Chapter 594: Chapter 281: Half-step Spiritual Treasure, Nine Heavens Thunder Spirit
Taijing City, on the edge of Nanli Immortal Fang, in a certain fourth-stage Cave Mansion, a young man activated the restrictions and closed the Cave Mansion’s door. Then, he took out two identical magic treasures from his Qiankun Ring.
This young man was naturally Han Yi.
This Cave Mansion on the edge of the Immortal Fang was for rent, with options ranging from first-stage to fourth-stage, providing enough support for Golden Core cultivators’ cultivation.
Han Yi rented the highest grade fourth-stage Cave Mansion for a month.
Moreover.
With his cautious nature, he set up a formation in the Cave Mansion first.
This formation was obtained in the Tianshu World’s boundless Corpse Zone.
In that boundless Corpse Zone, Han Yi found the bodies of two Nascent Soul cultivators who had turned into Corpse Puppets. He took their Qiankun Rings.
This Immortal Affinity was a tremendous opportunity for him.
He later guessed that those Nascent Soul cultivators who had turned into Corpse Puppets must have ventured deep into the Corpse Zone and encountered Yuan Shun. They disturbed Yuan Shun and were killed by the seals formed by the corpse qi.
And if it wasn’t for the black pearl in his Sea of Consciousness suddenly jumping out and absorbing the corpse qi seal, he would have probably met the same fate.
However, if anyone else without the Light Body Technique dared to provoke the Corpse Puppet, it would be a nine-to-one chance of death for them.
At this moment, Han Yi took out a set of formations, which was in fact a real fourth-stage Array Method. Moreover, it was a fourth-stage middle-grade array, which combined defense and attack in one.
If used for defense, it could withstand attacks from anyone below the Nascent Soul Late Stage for a period of time. If used for offense, when fully activated, even a Mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator would be instantly killed if struck by it.
Its name was: Nine Heavens Thunder Spirit Formation.
However, this fourth-stage middle-grade array was a true devourer of spiritual energy. Simply maintaining its basic activation state required a massive amount of high-quality Spirit Stones. If it needed to launch an attack, even more Spirit Stones would be consumed.
And what Han Yi had in abundance was Spirit Stones.
Especially after killing over a dozen Evil Saints in the Illuminating World, plundering the Purple Cloud Sect’s stronghold in Tianquan World, and sweeping through the boundless Corpse Zone.
One could say that even Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators might not have as many Spirit Stones and Spiritual Items as him.
In the Cave Mansion.
Aside from the main formation console, forty-nine Array Flags were placed at various locations. In an instant, a flash of light flickered, and faint flashes of lightning shimmered in the void. The lightning disappeared without a trace, but it concealed deadly dangers.
After setting up the Nine Heavens Thunder Spirit Formation.
Han Yi took out two Sword Tools, which were identical. To prevent accidents, he put these two Sword Tools in two separate Qiankun Rings.
At this moment.
On his left was the Green Reed Sword, which had already fused with two breaking swords. On his right was the brand-new Green Reed Breaking Sword that he had just bought from the Supreme Pavilion.
The one he owned was a top-grade magic treasure, while the newly purchased one was a lower-grade magic treasure.
Speaking of which.
Each of his Green Reed Swords had their own origins.
The first one was the legacy of a Supreme Elder from Xuandan Sect, the second one was obtained in Yuan Lao Mountain’s sacred ground, the third one was obtained from a cultivator in the Tianshu World, and the fourth one, which was now in his possession, was purchased at the Supreme Pavilion. But if the Foundation Establishment shopkeeper was not lying, it should have been obtained from an Evil Saint in the Eastern Sea, meaning it came from the Illuminating World.
Four Sword Tools, scattered across the Beidou Region.
At this moment, inside the Cave Mansion, the two Sword Tools vibrated and attracted each other as they approached the center, and then began to slowly merge into one.
However, this fusion took much longer than any previous attempt.
It took a full half-day or six hours for them to fuse completely.
Instantly, an aura beyond that of a top-grade magic treasure spread out, causing even the fourth-stage Cave Mansion to be affected and start to vibrate.
Outside the Cave Mansion, a Late-stage Golden Core cultivator who was in charge of the Immortal Fang suddenly opened his eyes, operated the Immortal Fang’s formation, determined the location of the vibration, and instantly arrived in front of Han Yi’s Cave Mansion.
“Fellow Daoist, one can only cultivate in the Cave Mansion at Nanli Immortal Fang, and not perform magic skills. Please put away your magic skill to prevent damage to the Cave Mansion and Spirit Vein,” the Golden Core cultivator said loudly. His voice passed through the formation and into the Cave Mansion. Even in this situation, the Cave Mansion could only be opened from the inside and could not be destroyed from the outside.
As soon as he finished speaking, the shaking of the Cave Mansion stopped, and a voice nonchalantly replied, “Apologies for the disturbance. Rest assured, fellow Daoist, I will not make any more noise that will affect the Cave Mansion and the Spirit Vein.”
The Golden Core cultivator outside the Cave Mansion waited for a while and, seeing no further abnormalities, turned and left.
Inside the Cave Mansion.
Han Yi held the Green Reed Sword in his hand, and while the long sword still gently vibrated, it was no longer as intense, showing its full spirituality. Even more so, there was a strong desire constantly emanating from the Sword Tool, stirring a new emotion within Han Yi that left him astonished.
A half-step Treasure.
The sword’s majesty displayed just now and its surging spirituality at this moment seemed to prove that the Sword Tool had already transformed into a half-step Treasure.
Just one step away from a true Spiritual Treasure.
As long as he could integrate the next breaking sword, he would definitely be able to complete the transformation into a Spiritual Treasure.
However, at this moment, Han Yi paid more attention to this strong desire.
“Could it be that this Green Reed Sword’s spirituality has evolved so much that it can already sense the whereabouts of the other breaking swords? If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be possible to quickly find the next breaking sword by following its guidance, and after merging with it, the transformation into a Spiritual Treasure would be imminent?”
Han Yi’s Inner Heart flickered with excitement. If he truly had a Spiritual Treasure, his combat power would absolutely double, and even against a Mid-stage Nascent Soul, he would have the confidence to fight.
