Chapter 1165: Cleaned Out Completely!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Just then, in the Equipment Refining Tower, Xu Que was exploring the area with curiosity. He marveled at the wonders of everything. Originally, he thought that the tower had important treasure— it might even be the treasure house of the Ling Family. But now that he had entered, he found that it wasn’t what he had thought.
The whole tower was much more s.p.a.cious than one could see from the outside. It was the size of hundreds of football fields. The most important thing about it was that there were countless stoves installed in it. At first glance, he thought he had come to a culinary compet.i.tion where countless chefs were competing.
Then he discovered that the stoves were all special foundry tables for Equipment Refining! Every ten yards, there was a foundry table—orderly, neat, and pretty imposing at first glance. Beside each foundry table, there was also a huge shelf, on which there were many sets of precious materials for Equipment Refining!
Wind & Thunder Devilish Gold?
Ice Soul Dark Iron?
Zhen Yi Silver?
Oh d*mn it, there are so many precious materials for Equipment Refining. I’m going to be rich!
Xu Que looked at all the different kinds of materials on the shelf, and he couldn’t help but cry out. He was astonished. He was amazed to see so many precious materials. He marveled and exclaimed at the collections. There were so many precious materials, and, if he didn’t take everything away, he would be a fool!
“Come on! Come to me! Ha, ha, ha!” Xu Que laughed delightfully. He wrapped up all the precious materials for Equipment Refining from the whole tower. He left out none of them and stored all in the System’s Deposit Storage! Subsequently, he also found that on each shelf, there was an identical formula for Equipment Refining. It was an Equipment Refining Blueprint for a Fourth Grade magic weapon.
100 Miles Killer Blade? Xu Que was startled. The name of this magic weapon is interesting. It can kill within 100 miles, but it was merely a short blade.
Generally, Xu Que was a man who couldn’t tolerate short and small, but that magic weapon had the ability to kill within 100 miles. He was full of curiosity. After a careful inspection of the Equipment Refining Blueprint, Xu Que realized that the way of killing within 100 miles was very special. If he had that weapon, he could merge his Soul Strength and the Spiritual Qi and transform it into millions of blades and kill people hundreds of miles away.
However, the magic weapon had a flaw. If the opponent smashed the transformed blades, the magic weapon would also be damaged. After a certain amount of damage, the magic weapon would disintegrate.
But in the introduction attached to the blueprint, it was evident that it was still loved by many factions, because the 100 Miles Killer Blade was most suitable for group warfare. Everyone in the sect would throw their weapons and their opponents would suffer serious casualties.
“Awesome, this Fourth Grade magic weapon is not bad, now…to the second floor!”
Xu Que smiled and put away the blueprint. His eyes swept to the staircase leading to the second floor, and he headed for it straight away! But to Xu Que’s surprise, the entrance to the second floor was barred. It was protected by a restrictive spell. Xu Que tried with his Soul Strength to see if the restrictive spell could be broken, but as soon as his Soul Strength went near, it was immediately annihilated, leaving nothing!
“D*mn it. This restrictive spell is so strong. System, can you break it?” Xu Que called out to the System.
After a long silence, the System responded, Ding! “After evaluation, it will take 50,000 Acting Tough Points to break this restrictive spell, and it will take seven days!”
“Seven days?” Xu Que raised his eyebrows. He couldn’t guarantee that Ling Feng and his group wouldn’t find him in seven days. If by any chance he was discovered, he was afraid the 50,000 Acting Tough Points would go down the drain!
“No, fortune favors the bold. I can only make a bet to gain greater wealth. I’ll just do it!” Xu Que finally made a decision to let the System break the restrictive spell!
On one hand, he felt that the materials he had harvested on the first floor were definitely worth more than 50,000 Acting Tough Points, so if he had to spend another 50,000 Acing Tough Points for a bet, even if he failed, he wouldn’t lose out, but if he succeeded, it would be double happiness.
He believed that the things on the second floor were more precious than those on the first floor.
Ding! “Starting to break the spell…”
As the System began to break the restrictive spell, Xu Que wandered around the first floor. He divided a wisp of his Soul Strength and entrusted it to the System, which it used to break the restrictive spell. He himself came to a Smithing Table and touched his chin, absorbed in his thoughts.
Seven days, I’m idle anyway. I have all the time right now. I should try to find out if I can refine that 100 Miles Killer Blade or even upgrade it to Fifth Grade. As soon as Xu Que had this idea, he was immediately motivated. He decided to challenge himself and started with the Fourth Grade magic weapon directly!
Although he was able to step into the Equipment Forging Grandmaster with his own strength, it was only a First Grade. Even if he used the Weapon Refining Essence to upgrade a magic weapon to a Third Grade, his real strength was still a distance away from the Second Grade Equipment Forging Grandmaster. But he wanted to give it a try. If he used the Weapon Refining Essence in the whole process, the result would be unbelievably good. He wanted to see if he could successfully produce a Fourth Grade magic weapon or even a Fifth Grade magic weapon.
Heh, heh, if I can familiarize myself with this method, refining a Celestial Artifact will no longer be a dream! Xu Que’s eyes sparkled and he began to enter his trial stage.
With a wave of his palm, he instantly called out his Mystical Fire. At the same time, he took out one of the materials previously placed on the shelf from the Deposit Storage of the System. Obviously, those materials were specially designed for making a 100 Miles Killer Blade—it was a complete set.
Xu Que followed the instructions on the blueprint and started the refinement of the Wind & Thunder Devilish Gold. That kind of Devilish Gold had a special characteristic. After refining, only the purified Wind & Thunder Spiritual Energy was left. It was very suitable for Thunder Cultivators to absorb into their bodies. The effect was similar to the Heavenly Tribulation.
But the power of Heavenly Tribulation couldn’t be used to refine such lower grade magic weapons, but the Wind & Thunder Devilish Gold could, so that kind of metal was very rare. When Xu Que was in the The Four Great Continents, those metals were hard to find. He certainly didn’t expect to see it in Baihui City, in the first floor of the tower in the City Governor’s Mansion, and he definitely didn’t expect to receive so many pieces of it.
Bang!
In the moment when the Mystical Fire popped out, a thunder arc sprang up from the Wind & Thunder Devilish Gold, releasing a wisp of white smoke. Xu Que didn’t hesitate to use the Weapon Refining Essence in the System to supplement it! According to the grade of materials, Xu Que could only use 10,000 points of Weapon Refining Essence. When the 10,000 points of Weapon Refining Essence were used up, Xu Que could feel that his pressure of refining was greatly reduced.
Previously, he had to concentrate on refining, and if he didn’t he would fail. But now he felt that he could watch a movie while he refined. He didn’t need to worry about failure at all. The function of the Weapon Refining Essence was to simplify and speed up the efficiency of refining to the maximum.
It’s too awesome!
Xu Que was greatly surprised. Even in this process, he could vaguely detect that his control and proficiency in Equipment Refining were constantly improving.
That was tantamount to cheating yet achieved an unbelievably good result. At the same time, gradually turning that ability into his ability, it was simply the Equipment Refining version of the “Mother! You need not worry about my learning anymore”!
