Chapter 964: The Legend of the Space Holy Roc, Refining Extraordinary Sacred Arms
"I merely did what needed to be done," said Jade God without pride, her expression calm as she casually reminded, "also, don't forget the Sky Wind Pearl; it can be used to craft top-tier wind-element Sacred Arms."
"Almost forgot about that!"
Ye Feng produced the Sky Wind Pearl and then took out a dazzling silver feather that was one meter long.
This was the reward from his last mission, the Space Holy Roc Feather.
It contained an abundant amount of the Power of Space and was supreme material for crafting space-related Sacred Arms.
"And the Kunpeng!"
Ye Feng thought of the Kunpeng's corpse; if he combined these three supreme materials, wouldn't that create an incredibly strong Sacred Arms that contained both the power of space and wind elements?
Even if he couldn't use it, he could leave it for his disciples.
"These three materials are truly exquisite!"
Jade God's eyes were filled with surprise. "The Kunpeng itself possesses both wind and space talents. With its carcass as the main material, along with the Sky Wind Pearl and Space Holy Roc Feather, it can be refined into a top-tier Sacred Arms."
"Do you know this is a feather from the Space Holy Roc?" Ye Feng asked Jade God beside him.
Jade God lightly nodded, "Of course, the Space Holy Roc is a famously powerful space mystical creature. With a flap of its wings, it can travel through voids and cross different realms."
"Have you ever seen a living Space Holy Roc?" Ye Feng was extremely curious.
"No," Jade God shook her head.
"These mystical creatures are elusive, like Divine Dragons whose tails are seen but heads are not. Not just me, probably even ordinary Supreme Saints don't get the chance to see them, right?"
"After all, such creatures are adept at hiding."
"As long as they don't want to be seen, it's virtually impossible to spot a Space Holy Roc in this world."
"Also, as far as I know, the Space Holy Roc doesn't seem to belong to the known world, but rather comes from some mysterious space-time fissure that most people can't enter," Jade God mused thoughtfully.
These pieces of information all came to her naturally; she never knew before, but upon seeing the feather from the Space Holy Roc, she understood everything spontaneously.
"Mysterious space-time fissure..."
Ye Feng scratched his head.
He was very interested in this term.
However, since even Jade God didn't know where that place was, he could only momentarily cast the thought aside and focus on the Kunpeng, Space Holy Roc Feather, and Sky Wind Pearl.
"Sect Leader?"
A voice from Gong Qingqiu came from a distance.
Ye Feng put away the three materials and went outside the courtyard where Gong Qingqiu was waiting.
"Elder Gong, what brings you here?"
"Sect Leader, what was that green mist just now?" Gong Qingqiu was quite curious, thinking Ye Feng had perhaps developed a new magical treasure.
"Come in!" Ye Feng waved her over and led Gong Qingqiu to the Spirit Pool, where she saw the transformed Heavenly Dao Green Lotus and Jade God beside Hu Feifei.
Upon seeing this divinely beautiful and pure woman for the first time, Gong Qingqiu immediately felt overshadowed.
"This is Jade God, our Misty Sect's newest guardian spirit, with a Heavenly Saint Cultivation Level. She can be regarded as a Guardian Elder," Ye Feng introduced, pointing at Jade God.
"Heavenly Saint?"
Gong Qingqiu's eyes widened as she thought she had misheard.
"I am Jade God, you must be Elder Gong Qingqiu whom the Sect Leader often praises? I've heard that you have devoted yourself entirely to the Sect, setting an example for our kind," Jade God said softly.
"I am Gong Qingqiu, honored to meet Jade God," Gong Qingqiu quickly bowed, "The Sect Leader flatters me, really, I merely do odds and ends for the Sect."
That's what she said, but Gong Qingqiu felt sweet inside.
She hadn't expected Ye Feng to speak so highly of her to Jade God.
And at the same time, she felt immensely shocked by Jade God's Heavenly Saint Realm Cultivation Level. Across the entire Shenzhou Continent, there were only a handful of Heavenly Saints, enigmatic as Divine Dragons.
The forces with them at their helm could be deemed Shenzhou's dominators.
And now, the Misty Sect actually had a Heavenly Saint too!
How could Gong Qingqiu not be delighted?
At that moment, Ye Feng said,
"We all serve the Sect; there is no hierarchy nor difference in prestige."
"Elder Gong, the green mist that spread over the entire Sect was emitted by the Heavenly Dao Green Lotus after its transformation. It can enhance the disciples' Cultivation Levels, so there's no need to worry."
Hearing these words, Gong Qingqiu turned her gaze to the Heavenly Dao Green Lotus.
From it, she could feel a force as ancient and vast as a Saint's, causing her breath to catch.
"The Purifying Green Lotus has become sanctified?"
Her mouth hung open in shock.
Ye Feng explained,
"Some time ago, I, as Sect Leader, took a trip outside and chanced upon the Jade God, bringing back a Heavenly Path White Lotus."
"Afterwards, the Jade God merged the Heavenly Path White Lotus with the Purifying Green Lotus, transforming it into a Heavenly Dao Green Lotus with infinite potential."
"Its Cultivation Level naturally reached Saint Ascension."
"From now on, with the assistance of the Heavenly Dao Green Lotus, our entire Misty Sect will practice cultivation. Furthermore, with the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree enhancing wisdom, our Sect is bound to thrive unlike ever before."
As he got to this point, Ye Feng was filled with surging emotions.
Up to now, the Misty Sect had also truly set upon the right path, having the foundation to stand toe-to-toe with the top Holy Lands.
Hearing this, Gong Qingqiu felt an exuberant sense of boldness, as if she could slice through thousands of waves and cleave down mountains.
"It's time for me to refine artifacts. For the foreseeable future, I will mostly not be leaving on distant travels," Ye Feng said.
"Your subordinate takes her leave," Gong Qingqiu exited.
Moments later.
In the Sect Leader's Great Hall.
Ye Feng, while brewing Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea, pondered the methods of refinement for three supreme-grade materials: the feathers of the Space Holy Roc, the corpse of the Kunpeng, and the Sky Wind Pearl.
"These three combined are sure to make a speed-focused Sacred Arm."
"However, I don't have high demands for speed."
"The main reason is that I have mastered the Heavenly Venerable Secret Art, Leaping Step, so I hardly require a speed-class Sacred Arm; after all, even the strongest Sacred Arm can hardly surpass the perfection of Leaping Step."
"That being said, this Sacred Arm, once created, is destined for either a disciple or one of the elders."
"Who shall receive it?"
Ye Feng fell into a prolonged silence.
"Forget it. Whomsoever it may be, let's first refine it."
Following his instincts, Ye Feng continued his calculations and finally, after half a day, he arrived at a perfect combination method.
The next step was to begin the refinement.
"Imperial Sky Wings!" Ye Feng said softly, gazing into the sky.
He initiated the Dao Fire to refine the corpse of the Kunpeng.
This was the corpse of a Heavenly Saint-level entity, brimming with the majestic Power of Space, and as Ye Feng refined it, he quickly felt a vast and ethereal aura.
That was the Origin of the Kunpeng.
Crackle and pop!
As the Kunpeng was refined, its colossal body began to compress inward, gradually becoming crystal clear, as if all impurities within were being purified away.
The entire process lasted for three days.
Eventually, the Kunpeng was refined into a glowing crystal the size of a human head, suspended in mid-air.
"Next, is the refinement of the Space Holy Roc feathers," Ye Feng said.
His refinement technique was the same as before, using the Dao Fire to refine the materials to the point where they reached unity with their Origin.
Half a day later.
The feathers of the Space Holy Roc turned into an ocean of feathers, floating around, no longer singular entities, appearing rather strange.
"The Kunpeng turned into a small crystal, while the Space Holy Roc feathers became an ocean, quite the reverse," Ye Feng muttered to himself.
He looked at the Sky Wind Pearl floating nearby and prepared some more refining materials before he proceeded with the refinement.
Only then was the preparation complete.
Next would be the fusion and forging.
Once this Sacred Arm was formed, it was sure to be incredibly powerful.
"Fusion!"
Ye Feng used the Dao Fire to melt the three materials into a silvery liquid prototype, continuously forming complex and profound runes with his fingers.
Boom! Boom!
As the runes entered the prototype, they fused inside it, making it increasingly hard, as if nothing could break it.
