With everything ready, Li Mu fully activated the Chaos Dao Scripture.
The next moment, his Chaos Dao Body manifested, with reddish-brown hair and light gray eyes, appearing exceptionally unique and strange.
His body was enveloped by a faint layer of Chaos Qi mist, which, though not substantial, gave a profound, ancient, and boundless feeling, as if he were in the Chaos at the beginning of the Universe, before anything was born.
Amidst the swirling Chaos Qi mist, Li Mu’s skin subtly exuded a warm, jade-like luster.
Chaos Power flowed over his body, presenting a unique aura after fusing with his flesh and blood.
His eyes, like swirling nebulae, became unfathomably deep, as if they could perceive the essence of all things in the world.
“Heavenly Fire as Furnace! Appear!”
Li Mu unleashed the eight-fold Heavenly Fire Artifact Refining Divine Ability—Heavenly Fire as Furnace.
The next moment, three clusters of Heavenly Fire flew out from his body, quickly converging, and in an instant, a massive three-colored Heavenly Fire Furnace gradually materialized before him.
The entire Skyfire Refining Furnace was nearly ten zhang tall, floating majestically, resembling an ancient temple of flames.
The furnace body was woven from three types of Heavenly Fire, displaying the blue-green of Yin Yang Lightning Fire, the purple-gold of Extreme Yang Heavenly Fire, and the crimson of Earth Vein Heavenly Fire.
The three colors intertwined, their brilliant light illuminating the entire Artifact Refining Room with dazzling intensity.
On the surface of the furnace body, flames danced, as if countless small fire spirits were playing within.
The flame spirits occasionally transformed into fire pythons, Fire Phoenixes, and Dragons, incredibly agile and mighty.
The furnace lid, condensed from three-colored flames, was wreathed in fire, forming a scorching flame barrier that sealed the heat and light within the furnace.
The three-colored Skyfire Refining Furnace emitted intense heat waves and light, like a giant fireball burning fiercely in the Artifact Refining Room.
The surrounding space was distorted by these heat waves, forming ripples of heat that exuded a terrifying high temperature.
However, Li Mu did not stop there; the Chaos Fire, formed from Chaos Qi, merged into it.
As the Chaos Fire poured in, the Heavenly Fire Furnace, condensed from the three clusters of Heavenly Fire, instantly seemed to be imbued with new life.
The furnace body trembled, and the three-colored flames intertwined with the Chaos Fire, erupting into an even more dazzling brilliance.
Within the brilliance, there was both the vastness of Chaos at its inception and the fierce wildness of Heavenly Fire.
The two fused, creating an indescribable harmony and power, and the fire power increased several times, even dozens of times.
Li Mu formed hand Seals, Chaos Qi surging.
With his mind and spirit unified, he fully concentrated on controlling the Skyfire Refining Furnace and the Chaos Fire.
Once the furnace temperature was suitable, he immediately threw the space boundary stone into it.
The space boundary stone floated within the Skyfire Refining Furnace, tightly enveloped by the flames interweaving Chaos Fire and three-colored Heavenly Fire.
Soon, the dormant space power on the surface of the boundary stone was melted by the powerful furnace fire, and its spirituality was awakened, like a sleeping Dragon gradually awakening under the scorching flames.
The Law of space diffused under the tempering of the flames.
“Buzz!”
As the space boundary stone vibrated, powerful spatial fluctuations emanated from within the furnace.
Li Mu used his Divine Thought as a knife and Chaos Fire as ink to carve the basic artifact array onto the space boundary stone.
The softened spatial Law, like putty, gradually formed a complex and exquisite artifact array under Li Mu’s meticulous carving, guided by his Divine Thought.
Chaos Fire, as the “ink” for carving, with its scorching heat and purity, made each carving like opening a new spatial passage in the Void Realm.
Under Li Mu’s control, the spatial Law, like a tamed beast, obediently integrated into the artifact array, resonating perfectly with it.
As the artifact array gradually took shape, the light on the surface of the space boundary stone grew even more dazzling, and the spatial power fluctuations became peaceful.
Seeing this, Li Mu let out a slight breath of relief, his mind composed.
His hands quickly formed Seals, and as Chaos Qi circulated, he turned his gaze to the Years Wheel Orb and the causal threads cluster.
They were both rare treasures of Heaven and Earth, containing the supreme Dao Law of Years and Karma.
Next, Li Mu’s Divine Thought moved, and he threw the Years Wheel Orb into the furnace.
After the Years Wheel Orb entered the furnace, the ice element Seal on its surface quickly disintegrated under the calcination of Chaos Fire.
The rich Years Dao contained within then gushed out, intertwining with the previously awakened space power.
The Artifact Refining Room was instantly filled with an ancient and Vicissitudes aura, as if transporting one through time and space, touching the long river of ancient Years.
Within the furnace, flames surged, and the power of Years gradually condensed under the tempering of the flames, transforming into wisps of faint golden flowing light.
These wisps flowed within the furnace with an indescribable sense of weight, intertwining with the power of space, wrapping around each other, and coexisting, forming a marvelous resonance.
Li Mu then threw the causal threads cluster into the Skyfire Refining Furnace as well.
As the flames scorched, the cluster gradually spread out, and wisps of causal threads danced in the flames.
They were like the fine lines of fate, tightly connecting the past, present, and future.
Under Li Mu’s meticulous control, these causal threads began to intertwine with the power of Years and the power of space.
A marvelous reaction occurred between the three, forming an unprecedented Dao resonance.
Li Mu quickly formed hand Seals, and Chaos Power surged out, madly pouring into the Skyfire Refining Furnace.
His Divine Thought fully guided this power, perfectly fusing the three Dao Laws of Years, space, and Karma, and condensing them into a tangible artifact embryo.
Time flew by.
Within the Heavenly Fire Furnace, an unprecedented pressure began to condense.
That was the new power born from the Fusion of the three supreme Dao Laws of Years, space, and Karma.
This power transcended the boundaries of single Laws, encompassing the flow of time, the vastness of space, and the Reincarnation and destiny of Karma.
Under Li Mu’s meticulous control, the flames within the furnace gradually subsided, replaced by a brilliant radiance.
That was the unique glow emitted after the Fusion of the three Dao Laws.
Within the radiance, a vague artifact embryo slowly took shape; it seemed to bear all the mysteries of Heaven and Earth, exuding a terrifying power.
Li Mu’s eyes sparkled with excitement.
His Refining Skill had already broken through the Bottleneck and was at an unprecedented height, about to refine a truly significant supreme treasure.
Success in Artifact Refining was already within reach.
Next, it was time to condense the artifact patterns and finalize its form.
Li Mu’s Divine Thought moved, and he took out two bottles of Spirit Pills from the tianxuan ring.
He poured out two “Myriad Spirit Dao Pills” and two “Heavenly Star Dao Pills,” swallowing them all in advance.
Then, his whole body’s Chaos magic power surged, fully pouring into the Skyfire Refining Furnace, assisting in the condensation of the artifact patterns.
Li Mu quickly formed hand Seals, and the Chaos True Essence within his body surged like a bursting river, irresistibly pouring into the Skyfire Refining Furnace to condense artifact patterns using the method of divine patterns.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
Li Mu’s Divine Thought, like silk threads, wove through the endless Void Realm, condensing the Law divine patterns of Chaos, space-time, Years, and Karma.
With an almost devout posture, he meticulously fused these supreme Law powers, thread by thread, into the artifact embryo, outlining its artifact patterns.
Unlike any previous Magic Treasure refining, this time, Li Mu was going to fully fuse the three supreme Dao Laws of space-time, Years, and Karma, ultimately forging an unparalleled array artifact.
The first artifact pattern—Chaos Domain—slowly took shape under Li Mu’s meticulous carving.
This artifact pattern was like an invisible barrier, enveloping the space around the array artifact in Chaos, allowing the array artifact to instantly isolate all external interference in battle, forming an independent battlefield.
In this Domain, the power of the array artifact would be maximized, while other powers would be weakened or even nullified.
The first artifact pattern—Space-Time Flow—was also successfully condensed.
This artifact pattern endowed the array artifact with the ability to traverse space-time, achieving unexpected effects in both offense and defense at critical moments.
The wielder could change the flow of time at will during battle.
The third artifact pattern—Years Reversal—this artifact pattern condensed Li Mu’s profound understanding of the Law of Years.
This artifact pattern allowed the array artifact to release the power of Years in battle, causing all powers to fall into the erosion of Years, gradually losing their original strength.
At the same time, it also allowed the wielder to revert to a certain point in the past, re-planning battle strategies, or avoiding fatal crises.
The fourth artifact pattern—Karma Entanglement.
The fifth artifact pattern—Space-Time Distortion.
...
As each artifact pattern was successfully condensed, Li Mu’s Refining Skill also reached an unprecedented Peak state.
His Divine Thought and Chaos True Essence surged like a tide into the Skyfire Refining Furnace, continuously injecting new power and might into the array artifact.
Finally, at a certain moment, all 28 artifact patterns were condensed.
They intertwined and resonated with each other, forming a complex and exquisite array artifact, containing the four supreme Dao Laws of Chaos, space-time, Years, and Karma.
It was like a microcosm of the Universe, containing endless mysteries and power.
With the 28 artifact patterns condensed, this artifact was already refined.
The artifact spirit gradually manifested, and its grade had reached the level of a seventh-rank top-grade Dao Artifact.
However, its Foundation still had immense room for development.
At this moment, if one more artifact pattern were condensed for it, it could directly advance to an eighth-rank extreme Dao Array Artifact upon its emergence.
Li Mu hesitated in his heart, wondering whether to add one more artifact pattern to this nearly completed seventh-rank top-grade Dao Artifact to upgrade it to an eighth-rank extreme Dao Array Artifact.
This was undoubtedly a difficult choice.
Condensing the last artifact pattern was not only an ultimate challenge to his Refining Skill but also required immense mental effort and resources.
A slight mistake could lead to all efforts being in vain, or even damage the already formed artifact spirit, resulting in failure.
If it could not become an eighth-rank extreme Dao Array Artifact, its power might not be able to completely suppress the spirituality of the nine-rank divine object.
Gamble!
Li Mu pondered for a moment, a look of determination flashing in his eyes, along with absolute confidence in his Refining Skill.
Taking this step would be a huge leap in his Artifact Refining career, and also the ultimate test of his Years of cultivation achievements.
Correct version is reading! 6=9+Book_Bar first published this novel.
Li Mu took a deep breath, calmed his inner fluctuations, and adjusted his state to the best.
He continuously poured Chaos True Essence into it, helping to condense this last artifact pattern.
This artifact pattern would be named “Chaos Resonance,” aiming for the perfect Fusion of the ten supreme Dao Laws: Five Elements, Yin and Yang, space-time, Years, and Karma, which are the Origin of the Chaos Law.
It would bestow unprecedented power upon this array artifact.
Under Li Mu’s guidance, the three Dao Laws began to intertwine and collide within the Skyfire Refining Furnace, generating unprecedented energy fluctuations.
These energy fluctuations, like a violent storm, impacted the nearly completed seventh-rank top-grade Dao Artifact, attempting to engrave the last artifact pattern upon it.
“Buzz buzz…”
Within the Heavenly Fire Furnace, the array diagram artifact embryo trembled violently, radiating immense light, as if undergoing a transformative struggle.
Each vibration seemed to challenge the limits of physics and Law.
Li Mu’s Divine Thought and Chaos Origin Power, like invisible chains, tightly wrapped around this turbulent energy, guiding them to fuse and condense according to the predetermined trajectory.
“Condense for me!”
Li Mu’s face contorted in a ferocious expression, unleashing full firepower, not hesitating to consume his own Chaos Origin, pouring it into it, his voice hoarse.
Amidst Li Mu’s furious roar, the previously turbulent energy gradually stabilized.
They formed a stable energy field within the Heavenly Fire Furnace, firmly enveloping the nascent form of that artifact pattern.
As the energy field stabilized, the light within the Heavenly Fire Furnace also gradually converged, finally condensing into a dazzling pillar of light.
This pillar of light was precisely the condensed form of the “Chaos Resonance” artifact pattern.
At this moment, the entire Treasure Mansion space trembled, and an unprecedented energy fluctuation erupted from the Skyfire Refining Furnace, soaring into the sky.
“It’s done!”
When the last artifact pattern finally condensed and appeared, Li Mu couldn’t help but let out a cheer.
Within the Heavenly Fire Furnace, an eighth-rank extreme Dao Artifact condensed into form—a simple, transparent circular jade disc—which slowly flew out of the furnace on its own, hovering before Li Mu.
Complex spiritual patterns flowed upon it, emitting a powerful Chaos light, full of spirituality, as if waiting for something.
Li Mu’s eyes showed joy.
He lightly raised his right hand, gently touching it with his fingertip, and a surge of Chaos True Essence poured in, followed by his Divine Thought leaving a brand within it.
In a moment, Li Mu easily refined this eighth-rank extreme Dao Artifact he had forged.
His mind was closely connected to the simple, transparent circular jade disc, and an indescribable joy rippled in his heart as he felt the powerful force it contained.
“From now on, you shall be called: Chaos Zhenyuan Disk, follow me to conquer all directions and explore the Dao together!” Li Mu thought, giving it a solemn name.
As Li Mu’s words fell, the Zhenyuan Disk’s body vibrated greatly.
In the center of the Chaos Zhenyuan Disk, a tiny but exceptionally clear crack quietly appeared.
Immediately after, a small, exquisite, crystal-clear bird flew out from it, its whole body emitting a faint Chaos light.
Its wings gently spread, each feather seemingly containing endless mysteries and power.
Its pair of dark, round eyes sparkled with the light of wisdom.
The artifact spirit of the Chaos Zhenyuan Disk directly manifested.
It lightly flapped its wings and flew up, gracefully landing on Li Mu’s shoulder, chirping happily twice, as if responding to Li Mu, very much liking the name.
Then, it rubbed its small head against Li Mu’s cheek.
Li Mu smiled, overjoyed, clearly feeling the Zhenyuan Disk’s artifact spirit’s dependence and closeness.
Just then, he suddenly felt a fluctuation from the outside world; it was precisely the lock from the will of Heaven and Earth.
The emergence of the Chaos Zhenyuan Disk caused a huge tremor between Heaven and Earth.
Even within the Painting World Treasure Mansion’s grotto-heaven space, it could not escape the gaze of the will of Heaven and Earth, which consequently sent down its Dao Artifact Heavenly Tribulation. (End of this chapter)
