Only after becoming emperor did he realize he was in a fantasy world of immortal cultivation.

After returning to his residence from the market, Lin Yuan went to the weapon-refining room to refine Gong Wujue's congratulatory gift.

As he had said that day, he had learned the art of crafting from Master Yu.

From "The True Secrets of Supreme Refining Weapons".

However, the content is somewhat later in the story, and Master Yu has not yet explained it; it was something Lin Yuan figured out on his own in his spare time.

When Gong Yi mentioned asking him to refine magical artifacts that day, a thought flashed through his mind, and he immediately thought of using this artifact-refining technique to get close to Gong Wujue.

Based on what Zhou Wanwan said last time, she already had strong doubts that the Rejuvenation Pearl was still with Gong Wujue.

He took this opportunity to give Zhou Wanwan a confirmation of her suspicions after the banquet.

Thus, this matter can be concluded.

Of course, his words alone are insufficient to secure his safe exit.

Zhou Wanwan and Gongsun Yan's efforts have come to nothing. Even if they dare not take his life directly, they certainly will not let him go easily.

Sitting idly by and waiting for death is not his style.

Therefore...

The purpose of crafting Gong Wujue's congratulatory gift for Gong Yi was not only to get closer to Gong Wujue so that he would have an excuse to reply to Zhou Wanwan and Gongsun Yan, but also to pave the way for him to become a weapon refiner of the Gong Clan.

The weapon refiners of the Gong Clan are different from the guards; they are formal disciples of the Gong Clan.

With this identity, Zhou Wanwan and her companion had an extra layer of concerns.

Their concerns, in his view, were a chance of success.

Lin Yuan gazed at the ghostly flames at the bottom of the furnace, thinking that becoming a weapon refiner for the Gong Clan was impossible given his current status and reputation.

However, if the magical artifact he crafted is accepted by Gong Wujue as a congratulatory gift, that would be a great stroke of luck.

If he uses it well, it's entirely possible for him to ride the wave of success.

After thinking it over, Lin Yuan slowly raised his hands and began to cast a weapon-refining spell on the furnace.

In the following days, whenever Lin Yuan had free time, he would go straight to the weapon-refining room and focus on refining weapons.

With three different forms, it's no wonder that these are not magical artifacts that are easy to forge.

Fortunately, Lin Yuan is now highly skilled in both weapon crafting techniques and theoretical knowledge.

Although some problems were encountered along the way, they were all resolved in the end.

By this time, the vessel was complete.

Lin Yuan gazed at the magical artifact floating above the refining furnace, a slight smile playing on his lips.

......

Wujue Hall

"I'm not playing anymore, I'm not playing anymore." Gong Wujue threw the black pieces in his hand into the chess box, looked at Gong Wuchen opposite him, and said with a troubled expression, "Brother, why can't I beat you no matter how I play?"

Upon hearing this, Gong Yi, who was watching the game from the sidelines, looked up and said, "With your chess skills, where you always lose by thirty pieces when Brother Wuchen gives you a three-piece handicap, you still think you can beat Brother Wuchen?"

"Don't even think about it in your next life."

Gong Wujue laughed angrily: "Gong Yi, don't forget who just lost thirty coins to me."

Gong Yi chuckled twice, "So what if it's him?"

"Alright, playing chess is just for self-cultivation, there's no need to take skill levels too seriously." Gong Wuchen said, waving his sleeve. Purple spiritual light covered the entire chessboard, and after a moment, all the chess pieces fell into the chess jar.

The two exchanged a glance, then turned their heads away, their silence speaking volumes.

But the silence did not last long.

Thinking that tomorrow was the day Gong Yi would be hosting a celebratory banquet for him, Gong Wujue casually asked, "Gong Yi, tell me, what kind of gift have you prepared for me this time?"

"Interesting." Gong Yi picked out a few words from what Lin Yuan had said to him last time and replied simply.

Gong Wujue immediately became interested. "Oh? Interesting?"

"What's so interesting about it?"

Gong Yi was about to repeat Lin Yuan's original words, but then he thought that no matter how much he said now, it would not be as good as the magic weapon that Lin Yuan finally forged.

"You will know tomorrow."

Gong Wujue immediately lost interest. "I think you're just bragging."
