Chapter 1801: Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Seal

nding, naturally would not have any objections. The quality of these cold gold ore mothers was almost consistent, so everyone quickly divided them equally and rushed out of the cave.Let me know if you...The spirit has perished.

Hearing Master Gu's sigh, Qin Sang frowned and asked, "Can't restoring this treasure bring back its spirit"

Master Gu then asked, "Does the Venerable Master know the difference between innate spiritual treasures, acquired spiritual treasures, and true treasures"

Qin Sang respectfully said, "Please instruct me, Master."

>

Qi Da Shi only knew that there were divisions above Ling Bao, but he couldn't explain the characteristics of later-heaven Ling Bao and Zhen Bao.

When Master Gu saw that Qin Sang knew about these kinds of treasures, he thought to himself that he could save a lot of words and explain their characteristics directly.

"It's nothing, humble monk. I gleaned this knowledge from the teachings in our sect's scriptures."

The greatest distinction between innate spiritual treasures and acquired spiritual treasures lies in their origins: innate versus acquired. As for whether their power varies in degree, I am unaware. It is said that innate spiritual treasures are products of heaven and earth, extremely rare. We alchemists can only forge acquired spiritual treasures and genuine treasures.

"When cultivators refine spiritual treasures to their peak, spirit embryos are about to conceive a primordial spirit. There are two choices available, thus giving rise to 後天靈寶 (acquired spiritual treasures) and 真寶 (genuine treasures)."

"The spirit is born, undergoes heavenly tribulations, and achieves a treasure of the acquired heaven."

Or forcefully interrupt the evolution of the spirit fetus, scattering its essence into the spirit treasure itself, achieving a true treasure.

There is no difference between the two choices, they are both a kind of transformation.

>The Spirit Treasures of the day after tomorrow have spirits, they can assist their masters, and they can also independently activate their own bodies to attack enemies. They have many uses and infinite possibilities.

>

“Possessing a spirit weapon is akin to having a trustworthy Daoist companion, but equally, the spirit weapon may also betray you.”

“Moreover, even the spirit of a utensil belongs to the myriad spirits of the world and must undergo heavenly tribulations.”

True treasures need not endure trials.

Moreover, a spirit fetus is born by inheriting the essence of an object. By dispersing the spirit fetus and completely merging it with its main body, its power resides entirely within one person, becoming purer and more ultimate. Unless it is taken away, it will never betray its owner. This is the greatest advantage of a genuine treasure.

“In many cases, Zhenbao is more suitable than later spiritual treasures.

”

It is said that sword cultivators and cultivators who possess a natal spirit treasure mostly choose to refine their natal spirit treasures into true treasures, helping them pursue purity and the ultimate path.

Hearing these secrets, Qin Sang instantly understood a lot. Looking at the broken drum, he murmured, "The instrument spirit has fallen, which is equivalent to the essence of the artifact being scattered..."

>To make an inappropriate analogy.

The day after tomorrow, Lingbao can be compared to both cultivation through method and spiritual cultivation. After its fall, its cultivation base is completely lost, leaving only an empty shell.

A True Treasure is equivalent to a Power Cultivator, focusing on refining their physical body. Even after death, their physical body remains a precious artifact.

"Not bad."

Master Gu nodded, "The true treasure's power lies in its core. After being destroyed, it is difficult to repair, but once repaired, it can return to its former glory. Even if it cannot be repaired, the fragments still retain some of the core's power. However, this is not the case for acquired spiritual treasures..."

After a moment's pause, she looked at the broken drum. "If the spirit within is still present, even if only a sliver of its essence remains, it could slowly nourish and recover itself without any external force. But if the spirit has perished, even if we repair its body to its original state, we will only have a lifeless husk."

Qin Sang secretly thought, "No wonder."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

A shard of a genuine treasure still possesses formidable power. When smelted into the Hurricane Armor, it can withstand attacks from Lord Lihou.

But the broken drum only had a hole in it, showing no miraculous signs, just like any ordinary thing.

"The mortal vessel also has its ranks. If this treasure's original form is restored, will it be controllable Can it recover to its former glory" Qin Sang pondered and asked.

This is not a translatable sentence. It appears to be just an HTML tag (

) with some extra characters. Let me know if you have any other text that you'd like translated!

Just as a Fa cultivator, during the cultivation process, one's physical body also undergoes a baptism. Though not as profound as a Body Cultivator's, it is far from ordinary.

Moreover, the Lingbao artifact was made from various celestial and earthly treasures. Even if its spirit perished, the essence of these treasures couldn't be completely dispersed, not a single drop would be left behind.

Master Gu pondered, "It's impossible to determine the exact nature of a heavenly treasure. Each one is born from unique circumstances and complex causes. In my humble opinion, repairing this drum face could be comparable to creating a true heavenly treasure, or it might only amount to a mere imitation. If this drum was once a predecessor's personal heavenly treasure, its power would likely only reach the level of a magical artifact."

This statement coincides with Qin Sang's speculation.

Repairing a strange innate spirit treasure from the future is undoubtedly extremely difficult without a compatible spirit.

Not only must one possess masterful refining skills to thoroughly comprehend the essence of this treasure, but also gather various precious spiritual materials and experiment with them one by one.

If in the end, you only receive one piece of magic treasure, wouldn't that be a loss

"Is there no way to revive the spirit" Qin Sang asked unwillingly, his voice low.

Master Gu shook his head, "Even if there were such a secret technique, bringing dead wood back to life would be like creating something anew. It would probably be even harder than refining a congenital spiritual treasure from scratch. It's something beyond our capabilities."

Qin Sang sighed lightly. He also knew that his idea was a bit far-fetched.

Then I thought of the Chéngyǐng Sword in the Qianjun Bracelet. Could this sword also be a post-heaven spirit treasure whose spirit had been extinguished

He had high hopes for the broken drum and the Shadowing Sword, but they proved less useful than even shards of true treasures.

Seeing Qin Sang lost in thought, Gu Da Shi couldn't help but say again: "The greatest value of this drum lies in the process of its restoration. By comprehending the way of refining artifacts during the repair, the refiner will surely reap great rewards."

When she spoke, her eyes held a look of anticipation as they gazed upon Qin Sang.

Qin Sang slightly raised her head, hearing the meaning in Gu Da Shi's words.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The temptation of Lingbao the day after tomorrow, any refiner would surely be unable to resist. Master Gu explained so much tirelessly, all for the sake of this last sentence.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

She could easily come up with a reason to trade the treasure for a smaller price. She could claim that she's just entering the realm of profound mysteries and lacks experience, so it's possible they wouldn't see through her.

This indicates that Master Gu's character is not bad, and Master Lingxu's evaluation of her back then was not low.

Since it was impossible to expect the drum itself to break, Qin Sang naturally wanted to seize the greatest value. He pondered: "To be frank with Master, this poor Daoist also has some knowledge of refining instruments. Although I can't compare with Master, my progress is not insignificant."

Gu Master's eyebrows were slightly furrowed.

She thought that trading a fake spiritual treasure wouldn't be a bad deal for Qin Sang, and since he had just entered the Cave Profound realm and urgently needed to improve his strength, he should agree.

Before Master Gu could finish, Qin Sang immediately refused, "This poor Taoist happens to have several protective artifacts. Having too many is no use. This poor Taoist doesn't seek anything else. I wonder if it would be fortunate enough for me to ask Master Gu to point me in the way of refining artifacts"

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Seeing Qin Sang remain completely unmoved, Master Gu fell into a state of embarrassment.

She carries the genuine teachings of her sect, which are strictly forbidden from being shared outside. If Qin Sang were from a Daoist sect, there might be room for compromise.

"It's not that I am unwilling, but the sect rules restrict it. True transmissions of our school are not to be divulged outside. All I can do is present these true person with the techniques and books on crafting artifacts I have collected over many years, along with my own insights derived from them."

Is the value of these things equal to or greater than a broken treasure from yesterday

To the benevolent, one sees benevolence; to the wise, one sees wisdom.

Having observed Gu Da Shi, Qin Sang confirmed he wasn't bargaining. He pondered for a moment and said, "Since that's the case, this poor Daoist has one request. This treasure will be temporarily stored in the True Person's residence, and every so often, this poor Daoist will come to visit the True Person. The insights the True Person gains must be taught to this poor Daoist without omission. And on the day we begin repairing this treasure, this poor Daoist must personally lend a hand, with the True Person guiding him."

This condition is actually similar to what I discussed with Master Qi.

Master Gu's expression showed surprise. He didn't expect Qin Sang to be so bold. The conditions he proposed wouldn't be fulfilled for a long time, yet he dared to leave this heavenly relic with her directly.

At the same time, Master Gu also realized that Qin Sang's conditions were very difficult. Comprehending the remnants of the Heavenly Treasure technique would inevitably involve the sect's true teachings.

This is the remnant treasure of tomorrow!

She had only heard his name before and this was her first time seeing him.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

In the transmission of masters, there are many records of acquired spiritual treasures. However, as later generations declined and became increasingly decadent, no one is now able to refine acquired spiritual treasures.

Upon hearing it from my master, I was fortunate enough to have seen a spirit tool in the residence of a great immortal. It was said to be a young girl carved from pink jade.

Even the renowned Dong Xuan Zhenren of the Daoist sect, despite being a fourth-rank immortal official in the Dao Court, possesses only spirit treasures at most.

Finally, Master Gu agreed to Qin Sang's conditions, and the two swore an oath to each other.

Qin Sang pushed the broken drum in front of Master Gu.

Master Gu's jade finger pressed against the drum face, gently caressing it. After a moment, he waved his sleeve, and dozens of jade slips lay on the table.

Qin Sang thanked them and put everything into his Qianjun ring.

Three days later.

Qin Sang once again came to the Beiji Exorcism Institute.

The Golden Armored Guards recognized Qin Sang and, having already received orders, immediately took him to the Office of Investiture.

Qin Sang discovered that the Dao Ting Shu Lu Si's layout and appearance were very similar to those of large sects like Lei Ting Zuǒ Yòu Fu, just on a grander scale.

The plaque above the gate reads: "White Stone Sets Up an Altar, Not a Certain Sect's Altar."

As can be seen, the name of this school comes from the ceremony of granting talismans in the Daoist ritual hall. After all, talismans are fundamental to the Daoist tradition.

The grand hall inside was not the Sanyang Hall or Leizu Hall Qin Sang had seen before, but the Houtu Hall.

Inside the hall, hanging there was actually a statue of Houtu, the Empress of Earth and Deity!

Perhaps because Qin Sang was not a member of the Daoist sect, this initiation ceremony was simple and straightforward, without any elaborate rituals.

Only the transmitting master, officiating master, and recommending master were present.

The one recommending them was Ning Luo, a true master. The other two were also white-haired old Taoists, their auras deep and profound like the sea, yet carrying an inescapable air of twilight.

The auspicious time has arrived, the master of transmission opened the altar of talismans.

Strangely, instead of a golden seal in the center, a light orb burst forth. Within it, the glow constantly shifted and changed, obscuring its form.

Apart from that, everything is as usual.

Begin the ceremony.

Conferring talismans.

Submit.

Everything proceeded smoothly. Qin Sang knelt on both knees, waiting until the talisman split in two—one entering his body and the other burning on the altar. When the dust settled, he finally let out a long sigh of relief.

After the initiation ceremony was over, the two masters immediately closed their doors to see off the guests.

Ning Luo gave Qin Sang a copy of the "Ten Thousand Gods Thunder God Immortal Guide" and, after making an appointment with Qin Sang for the day he would retrieve the scripture, left in a hurry.

Qin Sang left the Beiji Exorcism Institute without hesitation and headed straight for his cave dwelling.

'Bang!'

The cave dwelling is closed, and the restrictions are activated.

Qin Sang couldn't hide his eagerness. He immediately sat cross-legged and summoned the talisman platform.

The talisman platform at this time was far more complete than before, already taking the shape of a platform. In the center, the divine lightning talisman slowly rotated.

The Fire Jade Centipede was quietly cultivating in the altar. When summoned by Qin Sang, it flew out of the talisman altar and landed on the ground, curling up into a ball.

The structure of the talisman array is composed of two types of talisman forms: Yuqing Chaolei Fu and Liu Jin Huo Ling Lei Zhao. Qin Sang now possesses the Three-Rank Fa Lu Wu Lei Mi Lu, and has also obtained new divine talismans.

The talisman that carries the Five Thunder Secret Scriptures is called the Five Thunder Heavenly Heart True Seal Talisman. It is said that this talisman can form the Five Thunder Heavenly Heart True Seal, acting as divine punishment, with unmatched power and a formidable reputation.

>

Of course, what Qin Sang cared about most was the effect of Fa Lu Ding Qi. The talismans were just an accessory.

He first took out the new Ten Thousand Gods Thunder Immortal Induction, and roughly glanced at it.

Water Lei Xianzhen, the master of thunder decrees, the heavenly thunder's counterpart, Dragon Thunder Immortal Executioner, Divine Thunder True Executioner...

The number of heavenly gods is less than that of the second-rank talismans, but their realm is obviously higher.

Unfortunately, all the names of the gods are gray.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

After finishing, Qin Sang pulled the Immortal of Wan Shen Lei Si to the side and took out some jade slips.

These are some ancient texts from the Beigu Exorcism Institute that Ning Luo had given him in advance. They contain insights left by predecessors who practiced the Five Thunder Secret Scroll, which can help those studying the talisman shapes to better understand them.

>

Then, he took out a jade box from the Qianjun Ring.

The box held a demon pill, which belonged to the Lei Gui. He was planning to refine its power to forge an altar.

Everything was ready. Qin Sang took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and concentrated, immersing himself in the Five Thunder Secret Formulae.

An incredibly complex system of glyphs appeared before Qin Sang.

Five Thunders Heavenly Heart True Seal Talisman!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Even with corresponding texts and the form already broken down, Qin Sang still expended a great deal of mental effort when it came to comprehending them.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The difficulty of the first asymmetric one isn't actually that great.

However, Qin Sang was not in a hurry to cast the altar. First, he went over all the scattered shapes and then looked through those books again. He had a general impression of the symbols in his mind before he began to act.

'Zila!'

Qin Sang's palm flashed with lightning, emitting a fluctuation similar to that of the Lei Gui demon pill.

This is the remaining thunder power from refining the Thunder Turtle Monster Bone before.

Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!

Qin Sang closed his eyes tightly, commanding this surge of lightning power to paint across the void.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

With his movements, a winding and intricate glyph emitted a dazzling silver glow.

This step went very smoothly, the first formation was completed in one go, and it vanished into the talisman array in a flash.

The talisman platform trembled, the divine thunderbolt seal bloomed with a brilliant light. Inside the platform, thunderbolts danced about, creating a scene of utter chaos.

There is order in chaos.

As Qin Sang's Seal of the Three Sovereigns continuously changed, the Taoist altar trembled with decreasing intensity. The lightning threads converged, and the light within the Divine Sky Thunder Seal subsided.

>

The Three-Tiered Talisman Altar is complete!

"Finally..."

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

Qin Sang didn't continue, he immediately woke up, his eyes lit with excitement, and looked inward at his dantian.

With a slight movement of his mind, he circulated his cultivation technique. The tranquil Qi sea finally surged with ripples. The spiritual energy within the cave was attracted, madly converging towards Qin Sang, almost forming a vortex around him.

>

A steady stream of vital energy flows into the body.

With the Three Tiered Talisman Array suppressing him, there was not even a trace of chaos. His cultivation rapidly recovered, breaking through the limits of the Nascent Soul stage.

Back to strength!

Qin Sang raised his palm and tried a few spells. The familiar feeling returned.

A smile appeared on his lips, and from then on he could finally continue his cultivation.

The spiritual energy in this world is dense, and his aptitude, after being tempered many times, has become comparable to that of a Heaven's Spirit Root. In the future, his cultivation will surely advance by leaps and bounds!

There's no rush at the moment.

First build the altar, then cultivate.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

He cultivated the scattered form while using thunder power to forge an altar. Soon after, he exhausted the thunder power of the demon bones.

'Slap!'

When the jade box was opened, the tortoise demon pill flew into Qin Sang's palm by itself.

Caressing the demon pill gently, Qin Sang sensed the violent power within it. He pondered for a moment, then tried to draw upon the lightning energy contained within the demon pill.

Time passes day by day.

The Lu altar is gradually being perfected.

At last, the agreed-upon time arrived, and Qin Sang returned to the Beiji Exorcism Institute.

Ning Luo truly lived up to expectations and brought back the treasured texts from the Tianshu Courtyard and the Thunder Left and Right Halls.

Qin Sang expressed his gratitude profusely.

Taking the scriptures, he once again visited Master Gu, then left the treatment platform. He felt light and free.ter, but it was definitely not as fast as the secret arts of the Witch Clan.The deity is in seclusion.Manifest in plain sight.The name of Qing Feng Dao Chang, the ancestor of the Xie family, gradually...
