Chapter 299: Chapter 272 Divine Artifact Refinement_2

But realizing that Li Cheng was an Ascender, one couldn’t view him through ordinary eyes, so he refrained from saying more.

“Big brother knows so much, capable of both array formation and artifact refining. Big brother, once you’re finished refining, could you teach me?” Yin Yue had already finished a basin of Divine Rice and spoke with anticipation.

Yin Qingshan gave Yin Yue a sideways glance, “Is this something you can teach casually?”

“Grandpa, I can become a disciple, I’ll take big brother as my teacher, then he can teach me,” Yin Yue said with a giggling smile.

Yin Qingshan fell silent, gave Li Cheng a look, and then secretly began to consider it.

Li Cheng smiled without a word, holding the metal sphere the size of a human head in his hands, his palms gathering fierce flames, and he started refining.

Yin Qingshan quickly ushered Yin Yue out, as the Pill Artifact Array was secretive; how could one casually observe?

Li Cheng paid no attention and continued refining with all his might.

Half a day passed, and the metal sphere the size of a head had shrunk down to the size of a fist, its color a desert gold. This was the limit of Li Cheng’s refining ability.

Next, Li Cheng controlled the shrinking sphere, stretching it into a short sword and continuing to temper it.

After a long time, Li Cheng took out Scar’s corpse, remotely extracted a jar of Divine Blood, took a piece of Confucian Cultivator’s Divine Bone, and added them both to the tempering process.

Gradually, the original desert gold color of the short sword in its core started to show a faint bloodline. The hilt of the sword, refined from the Divine Bone, became as smooth as jade.

Before they knew it, it was noon the next day. Li Cheng took another jar of Divine Blood and submerged the crimson short sword in it for quenching.

The blood vapor churned, divine might permeated, the Divine Blood dissipated quickly, and the short sword finally stabilized completely.

At this moment, the short sword was less than forty centimeters long, desert gold throughout, emitting a faint red glow, with that central bloodline emitting an eerie red light.

The hilt was like jade, very smooth to the touch, and filled with the grand and vast Haoran Air.

A closer look would reveal that both the hilt and the blade were covered with faint, yet dense, Divine Patterns naturally formed during the refining process, which were indicators of a Divine Artifact!

There were over 7,200 Divine Patterns!

“It actually worked! Refining a Divine Artifact is much simpler than array formation,” Li Cheng clicked his tongue. With just a try, he had actually managed to refine a Divine Artifact.

However, Li Cheng himself had solid knowledge and experience in artifact refining. Now transported to the Divine Realm, it was merely a change of environment. Refining with Divine Materials, Divine Bones, and the like naturally wouldn’t trouble Li Cheng.

Sensing the divine might, Yin Qingshan, who had been guarding the door, cautiously poked his head out. Seeing the short sword floating in front of Li Cheng, his eyes widened, “A Divine Artifact!”

“Brother Li is truly remarkable. In less than a day’s time, he actually managed to refine a Divine Artifact, and from its quality, it’s nearly reaching the level of a mid-grade Divine Artifact!”

Unable to contain himself any longer, Yin Qingshan rushed into the room, staring intently at the short sword, clicking his tongue incessantly.

“With the Divine Artifact ready, let’s start forming the array!” Li Cheng stood up and said.

Yin Qingshan quickly bowed, “Thank you, Brother Li. Once this calamity is over, I will return the sword!”

“There’s no need. Since I’ve formed the array, there’s no reason to take out the sword and break the array,” Li Cheng shook his head.

Yin Qingshan, however, quickly shook his head, “That can’t be done, that can’t be done. This sword is too precious. If sold, it could fetch at least 7,200 Divine Stones.”

Li Cheng looked at Yin Qingshan with confusion, “Is the price of a Divine Artifact calculated by its Divine Patterns?”

“The price of weapon-type Divine Artifacts is generally calculated like that, but those with special functions will be more expensive.”

Li Cheng nodded, understanding. If that was the case, then Divine Stones were not hard to earn!

This goes to show, mastering a skill is indeed very important!

Next came the array formation. For the Hidden Spirit Array, Li Cheng had already achieved mastery. Yin Qingshan assisted at the side only to find that he was of no help at all.

Yin Qingshan even began to doubt whether Li Cheng had just comprehended the Hidden Spirit Array.

How could it seem like he had set it up countless times? How else could he do it so proficiently, as if it was second nature?

In less than half an hour, a light membrane soared into the sky, covering the entire Hidden Spirit Village, and then it vanished, disappearing from sight.

Yin Qingshan understood that this was the array perfectly integrating with the environment, becoming invisible.

At this moment, a million miles away, two Giant Beasts were speeding along, each with seventy to eighty people standing on their backs, all with solemn expressions.

“This is killing me, without sleep or rest, we’ve searched nearly every place and haven’t found a clue.”

“Quit your grumbling, if the two masters found out, you wouldn’t even know how you died.”

“Only the last two villages are left. Actually, our direction of investigation is flawed. Although these villages all have Heaven Gods, the strongest among them are only at mid-stage Heaven God level, which is definitely not enough to kill the Third Master.”

“Wouldn’t the two masters be aware of this issue? But after asking around in Cloud Bright City, there were no outsiders, so we can only start from these villages.”

“I say, since only two villages are left, why not just randomly pick one to be the scapegoat?”

This suggestion brightened the eyes of the others.

Almost everyone had thought of this idea, but no one had mentioned it openly.

Once it was pointed out, it was different.

The leader glared, “Nonsense, shut up!”

Hearing this, everyone bowed their heads slightly. If the leader didn’t agree, they had no choice but to continue their search.

But the next second, the leader spoke again, “Is that Hidden Spirit Village up ahead? Last year, they only paid five hundred catties of Divine Rice. They couldn’t make up for it this year and even clashed with the Third Master, fearing retaliation, so they struck first, luring the Third Master and his men into the formation and not sparing a single one.”

These words suddenly invigorated everyone’s spirits!

“That’s right! Hidden Spirit Village has some nerve to dare kill our Third Master. Brothers, what do you say we should do?” someone cried out.

“Kill!”

“Destroy Hidden Spirit Village and avenge the Third Master!”

In no time, the morale skyrocketed!

The giant beasts they were riding on even became excited and suddenly sped up towards Hidden Spirit Village.

In Hidden Spirit Village, Li Cheng gave the Array Mark to Yin Qingshan, then suddenly turned his head towards the east.

“They’re coming, but it’s strange. It doesn’t seem like they’re here to investigate, but rather, they’re coming with murderous intent.” Li Cheng was puzzled. Could they have been found out?

That shouldn’t be the case. As long as the villagers of Hidden Spirit Village didn’t talk, it shouldn’t be discovered so quickly.

In these past days, the villagers of Hidden Spirit Village hadn’t gone out, and there were no fluctuations of the Message Jade Slip, so logically, the message shouldn’t have leaked.

Yin Qingshan took a deep breath, “No matter, with the Hidden Spirit Array in place, even if the First Master himself came, we have nothing to fear.”

If the Hidden Spirit Array was activated, everything within it could be concealed, making it impossible to find from the outside. However, if enemies were lured into the array, it could be activated to trap and kill them. Even ordinary True Gods could meet their demise.

Li Cheng and Yin Qingshan walked towards the village entrance, and a group of villagers followed with resolute expressions.

The distant footsteps grew nearer, and the villagers couldn’t help feeling tense. But seeing that the village chief and Li Cheng were both composed, their calm demeanor became a source of reassurance for everyone.

Before long, everyone saw two giant beasts rapidly approaching, with a wave of powerful auras pressing towards Hidden Spirit Village.

“Hidden Spirit Village is right ahead, destroy it to avenge the Third Master!”

The one leading was a mid-stage Heaven God, his war saber pointing towards Hidden Spirit Village as he shouted loudly.

“Where did the leak happen?” Li Cheng thought to himself, still unable to figure out how Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold had found out.

Yin Qingshan drew a deep breath and commanded, “Everyone, fall back to the ancestral temple!”

The ancestral temple was deep within the village—he planned to lure the two giant beasts into the array!

As everyone retreated, the shouts of the one hundred and fifty-sixty people from Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold grew even louder, and many of them flew off the backs of the beasts and pursued into the village.

The moment everyone entered the ancestral temple, the two giant beasts and those humans had completely entered the village too, yet they failed to notice that the entire village was enveloped by an invisible formation.

As Yin Qingshan was about to activate the array, Li Cheng stepped forward, “Let me do it.”

Without waiting for Yin Qingshan to respond, Li Cheng casually waved his hand, and in that moment, countless terrifying sword lights suddenly appeared throughout the village.

The sword lights shimmered desert gold, interlaced with strands of blood, causing one’s scalp to tingle!

At this instant, the people from Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold who had just rushed in did not hesitate to turn around and flee!

“Damn it, it’s a second-level Divine Array, run for your lives!”

” Who said we should pick Hidden Spirit Village as the scapegoat? With a second-level Divine Array, the Third Master must have died here, and we’ve walked right into the trap!”
