Lu Changsheng had been cultivating in the Ancient Su Family for five years. During this time, he rewarded Su Xiaoqi with more than ten thousand bolts of various silk and satin, and the system returned the highest quality of nineteenth rank fabric.

Lu Changsheng had yet to obtain the Cloud Silk Brocade.

On an ordinary day, Lu Changsheng continued to instruct his disciples.

This time, however, Lu Changsheng bestowed upon them the nineteenth grade refining material “Space Snow Brocade” that he had accumulated over the past five years.

Space Cotton contains the power of space and can be used to craft Dao Artifact-level magical treasures, making it extraordinarily valuable.

[Ding, you have given your disciple Su Xiaoqi the nineteenth grade refining material “Space Snow Brocade”, and the tutoring reward return has failed.]

[Ding, you have given your disciple Su Xiaoqi the nineteenth grade refining material “Space Snow Brocade”, and the tutoring reward return has failed.]

…

Lu Changsheng bestowed ten bolts of Space Snow Brocade in succession, yet the system did not return anything.

[Ding, you have given your disciple Su Xiaoqi the nineteenth grade refining material “Space Snow Brocade”, and received a two hundred thousand times reward return: twenty-first grade refining material “Cloud Silk Brocade”.]

Suddenly, a cold system prompt made Lu Changsheng extremely excited.

He finally acquired the Cloud Silk Brocade!

The system returned a full bolt of Cloud Silk Brocade.

Only half a bolt of Cloud Silk Brocade is needed to repair the Mountain and Rivers Chart.

The remaining half can be given to Elder Wu of the Heavenly Fire Holy Land as recompense.

A Refinement Grandmaster’s service is costly, potentially more expensive than the raw materials.

“The several dozen silver needles of the Storm Pear Flower Needles were all destroyed in the self-explosion, and need to be remade, otherwise the Storm Pear Flower Needles will be useless.”

After obtaining the Cloud Silk Brocade, Lu Changsheng knew that the Mountain and Rivers Chart could be repaired.

There’s another magical treasure that needed repairing, which is the Storm Pear Flower Needles.

The Storm Pear Flower Needles are crafted from the special material “Ice Soul Divine Iron” of the Nether Sea.

The Storm Pear Flower Needles are a fourth-grade Dao Artifact, but the real killing move is not in the needles themselves, but in the Devouring Heaven Demon Poison coating them.

With poison, the power of the Storm Pear Flower Needles is greatly enhanced.

The Devouring Heaven Demon Poison is enough to kill a Greatly Accomplished God-King and injure a Great Expert.

It was precisely using the Storm Pear Flower Needles that Lu Changsheng gravely injured a peerless expert on the Divine King Ranking, thus escaping a disaster.

As a means of survival, it was necessary to repair the Storm Pear Flower Needles.

“The Ice Soul Divine Iron is a nineteenth grade refining material and indeed formidable, but unless catching the opponent off guard, making it unavoidable, it’s hard to breach their defense. If silver needles are forged with materials of a higher grade than Ice Soul Divine Iron, the power of the Storm Pear Flower Needles could further increase. Additionally, the wooden box for launching the Storm Pear Flower Needles could also be improved.”

Since he was already employing a Refinement Grandmaster, improving the Storm Pear Flower Needles was not difficult.

Lu Changsheng had a piece of Ice Soul Divine Iron.

However, he did not intend to directly use the Ice Soul Divine Iron to forge the silver needles.

After Su Xiaoqi reached the Divine King Realm, bestowing nineteenth grade refining materials would trigger a system reward as well.

As long as there was a return, the quality of materials would certainly exceed that of Ice Soul Divine Iron, making the silver needles forged from them stronger than the original Ice Soul Divine Iron needles.

Lu Changsheng’s piece of Ice Soul Divine Iron was the size of a fist, and he granted it all to Su Xiaoqi.

[Ding, you have given your disciple Su Xiaoqi the nineteenth grade refining material “Ice Soul Divine Iron”, and received an eight hundred times reward return: twentieth grade refining material “Nether Sea Ice”.]

Hmm?

The system returned a large block of sea ice, rather than metal.

Nether Sea Ice?

Lu Changsheng recalled the records from relevant texts.

Nether Sea Ice is ice from the deep trench of the Netherworld Sea Bottom, absorbing the extreme cold power of the Nether Sea, as hard as iron, and once in the body, it causes cold poisoning, making it difficult to circulate True Qi.

Ice can also be crafted into weapons, so categorizing Nether Sea Ice as a refining material makes no mistake.

Once Nether Sea Ice is used as a refining material, its power would undoubtedly surpass that of Ice Soul Divine Iron, making it even more troublesome.

Lu Changsheng once again headed personally to the Heavenly Fire Holy Land.

Improving the Storm Pear Flower Needles was no trivial matter; Lu Changsheng wanted to personally discuss the modification of magical treasures with Elder Wu.

In the Heavenly Fire Holy Land, Elder Wu was in front of a furnace, using Six Desires True Fire to melt precious refining materials into molten iron, the blazing flames reflected in his eyes.

A disciple from the Heavenly Fire Holy Land came to report: “Master, the Holy Son of Tai Hua, Lu Changsheng, requests an audience.”

“Found the materials so quickly?”

Elder Wu was slightly surprised.

For a cultivator of his rank, five years was merely a fleeting moment.

And that was the twenty-first grade Cloud Silk Brocade.

In just five years, the other party could obtain the Cloud Silk Brocade?

“Invite him in.”

Elder Wu was quite courteous to Lu Changsheng.

Soon, Lu Changsheng was ushered in.

Lu Changsheng got straight to the point and took out the Cloud Silk Brocade.

Seeing a complete bolt of Cloud Silk Brocade, Elder Wu’s eyes lit up.

Such material is used to craft the Mountain and Rivers Chart.

Even for him, this level of refining material is rarely used.

Lu Changsheng took out a bolt of Cloud Silk Brocade, the implication was clear.

The extra material from the Cloud Silk Brocade could be given to Elder Wu as a service fee.

“I didn’t expect you to obtain the Cloud Silk Brocade so quickly; your channels are indeed extensive.”

Elder Wu took the Cloud Silk Brocade. With the main material in hand, repairing the Mountain and Rivers Chart wasn’t a big issue.

“I’d also like to commission Elder Wu to craft a set of Storm Pear Flower Needles and improve the crossbow.”

Lu Changsheng took out the wooden box for launching the Storm Pear Flower Needles and handed it to Elder Wu, asking for his assistance in the modification.

“You have such a concealed weapon?”
