171: Innate-level substitute doll

"Haha, the second treasure is even more precious."

Looking at Lin Yi's shocked and yearning expression, the White-Haired Elder Tian Wu smiled faintly.

"This treasure is called the micro will tempering crystal. As the name suggests, it is a supreme treasure used to temper one's will."

"Once you bind it with a drop of blood, it will merge into your body just like the martial emperor gold token."

"However, while the martial emperor gold token merges into your flesh and blood, the micro will tempering crystal merges into your spiritual Sea of Consciousness."

"After merging into the Sea of Consciousness, this micro will tempering crystal will constantly emit bursts of willpower shocks to temper your will."

"Whether you're practicing cultivation, martial arts, or eating and sleeping, this treasure can continuously help you temper your will, causing your willpower strength to climb rapidly!"

"Until one day, when your will reaches the level of a Martial Saint, the effects of this micro will tempering crystal will completely disappear."

"Tempering my will at all times? This micro will tempering crystal is that powerful?"

Hearing this, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel even more excited and overjoyed.

One must know, how important is willpower?

Whether it's enhancing the Divine Soul or "comprehending the Dao," these all require a sufficiently strong will.

But unfortunately, under normal circumstances, willpower is extremely difficult to improve.

Even with a mystic purple rank talent, without any treasures to help, it would probably take at least thirty years to raise one's will from a normal Ninth-Grade Martial Artist level to an Innate level will.

For example, Lin Yi has the Half-Step Brilliant Gold Grade willpower talent "Heart Like Profound Crystal," the mystic purple rank talent potential burst "Ten Thousand Grinds Forge Edge," and even the brilliant gold rank talent "Human World Blade God" to assist in enhancing his will.

With the three stacked, his willpower talent is probably close to a brilliant gold rank Genius, but because he is too young, has experienced too little, and has not had these three talents for long...

So before re-entering the Martial Emperors Relic Palace this time, his willpower strength was only about the Late Stage of the Innate True Essence Realm, far inferior to his strength which ranked in the top three of the Heaven Board.

Over the past two years, although Lin Yi's will has rapidly increased through comprehending and practicing the blade...

By now, his will has only reached the limit of the Xiantian Golden Core Realm, still a bit short of a normal Innate Golden Core Realm Great Grandmaster.

Now, if he has this "micro will tempering crystal," then Lin Yi can burst his three talents to temper his will at all times.

This speed of progress would be much faster than before. Perhaps in a year or two, he could reach the level of Will Manifestation, which would be truly impressive.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel joy in his heart, and then continued to ask the White-Haired Elder Tian Wu:

"Senior Tian Wu, what about the third treasure?"

"The third treasure?"

Speaking of this, Tian Wu's expression couldn't help but become much more solemn, and a hint of reluctance even flashed in his eyes. After a moment of pause, he finally said slowly:

"The third treasure is called the innate grade substitute death doll! Although it's named 'Innate,' it's actually a Saint-Grade treasure, and it's the strongest Saint-Grade treasure in my Martial Emperors Relic Palace, with only one in existence!"

"What! The strongest Saint-Grade treasure?"

Lin Yi couldn't help but be shocked once again.

He didn't know how many Saint-Grade treasures were in the Martial Emperors Relic Palace, but judging from the previous "spirit enlightenment leaf" and the "micro will tempering crystal," there were certainly many Saint-Grade treasures in the Martial Emperors Relic Palace, and each was extremely powerful.

And this so-called innate grade substitute death doll could actually rank first among them. How precious and strong must it be?

Could it be that it can resurrect a Martial Artist after death and reconstruct their body?

Lin Yi was curious and shocked, and then quickly asked the White-Haired Elder Tian Wu this question.

"Reconstruct the body? Resurrect from death?"

Hearing this, the White-Haired Elder Tian Wu was momentarily stunned, then couldn't help but laugh:

"Little guy, you really dare to imagine!"

"Life and death, these are existences in the world that are more terrifying and supreme than the Dao!"

"Since I was born, I have never heard of anyone who could reverse life and death and bring the dead back to life. How could this small innate grade substitute death doll possibly do that?"

"This innate grade substitute death doll can indeed die in your place, but not in the way you imagine by directly resurrecting the dead. Instead, when an Innate level or below Martial Artist faces a fatal danger, it helps him block the enemy's fatal blow and then instantly teleports him spatially to a random area within a radius of ten thousand miles."

"Moreover, this teleportation process is extremely secretive. Even a Martial Saint or the Ancestors of the Three Great Sacred Lands level experts of your Nine Provinces Continent cannot detect it."

"So in the eyes of outsiders, the Martial Artist who was substituted by the doll is truly dead, and they won't pursue him afterward. This naturally equates to helping the owner die once."

"So that's how it is!"

Hearing the White-Haired Elder's explanation, Lin Yi nodded secretly, his heart also filled with excitement.

Although this innate grade substitute death doll wasn't as miraculous as he had previously imagined, being able to save his life from the hands of the Ancestors of the Three Great Sacred Lands was equivalent to "resurrecting from death."

One could only say it was truly worthy of being the most precious Saint-Grade treasure in the Martial Emperors Relic Palace.

"Alright!"

Seeing Lin Yi nod, the White-Haired Elder Tian Wu also smiled:

"Little guy, all three treasures have been given to you. You can put them away now."

"As for the method of using this Substitute Doll, it's also extremely simple. Just bind it with a drop of blood as well."

"Once bound, it will hide within your flesh and blood until you encounter a fatal danger, at which point its power will automatically erupt once. Of course, only once!"

"So, little guy, cherish it well! This is your only life-saving trump card when facing those at the Martial Saint level or above. Once lost, even I cannot give you another."

"After all, treasures like this, under normal circumstances, are not something that geniuses who only pass the Heavenly Pride Assessment and the Xiantian Golden Core Realm assessment are eligible to obtain."

"This time, I also saw that your talent is extraordinary, and even your talent in the Blade Dao exceeds that of my master. That's why I was willing to give this treasure to you."

"I hope that after obtaining this treasure, you can grow up smoothly and try to reach my master's level in the future!"

"Yes! Senior Tian Wu!"

Lin Yi nodded heavily upon hearing this.

Then, he first crushed and swallowed the "spirit enlightenment leaf," and then bound the "innate grade substitute death doll" and the "micro will tempering crystal" with his blood before leaving the Martial Emperors Relic Palace under the gaze of the White-Haired Elder Tian Wu.
