I Have A Disciple Simulator - Chapter 90
Chapter 90: Chapter 90: Inferior Immortal Artifact!
Lu Changsheng took out a bronze cauldron, which was only a medium-grade spiritual artifact.
The return function of the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator allowed for even higher-grade magical treasures to be returned, just that it required an extra give.
“This Xuanling Ding can be used to concoct elixir pills and suppress enemies,” he explained.
“Thank you, Master.”
Lin Qingzhi accepted the Xuanling Ding, completely puzzled.
Why had his master bestowed upon him such a type of magical treasure?
Could it be that his master wanted him to become an alchemist?
[Ding, you have awarded your disciple Lin Qingzhi with the medium-grade spiritual artifact “Xuanling Ding”, receiving an eight-thousand-fold return reward from apprenticeship: a high-grade postnatal magical treasure “Dragon Pattern Ancient Cauldron”.]
In Lu Changsheng’s Dao Palace Realm, a bronze cauldron with intricate dragon patterns appeared, radiating a teal glow.
This time’s luck was good; givingaway a medium-grade spiritual artifact directly returned a high-grade postnatal magical treasure.
Could today be an auspicious day on the lunar calendar?
Lu Changsheng couldn’t continuously award Flying Swords, so he kept changing the magical treasures he awarded.
“This ‘Dragon Pattern Ancient Cauldron’ is a high-grade postnatal magical treasure that can gather nature’s spiritual energy, concoct elixir pills, and suppress enemies,” he said.
Lu Changsheng then gave the returned Dragon Pattern Ancient Cauldron to his disciple.
“This magical treasure is surely too precious…”
Lin Qingzhi was aware of the value of the Dragon Pattern Ancient Cauldron.
The Dragon Pattern Ancient Cauldron had three uses.
First, it gathered the surrounding spiritual energy for the cultivator to breath in and out, accelerating cultivation.
Second, it was used to concoct higher-level elixir pills.
Third, it served as an attack magical treasure to suppress powerful foes.
A high-grade postnatal magical treasure was enough for Lin Qingzhi to use until he reached the Dao Palace realm.
[Ding, you have awarded your disciple Lin Qingzhi with the high-grade postnatal magical treasure “Dragon Pattern Ancient Cauldron”, receiving a ten-thousand-fold return reward from apprenticeship: a lower-grade immortal artifact “Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron”.]
Hum!
Lu Changsheng’s Dao Palace Minor Realm suddenly trembled violently, as if heaven and earth were flipping over, nearly causing the Dao Palace to collapse! “Master, are you alright?”
Lin Qingzhi noticed that Lu Changsheng’s complexion was exceptionally pale, yet within the pallor, there was a twisted joy.
Could it be that the master had suffered a demonic deviation?
It was Lin Qingzhi’s first time seeing someone’s expression carry excitement amidst pain. Such a weird expression, even if it was a demonic deviation, shouldn’t be like this…
“It’s not good, Master’s aura is extremely unstable, I need to find the Sect Leader.”
Assuming that Lu Changsheng had suddenly suffered a demonic deviation, Lin Qingzhi’s first thought was to seek the help of Supreme Elder Taiyuan and save his master from this calamity.
“Qingzhi, do not act rashly, and do not speak,” Lu Changsheng suddenly managed to say with effort. Lin Qingzhi was about to get up, taking his master’s words as an absolute trust. He continued to meditate in silence.
Still, Lin Qjngzhi was extremely worried about his master’s condition.
Lu Changsheng circulated the Taiqing Wuji Technique through his Zodiac Meridians within his body, mobilizing all his spiritual energy to suppress the lower-grade immortal artifact “Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron” that had appeared in the Dao Palace, attempting to refine it into his own magical treasure.
The Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron was an ancient-looking bronze cauldron with flood dragon-shaped handles, emitting Yin Yang Dual Qi, with terrifying pressure that almost destroyed Lu Changsheng’s Dao Palace.
It was Lu Changsheng’s first experience with the terror of an immortal artifact.
Lu Changsheng had been swiping for months, and the system had never returned an immortal artifact, but this time he succeeded, and his Dao Palace nearly collapsed under the pressure of the immortal artifact.
Luckily, Lu Changsheng’s cultivation was close to the ninth level of the Dao Palace realm, which made his Dao Palace more solid; otherwise, he might have collapsed from being unable to withstand the pressure of the immortal artifact.
Lu Changsheng circulated the true qi throughout his body, trying to refine the Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron.
Once the immortal artifact was refined, it would no longer emit its own pressure.
Lu Changsheng did not let Lin Qingzhi go to find the Supreme Elder Taiyuan to help him suppress this immortal artifact.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, Lu Changsheng would not allow anyone to know that he possessed an immortal artifact.
The innocent man who carries a jade is guilty for its worth.
If others were to know that Lu Changsheng harbored an Immortal Artifact within him, and word leaked out, I fear the four Great Demon Sects would dispatch their Supreme Elders to assassinate me by every possible means and seize the Immortal Artifact.
To the six major sects and the four Great Demon Sects, an Immortal Artifact is a treasure that steadies the foundation of their power.
Waves of immense True Qi pressed in from all directions, suppressing the restless Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron.
Fortunately, the Spiritual Energy within Lu Changsheng was several times that of an ordinary eighth-layer cultivator of the Dao Palace realm; plus, his physique was as robust as meteoric iron, allowing him to gradually refine this low-grade Immortal Artifact.
The low-grade Immortal Artifact, once imprinted by Lu Changsheng, recognized him as master and finally settled down, ceasing to radiate its intimidating pressure unless Lu Changsheng himself activated it.
“Phew…”
In the process of refining the Immortal Artifact, Lu Changsheng had nearly exhausted all of his strength, drenching his Qilin Cloud Pattern Daoist Robe in sweat, making him appear as if he had been fished out of a pool.
Lu Changsheng’s face was deathly pale, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.
“Damn, the power of the Immortal Artifact is too terrifying. I haven’t even activated it; merely accepting it as master has drained all my strength. No wonder Taiyuan the Immortal seldom uses the Immortal Artifact. He only does so when he meets a formidable enemy or finds himself in grave danger, prepared to stake his life on the power of the Immortal Artifact.”
“This is my ultimate trump card.”
Although the Immortal Artifact that Lu Changsheng obtained was not the most suitable Flying Sword for him, he could also make use of the Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron.
With Lu Changsheng’s current cultivation level, he had only one chance to activate the Immortal Artifact.
In other words, Lu Changsheng would only resort to using the Immortal Artifact in a dire situation because activating it just once would nearly deplete him.
Lu Changsheng swallowed two fifth-grade Elixir Pills, “Heavenly Spirit Pills,” to speed up the restoration of his Spiritual Energy.
For Lu Changsheng, fifth-grade Elixir Pills were almost like candy; he did not mind using them at all.
Lu Changsheng’s steady nature always kept him in peak condition.
As for the fifth-grade Elixir Pills, Lu Changsheng had plenty to spare.
“Master, are you alright now?”
Lin Qjngzhi, who had been worried for a long time, finally breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that Lu Changsheng was recovering.
His master was as gracious to him as a mountain, and if anything happened to his master, Lin Qingzhi wouldn’t know what to do.
“Your master is now safe and sound,” Lu Changsheng said, thinking of another opportunity to take on a disciple without wasting it, “The Heavenly Spirit Pill that your master just took is rich in Spiritual Energy, which can temporarily speed up the recovery of Spiritual Energy. Your master rewards you with one.” “Master, you are too good to your disciple…”
Lin Qingzhi was deeply moved; the first thing his master did upon recovering was to present him with an Elixir Pill…
[Ding, you’ve rewarded your disciple Lin Qingzhi with a fifth-grade Elixir Pill “Heavenly Spirit Pill”, and received a twentyfold return reward: a sixth-grade Elixir Pill “Dajuqi Dan”.]
Perhaps the Qi Destiny was used up in the first two chances, and the third return was only a sixth-grade Elixir Pill.
However, the effects of the sixth-grade Elixir Pill, Dajuqi Dan, are even stronger than those of the Heavenly Spirit Pill.
“You may go and rest.”
“Disciple takes his leave.”
After Lin Qingzhi left, Lu Changsheng took out the low-grade Immortal Artifact, the Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron, and examined it closely.
Having refined the Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron, it would not cause any disturbances unless Lu Changsheng poured True Qi into it to activate it.
The current state of the Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron was like that of an ordinary bronze vessel, except its patterns were extremely intricate.
The system displayed the uses of the Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron.
Like the Dragon Pattern Ancient Cauldron, the Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron had three functions: gathering energy, alchemy, and suppression.
Beyond that, the Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron had a fourth function – to counteract evil entities.
Normally, the Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron can be used for gathering energy and alchemy; strictly speaking, it is not an Attack Magical Treasure focused on assault.
But as the saying goes, even a brick flies with great force, and Lu Changsheng could also activate the Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron to smash directly at his enemies.
Lu Changsheng put away the Yin Yang Flood Dragon Cauldron.
With this trump card in hand, Lu Changsheng felt somewhat relieved.
Once he entered the Immortal Ruins, no one in the Dao Palace Realm would be his match, not even his senior brother Li Changye, who, without an Immortal Artifact, wouldn’t stand a chance against him.
The next day, Lu Changsheng stepped out the door, feeling refreshed and rejuvenated, and his mood greatly improved.
