The Great World: Rise from Liuyu

As for the second option, it is to follow the evolutionary path of the Great Sun Golden Crow and be promoted to the super celestial beast Red Feathered Golden Crow.

After a little hesitation, Liu Bai chose the second option. After all, as the five innate spirits, although they do not require absolute balance among each other, if one of the innate spirits is too weak, it will directly affect the upper limit of the innate five spirits disk.

The intermediate evolution of the heavenly grade super level required 800 beast soul points for each one, and three of them were 2400 points. As for the last four-winged flying dragon, there was no other way. As the one with the most evolutions, Liu Bai also wanted to give it another boost, but its only option next was the dragon clan.

Even the weakest dragon is a lower-level divine beast, so Liu Bai can only give up the idea of ​​upgrading it and wait until he has accumulated enough beast soul points to directly evolve it into a divine beast.

After 2400 points of beast spirits were clicked, the three beast spirits on the Innate Five Spirits Plate also roared.

However, this time, with Liu Bai's special control and a large formation blocking the way outside, there was not much noise.

But even so, the stone walls inside the mountain were buzzing from the vibrations. The vibrations spread through the mountain to the ground, and then spread out into the distance.

Chapter 211 Weapon Refining

In the clear sky, a streak of light flashed across at an incredible speed, and the ripples tore apart the surrounding white clouds.

The figure was a middle-aged man, but his condition was not good at the moment. Not only was there blood on his body, but his aura was also fluctuating, and he looked obviously injured.

"Nan Ge, you can't escape. Surrender and hand over the things, and I will consider whether to spare your life!"

A voice came from behind, startling the middle-aged man who was running away, Nan Ge.

"They caught up so quickly..." Nan Ge said inwardly with a grim expression.

As a spiritual formation master, he was not good at fighting. After being ambushed and injured by the opponent, he knew that he had lost the chance to defeat the opponent and could only escape as much as possible.

What he didn't expect was that the opponent was so fast, and the formation he set up didn't delay the opponent for long.

"This can't go on like this!"

Knowing that if he continued to run, he would be caught up by the enemy, Nan Ge gritted his teeth and rushed directly into the forest below.

Suddenly, he keenly noticed that the mountain in front seemed to have a special fluctuation. Without thinking too much, he plunged straight in.

Behind Nan Ge, a streak of light also followed closely, and the two of them disappeared one after another into an ordinary-looking mountain in front of them.

"Hmm? Someone broke into the formation?"

At the same time, in front of Liu Bai inside the mountain, there was a cauldron with a purple flame burning fiercely. In the flame, a long spear was slowly taking shape.

Just at this moment, Liu Bai realized that the formation he had set up outside was triggered by someone, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

However, Liu Bai did not stop refining his weapon, nor did he try to find out the thoughts of the people from outside who broke into the formation.

After all, the Dry Bone Illusion Formation was only a primary earth-grade formation. Even a fourth-grade supreme being would find it difficult to break the formation, so he was not worried about being disturbed by anyone.

"I deliberately picked such a remote place, and I don't know which unlucky guy actually got in. I don't know whether I should say he is lucky or unlucky..."

Shaking his head with some amusement, Liu Bai stopped caring about it. Perhaps he would hear the system prompt sound soon, so he quickly continued to focus his attention on the refining cauldron in front of him.

The method of spiritual refining emphasizes the use of spirit to refine the weapon. This is his first time trying to refine a top-grade spiritual weapon, so Liu Bai dare not be distracted easily.

Time passed slowly, and under the burning of the purple immortal fire, the spear in the cauldron had been completely formed. Because there were no special requirements, Liu Bai did not add too many abilities and attributes to the spear. Even the formation engraved on it was the simplest one, which only increased the sharpness and strength.

After completing the spirit infusion process, the only thing left is quenching.

With a wave of his hand, a stream of black water appeared out of thin air, and then Liu Bai used his mind to control the spear and directly entered the water...

sizzle...

Streams of water mist rose up, and the icy black water was directly evaporated by the terrifying high temperature, and the spear also cooled down rapidly. In just a blink of an eye, the originally red spear body turned dark black.

On the spear, ancient patterns are connected together to form a strange flower shape. With a little spiritual power, the flower will emit a purple-black halo and form a sharp spear edge at the tip of the spear. Even the shell of a strong golden crystal beast can be penetrated. It is considered a very good and top-grade spiritual weapon spear.

Of course, compared to Liu Bai's Zixiao sword, this newly-made spear has no other advantages except its strong penetrating power.

After all, the former was specially tailored for Liu Bai and could be considered a customized product, while this spear could only be considered standard equipment. It was obvious which one was better.

"But since I was able to successfully refine a top-grade spear in five days, it seems that I can now try my hand at the divine weapon..."

When leaving the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy, Elder Chihuo passed on all his skills to Liu Bai, including the various equipment refining diagrams he mastered.

Among them, there is only one that reaches the level of a divine weapon, which is also the work of Elder Chihuo, and is called the Heavenly Heart Seal. This seal has no other effects, and there is only one means of attack, which is smashing!

Once a seal is cast, it can collapse mountains and split the earth. Its power depends on the spiritual power of the person who casts it.

This is considered the lowest-level artifact, but it is a diagram that Elder Chihuo spent half his life researching, and it is also the basis for his promotion to an artifact master.

Having experience in designing diagrams, Liu Bai knows how difficult this kind of thing is, especially when it comes to designing the formations within the artifacts in the diagram.

Unlike formation masters like Liu Bai, Elder Chihuo is not proficient in spiritual formations, so the function of the Tianxin Seal he designed appears so simple.

Take the Five Elements Armor that Liu Bai was going to make for himself, for example. He started designing it when he was in the Beicang Spiritual Academy. At first, it was just a top-grade spiritual weapon. As his strength continued to increase, he revised this plan many times.

Among them, the formation to be engraved on the armor was overturned and reset by Liu Bai again and again. Sometimes, after thinking of adding a certain function, he would continue to add it.

All of this is based on his deep understanding of the Dao of Formation, and it is impossible for anyone else to do it.

On the current armor atlas, there are more than thirty kinds of formations that need to be engraved after refining. According to Liu Bai's plan, the step of infusing spirits alone will probably take at least a month, and that's assuming everything goes well.

If the time for designing the diagram is added, this set of armor alone will take one or two years to come into the world. This is based on the premise that he has a cheat. This shows how difficult it is to design a new set of artifacts.

It is no wonder that true artifact masters all come from the top forces. Only such forces can have enough foundation to provide them with high-level maps to enable artifact refiners to quickly improve their levels and refine stronger artifacts.

In some ways, this can be considered a disguised monopoly.

Similar to this are alchemists, spirit formation masters, battle formation masters... Well, okay, in fact, in this world, apart from the common practice, everything else is completely monopolized by powerful forces. This is the reality.

Taking a deep breath, Liu Bai put away the spear that he had just successfully refined.

At this time, there were already several newly refined spiritual weapons in his Qiankun Ring, including top-grade spiritual weapons and high-grade spiritual weapons, all of which were Liu Bai's practice works during this period.

At this time, he had stayed in the mountain for almost a month. After completing the evolution of the Innate Five Spirit Disk, he had been familiarizing himself with refining equipment.

After successfully refining a top-grade spiritual weapon, Liu Bai's control over the divine refining method has become very good. He is now ready to try refining a divine weapon.

Sitting cross-legged, Liu Bai put aside all distracting thoughts and began to slowly restore his body to its peak condition.

After everything was ready, Liu Bai started his first attempt at a divine weapon...

During this process, the two people in the formation outside suffered a lot.

Although Nan Ge was also a spiritual formation master, and a genuine spiritual formation master at that, he was completely at a loss when faced with such a strange formation as the Withered Bone Illusion Formation.

Fortunately, the Withered Bone Illusion Array is a formation that mainly uses illusion arrays. Although it is strange, it is different from the Red Cloud Array and the Dutian Divine Fire Array, which are large killing formations, and it still gives it a one in ten thousand chance.

I don’t know whether to say that these two people are lucky or that they are destined to die.

Because there was no one controlling it, everything in the withering bone illusion array was based on the autonomous reactions of the people within the array, giving them enough time to break the array. This resulted in the two of them suffering a lot, but in the end they all escaped, fleeing this seemingly ordinary mountain range with fear in their hearts.

However, their departure also made this ordinary mountain range famous. Many people believed that there was some ancient relic hidden here, and that the formation was just a protective formation around the ruins.

As long as you can pass through the formation, or crack the formation, you can enter the ruins and obtain all the inheritance inside.

What can I say about rumors? We can’t say they are completely unreliable, but they are also not a little bit believable.

Few people believed this rumor at the beginning, but after more than ten days of fermentation, as more and more people talked about it, even those who initially expressed complete disbelief began to hesitate.

Gradually, all kinds of people, such as treasure hunters, adventurers and even hunting groups, began to appear in the outskirts of the mountains, which were originally sparsely populated.

Most of these people are first or second rank supreme beings. Their strength is not too strong. In the Northern Realm, they are the kind of existence that the strong look down upon and the weak cannot reach.

Because of their strength, they would not be valued even if they joined the top forces, but they looked down on those inferior forces, so they could only venture out on their own and use various means to obtain resources.

And exploring ruins is these people's favorite thing to do.

After several attempts and leaving many corpses in the formation, these people finally determined that there must be a big problem in that seemingly inconspicuous hill. It might really be the hidden spirit of some powerful person who has not been discovered.

However, the outer protective formation was too strong and very strange, so in order to break the formation, these people had to temporarily unite together and prepare to break the formation first before discussing other things.

"After several attempts, we have confirmed that the formation is at least a low-grade formation, and it is also a very rare special illusion formation. After entering it, the scene that appears in front of each person is different. Preliminary inference is that this formation displays different scenes based on what the person is thinking, and the power of different scenes is also different."

In a tent outside the mountains, a young man with a stern look was telling everyone present about the intelligence they had discovered in the past few days.

"The fear that reflects the soul?" An old man with white hair and beard and even patched clothes suddenly spoke.

The young man shook his head and said, "It probably hasn't reached the point that Senior Hong said. If it really can reflect the fear deep in people's hearts, I'm afraid none of the people we send in will come out alive."

Another burly man beside him frowned and said, "If it's just an illusion, it shouldn't be difficult to control it, right?"

To put it simply, an illusion array relies on some special abilities to influence the cognition and consciousness of the people in the array, thereby affecting the judgment of those who enter the array.

There are many ways to resist this influence. The simplest one is just to have an aura armor that can block this influence, right?

"Humph, you think it's too simple!"

Another person next to him snorted and retorted.

"Although it is an illusion, all the attacks inside are real. Although the enemies you see inside are different, their combat power is above the third-grade supreme. With your ability, you will only die if you go in!"

The burly man was furious when he heard this, and shouted angrily: "Xu Yao, do you want to die? How dare you talk to me like this?!"

"Fool, do you think I'm afraid of you?"

In an instant, the two were on edge, and many people around them also acted as if they were watching the fun.

After all, they are just a group of greedy treasure hunters. Although they have to unite temporarily due to the situation, they are all selfish and unruly. It is a compliment to say that they are a group of scattered sand. They can't even be called a mob, so it is normal for such things to happen.

The young man who spoke first now had a frosty look on his face.

As the organizers of this alliance, these two people actually dared to be on edge in front of everyone, which was a slap in his face...

hum!

Suddenly, a terrifying aura rose from the young man, directly suppressing the noise in the audience.

The two men who had just been ready to fight now looked towards the young man in front of them with some horror. Under the terrifying aura, cold sweat began to appear on their foreheads.

"Are you done arguing? If you are, then sit down quietly or don't blame me for being ruthless!" After the young man said those murderous words, the burly man and Xu Yao both looked grim and sat back in their seats silently without saying a word.

Everyone around was looking at the young man in front of them with astonishment. No one had expected that this young man would have such terrifying strength.

The aura that just burst out should probably be at the peak of the Second Grade Supreme, right?

Such a talented young man, instead of looking for a big force to join and receive training, he competes for food with a group of wandering vultures like them. Isn't this just a waste of time?

Seeing that everyone around him had quieted down, the young man did not pursue the matter any further. After giving the two a warning look, he continued to tell them the information he had obtained, and then they worked together to study how to break the formation.

Chapter 212 Heavenly Heart Seal

Purple flames rose within the mountain.

Because the main function of the Tianxin Seal is to smash, its weight is also extremely terrifying. Although the materials required are not particularly rare, the required quantity is also a huge number.

For more than ten days, Liu Bai has been purifying these metal materials, and in this process, he needs to use space restrictions to continuously reduce the volume of these materials.

After all, after the Heavenly Heart Seal was refined, it was as big as a mountain. How could it be used then...

These spatial restrictions can control the Tianxin Seal itself to become larger or smaller at will, so it is convenient to hold in the hand and it is also fun to throw it out to hit people.

As for the material problem, the Golden Crystal Beast King before fed exclusively on metals. There were countless precious minerals treasured in his tribe. After Liu Bai wiped them all out, he directly plundered a large amount of metal ores, which was enough for him to squander for a while.

In this way, after a huge amount of materials were filled in, the Tianxin Seal gradually took shape, and its weight reached a very terrifying level.

Soon, time passed by bit by bit, and Liu Bai finally completed the first two stages of refining the weapon. The Tianxin Seal was completely solidified, and at this moment, when Liu Bai held up the cyan-gold seal with his spiritual power, he felt like he was holding up a thousand-foot mountain.

"Huh... This weight is more than ten times heavier than what the teacher recorded. I guess it will be even more powerful after it is successfully refined."

Elder Chihuo was, after all, only a first-rank supreme being. Even if he had the support of the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy, he could not squander those precious minerals like Liu Bai did now, so the finished products he refined would naturally be worse.

What's more, Liu Bai is also planning to engrave thirty-six gravity restrictions on this Tianxin Seal. When the seal is completed, although it is still a low-level artifact, as long as it is hit with full force, even a third-grade supreme being may not be able to withstand it.

The only drawback is that it is a bit cumbersome to use, and if the opponent is prepared, it will be easy to dodge...

However, Liu Bai didn't care about these for the time being, because he felt that he would not have the opportunity to use this thing. It was purely a practice piece. As for whether it was practical or not, that was not considered.

At worst, even if you use it as a brick to hit people, it can increase your critical hit rate.

After engraving the prohibition and tempering with mysterious water, the last step is also very important, which is the blood sacrifice, as the final awakening of the artifact!

It is said that spiritual weapons have spirits, and the point that makes divine weapons stronger than spiritual weapons is that the latter already have a preliminary bit of spiritual intelligence... However, different people may have different attitudes towards the spiritual intelligence in divine weapons.

Some people think that even a divine weapon is just a weapon, and a weapon does not need to have its own thoughts, so they will restrict these spiritual intelligences and simply use it as a weapon.

This mostly applies to combat artifacts.

As for the other part of the people, they will specifically cultivate these spiritual intelligences, and then manipulate these artifact spirits to assist themselves in better using the artifacts themselves.

Most of these are non-combat artifacts, such as the Ling Jue Temple of the Beicang Lingyuan.
