Chapter 760: The Heavenly Phoenix Fire—Nothing More

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The process of fusing the white ore was extremely simple and easy, so much so that it was beyond Ou Yangming’s imagination.

Ou Yangming was also puzzled during the process. Since the white ore could be refined so easily, why did Peng Yanbing abandon it after he acquired it? The sect elder did not have an unearned reputation; he was the greatest person in the Beast King Sect’s smithing all, and he was a true smithing master.

If Peng Yanbing missed the white ore by an oversight, Ou Yangming would not have found it strange.

After all, n.o.body could guarantee that one would never make mistakes. However, the white ore was found in Peng Yanbing’s treasure room, which showed that he attached some importance to it.

Since it was important to him, why did he ignore it?

It was worth noting that the white ore carried a Unique Attribute. Although the Self-recovery attribute was not as valuable as spirits, it was definitely uncommon.

Nonetheless, no matter how dubious Ou Yangming was, he still focused on the smithing process at the moment.

As said by Yuqi the Venerable One, without the special materials, even Ou Yangming, who possessed the Heavenly Phoenix Fire, would not be able to enhance the longsword’s durability. If he tried to improve the attribute by force, the 2 notable skills attached to the weapon would be erased.

When the white ore successfully became integrated with the longsword, a special situation that could not be understood by the young fellow happened to the weapon.

A queer suction force emerged from the longsword. It not only absorbed the spiritual power from the outside world, but it also seemed to be absorbing power from Ou Yangming’s Military Fire.

Needless to say, this was because Ou Yangming was not controlling it. If he had controlled it, the suction force would be helpless against his Military Fire.

As Ou Yangming withdrew his Military Fire slowly, the longsword was revealed again. Even so, it had undergone an incredibly subtle change as compared to before. In particular, a faint light flickered at the center of the treasure sword as though it brought overflowing vitality to the ice-cold world.

Ou Yangming smiled as he was satisfied. Sure enough, other than absorbing energies from other ores to strengthen itself, the white ore could also easily a.s.similate into a piece of equipment.

Through the Military Fire, the equipment’s properties were displayed in Ou Yangming’s mind once more.

[Item: Ice Devil’s Sword]

[Equivalent Rank: Magic Tool, Fine Grade, Rank Three]

[Attributes: Sharpness +38, Toughness +37, Power +2 (White Silver), Agility +1 (White Silver), Mental power +10%, Durability 6]

[Skills: Ice Devil’s Roar, 1-meter Freeze]

[Unique: Self-recovery (1 point of Durability is recovered every day)]

Apart from the additional Unique Attribute, which was Self-recovery, the longsword’s Durability had also been increased from 5 to 6 points.

Ou Yangming stood up and walked out of the room with a smile. Now that he had a successfully refined longsword, he believed that it would be able to quell Yuqi the Venerable One’s anger.

He was sensed by Yuqi the Venerable One from afar as soon as he left the room. Instead of waiting at a distance away, the Venerable One walked over and was accompanied by someone that was not expected by the young fellow.

Peng Yanbing noticed the confused look in Ou Yangming’s eyes. He chuckled and explained, “Master Ou, Sir Venerable One ordered me to come.”

Yuqi the Venerable One nodded. “Yes, didn’t you say that you obtained the material from his treasure room? I asked him to come over to learn.”

Ou Yangming smiled awkwardly. The exchange that he did with Peng Yanbing was not a fraud, but he more or less felt embarra.s.sed when the sect elder suddenly appeared.

He cleared his throat and said, “That sounds good too. Yuqi the Venerable One, please take a look at this.” He handed the longsword to the Venerable One.

Yuqi the Venerable One accepted the equipment and was surprised after he took a few glances at it. He was the one that took out the equipment, hence he naturally knew it well. Even though the Venerable One did not know smithing art, he could sense that the longsword had undergone a certain change that he did not know of.

He hesitated for a while before he handed the longsword to Peng Yanbing, who was next to him.

Peng Yanbing released the Appraisal Light without any hesitation. He wanted to know more than Yuqi the Venerable One what exactly the white ore, which he had given away, was.

Following a flash of light, Peng Yanbing widened his eyes and could not help but exclaim, “How… How is this possible?”

Through appraisal art, the equipment’s properties were revealed. The other properties were nothing much; the longsword was hard to come by, but Peng Yanbing had seen those properties before. Nevertheless, what was the Unique Attribute in the bottom row?

Yuqi the Venerable One furrowed his eyebrows and questioned coldly, “What’s the matter?”

He was displeased, and he thought, ‘Why did Peng Yanbing forget himself like that?’

Peng Yanbing smiled bitterly and stammered, “Sir Venerable One, th-this sword…” He gritted his teeth after some thought and uttred, “You can continue to use it.”

Yuqi the Venerable One could not help but laugh. “I’ve been using it.”

The sect elder waved his hands and explained, “Sir, what I meant is that the sword’s Durability is being recovered. There’s no need to repair it, and you don’t need to be concerned about it anymore.”

“What?” This time, Yuqi the Venerable One was shocked.

The sword’s Durability had dropped to 5 points before this. It could still be used several times, but it was known that the precious Fine Grade magic tool would be sc.r.a.pped once its Durability declined to 0 points.

Who knew, Ou Yangming did something to the longsword and fixed it.

Yuqi the Venerable One looked at Ou Yangming in astonishment and asked, “Master Ou, is the treasure that you got from his treasure collection room… No, before you came to find me, you didn’t know what equipment I was going to give you.” His eyes were piercing as he asked all of a sudden, “Did you find something that can repair any equipment?”

Ou Yangming chuckled and replied to him, “Sir Venerable One, you’re kidding. Is there such a treasure in the Spiritual Realm?”

The Venerable One flushed. He knew it was an unreliable guess, but he could not think of other explanations.

Peng Yanbing looked at the longsword in his hands dumbfoundedly and asked abruptly, “Master Ou, the… The ore that you took away—is that the key to this attribute?”

Ou Yangming knew he could not hide the truth from him, thus he admitted it calmly. “That’s right. That ore has a wonderful effect of allowing a piece of equipment to self-recover its Durability.”

The sect elder had guessed the truth long ago, but he still could not help but gasp. He mumbled, “That… How could it be such a treasure?”

Yuqi the Venerable One finally understood what they were talking about. He glared at Peng Yanbing and thought, ‘How could you not recognize such a valuable item? How have you been taking the position as the Smithing Hall’s sect elder for so many years?’

He was secretly complaining, but he knew very well n.o.body else in the Beast King Sect was superior to Peng Yanbing in terms of smithing art.

“Self-recovery—Master Ou, has this equipment become a legendary piece of Everlasting Equipment?” Yuqi the Venerable One’s eyes flickered as he asked in a deep voice.

Ou Yangming pondered for a brief moment before he answered, “It’ll be too much to say that it’s a piece of Everlasting Equipment. As long as you don’t overuse it in one go and leave even 1 point of Durability for it, it’ll recover 1 point every day and will take at most a month to self-recover to its peak state.”

Yuqi the Venerable One’s face took on an interesting look. He moved his lips a little as if he wanted to say something, but he ended up saying nothing.

He was feeling very regretful at this moment. If he knew Ou Yangming was going to attach this attribute, he would have taken out his best equipment.

The longsword was powerful but as compared to the Venerable One’s cultivation base, it was not considered the best weapon. Now that such a treasured attribute was attached to it, he felt that it was simply pointless.

Despite that, he could not express his regret anymore.

Peng Yanbing looked at Ou Yangming in a daze and lamented, “Master Ou, I’ve used that ore before, but I couldn’t melt it no matter what I did. If I may be so bold, what technique did you use to incorporate it into the equipment?”

Ou Yangming was struck dumb. He came to a sudden realization that the ore had such tolerance, which was why even Peng Yanbing failed to probe its wonders.

Fortunately, that was the case, or the young fellow could not have gotten his hands on it.

He grinned and answered, “Sect Elder, I only used the Heavenly Phoenix Fire—nothing more.”

“Ah, the Heavenly Phoenix Fire…” Peng Yanbing’s face kept twitched, and he looked rather depressed.

‘The Heavenly Phoenix Fire—nothing more!

‘Motherf*cker, apart from you, who else in the Spiritual Realm has the Heavenly Phoenix Fire?’

Yuqi the Venerable One looked away and sighed. It turned out that it was not Peng Yanbing’s mistake, but Ou Yangming was too potent.

Moreover, the young fellow was so potent that the Venerable One felt helpless.

After all, the Heavenly Phoenix Fire was something that even Yuqi the Venerable One envied.

Having said that, the fire was the only thing that had such a marvelous effect.

That said, the Venerable One and the sect elder did not know that Ou Yangming’s Heavenly Phoenix Fire alone might not be able to achieve this; the white ore was only so obedient because of the cooperation between the giant head and the Heavenly Phoenix Fire.

Yuqi the Venerable One’s eyes flickered, and he blurted after some time, “Master Ou, I have a favor to ask of you.”

Ou Yangming was taken aback, but he quickly responded, “Sir Venerable One, please go ahead.”

“Heh, Danzhou and Zhangzhou share a common border, and the Humans from both sides have close relations.h.i.+ps, where we interact with one another in various aspects.” The Venerable One paused for a while before he continued, “Our prefectures have agreed to hold a large-scale exchange once in every century. Hehe, among the areas of exchange, smithing and alchemy are included.”

The young fellow was smart enough to understand what the Venerable One meant right away.

“Sir Venerable One, are you asking me to represent Danzhou in the exchange?”

“Exactly!”
