Mortal: I became invincible after becoming sworn brothers with Han Li.

Chapter 171 Ancient Treasure Small Cauldron

"Uncle Cheng!" Duan Xianyang immediately greeted the silver-haired old man respectfully upon seeing him.

"Disciple Li Yunfan greets Senior Uncle Cheng!" Li Yunfan immediately cupped his hands in greeting and said respectfully.

The silver-haired old man, Cheng Tiankun, looked Li Yunfan up and down a few times before asking with some doubt.

"Although you have just broken through to the Core Formation stage, your spiritual sense is far stronger than that of other cultivators at the same level, and is probably comparable to those in the mid-Core Formation stage. Could it be that you mainly cultivate a spiritual sense technique?"

Upon hearing this, Duan Xianyang looked at Li Yunfan with a face full of astonishment.

The other party has a fire spirit body and cultivates fire attribute techniques. He heard this with his own ears. How can their divine sense be so strong?

"Reporting to Senior Uncle, I mainly cultivate fire-attribute techniques. It's just that I practiced a divine sense secret technique in my early years, which is why my divine sense is stronger than that of other cultivators of the same level," Li Yunfan replied respectfully.

"Stronger?" Cheng Tiankun chuckled, somewhat noncommittal about Li Yunfan's statement.

"It seems that Huoyun Peak has really struck gold this time. Junior Brother Li, not only is your Fire Spirit Body powerful, but your divine sense is also so strong—" Duan Xianyang exclaimed in amazement.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Tiankun raised his long beard and white eyebrows slightly, asking with considerable interest, "You still possess the Fire Spirit Body?"

"Replying to my senior master, I do indeed possess the Fire Spirit Body, a special spiritual body!" Li Yunfan replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Upon seeing this, Cheng Tiankun's eyes flashed with appreciation, and he nodded in satisfaction.

"It's a pity I don't cultivate fire-attribute techniques, otherwise I wouldn't mind taking you as my disciple."

"It is because this disciple is unfortunate and has no chance to become a disciple of my master," Li Yunfan replied with flattery.

Cheng Tiankun chuckled, then simply told them to cultivate diligently before waving for them to leave.

Duan Xianyang and Li Yunfan bowed respectfully and then transformed into two streaks of red light, flying down from the mountaintop.

Cheng Tiankun, standing on the platform, pondered for a moment, then waved his hand and sent out a transmission talisman before returning to his cave.

After bidding farewell to Cheng Tiankun, the two arrived at the main hall of the main peak.

When Wu Qingming saw Li Yunfan after he had formed his core, his eyes were filled with astonishment, and he was even more shocked.

He never expected that the other party would actually succeed in forming a core.

You must know that this insurmountable barrier has blocked countless Foundation Establishment cultivators, yet the other party succeeded on the first try. How could he not be shocked!

However, he quickly regained his composure, cupped his hands in a respectful bow, and called out, "Uncle-Master Li!"

"Speaking of which, I owe my rapid Core Formation to my junior nephew. If it weren't for his reminder, I might still be worrying about those two kinds of spiritual liquids," Li Yunfan said kindly.

Upon hearing this, Wu Qingming quickly said that he dared not.

After hearing their conversation, Duan Xianyang couldn't help but ask Li Yunfan a question out of curiosity.

After hearing Li Yunfan's explanation, he smiled in realization.

He then arranged for Wu Qingming to re-register Li Yunfan and change his elder's identity token.

Back in his cave, Li Yunfan put away the illusion insects and the array outside. Then, a red light emanated from his body, and he flew towards the sky a thousand feet above Fire Cloud Peak.

At Duan Xianyang's suggestion, he prepared to reopen his cave dwelling.

Before long, he found a suitable location and then controlled the Ghost Shadow Six Demon Blades to carve out a larger cave on the cliff face than before.

Furthermore, it was carefully crafted to make it look less simple and rough.

After all, he's already a Core Formation cultivator; he should at least have some prestige.

Inside the cultivation room, Li Yunfan sat cross-legged on a futon, while Bing'er lay down beside his legs for a short rest.

He was carefully examining a simple, square-shaped cauldron in his hand.

This was originally obtained from an ancient cultivator named Yun Minglan. Previously, due to insufficient cultivation, it had been kept in a storage bag.

Now that he has entered the Core Formation stage, it would be worth a try to activate it.

He slowly poured spiritual energy into it, but the small cauldron did not change in the slightest.

So, with a thought, he immediately doubled the amount of spiritual energy he injected.

This time, the small cauldron finally reacted, emitting a clear "hum" sound before taking off on its own and gradually increasing in size.

It eventually transformed into a large cauldron several tens of inches in size, which fell to the ground with a "bang".

Li Yunfan moved Bing'er aside, got up and walked forward, circling the cauldron with curious eyes.

After a moment's hesitation, he immediately released his divine sense to envelop the cauldron. With a slight thought, the cauldron flew up and spun around in the air a few times.

With a wave of his hand, the cauldron immediately flew back to him and rapidly shrank in mid-air.

When it returned to his hand, it had shrunk back to its original size of a few inches.

Looking at the small cauldron in his hand, Li Yunfan's face was full of surprise, because through his divine sense, he discovered that he could not put the cauldron into his body at all.

This shows that this simple and unadorned small tripod is a priceless "antique"!

"I never imagined this would be an ancient treasure! This is a really good thing!" Li Yunfan thought excitedly.

Ancient treasures are different from magical treasures. Ancient treasures cannot be stored in the body, nor can they be refined.

It can be said that whoever gets their hands on it can directly command it.

However, the ancient treasures are incredibly powerful, far surpassing ordinary magical artifacts, and each one possesses a very strange function.

Looking at the ancient treasure cauldron in his hand, Li Yunfan couldn't help but wonder what its purpose was.

"Generally, tripods and similar objects have the function of collecting things, but this small tripod—"

With that in mind, Li Yunfan immediately decided to give it a try.

So his "evil" gaze fell upon Bing'er, who had already awakened.

After some experimentation, Li Yunfan discovered that the small cauldron could indeed capture people, and also various spiritual objects, such as shape-shifting insects.

He collects almost everything, from flames to magical artifacts.

However, after collecting it, it is simply kept inside the cauldron and not refined.

-

Li Yunfan treasured it and put it into his storage bag before sitting down cross-legged again.

After his emotions gradually calmed down, he flipped his hand and took out a small green sword about an inch long.

It was that Green Radiance Sword!

"I'll just have to make do with you for now before I can refine my own natal magic weapon!" Li Yunfan sighed softly and muttered to himself.

Immediately, his divine sense invaded it, controlling the small sword to continuously flip and fly in the air.

Feeling the stagnation of being brought under control and the inability to react quickly, Li Yunfan couldn't help but frown.

After a moment's hesitation, he opened his mouth and exhaled the Purple Nether Heart Flame, completely enveloping the small sword and beginning to refine it once more.

At the same time, he began to think about what kind of natal magic weapon he should refine.

Unlike Han Li, who only needed the Qingyuan Sword Manual to master everything, he possessed not only cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities, but also methods for crafting magical treasures, and even the extremely powerful secret technique, the Great Geng Sword Formation.

The Nine Revolutions Burning Heaven Technique does not record any method for refining magical treasures.

However, this matter cannot be resolved in a short time, since apart from the claws of those two level-five demonic beasts, he doesn't have any other good materials.
