Characters who've lived for hundreds or thousands of years truly know how to carry themselves.
Yi Qingtian didn't impose a feeling of obligation on Lu Zheng by giving him materials; instead, he first clarified what materials Lu Zheng got from his sect and then supplented them.
To this, Lu Zheng thought to himself, you really don't need to consider my feelings, you could just give even better materials!
Ahem! Just kidding!
Of course, since Yi Qingtian had put it this way, it would be impolite for Lu Zheng to refuse further.
So Lu Zheng took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "Thank you, Brother Yi. In that case, I won't hold back!"
"Good, good, good!"
Yi Qingtian was actually the happiest about Lu Zheng accepting, as he nodded repeatedly, "Younger Brother Lu, there's no need to be polite. I usually have nothing to do, flying all day in the sky, plus my sharp eyesight allows to often find so strange things."
"Oh, and there's also Jade Fall Cyan Mist!" Yi Qingtian said, waving his hand to make two leather bags appear in his hand.
This ti Lu Zheng saw clearly that these two leather bags flew out from a leather wristband on Yi Qingtian's wrist.
"This is two hundred years' worth of Jade Fall Cyan Mist from Qingqi Mountain. Is it enough for you?"
"More than enough, way more than enough! Actually, I can't use all of it!" Lu Zheng was taken aback and quickly waved his hands.
Kidding, the Sword Qi and Radiance produced by a whole mountain like Feiyu Mountain, the Jade Fall Cyan Mist produced in two hundred years by Qingqi Mountain, is probably already one-third to half of Yi Qingtian's collection.
Lu Zheng hurriedly said, "A single sword only needs three years' worth, a total of twenty-seven years of Jade Fall Cyan Mist is a generous gift!"
"Twenty-seven years, that's enough?" Yi Qingtian blinked and pushed the two leather bags over, saying, "It's fine, you use as much as you need now and keep the rest for later. I almost never use this light, and even if I occasionally need so, I've kept plenty."
"No need, really don't need, too much is simply unusable."
Lu Zheng couldn't really accept everything, so he quickly refused, "Brother Yi, let's do it this way. If I need more in the future, I'll co to ask for it, and I won't be polite with you!"
Seeing that Lu Zheng truly didn't want more, Yi Qingtian smiled broadly and took a step back, "Alright, but I know the Sword Refining Technique of Feiyu Mountain, and using three years' worth of light for one sword is indeed not the limit."
Yi Qingtian took back one leather bag, leaving the other, "Younger Brother Lu, you really can't refuse this ti!"
Lu Zheng shook his head with a bitter smile, "A hundred years' worth of Jade Fall Cyan Mist, even if I wanted to refuse, I wouldn't bear to!"
Yi Qingtian laughed out loud and poured tea for Lu Zheng and Shen Ying.
"It's late, younger brother and sister-in-law, stay here for the night," Yi Qingtian said, "And since the materials are sufficient, you can refine the sword on the mountain tomorrow. The gang wind and spiritual Qi at the top of Qingqi Mountain are also beneficial for refining Feiyu Mountain's flying swords."
Lu Zheng glanced at Shen Ying, who naturally deferred to Lu Zheng, so Lu Zheng nodded and said, "Thank you, Brother Yi, we will impose then."
Yi Qingtian waved his hand with a smile, "Not a bother, not a bother, I live alone most of the ti, so it's nice to have so company sotis."
Lu Zheng smiled, "Since it's late, I guess Brother Yi doesn't often cook for himself. Let show off a bit tonight."
Yi Qingtian blinked. He lived alone usually and basically didn't eat anything. If he craved for a taste, he'd just catch a goat or a wild cow, transform into a demon body, and swallow it whole. So, there was no need for a kitchen in his cave dwelling.
Lu Zheng went outside the cave, found a wind-sheltered spot, tapped the gourd, and out ca a whole set of stove, firewood, pots, pans, bowls, plates, ingredients, condints, and fruits and vegetables.
"By the way, does Brother Yi drink?"
"Yes, I do." Yi Qingtian nodded, "I have so good wine I bought in Lu Prefecture in my cave, we brothers will have a drink later!"
Lu Zheng smirked, "When Brother Yi went to Dingfeng Mountain, didn't Brother Hu treat you with Wuliangye?"
Yi Qingtian pouted, "He did, and also an old wine called Flower Carved, both are very good. But Brother Hu said Wuliangye was a gift from a friend, and there's not much left at Dingfeng Mountain. I wanted a few jars, but he didn't, uh?"
Lu Zheng nodded, "In all modesty, Wuliangye and Flower Carved Wine were brewed by ."
Yi Qingtian's eyes lit up, and he gulped.
Lu Zheng waved his hand, and twenty jars of Wuliangye plus twenty jars of Flower Carved Wine appeared, "I brewed this much last ti, Brother Yi, don't mind it's not much."
"That's plenty, that's plenty!" Yi Qingtian chuckled, "Last ti Brother Hu treated , he used two pounds of Wuliangye and one pound of Flower Carved. Let's open a jar tonight."
Lu Zheng shook his head, "These are gifts for Brother Yi, we can't open them tonight. I also brought so drinks. It's enough for tonight."
Saying that, he took out two small jars, each three pounds, and handed them to Shen Ying, "Please put these drinks and the fruits in the cave."
Shen Ying nodded with a smile, took the wine jars and so fresh fruits, gestured to Yi Qingtian, and entered the cave.
...
After satisfying their hunger and thirst, they spent the night without any words.
Early the next morning, Lu Zheng went to the peak of Qingqi Mountain to refine a sword.
Refining a flying sword with tal materials is not the sa as Shen Ying carving a peach wood sword to place under an old peach tree for nurturing. High-temperature flas are still needed to lt the tal and form it into a sword shape.
To be honest, Lu Zheng actually should have taken these materials back to the modern era to refine the sword.
However, during the artifact's forming stage, it's best to do it here. A large number of artifact runes need to be infused, incorporating Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, and even the mysterious Cyan Qi Mountain Gang Wind Spiritual Qi.
This is quite awkward!
But Yi Qingtian solved Lu Zheng's problem because he has a special artifact refining square tripod. As long as you input True Qi, Demon Power, or Blood Qi, any force can ignite blazing flas inside the tripod for refining artifacts, and the fla contains your own power. Using such flas for artifact refining makes using the Dharma Artifact later more like a part of your body.
Lu Zheng was speechless. What is this? Human fuel or embryonic nurturing? It sounds so unscientific.
Lu Zheng then started.
True Qi was input, the square tripod burned, and then he threw all three materials in.
As expected from a professional refining square tripod, the fla infused with Lu Zheng's True Qi quickly lted the Cloud Pattern Iron, followed by the Flowing Light Refined Gold, and finally the Discontinuous Spirit Gold.
Using True Qi to manipulate the materials, using Discontinuous Spirit Gold as the sword body, Cloud Pattern Iron as the sword spine, and Flowing Light Refined Gold as the sword blade, they fused, forming a shimringly radiant flying sword.
Soon, the materials fully lted and fused, forming nine flying swords.
Lu Zheng then used the Sword Qi from the Feiyu Riding the Dawn Sword Scripture to refine the flying swords while continuously sprinkling Jade Fall Cyan Mist into the flying swords.
Soon, each flying sword absorbed nearly five years' worth of Jade Fall Cyan Mist, and the entire flying sword emitted a cyan radiance.
"Almost done!" Lu Zheng said with a smile.
Yi Qingtian nodded and, just before the flying swords were about to take shape, waved his hand, and nine silver feathers shot out from his sleeve, instantly embedding themselves into the sword bodies in the tripod.
"Quickly! Refine the feathers into the flying swords; it will increase their speed by two tenths and sharpness by one tenth!"
Lu Zheng took a deep breath. This was no ti for hesitation. He exerted his internal Sword Qi, channeling it into the nine flying swords, transforming the nine feathers into nine imprints that adhered to the core of the flying swords.
The next mont, the flying swords, all glowing with cyan light and surrounded by misty clouds, flashed with a silver light across their bodies and then disappeared.
The Silver Feather Cyan Mist Sword is complete!
