What were heavenly treasures beyond the world?
So-called heavenly treasures beyond the world were, like near-immortal treasures, refined from flawed immortal materials.
Yet there was an enormous difference between the two. Perhaps it lay in the materials, or perhaps in the person who refined the treasure.
Ordinary near-immortal treasures in the Purple Yin Realm had all been refined by senior immortals before their ascension. Those immortals lacked sufficient artifact-refining skill, and the near-immortal treasures they made were far weaker than immortal treasures.
The power of such near-immortal treasures was roughly equivalent to thirty percent of an immortal treasure's strength. When truly unleashed, they were far inferior to immortal treasures.
But Chen Nianzhi's current artifact-refining attainments had already reached the limit of the Ascension Immortal realm.
Even flawed immortal materials could be turned from decay into wonder in his hands.
Take the Great White Geng Metal Sword Fiend. It had originally been no more than a Pure Yang treasure, yet Chen Nianzhi had forcibly fused a hundred portions into one furnace. After repeated tempering, its power had even approached the domain of immortal treasures.
As for ordinary flawed immortal materials, once Chen Nianzhi refined them into treasures, they possessed roughly eighty to ninety percent of an immortal treasure's power.
The might of such supreme treasures far surpassed near-immortal treasures and was already almost indistinguishable from true immortal treasures.
They surpassed near-immortal supreme treasures, yet still fell just short of immortal treasures. Thus, they were called heavenly treasures beyond the world.
Strictly speaking, the Purple Yin Realm also possessed heavenly treasures beyond the world.
For instance, the Celestial Stars and Constellations Grand Formation of the Eastern Sea Cultivation World in the past could wield power close to that of an immortal. It could barely be considered a formation-type heavenly treasure beyond the
