Chapter 1066: Superior Spiritual Artifact Qinglong Halberd
The refining of elixirs has always been meticulous work, allowing no carelessness.
Qinglong Daoren was no different; having mastered the pill-refining technique obtained from Chen Chuyang, he found refining elixirs very simple—ordinary third- and fourth-grade elixirs were effortless in his hands.
After refining a batch of elixirs, he had various kinds; most were cultivation-enhancing elixirs, among which fifth-grade elixirs were present, the most numerous being Dragon Blood Pills, and the upgraded Dragon Blood Pills had a very good effect on his own cultivation.
Qinglong Daoren possessed the Azure Dragon Clan's bloodline, which at least doubled the effect of Dragon Blood Pills; the terrifying effect made him obsessed with Dragon Blood Pills, and the upgraded version might not be enough, so he had plenty of dragon essence blood on hand, including the essence blood of the two dragon-bloodline demon beasts brought by Mu Long Chen.
He could refine a batch of upgraded Dragon Blood Pills; after Qinglong Daoren refined several furnaces of them, his pill-refining skill improved, and he murmured, 'Even the upgraded Dragon Blood Pills cannot sustain me for long; as my cultivation rises swiftly, at least until I reach my main body's cultivation level, my cultivation will not stall nor encounter a bottleneck.'
"'We need higher-grade elixirs; over at the main body, I don't know if they have researched a new formula for Dragon Blood Pills.'"
"'If...'"
Qinglong Daoren had always been in contact with Chen Chuyang; a single thought let them know each other, and most of the time it was Chen Chuyang who initiated the contact, not him contacting the main body.
After finishing the elixir refinement, Qinglong Daoren thought it over and decided to refine a few more furnaces suitable for his disciple Huang Yan—a second-grade Body-Shaping Elixir that could help him reshape his body and compensate for the missing bone fragment; regrowing the Flame Yang Bone was unlikely.
The rebirth of the Flame Yang Bone requires him to personally replenish the origin; perhaps in the future it could regrow.
What Qinglong Daoren needed to do was to repair his body so he could return to the path of cultivation.
This point is very important.
Besides this, he also needed to refine some Vitality Elixirs to help him restore his vitality, and the rupture of his dantian also required repair.
These are major projects requiring gradual repair over time; unfortunately, the main body is not here, otherwise Chen Chuyang would surely like to use Huang Yan as a test subject, study him, and gain more experience.
Qinglong Daoren also began researching; after refining elixirs, he started to forge a weapon for himself, as lacking a suitable weapon was unacceptable.
He had the materials, and plenty of them; the spine bone of an Azure Dragon corpse was perfectly suited for his forging, and with various other materials, he had a rough plan in mind—he just needed to forge according to his ideas.
Before forging, Qinglong Daoren recovered some vigor, then closed his eyes.
After conditioning for half a day, Qinglong Daoren began forging his weapon, adding his own essence blood into the process.
Melting the Azure Dragon spine bone took time; it required three full days of refinement before any signs of melting appeared.
After another three days, the spine bone was finally melted, and then various materials were added; once all materials were melted, they were fused together.
This step requires time to purify and remove impurities.
Before the impurities are removed, it cannot condense, nor can formations be inscribed.
He waited another day.
Qinglong Daoren began shaping the weapon's form; this step was especially important, and no mistake could be afforded.
He already had an idea in mind; he just needed to execute it.
After a few hours, the new weapon was about to take shape, and Qinglong Daoren hurriedly inscribed the formation.
This step was very important, crucial.
If mistaken, it would truly be ruined.
The formation determined the weapon's strength; Qinglong Daoren tensed his nerves, proceeding with extreme caution, not daring to be careless.
Inscribing the formation consumes a great deal of mental energy, but Qinglong Daoren, with ample spiritual power, need not worry about this.
This inscription took a full day and night.
Once the formation was completely inscribed, the brand-new weapon appeared, a complete weapon forged in one go.
There was no distinction; the formation and weapon fused into one, completely inseparable.
Qinglong Daoren dropped in fresh blood, inscribed a soul mark, and performed the recognition ceremony on the spot.
"Roar."
After the weapon recognized its master, a dragon's roar shook the room's interior; the formation trembled on the verge of collapse, as if it could be shattered at any moment.
Qinglong Daoren quickly moved to suppress it, preventing the formation from being broken.
Having completed this step and the recognition, Qinglong Daoren then examined the weapon in his hand.
Qinglong Halberd was the name he gave this weapon.
A long halberd, engraved with an Azure Dragon pattern, exuding an overbearing aura overall.
It suited Qinglong Daoren.
"Qinglong Halberd, a superior spiritual artifact, its power is boundless; it may not match the Primordial Bell, but it is not inferior, and it can grow stronger as I nurture it."
"When used by anyone of the Azure Dragon Clan, its power can be increased by over thirty percent."
"It's truly not easy; after all these years, I finally have my own weapon."
"My combat power has at least doubled, and as I become familiar with the Qinglong Halberd, my strength can increase even further."
Qinglong Daoren gripped the Qinglong Halberd, feeling its power—an unmatched overbearing aura, and a surge of strength with nowhere to vent.
He had a premonition that, with the Qinglong Halberd in hand, he need not fear opponents whose cultivation was three realms higher than his.
After becoming familiar with it for a while, Qinglong Daoren put away the Qinglong Halberd, as this place was unsuitable for cultivation or for unleashing it.
Then he sat down to thoroughly familiarize himself with the Qinglong Halberd, to master it completely.
Inside Longshe Shan.
Chen Chuyang opened his eyes and gazed toward the sky.
His deep gaze could pierce the void, reaching Longshe Shan in Tianwai, and fell upon Qinglong Daoren.
"The upgraded Dragon Blood Pills indeed cannot satisfy our cultivation; we need higher-grade elixirs to meet our cultivation needs."
"Fifth-grade elixirs won't do; then sixth-grade elixirs, and if not, seventh-grade elixirs are also possible—Tianwai resources are abundant, enough to support my rapid advancement to a seventh-grade pill refiner; this world's materials are scarce, and the grades of various spiritual medicines are low."
"Even if I have been nurturing it, Longshe Shan has been nurturing it, and the Primordial Bell's interior has been nurturing it, it's still not enough; the world's spiritual energy ultimately cannot compare to Tianwai's, and the cultivation speed is not fast enough."
"The Spirit Vein Transfer Plan must be accelerated; by using Tianwai's spirit veins to replenish this world, we can increase its spiritual energy and thus its strength; otherwise, after reaching the True Realm, it will be difficult to improve further."
"I have several formulas for sixth-grade elixirs here; unfortunately, there are no spiritual herbs, so I cannot refine them."
"It seems we need to open the channel with Qinglong Daoren to directly obtain Tianwai's spiritual herbs."
"But doing so would bring many dangers; overall, the benefits outweigh the drawbacks."
"Once opened, we can swiftly boost this world's strength and also enhance my own; as long as the materials are transported over, we can refine higher-grade spiritual herbs, and when the time comes, if I wish to go to Tianwai, I can go directly without needing to pass through that altar passage, the landing point being uncertain."
The directional transmission formation is a very high-level Formation; Chen Chuyang had already begun to set it up.
Studying that transmission formation, studying the altar, having clearly understood its core principle, one can naturally set one up.
