The Art of Chaotic Divinity

Chapter 110: Spirit Infusion, Earth-Fire True Qi!

"This is the spiritual object that Master mentioned!"

Ling Feng's eyes lit up as he recalled what Duanmu Qingshan had once told him.

Cultivators refined spiritual objects with various attributes, imbuing their true qi with the characteristics of these objects, a process known as spirit infusion.

For example, when Ling Feng previously consumed the Sunfire Crimson Fruit, his true qi acquired a trace of the fire attribute, which could be considered a form of spirit infusion.

However, compared to genuine spiritual objects, the effect was far inferior.

After all, things that could truly be called spiritual objects were rare treasures that even Duanmu Qingshan wouldn't have dared to hope for.

Duanmu Qingshan had once remarked that true qi imbued using spiritual objects and true qi without such infusion were entirely different, representing a qualitative leap.

Ling Feng, having only consumed the Sunfire Crimson Fruit, could clearly feel the power of the fire attribute in his true qi.

If he could refine and infuse the Earth-Fire Crystal painstakingly condensed from the Earth-Fire Flame Demon, the benefits would be immense.

"Unfortunately, Master has only heard of spirit infusion but doesn't know how it's actually done."

Furrowing his brow, Ling Feng remembered that Elder Wen from the Cangqiong Sect was nearby.

While Elder Wen couldn't teach him the arts of the Cangqiong Sect, guiding him on spirit infusion wouldn't violate any sect rules.

...

Before long, Ling Feng returned along the same path, clutching a sprig of Soul-Calming Grass to help replenish Wen Tingguang's spiritual energy.

Sensing Ling Feng's movement, Wen Tingguang slowly opened his eyes and let out a deep breath.

After some recuperation, the feeling of weakness and fatigue had subsided considerably.

"Brother Wen, this Soul-Calming Grass should help with your injuries."

Ling Feng handed over the herb, and Wen Tingguang accepted it, chewing it immediately without hesitation.

Wen Tingguang had full trust in Ling Feng's medical skills.

Upon seeing Wen Tingguang take the Soul-Calming Grass, Ling Feng took out the Earth-Fire Crystal and said, "Brother Wen, this is the Earth-Fire Crystal condensed by the Earth-Fire Flame Demon. As far as I know, this is a spiritual object used for spirit infusion."

Upon seeing the Earth-Fire Crystal in Ling Feng's hand, Wen Tingguang's eyes lit up. "Wow, indeed a rare fire-attribute spiritual object! Brother Ling Feng, could you show it to me?"

"Of course." Ling Feng handed over the Earth-Fire Crystal.

Wen Tingguang held the Earth-Fire Crystal, scrutinizing it carefully for a moment. Clearly, he also felt the flame aura emanating from the crystal. He exclaimed, "Such a good thing, truly remarkable! If it weren't for my water-attribute constitution, I would be tempted by this treasure."

As Wen Tingguang spoke, he handed the Earth-Fire Crystal back to Ling Feng, but there was no hint of reluctance in his eyes.

As good as the treasure was, it didn't match his constitution and true qi attributes.

"This was entrusted to me by Zifeng, so I hope Brother Wen can teach me the method of spirit infusion and help me refine this Earth-Fire Crystal," Ling Feng said, holding the Earth-Fire Crystal.

"Your spirit pet is truly loyal to you, willing to give you such a precious treasure it painstakingly refined over hundreds of years."

Wen Tingguang's gaze shifted to the pocket-sized stone figure on Ling Feng's shoulder. He stroked his beard and laughed heartily.

"Of course!" Zifeng hopped down from Ling Feng's shoulder in three quick jumps, leaning against a nearby tree with his legs crossed, sporting a proud and sassy expression.

"You little thing, it's hard to believe you were once a powerful demon lord of the demon race." Wen Tingguang shook his head and chuckled, feeling amazed.

Did I really almost get killed by this little guy before?

"Hmph!" Zifeng lifted his small head high, looking indifferent, muttering to himself. Hmph, old fool, I'm not that big guy! Yoouur favorite 𝒏ovels at n/ovel/bin(.)com

However, these complaints could only be heard by Ling Feng. When they were returning, he had repeatedly instructed the little guy not to reveal anything.

With a wry smile, Wen Tingguang then said, "The method of spirit infusion is not a secret, so there's no harm in telling you."

"Thanks a lot, Brother Wen!"

Wen Tingguang took out a jade slip from the dimensional ring, casually tossing it to Ling Feng. "Don't thank me so soon. Spirit infusion is not easy. First, we need to see if your constitution is suitable. For instance, if you have a water-attribute constitution, you can't use fire-attribute spiritual objects for spirit infusion."

"In addition, not everyone can successfully complete spirit infusion. For ordinary people, even if they forcibly refine the spiritual objects, they can only absorb less than one percent of the spiritual power, which is simply a waste. Only those with innate spiritual bodies or sacred bodies can truly accomplish spirit infusion."

"Innate sacred body..." Ling Feng narrowed his eyes. From what he knew, Yan Jinghong, reputed to be the empire’s legendary genius, had an innate sacred body.

With the background of the Yan family, this Yan Jinghong must have used various treasures for spirit infusion. Otherwise, how could he easily suppress enemies at the level of demon lords?

"Innate spiritual bodies can absorb thirty to eighty percent of the spiritual power from the spiritual objects, while innate sacred bodies can perfectly absorb and achieve perfect spirit infusion."

Wen Tingguang glanced at Ling Feng and chuckled. "Brother, although your talent is not bad, your constitution seems to be lacking. You're not even a human spiritual body. Let me advise you, it's better to keep the Earth-Fire Crystal for other purposes instead of wasting it."

Innate spiritual bodies could be divided into three levels: human spiritual body, earth spiritual body, and sky spiritual body.

With Wen Tingguang's discerning eyes, although he didn't use a specialized spirit-testing rod, he could still feel that Ling Feng's five-element attributes were extremely mixed, with a bit of each attribute, indicating a lack of purity. Obviously, it couldn't be called a spiritual body.

"I still want to give it a try."

Ling Feng held the Earth-Fire Crystal. If he could successfully achieve spirit infusion, it would be transformative for him, akin to being reborn.

"The treasure belongs to you, so how you use it is naturally up to you."

Wen Tingguang smiled faintly. "Your constitution does lean towards the fire element. If you wish to try, I'll assist you."

"Thank you." Ling Feng cast a grateful glance at him before focusing his attention on the jade slip.

The method of spirit infusion was not particularly difficult to understand. Ling Feng merely glanced through it once, and he grasped the steps of the process clearly.

Activating the Eye of the Emperor, Ling Feng's comprehension soared. In no time, he successfully completed the spirit infusion.

"I did it!"

Ling Feng's heart swelled with joy. After numerous attempts, he turned to look at Wen Tingguang with a hearty laugh. "Brother Wen, I did it!"

However, when he turned around, Ling Feng found Wen Tingguang's mouth gaping wide open, as if his jaw was about to hit the ground. He wore a look of utter shock, staring at Ling Feng as if he had seen a ghost.
