However, of the fifty Heavenly Evolutions and the forty-nine Great Daos, the remaining one that has vanished is where a glimmer of hope lies.
A Primordial Spiritual Treasure with forty-nine restrictions is a Primordial Supreme Treasure; with forty-eight restrictions, it is already the finest among the finest spiritual treasures.
Refining it is naturally not so easy.
With Xiao Ning currently only at the True Immortal level, he probably won't know whether he can refine a restriction even before he dies.
For a moment, holding the two treasures, Xiao Ning stood there stunned, not knowing what to do.
"You should first take it into your Niwan Palace, and I will lend you a hand in refining the restriction!"
Perhaps noticing his predicament, the Supreme Sage spoke up.
"Thank you, Master!"
Xiao Ning was overjoyed. With a thought, he swept out and, as instructed, put the small flag and jade seal into his Niwan Palace.
As soon as the two treasures entered, they pushed the Qiankun Ruler and Bodhi Tree aside, one on the left and one on the right, and were held in his primordial spirit's hands.
Once it's stored in the Niwan Palace, it's only been initially refined. Not only is there still a risk of it being taken away, but it also can't unleash the full power of this treasure.
Only by refining the first layer of restrictions can one prevent the treasure from being taken away by powerful individuals and also unleash a portion of its power.
As Xiao Ning made his move, the Taiqing Saint's gaze flickered. Though he made no move, an invisible energy arose out of thin air and surged into Xiao Ning's Niwan Palace.
Under this immense force, Xiao Ning felt a connection formed between himself and the flag and the seal, as if they were connected by blood and flesh.
The first layer of restrictions was successfully refined without anyone noticing.
"Phew! Thank you, Master!"
Xiao Ning opened his eyes and thanked her with a smile.
He could vaguely sense the innate, indestructible spiritual light within the two treasures, but his cultivation level was too low to comprehend it at all.
"Once you become an Eternal Great Luo, come find me in the Primordial World!"
The Sage Taiqing spoke calmly, then pointed a finger directly at Xiao Ning's brow.
Xiao Ning did not dodge, allowing himself to be hit.
Suddenly, a flood of information entered my mind.
He couldn't help but close his eyes to process what he had learned.
This information is not a specific cultivation method, nor is it any supernatural power or magic; it is simply a reflection on enlightenment.
From the beginning of becoming an immortal, to the supreme celestial immortal with the three flowers gathered at the top, to the immortal golden immortal with the five elements converging at the origin, and finally to the eternal great immortal who transcends the long river of fate.
This insightful reflection elucidates the true essence of cultivation, making it more precious to Xiao Ning than any treasure.
After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Ning snapped out of his reverie and looked up to find that the Sage Taiqing had already departed!
"You've come to your senses? The Sage has already returned, but he left something behind that you'll definitely find interesting! This old Taoist will invite you in now!"
The Supreme Dao Ancestor flicked his whisk and laughed.
"Oh? What is that?"
Xiao Ning asked curiously.
But the Supreme Dao Ancestor did not speak. He flicked his whisk, and a beam of light shot towards Xiao Ning.
Xiao Ning caught the light, and at the same time, a cold male voice echoed in his mind.
"Ding! Administrator Taishang Laojun invites you to join the 'Chat Group of All Realms'. Do you agree?"
Upon hearing the voice in his ear, Xiao Ning was completely dumbfounded.
Did I hear that right?
Chat group?
Chat groups are so outdated!
Signing in is outdated!
What's going on?
"accept!"
I breathed a sigh of relief and finally chose to accept it.
Since I'm just killing time anyway, it's good to find something to do during my free time, like showing off to newbies.
As Xiao Ning accepted the invitation, a familiar light screen appeared before his eyes, just like the previous sign-in system, with no major differences.
On the screen in front of him, his profile picture was in the upper left corner, and next to it was his name, the two large characters "Xiao Ning".
Below that are four vertical columns: "Messages," "Contacts," "Events," and "Shop."
Unfortunately, both the "Contacts" and "Activities" sections are blank, except for one message in the "Messages" section, which is a message from a chat group.
The chat group is named "Chat Group of All Realms".
The group profile picture is a constantly rotating Tai Chi symbol, giving people a sense of nobility and sanctity.
Xiao Ning clicked on her profile picture, and a box popped up displaying her information:
