Just Refining a Spiritual Treasure, Yet He Comprehended Another Great Dao

In the Primordial Wilderness, years went unrecorded; cultivation knew no passage of time.

In the blink of an eye, seventy thousand years had passed since Lin Changsheng assumed Qi Mo's identity within the Ink Qilin Clan.

Though seventy thousand years seemed like a long time, it was really no more than a single period of secluded cultivation.

Yet during this time, the Ink Qilin Clan had become rather lively.

Every elder had been working hard to nurture their descendants.

Some had even spared no expense, consuming a million years of cultivation to empower their descendants.

All because of the approaching Ten-Thousand-Year Pact.

A single Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure was enough to make them pay any price.

What was more, the Fire Qilin Clan had somehow learned that Qi Mo's foundation was damaged and his cultivation had fallen to the early stage of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm. They were preparing to visit the Ink Qilin Clan to discuss breaking off the engagement.

It could be said that because of Qi Mo, the relationship between the two clans had become precarious.

As for "Qi Mo," the person at the heart of it all, he had just emerged from his alchemy.

"The spiritual materials provided by the Ink Qilin Clan have all been refined."

"One hundred and thirty-seven pills were successfully formed."

Lin Changsheng put away the Purple Furnace. Though his face showed some fatigue, he could not hide the joy in his heart.

This was the result of seventy thousand uninterrupted years of pill refining.

During this time, some divine senses had attempted to spy on him.

But upon discovering the formation, they had all retreated.

After all, they did not wish to completely fall out with him just yet.

"Next, it's time to give these old fellows a surprise."

"I really want to see their expressions when they find out my cultivation has improved."

Lin Changsheng sneered.

You want to seize my Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure?

Let's see how many descendants you have that are enough for me to kill.

Once this was over, it would be about time to leave the Kirin Clan.

With his plans settled, Lin Changsheng began refining the Five-revolution Golden Elixirs.

More than a hundred golden elixirs flowed into his mouth like a river.

The Qi Creation Art, amplified several thousandfold, formed a vortex of spiritual qi that helped Lin Changsheng refine the medicinal power.

The Ink Qilin Clan's Innate Spiritual Qi was rapidly drawn away, immediately alarming the elders.

"What's going on?"

"It seems to be where Qi Mo is in seclusion!"

"How is that possible? His foundation is damaged, and repairing it should be immensely difficult. Yet he's actually absorbing Innate Spiritual Qi so frantically?"

"Hmph. He demanded so many spiritual materials and Spiritual Roots in a last-ditch attempt to make a comeback. How could it possibly be that easy?"

"That's right. With a damaged foundation, even we would find it difficult to recover."

"It's just the final struggle of a dying man, his last bit of stubbornness."

Though the miraculous signs were astonishing, it was only the absorption of Innate Spiritual Qi. None of the elders believed Qi Mo could stir up anything significant.

Unfortunately, they did not know that Qi Mo's damaged foundation was merely an act put on by "Qi Mo."

These were the signs of his impending breakthrough.

At first, they did not take it seriously and even continued to mock him.

But after ten thousand years had passed, not only had the spiritual qi vortex not vanished, it was absorbing Innate Spiritual Qi even more frantically.

This left the elders somewhat uneasy.

Could Qi Mo really have found a way to restore his foundation?

Another twenty thousand years passed.

The spiritual qi vortex finally disappeared.

This made the elders breathe a sigh of relief.

Yet at the same time, deep doubts arose in their hearts. With such a huge commotion, could he have actually succeeded?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

Yet the truth was that Lin Changsheng had successfully broken through.

The Five Qi within his chest had reached perfection. Red, white, black, azure, and yellow radiated profound Dao Rhythm.

The Celebratory Cloud above his head had completely solidified and bloomed.

The phantom image of Three Flowers emerged.

As long as Lin Changsheng could make the Three Flowers bloom completely, he would become a Grand Unity Golden Immortal expert.

Only then would he undergo a true transformation.

"Finally, the Five Qi have reached perfection. I've attained the perfected Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm."

Lin Changsheng opened his eyes with a smile.

Next came the blooming of the Three Flowers.

But he was in no hurry whatsoever.

This was a process of accumulation. The Three Flowers were the Heaven, Earth, and Human Three Flowers.

Each flower could reach the ninth-grade level.

Nine was the ultimate number. Reaching Eight-grade Three Flowers or above meant one had the possibility of becoming a saint.

As for Nine-grade Three Flowers, Lin Changsheng guessed that only Hongjun possessed them.

But Nine-grade Three Flowers were not his goal.

Nine might be the ultimate number, but in the workings of the Primordial Wilderness, by the numbers of the Heavenly Dao, twelve was perfection.

With his ten top-tier talents, the Three Flowers he would bloom would naturally be Twelve-petal Perfect Three Flowers!

However, blooming Twelve-grade Three Flowers required a vast amount of Merit to break through the limit of nine.

Thus, Lin Changsheng's next task was still to acquire more Merit.

"There are still ten thousand years left. I can first refine this Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure."

Lin Changsheng took out the Five Innate Banners.

His divine sense enveloped the Five Directions Banner, and he found that it contained forty-eight restrictions.

It was already among the very best of Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.

It truly deserved its fame as the Five Directions Banner.

His intervention had not been in vain.

Moreover, it was said that gathering all five Five Directions Banners would allow one to form the Five Elements Grand Formation.

Its exact power was unknown, because the Five Directions Banners had never been possessed by the same living being.

Collecting the remaining four Five Directions Banners became another of Lin Changsheng's goals.

Suppressing his distracting thoughts, Lin Changsheng began refining the Five Directions Banner.

[While refining the Central Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner of the Five Innate Banners, you entered sudden Enlightenment and comprehended the Great Dao of Metal.]

Lin Changsheng had not expected that simply refining a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure would allow him to comprehend a Great Dao.

This casual way of cultivating and attaining Enlightenment was simply too outrageous.

Even if Hongjun were here, he would have to kneel and kowtow several times before Lin Changsheng, begging, Please, act like a human being.

Enlightenment was something one might not encounter once in a million years, yet after refining a single Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, he had comprehended another Great Dao. Could he not be so casual about it?

But this was the overbearing effect brought by his ten top-tier talents.

There was no helping it. The difference between them was a system.

Lin Changsheng refined the Five Directions Banner while comprehending the Great Dao of Metal.

With the two complementing each other, the refining speed of the Five Innate Banners increased considerably.

At the same time, he refined even more restrictions.

In the blink of an eye, ten thousand years passed.

[You comprehended the Great Dao of Metal and gained the divine ability River of Geng Metal from it.]

"An unexpected delight."

"I didn't expect that comprehending the Great Dao of Metal would not only grant me a divine ability, but also let me refine several more restrictions."

The system's voice pulled Lin Changsheng out of his state of Enlightenment.

By Lin Changsheng's original estimate, he would have been able to refine at most twenty restrictions.

After all, this was a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, and the restrictions within it were incomparably complex.

But with the Great Dao of Metal, he had directly refined thirty restrictions.

That was a full ten more.

Do not underestimate those ten alone. They allowed him to unleash several more levels of the Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure's power.

At this moment, the Central Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner had drawn in its spiritual radiance.

"Return."

With a thought from Lin Changsheng, this Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure flew into his body.

Next was the Great Dao of Metal.

After all this time, Lin Changsheng had only comprehended this Great Dao to twelve percent.

That was already extremely good.

The Great Dao had long since retreated from the world, making it exceptionally difficult to comprehend.

For Lin Changsheng to comprehend so much of a Great Dao at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm and reach this level was truly no easy feat.

Once he attained the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm and transcended the River of Time and Space, the speed of his comprehension would increase further.

By now, he had mastered seven Great Daos.

But when it came to Great Daos, the more the better.

It was not as if he lacked the foundation or strength to comprehend them.

The Great Dao of Metal transformed into Dao Rhythm and entered Lin Changsheng's body.

Just as Lin Changsheng was about to test the divine ability he had just comprehended, the formation outside the cave abode was violently destroyed.

At the same time, an incomparably arrogant voice rang out from outside.

"Qi Mo, you piece of trash! You've hidden away for a hundred thousand years, so get the hell out here already!"
