Chapter 662 - 762: Laws, Laws!!
Then Yuan Chu Zhenren asked Tai Chu Zhenren, "What you said makes a lot of sense, but can you guarantee that the Magical Treasure will be successfully refined? If the result of the refining is not as you said, do you know what the consequences will be? The consequence will be that the Evil Daffodil, which is already quite damaged, will be even more damaged. Furthermore, the resources needed to repair this Evil Daffodil will likely double, so can you guarantee that after the Magical Treasure is refined, it will achieve the function you mentioned?"
Upon hearing Tai Chu Zhenren's words, Yuan Chu Zhenren was dumbfounded. He did not realize the consequences were like this, being extremely passionate about Artifact Refining. Yuan Chu Zhenren originally wanted to take this opportunity to see if the legendary Evil Daffodil could be refined into a Magical Treasure. Furthermore, this Evil Daffodil was the sect's hidden treasure; it had never been shown to outsiders, nor had it been mentioned to them.
"This... I can't guarantee this. What I can assure is that I can successfully refine the Magical Treasure. As for whether it will have the Power of Purification after being refined, I can't guarantee that because Artifact Refining is like this. You can't fully guarantee what functions the Magical Treasure will have after being refined. But I can assure the basic functions; I can ensure it has defensive capabilities, even protective ones, and I can add offensive abilities, but I dare not guarantee the Power of Purification. However, if the power on that petal doesn't dissipate, then I can assure you that the Magical Treasure refined using the Evil Daffodil petal will exhibit the function I mentioned," Yuan Chu Zhenren said solemnly.
Through Tai Chu Zhenren's words, Yuan Chu Zhenren knew clearly the consequences if he failed in the refining, but Yuan Chu Zhenren was indeed eager to use the Evil Daffodil to refine a Magical Treasure. Not only because of his passion for Artifact Refining but because he wanted to see if the legendary power, the Power of Purification, could remain on the Magical Treasure.
If it could remain on the Magical Treasure, then is it possible that those virtual, intangible forces could also be preserved on the Magical Treasure through certain techniques and materials? If they could be preserved, it would mean that those intangible forces would from then on become visible and tangible. This would be the biggest revolution in the history of Artifact Refining or even the whole cultivation world.
Why is this said to be the greatest revolution in the history of the cultivation world? Because if those intangible forces could remain on the Magical Treasure, then many other treasures in the future could involve important factors of the Foundation-building world, the Laws.
This means that all cultivators will also have the opportunity to harness the power of laws. Using the laws will make entering the Tai Chu stage no longer difficult, because the basic state of entering the Tai Chu stage is applying the laws. Only after you have encountered the laws can you be eligible to enter the Tai Chu stage.
Legend has it that the Tai Chu stage involves the application of the laws, and battles at the Tai Chu stage are the clashes of two individuals' understandings of the laws. At that point, there are no so-called Technique Immortal Techniques; it all depends on whose understanding of the laws is deeper. Only if your comprehension of the laws suppresses the opponent's can you defeat or even kill them.
Moreover, the Tai Chu stage cannot be defeated by Technique Immortal Techniques, because besides the Power of Laws, no force can harm them. Any Technique Immortal Techniques flying towards them will revert to the original Spiritual Qi and dissipate into the air.
This is because the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi dare not touch those at the Tai Chu stage because they have already accessed laws, and the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi will not dare to touch those at a level higher than them. Thus, those Technique Immortal Techniques flying towards Tai Chu stage individuals will revert to the original Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi because those using these Technique Immortal Techniques convert the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi into their Spiritual Power to release them, and essentially, it is still Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
Therefore, Yuan Chu Zhenren still has a strong desire for this Artifact Refining. After all, if his idea succeeds, then the heads of the sects will have the chance to experience the power of laws in advance, especially Tai Chu Zhenren, which would greatly assist his ascension to the Tai Chu stage. Although today's Tai Chu Zhenren can faintly feel the power of laws thanks to the heart of the Nine-headed Demon Dragon brought back by Ye Tianfan, he is just a step away. But this step seems like a bottomless abyss, leaving him quite helpless.
And if the Power of Purification could allow Tai Chu Zhenren to feel the power of laws, then Tai Chu Zhenren could basically ensure entry into the Tai Chu stage.
After all, if Tai Chu Zhenren could feel the power of laws, he would use this experience to find the power of laws he needed to comprehend. After feeling the power of laws once, Tai Chu Zhenren would remember this sensation and find the laws he needed through this feeling. Although it might be difficult, it would not be as clueless as now.
At that point, it would involve finding one's own Law Power among countless laws, unlike the current quandary of figuring out how to step into the gateway of the Law Power.
"Furthermore, Sect Leader Senior Brother, do you know how great our harvest would be if I succeed in refining?" Yuan Chu Zhenren said.
"Harvest? What kind of harvest could there be? At most, we would just have an additional Magical Treasure with the Power of Purification. What other harvest could there be?" At this moment, Tai Chu Zhenren hadn't thought about laws, not because of any other reason, but simply because he had never considered such a scenario.
After all, regarding laws, Tai Chu Zhenren has only just begun to explore them, and they are still a mystery to him, which is why he never considered laws.
"Laws!" Yuan Chu Zhenren said these two words casually. Then, seeing Tai Chu Zhenren's face change drastically, he continued, "If that Magical Treasure is successfully refined and retains the Power of Purification, we will have the opportunity to encounter laws in advance, which will greatly aid our ascension to the Tai Chu stage!"
