In "Luminous Azure Light," a Mountain-Cleaving Axe rose slowly and strangely from a pile of Weapons and Treasures, proudly ascending into the air, suspended beneath a massive Bronze Lamp, showcasing its brilliant front to the three individuals.
All three gasped in awe.
What a majestic giant axe!
The axe and its handle were seamlessly integrated, formed in one piece! It measured a full ten feet in length, and the blade was as large as a vat, shining brightly with a deep blue-black hue, adorned with ancient golden patterns. These patterns flickered in and out of view, almost alive as they danced across the surface of the axe, representing a long-lost supreme ancient formation etched within.
This is a Celestial Artifact! Li Hong recognized it at once, noting the extraordinary craftsmanship. Compared to its forging technique, his own skills felt like child's play, leaving him utterly embarrassed.
Chuxiong was instantly smitten, shouting, "I must have it!" He rushed forward without hesitation, reaching out with his palm the size of a fan to grasp the axe's handle.
The Mountain-Cleaving Axe swayed slightly before suddenly leaping up, striking down towards Chuxiong with the force of a mountain.
The sound of rushing wind filled the room, and an overwhelming pressure pierced through their lungs, making it hard to breathe.
Li Hong exclaimed in alarm, "Second brother, be careful!"
Chuxiong had not anticipated that the giant axe would resist him. In a moment of crisis, his competitive spirit surged; he shouted loudly and reached out with his fan-sized hand to directly grasp the descending sharp blade.
He actually caught this colossal axe's strike with his bare hands.
The downward momentum of the giant axe halted abruptly. Chuxiong's muscles bulged as he felt living masses writhing on his arms. His feet began to sink into the hard stone floor—an inch, two inches...
Li Hong and Chu Xi stared in disbelief. The Treasury was eerily quiet except for Chuxiong's heavy breathing. Drops of blood flowed from Chuxiong's hands gripping the blade, falling to the ground and pooling on top of various treasures.
A flash of Azure Light appeared, followed by another beam of golden light... The treasures beneath Chuxiong that were touched by his blood began to rise automatically, swirling in front of him. There were Flying Swords, knives, and other strange yet clearly valuable artifacts that seemed to shout, "Master, we are here!"
Yet Chuxiong did not even blink; his tiger-like eyes widened as he fixated intently on the Mountain-Cleaving Axe before him.
One person with an axe was in a stalemate, and the wound on Chuxiong's hand was getting deeper, blood flowing faster, creating a small pool of blood at his feet.
Chu Xi couldn't bear it. Just as she took a step forward, Li Hong reached out to stop her: "Don't move! This is a critical moment. As long as we get past this, the Divine Axe will belong to Chuxiong!"
Time was passing. Li Hong was worried, but his keen senses had already detected that the ancient patterns engraved on the giant axe were flashing more frequently. This meant that Chuxiong was about to pass the test of this Celestial Artifact with an Artifact Spirit.
Sure enough, moments later, a flash of Azure Light appeared, and the blood on the axe's surface vanished. Following that, the Heavenly Axe suddenly shrank and quietly hovered in front of Chuxiong. Compared to its previous imposing size, the divine axe now looked like a delicate toy.
Chuxiong was overjoyed and immediately grasped the axe handle, channeling spiritual energy to complete the bonding process. With another flash of Azure Light, the divine axe vanished into the Baihui point atop Chuxiong's head.
Chuxiong turned around happily: "Big Brother, I did it!"
"Well done! Now you should collect those treasures that accidentally got your blood on them!" Li Hong laughed heartily. "Congratulations, Second Brother! You've really struck gold this time. A Divine Axe and a bunch of Superior Spirit Artifacts—collect them all quickly!"
"Alright!" Chuxiong didn't even bother to bandage his wound and eagerly gathered various treasures that were swirling in front of him into his Dantian for nurturing.
He actually collected a Celestial Artifact and fifteen Superior Spirit Artifacts in one go! Overjoyed, he began to play with the divine axe, repeatedly summoning it and putting it away. Soon he frowned and exclaimed, "I can't do it anymore; I'm out of spiritual energy!" He then started popping Supplementary Spirit Pills.
Li Hong felt relieved and turned to Chu Xi with a smile: "You should hurry and choose too. As for me, I've already decided—we need to find a good storage treasure!"
Chu Xi smiled lightly, extending her jade-white palm to brush through her hair, looking extremely graceful. "No rush; we have plenty of time."
Even after falling into Treasure Mountain, her demeanor remained composed.
Li Hong's heart stirred unexpectedly, and he found himself having some flirtatious thoughts. He quickly lowered his head to hide it while searching for treasures he desired within Treasure Mountain.
The Heavenly Torch had not "slept" at all and called out: "Silly boy, just a storage bag isn't enough! Hurry up; I sense there are still many Celestial Artifacts here! We need to collect all the Celestial Artifacts here! No, just Celestial Artifacts aren't enough; let's take all the treasures here! Damn it, why am I still a Spirit and can't have a true body! You must reserve some treasures for me to use when I come out..."
He kept rambling on, making Li Hong feel like he wanted to sever their Divine Consciousness connection but held back. However, it was indeed necessary to reserve some good items for Heavenly Torch and his fellow disciples. With that thought in mind, he muttered under his breath: "Alright, old brother, stop shouting! I'll keep an eye out for you!"
The three of them rummaged through Treasure Mountain. Chu Xi suddenly paused, and Li Hong had yet to find a satisfactory storage artifact. Seeing this, he flew over and asked, "What did you find?"
"Look, it's so beautiful!" Chu Xi gazed intently at something at her feet.
It was a crystal-clear Azure Lotus. It was hard to tell whether it was a Celestial Artifact or a Superior Spirit Artifact, but it certainly looked stunning. Its entire body shimmered blue, resembling a crystal carving. Initially, it appeared dull and lifeless under the weight of many artifacts, but once those artifacts were removed, it began to emit a faint blue glow. Chu Xi's fair and beautiful face was illuminated by the blue light.
One person and one flower reflected each other, both incredibly beautiful.
"If you like it, take it," Li Hong said with a smile, reaching down to pick up the Azure Lotus and placing it in Chu Xi's hands.
"Don't you think it looks somewhat similar to the holy artifact of the Star Sect Water Saint?" Even though she adored it, Chu Xi didn't forget her analytical side and began to ponder as she held it.
"Now that you mention it, there is indeed some resemblance," Li Hong agreed. He extended his Divine Consciousness towards the Azure Lotus, only to find it resisted him. He thought for a moment and said, "This Azure Lotus is extraordinary; it must have an Artifact Spirit. As far as I know, some artifacts hide their form and abilities after their master leaves or passes away, making it difficult for others to discern their level. If I'm not mistaken, this Azure Lotus might be a divine artifact."
"A divine artifact!" Chu Xi exclaimed in surprise. Even Chuxiong ran over to stare at the Azure Lotus in her hands.
"There’s only one way to find out; try to take it in, and then you'll know," Li Hong suggested.
Chu Xi nodded gently, agreeing with this approach. It was evident she felt a bit nervous, seemingly worried that the Azure Lotus would not recognize her as its master.
Li Hong gave her a reassuring look of encouragement and silently stood behind her. "Go ahead; you don't have to be afraid with me here."
Chu Xi bit her middle finger and let a drop of blood fall onto the Azure Lotus.
Suddenly, an unexpected change occurred. Almost as soon as the blood touched the Azure Lotus, it flashed brightly like lightning, filling the room with blue light. Startled, Chu Xi nearly dropped the Azure Lotus.
However, the Azure Lotus floated up on its own and then vanished into her Baihui point on her forehead. A small Azure Lotus appeared between her eyebrows.
She stood there in a daze, unconsciously reaching up to touch her forehead, her face filled with confusion.
Li Hong asked urgently, "What happened?"
"It... seems familiar... like I've seen it somewhere before..." Chu Xi was in a daze, her face turning somewhat pale.
"Is it really a divine artifact?" Chuxiong was most concerned about this and quickly asked the way.
"It should be, it seems like it, but... I'm not sure!"
Li Hong grew worried and reached out to touch Chu Xi's forehead.
On the smooth, fair skin of Chu Xi's forehead, just above the center of her brows, a small Azure Lotus was slightly raised, feeling three-dimensional to the touch. Paired with Chu Xi's beautiful white face, it looked like an exquisite floral tattoo, incredibly beautiful.
"It has recognized its master, but I can't use it for now, and it hasn't told me any information. What is going on?" Chu Xi murmured as she asked the way.
Li Hong took her delicate hand and said cheerfully, "Got it! It's either a Celestial Artifact or a divine artifact. It seems you've struck gold this time! When I received Yue Que, I had the same feeling; there’s no doubt about it! Don't overthink it; from my experience, it's definitely a good thing."
"Exactly! Big brother's words are definitely right. Congratulations! This treasure is not only a divine artifact but also looks quite nice and unique on your forehead," Chuxiong chuckled.
The words from Chuxiong and Li Hong completely reassured Chu Xi. She smiled brightly and said, "That's the best news." Saying this, she took out a small Crystal Mirror from her sleeve to admire her beauty. Indeed, she found herself beautiful, and her sweet smile became even more genuine.
That delicate beauty resembling a Flower Beauty was complemented by the blue shimmering lotus on her forehead, truly like a snow mountain fairy descending from a glacier.
"Let's keep searching for treasures!" Chuxiong shouted and began rummaging through Treasure Mountain again. Soon he called out, "Big brother, come here! Look what I've found!"
Li Hong glanced at what was in Chuxiong's hand and felt excited. He laughed, "Big brother is too polite!"
Without hesitation, Chuxiong handed it over: "Here you go!"
Li Hong laughed heartily: "Truly good brothers!"
It was exactly the storage bag that had been sought for a long time! Li Hong, while overjoyed, felt a bit worried. His cultivation was of a special Awareness type, and he had a physique devoid of the five elements. Not every treasure could be integrated into his body; it all depended on luck!
This was an ordinary-looking storage bag, worn to the point of being comparable to the Cosmic Bag. It was dark and dull, only the size of a child's palm. Li Hong tentatively infused his Awareness into it, and after just a short moment, he exclaimed in delight, "Thank you, Second Brother! This is indeed a great treasure!"
After much searching with no success, this treasure came effortlessly! Crafted by the Ancient God, it was the most suitable storage artifact for his physique. It looked unremarkable but was truly a Celestial Artifact.
Li Hong quickly recognized it as his own, and with ease, he succeeded in bonding with it in the blink of an eye, laughing joyfully: "This thing is simply tailor-made for me; it's amazing!"
The storage bag had no other functions, but just the ability to conceal things in the Upper Dantian made it priceless.
When Li Hong probed into the storage bag with his Divine Consciousness, he discovered that it wasn't empty inside. There lay a White Jade Box all alone in the space, containing a Silk Scroll.
The style of this Silk Scroll seemed familiar; it resembled the ancient text he had seen before called the Six Spirit Salty Ritual. Li Hong's heart raced as he retrieved the Silk Scroll from the storage bag and held it in his hands.
Delicate flames of golden light began to emanate from the Silk Scroll, making it shimmer as if crafted from gold. Li Hong firmly held both ends and pulled it open.
