I saved the entire sect by playing idly by letting things fall apart.

Neither of them agreed nor refused, seemingly somewhat tempted.

"What nonsense is this?" The elder of Chengfeng Sect looked left and right. Seeing his two beloved disciples had fallen into depravity, he cried out in anguish and tried to hang up the jade slip to tell Ye Qiao not to interfere with his disciples.

Xie Chuxue reached out to stop them, looking quite interested: "Let them try. Didn't you say you wanted to see their teamwork? I remember Duan Hengdao and Ye Qiao worked together quite well."

Moreover, judging from Ye Qiao's command and the willingness of his protégés to cooperate, the results were quite good.

If it were any other close disciple, they would have started arguing at this point.

"Xie Chuxue, it's one thing for you to indulge Ye Qiao's mischief, but that's a spiritual artifact!" He growled, trying to make the people from Changming Sect understand that this wasn't just any ordinary magic weapon, it was a spiritual artifact!

"A magical artifact? What a coincidence!" Xie Chuxue's eyes sparkled, and she clasped her hands together, seemingly unable to understand human speech. "Perfect timing, our Xiao Qiao hasn't modified a magical artifact yet! Elder Sun, you're so clever, I'll have her try it right away."

Elder Sun of Chengfeng Sect: "..." Are you fucking crazy?

It's true that two spiritual artifacts with the same attributes have an absolute attraction to each other. Duan Hengdao couldn't help but swallow hard. "How do you want to modify it? I have no experience in this area. Why don't you let the elders do it?" Modifying a spiritual artifact in front of so many people is no joke. He didn't have Ye Qiao's courage, nor was he confident that he could do it perfectly.

The elders who were mentioned: "..." Bullshit, they talk like they have a lot of experience. They've lived to be this old and they wouldn't dare to dismantle a spiritual artifact, the spirit inside would tear them apart.

"Do you think the Dragon Ball and the Spirit Weapon are good?" Shen Ziwei pursed her lips, trying to stop her from having such a shocking idea. "You're not a fire spirit root cultivator, so even the flames in the South China Sea won't ignite."

How do you forge weapons? Do you forge them with your head?

Ye Qiao waved her hand. She didn't have a lighter, but KFC did. If the other party's rebirth went smoothly, she could borrow one. "You just need to tell me what to do."

She seemed quite confident. Shen Ziwei had seen the strange blueprints in her hand before. He pursed his lips. "Your idea is to make changes to the two magical artifacts?"

Ye Qiao nodded with a smile. She had dealt with too many artisans and knew what they were interested in.

"I'll give you the blueprints once it's finished."

The two exchanged a glance and, sure enough, relented, "We'll try our best."

"I'd like to try too." Another disciple of Chengfeng Sect rarely raised his hand. The young man had a quiet appearance and looked somewhat shy.

Everyone present unanimously cast the same look at Fang Zhiyao as if he were a lunatic. Most of the insidious magical artifacts of the Chengfeng Sect were made by this disciple.

But she's naturally quiet and reserved. Chu Xingzhi rubbed his arms with a slight chill and said irritably, "You guys are just going to follow her example!!" Sooner or later you'll all be corrupted.

Shen Ziwei and Duan Hengdao were one thing, as both had worked with Ye Qiao and possessed a strange confidence in her. He hadn't expected that another weapon cultivator, who refused to associate with Ye Qiao, would also join in.

Fang Zhiyao wasn't particularly interested in Ye Qiao's simple blueprints before; what really interested him was dismantling spirit artifacts.

That's a magical artifact.

Fang Zhiyao ignored Chu Xingzhi and continued talking to Ye Qiao, asking him if he could join them.

Fang Zhiyao is a socially anxious person.

They absolutely avoided Chu Xingzhi, whose personality was such that he could chatter even with a dog.

Ye Qiao successfully recruited three disciples, all of whom were weapon cultivators. Long Zhu, who had been eavesdropping, couldn't hold back any longer. He wanted to escape but couldn't. However, if he didn't run away, he would be destroyed.

The light blue Dragon Ball materialized and screamed, "You can't destroy me!!"

In an instant, the water around them began to ripple, and Ye Qiao was almost knocked to the ground.

"Finally decided to give it up?" She stared at the dragon ball that had taken human form, thinking that it would only appear when she started to inscribe the seal.

Spiritual artifacts that are born with the ability to take shape never show themselves on their own. Whether it's the Moon Arrow or the Tower Spirit, they are all incredibly difficult to deal with.

--nonsense.

Are you just waiting to be torn down by her if you don't come out?

"Release me back to the South China Sea!" Dragon Pearl glared at her hatefully, fearing that the outside world would be flooded in a few moments, and without Dragon Pearl's suppression, the entire cultivation world might be affected.

Ye Qiao: "Even if you put it back, it'll still be stolen." She thought for a moment, "Or perhaps we should ask the Dragon Clan for help?"

"However, I think they're after the Water Clan and the Dragon Balls. If the Dragon Clan gets involved, it'll be a fight to the death. Is that what you want to see?"

Obviously not.

Compared to other spiritual artifacts, Dragon Ball's personality is quite good. Perhaps it's because water-type spiritual artifacts are naturally good-tempered. It dislikes death and injury, and even more so, it dislikes anyone suffering casualties because of it. "Are you a weapon cultivator?"

"I'm not a weapon cultivator." She paused, trying to make her expression appear sincere. "But don't be nervous, I have extensive experience in alchemy. I definitely won't ruin you."

"???"

Dragon Ball panicked even more.

Damn it, you alchemist have the nerve to say you want to do this?

Since Longzhu didn't refuse, it was tantamount to acquiescing. Ye Qiao immediately stopped delaying and entered into a discussion with the other three weapon cultivators.

Duan Hengdao was the first to speak: "You call this water-based magical artifact a map?"

Fine, they don't understand, but Ye Qiao's naming skills have always been amazing. Let her name it however she wants, since the magical artifact is hers anyway.

Shen Ziwei's voice was slightly lower, "How do you want to design this map and the Dragon Ball?"

"My opinion is that we should not harm the two magical artifacts and should take a more gentle approach."

"Inscribe a spell seal, change the original spell seal, and let the two spiritual artifacts merge."

When it came to inscribing spell marks, Shen Ziwei cautiously suggested, "Why don't you practice with something else first?"

He was really afraid that she might accidentally destroy the Dragon Ball; they were allies, not enemies.

Moreover, even if Ye Qiao is a genius, she couldn't possibly have succeeded in refining pills on her first try.

Ye Qiao nodded, accepting his suggestion. She then asked, "Are there any curse seals with strong defensive capabilities?"

Duan Hengdao rummaged through the books of the Chengfeng Sect, "Yes, yes, yes, I'll find them for you."

"Aside from engraving the curse seal," Fang Zhiyao said, "perhaps we could consider tearing up this map and fusing it in? As long as the Dragon Ball maintains its absolute consciousness, and we're careful not to damage the original abilities of the artifact, with the two combined, one could cover the South China Sea, and the other could control everything around it that we could utilize. Controlling the South China Sea wouldn't be out of the question then."

"If we succeed, we will be the geniuses of the weapon-making world." We will even be considered the leaders.

The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

"That's too cruel." Shen Ziwei rejected the idea. Sometimes, this fourth junior brother, who seemed shy, could be quite crazy when it came to weapon crafting. He said, "Both are spiritual weapons, and they complement each other. It's not appropriate to harm either of them."

Achieving the fusion of the two without damaging or disrupting the spiritual artifact's functions involves a blind spot for the three artifact cultivators.

The other two were barely normal people and didn't dare to target the spiritual weapon. Only Fang Zhiyao was very interested in it. "Then we can try to fuse two identical materials together first. The reason why the Lovers' Sword has two swords is that the senior weapon cultivators used the same material when forging it."

"The mutual repulsion between spiritual artifacts made of the same material will be much smaller. The inscribed seals must also correspond so that the effect will be better when the two spiritual artifacts are used together."

Both magical artifacts are water-based, and since they are made of the same material, their compatibility will be much greater.

It sounds simple, but you can imagine how much effort the cultivators who create a future spiritual artifact put in.

"It seems the map really likes Dragon Ball, so the repulsion between the two will be less."

Fang Zhiyao's suggestion was rather complicated, and it would take an unknown amount of time to complete, especially since Ye Qiao was in a hurry.

The other laymen couldn't get involved in the discussion among the four, but Ye Qiao was also a layman! How did she manage that?

Several elders of the Chengfeng Sect who were skilled in weapon crafting also fell into deep thought.

"Ye Qiao, if it were you, what would you do?"

Hearing the elder's voice out of the blue, Ye Qiao was taken aback, not expecting the question to be thrown at her.
