'It's indeed miraculous that a Celestial Fire is needed to refine pills and craft weapons in the Devata Realms. Otherwise, one can't be a Celestial Alchemist or a Celestial Weapon Craftsman even if one is knowledgeable about pills refining or weapons forging. A Celestial Fire is as precious as celestial herbs and celestial fruits. They're born from magma of the earth, windy and chilly valleys, and even in the deep rivers and seas.' Duan Ling Tian sighed as he read the information in his mind. 'Once a Celestial Fire recognizes its owner, it can't be snatched away unless the owner is willing. If a Celestial Alchemist or Celestial Weapons Craftsman dies, his Celestial Fire will dissipate. One can also detonate one's Celestial Fire to severely injure or kill one's enemy. Once it's detonated, even a Celestial King will be killed if he's within 1,000 meters of the detonation point!'
Duan Ling Tian also learned that Celestial Fires were divided into primitive Celestial Fire, mediocre Celestial Fire, prominent Celestial Fire, and supreme Celestial Fire. Apart from that, each grade had various types, and some types had yet to be discovered.
'Even if a supreme Celestial Alchemist or a supreme Celestial Weapons Craftsman's cultivation base is not high, a Celestial King wouldn't simply provoke them. After all, if they chose to commit suicide by detonating their Celestial Fires, the Celestial King might die! Even if they're just a primitive Celestial Alchemist or primitive Celestial Weapons Craftsman, the explosion from their Celestial Fires can also severely injure or kill a Great Overarching Golden Celestial!' Duan Ling Tian was surprised by the force of Celestial Fires. Now that he discovered the benefits and terrifying force of a Celestial Fire, he wondered excitedly, 'I wonder if I'd be lucky enough to obtain a Celestial Fire in the near future.'
Then, he took out another Memory Celestial Talisman and muttered, "This Memory Celestial Talisman seems to contain information about pills refining and weapons forging."
The Memory Celestial Talisman contained theories and methods of how to refine pills and forge weapons. Although it was just basic information, Duan Ling Tian was still taken aback. 'These theories are similar to the refining and crafting theories I came across in the Mortal Continent when I was still in the mundane realm.'
However, his mood was slightly dampened, as though a cold bucket of water had been poured on him, when he remembered he had no Celestial Fires and precious materials were hard to find. He sighed and stopped focusing on the information about refining pills and forging weapons.
Then, he continued reading a Memory Celestial Talisman that had information about Celestial Methods. From this, he learned about the various categories of Celestial Methods.
'Apart from offensive Celestial Methods, defensive Celestial Methods, and movement Celestial Methods, there are also assist-type Celestial Methods. However, unlike assist-type Divine Abilities that help one to raise the force of one's Celestial Origin Energy, an assist-type Celestial Method is used to impede or imprison one's opponent. For instance, an assist-type Celestial Method can transform one's Celestial Origin Energy into a long rope or a cage to bind one's opponent. It can also work with one's soul to create an independent space to imprison one's opponent.'
The next Memory Celestial Talisman's content was about Celestial Talismans.
Celestial Talismans were similar to Dao Talismans, but its effects were more potent because they were engraved on jade tokens.
'There are many types of Celestial Talismans such as offensive Celestial Talismans, defensive Celestial Talismans, movement Celestial Talismans, and assist-type Celestial Talismans. Memory Celestial Talismans and Floating Image Celestial Talismans are assist-type Celestial Talismans,' Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.
The Floating Image Celestial Talisman was roughly similar to the Mirror Image Talisman in the mundane realms. It could record images and was similar to video recording in the science and technology civilization. The difference between Floating Image Celestial Talismans and Mirror Image Talismans was the former could also record and play audio.
'In fact, there's also the Minor Major Floating Image Celestial Talisman that is similar to the Minor Major Mirror Image Talismans in the mundane realms. However, it's much more expensive. I originally thought Yang Kong Ping knew me because he had seen me killing his centurion through a Celestial Talisman similar to a Minor Major Mirror Image Talisman. However, that doesn't seem to be the case since the talismans are quite costly. Let alone a centurion, even captains of the Black Dragon Army and Silverwyrm Army did not have these talismans. Otherwise, Commander Chen would have given them to me when I became a captain. This is also why Commander Chen had no idea how Captain Huang Ji Bing died,' Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.
Suddenly, a loud and powerful voice rang from outside Duan Ling Tian's room. "Brother Ling Tian, I heard you came out of closed-door cultivation and you went out?"
Duan Ling Tian knew the voice belonged to Liu Feng Gu, the City Governor of Bloody Specter City. It seemed like Liu Feng Gu had decided to stop addressing him as Captain Duan and changed it to Brother Ling Tian instead, making them seem closer.
Duan Ling Tian stopped reading from the Memory Celestial Talisman. He opened the door and stepped out into the courtyard. He sat down before the stone table, across Liu Feng Gu, and greeted Liu Feng Gu, "City Governor."
"Did you improve during your closed-door cultivation?" Liu Feng Gu asked as he looked at Duan Ling Tian with a burning gaze.
Duan Ling Tian could see the anticipation in Liu Feng Gu's eyes. He smiled and said, "Thank you for letting me use the Tranquil Alcove for the past months. I had a breakthrough, and I'm now a Violet Moon Heavenly Celestial!"
Liu Feng Gu was stunned speechless. He looked at Duan Ling Tian in a daze. When he heard Duan Ling Tian had already come out of closed-door cultivation earlier, he did not think it was possible for Duan Ling Tian to become a Violet Moon Heavenly Celestial. He only wished Duan Ling Tian was close to becoming a Violet Moon Heavenly Celestial. After all, he did not think Duan Ling Tian could become a Violet Moon Heavenly Celestial within six months in the first place. Now that Duan Ling Tian stopped cultivating after five months, he was even more convinced there was no way Duan Ling Tian would have a breakthrough. He really did not expect Duan Ling Tian would become a Violet Moon Heavenly Celestial! When he regained his senses, he thought to himself, 'It seems like I really found a treasure this time. I was right in selecting him!' His eyes were brimming with excitement at this moment. With how fast Duan Ling Tian was improving, he knew revenge was in his grasp now!
On the other hand, Duan Ling Tian recalled the Minor Major Floating Image Celestial Talisman he had just learned about. He asked, "City Governor. Do you have Minor Major Floating Image Celestial Talismans for the Commanders of the Black Dragon Army and Silverwyrm Army?"
