221: The ultimate Immortal King-level Five Elements Sword, both alchemy and weapon refining are improved!

Waste Realm.

“Wow, Master, is this the place you mentioned where one can achieve Immortal Ascension?”

Deep within the Netherworld Depths, atop a massive palace, Phoenix Woman’s beautiful eyes sparkled as she gazed at the colossal bronze stone gate, towering tens of thousands of feet high, standing in the Void Realm in the distance. Her face was filled with pleasant surprise.

Especially the surges of Immortal Dao Qi emanating from the bronze stone gate, which actually caused her Heavenly Saint Peak cultivation to show signs of further Breakthrough!

“From now on, you all will Cultivate here.”

Lin Yan looked at the joyful expressions on Phoenix Woman and Ling Shuangshuang’s faces, and a smile also appeared on his own face.

Ever since Ling Shuangshuang and the other three successfully Broke Through to Earth Saint, Lin Yan had brought them here.

This place was close to the Gate of Immortal Dao, with the presence of Immortal Dao Qi, which could better help Phoenix Woman and the others improve their Cultivation.

“Master, I can’t hold back anymore. I’m going into seclusion to Breakthrough first! If you enter the Immortal Realm, you must wait for me to come out. We’ll go together.”

Feeling her Cultivation rapidly increasing, Phoenix Woman’s figure flickered, and she found a secluded spot to begin attempting to Breakthrough to True Immortal Realm.

“Brother Lin Yan, then we’ll also go Cultivate and try not to hold you back.”

Ling Shuangshuang and the others looked at the diligent Phoenix Woman, and a fighting spirit ignited within them. They each chose a spot within the palace and began to Cultivate in seclusion.

Although it was called a palace, its interior was actually a small world, sufficient for Ling Shuangshuang and the others to Cultivate in seclusion.

Lin Yan looked at the retreating figures of the few, nodded, and then he looked up at the Gate of Immortal Dao, a glint appearing in his eyes.

“Although this world is enveloped by Immortal Dao Qi, the cultivation limit it can bear is only Quasi-Immortal King.”

Lin Yan knew that if he wanted to Breakthrough to Immortal King or even higher Realms, he absolutely had to go to the Immortal Realm.

“Phoenix Woman’s Breakthrough should still take quite some time, so I’ll just refine some Medicinal Pills and Magic Treasures first.”

With this thought, Lin Yan immediately found a mountaintop, then took out his Pill Furnace and many Saint-Grade and even Immortal Rank Materials, and began to refine them.

In fact, for Lin Yan now, what kind of Medicinal Pill he refined was no longer important. All he wanted was the System’s reward.

[Congratulations to Host, successfully refined a furnace of Saint-Grade Medicinal Pills with Five Dao Marks, receiving a ten-thousand-fold return of ten thousand furnaces of Saint-Grade Medicinal Pills with Five Dao Marks!]

[Congratulations to Host, successfully refined ten thousand furnaces of Saint-Grade Medicinal Pills with Five Dao Marks, obtaining True Immortal Rank Artifact Refining Materials!]

......

[Congratulations to Host, successfully refined a furnace of Immortal Rank Medicinal Pills with Five Dao Marks, receiving a ten-thousand-fold return of ten thousand furnaces of Immortal Rank Medicinal Pills with Five Dao Marks!]

[Congratulations to Host, successfully refined ten thousand furnaces of Immortal Rank Medicinal Pills with Five Dao Marks, obtaining Immortal King Rank Artifact Refining Materials!]

......

Time flew by.

Three days later.

Lin Yan finally used up all the various Medicinal Pill-related Materials he had accumulated during this period.

At this moment, Lin Yan looked at the densely packed rewards of Materials, Cultivation Techniques, and more, emanating various glows within the System space, his face filled with joy.

“Although there was no Cultivation improvement from this Alchemy session, I gained quite a few Immortal Rank Materials for Artifact Refining.”

Lin Yan tallied them carefully. There were over a hundred True Immortal Rank Materials alone, and more than fifty Immortal King Rank Artifact Refining Materials.

What surprised Lin Yan the most was that among the numerous Artifact Refining Materials, there was an extremely striking five-colored dazzling gold, not only entwined with dense Great Dao Power but also tainted with wisps of Chaos Power!

This was clearly a Quasi-Emperor Rank Artifact Refining Material!

“Quasi-Emperor Rank Artifact Refining Material! This means that as long as my Artifact Refining skill reaches the Quasi-Emperor level, I’ll be able to refine Quasi-Emperor Rank supreme treasures!”

Lin Yan was overjoyed. Moreover, through these three days of Alchemy, his gains were not just this; he had also elevated his Alchemy skill to the Immortal King Rank level.

“Not bad. Next up is Artifact Refining.”

Lin Yan looked up in the direction of Phoenix Woman’s seclusion and, upon discovering that she was preparing to undergo her True Immortal Tribulation, directly summoned his Artifact Refining Platform and began Artifact Refining.

Time flew by, and soon five days had passed.

During these five days, Lin Yan not only refined many Heavenly Saint Rank Magic Treasures but also many True Immortal Rank Magic Treasures, and successfully elevated his Artifact Refining skill to the Immortal King Rank level.

“Next, it’s time to upgrade the Five Elements Sword.”

With that, Lin Yan took out his Lifebound Treasure, the Five Elements Sword.

Actually, Lin Yan hadn’t used this Lifebound Treasure much, mainly because its Rank couldn't keep up with the speed of his Cultivation improvement.

Now with so many Materials in hand and preparing to enter the Immortal Realm, it was time to upgrade it.

With this thought, Lin Yan immediately began to act.

After just one day, Lin Yan successfully upgraded his Lifebound Treasure, the Five Elements Sword, to the Heavenly Saint Peak Rank. It only needed Immortal Rank Materials to be promoted to a True Immortal Rank supreme treasure.

“Now for the main event!”

After another five days, dark red thunderclouds suddenly filled the sky, and a Heavenly Thunder containing Great Dao Power struck down, heading straight for the Five Elements Sword, which was emitting a rich immortal glow on Lin Yan’s Artifact Refining Platform.

Boom!

However, Lin Yan slowly looked up at the Heavenly Thunder, which could strike down a True Immortal, and did not make any defensive moves. Instead, he raised the Five Elements Sword in his hand and gently swung it.

Buzz!

In an instant, a Sword Qi that shattered the Void Realm shot directly towards the dark red Heavenly Thunder.

Whoosh!

The next moment, as soon as the dark red Heavenly Thunder came into contact with the Sword Qi, it melted away like snowflakes meeting hot coals.

Moreover, the Sword Qi’s momentum did not decrease. With a speed that pierced through space and time, it directly sliced the vast dark red thunderclouds in half, causing them to dissipate into the world.

“Peak Immortal King Rank supreme treasure! It’s done!”

Looking at the dark red thunderclouds slowly dissipating in the world, a satisfied expression appeared on Lin Yan’s face. A casual swing of the sword had such power; it was hard to imagine what level he could reach when he unleashed its full power.

But Lin Yan did not dare to unleash its full power in this Lower Realm. After all, if he destroyed the Lower Realm, he would be a sinner.

“Next, I will enter the Immortal Realm, and while Breaking Through my Cultivation, I will raise my Artifact Refining skill to the Quasi-Emperor level, thereby upgrading the Five Elements Sword again!”

A sharp glint burst forth from Lin Yan’s eyes.

By then, let alone being infinitely close to a Quasi-Emperor, even if a true Quasi-Emperor descended, he would have the means to contend!
