Cultivating Immortality Through a Hundred Lifetimes in Both Realms

Forging a magical artifact is no easy task.

Besides collecting the necessary materials for crafting the artifact, one also needs to design a blueprint for the magic weapon.

The entire process took much longer than alchemy.

Jiang Yun did not intend to collect the materials himself and have other weapon refiners craft the weapon.

He chose to directly spend spirit stones to buy a magic weapon.

In the forty-nine wards of Maple Leaf City.

Apart from the fact that the weapon-refining hall of the Zixiao Sect is second to none in weapon refining.

Secondly, there's the Li family of Bailufang and the Wang family of Qingfengfang.

Both of these companies have second-tier high-grade weapon refiners.

The religious artifacts and magical treasures sold in their shop have a good reputation.

"The Li Family's Hundred Refinements Pavilion, the Wang Family's Heavenly Crafts Pavilion."

"Both of these families have expanded their weapon-forging business to other markets."

Jiang Yun walked down this street.

They soon discovered the Li family's weapon-refining shop "Bai Lian Ge" and the Wang family's weapon-refining shop "Tian Gong Ge".

These two shops in Ningyuanfang are, coincidentally, right across from each other.

"Let's go check out the Hundred Refinements Pavilion first."

Jiang Yun thought for a moment and then stepped into the Hundred Refinements Pavilion.

The moment I stepped into the Hundred Refinements Pavilion, there seemed to be fluctuations in the array.

The shopkeeper was in his forties or fifties and had reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining cultivation.

He hurriedly went to greet Jiang Yun as he stepped into the store.

"Junior Li Qiong greets Senior." Li Qiong bowed respectfully and said, "Senior, are you here to forge a weapon?"

Jiang Yun shook her head slightly and observed the surroundings of the shop.

The entire first floor of the pavilion was filled with magical artifacts, but there was no trace of any magical treasures.

"What kinds of second-tier low-grade magic weapons are there? Take me to see them," Jiang Yun said in a deep voice.

"Senior, please follow me."

Upon hearing this, Li Qiong immediately led Jiang Yun to the second-floor pavilion.

Inside the two-story pavilion, numerous low-grade second-tier magic treasures were displayed.

There is a third floor above, where presumably mid-grade and high-grade second-tier magic weapons are for sale.

"These are all second-tier low-grade magic treasures, personally crafted by the weapon refiners of the Li family's Hundred Refinement Pavilion," Li Qiong explained.

Jiang Yun nodded and began selecting items in the second-floor attic.

This shop currently has about thirty low-grade second-tier magic weapons.

Among them, second-tier low-grade flying swords account for half of the total.

"There are indeed quite a few cultivators who choose flying sword magic weapons."

Jiang Yun looked at the flying swords and smiled to himself.

After all, with a flying sword, one can fly on it and control it to fight enemies.

Not only is it incredibly lethal, but it's also incredibly dashing and handsome.

"If I were in the world of cultivation, I might also choose a flying sword."

"However, in this life, there is no need to venture out of the city, and I have cultivated the Crimson Flame Burning Gold Technique."

"It's best to choose a magic weapon that combines offense and defense, or a hidden weapon."

Jiang Yun considered for a moment, then turned to Li Qiong and asked, "That's all?"

"Reporting to Senior," Li Qiong hurriedly replied respectfully, "These are the only second-tier low-grade magic treasures available in Ningyuanfang's Hundred Refinement Pavilion; most are at the Hundred Refinement Pavilion headquarters."

"Senior, you can tell me what kind of magical artifact you want, and I'll get it from headquarters."

Jiang Yun shook his head, "No need, I'll go to the Hundred Refinements Pavilion headquarters to choose when I have time."

After saying that, Jiang Yun turned around and went downstairs, intending to go and take a look at the "Tiangong Pavilion" across the street.

"Respectfully seeing off the senior."

Li Qiong stood behind Jiang Yun, bowed with his hands clasped, and sighed inwardly.

He wouldn't get any benefit if he bought it from headquarters, but there's nothing he can do about it.

Jiang Yun walked out of the Hundred Refinements Pavilion and went directly into the Wang family's Heavenly Crafts Pavilion.

The manager of Tiangong Pavilion was a woman, around fifty years old, who was also at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining cultivation.

"Junior Wang Xiang greets senior."

When Wang Xiang saw Jiang Yun enter the store, she rushed forward to greet him, just like Li Qiong did.

The moment Jiang Yun stepped into the Heavenly Craft Pavilion, he felt the fluctuations of the magic array once again.

However, this magic array posed no threat to him.

It appears to be a warning array.

It seems that both the Hundred Refinements Pavilion and the Heavenly Crafts Pavilion have magic arrays set up.

Different warnings will be given to Qi Refining cultivators and Foundation Establishment cultivators when they enter.

This allows the shopkeeper to distinguish whether a customer is a fellow Daoist or a senior.

"I want a second-tier low-grade magic weapon, ready-made."

Jiang Yun didn't say much, but directly stated his purpose.

"Please move to the second floor, senior."

Wang Xiang gestured for Jiang Yun to go first.

Jiang Yun nodded slightly and went upstairs to select a magical artifact.

Dozens of second-tier low-grade magic treasures were all displayed before his eyes.

So many magical treasures, of immeasurable value, are simply displayed here.

But no one dared to even think of looting.

Because the shops in Maple Leaf City had all paid rent and market security management fees to the Purple Cloud Sect, and were protected by the Purple Cloud Sect, no one dared to rob them openly.

"Like the Hundred Refinements Pavilion, the Heavenly Craft Pavilion mainly produces flying swords as its magical artifacts."

"Huh, what kind of magical artifact is this?"

Jiang Yun observed the area from the second-floor attic.

Among the magical treasures discovered, flying swords were still the most numerous.

However, in a corner, he discovered a magical artifact shaped like a palace lantern.

Upon closer inspection, I discovered that the palace lantern was still burning with intense light.

As you get closer to the palace lanterns, you can clearly feel the temperature around you rising.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Yun was slightly startled.

"Third-tier refining material: Blazing Jade Marrow!"

"But it's only the size of a grain of sand, not even a scrap."

Jiang Yun discovered that the wick of this palace lantern was made of the third-tier treasure, the Fire Jade Marrow.

However, even a grain of chalcedony the size of a grain of sand can continue to glow and generate heat for a hundred years.

"Does this magical artifact have a name? What is its purpose?" Jiang Yun asked.

Wang Xiang quickly stepped forward to explain, "This magic weapon is called the Fire Jade Marrow Palace Lamp. The wick is made of the third-tier treasure, Fire Jade Marrow, making it an excellent magic weapon that combines offense and defense."

"After recognizing the master, the firelight will form a protective shield to resist enemy attacks. If the firelight shines on the enemy, it can restrict the enemy's movement."

Jiang Yun nodded without revealing his expression.

This magical artifact is perfect for him, offering both offensive and defensive capabilities.

Moreover, this magic weapon is definitely not just a second-tier low-grade item.

It can at least be considered a second-tier high-grade magic weapon.

Unfortunately, its wick was made from a single grain of chalcedony the size of a grain of sand.

If it were the size of a finger, its power would change dramatically.

"If enough Fire Jade Essence is found and a weapon refiner is found to replace the lamp wick, this magic weapon will be at least a second-grade high-quality item."

With this in mind, Jiang Yun had already made up his mind.

He asked casually, "How many spirit stones does this item cost?"

"This magic weapon is both offensive and defensive, and it also contains a third-tier material, Fire Jade Marrow, which requires five thousand yuan stones," Wang Xiang replied.

Jiang Yun nodded inwardly, but on the surface, he frowned.

Second-tier low-grade magic treasures start at two thousand yuan stones, with the most expensive not exceeding four thousand.

Five thousand Yuan Stones are enough to buy a mid-grade second-tier flying sword.

With 8,000 yuan stones, one can purchase a second-tier high-grade magic weapon.

In Jiang Yun's opinion, the Fire Jade Palace Lamp was not expensive at five thousand yuan stones.

But Jiang Yun wanted to lower the price, so he frowned.

"If you really want it, senior, we can lower the price to four thousand eight hundred spirit stones," Wang Xiang said immediately when she saw Jiang Yun frown.

"This is the lowest price I can offer. Otherwise, I will need to consult with the Tiangong Pavilion headquarters."
