Chapter 1242: Nine Nether Cold Crystal Iron (Second update, requesting everything)
Li Zhangsheng thought for a moment, and the Hunyuan Golden Lamp and Doushuai Silver Lamp flew out from his Consciousness Sea, quietly hovering in front of him.
He had no intention of re-refining the two ancient lamps; he only wanted to understand the Restrictions of the two ancient lamps more deeply, so as to better refine a third ancient lamp.
Because they were not born from the same source, even if the third ancient lamp he refined was excellent, it would only be a counterfeit, and it would ultimately lack something compared to the Hunyuan Golden Lamp and Doushuai Silver Lamp; even if the counterfeit ancient lamp reached the Zifu Qizhen level, it could only serve as a substitute.
Since he was only refining a counterfeit ancient lamp, why would Li Zhangsheng waste overly good materials? He possessed the Exotic Treasure Burial Technique; as long as he stimulated the potential of the counterfeit ancient lamp, he believed it could reach the power of the Zifu Qizhen level in a short time, and if combined with the other two ancient lamps, it could absolutely erupt with the power of a Langhuan Supreme Treasure.
Combined exotic treasures are quite peculiar; when collected in full, their power will be greatly enhanced.
If it were like the Three Talents Lamp, having only the Hunyuan Golden Lamp and Doushuai Silver Lamp would lead to an imbalance, merely approaching the Langhuan Supreme Treasure level.
But if collected in full, the power would likely exceed an ordinary Langhuan Supreme Treasure, at least reaching the level of a Mid-grade Langhuan Supreme Treasure.
Of course, if the third one is a counterfeit, the power will ultimately be somewhat weakened, but in the short term, it can definitely erupt with the power of an Entry Level Langhuan Supreme Treasure.
After a week passed, Li Zhangsheng finally finished studying the two ancient lamps inside and out, including the Restrictions, appearance, properties, and so on.
Li Zhangsheng chose to strike while the iron was hot; with his strength as a Grandmaster Artifact Refiner, as long as he had suitable materials, he could absolutely refine a qualified counterfeit ancient lamp.
The Three Talents Lamp is composed of Heaven, Earth, and Man; the three ancient lamps are the Hunyuan Golden Lamp, Doushuai Silver Lamp, and Spirit Treasure Copper Lamp respectively. Each of the three ancient lamps has its own marvelous uses, and the combined Three Talents Lamp is also known as the number one lamp-type supreme treasure in the world.
This time, Li Zhangsheng used the purified Demon Monarch Arm as the main material.
After being purified by the Gate of Light and Darkness, the energy fluctuations of the Demon Monarch Arm shrank quite a bit, but it still possessed the level of a Low Grade World Wonder; the key was that its bones were extremely hard, even better than the Jade Bone of a Double-Character King.
Besides the Demon Monarch Arm, Li Zhangsheng also prepared a large amount of Shoushan Red Copper, intending to condense this batch of Shoushan Red Copper into higher-quality Copper Essence, and then use the bones of the Demon Monarch Arm as the base and the Shoushan Red Copper Copper Essence as the supplement.
This time it was relatively pure and did not require too many types of materials.
After the preparations were completed, Li Zhangsheng took out the Dragon Phoenix Burning Heaven Cauldron and began to refine the counterfeit ancient lamp.
This time, Li Zhangsheng only spent half a day to complete the refining; the whole process could be described as smooth sailing, and he finally obtained a copper ancient lamp.
The Restrictions of this counterfeit ancient lamp were almost identical to those of the Hunyuan Golden Lamp and Doushuai Silver Lamp, but there were also slight differences, which allowed it to trigger more powerful strength after being combined into the Three Talents Lamp.
The only pity was that due to the limitations of the materials, the counterfeit ancient lamp only reached the Mid-grade World Wonder level, clearly a grade short of Zifu Qizhen.
However, just as Li Zhangsheng expected, after activating the Exotic Treasure Burial Technique, the power of the counterfeit copper lamp would temporarily reach the Zifu Qizhen level, and combined with the other authentic ancient lamps, it would become Li Zhangsheng's trump card for saving his life.
Although Li Zhangsheng's Gate of Light and Darkness reached the Langhuan Supreme Treasure level, it was a purely auxiliary Langhuan Supreme Treasure, and in fierce battles, it could only strengthen the combat power of Light and Darkness Attribute Spirit Beasts.
As for the Biluohuangquan Twin Swords, the Biluo Sword was still in a damaged state; even if the twin swords were combined, they were still a line away from being a Langhuan Supreme Treasure, but that very line represented a significant gap in power compared to a true Langhuan Supreme Treasure.
After refining the counterfeit copper lamp, Li Zhangsheng nurtured it in his Consciousness Sea.
Li Zhangsheng did not continue to stay in the Secret Realm; he prepared to come out of seclusion to inspect the gains of the past month or so.
In addition to the output from the Langya Kingdom, Dai Kingdom, and Xi Kingdom, there were even more offerings to Li Zhangsheng from major forces or individuals.
According to Zuo Qiulin, after the craze of these one or two months, the subsequent trend began to level off.
The offerings this time were not insignificant; Li Zhangsheng only paid with Emperor Flowing Plasma quotas and certain resources to obtain a large number of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures, wild Spirit Beasts, and corpses that met his requirements.
In terms of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures, the biggest gain was a piece of ore called Nine Nether Cold Crystal Iron; this was a top-tier Ice Attribute material, and its grade even reached the Mid-grade World Wonder level, enough to compare to Blood Phoenix Black Gold.
It is rumored that Nine Nether Cold Crystal Iron is a specialty of the Underworld. Nowadays, the Underworld is extremely chaotic, with factions standing in great numbers, led by various Ghost Emperors and Ghost Sovereigns; the more famous ones include Zhu Jiuyin, Di Ting, Guiche, and so on.
Even the Three Sovereigns and Six Emperors did not want to get involved; the key was that they were willing but lacked the strength, mainly because they were entangled by the Abyss, so where would they have the spare energy to develop the Underworld?
The key is that the rules of the Underworld are quite peculiar; once one stays for a long time, they will be gradually assimilated and eventually become a part of the Underworld, making it difficult to leave the Underworld again.
Besides the Nine Nether Cold Crystal Iron, there were various other Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures, though none reached the level of World Wonder or Top-tier Spiritual Plant, but for Li Zhangsheng, they were also very good supplements.
In terms of wild Spirit Beasts, the number of Vigorous Grade Spirit Beasts meeting the requirements exceeded the count of one hand, not to mention Spirit Beasts with other Bloodline concentrations; there were a total of several hundred of them.
In addition, according to Li Zhangsheng's requirements, there were also a few Wind Civets and Fei Fei among them.
As quasi-gods, Wind Civets and Fei Fei are naturally very popular with Monster Tamers. As for whether the Monster Tamers who offered them captured them from the wild themselves or snatched them from others through various means, that was not something Li Zhangsheng could know.
Li Zhangsheng silently estimated that, according to his calculations, as long as he extracted part of the blood from this batch of Wind Civets and Fei Fei, plus his previous inventory, he could refine enough Spirit Essence to allow Yuangungun to evolve.
In addition to Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures and wild Spirit Beasts, there were also knowledge-based products such as pill formulas, artifact refining catalogs, food recipes, Monster Taming Arts, Secret Techniques, and Spirit Essence extraction methods, which could effectively improve Li Zhangsheng's foundation.
Among them, what Li Zhangsheng valued most was a Top-tier Spirit Beast food recipe; if Spirit Beasts consumed it for a long time, it could effectively improve their agility, which counted as an unexpected joy.
In order to make more Monster Tamers willingly offer treasures, Li Zhangsheng specially met with the two Monster Tamers who offered the Nine Nether Cold Crystal Iron and the Top-tier Spirit Beast food recipe, and while emphasizing his praise for them, he also issued heavy rewards and was willing to provide free resources sufficient to help them become Pseudo-Kings.
It is believed that once this matter spreads, those Monster Tamers who are bent on reaching the sky in one step will definitely be more attentive, and the situation of offerings, which was originally tending to level off, will re-enter an explosive period.
It took a full few days for Li Zhangsheng to finish the purification, and it did not exceed his expectations; he obtained enough Spirit Essence to allow Yuangungun to evolve again.
