Protagonist:
Xu Changqing
Xu Changqing left Qingmu Peak and soon returned to Hongfeng Valley.
It was evening at this time; Ruo Qunshuang was sitting cross-legged on the bed cultivating, when she suddenly sensed someone's presence, hurriedly opened her eyes, and immediately said with delight: "Qing Ge, you're back~"
Xu Changqing smiled and nodded: "Mm."
Ruo Qunshuang hurriedly got up: "You didn't even say anything in advance."
However, the next second, she was pounced on by Xu Changqing, and the two embraced: "We're an old married couple, we ought to have some surprises!"
The long night stretched on, no need for many words.
He wanted to make up for the separation during this period of time.
……
……
In a flash, time arrived at noon the next day.
After eating the Lingfan carefully prepared by Ruo Qunshuang, Xu Changqing turned and entered the cultivation room.
He activated the formations and restrictions one by one, and his whole person entered his Personal Space.
Just as he entered, he called out: "Xu Zixiao!"
With a flash of his figure, Xu Zixiao appeared instantly: "Master."
Xu Changqing glanced at him, then waved his hand: "Go call Tai Bai over."
"As you command."
Xu Zixiao turned and rushed toward the Teleportation Array.
Afterward, Xu Changqing looked at the several hundred mu of Fourth-Grade Spirit Fields before him.
The fields were uniformly filled with rare, seldom-seen Lingti; every single plant emitted dense Spiritual Energy, making his mood pleasant to behold.
You must know, these Lingti were all searched for by his avatars everywhere; whether in Quality or rarity, they far surpassed the Outside World.
Immediately, Xu Changqing began harvesting.
Harvested "Star-Pattern Dragon Blood Vine" 1 plant, Lifespan +80 days!
Harvested "Moon Soul Ice Crystal Grass" 1 plant, Lifespan +50 days!
Harvested "Yan Prison Red Sun Flower" 1 plant, Lifespan +70 days!
Harvested "Geng Metal Profound Iron Tree" 1 tree, Lifespan +100 days!
……
Remaining Lifespan: years!
When the harvesting was more or less done, Tai Bai arrived pinching his Smoke Gun: "What matter called me here?"
Xu Changqing turned and answered: "This time I sought you out to prepare to refine a set of Magic Treasures."
Tai Bai froze for a moment, involuntarily putting down his Smoke Gun: "A set of Magic Treasures?"
Qi Refining Stage, Foundation Establishment Stage — because they consume Spiritual Power, they use Spirit Tools.
From Golden Core onward, Spiritual Power transforms into Magic Power, therefore they use Magic Tools.
And above Magic Tools, there are even better things.
For example, Magic Treasures, Immortal Artifacts, and the like.
Never expected that the Main Body would go into seclusion for five years, and upon emerging would want Magic Treasures.
Xu Changqing nodded: "I want you to reference the Innate Five Elements Banner, and refine a set of Five-Colored Banners, to suit the Five Elements Spiritual Root; anyway, we don't lack materials."
We have Spirit Stones.
We have Spiritual Treasures.
Over these years, gathered by several avatars and Puppets, it's practically whatever we want we have.
Tai Bai said thoughtfully: "The Central Earth Suppressing Apricot Yellow Banner requires Zhenyue Stone.
The Eastern Wood Containing Green Banner requires Dragon Heart Wood.
The Southern Fire Burning Red Banner requires Earth Fire Spirit Core.
The Western Sharp Metal White Banner requires Geng Metal Refined Iron plus Tian Frost Gold Mother.
The Northern Water Controlling Profound Banner requires Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Ice Marrow paired with Deep Sea Xuan Zhu."
Upon hearing this, Xu Changqing waved his hand, and a large amount of materials appeared out of thin air; each one shot radiance into the sky, Spiritual Energy so dense it nearly condensed into mist.
Tai Bai's eyes went straight: "Good fellow, these materials — not to mention refining one set of Magic Treasures, even if each of us got a set it would be enough."
Xu Changqing said blandly: "If we're going to refine, we refine the best.
Though it's an imitation, the power will be weakened; but as long as the foundation isn't lacking, we can use it for a long time."
During this period of seclusion, he actually thought a lot.
He both recalled the past and contemplated the future.
Regardless, he must elevate himself as much as possible.
This Five-Colored Banner happens to perfectly match his Five Elements Spiritual Root.
The Earth Suppressing Apricot Yellow Banner governs stability, withstands strong attacks.
The Wood Containing Green Banner governs stillness, counters Yin Evil.
The Burning Fire Red Banner governs ferocity, burns everything.
The Sharp Metal White Banner governs sharpness, breaking defense.
The Water Control Mysterious Banner governs concealment, supporting protection.
They appear to be five colors, but in reality their abilities are abundant.
Tai Bai put away the Smoke Gun and said seriously: "Rest assured, although it is somewhat difficult, with these materials here, I guarantee success!"
Xu Zhangqing's mouth corner twitched: "Bring your artifact refining things here, we'll do it right here inside."
As soon as he finished speaking, he formed a seal with his fingertips and raised his hand to send several streams of mana into the ground.
Instantly, the Five-Colored Earth around gathered together, transforming into a Five-Pentagon Array, with rich Five Elements Spiritual Qi surging at the array eye.
Five Elements, five colors, flowing through the air like clouds and mist.
Tai Bai patted his Storage Item and smiled smugly: "I've always kept it on my person."
With a flash of light, a three-legged, two-eared Bronze Treasure Refining Furnace landed in the center of the array, its body covered in Spirit Patterns, and as soon as it touched the ground it stirred the surrounding Spiritual Energy, immediately humming "buzz buzz."
"Ignite the furnace!"
Tai Bai formed seals with both hands, golden qi bursting from his fingertips as he touched the bottom of the Bronze Treasure Refining Furnace.
The flames in the array surged up instantly, wrapping around the furnace body at extreme speed; the temperature inside the furnace suddenly soared, twisting even the air with heat.
Seeing this, Xu Zhangqing had no intention of interfering, but silently watched.
Although he possessed knowledge and skill in artifact refining, his Spiritual Root had after all been given away.
Tai Bai first refined the Central Earth Suppressing Apricot Yellow Banner, waving his hand to throw the Zhenyue Stone into the furnace, and additionally added a piece of Xuanhuang Spirit Soil and the juice of the Star-Pattern Dragon Blood Vine.
Xuanhuang Spirit Soil stabilizes the foundation, Dragon Blood Vine juice strengthens the power to repel evil.
Immediately afterward he controlled the flames, constantly compressing the materials inside the furnace.
The Zhenyue Stone gradually melted in the fierce fire, blending with the Xuanhuang Spirit Soil and Dragon Blood Vine juice, transforming into a mass of thick yellowish-brown liquid.
After a while, the liquid began to boil, surging with rich Earth Qi, then under Tai Bai's control slowly condensed into shape.
Unknown how long passed, an apricot-colored flag flew out of the furnace, its surface printed with fine Shan Yue patterns, and when it landed it actually caused the surrounding ground to tremble slightly.
Xu Zhangqing's eyes brightened: "It's done!"
Tai Bai hesitated not at all, immediately refining the second flag, the Eastern Wood Containing Green Banner.
Dragon Heart Wood, Moon Soul Ice Crystal Grass essence, and Thousand-Year Soul Nourishing Vine Juice were all thrown into the furnace together.
The firepower rose, Dragon Heart Wood melted into a green liquid, blending with the cool purity of the Ice Crystal Grass essence and the warm moisture of the Soul Nourishing Vine Juice.
Gradually, a soft green light appeared in the furnace, and unknown how long passed, a green and lustrous flag condensed into form, its edges wrapped in complex vine patterns, emitting an aura that calmed the mind and spirit.
Xu Zhangqing exhaled in relief: "The second one is also done."
Tai Bai's gaze was focused, seizing the moment to refine the third flag, the Southern Fire Burning Red Banner.
Earth Fire Spirit Core, Yan Prison Red Sun Flower, and Yan Sand Green Root Earth Fire Crystal were thrown into the furnace one by one; the flames surged instantly and turned crimson red.
Inside the furnace it was as if magma was rolling; Tai Bai felt pressure for the first time, the materials rapidly fused, transforming into a mass of burning, furious, savage beast.
When it condensed into form, the flag surface actually showed leaping flames, and one could even feel the scorching heat waves.
Tai Bai let out a low roar: "Western Sharp Metal White Banner!"
Geng Metal Refined Iron and Tian Frost Gold Mother were both thrown into the furnace.
Under the tempering of the fierce fire, the metal minerals rapidly melted.
Next, Tai Bai used the power of his Metal Spirit Root to shape them; unknown how long passed, as the furnace body suddenly shook, a plain white flag suddenly flew out, and because it carried sharp Golden Qi, it produced sounds of tearing through the air.
Finally, only the Northern Water Control Mysterious Banner remained!
