99: Human desires are the best nourishment for growth.
A piece of Warm Jade the size of a basketball flew in front of Zhang Sheng, and then a ball of blue flame enveloped it.
Zhang Sheng followed the method recorded in the Artifact Refining technique to perform Quenching and Shaping.
Facing the Flame Manipulation Art at the Perfected State, the Warm Jade instantly melted, gradually expelling the internal Impurities.
Under the guidance of powerful Mental Energy, the melted Warm Jade quickly took shape again,
adjusting its internal structure so that it could accommodate Divine Sense.
Soon, a Space Jade Slip hovered before Zhang Sheng.
It was not the blue color produced in the Secret Realm, but the color of Azure Jade, warm and emitting a faint azure glow.
In terms of quality, it was only Tier 2 Low Grade.
"Skill: Barlin Artifact Refining Technique (Beginner: 1/100)"
"Skill: Refining Blank Cultivation Technique Jade Slips (Beginner: 1/100)"
Next, Zhang Sheng melted the Blank Jade Slip again and performed Quenching and Shaping once more!
This process was repeated continuously,
and the Realms of the two abilities, Barlin Artifact Refining Technique and Refining Blank Cultivation Technique Jade Slips, simultaneously increased.
Until the Barlin Artifact Refining Technique was raised to the Proficient Realm,
it brought a pleasant surprise.
The ability to Refine Blank Cultivation Technique Jade Slips not only reached the Proficient Realm.
Refining it once increased the Realm advancement from one point to three points, and the quality of the refined Jade Slip also rose to Tier 2 Medium Grade.
Zhang Sheng attempted to inject the Divine Sense information of the Mysterious Spider Thought Binding Method into it, but the Jade Slip shattered halfway through the injection.
It seemed that Medium Grade Jade Slips had limited capacity for information and could not hold the complete Mysterious Spider Thought Binding Method.
Perhaps if he simplified it, he could inject the Divine Sense information, but those who learned it later would only grasp the superficial aspects,
virtually losing the possibility of Cultivating this Cultivation Technique to the Transcendent Realm!
If it were just an ordinary Spell, it would be fine,
but if it were a fundamental Qi Refining or Spirit-Connecting Cultivation Technique that determined one's future path, it would certainly harm many people.
Zhang Sheng had no choice but to continue refining Blank Jade Slips, repeating the process of melting and shaping.
The speed of Realm advancement for Refining Blank Cultivation Technique Jade Slips was three times that of the Barlin Artifact Refining Technique,
reaching the Proficient Realm first.
After reaching the Proficient Realm, the speed of refining Blank Jade Slips increased again, feeding back into the Realm advancement of the Barlin Artifact Refining Technique.
Left Foot Stepping on Right Foot, Spiraling Up to Heaven!
Moreover, the process of refining Blank Jade Slips was very simple, making it highly suitable for raising the Realm of the Barlin Artifact Refining Technique.
Zhang Sheng refined for three full days,
the date reached August 24th.
No urgent information was received on the Smart Terminal.
All countries strictly adhered to their promise, wiping out the Secret Realm two days before the 49-day deadline, preventing other countries from interfering.
"Skill: Barlin Artifact Refining Technique (Proficient: 4334/10000)"
"Skill: Refining Blank Cultivation Technique Jade Slips (Transcendent: 1/1000000)"
The first Tier 2 supreme-grade Blank Cultivation Technique Jade Slip was successfully refined.
As his comprehension increased,
Zhang Sheng understood that,
although the subsequent Realm could be raised to the Perfected State, there was no need.
Because Tier 2 supreme-grade was the limit for Jade Slip quality,
even raising this ability to the Perfected State would only further shorten the refining time, which was entirely unnecessary.
"Next, I can start making Cultivation Technique Jade Slips!"
Zhang Sheng refined two hundred Tier 2 supreme-grade Blank Jade Slips in one go.
The Divine Sense containing the information of the Mysterious Spider Thought Binding Method was injected into the Blank Jade Slip.
Warm Jade itself is a natural spiritual Material capable of holding Spiritual Consciousness. Once Divine Sense was injected into it and communication with Zhang Sheng ceased, it quickly became ownerless Divine Sense.
If it were in the outside world,
the Divine Sense information would dissipate immediately without Zhang Sheng's control.
He carefully sensed the quality of the Jade Slip.
Aside from the color, there was no difference compared to those produced in the Secret Realm.
After continuously making more than ten pieces,
the consumed Mental Energy quickly recovered automatically under the self-operation of the Mysterious Spider Thought Binding Method and the Spirit Condensing Art.
The name of the Cultivation Technique was engraved on the surface of every Jade Slip.
In the lower right corner of the Jade Slip, a small character “Sheng” was left, encircled,
serving as Zhang Sheng's unique mark for the Cultivation Technique Jade Slips he created.
Besides the Mysterious Spider Thought Binding Method,
Zhang Sheng also created Jade Slips for the Flame Manipulation Art, the Spirit Condensing Art, and Moon Slash.
He made dozens of each.
The speed of making these Jade Slips was fast and did not take much time.
As for the Qi Refining Cultivation Technique for the Divine Breath Realm, the Primordial Chaos Heavenly Art, Zhang Sheng also wanted to create it.
Unfortunately, this Cultivation Technique was only at the Beginner stage, and the Transcendent Realm was still a long way off.
Zhang Sheng gave one copy of each type of Jade Slip to his parents and handed the rest over to Hou Wu.
Zhang Sheng felt as if he had overlooked something, but couldn't recall what it was, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
Next was refining the star vortex spirit gathering plate.
Refining a Spirit Gathering Formation Plate was much more complex than refining a Jade Slip.
It was divided into two parts: Quenching and Shaping, and Carving Inscriptions, but there was a shortcut.
The Materials needed were only one more item than for the Jade Slip: Refined Iron.
Zhang Sheng also had Dean Hou send someone to deliver them,
along with Jade Slips that Song Xian and the others had just obtained from other Secret Realms.
They hoped Zhang Sheng would use his ability to reveal the contents and names of these Jade Slips.
Helping them was not without benefits.
Any Jade Slips Zhang Sheng did not already possess could be kept by him.
Thus.
Zhang Sheng obtained a new Spell—
the Breath of Frost,
a Tier 2 Ice-element Spell.
As the Refined Iron and Warm Jade slowly melted under the scorching blue flame,
a Blank Formation Plate slowly formed under the control of Mental Energy.
The first step was complete.
Mental Energy began carving the Star Vortex Spirit Gathering Runes onto the surface of the Formation Plate.
As the final rune stroke was completed,
a Tier 2 Low Grade star vortex spirit gathering plate was successfully refined!
Perhaps it was because the Barlin Artifact Refining Technique had reached the Proficient Level,
or perhaps it was due to his powerful Divine Sense.
He succeeded on the very first try.
However, the time taken was not short.
If he continued practicing this way, refining a supreme-grade star vortex spirit gathering plate would likely take an extremely long time.
He decided to continue raising the Barlin Artifact Refining Technique to the Transcendent Realm by Refining Blank Cultivation Technique Jade Slips.
In nearly a day's time,
Zhang Sheng Cultivated the Barlin Artifact Refining Technique to the Transcendent Realm,
obtaining thousands of supreme-grade Blank Jade Slips in the process.
This time,
Zhang Sheng directly created dozens of Cultivation Technique Jade Slips for the Barlin Artifact Refining Technique.
Combined with the previous Flame Manipulation Art and the Cultivation Techniques for enhancing Mental Energy, he would certainly be able to train a batch of Artifact Refiners.
At that time, the shortage of Blue-grade Jade Slips would certainly be effectively alleviated.
This would also lead to another problem.
Everyone has different Realms of mastery over Cultivation Techniques and Spells.
For instance, with the Flame Manipulation Art, some might be in the Proficient Realm, while others are in the Proficient Realm.
The quality of the Flame Manipulation Art Jade Slips produced by the two would differ greatly,
and if others tried to learn from them, the results would only be worse.
"But having something to learn is definitely better than having nothing at all!"
In the era of Mass Cultivation,
any Blue-grade Jade Slip is a treasure to the Ordinary Populace.
Zhang Sheng's Jade Slips were the seeds he sowed,
and the desire of the human heart is the best nutrient!
These seeds would grow wildly across this land!
