Spirit Artifact, Magic Artifact, Dao Artifact, and Immortal Artifact

"These are imitations of the Brahma Heaven Pagoda and the Great Confucian Calligraphy!"

Among the passengers, some with exceptional knowledge recognized the treasures used by Enlightened Zhi Buddhist Son and Wang Bian.

The Buddhist Sect's Mount Sumeru lineage's treasure is called the Brahma Heaven Pagoda. It is said to weigh as much as a small world, incredibly heavy. If smashed with full force, even a Tribulation Stage cultivator would not dare to take it head-on. There are even rumors that it can break through space, allowing the holder to travel through space at will.

The Great Confucian Calligraphy, while not as prestigious as the Brahma Heaven Pagoda, is a genuine Immortal Artifact held by the Confucianism Sect. As long as a word is written on it, such as "Freeze," the calligraphy can immobilize people. For example, "Battle," the calligraphy can transform into a Confucian Dharma Protector to fight. In addition, there are "Speak," "Hurry," "Escape," and so on, offering a great deal of operational flexibility.

Of course, both of these are Immortal Artifacts. The Buddhist Sect and the Confucianism Sect would not allow their juniors to bring them out, only giving them imitations for self-protection.

"Even imitations are very powerful. Even if they are not as good as the real thing, they are still in the realm of Dao Artifacts!"

Everyone was amazed. How precious are Dao Artifacts? Even if they sold everyone on the ship, they couldn't afford the scraps of a Dao Artifact.

The Nine Provinces divide treasures into four levels. The first level is Spirit Artifacts, which basically every Foundation Establishment cultivator can have one. The power is not great, just sharper and more durable than ordinary weapons, without much magical ability.

The second level is Magic Artifacts, which a Nascent Soul cultivator can afford by spending half of their fortune. The power is naturally greater than Spirit Artifacts. They can communicate with the cultivator's mind, be controlled remotely, and can already produce subtle intelligence, helping cultivators automatically defend against enemies, and so on.

The third level is Dao Artifacts. It is very difficult to forge Dao Artifacts, requiring cultivators to have a great understanding of the "Dao." For example, the Great Zhou royal family's Time Dao, Mount Sumeru's Space Dao, Meng Chun's Dream Dao, and so on. Moreover, the materials for carrying the "Dao" are very expensive, and few Spirit Transformation cultivators can afford them. Generally, only wealthy Integration Stage cultivators can take them out.

The fourth level is naturally Immortal Artifacts. No one in the Nine Provinces can forge Immortal Artifacts. The existing Immortal Artifacts, except for the Yin-Yang Heaven Seal, which was refined by the Dao Ancestor before ascending, were all brought to the Nine Provinces from the Immortal Realm by former Immortals. The number is very small, only a few pieces.

And the most famous of the Immortal Artifacts are naturally the Dao Sect's Yin-Yang Heaven Seal, the Buddhist Sect's Brahma Heaven Pagoda, and the Confucianism Sect's Great Confucian Calligraphy.

"This Great Confucian Calligraphy is indeed an imitation, but the Brahma Heaven Pagoda..."

Pure Heart Saintess hesitated, turning her gaze to Jiang Li for an answer.

She also has a Dao Artifact, called the Twelfth Grade Green Lotus, so she knows more about Dao Artifacts. She always felt that the Brahma Heaven Pagoda didn't look like a Dao Artifact.

Jiang Li nodded, also a little puzzled: "You're right, this Brahma Heaven Pagoda is the real Brahma Heaven Pagoda. Mount Sumeru Old Buddha values this new Buddhist Son so much that he dares to let him bring out such a thing?"

In fact, the passengers didn't really understand Immortal Artifacts and Dao Artifacts. They just felt that, considering common sense, the sects would not really let their disciples take out the treasures of the sect, so they believed that Enlightened Zhi Buddhist Son and Wang Bian were holding imitations.

In fact, Wang Bian was indeed holding an imitation, but Enlightened Zhi Buddhist Son was holding the real thing.

It's just that Enlightened Zhi Buddhist Son's realm is not high, and he cannot fully exert the power of the Brahma Heaven Pagoda. However, if he really encounters danger, the Brahma Heaven Pagoda will automatically defend against the enemy and kill the attacker. Even Integration Stage cultivators will die if they encounter it.

"But these two juniors are so reliant on treasures at such a young age, which is not good. Could it be that the two true disciples of their sects can't even defeat a flying wild demon?" Jiang Li was also a little worried about the current Nine Provinces.

"It's not just them, other cultivators are also like this. They always have to sell everything they have to buy a treasure, and use it whenever they encounter an enemy. They can't truly train themselves. Only being strong yourself is true strength."

Pure Heart Saintess stammered in defense: "Because, because treasures are really useful. How can you ask everyone to be like you, putting the great halberd away to gather dust without using it."

"I understand the principle, but... alas..."

Jiang Li wanted to say something, but seeing Pure Heart Saintess's aggrieved look, he didn't continue.

At this time, the Eagle Demon was still being ravaged by the two. It felt that it was sometimes wholeheartedly devoted to Buddhism, and sometimes full of righteousness, and its spirit was about to split.

As Enlightened Zhi Buddhist Son and Wang Bian's voices became louder and more absorbed, they forgot about the surrounding environment and focused on converting or educating the Eagle Demon.

The passengers, attracted by the voices of the two, swayed and gathered into two piles.

One pile was behind Enlightened Zhi Buddhist Son, concentrating on respecting Buddha and chanting scriptures in unison. They felt that their lives were sinful, took out all their money to supply Enlightened Zhi Buddhist Son, and vowed to continue doing good deeds, seeking a good reincarnation in the next life.

The other pile was behind Wang Bian, with a deeper understanding of national sentiments. After returning, they must do their best for the country or sect until they die.

"I remember that the Buddhist Sect and the Confucianism Sect weren't so evil? They even forcibly brainwash people?" Pure Heart Saintess had never seen this situation and felt a little terrified.

"It's just a matter of washing for a while. Once these two stop chanting, the brainwashing will be undone." Jiang Li was knowledgeable and experienced, knowing that this was common in the Buddhist Sect and the Confucianism Sect.

The scriptures of the Buddhist Sect and the Confucianism Sect have a strong brainwashing effect. If one does not have a good grasp of the scriptures and recites them casually, it can easily lead to mass brainwashing.

There was once a high-ranking Buddhist monk who, while walking and chanting scriptures, became immersed in the scriptures and accidentally brainwashed the believers of a Small Town. The high-ranking monk eventually walked on the surface of the East Sea, and the group followed behind, but because they could not swim, they all drowned in the East Sea.

The high-ranking monk knew that he had made a terrible mistake and was determined to go all the way to the dark, entering the Demonic Path.

Mount Sumeru Old Buddha could not bear to take action, so he had to ask Jiang Li to help kill him.

This high-ranking monk was the previous Buddhist Son, the person Qingyu Daoist once had a crush on.

Jiang Li got up and said, "However, we still have to take care of it. The 'Dharma' of these two children has deviated from the orthodox path, and they may enter the Demonic Path."

The Eagle Demon hurriedly shouted, "Hey, hey, hey, are you guys from the Buddhist Sect, the Confucianism Sect, or some kind of cult? How can you forcibly change other people's thoughts like this! Look behind you, look behind you, hey!"

Enlightened Zhi Buddhist Son and Wang Bian had long been secretly competing to see who could convert or enlighten the Eagle Demon first.

Then the Eagle Demon saw one of the two people in the corner get up, quickly walk to Enlightened Zhi Buddhist Son and Wang Bian, and give each of them a chop to the back of the head.

"You two little fools, wake up! You're going down the wrong path. If you continue, you'll enter the Demonic Path!"

Enlightened Zhi Buddhist Son and Wang Bian suddenly woke up, saw the two groups of people behind them, felt ashamed, and quickly dispersed their magic power to restore these people to normal.

"You are..." The two looked at Jiang Li respectfully, thanking him for awakening them.

"Jiang Li."

Enlightened Zhi Buddhist Son and Wang Bian widened their eyes.

The Eagle Demon's eyes were about to pop out. He just had a whim to rob someone, but he encountered not only the Buddhist Son and the Confucianism Sect disciple, but even Human Emperor Jiang?!

Was this good luck or bad luck?
