Chapter 177: Chapter 177 The 1st Medium Grade Immortal Artifact! (Part 2)
A half-palm-sized round-shaped Dao mirror appeared within Lu Changsheng’s body, emitting a heat so intense it seemed capable of destroying the heavens and the earth. Even the Immortal Artifacts such as the Yin Yang Dragons Cauldron and the Mysterious Yellow Tower, which Lu Changsheng had collected within his body, felt fear towards this small Dao mirror and consciously retreated into the chaos outside the Inner World, yielding the main position.
The True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak and the Samadhi True Fire Divine Banner, two fire attribute treasures, were attracted to the Mysterious Fire Mirror, circling around it, wishing to get closer.
Upon closer inspection, Lu Changsheng noticed that surrounding the Mysterious Fire Mirror was a ring of green jade with a red tassel on each, and at the center, embedded within the jade ring, was a thin red slice that seemed like a mirror but not a mirror, engraved with an ancient and simple flame totem.
Gazing intently, one’s soul felt as though plunging into an endless sea of celestial fire.
“The power of a mid-grade Immortal Artifact is truly extraordinary. I estimate that I am only barely able to activate it,” he thought.
After Shen Xiaoyao departed, Lu Changsheng took out the Mysterious Fire Mirror. The system displayed information about this item.
[Mysterious Fire Mirror: A mid-grade Immortal Artifact, crafted from the essence of myriad flames, an ancient treasure capable of summoning the Eight Desolation Fire Dragon, incinerating all things in the world. When paired with the mid-grade immortal formation map “Eight Fiends Xuanhuo Formation Map,” it can deploy the Eight Fiends Xuanhuo Formation, possessing the power to destroy the heavens and the earth.]
“This treasure can actually be paired with a formation?” Lu Changsheng was greatly shocked after reading the information about the Mysterious Fire Mirror.
As a mid-grade Immortal Artifact, the Mysterious Fire Mirror was already powerful, but having a corresponding Formation Map made its power boundless.
However, how could he obtain the “Eight Fiends Xuanhuo Formation Map”?
After pondering for a while, Lu Changsheng thought that if he gifted his disciples with fire formation maps, there might be a chance of receiving the Eight Fiends Xuanhuo Formation Map in return.
The Eight Fiends Xuanhuo Formation Map was a mid-grade immortal treasure. To specifically obtain a fixed mid-grade immortal treasure was extremely difficult.
It was by casually rewarding his disciples that Lu Changsheng had unexpectedly obtained a mid-grade Immortal Artifact.
Thus, Lu Changsheng was not in a hurry and instead took out the Yin Yang Dragons Cauldron. He placed the recently returned Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure “Ginseng King” inside the cauldron, along with other precious materials and various Elixir Pills to refine a Body Refinement Elixir.
Lu Changsheng’s True Qi transformed into Divine Fire and began to refine all kinds of superb Elixir Pills within the Yin Yang Dragons Cauldron.
Lu Changsheng, aiming for Body Tempering, had abundant experience in alchemy and, coupled with the Immortal Artifact Yin Yang Dragons Cauldron, achieved results comparable to an alchemist.
The Ginseng King broke down, becoming an essence of spiritual ginseng, blending with the powers of other Elixir Pills to form a pool of the most purified Body Refinement Elixir.
Lu Changsheng found a secluded place to start cultivating the Nine Revolutions Divine Demon Body Refining Skills.
Lu Changsheng had too many Cultivation Techniques to practice, always cultivating to refine the various techniques as swiftly as possible.
Lu Changsheng knew that with his astonishing speed of cultivation, even the Demon Lord was no match for him. As long as he managed to cultivate to a level surpassing the Demon Lord, then neither the four great Demon Sects nor the Demon Lord could do anything to him.
Lu Changsheng started to break through to the fourth layer of the Nine Revolutions Divine Demon Body Refining Skills.
The refined pure medicinal power of the Ginseng King was absorbed by his Innate Taoist Body, tempering every inch of Lu Changsheng’s body.
At this moment, Lu Changsheng’s body became dim, emitting a towering Demonic Qi.
In the Nine Revolutions Divine Demon Body Refining Skills, one revolution makes a god, another makes a demon; the fourth layer corresponds to the Demon Body.
Upon the great accomplishment of the Nine Revolutions Divine Demon Body Refining Skills, one attains the ninth revolution, the Divine Body.
Above Qingyun Peak, a vision of Demon Gods appeared in the sky, various shadows of gods and demons descended, once again startling the Elders of Mount Shu’s many peaks.
“What divine skill is Lu cultivating? It’s actually brought forth divine and demonic phenomena,” remarked one Elder.
Zhao Wuyan of Zhiyue Peak was deeply shocked upon seeing the all-encompassing divine and demonic phantasms appear over Qingyun Peak.
Lu Changsheng’s second disciple was able to defeat him, Zhao Wuyan; now Lu’s own cultivation was even more unfathomably deep.
Fairy Qingru of Xiaozhu Peak, Cangsong Elder of Shuiyun Peak, and other Mount Shu elders were all keenly aware of the disturbances at Qingyun Peak.
At Ten Thousand Swords Peak, the real person Taiyuan returned from Huang State and saw the celestial phenomena in the direction of Qingyun Peak. He was moved: “This is the celestial phenomenon triggered by the ‘Nine Revolutions Divine Demon Body Refining Skills,’ as recorded in ancient texts. If the Nine Revolutions Divine Demon Body Refining Skills are greatly accomplished, the physique can be comparable to gods and demons.”
The old sweeper was on a par with Taiyuan: “During your absence, this lad comprehended the Sword Dao in front of myriad sword barriers. He gained a lot and is currently cultivating a set of immortal-ranked swordsmanship.”
“Immortal-ranked swordsmanship… It seems he is the one destined for the calamity, not me, nor Changye. With such a genius in our Mount Shu and the wandering uncle roaming in the world, it looks like the calamity initiated by the four Great Demon Sects and the Demon Lord will be a close shave for our Mount Shu without actual danger.”
Taiyuan was somewhat relieved.
The old sweeper asked, “Did you gain anything from your trip to Huang State?”
Taiyuan’s expression was grave: “The Demon Lord has already fled in advance, but I have also found out that he possesses the ancient bloodline of the fire phoenix, ‘Nirvana Phoenix Body.’ This special constitution allows him to become stronger each time he miraculously survives. The next time the Demon Lord appears, his cultivation will have greatly improved. I’m not sure whether the uncle will be able to defeat him.”
“Nirvana Phoenix Body… Such a constitution is quite troublesome. It must be erased in one fell swoop; otherwise, letting the Demon Lord undergo life-and-death battles again and again will make his cultivation reach an extremely terrifying level.”
“Exactly. The Demon Lord was initially a weak member of the Demon Race Loose Cultivators. He fought with other Great Demons in Huang State, lingering between life and death time after time, until he finally achieved his current cultivation and unified thousands of races in Huang State. His invasion into Xia State is also to constantly challenge his limits, ultimately to ascend to the Immortal Realm and seek the path to Longevity. As to why he wants to hunt down Lu Qinglian, it’s mostly likely to obtain the blood of the Martial King Divine Physique, so he can refine his body with the golden blood of the Martial King Divine Physique in order to overcome the Ninefold Heavenly Tribulation. The Nirvana Phoenix Body goes against the heavens, and the Heavenly Tribulation is exceptionally fearsome; without any special means, even the Demon Lord is uncertain whether he will be able to cross the Heavenly Tribulation in the future.”
“If only I could be given more time…”
The old sweeper sank into contemplation.
“The Demon Lord may have sensed something, which is why he’s so eager to destroy our six major sects.”
“What worries me isn’t the Demon Lord.”
“Senior, what do you mean by that?”
Taiyuan was startled and looked at the old sweeper.
In the old sweeper’s murky eyes flashed a trace of brilliance: “Taiyuan, did your master think you were the one destined to face the calamity for our Mount Shu three thousand years ago?”
“That’s right.”
“And you thought Li Changye was the true destined one five hundred years ago?”
“Are you saying that…”
Taiyuan took a deep breath, thoroughly shaken by the old sweeper’s deduction.
“Similarly, perhaps the calamity brought by the four Great Demon Sects and the Demon Lord is not the calamity referred to by the Ancestral Master. Do you understand what I mean?”
“The junior understands.”
Taiyuan’s expression became even more solemn.
The Demon Lord’s cultivation was even above that of Taiyuan, and it already posed a thorny problem for the six major sects; however, if the united force of the four Great Demon Sects and the Demon Lord was still not the calamity prophesied by the Ancestral Master of Mount Shu, what then was the true calamity?
“No matter what, let’s block the soldiers with generals and cover the water with earth. Our Mount Shu’s heritage over tens of thousands of years is enough to trap and kill quite a few powerful enemies.”
