In the Burial Instrument, there were only Spirit Fish, no Spirit Birds, Spirit Beasts, or spiritual plants.
Picking up the Entering Saint Key from the ground, Qian Duoduo transformed his Purple Eyes into his own eyes and walked a short distance forward, where he saw a small river.
The river contained many Spirit Fish and spiritual shrimp, swimming freely and at ease.
These creatures, formed from low-grade Mortal Weapons, relied on instinct, gathering and dispersing, creating a scene of tranquility.
Just as Qian Duoduo was about to cross the river, a black Ling Gui suddenly darted out from the waterweeds, bit a Spirit Fish, and dragged it into the waterweeds.
There is weak preying on the strong everywhere, Qian Duoduo shook his head and lifted his leg to jump to the other side of the river.
At this moment, the black Ling Gui that had swallowed the Spirit Fish poked two black eyes out from the waterweeds, looking at Qian Duoduo with a violent gaze, his eyes filled with a man-eating desire.
"This little fellow is a bit too ignorant of his own limitations!"
Qian Duoduo reached out and scooped the palm-sized Ling Gui from the river.
When the Ling Gui saw that he was caught by Qian Duoduo, his eyes turned crimson, he stretched out his belly, opened his mouth wide, and desperately tried to bite Qian Duoduo.
But he was only a mid-grade Mortal Weapon teapot; how could he bite Qian Duoduo?
Upon closer inspection, Qian Duoduo saw a thick black mist inside the Ling Gui's body, condensed from countless evil thoughts, which turned the normally docile Ling Gui into an extremely aggressive fierce turtle.
Qian Duoduo gathered his Purple Eyes and approached the Ling Gui.
The evil thoughts desperately dodged, fleeing in all directions within the Ling Gui's body.
The Ling Gui shook his head and tail, trying to escape back into the small river.
The Purple Eyes coldly glanced at the evil thoughts, and a barely visible purple light flashed, causing the evil thoughts to immediately transform into a wisp of light smoke, scattering into the air.
Once the evil thoughts were gone, the Ling Gui's head and claws went limp, extending long out of his shell.
After a moment, the Ling Gui awoke, retracted his neck, and the two small eyes that were revealed now held spirituality, looking timidly at Qian Duoduo, and then retracted his four claws into his shell.
This appearance was just like the mischievous yet adorable little turtles in Wang Dahei's turtle garden.
Qian Duoduo gently tossed the Ling Gui into the small river. The Ling Gui paddled his four claws, burrowed into the waterweeds, and hid himself.
How could the Artifact Refining World be eroded by evil thoughts? And how could one comprehend by entering the Refining Saint Wall?
"A Saint is not an artifact; therefore, by not being an artifact, one becomes a Sacred Artifact!"
Qian Duoduo couldn't understand, so he could only recite the Entering Sainthood Incantation again.
The Entering Sainthood Incantation drew a faintly glowing line on the ground, pointing forward, straight upwards.
He walked forward with doubts, seeing that the grade of Magic Treasure became higher and higher, and at the same time, more and more of them carried evil thoughts.
Just as he walked into a mountain forest, "Whoosh!" a cold wind attacked from behind. Qian Duoduo waved the Entering Saint Key in his hand backward, striking against the cold wind.
"Puff!"
The Entering Saint Key split a high-grade battle beast, a Spiritual Monkey, into two halves.
The Spiritual Monkey's arms were longer than his body, and his fingertips were as sharp as blades.
The Spiritual Monkey fell to the ground, a cloud of black Qi emerged from his body, revealing his true form: a high-grade artisan artifact, a short golden-eared saber.
High-grade battle beasts were not originally so inept, but the Spiritual Monkey was intent on a sneak attack and did not realize that Qian Duoduo, who appeared to be only in the Foundation Establishment Initial Stage, was actually in the Foundation Establishment Late Stage and possessed Spiritual Awareness far exceeding that of the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.
His Spiritual Awareness also carried the bane of evil thoughts, the Purple Eyes.
And the Entering Saint Key in Qian Duoduo's hand was made of hao gold on the outside and extreme gold on the inside.
Just its weight alone could destroy most Magic Treasures.
What exactly happened here?
One Spiritual Monkey was not his match, but if a group came, it would still be troublesome.
Turning past the mountain forest, a desert appeared ahead.
A layer of black mist floated over the desert. The further in, the denser the black mist became.
This desert seemed to be a dividing line.
On this side of the desert, Spiritual Qi was more abundant than black Qi. On the other side of the desert, black Qi was more abundant than Spiritual Qi.
"A Saint is not an artifact; therefore, by not being an artifact, one becomes a Sacred Artifact!"
Qian Duoduo loudly recited the Entering Sainthood Incantation towards the desert. The Entering Sainthood Incantation pointed to the depths of the desert.
Currently, Liu Boli was inside the Golden Toad.
And the Golden Toad was outside the Refining Saint Wall. It was impossible for Qian Duoduo to consult Liu Boli.
Whether to go or not, he had to make up his own mind.
