Chapter 229: Refining with Magnetic Power

The roots of the innate money tree were densely covered in hair. The hair was also part of the roots. They penetrated the body of the Grade 3 red-eye raven, and in an instant, the raven was reduced to dust.

Borrowing from the Supreme Sky Master’s perspective, Chen Jingzhai saw that two brand new coins had formed on the innate money tree. One was the bloodline coin, and the other was the magnetic coin.

As the innate money tree absorbed more and more magnetic power, the number of magnetic coins on the tree increased as well. As a result, the number of magnetic coins not only doubled or increased by tenfold; instead, it multiplied by a hundredfold.

Chen Jingzhai grinned when he saw this. He waved his hand and collected the soul remnant of the Grade 3 red-eye raven. Now, he would collect any soul remnants he encountered.

It was because soul remnants were good raw materials to be added into puppets to form spirit puppets. Spirit puppets had self-awareness, which made controlling them a much more enjoyable task than controlling ordinary puppets. Of course, utilizing spirit puppets was a skill unique to advanced puppet masters.

After witnessing the death of the Grade 3 red-eye raven, the other Grade 2 red-eye ravens squeaked in terror. They circled the area once. Then, they pounced downward immediately. They seemed to want to avenge their dead companion with their suicidal attacks.

Chen Jingzhai did not let the innate money tree consume these ravens. With a wave of his hand, he set up a Restriction and effortlessly trapped the ravens in his Primordial Essence World. Then, he kept them in the Starlight Demon Subduing Tower.

Chen Jingzhai’s group loosened up after the flock of red-eye ravens was destroyed. This is because they had a better understanding of Chen Jingzhai’s abilities. Therefore, they were not nervous anymore and focused on protecting each other from the ravens.

To avoid attracting more red-eye ravens here, Chen Jingzhai altered his Restrictions to keep the swirl hidden. However, he did not block the divine light, allowing the innate money tree to consume as much as it desired.

The Great Heaven Mirror also reaped a huge benefit in the process. After ample magnetic power surged into it, it completed the Grade 3 Magnetic Light Formation.

At the same time, under the guidance of Chen Jingzhai, the Thunder and Magnet Formation was also coalesced in the Great Heaven Mirror. This formation was also a Grade 3 formation, which he learned from Daoxuan Peak. It could produce magnetic power and thunder.

Ordinary magic treasures would not be able to coalesce formations as easily as the Great Heaven Mirror. However, this mirror that Chen Jingzhai owned was a restricted formation tool, to begin with. When he refined it, he added in many materials and merged the Small Heavens Cloud Forbidden Restriction into it. Therefore, its potential had been increased by leaps and bounds.

With the appearance of these two formations, the Great Heaven Mirror had reached the pinnacle of a magic treasure. Its next step would be to coalesce a sentient embryo and then give birth to a child. After accomplishing that, it would be able to upgrade to a Grade 4 spiritual treasure.

......

Typically, Chen Jingzhai would certainly not upgrade his treasures immediately. However, the situation was different now. Fascination’s End had rich magnetic power to support the upgrading process. But, more crucially, there were magnetic coins on the innate money tree.

These two factors, combined with Chen Jingzhai’s confidence in his ability as a Grade 3 item alchemist, gave him the assurance that the Great Heaven Mirror would be successfully upgraded on the spot. Therefore, he instructed the Supreme Sky Master to collect 100 magnetic coins and a bloodline coin for him.

He then channeled all the coins into the Great Heaven Mirror. The Restriction in the core of the magic treasure automatically refines the coins. It dissolved the bloodline coin first before dissolving the magnetic coins.

The internal structure of the Great Heaven Mirror experienced instant changes. All the formations in the mirror were activated. Pure magnetic power quickly spread to every corner of the mirror and enveloped the formations and Restrictions.

Usually, the metamorphosis of the Great Heaven Mirror takes a long time. However, as endless magnetic power surged into it, it was transformed at an unbelievable speed.

The innate money tree seemed to know that the Great Heaven Mirror was at a crucial stage. It loosened its grip on the mirror slightly. Furthermore, it voluntarily allowed more magnetic power into the mirror.

This caused the mirror light emanating from the Great Heaven Mirror to increase drastically, expanding the swirl in the process. It attracted the attention of many red-eye ravens in Fascination’s End. More than 10 Grade 3 red-eye ravens were making their way here.

[Caw! Caw!]

Grade 3 red-eye ravens were intelligent. After sensing danger, they circled above the swirl and called out for help. More and more red-eye ravens charged toward the area after hearing the call from their companions.

Chen Jingzhai’s group could clearly see that more than 1,000 red-eye ravens were flying toward them. They flocked in and covered the sky above Fascination’s End. The layer of densely packed ravens even blocked out the sunlight. They looked menacing.

At the same time, to the left of Chen Jingzhai’s group, more precisely to the left and in front of them, 20 cultivators emerged from the woods. They stared at the red-eye ravens in the sky.

They were rather far away from Chen Jingzhai’s group. Therefore, from their perspective, they could only see flock after flock of red-eye ravens circling the area. Even with the divine minds of the Golden Core Sages, they could not sense what was happening there.

“Is it them?” someone asked.

“I think so. They are surprisingly fast. They actually reached here before us,” another person replied.

“What’s the point of reaching early? They have become our pathfinders instead,” someone mocked.

“That’s right!”

A cultivator commented, “They actually drew the attention of the red-eye ravens in Fascination’s End. That’s incredibly stupid.”

Another voice chipped in, “I think you’re overestimating them. They might not even know that they are at Fascination’s End now!”

Someone else chided, “Whatever you say is really stupid. All of us are disciples from various clans. They are not any weaker than us.”

A cultivator pacified them, saying, “Alright. There’s no need to argue. Let us think about how to cross Fascination’s End.”

Someone suggested, “What is there to think about? Let’s use this chance to cross the canyon quickly.”

“Yes!”

Most of the cultivators agreed to this suggestion while nodding. Their eyes sparkled with excitement.

This group of cultivators was supposed to join Chen Jingzhai and his group to explore the Woods Ocean Ancient Path together.

They were cultivators from the Will Celestial Clan, the Serenity Hollow Clan, and the Mystic Evil Clan.

The few genius talents that Chen Jingzhai was familiar with were not among the group.

The group consisted mainly of Golden Core Sages. There were fewer than five Foundational Cultivators.

This was why they did not journey with Chen Jingzhai and his group. They were indeed capable of exploring the place independently. They also had clear goals in mind.

When there were many Golden Core Sages in a group, no one could have the final say. They had to listen to everyone’s opinion.

Their progress was slow because of that. Otherwise, they would have reached Fascination’s End long ago.

However, their time of arrival did not affect anything. Fascination’s End was a considerable obstacle regardless.

They were happy to see that Chen Jingzhai and his group were trapped there. They also believed that this was an opportunity that they could utilize. It was ideal to have another group occupying the attention of the red-eye ravens while they crossed the canyon.

“Let’s cross the canyon immediately!” urged a cultivator from the Mystic Evil Clan excitedly. “The rich magnetic power there is perfect for aiding us in cultivating divine arts. If we manage to find a nice spot for meditation, we will reap huge benefits too!”

“That’s right!” Other Golden Core Sages from the Mystic Evil Clan agreed while nodding their heads. “As long as we don’t startle the red-eye ravens, we will surely be able to gather some resources. There might even be some Grade 3 or Grade 4 resources.”

A Golden Core Sage from the Serenity Hollow Clan poured cold water on their enthusiasm by saying, “The problem is how should we get there? If we fly across the canyon in the open, the red-eye ravens will certainly notice us. Their eyesight is sharp, and they are large in numbers.”

“Then we shall get the help of our fellow travelers over there,” said a Golden Core Sage from the Will Celestial Clan coldly. “Try to think of a way to make more red-eye ravens gather on their side. It’s best if all the ravens go over there.”

His suggestion was ruthless!

However, there was nothing wrong with his idea. In the opinion of the cultivators here, it was better to sacrifice other people than not be able to fulfill their personal interests. Therefore, Chen Jingzhai’s group could only blame everything on their bad luck.

Everyone here looked at the Golden Core Sage from the Will Celestial Clan with looks of anticipation.

“Do you know that there is a secret curse in the Will Celestial Clan that only Golden Core Sages can unleash?” asked the Golden Core Sage with a look of pride.

“Is it the Willful Curse?” asked the Golden Core Sage from the Serenity Hollow Clan with a look of surprise.

“That’s right!” replied the Golden Core Sage from the Will Celestial Clan while beaming. He plucked a strand of hair from his head and chanted, “Will. Will. Do as I wish. My will be done!”

He controlled the secret curse with his divine mind. The strand of hair in his hand began to shine with a hint of golden light. Then, after a single flash, the hair disappeared completely. Everyone could sense that it was flying toward the ravens in the distance.

“What function does this secret curse have?” asked the Golden Core Sage of the Mystic Evil Clan.

“The secret curse allows me to create any unique ability I wish for 15 minutes. For instance, I can use my hair to control the ferocity of the Grade 3 red-eye ravens,” explained the Golden Core Sage of the Will Celestial Clan.

“You can pull off such a feat?” commented the Golden Core Sage of the Mystic Evil Clan in astonishment.

“This is the Will Celestial Clan’s secret curse. It is formed by harvesting various emotions. As long as the medium of the curse is successfully planted on its target, the curse can be unleashed,” explained the Golden Core Sage of the Serenity Hollow Clan. He then lamented, “I never imagined that you managed to master it. No wonder you are here on this trip.”

“You are well-informed,” said the Golden Core Sage of the Will Celestial Clan calmly. “This secret curse is not omnipotent, but it is extremely effective against prehistoric demonic beasts.”

The crowd was in awe as they watched the changes to the ravens in the distance.
