37: Immortal Artifact

Ten days later, the time to collect the five elements spirit items from the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce arrived.

Zhang Daobai and Lin Luoxue went to the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce together, obtained the five elements spirit items, and replenished some cultivation resources.

After returning to the Small Courtyard, Lin Luoxue couldn't wait to hand over the five elements spirit items to Zhang Daobai.

Zhang Daobai also couldn't help but feel some anticipation about what the Five Elements Spirit Body would be like.

"Right! I forgot one thing!"

Zhang Daobai suddenly thought of something and looked up at Lin Luoxue with a solemn expression.

"What is it?" Lin Luoxue hurriedly asked upon seeing this.

"If you upgrade to the Five Elements Spirit Body now, your current Cultivation Technique won't match your Physique. How should we solve this?" Zhang Daobai pointed out the problem directly.

After upgrading to the Five Elements Spirit Body, Lin Luoxue's spiritual power attributes would be primarily Five Elements, with the lightning attribute as a supplement.

If she continued to Cultivate her current technique, it would easily cause an imbalance in the spiritual power of the Five Elements Spirit Body.

Therefore, while upgrading to the Five Elements Spirit Body, it would be best for Lin Luoxue to switch to a Five Elements Cultivation Technique as well.

"Actually, I've already thought about this problem."

Lin Luoxue's somewhat nervous heart immediately relaxed upon hearing this.

"Oh?" Zhang Daobai looked at her with some surprise.

"I have a very special Cultivation Technique here. It's the exclusive technique for the legendary Spirit Channeling Dao Body, called the 'Spirit Communication Art'."

Spirit Channeling Dao Body?

Zhang Daobai was familiar with this special Physique; it was considered one of the higher-tier special Physiques related to the Five Elements Spirit Body, with a natural affinity for all attributes.

"Although this technique is exclusive to the Spirit Channeling Dao Body, others can actually Cultivate it as well."

"However, the special thing about this technique is that its rank is related to the Aptitude and attributes of one's Spiritual Root."

"The higher the Aptitude and the more attributes the Spiritual Root has, the higher the rank of this technique."

"Based on my current Spiritual Root, if I Cultivate this technique, it would be equivalent to a top grade Yellow-Grade technique."

"But if I upgrade to the Five Elements Spirit Body, combined with my own top grade lightning Spiritual Root, this technique would be equivalent to a High Grade Earth-Grade technique."

As Lin Luoxue spoke, she took out an eight-colored jade talisman from her storage bracelet.

"Wait, where did you get so many Cultivation Techniques?" Zhang Daobai asked curiously upon seeing this.

Lin Luoxue's expression also became a bit strange. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Actually, I'm curious too. I obtained this technique from an enemy."

"Back then, right after I broke through to the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, I went to the mountains for experience. But I had bad luck and ran into a Tier 3 Early Stage Yao Beast that had just broken through."

"Although I eventually killed it with all my might, I was also heavily injured, so I found a cave to temporarily heal."

"Not long after I started healing, a little pervert at the Middle Stage of Qi Refining burst into the cave. Seeing my injuries, he took out a bottle of some Hemostatic Powder and tried to take off my clothes, saying he wanted to bandage my wounds."

At this point, a look of disgust appeared on Lin Luoxue's face.

But she didn't notice that Zhang Daobai's expression across from her was quite strange.

'A young man happens upon a heavily injured Fairy and has no choice but to undress her to apply medicine? Why does this plot sound so familiar?'

Zhang Daobai scratched his head with a strange look, feeling an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

"Even though I was heavily injured and couldn't use spiritual power at the time, I still had a Sword Intent Seal left by Yun Lingxiao on me."

"Once that little pervert got close, I directly activated the Sword Intent and slashed him in half."

"This technique was searched from his body. Not only that, the 'Nine Revolutions Foundation Establishment Method' was also found on him."

Speaking of this, Lin Luoxue changed her tone and murmured curiously, "I'm also curious how a little pervert with a cultivation only at the Middle Stage of Qi Refining could have these techniques."

"Is it possible that he really just wanted to apply medicine to you?" Zhang Daobai asked with a strange expression.

"Impossible! Hemostatic Powder only needs to be sprinkled on the wound. Why would he need to take off my clothes?"

"I'm sure he was planning to take advantage of me!" Lin Luoxue retorted with absolute certainty.

"Uh..."

Hearing this, Zhang Daobai didn't know how to continue.

"Besides these, were there any other strange things on him?" Zhang Daobai thought for a moment and continued to ask.

"Other strange things?"

Lin Luoxue pondered for a moment, her mind quickly recalling something.

"Yes! There was a palm-sized small black tower. It looked tattered and had a crack. I was originally planning to throw it away,"

"but I found that the material of that small black tower was exceptionally hard. Even a Spirit Sword Magic Treasure couldn't leave a white mark on it, so I kept it."

As Lin Luoxue spoke, she began searching through her storage bracelet and soon took out a black nine-story small tower.

Zhang Daobai took the small black tower and looked at it with his Eye of Appraisal. His hand shook instantly in fright, and he almost dropped it.

[Item: Immortal Artifact Tower]

[Detailed Description: An Immortal Artifact refined from a Small World, containing the Law of space. It can travel through space, suppress space, stabilize space... It is currently 70% damaged, and the Artifact Spirit has fallen into a deep sleep.]

[Race: Artifact Spirit]

[Rank: High Grade Immortal Artifact]

[Status: Fallen into a deep sleep due to damage to the main body]

[Treatment Plan: 1. Fuse with a heart of the secret realm to repair part of the main body and wake it up. 2. Fuse with a Grade 5 Spiritual Vein, a World Spirit Stone, and a Space Crystal to repair part of the main body. 3...]

[Evolution Plan: ...]

[Comprehensive Evaluation: Eight Stars, contractable]

An Immortal Artifact!?

Zhang Daobai looked at this appraisal information, unable to believe his eyes.

Zhang Daobai had never even heard of what level of item an Immortal Artifact was, but even with 70% damage, it still had an eight-star comprehensive evaluation. This thing was definitely not simple.

Wait! Immortal Artifact! Immortal Realm!?

Zhang Daobai suddenly thought of something and turned to look at the sky outside the window.

A legend had always circulated in the cultivation world: upon reaching the highest Realm, one could undergo Ascension to the Immortal Realm.

Could this Immortal Artifact have been passed down from the Immortal Realm?

Holding the small black tower, various thoughts flashed through Zhang Daobai's mind.

Lin Luoxue, across from him, was slightly startled to see Zhang Daobai's rapidly changing expression.

Even when Zhang Daobai obtained that Tier 4 Perfection flame flood dragon bone, he hadn't shown such an expression.

From Zhang Daobai's reaction, that small black tower must indeed be an amazing treasure, but Lin Luoxue had no intention of asking for it back.

In her hands, that small black tower was just a slightly harder stone; it was useless to her.

And since Zhang Daobai knew the use of this treasure, it proved he was fated with it.

Besides, compared to this treasure of unknown use, she wanted the Five Elements Spirit Body that Zhang Daobai had promised her even more.
