Chapter 2848: Illusory Moon Treasure Mirror

"Senior Wang, there are still many good things in the Myriad Fire Abyss. Let's look around a bit more!" Liu Yuxin said cautiously. In her opinion, sixteen cultivators at the Soul Transformation stage working together could easily sweep through the Myriad Fire Abyss.

"No need. I've already obtained what I came for. It's better to maintain a sense of reverence," Wang Qingshan said gravely, knowing when to be content.

It's not uncommon in the cultivation world for major powers to discover a natural secret realm or the ruins of a grand sect, only for their high-ranking members to lead most of their masters on a treasure hunt, resulting in heavy casualties and severe depletion of their forces.

"Once we relocate our clan members here, we can rest and recuperate, then send people to explore slowly. There's no need for Old Ancestor Qingshan to personally take risks," Han Yuxiu said respectfully. Having Wang Qingshan handle everything would make them seem too useless.

"That's right. We will send people to investigate the Myriad Fire Abyss; Old Ancestor Qingshan doesn't need to personally intervene." Other clan elders echoed this sentiment.

Hearing this, Liu Yuxin said no more and dutifully followed Wang Qingshan as they departed.

In the Profound Yang Realm, on Green Lotus Island. In a secret chamber, Wang Changsheng sat cross-legged on a green futon, his expression solemn, his gaze fixed on the Green Lotus Spirit Refining Cauldron before him. A snowy-blue flame burned beneath the cauldron. Various artifact refining materials were laid out beside Wang Changsheng, indicating he was in the process of refining an artifact.

After a while, Wang Changsheng changed his hand seals and struck a magic formula into the cauldron. The lid flew open, and a silver light shot out, revealing an ancient-looking silver mirror. Its edges were adorned with moon patterns, and it exuded astonishing spiritual energy. The words "Illusory Moon" were engraved on the back of the mirror, shimmering with spiritual light.

This was the Illusory Moon Treasure Mirror, a mid-grade Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure. Wang Changsheng had refined it primarily using Illusory Moon Divine Crystals, with assistance from Wang Qingfeng and others; otherwise, he wouldn't have completed it so quickly.

Wang Changsheng possessed many mid-grade Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures, but only four were particularly unique: the Soul Shaking Gong, the Sky-Breaking Hammer, the Illusory Moon Treasure Mirror, and the Nine-Light Bottle.

Soul-type treasures were rare. As far as Wang Changsheng knew, among all humanity on the Profound Spirit Continent, only the Divine Weapon Sect possessed a soul-type treasure, the Profound Soul Mirror, which was also a mid-grade Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure.

The Sky-Breaking Hammer could tear open space. Space-type treasures were also very rare; it seemed only the Profound Azure Sect possessed one, the World-Breaker Plate. However, the Sky-Breaking Hammer was a mid-grade Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure, while the World-Breaker Plate was a high-grade one.

While the Sky-Breaking Hammer could rip open space within a limited range, the World-Breaker Plate could breach dimensional barriers and open temporary passages. It was not impossible for other forces to have spatial treasures, but their grade would certainly not be high.

The Illusory Moon Treasure Mirror was an illusion-type treasure, also uncommon on the Profound Spirit Continent. The Divine Weapon Sect had a sect-guarding treasure, the Heavenly Illusion Pearl, which shone brightly in the last racial war, but unfortunately, it was destroyed by a Spirit Race cultivator at the Integration stage.

Wang Changsheng possessed a Mirage Dragon, whose innate divine abilities were even more potent than the Illusory Moon Treasure Mirror's, rendering the mirror unnecessary for him.

The Nine-Light Bottle was a tribulation-crossing treasure, and without the Nine-Light Divine Clay to repair it, it would eventually break; it was only a matter of time.

He refined the Illusory Moon Treasure Mirror intending it to become a clan-guarding treasure, thereby strengthening the family's foundation.

The Wang family now possessed three clan-guarding treasures, all mid-grade Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures: the Sky Moon Spirit-Quelling Hammer, the Blazing Fire Demon Refining Pagoda, and the Illusory Moon Treasure Mirror. The Sky Moon Spirit-Quelling Hammer was a heavy-duty artifact, forged with a large amount of Sky Moon Cold Crystals, imbuing it with cold energy attacks. It was exceptionally heavy and primarily intended for body cultivators.

The Blazing Fire Demon Refining Pagoda was mainly used to temper clan members and improve their combat skills. It could conjure seventh-tier demonic beasts to attack those challenging it.

With Wang Changsheng's current artifact refining skill, crafting mid-grade Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures was not difficult. For an artifact to serve as a clan-guarding treasure, it either needed to possess unique characteristics or be of a higher grade.

Wang Changsheng took out his communication disk and contacted Wang Moshan to inquire about the Nine-Origin Profound Wood and the Profound Nether Ghost Wood.

Wang Desheng had already returned to Green Lotus Island with Wang Mengbin, bringing back the Profound Nether Ghost Wood.

The Nine-Origin Profound Wood had been transplanted to Green Lotus Island, gradually increasing the island's spiritual energy density, benefiting all cultivators there. The Profound Nether Ghost Wood, on the other hand, was transplanted to Jade Balance Island, causing a dense Yin energy presence. Ordinary cultivators could not stay there, but clan members cultivating Yin-attribute techniques found their practice doubly effective, making it a unique spiritual site.

Bai Yuqi and Wang Yong'an used the Profound Nether Ghost Wood as the core of a Grand Profound Yin Array to further enhance Jade Balance Island's Yin energy density, which was then used to cultivate Yin-attribute spirit herbs, medicinal plants, and spirit beasts.

The over 200,000-year-old Profound Nether Ghost Wood was an excellent artifact refining material. Wang Changsheng had cut a piece of it, intending to keep it for exchange with other Integration stage cultivators.

During the transplantation of the Nine-Origin Profound Wood and the Profound Nether Ghost Wood, many roots were broken. Fortunately, the Wang family possessed Creation Divine Water, which ensured the healthy growth of both trees remained unaffected.

"Both the Nine-Origin Profound Wood and the Profound Nether Ghost Wood are growing very well. I've assigned several spiritual plant caretakers to them. By the way, Old Ancestor, Senior Lin from the Profound Azure Sect has asked us to closely monitor the movements of the Lizard Race and report any anomalies immediately," Wang Moshan reported truthfully.

"Is that all? Nothing else?" Wang Changsheng frowned, a hint of disappointment in his expression.

"If we can uncover the true purpose behind the Lizard Race's collection of spirit souls, there will be substantial rewards. The Profound Azure Sect is indeed a bit stingy; even if they don't offer a treasure, some materials would be fine. We discovered the Lizard Race was collecting a large number of spirit souls and reported it as quickly as possible," Wang Moshan complained. Any discerning person could see that a racial war was imminent, and all major human forces were actively preparing, the Wang family being no exception.

The Wang family was collecting various materials, especially rare artifact refining materials, though they hadn't yet acquired what they desired.

"Never mind that. Let's just do our part and urge our clan members to cultivate. A racial war could erupt at any moment," Wang Changsheng instructed, his expression solemn. The longer it was delayed, the larger the scale of the racial war would become.

"Yes, Old Ancestor," Wang Moshan agreed.

Putting away the communication disk, Wang Changsheng whistled. The Mirage Dragon rushed out from a courtyard and came before him. Its body had grown considerably, but it remained a low-grade sixth-tier creature.

After entering the sixth tier, its growth rate had slowed down, primarily due to the scarcity of cultivation resources. Only illusion-type spirit herbs and medicinal plants could significantly aid its progress.

Wang Changsheng took out two Dream-Parting Fruits and fed them to the Mirage Dragon.

After consuming the two Dream-Parting Fruits, the Mirage Dragon let out joyful roars.

"Go play! I hope you reach the mid-grade sixth tier soon," Wang Changsheng waved his hand.

The Mirage Dragon still couldn't speak, but it possessed a certain level of intelligence, equivalent to a five or six-year-old child, and was quite playful, making its cultivation efficiency very low. In contrast, the Dual-Pupiled Rat could speak and think independently, knew how to plan for its future, and diligently cultivated, resulting in higher cultivation efficiency.

The Mirage Dragon seemed to understand Wang Changsheng's words and returned to its nest.

Both creatures had their own lairs, but the Dual-Pupiled Rat's was the largest, filled with numerous spiritual herbs and fruits, and occasionally supplemented with fifth-tier demonic beasts to improve its diet.

The Mirage Dragon was quite picky, refusing low-grade spirit herbs and low-tier demonic beasts. The Dual-Pupiled Rat, however, had no such qualms; it would eat any food with spiritual energy.
