Eight Trigrams Demon-Refining Banner
It wasn't that Chen Nianzhi was making a fuss; rather, it was because the precious tree before her was simply too astonishing.
The precious tree before us is the legendary Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree, Heaven-and-Earth Spirit Root. Although its grade is only Tier 4 High-Grade, it is still an earth-shattering treasure.
The name Purple Yin Realm comes from the Great Luo Golden Immortal Purple Yin Immortal Lord Purple Yin Immortal Lord, who possesses nine innate Innate Spirit Treasure, namely the Great Cosmos Bottle, the Immortal-Refining Furnace, the Nine-Heavens Sky-Clearing Fan, and other Innate Spirit Treasure.
The Ji Clan's Immortal-Refining Furnace was made by imitating a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Innate Spirit Treasure Immortal-Refining Furnace. Its power ranks among the top five Pure Yang Supreme Treasure in this world, and it can be called a treasure close to immortality.
Legend has it that among the Purple Yin Nine Treasures, the most important is the Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree, which shows how precious it is.
It is said that the Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree is a top-grade Innate Spirit Root, and its eight branches contain the power of the eight great Daos: Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui.
The eight great powers on the Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree gave birth to eight fruits, which are the manifestations of the eight great powers in the mortal world.
When the fruit ripens, it will drop a set of Innate Spirit Treasure, rumored to be powerful enough to split the heavens and the universe and reopen a new world.
The Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree before us is only of the Tier 4 High-Grade, no different from a speck of dust in the vast world compared to the Innate Spirit Root, but it also has a trace of the divinity of the Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree.
Chen Nianzhi could clearly sense that the eight fruits growing on this tree were extremely extraordinary. Once one reached the Tier 5, they would ripen and fall, and could transform into a set of supreme Spirit Treasure.
Moreover, this set of Spirit Treasure inherently contains Dao patterns, and the eight Spirit Treasure share the same origin. Through the refinement of cultivators, they can be forged into a supreme Array Instrument.
With this thought in mind, Chen Nianzhi took a deep breath and said, "Legend has it that the Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree is the carrier of eight Great Daos, comparable to the Seven-Treasure Wondrous Tree and the Nine-Palace Dao Tree, which are Innate Spirit Root."
"Although this one is not quite up to par, once it is cultivated to the Tier 5, we will be able to obtain a set of unparalleled Spirit Treasure that will shake the world."
At this point, he recalled the Eight Trigrams Demon-Refining Banner he had obtained from Nine Rivers True Lord, and said with delight, "Perhaps I can use this to refine a set of Eight Trigrams Demon-Refining Banner."
"The Eight Trigrams Demon-Refining Banner?"
Jiang Linglong's eyes flickered slightly, and a look of surprise appeared on her face a moment later.
The Eight Trigrams Demon-Refining Banner is a top-tier Spirit Treasure -level array flag, composed of eight array flags: Qian (Heaven), Kun (Earth), Zhen (Thunder), Xun (Wind), Kan (Water), Lihuo), Gen (Mountain), and Dui (Lake).
This set of banners can unleash eight kinds of magical powers and Divine Ability, and they can combine to unleash astonishing power.
However, to forge a true set of Eight Trigrams Demon-Refining Banner, one needs to gather eight rare treasures: Qian Heaven Cloud, Zhen Thunderwood Hou Kun Thick Earth, Xun Wind Bamboo, Xun Feng Kan Water Liquid, Li Fire Jade, Gen Mountain Stone, Dui Marsh Gold, and Dui Ze Jin.
It is said that once all eight array flags are gathered, each of them individually possesses the power of Demon-Refining Supreme Treasure. When combined, they can dominate the Nascent Soul realm and become the most outstanding Nascent Soul True Lord.
No matter how many Law Treasure Divine Ability you possess, as long as this set of array flags remains unbroken, I am invincible.
However, this is extremely difficult, because these eight rare treasures are all extremely rare in the world, each of them being Tier 5 heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Even Nascent Soul Late Stage True Lord would find it difficult to collect them all.
Although Chen Nianzhi possessed the method for crafting the Eight Trigrams Demon-Refining Banner, she felt confident that she could not gather all eight spiritual items.
However, the Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree is an amazing fortuitous opportunity. Once the Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree advances and the eight Spirit Treasure -level fruits mature, they can be transformed into eight kinds of primordial essence, which can be directly used to refine the Eight Trigrams Demon-Refining Banner.
With this thought in mind, Jiang Linglong smiled and said, "Using such a supreme spiritual object to refine the Eight Trigrams Demon-Refining Banner Eight Trigrams Demon-Refining Banner will definitely greatly enhance its power, perhaps even more so than we expect."
"That's exactly right."
Chen Nianzhi nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said, "However, the Eight Trigrams Demon-Refining Banner is just a set of array flags. Perhaps I can create a set of natal array flags and give it to my Old Granduncle to use."
"Very well." Jiang Linglong's eyes flickered slightly, then she said calmly, "You're only thinking of your Old Granduncle when there's a little benefit to be had."
Seeing her expression, Chen Nianzhi quickly said, "Activating the array flags is too exhausting, let alone eight of them. Non-Self give up more than three of our Life-bound Spirit Treasure, we simply cannot control these Eight-Trigram Array Flags."
"Moreover, my Old Granduncle is a formation master, and he only has one Life-bound Spirit Treasure, the Golden Light Blazing Fire Sword, making him the most suitable candidate."
"I know, I was just teasing you." Jiang Linglong suddenly chuckled before saying, "My Old Granduncle's seven Tai Bai Star Orb not only have limited potential, but it's also difficult to find suitable materials to upgrade them to Spirit Treasure. They should be discarded."
Chen Nianzhi smiled, admiring the Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree for a moment before saying, "This Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree has been stuck at the Tier 4 High-Grade for a thousand years; I'm afraid it will be difficult to advance further."
"Fortunately, I possess the Hongmeng Purple Qi, so it's no problem for me."
As he spoke, he exhaled three breaths of Hongmeng Purple Qi. After the Hongmeng Purple Qi merged into the Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree, an invisible shackle was quietly opened, and the eight kinds of light on the Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree became even more wondrous.
Seeing that the potential of the Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree had been unlocked, Chen Nianzhi smiled and said, "This Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree has been stuck at the Tier 4 High-Grade for many years. Now that its shackles have been broken, it will probably be able to advance to the Tier 5 within a hundred years."
Jiang Linglong was also slightly pleased, and then said, "To protect this Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree, we need to set up Teleportation Array and a mountain-protecting formation, and arrange for cultivators to guard this place."
"Okay." Chen Nianzhi nodded, released a talisman that flew towards Immortal Apricot Island, and then said, "Let's wait for Old Granduncle and the others to arrive."
"..."
This island is only about three million miles away from Immortal Apricot Island, so the distance is not considered far.
Just seven days later, Chen Changxuan hurriedly brought a group of clansmen over and said to Chen Nianzhi, "Take me to see that Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree."
"Look how excited you are, Old Granduncle."
Chen Nianzhi smiled slightly and led Chen Changxuan to the Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree.
Upon seeing the Eight Trigrams Treasure Tree, Chen Changxuan couldn't help but show immense excitement. After stroking it for a moment with great affection, he shook his head and said, "With my Divine Sense and foundation, if I want to control eight array flags simultaneously, I'm afraid I'll have to give up all my Spirit Treasure."
At this point, Chen Changxuan couldn't help but show a look of heartache, as he possessed quite a few Spirit Treasure.
The Golden Crow Divine Fire Shield, the Flood Dragon Blackgold Cauldron, the Azure-Gold Ancient Goblet, the Golden Light Blazing Fire Sword, and the Coiling Dragon Staff are all priceless Spirit Treasure.
However, once the Eight Trigrams Demon-Refining Banner is successfully refined, this single treasure will likely occupy the vast majority of his mental energy, rendering him unable to operate any other treasures besides the Golden Light Blazing Fire Sword.
This is after the Eight Trigrams Demon-Refining Banner has been cultivated into Life-bound Spirit Treasure. If it were used as an ordinary array flag, it would require the combined efforts of eight Nascent Soul True Lord to activate it.
Seeing the Old Clan Leader's pained expression, Chen Nianzhi smiled and said, "Once you cultivate this treasure, even if it's only cultivated into Lower-Tier Spirit Treasure, it will be enough to give you the strength to barely contend with Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator."
"Compared to that, what does sacrificing a few Spirit Treasure matter?"
