Chapter 426 - 390: Magic Tool Turns Into Pet?

Chapter 426: Chapter 390: Magic Tool Turns Into Pet?

After Wang Zijia finished dealing with some things, he took out the "Hundred Spirit Refining Steel Technique," a third-grade elementary legal book and started studying it.

Wang Zijia, who had already achieved some advancements in the Artifact Path, didn’t find it too difficult to understand this limit technique, at least it wasn’t difficult to memorize.

However, after flipping it over three times, the secret book in his hand turned into coarse paper and crumbled into fragments.

Weighing Scale: Hundred Spirit Refining Steel Technique

Grade: Third Grade Elementary

Category: Limit Single-function Technique

Level: Not Yet Started (10k/100k)

Value: 10k

Introduction: With it, the junk you refine could turn into a golden beast. At the same time, you don’t have to worry about finding a purpose for your trash spiritual material.

Looking at the newly-born weighing scale, Wang Zijia was filled with joy and he checked his own information.

Dao Cultivation: 400 years (1010k/2000k)

Taiji: 856k

During the past half month, the low-grade spiritual objects Wang Zijia processed began to be replaced with materials for the Bewildering God Pill. Bai Qian made several batches, in addition to the accumulated corpses, Wang Zijia earned over 700k in value.

『Would you like to spend 490K value to raise ’Hundred Spirit Refining Steel’ to minor accomplishment?』

"Yes!"

Taiji: 366k

With the consumption of several hundred thousands of value, countless insights emerged in Wang Zijia’s mind. At the same time, he was delighted to find that this technique was a perfect match for his Enlightenment Technique.

When imbuing objects, this technique could be used simultaneously to start an alternative evolution of life in the artifact!

It allowed the artifact to behave like a living thing, capable of devouring spiritual materials and excreting the residue after consuming their spiritual properties.

Of course, it could not evolve forever.

After all, it was a magic tool. When the debris couldn’t be completely excreted while consuming material, it would slowly accumulate and gradually affect the quality of the tool.

When it reached a certain point, continuing to consume would result in diminishing quality rather than improvement.

However, if it is combined with the cheat of human skin paper man... it should not only solve the limitation of re-forging times but also reach a level where it could consume any gold or earth spiritual material without being picky?

Wang Zijia’s face was filled with surprise, the magic fluctuated under his feet, an entrance to an underground base appeared in the workshop. Wang Zijia stepped on the blood-red staircase and headed towards the underground base.

As Wang Zijia entered, the entrance above him was covered with new blood-colored crystals that vanished in an instant.

······

After a while, Wang Zijia arrived at the blood-red laboratory.

With a thought in his mind, the Five Ghosts transformed into Five Fuwas.

After assigning them to guard the boundary, Wang Zijia took out the Blood Fiend Jade Shuttle and simultaneously, some book pages filled with exquisite spirit minerals flew out from his heart.

Some of these pieces were top-quality materials brought from the Qinglian World, and a few were gifts from the celebration the other day.

Artifact: Blood Fiend Jade Shuttle

Grade: Primary Spirit Artifact (third grade 3000k/10000k)

Format: Flying Shuttle

Status: Early Spiritual Wisdom

Function One: Flying

Function Two: Jade Shuttle Spatial Escape

······

Wang Zijia looked at the jade shuttle’s information and conservatively selected a third-class spiritual material whose properties matched the jade shuttle head-on.

He took a deep breath, spiritual light surged in his hand, and one by one, the fiery red runes were continually imprinted into the spiritual material by Wang Zijia.

Rather than forging with fire, he was more accustomed to forging with talismans. Combining both methods also worked.

As the runes were continuously imprinted, the crystal slowly melted and under the influence of the magic power and runes, it turned into cinnabar-like talisman ink.

Next, Wang Zijia carefully followed the methods described in the Hundred Spirit Refining Steel Technique book and started turning the talisman ink made from the crystal material into blood-colored runes. He tried to imprint them into the jade shuttle.

With the imprint of a rune, the entire spiritual tool began to vibrate.

The immature spiritual wisdom of the Blood Fiend Jade Shuttle conveyed a bit of fear, some expectations, and a little discomfort.

"It’s working!"

Wang Zijia looked delighted. Following this, the talisman ink morphed from the crystal in front of him was turned into several blood-colored runes by Wang Zijia and imprinted into the Blood Fiend Jade Shuttle one by one.

Long after, when Wang Zijia had imprinted all the runes into the jade shuttle and completed the re-forging, the human skin paper man inside the Blood Fiend Jade Shuttle could finally be exchanged.

"Value +46k!"

As the exchange was made, all the defects that had appeared in the jade shuttle due to re-forging disappeared without a trace.

Artifact: Blood Fiend Jade Shuttle

Grade: Initial Spirit Artifact (third grade 3046k/10000k)

Looking at the increased value of the jade shuttle, Wang Zijia looked pleased.

You have to know, this spirit mineral only sold for over five thousand Magic Money, but it provided over forty thousand in value to the artifact. The ratio is about eight or nine to one, almost ten to one.

Talking only about the gain, the profit was more than double than what Wang Zijia made from consuming the Bewildering God Pills!

"Success!"

While jubilant, Wang Zijia pulled out the Blood-Colored Jade Album.

Item: Fake Dao True Record

Ownership: Inheritage Netherworld Device

Grade: Third-Class Spiritual Device (top-notch 6000k/100M)

Format: Book

Status: Early Spiritual Wisdom

Function: Slight...

What he wanted to improve most was this top-notch spirit tool, the Fake Dao True Record!

However, because of the uniqueness of this magic tool, which was a failed magic treasure previously, it would require as much as forty million value points to be promoted again as a magic treasure, causing Wang Zijia to hesitate.

After all, if he filled it with pollution, it would be enough for a significant leap in his cultivation. It didn’t seem cost-effective.

But as one of the core methods, he could not ignore it. Currently, the cost-effectiveness was better than the promotion of his cultivation.

Wait!

Wang Zijia suddenly thought of something, abruptly stood up, and went to a corner of the sacrificial room. There was a huge ice pit.

As he had only just started collecting corpses, there was no much stock in the pit. However, there were many leftover bones from the Five Ghosts’ meals.

As sinful bones, after being extracted by Wang Zijia’s evil seed and absorbed by the Five Ghosts, they still harbored plenty of pollution.

If a magic tool isn’t afraid of the accumulation of impurities during re-forging, there is no absolute need for high-grade spiritual materials... Perhaps it can grow like the Five Ghosts, scavenging scraps?

He decided to act immediately, summoning a modest pile of leftover bones out of the pit with a gesture of his hand.

Amid the surge of mana, the bones shattered into bone dust filling the air. Under the suppression of Wang Zijia’s mana, they were transformed into a dark-red talisman ink the size of a fist.

With a brief look, it could be clearly detected that this pile of talisman ink was not pure at all, containing various impurities and pollution.

However, Wang Zijia didn’t care too much. He returned to the altar, turned it into runes again, and re-forged it into the Blood Fiend Jade Shuttle.

"Value: +0.5 ten thousand!"

Artifact: Blood Fiend Jade Shuttle

Level: Initial Spirit Artifact (Third-grade 305.1 ten thousand/10 million)

Looking at the spirit artifact that was re-forged again without any impact on its quality, Wang Zijia looked more and more pleased.

"Hahaha!"

Finally, he burst into hearty laughter.

The Five Ghosts looked pitifully at the wildly laughing Wang Zijia, their faces filled with worry. They had a feeling that at some point, their master would turn into a terrifying entity.

It took a while for Wang Zijia to calm down. Looking at the blood-red book in front of him, he felt that crafting the magic treasure was within his reach.

The nether corpses would extract pollution on their own in the future. He would feed the remaining bodies to a few pets and use the leftover bones for re-forging.

Triple use? Yes, he had fully comprehend the use of the nether, literally squeezing them dry!

Why does he feel pity for the sinners who encountered him?!

······

Wang Zijia left the underground base with a satisfied look and began to handle the issue of opening the meridians.

As everything got back on track, Wang Zijia gradually had free time and returned to a normal work schedule.

He made two or three jade talismans daily, earning a net income of around 10,000 magic money.

The spiritual materials he brought with him from the Qinglian World began to be processed one after another.

After Wang Zijia exchanged Bai Qian’s Bewildering God Pills, they could be refined daily, producing around ninety-seven to ninety-eight pills.

This allowed Wang Zijia to earn nearly 100,000 value points per day. Of course, the cost was also extravagant. The material cost alone was around 30,000 magic money per day.

Just for one alchemist, Bai Qian, Wang Zijia’s speed of earning money was hardly enough.

As time went by, Wang Zijia returned to a normal daily life of making jade talismans, extracting corpse pollution, refining spirit tools, practicing magic, and battling with Xiang Feifei. His life was plain but fulfilling.

In the blink of an eye, almost two months had passed.

Over more than fifty days, the spiritual materials that Wang Zijia brought from the Qinglian World had been mostly processed, and even the gifts received at the opening ceremony had been sold by him.

In total, he earned 1.37 million magic money. Adding that to the jade talismans he made these days, as well as the remaining jade talismans from the Lower Realm, he had earned more than 2.01 million magic money in nearly two months.

However, there wasn’t much money left. Most of it was converted into materials for the Bewildering God Pills, which were refined by Bai Qian into elixirs, and consumed by Wang Zijia.

That night, looking at his personal information, Wang Zijia thought his cultivation was improving quickly. But well, the consequence was that he was on the brink of bankruptcy again!

As a Perfected Being, his savings might not even be as much as wine monks. It was quite depressing!

He had stayed in the lower realm for quite a long time claiming to be an immortal and acting like an ancestor. Wang Zijia almost forgot about those days when he was on the verge of bankruptcy.

Shaking his head, Wang Zijia turned his attention back to the weights.

Today, he had an extremely important task to accomplish!

[Do you want to spend 2.4 million value points to bring the advanced Dao Technique: Divine Thought Separation Chapter to great mastery?]

"Yes!"

With the consumption of a massive volume of value points, Wang Zijia’s mind was instantaneously cleared.

In the process, his divine sense was continually refined and solidified. His sensing range also extended from a dozen kilometers to over a hundred kilometers, as if his divine sense was on the verge of transforming into divine thoughts!

A very complicated rune group coalesced in the Dantian.

However, Wang Zijia did not halt his movements. He grabbed the rune group that had just coalesced and threw it into the second Dao foundation without any hesitation.
