Chapter 126: The Qingfeng Sword’s Add-on

Since her revival, the Everlasting Fairy has faced consecutive setbacks. First, she failed to scare Lu Yang and instead got beaten up by Yun Zhi, then she tried to prove her usefulness by attempting to control Lu Yang to fight above his level and was taught a lesson.

Now she realized that adhering to her past experiences was futile. The thought processes of current cultivators are much more active than in ancient times, and they also collaborate closely, accumulating cultivation experiences across different realms.

This was unimaginable in ancient times when there was still open rivalry and calculations among fellow disciples over resources. How could sects or tribes possibly share their cultivation experiences unconditionally?

Oh, there was one exception: the ancient barbarians, who did enjoy discussing their cultivation experiences within their tribes.

Lu Yang stretched, got up, and performed a set of broadcast exercises to stretch his muscles and joints, which crackled pleasantly, making him feel inexplicably comfortable.

“Where are you planning to go?”

“To Hundred Refinements Peak, to customize a weapon.”

Upon arriving at Hundred Refinements Peak, Lu Yang saw the cafeteria was as bustling as ever.

The Everlasting Fairy said in surprise, “Wow, the Dao Seeking Sect has good food. So many disciples are here to buy food.”

Lu Yang nodded: “The quality of the food is indeed good.”

However, the purpose of this trip was not the cafeteria but the Hundred Refinement Hall on the other side of the mountain.

The cafeteria sold common weapons, which, although good, might not suit everyone.

Thus, the Hundred Refinement Hall came into being, with a master weapon refiner stationed there, specializing in selling custom-made weapons.

“Are you… Brother Lu Yang?” At the entrance of the Hundred Refinement Hall, a surprised voice stopped Lu Yang.

Lu Yang recognized the person and realized, “You are Li Haoran from my cohort!”

In Lu Yang’s cohort, there were three people with single spiritual roots: Lu Yang’s sword spirit root, Meng Jingzhou’s single spirit root, and Li Haoran with the fire spirit root.

“A little over a month ago, I heard Senior Sister Zhou Lulu saying you were taking a bath in lava. Have you finally been able to come out?”

Speaking of the lava bath, Li Haoran’s face looked quite unpleasant, as if recalling some bad experiences.

“Finally met the master’s requirements, learned to swim in lava, eat fire lizards raw, and successfully built my foundation. I just got out. I was about to look for the master to ask about the next steps when Senior Sister Zhou Lulu said she hadn’t seen my master for three days, not knowing where he went.”

Lu Yang wondered if the Fifth Elder and his master were so close that they were meditating together.

“After building your foundation, you need to go to the Mission Hall to receive a sect mission.”

Li Haoran nodded; he had heard his senior brothers mention this.

“Do you know the way? Shall I accompany you?” Since he called him Brother Lu Yang, Lu Yang felt it was his duty as a senior brother to help.

“Then I must thank Brother first.”

On the way to the Mission Hall, Lu Yang learned about Li Haoran’s background. His parents were cultivators, not very high in cultivation, only at the foundation-building stage. They were overjoyed to learn that Li Haoran had the fire spirit root and spoiled him immensely.

This also led to Li Haoran’s arrogance and impetuous character.

For example, during the climb of the Questioning Heart Mountain, Li Haoran’s determination was not strong, and many with lesser talents reached the fiftieth step before him; he was the last to succeed.

Lu Yang guessed that the Fifth Elder, Zhou Xin, saw Li Haoran’s flaws and specifically made him soak in lava for a year to temper his determination.

Now, it seemed, the effect was significant.

In the Mission Hall, the two couldn’t find a task suitable for Li Haoran.

“By the way, do you know how to refine tools?”

“Of course, the master said I have reached the top foundation-building level of tool refining.” The fire spirit root is most suitable for tool refining, and Li Haoran had learned tool refining knowledge in lava for a year.

“How about this: I post a tool refining task, you take it on, and if you complete it, my purpose for coming here, tool refining, will also be achieved.” Lu Yang had already thought it through; the tool refiners in the Hundred Refinement Hall start from the Golden Core stage, which is expensive, and the weapon he needed to refine didn’t require such a high-level tool refiner.

“Brother Lu Yang, you don’t have to accommodate me. I can just come back to the Mission Hall in a few days.”

Lu Yang shook his head: “I’m not accommodating you; I just happen to need tool refining, and you are the most suitable candidate.”

“The most suitable?” Li Haoran felt flattered.

Lu Yang nodded: “Yes, you’re the cheapest.”

Li Haoran: “…”

The two returned to Li Haoran’s refining room. Lu Yang took out the Qingfeng Sword, and Li Haoran was startled by the high quality of the sword, which was beyond what he, a foundation-building cultivator, could modify.

“No, no, no, Brother Lu, you should find someone else. My skills are limited; I can’t refine such a sword.”

Lu Yang knew he had misunderstood and smiled: “You misunderstood; it’s not about refining this sword. I want to add some decorative small parts to the exterior of this sword.”

Li Haoran breathed a sigh of relief; this was simple: “Do you have a blueprint?”

“Yes.”

Lu Yang was prepared and took out a blueprint four meters in length and width, which didn’t look like it was for “small parts” at all.

Li Haoran saw the contents of the blueprint and had an even weirder expression. Although it wasn’t difficult to refine, it didn’t seem to be related to ornaments at all.

At least, he had never seen an ornament that looked like this.

“I’ve been planning to learn flying sword technique recently. As a sword cultivator, how can I not use a sword? But flying around in the sky without any traffic rules is too dangerous. For safety reasons, I designed this blueprint.”

“I plan to sit in a steel shell while operating the flying sword technique, with the flying sword installed underneath the steel shell as the power source.”

“The steel shell will have a seat for sitting, and install two rows of seats, so when I master the flying sword technique, I can take others to fly.”

“This thing is called a steering wheel; it can adjust the direction.”

“And windows. Ordinary people have trouble making glass from sand, but it shouldn’t be a big problem for us cultivators to refine glass, right?”

“Technically, there should be brakes, but since I’m the power source for the flying sword, there’s no need to install brakes. Foot braking will do…”

“Right, this big iron shell must be easy to install and disassemble; otherwise, it wouldn’t be convenient during battle.”

Lu Yang detailed the function and refining requirements of the small ornament, leaving both the Everlasting Fairy and Li Haoran feeling enlightened.

“It’s not that I’m afraid of heights; it’s just that flying alone is too lonely. I want to bring more people along.” Lu Yang emphasized that he was not afraid of heights, “Can you refine it?”

Li Haoran thought it over. Although the item on the blueprint was peculiar, it wasn’t difficult to refine. It was just that he had never refined such a thing before and might need a few tries to get used to it: “Yes.”

“That’s great. These are Black Thunder Iron, which can be used as refining materials.”

“And this mask, please refine it as well, make it harder so it won’t be easily damaged.” Lu Yang took out a tofu mask, needing a fake identity for going out.

“As for the price, how about twenty contribution points?” Lu Yang offered the price himself.

Twenty contribution points, two thousand spirit stones, the price was definitely not low.

Li Haoran accepted the task.
