With the cannon fodder script in hand, it is easy for the king to change his fate

"Having studied weapon crafting for many years, I know pretty much all the materials that exist in the cultivation world. I've never seen or heard of anything like the one my junior sister brought out before." Mo Wuchen carefully examined a stone. "But I'm certain that this material does have the properties of Cloud Star Stone, and it might even be... better than Cloud Star Stone. We'll only know how much better it is when it's incorporated into a magic weapon."

"However, I have never used Cloud Star Stone to refine a magic weapon. I have seen a magic weapon with Cloud Star Stone added. It was my master's natal magic weapon. It is said that he only added a little bit of Cloud Star Stone, about the size of a fingernail, and it raised its quality to the level of a semi-immortal artifact. If good materials are added later and more Cloud Star Stone is added, it is possible that its quality could be upgraded to an immortal artifact."

"Junior sister, these materials are far too precious." After appraising the materials that Azhen had brought out, Mo Wuchen felt that he couldn't just take them for free. Even if they were his junior sister, as her senior brother, he couldn't take advantage of her.

Azhen said, "It just so happens that I have them, and my senior brother needs them. This is the best arrangement. Besides, I also need to learn weapon crafting, and I'm still missing a lot of materials. I have to ask my senior brother for them. Otherwise, if I go to find them myself, I don't know how long it will take to gather all the materials I need."

"Alright, Junior Sister, just ask me for any materials you need." Mo Wuchen wasn't one to hesitate. He even started rummaging through his storage ring and quickly gave half of all the materials he had, including the rarest ones, to Azhen, being generous and straightforward.

This material can replace or even surpass the Cloud Star Stone, and it's exactly what he lacks. Even if he gave away half of his treasured possessions, he would still feel like he was getting a bargain.

Azhen didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the storage bag that Mo Wuchen gave her.

Actually, what she said wasn't a lie. She needed to prepare defensive magic items for Ling Fang and her cheap master Ji Wujiu, which required a lot of materials.

Many common materials in this world are different from those in other worlds. She can't possibly take every single material from her own warehouse. One or two materials are fine, but most of them are not from this world, which she thinks is not good and might cause trouble in the future.

She will leave this world eventually. Ling Fang and Ji Wujiu are both people of this world, so it's best not to create any potential problems for them.

Therefore, she planned to find all those refining materials in this world.

Actually, she had planned to get it from Mo Wuchen long ago, which was the reason she initially intended to offer this alternative. However, the situation has clearly changed quite a bit now.

“This is called a Star Refining Stone,” Azhen said. “I obtained it by chance during a training trip.”

"So it's called Star Refining Stone." Mo Wuchen memorized the name, played with the Star Refining Stone in his hand, quite fond of it, and even couldn't wait to go into the weapon refining room.

However, he held back, after all, his junior sister was still here, and now that he had the last material, there was no need for him to be so eager.

Azhen, however, saw Mo Wuchen's eagerness and said, "Senior brother, you go ahead with your work. I'll stay here by myself for a while. You don't need to keep me company."

"Okay." Mo Wuchen paused for only a moment before saying "okay," his expression still somewhat embarrassed. He knew perfectly well that his junior sister had seen through his thoughts and didn't want to bother him anymore.

He began to consider his materials. With the materials he had, crafting two sets of defensive and offensive magic weapons should be no problem at all. However, he had never used Star Refining Stones to craft magic weapons before, so he couldn't guarantee what kind of magic weapons he could craft. Even if he had some ideas in mind, he didn't reveal anything beforehand.

Seeing that Mo Wuchen went straight into the weapon-refining room without hesitation, Azhen also went to the weapon-refining room.

Even if she showed great talent in weapon crafting, she still needed to practice regularly to improve. A sudden surge in progress would be too abrupt.

Inside the weapon-refining room, Azhen began to study the weapon intently, and more and more people gathered around to watch.

A whole day passed, and the weapon-refining room remained quiet, but the number of people continued to increase. In fact, some disciples skilled in formations even expanded the space of the weapon-refining room so that more people could see it, all in order to watch Azhen refine weapons.

Later, they weren't even satisfied and actually used a special formation to project the scene outwards, so that every disciple in the sect who had free time was watching. Although Azhen was immersed in refining weapons, this was something she was already skilled at, so she didn't need to focus too much; she was aware of the movements around her.

She didn't hold back at all, showing every step clearly, to the point that the sect disciples were already recording her weapon-refining process using recording stones. Especially those who were already studying weapon refining at the Refining Fire Peak, they were discussing their observations and insights through telepathy as they watched.

Ji Wujiu heard about this and came over to take a look.

Although he wasn't a master weapon refiner, he had some knowledge of the craft and, given his high level of cultivation, could immediately see just how terrifying his junior disciple's talent in weapon refinement was. A brief exchange with the sect's weapon refiner master further confirmed his suspicions. Moreover, the sect's weapon refiner master wasn't interested in talking to him at all; he was completely focused on watching his junior disciple refine weapons.

He smiled, his face full of satisfaction, and didn't stay there for long.

He was relieved to see that his junior disciple was able to immediately immerse himself in weapon crafting, indicating that the impact on his mindset was not significant.

Moreover, his junior disciple's talent for weapon crafting provides him with another avenue for advancement, which puts him at ease.

The most worrying thing now is the eldest disciple; a day has passed, and he is still staying by Lin Ya's side.

He wouldn't object to his disciples finding a Daoist partner; if they were compatible, it would be a wonderful thing.

The fear is that Lin Ya isn't the right person, and the eldest disciple might get too deeply involved, thus affecting his cultivation.

Since it concerned his eldest disciple, he specifically inquired about Lin Ya and, upon learning of her situation over the years, could only shake his head. Lin Ya was indeed very popular within the sect; few, from top to bottom, were dissatisfied with her.

One thing, however, made him frown: she was very close to many talented and handsome male cultivators in the sect, and their interactions were basically the same as those between her and the eldest disciple. Lin Ya hadn't taken her relationships with these male cultivators any further, nor had she shown any interest in them, but he still felt that something was off.

He remained silent once again, recalling Lin Ya's previous harassment of Mo Wuchen.

Lin Ya was much more proactive with Mo Wuchen than with others, making it obvious that she cared a lot about him.

One thing to mention is that his nephew doesn't go out much, otherwise his face would attract countless suitors.

That's why he's worried; his eldest disciple cares too much about Lin Ya.

A day has passed, and it's unknown whether Lin Ya has woken up yet.

Another day passed before Azhen finished refining the weapon.

Looking up and seeing everyone still looking like they wanted more, he smiled and said, "Everyone, this weapon forging session is now over."

"Most of the magical artifacts I've crafted these past two days will be kept at Refining Fire Peak for sale."

Upon hearing this, everyone was somewhat pleased. (End of Chapter)
