Even for the Cultivation World, a hundred thousand years was an extremely long time. Many sects could not even last a hundred thousand years from their founding to their downfall.
So purely in terms of time, warm nurturing a Spirit Treasure while waiting for it to recover was merely a theoretical possibility.
Unless it was an extraordinarily, extraordinarily powerful Great Sect, and one held real authority within it, ordinary people would not dare set their sights on it.
—If you dared to nurture it, others would dare to steal the fruits of labor. That was simply how the world worked.
What the Artifact Spirit knew was that someone had intended to refine this damaged Spirit Treasure into an Abode.
It was somewhat wasteful, but it was the most cost-effective choice. A Spirit Treasure was certainly precious, but an Abode was no less valuable.
However, the refinement of this Abode had stopped halfway through for various reasons.
The Artifact Spirit did not elaborate on those details. It only emphasized one point. "This thing can break through a Space Barrier!"
"Holy shit..." Yi He and Jiao Daoren were both shocked. "Is that true?"
The Artifact Spirit could not even be bothered to answer them directly. "Two mere Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. It is only natural that you would not know!"
Yi He and Jiao Daoren were actually unable to retort. This fellow's foul mouth had clearly taken after its creator—like master, like creation!
And its creator had been an Out-of-Body Realm Great Expert.
However, the Artifact Spirit paid no attention to their reactions and continued speaking to itself.
"When the Cultivation World opened a passage to this world, quite a few Great Experts contributed their efforts. You know that, right?"
Yi He and Jiao Daoren could only nod. That was indeed true.
