Modifying the Magic Artifact

Ling Chengxin's Spirit Root was discovered by Ling Pengyun in "Lingyun Small City" in his early years, and he was taken on the Dao Path.

In addition, Ling Pengyun also provided him with a lot of resources to help this mortal cultivator when he first entered the Dao Path.

Therefore, he held Ling Pengyun in high esteem.

In the past, Ling Chengxin would always send gifts and greetings during holidays and festivals.

Now that he saw Ling Pengyun had entered the Golden Core realm, he was overjoyed and congratulated Ling Pengyun repeatedly upon meeting him.

Ling Pengyun had always been quite fond of this rather sensible nephew, and upon hearing Ling Chengxin's congratulatory words, his face was also filled with joy.

The two then chatted for a few minutes.

Ling Pengyun then led his family away from the Serpent Dragon Marketplace.

After sending his family Falling Dusk Mountain, Ling Pengyun returned to his Lineage.

He personally gathered the tribesmen from the mountains together.

But these tribespeople in the mountains are completely different from those they were six years ago.

Currently, there are only about ten clansmen in the mountains. Apart from Ling Pengshan, Ling Pengxing, Ling Pengqiu, and Ling Penglin, the rest are the youngest members of the Wan Generation Lineage.

These members of the Wan Generation are all young, the oldest being only about ten years old.

Seeing this, Ling Pengyun sighed helplessly.

The scoundrel who revealed his and Ling Yunhong's departure from the Lineage back then must have been someone of some status in the family, and someone who had lived in the Lineage for a long time.

The older generation of the clan died in the Small Demon Uprising six years ago.

Of the clansmen who lived in the mountains back then, only four survived: Ling Pengshan, Ling Pengqiu, Ling Pengxing, and Ling Penglin.

These scoundrels are most likely to disappear without a trace.

Upon thinking this, Ling Pengyun's expression immediately hardened.

With a wave of his Daoist robe, he conjured a vast expanse of bewitching white mist, enveloping all the dozen or so clansmen in front of him.

Although the Bewitching Soul Technique is a minor Law Technique, its power is not weak when cast by Ling Pengyun, who possesses the Golden Core cultivation level.

Even Ling Pengqiu, who was at the Foundation Establishment Seventh Layer, couldn't hold on for even a moment before losing consciousness.

Ling Pengyun then questioned in detail about the four survivors of the Small Demon Uprising: Ling Pengshan, Ling Pengqiu, Ling Pengxing, and Ling Penglin.

As Ling Pengyun had expected, these four core Lineage members, who were showered with Lineage resources and had no shortage of resources, were all innocent.

This made Ling Pengyun feel a little better. If the scoundrel who leaked the information had been one of these four, Ling Pengyun would probably have been so angry that he would have vomited blood.

Six years ago, those members of the Wan Generation had not yet joined the clan, so they could not reveal any information, and Ling Pengyun did not question them.

He then dispelled the Bewitching Soul Technique.

Everyone then regained consciousness.

Before everyone could react, a powerful killing intent emanated from Ling Pengyun's body, directly pressing down on the dozen or so clansmen in front of him.

The dozen or so clansmen were all quite astonished by this.

Even several eight-year-old children among the human race, whose Spirit Root had just been detected, were so frightened by the thin aura of killing intent that they retreated repeatedly.

The four Foundation Establishment from Ling Pengshan were also somewhat confused about Ling Pengyun's meaning. They wanted to ask, but seeing Ling Pengyun's extremely dark expression, they held back their thoughts.

Then Ling Pengyun said in a deep voice.

"From now on, no information from our clan shall be leaked. If you dare to utter a word of dissent..."

"Or perhaps they have been blinded by some interests and acted as spies for foreign tribes, leaking information about our tribe. If I find them, I will kill them."

"In the future, their entire lineage will also be exterminated."

"Furthermore, this matter should be communicated to the Lineage members who are living elsewhere."

Upon hearing this, everyone present had a significantly different opinion of this elder who was usually a nice, easygoing person.

At the same time, they also realized that Ling Pengyun was serious, and they were all filled with lingering fear, recalling whether they had ever leaked any Lineage matters to outsiders.

The four people from Ling Pengshan, who had reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, also guessed something from the bewitching white mist that Ling Pengyun had just released.

They were victims of that Small Demon Uprising back then, and now that Ling Pengyun had done this, all four of them showed hatred on their faces.

If it weren't for the traitors in their clan who leaked the news, they wouldn't have ended up like this.

Moreover, now that the Lineage has Ling Pengyun, a Golden Core cultivator, with Ling Pengyun support, they have a glimmer of hope to break through to the Golden Core.

But now, it's all gone.

After this incident, Ling Pengshan, Ling Pengqiu, and Ling Penglin, three Foundation Establishment who still had cultivation, personally went down the mountain to tell the clansmen who were running the Lineage's shops outside the village what Ling Pengyun had instructed them to do.

Through the actions of Ling Pengshan and the other two, the clansmen also understood the importance the Lineage.

In just one month, the atmosphere of the entire Ling Clan clan became several times more serious than before.

Ling Pengyun's stern demeanor was deeply etched into the hearts of the youngest members of the Ling Clan, those of the "Ten Thousand Characters" generation.

Falling Dusk Mountain.

That night.

After a long separation, Ling Pengyun and Yan Siyi finally had time alone together and spent the entire night tenderly together.

It wasn't until early morning the next day that Yan Siyi was exhausted and the two of them stopped.

After Ling Pengyun had waited for Yan Siyi to recover, he said to his Daoist partner Yan Siyi with affection.

"Madam, I am now at ease. The ten-pound Explosive Flame Treasure Iron I gave you was of the Third Rank Low Grade and quite sturdy. With your strength alone, I'm afraid it will be difficult to integrate it into your natal Lifebound Magic Item, the Mandarin Duck Fire Cloud Pot, in a short time."

"I'll help you fuse this iron into that Huo Yun cauldron; it'll be faster that way."

Upon hearing this, Yan Siyi's expression brightened slightly, and she immediately took out the ten-pound low-grade Third Rank Low Grade Explosive Flame Treasure Iron and the high-grade Second Rank High Grade Lifebound Magic Item, the Mandarin Duck Fire Cloud Pot.

Ling Pengyun also took out the Second Rank Low Grade "Flame Fire Refining Furnace" from his early years and used the third-grade Azure Water True Fire to heat the furnace.

Once the temperature inside the furnace reached a certain level, Ling Pengyun threw the ten-pound piece of Explosive Flame Treasure Iron into the Refining Furnace.

It also controls the high temperature inside the Refining Furnace, sweeping it over the piece of spirit iron and continuously tempering the impurities within it.

This iron is indeed of a high grade, being Third Rank Low Grade. Even with Ling Pengyun relying on his third-tier natal fire, it took him a full ten days to refine it.

That ten-pound piece of spirit iron also turned into a lump of molten iron.

Ling Pengyun then threw the Mandarin Duck Fire Cloud Pot into the Refining Furnace, controlling the ball of Exploding Flame Spirit Iron to merge into the Mandarin Duck Fire Cloud Pot.

After completing this step, Ling Pengyun spoke to his Daoist partner Yan Siyi, who was standing beside him.

Upon hearing the signal, Yan Siyi immediately took action.

Her eyes narrowed, and she probed her Divine Sense into the Refining Furnace. Then, she used her Divine Sense as Brush to slowly inscribe spiritual runes and restrictions on the Mandarin Duck Fire Cloud Pot.

As Yan Siyi stopped, the spiritual runes and restrictions converged, and the "Mandarin Duck Fire Cloud Pot" flashed with red light.

Its aura, which was spreading outwards, also began to surge, and it was about to enter the Magic Treasure Cone Shape.

If a certain amount of Fire Element spirit iron is incorporated into it in the future, the grade of this furnace can be officially upgraded to the level of Magic Treasure Cone Shape.

"Congratulations, Madam, you are about to acquire a Magic Treasure Cone Shape."

Ling Pengyun offered his congratulations.

"This is all thanks to you, my husband."

After saying this with a smile, Yan Siyi kissed Ling Pengyun on the cheek.

Afterwards, the two spent some time together, and Ling Pengyun went to a quiet room next door to take out two books of Demonic Cultivation Method techniques: "Saint Demon Art" and "Demon Profound Ghost Control Art".

Both of these items were obtained by Ling Pengyun during his journey through the Boundless Sea Region, when he killed the two Devil Cultivator in Wood Origin Marketplace.

The Saint Demon Art was obtained from that Old Devil in the Pseudo-Core Realm, Demon Profound Ghost Control Art was obtained by killing that cold-faced old woman who had reached the Foundation Establishment Completion Realm. Back then, all the valuables on that cold-faced old woman's body were taken by Ling Pengyun.

The Storage Bag on her body were all opened by Ling Pengyun using his Divine Sense to erase the Divine Sense imprints on them during his journey back to the Lineage. The contents of the bags were also obtained by Ling Pengyun.

From the items he obtained from the cold-faced old woman's Storage Bag, Ling Pengyun also learned that this cold-faced old woman, like the Old Devil in the Pseudo-Core Realm, was commissioned by the Saint Demon Sect to lure Righteous Path cultivators into the demonic path in Wood Origin Marketplace.

If the Old Devil at the Pseudo-Core Realm was Preaching Elder sent by the Saint Demon Sect to Wood Origin Marketplace, then the cold-faced old woman at the Foundation Establishment Completion could be considered a capable assistant to that Preaching Elder.

Perhaps that's why, even though the "Demon Profound Ghost Control Art" that Ling Pengyun obtained from that cold-faced old woman was incomplete, he was still able to cultivate it from the Qi Refining Realm to the Foundation Establishment Consummation Realm.

Furthermore, this Cultivation Method, like the Saint Demon Art on the body of that old Old Devil in the Pseudo-Core Realm, records many Demonic Art.

However, the secret techniques above the Demon Profound Ghost Control Art are mostly "ghost control techniques" for cultivators and mortals whose souls have been refined into evil ghosts.

Besides, this Demon Profound Ghost Control Art is also a very good Demonic Cultivation Method, only slightly weaker than the Saint Demon Art.

According to Ling Pengyun's guess, the complete set of this Cultivation Method can at least lead to the Golden Core Consummation Realm.

After taking out the two Demonic Cultivation Method, Ling Pengyun carefully read through the chapters on forging "natal Devil Artifact"Demonic Cultivation Method in them.

The records of the Pseudo-Core Realm Old Devil that Ling Pengyun killed in the Wood Origin Marketplace Boundless Sea Region, the Third Rank Middle Grade magic treasure "Saint Demon Burning Yuan Lamp" obtained from the cold-faced old woman, and the Magic Treasure Cone Shape "Demonic Black Ghost Control Banner" are all included here.

At the same time, Ling Pengyun's thoughts were also racing, carefully considering how to modify the methods for forging natal Devil Artifact recorded in these two Demonic Cultivation Method into Righteous Path Law Artifact.

On his journey back to his Lineage from the Boundless Sea Region Cultivation World, he had been thinking about the matter of modifying the Devil Artifact, and now he had some clues.

In addition, he possessed excellent comprehension and profound knowledge of weapon crafting.

After another month of studying, Ling Pengyun had a general direction for making changes.

Then, Ling Pengyun patted the Storage Bag at his waist and summoned a Black Lamp shrouded in demonic energy and carrying a blazing aura, as well as a long banner with cracks all over its surface.

The Black Lamp was the Third Rank Middle Grade Lifebound Magic Treasure "Saint Demon Burning Yuan Lamp" of the Old Devil in the pseudo- Foundation Establishment Completion Pseudo-Core Realm, while the long banner was the cone-shaped Lifebound Magic Treasure "Demonic Black Ghost Control Banner.

"The Saint Demon Burning Yuan Lamp is of a high grade. I have never used the Azure Sea True Fire to temper Devil Artifact or modified Devil Artifact into a Righteous Path Law Artifact before. It is a bit extravagant to use this item directly for practice."

Ling Pengyun looked at the two Devil Artifact in front of him and muttered to himself.

He placed the "Saint Demon Burning Yuan Lamp" in front of him to his side, then waved his Daoist robe and summoned a third-tier innate "Azure Sea True Fire," which directly swept over the Second Rank High Grade Demonic Black Ghost Control Banner.

Surprisingly, the Azure Sea True Fire, which has an extremely high temperature and is very effective against Devil Artifact, did not directly burn the Demonic Black Ghost Control Long Banner when it burned it.

It merely burns away the demonic energy within this demon banner.

Azure Sea True Fire is also a type of Yang Fire, which is extremely effective against demonic energy.

The demon banner's grade only reached the Magic Treasure Cone Shape.

In just three days, Ling Pengyun used the Azure Sea True Fire to burn away all the demonic energy within the demon banner.

The demon banner had also lost much of its demonic energy, and its aura had weakened somewhat.

However, this demonic banner still exudes an evil aura.

Upon seeing this, Ling Pengyun frowned.

If this item falls into the hands of Devil Cultivator again, as long as the Devil Cultivator nurtures it with demonic energy for a few days, this demonic banner can still be transformed into a Devil Artifact.

Removing the demonic energy from the Devil Artifact is only a temporary solution.

Eliminating demonic energy is one of the effects of the "Third-Order True Fire" that cultivators master after reaching the Golden Core realm.

Once a cultivator reaches the Golden Core stage, everything will undergo a tremendous transformation.

Within its natal fire lies a trace of the ability to incinerate all impurities.

If the demon banner is tempered by this natal fire for several years, it can be refined into a Righteous Path Law Artifact, and cultivators can use their spiritual power to activate the demon banner in battle.

However, this demon banner has some special abilities, requiring the souls of mortals or cultivators to be refined into Mountain Moving Evil Ghost.

Moreover, the Mountain Moving Evil Ghost within this banner were all destroyed by Ling Pengyun during the battle.

To restore the power of this banner, countless human souls would be needed.

If Ling Pengyun dares to do this, he will be no different from Devil Cultivator and will become an enemy of Righteous Path cultivators.

The Ling Clan behind him will also be harmed by him.

Ling Pengyun, however, valued the Mountain Moving Evil Ghost that this banner could summon.

This is also why Ling Pengyun spent so much time comprehending and refining the demonic runes and restrictions of this demonic banner, wanting to modify it into a Righteous Path Law Artifact.

To truly transform this top-tier Middle Vehicle demonic banner into a Righteous Path Law Artifact, its core must be modified before it can be considered Righteous Path.

Ling Pengyun looked at the long banner before him, now devoid of its Devil Artifact, took a deep breath, and a solemn expression gradually appeared on his face.
