Chapter 1208: 1212 Hongmeng Immortal Artifact Qingning Pendant

Ouyang Teng sat down in the Stone Pavilion and asked, "The Xuanming Clan united with the Qingli Clan and the Yuluo Clan against the Flying Snow Clan? What are they plotting?"

The four major forces mobilized nine Taiyi Golden Immortals, with three keeping the Tianyue Sect’s Taiyi Golden Immortals in check, and six dealing with the Flying Snow Clan.

With such a big ruckus, they must be plotting something.

"Not sure, Madam Bai didn’t say, and the Xuanming Clan hasn’t announced it publicly. There aren’t many things that can tempt Taiyi Golden Immortals. I suspect it’s Hongmeng materials or low-grade Hongmeng Immortal Artifacts, or perhaps the ten immortal fruits."

Lin Hao guessed.

"I agree. Taiyi Golden Immortals wouldn’t fight to the death over ordinary resources."

Liu Yun agreed.

"Send someone to check it out, so we’ll have a foundation."

Ouyang Teng instructed.

"I’ve already instructed Master Nephew Han to handle it. Brother Ouyang, did you gain anything from your outing this time?"

Lin Hao asked curiously.

"I acquired a Dao technique, but without a Dao Stone, there’s no way to cultivate it."

Ouyang Teng replied.

Dao Stone is a special material, a one-time consumable that assists immortals in cultivating Dao techniques. Without it, there’s no way to cultivate the Dao technique.

"A Dao Technique!"

Lin Hao and Liu Yun exclaimed, their expressions excited.

"Compared to Dao Stones, Dao Techniques are more precious, after all, Dao Stones are one-time consumables."

Liu Yun said with a smile.

"This Dao technique requires immortals who have mastered the Strength Law to cultivate. It’s not suitable for me, so I’ll store it in the warehouse. Consider it a kind of foundation! If necessary, we can use it to exchange resources with major forces."

Ouyang Teng said.

"Needs mastery of the Strength Law? What a pity."

Lin Hao said regretfully.

After chatting for a while, Ouyang Teng went back to rest.

······

Myriad Beasts Island, Myriad Beasts Beast Garden.

Shen Long and Su Changfeng were sitting in a Green Stone Pavilion, discussing something.

"I didn’t expect the difficulty of refining Dao Pills to be so high. I, as a disciple, still couldn’t refine them."

Su Changfeng said with shame on his face.

"It might be related to not having Second Rank Immortal Flame. First, comprehend the Law in the Myriad Spirits Tower. If you can cultivate the Fire Law to Great Achievement, perhaps you can refine a First Grade Dao Pill."

Shen Long instructed.

"Thank you, Master, for your guidance. Junior Brother has also ascended to the Golden Immortal stage, only Junior Sister is left."

Su Changfeng said.

Qin Yuying has already cultivated to True Immortal Great Perfection and is in seclusion, striving to break through to the Golden Immortal Phase.

After chatting for an hour, Su Changfeng bid farewell and left to cultivate the Law in the Myriad Spirits Tower.

Shen Long entered a Practice Room, proceeded to the Myriad Beasts Tower, and arrived at the ninth level.

He stood before a golden tree two zhangs tall, the tree had no leaves, but a green fruit the size of an egg, with some small cracks on its surface.

The green fruit is a Hongmeng Immortal Material, fond of devouring defense-type materials.

Over two hundred thousand years ago, Shen Long went out on business and acquired two Hongmeng Immortal Materials, this green fruit being one of them, cultivated for over two million years.

A green light appeared, and Shen Lin emerged.

"Master, this Hongmeng Immortal Material is about to take shape."

Shen Lin said.

"How can you tell?"

Shen Long asked, puzzled.

"It has stopped devouring defense-type materials. I tried letting it devour other materials, and it wouldn’t. The cracks on its surface are a sign that it’s forming into a Hongmeng Immortal Artifact."

Shen Lin explained.

Shen Long had emptied the Night Owl Clan’s Scripture Pavilion, which included a book titled "Hongmeng Immortal Material Cultivation Insights," documenting the cultivation methods for Hongmeng Immortal Materials and the signs when a Hongmeng Immortal Artifact is forming.

The green fruit suddenly burst with a dazzling green light, shedding some shell-like things.

After a while, the green light dissipated, and the green fruit vanished, replaced by a Jade Pendant shimmering with green light, with the words "Qingning Pendant" inscribed on its surface.

"Low Grade Hongmeng Immortal Artifact!"

Shen Long felt somewhat disappointed.

The formation of the Qingning Pendant was only a low-grade Immortal Artifact, and a top-grade Immortal Artifact was its limit.

Shen Long picked up the Qingning Pendant, and the golden tree withered rapidly before his eyes.

"Cultivating it to a Middle Grade Immortal Artifact gives it considerable power too."

Shen Long muttered to himself, sitting cross-legged to refine the Qingning Pendant.

After refining the Qingning Pendant, Shen Long took out a piece of fist-sized green oak soft jade, placing it in contact with the Qingning Pendant.

The Qingning Pendant shone with a dazzling green light, enveloping the green oak soft jade.

The green light faded away, and the green oak soft jade disappeared.

"I wonder how many defense-type materials it’ll have to devour to be promoted to a Middle Grade Immortal Artifact."

Shen Long muttered to himself.

"Every Hongmeng Immortal Artifact has different requirements for rare materials to promote. Generally, the higher the rank of the Hongmeng Immortal Artifact, the more rare materials it needs to devour, making promotion more challenging. However, once successfully promoted, its power far surpasses ordinary Immortal Artifacts of the same rank."

Shen Lin explained, as recorded in ancient texts.

Shen Long nodded, putting away the Qingning Pendant.

He and Shen Lin stood before a thick golden vine, with five round bead-like objects hanging on it.

This is a set of Hongmeng Immortal Materials!

"Master, they have devoured a lot of heavy-type materials yet show no signs of taking shape, but their potential is quite large. Once shaped, they’re likely to become Middle Grade Hongmeng Immortal Artifacts."

Shen Lin said.

"Does cultivation time determine their shaping rank?"

Shen Long asked, puzzled.

"Not exactly. The rank of a formed Hongmeng Immortal Artifact is greatly influenced by the materials it devours. Before the Qingning Pendant took shape, it willingly devoured First Rank and Second Rank defense-type Immortal Materials, whereas this set of Hongmeng Immortal Materials only consumes heavy-type Second Rank materials; it looks down upon First Rank materials. To take shape, it probably requires heavy-type Third Rank materials, and not in small quantities."

Shen Lin speculated.

Shen Long showed an approving expression and said, "This is not a problem; the higher the shaping rank, the better."

After conversing for a while, Shen Long exited the Myriad Beasts Tower.

He took out a Law Disk emitting red light and entered a spell, instructing, "Have people keep an eye out for rare materials used to refine heavy-type Immortal Instruments. Spending more Immortal Yuan Stones is not an issue."

"Yes, Uncle Shen."

Mo Bingbing’s voice responded.

Shen Long put away the red Law Disk, changed his appearance, and left the Myriad Beasts Island.

In less than a day, Shen Long arrived at the Tianyue marketplace, wandering around.

After strolling down the street, he went to the Green Tea Building and ordered a private room.

Before long, a Green-robed Attendant came in with a tray, set down Immortal Tea and a pot of snacks, then left.

Shen Long took out a red Transcendent Mirror, entered a spell, and the mirror surface blurred, revealing Jin Qianqian’s image.

"Who is the fellow Daoist?"

Jin Qianqian asked with a slight pause.

"I heard from others that Fairy Jin has extensive connections, and I wish to discuss some business with you, Fairy Jin. I wonder if you have the time?"

Shen Long said with a smile.

"Of course, fellow Daoist. How should I address you, and where are you currently?"

Jin Qianqian asked.

"My surname is Zhong, and I’m currently in a private room at the Green Tea Building. If it’s convenient, Fairy Jin, please come over, and we can chat."

Shen Long said warmly.

"Alright, I’ll be right over."

Jin Qianqian agreed.

Shen Long put away the Transcendent Mirror and quietly waited.

In less than half an hour, there was a knock on the door, followed by Jin Qianqian’s voice, "Fellow Daoist Zhong, I’m here."

With a flick of his sleeve, Shen Long opened the door, and Jin Qianqian walked in. She had already ascended to the Golden Immortal stage, currently at the Golden Immortality Early Stage.
