Free Web NovelChapter 2783: Chapter 1288
After Luo Yixuan formed her Nascent Soul, Chen Mobai used the Evil Spirit Disk to extract a large amount of Innate Turbid Yin Qi for her to consolidate and enhance her Yellow Springs Spiritual Power.
In the days that followed, Chen Mobai mainly focused on helping the Sect increase its strength.
And the simplest way was naturally to Refine Magic Artifacts for High Rank Cultivators.
He planned to refine one Rank-5 Artifact for each of the Nascent Soul Cultivators of the Five Elements Sect.
The reason he would only refine one each was mainly because, even in the Meritorious Hall Treasury of the Five Elements Sect, there actually wasn’t much Rank-5 materials. For materials of this Grade, if they were formed naturally between heaven and earth, they would need at least ten thousand years, while even counting from the time of the Primordial Ancestral Master, the founding of the Five Elements Sect had not exceeded a thousand years.
Many of those Rank-5 materials in the Reward Virtue Hall had been discovered by E Yun when she was developing the Ruins. The rest were all battle spoils of Chen Mobai’s, such as the bones of Civet Power, the old Flood Dragon’s bones, and so on.
Those parts of Rank-5 True Spirit Essence materials, the ones Chen Mobai kept for himself or had already used, and the portion he gave to Qing Nu, what he thought little of—the scraps and offcuts—were placed into the Reward Virtue Hall to increase the Sect’s foundation.
Yet these scraps and offcuts were precisely the goal the High Rank Cultivators of the Five Elements Sect strove for.
Because after Chen Mobai stepped down from the Sect Master’s position, he announced to the upper echelon Cultivators of the Sect that, in order to reward the support they had given him during his tenure, he had decided to refine a Magic Artifact once for them, charging only ten thousand Contribution Points as a processing fee.
What kind of Magic Artifact they wanted refined would be decided by themselves, and they would provide the materials.
However, since Chen Mobai alone would be doing the refining, it would be on a first-come, first-served basis.
Among this, Chen Mobai also revealed that if they only had Rank-4 materials, then he might only be able to refine a Fourth Rank Weapon, but he would guarantee that the Magic Artifact had Spiritual nature, so it could be slowly nurtured to advance in Grade in the future.
But if they had Rank-5 materials, as long as the quality of the materials wasn’t too poor, there was an eight- or nine-tenths chance of refining it into a Rank-5 Artifact.
Under such circumstances, every Nascent Soul Cultivator of the Five Elements Sect threw themselves into collecting Rank-5 materials.
The simplest way was to exchange for those in the Sect Treasury.
Thus, those Rank-5 scraps that had originally been priced at several hundred thousand, even a million Contribution Points suddenly became hot commodities, with the best ones directly exchanged by people like Yin Qingmei, who received the news first.
In this way, after E Yun took office, she immediately recycled several tens of millions of Sect Contribution Points and balanced many accounts.
When Zhou Ye and Zhou Wangshen, who were holding the fort in the East Barbarians and East Tomb, received the news and returned via the Teleportation Array, they found that only some ordinary Rank-5 Scale Armor, hair, and such remained—the scraps among the scraps.
But even so, they still took them down without sparing Contribution Points.
After all, there was only one opportunity; this was the only Sixth Rank Artifact Refiner in the Tianhe Realm making a move.
Even if the materials didn’t match their own attributes, they still wanted Ancestor Chen to refine a Rank-5 Artifact for them.
Of course, if conditions allowed, they naturally wanted it to be perfect, so after exchanging in the Treasury of the Five Elements Sect, they began through various channels to buy and collect Rank-5 materials that matched the attributes of their own Cultivation Technique.
When this news spread to the Yi Yuan Dao Palace, Xiao Yuli immediately rushed over to ask whether the Branch Sect could enjoy the same treatment.
Chen Mobai naturally treated everyone equally.
Compared to the Nascent Soul Cultivators of the Five Elements Sect, things were much easier for Xiao Yuli. As the Palace Master of Yi Yuan Dao Palace, she had some things to draw on when she went through her family foundation, and because she trusted Ancestor Chen’s character, she had already brought them with her when she came.
Seeing Chen Mobai nod, she directly offered up her Storage Bag with both hands.
Chen Mobai hadn’t expected that the first Magic Artifact he would refine would be for a Nascent Soul Cultivator of the Branch Sect. But with the mindset of spending a thousand gold pieces to buy a fine horse’s bones, he still asked Xiao Yuli in detail about her requirements and did his best.
"Reporting to Ancestor, this Disciple wants to refine a bell-shaped Magic Artifact."
Once Xiao Yuli said this, Chen Mobai understood what she meant.
Just model it after the Primordial Clock.
After all, this was already proven to be the Magic Artifact that could best bring out the might of the Yi Yuan Dao Scripture. Especially after Chen Mobai used the Primordial Clock to repel a Sixth Rank Kui Beast, its might had shaken the Five Continents and Four Seas.
Now, when the Cultivators of Yi Yuan Dao Palace refined their Lifespan Artifacts, the bell shape had already surpassed the Sword Flying Sword.
And when it came to bell-shaped Magic Artifacts, Chen Mobai could be called an expert. After all, his Lifespan Artifact included the Morning Bell, and the Primordial Clock only underwent a complete transformation and had its power greatly increased after being refined anew by him.
After he used Stat Fire to smelt the five pieces of Rank-5 ore with Five Elements properties that Xiao Yuli had brought, he easily refined them into a Stone Bell of Fifth Rank Middle Grade.
On the day the bell was completed, the deep and mellow bell chime resounded throughout Huozhen Immortal City, letting all Cultivators who heard it know that another Rank-5 Artifact had been born.
This Immortal City had previously become famous across the East Continent because Chen Mobai had publicly refined Rank-5 Taoist Robes here, attracting many Artifact Refiners to settle. freēwebnovel.com
But after several decades, once the fervor died down, quite a few talents inevitably left. So this time, Chen Mobai still chose to refine Magic Artifacts here.
This decision once again made Huozhen Immortal City explode in popularity; the housing prices that had been falling began to soar. In the core area near where Chen Mobai was doing Artifact Refining, prices had already risen to the point that even Nascent Soul Loose Cultivators could no longer afford to buy.
After Xiao Yuli, the second person to come calling was Chen Lingming.
Both were Nascent Soul Cultivators of Yi Yuan Dao Palace, one the Palace Master, the other the Great Elder; for them, the foundation was essentially shared.
It was just that Xiao Yuli had picked out the best five, so the Rank-5 ores that Chen Lingming had were slightly inferior in quality.
