This was truly a priceless treasure.Yi Tianxing's own archery skills were by no means inferior to others. Combined with his powerful physique and the amplification of the rune arrows and White Bone Battle Arrows, his archery skills could already rival those of legendary divine archers like Li Guang. However, until now, he had never been able to unleash his full strength. Archery depended heavily on the quality of the bow itself.
A truly fine warbow could fully display a person's power.If a bow couldn't even withstand the user's strength, its destructive force would be greatly compromised.With a top-tier warbow, killing an enemy from tens of thousands of miles away wouldn't be a dream.
And now, this Meteorite Bow could perfectly make up for his shortcomings.With the Meteorite Bow, Yi Tianxing would finally be able to unleash the full extent of his archery skills. As the bow continued to evolve, it would withstand even greater forces and unleash even more devastating destruction — to the point of shooting down the stars themselves, causing the heavens to rain falling stars.
Yi Tianxing had already decided to refine the Meteorite Bow as one of his life-bound divine weapons. He casually set it aside for now, and turned his attention to the other treasures.
There was a golden silk soft inner armor, Heavenly Silkworm Gloves, a battle sword, a mystic pearl, a seed, a smoking pipe, a blueprint, and a mask.Each item radiated a glow that clearly distinguished them as extraordinary treasures.
"This golden soft armor," Yi Tianxing murmured, "was stripped by that old thief, Sikong Picking Stars, from Zhu Yuanzhang himself. It's incredibly strong in defense, worn close to the body, and can save your life at a critical moment — a truly excellent item.As for the Heavenly Silkworm Gloves, they're a rare treasure born of heaven and earth. Once worn, they merge seamlessly with the skin, making the hands invulnerable to blades, bullets, fire, or water — all without leaving the slightest trace on the surface."
The battle sword was merely a sword embryo, but it was also an extraordinary material from heaven and earth, a supreme-grade embryo. Once refined, it would become an absolute peerless sword.
As for the mystic pearl, to Yi Tianxing's shock, it was an Innate Spirit Pearl, capable of absorbing heaven and earth's energy and transforming it into pure innate energy.It could greatly enhance cultivation speed when kept close, or even transform an entire area into a spiritual land rich in spirit veins if embedded into the earth.
Among all the treasures, this Innate Spirit Pearl's value was among the highest —for it could birth spirit veins, which naturally gathered ambient spiritual energy, greatly speeding up cultivation, nurturing talents and heavenly resources, and even converting vast lands into spiritual fields.
Then there was the Blood Bodhi Seed.
"The Blood Bodhi," Yi Tianxing noted after consulting the Wordless Heavenly Book, "is a rare and precious spirit medicine.It grows in places soaked with abundant blood energy, often in territories of fierce beasts or divine creatures.Bathed in powerful blood, it matures into a fruit entirely crimson in color.It can greatly strengthen a cultivator's blood and flesh, refine the soul, and enhance cultivation.The Blood Bodhi has no pit — it melts upon entering the mouth, instantly boosting one's strength.Grade: Supreme Earth-tier."
Without hesitation, Yi Tianxing sent the Blood Bodhi Seed into his Life Aperture (Dantian), planting it into a spiritual field to nurture it with abundant spiritual energy, hoping to regrow it into a mature Blood Bodhi Tree.
The Seven Emotions Bewitching Smoke Pipe was another priceless treasure.
"It can emit Seven Emotions Bewitching Smoke," Yi Tianxing realized, "which induces hallucinations, scrambles the mind, drives people into madness, or even causes permanent loss of consciousness.If used well, it could completely turn the tide at a critical moment."
The Faceless Mask was also extraordinary:
"Once worn, it can shapeshift the wearer's appearance at will — no flaws, no traces detectable even by divine sense, and even personal aura could be altered.If it fell into the hands of master thieves, even heaven would have difficulty tracking them down.To special individuals, this would be an absolutely priceless treasure."
Yi Tianxing's expression turned serious.He understood: the Faceless Mask was too dangerous to fall into the wrong hands.It must only be entrusted to those he trusted absolutely and completely.
Drawing a deep breath, he then picked up the blueprint.
It was nothing short of shocking.
"Blueprint for a Goblin War Chariot."
Yi Tianxing was inwardly shaken.It was a blueprint for crafting a Goblin War Chariot — a battlefield juggernaut, a terrifying war machine, itself a natural treasure.If successfully forged, it would vastly enhance the strength of Xuanhuang Town.
"I'll have to entrust this to Master Lu and the artisans of the Heavenly Works Pavilion.If they can craft it, Xuanhuang's foundation will become even more formidable."
Next, Yi Tianxing looked at the stack of martial arts manuals.
Each of these manuals was carried by powerful figures and was thus incredibly valuable:
Storm Battle Qi
Furious Thunder Battle Qi
Blazing Flame Battle Qi
Ninefold Phoenix Fire Art
Nine Heavens Star-Plucking Hand
True Scripture of the Mouse Aspect
Secrets of Mechanisms
Corpse Spear Construction Method
Summon Skeletons Construction Method
Corpse Explosion Technique
Four Symbols Heavenly Archery Scripture...and countless others.
There were over a hundred manuals, covering magic construction methods, battle qi cultivation arts, secret mechanical techniques — an utterly dazzling array.If Yi Tianxing hadn't had a strong enough will, he might have burst into laughter from pure excitement.
Among them, what caught his attention most was the Four Symbols Heavenly Archery Scripture.
"The Four Symbols Heavenly Archery Scripture," Yi Tianxing mused."An absolute pinnacle archery technique.The Four Symbols — Azure Dragon of the East, Vermilion Bird of the South, Black Tortoise of the North, White Tiger of the West — represent the four sacred beasts that suppress the cardinal directions.This archery scripture involves meditating on the Four Symbols to condense the corresponding Archery Intent.When the arrow is fired, it carries the aura of the Four Symbols, birthing their power."
Mastering this archery scripture would allow a single arrow to manifest into an Azure Dragon, a Vermilion Bird that burns the skies — invincible and unstoppable.However, the difficulty was incredibly high.
First, one had to condense their own Archery Intent.Only after that could they attempt to visualize the Four Symbols and merge them into their Archery Intent.
If one failed to condense the Four Symbols' intent, they could never fully master this supreme scripture.
"If I can master this technique," Yi Tianxing thought, "I'll have yet another trump card."
In this world, archery arts were extremely rare.Far more cultivators preferred cultivating Flying Sword Techniques, capable of killing from thousands of miles away.
With a thought, he stored all the treasures into the Spirit Pearl Space.
Then, looking into his body, a mixture of helplessness and anticipation welled up within him.
Inside his Sea of Divinity, he saw a crystal-clear, glass-like tower base standing firmly at its center, swallowing and fusing with his true energy.
The bronze battle spear that had once rested in his Sea of Divinity was gone.Instead, the tower base now had a newly-formed first layer — an eight-sided pagoda, with four shimmering gates.
However, these gates radiated divine light and appeared illusory; normally, no one could enter or exit through them.
This was clearly an unfinished pagoda, but the aura it emitted was unfathomably strong — capable of suppressing all things.
Moreover, it was still greedily devouring his inner true energy and the surrounding heaven-and-earth energy — a bottomless pit.
The True Dragon Qi in his Sea of Divinity had already diminished by a layer, and nearly all the incoming spiritual energy was immediately absorbed by the tower, disappearing without a trace, making the tower shine even more brightly.
"This tower... it's a monster," Yi Tianxing muttered."I really don't know how heaven and earth birthed such a freakish treasure.It forcibly integrates life-bound divine weapons into itself to form its tower body.Refining it means refining everything together."
This strange innate divine restriction was almost beyond imagination —no wonder Arthur hadn't dared to touch it himself and instead lured Yi Tianxing into this pitfall.
The tower contained a mysterious innate divine restriction:Primordial Genesis Creation Restriction!!
The tower had a unique instinct: it would devour life-bound divine weapons, merge them into itself, and forcibly open up a new world inside.
A life-bound divine weapon, once integrated, would either successfully open up a world and transform into an Opening Heaven Divine Artifact — or, if it failed, it would be utterly destroyed.
Thus, only the rarest of heaven-and-earth treasures qualified to become part of the tower and open up worlds.Ordinary weapons had no chance.
And it had to be life-bound divine weapons.
