Chapter 298: My Path is Difficult, Cherish Each Step
At that moment, Xu Fan sat on the spiritual boat, grinning from ear to ear.
If it were just any ordinary artifact-level spirit ore, he wouldn’t be this thrilled, but the Heart of Earth Mellow Gold was different; it was the most crucial ingredient for crafting the Demon Suppressing Star.
The Heart of Earth Mellow Gold was like the metal needed for a spear—the difficulty of crafting this spear would be halved with it.
“Has my good brother given me a hundredfold return?” Xu Fan said with a smile.
With the Heart of Earth Mellow Gold, his cost to create the Demon Suppressing Star would be cut in half.
Xu Fan began to communicate with his first clone.
“Hey, guess what spirit ore I found!” Xu Fan said excitedly, eager to share his joy.
“Seeing you so excited, it must be a rare spirit ore needed for artifact-level crafting.”
“Silk Crystal, Thunder Spirit Stone, Ten Thousand Year Agarwood, Heart of Earth Mellow Gold…” The first clone casually listed a few, but his expression didn’t change much.
“Heart of Earth Mellow Gold! First Clone, you truly understand me.”
Upon hearing it was Heart of Earth Mellow Gold, the first clone’s face fell; he already anticipated his future tasks.
“Cheer up! With a lot of Heart of Earth Mellow Gold, we can kickstart many of our plans,” Xu Fan said with excitement.
At that moment, the first clone’s expression suddenly turned indifferent, with only rationality remaining in his gaze.
“Boring~” Xu Fan saw the first clone enter the No Self state and then ended the call.
“Ha ha! With the Heart of Earth Mellow Gold, we can craft a large number of Demon Suppressing Stars—at least eighteen of them,” Xu Fan said, his eyes glinting with gold.
By then, there would be eighteen Demon Suppressing Stars guarding the skies above Hidden Spirit Island, and Xu Fan would dare to provoke the Great Ascension Master.
Xu Fan reclined in a lounge chair, using a small fan to cool himself, still dreaming of a bright future.
Half a month later, while wandering in the Volcano Fairy Town’s trading association, Han Feiyu received a message saying that a Spiritual Sword was being delivered and mentioned Wang Xiangchi’s name.
“Three thousand second-tier Five Elements Spiritual Swords, just like that?” Han Feiyu said in disbelief.
“I’m just the delivery person; I don’t know anything else,” said the outer disciple of the Hidden Spirit Sect. The task required him to deliver the Spiritual Swords without revealing any sect information.
Han Feiyu had grabbed the storage bag without even thanking him, and the cultivator disappeared before his eyes.
“I… I haven’t even given the spirit stones!”
Han Feiyu took out the communication artifact.
“Master, that person delivered the Spiritual Sword and just ran away. I haven’t given him the spirit stones,” Han Feiyu messaged Wang Xiangchi.
In no time, he received a reply from Wang Xiangchi.
“He forgot the spirit stones? That’s fine; you don’t need to give them.”
“Such good fortune!” Han Feiyu said with a wry smile. For him, spirit stones were merely a matter of time; when he had time, he would have plenty of spirit stones, and spirit ore as well.
But if he offended such a good supplier and couldn’t buy Spiritual Swords next time, he would be at a huge loss.
Han Feiyu insisted on delivering the spirit stones, but he didn’t receive a response from Wang Xiangchi.
In a closed artifact testing arena in Volcano Fairy Town, Han Feiyu controlled ninety-six Spiritual Swords to perform various sword formations in the arena.
One moment he formed the Hell of Swords, the next moment he transformed into a gentle breeze blending into the sky, and soon after he created sword fish swimming in all directions.
Finally, it transformed into a Giant Sword and slashed at the testing stone in the arena.
‘Bang~~’
Han Feiyu unleashed his most powerful sword formation, leaving a three-inch deep sword mark on the testing stone.
“As expected, the more the Spiritual Swords share the same attribute and material, the stronger the sword formation becomes, and the less spiritual energy it consumes,” Han Feiyu exclaimed with joy.
Previously, his most powerful sword formation could only leave a two-and-a-half-inch mark on the testing stone, while consuming half of his spiritual energy.
“Now that the biggest problem is solved, I can focus on my cultivation and aim to visit the legendary Immortal Realm someday,” Han Feiyu said.
After obtaining the jade gourd, his ambitions shifted from merely surviving in the cultivation world to exploring the Immortal Realm.
He believed that with the help of the jade gourd, ascending to the Immortal Realm would only be a matter of time.
Han Feiyu took out all three thousand second-tier Spiritual Swords, carefully examining each one and using special artifacts to check for any hidden elements within the swords.
Possessing such a precious treasure made him extremely cautious with all the new artifacts and spiritual items he acquired.
After examining all three thousand Spiritual Swords, Han Feiyu nodded in satisfaction.
“Not bad, these are all high-quality Spiritual Swords, each one seems to be crafted from the same mold; the artifact master who made these must be a true expert.”
“From now on, using these Spiritual Swords, I won’t have to worry about their wear and tear,” Han Feiyu said with a smile.
Once he finished all of this, Han Feiyu set his sights on his next goal: to become an alchemist.
He could ask others to craft Spiritual Swords, but for spirit pills that enhance cultivation, he felt his current aptitude would lead to endless demands in the future.
It would be better to craft those spirit pills himself; he had already collected all the spirit herb seeds available in the cultivation world.
Just then, Xu Fan received a large order.
After placing the order, Han Feiyu walked out of the arena with a light step.
Not long after stepping outside, he encountered Ye Xiaoyao, who was waiting for news in Volcano Fairy Town; the two brushed past each other.
“In Volcano Fairy Town, he must be looking for an artifact master to help him craft Spiritual Swords. The path of the sword formation is truly challenging.”
At that moment, for some reason, Ye Xiaoyao felt compelled to help Han Feiyu, the person he felt an instant connection with during their first meeting.
“Wait!” Ye Xiaoyao couldn’t help but call out to Han Feiyu.
“Senior, what is it?” Han Feiyu slightly bowed to show respect.
“Are you a cultivator of the sword formation?” Ye Xiaoyao asked.
“Senior has a good eye; I am just beginning my journey in the sword formation,” Han Feiyu replied.
It didn’t surprise Han Feiyu that Ye Xiaoyao recognized his path of cultivation; cultivators of the same path often had a subtle sense of each other.
“I am also a cultivator of the sword formation. My path is hard; cherish each step you take,” Ye Xiaoyao said with emotion as he handed a storage bag to Han Feiyu.
“This is the sword formation Spiritual Sword I used when I first entered the sword formation path; it is now useless to me. I give it to you, hoping you can restore the glory of our path.”
Looking at the storage bag in his hand, Han Feiyu took a moment to process it, then quickly said, “Senior, it’s not necessary; I have my own sword formation Spiritual Sword. Thank you for your kindness.”
As Han Feiyu spoke, he tried to return the storage bag to Ye Xiaoyao.
“My path is hard; I understand,” Ye Xiaoyao said before quickly disappearing.
“Forget it; I won’t argue with you. Just consider it a good connection.”
“You boy sometimes have such a good heart that I want to find another host,” Old Sword grumbled in Ye Xiaoyao’s mind.
At that moment, Han Feiyu looked at the storage bag in his hand, feeling somewhat at a loss.
“What’s going on today? Everyone is giving me Spiritual Swords for free.”
