The King's Avatar: The Sword Immortal Returns

Chapter 29 Ye Xiu: Come here, Mo Qian, you stop right there! Pay me back for the materials!
After carefully equipping the final Sword of Death, Mo Qian finally completed the task. Closing the equipment editor, he saw that the level of One Thought God and Demon had risen to 25, and the awakened Light Sword Qi and Dark Sword Qi had achieved a balance – a truly remarkable sight.
Of course, Mo Qian was already used to this scene from countless experiments. In fact, to be precise, the difficulty of creating and upgrading Mo Qian's "One Thought God and Demon" was even more demanding than that of the Thousand Chance Umbrella.

"Look at you, look how consistent Ye Xiu is."

Chen Guo noticed Mo Qian's tense expression while working on his silver weapon and couldn't help but remark on it, since Ye Xiu was also working on his Thousand Chance Umbrella, but Ye Xiu seemed much calmer.
"Oh? Are you sure, boss? Look how much Old Ye's hands are shaking, haha!"

It turned out that Ye Xiu's back was to his boss, Chen Guo, which blocked her view. When Chen Guo finally peeked over, she realized that Ye Xiu's condition wasn't much better than Mo Qian's.
"Uh, you're shaking pretty fast, Ye Xiu."

Chen Guo, looking at Ye Xiu's trembling hands, said somewhat awkwardly, "Sure enough, everyone is just as nervous when upgrading their silver weapons. As for the reason, after you've failed hundreds of times, you'll realize that this level of vigilance is absolutely necessary, you could say it's essential. Otherwise, your silver weapon will be ruined."

Even if you prepare all the materials and load them into the equipment editor without any mistakes, there's still a chance of failure. That's just how it is; it's unavoidable. There's no way around it. It's all about luck. If you're lucky enough, you'll succeed on your first try, but if you're unlucky, you'll have to keep trying. That's one of the reasons why you need to prepare so many materials—to ensure a margin of error. The higher the margin of error, the better.

"fail!"

"Hahahaha! Old Ye, your luck isn't good either—it's not as good as mine. I think you should let me do it. You can even mix up the materials, you're quite something."

Ye Xiu was absolutely certain that he hadn't packed the wrong materials, but seeing Mo Qian so smug made him furious.

"You little rascal, are you trying to wash socks again? Come on, you do it. I have enough material to allow for two mistakes. Let's see if you can succeed. If you do, you won't have to wash any socks this month."

Upon hearing this, Mo Qian's expression instantly turned serious, and he looked at Ye Xiu with a solemn expression:

"Is this true?"

"really!"

"Alright, just watch how I do it!"

Mo Qian's understanding of Ye Xiu's Thousand Chance Umbrella is no less than Ye Xiu's own. After all, he is one of the creators of this weapon. If he doesn't even know this much, he might as well go back to raising pigs.

"The white wolf-hair brush is here, along with the umbrella ribs, and this—"

"Mission accomplished! Confirmed!"

This time, Mo Qian confidently pressed the confirm button. These were materials that Mo Qian had carefully considered before installing, and the result should not disappoint him, probably.

"Huh? What's this material?" Chen Guo curiously flipped to the next page of the materials list and found a rather strange material. Mo Qian and Ye Xiu both looked at it.

"Boss, haven't you been playing Glory for too long? Isn't this the White Wolf's Fang? The material for the spearhead of the Thousand Chance Umbrella? I'm very familiar with this. Wait a minute!"

Mo Qian suddenly remembered that he seemed to have forgotten to add the white wolf's sharp teeth earlier—

Mo Qian and Ye Xiu exchanged a glance and shouted at the same time:

"No, it wasn't added!"

The case is finally solved. This time, it's likely to fail, and we've also found the reason for Ye Xiu's failure last time: it was because he didn't add the material for the spearhead.

"Failure!" As expected, the word "failure" popped up. Ye Xiu vowed that he would never let Mo Qian touch his Thousand Chance Umbrella again; it just seemed too unreliable.

"Mo Qian!!"

"Hey, hey, hey? Old Ye, you should think more positively and calm down. At least we've found where we went wrong, so there's still some benefit to it."

If it weren't for the boss's hint, these two top experts would probably still be completely baffled as to why they failed. Who would have thought that the white wolf's sharp teeth were hidden on the next page of the materials?

Ye Xiu didn't pursue Mo Qian any further. His priority now was to seize this last opportunity.
This time, Ye Xiu had learned his lesson. After equipping all the materials, he specifically called Tang Rou and Chen Guo over to check. Girls are generally more observant than boys, and they might notice things that Ye Xiu missed. After all, girls can even distinguish between shades as difficult as lipstick colors.
"It looks fine, Guoguo. Is there a problem with it?"

"I can't tell either. U should be fine. All the materials have been put in place, and it looks pretty good."

After Chen Guo and Tang Rou found no problem, Ye Xiu finally clicked the confirm button with peace of mind.

With a flash of golden light, a brand-new level 25 Thousand Manifestations Umbrella appeared on Ye Xiu's computer screen. It looked to have many more features than the level 5 version; at least its appearance was much better, with many more additions.

"There are also more career options available."

That's for sure. The Thousand Manifestations Umbrella can't transform into so many professions from the start. It doesn't have that many transformations at the beginning. Only when the Thousand Manifestations Umbrella's level is raised to a certain level can it successfully transform into more states.
