Chapter 176: The 1st Medium Grade Immortal Artifact! (Part 1)
“Lian, Xiaoyao, you two, come to your master’s cave dwelling.”
“Yes.”
Lu Qinglian and Shen Xiaoyao heard the master’s voice transmission and hurriedly returned to Qingyun Peak.
Zhao Wuyan, seeing that the two little devils had finally left, gratefully transmitted his voice to Lu Changsheng, “Lu, I thank you. When I have time, I will bring out the fine wine that I’ve cherished for eighty years and have a hearty drink with you.”
“Zhao, you are too kind.”
Lu Changsheng did not continue to exchange pleasantries with Zhao Wuyan but took out the Heaven Rank superior cultivation technique ‘Immortal Wind Cloud Body Art’, preparing to impart this technique to his fourth disciple, Shen Xiaoyao.
Each disciple has their own strengths.
The eldest disciple, Lin Qingzhi, inheriting Lu Changsheng’s mantle, practices the Taiqing Wuji Technique, possessing the unique Everlasting Verdant Body that could perhaps last through the ages.
The second disciple, Lu Qinglian, with the Martial King Divine Physique plus the Fire Lotus True Qi, is incredibly domineering and grows stronger with battle. The reason Lu Qinglian frequently challenges the elders of Mount Shu is that the Martial King Divine Physique needs to expend physical energy for the body tempering to have a better effect.
The third disciple, Mo Huazhi, with the Body of the Literary Sage, takes an unconventional path to prove the Dao through literature.
The fourth disciple, Shen Xiaoyao, has the Pure Yang Body, impervious to all evils, and also has the Wind Spirit Root. He specializes in swordsmanship and agility, blessed with great fortune, a winner in life.
The fifth disciple, Ji Xuan, possesses the Demon God Physique and Nine-tailed Celestial Fox Bloodline and is the only direct disciple who cultivates the skills of the Demon Race, and might become a Demon God in the future.
Lu Changsheng first had Shen Xiaoyao practice the Cloud Ascension Ladder. If ‘Immortal Wind Cloud Body Art’ is combined with the ‘Cloud Ascension Ladder’, and even the future ‘Drunken Fairy Gazing Moon Step’, Shen Xiaoyao’s agility will be astonishingly fast.
“Master, Lian and the little junior brother are back.”
Lu Qinglian, seeing Lu Changsheng, beamed with joy, her eyes bright with happiness.
The master had taken her in when she was a child, her debt of gratitude to him was as enormous as if he had given her a new life.
Even when Lu Qinglian caused trouble outside, Lu Changsheng would cover for her.
Among the disciples, Lu Qinglian was the closest to Lu Changsheng, like family.
“I’ve prepared the Body Refinement Elixir; you go inside and temper your body.”
“Yes.”
Lu Qinglian, familiar with the process, went in for body refining, while Shen Xiaoyao was left behind.
“As your master said, once your cultivation technique reaches Great Perfection, I will impart to you a Heaven Rank technique.”
“Hmm.”
Shen Xiaoyao sat upright and listened attentively.
This was a rare technique indeed.
Lu Changsheng imparted the ‘Immortal Wind Cloud Body Art’ to his fourth disciple.
It took Shen Xiaoyao ten days to grasp the basics of the ‘Immortal Wind Cloud Body Art’.
[Ding, you have imparted the Heaven Rank superior technique ‘Immortal Wind Cloud Body Art’ to your disciple Shen Xiaoyao and have received the hundredfold return reward: the Immortal Rank inferior technique ‘Free and Easy Wandering Skills.’]
Lu Changsheng obtained the returned Immortal Rank inferior technique. Such a precious technique was set aside by Lu Changsheng.
He had recently acquired so many Immortal Rank inferior techniques that he simply had no time to cultivate all of them.
The techniques that Lu Changsheng was currently cultivating include the Immortal Rank mid-grade technique ‘Drunken Fairy Gazing Moon Step,’ Immortal Rank low-grade techniques ‘Primordial Sword Scripture,’ ‘Hundredfold Desolate Force,’ ‘Taiqing Wuji Technique,’ ‘Nine Revolutions Divine Demon Body Refining Skills,’ the Heaven Rank Sword Array ‘Tiangang Sword Formation,’ and the rankless ‘Yin Yang Dual Cultivation Skills.’
The ‘Supreme Purity Limitless Technique’ and ‘Free and Easy Wandering Skills’ are techniques of the same level; there was no need to cultivate another technique of the same level.
Lu Changsheng took out some treasures and rewarded his disciples.
“This Innate Spiritual Treasure Flying Sword, the ‘Dragon Spring Sword,’ an inferior-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, I award to you as a magic treasure.”
Lu Changsheng took out an Innate Spirit Treasure as the main magical treasure for Shen Xiaoyao to use in battle, replacing the Acquired Spirit Treasure “Gentle Finger Sword”.
[Ding, you have bestowed the low-grade Innate Spirit Treasure “Dragon Spring Sword” upon your disciple Shen Xiaoyao, and received a 700-fold return reward as a mentor: an upper-grade Innate Spirit Treasure “Seven-Star Sword”.]
Lu Changsheng now had one more upper-grade Innate Spirit Treasure to add to his sword array.
Using upper-grade Innate Spirit Treasures as the most basic units for the sword array, with two Immortal Swords as the core, such extravagance was indeed luxurious.
Apart from Flying Swords, Lu Changsheng would also bestow other magical treasures.
In order to procure some unique treasures, Lu Changsheng specially went to the Treasure Pavilion of Mount Shu in search of special items, such as millennium ginsengs, Positive Yang Mirrors, and so on.
[Ding, you have awarded your disciple Shen Xiaoyao the medicinal material “Millennium Ginseng”, gaining a 100-fold return reward as a mentor: the “Ginseng King” of ten thousand years.]
[Ginseng King of Ten Thousand Years: A monarch among millennia aged spiritual ginsengs, which can be directly refined for its medicinal power, used to increase cultivation level, or as a Body Refinement Elixir.]
Lu Changsheng, who was cultivating the fourth layer of the Nine Revolutions Divine Demon Body Refining Skills, was in need of such a Ginseng King.
“This is a special magical treasure, the ‘Positive Yang Mirror.’ With your Pure Yang Body, you can wield this treasure to overcome all sorts of malevolent energies and evil beings.”
Divination mirrors are a particular type of magical treasure with relatively special uses.
Mount Shu has a low-grade Immortal Artifact, the “Gallbladder Mirror,” which is used to discern the aptitude of mortals when selecting disciples for the sect.
Lu Changsheng spent tens of thousands of Sect Contribution Points to exchange for this treasure.
The Positive Yang Mirror, an upper-grade Acquired Spirit Treasure with Yang properties, might not be as powerful as an Innate Spirit Treasure, but it was exceptionally well-suited for Shen Xiaoyao with his Pure Yang Body.
Pure Yang Qi infused into the Positive Yang Mirror could sweep aside various heterodox paths and restrain the four Demon Sects.
Shen Xiaoyao’s Pure Yang Body combined with the destiny of the Son of Fortune practically made him the bane of the Demon Sects.
Shen Xiaoyao received the treasure about half the size of a palm, warm as jade, with the Sun Totem carved in the center of the mirror.
When Pure Yang Qi was channeled into the Positive Yang Mirror, the treasure projected a dazzling, invisible Pure Yang Fire.
Shen Xiaoyao, unaware of the treasure’s purpose, inadvertently directed the Pure Yang Fire at Lu Changsheng.
However, Lu Changsheng remained unharmed: “Do not carelessly direct this object at others.”
The treasure could only overcome all sorts of malevolent energies and evil beings, and it had no effect on the upright and righteous Lu Changsheng.
“This disciple has been disrespectful.”
Shen Xiaoyao quickly withdrew his Pure Yang True Qi.
Lu Changsheng cautioned, “Now that you know the purpose of this treasure, you must not use it against your junior sister. She has the Demon God Physique, and your Pure Yang Qi would restrain her. Should you employ the mirror against her, her Primordial Spirit might suffer harm.”
“The disciple understands, thank you for the reminder, Master,” said Shen Xiaoyao, who came to realize he seemed to have become the nemesis of the Demon Sects and the Demon Race, such was the domineering nature of the Pure Yang Body.
Certainly, the master is an exemplary figure of the Righteous Dao, without a hint of evil thoughts.
Seeing the Positive Yang Mirror ineffective against his master, Shen Xiaoyao’s admiration grew.
[Ding, you have bestowed the upper-grade Acquired Spirit Treasure “Positive Yang Mirror” upon your disciple Shen Xiaoyao, gaining a 300,000-fold return reward as a mentor: a middle-grade Immortal Artifact “Mysterious Fire Mirror”.]
“What!!! A middle-grade Immortal Artifact!!!”
Having scavenged some special treasures from the Treasure Pavilion of Mount Shu for mentoring purposes, Lu Changsheng simply wanted to try his luck to see if he could obtain some additional unique treasures.
Lu Changsheng had not anticipated that the casual giving of an Acquired Spirit Treasure would trigger a 300,000-fold return reward.
This was the first middle-grade Immortal Artifact he received!
The system still had a very low probability of returning a middle-grade Immortal Artifact, yet unexpectedly, such a treasure was returned to him inadvertently.
