A flash of brilliance crossed Little Fool's eyes. His adorable face portrayed a focused look.
The average Bronze-ranked Spirit Treasure did not exceed more than three star treasures, However, the naturally picky Little Fool did not even bother looking at these 'trash'.
The first treasure that he refined was the Umbrella Handle. He chose a treasure called the Lacerta Dark Bronze Rod from the Lacerta Constellation which was Bronze-ranked. The copper rod was quickly wrapped in Graceful Cold Flame, which flowed like white ice sand gravel that grinded the bronze rod.
Little Fool was fully focused on controlling the Graceful Cold Flame aura that was surrounding the rod. The martial spirit in a bronze ranked treasure was not very strong and there were several impurities that he needed to refine to reach a stronger purity. Only then will it upgrade in quality.
The unwavering Graceful Cold Flame radiated an air of chilliness.
Little Fool looked as though he was sleeping, as time crawled, he consumed a few Star Rocks. He was slightly nervous as he did not expect that level of difficulty in refining a Spirit Treasure. Now he knew why Spirit Treasures were so expensive. In terms of purity, the energy in his body could not be compared to saints, but in terms of the quantity of energy, the saints could not catch up to him.
Despite possessing such a surge in internal energy, he quickly realized that his energy was not able to keep up. He could not imagine how the other Saints would be able to do it. The Graceful Cold Flame was merely an entry level refining spirit technique with a spirit value that was worth 10 points. For higher levels of refining spirit techniques, the energy would be exhausted at a much faster rate and the exhaustion lasts much longer as well.
Upon seeing this, Ya Ya swiftly placed more Star Rocks right in front of Little Fool. Within moments, Star Rocks were piling right in front of Little Fool.
After transporting the Star Rocks, Ya Ya sat quietly beside Little Fool.
Within the white Graceful Cold Flame, the bronze rod slowly grew thin. Little Fool consumed 2 more Star Rocks. As the impurities were slowly phased out, the bronze rod grew glossy and smooth, radiating a dazzling light aura, and unexpectedly produced a crystalline texture.
As Little Fool fanned away the Graceful Cold Flame, a small palm-sized bronze rod that fit his hand appeared. As Little Fool's hands were too small, he was also rather helpless. The rod was as slim as chopstick. Small translucent crystals were formed on the rod's surface. Black stripes wrapped around the bronze rod which made it look like an ice-cold gecko. Two devilish red spots appeared on the rod like a pair of cold red pupils.
Little Fool was rather satisfied with his creation. The Graceful Cold Flame was certainly the right choice to be a reliable refining spirit technique, At least it would be worth quite a bit if the rod was sold. Under the light, the rod was aesthetically pleasing.
If one could master the refining spirit technique even more, the quality of the weapon will be even better. The Graceful Cold Flame that was worth 10 points of spirit value, to be able to do this was relatively impressive.
Little Fool's spirit had reached 80 points. Blink took 10 points while Graceful Cold Flame took another 10 points. There were still 60 points of space. The spirit technique for the Ursa Major Stars Umbrella required his own comprehension. Since the Ursa Major Stars Umbrella had a large potential in terms of its power, he decided to reserve 30 points of his spirit value.
This meant that he only had 30 points of spirit value left.
Most people had the problem of not having enough Spirit Value to practice new Spirit Techniques. But he was the opposite, he had a large reserve of Spirit Value but did not have any spirit techniques to learn.
There was nothing for him to complain about.
Little Fool was determined that once everything was over, he would try to master refining spirit treasures and earn big bucks from it. For the plans of the future, if he were to let the fool handle it, he would be dragged down into the abyss.
That cannot happen!
This situation cannot continue like this!
One cannot just give up on his ambitions!
Little Fool clasped his tiny fists tightly. He slowly released his grip as he realized this was only the start. He randomly selected 12 arrow darts. These were bronze treasures from Sagitta Constellation called the 4 Seasons Arrow. For every season, there were three arrow darts.
He threw the 12 arrow darts into the Graceful Cold Flame.
The chilling Graceful Cold Flame wrapped around the arrow darts as they were slowly sharpened by the aura. The darts became more translucent and slimmer. The body of the Spring Arrow was like a soft green jadeite while the Summer Arrow was like a refined red crystal that radiated a soft warm aura. The Autumn Arrow was like a mature yellow wheat while the Winter Arrow was like a cold white icicle.
Little Fool inspected every single one of them for any flaws. After ensuring their perfection, he let out a soft smile.
He was certainly very picky.
The structure of the Umbrella was completed.
Next up was the surface of the Umbrella. Little Fool selected the Lake Shadow Cloak, a bronze treasure from Cygnus Constellation as the material for the Umbrella's surface. When refining a treasure from the Cygnus Constellation with the Graceful Cold Flame, it took half the usual energy required which Little Fool could clearly feel.
The completion of Umbrella's surface made Little Fool feel satisfied. The snow white surface looked like the reflection of a lake as one could see the ripples that were flowing across the surface.
After finishing 3 parts of the Umbrella, Little Fool did not continue immediately with his work as he sat cross-legged and mused. Even though refining the Umbrella's parts was not difficult and just polishing his technique, he took it as a warm-up exercise. Although he held absolute confidence in himself, he was never complacent.
Ya Ya looked at Little Fool in awe as Little Fool was floating mid-air despite sitting cross-legged and resting.
As Little Fool was refining the spirit treasures, Tang Tian and Bing were preparing for the upcoming battle.
Bing did not use the 09 Bronze. After communicating with Sai Lei, Bing managed to order a newly researched material from Sai Lei, which was called the Crystal Copper.
This time Bing brought a crystal copper box, which was the size of a mung bean and had a glossy smooth surface, which was unlike other bronze materials that were much darker. But it still did not look very promising.
Tang Tian looked at the box in front of him that contained remnant pieces of spirit treasures and realized something important. He then said: "How am I able to bring the imprint out?"
Bing was slightly taken aback as he touched chin and mused: "This is definitely a problem. Could we eat it? Should we try it? Why not, you try it? I think the spirit treasures might taste good. It might even be delicious!"
Tang Tian was surprised: "Eat.... Hey, Uncle, are you alright..."
"If you can think of another method, I don't mind trying." Bing waved his hands and he looked on impatiently: "Would you want our grand plan to end prematurely?"
"You guys need the imprints in the spirit treasures huh?" Cang Yang Yu suddenly asked.
"Yes." Bing nodded: "Do you have any other ideas?"
"Maybe I can give it a try." Cang Yang Yu replied: "After I transformed into a spirit, I have no power over physical entities. But my power to control spiritual entities such as energy has vastly increased."
Cang Yang Yu waved his palm out at the one of the remnant piece of spirit treasures, which suddenly flew towards him. He turned towards Bing: "Is the outer shell useful?"
"Nope!" Bing shook his head.
Cang Yang Yu nodded, he remained silent. A layer of fog descended and rapidly permeated the treasures. Bright rays suddenly radiated from his eyes. A dim ball of light that was shrouded with mist suddenly appeared.
Bing was roused by this and pointed towards Tang Tian: "Push the imprint into his body."
Suddenly, the ball of light penetrated into Tang Tian's body.
Tang Tian eyes gaped wide open, before he could react, rays of light burst out from Tang Tian's body, A tornado imprint appeared on Tang Tian's palm.
"Seal it inside the Crystal Copper Box!" Bing shouted.
Tang Tian thought of that notion, and felt a strand of energy flowing out of his finger tips and into the Crystal Copper Box. A tornado imprint appeared on the box.
Bing whistled in excitement: "Success!"
Cang Yang Yu floated over and asked: "What is this?"
"This is the Origin Mark Box!" Bing was excited as he pointed towards Tang Tian: "This guy has a Zero Energy Body, and his body will fiercely repel anything that has energy. Once these imprints are rid of energy, they will then become Origin Marks. By sealing this Origin Mark inside the Crystal Copper Box, it will then become the Origin Mark Box."
"That's interesting. Zero Energy Body..." Cang Yang Yu mused: "That's right. If a spirit transformation is completely transforming the body into energy, then there are bound to be entities with zero energy. Origin Mark... What a good name. This method of comprehension, although it might be slightly difficult, but it is even more direct, no energy for confusion, this further reaches to the essence of the law."
Cang Yang Yu was talking to himself.
"Who knows." Bing said: "We need to speed this up. Time is running out."
Tang Tian picked up another copper box as he wanted to seal the knife imprint inside. However, once the energy current touched the copper box, a hissing sound tore through the silence as the copper box started twisting before being destroyed.
Everyone was shocked.
The energy currents suddenly got absorbed back into Tang Tian's body, before becoming a knife imprint again.
Tang Tian did not believe he could not do it as he took up another copper box. Another hissing sound ensued before the box was twisted and completely destroyed.
"Looks like this knife imprint is not ordinary." Bing sighed: "Your luck is extraordinary."
Tang Tian wanted to try again but Bing stopped him: "first clear all these remnant pieces of spirit treasures!"
Little Fool looked at the products in front of him and was pleased at his own creation.
The exquisite and enchanting Umbrella's handle, with its black stripes along with 2 bright red pupils fitted in Little Fool's palm perfectly. The 12 arrow darts dotted the skeleton of the Umbrella that kept changing within the seasons. Its surface was like an art piece, with ripple-like waves flowing across a snowy mountain. What was most beautiful, was the sky full of stars above the snowy mountain, which was also reflected in the lake's surface.
Little Fool managed to infuse stars into this spirit treasure. After seeing this treasure, no one will expect it to be the Ursa Major Stars Umbrella. But Little Fool would be able to use the variations of the Ursa Major Stars Umbrella.
Little Fool was confident with his first treasure as he asked himself: "What should I name you?"
After hearing this, Ya Ya rushed over and started gesturing non-stop.
Little Fool understood Ya Ya's meaning and shook his head: "No I can't!"
Ya Ya Umbrella? With such an impressive creation, how can it be coupled with such a name?
Ya Ya was agitated as he jumped non-stop in front of Little Fool and started whining.
Little Fool was impatient but he could understand Ya Ya's disappointment.
I had treated you so well, Little Fool, how could you not even name it after me. Will we still be able to have fun together? Do you still treat me as a brother? Is the name that big of an importance that our relationship is is worth nothing? I have even given you my food how can you treat me like this. How can a spirit general be like this...
Little Fool remembered the pile of Star Rocks that Ya Ya helped to accumulate.
"Fine then, I shall name it the Ya Ya Umbrella."
Little Fool said weakly, his childish voice filled with helplessness. Why are the surrounding people around the fool, even the bud Spirit General was also a...
Ya Ya let out a soft smile and hopped towards Little Fool's side and carried him on its back. Then it flew him around the martial spirit chamber as he shouted excitedly.
After sensing the excitement from Ya Ya, Little Fool somehow grew happier.
Okay then, even though he could not name his creation after something that he wanted, it will still be a significant accomplishment.
At least he was sponsored with the Star Rocks...
This was the only way to think about it.
