Imperial Cultivation

Chapter 1410 - 1406: A Token of Appreciation

There’s no such thing as too many Spiritual Artifacts.

Several Spiritual Artifacts are mostly on Chu Liezhao’s clone.

He also needs a Spiritual Artifact that fits him better.

Currently, he especially needs a Spiritual Artifact specifically targeting the experts of Li Huo Palace.

He turned around, activated the Heaven-Reaching Order, and stepped into the Light Gate appearing on the wall.

The next moment, he appeared inside the Ten Thousand Knowledge Tower.

The Tower has above ground and underground; above is books, underground is Spiritual Artifacts.

By using the Taihao Jade Void Scripture to activate the Heaven-Reaching Order, one can see a Light Gate on the ground of the Tower.

Stepping inside, the next moment, he appeared deep underground.

In the grand hall of over five hundred square meters, the light is soft and bright as if it were daylight.

Super Sense cannot spread out.

Within the Ten Thousand Knowledge Tower, there’s no way to find this underground hall.

The walls of the hall are excavated into rows of small niches, each containing a Spiritual Artifact with its name written below.

There are seventy-two niches, thirty of them are empty, the rest contain Spiritual Artifacts.

"Ten Thousand Life Spirit Pearl"

"Ten Thousand Intentions Spiritual Sword"

"Forget Sorrow Spirit Pot"

"Spirit Annihilation Knife"

"White Dust Mirage Dragon Pearl"

...

Chu Zhiyuan reviewed these Spiritual Artifacts one by one, carefully pondering their marvelous uses.

If it were before entering the Heaven-Reaching Sect, any of these Spiritual Artifacts would be immensely treasured by him.

But after entering the Heaven-Reaching Sect, he’s seen so much that his vision has unconsciously elevated.

With so many Spiritual Artifacts, naturally, comparisons arise; each has its weaknesses, making them less satisfying.

He feels the ones he obtained himself, especially those hard-earned ones, are more fitting.

The ones originally from Heaven-Reaching Sect don’t seem as precious.

He understood these Spiritual Artifacts clearly already and soon arrived in front of a niche, reaching out to take a Jade Palm.

This hand-shaped artifact looks identical to a real hand, with distinct textures, but carved in Jade, glowing with hidden light.

The name on the niche is Powerful Warrior’s Spirit Palm.

The use of this Spiritual Artifact is to enhance the physical body’s strength, turning one into a powerful warrior.

It can increase the power of both palms by a thousand pounds, pure physical strength.

He is fully utilizing his advantage here.

Li Huo God Palm is Supreme Yang and Firm.

The method of restraint often uses softness to overcome firmness.

However, he doesn’t want to use softness against firmness; instead, he wants firmness against firmness, fully manifesting the Taihao Jade Void Scripture’s yang and firmness.

He placed it into the Lao Gong Acupoint, entering Jade Sea and Sky.

In the blink of an eye, he felt the Powerful Warrior’s Spirit Palm has been refined.

In this brief moment, the Powerful Warrior’s Spirit Palm has merged with him, as flexible as if it’s a part of him.

Moreover, he didn’t feel any pressure.

Thus, he went to another niche, taking out a seemingly faint, indistinct round bead.

It immediately appeared in the Jade Sea and Sky of the Lao Gong Acupoint, once again refined by him.

The niche had the words "Instant Shadow Spirit Pearl" written on it.

The marvel of this Instant Shadow Spirit Pearl is not hiding but acceleration.

He closed his eyes, felt it meticulously for a moment, and still didn’t feel any pressure.

He can simultaneously utilize these two Spiritual Artifacts.

Both strength and speed increased, acting directly on his physical body.

With them, it’s already sufficient.

If it still doesn’t work out, he can quickly escape, directly using the Earth Origin Technique to move away.

He left the Ten Thousand Knowledge Tower, returned to the grand hall, where Ning Dongge was already concentrating on cultivation.

He didn’t disturb, sat on the mat, slightly moved his heart and spirit, already concentrating on Zhu Lingyun.

Zhu Lingyun was training in his small courtyard when suddenly he felt light and flew upward.

He suddenly appeared in mid-air.

The disciples of Wanxiang Cliff were practicing when they suddenly noticed something strange and looked up, seeing Zhu Lingyun slowly elevating in the air.

It wasn’t like Qinggong; it seemed more like an invisible rope was pulling him up.

He kept flying up, eventually entering the white clouds.

The distance between Wanxiang Cliff and the white clouds was not far, the process was only a dozen breaths.

He stopped on a cliff formed by white clouds, with the Cloud Stepping Leopard already standing beside him.

The Cloud Stepping Leopard turned to look at him.

He also looked at the Cloud Stepping Leopard.

At this moment, the Cloud Stepping Leopard had already changed its appearance, especially its four hooves, which had turned into White Jade.

He immediately sized it up curiously and reached out to gently touch one of the Cloud Stepping Leopard’s legs.

The touch felt no different from Mutton Fat Jade, as if its four hooves had truly turned into white clouds, not just resembling them.

The heart and spirit of both the leopard and the man were instantly connected.

"Congratulations, Senior!" Zhu Lingyun smiled and said.

"Hmm, I have to thank you." The Cloud Stepping Leopard’s lazy, gentle, and bright voice sounded in his mind.

Zhu Lingyun quickly waved his other hand: "I don’t dare to accept such compliments."

"Come on."

An invisible force lifted him, along with the Cloud Stepping Leopard, towards the cliff.

He only felt his vision suddenly twist; the next moment, he had already entered the grand hall.

The Black Stone Tablet still stood on the Stone Beast, the Giant Tripod still overturned.

The Cloud Stepping Leopard came to the Black Stone Tablet, sizing it up.

Zhu Lingyun glanced at the tablet, then at the overturned Giant Tripod and the ancient books on it.

He sighed softly.

Ultimately, he had not taken out the translation of the ancient books, not disclosed that he understood the Great Wilderness Text.

The Cloud Stepping Leopard had already evolved to a higher level, becoming stronger.

In such a state, what changes does the Cloud Stepping Leopard undergo, is it as wanton as those Spirit Venerables?

If it indeed becomes more wanton, then there’s absolutely no way to pass on the cultivation method to it.

It requires further observation.

He placed his hand on the Stone Beast, channeling spiritual power into it.

The Jade Egg within the Stone Beast absorbed the spiritual power, yet remained still.

He was very curious whether he could activate it.

The Cloud Stepping Leopard turned to look at him, its eyes bright, its voice echoed in his mind: "Would you like me to lend you a hand, achieving Spirit Venerable?"

Zhu Lingyun was taken aback.

The Cloud Stepping Leopard said: "I can cause you to die instantly."

Zhu Lingyun smiled wryly: "Senior, this method is too dangerous."

He knew the breakthrough method the Cloud Stepping Leopard spoke of was death and rebirth.

If one can die and be reborn, one can achieve Spirit Venerable.

If not reborn, naturally one cannot become Spirit Venerable, just truly dies.

But the risks were too high for this method, really unnecessary.

Better to achieve Spirit Venerable gradually by cultivating the Taihao Jade Void Scripture like Chu Zhiyuan.

The Cloud Stepping Leopard said: "If you don’t awaken in an hour, I can revive you."

Zhu Lingyun shook his head.

"Coward, don’t dream of Becoming Spirit Venerable!" The Cloud Stepping Leopard snorted.

"Senior, I feel it’s better to accumulate more, and continue comprehending."

"Just afraid of dying, right?" The Cloud Stepping Leopard said: "Would I harm you?"

Zhu Lingyun shook his head: "If Senior wants to harm me, there’s no need for such trouble."

He immediately said: "Senior, what method would you use to bring me back to life?"

The Cloud Stepping Leopard boasted: "A new Secret Technique I’ve comprehended, can revive within an hour."

"Is there really such a Secret Technique in the world?" Zhu Lingyun marveled.

The Cloud Stepping Leopard said: "My Realm is not high enough yet; otherwise, I could save within an hour!"

Zhu Lingyun said with a smile: "Senior, is there a Command Token, so I can find you immediately?"

"Find me?"

"In the event of losing my life, I notify Senior to come revive me?"

"You’re always thinking of best-case scenarios!" The Cloud Stepping Leopard snorted.

Zhu Lingyun said: "Senior’s speed is incredibly fast, can arrive quickly, thereby reviving me, then Senior wouldn’t owe me anymore."

"...Can only save you once." The Cloud Stepping Leopard said.

Zhu Lingyun quickly nodded: "Once is enough."

A strand of fur flew from the Cloud Stepping Leopard, transforming into a strand of golden fur after leaving its body.

Like violet-gold, dimly glowing, wealthy, and reserved.

Zhu Lingyun reached out to catch it, feeling it hot as a heated wire.

He sensed it carefully and was immediately attuned to the Cloud Stepping Leopard in front of him.

This golden fur and the Cloud Stepping Leopard seemed united.

The Cloud Stepping Leopard said: "Stain it with your blood, I will naturally know, and rush over as soon as possible."

"Okay." Zhu Lingyun cautiously placed it into his bosom, exhaled a long breath.

This is equivalent to an extra chance at life.
