Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 295 Black Ruyi
The magic that Gu Xiaoxing thought of was... the Soul Binding Rope!
Speaking of which, the Soul Binding Rope magic has helped Gu Xiaoxing escape danger many times. When his cultivation was still in the Qi Condensation stage, the Soul Binding Rope was burned because of passing through the sea of fire. Although it was later reborn with the help of the sea of fire, it broke again when Lei Yuntian fought against Cang Jiuding.
For a long time, Gu Xiaoxing has not refined the Soul Binding Rope again. Firstly, he is now very powerful and has many means to use. Secondly, ordinary Soul Binding Ropes are no longer useful to him as he lacks a furnace that can forge his spiritual power to a sufficient strength.
Now even the Nascent Soul can’t stand this horrific sea of fire. Wouldn’t it be perfect to use it to forge the Spirit Rope?
Thinking of this, Gu Xiaoxing did not hesitate to condense a part of his own cultivation, put it into the sea of fire and began to temper it. This was the third time that Gu Xiaoxing had refined the Soul Binding Rope, and he was very familiar with it.
Coupled with this astonishing sea of fire, it was like a natural forge, which made the refining of Gu Xiaoxing progress very quickly.
When he first refined the Soul Binding Rope, Gu Xiaoxing was still in the process of condensing his Qi. He only used the cultivation of his upper dantian to refine one hundred and eight layers of concentrated spiritual power.
When refining the Soul Binding Rope for the second time, Gu Xiaoxing reached the foundation-building stage and used the cultivation of his upper and middle dantians to refine two hundred and sixteen layers of concentrated spiritual power.
And now, when he was refining the Soul Binding Rope for the third time, Gu Xiaoxing had already become a Jindan cultivator. He began to try to integrate the cultivation of the upper, middle and lower dantians together, and to refine three hundred and twenty-four layers of concentrated spiritual power.
In the end, he succeeded!
Gu Xiaoxing looked at the gray spiritual power ball in front of him, which had been tempered and could not be shaken even by the terrifying sea of fire. There was a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Gu Xiaoxing could sense that the concentrated spiritual power was already very strong. If it was shaped into a spiritual rope, it should be enough to withstand the raging fire here. But Gu Xiaoxing wondered if it could be even stronger?
So, he took out a large piece of... innate black gold!
A palm-sized piece of innate black gold is equivalent to millions of high-grade spirit stones, and the piece that Gu Xiaoxing took out is enough to be worth tens of millions of high-grade spirit stones!
After all, this is something used to refine spiritual treasures and is extremely precious!
When this innate black gold floated out of the Danhai that enveloped Gu Xiaoxing and floated into the sea of fire, the endless high temperature melted it into a ball of black liquid. Gu Xiaoxing controlled it and merged it into the concentrated spiritual power ball.
As the black liquid was absorbed, the ball of spiritual power actually began to wriggle, and its color gradually turned darker. When the ball of spiritual power returned to calm, it had completely turned from gray to pure black, like a ball of ink, or a big black ball, floating quietly in the sea of fire.
"That should be okay, right?"
Gu Xiaoxing looked at the big black ball with some uncertainty in his heart, but his idea was indeed successful. He successfully integrated the innate black gold. He was thinking about starting the next step, shaping the big black ball and making it a spirit rope.
However, Gu Xiaoxing was shocked to find that he could not shape the big black ball. The big black ball seemed to have become a whole. No matter how he manipulated it, his shape could not change at all.
How could Gu Xiaoxing know that if a weapon refining master saw him injecting the innate black essence, he would definitely curse at him.
Such a large piece of innate black gold is enough to refine more than ten lower-grade spiritual treasures, but it was actually integrated into a ball of broken spiritual power. What a waste of resources!
The innate black refined gold is a precious material that can stimulate divinity and make spiritual treasures mixed and unified. Gu Xiaoxing added so much at one time, which would naturally make the entire ball of spiritual power completely integrated into one, and the divinity would also be thoroughly stimulated, making it several times stronger.
With Gu Xiaoxing's current strength, it is totally insufficient to reshape it.
But Gu Xiaoxing was not an equipment refiner, so he didn't understand these things. He was speechless for a moment. He wanted to refine it again, but not only would so much innate black gold be wasted, he also couldn't hold on for so long under the sea of fire.
In the end, Gu Xiaoxing gritted his teeth and simply skipped the shaping step and started directly carving the secret runes.
The divine consciousness turned into a sharp knife and began to carve continuously. Gradually, tiny secret symbols and divine patterns appeared densely on the surface of the big black ball.
In fact, Gu Xiaoxing had already prepared himself for failure. After all, this was completely different from refining the Soul Binding Rope. If it really didn't work, he could only return to the shore to recover and then come down to refine it again.
But when Gu Xiaoxing finished the last stroke and countless secret symbols and divine patterns covered every part of the big black ball, the big black ball suddenly shook, and a wonderful connection was formed with Gu Xiaoxing.
"Successfully...successfully?"
Even Gu Xiaoxing himself couldn't believe it. He raised his hand slightly, and with a thought, the big black ball in the sea of fire immediately flew over, shrank and flew into his palm.
Gu Xiaoxing looked at the ball in his palm and couldn't help but feel a little strange. He was refining the Soul Binding Rope, but how come he ended up with something like this?
The pill looked like a pure black pill covered with fine runes. Gu Xiaoxing felt clearly that although this was not a soul-binding rope, he could still fully control it.
With another thought, the black ball floated up, then expanded, and finally turned into a black cover that completely covered Gu Xiaoxing. Outsiders could not see clearly inside, but Gu Xiaoxing inside could clearly see the outside.
After a moment of hesitation, Gu Xiaoxing slowly withdrew the Nine Seas Technique. Endless flames came at him, but were completely blocked by the black cover and could not pass through at all.
“ So effective?”
Gu Xiaoxing's eyes lit up, he didn't expect that this black cover looked ordinary, but with countless runes flowing on it, it could easily block the sea of fire. The defense was so strong that it even exceeded his Nine Seas Technique!
"You're so black... and you can change your size as you wish. Hmm... I'll just call you Black Ruyi."
Gu Xiaoxing was very satisfied. As his mind went on, the Black Ruyi expanded immediately, ten feet, a hundred feet, a thousand feet...
Suddenly, under this sea of fire, a huge black sphere appeared, and all the flames were isolated outside, unable to spread or penetrate at all.
Gu Xiaoxing stood in the Black Ruyi with a look of ease. He no longer needed to expend his vast cultivation to practice the Nine Seas Technique to resist the sea of fire, as the Black Ruyi could completely resist it.
Then, Gu Xiaoxing looked at a place with ill intentions and said lightly: "It's your turn!"
In this black Ruyi, there is not only Gu Xiaoxing, but also the innate talisman!
Under Gu Xiaoxing's intention, Hei Ruyi did not isolate the innate talisman, but enveloped it. In this way, it would be convenient to take action, right?
Taking a step forward, Gu Xiaoxing appeared directly in front of the innate talisman. The talisman immediately responded, with dozens of red flames surrounding it, protecting itself instinctively.
But now Gu Xiaoxing no longer needed to resist the sea of fire. He attacked with all his strength and easily defeated the red flames. He then began to refine the innate talisman!
