I forged swords at Lingjian Mountain.

Perhaps it's because the forging of the [Stone Tomb] is much easier than that of the [Azure Pattern Sword].

Therefore, the two enhancement branches that appear below the [Stone Tomb] consume significantly less experience points than the [Azure Pattern Sword].

Even without the "Encyclopedia Upgrade Experience Points -1%" tag, you only need 10 experience points to unlock one of the branches.

"10 experience points are not much for me; I just need to forge a few more [Azure Pattern Swords]."

Lin Kong felt that he could choose one of these two branches.

He prefers the second option.

The [Heart-Gazing Sword Tomb] allows one to view the aptitude and comprehension of Linjian Sect disciples.

Currently, Nie Shuang and the other two have all reached 100% loyalty to Lin Jian Sect, and there's no point in increasing it further.

Given the current situation of Linjian Sect, they are definitely not in a hurry to recruit new disciples in the short term.

The [Return to the Heart Sword Tomb] which increases loyalty is meaningless.

If you visit the "Guanxin Sword Tomb," you can check the aptitude and comprehension of Nie Shuang and the other two.

Only by gaining a better understanding of their aptitude and comprehension can Lin Kong provide targeted training.

Thinking about this...

He decisively went to the sword-making workshop and quickly forged five [Azure Pattern Swords].

He wasn't worried about too many of the [Azure Pattern Swords] he forged being discovered.

【Tiangong Wanxiang】is a divine artifact.

It has the function of storing materials and weapons.

It's like a backpack in a game.

Lin Kong put all the forged [Azure Pattern Swords] directly into his backpack.

You can take it out when needed.

During the forging of the Azure Pattern Sword, Lin Kong further confirmed that, as he had previously thought, with the increase in his Growth Value, the time it took him to forge the Azure Pattern Sword had been reduced from 30 seconds to 16 seconds.

It reduced the time by almost half!

"From this perspective..."

"If my [Growth Value] were to increase further, perhaps I could forge the [Azure Pattern Sword] as instantly as I forged the Stone Tomb!"

Lin Kongxin was thrilled.

As your experience points reach 10.

He decisively began unlocking the [Heart-Gazing Sword Tomb].

Swish!

The moment the illustrations are illuminated.

The specific forging method of the [Mind-Observing Sword Tomb] immediately came to Lin Kong's mind.

He discovered.

The forging of the [Guanxin Sword Tomb] required strengthening and processing based on the previous [Stone Tomb].

At the same time, the materials used to forge the [Guanxin Sword Tomb] are no longer conventional materials.

Instead, a sword is needed as the forging material!

And it must be a sword that you forged yourself.

"Do we need three swords as materials?"

Lin Kong decisively took out three [Azure Pattern Swords].

These three Azure Pattern Swords are all Azure Pattern Swords with the [Durability] bonus.

when!

Lin Kong punched him.

The three sturdy [Azure Pattern Swords] merged directly into the stone tomb, displaying a countdown—

20 seconds.

Lin Kong waited.

When the time comes.

Swish!

A flash of white light, and the tomb in front of them underwent a tremendous change.

The entire tomb was noticeably larger and more exquisite than before. The tombstone in front had been transformed into the shape of a sword, resembling a huge, vertically inserted blue-patterned sword, exuding a magnificent and imposing aura.

Especially compared to the nearby brick and tile houses, this sword tomb stands out as exceptionally precious.

At the same time, this sword tomb also possesses the sturdiness effect of the [Azure Pattern Sword], becoming indestructible!

"Next, I just need to wait for Nie Shuang and the others to come and pay their respects, and then I will be able to see their specific aptitude and comprehension."

Lin Kong has high expectations for this.

……

Early the next morning.

Nie Shuang and the other two gathered together.

"Do you really think that our eldest brother has found an immortal and learned immortal techniques all these years?"

Lin Huiyue gestured in the sign language with a serious expression.

They still don't understand why the Azure Pattern Sword forged by Lin Kong is better than the one forged by their master.

"I don't believe there are really immortals in this world..."

Nie Shuang shook her head. "Senior Brother has always had a good talent for sword forging. Perhaps he has had some opportunities outside in recent years and learned more advanced sword forging techniques. Even if he has forged a better [Azure Pattern Sword] now, it does not mean that it is a celestial technique."

Lin Huiyue and Wang Tiancong nodded slightly.

I think what the second senior brother said makes sense.

From a young age, their master taught them to be down-to-earth and not to fantasize about things that are unrealistic and illusory.

They didn't really believe in the existence of immortals.

The three were chatting.

Suddenly, Lin Kong was seen coming from a distance.

"Father's grave is finished. Come with me to pay our respects."

All three of them were taken aback.

In just one night, the master's tomb was actually built?

That's way too fast.

Nie Shuang frowned slightly.

Subconsciously, I felt that the tomb Lin Kong built in such a short time must be very crude.

This made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Although they are not able to build a magnificent tomb for their master with their current financial situation, they still need to make sure it is well-organized and dignified.

It's only been such a short time...

It's hard not to suspect that Lin Kong was just giving a perfunctory answer.

However, when they arrived at the backyard and saw the magnificent sword tomb before them, they were all dumbfounded.

Wang Tiancong kept patting his face.

I wonder if I'm dreaming.

He had never seen such a unique tomb.

Especially the sword-shaped tombstone that stands upside down, it is exactly like a huge [Azure Pattern Sword].

"Master was an expert in forging the Azure Pattern Sword. It could be said that the Azure Pattern Sword was a symbol of Master's life, which is why the eldest brother specially forged a giant Azure Pattern Sword as Master's tombstone!!"

All three of them were deeply shaken.

The eldest brother's dedication moved them deeply.

If one did not have extremely deep feelings for their master, it would be impossible to forge such a unique sword tomb.

While shocked, Nie Shuang felt ashamed of her previous thoughts that Lin Kong's time was too short and that he had been perfunctory.

Given how much the eldest brother values ​​his master, how could he possibly be perfunctory?

But he just couldn't understand it.

In just one night, Lin Kong actually managed to create such a magnificent and unique sword tomb!

A sword tomb of this size...

Let alone Lin Kong being alone.

Even experts who specialize in building tombs cannot complete a project in just one or two days.

This moment.

The thought that Lin Kong had learned immortal techniques resurfaced in the minds of the three of them once again.

After all, sword forging and construction...

They are two completely different skills.

Even if Lin Kong had a good talent for sword forging and had learned better sword forging techniques outside over the years, it was impossible for him to build a sword tomb of such a scale so quickly.

Besides the legendary immortals' wondrous magic.

They simply couldn't think of any other explanation.

Even Nie Shuang, who had never believed in the existence of immortals, felt a wavering in her heart at this moment.

[Nie Shuang's favorability +5, Sect Leader's loyalty +5]

[Lin Huiyue's favorability +5, Sect Leader's loyalty +5]

[Wang Tiancong's favorability +5, Sect Leader's loyalty +5]

……

Lin Kong looked at the message that popped up in his field of vision.

The three people's favorability towards me has all reached 60+, and it has changed from "friendly" to "close".

Their loyalty level reached 90+.

I believe they are absolutely convinced of their current position as the leader of the Linjian Sect.

"Now we'll see how good their aptitude and comprehension are."

Lin Kong led the three of them to the sword tomb ahead to pay their respects.
