Chapter 1071: Chapter 555: Tier Seven Spirit Talisman (Part 1)

After watching Lin Maosan leave, Li Mu imbued his Divine Sense into the Storage Ring, ’seeing’ the various high-tier Spiritual Objects inside the ring, his mind stirred.

With a "whoosh," thousands of Artifact Refining Spiritual Materials and rare ores were drawn by an invisible force, floating around Li Mu, revealing the attributes of numerous Spiritual Objects within his gaze.

[Profound Frost Ice Soul]

[Grade: Tier Seven Spiritual Object]

[Attributes: Profound Frost Condensation, Ghostly Cold Ice Soul, freezing to the core, all things silent.]

[Status: Ice Soul crystallized, chillingly cold]

[Deep beneath millennium-old ice lies the Profound Frost Ice Soul, formed by the purest ice essence of the Land of the Far North, containing extreme ghostly chilling power that can freeze time, plunging all things into eternal silence. The possessor can comprehend the mysteries of the Ice Law through it, mastering the supreme Divine Techniques to freeze all objects and control ice and snow.]

[Golden Flame Divine Sand]

[Grade: Tier Seven Spiritual Material]

[Attributes: Golden Flames intertwined, unmatched heat, body refining and soul forging, rare divine object.]

[Status: Sand grains flowing, fire unending]

[Originating from the depths of the earth’s core, a wondrous object coexisting with gold iron and blazing fire, Golden Flame Divine Sand contains the ultimate sharpness of gold and the blazing heat of fire, serving as supreme Spiritual Material for forging Divine Artifacts, refining the physical body, and enhancing the soul. Through this, one can comprehend the Dao of Fire Fusion, mastering the mightiest and fiercest power of heaven and earth.]

[Profound Wood Spirit Vine]

[Grade: Tier Six Spirit Plants]

[Attributes: Evergreen Profound Wood, endless life, entangling all things, binding divine soul.]

[Status: Vines spreading, lush green]

[Profound Wood Spirit Vine, parasitic on the tier seven Black Profound Wood, stretches unendingly with a verdant presence, containing powerful life force and binding strength. Its vines can entangle all objects, even the mighty divine souls find it hard to escape its grasp.]

...

Numerous high-tier Spiritual Objects, with quite decent quality, though the quantity has declined somewhat from before.

Li Mu stretched out his hand, with a move of his Divine Thought, categorizing each Spiritual Object and storing them into the Merak Ring, vanishing without a trace.

Finally, a piece of Demon Beast Hide fell in front of Li Mu.

Under the Innate Divine Power - Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, the attributes of the Demon Beast Hide emitting terrifying cold showed in Li Mu’s eyes.

[Nether Abyss Ice Beast Hide]

[Grade: Tier Seven True Spirit Hide]

[Attributes: Netherworld’s Extreme Cold, Frozen Universe, Nether Ice Soul, Cold Radiance Ten Thousand Feet, Frosty Heaven and Earth, Bone-Chilling Cold.]

[Status: Frost locked, cold brilliance shimmering]

[Nether Abyss Ice Beast, deep diving into the depths of the unfrozen millennial ice in the Far North’s deepest territory, is the supreme sovereign of the Ice Domain. Draped in scales forged from the purest ice essence of the Nine Nether, it harbors terrifying cold power capable of freezing all worldly things. Nether Abyss Ice Beast Hide is not only the extreme in material but also in cold force, containing a trace of the Nine Nether Ice Origin, a rare material for forging supreme ice Dao Artifacts and cold-attribute spirit talismans.]

Looking at this superior high-tier Artifact Refining, Talisman-Making Spiritual Material, Li Mu couldn’t help but feel a bit eager. This piece of tier seven True Spirit hide is quite large, enough to refine a Dao Artifact with plenty leftover to make Talisman Paper for many high-tier Spirit Talismans.

Li Mu swiftly took action, retrieving a Skinning Knife from the Merak Ring to trim it, the blade sparkling in the cold light, each cut exceptionally precise, echoing the beast patterns on the Nether Abyss Ice Beast Hide.

As the Skinning Knife slowly advanced, the Nether Abyss Ice Beast Hide gradually revealed its purer, flawless side, with cold brilliance becoming ever more dazzling, seemingly freezing the surrounding air, making even breathing heavier.

After completing the initial trim, he divided it into two pieces, a large and a small one. Li Mu did not rush into the next refining step but first delicately probed them with Spiritual Power to ensure every inch of the hide was intact while sensing the contained ice origin.

Storing the large piece for Dao Artifact refinement, Li Mu then employed the Power of Chaos to gently stroke the small piece of Nether Abyss Ice Beast Hide, suppressing the spilling cold to prevent unnecessary damage during skinning.

Subsequently, carefully using the Skinning Knife as a guide, along the intricate textures of the ice beast hide, seemed to undertake a meticulous carving artwork. A series of thin Talisman Papers, enveloped in icy mist, gradually birthed under his dexterous hands.

Before long, Li Mu took out a rune pen Dao Artifact from the Merak Ring, known as the "Profound Wolf Rune Pen."

This rune pen is a masterpiece of Li Mu’s years of effort and serendipities, not a standalone piece but part of a tapestry crafted to address diverse attribute needs—a signature series of ten rune pens. Each pen encapsulates his profound understanding of the Path of Artifact Refining.

Across a hundred years, besides occasional cultivation attempts trying to break through the Integration Realm, most of Li Mu’s time was devoted to nurturing various Spirit Plants, Artifact Refining, Talisman Painting, and Puppet Crafting. Meanwhile, he refined numerous ’specialized’ Dao Artifacts for himself, such as Dao Artifact-level Alchemy Furnace, Skinning Knife, Rune Pen, etc.

"To perfect a craft, first sharpen its tools," this saying is deeply ingrained in Li Mu’s heart, forming his relentless pursuit of excellence as his guiding principle.

On the cultivation path, aside from personal cultivation and realm, possessing a handy and superb quality Dao Artifact often plays a decisive role at critical moments. Therefore, Li Mu devoted immense effort on various crafting tools, striving to refine each piece to perfection.

The brush hair of the "Profound Wolf Rune Pen" was harvested from the precious fur of tier seven Ice Wolf Demon Emperor, each strand containing Demon Emperor level of icy cold power and spiritual energy.
