The Brightness-Extinguish Hundred Lotus looked extremely intricate, with each of its palm-sized petals hiding ten Soul Extinguishing Needles.
When activating the Brightness-Extinguish Hundred Lotus, the petals would flutter down, and the Soul Extinguishing Needles hidden within would be unleashed. With twelve petals, a total of one hundred and twenty needles would sweep across the battlefield, their might not to be underestimated.
Li Cheng memorized the method for creation and immediately began the refinement process.
Since the range of the Brightness-Extinguish Hundred Lotus wasn’t as vast as the Ten Thousand Destruction Box, Li Cheng planned to only refine one and then continue making more Soul Extinguishing Needles.
In the midst of Duan Shuiliu’s shocked and envious expression, Li Cheng effortlessly refined a mid-grade divine Brightness-Extinguish Hundred Lotus.
Like the Thousand-Mechanism Umbrella, the Brightness-Extinguish Hundred Lotus could be reused by adding new Soul Extinguishing Needles or other types of needle-based hidden weapons. It wasn’t a one-time-use artifact like the Ten Thousand Destruction Box.
Therefore, a large number of Soul Extinguishing Needles needed to be prepared!
Glancing at his remaining 270 million Divine Stones, Li Cheng purchased materials for another six thousand needles and continued the refinement process.
As a result, he was left with only 30 million Divine Stones.
By the next day, Li Cheng had successfully refined five thousand six hundred mid-grade Soul Extinguishing Needles and four hundred high-grade needles, and he emerged from seclusion satisfied.
Deacon Zhao knew Li Cheng must have refined a large quantity of Soul Extinguishing Needles and wished to purchase some, but Li Cheng outright refused.
Such dangerous items were only safe in his own hands.
With four hundred and ten high-grade Soul Extinguishing Needles, unless a Divine Monarch intervened, there were no worries at all, and naturally, Li Cheng would not sell them.
With the Ten Thousand Destruction Box, the Brightness-Extinguish Hundred Lotus, and these Soul Extinguishing Needles in hand, there was nothing to worry about for the upcoming promotion mission.
But, in consideration of Deacon Zhao’s days of waiting without sleep, Li Cheng still made a purchase of Refining Materials worth ten million.
Duan Shuiliu’s eyes shone bright behind him, knowing that some of these materials were definitely meant for him!
“Master Li, thank you for your patronage!” Deacon Zhao said with a joyful expression, delivering the materials.
Li Cheng had spent three hundred million Divine Stones through him in these few days, a substantial achievement indeed!
Although Deacon Zhao didn’t know why Li Cheng was reluctant to sell the Soul Extinguishing Needles, he didn’t probe further and respectfully saw Li Cheng and Duan Shuiliu out of the door.
Upon leaving the merchant guild, Li Cheng sent a message to Kong Lianqing, arranging to meet at the Demon-suppressing Department’s Affairs Hall.
When Li Cheng arrived at the Affairs Hall with Duan Shuiliu, it was as quiet as ever, with Kong Lianqing already waiting there.
“You mentioned a surprise, could it be that you succeeded?” As soon as Li Cheng stepped into the Affairs Hall, Kong Lianqing’s voice floated over.
Behind the counter, the old man looked over with an expression full of anticipation.
Li Cheng smiled, placed several mid-grade and high-grade Soul Extinguishing Needles on the counter, and said, “Please take a look, senior.”
As the old man inspected the needles, Li Cheng took out the Thousand-Mechanism Umbrella, “Miss Kong, thank you for your Artifact Refining Technique. Consider this a dividend.”
Kong Lianqing, aware of Li Cheng’s formidable Artifact Refining Technique, did not refuse and after recognizing the artifact as her master, her usually cool face showed a look of astonishment!
She had thought it was merely a mid-grade divine defensive artifact, but to her surprise, it concealed seven hundred and twenty Soul Extinguishing Needles within!
And all those needles were mid-grade!
Though mid-grade Soul Extinguishing Needles posed a limited threat to peak and complete True Gods, the appearance of the Thousand-Mechanism Umbrella meant even complete True Gods would have to duck their heads in caution.
It can be said that with the Thousand-Mechanism Umbrella, one could almost deter anyone below the level of Divine Monarch.
“Having refined mid-grade and high-grade Soul Extinguishing Needles in such a short time, it seems Master Li has indeed succeeded in improving the refinement technique. I wonder if you would be willing to sell this technique to the Affairs Hall?” asked the old man with a chuckle after inspecting the needles.
Li Cheng nodded, “How many points can I get for it?”
Stroking his beard, the old man suggested, “Two options. One is to sell the technique outright to the Affairs Hall for a million points, which would let you easily become a three-star Demon-suppressing Envoy. I’d have to ask the head for specifics.”
Li Cheng knew that advancing from two-star to three-star required five hundred thousand points, and from three-star to four-star required five million points. Of course, each promotion also necessitated completing a promotion mission.
“The second option is to leave the refinement technique here at the Affairs Hall, where all Artifacts Refiners of the Demon-suppressing Department can pay a fee to view it, and you would receive ten percent of the points collected,” continued the old man.
Understanding the old man’s introduction, Li Cheng realized he had a choice between outright sale or profit-sharing. In the case of profit-sharing, every point spent by the Demon-suppressing Department’s Artifacts Refiners to view his Artifact Refining Technique would earn him a ten percent share.
“How much would you charge for viewing, senior?” Li Cheng inquired.
“The higher-ups need to decide, but I’m guessing a few thousand!” replied the old man.
If viewing cost a few thousand points, Li Cheng would receive several hundred – roughly equivalent to completing a one-star mission.
It might not seem like much, but in the long run, profit-sharing would likely yield greater earnings.
Moreover, there was no need to worry about an Artifact Refiner leaking the technique after viewing it, as the Demon-suppressing Department had ways to prevent that.
With that in mind, Li Cheng chuckled, “I’ll go with the second option, but could I get an additional eighteen thousand points?”
The old man smiled, “You’re aiming to exchange that drop of Xuanwu Essence Blood, aren’t you? I will make a request right away, but don’t forget you need to be a two-star Demon-suppressing Envoy to exchange for it.”
Li Cheng nodded, having made preparations and planning to undertake the promotion mission.
Soon, there was a response from the upper echelons of the Demon-suppressing Department, and the old man joyfully announced, “Congratulations, Master Li. They agree to give you two hundred thousand points and a ten percent share of the points earned in the future.”
Li Cheng smiled, settled Duan Shuiliu, and then set off to undertake the mission!
Slaying True God Realm evil cultivators or members of the Demon Race had become trivial.
“Congratulations. With the consumption of Soul Extinguishing Needles, you won’t be short on points in the future!” Kong Lianqing said.
