Chapter 131: The Birth of the Great Dipper Star God

“I wish to ask the Daoist to forge a magical treasure for me, one with the strongest offensive power!”

A faint, peculiar glint flashed in Ziyu’s eyes.

Lin Yuan furrowed his brows and glanced at Ziyu.

“This girl…”

A flicker of emotion passed through Lin Yuan’s gaze as he spoke calmly.

“Wanting the strongest treasure is fine, but I must say this upfront—it all depends on the quality of the spiritual materials you’ve prepared!”

“Is this enough?”

Ziyu’s bright eyes fixed on Lin Yuan as she retrieved an item from the Hundred Treasures Pouch at her chest, holding it in her hands.

It was a peculiar divine wood.

Utterly pitch-black, yet it emanated an eerie and terrifying aura. Even Lin Yuan couldn’t help his eyebrows from twitching fiercely upon seeing it; it felt as if the Innocent True Infant was being sucked out.

Extremely sinister.

As if remembering something, Lin Yuan looked at Ziyu with a slightly cold expression. “Is this the Soul-Snatching Wood from the Qian Tian Shan valley?”

“How did you get it? Have you lost your mind!” For the first time, a trace of anger appeared on Lin Yuan’s face.

Soul-Snatching Wood was an incredible Acquired strange wood, a rare type of Acquired divine wood that could rival some Innate Spiritual Roots.

Its preciousness was beyond doubt.

However, this thing grew in the deepest, most secluded part of Tian Lang Mountain, where there was a Netherworld fissure.

Many from the Yao Clan and Wu Cultivators had coveted it, but all were killed by its guardian, a fierce and malevolent Qiongqi.

That being was at least at the Heavenly Capital realm.

Lin Yuan found it hard to believe how Ziyu had managed to steal it.

“Never mind how I got it. Can you forge it or not?” Ziyu remained calm from start to finish.

Hearing this, Lin Yuan casually tossed the Soul-Snatching Wood back to the girl and snorted.

“Then find someone else!”

“Fine, I’ll go find someone else. I remember there’s a cultivator in the Sangzu Tribe skilled in artifact forging!” she said plainly, gripping the Soul-Snatching Wood and turning to leave.

“Halt!”

A cold voice came from behind. The girl’s footsteps paused. Lin Yuan stared coldly at her, took back the Soul-Snatching Wood, and said sharply,

“Ziyu, I know you’ve been close to Xuan Yu since childhood. Sometimes having courage is good, but you must also treasure your own life!”

“As long as you are alive, anything is possible. If you lose your life, not only can you not take revenge, but you might even make your enemies bolder!”

“Daoist, what are you talking about?” Ziyu tilted her head, looking at Lin Yuan with a surprised expression. “That wolf demon is already dead. I merely wish to leave a legacy treasure for the tribe!”

Lin Yuan’s expression didn’t change. He gave Ziyu a cold look. Since the girl had made up her mind, he didn’t try to persuade her further. He simply sat down right there and began forging the treasure.

As for any missing spiritual objects or materials, Lin Yuan didn’t hold back, directly taking what he needed from the storehouse.

Seeing this, a faint, peculiar light flickered in Ziyu’s beautiful eyes, and her expression returned to its usual composure.

Forging magical treasures was second nature to Lin Yuan now.

Over the years in the Primordial World, he had wasted countless materials; it was a forging technique built purely by piling up vast amounts of spiritual materials and objects.

His forging skills had long since reached a state of perfection; calling them divine craftsmanship was no exaggeration.

One by one, high-quality spiritual objects and materials were refined and integrated into the Soul-Snatching Wood.

Lin Yuan’s technique was extremely skilled, his control over the fearsome Sui Fire meticulous and precise.

Gradually, the spiritual light emanating from the Soul-Snatching Wood began to recede, making it look like an ordinary black ink-jade staff.

However, Ziyu’s gaze at Lin Yuan grew increasingly strange. When the treasure gave a soft hum upon completion, Ziyu’s clear, black-and-white eyes looked at Lin Yuan, and she said plainly,

“Are you doing this on purpose?”

By now, the girl’s delicate willow-leaf eyebrows were slowly rising.

This was definitely revenge.

What female cultivator used a cane-like magical treasure?

Lin Yuan turned and sat down, ignoring the girl. His gaze fell upon the five peculiar objects containing Yin and Yang energy.

A flicker passed through Lin Yuan’s eyes. He released his Life-Bound Treasure, the Primordial Yin-Yang Qiankun Diagram, instantly enveloping and devouring the five strange objects. Innate Yin-Yang power flowed, beginning to break them down and absorb their Yin-Yang mysteries.

Seeing Lin Yuan still ignoring her, the girl’s exquisite face turned, settling on the staff in her hand. With just a slight infusion of her magic power to refine it, her heart trembled.

This Soul-Snatching Staff was far more marvelous than imagined. Not only was its power formidable, it seemed to be alive, retaining a wisp of vitality from the Soul-Snatching Wood, allowing it to continuously devour ghostly beings to enhance the staff’s power.

This forging method was nothing short of divine workmanship.

Ziyu quietly glanced at Lin Yuan, who was intently refining the Yin-Yang objects, her beautiful eyes shimmering with thoughts.

Among the tribes of the Human Race, artifact forgers with such vision and skill were absolutely few and far between.

Her delicate hand gently stroked the Soul-Snatching Staff, as if it carried a distinct warmth that was particularly endearing. She quietly turned and left the storehouse.

At that moment, Lin Yuan was fully immersed in refining his Life-Bound Treasure.

Those five objects were no ordinary Yin-Yang attribute spiritual items.

After refining the Yin-Yang Tail Feather, the Yin-Yang Magnetic Ore, and the Yin-Yang Spirit Pearl, the Primordial Yin-Yang Qiankun Diagram immediately underwent several transformations.

A profoundly mysterious black-and-white light shimmered on the Yin-Yang Diagram. It had generated its fifth layer of Innate Dao Restriction, officially stepping into the Scattered Immortal level.

This Life-Bound Treasure’s power had advanced a step further.

The changes continued.

As it devoured the other three Yin-Yang objects, the Primordial Yin-Yang Qiankun Diagram quickly developed its sixth layer of Innate Restriction.

Lin Yuan could sense that the Primordial Yin-Yang Qiankun Diagram had become several times more profound.

Obtaining these five items from the Xuangui Tribe greatly encouraged Lin Yuan. Leaving the Xuangui Tribe’s temple, Lin Yuan planned to press on, visiting other tribes to spread word, seeking to purchase Yin-Yang objects or information about them.

But not long after leaving the Xuangui Tribe,

Lin Yuan suddenly halted his steps. He looked up at the sky, his keen Innate Spiritual Awareness faintly perceiving an invisible tremor in the void.

Just then, the world abruptly changed.

In the sky above, three hundred and sixty-five stars suddenly shone with brilliant light simultaneously.

Streaks of starlight poured the vast power of the stars into the Primordial World like rain.

Purple Qi spread across the Nine Heavens.

At that moment, countless members of the Yao Clan benefited for a lifetime from this frenzy of star power.

Lin Yuan did not actively absorb the abundant star power. Through the power of Purple Star Astrology, he could clearly perceive that within the Big Dipper, several stars were shining exceptionally brightly now.

The Nine Stars of the Dipper!

Ziwei, Gouchen, Jumen, Wenqu, Lianzhen, Martial Star! Six stars had been born!

This meant the birth of a part of this generation’s second Heavenly Emperor!

Lin Yuan felt a twinge of envy. They too were Innate Divine Demons, but looking at the extraordinary phenomena accompanying these Innate Divine Demons’ births, their innate talents were vastly stronger than ordinary ones, let alone compared to someone like him, who was at the very bottom among Innate Divine Demons.

However, Lin Yuan wasn’t discouraged either. Even a bottom-tier Innate Divine Demon was still an Innate Divine Demon. Through his efforts, his future achievements would not be inferior to these top-tier Innate Divine Demons.
