Chapter 1496: Refining the Biluohuangquan Twin Swords (Second Update, requesting all)

This also exhausted the four-clawed silver dragon, which had almost no time to rest, constantly trapped in a cycle of output—recovery—output.

After initially digesting and mastering the "Supreme Nine Vaults Myriad Dao Artifact Refining Art," Li Zhangsheng believed that even if he were not the equal of the Heavenly Emperor, the gap would likely not be very large.

Consequently, Li Zhangsheng intended to refine some supreme treasures.

First, upgrade the Original Light.

Not long ago, Li Zhangsheng had obtained a precious material from the Underworld, and combined with some matching fragments of broken Strange Treasures, it was sufficient to elevate the grade of the Original Light.

The entire process was not complicated and could be described as completely smooth sailing; once the Original Light finished being re-refined, its rank officially reached the Zifu Qizhen level, and it was even a Top-Grade Purple Mansion Rare Treasure—one step further would be a Langhuan Supreme Treasure.

However, a clever housewife cannot cook without rice; Li Zhangsheng did not have better soul-type materials on hand, and he feared that even if the Heavenly Emperor were resurrected, it would be impossible to promote the Original Light to a Langhuan Supreme Treasure.

Compared to before, the effects of the Original Light were much more powerful, and it now possessed four effects: soul-searching, sealing, nourishing, and soul-bewitching.

The first three go without saying; soul-bewitching was a new effect obtained after the Original Light was promoted, which could temporarily bewitch a soul, providing convenience for soul-searching.

Of course, the effect of soul-bewitching mainly depends on the opponent's realm, soul density, and willpower; the higher these three are, the worse the effect of soul-bewitching becomes, and it is even possible for it to have no effect at all.

To Li Zhangsheng, this was an unexpected surprise; he could obtain more information about the hundred-headed dragon from it, and perhaps there might even be its perceptions regarding Heaven and Earth Status.

The next moment, Li Zhangsheng took out the Donghua Qingmu Cishan stone and skillfully refined it into a magnetic mountain; perhaps benefiting from his further improved artifact refining level and experience, the Donghua Qingmu Cishan reached the Top-Grade Purple Mansion Rare Treasure level, a higher grade than the other three magnetic mountains, which were only High-Grade Purple Mansion Rare Treasures.

Seeing this situation, Li Zhangsheng immediately took out the Southern Bright Li Fire Magnetic Mountain, the Northern Underworld Aurora Magnetic Mountain, and the Central Earth Magnet Mountain, preparing to re-refine them.

Fortunately, he possessed the Universe Cauldron with its return-to-origin effect; otherwise, Li Zhangsheng truly would not have re-refined the three magnetic mountains.

It was precisely because the Universe Cauldron resolved his worries that Li Zhangsheng could refine supreme treasures without hesitation, even without having fully mastered the "Supreme Nine Vaults Myriad Dao Artifact Refining Art."

Of course, return-to-origin still entails a certain amount of consumption, but this was within Li Zhangsheng's capacity to bear.

Re-refining the three magnetic mountains was not difficult, and Li Zhangsheng completed the re-refining in half a day.

Without any surprises, the three magnetic mountains successfully reached the Top-Grade Purple Mansion Rare Treasure level.

Due to their grade, these four magnetic mountains were far less useful to Li Zhangsheng than the God-Slaying Spear or the dragon-headed staff, and he usually only used them when transforming into the hundred-armed giant.

But if he were to collect the final magnetic mountain, it would be different; Li Zhangsheng could fuse the five magnetic mountains into the Five Extremes Mountain, and in coordination with his Great Five Elements Technique, it could absolutely unleash unimaginable power.

Therefore, Li Zhangsheng was very expectant of the Five Extremes Mountain; he now controlled or radiated influence over the entire Heavenly Court, most of the mortal realm, and the Four Seas. With heavy rewards, there must be brave men; he believed that finding the fifth magnetic mountain or its materials would not be difficult, merely a matter of how much time it would take.

After retracting the four magnetic mountains, Li Zhangsheng took out an entire corpse of Jumang, preparing to refine a wood-type Top-Grade Hun Kun Stone.

This Jumang corpse had lost some blood; to avoid lowering the grade of the Hun Kun Stone, Li Zhangsheng had to sprinkle several jars of Gou Mang Essence Blood onto it and began refining the Hun Kun Stone according to a special method.

As long as he refined the wood-type Top-Grade Hun Kun Stone, Li Zhangsheng would possess four types of top-grade Hun Kun Stones: wood, fire, water, and earth. At that time, he would only need to gather one gold-element Top-Grade Hun Kun Stone to refine the top-grade Four Swords of God-Slaying and the Sword Array Diagram.

There were not many gold-element Top-tier Divine Beasts, and Li Zhangsheng did have one on hand—the corpse of the hundred-headed dragon—but the corpse of the hundred-headed dragon was very useful, and coupled with the lack of materials like dragon scales, dragon horns, and dragon claws, he had no intention of refining it into a Hun Kun Stone.

Most importantly, the hundred-headed dragon was, after all, a Unique Divine Beast; rather than using it to refine a gold-element Top-Grade Hun Kun Stone, it was more practical to extract its Spirit Essence.

Li Zhangsheng had a plan in mind: if he could not find a Spirit Beast possessing the bloodline of the hundred-headed dragon, he would find a high-quality dragon, infuse it with a trace of the hundred-headed dragon's Spirit Essence, then use various treasures to let this dragon's hundred-headed dragon bloodline reach the Great Accomplishment stage, and finally infuse the extracted Spirit Essence.

By that time, even if it could not evolve into a hundred-headed dragon, the difference would not be very large.

Besides this, Li Zhangsheng also planned to bestow some Spirit Beasts with the hundred-headed dragon's Spirit Essence, then use Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure to increase their bloodline concentration, and finally bleed them to extract the hundred-headed dragon's Spirit Essence.

The reason he had not done so before was, firstly, insufficient resources; secondly, it was troublesome; and thirdly, it was time-consuming.

Now that Li Zhangsheng occupied the entire Heavenly Court, there were several resource points within it that birthed treasures for bloodline metamorphosis. Although there were no bloodline metamorphosis treasures of the caliber of True Spirit Essence or Linglong Precious Pearl, they were still enough to easily allow the Spirit Beasts' bloodlines to reach the Vigorous stage.

At the same time, Li Zhangsheng had another concern: the hundred-headed dragon's bloodline was too tyrannical, and he did not know if an ordinary dragon could withstand it; it would still require experimentation.

Now was not the time; at the very least, he had to wait until the hundred-headed dragon's Heaven and Earth Status had completely dissipated.

Using a special method, Li Zhangsheng successfully refined the Jumang corpse and Essence Blood into a crystal-clear green crystal, without a single speck of impurity, and the phantom of Jumang was faintly visible.

This was the wood-type Top-Grade Hun Kun Stone, and its quality seemed to be two or three parts better than the other three.

This might be because Jumang was not at the bottom among Top-tier Divine Beasts, or it might be due to the Gou Mang Essence Blood.

Li Zhangsheng put away the wood-type Top-Grade Hun Kun Stone with satisfaction, then immediately took out the Biluohuangquan Twin Swords.

The Biluohuangquan Twin Swords were covered in notches of varying sizes, giving the impression of two serrated swords; these were the wounds caused by the Blood Emperor's Blood Slaughter Meditation Prison Twin Swords.

The Blood Slaughter Meditation Prison Twin Swords were of a higher grade, not to mention their hardness and sharpness.

The Biluohuangquan Twin Swords combined were barely at the Lower Rank Langhuan Supreme Treasure level, and separated, they fell directly out of the Langhuan Supreme Treasure rank; meanwhile, even separated, the Blood Slaughter Meditation Prison Twin Swords were two Mid-grade Langhuan Supreme Treasure level swords—the gap could be said to be very obvious.

It was only because the struggle with the Blood Emperor had been too short; otherwise, the Biluohuangquan Twin Swords might truly have been cut in two.

Besides the Biluohuangquan Twin Swords, Li Zhangsheng also took out the broken Dragon-Phoenix Resonating Ruler.

One end of the Dragon-Phoenix Resonating Ruler was Yang and the other was Yin; the Yang side had a five-clawed golden dragon's Dragon Soul, and the Yin side had a Fire Phoenix's Phoenix Soul, and both were complete Dragon Souls and Phoenix Souls.

Even though the Dragon-Phoenix Resonating Ruler was broken, the Dragon Soul and Phoenix Soul were not damaged, and Li Zhangsheng prepared to return it to its origin and fuse it into the Biluohuangquan Twin Swords.
