第两千九百一十一章 封灵玉

"This is... a..."

Peng mouthed the words quickly, his gaze falling upon the scene before him. Lin Xuan was left speechless. Despite his extensive knowledge and experience, he had never heard of such a place or seen it.

Before him lay a vast lake of molten lava, covering an area of over a hundred acres. The lava surged and roared within.

Lin Xuan was still in a subterranean cave. Due to the intense heat from this molten lava lake, even ordinary humans would struggle to withstand it. Lesser cultivators without proper protective treasures might not fare much better.

However, Lin Xuan had no such concerns. His cultivation was at the late Spirit Formation stage, and his essence energy was far purer and more refined than that of his peers. The high temperature here left him unfazed; he didn't even summon a qi shield. Lin Xuan's body had been tempered through countless trials, making it as resilient as that of a妖族. This environment posed no challenge to him.

The expression on his face remained calm despite the lake of molten lava. Even if the temperature was unusually high and the lava might not be ordinary, what truly surprised Lin Xuan were other things.

Scattered around the edges of the molten lava lake were several array flags and various array tools. There were numerous items in total, indicating that the禁制阵法 set up here was no small matter.

The myriad techniques of cultivation included a vast array of knowledge, with array formation being one of them. While it could be used to repel enemies, it also served as an auxiliary tool for crafting. It's said that mastering many arts is inferior to excelling in one. Lin Xuan had dabbled in array formations when he first entered the cultivation world, but as his cultivation deepened, he gradually abandoned them. This was a wise choice; after all, everyone has limited energy and focus.

The understanding of array formations from his early days no longer served him, so he had no idea what this禁制was for. However, he could guess based on the situation.

His gaze swept over the surroundings, and Lin Xuan made up his mind.

He focused once again on the molten lava lake. Above it, something stood out prominently in the sky.

A treasure!

Its size was roughly that of a house.

Enveloped by a dazzling aura, it floated about ten feet above the surface of the molten lava lake.

At first glance, it appeared to be a circular ring made of fiery red material. However, on one side of this ring, there were exquisite carvings of a bird-like妖兽.

This bird had long feathers and an elegant appearance, resembling a phoenix in seven or eight ways. Yet its body was more slender than that of a phoenix, exuding an air of supreme arrogance, as if it looked down upon the entire world.

"Red Phoenix!"

Lin Xuan's eyes narrowed as he recognized the carved bird-like妖兽 on the ring. Technically speaking, this wasn't a妖族 but a true spirit!

While Red Phoenix was inferior to the phoenix in terms of strength, it was still renowned among true spirits.

Moreover, these carvings weren't ordinary; whether they had any connection with Red Phoenix remained unclear. However, Lin Xuan could tell from their quality that they were extraordinary.

What truly surprised him was a jade bottle floating not far from this ring. His gaze fell upon the bottle, and his expression turned visibly shocked, even his mouth opening wide in surprise. Although he wasn't an inexperienced cultivator, having seen countless treasures, his calm demeanor made it seem like a mountain collapsing before him would have little effect on him. However, there were things that could still shock him.

For instance, Lin Xuan was genuinely stunned at this moment. He almost thought he had misjudged the situation and hurriedly wiped his eyes to confirm what he saw.

At first glance, this jade bottle seemed no different from a regular bottle used for storing pills.

However, its surface emitted a faint greenish glow, not light but tiny符文arranged in patterns.

These greenish符文were so small that they were barely visible as individual grains. Their arrangement gave the impression of a shimmering aura. How could an ordinary bottle emit such intricate symbols?

"Sealing Spirit Jade!" Lin Xuan's voice seemed like a dream, marveling at seeing this legendary treasure here. Sealing Spirit Jade didn't sound particularly extraordinary, but it shouldn't exist in the spirit realm or the demon realm.

Legends said that these magical jade pieces originated from the true immortal realm.

Whether this was true or not, the value of Sealing Spirit Jade was undeniable. However, its purpose wasn't to refine treasures; instead, it was used to seal powerful entities.

For instance, rare and precious spirit herbs and plants to prevent their spiritual energy from leaking...

However, such uses were few because Sealing Spirit Jade itself had immense value.

Preserving spirit herbs would be too extravagant; even the most precious flowers in the Hundred Flowers Immortal's garden might not suffice. Other more valuable items were hard to find in the spirit realm.

Thus, Sealing Spirit Jade was typically used to seal the souls of extremely powerful beings.

By "extremely powerful," it meant beings who had undergone a tribulation beyond the later stages or true spirits from one sect... Even legends spoke of top-tier Sealing Spirit Jades that could seal even the three souls and seven essences of a true immortal.

Lin Xuan didn't know if this was true, but recognizing such jade pieces already demonstrated his extensive knowledge. Whether it was the best among them remained uncertain. But whatever he sealed in here would be significant beyond doubt.

"Phew!" Lin Xuan took a deep breath, expelling the stale air from his lungs. He had come for cloud forging techniques, but now, by sheer luck, he had stumbled upon an extraordinary treasure.

He marveled at his good fortune, but it seemed that this discovery could bring him far more benefits than he initially anticipated.

Cloud forging techniques and other treasures were insignificant compared to the opportunities before him. Lin Xuan's thoughts raced as a hint of tension stirred within him. The treasure in front of him was extraordinary, but clearly, the process of refining it wasn't over yet. Now was not the time to seize it; he needed to be patient and wait.
