What kind of Postnatal Spiritual Treasures can be forged?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That depends on what type you need. I recommend domain-sealing type Postnatal Spiritual Treasures. Of course, you could also choose a sword or shield - it's entirely up to your needs. However, offensive treasures require the least materials, defensive ones slightly more, while domain-sealing types consume enormous amounts of materials, possibly over ten times that of offensive types,\" Su Yuan replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Xuefeng gritted his teeth: \"I need domain-sealing Postnatal Spiritual Treasures, preferably perfectly compatible with my Ten Thousand Miles Frozen Divine Ability!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan smiled calmly: \"No problem. But you'll need to provide the materials yourself. For such treasures, more materials are always better. With high-quality materials, a 24-layer Law Restriction treasure might achieve effects comparable to 25 layers!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Xuefeng nodded and handed Su Yuan a storage ring. \"These are my lifelong accumulated materials. I entrust them all to you, Fellow Daoist. Please do your best in forging.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan instinctively sent his divine sense into the ring. The next moment, he saw a mountain of materials the size of a star - comparable to his previous life's sun!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan gasped inwardly - he hadn't expected such an enormous quantity!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan said in surprise: \"Fellow Daoist Xuefeng, I didn't expect you to trust me so much! This is an extraordinary amount of materials!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Xuefeng replied: \"To be honest, I've investigated you. While I couldn't trace your past, I discovered your remarkable abilities - freely teleporting between worlds with methods comparable to Great Luo, selling so many Postnatal Spiritual Treasures at low prices. You're undoubtedly a true master who wouldn't covet my meager materials. I believe I'm not qualified to taint your Dao Heart.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Xuefeng's heart shook as he laughed loudly: \"Master is indeed straightforward!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two signed a forging contract.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan saw Leader Xuefeng out of the Seven Stars Pagoda.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning back, he began inventorying the materials Xuefeng had given him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The total value of materials in the storage ring reached a staggering 30,000 six-star coins, astonishing Su Yuan. This Xuefeng had deep background indeed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a wave of his hand, Su Yuan transferred all materials into the Myriad Treasures Heaven-Earth Cauldron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then instructed Su Qian: \"Quickly refine them all!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Qian stared dumbfounded: \"M-master, what did you say? Aren't these materials for the forging order you just accepted? You're going to refine them all now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan waved dismissively: \"That's tens of thousands of years away. No hurry. Without time acceleration, I'm not even a hundred years old yet. Why worry about matters tens of thousands of years later? Let's refine these resources first!\"This content belongs to NoveIꜰire.net\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Qian gasped sharply. He thought he was unscrupulous, but Su Yuan surpassed him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was using others' resources to strengthen himself first, then figuring out how to fill the gap later. In simpler terms - embezzlement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Extremely impressed, Su Qian began rapidly refining the treasures from the storage ring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main material was Billion-Year Profound Ice Iron. After initial refinement, this material alone already rivaled Golden Immortal artifacts in power - truly nourishing to refine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After some time, Song Cai came to report on Golden Immortal orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over three hundred Golden Immortals had placed orders for low-grade Postnatal Spiritual Treasures and pills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yuan accepted them all, gaining even more materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These materials he intended to properly forge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having Song Cai stop accepting orders, Su Yuan returned to the Nine Suns Spirit Devouring Array, summoning the Myriad Treasures Heaven-Earth Cauldron for forging and alchemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, in the Xuefeng Legion:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Numerous artifacts, low-grade and mid-grade Postnatal Spiritual Treasures were distributed. Many Golden Immortal squad leaders and company commanders obtained temporary use of treasures, while the five Taiyi Golden Immortal deputy leaders also received mid-grade Postnatal Spiritual Treasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chang Lin was surprised - before he could use kickbacks to obtain a mid-grade treasure, Leader Xuefeng had already distributed one to him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Xuefeng ordered everyone to quickly refine their treasures - their military mission was imminent!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just three years later, Leader Xuefeng received orders from the Immortal Alliance headquarters:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Order 789th Legion to intercept Demon World 618th Legion's reinforcement at White Leaf Stone Domain. Must delay for at least a millennium!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon receiving the orders, Leader Xuefeng's expression darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Generally, the smaller a legion's number, the stronger it was. Demon World 618th Legion far surpassed the 789th. Being ordered to intercept them for a millennium was practically a death sentence!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Xuefeng snorted coldly and commanded: \"All forces, march!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Void Roc's star-sized body flapped its wings, stirring spatial turbulence across millions of miles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next instant, the colossal bird traversed hundreds of millions of miles!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After pausing briefly, the Void Roc flapped again, crossing another vast distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On its back, billions of cultivators meditated, preparing for war.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Heavenly Immortal soldier curiously eyed his squad leader's massive blade, whispering to a comrade: \"Old Li, do you know what grade the captain's weapon is? For three years I haven't seen him put it down!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Li replied quietly: \"That's a Xuan Immortal artifact!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soldier gasped: \"But the captain's only a True Immortal! How can he wield a Xuan Immortal blade? Does he have powerful connections?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Li said: \"No, you're uninformed. Recently many squad and company leaders got weapon upgrades. Higher-ups received new weapons, so old ones trickled down. I heard company commanders at Xuan Immortal realm are using Golden Immortal artifacts now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really? Where did these weapons come from?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look closely - some have seven-star markings. They're from some mysterious black market!\" Old Li said mysteriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soldier began secretly observing. Sure enough, some leaders' weapons bore seven-star symbols.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The 789th Legion had indeed undergone significant upgrades. Mid-high ranks received new weapons, whose old weapons then upgraded mid-low ranks, creating a ripple effect that substantially boosted the legion's overall strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Seven Stars Black Market's name began circulating among troops. Though without seeing the weapons' performance yet, soldiers remained largely unmoved - a seed planted, awaiting germination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a month's nonstop travel, the 789th Legion finally reached White Leaf Stone Domain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the spatial turbulence appeared a vast white expanse - upon closer inspection, layers of special leaf-like stones piled together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>White Leaf Stone was incredibly durable, resisting spatial erosion, yet too hard for engraving Dao patterns, making it unsuitable for treasure forging, only construction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Void Roc was enormous, but the White Leaf Stone region was vaster still. The roc landing resembled a bird perching on a giant tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the roc could rest, a massive ship tore through spatial turbulence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On its hull clearly read: Demon 618th Legion!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Xuefeng laughed angrily - perfect timing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The demon ship also spotted Xuefeng's 789th Legion on the white stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well well, it really is you, Xuefeng you fool!\" A demonic cultivator appeared at the ship's bow, laughing wildly. \"You became leader of Immortal 789th? Hahaha! Think you can stop me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leader Xuefeng frowned: \"Scarlet Spirit Demon Lord, an 'old acquaintance' from thirty thousand eras ago. Surprised you're not dead yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, how could I leave before you?\" Scarlet Spirit Demon Lord guffawed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two late-stage Taiyi Golden Immortal leaders bantered, their legions prepared for battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless cultivators poured forth from both ship and roc, like swarms from hive or anthill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shall we catch up in the spatial turbulence?\" Scarlet Spirit Demon Lord smirked coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly my wish!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two leaders transformed into streaks of light, vanishing into turbulent space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, violent combat fluctuations erupted in the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deputy leaders assumed command, deploying troops across a battlefield spanning billions of miles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Killing intent instantly permeated the air as formations took shape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chang Lin watched the opposing Taiyi Golden Immortals solemnly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both sides' Taiyi experts rose, maintaining aerial standoff - monitoring their leaders' distant battle while directing lower-ranked troops below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Golden Immortals formed combat cores or operated solo in mid-air combat zones, while lower ranks engaged in countless peripheral skirmishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chang Lin commanded: \"Attack!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, Golden Immortal level and below combat erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From above, the two semicircular armies collided, forming a taiji-like pattern across White Leaf Stone Domain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless soldiers clashed fiercely at the boundary!\u003C\u002Fp>",1369,"2026-05-30T17:32:16.605Z","2026-06-01T04:31:47.954Z",1,"novelbin.me","b697857feb9d0157ade4bce41d21f9ec6dcf94c0f6173c2af9b0f3babbf63e7a","steady-cultivation-starting-with-the-perk-work-h-chapter-165","steady-cultivation-starting-with-the-perk-work-h-chapter-163",640,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsteady-cultivation-starting-with-the-perk-work-h-cover.jpg"]
