nascent Soul True Lord, protected by an indestructible spiritual treasure body, making it exceedingly difficult to obliterate.

Most crucially, to avoid damaging the spiritual treasure's potency, they couldn't employ overly aggressive methods. They had to gradually channel their magic power and spiritual sense to grind away the nascent consciousness within the artifact.

To accomplish this, even a Nascent Soul-level powerhouse would likely need to spend 10 full years.

"Allow me to lend you a hand."

Eldrin spoke, his magical power was no less than that of a True Monarch at the Nascent Soul stage. Having tempered his divine sense for years with the ‘5-Color Spirit Tempering Art,’ it now rivaled that of a Humanity Nascent Soul without the slightest disadvantage.

Lyra's cultivation base was higher, and her spiritual sense and magic power surpassed his as well. With the 2 of them joining forces, the refinement process proved exceptionally effective.

Thus, in merely 3 years' time, they had completely erased the sentient intellect of this Demon-Subduing Immortal Sword, reducing the Golden Rhino Immortal Sword to a mere spirit treasure immortal blade.

After refining the immortal sword, Eldrin breathed a slight sigh of relief. This spiritual treasure-level bonded immortal sword, once belonging to a sworn enemy, would have required immense effort to suppress had it remained unrefined. Now, not only was 1 less trouble to deal with, but he also gained an additional Demon-Subduing Immortal Sword.

Lyra gazed at the immortal sword before her, unable to suppress a faint smile. "This blade possesses extraordinary material properties," she remarked, "and its offensive capabilities are exceptionally formidable. It would serve perfectly both as a weapon against adversaries and as a treasure for transcending heavenly tribulations."

"Yes."

Eldrin also nodded with a smile. The Sun-Moon Twin Wheels were required to remain as formation guardians at Azure Lotus Isle, henceforth they must not leave the mountain unless absolutely necessary.

With the departure of the Vast Heaven Mirror (Magic Treasure) alongside Elder Chouzhu, Eldrin (Person Name) now had only 2 demon-refining treasures at his disposal: the Yin-Yang Void Mirror (Magic Treasure) and the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss (Magic Treasure).

Lyra now possessed only the Glazed Armor of the 3 Treasures (Magic Treasure) and the Heaven-Void Immortal-Slaying Sword. Having refined this Golden Rhino Immortal Sword, their offensive capabilities would be enhanced by several degrees.

At this thought, Eldrin gazed at the Golden Rhino Immortal Sword and said, "Your cultivation is higher, and your magic power runs deeper. It would be better for you to wield this sword."

"Good."

Lyra did not decline. Her cultivation had already reached the ninth layer of the Golden Core stage, and her spiritual power was at least 50 percent more profound than Eldrin's seventh-layer Golden Core. She was indeed better suited to wield the spirit treasure immortal sword.

The 2 sheathed their immortal swords. No sooner had they emerged from the seclusion chamber than the old clan leader received the news and hurried over.

At the sight of Eldrin, Chen Changxuan spoke up, "During your seclusion, Fairy Lingxu and Fairy Zijie sent word. They wish to discuss matters of importance with you."

Important matter?

Eldrin's eyes flickered slightly as he couldn't resist glancing at Lyra.

After the conclusion of this beast tide, the demon tribes near Ji Zhou were completely routed.

Ethereal Void Immortal had seized the Golden Rhino Ridge spiritual vein, renaming it Mount Ethereal Void, while Banquet Purple Princess dominated the Python-Crocodile Lake, establishing her own cultivation sanctuary known as the Abyssal Violet Lake Dojo.

These 2 abodes were neighbors to Qinglian Isle, both requiring mutual support as they rebuilt from desolation.

Since they had extended the invitation, it must be a matter of great importance. Without delay, Eldrin immediately used a messenger talisman to inform Lingxu Fairy and Yan Zi Ji.

1 month later, the 4 arranged to meet at the Green Lotus Isle.

By the shores of the spirit isle in Azure Lotus Province, Eldrin, Lyra, Yan Zi Ji, and Lingxu Xianzi sat facing 1 another.

In the Spirit Realm, lotuses bloomed 1 after another—rising unstained from the mud and washed pure yet unadorned by clear ripples—each fully displaying the transcendent grace of aquatic blossoms.

The Ethereal Void Fairy lifted her gaze and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "This Azure Lotus Wonder of your Green Lotus Isle is truly unparalleled in this world, far more magnificent than my own Ethereal Void Mountain."

"You flatter me."

Eldrin smiled faintly, while Lila stepped forward and personally brewed a pot of lotus tea for them.

The Ethereal Void Fairy’s eyes narrowed slightly, her pupils abruptly contracting as she murmured, "This girl’s innate talent is extraordinary—could it be she has formed a Superior-Grade Golden Core?"

"You have a discerning eye, True Lord."

Eldrin smiled, a hint of pride coloring his expression.

The Ethereal Void Fairy nodded slightly, yet after a long pause, she shook her head with a sigh. "A foundation suited for a superior-grade Golden Core is indeed rare. Yet it is a pity she possesses a Heterodox Spirit Root. Unless she encounters a heaven-defying serendipity in the future, I fear it will be nigh impossible for her to forge a Heavenly Path Nascent Soul."

How could this be?

Everyone’s expressions shifted slightly. Eldrin couldn’t help but ask, “Why would you say such a thing, True Lord?”

The Ethereal Void Fairy was in truth a True Lord undergoing reincarnation. In her previous life, she had cultivated for over 2 1000 years, attaining the Nascent Soul, 4th Tier (Cultivation Realm).

Such astonishing experiences endowed Fairy Lingxu with insights far surpassing ordinary people, even exceeding those of Lyra (Person Name), a descendant of the Dao Lord.

She let out a soft sigh and advised, "Because the Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul Tribulation far surpasses ordinary Nascent Soul lightning tribulations. Generally speaking, 1 would need 3 Refined Demon Supreme Treasures to successfully overcome it."

She was a cultivator with an Ice Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root), capable of unleashing the full power of only ice-attribute spirit treasures. Thus, she needed to acquire 3 ice-attribute spirit treasures to have any hope of transcending the Nascent Soul Realm.

"If she were to use spirit treasures of other attributes, she would need at least 5. But with her single spiritual root's magic power, activating 3 ice-attribute Demon-Subduing Supreme Treasures was already her limit."

"Not to mention, activating spiritual treasures of other attributes would consume an even greater amount of spiritual power."

"This..."

Eldrin (Person Name)面色微微一变，眼眸看向了宴紫姬问道：“你是如何渡过天道元婴之劫的？”

"I am different from ordinary people."

With an air of detachment, Yan Ziqi began, having inherited the legacy of the Dao Lord of the Purple Firmament. The Violet Firmament Heaven-Severing Sword she cultivated was an exceedingly rare Great Divine Power.

After breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm, she integrated the Violet Cosmos Severing Heaven Sword into her nascent soul, transforming it into an Innate Great Divine Ability.

After the Violet Heaven Severing Sword merged with his Nascent Soul, not only did its grade surge by a significant margin, but it also advanced to the Great Completion realm. Its power was now comparable to a full-force strike from a Nascent Soul, Mid Stage (Cultivation Realm) cultivator.

With the full support of the Ji Clan, she was finally able to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm.

Yan Zi Ji shook her head, then calmly added, "Those with Mutated Spirit Roots possess only 1 Natal Magic Treasure, and the purity of their spiritual energy remains a fatal weakness. I'm afraid your path to forging a Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul will be exceptionally arduous."

"How can I purify my magical power then?"

Lila frowned, her eyes grave as she spoke.
