Chapter 910: Qiankun Immeasurable Bell and the Nine Nether Suppression Technique (First update,)

"Hoo!"

Li Changsheng let out a light sigh of relief, a brilliant smile blooming on his face.

This time, he had bet correctly; the Clear Heart and Stabilizing Spirit Bell had just reached the level of a Mid-grade World Wonder.

"It is also fortunate that I added the Divine Beast Essence Blood, otherwise it likely would not have reached the Mid-grade rank!"

Li Changsheng thought to himself. Using Divine Beast Essence Blood to temper a Strange Treasure was a method recorded in the Artifact Refining Canon authored by the King of a Hundred Refinements, which could enhance the power of a Strange Treasure.

However, Divine Beast Essence Blood was incredibly precious. Even though the King of a Hundred Refinements was the most powerful artifact refining grandmaster of his time, he had not tempered items with it many times in his life, and the amount used for tempering was always measured in bottles—unlike Li Changsheng, who was so extravagant and used such a wide variety, covering almost every type of Divine Beast.

After it cooled, Li Changsheng picked up the Clear Heart and Stabilizing Spirit Bell. Although its volume had increased significantly, it was still only about a foot tall, yet it weighed over a thousand catties.

Li Changsheng lifted the Clear Heart and Stabilizing Spirit Bell with ease and began to inspect the functions of this Mid-grade World Wonder.

The original two functions of the Clear Heart and Stabilizing Spirit Bell—clearing the heart and suppressing the soul—had been retained, and their effects were more than a grade stronger.

In addition, functions for suppression, sound waves, and refining Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind had been added.

Among these, if the target of the suppression was a Demon Pet with the Divine Beast Bloodline used to temper the bell's body, the effect would be even more remarkable.

The sound waves were even harder to guard against, especially since it was an area-of-effect attack; not only was it extremely difficult to dodge, but it was also prone to causing effects like dizziness and tremors.

The function of refining Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind went without saying; it was somewhat similar to the Five-Colored Divine Light of the Five-Colored Peacock, though the targeted energies were slightly different.

Besides these, the Clear Heart and Stabilizing Spirit Bell naturally possessed the ability to enlarge and shrink, and at critical moments, it could even cover him to defend against external attacks.

Simply put, this was a multi-functional World Wonder.

The only pity was that, perhaps because it was man-made, the Clear Heart and Stabilizing Spirit Bell did not produce any materials and belonged to the category of pure Strange Treasures.

Perhaps because there were too many miscellaneous functions, the various abilities of the Clear Heart and Stabilizing Spirit Bell were slightly inferior to Strange Treasures of the same grade.

Even so, it was clearly superior to a Lower-Grade World Wonder.

"I should change the name!"

Looking at the more than one hundred Divine Beast patterns on the bell's body, as well as its various powers, Li Changsheng felt that calling it the Clear Heart and Stabilizing Spirit Bell was no longer appropriate.

"Let's call it the Qiankun Immeasurable Bell!"

Li Changsheng turned the thought over in his mind, pondered for a moment, and made his decision.

After putting away the Qiankun Immeasurable Bell, Li Changsheng's figure suddenly vanished and appeared inside the Dangkang Xianglian Kongjian.

The Water Shadow Light-Splitting Tree had been replanted, separated by a distance from the Tree of Life, the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree, and the Xuanqiong Five-Colored Glazed Fruit Tree.

If one counted the Red Fire Dragon Scale Fruit Tree in the Fire Flame Secret Realm, Li Changsheng possessed a total of five Top-Grade Spiritual Roots.

However, in terms of value, these five combined could not compare to spiritual roots like the Ginseng Fruit Tree, the Huangzhong Li, the Fusang Tree, or the Golden Apple Tree.

Just like World Wonders, there were also great disparities between Top-Grade Spiritual Roots.

Li Changsheng entered the Dangkang Xianglian Kongjian mainly to hasten the ripening of the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree.

If nothing went wrong, the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit could rapidly increase his Mental Power, likely allowing his Mental Power to reach its peak in a short period.

Li Changsheng came before the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree and took out a Jade Bottle containing more than ten drops of Light Spirit Pure Water gifted by Zuo Qiulin.

Under the control of his Mental Power, a drop of Light Spirit Pure Water radiating a clean luster flew out of the Jade Bottle, dripped onto the main trunk of the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree, and instantly merged into it.

In an instant, the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree began to emit light, establishing a deeper connection with the Ancient Stars in the sky, drawing down more Starlight Power than ever before, which flowed continuously into the fruits.

Although the drawn-down Starlight Power was abundant, the fruits numbered a full Great Zhou Heavenly count, so the amount of Starlight Power each fruit received was actually not much.

Crack—crack—

Just then, Li Changsheng shattered a pile of items filled with a large amount of Starlight Power, causing the concentration of star power in the Dangkang Xianglian Kongjian to rise by more than one grade.

This Starlight Power began to be absorbed by the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree, allowing each fruit to receive more Starlight Power.

However, the absorption speed of the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit was relatively limited and could not absorb too much star power at once; Li Changsheng estimated that it would take a day or two to absorb all this star power.

It was also because of this that the effect of the Light Spirit Pure Water could not be stacked and could only be maintained for one day, resulting in each spiritual root only being able to have one drop of Light Spirit Pure Water applied per day.

"That should be enough!"

Li Changsheng shook the Jade Bottle in his hand, which made a tinkling sound like large and small pearls falling onto a jade plate.

After confirming there were no issues, Li Changsheng left the Dangkang Xianglian Kongjian, preparing to cultivate together with Ning Bizhen.

Langya Kingdom, Yecheng, Imperial Palace ruins.

Unlike before, there was now a small black altar here, on which a paper doll was tied; a person's name was written on the paper doll's chest, and it was surrounded by four oil lamps floating with green flames.

The Dark Night King Dou Cangqiong stood before the altar, and an open box floated in front of him, containing some hair and fragments of flesh and blood.

These naturally came from Li Changsheng. In the fierce battle with Dou Zhangsheng, Li Changsheng naturally could not avoid any damage; in this battle, the Hundred-Armed Giant he transformed into had even lost nearly twenty outer arms.

These severed outer arms had already been retrieved by Li Changsheng and transformed back into the Spirit Essence of the Hundred-Armed Giant.

However, it was inevitable that some flesh fragments would be left behind, and because the battlefield was too large at the time and Li Changsheng did not have much time, Dou Cangqiong had managed to obtain these.

At this moment, Dou Cangqiong was performing a mysterious curse ritual, and his target was naturally Li Changsheng.

Dou Cangqiong's current achievements were related to an encounter he had in his early years. He had accidentally broken into some Ruins and luckily obtained part of the inheritance of the ancient Curse King, mastering many Demon-Taming Arts, Secret Techniques, and secret treasures related to curses.

By now, the Curse King's inheritance had been completely absorbed by the Dark Night King. After becoming a Double-Character King, the Dark Night King had almost been stagnating, and to this day, he only had one Demon Emperor Level Demon Pet.

"Although the Nine Nether Suppression Technique has some side effects, as long as it succeeds, everything is worth it!"

Dou Cangqiong held a jade plate in his hand, waiting quietly.

During this period, Dou Cangqiong naturally dared not use the Secret Technique to quickly curse Li Changsheng to death; he could only use a chronic curse to slowly torture Li Changsheng. Once the three-month deadline arrived, that would be the best time to kill Li Changsheng.

And Li Changsheng, having been struck by the Nine Nether Suppression Technique, would likely find it difficult to make any progress during this period.
