Cultivation Starts with Rejuvenation-Chapter 200 - 84: The Rivalry of the Twin Prides (2)

Regarding this secret technique, Li Ji'an knew very little; he initially thought it was like magic, with the light extinguished upon death, but little did he expect that it would still reside within the magical treasure prototype.

This Fire Lotus was conjured by the Foundation Establishment Mid-Stage magical power of Fu Hanxing, and Li Ji'an found that he couldn't break it with his own magical power for the moment.

"Shoo~"

Just as Li Ji'an frowned, the Little Fire Spirit perched on a withered branch suddenly flashed and arrived.

Soon, the Little Fire Spirit exuberantly unleashed Spirit Flame, enveloping and burning the entire glazed lamp.

"Hiss~" Something that surprised Li Ji'an occurred.

The Fire Lotus residing within the glazed lamp let out a fearful howl and was little by little devoured by the Little Fire Spirit.

Almost instantly, Li Ji'an distinctly sensed that the Little Fire Spirit, having been stuck at the peak of Tier One, showed signs of a breakthrough, with the Fire Element Spiritual Mechanism carried by the Fire Lotus becoming its great nourishment.

"Devouring magical power to condense Spirit Flame can also promote its growth." Li Ji'an was overjoyed.

If the Fire Spirit could ascend to Second Tier Spirit Flame, his Alchemy Dao would rise to a higher level, and the threat of Second Tier Fire Spirit's Spirit Flame might even catch a Late Stage Foundation Establishment cultivator off guard.

Soon, the Fire Lotus was devoured completely.

The Little Fire Spirit still eagerly licked the glazed lamp, leaving no trace behind.

Meanwhile, Li Ji'an unexpectedly discovered that the imprint exceeding his Divine Sense on the glazed lamp was also burned away by the Fire Spirit.

"The Fire Spirit unexpectedly also has the effect of incinerating Divine Soul!"

"Indeed! Fire Spirit is itself a Heaven and Earth Holy Spirit, not just at the physical level, but also at the soul level, True Pill Divine Sense is nothing in its presence."

As the Little Fire Spirit returned to the withered branch to rest, the glazed lamp immediately became a masterless object; the Fire Lotus residing within vanished, as well as the Life Essence Blood Fu Hanxing used during refining, and even the Divine Soul Seal placed by Fu Hanxing's sect elder.

Li Ji'an was greatly pleased and immediately infused his own Essence Blood, quickly refining it.

This saved him at least a month's worth of effort.

In merely an hour, the glazed lamp became Li Ji'an's first magical treasure prototype.

If only his Dantian Magical Power were stronger and sturdier, he could start nurturing it now, perhaps nurturing it over a few lifetimes might truly transform it into a complete magical treasure!

Infusing a little magical power, the glazed lamp responded, yet it was still insufficient to activate.

Gradually increased the magical power until fully infused, but the glazed lamp still couldn't be stimulated.

"Forget it, wait for the mid-stage Foundation Establishment." Helplessly, he could only store it within Gugu's internal universe.

Then Li Ji'an remembered something, hastily taking out the rattle stored at his chest.

This drum was rumored throughout the Cultivation Realm but was actually the first suspicious Dao Artifact he had ever seen.

Summoning the Little Fire Spirit for another cleansing without further ado.

After all, although this item had little power, its peculiarity was too conspicuous, enough that if the Sect knew Fu Hanxing had it, they certainly would place a seal or something similar.

However, with the Little Fire Spirit cleansing it once, Li Ji'an sensed no change, indicating that perhaps the Sect didn't even know Fu Hanxing possessed this item.

After clearing out the belongings of Fu Hanxing's peers, things belonging to a loose cultivator like Liu Xiangshan had less hidden dangers.

As usual, the Little Fire Spirit cleansed it once.

Aside from Spirit Stones, Liu Xiangshan's Storage Pouch contained many array materials and several completed Compass Arrays, though he had already used up his trump card, the Killing Array, the remaining temporary arrays could only be used for self-protection and trapping enemies.

Inside, there was an Array Inheritance Jade Talisman, mostly filled with insights and realizations; the Tier One array inheritance matched the one Granny You gave Li Ji'an back then, and the Tier Two contained a lot of annotations on Killing Arrays and Illusion Arrays, which intrigued Li Ji'an.

Besides that, there was a scroll made of Iron Book.

Completely black, adorned with gold inscriptions, it appeared quite archaic.

"Earth Book?" Looking at the two words on the surface, Li Ji'an was puzzled.

After quickly glancing through its content, Li Ji'an was even more baffled.

"Earth Spirit Master's lineage... Why give this to Granny You? Is it..." Suddenly, Li Ji'an had an epiphany.

"Could the unique sensing of Earth Spirit Mechanisms like Xiaoqiao's be what is described here as an Earth Spirit Master?"

According to the Iron Book, Earth Spirit Masters are naturally favored by the Earth Spirit, born as darlings of the Earth, inherently resonating with the Earth Spirit, capable of geomancy Earth Veins, channeling Earth Spirit, even transforming into an Earth Messenger coexisting with the earth!

After a long while, Li Ji'an closed the Iron Book, his heart stirred profoundly. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Aside from being happy for Xiaoqiao, he was marveling at the mysteriousness of this world!

Simultaneously, he sighed over the transcendent wisdom of the Human Race across millions of years during the Ancient Times!

"Body Cultivator, Soul Cultivator, Dharma Cultivator, Earth Spirit Master... One could imagine the multitudes of attempts and efforts made by the physically weak Human Race during the Archaic Era to ensure the continuity of their race."

"Or perhaps, this proactive quality, ability to learn, think, and innovate, is the Human Race's greatest innate racial Talent Divine Abilities!"

"Sadly, millions of years of accumulated heritage are buried within Ancient Ruins! Otherwise, today's descendants of humanity would be even stronger."

Placing the Earth Book in his chest, Li Ji'an couldn't wait to deliver this delightful surprise to Xiaoqiao.

Seven days later, Gugu had already left the Great Marsh Mountains.

Today, as Li Ji'an prepared to leave Gugu's internal universe, which temporarily resembled some space comprehension, unable to linger for long.

"Liu Jingchun! Today you must give me an explanation."

"Henian, in this life, I owe you; in the next, I'll repay you by being an ox and a horse, but... please no longer push me relentlessly."

Gugu was situated ten zhangs underground, above were Qin Henian and Liu Jingchun's group, demanding accountability.

"Hmph! How dare you say that I am relentless? Die!" Qin Henian, with the Fake Pill's power surging, rushed towards the Liu family group.

"Form the array!" Liu Jingchun was silent, while several individuals beside him threw out Compass Arrays.

In a flash, several light screens rose to the sky, activating the Second Tier Array on the spot.

A single Second Tier Array posed no threat to a Fake Pill True Man, but the Liu family, proficient in arrays, formed a set of Repeating Arrays using eight Compass Arrays.

Inside was the complete Five Elements, with Wind, Fire, Thunder, and Lightning complementing each other, with a hidden threat emerging in an instant.

Even someone as strong as Qin Henian was momentarily trapped within, unable to extricate himself.

"Elder Qin, our Liu family has no intention of being your enemy, this is truly a last resort, forgive us as we take our leave!" Someone beside Liu Jingchun loudly apologized, promptly preparing to lead the family away.

"Hmph! Since when does it fall to a junior like you in the Liu family to speak? Liu Jingchun, do you now only dare to hide behind your clan juniors, being a shrinking turtle?" Qin Henian roared in anger.

Liu Jingchun silently sighed, following the clan members to leave.

"Stay!" Qin Henian shouted furiously, a Four-sided Triangular Cauldron flew out from his Dantian, fiercely smashing towards the Repeating Array that trapped him.

Clang!

"What! He actually summoned the Celestial Spirit Cauldron?" The Liu family steward clansmen were shocked.

Liu Jingchun's gaze became intensely focused: "Henian, why did you have to take this course of action?"

The Celestial Spirit Cauldron was the Qin family's heirloom treasure, a true Seventh Grade magical treasure, even Mid-stage True Core cultivators had to avoid its edge.

The entire Cangyun State was envious, even Biyun Sect's True Pill Elder longed but was unable to obtain it.

Yet, the entire Cangyun State was aware, that more than five hundred years ago, it was damaged during the Fake Pill Ancestor's cleansing of demon cultivators following Ten Thousand Laws Palace's call, its grade fell, even after great expense for repair by a Tier Three Artifact Refiner, it required at least eight hundred years of nurturing for recovery hope.

During nurturing, once activated again, it risked being ruined.

Qin Henian even didn't use it while guarding the front line, but summoned it now for Liu Jingchun.

Rumble~

In the next moment, that Repeating Array capable of trapping True Men shattered.

Qin Henian, carrying overwhelming rage, swept over all the Liu family members.

A group of Foundation Establishment cultivators' Body-Protecting Dharma Shields instantly shattered, all flying backwards.

Liu Jingchun was even grabbed by the neck by Qin Henian, fiercely smashed onto the ground.

Bam!

The earth shook, dust filled the sky.

Just as everyone was worried for Liu Jingchun.

Gugu remained still, not daring to move.

For Qin Henian, after smashing Liu Jingchun into the earth, even brought him underground, barely a zhang from Gugu below them.

"Brother, I never believed you would betray me, was it your clan's old man who coerced you? You only need to nod slightly, and I will storm into the Liu family to seek justice for you!" Qin Henian asked in a deep voice.
