"Junior knew that Elder Bai refined nine pills this time, with seven successful ones and two categorized as wasted pills.
Junior wanted precisely the two wasted pills refined by Elder."
"For this, Junior was willing to pay the price of thirty thousand points of Good Deeds."
Shi Lei gritted his teeth and said with a resolute expression.
Several days ago, he reluctantly sold the Magical Artifact he had grown accustomed to using, along with some borrowings, to gather thirty thousand points of Good Deeds, initially intending to bid for an Enlightenment Pill.
However, the auction scene was heated, and faced with bids from wealthy forces like the Yuu Family, Wan Family, and Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, thirty thousand points of Good Deeds did not even qualify for a bid.
At that moment, he had already felt hopeless.
In a fleeting moment, he suddenly remembered that Bai Ziyue still had two wasted pills. Resolutely, he decided to take a gamble.
Even though he knew the wasted pills contained a high chance of pill poison due to impurities, he thought that even wasted pills as Enlightenment Pills would certainly have some efficacy.
In the absence of even the slightest possible solution, he had no choice.
*He could only risk it all.*
"Wasted pills?"
Bai Ziyue’s eyebrows slightly moved, falling upon him, he said, "Do you know the consequences of ingesting wasted pills?
With the determination to swallow wasted pills and close oneself in a Death Closing, why wouldn’t there be a chance for a breakthrough?
Moreover, aren’t you quite young? In three more years, Pavilion Master Qian would open the furnace to refine Enlightenment Pills. At that time, you could completely exchange them from within the Sunrise Daoist Sect.
After all, it is only a matter of a few years."
"It’s too late."
Shi Lei shook his head, revealing a hint of bitterness on his face, as he continued, "I must break through to the Enlightenment Realm before the age of fifty, or Pavilion Master Ye wouldn’t be willing to give his daughter to me in marriage.
In three years, I would be precisely fifty."
"Even with thirty thousand points of Good Deeds, my status would require me to wait a cycle before I could possibly apply for an Enlightenment Pill.
By then, it would be too late.
That is why I planned to obtain those two wasted pills from Elder Bai to impact the realm."
Bai Ziyue’s face was calm, though his heart was somewhat startled, knowing he had encountered the archetypal story of a poor young man and a wealthy family’s daughter whose love faced obstacles.
Of course, compared to a poor young man, Shi Lei’s own conditions were naturally far superior.
"Moreover, how would Elder Bai know that I don’t have the determination to close myself in a Death Closing?
If I couldn’t gain anything from Elder Bai, I would decide to close myself in a life or death seclusion. If unsuccessful, I would accept death, relying solely on my ability to break through realms."
Shi Lei’s eyes slightly lowered, and in his calm tone, a hint of madness subtly revealed itself.
"Forget about the wasted pills."
Bai Ziyue was slightly moved. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I actually still have a well-kept Enlightenment Pill left, intended for other uses.
Since you are so sincere... consider it forming a good bond, and I’ll give it to you!"
With that, he flipped his hand, and a jade bottle appeared in his hand.
"Thank you, Elder Bai."
Shi Lei first showed immense disappointment, then his face gleamed with joy, quickly bowing deeply again, before respectfully receiving the jade bottle.
After carefully confirming the genuineness of the Spirit Pill, he conscientiously exchanged thirty thousand points of Good Deeds with Bai Ziyue before leaving with a thousand thanks.
*"I ultimately still succumbed to softness.*
*But, with thirty thousand points of Good Deeds credited, my somewhat depleted quantity of Good Deeds is replenished again.*
*It already reached forty-five thousand points."*
Bai Ziyue thought inwardly, his gaze suddenly shifted, and he looked into the distance, his eyes turning cold.
*"There are always those unafraid of death, truly thinking that I’m simply a fat sheep?"*
Then he thought better of it, ignoring the thought and directly turned back into his cave mansion.
...
Half a month later, Bai Ziyue walked out of his cave mansion with an eager expression.
Then he hurried straight towards Setting Sun Peak.
However, this time, his target wasn’t the Alchemy Pavilion within Setting Sun Peak but the Artifact Refining Pavilion on the other side of the peak.
Twenty days ago, during the Enlightenment Pill auction, Vice Pavilion Master Zhou Yang of the Artifact Refining Pavilion sought an Enlightenment Pill for his son. Bai Ziyue took the opportunity to propose that the other party tailor-make a Flying Sword for him.
Now, twenty days have passed, and yesterday someone from the other party informed him that the Dharma Treasure was successfully crafted.
Thus, Bai Ziyue ended his arduous cultivation and emerged from his cave mansion, heading directly to Setting Sun Peak.
"With Zhou Yang’s skills as an Artifact Refiner, this custom Flying Sword’s grade is surely not low.
I wonder whether the Flying Sword crafted this time has the potential to become a Top-grade Spiritual Artifact?"
Bai Ziyue secretly anticipated, feeling a touch of anxiety.
Compared to the Alchemy Pavilion, the Artifact Refining Pavilion was equally lively.
The disciples coming and going were more numerous.
Bai Ziyue directly found a steward there and was led by them into a rather spacious hall within the Artifact Refining Pavilion.
"Alchemist Bai, you are here."
Just as he stepped into the hall, an elderly man who was thin and had an ordinary face but exuded a natural aura, promptly greeted him.
It was precisely the Vice Pavilion Master of the Artifact Refining Pavilion, Zhou Yang.
"Thanks to your blessings, my son Pengcheng was able to successfully break through and become an Enlightenment Realm Immortal Master.
Here, I once again express my gratitude for Alchemist Bai’s gift of the pill."
Zhou Yang spoke, clasping his hands and bowing deeply.
"Pavilion Master Zhou, you’re too kind. Although the Enlightenment Pill has remarkable effects, it’s more of an aide.
Your son’s ability to break through to the Enlightenment Realm relied on his own efforts."
Bai Ziyue hurriedly stopped him, smiling and said, "Not to mention, I have a request for Pavilion Master Zhou, don’t I?
I wonder, how is the Dharma Treasure I requested Pavilion Master Zhou to refine?"
"Fortunately, I didn’t fail you.
The Flying Sword has been completed.
As for its grade..."
Upon saying this, seeing Bai Ziyue’s expectant expression, he finally showed a trace of self-satisfaction and pride, saying, "Top-grade Spiritual Artifact.
This time, even I was surprised. Under the inscription of restrictions, the seventy-two Earthly Fiend Restrictions were instantly fused, directly forming a Celestial Spirit Restriction.
This Spiritual Artifact was thereby elevated to become a top-grade Spiritual Artifact."
"A Celestial Spirit Restriction formed, becoming a top-grade Spiritual Artifact?"
Bai Ziyue was overjoyed, his face becoming excited, he hurriedly said, "Pavilion Master Zhou is indeed worthy of being a great Artifact Refiner, managing to craft a top-grade Spiritual Artifact once again.
This allows a junior like me to profit from your success."
"It was also a stroke of luck.
This time, the essence lies in the excellent material of the Flying Sword itself.
Among the materials Alchemist Bai provided last time, the straight ruler split into two segments contained a large amount of Dharma-avoiding Divine Iron.
This Dharma-avoiding Divine Iron is extremely precious, it’s naturally the material for crafting Dharma Treasures.
Paired with the Void Stone and Breaking Secret Silver of similarly exquisite quality materials I used, only then could such a perfect Dharma Treasure Embryo be forged.
With an excellent embryo, naturally, when inscribing the restrictions, it became much easier.
The secret inscriptions of restrictions were densely intertwined, and the seventy-two Earthly Fiend Restrictions naturally merged into a Celestial Spirit Restriction.
This Flying Sword thus smoothly transformed into a top-grade Spiritual Artifact."
As Zhou Yang spoke, his Divine Sense surged, and with a press of his hands, a long treasure box appeared immediately.
With a click, the treasure box opened.
Instantly, a ray of treasure light shot up into the sky.
Bai Ziyue squinted his eyes, and immediately saw within the treasure box, a small sword, entirely silver-white and less than three feet long, lying quietly.
The sword was double-edged, the blade straight, lying quietly within, yet at the tip of the sword, a faint sharpness seemed to emanate, slightly vibrating the air.
"A fine sword!"
Bai Ziyue looked at this sword before him with an inner sensation of delight, his heart pounding, greatly cherishing it.
He reached out and grasped the hilt directly.
Although this was a Flying Sword, it had a hilt as well, typically a place for a cultivator’s Divine Sense to lodge, extremely critical.
It felt quite heavy upon grasping, as though holding a small mountain. With his strength, picking it up was naturally not difficult, but he estimated that generally, a cultivator in the third or fourth level of the Qi Refinement Stage might find it somewhat challenging to lift.
"Naturally, it is a fine sword.
This Flying Sword, as its body consists of Dharma-avoiding Divine Iron, inherently carries the effect of Spell-Dodging; ordinary Magic falling upon it would slide off automatically.
Even if a Magical attack strikes it, it would be correspondingly reduced, at least weakening the attack that falls upon it by fifty percent.
Moreover, with the efficacy of Breaking Secret Silver within, facing various Magical attacks, it is indeed invincible.
Additionally, it’s worth mentioning that because I heard that Alchemist Bai intends to make this his Lifebound Dharma Treasure, I purposefully crafted it with a fully isolated technique.
This Flying Sword does not carry any of my own aura, remaining pure and sacred.
Alchemist Bai only needs to use Heart Blood for invocation, supplemented by Divine Sense, and very soon, this top-grade Spiritual Artifact can be refined, becoming incredibly manageable in use, often capable of demonstrating power and effects far surpassing ordinary top-grade Spiritual Artifacts."
Zhou Yang explained with a face full of smiles.
Bai Ziyue nodded slightly and without hesitation, directly forced out a mouthful of Heart Blood before Zhou Yang, letting it fall onto the sword’s hilt.
Buzz!
The Flying Sword quivered intensely, quickly absorbing his Heart Blood, and Bai Ziyue almost immediately felt a faint connection between his Heart Spirit and the Flying Sword.
With a slight turn of thought, he suddenly felt the Flying Sword in his hand become at least ten times lighter than before.
His Divine Sense brushed across, causing the Flying Sword to gently vibrate.
However, as he had only initially invoked it, leaving his own aura upon it without thoroughly refining it, he could not yet lift the Flying Sword.
But even so, upon immersing his Heart Spirit, he could still feel the Flying Sword’s power.
"In addition to the deposit for the Enlightenment Pill last time, how much more Good Deeds should I give to Pavilion Master Zhou?"
Bai Ziyue was very satisfied with the Flying Sword, but as this was part of the Artifact Refining Pavilion, it was not convenient for him to familiarize and practice with it; thus, he soon returned it into the treasure box, then raised his head and asked.
He had known that such a powerful Flying Sword was far beyond just an Enlightenment Pill.
On the Internal Affairs Pavilion’s exchange list, a top-grade Spiritual Artifact could be priced at fifty to sixty thousand points of Good Deeds, and this Flying Sword, being a top-grade Spiritual Artifact, was naturally even more expensive.
Hence, he was long prepared to spend generously.
