Chapter 360

Jiang Yan felt it was more and more feasible, and immediately began to select spiritual artifacts.

As the Sect Master, he naturally had the right to mobilize the magic treasures inside at will.

Even, if he wanted to, he could be like the King's Treasury in the anime he had seen before, directly throwing magic treasures to fight the enemy.

However, as the Shushan Sect Master, he didn't need to do such unrefined things.

What's more, what enemy could withstand a slap from his peak Return to Void stage cultivator?

Did he still need to use magic treasures?

But if he wanted to go to the Xuanming small world, or even the Demon-Locking Tower, Jiang Yan still had to arm himself more.

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Yan looked back at his current magic treasures.

It's shameful to say, but he had arranged nearly thirty magic treasures for Klee, inside and out.

Qiqi also had more than a dozen magic treasures.

Yet he himself, except for the Primordial Jade Cutter given by Zhongli, only had the Pure World Glazed Bottle.

Although the Pure World Glazed Bottle was a top-tier precious artifact, Jiang Yan couldn't possibly take it out to use whenever he was bored.

For now, the Pure World Glazed Bottle itself was Shushan's strongest foundation.

What's more, the main ability of the Pure World Glazed Bottle was not attack.

The most important feature of the Pure World Glazed Bottle was the divine water inside that could bring the dead back to life.

It was to save all living beings.

When truly attacking, it might not be as powerful as a high-grade precious artifact.

The most important thing was...

Even when playing poker, you wouldn't play your trump card right away.

Some precious artifacts to support the facade were still necessary.

"Top-tier spiritual artifact, Three-Colored Exquisite Pagoda."

"Top-tier spiritual artifact, Doutian Seal, Twenty-Four Jingzhe Map, Nine Heavens Sword Box, Divine Wind Pearl..."

"Eh? This is..."

"Mysterious Yellow Heart-Locking Armor? I can give it to Klee... forget it, Klee already has a pile of armor, let's leave it for now."

There were countless spiritual artifacts here, and Jiang Yan didn't look at anything that wasn't a top-tier spiritual artifact.

Even so, he was dazzled.

Originally, he didn't care about these magic treasures, always feeling that being strong himself was enough; anyway, he was also a peak Return to Void stage cultivator.

About to break through to the Void-Harmony stage.

At that time, only precious artifacts and immortal artifacts would be useful to him.

But now...

He didn't have to use these things, but he couldn't not bring them!

This was a matter of face!

Jiang Yan seemed to have found the joy of shopping, but then, he frowned again, somewhat surprised:

"This is..."

"How come there are even such demonic and ghost artifacts?"

"Soul-Fearing Pearl, Ten Thousand Ghost Banner, Yin-Luo Whip..."

"This..."

Jiang Yan was silent for a moment and shook his head helplessly.

"It seems that the Shushan of the past really didn't destroy few demonic cultivators."

"However, these demonic and ghost artifacts are not without their merits, but..."

"If used improperly, I'm afraid it's easy to be backlashed; forget it, let's seal them a little bit."

Saying this, Jiang Yan raised his hand to form seals, engraving them into these extremely powerful demonic artifacts.

After finishing all this, Jiang Yan left with satisfaction and continued to explore other spiritual artifacts.

When he walked to another high mountain, Jiang Yan opened his eyes slightly.

"Mountain-Turning Seal?"

This high mountain in front of him was clearly transformed from a top-tier spiritual artifact.

Once the seal is released, the world turns upside down and the divine mountain falls.

This kind of powerful spiritual artifact, if strengthened a little, could also become a precious artifact at the foundation level.

What's more, this Mountain-Turning Seal itself was close to the precious artifact level.

I'm afraid it was top-tier in the entire sect treasury.

Jiang Yan collected it happily; the mountain rose up with a rumble, turning into a small seal and falling into Jiang Yan's hand.

The moment he got it, Jiang Yan felt his palm sink.

This Mountain-Turning Seal, even if shrunk, probably weighed as much as an immeasurable high mountain.

Such a thing was not something anyone could control.

Just as he was sighing, Jiang Yan suddenly noticed a golden scroll at the bottom of the mountain after it was moved.

The palpitation in his heart suddenly intensified; Jiang Yan frowned slightly and grabbed it casually.

The scroll fell into Jiang Yan's hand gracefully.

After clarifying the magic treasure information that appeared in his mind, even with Jiang Yan's mentality, he couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.

The shock was written all over his face.

Because this scroll was named...

"Investiture of the Gods?!"

Jiang Yan clenched the Investiture of the Gods and checked it repeatedly; after a while, he saw a "replica" character from the corner.

Jiang Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

That Investiture of the Gods was a divine object that once conferred the gods of the Heavenly Court and bound the true spirits of the Heavenly Court gods.

The genuine article should be in the hands of the Jade Emperor, the avatar of the Haotian Supreme.

If Shushan really took the Investiture of the Gods, I'm afraid that even if the Jade Emperor didn't take action, the group of immortals in the upper Heavenly Court would try their best to destroy Shushan.

If it was just a replica, then it was understandable.

Jiang Yan re-checked the information of the Investiture of the Gods and then realized.

Speaking of which, the name was big, but in fact, this was just a masterpiece of a refining elder at the peak of the Void-Harmony stage.

And that elder made many such Investiture of the Gods.

As for the reason, it was also very simple.

The cultivation world is vast and treacherous; mortals in the cultivation world are simply precarious.

As the most prosperous force in the cultivation world, Shushan still had the heart to protect mortals.

What's more, Shushan has many disciples; although they are said to be transcendent, they have long been bound to the red dust and are difficult to escape.

The mortal kingdoms attached to Shushan need to protect themselves, and the royal disciples from the mortal kingdoms need to protect their kingdoms.

But Shushan disciples need to focus on cultivation.

Who can stare at the mortal kingdoms every day to provide protection?

But in the cultivation world, let alone demonic beasts, even fierce beasts can destroy a kingdom.

In order to keep the mortal kingdoms attached to Shushan stable, that elder tried to imitate the Investiture of the Gods.

Its purpose was to use the mountains, rivers, and the general trend of national fortune to confer gods and create powerhouses capable of protecting the kingdom.

These powerhouses were mostly people who could not cultivate, but after being conferred as gods, within the kingdom, under the blessing of national fortune, they were enough to be comparable to some weaker cultivators.

Enough to deal with simple risks.

As for creating powerhouses comparable to those above the stage of refining qi into spirit, forget it.

If such a crisis really descended on a kingdom, no method would work.

At most, Shushan could only come forward to help them take revenge afterwards.

In the cultivation world, the lives of mortals are the most fragile; the law of the jungle has always been so.

Jiang Yan just sighed and didn't think much more.

With the Investiture of the Gods, there must be the God-Beating Whip.

These two things should be bundled together.

Jiang Yan's divine sense spread and searched again; sure enough, he found a golden God-Beating Whip not far away. ===== CHAPTER 361 =====
