第两千零三十六章 新剑出炉

Chapter 2036: New Sword出炉

The materials he had were mostly from the Spirit Realm, and any one of them could spark a frenzied competition among cultivators in the Twelve States of Heaven Cloud.

Lin Xuan swept his gaze over these materials, muttering to himself. "With these materials as support, it should be sufficient."

However, his tone carried an uncertain undertone. After all, something like the Heavenly Treasure was considered a divine object that defied nature. Even just reattaching the broken sword would require rare and precious materials far beyond those needed for ordinary magical artifacts.

Fortunately, Lin Xuan's wealth was vast. His pouch still contained many treasures, so even if he lacked anything, he could find substitutes.

Lin Xuan sat in silence for a moment, adjusting his mind and spirit to their best state.

Then, he clasped his hands, forming a mystical seal, and raised his right hand, pointing forward with a sharp flick.

A green light flashed, enveloping the small tripod as it slowly rose into the air.

Next, Lin Xuan waved his sleeve, sending out a streak of emerald flames. This was the infant fire he had cultivated for nearly a thousand years, warming up the tripod first.

Unlike when making pills, the flames flickered and changed color, not just enveloping the tripod but also the entire body of it, with the colors shifting unpredictably.

Earth, Metal, Water, Fire, Wood!

Lin Xuan's spirit root’s attributes aside, he could control and use the Five Elements. Over time, his infant fire gained these elemental properties as well.

The preheating took about half an hour.

Then Lin Xuan raised his right hand, pointing forward with a flick.

Puff…

The tripod lid flew up, spinning before floating in mid-air.

Lin Xuan's left hand wasn't idle either. He grabbed and shook the lid off a jade box on the ground, revealing a layer of white powder inside.

It looked like crushed pearls.

Of course, its actual value was incomparable; it was made from the powdered remains of a妖兽 (monster) at the Separation Stage, with traces of true spirit blood. Although extremely thin, this was already quite rare.

This single box of powdered妖丹 (monster's essence) could be worth as much as a mid-rank sect’s accumulation over a thousand years.

Lin Xuan was not stingy and tossed all of it into the tripod furnace.

Whoosh…

The flames roared to life, spreading an odd fragrance. Lin Xuan's eyes flashed with sharpness, but he didn't make any extra movements. The two broken sword pieces floated up.

"Combine!"

With a sharp command from Lin Xuan, the two broken swords fused together. Lin Xuan flipped his hand, and a bright flame appeared.

Four-color glass seemed mysterious.

Of course, it was the Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire.

If not for his mastery of this secret technique, Lin Xuan would have had no confidence in repairing the Magic Fate Sword. The requirements for refining tools with flames were often extremely high, let alone Heavenly Treasures where even the infant fire at the Profound Stage wouldn't suffice.

Lin Xuan raised both hands, forming one mystical seal after another. The four-color glass flame flickered and changed shape.

The process took three days and nights of intense heating.

Finally, a molten state appeared on the edge of the broken sword.

Lin Xuan was elated as he took deep breaths. The Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire became even more brilliant. Then, he waved his sleeve, causing ripples in space. A series of light flashes appeared before him.

These lights flickered and transformed into arms like lotus stems, opening jars and adding various materials to the tripod furnace one by one.

Though this process seemed simple, it required precise timing and order; a single mistake could undo all progress.

Despite his outward calm, Lin Xuan was somewhat tense. Although he was wealthy, if these materials were wasted, it would be difficult to gather them again.

As more materials were added, the fragrance grew stronger, spreading from the tripod furnace. While this aroma might not benefit one's body, as a Profound Stage cultivator, Lin Xuan could ignore its effects.

After over two weeks, all the materials finally dissolved.

The lid opened, revealing milky white liquid that looked like ancient stone stalactites. The fragrance grew even stronger.

"Quick!"

Lin Xuan flicked his finger forward, enveloping the broken swords in spiritual light as they fell into the tripod furnace. The lid flashed and spun back to its place on top of the furnace.

Satisfied, Lin Xuan raised his head, silver light emanating from his eyes as he activated the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye.

This secret technique not only revealed illusions and restrictions but also allowed for clear vision through obstacles like mountains. Using this technique, Lin Xuan could see how well the Magic Fate Sword was being repaired. This was because Lin Xuan had mastered multiple incredible techniques; otherwise, another cultivator with similar skills would be unable to perform it.

Time passed day by day.

Two months seemed short to ordinary people but were mere blinks for cultivators.

One day, a clear sound echoed from the tripod furnace.

It wasn't like the roar of dragons or phoenixes, yet it was incredibly high-pitched and filled with an imposing aura.

No… not just one. It sounded as if several spirit beasts were calling simultaneously before merging into one.

Despite constantly monitoring the furnace, Lin Xuan's expression showed surprise at this moment.

At that exact moment, several beams of light suddenly burst from the furnace, shielding his divine sense and even the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye.

However, amidst shock, Lin Xuan felt joy.

In times like these, treasures often appeared. This repaired Magic Fate Sword seemed to be even better than expected.

Lin Xuan's expression turned hopeful as he waved his sleeve, opening the lid of the furnace, and the surrounding flames flew back into his sleeves.

Boom!

A surging surge of spiritual energy erupted from the tripod furnace.

Actually, four streams.

The white was metal, green was wood, blue was water, red was fire…

Though not all five elements were present, earth was missing.

Then, these four streams of energy converged. The entire practice room began to crumble.

But Lin Xuan didn't care about that at the moment.

Clear sounds and powerful roars filled his vision as four massive spirit beast shadows appeared.

Despite their differences, each had a noble or rebellious aura emanating from them…

: A donation of 50,000 coins was made by Soul Daoist Fellow贺兰山. Thank you, Soul Lord, for your support and encouragement. I will work hard to repay it. Also, today is a day worth celebrating. Bai Lian has surpassed ten million, which might not be significant to great deities but means a lot to me. Without the companionship and support of fellow daoists, there would be no achievements for Bai Lian.

Thank you all. Please continue supporting Bai Lian. Also, please check your storage bags; any new ones are needed by Bai Lian. Thank you! I need 500 votes before the end of this month!
