Chapter 148: Myriad Dao Artifact and Myriad Array Formation Scriptures
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the trial mystic realm, Chu Xuan fought with Buddha Nanwu for half an hour. In the end, he defeated Buddha Nanwu with his newfound strength.
The fearsomeness of the Indestructible Chaos Body was displayed during his fight.
With his second-level Heaven realm cultivation, he had defeated Buddha Nanwu, who was at the ninth level of the Heaven realm!
Chu Xuan was now certain that he was invincible within the Heaven realm!
One had to know that Buddha Nanwu cultivated Buddhist dharma, and his Buddhist divine techniques were extremely powerful.
!!
His golden body was also extremely powerful.
Among the ninth-level Heaven realm cultivators, Buddha Nanwu was definitely ranked among the top.
Even so, he was still defeated by Chu Xuan even though Chu Xuan could not use the Chaos Bell yet, and had yet to use a few of his more powerful trump cards.
For example, the time illusion and time plunder techniques, and so on.
Within the Heaven realm, he reigned supreme.
Chu Xuan was extremely excited. Based on this, by the time he broke through to the ninth level of the Heaven realm, he would be able to defeat the certain Divine realm cultivators.
After the trial ended, Chu Xuan tried to use the time illusion technique.
He realized that he could now use it once without its consumption becoming a huge burden.
After it was activated, the time illusion could last for three minutes, which was a huge improvement.
Three minutes was enough for him to win the battle.
Furthermore, he did not feel an intense burden. It was just that he would consume too much energy if he tried to make it last longer than three minutes.
All of this was because of the strength of the Indestructible Chaos Body.
He delved into his consciousness again. Time would not leave traces on the Indestructible Chaos Body. Perhaps this was the reason why the time illusion technique would not activate before this; his physical body could not bear the burden.
The ten-year seclusion milestone had pa.s.sed.
Next up was the next ten-year milestone.
Chu Xuan set a small goal for himself. He had to remain steadfast and stay in the courtyard for a hundred years.
After all, staying here for ten years had already granted him such rich rewards.
Moreover, he had broken through from the mortal realm to the Heaven realm.
In that case, what kind of reward would he receive after staying here for a hundred years?
At that time, how strong would he be?
Would he be invincible?
Chu Xuan was filled with antic.i.p.ation.
He became more and more determined to stay put. Only by doing so could he become stronger.
No one could disturb his peaceful and secluded lifestyle.
He took out a bottle of cultivation pills and poured the whole bottle into his mouth. He was just that domineering.
In the past, he would swallow one pill at a time. His cultivation speed was too slow, and it did not seem domineering at all.
Now that he had the Indestructible Chaos Body, his body was no longer constrained by its speed of digesting these pills’ medicinal effects, so he could simply swallow the pills by the bottle.
If there were not enough of them, the system would reward him with more. There was no need to panic at all.
After swallowing a bottle of pills, the Indestructible Chaos Body began to circulate. It quickly refined the medicinal efficacy of the pills to boost his cultivation.
It did not feel like he was overdoing it at all.
Half a day later, Chu Xuan swallowed another bottle of pills.
“You’ve been in seclusion for ten years and one day. You have been rewarded with the Myriad Dao Artifact Scripture.”
Chu Xuan received the reward.
The Myriad Dao Artifact Scripture was an artifact refining manual that contained many artifact refining methods, just like the Myriad Pill Scripture.
No matter how talented one was, it was impossible for one to completely grasp it.
Even someone like w.a.n.g Luo, who possessed natural pill meridians, was also unable to completely grasp the Myriad Pill Scripture. He had only learned a part of it.
Even so, in the entire nine zones, there was probably no one who could compare to him in the path of pill refinement.
One had to know that, within the Myriad Pill Scripture, other than the various pill refinement techniques, the core of the scripture was the Dao of alchemy!
The Daos of alchemy recorded within it were extremely numerous.
To be able to grasp one would already make one an expert at the peak of the Dao of alchemy. If one walked out of it with their own Dao of alchemy, then they would be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with many other supreme experts of the Dao of alchemy.
Chu Xuan suspected that the comprehension and Daos of alchemy of all the experts of the Dao of alchemy since time immemorial had been recorded in the Myriad Pill Scripture.
It was the same with the Myriad Dao Artifact Scripture that he had just received from the system’s reward.
The difference was that this Dao belonged to the Dao of artifact refinement.
Whether it was emperor-level artifacts, heavenly artifacts, divine artifacts, or Dao artifacts, they were all nothing to him.
Chu Xuan asked himself if there was anyone in the world who could compare to him in terms of artifact refinement. He could easily refine heavenly artifacts.
However, after mastering the Myriad Dao Artifact Scripture, Chu Xuan realized that his previous level of artifact refinement was simply trash.
Inside the Myriad Dao Artifact Scripture, other than artifact refinement techniques, there were also refinement techniques for puppets, mechanisms, talismans, and other such spiritual artifacts and tools.
Chu Xuan took out the materials and came up with his own plan. He spent more than half a day refining two puppets.
The puppets looked nothing like the puppets ordinary cultivators created. They wore armor and held divine artifacts in their hands.
They were divine-grade puppets.
Chu Xuan used his soul power to nurture them. He engraved a combat technique on them, allowing the puppets to gain basic spiritual sense.
Two puppets that belonged to the combat category.
After the puppets gained basic spiritual sense, Chu Xuan threw the puppets toward the Origin Dao Crystal.
The Dao aura and Dao principles that spread out from the Origin Dao Crystal would continue to nurture the puppet, allowing them to be able to cultivate to a certain extent, as well as to expend and recover their spiritual power on their own.
Currently, the puppets’ strength was only around the fifth level of the Heaven realm.
Chu Xuan wanted to nurture the Divine realm puppets.
As such, the Origin Dao Crystal was undoubtedly the best place to nurture these puppets.
With the Dao aura and Dao principles washing over it constantly, these puppets would be nourished and gradually undergo a transformation. He did not need to activate them with spiritual crystals or other spiritual energy items.
They could absorb spiritual energy on their own and store what they needed for combat. Moreover, their spiritual sense could be further improved, turning them into soul puppets that could cultivate on their own!
Once the soul puppets were nurtured, he would have Divine realm subordinates who could help him make preparations for the Asura Ancient Land.
Chu Xuan sighed. He was lacking a genius disciple who could refine artifacts.
A lazy shut-in like himself could not be bothered working hard on the path of artifact refinement. Refining two puppets was just something he did on the spur of the moment.
w.a.n.g Luo was capable of refining pills, but he was lacking when it came to artifact refining. He did not know when a genius in artifact refining would come to him.
“You’ve been a shut-in for ten years and two days. You’ve been rewarded with the Myriad Array Formation Scripture.”
Oh?
Chu Xuan was startled. Yesterday, the reward was about artifact refining. Today, it was about arrays and restrictions. Could it be that the system wanted to make him an all-rounder?
Did it want him to become a super awesome expert who had truly mastered the myriad Daos?
He received the Myriad Array Formation Scripture, within which were recorded countless arrays and restrictions. Like the Myriad Dao Artifact Scripture, it contained many array formations.
The Southern Region was a barren land where array formations were scarce. Even in the wider Northern Zone, array formations were relatively rare, and very few people specialized in the Dao of Formations.
Most of them only used them to a.s.sist in cultivation.
Even those who were very proficient in array formations were not specialized in them. The only difference was that they were capable of setting up array formations that were not completely auxiliary.
Chu Xuan summoned Su Xian’er, Ding Yue, and w.a.n.g Luo and taught them the basics of array formations, as well as some common array formations and restrictions.
This was especially beneficial for w.a.n.g Luo. As long as he used array formations properly when refining medicinal pills, he would find them quite useful.
As Chu Xuan’s disciples, they did not have to be proficient in everything, but at the very least, they had to have some knowledge about each subject.
“Today, I’ll be explaining formations and restrictions to all of you. How much you can learn and whether you’re interested to learn more is all up to you.”
The three of them quickly sat down and listened attentively, afraid that they would miss out on something important.
Chu Pingfan also walked over and sat down beside Chu Xuan.
The Sagemaster’s Halo was activated, and Chu Xuan began explaining the Dao of Formations, as well as imparting the various formations and restrictions to them.
He was only imparting some basic knowledge of array formations to them. It could be said to be the foundation of the Dao of formations, and included some of the more commonly used array formations and restrictions.
For example, illusion, confinement, barrier, and attack formations were more commonly used types of array formations.
He did not impart anything too profound. After all, the talents of these three disciples of his did not lie in formations. It would be enough if they could identify, set up and break common formations.
