Lu Yi stared blankly at the center of the pool. There was only the stone platform that was originally used to place the ice, and the ice that was used to freeze the person who looked exactly like Senior Sister Tian Ling had already disappeared.
For a moment, the surroundings became abnormally quiet. It was so quiet that even Lu Yi's breathing sounded like a strong wind blowing.
"Dong dong dong!" This was a voice with a steady rhythm that rang in Lu Yi's ears. The voice was very soft. If it wasn't for the fact that the surroundings were very quiet, Lu Yi might not have heard it.
However, this voice seemed to be coming from his own body.
Lu Yi lowered his head and saw a pendant on his originally empty neck. Lu Yi picked up the pendant and took a closer look. He was surprised to find that this pendant was actually the ice block that was originally in the middle of the pool. The people inside were still there, but they were much more lively than before.
"Is this the sound of her heartbeat?" For some reason, Lu Yi had a strange feeling, but he couldn't put his finger on it. But that wasn't a bad thing, was it?
Thus, Lu Yi gently placed the pendant down. His movements were very gentle, afraid that he would disturb the person's deep sleep.
There was still a little bit of Earth Spirit Milk left. However, compared to this, Lu Yi was more concerned about his Heavenly Tribulation.
The heavenly tribulation seemed to be unable to enter the space at the bottom of the lake, but this did not mean that the heavenly tribulation would stop. The loud noise just now was the best proof.
The membrane that isolated the lake water was very magical. Be it water or ice, nothing could enter. However, Lu Yi could enter and exit at will.
When Lu Yi returned to the frozen lake again, it happened to be the time when the last bolt of tribulation lightning fell. Under the might of this bolt of heavenly lightning, Lu Yi did not even have the ability to think. But then, Lu Yi witnessed a magical scene. This bolt of heavenly lightning that he had no ability to resist was actually blocked by a shield.
This was the last bolt of heavenly lightning, which meant that Lu Yi had successfully passed the Golden Core Tribulation.
According to the laws, the Heavenly Dao had to give gifts to cultivators who had transcended the Heavenly Tribulation. Even if the Heavenly Dao here was unwilling, the laws of the Great Dao could not be defied, so it could only bestow the Heavenly Dao's gift.
A colorful screen of light descended from the tribulation cloud and enveloped Lu Yi. The injuries on Lu Yi's body recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye. The true essence in his body was also quickly replenished. In a few breaths, he would return to his peak state.
Not only that, because this Heavenly Tribulation was the highest Heavenly Tribulation, the Heavenly Dao's gift was far beyond ordinary circumstances. Lu Yi's Nine-Five Sutra directly rose to the late-stage Golden Core Realm, and his Floating Li Secret Manual also rose to the peak of Spirit Solitude. Even the Asura Blood Kill Scripture that he could control had reached the early stage of Spirit Silence.
The gifts of the Heavenly Dao had always been excessive for a cultivator. Moreover, there was a lot left. How much they could absorb depended on the cultivator's own ability. However, this common sense did not seem to work on Lu Yi.
When the Heavenly Bestowment descended, Lu Yi clearly felt that the lotus flower in his dantian became unusually excited. Like a whale swallowing, it absorbed all the Heavenly Bestowment that Lu Yi could not absorb.
The lotus flower that had absorbed the gift of the Heavenly Dao began to undergo some changes. Originally, the lotus flower seemed to be stunted. Now that it had absorbed the gift of the Heavenly Dao, the lotus flower finally developed normally.
There were three lotus leaves, six lotus roots, and nine petals. It was very orderly.
Although this lotus flower was currently only used for the Five Elements Spirit Body, Lu Yi believed that it was definitely more than that. Perhaps he would be shocked when it reached the final stage of its growth!
Lu Yi looked around. Because of the heavenly tribulation, the natural spirit gathering array here had been destroyed. Lu Yi went to check on the condition of the spirit vein and found that all the spirit stones inside had disappeared. This made Lu Yi's heart ache.
A small spirit vein was still a spirit vein. It was only used to resist the 6-in-9 Heavenly Tribulation of a mere Golden Core Stage cultivator. How could it consume so many spirit stones? Perhaps it was because of "Senior Martial Sister Tian Ling"?
However, there was still a little bit of earth spirit milk left, and the spiritual qi here was still very dense.
At the thought of this, Lu Yi returned to the space at the bottom of the lake.
Because the Golden Core stage had already entered a state of complete fasting, Lu Yi did not have to worry about starving at all.
Generally speaking, the realm of a self-cultivator was determined by the highest level of the cultivation method he practiced. However, this common sense did not apply to Lu Yi.
Whether it was the Nine-Five True Scripture, the Floating Li Secret Manual, or even the Asura Blood Killing Scripture, their grades were all beyond ordinary immortal level cultivation techniques. No one was convinced by the other, and each cultivation technique was very powerful and independent.
This meant that if Lu Yi wanted to cultivate three cultivation techniques at the same time, he would have to expend three times the effort. However, the benefits were also obvious. His strength was definitely not as simple as three times that of a solo cultivator.
This time, his goal was to break through to the Nascent Soul stage with the Nine-Five True Scripture and the Floating Li Secret Manual, and to break through to the Golden Core stage with the Asura Blood Kill Scripture. He would not leave seclusion until he reached his goal.
Originally, Lu Yi thought that after the purple qi in his dantian turned into a lotus flower, it would no longer snatch his internal strength. However, reality proved that he was overthinking. Half of the internal strength that Lu Yi cultivated was still snatched away by the lotus flower and turned into nutrients.
In the first two years, Lu Yi broke through the Nine-Five Sutra from the Golden Core Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage. Five golden cores naturally corresponded to five yuanying. The five Nascent Souls sat in five different spots on the lotus heads.
It also took him two years to break through from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Nascent Soul stage. This was because the Nine-Five Sutra was a body cultivation technique, and the true essence needed to break through was much more than the Floating Li Secret Manual. The Nascent Soul evolved from the Floating Li Secret Manual was located above the entire lotus.
After that, Lu Yi spent another year to cultivate the Asura's Bloody Massacre Scripture to the Golden Core Stage. The golden core was located under the lotus root.
At this point, Lu Yi's initial goal had been achieved. However, there was only a small amount of Earth Spirit Milk left.
The next step was to refine new swords and magic treasures for himself.
Speaking of which, it had to be mentioned that when he transcended the tribulation, all the things on him were basically destroyed, leaving only a storage bag. As for why the other storage bags were destroyed and only one was fine, Lu Yi guessed that it was because of the existence of the Dao Rune Blood Ore that protected the entire storage bag.
This storage bag contained the decent materials that Lu Yi had collected over the years. They could be used to refine weapons.
There was no doubt that Lu Yi would first refine a sword. Although he could use the five elements spiritual spells after regaining the five elements spirit body, sword techniques were still his main attack method.
As for the materials to refine the sword, the two pieces of blood ore that he had obtained from Maekawa Izumi and Blood Demon Lord were the best.
"I wonder if a flying sword augmented by Dao runes will directly become an immortal artifact?”Lu Yi thought in anticipation.
Lu Yi summoned his true fire and started refining. However, it took him a month to melt the two pieces of Blood Ore, another month to purify them, and another month to finally take shape.
When it finally took shape, Lu Yi originally planned to use the traditional Han sword, but the sword embryo completely ignored Lu Yi's wishes and automatically took shape.
Suddenly, the sky darkened. The familiar pressure came again.
"Celestial Artifact Tribulation!" Unless the person who forged it was a super mighty figure, it could only rely on the magic treasure itself to transcend the tribulation. The person who forged it could not help.
The new sword was augmented by Dao runes. The trifling Immortal Artifact Tribulation was just a formality, so Lu Yi was not worried that it would fail.
Just as Lu Yi had expected, even though he had been suppressed by the pressure of the Heavenly Tribulation to the point that it was difficult to breathe, the Immortal Artifact Tribulation had passed very smoothly.
However, after the immortal sword passed the Heavenly Tribulation, it suddenly released a soaring baleful aura, dyeing the sky blood-red. It also made Lu Yi, who was below, lose his mind. His mind was filled with killing.
At the critical moment, the Mystic Ice Necklace on Lu Yi's neck emitted a chill that rushed straight into Lu Yi's mind, instantly waking him up.
Lu Yi touched his necklace and smiled happily. He looked at the immortal sword in the sky again and felt a lingering fear.
"How is this an immortal sword? It's clearly a demonic sword!" Lu Yi revealed a bitter smile. Looking at the current situation, it seemed that he, the refiner, could not subdue this demonic sword of the Celestial Artifact level!
At this moment, the Mystic Ice Necklace emitted a faint glow. Just as Lu Yi was feeling deeply puzzled, he heard a " bang " and a big guy rushed out from the bottom of the lake. Lu Yi took a look. Wasn't that the stone platform that was originally used to store Xuan Bing?
At the same time, something came out of Lu Yi's storage bag and shot toward the demonic sword. It was actually a sarira.
The huge stone platform slowly became smaller and eventually turned into a scabbard. As for the sarira, it was directly embedded into the head of the demonic sword. Lu Yi could see that the demonic sword was very resistant, but there was nothing he could do. He could only be suppressed.
The suppressed immortal sword slowly landed in front of Lu Yi. Lu Yi was completely stunned. Everything that had just happened was beyond his expectations.
The change in the stone platform was understandable. After all, the appearance was extraordinary. How could an ordinary stone withstand the cold of the ten-thousand-year-old profound ice? Moreover, it was located in the center of the earth spirit milk. Even if it was really a broken stone, it would have become a treasure after years of tempering.
However, the strength of the sarira made Lu Yi somewhat confused. This sword was a Celestial Artifact! Moreover, it was an immortal artifact enhanced by Dao runes. It could almost be considered a pseudo-Connate magic treasure. However, a sarira could actually suppress the baleful aura of a fairy weapon. Could it be the sarira of Buddha?
"You're thinking too much! You're thinking too much!" Lu Yi quickly threw this thought out of his mind.
The series of encounters in the past few years were too much beyond his understanding, which made him feel that there was a pair of hands behind him, including his transmigration.
However, this thought was too terrifying. Therefore, Lu Yi would rather that all of this was a coincidence and that it was his own luck.
After he regained his senses, Lu Yi grabbed the scabbard with one hand and the sword hilt with the other. He did not feel anything unusual, so he pulled out the sword and observed it carefully. Lu Yi felt a little apprehensive when he saw this.
The sword was four feet two in length, three feet three in length and one inch eight in width.
The sword was as clear as blood jade, and there seemed to be blood flowing inside. The hilt was dark red. On both sides of the sword were the images of malevolent ghosts. The hilt was engraved with dense Daoist runes. The head of the sword was a lotus flower, and in the center of the lotus flower was a golden sarira.
The aura of this sword was like an immortal but not an immortal, like a devil but not a devil, like a Buddha but not a Buddha. However, there was no doubt that it had surpassed the level of a low-grade immortal weapon. It was at least a middle-grade immortal weapon.
A middle-grade immortal weapon refined by a Nascent Soul cultivator was definitely rare since the beginning of the world!
"This is the first Celestial Artifact I've refined. Although the process is a little unexpected, I'd better give it a name seriously! Hmm…let's call it Tongming Sword!"
"Buzz!" The immortal sword had a spirit and let out a cheerful sound. It was obviously very satisfied with this name.
Although the Tongming Sword's grade wasn't low, it seemed to be suppressed by the sarira. No, it should be said that the seal was more appropriate, so that the Tongming Sword couldn't unleash the power of an immortal artifact.
But then again, if the Tongming Sword could unleash its original power, Lu Yi would not dare to use it. The soaring baleful aura after the tribulation just now made Lu Yi deeply afraid.
After Lu Yi dripped his blood on the Tongming Sword to acknowledge it as his master, he stored it in his dantian. The immortal sword entered the lower part of his dantian directly, accompanying the Golden Core of the Asura's Blood Kill Scripture.
The sword was only the first. Lu Yi still had some things to refine.
Back when Lu Yi killed the Single-Horned Gray Lion of unknown origin, he had collected some hair and bone marrow from its horn. Lu Yi refined his fur into a large number of flying needles, while his bone marrow and some thousand-year-old ice at the bottom of the ice lake were refined into a one-time-use magic treasure, the Ice Demon Divine Thunder.
Apart from that, he had collected some high-grade spirit herbs over the years and refined them into medicinal pills. And based on the principle of not wasting, he refined some leftover materials.
(This is a scam. Fei Lu has become a monk on the Internet.) Chapter 46 only had a hundred words at most, and it wasn't a small H language segment. How could this be called a dangerous chapter?)
