"Passed the test? So, you can be tamed now?" Lin Fei fixed his gaze on Dubhe, a glint of brilliance flashing in his eyes.
"Yes, I can now be tamed. Let's begin the process." Dubhe smiled faintly.
"Whoosh."
In the next moment, Dubhe disappeared, transforming into a jade pendant and directly entering Lin Fei's body. Furthermore, Dubhe entered Lin Fei at a particle level. This meant if someone's power couldn't destroy Lin Fei's particles, no one could snatch away Dubhe.
As Dubhe melded into him, Lin Fei closed his eyes. Visions and information about "Dubhe" emerged in his mind. For instance, he learned that Dubhe is a Dao Artifact, crafted by a true immortal at the Dao Integration level, named Dubhe. It is an entirely supportive instrument, containing various teachings of the Immortal Dao, Martial Dao, various secret manuals, formation methods, magic treasure crafting, and more - a vast collection gathered by True Immortal Dubhe after investing endless efforts. Before leaving, True Immortal Dubhe left behind the Dubhe Dao Artifact for someone predestined to find. Lin Fei was that person.
"Dubhe," With a thought, Lin Fei summoned Dubhe.
"Master," Dubhe reappeared.
"What is Dao Integration?" Lin Fei inquired.
"The stages of Immortal Dao are Qi Condensation, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Deity Transformation, Dao Integration, and Great Completion. Dao Integration is also known as becoming a True Immortal. It signifies understanding the Great Dao and achieving the status of a True Immortal!"
Lin Fei's eyes shone brightly. Dao Integration to become a True Immortal! So, the term "Immortal" actually refers to Dao Integration. The Dubhe Dao Artifact is indeed a great opportunity.
"Am I the first master of you?"
"No, Qing Yuzi was its first master. Initially, Qing Yuzi and Hua Xiangzi discovered True Immortal Dubhe's cave mansion and subsequently obtained the treasures of True Immortal Dubhe. Among them, Qing Yuzi received the Dubhe Dao Artifact. Later, Qing Yuzi and Hua Xiangzi became Dao companions.
However, in her pursuit of Deity Transformation, Hua Xiangzi ambushed Qing Yuzi, seizing his treasures. Gravely injured, Qing Yuzi fled here with only the Dubhe Dao Artifact left. He cultivated diligently, but due to Hua Xiangzi's betrayal, his foundation was damaged. He could only cultivate to half-step Deity Transformation, never truly achieving it.
When Qing Yuzi's life limit approached, he left the Dubhe Dao Artifact behind and sought Hua Xiangzi for closure. Unfortunately, he died, severing his connection with the Dubhe Dao Artifact. The Azure Flood Dragon King was specifically captured by Qing Yuzi to set up a large formation, utilizing the Spiritual Qi of the entire continent to nourish the Flood Dragon King's inner pill. This was all to refine the Jade Liquid in an attempt to repair his foundation. Alas, even the Jade Liquid couldn't restore him completely."
Lin Fei understood. Qing Yuzi was the first master of the Dubhe Dao Artifact. However, he didn't achieve Deity Transformation and was even betrayed by his Dao companion. In the pursuit of the Dao, even one's companion could prove unreliable.
"This Jade Liquid, besides repairing the foundation, does it have any benefits for martial artists?" Lin Fei asked.
"The Jade Liquid has little effect on martial artists. Yet, for one with a Golden Core, its impact is profound. In fact, the Jade Liquid has another name — the Nascent Soul Transformation Liquid. As the name suggests, it greatly aids the process of Nascent Soul transformation.
However, the concoction of the Nascent Soul Transformation Liquid is arduous. It demands the alignment of heaven and earth. For instance, the entire continent must absorb the Spiritual Qi from the heavens and earth for twenty thousand years to produce but a mere drop of this liquid. And only with the core of the Azure Flood Dragon, a sea creature of extraordinary talent, can this Jade Liquid possibly come into existence."
Lin Fei was somewhat disheartened for the Jade Liquid held no value to martial artists. Which meant it was currently of no use to him. He couldn't leap forward in strength due to this fortuitous encounter.
"Master, the martial path is different from the path of the immortals. The True Immortal Dubhe once said that the martial way is a journey to break one's own chains, all must be achieved through one's own efforts. Yet, once these chains are shattered, the accomplishments of the martial path can be boundless, possibly even surpassing that of the immortals!"
Lin Fei's eyes sparkled with realization. This was spoken by Dubhe, the true immortal. Once the martial path reached its zenith, it might even surpass the way of the immortals.
Of course, Lin Fei was still far from that peak. But on reflection, the power of a martial artist was inherent. There was no need to rely on external forces. Indeed, in this respect, the martial path seemed stronger than that of the immortals.
"The Dubhe Dao Artifact is merely a storage space, meant to hold manuals?"
Lin Fei felt that such a grand artifact, crafted by a Dao Integration true immortal, seemed a bit underwhelming in its prowess. After all, there were many magical treasures that could store techniques and scriptures. There seemed to be no need to specifically forge such an artifact.
"Master, aside from storing scriptures, the Dubhe Dao Artifact serves another crucial purpose. It can accelerate time! Anything related to time is a domain only those of the true immortal level can touch, if only just barely. In this aspect alone, the Dubhe Dao Artifact surpasses all other magical treasures."
"Time acceleration?"
A notion stirred within Lin Fei. Such an ability defied the heavens. To Lin Fei, sometimes, he indeed wished for time to move faster. After all, his lifespan was vast, yet his cultivation was young. There were instances where step-by-step cultivation could lead to the peak.
Yet, regrettably, Lin Fei didn't have the luxury of time. For instance, his Saber Domain! The direction of its completion was already clear to Lin Fei. He didn't need to worry about its cultivation. Time was all he needed to reach perfection.
But how long would it take? A year? A decade? Or a century? Lin Fei was uncertain. However, with time acceleration, Lin Fei could perfect his Saber Domain in a short span, preparing him for impending crises.
"How can I accelerate time?" Lin Fei inquired.
"Typically, only a true immortal can activate time acceleration. But Dubhe, the true immortal, forged the Dubhe Dao Artifact. It consumes vast energy to accelerate time. This energy is not ordinary. It is unimaginably vast. Certain Spiritual Qi stones, spirit liquids, and the cores of exotic beasts can serve this purpose."
Lin Fei pondered deeply. He realized that this energy must be truly extraordinary.
"Wait, can the Jade Liquid serve as this energy?"
Lin Fei's eyes lit up, gazing at the vast pool of Jade Liquid. That was what Qing Yuzi had set up with the great formation, taking tens of thousands of years, absorbing the entire Spiritual Qi of the Great Chang.
Now Lin Fei began to grasp why the Great Chang declined. Many exotic beasts had become extinct. Because the formation Qing Yuzi set was ceaselessly drawing the Spiritual Qi. With the decrease in Spiritual Qi, exotic beasts were affected. Some left the Great Chang, while others perished.
Naturally, the martial and immortal paths of the Great Chang faced hindrances. Many strong beings had to cross the seas, seeking the Ancient Continent. All could be traced back to Qing Yuzi's formation. All because of this Jade Liquid!
"Passed the test? So, you can be tamed now?" Lin Fei fixed his gaze on Dubhe, a glint of brilliance flashing in his eyes.
"Yes, I can now be tamed. Let's begin the process." Dubhe smiled faintly.
"Whoosh."
