Chapter 870: Chapter 870: Upgrading the Dao Artifact’s Grade
Looking at the increasingly powerful Divine Blue Netherworld Fire, Zhu Fei felt a surge of joy in his heart.
He knew that his Divine Blue Netherworld Fire had already ascended to the fourth rank in the heavenly fire ranking.
Although the Divine Blue Netherworld Fire had not yet reached the top three, its power was already satisfactory to Zhu Fei.
He believed that with the current capability of the Divine Blue Netherworld Fire, melting ordinary Immortal realm refining materials would pose no problem, though high-level materials might still be challenging.
After all, Skyfire level flames are considered top-tier in the Cultivation World.
However, once in the Immortal Realm, ordinary Skyfire flames are not particularly remarkable.
In fact, some lower-ranked Skyfire flames can’t even melt the most ordinary Immortal refining materials.
Imagine the role of a Skyfire flame that can’t even melt the most basic refining materials in the Immortal Realm?
But Zhu Fei’s Divine Blue Netherworld Fire was different; its fourth ranking among Skyfire levels was enough to secure a place among the various flames in the Immortal Realm.
With this in mind, Zhu Fei did not delay and promptly retrieved the Star Dream Crescent Moon Sword, the Soul-soothing Bell, and two Starlight Crystals from himself.
Indeed, Zhu Fei’s next task was to use the Starlight Crystals to upgrade his Star Dream Crescent Moon Sword and the Soul-soothing Bell to the top-grade Dao artifact level.
Back when he subdued the Soul-soothing Bell, Zhu Fei promised it so.
As long as his conditions allowed, ensuring his own life-bound Dao artifact level, he would first consider upgrading the Soul-soothing Bell’s level.
Now, Zhu Fei nearly reached the time to fulfill his promise.
"Sect Master, you truly did not disappoint me. I thank you now."
Then, an elder’s phantom suddenly appeared on the surface of the Soul-soothing Bell.
His expression was slightly excited as he gratefully spoke to Zhu Fei.
Zhu Fei smiled gently, "It’s nothing. As I promised, wait a moment. After upgrading this sword, I will upgrade you immediately."
Having said this, Zhu Fei said no more and extended his hand. A pale blue flame wrapped around one of the Starlight Crystals.
According to the Artifact Refining Skill from the Spell Light Device Upgrade Skill, Zhu Fei continually infused spells into the Star Dream Crescent Moon Sword.
Then, he raised his palm, integrating the fully melted Starlight Crystal into the Sword’s body according to the Artifact Refining Method.
As the Artifact Refining Skills accumulated, the fusion of the Starlight Crystal and the Star Dream Crescent Moon Sword reached its final stage.
About two hours later, the entire Star Dream Crescent Moon Sword suddenly erupted with a peculiar dark green ripple.
A force as if to penetrate the heavens suddenly burst forth from the sword.
With a "whoosh," before the cultivation chamber was completely enveloped by the Heavenly Tribulation, the Star Dream Crescent Moon Sword flew out of its own accord.
After some time, when the Star Dream Crescent Moon Sword returned, the fluctuations on its blade had unmistakably reached the top-grade Dao artifact level!
Zhu Fei grabbed the Star Dream Crescent Moon Sword, viewing his life-bound flying sword with delight and excitement.
From it, Zhu Fei could distinctly feel the current strength of the Star Dream Crescent Moon Sword.
He believed that if he were to confront the Illusion Demon Monarch and others now, he could easily defeat them without even utilizing his domain.
"Congratulations to the Sect Master on successfully refining your own life-bound top-grade Dao artifact."
At this moment, the Contract Spirit of the Soul-soothing Bell, who had been watching Zhu Fei’s actions the entire time, finally smiled broadly and bowed to Zhu Fei.
Zhu Fei stored the Star Dream Crescent Moon Sword, then looked at the Soul-soothing Bell and smiled slightly, "Thank you, Elder Zhong. Next, I’ll upgrade your level."
As he spoke, the Divine Blue Netherworld Fire in Zhu Fei’s palm emerged again, instantly enveloping the other Starlight Crystal.
...
Central State, at the former entrance to the Central Wilderness.
At this moment, more than ten Great Success Earth Immortals had already gathered in this void.
Each of them was almost a core figure in the contemporary nine-grade sects, especially Zhu Fei’s avatar, Zhai Xing Monarch, the master of Xuanyuan Tower, and Elder Qiankun, the Great Elder of Wantong Commerce, were the most distinguished.
However, all of these people wore solemn expressions, and some even had unconcealed worry between their brows.
Because just now, terrifying black demonic energy suddenly erupted from within the originally quiet blood-red passage swirl.
Though, with the combined suppression of Zhu Fei and others, the black demonic energy did not immediately break free.
The pressure it brought upon everyone was unparalleled.
After all, everyone present wasn’t ’fools’; they had all heard of the black demonic energy that appeared in the Central Wilderness before.
Many, like Zhu Fei, had experienced the terrifying nature of the black demonic energy personally.
Thus, everyone had gathered for a month, aiming to discuss a solution to the current situation in the Central Wilderness.
"Mr. Qiankun, I’ve heard you’re approaching the cultivation level of a half-step Immortal Array Master. Do you have any good methods to seal this blood-red passage swirl?"
At this moment, a young man named Cao Chen, dressed in blue, with a handsome appearance, suddenly cupped his fist and respectfully addressed Elder Qiankun, the Great Elder of Wantong Commerce.
This person was the Sect Master of the Ninth Grade Feixuan Sect, with late-stage Great Success cultivation, somewhat distinguished among these people.
However, his words did not garner much attention or agreement.
Elder Qiankun glanced at Cao Chen indifferently, then slightly shook his head and said, "Unless it’s a true Immortal Array Master, it’s impossible to completely seal this entrance."
After a pause, Elder Qiankun continued, "At least with my array cultivation, achieving that is far from possible. What does Master Zhu think?"
Saying this, Elder Qiankun’s gaze fell directly upon Zhu Fei.
The usually indifferent face of Elder Qiankun finally revealed a faint smile at this moment.
As the Great Elder of Wantong Commerce, Elder Qiankun was well aware of the relationship between Zhu Fei and Long Mengdie.
Hence, when facing Zhu Fei, he dared not put on any airs.
In truth, ever since the news spread of Zhu Fei single-handedly destroying Qinghai Immortal Island, no one on the Xuanhuang Continent dared to underestimate Zhu Fei.
Even though only an avatar of Zhu Fei had come over, it was no exception.
