Refining Innate Gods into Magic Treasures?

Isn't that a bit evil?

Luo Qing, however, paid it no mind. In the Primordial Era, where were all these notions of righteousness and evil?

Everyone was merely pursuing the Great Dao; there was no distinction between good and evil.

Just like before, when Luo Qing captured Innate Gods to Revert to Innate, he felt no guilt whatsoever.

Originally, Luo Qing had captured a total of 6 Innate Gods. Aside from the Earth God Bai Yan, who had already been refined by Luo Qing into the Immortal Artifact White Flame Spirit Pearl to execute his "Hide the Sky and Cross the Sea" scheme.

Luo Qing still had two Earth Gods, two Heavenly Gods, and one True God among his five captives.

Although Luo Qing's current strength was not yet enough to utilize the Eye of the Great Dao to analyze the essence of the Origin of the Great Dao.

He at least possessed decent appraisal and discernment abilities.

In Luo Qing's eyes, the Origin of the Dao contained within Innate Spiritual Treasures was no different from the origin within the bodies of Innate Gods.

If there were any differences to speak of, it would be that the Origin of the Dao within a god's body was more active.

As for the origin within a Spiritual Treasure, it remained motionless unless one actively manipulated it, making it relatively sluggish.

"As long as I can find a way to restrain the activity of the origin within the god's body, it's perfectly feasible to directly treat the Innate God as a material for Artifact Forging!"

After careful research, Luo Qing felt his method was viable.

After all, the Earth God Bai Yan had been entirely refined into an Immortal Artifact, it was just that his origin hadn't been utilized.

What Luo Qing needed to do now was to build upon the White Flame Spirit Pearl, integrating its origin into the Magic Treasure system to serve as its core.

To be cautious, Luo Qing first took out one of the two Earth God captives.

This Earth God belonged to the Earth Element, and its contained Earth Origin was the weakest among the remaining five captives.

He wouldn't feel heartbroken even if it were destroyed.

"Let's begin!"

Luo Qing took a deep breath and began to take out various Earth-attribute materials.

Spiritual Treasures not only possessed powerful Origins of the Dao and formidable Restrictions, but their materials were also top-tier existences in the Primordial Era.

Since Luo Qing didn't have such top-tier spiritual materials on hand, he could only rely on quantity.

Luo Qing extracted the essence from a large pile of Earth-attribute materials, discarding the dross, and finally smelted a mass of Earth essence the size of a human head.

Then, he integrated the Earth essence material into the body of this Earth God.

Treating the Earth God as an Innate Treasure material, he began to forge the god's divine body using his Innate Crimson Fire.

During this process, he couldn't let the Earth God die, otherwise, once its Nascent Soul dissipated, its origin would also scatter.

In the White Flame Spirit Pearl, Bai Yan's Earth God Nascent Soul had been refined by Luo Qing into its Artifact Spirit, only with its consciousness erased.

The principle for refining a Spiritual Treasure now was the same: the entire process had to ensure the god's Nascent Soul survived.

However, there was still a difficult hurdle ahead: the Innate Spiritual Restriction. Luo Qing couldn't engrave it completely.

But after studying four Innate Spiritual Treasures and the top-grade treasured artifact, the Fire Spirit Ring.

Luo Qing hadn't been without significant gains.

He found an intermediate restriction between Innate Spiritual Restrictions and Innate Treasure Restrictions.

Mimicking both Spiritual Restrictions and Treasure Restrictions, he designed a new set of restrictions.

Their strength was roughly equivalent to one-third of an Innate Spiritual Restriction, but they could easily surpass three Innate Treasure Restrictions.

He named it the Acquired Restriction.

On the treasure embryo formed by the Earth God fused with Earth-attribute materials, Luo Qing consecutively engraved nine Acquired Restrictions.

When he attempted to engrave the tenth, he faintly saw the treasure embryo about to crack.

This couldn't help but make Luo Qing frown.

The material of the treasure embryo was a bit too poor to accommodate the tenth Acquired Restriction.

"Alas! The main material is just an Earth God, it truly lacks a bit."

Luo Qing sighed and no longer forced it.

He connected the Acquired Restrictions one by one, fully activating them.

And then, he integrated the god's origin into the nine Acquired Restrictions.

The originally extremely active Earth Origin of the god immediately retaliated fiercely upon being integrated into the restrictions.

It wanted to break free from the suppression of the restrictions, but the power of the nine Acquired Restrictions far surpassed the outburst of the Earth Origin.

After only shaking for a moment, the Earth Origin was completely suppressed and restrained.

But before Luo Qing could rejoice, he saw that of the nine Acquired Restrictions that had integrated the Earth Origin, the top four layers began to collapse and dissipate one by one.

Finally, only five layers of Acquired Spiritual Restrictions remained.

"This... is the origin too weak?"

Luo Qing frowned. The Origin of the Innate Earth God couldn't support nine Acquired Restrictions.

Before Luo Qing could think further, the Origin of Earth and the remaining five Acquired Restrictions entered the final fusion stage.

A low-grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure was born.

A Spiritual Treasure is a Spiritual Treasure. Even an Acquired Spiritual Treasure contains the Origin of the Great Dao.

It could be called a treasure of the Great Dao.

Rosy clouds instantly filled the entire cultivation chamber.

And the moment this Acquired Spiritual Treasure was completely born, its aura dispersed. Above Hundred Gods Mountain, in the sky above the core area.

Mystic Yellow rosy clouds illuminated the nine heavens, and three-colored auspicious clouds filled the sky above half of Hundred Gods Mountain. Illusory phenomena such as five-colored divine deer and colorful phoenixes shone brightly in the sky.

This phenomenon instantly attracted the attention of all the gods on Hundred Gods Mountain.

"This is the aura of a Spiritual Treasure being born! A Spiritual Treasure was born within our Hundred Gods Mountain?"

"No, no! Although the aura is a bit like a Spiritual Treasure, it feels slightly different. Besides, the birth of a Spiritual Treasure wouldn't cause such phenomena."

"In any case, it's definitely a treasure!"

The many gods of Hundred Gods Mountain had never even seen an Acquired Spiritual Treasure, let alone an Innate Spiritual Treasure.

At this moment, with the birth of an Acquired Spiritual Treasure, very few people recognized it.

It was a group of Phoenix Clan spirits residing in Hundred Gods Mountain, who were more knowledgeable. When the phenomenon appeared, they immediately understood what was happening.

"It is indeed the phenomenon of a Spiritual Treasure being born, but it's an Acquired Spiritual Treasure! And judging by the aura and phenomenon, it's just a low-grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure, nothing worth making a fuss about!"

A Mystic God of the Phoenix Clan commented disdainfully in public.

It was just that Hundred Gods Mountain was remote and barren, and the gods lacked knowledge.

In the Phoenix Clan, the phenomena of Acquired Spiritual Treasures being born were common, and they were used to it.

"A low-grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure?"

The gods of Hundred Gods Mountain, having learned the truth, had rather strange expressions at this moment.

They had never seen an Acquired Spiritual Treasure, but they had heard of them.

Hun Xing, the Mountain Lord, was already a Grand Unity Golden Immortal. A low-grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure would have very little effect on him.

Hun Xing Mountain Lord would certainly not forge one himself. Who else could be forging treasures in the core area?

Many gods of Hundred Gods Mountain immediately thought of someone.

"Hun Xing Mountain Lord's fifth disciple, Chi Huo, Chi Lingzi. The most famous Artifact Forging master in Hundred Gods Mountain for the past few thousand years."

"Chi Lingzi can forge Acquired Spiritual Treasures. My heavens! Doesn't this mean..."

Countless gods of Hundred Gods Mountain began to imagine.

There were many Gold Gods in Hundred Gods Mountain, but none of them were known to be able to forge Acquired Spiritual Treasures.

As for Hun Xing Mountain Lord, even if he could forge them, no one would dare to ask the Mountain Lord to forge treasures for them!

But if Chi Lingzi could forge Acquired Spiritual Treasures, wouldn't that mean they could ask him for help in forging Acquired Spiritual Treasures?

At this moment, not only the many Mystic Gods of Hundred Gods Mountain became excited, but even many Gold God elders were moved.

The Golden Immortal elders of Hundred Gods Mountain were still using high-grade or top-grade Innate Treasures!

Innate Spiritual Treasure? Perhaps only Hun Xing Mountain Lord in the entire Hundred Gods Mountain possessed one.

After the phenomenon disappeared, the discussion about Chi Lingzi was immediately pushed to its peak.

"I didn't expect that the small Hundred Gods Mountain would actually produce an Artifact Forging genius who could forge Acquired Spiritual Treasures before reaching the Gold God realm! Such talent is worth considering recruiting."

A Phoenix Clan expert at the peak of the Gold God realm muttered.

This Gold God was responsible for investigating the background of Hundred Gods Mountain and was also tasked with recruiting talents for the Phoenix Clan.

If the Phoenix Clan wanted to dominate the entire Southern Region of the Primordial Era, they would definitely need to absorb geniuses from outside.

An Artifact Forging master who could forge Acquired Spiritual Treasures before reaching the Gold God realm was qualified to be recruited by the Phoenix Clan.

After all, even though the Phoenix Clan had many Fire Gods, not all Grand Unity Golden Immortal Fire Phoenix Clan members could forge Acquired Spiritual Treasures.

Among the many spirits in the Primordial Era, few were proficient in Artifact Forging.
