The higher the quality of a magic item, the longer it takes to nurture.

The Xuan Chen Armor is like this, as is the Nether Python Whip.

Only Luo Chen's Primordial Chaos Tripod, because it was fused with a drop of the Refining Heaven Demon Monarch's blood, emerged early, missing the process of being thoroughly nurtured to perfection.

This is an advantage, but the disadvantages are also quite obvious.

That was why Luo Chen later spent over a hundred years in the North Sea to thoroughly refine the impurities within it.

All functions had to be developed by himself, bit by bit, which was quite troublesome.

The Heart Inquiry Mirror is different; it needs to be well practiced before use. Naturally, one cannot be eager for quick success, so Luo Chen nurtured it for another two years after crafting the embryo.

With that, all is ready!

Sitting cross-legged in front of the Primordial Chaos Tripod, Luo Chen rhythmically cast threads of Qi Power, preparing to retrieve the treasure.

The Prosperity and Decline True Fire gradually extinguished, and the treasure light within the tripod grew ever more intense.

After consistently using the Jade Emperor Clear Pupil Liquid for three years, Luo Chen's eyes gradually developed a certain mysteriousness.

The evolution direction of the eyes had deviated somewhat from what he most desired, but the new eyes were not bad either.

On the original foundation of discerning truth from illusion, they were continuously optimized and gradually acquired the "Break Illusion" attribute.

This is also why the Demon Emperor Tao Bao, who was skilled in the art of doppelgänger transformation, was tied down in his presence, unable to play to his greatest advantage.

Discern truth from illusion, not bewildered by transformations!

Just right for dealing with the current situation.

At this moment, inside the tripod, the treasure light blazed brightly, producing various strange illusions.

There was a White Eagle soaring the sky, gracefully hunting among a large group of illusion beasts.

There were cultivators wielding heavy treasures, constantly pressing and slaughtering, with dangers emerging one after another.

Even a man standing on the tripod wielding a sword, forming Dao Law Methods with his fingers, exerting dominion over all beings.

Finally, in the vast clouds and fog, a gigantic blurry creature was seen swallowing the Great Desolate, evolving the sun, moon, and stars.

Amidst so many anomalies, being absorbed in any one of them could lead to missing the best time to retrieve the treasure.

However, Luo Chen's eyes remained blazing, showing no sign of being swayed.

Instead, a sense of realization emerged in his heart.

"These illusions seem to be the lifetime memories of the Mirage Dragon that evolved into the White Eagle, and isn't that man who stands on the tripod wielding a sword just myself?"

"As for that gigantic blurry creature... it should be the original body of the Mirage Dragon."

Retracing even the memories of the Mirage Dragon's original body, Luo Chen became increasingly delighted.

This Heart Inquiry Mirror, its quality is absolutely high, it should be top-grade!

Such is only to be expected, after all, Luo Chen's Artifact Refining Technique compared to a hundred years ago is already incomparable, and the materials used surpass those of the Xuan Chen Armor by far.

"Ascendant Grade, definitely Ascendant Grade!"

Just as Luo Chen anticipated, about to perform the Treasure Collection Technique, a sudden change occurred!

Zzzt!

Within the Primordial Chaos Tripod, dark clouds suddenly shrouded, with strands of black electrical arcs spreading out from the dense clouds.

This cloud cluster wasn't large, just enough to envelop the Heart Inquiry Mirror with its brilliance.

Those dangerous black arcs kept striking the treasure light, shaking the Heart Inquiry Mirror as if on the verge of collapse.

Seeing this scene, Luo Chen's expression changed, and he instantly realized something.

The force of the Tribulation Thunder!

Back when he formed his Nascent Soul, the final round of Tribulation Thunder he summoned was also the strongest round!

He remembered that round of Tribulation Thunder wasn't the ordinary white, but had turned black, and even manifested beastly nature, extremely dangerous.

At that time, Luo Chen thought that even if he withstood it, he would be severely injured, let alone dealing with Han Zhan's Soul Snatch afterward.

Fortunately, after the Primordial Chaos Tripod ascended to the True Device level, it instinctively protected him, forcibly swallowing the black Tribulation Thunder.

For so many years, Luo Chen has always kept this force of Tribulation Thunder as a trump card, using it for aggressive attacks.

He occasionally had whimsical notions of using it to temper his Divine Soul, but gave up because it was too dangerous.

Yet unexpectedly, during this moment of artifact refinement, it stirred the force of the Tribulation Thunder.

"It must be because the Heart Inquiry Mirror's rank is too high, attracting the force of the Tribulation Thunder."

As Luo Chen came to this understanding, he was about to control the Primordial Chaos Tripod to remove this black lightning.

He had this authority!

The Primordial Chaos Tripod was under his control, and the force of the Tribulation Thunder it devoured was naturally under his control as well.

But just as Luo Chen was about to remove the force of the Tribulation Thunder, he suddenly thought of something and hesitated in his actions.

How high must the magic treasure rank be to attract the force of the Tribulation Thunder?

Compared to immortal cultivators, it is only when achieving the Nascent Soul Stage that Heavenly Tribulation comes into being!

And magic items only need to resort to Heavenly Thunder refinement when ascending to True Device status, to evolve their "meridians."

The scene at this moment is how similar to the time when the Primordial Chaos Tripod and Xuan Chen Armor ascended to True Device status?

In that instant, Luo Chen recalled the records regarding True Device refinement in Feiyun Zi's tomes.

It's not that every True Device is refined together when a cultivator ascends to the Nascent Soul Realm.

That would test the quality of the magic item too much.

After all, not every Golden Core Great Finalization cultivator can possess a top-grade life-bound magical treasure refined to the utmost degree.

Some newly advanced Nascent Souls might not possess a True Device for a short time.

In fact, most of the time, a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator's True Device is nurtured and refined gradually after their realm improves, elevating their life-bound magical treasure to the perfection level before inviting an Artifact Refiner to summon heavenly thunder for its final transformation.

The Demon Clan is somewhat different, often those Demon Emperors at the Third Order instinctively select the most outstanding part of their Demon Body to focus their Qi Power on refining. Then using the Transfiguration Thunder Tribulation, gain their True Device.

However, such demon-refined True Devices often have similar quality, but the power isn't pure enough.

The Lightless Beast's Scorpion Tail Needle is that kind of product, having True Device level but, other than being sharp, it doesn't have any additional abilities.
