110: Chapter 110 Phoenix Breaks Through! A Seventh-Tier Divine Bird Covers the Sky!
After finishing the infrastructure work, Lin Feng took out the captured blood moon god mirror.
According to the system's boasts, this was a genuine artifact.
Not only was it useful for fighting, but it could also be placed in the temple as a mascot to exponentially accelerate faith harvesting.
“System, how do I reset and recast this thing?” Lin Feng asked in his mind.
“Ding! Artifacts can only be forged by high-order powerhouses. The host can inject divine power to refine and upgrade it!”
“The current blood moon god mirror is blood-related to Xiangliu; the old master's mark can be erased, transforming it into Xiangliu's exclusive Dharma Treasure!”
“How do I do it?”
“Ding! Give the divine mirror to Xiangliu to nurture. At the same time, ten million drops of divine power will be deducted to assist in the recasting. Additionally, two special mineral primers are required: sky-hard stone and tianjin stone!”
...
It didn't sound too difficult.
Lin Feng directly threw the bronze mirror into the sea.
Xiangliu poked its head out and swallowed the mirror in one gulp. This was a Dharma Treasure, so it wasn't afraid of toxic water corrosion at all.
Then, without even blinking, Lin Feng directly transferred ten million divine power as a processing fee.
For the remaining steps, he just needed those two broken stones.
sky-hard stone and tianjin stone were considered niche high-level construction materials; they definitely couldn't be bought at ordinary street shops.
However, there would definitely be stock in the Tang Family Chamber of Commerce.
Having the world's number one financial group backing him made things easy.
Whatever materials were missing, a quick word and they would be delivered immediately.
Lin Feng exited the neural link, grabbed his jacket, and headed straight for the trading building where Tang You lived.
Meeting Tang You and explaining his intent, the girl immediately ordered her assistant to retrieve the items from the warehouse.
While waiting for the goods, Tang You chattered away about the big news outside over the past two days.
The Blood Moon Empire had lost two 8th-Order Gods in the void, and they were absolutely furious.
Not only did they post a top-level wanted order for Lin Feng across the entire network, but they also issued a threat: if Lin Feng dared to step even half a pace outside the Great Xia Alliance's defense line, they would ensure he died without a whole corpse.
They even went to pressure the military, demanding that Great Xia hand over the murderer.
The result was predictable.
The high-level officials of Great Xia didn't hand anyone over; instead, Hawkish bigshots like General Yan Xiao and Secretary-General Wu Zhengde probably laughed until their stomachs hurt behind closed doors.
Having lost two 8th-Order enemies, they were more than happy; how could they possibly hand over their own peerless genius?
The high-level leadership played a few rounds of diplomatic Tai Chi, and the matter was simply brushed aside.
Besides the international situation, the Tang Family's business was also advancing by leaps and bounds.
After annexing all the territory of its rivals, Tang Family Trading had now become the undisputed wealthiest entity in the entire alliance.
The only shortcoming was that they didn't have a Tier 7 powerhouse presiding over the family.
However, Tang Tianchen was thick-skinned enough; wherever he went, he swindled others under the banner of being Lin Feng's prospective father-in-law, scaring off all the financial magnates who were planning small moves.
Even Tang You herself was very successful; supported by a massive amount of resources, she successfully advanced to a Tier 4 Deity!
The batch of Sprite Dragons in her hands had even been fed up to the level of Tier 5 Dragon Emperors.
Of course, the information that interested Lin Feng the most came later.
Tang You mysteriously revealed that at the beginning of next month, Starry Sky University would host a decennial international exchange examination.
At that time, the top prodigies from the Great Xia Alliance, the Blood Moon Empire, the White Eagle Federation, and the Mad Bear Empire in the north would gather in the Imperial Capital for a 'very friendly' exhibition match.
To put it bluntly, it was the four major camps pulling out their young generation's figureheads to flex their muscles in public and show off.
Lin Feng originally didn't want to waste a single second on such meaningless posturing.
But!
Tang You mentioned that the championship prize for this international exam was an extremely high-purity 8th-Order Source Core!
Upon hearing '8th-Order Source', Lin Feng instantly perked up, and even his back straightened.
Ascending to Tier 7 required Tier 7 stones.
To advance to an 8th-Order God in the future, one must collect five 8th-Order basic Source Cores!
He was currently desperately lacking this stuff!
There was still a month before the start, which was plenty of time.
Lin Feng was definitely going to get involved in this international league.
After finishing two cups of coffee, the warehouse manager, covered in sweat, delivered the sky-hard stone and tianjin stone.
Having obtained the materials, Lin Feng decisively bid farewell and went home.
Just as he stepped into the house, a wonderful notification sound rang in his mind.
The Phoenix's advancement had concluded successfully!
Everything was ready; it was time to start forging the artifact immediately!
...
After enduring a long transformation of two days and two nights.
The Phoenix finally completed its breakthrough.
In the high skies of the Chaos Plane, a divine bird of a size that blotted out the sun spread its wings and soared, with a sky full of fire rain falling like waterfalls.
After stepping over the threshold of Tier 7, the Phoenix's physique was a full size larger than before, and the pressure it exuded was more than ten times stronger.
“Ding! The Phoenix has successfully entered the Tier 7 sequence! All attributes and exclusive divine skills have been significantly strengthened!”
“Ding! The host's Divine Privilege [Nirvana Rebirth] has automatically upgraded to Tier 5!”
...
Listening to the electronic voice in his ear, Lin Feng was very satisfied.
With the privilege upgraded to Tier 5, the number of people resurrected at once had multiplied several times, and the resurrection channel time was also significantly shortened.
Of course, the cost of burning money was an astronomical figure.
But this skill was basically unused normally.
The six Great Divine Beasts were treated like treasures; he simply couldn't bear to let them fall into a death trap.
As for the low-level cannon fodder, if they died in battle, they died; he could fill their ranks at any time anyway.
The current resurrection mechanism had a hard condition: there must be a complete corpse.
But in a cruel meat grinder like the Chaos Territory, monsters would directly swallow their opponents to digest them after a fight.
By the time Lin Feng wanted to resurrect someone, only a pile of excrement would be left on the ground.
How the hell was he supposed to resurrect that?
Fortunately, once the skill reached the max level, it could ignore the corpse restriction and directly reshape the physical body out of thin air.
...
Besides the Phoenix's breakthrough, Lin Feng also discovered a surprise while patrolling his territory.
After he had previously dropped several top-quality spirit veins around the human towns, these civilians, by frantically absorbing the spiritual energy, had managed to give rise to a large number of Tier 1 cultivators!
According to the realm divisions in cultivation novels, this was at least equivalent to the Foundation Establishment stage.
There were even a few Tier 2 experts with extraordinary talent popping up in the crowd.
The development momentum was very rapid.
After all, Lin Feng was also human in his past life; watching these fellow humans pioneer the land gave him a sense of kinship.
As their strength expanded, human ambition grew along with it.
They began to expand outward, actively forming groups to hunt the surrounding alien races.
Lin Feng personally witnessed a hundred-man suppression team composed of Tier 1 cultivators recklessly going to provoke a Centaur tribe.
In that Centaur camp, a Tier 4 Centaur Great Chieftain was presiding!
The result was without suspense; these human cultivators were crushed into meat paste by a single charge.
The Centaur army even followed the trail back and completely razed this human outpost.
Lin Feng sat high in the clouds, acting as a spectator the whole time, and did not intervene at all.
The iron law of the Chaos Plane was the survival of the fittest.
As the high-and-mighty Creator, he must never act as a nanny.
Allowing species to compete freely and grow wildly was the right way.
The potential of humans was right here; once they produced a few high-level cultivation powerhouses in the future, they would naturally have the ability to seek revenge against the Centaurs.
