Chapter 286: Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect

"Master, what is this?"

As Jun Xiaoyao took him to the other side, a trace of confusion flashed across Wu Zhene's face; he was very curious about what Master had to say that could not be spoken in front of Senior Lord of Myriad Artifacts.

Jun Xiaoyao did not speak immediately. After setting up several Restrictions to ensure Immortal Emperor Wanqi could not hear, he looked at Wu Zhene and said with a solemn expression.

"I hope that during the time you spend learning from Fellow Daoist Lord of Myriad Artifacts, you can help him pull himself together and re-establish the Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect."

"The Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect?"

Upon hearing Jun Xiaoyao's words, Wu Zhene could not help but be stunned for a moment. It was as if he had recalled something, and his expression changed accordingly.

"Master, could what you are referring to be the Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect that was extremely famous throughout the entire Upper Realm many years ago?"

"Hmm, precisely. Fellow Daoist Lord of Myriad Artifacts is the Sect Master of the Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect, but after that incident occurred, he became dejected and chose to dismiss the Disciples of the Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect, letting the sect become history."

When he reached the end, Jun Xiaoyao's expression was filled with melancholy.

Hearing this, Wu Zhene could not suppress his curiosity and asked.

"What exactly happened? How could it cause Senior to become so dejected?"

After all, Senior is an Immortal Emperor Late Stage powerhouse. Wu Zhene was very curious about what kind of matter could make a powerhouse of that level so dejected.

Hearing Wu Zhene's words, Jun Xiaoyao hesitated for a moment, but soon waved his hand and said.

"It is not a very important matter, and it is not impossible to tell you. For a Forging Master, their weapons grow with them from the very moment they become a Forging Master."

"Fellow Daoist Lord of Myriad Artifacts is the same. However, he developed special feelings for his Life-Bound Immortal Artifact and they became Dao Companions. Later, when he was attempting to become an Immortal Grade Nine Forging Master, his Life-Bound Immortal Artifact failed its Undergoing Tribulation and was struck down by the Lightning Tribulation, dying on the spot."

"Feeling incredibly guilty, Lord of Myriad Artifacts believed it was his own fault. He thought that if he had not insisted on it, his Dao Companion would not have died under the Lightning Tribulation, so he became dejected from then on and dissolved the Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect."

As he finished, Jun Xiaoyao's face was filled with complex emotions. The Upper Realm is vast and full of wonders; it is not rare for people to become Dao Companions with their own life-bound weapons, but it is rare for them to feel as Immortal Emperor Wanqi does.

Jun Xiaoyao naturally knew a little about why Immortal Emperor Wanqi was so listless; after all, if not for that Life-Bound Immortal Artifact, Immortal Emperor Wanqi might never have embarked on the path of cultivation.

It could also be said that it was precisely because of that Life-Bound Immortal Artifact that the current Immortal Emperor Wanqi exists. With the fall of that Life-Bound Immortal Artifact, how could Immortal Emperor Wanqi not be heartbroken?

Hearing this, Wu Zhene could not help but fall silent. He had never understood the romance between men and women, so naturally, he did not know this kind of emotion, but he also felt a sense of pity for Immortal Emperor Wanqi in his heart.

After a long while, he nodded heavily.

"I understand, Master."

After doing all this, Jun Xiaoyao finally brought Wu Zhene back to Immortal Emperor Wanqi.

"Fellow Daoist Lord of Myriad Artifacts, I am entrusting my only Disciple to you. Don't go ruining him for me."

"Go away, just leave already. I know."

Immortal Emperor Wanqi glared at Jun Xiaoyao, and seeing this, Jun Xiaoyao could only leave Immortal Emperor Wanqi's dojo.

After Jun Xiaoyao left, Immortal Emperor Wanqi looked at Wu Zhene, his eyes filled with depth, and said slowly.

"You kid, you are actually quite extraordinary."

Immortal Emperor Wanqi's gaze made Wu Zhene feel a shiver; it felt as if he had nowhere to hide in front of Immortal Emperor Wanqi.

Fortunately, Immortal Emperor Wanqi did not dwell on it for too long. The next second, he directly threw a codex and a Storage Ring to Wu Zhene.

"This is some of my insight into the path of forging, along with some forging Materials. Read it first, then try your hand at it yourself. If there is anything you don't understand, come and ask me."

After yawning, Immortal Emperor Wanqi returned to his thatched cottage.

Wu Zhene looked at the codex and Storage Ring in his hands, and the next second, he began to flip through the codex. As he read, the knowledge regarding forging in Wu Zhene's mind rapidly enriched.

After entering the thatched cottage, Immortal Emperor Wanqi's expression became incredibly solemn.

"This kid is extraordinary; he actually has five pieces of such high-grade Artifacts. It is his Opportunity, but I fear he is only learning forging because he wants to improve the grade of the Artifacts within his body?"

When he saw Wu Zhene, Immortal Emperor Wanqi felt the existence of Artifacts on him—five high-grade Artifacts at that.

For powerful Forging Masters, they can sense the existence of Artifacts, let alone Immortal Emperor Wanqi, a Forging Master who is only one step away from reaching Immortal Grade Nine.

But even knowing that Wu Zhene had five extremely high-grade Artifacts on him, Immortal Emperor Wanqi's heart felt no fluctuation. He currently had no interest in anything.

Although an Immortal Emperor has the power to reverse time, they cannot save an existence that has died under the Lightning Tribulation, because a Grand Unity Golden Immortal is immortal and indestructible, not bound by the river of time. Once they die, they can never be saved again.

"As for me, I might as well just stay here honestly."

Immortal Emperor Wanqi sighed, then took another gulp of immortal wine.

On the other side, Wu Hao also appeared on Immortal Flame Mountain, looking at the scene before him, he could not help but fall into deep thought.

"Based on my current forging level, forging a Divine Artifact is not a problem, but I cannot personally explain forging knowledge to every member of the Wu Family. Since that is the case, why not recruit Immortal Emperor Wanqi to the Wu Family to serve as a Guest Elder?"

After seeing Immortal Emperor Wanqi, Wu Hao had the idea of bringing him to the Wu Family to serve as an Elder. After all, Immortal Emperor Wanqi is an Immortal Grade Eight Forging Master, which is more than enough to serve as a forging Guest Elder for the current Wu Family.

It is just that given Immortal Emperor Wanqi's current state, it is probably difficult to make him a Guest Elder of the Wu Family.

"However, there is nothing in this world that I, Wu Hao, cannot accomplish. What Immortal Emperor Wanqi cares about most should be his fallen Life-Bound Weapon Dao Companion. If I can save his Life-Bound Immortal Artifact Dao Companion, then it should be possible to make Immortal Emperor Wanqi a Guest Elder of the Wu Family as a matter of course."

Wu Hao thought to himself. Although the conversation between Jun Xiaoyao and Wu Zhene was protected by Restrictions, for a True God Peak like Wu Hao, these Restrictions meant nothing and were as good as non-existent.

However, with Wu Hao's current cultivation, he cannot accomplish this. At the very least, one must have the strength to rival the Heavenly Dao to reach this step.

According to what Wu Hao knows, the fall of a powerhouse above the Grand Unity Golden Immortal is not a true fall; it is just that everything about them has returned to the heaven and earth. That is to say, as long as one's power is strong enough, one can strip the fallen entity away from the heaven and earth.

And this is clearly going against the Heavenly Dao, so one must have the strength to rival the heaven and earth.

According to the intelligence Wu Hao possesses, the Heavenly Dao of the Upper Realm has at least the cultivation of a Heavenly God Peak, which is not something the current Wu Hao can challenge (without using his trump cards).
