Chapter 250: Chapter 147: Seven-Star Thunderbolt Spear

The Profound Plain True Fire contained a sharpness unique to the Metal Element, and refining it produced a stabbing pain that felt like it would tear his meridians apart.

Of all the True Fires Yang Jing had obtained so far, this was the most difficult to refine.

If he tried to refine it by force, it would rip through all the meridians in his body.

An ordinary cultivator would be helpless against this True Fire, but Yang Jing was different. He had already refined Four Elements True Fire and possessed a talent for Five Elements True Fire. His control over True Fire was far beyond that of others.

He cautiously drew a single wisp from the Profound Plain True Fire.

The Profound Plain True Fire reacted far more violently than the other True Fires. The mung-bean-sized flame instantly swelled, and the blazing platinum-colored True Fire transformed into a golden light that shot straight at him.

This was a complete Tier Three True Fire, unlike the Ice Soul Cold Flame, which was merely a splinter from a Tier Three True Fire. Like a Spiritual Artifact, this flame already contained a faint trace of Spiritual Essence.

Yang Jing was not panicked in the slightest. He converted his Magical Power into Sun True Fire, using fire to counter metal.

The two balls of True Fire immediately began to corrode each other, and the temperature inside the Quiet Chamber skyrocketed.

Yang Jing released his Celestial True Gang to block the astonishing heat.

Although the Sun True Fire he had condensed was of a lower tier, its advantage was his own Magical Power providing an endless supply. It was at a disadvantage at first, but then they reached a stalemate.

When Yang Jing summoned the Ice Soul Cold Flame to attack from both sides, the Profound Plain True Fire immediately began to falter, allowing him to tear off a wisp of the flame.

After tearing off the wisp, he took out his Divine Fire Gourd and drew the Profound Plain True Fire inside.

Including the Star True Fire taken from the Star Core, the Divine Fire Gourd now held a total of six types of True Fire, all of them top-ranking Spiritual Fires in the Nine Heavens World.

The Gourd’s originally crimson body now glowed with a jade-like luster. The Spiritual Qi it consumed daily was nearly equivalent to that of an Early Stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Placing the Divine Fire Gourd on a Spirit Vein node, Yang Jing activated his True Yang Body to protect his meridians before cautiously swallowing the wisp of Profound Plain True Fire.

Even with the Celestial True Gang protecting him, Yang Jing could still clearly feel a faint, sharp pain and a burning sensation traveling through his meridians.

The agony only vanished under the soothing nourishment of his Celestial True Gang once he had drawn the Profound Plain True Fire into his Dantian and completely refined it with his Magical Power.

Yang Jing spent a full month dedicating all his energy to refining the Profound Plain True Fire, finally refining it to the limit his Magical Power could sustain.

He sat cross-legged in the Quiet Chamber, sensing the Five-Colored True Fire in his Dantian.

The True Fire transformed into a luminous flame that circled his Five Elements Wheel. As the wheel turned, it slowly brought the five different-tiered True Fires to a uniform level.

Yang Jing opened his palm, and a Five-Colored True Fire burned slowly above it.

He had finally gathered the Five Elements True Fire, which greatly satisfied the somewhat obsessive part of his personality. Now that all Five Elements were complete, this True Fire had become another powerful tool for Yang Jing, on par with his Thunder Technique and Sword Dao.

Feeling a bit impatient, Yang Jing immediately took out the Turtle Shell that Yang Jingxu had sent him a while ago. He fired up his furnace again and refined a new set of three Flying Spirit Shields.

With the Profound Plain True Fire, he could now handle various types of Spiritual Gold with even greater ease.

Compared to the previous ones, this set of three Flying Spirit Shields had more Spiritual Essence, improved Defense Power and reaction speed, and was of much higher quality.

Yang Jingxu was very happy to receive this set of Flying Spirit Shields.

Yang Jing told her to stop accepting commissions for refining Spiritual Artifacts.

After this period of intense artifact refining, he had completely mastered the Five Elements Refining Technique and was almost certain he could successfully refine the Celestial Waterfall Sword.

However, he first took out the Three Corpses Bone Demon Spine that had been sitting in his Storage Bag for a long time, preparing to refine a Big Spear for Iron Head first.

To Yang Jing back in his Qi Cultivation Stage, this spine was naturally a top-tier Refining Material. But now that he held a high position and had seen all kinds of rare Spiritual Materials from the great families of the Northern Domain, this spine seemed rather mediocre.

However, when refining a Spiritual Artifact, adding Spiritual Materials taken from living creatures greatly increased the chance of it developing Spiritual Essence.

This was also why the Spiritual Artifacts from the Four Demon Sects were cheaper than those from the Six Sects.

Yang Jing used his Grotto Dark Dharma Eye and Bright Qi Talent to carefully examine the Three Corpses Bone Demon Spine in his hand. Only when he had memorized every detail of the spine did he begin to formulate a plan for refining it.

Iron Head was proficient in two spear techniques. One was the Nine Yang Spear Technique that came with the True Yang Body, and the other was the Flying Lightning Demon-Slaying Spear Mantra, which he had comprehended after being possessed by the Thunder God General.

The momentum of this Spear Mantra was as swift as flying lightning and unstoppable, its power even greater than that of the Nine Yang Spear Technique.

However, no matter how much Iron Head wracked his brain, he couldn’t record the Demon-Slaying Spear Mantra in his mind onto a Jade Scroll.

Yang Jing pondered for a long time and came up with a rough idea.

He first drew the Three Corpses Bone Demon’s spine into the Profound Celestial Furnace and summoned the Ice Soul Cold Flame.

Through numerous experiments, Yang Jing had discovered that Spiritual Materials taken from living creatures were generally not as tough or sturdy as Spiritual Gold of the same tier, but their affinity for Magical Power was much higher.

By processing such Spiritual Materials with the Ice Soul Cold Flame—using its low temperature to freeze them into a fine powder, then using True Fire to sinter that powder with the powder of other Spiritual Gold—he could refine an entirely new type of Spiritual Material.

This new material perfectly combined the advantages of both.

Yang Jing waited until the Three Corpses Bone Demon’s spine was completely frozen and shattered into powder. He then picked out and discarded the soft parts that were saturated with Demonic Qi, keeping only the hard outer layer that had been ablated by the Celestial Spirits Star Force.
