Chapter 782: They Are All Big Shots
"According to the information provided by the realm spirit, I've learned that the Happy World can be upgraded, but the method of upgrading is quite special. It needs to devour other small worlds, and the more small worlds it devours, the faster it will upgrade."
"The realms are divided into levels, such as the Mortal Realm, Minor Heavenly Realm, Immortal Realm, etc. According to the classification, the Mortal Realm is a Third Level realm, which is the most common, the Minor Heavenly Realm is a Second Level realm, somewhat advanced, and the Immortal Realm is a First Level realm, very high in rank. Besides these, there are some even higher-level realms above the Immortal Realm."
"Happy World is a Third Level realm, and if it wants to be promoted to a Second Level or a First Level realm, it must devour other small worlds."
"Where am I supposed to find small worlds!" Gao Fei complained with a bitter smile. "This really puts me in a tough spot."
Forget it! I'll take it one step at a time. If I have the chance to come across small worlds in the future, I'll snatch them for Happy World to devour.
The Thousand Transformations Stone is the carrier of Happy World; they complement each other. To put it simply, the Thousand Transformations Stone is the mother, and Happy World is the child; they are connected by blood and cannot be separated from each other. If the level of Happy World increases, the level of the Thousand Transformations Stone will also be raised.
"The realm spirit also provided some information about the Thousand Transformations Stone," Gao Fei noted.
"The Thousand Transformations Stone can change its shape according to different attributes; these so-called attributes refer to the elements of nature, such as metal, wood, water, fire, earth…"
"Hmm, let's give it a try."
Gao Fei wrapped the Thousand Transformations Stone with his mental power: "Change! Transform into a treasure of metal attribute!"
"Swoosh!"
The Thousand Transformations Stone rapidly changed, turning into a shining Da Dao with a blade exuding a strong metal attribute aura in an instant.
"What a nice sword!" Gao Fei grasped the hilt and swung it a few times, leaving several white streaks in the air: "What a sword! Truly a fine sword indeed!"
"Keep changing! Transform into a treasure of wood attribute."
"Swoosh!"
The golden Da Dao in his hand turned into a staff, emitting a strong wood attribute aura.
"Continue! Transform into a treasure of water attribute."
"Swoosh!"
The wooden staff shifted quickly, becoming a Short Sword in the blink of an eye, with the blade emitting a strong water attribute aura.
…
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
Under Gao Fei's control, the Thousand Transformations Stone kept changing: a gourd with fire attribute, a shield with earth attribute, boots with wind attribute, a curved knife with ice attribute, a Long Spear with thunder attribute…
Gao Fei felt somewhat unsatisfied, directing the Thousand Transformations Stone to change into treasures with multiple attributes.
A moment later, Gao Fei gave up, "No, it's too complicated, too difficult to handle, mainly because my cultivation is too low to support the Thousand Transformations Stone in completing more complex transformations." As he said this, Gao Fei exhaled a breath of frustration: "I can only wait until my cultivation level rises before I can further understand the Thousand Transformations Stone."
"I've studied the Thousand Transformations Stone enough for now; time to look into other things." Gao Fei put away the Thousand Transformations Stone and then took out four bones, which he had obtained from the Myriad Buddhas Sect. These four bones were placed in a super large formation at the time—one bone was hidden in the fire, one in the water, one in the fierce wind, and the last one in the sandstorm.
At the time, Gao Fei had to put in quite a bit of effort to obtain these four bones.
"These four bones are extremely hard, and not small in size either. They should be good enough to refine a Spiritual Treasure, right?" Gao Fei had already made up his mind to use these four eerie bones to refine a Spiritual Treasure. Hmm, Gao Fei's own refinement techniques were average, he could only look for someone else to help.
After a thorough examination, Gao Fei stored the four bones away. Then, he took out two items, one was the Bronze Coffin, and the other was Meteorite Iron. He planned to use the Meteorite Iron to repair the Bronze Coffin, a process simple enough for Gao Fei to complete alone.
By burning the Meteorite Iron with Li Fire and then pouring the molten iron over the Bronze Coffin, he spread it evenly.
This took up most of the day.
"Done! All set!" Gao Fei let out a long sigh of relief, as the Bronze Coffin had changed in appearance, turned black, became thicker, looking as though it was clad in a black coat. "As expected of Meteorite Iron, its repairing capability is just strong!" The Meteorite Iron, forged into molten iron, had sealed all the cracks in the Bronze Coffin, and it was very firm.
Finally, the repairs were complete!
Although it was not perfect, Gao Fei was quite content.
"What the hell is this thing, it stinks so much." A man's voice came from inside the Bronze Coffin.
"Ximen Lie, have you made up your mind yet?" Gao Fei said with a smile, "Help me open the passageway to the Immortal Realm, and I will return your freedom."
"I haven't decided yet."
"You haven't decided yet?" Gao Fei frowned, "Ximen Lie, I warn you, if you dare to play tricks on me, I will not spare you."
"My life is in your hands right now, where would I dare play tricks?" Ximen Lie said pitifully, "Please let me out. I'm almost going crazy inside this Bronze Coffin."
"When you find the passageway to the Immortal Realm, I will grant you your freedom." Gao Fei gestured grandly, "In!" The Bronze Coffin rapidly shrunk and turned into a mini-sized little coffin, wavering as it flew back into the storage ring.
Ximen Lie had always wanted to get out, then send a message to his original form in the Immortal Realm using special means, but damn it, Gao Fei was too cunning, never giving him a chance to get out.
"Release me, and I will help you find the entrance to the Immortal Realm," Ximen Lie said.
"Hmph!" Gao Fei snorted coldly, "Ximen Lie, I know all too well what you're thinking. If I let you out, you'll find every possible way to escape and then contact your original form in the Immortal Realm, am I right?"
"No, I've never thought about any of that," Ximen Lie vehemently denied.
"Put away your crooked thoughts, and think properly. When you come up with a way to enter the Immortal Realm, I will let you out." After saying this, Gao Fei stored the Bronze Coffin away.
In the following time, Gao Fei started to comprehend the Immortal Buddha Finger. With the help of the Little Thunder Sound Temple, Gao Fei quickly grasped the essence of the Immortal Buddha Finger, or more precisely, a small part of it. If he wanted to understand the latter part, he needed to ingratiate himself with Little Thunder Sound Temple and find some "food" for it.
Last time at the Myriad Buddhas Sect, Little Thunder Sound Temple devoured the Six True Words and then transmitted a piece of information to Gao Fei, guiding him on how to comprehend the Immortal Buddha Finger. Little Thunder Sound Temple was quite cunning, deliberately concealing a lot of information and only telling Gao Fei some basics. If Gao Fei wanted to view the later information, he must find treasures from Buddhist Sects for Little Thunder Sound Temple to devour.
"Ah..."
Gao Fei curled his lip and sighed, "You all act like big bosses! Just granting me a little benefit and making me risk my life! I really can't stand it!"
The Happy World wanted to level up and required the devouring of other smaller worlds.
If one wanted to cultivate the Immortal Buddha Finger, they had to find treasures from Buddhist Sects for the Little Thunder Sound Temple to devour.
Be it a small world or treasures from Buddhist Sects, both were hard to find. Even if one was lucky enough to find them, whether they could be successfully seized was still a question mark.
"Forget it, forget it, let's take it one step at a time," Gao Fei shook his head helplessly, "To gain benefits, one must be willing to make sacrifices."
