Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 998 - 486: Heaven-Transforming Armor Talisman, Absolute Defense

Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
The magical treasures marveled at the Immortal Prison Hall's profound origins and the superior cultivation environment it provided, while speculating on its destruction and potential threats from Immortals descending to the Mortal World. Jiang Fan received thirty million Luck Points for surviving the Prison Elder's killing intent upon entering the Quiet Chamber. Over the next half year, he cultivated diligently, achieving perfection in the Seventh-Layer Divinity Transformation before breaking through to the Eighth-Layer, enhancing his Primordial Magical Power and divine sense significantly.

"Now, the time has come to inscribe a fresh Life Talisman."

Jiang Fan's gaze shimmered briefly.

He had long settled on his choice for the new Life Talisman—it would undoubtedly be the Thirty-Three Celestial Spirit Talisman known as the Heaven-Transforming Armor Talisman.

This draws its essence from the celestial treasure Heaven-Transforming Armor, which serves as a defensive heavenly relic.

Upon activation, the shadowy form of the armor merges seamlessly with the body, layering over the arms, knee pads, shoulder guards, chest plates, helmet, and additional sections, ensuring not a single vulnerability.

The Heaven-Transforming Armor features an innate auto-defense mechanism. Should an foe's power pierce through the shielding aura and endanger the physical form, it manifests spontaneously to solidify upon the body and repel the assault, offering robust safeguarding to its user.

By grasping this Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman, his protective strengths will surge dramatically.

Strikes from typical cultivators won't be able to injure him anymore; it delivers nearly impenetrable shielding.

Boom~

With these thoughts in mind, Jiang Fan wasted no time, promptly expending a substantial quantity of Luck Points to start grasping this Immortal Realm Talisman.

In that instant, immense volumes of knowledge about the Heaven-Transforming Armor Talisman flooded into the core of his sea of consciousness.

He slipped into a profound state of insight, delving into every secret of this talisman.

Time flew by, and a full month elapsed in no time.

Without a doubt, Jiang Fan had swiftly mastered the Heaven-Transforming Armor Talisman and imprinted this talisman onto his Primordial Spirit, making it one of his Life Talismans.

"It's done."

Jiang Fan felt the spectral image of the Heaven-Transforming Armor Talisman arise within the depths of his Primordial Spirit. This talisman had fully fused with his Primordial Spirit, enabling him to trigger this Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman effortlessly with just a single notion.

Boom~~

All of a sudden, Jiang Fan invoked the Heaven-Transforming Armor Talisman.

The talisman rapidly formed into a colossal golden suit of armor, which then blended into Jiang Fan’s frame, making it seem as though he had donned the celestial treasure Heaven-Transforming Armor.

This armor ensemble harbored tremendous defensive might, forged from splendid energy, bearing densely inscribed creation runes across its exterior, radiating a profound and mysterious presence.

Obviously, with the Heaven-Transforming Armor equipped, regardless of the direction from which an adversary's strike originates, it will be repelled, removing any fears of surprise assaults from enemies.

Even direct, powerful blows against the Heaven-Transforming Armor will be utterly neutralized.

It's akin to retreating inside an immense turtle shell.

Upon acquiring this Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman, Jiang Fan experiences a profound feeling of assurance.

After all, despite possessing myriad offensive strategies, inadequate defense means a lone enemy ambush could spell doom.

Many cultivators boast strong attack prowess yet possess frail defenses, rendering defensive magical items scarcer and costlier, beyond the reach of average practitioners.

Boom~~

With that in his thoughts, Jiang Fan promptly summoned his Virtual Panel.

[Realm: Eighth-Layer Divinity Transformation (28%)]

[Profession: Tier Five High-grade Talisman Master (66%)]

It's clear that his cultivation has surged forward swiftly over this past month.

His progress in cultivation now stands at 28%.

Should he keep up this pace of cultivation, attaining the Ninth-Layer Divinity Transformation within a single year seems entirely feasible.

This qualifies as astonishingly swift advancement.

"Perhaps I'll push myself fully and cultivate straight to the Ninth-Layer Divinity Transformation right here."

Jiang Fan stroked his chin thoughtfully.

He deems the cultivation conditions in this place remarkably superior, seeing no reason to venture out for practice elsewhere.

Remaining here should allow him to swiftly climb to the peak of Divinity Transformation.

At that stage, the distance to Refining Void would narrow considerably.

It's well-known that the divide between Divinity Transformation and Refining Void looms vast beyond imagination.

In the Spirit Ruins Realm, reaching at least the Void Refining stage is essential for any real ability to protect oneself.

A simple Divinity Transformation Cultivator remains far too vulnerable, utterly inadequate.

Boom~~

Right then, a notification abruptly seeped into the core of his sea of consciousness.

"Fate remains ever unpredictable, and though you desire to stay secluded in the Quiet Chamber for cultivation, such a path proves unattainable since the Prison Elder tires of your extended isolation."

"Should you persist in cultivating onward, the Prison Elder will surely wield his control to compel your transfer to Gouwu Mountain, offering no avenue for evasion."

"Fate offers you a clue."

"Fate Clue One: While as a Ninth Grade Prison Guard, access to the Basic Cultivation Quiet Chamber counts as one of your perks, the duration of use carries limits. Surpassing those bounds permits the Prison Elder, in his role as the Artifact Spirit, to oust you, and potentially to mandate your relocation to Gouwu Mountain."
