Translator: 549690339

Li Cheng could never have imagined that merely transforming the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod would cause the emergence of a celestial phenomenon associated with the birth of an Immortal Artifact!

This kind of phenomenon could, no doubt, be easily sensed even hundreds of millions of miles away!

Gazing into the colorful clouds in the sky, Li Cheng knew that things had escalated!

Turning a half-Immortal Artifact into a full Immortal Artifact had truly shattered the worldly order that stated such artifacts couldn’t be produced!

The commotion and consequences this incited were likely to exceed his control!

The colorful clouds continued to converge, and standing amidst the sea of fire, one could see the entire sky painted with dazzling colors, with a breathtakingly refreshing aura spreading throughout the world. It was as if one was bathing in the baptism of Heaven and Earth!

The next moment, boundless power poured down from the clouds, enveloping the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod directly!

“Indeed, as it becomes an Immortal Artifact, the baptism from Heaven and Earth arrives!” Li Cheng muttered to himself and started to circulate the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture!

Disrupting the order, Li Cheng had believed that the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod needed to endure a Tribulation Crossing to become an Immortal Artifact, but he hadn’t expected that, instead of facing a heaven tribulation, it would directly receive a baptism!

Since it was a baptism, there certainly would be endless benefits, so he must seize the opportunity to absorb them by running the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture!

Seeing Li Cheng utilize his cultivation technique, the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod didn’t hesitate to infuse the newly refined Immortal Yuan into his body. In an instant, the True Yuan within Li Cheng’s body drastically depleted while the Immortal Yuan surged.

“What’s happening? Is this the phenomenon of an Immortal Artifact coming into existence, transforming into a Heaven and Earth Baptism, and does our sect have someone who has crafted an Immortal Artifact?”

“That’s impossible. Even the Elders from the Immortal World who descended to the Lower World could only craft half-Immortal Artifacts. Such half-Immortal Artifacts could only become Immortal Artifacts in the Immortal World; it’s impossible to create Immortal Artifacts in the Lower World.” “Exactly, but how do we explain what we are seeing now?”

In the Artifact Sect, everyone was staring intently at the expanse of sky above the sea of fire, all wearing expressions of bafflement and confusion.

An Immortal Artifact crafted in the Lower World? Could it be that the Order of Heaven and Earth has changed?

This kind of event happened hundreds of millions of years ago, didn’t it?

At the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, Mu Xingzhi had just gathered the Loose Immortals and high-ranking members who were not in seclusion to discuss how to deal with the imminent stormy issues when suddenly, everyone turned their heads towards the south in unison.

“An Immortal Artifact has come into existence!”

Despite a distance of over three hundred million miles, everyone could still feel the emergence of an Immortal Artifact in the south!

Bai Tieyi was the first to fly into the high skies, staring intently at the south. Even though he couldn’t see anything, he could sense the fluctuations brought by the phenomenon.

Mu Xingzhi and the others followed, each one clicking their tongues in amazement.

“Junior Uncle is moving too fast; we haven’t even started the meeting, and he has already brought such a grand gift to the Artifact Sect!” chuckled Mu Xingzhi.

Bai Tieyi gave Mu Xingzhi a sideways glance. “Are you daft? Your Junior Uncle left less than half an hour ago and is still on the way. This phenomenon happened millions of miles away!”

Mu Xingzhi smiled in an embarrassed yet polite manner, “Uncle Tieyi, Junior Uncle can reach the Artifact Sect in just about thirty steps. This phenomenon must have been triggered by him!”

Bai Tieyi frowned and then turned his gaze to the other Loose Immortals, seeking an answer.

But all the Loose Immortals shook their heads, with Old Bai saying, “We weren’t aware that Li Cheng had learned the Immortal Spirit Step either, but if Mu Xingzhi says so, then it must be right.”

Mu Xingzhi nodded vigorously, “I’m not wrong. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Junior Uncle’s three disciples, they all know.”

Old Bai nodded, “We aren’t doubting you; it’s just that this is too astounding. That’s the Immortal Spirit Step we’re talking about, something even ordinary Immortals cannot master.”

“But Li Cheng, the nephew, is already monstrously astounding. If you told me he had multiple moments of enlightenment, I’d believe you!”

The Loose Immortals also nodded in agreement, having witnessed Li Cheng’s monstrous abilities with their own eyes!

Mu Xingzhi gave a big grin, “Speaking of enlightenment, that’s even more monstrous. Every time I visit the Eighteenth Peak, as long as Junior Uncle is in seclusion, he is in the midst of enlightenment!”

The muscles on the Loose Immortals’ faces twitched involuntarily!

Well now!

Mu Xingzhi is getting too big for his britches, huh?

Closed-door cultivation all for Enlightenment?

Do you think Enlightenment is that simple?

That sort of great opportunity is something you happen upon not something you can seek out. Amongst those here, who hasn’t cultivated for hundreds or thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years?

But with so many people, has anyone experienced Enlightenment?

No!

Not to mention those present here, even if you look across the whole Southern Domain, instances of Enlightenment have only happened once or twice in recent years.

“Mu Xingzhi, you might have misunderstood, we’re talking about Enlightenment, not understanding,” Bai Tieyi reminded him.

Mu Xingzhi cleared his throat with a cough, smiled, and chose not to refute.

Old Bai looked at Mu Xingzhi seriously and smacked his lips, “I believe it. If not for Enlightenment, how could Li Cheng, my fellow disciple, achieve such astonishing proficiency in both the Pill Artifact Array and others?”

Bai Tieyi looked speechlessly at Old Bai, “Uncle Bai, don’t indulge Mu Xingzhi. Ever since this lad became Sect Master, he’s been prone to foolishness!”

“Ahem… Back to the main topic, the emergence of an Immortal Artifact, accompanied by the anomalies of heaven and earth, suggests that it’s a newly refined or altered Immortal Artifact. This situation has already shattered our understanding. What do you all think?” Mu Xingzhi shifted the topic.

“It’s possible that the Artifact Sect has mastered some kind of artifact refining technique that breaks the Order of Heaven and Earth. This is actually a good thing. The Artifact Sect will become the target of numerous powers and might even attract strong figures from the Central Continent. In short, the Artifact Sect is in trouble,” said Bai Tieyi.

The Black and White Elders looked at each other, and Old Bai turned to Bai Tieyi, “Nephew Tieyi, your Black Uncle and 1 have been with the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod for ten thousand years. We’re more than familiar with its aura!”

Bai Tieyi was stunned and pointed to the south, “Uncle Bai, are you saying that the Immortal Artifact that emerged is the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod?”

The Black and White Elders both nodded!

With their affirmation, Bai Tieyi’s eyes gradually widened, “How is that possible? The Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod was refined over fifty thousand years ago. Though it was forged by a predecessor from the Immortal World when they were in the Lower World, it was restrained by heaven and earth and merely a semi-Immortal Artifact!”

“And now, it has become an Immortal Artifact? Refined by my fellow disciple Li Cheng?”

The Elders nodded again, shock evident in their eyes.

Who wouldn’t be shocked? This was a disruption of the Order of Heaven and Earth!

In that case, could Li Cheng actually refine Immortal Artifacts?

By the same logic, Immortal Pills and Immortal Arrays could also be created?

After a long while, as everyone suppressed the shock in their hearts, Mu Xingzhi looked around solemnly, “I feel it’s very necessary to remind everyone in my capacity as Sect Master that those present have all withstood the Heart Inspection Mirror’s test and are the pillars of the sect. You must know, my Junior Uncle’s actions are for the safety of our sect!”

“I hope that everyone will keep the matter of my Junior Uncle being able to modify Immortal Artifacts to themselves, to ensure that all the major powers focus on the Artifact Sect.”

The crowd nodded with solemn expressions, not needing Mu Xingzhi to stress the gravity of the situation; they knew it all too well.

If outsiders knew that it wasn’t the Artifact Sect but Li Cheng who was behind this, then disaster would beckon for the Heavenly Mechanism Sect!

If it came to that, there might not even need to be any covert pushing; the other nine major sects might take the initiative to unite and press the Heavenly Mechanism Sect. A single misstep and the number of sects in the Southern Domain might just dwindle from ten to nine.

“Sect Master, rest assured, this blame can only fall on the Artifact Sect!” Bai Tieyi said, unusually omitting Mu Xingzhi’s name.

Old Bai took over, “Many strong practitioners are heading to the Artifact Sect. Xingzhi, Old Hei and I will also take a look. If we don’t show our faces, it might arouse suspicion.”

Mu Xingzhi bowed, “Thankyou both. I appreciate your effort!”

This was exactly what he wanted because he knew that since his Junior Uncle had gone to the Artifact Sect and even exceeded the task, he must intend to claim that Artifact tripod as well..
