Chapter 545 - Treasures of a Hundred Thousand Years [True]
What He Yiming entered was a massive hall!
This hall was, astonishingly, a place to store treasures.
Although most of the hall was now empty, it was unclear if it had always been that way or if the sea clan's ancestors had taken things away.
Nonetheless, several sky-defying treasures remained, and they were likely treasures that had been stored for over a hundred thousand years!
The first thing He Yiming saw was a few square meters of soil suspended in the void.
Yes, soil.
However, this soil was firmly sealed by a massive formation!
Even through the seal, He Yiming could sense an overwhelmingly profound aura!
An aura that gave birth to all things!
More importantly, He Yiming could actually feel his own Qing Emperor's Immortal Physique, which had already reached the pinnacle of the Heavenly Dan Realm Great Perfection, stirring restlessly. Originally, it could be said that his Qing Emperor's Immortal Physique had reached the Heavenly Dan Realm Great Perfection!
Yet, it had begun to show faint signs of improvement once again!
His Qing Emperor's Immortal Physique had already reached the ultimate level of the Heavenly Dan Realm!
But the brown soil before him, separated by the sealing formation, emitted traces of aura that could elevate his Qing Emperor's Immortal Physique realm!
What kind of heaven-defying existence was this?
Could it be...
Was it recorded in the jade slip given by Master Wang Yue...
Soil of Existence?
He Yiming wasn't certain, but this brown soil definitely had an intricate connection with the Soil of Existence!
For now, let's call it the Pseudo Soil of Existence.
"Break!!!" He Yiming raised his hand, the Grand Accomplishment Formation Intent surging. With a flick of his hand, he struck the sole weak point of this sealing formation.
"Bang!" This was at least a defensive formation of Grade Six or higher, and it collapsed instantly!
He Yiming didn't know which powerful being had laid down this defensive formation, but this formation had existed for at least a hundred thousand years. Even so, it still maintained the power of a nearly Grade Six defensive formation!
If it weren't for He Yiming possessing Formation Books, mastering the Essence of Formations, and having attained the Grand Accomplishment level in Formation Intent, coupled with the fact that this defensive formation was already quite tattered, it wouldn't have been so easily shattered!
As the sealing formation broke, He Yiming extended his hand and collected this large piece of Pseudo Soil of Existence into his Five Elements Small World.
"Wow!" Jin Chachacha witnessed this scene and was left dumbfounded.
This soil was definitely a treasure, but countless sea clan ancestors had exhausted all means to decipher the sealing formation without success!
He hadn't expected this human to break it in seconds?
Who exactly was this human?
Jin Chachacha had some dubious thoughts before, but now he was so scared he didn't dare think any further.
"This Pseudo Soil of Existence is an absolutely heaven-defying treasure! It's so useful for me. If I take out a portion and set it up properly, it can allow players to continuously absorb its aura, rapidly advancing the realm of the Qing Emperor's Immortal Physique!" He Yiming thought to himself in secret.
So, He Yiming's gaze shifted, and he looked at the second treasure.
It was a crystal of ice the size of a fist, suspended in the void. There were no defensive or sealing formations around it.
But waves of extreme cold spread from it!
"Ten Thousand Years Frigid Ice!" He Yiming's thought moved.
With one step, he approached the Ten Thousand Years Frigid Ice. Extending his hand, he grabbed hold of it.
"Splash!" In the next moment, He Yiming was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture!
The chilling aura of the Ten Thousand Years Frigid Ice was truly heaven-defying!
However...
"Bang!" He Yiming's body trembled, and he shattered the cold energy entirely!
"It seems to be genuine Ten Thousand Years Frigid Ice!" He Yiming held the piece of Ten Thousand Years Frigid Ice in his hand and slowly spoke.
Ordinary Heavenly Dan Realm cultivators truly wouldn't be able to endure the power of the Ten Thousand Years Frigid Ice! Even though it was called Ten Thousand Years Frigid Ice, it was, in fact, a virtual number.
This piece of Ten Thousand Years Frigid Ice had likely existed for ten thousand years, tens of thousands of years, or even hundreds of thousands of years before being brought into this hall!
The accumulated cold energy on it was absolutely terrifying!
Only He Yiming, who had profound cultivation and possessed the Qing Emperor's Immortal Physique divine body, could firmly suppress it.
"I can absorb the original aura of the Ten Thousand Years Frigid Ice from it and refine it into my own power! Yes, I can refine most of it. I can also give a small portion to the players if I arrange it properly!" He Yiming thought in secret, unable to help but admire, "Very well!"
So he put away the Ten Thousand Years Frigid Ice and turned to the third treasure.
"What is this..." He Yiming's expression froze.
Before him was a black iron block, towering seven meters high. Waves of heavy and immovable aura radiated from it.
Dark Abyss Profound Iron.
It wasn't from the Three Thousand Worlds but came from other alien realms.
The toughness of the Dark Abyss Profound Iron was ranked in the top ten of the Three Thousand Worlds!
How tough was it?
Even flames under heavenly fires couldn't refine it even the slightest bit!
In other words, even if one were a Yuan Infant Realm expert, they would be helpless against Dark Abyss Profound Iron. They could only hold it as a collectible, completely unable to refine it.
However, with a heavenly fire-level flame, it could be melted and refined into extremely remarkable tools!
That is...
Heavenly Artifact!
What was a Heavenly Artifact?
Unlike Earthly Artifacts, Heavenly Artifacts had no concept of grade or gaps.
Because every Heavenly Artifact had spirit!
As the owner's strength grew and they gained various opportunities, Heavenly Artifacts could evolve!
Just like heavenly fire!
As owners used Heavenly Artifacts, they could continuously improve them!
When a Heavenly Artifact truly birthed its spirit and integrated with its owner's spirit, with a huge opportunity, it could possibly evolve into a new existence!
Imperial Artifact!
Comparable to the power of Great Emperor level!
But Heavenly Artifacts were incredibly difficult to refine!
Just the materials alone had confounded countless people!
A material like the Dark Abyss Profound Iron, known as a Spirit Grade material, had the potential to be refined into a Heavenly Artifact!
General metal spirit materials, no matter how high their grade, were impossible to possess spirit even with heavenly fire. No matter how they were crafted or refined, they couldn't develop spirit, so they couldn't grow with their owners.
They were even more unlikely to be on par with true Heavenly Artifacts!
But...
Don't think Heavenly Artifacts are truly invincible!
There's no strongest Heavenly Artifact, only the most suitable one!
Heavenly Artifacts could evolve, but they could only grow with suitable owners!
If the compatibility was poor, the Heavenly Artifact couldn't grow. No matter how many years passed, there would be no improvement.
"Good! A great item!" He Yiming waved his hand and collected the Dark Abyss Profound Iron.
Once he was finished refining so much Dark Abyss Profound Iron, he could refine several Heavenly Artifacts for the players!
Whether players were compatible with the Heavenly Artifacts depended on their luck!
Because perhaps at that time, players didn't choose the Heavenly Artifacts!
