Chapter 485 - 14: Forging the Seven Star Sword, Toad Becoming the Moon
Preorient, load materials, seal the furnace, ignite the fire, calcine, smelt, synthesize, open the furnace...
For Li Boyang nowadays, alchemy and artifact refining have long become second nature.
Especially with the power of the Eight Trigrams Furnace and Samadhi True Fire, processes that originally required a long time to melt materials can now be completed within a few breaths.
So when Li Boyang slowly drew out the newly forged treasure sword from the Eight Trigrams Furnace.
The ever-curious Xiluo almost immediately came over to look at this newly out-of-the-furnace long sword.
—The sword is three feet three inches long, with a straight blade and a reverse-hilt.
Even just being drawn from the furnace, without any quenching, its cold glint already made people feel a chill down their spines.
Particularly noteworthy is that on this sword’s blade, seven copper coins resembling rivets are clearly visible, forming the shape of the Beidou Seven Stars.
At the same time, inscribed on these seven copper coins are the fourteen characters "Gluttonous Wolf, Giant Gate, Lucun, Wenqu, Lianzhen, Wuqu, Pojun," displaying a truly menacing presence.
"Such strong Evil Qi!"
The fact that even the well-informed Xiluo uttered these words is enough to show the uniqueness of this treasure sword.
More outrageous is that the Evil Qi on this treasure sword is not just of one type.
The interwoven seven types of Evil Qi from the same source are even more terrifying than the earlier Beidou Seven Stars Array.
"The Stars of the Celestial Sphere are nearly infinite, among which there are 365 principal stars, and 48,000 Evil Stars..."
"Yet these Beidou Seven Stars are the ones most filled with Evil Qi, potentially dominating the land’s calamities in the future."
"The ’Seven-Star Sword’ forged from these seven Evil Stars is naturally full of Evil Qi."
Fingertips blooming Sword Aura, exhaling Cold Qi...
After quenching this Seven-Star Sword with his own Sword Qi and Gang Qi, Li Boyang’s voice appeared exceptionally calm.
As for the three-legged Golden Toad pretending to be dead at his feet?
At this moment, even it couldn’t pretend any longer, dumbfoundedly looking up at the treasure sword emitting endless coldness and Evil Qi.
If not seen with its own eyes, the three-legged Golden Toad wouldn’t believe that this murderous divine artifact was forged from its own seven copper coins.
But before the three-legged Golden Toad could recover from its shock.
Li Boyang suddenly swung his sword skyward, a terrifying Sword Qi rose to the sky as if to sever the starry river.
The originally empty sky was instantly filled with sword light.
As brilliant and striking as the myriad stars in the external world.
Slightly squinting his eyes, before Xiluo could ask, Li Boyang flung the Seven-Star Treasure Sword in his hand into the sky once more.
Like a wandering dragon, like a meteor...
The seven copper coins on the Seven-Star Treasure Sword transformed into the Beidou Seven Stars, soaring upward against the current.
During this process, those seven copper coins continuously enlarged and distanced, instantly becoming seven stars over a thousand zhang in diameter.
Though still not a match for the real Beidou Seven Stars, their grand thousand-zhang diameter was definitely not decorative.
"This is the true Beidou Seven Stars Array!"
Li Boyang’s voice resounded in the ears of the three-legged Golden Toad, startling it awake.
Upon closer inspection, those seven stars, each over a thousand zhang, indeed formed the Beidou Seven Stars Array, albeit using the starry sky as the array itself.
The sky of [Cloud Dream Jade Pool Mirror] serves as the array map, the seven stars over a thousand zhang are the array eyes, and the Seven-Star Treasure Sword is the central control of the entire array.
As the Beidou Seven Stars quietly operated, it could also induce the myriad sword-light stars.",
Looking around, even Xiluo dared not claim to retreat safely through that colorful sword-light star field.
So the question arises, why did Li Boyang lay out this grand array?
"What do you intend this time?"
Clearly not only Xiluo thought of this, but even the three-legged Golden Toad at Li Boyang’s feet began to tremble.
Seeing this, Li Boyang’s smile became even more radiant.
"Don’t you feel something is missing from this night sky?"
Before his voice faded, with a light touch of his fingertip, the pretending-dead three-legged Golden Toad on the ground automatically flew upward.
"Croak! Croak!"
At this moment, the three-legged Golden Toad hastily cried out, as if pleading.
After being beaten repeatedly by both Xiluo and Li Boyang, the three-legged Golden Toad clearly realized who the real master was.
The hostility from its birth, the displeasure of having its Emperor’s Liquid seized and monopolized, was completely replaced by an unknown fear.
Unfortunately, Li Boyang was evidently not moved by mere pleading.
As he unfolded the [Qiankun Ring] once more, the three-legged Golden Toad was directly thrown into the deep space.
Located at the core of the Beidou Seven Stars Array, covered and enveloped by starlight.
If [Cloud Dream Jade Pool Mirror] had a Taiyang, that position would undoubtedly be reserved for the Taiyang only.
But as [Cloud Dream Jade Pool Mirror] lacks a Taiyang, having multiple moons is almost as good.
Buzz, buzz, buzz...
With the golden ring continually contracting.
The three-legged Golden Toad also felt unprecedented pressure.
Especially when those densely packed proverb talismans appeared and extended, the Beidou Seven Stars Array began to spin accordingly.
During this process, an invisible pull centered on the three-legged Golden Toad surged forth, voraciously absorbing all matter in the star field.
Whether tangible or intangible...
In the blink of an eye, a gigantic sphere was born amid the wailing of the three-legged Golden Toad.
Boom!
Even though it was located deep in the star field, from the ground it appeared much larger than the Beidou Seven Stars.
This newly born moon was like a gigantic transit station, continually absorbing the surrounding Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, then transforming it into Moonlight Essence Qi to drench the earth.
"This?"
Xiluo’s pupils suddenly contracted in shock as she gazed in disbelief at the silver threads descending from the starry sky.
That was the physical manifestation of Moonlight Essence Qi—Emperor’s Liquid.
Compared to the external Emperor’s Liquid, these current Emperor’s Liquid seemed to have distinct attribute biases, not just any lifeform could absorb them at will.
Only those nascent and unformed beings could perfectly absorb the spirituality nurtured within these Emperor’s Liquid, thus possessing intelligence far surpassing others of their kind.
"There are fifteen aspects of the moon, this is the Full Moon Aspect."
At this point, Li Boyang smiled and took the initiative to speak.
"The Emperor’s Liquid under the Full Moon Aspect primarily serves to awaken intelligence and enhance wisdom."
"Though its functionality is just one-fifteenth of the external Emperor’s Liquid, it is the most suitable specialized Emperor’s Liquid for this realm."
"Perhaps soon, this ’Cloud Dream Jade Pool Mirror’ will give birth to new life forms."
"Whether they are transformations of flora or manifestations of Primordial Qi, without exception they will possess abundant intelligence as they are born."
"Most importantly, this is one of the fifteen moon aspects possessed by the Pathfinder who attains enlightenment through the moon, equivalent to one-fifteenth of the Moon God’s authority."
