Chapter 754: Purple Primal Core Metal, Origin of the Phantasmal Seven Emotions Tune, Mental Sparring Match With a Daoist Celestial
"The Transcendental Daoist Celestial told me that the Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial is now on Asteroid One Zero Three. He"ll send over the star map later."
Luo Shui said after contacting the Transcendental Daoist Celestial.
A while later, the communication compa.s.s on Luo Shui"s waist vibrated.
A pattern of light flowed about as the star map appeared.
Chu Kuangren took the star map and left.
Asteroid One Zero Three.
Since it was the Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial"s residence, Asteroid One Zero Three was also known as the Crimson Sun Asteroid.
The Crimson Sun Asteroid was a Category Two Size Planet, so it was not big in size.
It was about a thousandth of Firmament Star"s size.
Crimson Sun Asteroid.
Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial immediately sensed Chu Kuangren"s presence upon the latter"s arrival and came out to welcome him without any delay.
"Welcome, Brother Chu. I"m deeply honored to be graced by your presence."
"Greetings, Brother Crimson Sun."
Chu Kuangren bowed.
Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial was the first-ever host of the Crimson Sun Daoist Physique since the start of cultivation civilization in Firmament Star.
It was the same for other Daoist Celestials too.
The Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial and Chaos Daoist Celestial, for instance, were also the first hosts of the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique and Chaos Physique respectively.
As for Chu Kuangren addressing him as a Daoist brother, the Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial did not find it strange since they were both on the same level.
Seeing that he was able to kill a Daoist Celestial, it was normal for them to treat each other as peers. If Chu Kuangren were to address him as his senior, he would certainly feel uncomfortable about it.
"Brother Chu, I"ve heard from the Transcendental Daoist Celestial about the purpose of your arrival. May I have a look at your sword?"
"Sure, of course."
Chu Kuangren took out his Descendant Self Sword.
The Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial took his sword and looked at it carefully. "Interesting. This sword contains a Sword Soul within it. Not only that, but this Sword Soul seems to have been strengthened before, and it"s far stronger than any ordinary Sword Soul. It"s not bad, but the material used to forge this sword is a little lacking."
The Descendant Self Sword was originally a normal Sage Weapon.
It only became what it was today because of Chu Kuangren"s nurture. It had also been nourished by the purple haze from the time when Chu Kuangren became a Sage, so its soul energy was greater than any ordinary Sword Soul. However, that did not conceal the fact that it was made from lackl.u.s.ter materials.
"Brother Crimson Sun, are you able to repair this sword?"
"Of course."
Upon hearing that, Chu Kuangren"s brow finally relaxed.
"By the way, Brother Chu, is it true that you have a Secret Realm in your possession?"
"That"s right."
"Ha, I see. Now, here"s the thing, I was fortunate enough to obtain a weaponsmithing technique in the past that could integrate a Secret Realm into any weapon and increase its power tremendously. Are you interested to try it out, Brother Chu?"
"Hm…"
Chu Kuangren pondered. "I hope you don"t mind me asking, but how confident are you in successfully integrating the Secret Realm into the sword, Brother Crimson Sun?"
"I can"t say for sure. I"ll first need to see what kind of materials have been used to cast this weapon. The higher the quality of materials used, the higher the success rate of incorporating the Secret Realm into it."
Chu Kuangren then took out a gigantic dark red axe. "I got this from killing King Bai. Can it be used as the casting material?"
"Oh my, what have we got here? That"s a Daoist Weapon."
The Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial carefully looked at the gigantic axe. "I can"t believe this gigantic axe contains Purple Primal Core Metal!" he exclaimed.
"Purple Primal Core Metal?"
"Yes. The Purple Primal Core Metal is known as the highest tier of metal known in this galaxy that is on par with the likes of Immortal Metal. This kind of metal is extremely rare in existence, and it"s my first time coming across one too. If I hadn"t read about it in the ancient archives, I might not have been able to recognize it."
The Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial exclaimed.
For a weaponsmith like him, finding a good casting material like this was already very difficult, let alone rare metals like the Purple Primal Core Metal.
"With this Purple Primal Core Metal, I am at least seventy percent confident that I can successfully integrate the Secret Realm into the sword, creating the ultimate weapon for you, Brother Chu!"
"What if it fails?"
Chu Kuangren asked with hesitation.
The Descendant Self Sword was incredibly important to him. Hence, he would not take unnecessary risks.
"Ha, don"t you worry, Brother Chu. Even if it fails, the only thing that"ll be damaged is the casting material. The Sword Soul won"t be affected at all."
Only then did Chu Kuangren feel relieved.
After that, he took out the pink-colored Secret Realm.
"Thanks for your help, Brother Crimson Sun."
"This will be a great and rare challenge to me, Brother Chu. I"m grateful to you for giving me such an opportunity." The Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial chuckled.
With this Secret Realm and the Purple Primal Core Metal, the Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial had a feeling that this would be the most powerful weapon he had forged in his entire life!
In the following days, the Blood Tribe"s attacks stopped.
With that, Chu Kuangren could stay temporarily on Crimson Sun Asteroid.
A few days later, the Transcendental Daoist Celestial decided to pay him a visit.
"How is your weapon coming along, Brother Chu?"
"Well, Brother Crimson Sun is still busy with it. It"s probably going to take a while." Chu Kuangren chuckled.
Following that, the Transcendental Daoist Celestial asked him about what happened at Asteroid Sixty-Four. "How did you kill King Bai, Brother Chu?"
After all, Chu Kuangren, a Heavenly Imperial, had crossed a realm and killed a Daoist Celestial.
The Transcendental Daoist Celestial found this hard to believe.
Chu Kuangren hid some details, like his Immortal Body, and briefly explained what happened that day.
"By the way, have you heard of the term "Immortal civilizations" and "Violet Gold Galaxy", Brother Transcendental?" Chu Kuangren asked.
The Transcendental Daoist Celestial"s expression gradually turned solemn.
"I know a little about them." As a Daoist Celestial, it was no surprise that the Transcendental Daoist Celestial would know about the stellar system of which Firmament Star was in.
"The Violet Gold Galaxy is the name of the stellar system that we"re in. Meanwhile, Immortal civilizations, as the name implies, refers to civilizations that possess Immortal Techniques. These civilizations are the strongest cultivation civilizations. They are so advanced that the likes of the Firmament Star and the Blood Origin Star could not even compare to it."
"However, these Immortal civilizations are located incredibly far away from us, so we should focus on dealing with the Blood Tribe for now."
The Blood Tribe was the only extraterritorial cultivation civilization that had come into contact with the Firmament Star. The Blood Origin Star, the Blood Tribe"s base, was located at least twenty lightyears away from Firmament Star, not to mention the more distant Immortal civilizations.
"Has Immortal Techniques ever existed in the Firmament Star before?"
Chu Kuangren asked curiously.
"Apparently, a long time ago, back when cultivation had just started on Firmament Star, an Immortal once visited this planet and left behind an Immortal Technique. However, no one had been able to understand the mysteries contained within his Immortal Technique for countless years. Eventually, a great human cultivator split that Immortal Technique into nine Emperor Techniques and recorded them into nine separate scrolls…"
"Where is that Immortal Technique now?"
"Over time, the stone wall that the Immortal Technique was inscribed in disappeared in history." The Transcendental Daoist Celestial shook his head and lamented.
Chu Kuangren could not help but feel a little disappointed when he heard this.
He was now certain that the Immortal Technique mentioned by the Transcendental Daoist Celestial was the Phantasmal Seven Emotions Tune. If he could find that stone wall that inscribed that technique, perhaps it might help him perfect his mastery of the Phantasmal Seven Emotions Tune.
"Seeing that Brother Crimson Sun is still busy forging your weapon, why don"t we have a mental sparring match, Brother Chu?" The Transcendental Daoist Celestial suddenly suggested.
Chu Kuangren"s eyes lit up with excitement.
"Sure."
The two of them then sat down and started to mentally spar.
Being the first host of the Transcendent Coalescence Daoist Physique, the Daoist Techniques that the Transcendental Daoist Celestial had mastered were seemingly endless in variety. Chu Kuangren was dazzled and incredibly impressed by this.
Chu Kuangren, too, possessed the Transcendent Coalescence Daoist Physique and had mastered countless Daoist Techniques. Hence, he found it very beneficial to mentally spar with someone like the Transcendental Daoist Celestial.
The mental sparring match between the two of them lasted three days and three nights. Throughout that time, the entire Crimson Sun Asteroid was covered with countless mysterious varieties of Daoist patterns. From afar, it looked like a huge ball of light with ever-changing runic characters.
