Chapter 354 - Chapter 354 Chapter 354 The Advent of the Immortal Artifact

Chapter 354: Chapter 354: The Advent of the Immortal Artifact Chapter 354: Chapter 354: The Advent of the Immortal Artifact Feng Wuchen made continuous critiques, as if he were a judge.

Chi Yuan was so angry that he felt like his lungs were going to explode.

As the strongest Artifact Refiner on the Mainland, who dared to critique his Artifact Refining face to face?

Not to mention daring, no one even had the qualifications.

It was only Chi Yuan who could point out and evaluate other Artifact Refiners; no Artifact Refiner dared to judge him. In the realm of Artifact Refining on the Mainland, Chi Yuan was the authority!

However, Feng Wuchen dared to critique! And he did so with the air of a grandmaster, utterly treating the number one Artifact Refiner of the Mainland like an apprentice.

“In forging an Immortal Artifact, the Immortal Spirit Stone is of utmost importance. As an Eighth-Rank Artifact Refiner, you can’t even preserve the Spiritual Energy of the Immortal Spirit Stone, so what kind of Immortal Artifact are you refining?” Feng Wuchen shook his head again, a look of extreme disappointment on his face.

Zhang Wuhun and Zhang Tianyun were stunned, looking at Feng Wuchen with fear.

None of them could believe that Feng Wuchen would dare to belittle the number one Artifact Refiner on the Mainland!

Chi Yuan’s face twitched with anger, but he dared not erupt in rage – firstly because he was in the middle of Artifact Refining, and secondly because Feng Wuchen could control the fire poison, leaving Chi Yuan no choice but to hold his fury within.

The elders and disciples of the Immortal Tool Pavilion were indignant but dared not speak out.

Just how powerful was an Artifact Refiner like Chi Yuan? He was the existence that all disciples of the Immortal Tool Pavilion looked up to the most! A deity in the hearts of all disciples!

“The technique is passable, and the control over the flame is not bad, better than other Artifact Refiners. Unfortunately, all these are just superficial,” Feng Wuchen commented again, seemingly offering praise, but it was very reluctant.

Eighth-Rank Artifact Refining techniques and control are barely passable? And to say all these are just superficial!

“Utter nonsense!” a venerable elder said in a low voice, his face twisted.

“This brat spouts madness! He is simply insulting the Pavilion Master!” An angry protector clenched his fists so tightly, he wished he could smash Feng Wuchen’s head with a punch.

“Who does he think he is? How dare he be so presumptuous in front of the Pavilion Master!” The genius disciples grew even angrier, their murderous gazes falling on Feng Wuchen.

If looks could kill, Feng Wuchen wouldn’t know how many times he’d have died.

“The Pavilion Master is forging an Immortal Artifact, and indeed a great deal of the Spiritual Energy of the Immortal Spirit Stone has been lost, but any Artifact Refiner could see that, and moreover, it’s simply unavoidable,” the eldest elder said solemnly.

The loss of Spiritual Energy from the Immortal Spirit Stone was something even Chi Yuan couldn’t avoid.

“The Spiritual Energy of your Immortal Spirit Stone has been greatly lost, and once the meteoric iron has melted into molten iron, it is not conducive to blending with other materials but instead will devour them. As an Eighth-Rank Artifact Refiner, don’t you know this simple fact? Such a rudimentary mistake should not occur with an Eighth-Rank Artifact Refiner. How could you still forge an Immortal Artifact? When the meteoric iron is near melting, other materials should be added,” Feng Wuchen said.

“Apart from the Immortal Spirit Stone and meteoric iron, the quantity of the thousand-year Warm Jade and the other materials–if the ratio is too much, it’s not to say there won’t be an impact, but less of the materials can lead to failure in the Artifact Refining. When forging an Immortal Artifact, the quantity of each material should err on the side of more rather than less.”

“Also, when you were smelting the meteoric iron, you deliberately increased the fire, do you intend to speed up the Artifact Refining process, or do you think you’re very good at controlling the fire? Don’t you know that smelting meteoric iron requires a gentle flame? And the Warm Jade, its Spiritual Energy is also very important. If placed too early, Spiritual Energy will be lost. It should be the last to be added to the Refinement Furnace,” he continued.

Feng Wuchen persistently pointed out Chi Yuan’s mistakes, like a grandmaster instructing an ordinary person, not giving Chi Yuan any face at all.

Chi Yuan’s face was extremely unsightly–first, because Feng Wuchen pointed out his mistakes in front of everyone, and second, because everything Feng Wuchen said was correct, which shocked Chi Yuan.

If it were anyone else, even geniuses like Chi Kong would not have noticed Chi Yuan’s speeding up to smelt the meteoric iron, nor the precise proportions needed for the materials to forge an Immortal Artifact, let alone knowing that Warm Jade should be added last in the process.

Just these points alone revealed how powerful Feng Wuchen’s achievements in the field of Artifact Refining were.

At this moment, after Feng Wuchen finished speaking, Zhang Wuhun and the protectors and elders of the Immortal Tool Pavilion were all stunned, looking at Feng Wuchen in shock.

Although Zhang Junlan did not know the truth of Feng Wuchen’s words, seeing Feng Wuchen’s confident speech, he too was greatly shocked.

Liu Qingyang and Miao Qingqing had already been dumbfounded.

In the midst of Artifact Refining, Chi Yuan’s hands changed rapidly, immediately focusing on preserving the Spiritual Energy of the Immortal Spirit Stone, stopping the smelting of the Warm Jade, and starting to blend the essence of other materials with the meteoric iron, which had already begun to take the form of a divine weapon.

Chi Yuan’s sudden change was only apparent to Zhang Wuhun and the protectors and elders of the Immortal Tool Pavilion; their expressions of shock grew even more prominent.

“Oh? Quick to adapt; the Immortal Spirit Stone was almost wasted,” Feng Wuchen said, slightly surprised.

An Eighth-Rank Artifact Refiner is not so acclaimed for nothing–Chi Yuan’s Artifact Refining skills are indeed quite formidable.

After blending the other materials and incorporating the Spiritual Energy of the Immortal Spirit Stone, Chi Yuan only then began to smelt the Warm Jade, extracting its Spiritual Energy while smelting and incorporating it into the fetal divine weapon.

A formidable aura began to pervade from within the Refinement Furnace!

Feeling this immensely powerful aura, everyone present was shocked.

On the faces of the disciples of the Immortal Tool Pavilion, shock gave way to wild joy and excitement.

Feeling the force of this powerful aura, everyone in the Immortal Tool Pavilion knew that Chi Yuan had once again successfully forged an Immortal Artifact!

This formidable aura was definitely stronger than that of a Spiritual Artifact, even for cultivators who had never seen an Immortal Artifact before, could guess at this moment–this essence was too powerful.

“An Immortal Artifact! The Pavilion Master has forged another Immortal Artifact!”

“The Pavilion Master truly deserves to be the number one Artifact Refiner on the Mainland, so powerful! And the aura of this Immortal Artifact is much stronger than the ones the Pavilion Master forged before! It might even be a medium-grade Immortal Artifact!”

“Haha! The Pavilion Master has forged an Immortal Artifact! That kid has nothing to say now, right? He was nagging just now, disturbing the Pavilion Master’s Artifact Refining. If he couldn’t forge an Immortal Artifact, I’d like to see if he still has the face to meet people!”

“I think he doesn’t understand how to craft Immortal Artifacts at all, just spewing nonsense. Would a truly powerful person be as arrogant and disrespectful as he is?”

The disciples of the Immortal Tool Pavilion cheered excitedly, heaping scorn upon Feng Wuchen one after another.

However, the protectors and elders of the Immortal Tool Pavilion couldn’t feel happy; instead, their faces were filled with shock, and they remained motionless.

The disciples all thought they had been stunned by the Immortal Artifact that Chi Yuan had crafted.

“He really crafted an Immortal Artifact!”

“Such a terrifying aura! An Immortal Artifact! It’s really an Immortal Artifact!” the younger members of the Zhang family were utterly astonished.

Zhang Tianyun frowned and said, “To think he succeeded in crafting it on his first attempt! This is a mid-grade Immortal Artifact!”

Zhang Wuhun was looking at Feng Wuchen beside him in horror at this moment, and so was Zhang Wufeng; clearly, they had both noticed something.

“The Immortal Artifact that Chi Yuan crafted was entirely based on Feng Wuchen’s instructions! My God, what is the origin of Dan Emperor? To what extent has his artifact refining realm reached?” Zhang Wuhun was extremely terrified in his heart.

“The Spiritual Energy of the Immortal Spirit Stone has mostly dissipated. Using the Pavilion Master’s own crafting method, it would definitely have failed, but by following Feng Wuchen’s advice to leave the Wen Jade to the last, he managed to compensate for the lack of Spiritual Energy! That’s what allowed the Pavilion Master to craft it successfully!” The protector was hugely shaken.

“The Pavilion Master actually crafted the Immortal Artifact by following that youngster’s instructions!” The elders saw it too.

Indeed, Chi Yuan managed to avoid failure by simply following the brief instructions given by Feng Wuchen, and that too when most of the Spiritual Energy of the Immortal Spirit Stone had been lost.

By just giving a simple method, he allowed Chi Yuan to craft a mid-grade Immortal Artifact that he had never managed to craft before!

With casual guidance, Chi Yuan crafted a mid-grade Immortal Artifact!

If one were to craft completely in accordance with Feng Wuchen’s instructions, wouldn’t it be possible to craft a high-grade Immortal Artifact?

Chi Yuan was extremely shocked and couldn’t even dare to imagine it.

How can the loss of Spiritual Energy from the Immortal Spirit Stone be avoided?

Chi Yuan didn’t know, and no one present knew.

Perhaps only Feng Wuchen knew.

“Who exactly is he? Is there an artifact refiner more terrifying than me on the Mainland? Who could his master be? Could it be one of those mysterious races?” Chi Yuan was filled with curiosity about Feng Wuchen.

Chi Yuan couldn’t believe that Feng Wuchen, at such a young age, achieved such terrifying artifact crafting accomplishments on his own; there must be a terrifying master behind him.

Overcome with shock and curiosity, Chi Yuan waved his hand, and as the Refinement Furnace opened, a terrifying aura swept out like a storm toward all directions, a brilliant light shot straight into the sky, shaking the void, the intense brightness forced everyone to close their eyes.

The appearance of the Immortal Artifact was a grand spectacle that could be called earth-shattering.

After a while, as the blinding light gradually faded, a huge axe emitting radiant golden light hovered above the Refinement Furnace, its terrifying aura leaving people in horror.

Mid-grade Immortal Artifact!

At the sight of the giant axe, everyone in the audience was overwhelmed with excitement, and the disciples of the Immortal Tool Pavilion cheered frantically as if proclaiming their victory.

“You brat! See for yourself! Our Pavilion Master can now craft mid-grade Immortal Artifacts! Your nonsense just now was an insult to our Pavilion Master!”

“You brat! You insulted the Pavilion Master, and even if you can control the toxic flames, you won’t leave here alive today!”

“People without real talent just spout nonsense, thinking they’re some big shot.”

In the eyes of the Immortal Tool Pavilion’s disciples, Feng Wuchen pointing out Chi Yuan’s mistakes made it seem like he considered himself an expert and a big deal, completely disregarding Chi Yuan. Now that Chi Yuan had successfully crafted an Immortal Artifact, it was undoubtedly a hard slap in Feng Wuchen’s face.

“Shut up!” The shocked Chi Yuan suddenly roared at the disciples of the Immortal Tool Pavilion; his terrifying momentum scared the disciples into sheer terror and soul-shattering fear.

The utterly horrified disciples of the Immortal Tool Pavilion were completely dumbfounded and had no idea what was happening.

“Pavilion… Pavilion Master, what has happened? Why are you so angry?”

“Was there a problem with crafting the mid-grade Immortal Artifact?”

“What’s wrong with Dad? This is a mid-grade Immortal Artifact, after all!”

The disciples of the Immortal Tool Pavilion, as well as Chi Kong, were completely baffled, wearing faces of innocence.

Not just them, but even the Zhang family members didn’t understand why Chi Yuan was so angry.

The whole place fell silent, the fearful gazes of everyone fixed on Chi Yuan.

“Teacher, what’s wrong?” Zhang Junlan asked in a low voice, his expression filled with worry and tension.

No one knew what kind of terrifying scene might ensue with Chi Yuan’s fury.

Feng Wuchen smiled faintly, offering no answer.

Moments later, Chi Yuan slowly stepped forward, not even glancing at the powerful Immortal Artifact he had crafted. His gaze fixed on Feng Wuchen, he cupped his fist and said, “Please, great one, do not hesitate to enlighten me.”
