Chapter 313: Refining Broken Star Ore!

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

Bei Feng had not expected that his several months of efforts to recuperate would be solved by a single flower.

“What an amazing land!”

Bei Feng did not hesitate any further and directly popped the flower into his mouth.

The instant the flower landed on his tongue, he retched violently, nearly spitting it back out again. However, he still hardened his scalp and swallowed it.

This flower smelled nice and fragrant; but the moment it entered his mouth, it turned into a disgusting pungent liquid!

This liquid melted into countless tiny threads of energy which infused into his body, binding his wounds together and rapidly healing his injuries.

Dark red blood began to seep out of his body, instantly turning his clean white robes into a dirty rag.

A deep prickling sensation like that of countless needles poking into him arose on every part of his body, causing Bei Feng to grit his teeth and frown deeply.

About ten minutes later, the medicinal strength of the flower finally dissipated. Bei Feng heaved a long sigh of relief.

Only after losing something does one learn to treasure it. In that moment, Bei Feng was exactly like that. His heart was filled with joy!

“Hou!”

Bei Feng raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar as the blood and Qi energy in his body surged!

“Po!”

With a light popping sound, the right leg aperture which Bei Feng had been trying to break through for a long time finally shattered!

A canopy of blood and Qi formed above his head. Although the diameter of the canopy did not even reach three meters, it was exceptionally condensed and stable!

“Crackle!”

Bei Feng moved his limbs, causing loud crackling sounds like that of firecrackers to ring out from his bones and muscles!

After a long time, he finally opened his eyes. At this moment, his entire aura had changed, akin to a sharp sword unsheathed from its scabbard!

Bei Feng quickly returned to his room and took a long bath, completely ridding himself of all the dirt. When he’d changed into a new set of white robes, he instructed the servants to bring in some food.

There were originally many foods that he could not eat, but he was finally able to enjoy them now. He didn’t need to fear that he would get overstuffed from the energy in the food and damage his body.

“Whew!”

Bei Feng spat out a long breath as sharp as a sword, leaving a faint scar on the wall.

With a flick of his palm, a crimson spider corpse appeared in the room.

Bei Feng called a guard over and asked him to slice this spider’s body apart.

This guard was naturally unhappy to perform menial chores for a midget, and he wanted to settle Bei Feng’s annoying requests as fast as possible. With a few casual slashes with his saber, a large hole appeared in the incomparably sturdy carapace of the Sky Fire Spider! Strangely, there was no blood at all.

This Sky Fire Spider seemed to be made out of crystal. Even its innards were crystallized.

Bei Feng retrieved a ball of white spider silk from the corpse and weighed it in his hand.

“The strength of this spider silk should be comparable to the fishing line with the Grade 2 Purple Bamboo Fishing Rod’s.”

Bei Feng laughed lightly. The spider silk was not of much use to him right now, but the internal Dan of the beast was what he needed.

“Dang!”

The golden flying dagger shot out of his body and broke through the ball of spider silk in one shot. He could feel a strong resistance when the sword sliced through the silk, but it was eventually sliced apart.

A completely crimson pearl the size of a thumb was nestled in the middle of the silk ball. Not a single ripple could be sensed from it!

Bei Feng drew the golden dagger across his wrist, causing copious amounts of fresh blood to drip onto the Demonic Beast Dan!

All the blood was cleanly absorbed by the small internal Dan. When nearly half of the blood in his body was gone, the little pearl finally began to melt slowly.

“Hu!”

A white flame burst out around the melted area of the little internal Dan, giving off waves of intense heat and light!

The temperature in the room rose sharply, causing heat waves to appear in the air! However, Bei Feng only felt a comfortable warmth.

Under the guidance of his mental power, the ball of light floated in the air towards Bei Feng. After that, it was swallowed entirely in one gulp!

In the next moment, the Alchemist Azure Fire appeared in his heart, lighting up his heart with its flames. When his blood and Qi passed through his heart, they shrunk and grew more condensed. Although the change was minuscule, Bei Feng could feel it clearly.

A huge stone bowl full of tiny silver fishes appeared in front of Bei Feng, and with a move of his hand, the Alchemist Azure was thrown directly into the middle of it!

“Chi, chi!”

Very soon, a series of crackling sounds rang out as large amounts of Broken Star Fish was burnt into a crisp. A moment later, they disappeared entirely, leaving a layer of powder which remained inside the cauldron. Bei Feng repeated the process, burning all the Broken Star Fish he’d gathered into powder.

Even the huge Broken Star Fish King was not spared. The Alchemist Azure Fire seemed like it could burn through everything. Its pure white flames spread rapidly through the Broken Star Fish King’s body, setting it aflame!

In a mere few seconds, a silver-black item the size of a thumb appeared in place of the incinerated Broken Star Fish King’s body.

Bei Feng picked up the silver black ore and mumbled to himself, “This is the broken star ore?”

This piece of broken star ore which was only the size of a thumb actually weighed over a hundred jin!

Bei Feng had a bad feeling about the entire matter at this moment. Such a pitiful amount of broken star ore was refined from such a huge Broken Star Fish King. In that case, how much broken star ore could he get from those needle-sized Broken Star Fishes?

‘To think that I wanted to refine a weapon using this amount of broken star ore… looks like it’s going to be far from enough!’

Bei Feng sighed lightly as he looked at the small bag of sand in his hands. Or rather, these were tiny bits of broken star ore that were even smaller than sand!

A flame burst out from Bei Feng’s hand, instantly engulfing the small bag of broken star ore.

Bei Feng maintained the flames for an hour before the broken star ore finally began to catch fire!

A few more minutes passed, and just when Bei Feng was thinking of giving up, the bunch of broken star ore finally began to change!

The broken star ore began to melt, and the impurities fell away as dregs.

Finally, a pigeon-egg-sized ball of silver-black liquid was left in his hands.

‘The amount of broken star essence refined is too pitifully little. It’s impossible to craft a new weapon from it. But perhaps it could be used like this?’

Bei Feng’s eyes lit up as an idea popped in his mind.

“Go!”

With a move of his intent, the golden flying dagger appeared and dove into the silver-black liquid!

Using his mental power, Bei Feng wrapped the silver-black liquid carefully around the golden flying dagger and extinguished his Alchemist Azure Fire.

In an instant, the silver-black liquid cooled and solidified. A small silver-black dagger about the size of a palm lay in his hand. There wasn’t any resplendent color on it, and it looked like a trashy iron dagger made of scrap iron which could be bought from any random store on the streets.

“Ding! Grade 7 treasure discovered, Golden Flying Dagger! (This is a flying dagger forged with Geng Gold and Broken Star Essence. It is incomparably sharp, and is especially effective against Qi refining martial practitioners. As this flying sword was forged too crudely, the Geng Gold and the Broken Star Metal will only merge completely under the constant nourishment of blood and Qi!)”

Bei Feng tried to move the dagger with his mental power and instantly discovered the difference—it was much heavier now!

“Weng, weng!”

Bei Feng pushed his mental power to the limit, barely pushing it past the speed of sound!

‘The gravity of this place definitely influences the dagger’s weight and the speed that it can fly at. But the increased weight would also have an effect on its speed. The only thing that’s unclear is how much of this speed could the flying dagger maintain on Earth?’

Bei Feng pondered deeply before placing the matter to the back of his mind. According to the System’s evaluation, this flying dagger could only be considered as a half-finished product. It needed more time to fuse perfectly.

‘When the two different metals merge together perfectly, the grade of this flying dagger will undoubtedly rise again!’

Bei Feng hadn’t expected that the broken star metal was so strong. Just wrapping it around the Golden Flying Sword actually produced such a wondrous effect!
