349: In the late stage of Jindan, repair the spiritual treasure
While Mu Feng was refining the Yaksha Essence, Han Yuyan’s refinement of the Cold Essence was also progressing significantly.
The air around Mu Feng became unusually cold due to the refinement of the Cold Essence.
Even Mu Feng, whose cold resistance was maxed out, felt a bit uncomfortable.
It was clear that this Cold Essence was indeed something special.
No wonder Han Yuyan was so excited when she saw the Cold Essence placed in the jade box.
Turning his head to glance at Han Yuyan, who was still refining the Cold Essence, Mu Feng thought for a moment, then set up a protective barrier around himself.
This was to prevent a sudden cold surge from affecting his normal Cultivation later.
As the dark green light shield lit up, the coldness in his body immediately vanished.
After confirming that the Cold Essence refinement would no longer affect him, Mu Feng took out the third Yaksha Essence from his Storage Ring and began to refine it.
His True Essence had already reached Perfection.
He thought this one should help him Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Late Stage.
The Yaksha Essence entered his abdomen.
Feeling the pure spiritual power rising within him again, Mu Feng quickly absorbed and refined it.
....
An hour later.
"It's done!"
Suddenly, Mu Feng opened his tightly closed eyes, a joyful expression on his face.
After an hour of effort, he had finally Broken Through to the Nascent Soul Late Stage.
Feeling the continuously growing Golden Core and Meridians within his body, Mu Feng's face was filled with happiness.
【System Reminder: Azure Origin Sword Art has been Cultivated to Level 9, and a new skill, Azure Origin Escape, has been learned. Details can be viewed on the personal page.】
"Another new skill learned, not bad, not bad."
"Azure Origin Escape?"
"Is it a movement or escape speed skill?"
Looking at the red prompt that appeared, Mu Feng's eyes lit up.
He had quite a few Divine Abilities, secret techniques, and skills.
However, he had always lacked a movement or escape speed skill.
Especially after seeing the Silver-Winged Yaksha's movement Divine Ability earlier, he was even more envious.
Unexpectedly, it was arranged for him now.
Immediately, Mu Feng impatiently opened his personal page to check it out.

View Azure Origin Escape skill details.
【Azure Origin Escape: Movement skill. After casting, the body can instantly transform into several green figures. The figures can switch places with each other. The stronger the magic power, the more figures can be conjured.】
"Hmm, this skill seems similar to the Silver-Winged Yaksha's skill from before."
After reading the skill information, Mu Feng immediately remembered the phantom Clone that the Silver-Winged Yaksha had used earlier.
It also released multiple figures at once to dodge attacks.
However, Azure Origin Escape seemed to be more Advanced than the Silver-Winged Yaksha's Clone; the Silver-Winged Yaksha's Clone did not have a linkage effect, while Azure Origin Escape's Clone could switch with the main body.
Illusory and real, true and false.
Even if the true body was found, it could evade damage by switching.
Its practicality was much higher than the Silver-Winged Yaksha's phantom Clone.
"Not bad, not bad,"
Mu Feng nodded in satisfaction.
"I wonder about the magic power consumption?"
"Let's try it."
Having learned a new skill, Mu Feng was itching to try it out.
He lightly formed a hand seal, and his body immediately transformed into seven or eight dark green energy bodies.
"Change!"
With a thought, Mu Feng's main body immediately swapped places with a body in another part of the palace.
"It really seems to have something!"
Looking at the main body and Clone that had successfully swapped positions instantly, Mu Feng's face showed a surprised expression.
This skill was too practical.
If used in battle, it could definitely catch the enemy off guard.
Especially by deliberately exposing the main body, making others relax their guard and think they had found his weakness, then suddenly switching positions.
It would definitely make them doubt their lives.
As for magic power consumption, Mu Feng took a look; releasing the Clone did not consume much magic power.
However, when the body switched, the magic power consumption was quite large.
If he continuously cast the transformation, with his current magic power, he would probably deplete his magic power after about twenty to thirty uses.
Mu Feng guessed that it might be because spatial transformation required too much energy.
After casting the transformation once more and feeling the wonderful sensation of his body constantly shifting, Mu Feng dispelled the Clone skill.
This thing consumed too much magic power.
His Golden Core magic power capacity should be about one or two times larger than that of a normal Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivator.
Even he found it a bit strenuous to use.
For ordinary Cultivators, Mu Feng estimated that they would deplete their magic power after at most five or six uses.
"There's still one Silver-Winged Yaksha Essence left; I can't waste it. It's perfect for consolidating my Realm Cultivation."
After playing with the movement skill for a while, Mu Feng took out the last remaining Silver-Winged Yaksha Essence.
He began to absorb and refine it.
After entering the Nascent Soul Late Stage, his refining speed was much faster than before.
In just a few minutes, he had refined the last Silver-Winged Yaksha Essence.
His previously somewhat unstable Realm became solid after he finished absorbing it.
He stood up and stretched his limbs.
Then, Mu Feng took out the Vajra Shield from his Storage Ring, which was refined from the Vajra Sarira of an eminent Buddhist monk.
Originally, Mu Feng had intended to find a quiet place to slowly repair it.
However, after learning that a Nascent Soul Devil Head had appeared nearby, he moved up the date for repairing this Vajra Shield.
Repair it sooner.
This way, even if he encountered that Devil Head after leaving, he would be able to protect himself.
Opening the Workshop, Mu Feng brought up the Vajra Shield's repair page.
【Vajra Shield (Semi-finished product): Transformed Monster Core 1/1, Heart of Transformed Flora 1/1, yun fu gold 1/1】
【System Reminder: The repair Materials for the imitation Spirit Treasure Vajra Shield have been collected? Do you want to proceed with the repair?】
As the Materials were taken out, the red repair prompt appeared before Mu Feng's eyes.
"Repair!"
Mu Feng nodded.
【Please place the Materials into the Workshop in order to successfully repair it.】
The repair of the Vajra Shield was not difficult.
Following the instructions, Mu Feng placed the three Materials into the Workshop one by one.
In a short while, a large amount of five-colored light shone from the Workshop. The previously dormant Vajra Shield, after receiving this five-colored light, became bright and clear.
The Sanskrit characters on it also began to flow, and faint Buddhist chants emanated from it.
This repair speed greatly delighted Mu Feng.
He thought it should be successfully repaired soon.
As expected, no sooner had this thought crossed his mind than the red prompt reappeared before his eyes.
【System Reminder: The imitation Spirit Treasure Vajra Shield has been successfully repaired. It can be used normally after dripping blood to recognize its master.】
"It's done!"
Seeing the words "successfully repaired," Mu Feng could not contain his joy.
【System Reminder: Do you want to refine the imitation Spirit Treasure Vajra Shield? Refining requires dripping blood to recognize its master and injecting Divine Soul.】
"Refine!"
The refining process for an imitation Spirit Treasure was no different from that of a normal Magic Treasure.
Mu Feng was quite familiar with it.
After summoning the Soul-Devouring Bee Cloud Sword to cut his finger, Mu Feng dripped his blood onto the Vajra Shield.
Then, he injected a wisp of his Divine Sense into it.
This would make controlling the Magic Treasure much more convenient.
【System Reminder: The imitation Spirit Treasure Vajra Shield has been successfully refined and can be used normally.】
As the prompt appeared, Mu Feng's Sea of Consciousness gained the Spell to control the Vajra Shield.
With a thought, a thick light shield appeared around his body.
Sanskrit characters flowed on it, accompanied by bursts of Buddhist chants.
It looked very reassuring.
"I wonder how good its defensive capabilities are?"
"Should I try it out?"
"Forget it, the space is too small to fully utilize it."
Originally, Mu Feng wanted to test the power of this imitation Spirit Treasure.
However, after thinking about it, he decided against it.
Firstly, the underground palace was too small to fully utilize the skill.
Secondly, Han Yuyan next to him was still absorbing and refining the Cold Essence, and it seemed to be at a critical moment.
It would not be good to make too much noise.
"Hmm, let's look at its attributes."
When Mu Feng first obtained this Vajra Shield, he had looked at its information.
However, it was not yet repaired at that time, and much of the information was incomplete.
Now that it was successfully repaired, there should be new information available, and he should definitely check it out.
Thinking this, Mu Feng clicked on the attribute page of the imitation Spirit Treasure Vajra Shield.
【Name: Vajra Shield】
【Rank: Imitation Spirit Treasure】
【Description: Refined by an ancient Cultivator using the Sarira of an eminent monk.】
【Effect: A defensive imitation Spirit Treasure. After casting, it can release a Sarira Shield to protect the body, and it has a restraining effect on demons and evil spirits.】
【Additional: Demon Purification (Reduces an additional thirty percent of damage from Spells and Magic Treasures of demons and evil spirits.)】
"Indeed, a new additional attribute has been added."
"Demon Purification?"
"Reduces an additional thirty percent of damage from Spells and Magic Treasures of demons and evil spirits!"
"Holy cow, that's impressive!"
This Vajra Shield truly lived up to its name as a Buddhist Spirit Treasure.
In addition to its normal defensive functions, it could also provide extra damage reduction against attacks from demons and evil spirits.
With this, Mu Feng no longer had to worry about encountering that Devil Head.
After all, this Vajra Shield was not to be trifled with.
Closing the Vajra Shield's attribute page, Mu Feng contentedly stored it within his body.
This way, when danger arose, the Vajra Shield would automatically materialize to help him resist attacks.
As Mu Feng put away the Vajra Shield, Han Yuyan's refinement of the Cold Essence was also coming to an end.
Seeing the cold currents emanating from her body gradually diminish, it seemed that she was not far from successful refinement.
While Han Yuyan was still refining, Mu Feng focused his attention and began to investigate her information.
【Name: Han Yuyan】
【Current Area: 187】
【Realm: Dan Formation】
【Spiritual Root: Ice (Variant Spiritual Root)】
【Cultivation Technique】: Five Elements Skill, Maiden of Profound Ice Art
【Skills】: Ice Spike, Ice Shield, Extreme Cold Storm, Light Body Technique, Ice Prison, Heavenly Waterfall.
【Magical Artifact】: Profound Ice Escape Light Needle, Profound Ice Robe, Glazed Lamp.
【Magic Treasure】: Glazed Profound Ice Hammer, Blue Light Shield.
【Divine Abilities Secret Techniques】: Ice Chain, Absolute Zero, Five-Colored Ice Flame (newly comprehended).
【Spiritual Insect】: Ice Snow Silkworm
.....
"She has quite a lot of skills."
"She even has Spiritual Insects. As expected, she has some hidden means."
"Five-Colored Ice Flame? A newly comprehended Divine Ability? Is it because she refined the Cold Essence?"
Han Yuyan's information status had not changed much since Mu Feng last investigated her.
Especially those Magical Artifacts, they were all still present.
Furthermore, what surprised Mu Feng was that Han Yuyan actually had Spiritual Insect means hidden on her.
However, it was also possible that the Spiritual Insects' Rank was too low, so she did not release them because they would not be able to harm the Silver-Winged Yaksha.
After all, Spiritual Insects have a long cultivation cycle, and it is very difficult for them to become very powerful quickly.
Even he, with all his Opportunities, his Flying Purple Patterned Scorpion had only just evolved.
He figured her Ice Snow Silkworm should not be as strong.
"I wonder if I can check the Spiritual Insect's information?"
"Let's try!"
With curiosity, Mu Feng focused his attention again, investigating the other party's Spiritual Insect information.
【Name: Ice Snow Silkworm】
【Realm: Foundation Establishment Early Stage】
【Quantity: 12】
【Description: Ranked 102nd on the list of rare insects. It feeds on ice and the cold Qi it spits out is very beneficial to ice-attributed Cultivation Technique Cultivators.】
【Skills】: Blizzard, Ice Silk.
....
"As expected, it's because the Realm is too low."
"I didn't expect the number to be quite large, twelve."
After reading the Ice Snow Silkworm's information, Mu Feng nodded.
If it was only Foundation Establishment Early Stage, then releasing it would indeed not have any effect on the Silver-Winged Yaksha.
Moreover, these Spiritual Insects seemed to be used by her to assist in Cultivation Technique Cultivation.
He figured she was reluctant to let them get hurt.
Closing the Ice Snow Silkworm information, Mu Feng curiously clicked on the Five-Colored Ice Flame he had seen earlier.
He wanted to see how powerful this skill, learned after absorbing the Cold Essence, was.
【Five-Colored Ice Flame: Ice-attributed flame. A skill learned after absorbing the ice-attributed supreme treasure, Cold Essence. When released, it can freeze enemies within range. Its power is extremely strong; even if the enemy is one or two Realms higher, they will be unable to break free once frozen.】
"Ice-attributed flame?"
"That's interesting!"
"According to the description, its power seems quite immense, even capable of fighting above its Rank."
"It truly lives up to its name as an ice-attributed heaven and earth supreme treasure."
"She really hit the jackpot this time."
After reading the information on the Five-Colored Ice Flame, Mu Feng could not help but praise it.
This thing seemed somewhat similar to his sword formation.
Both were capable of fighting above their Rank.
Once frozen, even if one's Realm was one or two Ranks higher, one would be unable to escape.
Han Yuyan was currently at the Dan Formation.
If it was one or two minor Realms higher, did that mean even a Nascent Soul could not escape?
Looking at it that way, it really was quite impressive.
