"Wind?"

"Strong wind."

This Gu Jinlai.

The spirit of the artifact is also quite clear.

In the simulation, a fierce wind howled.

Instantly, the blades of the wind turbine began to spin rapidly.

As the fan blades rotate, the kinetic energy of the wind is converted into mechanical energy by the wind turbine, which then drives the generator to generate electricity.

This energy was drawn in and injected into the storage battery, which was mainly composed of thunderstone. Soon, the thunder power contained within it reached a considerable scale.

At this frequency, if the energy could be released all at once...

It is enough to kill True Person who has Spirit Refining.

"This is!?"

The spirit's expression immediately turned serious.

"This is the Spirit Artifact I crafted, which I named the Wind Power Generator."

Gu Jinlai smiled and said, "The operation of the Aries Star Palace depends on Lord Tianlongmu's ability to enter and exit the clouds, chase storms, and draw thunder power from the storms. I happen to have some ideas about the use of thunder power, so I created this Spirit Artifact. The function of this Spirit Artifact is to convert the power of the storm into the power of thunder. Although the power is mediocre and cannot compare to the thunder that falls from the sky, we can make up for it with quantity."

He explained, "Find a mountain that is constantly shrouded in strong winds, even storms, and build dozens or hundreds of wind turbines around the mountain. Then lay power lines... no, I mean set up an array to draw all the power of thunder into the Aries constellation. I believe that in this way, the Aries constellation will be able to successfully complete a recharge in no time."

The spirit of the artifact, having heard the stories told Gu Jinlai, quickly envisioned the scene.

Its body was constantly surging with spiritual energy, as if it were simulating that scene.

After a while, it seemed to have gotten the answer it wanted from the simulation results, and for a moment, its gaze toward the Gu Jinlai became noticeably satisfied.

"An amazing Spirit Artifact! This Spirit Artifact can not only generate lightning to kill targets, but more importantly... it borrows the power of heaven and earth."

The spirit said with a smile.

The speaker gave this Spirit Artifact a very high evaluation.

When this scene reached the ears of the nearby Daoist masters, their expressions changed drastically.

"The power of heaven and earth?"

"A Spirit Artifact that can harm enemies by borrowing the power of heaven and earth, just like Celestial Person being... this Spirit Artifact actually has such power!?"

"Transforming the omnipresent storm power of heaven and earth into storable lightning power that can be released when necessary... Isn't this the transformation of the power of heaven and earth? Could it be that the power of this war Spirit Artifact is comparable to the strike of a Celestial Person!?"

"Very likely! The power of thunder! What a vast and violent energy that is!? It is said that when a Saint becomes a True Immortal on Earth, he will be baptized by the tribulation of heaven and earth thunder. If he cannot pass the tribulation, even a Saint as strong as him will be in danger of death! If even a Saint can be killed, it can be seen how terrifying the power of thunder is! And how high will the upper limit be for this Spirit Artifact that can condense the power of thunder Gu Jinlai!"

The celestial masters were all deeply moved.

Especially the few Celestial Masters who were loyal to Dragon Sparrow Manor, their expressions revealed a hint of fear.

Gu Jinlai...

They actually created such a terrifying Spirit Artifact of war!

If Dragon Sparrow Manor does not devise a way to counterbalance this war Spirit Artifact as soon as possible, its situation will inevitably become extremely dangerous.

"I am very satisfied with this Spirit Artifact."

The spirit smiled and gave its affirmation.

"I'm glad you're satisfied."

A slight smile Gu Jinlai.

It was worth it for him to use up a beam of light.

"You can call me Ziyang."

The spirit glanced at Gu Jinlai and announced its name.

This shows that Gu Jinlai's performance this Gu Jinlai has gained its... or rather, its approval.

"This Spirit Artifact is excellent and is sufficient to serve as proof of your passage through the True Dragon Gate. Next, you can choose a reward."

Ziyang said with a smile.

"Good!"

Zhang Yukun, who had come with Gu Jinlai, couldn't help but exclaim "Good!"

"You passed the test so quickly!? You truly live up to your title of Ancient Heavenly Lord!"

"Although the Heavenly Lords face great challenges during their assessments in the Aries Palace, not every Heavenly Lord can successfully obtain the reward."

Si Tianyan, Guan Xingyun, and others also felt somewhat emotional.

At this moment, Zong Heng, standing behind them, suddenly said, "Gentlemen, I remember that when this spirit met the Ancient Heavenly Lord earlier, he said that he had already achieved True Spirit Crystallization... Could the True Spirit Crystallization he mentioned be the one recorded in the ancient texts...?"

Zong Heng's words startled the two Grand Masters.

They had completely overlooked this detail.

What is True Spirit Crystallization?

Zhou, the fortune teller standing to the side, couldn't help but ask a question.

Si Tianyan glanced at him. "After a Heavenly Lord cultivates True Spirit, it can be divided into three small stages. The True Spirit of an ordinary Heavenly Lord belongs to the first stage, which is the condensation of the spirituality that has just escaped from the soul into True Spirit. I won't go into details about this stage. The crystallization of the True Spirit is the second stage. In this stage, the True Spirit needs to be refined and made crystal clear. Due to its special structure, the True Spirit in the crystallization stage becomes extremely stable. The significant characteristic of a stable True Spirit is that it can unleash more powerful soul secret techniques."

"A soul technique with even greater explosive power?"

"Good."

Zong Heng, standing to the side, said, "Because cultivators and Demonic Beasts have physical bodies, their essence, energy, and spirit are integrated into one. Their souls are nurtured by their essence, energy, and spirit. The soul techniques of the Heavenly True Person can at most affect True Persons of Spirit Transformation Spirit Refining. They are helpless against Great Cultivators of the Nascent Soul stage who have cultivated Yin Spirit. However, once the True Spirit of the Heavenly Monarchs crystallizes and can unleash a stronger attack, even the Spirit Transformation Yin Spirit of a Great Cultivator of the Nascent Soul stage may be shattered by their soul techniques."

At this point, he couldn't help but sigh, "Now I finally understand why Gu Tianjun was able to kill two Primordial Spirit True Lord and four Spirit Transformation Grand Cultivators from Longque Manor in one battle back in Lingxiao City. The power of the True Spirit at the Crystallization stage... even the Primordial Spirit of True Lord couldn't ignore it, right?"

Si Tianyan agreed with his statement and nodded, "True Spirit Crystallization is the second stage of a Heavenly Monarch's cultivation. The third stage is when one touches the Spirit Realm. At this stage, the structure and secrets of any Spirit Artifact, spiritual creature, or spiritual medicine will be completely exposed in their eyes..."

He said with some longing, "With the ancient Heavenly Lord's talent in the path of the Celestial Master, he is very likely to step into this realm in the future. This stage is the foundation for becoming a Creator in the future. In a sense, once the Celestial Masters reach this point, they can look forward to that truly great realm that can be called the pinnacle of the Celestial Master..."

Zhou Mingshi and Si Tianyan did not deliberately lower their voices during their conversation, and the other celestial masters nearby also overheard it.

Hearing Gu Jinlai this Heavenly Lord had actually managed to crystallize the True Spirit, and even had a glimmer of hope for becoming the Creator in the future, many Heavenly Masters were eager to try their hand at it.

Although they did not believe that it was possible to take that step in Gu Jinlai, the fact that the Heavenly Emperor had only taken the third step and touched the spirit world brought about all sorts of miraculous events that were already unimaginable.

For cultivators below the Heavenly Monarch level, this realm is almost equivalent to a martial artist before the Spirit Refining realm compared to the Qi Refining realm.

A celestial ruler who has reached the spirit world can use his own perception of the spiritual state of others to provide targeted guidance on visualization and cultivation, thereby enabling them to make rapid progress in their cultivation as a celestial master.

What an amazing advantage this is!

In addition, rumors Gu Jinlai, to remedy the shortcomings of the Celestial Master's method of refining essence into qi...

In no time, many Celestial Masters gathered around Zong Heng, Si Tianyan, Guan Xingyun, and others, inquiring about their personalities from Gu Jinlai and learning about their living conditions in Lingxiao City.

"This wind turbine will allow you to pass this level directly. What item do you want as a reward?"

Ziyang said, "You can describe it yourself, or I can list some treasures that are of great help to the Celestial Masters sect for you to choose from."

"Your Excellency Ziyang, I've heard that every Spirit Artifact prototype has a performance value testing system. Although a score of 100 or above is enough to pass, the higher the score, the richer the rewards. If I pass with this wind turbine, I wonder what kind of score I'll get?"

This Gu Jinlai.

Zi Yang seemed to realize something and looked at him with some surprise. "Although your Spirit Artifact can convert the power of storms into the power of thunder, the efficiency is too slow. Although the Spirit Artifact itself borrows the power of heaven and earth for its own use and directly points to the mysteries of Celestial Person, due to its low efficiency and the fact that it is a support-type Spirit Artifact, I can only give it a performance value of one hundred. Considering that this Spirit Artifact is quite helpful to us, I will add another twenty, that is, one hundred and twenty points."

120 points.

This number is only slightly better than passing.

Although the final treasure you obtain won't be too bad in terms of performance, but...

Gu Jinlai finally said, "I have another Spirit Artifact that I would like to ask Lord Ziyang to help me create and then appraise."

"Um!?"

Zi Yang glanced at Gu Jinlai with some surprise.

What he meant was...

Does this mean we should give up on this result and take the exam again?

"Judging from your expression, you seem to have more confidence in the other Spirit Artifact."

"If Your Excellency Ziyang is willing to help me simulate the forging of this Spirit Artifact, I believe its performance will not disappoint you."

This Gu Jinlai.

"Hehe, I'm also a little curious. This magical Spirit Artifact has a score of 120, which is not bad. Since you are so confident, why not lend you a hand?"

Zi Yang smiled slightly, "Do you plan to refine it here or in a private space?"

"This Spirit Artifact... is quite powerful, so we should conduct the test in a private space."

This Gu Jinlai.

"Can."

Ziyang said, "Private Space Number Three is now open. You may enter directly."

Gu Jinlai nodded slightly and headed towards the private spaces around the main hall used for rest.

This scene, witnessed by Si Tianyan, Guan Xingyun, and the others, naturally left them looking at each other in bewilderment.

After exchanging bewildered glances, they couldn't help but smile wryly.

"Truly worthy of being called the Ancient Heavenly Lord. Others would find it incredibly difficult to pass the test, but the Ancient Heavenly Lord not only passed it but also wanted to obtain a top-tier performance rating in exchange for even better treasures. What kind of confidence is that? There's no comparison between people."

"Compared to Gu Tianjun's confidence, I am more curious about what kind of Spirit Artifact Gu Tianjun intends to forge, and why he is so confident in this Spirit Artifact."
