Chapter 188: Chapter 187: The Daoist Platform that Set a New Record, Restarting the Artifact Refining Hall

"This Daoist Platform is indeed different from the usual ones..." Zhou Youwei’s beautiful eyes shone brightly as she spoke with slightly parted vermilion lips.

She saw many unique aspects in Ye Xuan’s Daoist Platform.

What appeared to be a Daoist Platform full of cracks somehow gave her a very strange feeling.

The platform she had condensed was a Perfect Daoist Platform.

She felt that her own Perfect Dao Platform seemed inferior to Ye Xuan’s.

This was a weird sensation, but Zhou Youwei had a strong belief in it.

"Of course it’s different!" Zhou Bingyi took over from Zhou Youwei, looking at Ye Xuan with a somewhat pitiful shake of her head, "An ordinary Daoist Platform, no matter how flawed, has its limits. Even with a Daoist Platform full of cracks, having ten cracks is already the extreme."

"Your platform must have set a new record..."

Zhou Bingyi looked at Ye Xuan with a bit of pity, mourning for her brother-in-law in silence.

Because Ye Xuan’s Daoist Platform seemed to be as flawed as it could be.

Thousands upon thousands of cracks.

There’s no such Daoist Platform...

Others are forging the Foundation of Dao.

You must be picking up trash...

"Was there some mistake in your cultivation process?" Jiang Jing’s beautiful brows furrowed in concern.

Ye Xuan shook his head slightly and said, "Don’t worry, it’s all good."

He too was taken aback when he condensed the Primordial Hongmeng Daoist Platform, but he soon came to terms with it.

After all, the Primordial Hongmeng Daoist Platform is not like the ordinary ones; naturally, it doesn’t follow the common path.

"Then try to look on the bright side," Jiang Jing didn’t know how to console him.

Condensing such a flawed Daoist Platform, if word got out, he would certainly become the subject of ridicule.

Originally, she had sensed Ye Xuan’s earth-shattering cultivation movements in her sleep and had hurried over, expecting that Ye Xuan would surely condense a Perfect Daoist Platform, or at the very least, a Flawless one.

Such a commotion couldn’t have been for nothing.

But what Ye Xuan revealed was a Daoist Platform that was even worse than a cracked one, something completely unforeseen.

"I’m quite open-minded about it," Ye Xuan couldn’t help but smile.

Just as he had suspected, by revealing such a Daoist Platform, there was bound to be misunderstanding.

However, this was also good, to avoid attracting too much attention.

Among the crowd, only Zhou Youwei could sense the extraordinariness of Ye Xuan’s Daoist Platform.

Ye Xuan didn’t explain further and retracted the Daoist Platform back into the True Sea within his Elixir Field.

"By the way, the Artifact Refining Hall is reopening tomorrow. Have old man Qiu bring ten Melting Furnaces to the Artifact Refining Hall in the morning," Ye Xuan instructed Jiang Jing.

"Are you really going to reopen it?" Jiang Jing collected her thoughts and asked with a slightly raised eyebrow.

Ye Xuan gave a slight nod and said, "The Hall Master of the Artifact Refining Hall is still around, and that guy’s memory of the Emperor Immortal Sect still lingers from the time of Zhou Yutian."

"What?" Jiang Jing was shocked.

Zhou Yutian was her grandfather.

"That Artifact Refiner Hall Master, he wouldn’t happen to be Elder Xu Jiu, would he?" Jiang Jing’s expression changed.

"Did you ask for his name?" she pressed eagerly.

Ye Xuan shook his head and replied, "That guy seemed a bit crazy, I didn’t talk much with him."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Jing instantly had a headache and glared at Ye Xuan, "If it really is Elder Xu Jiu, you would have to address him as your Great Grandmaster, because he’s Grandfather’s senior brother!"

Zhou Youwei and Zhou Bingyi exchanged glances, both clearly clueless.

They knew nothing about any Elder Xu Jiu, having never heard of him...

"Even if I called him, he probably wouldn’t acknowledge it," Ye Xuan said with a grin.

"No, I must go with Elder Qiu tomorrow," Jiang Jing decided after thinking it over.

"As you wish," Ye Xuan said.

A while later.

Ye Xuan looked up at the three women, his eyelids drooping, and asked nonchalantly, "Do you three plan to watch me sleep, or are you planning to join me?"

Zhou Bingyi retorted, "Hmph, you big scoundrel!"

Jiang Jing scolded, "Ye Xuan, I am your mother-in-law!"

Zhou Youwei touched her forehead and then lead Zhou Bingyi and Jiang Jing out of Ye Xuan’s room, kindly closing the door behind them and saying, "You should rest early."

Once the three women left, Ye Xuan lay down and covered himself with the blanket.

"Time to sleep."

One night passed.

When Ye Xuan woke up, he found his depleted True Qi had fully recovered.

A few of the mottled cracks on the Primordial Hongmeng Daoist Platform had also vanished.

"Not bad, very formidable," Ye Xuan admired.

As expected of the Primordial Hongmeng Daoist Platform, automatically cultivating, simply unbeatable.

He believed it wouldn’t take long before he could start condensing the second Daoist Platform.

Each realm is divided into nine layers.

The minor realms within the Daoist Platform Realm are determined by the number of Daoist Platforms.

The Daoist Platform Realm’s first layer is one Dao Platform.

The Daoist Platform Realm’s ninth layer is nine Dao Platforms.

Early in the morning, Ye Xuan got out of bed and notified Zhou Youwei before he headed to Lie Tian’s Daoist lecture hall.

"Today, the lecture on the Dao begins."

Ye Xuan instructed Zhou Youwei to spread this message.

As the Chief Senior Disciple, it was his duty to explain the Dao for three days each month, to resolve the doubts of his junior brothers and sisters.

Having been the Chief Senior Disciple for over two months, it was time for Ye Xuan to hold his lecture on the Dao.

News of Ye Xuan’s lecture on the Dao.

The three hundred disciples who participated in the exchange meeting the day before responded immediately, being the first to rush to Lie Tian’s Daoist lecture hall.

The other disciples from the Nine Peaks, upon hearing this news, did not respond much.

Ye Xuan was indeed strong, but he was after all only a sixteen-year-old boy. His understanding of cultivation might not even be as good as theirs, so naturally, they did not see the need to attend.

Ye Xuan, on the other hand, did not consider these issues and quietly waited at Lie Tian’s Daoist lecture hall.

Meanwhile...

Jiang Jing informed Qiu Wenhan early in the morning, and the two of them went to the long-abandoned Artifact Refining Hall together.

"Is it really Elder Xu Jiu?"

On the way, Qiu Wenhan felt uneasy and kept asking Jiang Jing.

Even though Jiang Jing had calmed down a lot, she was still somewhat uneasy and nodded, saying, "According to Ye Xuan, it should be Elder Xu Jiu."

"To think that his oldness is still alive..." Qiu Wenhan’s old face was filled with excitement.

"If it’s really him, then restarting the Artifact Refining Hall will be no problem at all!"

"Yes, his oldness was the strongest Artifact Refiner within a hundred thousand li around our Tianqing Mountain Range back in the day," Jiang Jing also sighed with emotion.

Artifact Refining Hall Master Xu Jiu, known as Lord Jiu, became famous more than three thousand years ago.

The Tianqing Mountain Range, spanning a hundred thousand li, knew him well.

Back then, the Emperor Immortal Sect was not as desolate as it is now.

The Sect Master of that generation, Zhou Yutian, was Xu Jiu’s junior brother.

"Eh, is this organized by Ye Xuan?"

When Jiang Jing and Qiu Wenhan arrived at the Artifact Refining Hall, they were both surprised.

They saw that the Artifact Refining Hall was clean and tidy, and the placard was well placed.

At the entrance of the Artifact Refining Hall, there were also two brand new Door Gods on both sides, towering and majestic, with formidable presence!

Is this really the Artifact Refining Hall that has been abandoned for three thousand years?!

"Impossible, it can’t be Ye Xuan. With his personality, he doesn’t have the time to clean like this," Jiang Jing denied, shaking her head.

She knew Ye Xuan’s personality; this was definitely not his work.

"Then..."

Jiang Jing and Qiu Wenhan glanced at each other, both guessing who did all this.

It had to be someone from the Artifact Refining Hall.

And the only person from the Artifact Refining Hall was just one.

Hall Master Xu Jiu, Lord Jiu!

With this in mind, Qiu Wenhan straightened his clothes and with a solemn face, respectfully bowed and said aloud:

"Disciple Qiu Wenhan specially comes to meet Elder Xu Jiu!"

"Junior Jiang Jing, specially comes to meet Elder Xu Jiu," Jiang Jing followed with a bow.

"Come in."

From inside the Artifact Refining Hall, a hoarse voice came out.

Hearing this voice, both of them trembled, feeling overjoyed.

It was really Xu Jiu!

Without hesitation, both quickly entered the Artifact Refining Hall.

Upon entering the hall, they saw eighteen bronze divine puppets lined up on both sides, emitting a strong aura of Earth Qi.

"Eighteen bronze divine puppets..."

At this sight, both their eyes turned red with excitement.

The two regained their composure and focused their gaze on the figure in the main seat.

It was a black-robed, portly old man with a hunched back, but his cloudy eyes were filled with endless authority.

This was the hunchbacked old man Ye Xuan had encountered the previous night.

But today, he was a completely different person from last night.

Not only his attire had changed, but the entire air about him was different!

If yesterday’s Xu Jiu was a crazy old man,

then today’s Xu Jiu was a long-seated Overlord of one territory, his unrestrained authority emanating from him.

"Where’s Mr. Ye Xuan?"

When Xu Jiu saw Qiu Wenhan and Jiang Jing but not Ye Xuan, he couldn’t help but ask.

"Eh?!"

This question stunned both Qiu Wenhan and Jiang Jing.
