Chapter 7 Ascension Gate, Spiritual Artifacts
"Hmm, this seems to be a magical artifact?"
A raging fire crackled and popped, engulfing the attic and turning the night sky a fiery red.
The oppressive gloom of the past few days has been swept away.
At this moment, Xu Yan's mood brightened considerably.
Indeed, the most important thing in life is to have a clear mind!
As he was leaving, he wanted to see if these people had anything valuable on them.
As a result, when he picked up the three-foot-long sword from Yang Song's waist, he discovered something was amiss.
This is a magical flying sword that has been used in a blood sacrifice.
However, the person who performed the blood sacrifice should not be Yang Song, otherwise he would have definitely taken out this flying sword to fight the enemy before.
"Once a magical artifact or spiritual weapon has been refined by someone, anyone else wishing to refine it must remove the mark left by the previous owner; otherwise, it will be difficult to exert its effects."
"This flying sword must not have been refined yet!"
Xu Yan casually tucked it into his waistband.
He had previously learned from the Iron Spear Master that the Yong'an Prince's Mansion also possessed magical artifacts, which were the mansion's most prized possessions. The Iron Spear Master certainly did not know the exact number of these artifacts.
Xu Yan estimated that there were only one or two items.
This magical flying sword is not as good as the Gale Demon Blade, but it is still a rare and precious artifact in the mortal world.
It is estimated that Yang Song only recently obtained it and kept it a secret.
Or perhaps the Iron Spear Master knew, but didn't tell him; his intentions are self-evident.
Experts at the Divine Power Realm can use their own magical power to refine the marks on magical artifacts and spiritual weapons.
For ordinary people, refining ritual implements is quite troublesome, requiring them to soak and refine them with various pure yang herbs.
This sword is not of much use to Xu Yan, but he is not so rich as to discard magical artifacts at will.
Whether it's sold or given away in the future, it can be used.
The only pity was that he had previously discovered in the mine that the strange space deep within his sea of consciousness could not store external objects.
The manor here is built at the foot of the mountain, surrounded by high walls, and the surrounding area is mostly mined ore, so there is no need to worry about the flames in the attic starting a wildfire.
Xu Yan went to the guards' quarters, changed his clothes, collected some gold, silver and other useful items, and then set a fire.
He led a fine horse from the stable, and without looking back, he set off towards Blackrock City under the cover of night.
Blackrock City is the capital of Blackrock Province.
The purpose of this trip to Blackrock City is, of course, to see "Old Bangzi".
A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years. A petty person takes revenge from morning till night.
Now that I possess power, I naturally intend to slaughter all my enemies.
Once "Old Bangzi" was dealt with, all traces of his presence at this illegal mine were temporarily severed.
Afterwards, he planned to infiltrate the Black Rock Mountains to cultivate for a period of time.
Once he reached the mountains, even if the Prince of Yong'an mobilized tens of thousands of troops, he would not be afraid.
Besides, who knows if he's the murderer?
Once his cultivation reaches the fifth level of physical body, he plans to secretly return to Yuanbei Province to visit his aunt and uncle's family.
He has been missing for more than ten days, and they have probably already received the bad news.
Afterwards, he settled his grudges with the Prince of Yong'an's mansion and embarked on his immortal journey.
Although he is determined to seek revenge, he will also assess the situation and avoid putting himself in danger.
……
Because he was unfamiliar with the road conditions, Xu Yan did not drive fast.
It took him more than an hour to reach the vicinity of Blackrock City.
It was late spring, and the weather was still chilly despite the warming trend.
Having not slept all night, Xu Yan felt warm all over and not tired because he had taken a Baiyang Pill.
As dawn broke and the city gates remained closed, he hid in a corner, drank some water, and closed his eyes to rest.
As for the horse, he had already released it beforehand.
My mind sank into a strange space deep within my sea of consciousness.
On the empty stone platform were the five items he had recently caught while fishing:
The three great martial arts of the Feathered Immortal Sect: the Bigu Pill, the White Sun Pill, the Gale Demon Blade, the Unicorn Viper's Inner Gallbladder, and the Feathered Immortal Sect's Inner Sect.
One unicorn viper's internal organ.
[The gallbladder of a one-horned viper, a condensed essence of the life force of a hundred-year-old demonic beast. A naturally occurring divine medicine, when cooked and consumed or used in alchemy, it strengthens the body's foundation and lays a solid foundation for martial arts. Consuming it can increase one's strength by a thousand jin.]
The Three Great Martial Arts of the Feathered Ascension Sect's Inner Sect
[The cultivation methods of martial arts essence, energy, and spirit include the Chaotic Breathing Technique, the Primordial Spirit Technique, and the Vast Qi of Heaven and Earth. Those at the eighth level of the Divine Warrior Realm of Physical Body can cultivate these techniques.]
"I'll consume this viper's gallbladder after I get to the Black Rock Mountains. After consuming it, I'm afraid I'll be able to advance to the fifth or sixth level in a short time."
"I was worried about not having a method for spiritual cultivation, but now I don't have to worry about that anymore!"
The Great Yan Dynasty paid tribute to the Feathered Immortal Sect and was also protected by the Feathered Immortal Sect.
As a citizen of the Great Yan Dynasty, Xu Yan should theoretically join the Feathered Ascension Sect.
After all, if I were to join another sect, they probably wouldn't feel comfortable accepting me because of my household registration status.
However, he wasn't very interested in joining the Feathered Gate.
On the one hand, he had a bad impression of the Feathered Gate.
This sect is not only poor, but it also treats its true disciples in different tiers. Most of the higher-ups are a group of scheming, short-sighted people.
He knew all about Fang Han's experiences in the original work.
Whether it's the Feathered Gate of the Xuanhuang Great World or the Feathered Gate of the Heavenly Realm, they are far inferior to the Taiyi Gate in terms of sect quality.
If it weren't for Fang Han, the chosen one, leading the way, the Feathered Gate would just be a roadside stall.
On the other hand, he can obtain various cultivation resources through the fishing of fate.
His path of cultivation will certainly not be slow.
Joining a sect, whether it's the Feathered Ascension Sect or another sect, allows for rapid advancement and numerous fortuitous encounters. However, this can lead to situations similar to Fang Han, where one may face jealousy and suppression from mediocre individuals.
It only brings trouble.
Also.
He can also travel to other worlds by using the Throne of Destiny's ability to project the mark of destiny.
If someone stays in the sect and suddenly disappears or reappears, it will definitely attract the attention of some old fogies and become a potential threat.
After all, without high-grade or top-grade Dao artifacts to conceal their secrets, ordinary cultivators are easily seen through by some old guys in the Longevity Realm.
Compared to the ten immortal sects of the Xuanhuang Great World, Fang Han, the chosen one of destiny, is more attractive to him.
It's not too late to make a decision after we figure out the timeline and confirm Fang Han's information.
Fang Han doesn't necessarily have to join the Feathered Gate!
"Let's try fishing for fate again!"
Xu Yan's primordial spirit avatar, perched atop the throne of destiny, wielding the fishing rod of fate, began a new fishing expedition.
This time, it's still a crimson bait made from 100 strands of destiny's power.
As he reeled in the rod, a burst of light flew into Xu Yan's hand.
A Thunderclap Sword
[Thunderclap Sword, a low-grade spiritual weapon. A small amount of thunder elemental crystal was added during its forging, greatly increasing its flight speed and imbuing its attacks with the power of lightning.]
"Finally caught a magical artifact!"
Xu Yan smiled; this was a defensive treasure that cultivators in the Physical Body Realm dreamed of.
What is the concept of a spiritual artifact?
Magical artifacts are simply objects infused with magical power; any cultivator at the first level of supernatural abilities can craft them.
But spiritual artifacts are different.
Spiritual artifacts are treasures created by experts at the fifth level of the Divine Realm or above, who use their magical power to construct various grand formations and enhance these artifacts.
Spiritual artifacts possess extraordinary spirituality. After being refined, they can automatically absorb the vital energy of heaven and earth without requiring the owner to expend their own physical strength and blood. They can be activated with a mere thought.
Even a low-grade spiritual weapon, after being refined with blood and activated by its master's will, can kill an enemy from ten miles away.
Even a cultivator who has just entered the realm of supernatural powers could be ambushed and perish on the spot if they are not careful.
"Good, very good, excellent!"
"This is what I currently rely on to make a living!"
