A Rank Nine Lifebound Magic Treasure, it was just short of reaching the level of an Immortal Artifact.
Su Yuan's attention was now focused on the hammer held in the corpse's other hand.
This hammer had reached Rank Nine, just a sliver away from an Immortal Artifact. Originally, it could have advanced to the Immortal Artifact level alongside its master's ascent to the Immortal Realm, but now it had lost the chance to upgrade.
This was a Lifebound Magic Treasure, and it didn't have an artifact spirit inside. However, as time passed, without anyone controlling it, it would slowly nurture an artifact spirit and eventually transform into a Rank Nine Spirit Treasure.
Old Qian swallowed his saliva: "How about I devour this?"
"Can you devour it?" Su Yuan raised his eyebrows.
"I can now, the speed will be a bit slower, but once it starts to develop sentience, I won't be able to refine it! And now is a crucial opportunity that must not be missed, time cannot be delayed for too long. With the potential of a Rank Nine treasure, a wisp of sentience can be nurtured in just a few moments!" Old Qian said hastily.
Su Yuan frowned upon hearing this. Devouring a Rank Nine treasure like this was truly a pity, but currently, he had no way to refine this item. Since that was the case, he could only settle for the next best option!
"Forget it, you devour it!"
Su Yuan nodded.
Old Qian was overjoyed.
The Myriad Treasure Universe Cauldron flew backward, its mouth facing the Rank Nine Lifebound Magic Treasure, and sucked forcefully.
The Rank Nine Thunder Hammer, without a master's control, soared into the air and was sucked into the Myriad Treasure Universe Cauldron.
The Myriad Treasure Universe Cauldron instantly became heavy as a thousand jun, smashing down from mid-air onto the ground, and then smashed straight into the ground below in one go.
"So heavy!" Little Li frowned and said, "Master, should we throw it out?"
"Alright, throw it under Cave Mansion Number Six!" Su Yuan nodded.
Su Li quickly threw the Myriad Treasure Universe Cauldron into the earth veins below the cave mansion.
Old Qian didn't care where he was; he was already fully focused on refining that Rank Nine Magic Treasure!
Meanwhile, Su Yuan was still looking at the Thunder Spirit Giant's corpse, lost in thought.
With a flip of his hand, a scripture appeared out of thin air. On it was written "Secret Transmission of the Seven Absolutes Sect: Record of the Second Primordial Spirit Treasure".
Little Li's eyes widened as she said, "Master, are you perhaps thinking of...?"
Su Yuan looked at the corpse of the Thunder Spirit Giant Elder and said, "That's right, I do want to refine a second Primordial Spirit and then try to see if I can seize control of this Thunder Spirit Giant!"
Little Li gasped, "This... this is a Rank Nine creature!"
Su Yuan smiled slightly: "But he is already dead! And it just so happens that his Soul perished, but his Physical Body is still completely intact!"
Little Li was still extremely shocked. After thinking carefully, she realized that this was actually highly feasible!
Su Yuan activated the [Work-Life Balance] entry and began to quickly comprehend the secret method of the second Primordial Spirit.
This method was extremely difficult, requiring the Soul to be torn in half before a second Primordial Spirit could be nurtured. The process was extremely painful, and if the recovery ability couldn't keep up, it would cause immense damage.
Su Yuan looked at this scripture. The powerful comprehension brought by Work-Life Balance instantly allowed him to obtain an optimized version of the secret method for the second Primordial Spirit!
With a single step, he exited the Cave Heaven Spirit Treasure and arrived inside Cave Mansion Number Six.
In the medicinal field, a Soul Nurturing Wood was growing exceptionally lushly. The Big Dipper in the sky continuously supplied starlight, and under years of cultivation, the Soul Nurturing Wood had already reached Rank Four Lower Grade.
Su Da quickly hurried over.
"Master, is there something wrong with this Soul Nurturing Wood?"
Su Yuan waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, it's been nurtured well!"
As Su Yuan spoke, he reached out and beckoned.
From within the Soul Nurturing Wood, a Soul body identical to Su Yuan floated out.
It possessed a Soul force aura at the Nascent Soul level.
The moment the Soul body was taken out, Su Yuan immediately performed the secret method for the second Primordial Spirit!
Complex secret patterns appeared, directly imprinted onto the Soul body. In just a short while, the second Primordial Spirit was initially refined successfully!
Su Yuan's consciousness split in two out of thin air, gaining two perspectives: one from his main body, and one from the Soul body in his hand.
The sleeping Soul body awakened, opened its eyes, and met the gaze of Su Yuan's main body.
Both the main body and the second Primordial Spirit smiled simultaneously.
"I didn't expect that the wisp of Soul I left in the Soul Nurturing Wood before, after years of nurturing, has already formed a complete Soul body. With a little refinement, it became my second Primordial Spirit! This is because this Soul body originally belonged to me!"
Su Yuan sighed, then drew out another wisp of Soul from his main body and injected it into the Soul Nurturing Wood.
He instructed: "Su Da, continue to cultivate it. This is a life of mine, Master. You must not slack off. This task is very important, I hope you understand!"
Su Da's expression became invigorated upon hearing this: "Master, I swear to defend the Soul Nurturing Wood with my life!"
Su Yuan smiled upon hearing this. The Soul Nurturing Wood had always been right under his nose, so he wasn't worried about its safety. As for Su Da, he had just given the other party a reason to realize their self-worth.
Su Yuan nodded and returned to the Cave Heaven Spirit Treasure in one step.
Su Yuan sent the second Primordial Spirit into his Dantian and then began to raise its Realm.
His own magic power and the energy fed back by Little Cai were all injected into the second Primordial Spirit one by one.
The second Primordial Spirit quickly transformed into a Nascent Soul body, and then began to transform towards a Primordial Spirit body.
"The secret method says that the second Primordial Spirit cannot raise its Realm on its own. Why is that?"
"If one seizes control of another body, and that body itself has a high Realm, will it still affect the second Primordial Spirit's advancement?"
It is common knowledge in the cultivation world that it is difficult for a second Primordial Spirit to raise its Realm, but the real reason behind it is something no one pays attention to, or rather, ordinary Cultivators have no way to uncover the reason.
Instead, Su Yuan developed a hint of interest. This could be a topic for future research.
When Su Yuan had just read the secret method for the second Primordial Spirit, he noticed that the second Primordial Spirit had the drawback of being difficult to raise its Realm.
Although he didn't find a solution to this problem while in the entry state, he discovered that if the seized body's Realm was very high, it wouldn't affect the second Primordial Spirit from reaching the body's original Realm.
And Su Yuan now had a perfect body for seizing control right in front of him, a body that was almost an immortal's. Didn't this mean the second Primordial Spirit could keep advancing until before the Immortal Realm?
Half a day later, the second Primordial Spirit also reached the Primordial Spirit level under the massive supply of magic power.
Then Su Yuan took a deep breath, his second Primordial Spirit emerged from his body, and with one step, it arrived above the Thunder Spirit Giant Elder's Thunder Source Core.
Then Su Yuan's second Primordial Spirit plunged into it headfirst.
The powerful physical defense, however, could not block the invasion from the Soul level.
The second Primordial Spirit smoothly entered the interior of the Thunder Source Core.
Then he began to merge with the Thunder Source Core.
The merging process was unexpectedly smooth.
The original Soul had been completely cleansed by the Rank Eight demonic Cultivators, not even a trace was left behind. Su Yuan's action of the cuckoo occupying the magpie's nest proceeded very smoothly.
At a certain moment, Su Yuan's consciousness successfully took over the body of the Thunder Spirit Giant Elder.
The colossal Thunder Spirit Giant's finger moved slightly, and then there was nothing more.
Su Yuan's main body revealed a trace of an awkward smile: "It succeeded, but the Physical Body is too strong. The Primordial Spirit still needs time to slowly adapt!"
Su Yuan could clearly sense that the second Primordial Spirit was advancing at an astonishing speed!
The Thunder Spirit Giant's energy was providing ample nourishment for his second Primordial Spirit!
Another half day passed.
The Thunder Spirit Giant finally slowly stood up!
Su Yuan felt his powerful physique, and bright light shone in his eyes!
"The energy inside my body is severely depleted!" Su Yuan immediately sensed a strong feeling of hunger.
After successive great battles, this body had already become extremely depleted.
Su Yuan suddenly thought of something. His consciousness instantly crossed an extremely long distance and saw that on the sea surface, Elder Lei Yan was still running frantically!
The sea of thunder above his head was still gradually descending and was getting closer to the sea surface!
Countless living beings were fleeing for their lives!
But the range of the Sea of Thunder was too vast, and dangers were everywhere. The speed at which the living beings fled simply couldn't escape the confines of the Sea of Thunder!
Su Yuan's eyes lit up upon seeing this: "Isn't this a great opportunity to replenish energy!"
Su Yuan's mind stirred, and [Mind Resonance] was activated.
The next moment, a part of his consciousness appeared on Immortal Yuan Realm - Dragon Transformation Island.
He saw seven True Dragons bitterly calculating the laws of the Big Dipper's movement, their dragon faces filled with expressions of despair.
"Master, why are you teaching us this stuff? Can't we just eat, sleep, sleep, and eat to raise our Realm?" A True Dragon asked, unable to understand.
Little Thirty-Six knocked him on the head: "Idiot, doing that will only make you a slave to power. A True Dragon who cannot control power is not a good student!"
"Oh..."
That True Dragon pulled out five dragon claws and continuously calculated while staring at the Big Dipper in the sky. As he calculated, he fell asleep with his eyes open.
Su Yuan watched the seven little True Dragons, who collectively fell asleep shortly after, speechless for a second.
Following that, [World Traveler] was activated!
In an instant, a colossal Thunder Spirit Giant body appeared out of thin air above Dragon Transformation Island!
A terrifying Rank Nine pressure was released, instantly startling the seven True Dragons awake.
"Master, help!"
"They're killing dragons! They're killing dragons!"
"Wah!"
The seven True Dragons yelled and screamed.
Su Yuan also ignored these seven little ones and activated [World Traveler] again in an instant.
The Thunder Spirit Giant Clone instantly vanished.
However, just at the next moment.
A sky-covering dragon claw appeared out of thin air and swiftly grabbed towards the Thunder Spirit Giant's original position.
Only, Su Yuan activated [World Traveler] in time and ran away!
A portion of Su Yuan's consciousness left here saw this scene, and his consciousness suddenly trembled.
The next moment.
A colossal dragon head extended from the clouds. The dragon head was several li high, and a dragon body hundreds of li long stretched within the clouds, faintly visible!
This was in the Immortal Realm. To achieve such a massive body here meant that this dragon was extremely extraordinary!
"Hmm?" A light exclamation came from the dragon head.
Clearly, this Dragon Race mighty being hadn't expected that there would be an existence that could escape his dragon claw.
"A minor race like the Thunder Spirit Giants dares to cause trouble on my Dragon Race's Dragon Transformation Island?"
The Dragon Race mighty being snorted coldly, his gaze icy as he said, "A mere Heavenly Immortal minor race. I will destroy half of your clansmen as a warning to others!"
His dragon claw reached out through the void, seemingly crossing an endless distance, and fiercely swatted downwards.
When his dragon claw retracted, it had already grabbed back countless pieces of Thunder Source Cores.
The Dragon Race mighty being put these Thunder Source Cores into his mouth and chewed a few times, a satisfied expression appearing on his face: "The taste is good."
