Chapter 737: Chapter 435: Pure Yang Treasure_1
Upon opening the ancient Pure Yang Scroll, Chen Mobai found that it was all written in Classical Chinese, and many sections were filled with trade jargon such as Lead Mercury Fetal Incubation. Yet, with his current comprehension, he only understood about ten percent of it.
Moreover, the cultivation techniques, spells, and magical artifacts were all written haphazardly—the layout was not very user-friendly either.
After flipping through the entire ancient Pure Yang Scroll, Chen Mobai finally extracted all the sections pertaining to magical artifacts.
They were namely the Primordial Yang Sword, Primordial Yang Mirror, Primordial Yang Bell, Primordial Yang Cauldron, Primordial Yang Immortal Robes, and Primordial Yang Treasure Beads.
Among them, what intrigued Chen Mobai the most were the Primordial Yang Treasure Beads.
Perfected in cultivation, this magical treasure could transform into a second Nascent Soul. If sufficient Innate Primordial Yang Purple Qi could be absorbed in the future, it could even evolve into a second Primordial Spirit—equivalent to a clone of the Divinity Transformation Stage.
To refine this treasure, one needs a fire attribute Spiritual Pearl which is rather common. However, this method can only take it up to Rank-4 at best, and it will be unable to transform into the second Primordial Spirit.
To reach the peak, one needs a Spiritual Pearl containing the Innate Dao Rhythm. This will then enable it to absorb the Innate Primordial Yang Purple Qi.
As for Chen Mobai, he undoubtedly wanted to accomplish it all in one step. Unfortunately, such materials were unheard of even in the Eastern Wilderness.
Having gleaned the details on the Primordial Yang Treasure Beads, he then skimmed through the introductions of the other five Pure Yang Treasures, his excitement surging dramatically.
In ancient times, cultivators of Pure Yang Scroll held a mirror in the left hand, a sword in the right, wore the Immortal Robes on their body, kept the Treasure Bead in their mouth, the Golden Bell on top of their head, and suspended the Treasure Cauldron by their feet. This ensemble was renowned as the “Primordial Yang Set”.
A cultivator in possession of the Primordial Yang Set was unquestionably invincible within the same realm. Their equipment was vast, comprehensive, and entirely flawless.
Moreover, this set of magical treasures proved beneficial even during Tribulations—it could effectively counteract both the Heavenly Tribulation and the Heart Demon Tribulation.
However, since the era of the Immortal Gates, very few cultivators of the Pure Yang Scroll could afford such luxuries. Though Yuan Yang, the old ancestor, managed to cultivate the six-piece Primordial Yang Set, only his sword was Rank-5.
This was because the sword was his life-bound magical treasure, hence it could naturally ascend alongside the cultivator’s realm.
Upon reading the details of the Primordial Yang Set, Chen Mobai found himself yearning. He had resources from the Tianhe Realm at his disposal. After reaching higher realms in the future, could he perhaps attempt to assemble one set himself?
But that was a matter for the future. At present, his priority was to determine his life-bound magical artifact.
It required thoughtful consideration, which prompted him to brood over taking the ancient Pure Yang Scroll home to study it more carefully.
“This is a copy. You can borrow it.”
Overseeing the management of the Dao Academy Library was a Foundation Establishment teacher nearing retirement. He glanced at the Pure Yang Scroll and nodded, taking Chen Mobai’s student card to process the loan.
“If you are interested in fire attribute magical artifacts, you can find ‘Encyclopedia of Magical Tools Volume 4’ on the C-7 bookshelf on the third floor. This book, edited by the school principal, cataloged such materials.”
A reason was required for borrowing materials. Chen Mobai mentioned his considerations regarding the Magical Treasure Embryo. The librarian, who was from the Refining Implement Department, offered him a suggestion after hearing his intention.
Chen Mobai thanked him and immediately borrowed that book as well.
‘Encyclopedia of Magical Tools’ was published by the Dance Tool Dao Academy and had a total of nine volumes. The fourth volume was entirely dedicated to fire attribute artifacts.
After browsing through it, Chen Mobai found many tantalizing materials, such as Nine Fire Dragon Shield, Five Fire Seven-Feather Fan, Divine Fire Pillar, Fire Jade Heart Lotus, Purple Flame Golden Lamp, Fire Spirit Mysterious Bead, Beacon Fire Straw Mat, and much more.
After reading the fourth volume of ‘Encyclopedia of Magical Tools’, Chen Mobai reviewed the Primordial Yang Set again.
All of a sudden, he was stricken with indecision.
Normally, he was accustomed to seeking the counsel of his teachers or searching online for answers in the face of difficulties. Now, he was left to make the decision by himself, leaving him absolutely bewildered and unsure.
Standing by the window of his cabin, he gazed out at the surrounding green forest and the luxurious villa atop the hill—filled with fond memories, he took in a deep breath.
Chen Mobai then opened the room’s door and ventured deeper into the forested hill. Amongst the refreshingly crisp air, his thoughts began to clear.
He carefully evaluated his strengths and weaknesses and decided it’d be best to compensate for his shortcomings.
After all, upon graduation, he would undoubtedly focus his attention on the Eastern Wilderness. There, every cultivator was skilled in magical duels. If he had any weaknesses, he would be targeted and easily taken advantage of.
On the offensive front, his Sword Dao was already at its peak.
On the defensive side, he had multiple Rank-2 and Rank-3 magical artifacts. Hence, there were hardly any threats within his realm.
Only in terms of his Divine Sense was he inadequately protected. The Big Tree’s sanctity had been significantly depleted when he repelled the Yinming Messenger’s soul possession outside the Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion. He wasn’t sure if he’d be able to resist another attempt.
There was another consideration as well.
After the Foundation Establishment, breaking into a higher realm would invoke the Heart Demon Tribulation. Chen Mobai wasn’t too confident about himself.
Moreover, the successor of The Divine Machine Mansion had prophesied that his Core Formation would face three tribulations. Although Chen Mobai had proactively prepared for it, intercourse with Meng Huang didn’t guarantee he would have sufficient Divine Sense to break through to the Golden Core Stage. Thus, additional security was necessary.
Hence, he wanted to refine a magical treasure that could suppress Heart Demon and guard the Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion in order to solve this problem once and for all.
After the winnowing, the options had come down to the Primordial Yang Bell from the Primordial Yang Set and the Fire Jade Heart Lotus from the Encyclopedia of Magical Tools.
