With that, his life should no longer be in danger.
Then, it was ti to repair the Green Frost Sword.
With the elixir delivered, Yan Qingwu’s suspicions should deepen even more... Wang Mu sighed to himself. To secure a sliver of hope for survival, I still need to repair the Green Frost Sword quickly. That way, even if she sees through , I might still be able to save my own life.
Wang Mu didn’t believe that Yan Qingwu would let Dongfang Mu, her Heart Demon, go just because he had given her an elixir.
Her personality was extrely stubborn; once she set her mind on sothing, it was nearly impossible to change.
If she said she would slay her Heart Demon, she definitely would.
Sotis, I wonder, Wang Mu thought, is it worth going to all this trouble—finding strange fires, refining Spirit Pills, seeking Immortal Elixirs—just to save a heroine who intends to kill ?
It really doesn’t seem worth it... But many things are hard to asure by re worthiness. For instance, I initially spent countless days trying to win over this heroine.
And it’s not like I treated them purely as tools to beat the ga. If I didn’t genuinely like them, at least a little, who would willingly spend so much ti collecting various clues and completing side quests to win them over one by one?
From a ga’s perspective... perhaps what I’m doing is just another kind of survival strategy, Wang Mu thought, shaking his head.
Repairing the Green Frost Sword... If I rely only on myself, it definitely won’t work... Wang Mu mused for a mont and decided to go to Yijian Peak to subtly inquire.
「Yijian Peak, Main Hall.」
"That brat is back and looking for ?" Cheng Tianyong abruptly stood up from his ditation cushion. "Good, good! Let him in. I need to have a proper talk with him!"
Senior Sister Tang Qi imdiately went out and gestured to Wang Mu, "Master is in a good mood today."
Wang Mu nodded. It’s good to have allies.
He entered the main hall of Yijian Peak and addressed Cheng Tianyong, "Greetings, Master Cheng."
"Hmph." Cheng Tianyong stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his expression unreadable. "You’re quite capable, brat. Many of my Sect’s disciples have been swayed by you! I heard you caused quite a stir at the Alchemy Dao Convention. Why co to my Yijian Peak instead of focusing on alchemy?"
"Master Cheng, you jest..." Wang Mu coughed. "Actually, I’m most interested in Artifact Refining!"
"I don’t believe you," Cheng Tianyong stated flatly.
Wang Mu thought for a mont, then took out the top-grade Chiyun Flying Sword and handed it to Cheng Tianyong. "Master Cheng, please take a look. I’ve been secretly studying Artifact Refining recently!"
"Just a re Chiyun Flying Sword... Hmm?" Cheng Tianyong glanced at it and suddenly froze. "The quality of this flying sword far exceeds that of the Chiyun Flying Sword from the blueprints... It’s even beyond top-grade?"
With just a glance, Cheng Tianyong discerned its peculiarities.
"You..." He fell silent for a mont. "How long have you been self-studying Artifact Refining?"
"For a very long ti, even longer than alchemy," Wang Mu replied. "But my skill hasn’t improved, so I can only manage to craft flying swords of this level."
Cheng Tianyong’s mouth twitched. This brat is really asking for a beating!
Although this top-grade flying sword is technically low-grade, its quality is already comparable to a mid-grade Magic Artifact.
Without extensive, dedicated practice in Artifact Refining, it would be impossible to craft such a flying sword.
And crafting a Magic Artifact above top-grade would require a asure of luck.
Besides, how could he achieve this in such a short ti?
"To be able to craft such a flying sword, you must have indeed hit a bottleneck," Cheng Tianyong mused, then asked, "By the way, I recall you obtained the Green Frost Sword in the Holy Land. Why aren’t you using it?"
"I can’t use it," Wang Mu said. "Otherwise, why would I bother crafting flying swords myself?"
Cheng Tianyong nodded slightly. That does make sense.
"That Green Frost Sword..." Cheng Tianyong sighed softly. "For you, it is indeed unusable; you can only act as its custodian for now."
"Master Cheng, what exactly is the story behind the Green Frost Sword?" Wang Mu asked.
"The Green Frost Sword is Elder Yan’s Destiny Divine Sword," Cheng Tianyong explained. "The Elder cherished it greatly and used it to slay countless Devilish Cultivators. But later, after a duel between Elder Yan and the Supre Master of the Fengyue Sect, the sword was ruined."
"Even if it was ruined, with Elder Yan’s prowess, she could probably still have used it. Yet, she chose to abandon it in the Holy Land and never used it again... As for her reasons, we are not clear."
So there was such a history to it! Wang Mu’s mind raced. A duel with the Supre Master? That ans she fought Mu Lanxue? The Destiny Divine Sword is surely a Divine Immortal Sword; how could it be ruined so easily? It seems there are definitely so hidden complexities here...
"Then why not repair the sword?" Wang Mu asked casually. "With Elder Yan’s capabilities, it shouldn’t be too difficult, right?"
"Extrely difficult." Cheng Tianyong chuckled. "You certainly have bold ideas. This sword is unique in all the world. It was affected by the great changes between heaven and earth, and even beca entangled with the karma of ancient Saints, possessing extraordinary power. Now, it’s damaged to the point of being re scrap iron, retaining only a slight spiritual nature. Repairing it is almost impossible anywhere under the heavens."
"Almost?" Wang Mu exclaid. "Doesn’t that an there’s still a possibility?"
"There is a possibility," Cheng Tianyong affird. "Back then, I thought just as you do now, wanting to repair this sword for Elder Yan to bolster the prestige of our Sword Sect. So, I traveled the world and found one or two potential thods."
"This sword possesses imnse latent power—not to ntion its materials—so if one wishes to repair it, it absolutely cannot be reforged," Cheng Tianyong stated. "There’s only one way to restore it."
"What thod is that?"
"There is an Exotic Treasure in this world called the Splitting Stone. It’s said to possess the ability to reinforce any damaged item, provided the necessary materials are available. It was a Divine Artifact owned by an Ancient Sage before the great worldly changes, but it has long since been lost."
