The elder’s eyes were sharp as he looked toward where the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was gathering. With just a glance, he guessed what was happening based on his rich experience.
"Spiritual Qi is gathering, yet no tribulation clouds are forming. Could it be that a fellow cultivator is refining a top-tier magical artifact?"
Murmuring to himself, he then saw the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi gathering even faster, swiftly forming a massive vortex of spiritual energy, converging towards one spot.
"Tsk tsk tsk, it seems a top-tier magical artifact is indeed about to be born. I wonder which fellow has such extraordinary skills, truly remarkable."
At the sa ti, not only this elder, but also many cultivators within a hundred-mile radius, including those in Nanhe Market, noticed this scene, attracted by this celestial phenonon.
In the comrce association, Hou Haixia was entertaining guests, introducing elixirs. When she noticed many cultivators outside looking up at a certain direction, curiosity arose in her mind.
"What’s going on?"
The guest, curious for a mont, ran outside to check. Hou Haixia promptly followed, stepping onto the street and looking in the direction everyone was staring.
Upon seeing, her expression imdiately shifted.
"Isn’t that the cave mansion of the senior? Could it be they have refined so powerful treasure?"
With this thought in mind, Hou Haixia dared not delay and imdiately took out a communication talisman to relay the news to Xu Deliang of the Profound Yang Sect.
Regarding the outside commotion, Lu Ping in the seclusion chamber of the cave mansion had long been aware. However, he didn’t bother paying much attention, focusing entirely on a scroll suspended before him.
After more than nine years of refining, from slting to fusion, this process had failed once and undergone a second refinent.
Fortunately, lessons were learned from the second attempt, and after three more years, the fusion step was completed.
Onto the subsequent shaping step, which was also ticulously crafted without the slightest relaxation or carelessness.
The final inscription of array patterns was the most critical step, where array patterns needed to be inscribed to activate the spiritual treasure’s power.
This path of array inscription was interconnected with formations, sothing Lu Ping had learned over the years of cultivation.
Following the recording of the Infinite Celestial Fire Immortal Technique, it was entirely possible to complete this inscription process using the gourd as a model.
A total of eighty-one array patterns, ticulously inscribed by Lu Ping, passed by unnoticed as ti went on.
The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi gathered above the cave mansion began to converge before Lu Ping, gradually pouring into the Infinite Celestial Fire Map.
Using the vast Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi as energy and activating the spiritual treasure’s power through array patterns, this was the entire inscription process.
As the last array pattern was completed, the Infinite Celestial Fire Map suspended before him flashed brightly, emitting a dazzling light like a small sun.
At this mont, this spiritual treasure declared its great success.
After approximately ten years of refining, it was finally successfully crafted. With a thought, the Infinite Celestial Fire Map hovered into Lu Ping’s hand.
Even without using his divine sense, he could feel the imnse power contained within, far surpassing the lifebound magical treasures of Nascent Soul cultivators.
Such a powerful artifact, even if it fell into the hands of a Nascent Soul cultivator, could not be activated by such powerful beings.
Upon completing the crafting of the lifebound spiritual treasure, the phenonon of spiritual energy gathering in the sky slowly dissipated.
Around the cave mansion, many cultivators still watched intently, wanting to see which master had triggered such a celestial phenonon.
"Looks like it succeeded."
The earlier white-haired elder stroked his beard, smiling as he considered visiting to observe and et Lu Ping.
Lu Ping ca out of the cave mansion, finding many eyes watching, including several Golden Core cultivators.
The closest was the white-haired elder, whose cultivation had reached the peak of the Golden Core Stage, on the verge of forming a Nascent Soul.
Seeing Lu Ping’s gaze, the white-haired elder imdiately smiled and nodded in greeting, sending a communication as well.
"Junior Lin Lizhi, greets the senior and congratulates the senior on the spiritual treasure’s great success."
The fact that this person could guess the refining of a spiritual treasure was not surprising. Lu Ping nodded lightly in acknowledgnt and then flew out of the cave mansion, prepared to return to the Cyan Mountain Sect.
Under the watchful eyes of many, Lu Ping stepped into the air, and his body vanished in a flash.
Such extre speed, far exceeding the instant teleportation of Nascent Soul cultivators, imdiately elicited an uproar from the crowd.
"Such... such amazing speed!"
Lin Lizhi, who was closer to Lu Ping, showed a look of shock upon perceiving the magical power fluctuations Lu Ping exhibited during his instant teleportation.
"My god, that’s a... Divinity Transformation Stage Great Cultivator!"
At the Hongfu Comrce Association, Hou Haixia warmly received Lu Ping’s arrival, showing utmost respect and offering to refund the cave mansion lease for free.
The Profound Yang Sect on that side had long issued orders, stating that Lu Ping could stay as long as he liked, without any worries about expenses.
Lu Ping accepted this goodwill with a light nod, without being overly polite.
In the gaze of Hou Haixia and others, Lu Ping soared away from Nanhe Market on a sword light, swiftly becoming a black dot in the distance.
Regarding Lu Ping’s exit from seclusion, Hou Haixia promptly reported to the Profound Yang Sect.
anwhile, Lu Ping began crossing the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars, flying towards the Chu Kingdom, successfully reaching the Cyan Mountain Sect.
Back at Cyan Lotus Mountain, Lu Ping found Lu Yuanshan, informing him of his complete return.
Lu Ping handed over all other materials from the Dark Demon Flood Dragon, including resources acquired from demon beasts, to Lu Yuanshan for safekeeping, for future use in artifact refining, alchemy, and talisman making.
After chatting for a while, Lu Ping learned about the sect’s current situation.
Currently, the Cyan Mountain Sect had beco the number one sect in Lingxi State, its formidable influence extending to Yongning State and the Qingli Sea.
Even the Dubhe Institute regarded the Cyan Mountain Sect with so wariness, establishing friendly relations.
The Cyan Mountain Sect was now recruiting disciples not only from the Chu Kingdom and Lingxi State but also opening its gates to the nine major regions under the dominion of the Beidou Bureau.
This had led to a continuous increase in disciples over the years, now exceeding ten thousand, with the sect’s territory expanding further.
Cyan Lotus Mountain, as the sect’s center, had nurous spirit veins and cave mansions constructed around it.
Considering the sect’s future developnt and the need for cultivation resources, Lu Yuanshan and others were aware that they would eventually have to advance into the Central Ancestral Realm.
Lu Ping proposed establishing a branch in the Central Ancestral Realm, receiving support from Lu Yuanshan.
Lu Ping had ntioned this idea earlier, and Lu Yuanshan and others were already aware.
Now it was ti to take action and start putting it into practice.
