Chapter 555: Chapter 283: Golden! Lifebound Treasure
It is also because of the dramatic loss of the Fusang Divine Tree’s spirituality and the absence of heavenly fire. Had the heavenly fire appeared, it could have continuously worn away the demonic energy.
"No rush, take it slow. Moreover, this purified demonic energy is an excellent material for body refining."
Lin Chang’an muttered to himself, revealing an expression of exhaustion at this moment.
Crafting this Lifebound Treasure was too tiring.
"First, use your Golden Light Divine Flame to nourish this section."
After leaving a sentence, Lin Chang’an wearily left the cave.
Inside the cave, the towering Fusang Divine Tree had a thick section of its trunk connected to the roots, gleaming with golden light.
Upon seeing this, the Phoenix Cry Bird’s eyes shined even brighter.
This was a radiant golden light!
Without a hint of hesitation, it landed directly on the golden section, greedily rubbing its feathers against it, enjoying it.
In its delight, flames even began to rise from its entire body.
...
Meanwhile, Lin Chang’an returned to his abode, for once clearing his mind and peacefully slept for half a month before awakening.
[Lifespan: 167/604]
[Realm: Core Golden Early Stage (31/100)]
"I didn’t expect that it would take two full years to craft the Lifebound Treasure in closed-door cultivation!"
Upon awakening, Lin Chang’an felt invigorated. His powerful Self-Healing Body had restored all his fatigue, even the exhaustion of his spirit.
Though it took two years of closed-door cultivation to craft the Lifebound Treasure, in reality, he had been preparing for it since reaching the Core Formation stage.
It can be said that it took more than twenty years to complete it.
"Even though the loss of spiritual energy was significant, this Lifebound Treasure has still greatly enhanced my combat power."
As Lin Chang’an raised his hand, a beam of golden light flew from the rear of the abode.
"Master!" Following the golden light, the Phoenix Cry Bird anxiously glared at its nest again and ran away.
"It’s fine."
Lin Chang’an shook his head with a smile, while the Phoenix Cry Bird woefully perched on his shoulder, its small eyes darting around, realizing there was no way around it.
Being under the eaves, one has to lower their head, especially when it is the master’s Lifebound Treasure.
The Golden Patterned Ancient Sword in his palm was entirely golden but did not appear ostentatious. Instead, it possessed a reserved and ancient feel.
With a light flick of his finger, it emitted a clear metallic resonance, bringing a satisfied look to Lin Chang’an’s face.
After a thousand years, the Fusang Divine Tree itself becomes as hard as black iron and can produce metallic sounds of resonance.
"This durability far exceeds ordinary Tier Three Magical Treasures."
He raised his hand, summoning a Tier Three Middle Grade sword-shaped magical treasure into his palm, which was given to him by that Divine Sword Sect remnant last time.
He felt no remorse over this treasure.
After all, the treasures of Divine Sword Sect remnants are inherently unsavory, and he intended to refine it anew once his skills improved.
In Lin Chang’an’s eager gaze,
the two treasures purely collided once.
After the collision of blood and gold, the Sun-piercing Divine Sword remained unscathed, while the other treasure emitted a rare wailing sound.
Although it was undamaged, they were simply not on the same level. With full force, there would definitely be damage.
Witnessing this scene, Lin Chang’an was astounded, and the Phoenix Cry Bird was heartbroken.
"Its durability far exceeds those of the same tier, but its sharpness is lacking, reaching only the Tier Three Upper Grade level, as this treasure is not known for sharpness."
With flickering eyes, Lin Chang’an could naturally feel the situation within his Lifebound Treasure since it was one with him, and he wasn’t disappointed.
Sun-piercing Divine Sword! Just from its name, it’s clear its forte lies in penetration, and its increased spirituality nurtures spiritual fire.
This is the true Sun-piercing Divine Sword, presently just a diminished version.
"Judging by the concentration of the treasure’s spiritual light, it can only be considered a Tier Three Middle Grade Treasure."
Currently, it can only be said to be quite durable with some sharpness, which is not uncommon in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
For instance, when refining a treasure, adding some special materials like Geng Metal can increase a treasure’s durability and sharpness.
However, these materials are extremely precious, beyond the affordability of ordinary cultivators.
"If at full force, how strong is the penetration attack!?"
Thinking of this, Lin Chang’an’s eyes flickered.
He counted seals and six mana shields appeared in front of him. Then he refined the Water Spirit Pearl treasure, adding another water attribute shield.
"Swoosh!"
With a wave of his sword-wielding finger, a golden light flashed, and the five mana shields in front were instantly penetrated.
The sixth one shattered, and the seventh water attribute shield only slightly hesitated for a moment before it too instantly crumbled!
In the next moment, the Sun-piercing Divine Sword abruptly stopped in front of him.
Seeing this, the Phoenix Cry Bird’s eyes shone. It was too dazzling!
Lin Chang’an’s pupils contracted sharply, and the next moment his face erupted in joy.
The penetration damage was unexpectedly not inferior to Flying Needle-type treasures, possessing the miraculous effect of breaking protective spiritual light.
"Due to my special cultivation technique, the mana shield’s durability far exceeds that of ordinary Core Formation Early Stage cultivators, nearly comparable to the defense of Core Formation Middle Stage cultivators.
Plus the added defense from this Water Spirit Pearl treasure, yet with my best strike, it can penetrate in an instant!"
This means that facing an ordinary Core Formation Middle Stage cultivator, they would have to avoid its edge.
Unless they possessed a top-level protective treasure.
Of course, the previous Divine Sword Sect remnant doesn’t count, as he was severely injured and energy depleted. Even with a secret technique, he could only temporarily recover a bit of cultivation but couldn’t exhibit the full strength of the Core Formation Middle Stage.
Otherwise, how could he have been easily slain?
However, after the excitement, Lin Chang’an quickly calmed down.
"But I must not be careless. In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, who knows how many prodigies there are. Those top sects and major powers have powerful cultivation techniques and divine techniques that are equally formidable, while I am merely in the remote Five Dragons Island sea region.
My comparison is only with these common Core Formation cultivators; I’ve never encountered those true prodigies."
In the fragments of memory left by this Core Golden peak true person, there was often apprehension and envy when confronting such prodigies.
The Immortal Cultivation Realm is vast, and according to what he heard, those top techniques and divine techniques are absolutely not weak.
At this thought, Lin Chang’an’s budding heroic spirit gradually faded away, leaving only steadiness.
"It’s time to come out of retreat, judging by the time, these juniors should be arriving soon."
Thinking this, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but smile.
