Yellow Court Daoist

"Heavenly Crystal Cherry Tree."

"Seven-Colored Lotus."

"Green Thunder Bamboo."

Lu Qingfeng swept his gaze over them, understanding their attributes instantly.

With the great changes in heaven and earth, Spiritual Mountains emerged one after another. From within these mountains, Divine Objects were born, whether they be Spirit Plants, Spiritual Medicine, or other various Spiritual Objects.

The emergence of General Ridge was accompanied by these three kinds of Spiritual Objects.

Apart from the Heavenly Crystal Cherry Tree, the grades of the other two were average.

However, this was only the beginning. As more and more Spiritual Mountains emerged, the Changqing Realm would welcome a second enhancement.

At that time, the previously emerged Spiritual Mountains would rise again, bringing forth new and higher-grade Spiritual Objects.

"The Green Thunder Bamboo has matured and can be harvested for refining Flying Sword Magic Artifacts. The Heavenly Crystal Cherry Fruit is still at the flowering stage, and it will take at least eighteen years to mature, so it cannot be relied upon for now. The Seven-Colored Lotus, on the other hand, matures quickly. There were originally six Seven-Colored Lotuses in this pond; one has matured and was consumed by Ren Changsheng, whose cultivation soared from the Human Realm straight to the Earth Realm Peak."

"If he concentrates on refining it, reaching the so-called God Realm would not be difficult."

"The remaining five lotuses will ripen one after another within three to five years. It would be too wasteful to consume them directly; using the Seven-Colored Lotus as the principal medicine, it is possible to refine several furnaces of Seven Glories Pill."

Seven Glories Pill is a First Rank Spirit Pill, greatly beneficial to those at the Foundation Establishment Qi Introduction and Foundation Establishment Condensing Liquid phases of cultivation.

With a thought from Lu Qingfeng, the Five-colored Flying Phoenix who had recovered spread its brilliant feathers, landing in front of Lu Qingfeng.

"What's the matter?"

The Five-colored Flying Phoenix felt both fear and hatred towards Lu Qingfeng, the soul-deep pain from a few days ago unforgettable for a lifetime.

Lu Qingfeng was indifferent to the Five-colored Flying Phoenix's attitude. Pointing to the Green Thunder Bamboo, Seven-Colored Lotus, and Heavenly Crystal Cherry Tree, he said, "These are General Ridge's three Spiritual Objects; I entrust you to guard them. From now on, you may open up a cave dwelling here for cultivation. The spiritual energy here is rich, perfect for cultivation."

"Remember, do not neglect your duties and allow someone to sneak in and steal the Spiritual Objects."

"Embezzlement is even more unacceptable!"

"Understood!"

The Five-colored Flying Phoenix answered stiffly.

A method of control had long been implanted in her by the little Taoist; even the slightest rebellion resulted in drilling, soul-piercing pain, how could she dare to disobey.

However, this place was indeed not bad, with Spiritual Objects for company and abundant spiritual energy, it was an excellent place for cultivation.

Seeing that the Five-colored Flying Phoenix was behaving, Lu Qingfeng secretly nodded.

This Demon Bird had not long broken through to the Second Rank and was still lingering at the beginning phases due to the lack of proper methods.

Lu Qingfeng had many Divine Skills and easily subdued the bird. Afterwards, he repeatedly tormented it with the 'Poison Punishment Bone-locking Heart-piercing Little Asura Technique', until the Five-colored Flying Phoenix could no longer endure it and submitted.

[Technique: Poison Punishment Bone-locking Heart-piercing Little Asura Technique]

[Grade: Super-level]

[Derivation Technique: Five times enhancement]

[Description: A Demon Dao method, an interrogation technique that employs vicious and ruthless torture.]

The Poison Punishment Bone-locking Heart-piercing Little Asura Technique was obtained by Lu Qingfeng from the White Rock Mountain Immortal Mansion, a malicious method enlightened by Fiery Fire Wanderer from the twelve Du Tian Fierce Fire God Flags.

It is one of the most cruel punishments in the Demon Dao.

Intrinsically a Sorcery refined for use, it enters the enemy's body through the seven orifices, flowing along the meridians and bones throughout the body.

The fire does not burn the body; instead, it is insidiously noxious, focusing on melting the bone marrow, souring the heart and lungs.

Initially, those who suffer it feel lethargic, as though affected by spring sleepiness, not only feeling no discomfort but also somewhat comfortable.

However, once the sorcerous fire has traveled a minor celestial cycle through the body's meridians, an unbearable itchiness that penetrates the bones and heart arises, with no place to scratch, more tormenting than enduring scores or hundreds of knife cuts.

Following that, the bones throughout the body ache as though they will break. Thus, it switches between periods of itching and aching, or both coming at the same time.

The victim's own essential spirit marrow is also gradually consumed by the sorcerous fire, turning from withered to exhausted.

No matter if you have an Immortal Body, once this Demon Fire infiltrates your body, it will destroy your cultivation path and annihilate your being.

Yet, those who suffer from it endure excruciating pain, and those who use this type of sorcery to harm others cannot avoid depleting their fundamental Yuan Qi. Hence, even the Fiery Fire Wanderer treasures this cruel and malicious magic, and does not use it lightly unless faced with a deep grudge or great hatred.

Originally, this technique was high-level, performed by the Fiery Fire Wanderer, who had reached the Mahayana realm, even Primordial Spirit Experts could not resist it with force.

Lu Qingfeng has enhanced it to a super-level, making it even more insidious and vicious. Using it on a mere Second Rank Five-colored Flying Phoenix was truly overkill.

Even before the demonic flames burned to the core of its True Essence, the Five-colored Flying Phoenix couldn't bear it any longer and begged for mercy.

Easily subdued by Lu Qingfeng.

The Five-colored Flying Phoenix was compliant, and Lu Qingfeng did not trouble it further but changed the subject and asked, "Every Spiritual Mountain that emerges has Spiritual Objects accompanying it, what grows within Bao Du Mountain?"

Now that the Five-colored Flying Phoenix, the master of Bao Du Mountain, has been captured by him, naturally, the Spiritual Objects in Bao Du Mountain also belong to Lu Qingfeng, but he wanted to have a clear understanding.

"The only thing growing on Bao Du Mountain is a Red Fruit Tree, bearing thumb-sized fiery red, crystalline fruits. Consuming it can enhance one's strength and enrich one's bloodline. There were only three fruits, and I have consumed them all."

The Five-colored Flying Phoenix, knowing the times, did not hide anything.

"Red Fruit Tree."

"Could it be the Vermilion Fruit?"

Lu Qingfeng speculated in his mind.

He ordered the Five-colored Flying Phoenix to establish a cave dwelling on the mountain, whereas he returned to the front mountain to the Soul Searching Temple.

Whether the Spiritual Object in Bao Du Mountain was the Vermilion Fruit or not, time would tell.

There was no rush for now.

With the Seven-Colored Lotus on the back mountain, Lu Qingfeng immediately sent Ren Changsheng down the mountain to collect various auxiliary herbs needed to refine the Seven Glories Pill.

Most of these auxiliary herbs were common herbs, with only two First Rank Spiritual Medicines requiring considerable effort to find in the current Changqing Realm.

Lu Qingfeng was not in a hurry either.

He cultivated slowly and studied the "Heavenly Monarch Array Dao True Interpretation".

The study of Array Dao is vast; with difficulty finding suitable materials for array set-up, Lu Qingfeng focused on understanding the methods of arranging Array Formation Restrictions.

Although in many aspects, the Law Prohibition is far inferior to the Array Dao.

However, compared to the Array Dao, setting up a Law Prohibition does not need various materials as a foundation. With just the infusion of Magic Power True Essence, or even True Qi Inner Breath, one can also exhibit a degree of power, which suits Lu Qingfeng's current situation.

In the field of the Array Dao, other than a negligible foundation accumulated during Artifact Refining, Lu Qingfeng had no advantage.

However, he had time and started his research from theory, going from the simple to the complex.

The Heavenly Silver obtained from Soul Searching Temple and General Temple, apart from enhancing the strength of Zhu Rong Demon God, there was plenty left.

Lu Qingfeng twisted it into Burning God Incense to light, speeding up the Derivation and understanding of the Law Prohibition.

Heavenly Silver is mysterious and has endless uses.

This is one of them.

Studying the Array Dao and Law Prohibition consumes a lot of mental strength.

Being a beginner and with low cultivation, even if faced with the most Low-level Law Prohibition, Lu Qingfeng would have to exhaust all his mental strength and leave his Divine Soul weakened just to understand a bit.

The pace of understanding was even slower.

Burning the Heavenly Silver, with the pure Telekinesis replenishment, first accelerated Lu Qingfeng's process of deriving and setting up the Array, saving him time and mental strength. Secondly, it could make up for Lu Qingfeng's depletion of Divine Soul and mental strength, increasing his endurance.

Of course.

This was entirely a profligate practice.

Heavenly Silver is precious, even Fifth Rank or Fourth Rank deities or a Jiedan True Man could not withstand such wastage, burning Heavenly Silver for such a luxury.

But Lu Qingfeng didn't care.

At this stage, Heavenly Silver could only be used to train Zhu Rong Demon God for him.

The remaining Heavenly Silver would be a waste just lying around, so it was better to use it to accelerate the study of Array Dao.
