King of Assassins
Chapter 1089 - 707: Unaware of the Passing Years (Part 2)
Tao Jun, being a clever person, knew Gao Xuan had lost interest in chatting, so he immediately stood up to take his leave.
After Tao Jun left, Gao Xuan instructed Ripples to keep watch over the entrance, and he returned to his quiet chamber to enter seclusion.
This trip to the North Sea was quite fruitful, and he needed to carefully organize his findings.
The most important, of course, was the Ice Dragon Seal, this divine artifact was approaching the level of an Earth Artifact. In terms of its inherent quality, it surpassed the Hongyi Sword and the Endless Celestial Dragon Claw. The Five Elements Celestial Net Divine Light was also of high quality but was an incomplete spiritual artifact, still inferior to the Ice Dragon Seal.
The Ice Dragon Seal could be said to be the foundation of the North Sea Dragon Race's legacy. Without this divine artifact, the North Sea Dragon Race, although not extinct, has lost its legitimacy. Without some unique opportunity, this branch of the Dragon Race is certain to decline.
Gao Xuan did not care about the survival of the North Sea Dragon Race; he only cared about the Ice Dragon Seal itself.
The Ice Dragon Seal was crafted using the Dragon Crystal of an Ancient Ice Dragon, and it was evident that the crafting technique was somewhat crude.
However, after millions or even tens of millions of years of continuous sacrificial refining, the original rough traces had long been polished away.
Even a stone, when played with by countless people, would become smooth and glossy.
Moreover, given the immense power of the Dragon Race's elite's divine thoughts, the Ice Dragon Seal had been polished to purity both inside and out, further bolstered by the divine soul power of many Dragon Race elites, making it an extremely special divine artifact.
The Ice Dragon Seal itself lacked spirituality; however, the imprints of the Dragon Race elite overlapped on it were particularly resilient. Without the bloodline power of the North Sea Dragon Race, it was impossible to operate the Ice Dragon Seal.
Gao Xuan could barely manage the Ice Dragon Seal through the remnant soul of Ao Beiyuan. However, this method was too inefficient. It was suitable only for occasional use.
Through the Formless Nine Revolutions inference and analysis, Gao Xuan ultimately concluded that unless he absorbed the bloodline power of the North Sea Dragon Race, he could not genuinely command the Ice Dragon Seal.
Clearly, that was absolutely impossible. The bloodline of the North Sea Dragon Race was not exceptionally powerful, and the Ice Dragon Seal was not an invincible divine artifact that could sweep through the Nine Heavens. It was simply not worth it.
Since he couldn't truly command the Ice Dragon Seal, Gao Xuan could only completely deconstruct the artifact to extract the power within.
After dismantling the Ice Dragon Seal, the most important component was the Ice Dragon Crystal, followed by numerous North Sea Dragon Race divine soul imprints, and finally the rune array on the Ice Dragon Seal itself.
The Ice Dragon Crystal and the divine soul brands left by the North Sea Dragon Race were suitable for the Celestial Dragon Eye.
By absorbing these powers through the Celestial Dragon Eye, although at least fifty percent of the power was lost, it greatly enhanced the grade of the Celestial Dragon Eye.
After all, the Celestial Dragon Eye was originally a Golden Marvel, and through numerous upgrades and refinements by Gao Xuan, its quality had significantly improved. However, its foundation was still too weak. Compared to the North Sea Ice Dragon, it was still one tier lower.
This time, Gao Xuan had slain a total of seven North Sea Dragon Race members. Ao Beiyuan, Ao Feng, and Ao Ying could all be considered top elites. Even though the other four dragons were not very powerful, their bloodline power was pure and strong.
The decomposed Ice Dragon Blood Crystal, along with the powerful divine soul brands of successive North Sea Dragon Kings, and the divine soul power of the flesh of Ao Beiyuan and the six other dragons, were all absorbed by the Celestial Dragon Eye.
Although the Cyan Celestial Realm limited its power, once the Celestial Dragon Eye reached its limit, it could no longer increase its power. However, the immense power of the Dragon Race could continually strengthen the foundation of the Celestial Dragon Eye.
This laid a solid foundation for the Celestial Dragon Eye, greatly broadening the future path.
The upgraded Celestial Dragon Eye truly mastered the divine techniques of the North Sea Dragon Race in controlling Ice Power.
In terms of the understanding and mastery of Ice Law, Gao Xuan dared to claim he was the strongest in the Cyan Celestial Realm, with no other creature being his equal.
The upgraded Celestial Dragon Eye's outer pupil gained a faint, icy blue halo.
The Celestial Dragon Eye, originally a deep and dark center with countless fine golden beams, now with the addition of this subtle icy blue halo, it appeared even more mystical.
Gao Xuan, through self-observation of his divine soul, felt that the result was quite effective. Of course, the most important aspect was the significant increase in actual power.
Although he temporarily had no real opponents, given how vast the Immortal Realm was, he now had the time and conditions to accumulate as much as possible.
The transfer of the Ice Dragon Seal and seven North Sea Dragon Race members fundamentally heightened the grade of the Celestial Dragon Eye, which was a critically important step.
The Ice Law was also an incredibly important law of the Water Element, possessing formidable power. ππ£πππ°πππ§πΌπππ.π°π¨π¦
Through the upgrade of the Celestial Dragon Eye, Gao Xuan truly grasped the Ice Law. Leaving aside other considerations, merely the enhancement of the Ice Soul Sword's power was substantial.
The fundamental aspect of the Hongyi Sword was the Profound Nether Curse Sea, although the Ice Law was actually more important for the Hongyi Sword.
Even without considering the Celestial Dragon Eye, Gao Xuan's personal power made a steady advance forward.
After refining the Ice Dragon Seal, Gao Xuan shifted his gaze to the Celestial Sound Fork.
It must be said, this pair of short forks was also quite remarkable, of very high quality. Not falling far behind the Ice Dragon Seal.
In its normal state, the Celestial Sound Fork was barely a foot long, its entire body was white, lustrous, and crystalline, much like the finest white jade. It appeared quite exquisite.
Supposedly, the Celestial Sound Fork had no intersection with the bloodline power of the North Sea Dragon Race, it was simply due to its immense power that it was listed as one of the three great treasures of the North Sea Dragon Palace.
In Ao Feng's hands, the Celestial Sound Fork did not showcase its true power.
The Celestial Sound Fork could achieve primordial qi resonance in an extremely broad range, where within this range, annihilating a divine soul's body was a piece of cake.
It was also Ao Feng's misfortune to encounter Gao Xuan's Innate Primordial Chaos Dao Body, which was harmonious both inside and out; Ao Feng's control of the Celestial Sound Fork was futile against Gao Xuan.
Gao Xuan quite liked this pair of Celestial Sound Fork, though using it was a bit troublesome, as it required both hands.
Holding a fork in each hand looked almost like dining with utensils, which didn't match his status. Moreover, controlling them could be a hassle.
Gao Xuan used the Formless Nine Revolutions to project an inference and finally decided to refine the Celestial Sound Fork anew.
