This golden lotus was not crafted primarily for offense, but for defense and recovery. Xiao Yan infused it with the power of the Life Spirit Flame and the Life and Death Ancestral Talisman. He then refined seeds of natural treasures imbued with Yuan Spirit Qi into lotus seeds and embedded them in the center of the flower. This gave the lotus a unique ability—just by sitting on it, one could continuously replenish their Yuan Spirit Qi. It saved him the constant effort of restoring his Origin Spirit manually.
However, what satisfied Xiao Yan the most was that golden seal. Strictly speaking, only that artifact could truly be called a Yuan Spirit Weapon, because it was forged entirely from pure Yuan Spirit Qi and other energies—without the use of any physical materials. It bore no additional attributes. Its sole purpose was to suppress the enemy.
Normally, Yuan Spirits could not wield Dou Skills. But from the Ancestral Stone, Xiao Yan learned that in Tianxuan Continent, certain weapons inherently carried abilities—skills branded onto them by their creators. Activating the brand would unleash the skill. Borrowing that idea, Xiao Yan inscribed several Dou Skills onto the golden seal.
He chose to inscribe the long-unused Emperor Seal Art, not because he didn't want to embed something stronger like Demon Wrath Nine Absolutes, but because after a trial run, he found that technique's power to be far too terrifying. It risked destroying the weapon entirely. Left with no choice, he settled for the Emperor Seal Art, which was considerably weaker by comparison.
The original Emperor Seal Art was only a high-level Earth Rank Dou Skill. Its five combined seals could rival Heaven Rank techniques, making it decent for ordinary Dou Zun. But for Xiao Yan, it barely passed the threshold. However, after inscribing it into the golden seal and activating it with Yuan Spirit Qi, he discovered its power had surged far beyond expectations.
While the essence of the Emperor Seal Art remained, it now carried the full might of a Yuan Spirit Weapon. What had once been capped at the Heaven Rank level now burst forth with strength dozens of times greater. Even the weakest Opening Mountain Seal could now rival the strength of all five seals combined in the original form. And the final Ancient Emperor Seal now had enough power to challenge top-tier Heaven Rank techniques. With all five seals combined under these enhancements, their might surpassed even advanced Heaven Rank Dou Skills.
This thoroughly resolved the Origin Spirit's inability to use Dou Skills.
The golden seal was given the name Heavenly Profound God Seal, and the lotus was called Nirvana Golden Lotus. The Dragon-Slaying Sword already had a name. With the completion of these three Yuan Spirit Weapons, the Origin Spirit now had combat ability on par with the Soul Avatar. If he had these tools during his battle with the Yimo Emperor, and the latter hadn't drawn on the Plane Fetus's power, the fight would have been far easier.
After crafting the Yuan Spirit Weapons, Xiao Yan turned his attention to cultivating the Yuan Spirit Flame. As a flame-wielding expert, forming flames from special energy was practically routine for him. The process posed little challenge.
Before long, a pale golden flame slowly rose from his palm. This was the Yuan Spirit Flame the Ancestral Stone had mentioned. However, it carried traces of Nirvana Qi, likely due to the abundance of Nirvana essence he had mixed into the process. As a result, the flame also possessed some of the characteristics of the Nirvana Devil Flame.
Still, even with that enhancement, Xiao Yan was not entirely satisfied. This Yuan Spirit Flame was certainly stronger than most beast flames, but when compared to true Heavenly Flames—even the lowest-ranked ones—it was significantly lacking. For ordinary cultivators, it would've been a prized treasure. But for Xiao Yan, who possessed more than twenty Heavenly Flames, it was barely worth mentioning.
'I need to find a way to strengthen this flame,' he thought, gazing at the pale golden fire in his palm. After a moment of contemplation, he opened his mouth and summoned two more flames: a gray-white one and a blood-red one. They floated quietly at his side.
These were flames he hadn't used in a long time—Transforming Flame and Blood Demon Flame. He had initially prepared them to merge into the Demonic Wrath Flame Lotus, but with his rapid progress in strength and new Heavenly Flames gathered, these two had been left unused. Now, in the effort to refine his Yuan Spirit Flame, he called them forth once again.
Originally, the Blood Demon Flame had evolved into the Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Flame in the Magical Beast Mountain Range after absorbing Blood Fiend Qi and the essence of myriad beasts. But later, after arriving in Central Plains, Xiao Yan had gathered the blood of many high-grade magical beasts and formed another Blood Demon Flame—stronger than its predecessor due to the superior quality of Central Plains beasts.
The most straightforward way to enhance the Yuan Spirit Flame would be to feed it these two flames and let it devour them. But that method would be slow and inefficient. So instead, Xiao Yan recalled the Flame Refinement Art he had cultivated in the past and prepared to refine them through fusion.
Back when he first created the Transforming Flame, he had used three regular beast flames, merged and tempered through the Flame Refinement Art, continuously feeding them more beast fire until the result was a flame nearing the power of a Heavenly Flame—often called a "pseudo-Heavenly Flame." So, what would happen if he used three pseudo-Heavenly Flames as raw materials?
The three flames before him—Yuan Spirit Flame, Blood Demon Flame, and Transforming Flame—were all significantly stronger than ordinary beast flames. Their heat was already close to the lower ranks of the Heavenly Flame list. However, they lacked the true sentience and internal destructive essence of a real Heavenly Flame. Even so, if he followed this plan, perhaps he could forge something new.
An artificial Heavenly Flame—a concept almost unthinkable on the Dou Qi Continent. But now that Xiao Yan had reached the Dou Di realm, and his materials were exceptional, the idea seemed plausible. Fusion and refinement were second nature to him. He barely needed more than a few breaths to begin the process.
However, when the new flame finally formed, Xiao Yan still sensed that something was missing. It fell short of true Heavenly Flames—because it lacked destructive power.
But Xiao Yan had long prepared for this. With a flick of his finger, countless silver orbs of lightning floated into the air—Thunder Orbs he had refined in the past by devouring various lightning sources. Each contained intense, violent energy—just what was needed to complete the new flame.
