Chapter 442: Chapter 81: The Dragon Storing Bottle is Complete, Understanding the Art of Magic (Three in One, 7800)_3

Having understood this, many seemingly superfluous structures within the Dragon Storing Bottle suddenly made sense.

"The main structure is complete, just lacking the final touch of Dragon Qi."

Holding the fledgling form of the Dragon Storing Bottle in his hand, An Jing left the Refinement Chamber and headed towards the Earth Pulse Hub—the main storage and accumulation point of the Dragon Storing Bottle, drawing from the element of water, he intended to use the Civil and Military Formation Plate to once again condense a trace of Dragon Qi, using it as the ’Tempering Fire Spirit Mechanism,’ to transform the Dragon Storing Bottle, which was currently just an embryo of a Magic Artifact, into something entirely reborn.

This process also went exceptionally smoothly.

An Jing patiently waited, drawing a strand of mysterious gold-colored Dragon Qi from the Civil and Military Formation Plate, and then, using Emperor’s Blood to guide it, he infused it into the Dragon Storing Bottle.

As it collected the Dragon Qi, the entire Dragon Storing Bottle slowly rose, floating in mid-air, the tricolor lights of purple, gold, and white flickering intermittently, with mist rising around it, ashes scattered, and the Spirit Qi around it rushing towards the mouth of the bottle like a river flowing downstream, forming a small vortex within the Earth Pulse Hub.

In that instant, Cang, who had been following Shen Mubai and Bai Qinghan, assisting in the construction of Linjiang City with its magnetic light abilities, suddenly halted its actions and stared unwaveringly in the direction of An Jing.

Just like the Ferocious Beasts during the Beast Tide, it too sensed the existence of the Dragon Qi—but it was too fast, the Dragon Storing Bottle absorbed the Dragon Qi quicker than the Emperor’s Blood did, and this brief moment added to Cangsu Cang’s respect and anticipation for An Jing.

—Although it didn’t know what that thing was, as long as it followed the boss, it might have a chance to enjoy it someday!

Meanwhile, in the center of Linjiang City, a flash of white light suddenly appeared, the clouds of snow atop the city vibrated, and a surge of Qi rose, briefly dispersing the snowstorm.

A ray of sunlight, breaking through the layered clouds, bathed the dust in frost, slithering like a dragon or snake, shining upon the mysterious gold-colored Dragon Storing Bottle in An Jing’s hand as he stepped out from the Earth Pulse Hub.

"Success!" An Jing laughed, holding the precious bottle aloft: "It’s merely a Magic Artifact, yet it can trigger heavenly phenomena; the Dragon Storing Bottle is truly extraordinary."

Subdue Evil also praised: "This Artifact, this technique, possesses the True Intent of a Demon Core, with heavenly gold for the body, earth silver for the base, and the mechanism of myriad spirits within, named Dragon Storing."

"The dragon represents the starry signs of the Heavenly Sea and the ancestral spirit of the Earth Pulse, the hero among myriad spirits; with the Dragon Storing Bottle, connected to Heaven Star above, drawing Earth Fiend below, aiding myriad spirits in becoming True Spirits... Verily, this is an Artifact created by an ancient sage dragon for future generations to inherit!"

The sunlight was blocked off by the closing snow clouds, and An Jing lowered his hand, examining the mysterious gold-colored bottle in his grasp, sensing the vast Spirit Qi within, as well as the remnant trace of Dragon Qi.

He felt a joy in his success, but also harbored a doubt: ’Is that all it takes?’ "From beginning to end, smelting the Spiritual Material took an entire night, the actual crafting of the bottle body and the inscription of the seals took less than an hour... It all just seems too simple."

Subdue Evil laughed: "Didn’t you try Grasping Heavenly Moment? I detected your hesitations four or five times during the weaving process, without Grasping Heavenly Moment, those would equal to at least five failures!"

An Jing was unconcerned: "So what? Grasping Heavenly Moment is also part of my Artifact Refining strength!"

That being said, the first attempt at Artifact Refining, succeeding after only five or six failures to create the Dragon Storing Bottle, was a talent that would be considered a Divine Craftsman Seed wherever he went.

The Dragon Storing Bottle had an extremely large capacity, roughly five times that of Fengdu Guards’ core Spirit Qi Furnace, of course, this was in extreme storage mode. If one wanted to use it normally in battle, to withstand the fluctuations of Spirit Qi during combat, a reserve equivalent to four core Spirit Qi Furnaces would suffice.

Besides that, it could also mobilize an extremely high total amount of Spirit Qi in an instant, even powerful enough to activate a Magic Artifact from the Martial Meridian realm.

An Jing normally used the Tyrant Sea Blade at low power, but now, he could tap into the strength of the Dragon Storing Bottle to unleash the true power of this Martial Meridian Magical Soldier for a short duration.

As for the fact that the full power of the Tyrant Sea Blade required the Water Element Spirit Qi, it was actually not a big issue. The Dragon Storing Bottle could store many types of Spirit Qi simultaneously and harmonize them, refining it into pure, attributeless Qi.

There would naturally be a loss in this process, but for cultivators who could only utilize a portion of the Spiritual Fiend, it was actually a huge gain.

Just now, An Jing had been loading Earth Pulse Qi at the Earth Pulse Hub and had already filled about half; next, he planned to collect some pure Golden Qi around the Primordial Spirit Cave.

If he could attract the attention of the inner Demon Shedding, that would be good too, to see how the Demon Shedding behaved.

However, before that, An Jing also discovered something interesting.

That was, the ’Crystal Seed’ he had obtained from the Tianyuan Realm seemed to love the Earth Pulse environment a lot.

The Crystal Seed was the core of the Chenjing Mine. Just like when a high-quality Spirit Stone is placed within a Spirit Vein, it would gradually form a new Spirit Stone mine over time, placing the Crystal Seed in a suitable environment would also lead it to grow, give birth to a Crystal Cave, and then spawn more Sinking Crystals.

In a world with Spirit Qi, gold, wood, earth, and stone can all become sentient, and a mine vein is not absolutely inanimate, simply awaiting the accumulation of time; they have properties akin to life and will spread themselves through various means.

The Crystal Seed was the same. It had been taken out briefly when An Jing was selecting materials for refining the Dragon Storing Bottle, and just in that short time, it showed a great affinity for the Earth Pulse of Embracing the Void, surprising An Jing.

But upon reflection, it wasn’t so strange; after all, the power of the Earth Pulse of Embracing the Void far surpassed that of Tianyuan, and even a mine vein, accustomed to harsh days, would definitely be excited to come to a better place.

However, Linjiang City was not truly An Jing’s permanent lair where he intended to settle down, so to avoid leaving any flaws, An Jing could only take the Crystal Seed back.
