第两千七百一十七章 提纯仙石(上)

That was merely a case of worrying over nothing.

Let everything take its natural course.

With this thought, Lin Xuan returned to his cave dwelling. There were still many things he needed to do now.

As for the avatar side, since it was already well-prepared, there was no need to worry about anything extra.

Lin Xuan had confidence in his own strength. Even if something unexpected happened, the avatar would be able to handle it.

He decided to first see what his senior brothers and sisters had brought him.

With that thought, Lin Xuan flicked his sleeve.

A burst of spiritual light flashed before a pale silver box appeared before him. It was not more than half a foot long and emitted a faint fragrance.

This was the one sent by those three junior disciples just now.

"Quickly!"

Lin Xuan raised his right hand and pointed it at the front.

With such an unremarkable action, a "thud" sounded in his ears as the restrictions on the box were lifted. The lid opened to reveal several black stones inside.

At first glance, they did not seem impressive, but to Lin Xuan, a high-ranking cultivator, their extraordinary nature was evident.

There seemed to be some extremely powerful spiritual energy left on them, no... it wasn't spiritual energy; it should be something even more advanced. However, these were mixed with strange impurities, turning what could have been precious spirit stones into waste. Even if the grade was off the charts, they would still be unusable.

Indeed, the pale silver box contained nothing but waste spirit stones.

Lin Xuan roughly counted them and found there were twelve in total.

Upon realizing this, a trace of excitement flashed across his eyes.

Spirit stones... in the Spirit Realm, these truly were something remarkable. Even for old monsters at the Tribulation Transcending stage, they were heaven-defying treasures, almost unattainable.

He casually picked one out, and it could easily trigger bloodshed. The conflict between the three sects and Cloud Concealing Sect was a good example.

Originally, he had already obtained a finished spirit stone.

Now with twelve more waste stones, if he could refine them...

Lin Xuan couldn't help but feel excited at this thought.

Spirit stones were indeed extraordinary, but refining these wastes wasn't easy. He had only just entered the Immortal Path and possessed the Blue Star Sea. His achievements were partly due to this treasure, so he was already quite familiar with how to use it.

Refinement sounded wonderful, but it wasn't that simple.

Firstly, there was only one chance for refinement; if it failed, impurities would mutate and become even more entangled, leaving no further opportunity.

Secondly, many things could be refined, but the difficulty varied. As the grade increased, so did the difficulty.

Fortunately, the Blue Star Sea wasn't static.

As Lin Xuan's strength grew, the volume of the star sea expanded, and its refining capabilities gradually enhanced.

However, he still felt somewhat unprepared. Fortunately, part of the light points in the Blue Star Sea had turned silver.

The refinement ability of these silver light points was much greater than ordinary blue ones.

But this challenge was no small matter; spirit stones were divine treasures. Could the silver light points truly refine them?

Lin Xuan wasn't sure and didn't have much confidence, but he believed that trying was necessary to know the outcome.

After all, he wouldn't know if he could do it unless he tried himself.

Lin Xuan certainly wasn't lacking in courage.

With twelve spirit stones as waste materials, this cost was more than enough for him to take a risk.

This was the saying: the greater the risk, the greater the reward. Lin Xuan had that kind of awareness.

Clearing his mind, Lin Xuan first calmed down his somewhat agitated emotions. Although he had been refining for years and found it quite familiar, he still couldn't claim a 100% success rate. Especially this time, dealing with spirit stones, even though he was well-versed in various treasures, this grade of treasure was something new to him. Thus, he remained cautious.

With a few breaths, Lin Xuan sank into his divine sense and used Inner Vision. Everything in the dantian remained unchanged; the Blue Star Sea continued its slow rotation deep within, calm and undisturbed. The difference now was that the innermost layer of the star sea had an overwhelmingly large number of silver light points compared to before, almost taking up one-fifth of the entire volume.

Back then, when he first obtained this treasure, the star sea's size had expanded by thousands of times. Hence, even with only a fifth of it being silver light points, that was already quite impressive.

Clearly, these were the main force for refinement.

After all, refining higher-grade materials was more difficult. Even facing spirit realm beings, the blue light points were showing signs of strain.

Spirit stones?

Lin Xuan suspected that the blue light points had no use.

Of course, this was just his guess; he needed to try and see before making a conclusion.

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Xuan's actions didn't stop. He took deep breaths and began using divine consciousness to mobilize the light points within his body.

This refinement was different from previous ones, so Lin Xuan had to be meticulous about the sequence of light point mobilization.

The first were pure blue light points densely packed together, almost crowded without any gaps.

His body's resilience compared to a demon race and the capacity of his meridians were already beyond comprehension. Otherwise, another cultivator at the same stage with such a number of blue light points flowing through their meridians would have exploded long ago.

But for Lin Xuan, it was nothing.

No discomfort showed on his face.

Following the pure blue light points, there were two different colored lights flashing—blue and silver. They intertwined in a 2:1 ratio.

After all, the number of silver light points was still insufficient; mixing them with blue ones could complement each other. This experience came from years of Lin Xuan's exploration, and it was undoubtedly useful.
