Following a Hundred Years of Cultivation, I'm dying Before I Got Cheats

Upon arriving at his secluded cultivation chamber, Jiang Chengxuan immediately started observing a master refine weapons. This observation was unique in that it harnessed the observer’s spirit. Thus, when Jiang Chengxuan came back to the real world, only a moment had passed, but his mastery over artifact refinement had reached a new height.

He turned to Shen Ruyan beside him and said with a smile, “Ruyan, let’s begin.”

“Okay,” Shen Ruyan responded with a nod.

The two then started refining the materials laid out before them, as they had previously discussed.

This process lasted for more than half a year. After they had refined the two most crucial materials, the Sun Crystal and the Eternal Heaven Crystal, another year had passed.

They were now at the most critical step in forging the Eternal Sun Furnace, especially for Jiang Chengxuan.

He needed to imprint his divine sense and spiritual mark onto the treasure and use his own essence blood to establish a bond with it, akin to bloodline connection.

This is what differentiates an intrinsic Dharma treasure from ordinary ones.

Time passed day by day.

Even with Shen Ruyan’s help, it took several more years for Jiang Chengxuan to complete the final step in refining the Eternal Sun Furnace.

On this day.

An exceptionally brilliant golden light suddenly erupted within Jiang Chengxuan’s cave abode. Pure Sun True Fire surged out of a gigantic furnace. The terrifying might emanating from the fire could be distinctly felt, capable of incinerating all impurities and serving as the bane of all dark and evil spirits.

This was the Level 5 intrinsic True Treasure, the Eternal Sun Furnace, which Jiang Chengxuan, with Shen Ruyan’s assistance, had spent nearly five years to successfully refine.

This furnace could absorb and store a significant amount of Sun True Fire, Eternal Flames, Pure Yang True Fire, and other pure flames. Moreover, it could even advance the grade of various heavenly flames.

Even if the attributes of the heavenly flames were not compatible with the Eternal Sun Furnace, it could still be placed into the Eternal Sun Furnace to slowly nurture and improve.

Unconsciously, a smile appeared on Jiang Chengxuan’s face.

With a wave of his hand, he introduced the Ruby Flame, which was white with red hues, into the Eternal Sun Furnace. Then, he cast several spells.

The once massive Eternal Sun Furnace began to shrink rapidly, eventually becoming a small furnace the size of a bowl and gently landing in Jiang Chengxuan’s palm.

[Ding.]

At the same moment, the familiar electronic sound of the system echoed in Jiang Chengxuan’s mind.

Congratulations, host, for successfully forging your intrinsic Dharma treasure, the Eternal Sun Furnace, and obtaining the method to forge the

Wood-attribute intrinsic True Treasure, the Eastern Green Dragon Flag.

This Eastern Green Dragon Flag combined defense, array-formation, and attack in one.

Once forged, it would not only be an extremely powerful defensive treasure but also capable of instantly trapping, obstructing, and even confusing and attacking enemies.

It was the most versatile among all intrinsic Dharma treasures Jiang Chengxuan had so far.

However, forging the Eastern Green Dragon Flag was no easy feat.

The True Dragon Divine Wood, a necessary material, was exceedingly rare and only preserved within the dragon race, hardly found in the outside world.

Unless Jiang Chengxuan encountered some special opportunities, he might have to venture into the dragon lairs, a place even grand masters and Heavenly Lords dared not tread lightly.

Moreover, the refining skill required to forge this treasure needed to be at least at mid-grade Level 5, if not high-grade Level 5.

Jiang Chengxuan still had some distance to cover to reach this level.

As he pondered these issues, another notification from the system sounded in his mind.

[Ding.]

Congratulations, host, for achieving Level 5 artifact Refiner accomplishment and obtaining a Level 5 refining material, Kuihai Cloud Iron, and a Treasure Advancement Stone.

The former was a decent Level 5 refining material but of little immediate use to Jiang Chengxuan. He considered exchanging it at the upcoming Nascent Soul Trade Fair for something he or Shen Ruyan needed.

The latter, however, needed no introduction.

It could advance any of his current treasures to a Level 5 True Treasure.

After some thought, Jiang Chengxuan decided to use the Treasure Advancement Stone on his Golden Void Sword.

Buzz!

In an instant, his Golden Void Sword evolved from Level 4 to Level 5.

Seeing this unfold, Shen Ruyan was amazed.

She hadn’t expected her husband to possess such a miraculous item that could directly advance a Dharma treasure.

However, she didn’t inquire further and instead brought up another matter with Jiang Chengxuan — the issue concerning the Golden Cloud Token they retrieved from the ruins of the Golden Furnace Sect.

With this token, once their cultivation reached Nascent Soul, they could return there and undergo further trials..
