I am evergreen in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 502 A Tribulation-Slaying Spiritual Treasure, A Small Test
Three years later.

A desolate sea area between Tianxinghai and Donglinhai.

It is the only island within a radius of two thousand miles.

An invisible illusion array shrouded the island, and the mist and water vapor made the desolate island hazy and indistinct, further diminishing its presence in the harsh environment of the desolate sea.

The island's dense, dark rainforest concealed the small spirit ship, which was about twenty feet long.

Inside the quiet room of the spirit ship.

Lu Chang'an closed his eyes and sat cross-legged to cultivate.

A heavy, dark wood-chopping axe lay flat on the table in front of him.

Three years ago, Lu Chang'an left the headquarters of the Business Alliance under the pretext of traveling.

It took more than half a year to find this suitable remote and desolate sea spot.

More than two years have passed, and the Lingbao Calamity has yet to occur.

Lu Chang'an continued his daily cultivation while awaiting the arrival of the Spirit Treasure Tribulation.

A fourth-tier small spirit ship can provide a spiritual energy environment, serving as a temporary dwelling. The downside is that it consumes a huge amount of spirit stones, making it very inefficient.

There's nothing we can do; this is a desolate sea.

The area is barren of spiritual energy, and there are no spiritual veins nearby.

The surrounding sea area is prone to natural disasters, including large-scale storms and tsunamis, as well as occasional corrosive black rain and extinction-causing thunderstorms.

Such a harsh environment has resulted in the surrounding area being deserted, making it difficult to find any trace of cultivators.

……

hum!
The Sky-Splitting Axe on the table trembled and hummed softly.

Lu Chang'an stretched out his palm and placed it on the axe handle.

"Young man! I have a premonition that the calamity of the Spirit Treasure is drawing ever closer!"

"Quickly use your 'Spirit Summoning Secret Technique' to stabilize my spiritual consciousness!"

A burst of noisy information was transmitted from within the [Sky-Splitting Axe].

Since the prototype of the artifact spirit was born three years ago, Lu Chang'an, as the master of the refining process, has been able to communicate with it in a simple way.

Initially, information transmission was vague and communication was poor.

As the Spirit Treasure Tribulation approaches, the artifact spirit gradually takes shape, its information transmission becomes clearer, and it often takes the initiative to make requests.

Lu Chang'an had no intention of taming this artifact spirit.

Each spirit of a magical artifact has a different personality, and there is no need to stifle its nature.

It's best to let things take their natural course and wait until the Lingbao Tribulation is over before making any decisions.

"My 'Spirit Summoning Technique' comes at a great cost, requiring a long recovery period after each use."

Lu Chang'an responded calmly.

The spirit of the artifact could not reach the Nine Seals Stele and could not understand this method.

Therefore, it regards the sacrifice of the Fourth Incarnation as a special séance.

In ancient times, powerful beings from the upper realm crossed over to "possess spirits," using the bodies of human cultivators to fight.

Even cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage can use this supernatural power in a rudimentary way.

"As a disciple of the Evergreen Sect, your sacrifice of several decades of your lifespan will also enhance my foundation!"

The spirit of the Sky-Splitting Axe said in an old-fashioned tone.

"My lifespan is precious; how can I squander it?"

Lu Chang'an didn't even blink, his face expressionless.

During this time, I had long since gotten used to the unreasonable antics of the artifact spirit.

He remained unmoved, allowing the spirit's temperament to be tempered.

"How dare a junior like me!"

The spirit of the Sky-Splitting Axe was furious and dissatisfied:
"For a mere mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator to be able to form a bond with me is an honor that has lasted three lifetimes!"

Lu Chang'an remained unmoved.

The spirit changed its strategy and chuckled:
"Young Lu, you don't want this artifact spirit to fail the tribulation of the spiritual treasure and all your efforts to be in vain, do you?"

Such a threat strikes at the heart of the matter.

As the master, I certainly don't want to see the spirit treasure fail its tribulation.

Possessing a true spiritual treasure is a rare opportunity, even for some Nascent Soul stage cultivators.

"Failure is not a problem."

Lu Chang'an paused for a moment, then said with a half-smile:

"The True Lord has a long lifespan and can cultivate spirits very quickly."

"If I could exchange it for a cute and adorable, or a seductive and feminine spirit, that would perfectly suit my ideal..."

"You bastard! What do you take the spirit of the artifact for?!"

The spirit, exasperated, interrupted Lu Chang'an's reverie.

That kid is awful!
How dare you objectify a noble spirit!
Unfortunately, the spirit of the artifact couldn't do anything to Lu Chang'an.

If the calamity of the spirit treasure fails, the spirit's consciousness may be annihilated.

When a new spirit is nurtured next time, it will be a completely different thing.

……

The following month.

The spirit became much more obedient and stopped making unreasonable demands.

Lu Chang'an descended to his fourth incarnation, once again nurturing and consolidating the spiritual consciousness of the [Sky-Splitting Axe].

The Evergreen Infant Flame was offered up to nurture and refine this treasure.

Lu Chang'an inherited Wei Lang's fourth-grade low-level weapon refining skills, mastered the weapon refining method, and had a better effect on refining magic weapons.

Although they cannot refine spiritual treasures, they can still use some basic weapon-refining techniques.

If the surface of the Sky-Splitting Axe is only slightly damaged, he can try to repair it.

Near a deserted island.

Wei Kui Shi, a true fourth-order puppet master, patrolled the surrounding area for thousands of miles.

Xuan Shui Jun disguised himself as a third-tier spirit turtle, lurking and guarding the sea, driving away and clearing away low-level demonic beasts and intelligent sea creatures, preventing them from approaching the island.

Wei Kui Shi and Xuan Shui Jun would report any unusual situation to Lu Chang An.

The surrounding sea area is under close surveillance to ensure that no third party is observing the site of the ordeal.

……

Two months later.

Dark clouds rolled in over the deserted island, gathering an aura of impending doom.

Lu Chang'an sensed an aura similar to the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation, and his mind was suppressed.

Fortunately, the scope of the strange phenomena of the Lingbao Calamity was not large.

Unlike cultivators who need a fourth-order spiritual vein to form their Nascent Soul, which gathers a large amount of spiritual energy from the surrounding world and creates a powerful momentum.

"Prepare for the tribulation!"

Lu Chang'an put away the fourth-tier spirit ship and summoned the [Sky-Splitting Axe], sensing the spirit's excitement and trepidation.

Boom!

With the sea flag in his mouth, Xuan Shui Jun unleashed his water-based supernatural powers, creating a spherical, rippling water barrier that enveloped and isolated the entire deserted island.

Only the calamity clouds above could not conceal it.

Heavenly tribulations are the workings of the rules governing the universe.

Outside cultivators cannot directly interfere, otherwise they will be targeted by heavenly tribulation and face great calamity.

Looking at the rapidly gathering tribulation clouds in the sky, Lu Chang'an was filled with alarm.

The power of the Spirit Treasure Heavenly Tribulation far surpasses that of the Nascent Soul Heavenly Thunder Tribulation, reaching the attack intensity of the Deity Transformation level!

Of course, the heavenly tribulation was aimed at spiritual treasures, not at Lu Chang'an, who was in the Nascent Soul stage.

"go with!"

He maneuvered the Sky-Splitting Axe to fly higher above his head, a little further away from himself.

To prevent the heavenly calamity from affecting the owner.

The spirit within the Sky-Splitting Axe faintly conveyed a grumbling and cursing emotional fluctuation.

That wasn't all; Lu Chang'an took out a fourth-tier puppet array.

Four exquisite fourth-tier puppets guarded Lu Chang'an, forming a puppet power shield that shimmered with electric arcs.

Finally, Lu Chang'an waved his sleeve.

Swish swish!
Several spare defensive magic items and more than a dozen fourth-tier defensive spirit talismans surrounded him with different spiritual lights, ready to be deployed at any time.

……

The activation speed of the Spirit Treasure Tribulation far exceeds that of the Nascent Soul Tribulation.

Boom!

A deep purple lightning bolt, interwoven with flames, descended from the gray tribulation clouds, striking directly at the [Sky-Splitting Axe].

The dark, heavy axe erupted with a cold, extinguishing light, colliding with the heavenly thunder and fire.

The Sky-Splitting Axe trembled violently, engulfed in lightning and fire, and emitted a plume of charred blue smoke.

The spirit let out a miserable scream, filled with painful wailing.

"The Tribulation of the Spiritual Treasure, Heavenly Thunderfire!"

Lu Chang'an, whose mind and soul were connected, felt a roar in his soul and an indescribable burning sensation.

Lu Chang'an secretly circulated the "Azure Heart Concentration Technique" before the burning sensation in his soul subsided.

His scalp tingled, and he sensed a terrifying threat.

The Lingbao Tribulation only had one Heavenly Thunderfire.

However, this kind of heavenly thunder fire, in addition to the powerful heavenly thunder, also contains continuous heavenly fire burning.

Even a Nascent Soul Celestial Lord might be badly injured if he were to withstand a single strike of this Heavenly Thunder and Fire.

The Sky-Splitting Axe was teetering on the verge of collapse, its surface dimmed, and a burnt smell emanated from it.

Heavenly Thunderfire has immense destructive power against the soul and spirit.

If the materials and crafting techniques of a magical artifact are substandard, the burning and erosion by heavenly lightning and fire will pose a fatal threat to the spirit it is nurtured.

Fortunately, among the quasi-spiritual treasures awaiting tribulation, the [Sky-Splitting Axe] is considered to be of superior quality.

"Ah...it's so numb! I'm on fire!"

The chaotic emotions of the Heaven-Splitting Artifact Spirit, filled with unbearable pain, continued to emanate from it.

The charred axe trembled incessantly, but it did not give up the fight.

Inside the Sky-Splitting Axe, the spiritual energy not only showed no signs of dissipating, but instead became even more condensed.

"Although this artifact spirit is not honest, its will is resilient."

Lu Chang'an's forehead was covered in sweat, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The Lingbao Calamity was relatively easy.

There is only the most basic Heavenly Tribulation.

If the quality of the magical artifact and the consciousness of its spirit are up to par, most of them can pass the test.

The subsequent second and third tribulations of the Spirit Treasure Sect involve more than one lightning tribulation, with the difficulty increasing exponentially.

After counting the interest.

The terrifying heavenly lightning and fire that enveloped the Sky-Splitting Axe finally extinguished, though the lingering burning power remained.

The residual power of the falling lightning and fire reached the destructive strength of a mid-to-late Nascent Soul cultivator, leaving banana pits on the island that then spread and burned.

Lu Chang'an formed a hand seal, activating the evergreen magical power that had been nurtured within the [Sky-Splitting Axe] for many years.

A vibrant, life-giving force nourishes and nurtures the damaged spirit of the artifact.

"Oh! That feels so good! More, please..."

After the pain subsided, the spirit of the Heaven-Splitting Artifact transmitted a tingling and comfortable emotional message.

Click!

The charred black surface of the Lingbao cracked and peeled off little by little.

At the same time, the calamity clouds in the sky began to dissipate.

The Lingbao Calamity.

As quickly as it came, it went as quickly as it came.

……

"Done?"

Lu Chang'an was three parts apprehensive and seven parts expectant as he reached out to catch the slowly descending Sky-Splitting Axe.

As large amounts of charred debris peeled off.

The matte black Sky-Splitting Axe is revealed, giving it a more textured surface, with the forbidden patterns outlining a faint, dark aura of spiritual light.

Lu Chang'an's palms felt icy cold to the touch, with a delicate, gritty texture coming from the base of his thumb.

They survived the ordeal in Lingbao.

The size of the [Sky-Splitting Axe] has been slightly reduced, and its quality has been slightly improved.

"Hehehe... I have survived the tribulation of spiritual treasures, and I am already considered a powerful being among those who have undergone the first tribulation of spiritual treasures."

"Young man, why don't you offer your congratulations to me?"

With the infusion of Lu Chang'an's Changqing magic power, the surface of the [Sky-Splitting Axe] emitted a black light.

hum!
The axe flew from Lu Chang'an's hand and hovered nimbly above his head.

It was as if a demon king had been born, looking down upon an unfamiliar world.

"Little brat, stop putting on airs!"

Lu Chang'an was annoyed. He made a hand seal and sent the spinning Sky-Splitting Axe back into his hand.

The Sky-Splitting Axe struggled somewhat, but was unable to resist.

After surviving the ordeal in Lingbao.

A vague incantation began to form within the spirit treasure, making it easier to control and unleash its greater power.

"It's not suitable to stay here for long."

Lu Chang'an suppressed his excitement and put the spiritual treasure into his storage ring.

He surveyed the surroundings of the deserted island.

The island was charred black and riddled with craters. Several deep, dark craters were left by the aftershocks of lightning and fire.

The island's perimeter is isolated by the water domain of Lord Xuan Shui.

Xuan Shuijun opened his mouth and spat out a column of cold water, extinguishing the remaining flames of the heavenly lightning on the island and quickly cleaning up the charred marks.

Near the waters off the island.

The blue-armored commander puppet stood there, staring blankly at the area of ​​the Spirit Treasure Heavenly Tribulation.

Having observed the entire Lingbao Tribulation, Wei Kui Shi's consciousness was suddenly illuminated.

The operation of the Heavenly Tribulation rules and the terrifying aura of Heavenly Thunderfire caused his Ghost Path Puppet Spirit to tremble, and under immense pressure, it activated the Puppet Spirit's origin.

Unconsciously, he closed his eyes and remained motionless, entering a state of sudden enlightenment and sublimation.

……

Ten breaths later.

After Lu Chang'an and his pet eliminated the remaining traces on the island, the surrounding waters collapsed, and the waves returned to the vast ocean.

It has been confirmed that there are no third parties in the surrounding waters.

Lu Chang'an entered the modified fourth-tier spirit ship and quickly left the scene of the incident, braving the waves and storm.

He also noticed Wei Kuishi's unusual state, but did not disturb him and quietly put him away.

The small fourth-tier spirit ship flew tens of thousands of miles in one breath.

Lu Chang'an's tense nerves finally relaxed.

He was overjoyed to possess the true spiritual treasure.

But what I'm more worried about is that the unusual phenomena of undergoing the Spirit Treasure Tribulation might be discovered by passing high-level cultivators, leading to a leak of information.

Ordinary fake magical artifacts are fine.

The exposure of the True Spirit Treasure may attract the covetousness of the Nascent Soul Heavenly Lord.

Fortunately, the ordeal in Lingbao was short-lived.

Lu Chang'an deliberately chose a remote and desolate sea area to warn and isolate the surrounding area from living beings.

Nothing particularly unlucky happened.

For example, when Lingbao was undergoing his tribulation, he happened to be bumped into by a powerful figure from the sea who happened to be passing by.

Fourth-tier spirit ship, quiet room.

Lu Chang'an communicated with the spirit of the [Sky-Splitting Axe], nourishing it with his Evergreen Magic. "Junior, although your cultivation is a bit low and you are not worthy of my position, the Evergreen Technique is quite comfortable for nourishing the spirit."

"Serve me well, and I will lead you to the pinnacle of the human realm."

The way that the spirit of the artifact can comfortably enjoy.

Lu Chang'an communicated with and tested the spirit, confirming that its intelligence was similar to that of a half-grown child.

Unfortunately, he was arrogant and liked to act profound.

The artifact spirit's cognitive information is unlike that of a creature that has just begun to develop intelligence.

This is because the Sky-Splitting Axe has a long history, dating back at least tens of thousands of years.

It was originally a true spiritual treasure, but it was destroyed in an accident, its spirit was annihilated, and it fell into the status of a false spiritual treasure.

Having passed through countless owners, this axe has been damaged or repaired, patched and mended.

It wasn't until it was re-tempered by Jing Shenjun that it was completely transformed, and its quality returned to above the fifth rank.

Over time, and through countless experiences, Lingbao inevitably retains some residual information.

Therefore, after a spirit is conceived and born, it is born with some information.

Its temperament is also related to the past experiences of the Sky-Splitting Axe.

……

Half a day later.

A nameless, deserted island riddled with holes.

A Taoist priest in a yellow robe, carrying a chest on his back, arrived wearily, riding the waves.

The Taoist priest had no magical energy fluctuations, but his speed of walking on water far exceeded the range of the Nascent Soul stage.

The Taoist in the yellow robe had a square face, a beard under his chin, and shrewd, intelligent eyes, giving him a shrewd, businessman-like air.

"That young cultivator from back then actually reached such a level?"

Daoist Tian Shu stopped in his tracks, a look of surprise on his face.

"At the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, a true spiritual treasure is born. Such fortune and blessings are beyond the realm of ordinary reason."

As he muttered to himself, the Taoist priest couldn't help but become interested.

Then something else came to mind.

The Taoist chuckled, revealing a smug, amused expression:
"This time, Old Yan seems to have lost control."

Divine objects conceal themselves, and true spiritual treasures can interfere with fifth-order divination.

Without sufficient information channels, Yan Donglai was probably still in the dark.

The Celestial Pivot Daoist is located in the sea, which is relatively close.

He possessed special tools that allowed him to sense newly born treasures and spiritual objects of heaven and earth, and he arrived at the scene in time to deduce the cause.

He had done business with Yan Donglai many times, and the two were quite familiar with each other.

However, business is business.

The Celestial Pivot Daoist pursues fair trade and maintains a neutral stance.

He would never proactively remind that legendary great monk.

This stagnant, hierarchical world of cultivation is truly dull and boring.

Occasionally, some surprises or unexpected events may occur, and Daoist Tian Shu doesn't mind watching the show.

They didn't linger on the deserted island for long.

Daoist Tian Shu walked slowly on the waves, but his speed dropped to the level of a pseudo-core cultivator.

Looking towards the depths of the sea.

Daoist Tian Shu stroked his short beard, smiled, and murmured:

"In a few decades, the overseas 'big wave' will break out, and I hope we can get some good products this time."

"It's been many years since I last traded with that old Dragon King. Even if he's petty, he wouldn't hold a grudge and turn me away because of that bargain I got back then, would he?"

……

A month later.

A small fourth-tier spirit ship entered the edge of the Tianxing Sea.

At this time, spirit islands, flying boats, spirit ships, and overseas cultivators occasionally appeared in the sea.

"If we don't take action now, when will we take action?"

The spirit's voice sounded like that of a wicked boy from the abyss, faintly echoing.

"The female cultivator at the Core Formation stage who just passed by was adorned with jewels. Young friend Lu, go and snatch her away! After looting her, you're sure to find something of value!"

"That merchant ship is returning fully loaded. Young friend Lu, act quickly and annihilate it with lightning speed, seizing all the supplies on board."

"That immortal city on the sea is guarded by at most one or two early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators. With a single axe strike, I can break through a fourth-order formation."

During the journey, the spirit was cold and tyrannical, and at times it was restless and urged Lu Chang'an to take action.

"I disdain bullying the weak."

Lu Chang'an didn't lecture or explain, but spoke in an arrogant tone.

These days, he has gotten used to communicating with the spirit.

Lu Chang'an used the promise of no longer calling him "little brat" as a bargaining chip to get the spirit to back down. The spirit then stopped calling him "junior" and started calling him "little friend."

It is unknown what the Sky-Splitting Axe went through, but the spirit born from it is arrogant, ruthless, and cruel.

This is their nature; normal preaching is useless against them.

"When does Fellow Friend Lu plan to make his move? I have become a True Spiritual Treasure, but I have not yet drawn my first blow."

The spirit spoke impatiently, urging him on.

"Are you interested in slaying a dragon?"

Lu Chang'an said casually.

"Slaughtering dragonborn? Very well..."

The spirit was excited and clearly showed interest.

Lu Chang'an took out a sea chart and an intelligence jade slip, and organized the intelligence related to the Dragon Descendants around the Tianxing Sea.

Believe it or not, there really is a fourth-tier dragonborn wreaking havoc in the nearby sea.

It was an earth-type dragon lizard, at the peak of the early stage of the fourth rank, skilled in camouflage and earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of magical ability), and with particularly strong defense.

This dragon lizard is cautious and usually hides at the bottom of the island's soil and in the valleys of the sea.

Each time they raid and devour human flesh, they disguise themselves and flee for a period of time.

……

Six days later.

On an island reef in the western region of Tianxinghai.

This is where Earth Rock King and Flying Rat King first met.

The Flying Rat King's clan resides in a secret underwater realm in the nearby sea.

Lu Chang'an didn't have to wait long.

"Owner!"

Two powerful fourth-order escape beams of demonic energy landed on the island reef.

The transformed Earth Rock Lord and Flying Sky Lord came before Lu Chang'an and bowed respectfully.

Earth Rock hasn't changed much; his head is adorned with short purple hair, his face is rounder, and his chin is slightly pointed. He wears a purple robe, and his dark rock-colored muscles are bulging and full of power.

Feitianjun was wearing a dark brown cloak, looking listless with slightly dark circles under his eyes, resembling a thin, sleep-deprived young man.

"Is Lu Zhenjun going to make a move against that fourth-tier dragon lizard?"

Upon hearing Lu Chang'an's purpose, Fei Tianjun's eyes lit up, and he immediately perked up.

original.

Flying Lord and that fourth-tier dragon lizard king were once enemies.

In a direct confrontation, the Flying Rat King is no match for the Earth-type Dragon Lizard King.

The fourth-tier dragon lizard is skilled in disguise. In its early years, it merged with the sea rock and launched a surprise attack, injuring Flying Lord and stealing a precious spiritual item.

"Don't worry, Lord Lu, that dragon lizard has nothing to do with the Nine Dragons Palace, nor does it come from any deep-sea forces."

Feitianjun patted his chest, speaking in a solicitous tone, and gave his assurance.

It volunteered to lead the way.

Feitianjun is skilled at tracking, and as an enemy, he is familiar with the dragon lizard's aura and habits.

"Alright! You'll lead the way and gather information. You'll get your share of the rewards once it's done."

Lu Chang'an, having completed the background check, gave his approval.

He admired the guide mouse.

……

More than ten days later.

The sparsely populated outer layer of Tianxing.

boom!
A towering tsunami storm enveloped a cliff on an island that rose hundreds of feet above the sea.

The vast ocean stretching for dozens of miles, under the influence of a mysterious force, has formed a deep blue water area that covers several miles.

Outside the water's outer edge, deep, cold, heavy water condenses, distorting light and blocking outside observation.

Within the deep blue, frigid waters, the battle raged, and the underwater cliffs collapsed.

a moment.

A chilling aura flashed by, enough to make even a Nascent Soul cultivator wary.

Boom!

The azure seawater boundary trembled violently, but unexpectedly, it did not break apart.

Near the collapsed and fractured cliffs in the sea.

The earthen-yellow dragon lizard, which was ten to twenty feet long, stood stiff with fear, its pupils dilated.

laugh--

A dark, annihilating axe light cleaved a vacuum rift in the sea, filling it with an aura of destruction, and swept across the neck of the fourth-tier dragon lizard.

The crystalline yellow scales, capable of withstanding multiple blows from a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, were as brittle as paper, leaving a clean cut around the edge, causing the blood to congeal instantly.

"Vulnerable!"

The light of the Annihilation Axe transformed into a nimble afterimage, swirling back into Lu Chang'an's hand, revealing the heavy and ancient [Sky-Splitting Axe].

With a single swing of the axe, the fourth-tier dragon lizard was extinguished, its head still attached to its body.

"As expected of a true spiritual treasure, its power is so refined, flexible and precise."

Lu Chang'an couldn't help but admire.

With the same strike, the True Spirit Treasure [Sky-Splitting Axe] killed its target without causing the terrifying power of that year to leak out and cleave through the Sea Flag waters.

In this way, the powerful aura of the True Spirit Treasure will not be leaked out.

More concentrated power means greater single-target damage.

Not only that.

Lu Chang'an's attack just now was not powered by his full magical power, so it did not alarm the Immortal Physician Changqing.

Because, through refining and nurturing, a true spiritual treasure can absorb and store a small amount of its owner's magical power in advance.

In other words.

Lu Chang'an's first strike with the [Sky-Splitting Axe] will greatly conserve mana.

Moreover, the spirit can automatically lock onto the target to a certain extent.

Even if Lu Chang'an's axe blow went astray.

The weapon spirit can make short-range fine adjustments and lock onto the target to ensure its elimination!

This is what makes the True Spirit Treasure so terrifying.

……

After killing the target.

Lu Chang'an took out a jade box and used the secret techniques in the "Dragon Riding Technique" to quickly collect the scattered dragon soul energy.

Before unleashing the [Sky-Splitting Axe], to ensure a high success rate, he used the Thunderous Soul Divine Technique to shake the target's mind.

After killing it with a single blow, the spirit of the fourth-tier dragon lizard was shattered, making it easier to collect dragon soul energy.

Only a true spiritual treasure could achieve this level of precision.

If the soul is completely annihilated, Lu Chang'an will not be able to collect the dragon soul energy.

Xuan Shuijun trembled as he recovered from the shock and quickly cleaned up the scene of the battle.

This time, the damage was much less, and it was easier to clean up the scene.

Less than ten breaths later.

Lu Chang'an sealed the fourth-tier earth dragon lizard, killed the target, collected the spoils, and cleaned up the battlefield.

call out!
A streak of water-based light swept across the sea and sky, quickly leaving the scene of the incident.

Lu Chang'an deliberately used a fourth-order water-based escape talisman to confuse the situation.

In the Tianxing Sea, there are far too many water-type demon kings and water-type Nascent Soul cultivators.

During the flight, Lu Chang'an was filled with excitement.

After this initial test, he gained a profound understanding of the power of the True Spiritual Treasure [Sky-Splitting Axe].

The previous [Sky-Splitting Axe] was somewhat clumsy, consumed a lot of mana, and had a certain amount of pre-charge animation.

After advancing to the True Spirit Treasure level, it becomes faster, more ruthless, and more accurate, posing an even greater threat to Nascent Soul cultivators.

The spirit claims:

In terms of direct destructive power, the [Sky-Splitting Axe] is among the best of the first-tier spiritual treasures.

Lu Chang'an believed him about 60%, because this guy was rather arrogant.

Axe-type magical weapons are indeed powerful in direct combat.

Moreover, there are many types of spiritual treasures in the cultivation world, some of which are more offensive and others are better at defense; some spiritual treasures are mainly functional and supernatural, while there are also auxiliary spiritual treasures.

……

Late that night.

Lu Chang'an met with Di Yanjun and Fei Tianjun at the ruins of a water palace on the seabed.

"That Earth-type Dragon Lizard King was killed by Lu Zhenjun so quickly?"

The cloaked youth looked bewildered and incredulous.

Last time, Lu Chang'an's pursuit of the Ink Dragon caused quite a stir and involved a lot of trouble.

While the fourth-tier dragon lizard king's combat strength in water is slightly inferior to that of the black dragon, its defensive capabilities are very strong.

Practice makes perfect.

Lu Chang'an remained calm and composed, offering no explanation of the battle's progress.

Feitianjun, as the guide, also deserves credit.

Lu Chang'an rewarded Feitianjun with some of the scales, flesh, bones, and head tissue of the fourth-tier dragon lizard.

"Thank you for your praise, Lord Lu."

Flying Lord avenged himself and was rewarded; he was extremely grateful and bowed deeply.

The most valuable Dragon Essence Pill was bestowed upon Lord Diyan by Lu Chang'an.

The Earth-type Dragon Essence Pill is a perfect match for Earth Rock Lord, but neither Lu Chang'an nor Xuan Shui Lord can use it.

"Thank you Lord for your grace."

Lord Diyan was overjoyed and put away the Dragon Essence Pill.

Flying Lord couldn't help but feel envious.

During the two expeditions where he led the way, Di Yanjun ate meat while he could only drink soup.

Di Yanjun's cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, but he has yet to break through the bottleneck and advance to the mid-stage of the fourth rank.

This time, Di Yanjun even obtained a Dragon Essence Pill with compatible attributes, and it is likely that he can reach the peak of the mid-stage of the fourth rank after cultivating for several more decades.

Flying Lord admired, but did not resent.

He understood that relationships differed in closeness, and he couldn't compare to others.

It's truly enviable that Earth Rock has encountered such a powerful and generous master.

"Good job!"

Lu Chang'an patted Feitianjun's shoulder lightly and made a promise, saying:

"When I have mastered my divine skills, I will bestow upon you a high-quality fourth-tier pill to help you break through your cultivation level."

Feitianjun quickly smiled and agreed.

He secretly resolved to cling tightly to this powerful figure. At the same time, he would serve the Earth Rock Lord well, striving to produce offspring of spirit rats with superior bloodlines.
