Li Cheng’s array marks surfaced all over his body, continuously channeling into the tripod, while the Heaven’s Hidden Soul Nourishing Flame swept over, enveloping the pill tripod.

Such a scene astonished everyone, leaving them dumbfounded, “The junior uncle wasn’t just talking, he’s actually transforming it!”

“This is a top-quality spiritual artifact, besides the original refiner, no one else, not even an eighth-level artifact refiner, could possibly succeed in transforming it!”

“Junior uncle is probably just messing around, don’t worry, after all, he’s young. Once he’s had his fun, he’ll naturally lose interest. This is a common fault of the young.”

The senior members discussed among themselves, gradually easing their concerns, thinking that as soon as junior uncle lost interest, he would consider ascending.

After ail, the junior uncle’s Alchemy Dao and Array Path had reached their peaks, and to advance further, the only way was to become an immortal!

“Eh? Something’s not right, how is junior uncle’s True Yuan the same as that of a Loose Immortal senior?” an elder suddenly remarked.

Mu Xingzhi was startled, “Right! What’s going on? Junior uncle hasn’t undergone tribulation yet, so how come most of his True Yuan has become Immortal Yuan?”

The most likely scenario was that he had secretly started cultivating as a Loose Immortal!

Another possibility was that he had secretly passed the Fleaven Tribulation, and the True Yuan inside him had begun to transform after the purification of the tribulation.

The least likely possibility was that he had awakened some special physique, which allowed him to begin transforming Immortal Yuan even before completing the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

Collecting his thoughts, Mu Xingzhi said, “I will immediately ask the Black and White Elders to have a look!”

Li Cheng was completely engrossed in the transformation, oblivious to the discussions around him.

First was the reinforcement of the Spirit Lock Array, for how could a common Spirit Lock Array manage to contain Immortal Yuan? Therefore, it was necessary to upgrade the Spirit Lock Array.

Next, he used Sky Meteorite Stone to carve out a space within the formation, specifically to store Immortal Yuan, akin to the Dantian of cultivators.

However, changing these two aspects would affect the pill tripod as a whole, so he had to perfect the rest of the formations to maintain the balance of the various formations of the pill tripod.

After a series of operations, more than half a day had passed.

At dawn, Li Cheng’s transformation was finally nearing its end.

“Old Hei, have you figured anything out?”

“I have. Nephew Li Cheng has neither undergone tribulation nor converted to a Loose Immortal. I believe it’s more likely that he has awakened a special physique or a special cultivation technique, or perhaps it’s because he comprehended the Power of Laws, enabling him to condense Immortal Yuan prematurely without undergoing tribulation or conversion!”

Old Bai nodded, “I think so too. The nephew really is a freak, condensing Immortal Yuan without tribulation. Such cases are very rare in history.”

Black Elder chuckled, “Nephew Li Cheng is indeed extraordinary. Let’s not fret needlessly. It seems he already has his own plan.”

Mu Xingzhi became more alarmed the more he listened, “Given the junior uncle’s current state, if he attracts the Heaven Tribulation, I’m afraid the power of it might be unbearable even for a Heavenly Immortal, right?”

With Immortal Yuan already within him, the ensuing Heaven Tribulation would naturally be stronger.

Heaven Tribulation isn’t constant but varies according to the strength of the one undergoing it. The more powerful the person, the stronger the tribulation they will attract.

The Black and White Elders remained silent for a moment before Black Elder finally said, “It’s hard to say, having Immortal Yuan without having undergone tribulation is a rare case, with too few related records.”

“We needn’t worry about this. Look, it seems he has succeeded in the transformation.”

Everyone focused their gaze and saw the pill tripod radiating golden light, as a powerful aura surged towards the sky, containing a trace of immortal might!

“A demi-immortal artifact!”

“Damn, a top-quality spiritual artifact has been transformed by junior uncle into a demi-immortal artifact!” Mu Xingzhi exclaimed, his pupils constricting.

Black and White Elders, along with the other Elders, were equally shocked, their eyes wide with incredulity. This operation was somewhat unthinkable!

Old Bai was the first to regain his composure, “Mu Xingzhi, aren’t there many guests from various major forces within our sect? Why aren’t you stopping them?”

After Li Cheng finished refining the third-level Rising Yuan Pills, representatives from various forces came to visit. Although Mu Xingzhi had sent them away, some shamelessly lingered.

Moreover, in the last five days, with the Pill Tribulation descending daily, even more representatives from the major forces were drawn to it!

At this moment, they were all within the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.

The birth of a semi-immortal artifact was less noisy than a Pill Tribulation, but the robust immortal might could be sensed by anyone within the Heavenly Mechanism Sect!

Old Bai feared those people would come to investigate.

Li Cheng’s prowess in Alchemy Dao was already astonishing. Should the news of his ability to transform a top-grade spiritual artifact into a semi-immortal artifact spread, it could very well make Li Cheng and the Heavenly Mechanism Sect the target of everyone’s arrows.

At least until Li Cheng and the Heavenly Mechanism Sect were ready to face the storm, outsiders couldn’t know that this commotion was yet another of Li Cheng’s doing.

Mu Xingzhi understood and immediately rushed to Welcoming Guests Peak.

Li Cheng retracted the Heaven’s Hidden Soul Nourishing Flame and beckoned with his hand, summoning the Pill Tripod to fly over.

Examining the modified Pill Tripod, Li Cheng nodded in satisfaction, confident that he now had mastery over transforming the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod after this trial run!

Casually tossing the Pill Tripod aside—there was no need to modify the remaining four—Li Cheng planned to directly work on the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod!

“I’m ready to modify you now!” Taking out the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod, Li Cheng spoke.

“I’m ready at any time,” the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod just responded when Black and White Elders appeared in unison, “Apprentice nephew, wait a moment!”

“Black and White Uncles!” Li Cheng greeted them with a bow, looking at the two with suspicion.

Black Elder pointed to the nearby semi-immortal artifact Pill Tripod, smiling, “The commotion is too great. How about, we transform it in the Secret Land instead?”

Li Cheng realized and smiled with a shake of the head, “Black and White Uncles need not worry; the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod is already a semi-immortal artifact. No matter how it’s modified, it won’t cause much of a disturbance.”

The lower world has its own order, and the Order of Heaven and Earth does not allow the emergence of an immortal artifact in the lower realms. Thus, even after modification, the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod will still be a semi-immortal artifact and not cause much commotion.

Moreover, Li Cheng planned to use the power of the Space Law to expand the space within the Tripod, and entering the Secret Land might affect his own Space Law.

Black Elder pondered, then nodded, “That’s true, but apprentice nephew must be careful. Many representatives from the major powers are currently within our sect, and you cannot let them pry into this.”

“Indeed, a tree that stands out in the forest is easily blown down by the wind. Apprentice nephew, with your name already spread throughout the Southern Domain in Alchemy Dao, and even Array Path being legendary, if your prowess in Artifact Refining were to become known, that might not be such a good thing,” Old Bai said.

Li Cheng felt the truth of this deeply, for hadn’t Feng Wanli tried to coerce him before?

Moreover, having refined so many Rising Yuan Pills this time, the news must have already spread, and the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was now in the midst of turbulent times!

If the news of his ability to transform a top-grade spiritual artifact into a semi-immortal artifact, or to make a semi-immortal artifact even stronger, were to get out, it could very likely become the spark that ignites upheaval.

By then, who knows how many covetous forces would unite and come against the Heavenly Mechanism Sect!

“Whether or not it gets out is irrelevant now. 1 have received insider information that someone is already stirring the pot. Our sect must prepare to face the gale head-on!”

The voice of Bai Tieyi resounded, as his figure appeared on the scene.

The words of Bai Tieyi instantly cast a heavy atmosphere upon the gathering.

The Black and White Elders frowned in unison, with Old Bai asking, “Tieyi, give us the details!”
