Chapter 1834 - 920: Little Red Sky Collapses, Sea-settling Pearl Completed
Chapter 1834: Chapter 920: Little Red Sky Collapses, Sea-settling Pearl Completed
With the mindset of a researcher, Chen Mobai instructed Wenren Xuewei. Back when he was focused on Nascent Soul Formation, he didn’t deeply delve into the process or feel it thoroughly.
If the Sutra of Void is to be published in the future, it certainly needs to be accompanied by some successful examples and experiences.
“Absolutely, wait for my good news.”
Wenren Xuewei confidently said, relying on Lasting Spring Cultivation, she could have successfully formed a Nascent Soul long ago.
By this time next year, the Immortal Gate will have another Nascent Soul Superior.
Chen Mobai was also happy for her.
The success of Wenren Xuewei also validated the feasibility of Chen Mobai’s second Sutra of Void paper. For a time, all Foundation Establishment Practitioners in the Immortal Gate who had their own pursuits began to download and discuss the insights of cultivating the Small Void Technique on various major forums, sharing the glory of successfully opening a domain at the ninth layer of Foundation Establishment.
Even Beiming Master personally called Chen Mobai, wanting him, as the honorary principal of Kunpeng Daoist Institute, to come and teach the newly established void course to teachers and students, to talk about the Sutra of Void.
To this end, Chen Mobai expressed that his papers and understanding of the void were still in the formative stage, with many imperfections, and to avoid misleading students, he would not be giving lectures.
Regarding Chen Mobai’s rigorous and serious attitude, Beiming Master also held great admiration.
After the Sutra of Void paper appeared, Chen Mobai had already become an undisputed grand master on the Path of Space within the Immortal Gate, unmatched by anyone, and yet he remained so humble.
However, this careful approach was also the consistent attitude of scholarship within the Immortal Gate. Because once their knowledge is published, it is aimed at billions of cultivators, and any errors or omissions can have unimaginable consequences.
As for papers, at least downloading them requires some permissions, avoiding unqualified individuals from practicing recklessly.
After uploading the paper, Chen Mobai occasionally checked the comments and feedback while also teaching his daughter to practice the external Small Void.
According to his ideas, Chen Xiaohei could condense five external Small Voids to store the Five Elements Spiritual Power, thus achieving even perfection when combining into One Qi of True Essence.
To this, Chen Xiaohei thought her father was simply a genius to come up with this method.
In fact, it was Chen Mobai’s experience from initially purchasing the Void Spiritual Energy Package.
Time slowly passed in this way.
This day, Chen Mobai finally completed the design of the three Magic Artifacts for Qing Nu.
He enhanced his Artifact Refining Technique and wrote the Sutra of Void primarily in preparation for this.
Two of them were gourds obtained from Loquat Valley, and the other was the Taiyuan Blue Pearl that extracted Innate Water Element Essence Qi.
He modified the two gourds according to the requirements proposed by Qing Nu back then.
Among them, the Blue Skinned Gourd contained mist, which, when released, could transform into a natural illusion formation. Chen Mobai preserved this and integrated the “As You Wish Water Mist” Grand Spell of the Longevity Sect, allowing Qing Nu to effortlessly amplify the power of this Grand Spell to the Rank-4 level by merely infusing Abyss True Water, even if the Divine Sense of Nascent Soul Cultivators fell in, they couldn’t see through.
The other Red Skinned Gourd perfectly demonstrated Chen Mobai’s Artifact Refining skills.
Everything Qing Nu mentioned back then, he accomplished. First, isolating a Small Void separately for the Hearth Spirit Flame within the gourd, and then constructing several spaces inside the gourd using the Power of Void, allowing not only the storage of elixirs, minerals, and other inanimate objects but also for spirit plants and spirit beasts to survive.
This Rank-4 Red Skinned Gourd is a top-tier storage artifact even in the Tianhe Realm, causing immense competition.
Finally, there is the Rank-5 Taiyuan Blue Pearl.
At Chen Mobai’s current level, it was evident that he could not refine a Rank-5 Magic Artifact, but he imitated a Sea-settling Pearl based on the Sea-settling Sword, a creation of Ancestor Yun Ya.
Similar to the effect of the millennium pearls on the sword hilt, Qing Nu can store the Abyss True Water she has condensed within, to be taken out and refined during a Magic Duel or Realm Breakthrough.
However, due to the high grade of the Taiyuan Blue Pearl, if Qing Nu wants to fill it with her Abyss True Water, she would need spiritual power several hundred times her current realm.
Besides storing spiritual power, Chen Mobai also inscribed the Water Droplet Sword and Azure Water Sky Net, two Grand Spells of attack and defense, within it.
When Qing Nu faces an enemy, as long as this Sea-settling Pearl is suspended overhead, she not only possesses nearly infinite spiritual power but can also at any time condense the Abyss True Water within the Pearl into a sword to attack the enemy or form a water curtain for defense, etc.
Moreover, due to the Taiyuan Blue Pearl being infused with Innate Dao Rhythm, Chen Mobai also referenced Primordial Yang Treasure Beads and incorporated transformations that can evolve into a Second Nascent Soul or even Second Primeval Spirit.
This Sea-settling Pearl, although not a Rank-5 Magic Artifact, already has the essence of Rank-5. It only needs to be refined and nurtured for a long time by Qing Nu until spiritual nature is born, then it will be a true Rank-5.
“You’re really amazing; with your Artifact Refining skill, I estimate you are already on par with Master Chengxuan and Ancestor Qian Xing.”
Qing Nu, after receiving the three Magic Artifacts refined by Chen Mobai for her and listening to the mysteries of each, sincerely expressed her feelings of admiration.
The Five Rank Artifact Refining Technique of the Immortal Gate, restricted by resource conditions, relies on opportunity to pass the assessment.
Ancestor Qian Xing, achieving Rank-5, made a Rank-5 Heavenly Calculation Bead, accommodating all the transformations of the Sky Curtain Ground Network Great Formation.
As for Master Chengxuan, achieving Rank-5 as an Artifact Refiner was due to encountering Ancestor Bai Guang needing a Rank-5 Flying Sword to be refined. The materials and such were already gathered by Ancestor Bai Guang. After Chengxuan completed the task, he smoothly obtained the Rank-5 certificate.
Of course, before that, Master Chengxuan had already passed all the written exams for Rank-5 Artifact Refining knowledge at the Immortal Gate, personally set by Ancestor Qian Xing.
If Chen Mobai wants to obtain a Rank-5 Artifact Refiner certificate from the Immortal Gate, he will need to take these two steps.
First pass the exam, then wait for an opportunity for practical assessment.
So when Qing Nu saw the Taiyuan Blue Pearl, she believed that even in the Immortal Gate, Chen Mobai’s Artifact Refining skill was already at the Rank-5 level.
“Not at all, compared to the principal, I’m somewhat inferior, and completely incomparable to Ancestor Qian Xing.”
To this, Chen Mobai was still very conscious. The reason he could help Qing Nu refine these three outstanding Magic Artifacts that meet her desires was that he had devoted himself entirely to them.
From conceptualization to practice, he had pondered for over ten years, having every requirement and every step well in mind, resulting in the quality of these Magic Artifacts.
If it were to refine some other thematic Magic Artifact, he would certainly not match Master Chengxuan and Ancestor Qian Xing.
“This pearl is called ’Sea-settling,’ then what should these two gourds be called? We can’t keep calling them Blue Skinned and Red Skinned, right?”
Qing Nu was extremely satisfied with the “Sea-settling Pearl” refined from the Taiyuan Blue Pearl, and it just so happened that Chen Mobai had a “Sea-settling Sword,” making them a pair of Magic Artifacts.
“Do you have any ideas? The items are already yours; you can name them.”
Chen Mobai smiled and said to Qing Nu, who, after some thought, pointed at the Blue Skinned Gourd and said, “Ruyi!”
And then pointed at the Red Skinned Gourd and said, “Wanhua!”
