Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 102 The Idea of ​​a Natal Magic Treasure

For hundreds of thousands of years, through repeated refinement and deduction by sages of all ages, it has long since reached its pinnacle and become unchangeable.

At least for now, none of the Nascent Soul Realm elders within the sect have been able to modify the "Divine Firmament Path".

Li Yunjing was naturally even less qualified.

In addition, Li Yunjing has also mastered the "Wind Catching Shadow Technique" to a high level, which, combined with his "Swift Wind Boots," can increase his speed by at least 20%.

Finally, Li Yunjing also cultivated a first-tier mid-grade spell called "Palm Thunder".

This was his first time encountering the system's lightning magic, and he was very interested in it.

I don't know why, but this spell was cultivated very smoothly. As soon as I got it, I felt that I could learn it at a glance and use it to condense a bolt of lightning in my palm and blast it out!

However, in terms of power, this "Palm Thunder" is somewhat lacking.

This cannot meet Li Yunjing's normal needs.

[Techniques: Divine Firmament Dao, Palm Thunder, Wind-Catching Shadow Technique, Netherworld Whirlwind Blade, Water and Fire Harmony, Stone Armor Technique, Evergreen Trees Technique, Improved Cold Star Sword Technique]

As for the other spells, Li Yunjing had integrated them all into these sets of spells, making them indistinguishable from each other.

"Sigh! Finally, we've achieved some success!"

After fifteen days of diligent study and practice, Li Yunjing finally managed to integrate the various techniques.

At this moment, Li Yunjing's combat strength is more than twice as strong as when he went to the "Youlan Mountain Range"!
If Li Yunjing were to encounter a Qi Refining Realm cultivator at the Great Perfection stage again, he would definitely not fight so hard against them.

Moreover, with all five elements perfected, he has virtually no weaknesses at this level. His physical attributes, movement speed, and the quality of his magical artifacts have all been comprehensively enhanced.

Li Yunjing's strength is definitely not at the lower level, even among the inner disciples of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect".

Comparing myself to the inner sect's prodigies is somewhat difficult, since I am four minor realms below them in terms of cultivation level.

However, in terms of combat strength, they are definitely not weaker than any non-prodigy fellow disciples!

With such strength, Li Yunjing was full of confidence and even had the idea of ​​winning first place in the outer sect competition.

After fifteen working days, Li Yunjing walked out of his room.

Today, the weather suddenly turned cold. After a night of northerly winds, when Li Yunjing went out to hand over his work, heavy snow began to fall from the sky.

It was already deep winter.

"I never imagined today would be the last day of the year!"

On the last day of December, Li Yunjing looked at the snow scene with a wistful expression. Half a year had passed just like that.

From nothing to something, it was like a dream.

"Ccrunch! Crunch!"

Stepping on the snow, Li Yunjing slowly made his way up the mountain.

Along the way, some disciples on duty encountered Li Yunjing and chatted with him warmly.

Such a prominent figure is someone everyone should try to win over.

Several inner disciples outside the "Scripture Pavilion" saw Li Yunjing, stopped him, and chatted with him for a few minutes.

Li Yunjing greeted each fellow disciple warmly, showing none of the arrogance often associated with masters.

In sects, power and influence are paramount!
Even if you're invincible without the help of your fellow disciples, what good is it?
There will still be people who don't listen to you!

Don't think that just because some peerless genius appears, all the underlings will immediately kneel down!
If there's no benefit to it, see who listens to you!
People are only polite to you because they see how powerful you are, they can't afford to offend you, and they don't want you to hold a grudge.

As for you wanting to boss others around?
All I can do is laugh...

If a cultivator's mind isn't sharp, then they can't cultivate immortality!
There are no fools among cultivators. If you think someone is foolish, it's because they are pretending, disguising themselves, and unwilling to reveal their true nature!

Life is all about acting!

Therefore, in the cultivation world, there is absolutely no such thing as me getting no benefit whatsoever and being willingly driven by you!

Unless they've fallen into their trap and taken control using other methods!
Li Yunjing understood this principle as soon as he entered the cultivation world.

In such an environment, Li Yunjing naturally felt right at home and could chat and laugh with anyone.

In just three months, he had become a well-known "friend" in the "Library".

Almost everyone regarded Li Yunjing as a "friend".

He was born to mingle in a sect!
"The snow is really heavy!"

Upon arriving at the entrance of the "Scripture Pavilion," Li Yunjing stamped his foot.

"Absolutely! Winter came exceptionally early this year, and the snow was exceptionally heavy! Next year might be a good omen!"

Yan Dingzhi was still standing at the door chatting with Li Yunjing.

The handover is naturally not something the two stewards need to do.

Within the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," the four seasons are distinct, and the climate varies greatly.

Although within the sect, there are powerful ancestors who can alter celestial phenomena and make the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" enjoy spring-like weather all year round.

However, no ancestor would be idle enough to concern himself with such trivial matters.

Moreover, the changing seasons and complex, unpredictable weather make it easier to comprehend the great Dao and nature, and to grasp various supernatural powers and spells.

Especially on thunderstorms, these are the days that the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" likes the most.

Whenever thunder strikes, countless disciples, deacons, and elders admire the thunderous spectacle, observe its changes, and comprehend the power of nature.

The handover is complete and everything is in order.

Li Yunjing's group took another break. The minor competition was approaching, and normally, it would be held in March each year.

On that day, many outer disciples will feel that their cultivation is good and sign up to participate in the competition.

Many people don't come here to be number one.

In the outer sect competition, as long as you enter the top eight, you can be exceptionally admitted to the inner sect, and you will be recorded by the sect's stewards and cultivated as a potential disciple.

Such a competition is naturally a major event that all outer disciples yearn for.

Li Yunjing did the same. After returning to his residence in the outer sect, he continued to practice diligently in preparation for the outer sect competition.

Li Yunjing planned to use his vacation to improve his cultivation and refine his magical artifacts.

In particular, after he cultivated the Five Elements Technique, he felt that he had no flaws and should forge a magic weapon with all attributes to increase his strength.

Such composite magical artifacts are extremely complex to craft, requiring a great deal of materials and effort.

Li Yunjing was obviously not an option. He planned to pull some strings and ask the sect's weapon refiner at the "Heavenly Craft Hall" to personally forge the weapon.

"Ideally, we could get a Foundation Establishment stage weapon refiner to help! As for the cost? I'll go all out!"

Li Yunjing took out several of his top-grade magical artifacts. In addition to what he was wearing, there were also six spoils of war in his "treasure bag".

The six spoils of war are a shield, a sword, two spears, a robe, and a needle.

Among them, the shield, the Taoist robe, and the poison needles were the items that Li Yunjing valued most.

He planned to sell the other three items at a suitable opportunity.

This shield is the very one that Xianyu Zhengshou used that day. Li Yunjing has personally experienced the power of this shield. His "Cold Star Sword" cannot penetrate its defense at all. In a head-on confrontation, he has no way to deal with Xianyu Zhengshou.

This "Heavenly Shield" was incredibly defensive, so Li Yunjing naturally put it away, keeping it as a trump card to use when the situation was unfavorable.

This robe is called the "Eight Treasures Celestial Cicada Robe," and it is a robe with extremely powerful defense.

It is a rare defensive robe, far superior to the outer sect Taoist robe worn by Li Yunjing.

If Li Yunjing hadn't launched a surprise attack with the "Netherworld Whirlwind Blade" that day, and instead faced him head-on, he really wouldn't have had a good chance of breaking through Xianyu Zhengshou's defenses.

Unfortunately, Li Yunjing was not qualified to wear such a precious garment.

Outer disciples must wear sect equipment; this is the rule.

He can only wear other clothes after leaving the mountain gate.

He then put the Taoist robe into his "treasure bag," saving it for when he had the chance to use it again.

That azure silver needle was the "Five Poison Needle," which had been tempered with potent poison.

If a cultivator is hit by a poisoned needle, without a powerful, top-tier antidote, they will definitely die.

This is a vicious magical artifact crafted by the "Five Poisons Sect" on the Southern Continent.

He is a very famous figure in the entire cultivation world.

The only pity is that the deadly poison on it can only be used once.

After use, the poison on the "Five Poison Needles" will enter the human body and take full effect.

Once it takes effect, the "Five Poison Needles" will no longer be poisonous, and the power of this treasure will be greatly reduced.

This is also why Xianyu Zhengshou did not use this treasure at that time.

In his view, Li Yunjing was only at the fifth level of Qi Refining. How could such an opponent be worthy of him using his trump card?

At that time, he shouted that if Li Yunjing did not retreat, he would use his trump card, and that trump card was this item.

His words were not meant as a threat!

In the end, however, the person hesitated and couldn't bring himself to unleash the power.

When Li Yunjing was taking inventory of the supplies, he saw this item and broke out in a cold sweat. He exclaimed in his heart, "What a stroke of luck!"
This "Five Poison Needle" naturally became Li Yunjing's trump card.

Unless there is a fatal threat, he is unlikely to be provoked.

After refining these three magical artifacts, Li Yunjing personally prepared a blueprint for his secret magical treasure.

Just as he wished, he prepared to forge a "Five Dragon Wheel".

His goal was to refine a magical artifact that could grow, and to leave a backdoor for upgrading to a spiritual artifact, allowing for direct enhancement.

The design of this "Five Dragon Wheel" is based on the combination of the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The power of the five elements is used to drive the power of the five dragons, which can kill enemies from all sides as they rotate and fly.

Of course, the Five Dragons are out of the question for now; Li Yunjing doesn't even know where dragons exist.

Besides, dragons represent power, so how could he possibly have hunted down five true dragons?
Especially since they are five real dragons, each with a different elemental attribute!

No dragon? No problem. We can use a jiao (a type of dragon) instead. A jiao can't take it down either.

It's alright, you can use a snake instead!

In short, Li Yunjing did not intend to forge an earth-shattering magical artifact in one go.

This "Five Dragon Wheels" was the prototype of a natal magic weapon that Li Yunjing had naturally prepared for him.

If his fellow disciples from the outer sect knew that Li Yunjing was preparing for his natal magic weapon while still at the fifth level of Qi Refining, they would laugh their heads off and comment on his arrogance and ignorance!

The question of one's natal magic weapon is something that only elders at the Golden Core stage would consider.

Li Yunjing is still a long way from that level!
However, Li Yunjing didn't care at all about what others thought.

By preparing in advance, he can use the "Five Dragon Wheel" sooner. He doesn't want to advance to the Golden Core Realm without even a natal magic weapon!
