Chapter 290 You still said you have never refined any weapon!

Spirit Emperor once said that she might have missed a major opportunity in her life, but Ice Feather Emperor was dismissive, because she felt that Li Xuanfeng would not be able to overcome this tribulation.

“I’ve never doubted his talent; I just thought he wouldn’t be able to overcome the tribulation!”

“Whether it’s his Heaven-Defying cultivation talent or his exaggerated Artifact Refining talent, if he can’t overcome the tribulation, everything will be fleeting!”

“If I had truly stood with him back then, I might have been drawn into a vortex from which I couldn’t escape!”

“There are too many powerful individuals who want to deal with Peerless King; this Heaven Refining Grand Formation might be his greatest tribulation of death, and even Spirit Emperor might be in danger!”

“I don’t necessarily think I made the wrong choice!”

Thoughts flashed through Ice Feather Emperor’s mind, and then she refocused on herself, diligently refining artifacts.

As time passed.

Li Xuanfeng’s process of Materials Fusion was nearing its end.

Buzz!

Soon after, a powerful fluctuation spread out.

Thirty-six kinds of Materials were perfectly fused at an optimal balance point!

The power contained in various Materials intertwined to form a brand new power; the sword embryo was complete, and next came quenching, shaping, and imbuing with spirit.

The so-called quenching was to remove Impurities.

This step was too simple for Li Xuanfeng; he had done it countless times when devouring and refining other Domains.

Wisps of Chaos mist emerged from the Spirit Fire, and all Impurities were removed at an extremely fast speed.

The Spirit Fire released terrifying high temperatures, and Li Xuanfeng’s fists were like iron hammers, striking down on the sword embryo one punch after another.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of clashing metal echoed; that simple and crude shaping method was quite to the Yao Race’s liking.

The sword embryo gradually changed, eventually forming a complete longsword.

Buzz!

A powerful fluctuation spread out, and a King-grade weapon was already formed!

Finally, there was the most special step: imbuing the weapon with a spirit.

The spirit was the weapon spirit.

There were two ways for King-grade weapons to give birth to a weapon spirit.

The first method was external imbuing, integrating an existing weapon spirit into the weapon, for example, after the Azure Nether Sword was shattered, the weapon spirit Xiao Qing resided in the Azure Heaven Sword.

The second method was when the Materials used to forge the weapon itself possessed spirituality, and through a secret technique, these spiritualities were guided out, eventually forming a weapon spirit.

“I will teach you a simple spirit-guiding secret art!”

Spirit Emperor had been paying attention to Li Xuanfeng’s Artifact Refining, and when he reached this step, her voice transmission sounded in his mind at the opportune moment.

The secret art was indeed very simple.

Of course, the so-called simplicity was for Li Xuanfeng and Spirit Emperor; if one’s Comprehension Ability was not enough, just grasping this secret art would take some time.

【Ding! Xin Ruyu recited “Artifact Sect Spirit Guiding Art” once, deepening memory once, ten times return, you learned “Artifact Sect Spirit Guiding Art” and gained ten memory deepenings!】

Originally, with Li Xuanfeng’s Comprehension Ability, understanding this secret art was not difficult, and after the System’s return, the time was greatly shortened.

Divine Sense surged, silently performing the secret art, and the spirituality hidden deep within the longsword was slowly awakened by Li Xuanfeng, eventually forming a simple consciousness body.

The weapon spirit was complete!

A Low Grade King-grade weapon was successfully refined!

Li Xuanfeng grasped the illusory longsword simulated by the Grand Formation.

“This counts as my first time, right?”

Li Xuanfeng thought to himself.

As an experienced and theoretically solid quasi-Emperor-grade Artifact Refiner, his first time refining a Low Grade King-grade weapon was a perfect performance.

But others didn’t know he was a quasi-Emperor-grade Artifact Refiner; they only assumed Li Xuanfeng was new to Artifact Refining.

Although they had anticipated it when he fused the Materials, witnessing his successful refinement now, both the Yao Race and the Human Race could not hide the shock in their eyes.

“It really succeeded!”

“First time Artifact Refining, no Artifact Refining furnace assistance, starting with a King-grade weapon—such a terrifying high difficulty, yet he succeeded! And so smoothly!”

“There’s a reason his cultivation talent is so abnormal!”

“Although his powerful strength is the foundation, without sufficient Comprehension Ability, he absolutely couldn’t have done this!”

“A Prodigy is indeed a Prodigy in all aspects!”

“You didn’t say that before; you said good cultivation talent doesn’t mean good Artifact Refining talent!”

“Nonsense, don’t slander me, I never said that; Peerless King has no shortcomings!”

Witnessing Li Xuanfeng’s first unassisted refinement of a King-grade weapon succeed perfectly, the Yao Race and the Human Race were collectively shocked.

With such terrifying talent, the title of the Eastern Barren’s number one Artifact Refining talent might have to change hands!

Nine Blazing Crow Emperor and Scarlet Flame Tiger Emperor looked at each other, speechless; undoubtedly, their Artifact Refining talent rankings had both dropped by one position.

A monster like Li Xuanfeng, whose cultivation talent was already enough to be disheartening, now even his Artifact Refining talent was so abnormal—how could he let others live?

“Is his Artifact Refining talent really that exaggerated? Could there be an element of luck?”

The fluctuations emanating from the complete King-grade weapon made Ice Feather Emperor, who had already focused on Artifact Refining, once again divert her attention.

The more monstrous and outstanding Li Xuanfeng performed, the more apparent her initial choice seemed to be wrong.

In fact, from Li Xuanfeng’s Artifact Refining process, the possibility of luck playing a significant role was very, very small; he was simply inherently highly talented!

Ice Feather Emperor also understood this, but she still chose to deceive herself.

Compared to the shock of the Yao Race and the Human Race, and Ice Feather Emperor’s complex emotions, only one person in the entire venue felt genuinely happy.

That was Spirit Emperor.

It had been too long!

She had waited for this moment for too long!

In the Dao of Artifact Refining, her talent was unparalleled; even Ice Feather Emperor found it difficult to keep up with her thinking in terms of understanding Artifact Refining.

A long time ago, she had hoped to meet someone with whom she could explore and discuss the Dao of Artifact Refining.

Unfortunately, she had never met such a person.

Even for Li Xuanfeng, she only held a glimmer of hope, deep down not truly believing he could be so monstrous in Artifact Refining.

Until now, she could finally confirm that Li Xuanfeng also possessed extremely terrifying talent in Artifact Refining, a talent that might even surpass her, the Eastern Barren’s number one Artifact Refining talent!

“This is more challenging!”

Spirit Emperor’s beautiful eyes glowed with unprecedented joy, and her gaze towards Li Xuanfeng was filled with admiration for the first time.

“Fellow Daoist Li!”

As expected, Spirit Emperor once again proactively sent a voice transmission to Li Xuanfeng.

“You still say you haven’t refined artifacts before!”

Li Xuanfeng could clearly feel that, unlike before, Spirit Emperor’s voice transmission this time was full of teasing.

“I really haven’t.”

Li Xuanfeng said with a faint smile.

“Come on, I’ll be waiting for you on the fifth floor!”

“I believe in you, and I hope you can enter the fifth floor!”

Spirit Emperor’s beautiful eyes held a smile.

Seeing her like this, Li Xuanfeng knew that his previous actions of imitating Spirit Emperor’s habits and techniques were correct.

Li Xuanfeng nodded.

Buzz!

Space rippled, and the King-grade weapon Li Xuanfeng had simulated and successfully refined disappeared.

A King-grade Low Grade Formation Master’s handbook and a rune of comprehension descended, hovering before his eyes.

Li Xuanfeng’s Divine Sense swept over it, quickly flipping through.

Then he refined the rune, gaining some further comprehension of the Dao of Artifact Refining.

“It’s time to go to the second floor!”

Li Xuanfeng took a step, the invisible Formation obstruction disappeared, and the space shifted, successfully entering the second-floor space.

The Emperor-level individual he had been eyeing earlier had already voluntarily given up Artifact Refining and was teleported out.
