Eternal Life from Talisman Painting
Chapter 456 - 245: Lifebound Treasure
However, it ends here!
Seeing this, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but frown.
"The method for refining the Sun-piercing Sword Array seems to be on the other two pieces of remnant leaves."
If it were before, Lin Chang’an naturally wouldn’t have dared to hope for this legendary divine tree, but the issue was that he didn’t have it before.
Now that he has the entire tree, his thoughts have naturally changed.
What he wants now is not just to refine a lifebound treasure using the Fusang Divine Tree but to refine a complete set.
"With the current Fusang Divine Tree, to refine a magical treasure, it must first be purified, so there’s no rush."
Lin Chang’an’s eyes flickered as he thought that the greater the potential of the lifebound treasure, the better it would be for him.
If there’s something good, who would want something inferior?
After all, isn’t it just a matter of waiting? It’s not like he doesn’t have alternatives right now.
"With my current cultivation, the Tier Three Middle Grade Blood Evil Sword is sufficient. Lifebound treasures concern the future and shouldn’t be rushed."
...
In the underground cave, the Fusang Divine Tree rooted itself in the magma, continually evolving and cleansing the black energy within under Lin Chang’an’s Xuantian Spiritual Energy.
Meanwhile, Lin Chang’an, looking serious, had his lifebound spirit plant’s leaf instantly transform into an avatar.
[Body Beyond Body (Entry Level 3/100)]
This divine technique is different from the Second Nascent Soul in that it can’t leave the body for long yet doesn’t carry the risk of backlash from the Second Nascent Soul.
Because it’s not an independent conscious avatar but one that shares thoughts with the main body.
[Sword Shadow Following Heart Technique (Mastery 103/1000)]
As the avatar executed the divine technique, two sword auras as powerful as Tier Three Lower Grade Treasures appeared.
This made Lin Chang’an’s main body involuntarily smile.
"Indeed, this divine technique from the ancient cultivation technique is incomparable to ordinary divine techniques of today."
In other words, aside from being unable to cultivate, this avatar can still perform the main body’s divine power spells, given it possesses thirty percent of the main body’s mana.
Even talisman painting and alchemy can be performed.
This effectively means he has an extra avatar for tasks like talisman painting and alchemy during normal times.
This is just the auxiliary effect; during battle, he can completely have an additional avatar.
If he were to refine a set-type magical treasure, wouldn’t the main body plus the avatar display even stronger combat power?
This Body Beyond Body divine technique seems tailored for set-type magical treasures.
If used with other different types of treasures, its combat strength wouldn’t match the set-type.
"The Fusang Divine Tree will take at least several decades to purify and meet the conditions for refining set-type treasures."
Watching the black energy dissipate from the Fusang Divine Tree, Lin Chang’an pondered quietly.
Roughly calculating, it actually works out fine.
If it were about refining ordinary treasures, he could always ask someone else, but this set-type, purified Fusang Divine Tree shouldn’t be easily exposed.
"Several decades are enough for me to elevate my artifact refining skills to the Tier Three level."
[Tier One Middle Grade Artifact Refiner (Mastery 121/1000)]
The four major skills of cultivation, Talismans, Array, Elixirs, Artifact Refining, seem to be coming together for him.
"During these decades, it will probably be a chaotic time around the Five Dragons Island Sea Region, so it’s best for me to remain calm and observe the ever-changing situation while cultivating."
Lin Chang’an remained calm and not the least bit impatient.
After all, he just advanced to Core Formation, and the lifebound treasure of a Golden Core cultivator is made from materials collected over a century and painstakingly refined.
Otherwise, a hastily refined lifebound treasure might become a burden later on.
After all, magical treasures also need to be nurtured by the cultivator.
And since he has just entered the Core Formation Stage, he is far from reaching a state of complacency and should continue to cultivate cautiously in a low profile.
