Chapter 1796 Immortal Refining Artifacts

Jiao'er looked at everyone and said, "Next, we can't be idle. I need time to consolidate my Golden Immortal Dao Fruit and refine my natal immortal artifact. The upgrade of the Immortal Refining Array must be accelerated. The ninth-order immortal array is our only barrier against Golden Immortal level threats in the future! In addition, the organization of cultivation techniques, talent cultivation, and resource integration must all be accelerated! We must strengthen ourselves as much as possible before the enemy arrives again!"

"Yes!" Everyone agreed in unison.

A race against time, concerning the life and death of the nine divine realms, has begun.

The Abyss of Beginning Demons, the Blood Bone Plains, the secret stronghold of the Gray Bone Alliance.

The space rippled slightly, and a figure appeared—it was Old Slick.

As soon as he appeared, the slightly tired demonic fetus immediately stepped forward: "Senior, you're back. How is the master doing?"

The old slick man waved his hand, indicating that it was alright, and quickly informed the demon fetus of the current situation in the Nine Realms and Zhang Xuan's arrangements.

Upon hearing this, the demonic fetus's expression turned solemn: "Intercepting and killing the immortal mechanism of the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Evils is an extremely perilous mission..."

"I need to immediately go into seclusion to attempt to break through to True Immortal!" the old slickman declared decisively. "Pass down the order: the Gray Bone Alliance will immediately enter a state of hibernation, reduce external activities, and strengthen defenses. You will temporarily handle all affairs. No one is to disturb my seclusion without my permission!"

"Yes!" The demonic fetus nodded emphatically. "I wish you success soon, senior, and that your sword will slay the immortals!"

The old fox said no more and turned to walk into the secluded training area that had been prepared in the depths of the quiet room.

Within the forbidden area, the spirit-gathering array was operating at full capacity, and the dense spiritual energy was almost liquefied.

On the central jade platform, various rare resources accumulated by the old oil slicker over a century are displayed.

He sat down cross-legged, his gaze calm and serene.

"Within a hundred years, I will surely become a true immortal! Within two hundred years, I will slay all evil with my sword!"

He drank the prepared elixir in one gulp.

boom--

The immense medicinal power exploded, beginning to challenge the barrier of a half-step True Immortal!

Nine divine realms.

Inside the Ice Crystal Palace, within a core secret realm.

Zhang Xuan and Jiao'er sat facing each other.

In the center of the palace, forty-seven broken immortal artifacts floated.

These magical artifacts come in various shapes and sizes: knives, swords, spears, halberds, bells, cauldrons, towers, mirrors...

Each item was once a treasured possession of the True Immortal Demon Lord. Although now broken, they still exude a chilling residual power and unique Daoist charm.

Jiao'er's icy blue eyes swept over the broken artifacts, and her clear, cold voice rang out: "For the past hundred years, I have been trying to consolidate my Golden Immortal Dao Fruit and refine these broken artifacts, but I have always been unable to find a unified Dao rhythm, let alone perfectly fuse them to forge them into a natal immortal artifact. Your mastery of military strategy is the best in the Nine Domains, and your control over immortal runes has reached a state of perfection. This matter of refining artifacts is none other than yours."

With a gentle wave of her jade hand, twenty exquisite cold jade pill bottles appeared, neatly arranged in front of Zhang Xuan: "These are twenty eighth-grade spirit pills, as payment for your help in refining my weapon."

Zhang Xuan glanced at the pill bottles and secretly admired Jiao'er's generosity.

Eighth-tier spirit pills are virtually unparalleled in the Nine Divine Realms, each one priceless, let alone twenty.

“Senior Jiao’er, you flatter me,” Zhang Xuan said solemnly. “You are the pillar of our Nine Realms, and your immortal artifact is related to the future survival of the Nine Realms. I will do my best to protect you.”

Jiao'er nodded slightly: "Do I need to assist in refining this natal immortal artifact?"

"Senior must use the Daoist essence of a Golden Immortal to provide the most core Ice Soul Dao Origin for this natal immortal artifact, and use supreme power to suppress and harmonize the mixed and violent Daoist essence and lingering thoughts of the original owners of these broken immortal artifacts."

“Yes,” Jiao’er said succinctly, “when will we begin?”

"Please, senior, first roughly classify these forty-seven broken immortal artifacts according to the Dao attributes they contain."

With a light tap of her jade finger, Jiao'er sent out streams of icy blue immortal energy, which carried away the broken immortal artifacts and quickly categorized them according to their different attributes such as metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, ice, soul, and evil.

As a Golden Immortal, she possesses an exceptionally keen sensitivity to the attributes of the Great Dao, classifying them with precision and speed.

At the same time, within Zhang Xuan's inner world, the chaotic divine sea suddenly surged with waves.

Along the path to immortality, a section near the middle suddenly burst into brilliant light.

That is where the imprint of the treasure map of the soldier tree, which has been integrated into the Immortal Path, is located.

Unlike before the fusion, the imprint of the weapon tree treasure map is no longer an independent Dao map phantom, but has completely transformed into part of the foundation of the immortal path, forming a path for forging weapons and immortality.

This immortal path is radiant with light, and its surface is naturally imprinted with countless intricate and complex immortal patterns.

In the past, four immortal runes—the Palace Immortal Rune, the Heaven-Burning Immortal Rune, and the Myriad Realms Bridge Immortal Rune—were brought out from the Rakshasa Immortal Cauldron, along with ten thousand other immortal runes, surging forth like rivers flowing into the sea.

The Great Dao resonates, and the immortal patterns merge.

At this moment, he has the entire Immortal Path as his backing, and the Great Dao Tree governing all the true meanings of the myriad paths as his resources, making his control over all kinds of immortal runes even more effortless.

Jiao'er has completed the initial classification of the damaged immortal artifacts.

Zhang Xuan opened his eyes, his gaze sharp as lightning: "Senior, we can begin. The first step is for you to use your Golden Immortal power to purify and strip away the lingering resentment and violent aura of the original owners from these broken artifacts, leaving only their purest material essence and the imprint of the Great Dao attributes!"

"good."

With a soft shout, Jiao'er unleashed a burst of icy blue Daoist energy, and the vast, star-like power of a Golden Immortal flowed around her.

She raised her hands slightly, and the forty-seven broken immortal artifacts trembled in unison, emitting an unwilling hum.

One after another, streams of lingering malevolent energy, some pitch black, some blood red, and some ghastly green, struggled out from the wreckage of the immortal artifact, emitting shrill screams as they attempted to retaliate.

However, under the absolute suppression of Jiao'er's Golden Immortal domain, these lingering evil energies melted and vanished as quickly as ice and snow exposed to the scorching sun.

Jiao'er's Ice Soul Dao is extremely yin and cold, yet also extremely pure and clean, and is most adept at freezing and purifying all evil and filth.

In just half a day, all the lingering resentment and malevolent energy were completely swept away.

Although the forty-seven broken immortal artifacts were still damaged, the light they emitted had become much purer, leaving only the Daoist radiance of the materials themselves and the Daoist attribute imprints they contained.

“The second step,” Zhang Xuan said in a deep voice, “is for you to use the origin of the Ice Soul Dao to infuse these pure material essences, laying the foundation of the Ice Soul Dao! At the same time, use the power of the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit to initially melt them and transform them into the original liquid of the artifact embryo.”

Jiao'er nodded and exhaled a wisp of condensed, azure-blue primordial energy.

It was that wisp of ancient ice essence that she refined when she became a Golden Immortal!

The azure primordial energy was divided into forty-seven streams, each of which entered one of the broken immortal artifacts.

buzzing...

The remnants of the immortal artifact emitted a series of buzzing sounds, and the damaged parts on the surface began to slowly wriggle, making the material more crystal clear, with faint ice-blue veins forming inside.

At the same time, Jiao'er's immense Golden Immortal power transformed into an invisible flame of creation, enveloping all the broken artifacts.

This is no ordinary fire, but a Great Dao furnace powered by the Dao Fruit of a Golden Immortal!

Under the forging of the Great Dao Furnace, the forty-seven broken immortal artifacts began to slowly melt, transforming into clumps of strange artifact embryo liquid with different colors, all containing icy blue veins.

Each clump of primordial liquid retains most of the essence and Dao attributes of its original materials, yet it has been initially infused and harmonized by the Ice Soul Origin.
