Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror.

An escape tool among magical treasures, according to the introduction in the Great Dao Book Pavilion, once crafted, the user can activate the treasure with a thought, transforming into light and traveling at an extraordinary speed for a short time.

During the light transformation, it can even be immune to most physical attacks and penetrate some weak energy barriers and non-physical obstructions.

The drawbacks are also obvious. Firstly, this magical treasure has no attack or defense capabilities.

Secondly, it consumes a massive amount of energy, draining most of the true essence and divine sense of the cultivator with each use.

Moreover, because the escape effect grows almost indefinitely with the cultivator's level, it will proportionally consume true essence and divine sense, regardless of the cultivator's level.

It's a last-resort escape method, not to be used recklessly.

Additionally, due to the high speed during light transformation, if the cultivator's level is too low, they can only move in a straight line and find it difficult to control the landing point.

This issue can only be alleviated after reaching the Nascent Soul Stage.

Furthermore, the magical treasure is linked to the cultivator's mind and spirit, so if it is forcefully broken in the light transformation state, the cultivator's divine soul will also be severely damaged.

However, for Jeming, these drawbacks can be ignored.

After all, the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror compensates for his lack of escape methods, and if it really comes to the point of using the mirror, there is no expectation of counterattacking the enemy anyway.

From the demonstration in the Great Dao Book Pavilion, even the most basic Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror allows a cultivator to escape at sub-light speed after transforming into light.

If the enemy can stop that, given his current strength, he might as well quietly wait for death and not worry about the divine soul being harmed.

Besides these drawbacks, there is also the difficulty of refining as a flaw.

Leaving aside the difficulty of the crafting method, just the aspect of material collection is quite "complicated."

The primary materials needed to refine the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror are all concept-related materials.

The operating principle of this magical treasure is to collect, condense, and then control the concept of light.

The core concept lies in the speed, penetration, color, rhythm, and birth and death of "light."

The task is to refine these intangible concepts into tangible artifacts, which in turn can feedback the same source of conceptual light when needed.

Therefore, the materials needed for refining the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror only require natural light that embodies the pure "concept of light."

If translated into plain terms, the light that needs to be collected consists of the Light of Dawn, Rainbow Light, Moonlight, Star Light, and Split Lightning Light.

Each of these five light concepts represents a unique characteristic of light, corresponding to certain properties of the five elements and aligning with the name of the five aggregates of the treasure.

They must be captured and condensed directly from nature using specific heart methods at specific times and places.

Fortunately, while collecting these concepts can be cumbersome, it is better than relying on materials that simply do not exist in the Wizard World to refine some magical treasures.

"The difficulty of refining is indeed challenging, even true flame alone is quite troublesome."

Though the refining process of the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror does not require a furnace, it needs true flame to refine spiritual qualities, divine sense to condense the artifact embryo, and then integrate the concepts into the artifact to refine a magical treasure linked to one's divine soul.

"With true flame as the guide, divine sense as the craft, materials as the bone, and concepts as the soul..." he murmured to himself in silence.

These are not only the core techniques of artifact refining but also the most fundamental methods.

Simply put, this Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror tests the cultivator's mastery of fundamental skills.

"First... try to condense the true flame."

The Wizard World also has flame magic, but it mostly involves manipulating external fire elements, different from the true flame of cultivators.

The true flame of a cultivator is a manifestation of highly condensed true essence, essentially a high-purity energy containing the cultivator's own spiritual power, capable of refining the impurities within materials and stimulating their spiritual nature.

Jeming was prepared for a long battle, as described in the Great Dao Book Format, ordinary cultivators might even spend several years to condense their first true flame.

Then...

"Wait, how did this work so quickly?!"

Staring at the tiny pale golden flame, Jeming looked baffled: "Could it be that I'm actually a genius?!"

Although it took some time, in total, Jeming only spent less than a day to condense the first wisp of true flame.

Of course, claiming to be a genius was just a joke, as Jeming understood why he condensed the true flame so quickly.

"Who would've thought that practicing alchemy and deciphering skill basics could also be applied to condensing true flame, that's quite the gain."

Initially, alchemy required controlling spiritual power to analyze everything, and the practice of deciphering skill needed sensing energy fluctuations from the start.

The combination of the two, alongside the fact that both witchcrafts can be used on oneself, allowed Jeming's ability to control his own power to far exceed that of a typical cultivator.

With the true flame issue resolved, the next step was to construct a carrier capable of holding the concept of light — the most foundational artifact embryo.

By using a professional method of condensing the artifact embryo, one can condense an embryo linked to their mind and spirit using spiritual power, serving as the prototype of the magical treasure and the carrier of the concept.

This involves integrating part of one's true essence and divine sense origin into the materials, imbuing them with initial "spirituality" and "plasticity."

After capturing the "concept" contained within the formless and bodiless light, the next step involves using special techniques to transform it into tangible "Light-Encompassing Spirit Dew" or "Light Condensing Crystal Sand" and then integrating it into the magical treasure embryo for refinement.

Generally, reaching this point indicates a magical treasure has taken shape, and the cultivator only needs to continuously undergo long-term sacrificial refinement day and night.

"Practicing the method for condensing the artifact embryo and collecting light concepts will take time, not to mention completing the Eye of Scouting and other talisman witchcrafts... Oh, right, there's also learning alchemy and magic potion knowledge, looks like I'll be busy for a while."

Having listed what he needed to accomplish next, Jeming stretched lazily.

Although there are many tasks to do, especially given how refining the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror is most challenging not in the artifact refining itself but in the preliminary "light collection" process.

But fortunately, time is quite abundant, with still five years before the academy's final test at the Nolun Workshop, ample time to slowly proceed.

He lifted his head to look out the window, surprisingly realizing that in the blink of an eye, it was already morning.

Suddenly, the thought of a material for the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror occurred to him: the Light of Dawn.

This light belongs to wood and fire, representing life and growth, symbolizing the first ray of speed and penetration as light pierces the darkness when all things awaken.

It needs to be collected at the break of dawn, before the purple light from the east completely dissipates (around the junction of Yin and Mao hours).

Looking at the sun on the horizon, Jeming instinctively operated the cultivation technique, reaching out towards the morning light.

In the next moment, gazing at the faint light in his palm, Jeming couldn't help but break into a grin:

"It's a good omen."
