A weapon-refining essence? Everyone present was startled, even Mo Junchen. They were absolutely stunned! This rod had already been refined by the addition of every single drop of the Purple Sky Age Metal . So, how was it possible for him to add something else to it? Could it be that this old man had material on a par with the Purple Sky Age Metal or even material that was more precious than it?
“Faction Leader Xu’s father, what else would you add to it?” Mo Junchen spoke encouragingly. He was aware that Xu Que was slightly proficient in equipment refining, and this was why he couldn’t understand what was going on. According to reason, if there were other materials, he should have given them to Mo Junchen earlier so he could fuse them with the Purple Sky Age Metal. It was only like this that the refining effects reached their optimum expression. But now, the Purple Sky Age Metal had already been refined completely, and it was fused with the rod. This was why, if Xu Que added something else to it, he would only ruin it. Even if he took out a divine-grade material, the overall effects would be much worse.
“Never mind it, you should rest for now, and let me take care of the rest.” Xu Que chuckled and tapped the ground with his toes. He soared into the sky with the shining, purple rod.
BANG! Xu Que thrust out his fist and sent the rod toward the vicinity of the Divine Fire, which would keep the Purple Sky Age Metal atop the rod at a high temperature. He did this so that the metal wouldn’t cool off and become solid. Just after this, he quickly summoned the System interface to transfer all the weapon-refining essence into the rod.
DING! “After examination, it has been determined that this Middle-grade Celestial Artifact can be promoted into a High-grade Celestial Artifact if it is fused with 5 million drops of weapon-refining essence,” the System’s prompt immediately stated.
“What?” Xu Que’s eyes got wide, and a shocked look appeared on his face. When he had crafted magical weapons previously, he had fused them at most with only several tens of thousands of drops of weapon-refining essence, because there had been an upper limit. He had also been able to break up every Inferior Celestial Artifact into an amount of weapon-refining essence that ranged from 100,000 to 200,000 drops. This was why Xu Que assumed that this Middle-grade Celestial Artifact would also have an upper limit, which would be around several hundred thousand drops of weapon-refining essence.
However, He did not expect that he would have to add 5 million drops of weapon-refining essence to leverage it into a High-grade Celestial Artifact. “This is really…terrific!” Xu Que thought to himself. The ability to leverage something into a High-grade Celestial Artifact was obviously good news, but the current issue that was bedeviling him was where could he get 5 million drops of weapon-refining essence?
“System, please check the Inferior Celestial Artifacts that I have never used,” Xu Que shouted at the System. Another window appeared atop the System interface, and it listed more than 20 Inferior Celestial Artifacts. Ruling out all the ones that he had used, these artifacts would be his whole inventory–they were all Inferior Celestial Artifacts that he had never used. Since every Inferior Celestial Artifact could be broken down and turned into an amount of weapon-refining essence that ranged from 100,000 to 200,000 drops, if he could get 200,000 drops for every artifact and he used all 20 pieces that he had, he would at most get around 4 million drops. Thus, he wouldn’t be able to gather 5 million drops of weapon-refining essence.
“This is very troublesome. Where can I get another ten Inferior Celestial Artifacts?” Xu Que found himself in a dilemma. The weapon-refining essence had to be used during the crafting process or just after he finished the crafting process. If he missed the chance to use the weapon-refining essence, then he wouldn’t be able to use it to raise the rod’s grade. However, he couldn’t get more Celestial Artifacts now, and he could only look on helplessly as a High-grade Celestial Artifact slipped from his hands. It was really a pity!
Xu Que was floating in the air, engrossed in his thoughts. The crowd beneath Xu Que raised their heads to look at him, and they were completely confused once again.
“What is Elder Xu doing?” Ji Wuyun frowned and asked.
“He has moved the rod closer to the fire to keep it at a high temperature because he doesn’t want the rod’s crafting process to end. But why he isn’t taking action, I don’t know,” someone else answered. He couldn’t understand what was happening either. Some people looked at Mo Junchen. After all, he was the most proficient person in artifact-crafting here and the sole King Refiner.
“Guardian Mo, this little…cough, cough, what happened to the Faction Leader’s father?” Duan Jiude also looked at Mo Junchen and questioned him. However, Mo Junchen was just as confused as everyone else, and he shook his head before he spoke weakly, “Why are you asking me? I also have no idea what is happening. I have been confused since he took out the rod.”
“What do you know? I can discern everything with a single glance. He’s communicating with the rod, and he’s trying to nurture his relationship with it,” Buttface shouted, as if he understood everything. The crowd rolled their eyes at Buttface, and they ignored what he said. How was it possible for one to nurture a relationship with an artifact? Even if it had an artifact spirit, this still wasn’t a useful method for nurturing a relationship. Xu Que was motionless. So how was it possible for him to nurture anything? Moreover, this rod didn’t have any artifact spirit.
SWOOSH! At this moment, Xu Que finally moved. He looked down at the crowd beneath him. He stared first at Buttface and Mo Junchen, and questioned them, “Do you have any Inferior Celestial Artifacts? Even a low-grade one would be fine.”
“Huh?” Buttface and Mo Junchen were both taken aback, and they both shook their heads to express that they didn’t have any. In his early years, Mo Junchen had a collection of artifacts, but, when he left the Equipment-Refining Sect, he left all the artifacts he had crafted behind. Now, if one asked him to take out an Inferior Celestial Artifact, he would have to spend time to look for materials and craft one. But Xu Que was now in a special situation, and there wasn’t enough time for Mo Junchen to craft any Inferior Celestial Artifacts. It also wasn’t so easy to gather enough materials for the crafting.
As for Buttface? It was needless to mention it, as even though this fool had a large collection, it was mostly food and drink. Altogether it probably wouldn’t equal even half a piece of an Inferior Celestial Artifact. The crowd present was also startled. They couldn’t understand why Xu Que wanted Celestial Artifacts at such a time.
“What the h*ll, little… That isn’t right. Faction Leader’s father, why don’t you ask me like you have asked them?” At this moment, Duan Jiude, who had been ignored, spoke anxiously.
“You? Why did you raise such a question? If you can take out an Inferior Celestial Artifact, I will eat sh*t”! Xu Que spoke while wearing a disdainful look.
“D*mn it!” Duan Jiude was so infuriated that his ears smoked, and he threw out an ancient tortoiseshell. This was the tortoiseshell used by him previously for divination, and it was unexpectedly an Inferior Celestial Artifact.
All of a sudden, the ambiance became quite awkward. WOOF! Buttface jumped up excitedly, turned his head around, and ran away. He said, “I am going to go have a sh*t”.
The corners of Xu Que’s mouth twitched. He never expected that a fool like Duan Jiude would be so lucky. He didn’t just have an inheritance, he had an Inferior Celestial Artifact. But the tortoiseshell had already been refined by Duan Jiude and turned into a Soulbound Celestial Artifact. This was why Xu Que couldn’t take it and recycle it with the System.
“Ah, forget about it, just forget that I said anything a while ago.” Xu Que waved his hand at him. The next moment, Xu Que’s gaze fell upon Bai Cailing, and his eyes lit up as if he had just recalled something important. “My daughter-in-law, I have something to discuss with you.” Xu Que chuckled and spoke.
Bai Cailing was startled, and she asked, “Elder Xu, what do you want to discuss?”
Xu Que stroked his chin and spoke solemnly, “Hmmm…I have just mulled over the previous matter. According to the marriage contract, as long as you take out ten Celestial Artifacts, your engagement with Xu Que will be canceled and you wouldn’t have to marry him. Why don’t you exchange ten Celestial Artifacts for this?”
When everyone heard this, they were dumbfounded, and all the members of the great factions looked with disbelief at Xu Que. This old man was too wanton. He unexpectedly wanted to sell his daughter-in-law in public for ten Celestial Artifacts… No, that wasn’t right, he wanted to break a promise of marriage in public, and the person involved was the Jade Lake’s saint. He was wanton and unrestrained–he was really wanton and unrestrained!
A weapon-refining essence? Everyone present was startled, even Mo Junchen. They were absolutely stunned! This rod had already been refined by the addition of every single drop of the Purple Sky Age Metal . So, how was it possible for him to add something else to it?
