Acquired Spiritual Treasures weren't just desired by Golden Immortals; even Mystic Immortals and True Immortals longed to obtain one!
As soon as the news from Fire Weapon Mountain spread, cultivators within hundreds of thousands of miles were enticed.
It wasn't like they were being asked to take risks, just to search for disciples of the Innate Fire God.
Whether by force, deception, or enticement, even Earth Immortals and Heavenly Immortals might find a way to bring a disciple to Fire Weapon Mountain!
Luo Qing's strategy of using Acquired Spiritual Treasures as bait was indeed very effective.
In just a short hundred years, Fire Weapon Mountain had gained fifty new Innate Fire God disciples.
More than halfway there!
As for the Acquired Spiritual Treasures given out as rewards, they were not worth mentioning to Luo Qing.
The Spiritual Treasures he rewarded were not meticulously crafted by him; calling them crude wouldn't be an exaggeration.
Yet, even so, it was enough to make the Immortals go wild.
Fifty Acquired Spiritual Treasures made quite a few Immortals and Gods so jealous they were seeing red.
"An Earth Immortal next door really struck it rich. He tricked one Earth Immortal Fire God and received a Spiritual Treasure as a reward!"
"No way, we have to go out and explore more. If we get lucky and find an Innate Fire God, we'll hit the jackpot!"
"Right, let's go further, head south. I heard there are more rogue cultivators there."
A group of Mystic Immortals said, their eyes gleaming, and they left the mountain gate, heading south.
Spending real spiritual treasures like money yielded significant results, and Luo Qing was very satisfied.
Next, he just had to wait for Innate Fire Gods to be delivered to his doorstep.
To be honest, accumulating half the required number of Innate Fire Gods in less than ten thousand years was quite unexpected for Luo Qing.
However, this was also one of the reasons Luo Qing chose to settle down on Wind Spirit Mountain.
Wind Spirit Mountain was the current core area of the Western Continent, and the number of Innate Gods gathered here was the densest and most numerous on the entire Western Continent.
If it were elsewhere, it would be absolutely impossible to gather over two hundred Innate Fire Gods so quickly.
"From now on, we only need to slowly exchange and collect Innate Fire Gods using Acquired Spiritual Treasures!"
"On the other hand, the transformation path for the Chi Wang Dharma Form and Chi Wang Divine Body needs to be prepared in advance."
With this thought, Luo Qing temporarily handed over external matters to Luo Yi and Luo Er.
He then entered seclusion, preparing to design the subsequent transformation path.
Legend had it that Pangu Ancestor God was born from the Thirty-Six-Petal Chaos Green Lotus.
He had naturally plucked the Dao Fruit of the Great Dao of Chaos Strength.
Another legend about Pangu Ancestor God was that he possessed eighty-one Innate Positional Dharma Forms.
Each Innate Dharma Form was at least of Primordial Chaos rank, with five core Dharma Forms reaching the Primordial Chaos Limitless rank, which was the Saint rank.
Among them were the Fire Element Emperor Dharma Form of Primordial Chaos rank and the Primordial Yang Emperor Dharma Form of Saint rank.
Luo Qing's goal in the Divine Path was to aim for the two Innate Positions of Fire Element Emperor and Primordial Yang Emperor.
And according to Luo Qing's three-step plan, for this second transformation, he intended to leap into becoming a top-tier Innate God.
The next step for the Chi Wang Dharma Form was the Chi Huang Dharma Form.
Its rank would also be promoted from Chi Wang to Chi Huang, evolving from the early Taiyi rank to the peak Taiyi or early Grand Unity rank.
A leisurely five thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.
Fire Weapon Mountain, White Spirit Mountain, and Gan Lin Mountain formed an alliance, suppressing an area of hundreds of thousands of miles.
Nearly twenty Golden Immortals were gathered.
No one dared to provoke Fire Weapon Mountain.
As for the Taiyi Golden Immortals capable of coveting Fire Weapon Mountain, they were all vying for opportunities in the core area of Wind Spirit Mountain!
They had no time to trouble a small Artifact Forging Mountain.
With its good reputation, the exchange of Acquired Spiritual Treasures for Innate Fire God disciples proceeded smoothly.
To date, Fire Weapon Mountain had gathered over a thousand Innate Fire Gods.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that all the low-level Innate Fire Gods within millions of miles had been scoured by Fire Weapon Mountain.
Among them were nine mid-level Innate Fire Gods.
This was all thanks to Luo Qing accumulating a large number of materials for refining Spiritual Treasures over tens of thousands of years.
Coupled with the fact that refining Acquired Spiritual Treasures was as simple as drinking water.
Otherwise, even if a Taiyi Golden Immortal worked himself to death, he wouldn't be able to refine over a thousand Acquired Spiritual Treasures within ten thousand years.
On this day, within a hidden cave mansion in the back mountain of Fire Weapon Mountain.
Luo Qing looked at the Fire Element origin in the Five Source Spirit Disk, which was about to overflow, his eyes filled with a smile.
It had taken him several hundred years to design the Chi Huang Dharma Form and Divine Body.
After some consideration, he realized that.
If calculated based on the origins of top-tier Innate Gods, five hundred Innate Fire Gods would not be enough.
At least eight hundred would be needed.
Luo Qing gritted his teeth and set the number at a thousand.
Better to have too many than too few.
Now that everything was successfully completed, he could begin the second stage of his transformation plan.
"It's been ten thousand years since I arrived at Wind Spirit Mountain!"
"The chaotic energy in this world has increased by nearly ten percent compared to ten thousand years ago."
Looking down at the bustling Fire Weapon Mountain, Luo Qing frowned and sighed.
Ever since the Fierce Beast Calamity, the chaotic energy in the world had been on a downward trend.
It had only been half a Yuan Hui, yet the chaotic energy was showing signs of resurgence.
In Luo Qing's opinion, this meant that turmoil was about to erupt in the Primordial Era again.
The Eastern, Southern, and Canghai tribes were about to begin their struggle for dominance, not to mention.
Even the Western Continent, the Divine Path, the Immortal Path, and the Mandala Path would inevitably clash.
The already weak Western Continent, if it were to suffer another great upheaval.
Luo Qing wouldn't be surprised why the Western Continent was later known as a barren land.
Luohu's crippling of the Western Continent's ancestral veins was one reason, and these two consecutive major wars were likely another.
Taiyi and Grand Unity Immortals would soon be wiped out; if the Western Continent wasn't barren, where would it be?
"But these are irrelevant to me for now!"
Luo Qing had a premonition that this transformation would take far longer than he imagined.
It wasn't entirely surprising, either. Excluding the four spirit ancestors like Hongjun, Luohu, Qian Kun, and Ancestor Dragon, who had suspicious cheat-like origins as Innate Sacred Beings and top-tier Innate Gods.
Most of the top-tier Innate Gods and Innate Sacred Beings in the Primordial Era were still gestating!
Even if they had consciousness, they couldn't emerge yet.
This illustrated the time required for top-tier Innate Gods and Innate Sacred Beings to gestate.
The batch of gods gestated at the beginning of creation, the stronger their origins, the later they would theoretically emerge.
With all preparations complete, Luo Qing no longer intended to stay at Fire Weapon Mountain.
This mountain was where he collected the origin of fire. Now that the origin was sufficient, the mountain was dispensable.
He summoned all the Golden Immortals from the three mountains and, in front of everyone, passed on the position of mountain lord to a newly promoted Golden Immortal cultivator in the middle stage.
"This seat needs to enter a long period of secluded cultivation. The time of emergence is uncertain. I will have no time to attend to matters within the sect, so you will be in charge from now on."
After leaving these words, Luo Qing didn't care about the reactions of these Golden Immortals.
He took Luo Yi and Luo Er, cleaned up all traces of himself in the cave mansion behind the mountain, and then.
Luo Qing completely disappeared from Wind Spirit Mountain.
Without Luo Qing's suppression, the Mandala on Fire Weapon Mountain naturally ceased to exist.
The Fire Element Artifact Forging Treasure Art faded into an ordinary artifact forging cultivation method.
As for what would happen to Fire Weapon Mountain next, it was no longer Luo Qing's concern.
Whether it prospered or declined and perished, it was all irrelevant to Luo Qing.
After leaving Fire Weapon Mountain, Luo Qing flew for nearly ten million miles before stopping in an ordinary mountain range.
"This place is barren and desolate, with no gods present. It's perfect for my transformation!"
Luo Qing smiled, quite satisfied.
In an instant, he transformed into a spiritual light and descended tens of thousands of feet below the ground.
Leaving behind an ordinary, lusterless stone bead underground, Luo Qing vanished.
Inside the Acquired Spiritual Treasure, the Five-Colored Divine Pearl's small blessed land, Luo Qing glanced at the dying Netherworld Ghost Willow and the Netherworld Profound Tiger divine fetus beneath the tree.
Without external help, they might not be able to emerge even after tens of Yuan Hui.
"I'll begin my second transformation here!"
