Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
Jiang Fan masters the powerful Heaven-Shaking Hammer Talisman, advancing the skill level of his Life Talismans to Mastery. He reflects on the rapid cultivation speed granted by Heaven's Gifts and the advantages of mastering Immortal Realm Spirit Talismans for comprehending Dao Rhyme.
Materials that rank above Tier Seven generally contain Dao Rhyme, it was explained. No wonder items of Tier Seven and Tier Eight carried such hefty price tags. They weren't just useful for crafting Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasures and Immortal Artifacts; they could also aid Integration and even Mahayana Cultivators in grasping the profound Dao Rhyme of Laws. Furthermore, these valuable materials were consumable, losing all worth once the Dao Rhyme within them dissipated. Jiang Fan's eyes gleamed as he understood the unparalleled preciousness and exorbitant cost of Tier Seven and Eight materials compared to lower-tiered ones. The Golden Crow Iron he possessed earlier, for instance, held remarkable properties due to its significant Law Dao Rhyme content. This material could stir fluctuations in the Heaven and Earth Laws, summoning the Power of Laws. A cultivator adept in the Dao Rhyme of fire would likely rejoice upon obtaining Golden Crow Iron, seeing it as a chance for enlightenment. Yet, materials imbued with Dao Rhyme were exceedingly rare and difficult to find. "However, it was precisely this Golden Crow Iron that allowed the Great Sun Buddha Mirror to be fully repaired," Jiang Fan mused, retrieving the mirror from his person. Currently, the Great Sun Buddha Mirror was immaculate, free of any flaws. Intricate Dao patterns, emanating immense power, adorned its frame. It appeared as if numerous great suns were embedded deep within the mirror's surface, capable of unleashing cataclysmic force if unleashed. Its might was immeasurably greater than before. More crucially, this Magical Treasure had fostered a new Artifact Spirit. Though newly formed and exceedingly weak, its spirituality would undoubtedly grow with further nurturing. Apart from the Great Sun Buddha Mirror, the fragment of the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall he had acquired also contributed to its restored power and mended its deficiencies. Previously, the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall only possessed capabilities like void transmission and equivalent exchange. Now, it boasted a new ability: Causal Contract. Once a contract was finalized, the other party was forbidden from divulging any information about the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall. Additionally, agreed-upon transactions had to be completed, with the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall punishing defaulters by seizing all their possessions—an original function of the hall. It was this very ability that enabled the Wanbao Immortal King to amass a vast network of merchants across various realms, establishing him as a paramount figure in the Immortal Realm. With this new ability cultivated, the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall had become even more formidable. "My own Cultivation progress is also quite satisfactory," Jiang Fan noted. "Moreover, the Origin Energy from the Heavenly Dao has not been entirely assimilated yet. If fully digested, it should be sufficient to advance my Cultivation to at least the Third Layer of Integration." Jiang Fan stroked his chin, sensing his Cultivation was advancing well, already reaching 13%. He acknowledged that the pace of Cultivation naturally diminishes significantly after entering the Integration Realm. Further blessings from the Heavenly Dao could potentially accelerate his progress. However, eradicating a Demon Cave presented a formidable challenge, requiring specific timing, location, and the right team. The sheer number of demons guarding such a place was immense, and any delay could lead to reinforcements arriving, possibly even Mahayana-level demons. A reckless assault on a Demon Cave would be tantamount to seeking one's own demise. "Hmm? Is this a message from Weiwei?" Jiang Fan's attention was drawn by a sensation. He glanced at the Cause and Effect Communication Immortal Talisman he carried, revealing numerous messages from Su Weiwei. Su Weiwei, aware of his cultivation seclusion, primarily sent updates concerning the Void Realm. Since his advancement to the Body Integration Realm, he couldn't return to the Void Realm without facing restrictions. He had been residing in the Spirit Ruins Realm for cultivation due to this. Nevertheless, during his absence, the Void Realm had seen continuous development, with its Spiritual Qi concentration increasing further. This heightened concentration had consequently led to the emergence of more High-Tier Demon Beasts.
The cultivators from the Ancient Sects have been seen with greater frequency. It's gotten to the point where they've started learning about the Primordial Talisman Sect's existence, secretly probing for information and escalating the chaos.
Naturally, with his avatar still in the Void Realm, there was no immediate concern about the Primordial Talisman Sect facing any dire situations. However, the territories controlled by the Primordial Talisman Sect were undeniably vast. Furthermore, the cultivators within the Primordial Talisman Sect had only recently commenced their cultivation journey, with their current cultivation level resting merely at the Divinity Transformation stage. If they were to face cultivators from the Ancient Sects who were in the Refining Void stage, resistance might prove futile.
It was this very concern that led Su Weiwei to hope he could capture some Tier Six Demon Beasts. These beasts would serve as the Sect Guardian Spirit Beasts for the Primordial Talisman Sect, rapidly bolstering the sect's overall strength.
"Tier Six Demon Beasts?"
"If they are beings at the Void Refining Level, then there are quite a number of them within the Spirit Ruins Realm." Jiang Fan mused, stroking his chin.
While Integration Cultivators were considered top-tier powerhouses and exceedingly rare in the Spirit Ruins Realm, the abundance of cultivation resources there meant that Void Refining Cultivators were plentiful. Capturing some Void Refining Demon Beasts from the Spirit Ruins Realm and bringing them to the Primordial Talisman Sect would effectively address the sect's deficiency in high-tier combat power.
