In just one or two breaths, a sky-blue Spirit Liquid sprayed out from the Purple-Eyed Golden Winged Bird's backside—
extreme gold was refined in such a Frustrated manner!
Golden Winged Birds are indeed overbearing; they can't stand anyone being too arrogant.
And the Purple-Eyed Golden Winged Bird is the most overbearing of them all.
However, when the Purple-Eyed Golden Winged Bird returned to the Lower Spirit Sea, Qian Duoduo found that it had consumed half of his Spiritual Qi.
Qian Duoduo quickly drank a bottle of Spirit Liquid and swallowed several Qi Return Pills to replenish his Spiritual Qi before he began to refine the key body.
Counting them, the Entering Saint Key, which was less than half the size of a palm, had as many as nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine small holes on it.
These small holes were layered, with holes within holes, making them extremely complex.
Qian Duoduo gathered all his Spiritual Awareness into the cauldron, simulating the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine small holes.
He was shocked to find that his Spiritual Awareness was almost not enough!
One must know that Qian Duoduo first used Earthly Path Power to open up the Upper Spirit Sea, and then used the Spirit Liquid refined from the golden bricks for a second expansion, making it much thicker and even imbued with a hint of gold.
If it weren't for the fact that he happened to be in the back mountain of Preaching Mountain and obtained the supreme Legacy of the Golden Life Devouring Dragon Art, Qian Duoduo truly would not have been able to refine this Entering Saint Key.
If Qian Duoduo couldn't refine it, then in the Lower Three Sects, where there were no Four-Rank Refiners, no one else could refine it either.
It seemed that Huo Qifeng, having obtained the Magic Treasure for the Entering Saint Key, wasn't that he didn't want to refine it, but rather that he couldn't refine it himself and couldn't find anyone who could.
Liu Boli moved his fingers, setting up several more layers of Formation to shield them.
"You focus on Artifact Refining; I will be your Protector."
The Entering Saint Key was divided into two main parts: hao gold on the outside and extreme gold on the inside.
Qian Duoduo used his Spiritual Awareness to push the hao gold Spirit Liquid and the extreme gold Spirit Liquid, forming the overall structure first, and then shaping each small hole one by one.
When shaping the small holes with hao gold and extreme gold, he certainly couldn't wait for them to solidify; it had to be done in a liquid state.
And after shaping them in a liquid state, he still couldn't let them solidify, because there were thousands more small holes waiting to be shaped.
Especially those large holes containing small holes, and holes within holes, required even more use of Spiritual Awareness to act as a mold, supporting the space of the holes.
This was an extremely long micro-sculpture!
After casting the first thousand small holes, sweat began to pour down Qian Duoduo's forehead.
Liu Boli saw that Qian Duoduo was controlling the furnace fire with his left hand and the key body with his right, with no time to replenish his Spiritual Qi, so he took out a bottle of Spirit Liquid from the Golden Toad and handed it to his mouth.
This was the first time he had received such high treatment, being served by his Master.
Qian Duoduo drank the Spirit Liquid in one gulp and continued to focus on casting the holes: two thousand, three thousand, four thousand, five thousand, six thousand, seven thousand, eight thousand, nine thousand...
During this process, Qian Duoduo drank more than ten bottles of Spirit Liquid handed to him by Liu Boli.
As he outlined the last small hole, the Entering Saint Key surprisingly trembled slightly, scaring Qian Duoduo's face pale.
If this were to cause overall resonance and deform the key body, all his efforts would be in vain.
Fortunately, this tremor was merely a resonance after a Formation was completely formed; not only did it not deform the small holes, but it actually served to finalize their shape.
Qian Duoduo gradually lowered the temperature in the cauldron, and the hao gold and extreme gold slowly solidified.
These two extremely sturdy materials were extremely difficult to refine and carve, but they also had an advantage: their deformation during solidification was minimal and could be ignored.
When the Entering Saint Key body reached room temperature, Qian Duoduo released his hands, lay back, and fell to the ground, gasping for Qi.
Once the sweat on his forehead disappeared, Liu Boli pointed at the cauldron.
"Bu Huan, look at the Entering Saint Key."
Qian Duoduo sat up and put his Spiritual Awareness into the cauldron.
Inside the cauldron, the Entering Saint Key lay quietly at the bottom, with a trace of his Spiritual Qi, which had not been withdrawn, automatically flowing and circulating in the small holes, like a flowing Spirit Snake.
"This item is extraordinary!"
Qian Duoduo exclaimed, imitating Liu Boli's tone.
The Entering Saint Key was already so spiritual even without the soul liquid injected into it.
What would the Entering Saint Key become if heart-shaped soul liquid were injected into it?
