Chapter 324: Chapter 323: Decaying Celestial Cannon, Subduing Colors (Third Update, Seeking Subscription)
In the Cave Mansion, a mighty cannon emerged.
At the moment the cannon appeared, it emitted a hint of destruction, and a sense of spirituality was being born within it, its aura was condensing, about to trigger the Celestial Tribulation.
A Magical Treasure reaching Fourth Grade requires Tribulation Crossing.
Through the baptism of the tribulation of heaven and earth, the Magical Treasure will be born with spirituality, transforming into a Spirit Treasure.
This is the inevitable change in the evolution of every Magical Treasure.
"Husband, what are the features of this Magical Treasure?"
Ye Wanyi curiously asked.
"This cannon is named [Decaying Celestial Cannon], forgoing defense, and endurance, transforming into extreme attack power and explosive force. In terms of explosive strength, no Magical Treasure is as powerful as it is!" Lu Xuanji laughed and said, "This cannon needs constant energy storage and will emit terrifying thunderfire attacks, comparable to a strike from a Nascent Soul Cultivator."
"Under this strike, there is aiming lock-on, making it impossible to evade, one can only withstand it head-on."
"Without special countermeasures, even a Nascent Soul Cultivator would be severely injured!"
"As for the drawback, after unleashing a world-shattering shot, the cannon barrel will be damaged, requiring some degree of repair, which cannot be done within at least ten days. Even after repairing the cannon barrel, energy storage will still need time, although using Upper Grade Spirit Stones may shorten it somewhat!"
"Lastly, when the Decaying Celestial Cannon unleashes its Nascent Soul-level strike, the power is immense, but it has the flaw of being rigid. If it encounters a few fast cultivators, they might be able to evade in time. A Magical Treasure, after all, is an external aid, unlike one’s own attacks which are agile and sharp!"
Lu Xuanji analyzed the Decaying Celestial Cannon’s strengths and various weaknesses.
In many instances, a Magical Treasure is used to amplify one’s own attack power.
For example, if the original attack power was ten, with a superior Magical Treasure, it could be amplified to twelve, fifteen, or even twenty.
Similarly, some Magical Treasures can replace top-tier Great Divine Techniques.
For instance, if a cultivator’s physical body is fragile, wearing top-grade armor is equivalent to cultivating a top-tier defensive Divine Technique.
This is the advantage of Magical Treasures.
As for the drawback, it’s that the Magical Treasure is not flexible enough.
If one solely focuses on the Magical Treasure, neglecting the enhancement of their own cultivation, it is putting the cart before the horse.
Buzz buzz buzz!
The Decaying Celestial Cannon was trembling, seemingly wanting to go for Tribulation Crossing, directly transforming into a Spirit Treasure.
Without experiencing the test of Celestial Tribulation, the Magical Treasure would lack Perfection and still have deficiencies.
Yet Lu Xuanji activated Magic, sealing the aura of the Decaying Celestial Cannon, not allowing it to undergo Tribulation Crossing. If the cannon went to cross the tribulation now, it would surely be shattered by the Celestial Tribulation.
It needed to continuously store energy, letting the cannon’s power reach its peak before trying the tribulation, to ensure certain success.
Activating Creation Magical Power, infusing strands of Magical Power into the cannon, storing it in the Energy Storage Stone.
When mana was exhausted, the Magical Power was continuously repaired.
After restoring Magical Power, Creation Magical Power was again infused into the cannon.
The energy storage time was relatively long, ending in about ten days for the Decaying Celestial Cannon.
The two figures flickered, leaving the Chu Capital, heading for the wilderness.
After traveling a hundred thousand miles, they arrived at a desolate wilderness. Lu Xuanji directly opened the seal of the Decaying Celestial Cannon; as the seal broke, the aura of a Fourth-Grade Spirit Treasure was triggered, and the tribulation clouds in the sky gathered, transforming into bolts of thunderbolts crashing down, thunderclouds roiling, silver snakes dancing.
Instantly, it turned into a destructive torrent.
Lu Xuanji and Ye Wanyi stayed far away, to avoid being affected by the Celestial Tribulation.
In Magical Treasure tribulation, cultivators should not interfere.
Boom boom boom!
The Celestial Tribulation persisted!
The Decaying Celestial Cannon continued bombarding, breaking through the tribulation.
When the last ray of light dissipated, all the tribulations were fully crossed, a seven-colored ray of light descended, the aura of the Decaying Celestial Cannon changed, spirituality increased, officially becoming a Fourth-Grade Spirit Treasure.
Moreover, with the increase of the Magical Treasure’s spirituality, an Artifact Spirit would gradually be nurtured.
Buzz buzz!
The massive bronze cannon was constantly shrinking, transforming into a miniature form, landing on the palm.
"This is for you!"
Lu Xuanji said, waving his hand, passing the [Decaying Celestial Cannon] over.
"This is too precious..."
Ye Wanyi said.
"What’s yours is mine!" Lu Xuanji said, "Just don’t use such a weapon lightly. Cultivation is key; a Magical Treasure is just a trick of the side door!"
Ye Wanyi nodded, dripping blood to refine this Magical Treasure.
"Oh, interesting!"
Suddenly, Lu Xuanji’s Divine Thought sensed something, and he smiled slightly, "Let’s go, we might encounter some interesting games!"
...
In the wilderness, a fierce battle erupted.
The aura of Golden Core clashed, waves of destruction followed one after another.
On the battlefield, two Golden Core Cultivators engaged in a bloody duel.
The waves of destruction continued, like nuclear bombs colliding.
Such clashes, if in a populous city, would in a short moment, wipe the city clean, turning it into a wasteland.
Boom boom boom!
The engagement continued, after a hundred exchanges, suddenly a black-robed person’s body trembled slightly, mana receded like a tide.
Just about to fall to the ground.
Yet that black-robed person stepped forward, reaching out and grabbing her, stepping forward said, "Beautiful one, you have eventually fallen into my hands!"
"My master is the True Monarch of the East Sea from the Divine Water Palace, if you touch me, you will inevitably anger my master..." the black-robed woman threatened.
"Haha, my master is the Six Desires Demon Venerable of the Hehuan Sect, if I force myself upon you, so what? If True Monarch of the East Sea has the ability, they can attack Hehuan Sect, Master wouldn’t mind taking a Nascent Soul Furnace!" the black-robed man sneered, not taking the so-called threats to heart.
"Moreover, as long as I do things cleanly, wiping away all traces, who can discover it was me at work!"
The black-robed man sneered, carrying the woman away into the distance.
The black-robed woman struggled, wanting to self-detonate her Golden Core, but her body was constrained, devoid of any force to resist.
Thinking about the upcoming disgrace at the hands of this Demon Cultivator, losing not only her purity but also her life, tears couldn’t help but flow.
Swipe!
At this moment, a golden flash streaked by, a figure appeared, shrouded in a gray mist, obscuring the true features, plunging into a blur.
The speed was extremely fast, slapping towards his head.
The black-robed figure flashed, quickly dodged away.
Yet the gray-clothed person pursued relentlessly, slicing down with a slash of hand.
He flung the woman aside, taking out a Great Banner to suppress down.
As the Great Banner shook, it transformed into strands of Sword Qi slashing down.
Bang!
The gray figure cast streaks of gray Magical Power, colliding with the Sword Qi, causing the Sword Qi to dissolve away.
A destructive palm seal descended, tearing everything apart.
