85: Chapter 40 Qing Su Doesn’t Understand Very Well 85: Chapter 40 Qing Su Doesn’t Understand Very Well “It’s done!
It’s really a flying sword!”
“The quality is actually quite good; it’s more than enough for disciples at the Condensed Spirit Gathering stage!”
“If this method can be used to refine more powerful magic artifacts, wouldn’t it continuously turn treasured materials into magic artifacts?”
The crux of it is right here, this part can directly imprint the sword’s engravings in one go!
How did you do this?”
“This method is indeed only capable of refining magic artifacts, more complex kinds of Immortal Treasures, their engravings are typically inscribed from the inside out…
Hiss, but it’s not necessarily so, whatever kind of magic artifact you want to make, you could prepare an engraving mold in advance, inscribing from the inside out is not impossible.”
“Hiss, why didn’t I think of this before?
Have all my longevity been spent in vain?”
Inside Mundane Affairs Hall.
Li Ping’an had already stepped outside the crowd, where a group of Immortals surrounded the ‘assembly line’ and marveled in amazement.
Just in this short while, Li Ping’an had already received five or six voice transmissions.
The Sect Leader said, “Ping’an, with such a splendid method, why did you not inform your father to mention it earlier?”
Li Ping’an really wanted to respond with “blame me then,” but considering his currently weak mana, he could only offer a bitter smile to the Sect Leader.
The Sect Leader then transmitted his voice, “This matter is indeed my oversight, haha!
Wait until everyone has seen enough, then put it away.”
Li Ping’an performed a cupped fist salute.
Then came Elder Yansheng’s voice transmission, “With just this method, you have already made a great contribution to our sect!”
There was the voice of Wang Zaizhi’s master: “Young friend Ping’an, Zaizhi had previously offended you, please be magnanimous and forgive him.”
And there was a strange voice: “I, Wei Yuan, Sect Master of Yuan Sect, wish to forge good relations with the young friend today.
When you have free time, you may come to Yuan Sect for a visit, we will treat you with generous hospitality.”
Even those looking to poach him had arrived.
“Quickly put it away,” Elder Xiaoyue transmitted her voice, “This magic artifact of yours is too unsophisticated, and you haven’t concealed any of the engravings.
It has already been memorized by some of the other Sect Leaders.
Do you realize how much Spirit Stone this artifact-refining method could earn our sect every year…
Previously, it was my lack of vision.
I didn’t expect your father to have such ingenious ideas.”
Li Ping’an looked towards his father, noticing that his father had not taken the initiative to step forward.
Feeling that the demonstration had been sufficiently convincing, Li Ping’an raised a finger toward the front.
The dozen large magic artifacts simultaneously stopped operating.
Elder Yansheng swung his smoking pipe, and several Outer Sect elders immediately stepped forward, storing the magic artifacts into the twelve Storage Magical Artifacts previously taken out by Li Ping’an, and then returning the Storage Magical Artifacts to him.
The group of Immortals once again formed a semi-circle.
But at this moment, the disciples of the sect looked at Li Ping’an with eyes full of disbelief.
Li Ping’an stepped forward and performed a bow, saying in a clear voice:
“The disciple has indeed refined many magic artifacts using this method.
“These twelve magic artifacts were all modified by my father, with the treasured materials all exchanged within the sect with the monthly supply.
My father had instructed me to offer these magic artifacts to the sect when the time was right.
“Today, I present this artifact-refining method to our sect, wishing it everlasting prosperity, the Path of Clouds a radiant arch, and the disciples a perpetual path to Immortality.”
The Immortals responded with gentle smiles in their eyes.
The Inner Sect Elder stroked his beard, nodding, and turned his head to look at the Sect Leader directly.
Wanyun Sect’s Sect Leader got up and walked forward.
My Dao heart is greatly pleased, I shall drink heartily today!”
The Sect Leader added:
“As for the previous magical combat matter, let’s let bygones be bygones!
“The fervor of young disciples cannot be considered alongside such a marvelous method of artifact refining, right?”
The Immortals of Kaiyun Peak quickly performed a bow: “We obey the Sect Leader’s command.”
The Sect Leader laughed and said, “Dazhi brother, what do you think about this?”
“I fully defer to Sect Leader brother’s handling!”
Li Dazhi, who had been silent, wanting to let his son stand out more, now could no longer dodge the attention and spoke seriously:
“Today, Ping’an brought out this method.
In truth, it was a bit hasty as the method still has many aspects that need improvement.
“My son and I were originally engaged in this sort of business in the mundane world.
Never did we expect to one day attain a fortunate destiny, enter the sect to cultivate, and after much pondering, ultimately combine both cultivation and forge work as one.
“Since joining the sect, our master has treated me like his own son.
He never scorned me for my terrestrial merchant’s stench, imparted to me the Immortal law, and protected my ascent.
The Elders and officials have shown great care to me and my son, and the disciples of the various peaks have treated us with respect and courtesy.
My son and I are deeply grateful.
“Today, we present this artifact-refining method to the sect not seeking rewards or fame, but solely hoping to contribute to the sect.
We ask only that the sect, treat it kindly!”
The Sect Leader’s eyes filled with emotion, and all the Immortals present cast admiring glances.
Li Ping’an chuckled inwardly.
Immortals who had cultivated in the mountains for a long time were mostly simple and content with little desire for fame and fortune;
His father’s acting had also reached a naturally effortless level.
But then again, perhaps his father really thought that way…
Li Ping’an respectfully handed the twelve magic artifacts forward, placing them solemnly into Elder Yansheng’s hands.
In the bamboo forest behind the main peak’s mountains.
Daoist Kongming observed Li Dazhi’s figure from afar, his elderly eyes filled with additional contemplation.
This disciple truly possessed Great Fortune.
Wanyun Hall’s Sect Leader decree:
‘In-sect Immortal Li Dazhi, disciple of the Founding Ancestor, with noble virtue, has since joining Wanyun Sect made numerous contributions to the sect, and today has presented a marvelous method of artifact refining, creating a source of prosperity for our Wanyun Sect.
He is hereby rewarded with five units of Spirit Stones, a hundred boxes of Treasured Materials, and twelve Immortal Treasures.’
‘Li Dazhi possesses lasting fortune and talent, a rare and valuable talent for our sect, therefore he is appointed as the Vice Hall Master of Miaoyun Hall, holding the rank of Outer Sect Elder and is granted unrestricted access to the six halls of the sect.’
‘Inner Sect Disciple Li Ping’an, son of Dazhi, Qing Su’s disciple, with pure character and diligent in cultivation, has made meritorious contributions today and is rewarded with three units of Spirit Stones, fifty boxes of Treasured Materials, and six Immortal Treasures.’
