Inside the floating light pot.
After Su Yuan refined the Storage Rings of the Lunatic Cultivator and Old Ancestor Wuyin, he poured everything out, forming two small mountains next to Silver Spirit Lake.
The Spirit Transformation Old Demon's collection was extremely rich; not to mention the massive amount of Spirit Stones, there were all sorts of rare Materials below the fifth-tier, hundreds of third-tier Treasure Artifacts, and over a thousand second-tier Spiritual Artifacts.
Other treasures were also ridiculously numerous.
A single Storage Ring contained a Spirit Transformation Cultivator's millennia of treasures, countless!
This was Spirit Transformation!
They were among the most top-tier Cultivators in the currently known territories.
Su Yuan searched through them but only found one fifth-tier Spirit Treasure and two fourth-tier Treasure Artifacts!
Treasures above the fourth-tier sharply decreased, though there were many Materials; finished products were just these few.
That fifth-tier Spirit Treasure was a Soul Gathering Banner, and it surprisingly contained nine thousand ghosts!
This should be Old Demon Wuyin's Spirit Treasure; it had many cracks on it, indicating it was also damaged.
But as soon as it was taken out, the Soul Gathering Banner showed signs of activity; Xiao Li, who was prepared nearby, directly applied the suppressing power of a sixth-tier Spirit Treasure onto it, rendering it immobile.
The other two Treasure Artifacts were a tower and a bell: the tower was a Corpse Nurturing Tower, and the bell was a Soul Loss Bell.
Su Yuan glanced at them twice and then paid them no mind.
He stared at the Soul Gathering Banner, scratching his head, "How should this be handled?"
He couldn't refine it, so it seemed he could only hand it over to the Sect.
At this moment, the myriad treasures universe cauldron floated over.
"Su Yuan, besides absorbing divine charm to raise my grade, I can also absorb the Origin of Spirit Treasures to recover from injuries! I can also inherit some functions from refined Spirit Treasures. If you don't need these Spirit Treasures and Treasure Artifacts, why not throw them to me to refine?"
Little Qian's tone was full of anticipation and apprehension.
Su Yuan looked at him strangely, "I never heard you say before that you could refine existing treasures. Now you're finally willing to reveal this ability. Could it be that this function is very disadvantageous?"
Xiao Li jumped into Su Yuan's arms, baring her teeth at Little Qian, "You're too dishonest! I knew early on you weren't a good Spirit Treasure!"
Little Qian said anxiously, "I had a reason for not saying anything before. Although I'm severely damaged, the difficulty of refining me is still considerable, which is why I reminded Su Yuan to refine me with divine charm. But now I've been more than half refined successfully, and Su Yuan just got a batch of treasures, so I'm saying it now. There was no point in saying it before, was there?!"
"Is that so?" Xiao Li's face was full of disbelief.
Su Yuan smiled and said, "No rush, no rush."
Little Qian looked at the large number of Treasure Artifacts in the small mountain, almost drooling.
Su Yuan asked again, "So, in reality, you don't need divine charm to recover to the seventh-tier? You just need to refine and absorb other treasures!"
Little Qian immediately replied, "That's right, that's right. However, absorbing divine charm is still my main way of increasing my grade. Refining treasures is very inefficient, but it's quite fast for recovering my grade!"
"What does 'very inefficient' mean?" Su Yuan asked, puzzled.
Xiao Li warned, "Su Yuan, it's definitely a trap!"
"For example, if I'm a seventh-tier Low Grade Spirit Treasure, I'd need to absorb about a hundred seventh-tier Low Grade Spirit Treasures to advance to a seventh-tier Medium Grade Spirit Treasure!" Little Qian said guiltily.
"What? A hundred pieces? And only to raise one minor grade?" Su Yuan was dumbfounded.
No wonder this old fellow never mentioned this function; he was worried that if he heard it, he would just abandon it!
Su Yuan looked at the two small mountains of spoils of war and immediately spotted a Cauldron among them!
He extended his true essence to form a large hand, grabbed it out, and examined it in front of him.
Little Qian commented, "A third-tier Low Grade Treasure Artifact Cauldron, it can be used for Alchemy or Artifact Refining."
Su Yuan nodded, "A good Cauldron. Do you want it?"
Little Qian's voice was full of joy, "I want it."
"No rush," Su Yuan said with a smile.
Little Qian rolled his eyes.
"Hahaha!" Xiao Li next to him laughed, wagging her tail wildly.
Su Yuan, meanwhile, picked up the small Cauldron and began refining it.
A large amount of true essence rapidly surged into it, and after a full half-hour of continuous consumption, he finally refined this Cauldron.
Su Yuan looked at the Cauldron in front of him, then glanced at the dejected small bowl not far away, deep in thought.
At this moment, he suddenly realized an anomaly: the special abilities the myriad treasures universe cauldron had acquired so far were only 'changing aura' and 'Bigu Elixir' (Valley Spirit Liquid), which came from a large number of 'Bigu Dan' (Valley Pills).
What about the abilities it had acquired from other treasures before? Why hadn't he seen any of them?
Even if it was damaged, it shouldn't be so thorough; at least the main functions of the myriad treasures universe cauldron were still there, it could still absorb divine charm and refine treasures!
Therefore, there was only one truth!
'He is not the original spirit of the myriad treasures universe cauldron; he is the former master of the myriad treasures universe cauldron!'
Su Yuan's mind was extremely active, and he immediately thought of this possibility!
'For some reason, he seized the body of his own Spirit, becoming the new Spirit of the myriad treasures universe cauldron, which is why his speech sounds both naive and very ancient!'
'This also explains why the myriad treasures universe cauldron is like a blank slate, with all its original functions of refining other treasures gone, leaving only the two most basic abilities, because the core has been replaced.'
'Why is he so eager to refine treasures to recover? Because he still hasn't accepted his fate and plans to escape once he recovers! As long as he's not fully refined, he still has a chance to use the artifact as his body and become a human again?'
Thinking of this, Su Yuan also understood why Little Qian suddenly seemed anxious again. It was probably because he just realized that Su Yuan's strength exceeded his predictions!
Previously, Su Yuan's Realm was only Foundation Establishment. Refining a seventh-tier Spirit Treasure, even a damaged one, would have been impossible in a short time. But now, Su Yuan's cultivation was skyrocketing, so this guy panicked!
Su Yuan secretly observed the myriad treasures universe cauldron. Even now, this Little Qian hadn't manifested as a Spirit, but rather hid in the core, claiming injury. This old fellow was clearly afraid of exposure!
Also, before, when refining a large number of Low Grade items, it could have refined the myriad treasures universe cauldron faster, but Little Qian recommended he refine higher-quality items. While that increased the Spirit Treasure's recovery speed, the refining efficiency decreased!
How could a dignified seventh-tier Spirit Treasure Spirit not understand the pros and cons?
'Old Sixth, Old Sixth, it's a pity you're just a Spirit now, you can't stir up any waves!'
The reason he suddenly thought of this was precisely because he had personally witnessed how difficult it was to kill a Spirit Transformation Cultivator. The owner of a seventh-tier Spirit Treasure should normally be a Body Integration Realm Cultivator, above Void Refining!
Wouldn't that make them even harder to kill?
Su Yuan muttered a few words to himself, then activated the Cauldron and began to try Artifact Refining!
The myriad treasures universe cauldron floated over, curiously asking, "What are you going to refine?"
"I'm going to refine a first-tier Low Grade Spirit Gathering Pearl!" Su Yuan said with a smile.
"Oh, that's pretty easy!" Little Qian nodded, "A Spirit Gathering Pearl only needs to be upgraded once to gain a divine charm. Refining this is quite good!"
"I think so too!" Su Yuan nodded with a smile.
He threw some fire-attributed spirit minerals into the Cauldron and used his true essence to burn flames for refining. With his Alchemy experience, Artifact Refining was actually easier to get started with.
Under his control, the spirit minerals gradually formed a bead. Su Yuan's Divine Sense controlled his true essence, entering the bead to engrave the Spirit Gathering array patterns.
In a breath's time, a Spirit Gathering Pearl was successfully refined!
He opened the Cauldron.
The bead flew out of the Cauldron, and a divine charm simultaneously flew into the myriad treasures universe cauldron.
Little Qian smiled, "Now the qiankun cauldron also has a spirit-gathering effect, but it's very weak. You can try refining second-tier Low Grade spirit beads; the effect will be more obvious."
"No rush!" Su Yuan waved his hand with a smile.
He could feel that his degree of refining the myriad treasures universe cauldron had deepened somewhat, yet the grade that the myriad treasures universe cauldron could display remained a first-tier High Grade, completely unmoved.
This situation was exactly to his liking.
After Su Yuan's first successful refinement, he became much more familiar with the process.
This time, he threw a large number of various-attributed Materials into the Cauldron one by one for refining. Under the scorching of his flames, the Impurities in these spirit minerals were gradually refined, becoming purer.
Five large masses of refined Materials had formed.
Then, under the control of his Divine Sense, some of the wood, earth, water, and metal Materials were separated. Each attribute Material formed an independent bead, and Spirit Gathering runes were inscribed within them. In this way, wood-attributed Spirit Gathering Pearls, earth-attributed Spirit Gathering Pearls, water-attributed Spirit Gathering Pearls, and metal-attributed Spirit Gathering Pearls were refined one by one!
With a casual wave, these four spirit beads flew out first, and four divine charms of equal size flew out, merging into the myriad treasures universe cauldron.
Little Qian said in surprise, "Spirit Gathering Pearls of different attributes indeed provide complete divine charm, but that's all. You can refine Medium Grade Spirit Gathering Pearls now!"
"That's not necessarily true!"
Su Yuan shook his head.
"Hmm?"
From the five masses of refined spirit mineral essence, Su Yuan extracted two types of raw Materials from each and merged them, then unified the two with Spirit Gathering array patterns.
Subsequently, 10 dual-attributed Spirit Gathering Pearls flew out of the Cauldron, once again providing ten equal portions of divine charm.
Little Qian fell silent.
Next, three Materials were merged together, and similarly, 10 beads flew out.
Little Qian's eyelids twitched.
It seemed to recall the hundred-flavor Valley Pills from before. It realized that Su Yuan was about to do something big!
Sure enough, just as Little Qian expected, after gaining experience, Su Yuan began to use various Materials for proportioning, refining brand new types of Spirit Gathering Pearls!
There were countless Low Grade Artifact Refining Materials! Any proportion would become a completely new type of Spirit Gathering Pearl!
At the same time, there were many kinds of Spirit Gathering runes, and combining them randomly could create more complex and diverse Spirit Gathering runes!
Moreover, the attributes of the Materials were not limited to just the Five Elements; there were also wind, thunder, lightning, yin, yang, ice, darkness, and so on. More combinations were possible, and these combined Materials didn't need to have equal quantities. A little more of this, a little less of that, what was needed was randomness, what was needed was doing as one pleased.
Precisely because the first-tier Low Grade Spirit Gathering Pearl was low-level, there was more room for choice, the refining speed was fast, and the success rate was practically one hundred percent!
And there was no need to think, it wouldn't break the Labor and Rest Combination resting time at all.
Su Yuan thus spent two full months refining Spirit Gathering Pearls in the Immortal Abode, ignoring everything else.
On this day, with the completion of a full-attribute Spirit Gathering Pearl.
A divine charm merged into the myriad treasures universe cauldron.
All the core Restrictions within the myriad treasures universe cauldron were refined by Su Yuan!
