I only want to win over the fairy.

Bai Yi casually slapped her hand away and said calmly, "I'm fine, but this imperial weapon is probably hard to repair. However, if we glue it back together and refill it with my power, it might still be usable."

"It's alright." Xiao Jinxuan took out the Human Emperor Sword. The power of this sword is no weaker than that of an imperial weapon. It can be used as a treasure to protect the sect. As long as Bai Yi is still in the sect, it doesn't matter whether there is an imperial weapon or not.

But this guy's aura... was just as she had guessed.

When I first met him in the Primordial Ancient Land, a forbidden zone of life, I guessed that he, like myself, was someone who did not belong to this era or this world. I never expected that it was indeed so.

"But what are you thinking? The Tai Xuan Heavenly Furnace is the most precious treasure of the Xuan Tian Sect. How are you going to explain this to the elders if you destroy it like this? There are clearly better options, so why don't you do as I say?!" Bai Yi's tone became slightly aggressive at this moment. The fact that the other party was not acting according to the plan was really making him a little irritated.

However, as soon as he said those words, he realized the change in his tone. Although he was usually aggressive, he was still very gentle and easy-going with his elders.

However, to his surprise, after he said these words, his cold-faced master became very uneasy, constantly rubbing his fingers, and his tone lost its original indifference, becoming aggrieved:

"I'm...I'm sorry...`(>﹏<)′"

She just felt that the sword belonged to Bai Yi, and destroying it might cause a backlash against Bai Yi. Given Bai Yi's cultivation level, he would definitely die if he were to suffer a backlash from a sword of this quality. However, since her cultivation level was relatively high, she should be able to withstand it without much trouble.

Bai Yi: ? (*゜ー゜*) ?

Who are you?!

Where is my master?!

The woman in front of him, with her aggrieved tone and coy demeanor, was a stark contrast to Bai Yi's master, who always had a stern face. The difference was so great that he wanted to stab this evil Taoist to death with his sword and force her to tell him where she had gone with his master.

If you ask how big the gap really is, he can only say that it's as big as the gap between Chen and Shui Chen.

After a full minute of silence, Bai Yicai continued awkwardly, "Actually... it's already quite good that the result is good. Master, you should go change your clothes first, and then recover from your injuries."

Bai Yi loudly denounces his master as scum of the earth.jpg

"Okay...okay...okay."

Bai Yi's current dominance made Xiao Jinxuan very nervous. She could cut off the neck of an unfamiliar enemy without hesitation, but when she talked to someone she knew, she became so nervous that she couldn't speak clearly.

Finally able to leave this place of trouble, she carefully placed the Emperor's Sword on the ground and then made her escape.

However, due to excessive nervousness, she had only taken two steps when she tripped over her own feet, lost her balance, and fell headfirst to the ground.

Bai Yi: "..."

Hey, this is flat ground! You're at the Dao Integration Realm, how could you do something so embarrassing like slipping and falling on flat ground?

But why do I suddenly find the other person kind of cute?

cough!

Hold fast to your original intentions. This is your master. How can you think about those jockeys who disrespect their ancestors?

After watching Xiao Jinxuan leave, Bai Yi began to communicate with the Human Emperor Sword: "I need to borrow some of your luck to try to repair this imperial weapon."

—Your Majesty, could you please stop treating the human race's fortune as a consumable resource?

"It's just a small loan, don't be stingy. I'll just owe you. I'll repay you double when I seize and plunder the fortune of the ancient demon race."

—This land still faces many crises. If it can help you grow up quickly, a small price is understandable. I hope Your Majesty will not forget your promise. Those who break their promises will be kicked ten thousand times.

"You're so vicious! How can you get kicked for not keeping the agreement? That's too cruel."

The instinct and desire to procreate is one of the most primal instincts and desires of all life, and the human race is no exception. I think that physical threats are more alarming than swearing oaths to the heavens.

—Your Majesty, please remember your promise. After all, you don't want to be kicked by a cow ten thousand times and then be unable to reproduce, do you?

—Of course, I think it would be a very worthwhile deal for Your Majesty to lose worldly desires and devote all your energy to your work.

"Stop reading! Stop reading!" Bai Yi was truly impressed by this Donkey King Sword; it really was the embodiment of a little donkey!

It seems that weapons having consciousness isn't a good thing. In the future, when I make my own weapons, I definitely can't have a weapon spirit that's as nagging as a mother hen!

Let's race against time.

After repairing the imperial weapon, he bound the little fox to himself, so that he could break through to the Foundation Establishment stage and fully open the path to advancement.

Activating the fragments of the Tai Xuan Heavenly Furnace, a dim and lifeless flame surged from the fragments, a sign that its essence had almost completely disappeared. In the past, let alone repairing it, even if these incomplete divine materials that had almost lost all their divine essence were placed in front of him, he would have no way to do anything. But now it's different. He is now in a state of borrowing the power of another version of himself in the river of time, so dealing with some fragments of imperial weapons is a piece of cake.

He traced the Human Emperor Sword with his fingers, and strands of golden fortune flowed into the fragments of the imperial weapon as he guided them. At the same time, Bai Yi's own reincarnation power also flowed in.

However, to repair this imperial weapon, suitable materials are ultimately needed, and Bai Yi, who has no divine materials at hand, only has one material available.

The guy I just killed, leaving only his body.

Besides these, I also found a fragment of another imperial weapon, which I can also use.

As the power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation circulated, this body was instantly decomposed by Bai Yi into the purest imperial origin, which then flowed into the fragments of the imperial weapon, causing these lost divine materials to once again exude divine charm.

Nurturing, activating, forging, reshaping, and then... imbuing it with spirit!

Well, I'll also add my own touch.

Chapter 49 If this is what you desire, then so be it.

On how to forge an imperial weapon.

First, find a large number of fragments of imperial weapons, mix these materials with the corpse of a person who had once advanced to the rank of Great Emperor, and use the power of reincarnation and the power of fortune as an adhesive. Then, melt all these materials together and try to fuse them together. Finally, reshape them according to your memory.

Alright!

A royal weapon has been forged!

This imperial weapon has a 98% plagiarism rate; only 2% is Bai Yi's own creation. And this 2% is reflected in installing the back door and creating a spirit that conforms to his own wishes. So, not a single thing is his own.

"Exactly the same as the original."

Looking at the Tai Xuan Heavenly Furnace in his hand, which was almost identical to the original, Bai Yi couldn't help but nod. As expected of him, he had created an Emperor Weapon so quickly.

Although it was just copying and pasting other people's ideas and content, at least I managed to create something myself.

Just tell me whether I made this imperial weapon or not!

The mold, the essence, and the origin have all been completed. All that's left is to inscribe the "Tai Xuan Immortal Dao Scripture" on it, and the job will be done. At that time, no one in the sect will know that this imperial weapon has already been damaged once.

When Bai Yi finished doing all this, he found that nearly a day and a night had passed, which meant that the power was about to disappear.

If they hurry to find the little fox now, relying on their memory and familiar knowledge, they should be able to create the external spiritual energy conversion device—a Zanpakuto specially made for cultivation—in time, but...

"I think I should just forget about it. When it comes to matters of my own strength, it's best to achieve them personally through my own efforts."

It wasn't that he was resistant to the power of the White Emperor projected from the river of time; it was simply that he felt that the natal equipment he created with this power that didn't belong to him might not be of any benefit to him.

The things made with the power of an emperor are absolutely the best, even perfect, but this perfection is for the White Emperor, not for Bai Yi.

If I use the power of the White Emperor to make the little fox my destined equipment, then for a long time to come, I will be unable to modify or adjust it in any way. This is because what the other party made is too perfect for someone of my low level, which will affect me no matter which path I take, and I will even follow the White Emperor's path in a rigid and conventional way.

The way of man is the way of being human, and the path that those who open up the way of man walk is the way of Heaven!

What Bai Yi seeks is to learn from the White Emperor's knowledge in a way that is helpful to him, and to forge a completely new path from it, rather than following the White Emperor's path in a conventional manner.

But in the very end, let's make use of this power a little bit!

"The Cycle of Reincarnation!"

The power of the cycle of life and death manifested itself, and a large area of ​​wasteland on Tianxuan Peak slowly sunken down to form a circular pool. Then, boiling hot water gushed out from below the pool, turning the area into a hot spring.

The hot springs, nurtured by the life force in the cycle of life and death, can nourish the body and life of those who soak in them, and can also cleanse some hidden injuries in the body. In terms of the standards of hot springs, they are of the highest level.

To prevent the life force within from leaking out, he specially surrounded the area with fences and added a full 108 layers of magic arrays, so that no one could enter without his and Xiao Jinxuan's permission.

It's a pity there's no spirit fish, but it doesn't matter. With a sports car, what more could you want?

【bite!.】

As the notification sound came from his ear, the power within Bai Yi's body began to recede like a tide, and the memories he had not absorbed, read, or digested were instantly forgotten without a trace.

The sudden disappearance of his immense power made him feel as if all the strength in his body had been drained away. He couldn't muster any strength at all and could only watch helplessly as his body fell to the side, unable to move even a single finger.

The aftereffects are really serious.

I estimate that I won't be able to move for a while.

As expected, Bai Yi did not fall onto the hard ground. Instead, he felt a soft and warm touch, especially his head, which felt as if it had hit something super soft.

"Peace of mind."

A familiar yet indifferent voice rang in his ears, and Bai Yi felt a warm breath on his face.

The exhaustion from the dramatic rise and fall of his strength made him want nothing more than to sleep soundly in this warm embrace, but he didn't want to sleep yet.

He had some questions he wanted to ask, and if he didn't ask them now, he probably wouldn't ask them again in the future.

He lay quietly in Xiao Jinxuan's arms, gazing at the distant sun, watching the warm sun gradually shift its trajectory and slowly set.

After an unknown amount of time in this silence, he spoke.

"This is the first time since I met you that I feel so reassured to have someone by my side. It seems you can still be of some use sometimes." Bai Yi joked, but his words revealed a deep weariness.

"..." After changing into clean clothes and releasing Qiu Yuelian, Xiao Jinxuan, who had been silently watching Bai Yi, didn't know how to answer.

"Don't lose because you can't express yourself. No matter how close the feelings and relationship are, it can't last without a response." Bai Yi had wanted to say this for a long time. He had always wanted to try to understand his master who had taken him in, but he had reached out countless times without getting any response, which inevitably made him resentful.

Xiao Jinxuan was stunned by Bai Yi's words. She opened her mouth as if to say something, but said nothing. She just silently tightened her grip on Bai Yi's arms.

"You're not socially awkward, are you?" Bai Yi suddenly found it a bit funny. He thought he was a ruthless person who was taciturn, but it turned out he was a socially awkward person who couldn't even express himself clearly. There is no joke in the world.

You think the other person doesn't care about you, so they're too lazy to teach you anything or talk to you about anything. But then one day you suddenly discover that the other person is a socially anxious person who stutters and gets nervous when talking to people. What kind of situation is this?

"I find it really interesting. If you're truly a socially awkward person, why go through the trouble of taking on apprentices? Can you tell me why?"

Xiao Jinxuan remained silent, but tightened her grip on Bai Yi even more, as if she were struggling with some internal conflict. The force of her grip was so great that Bai Yi's face became slightly distorted.

Just as Bai Yi was about to loudly condemn and question the other party about whether they intended to kill him, the woman, who had been speechless for a long time, finally spoke: "A fellow human..."

"We are...like...you and...like me...not from this...this era...um..."

Summoning her courage, Xiao Jinxuan could only manage to utter these few words, her face growing increasingly pale, and her speech becoming more and more incoherent. In the end, she chose to give up speaking and instead directly transmitted her innermost thoughts to Bai Yi at close range.

"We are the same kind of people, all of us are outcasts who do not belong to this era or this world. This world has no relatives of ours, no friends of ours, and no place for us to belong. No matter how well we try to fit in or how normally we behave, we are still out of place in this world."

"Surrounded by a vast sea of ​​people, yet feeling no warmth whatsoever, this loneliness that comes with being an outsider, this..."

She lowered her eyes, gazing at Bai Yi who was so close to her. She paused, then said nothing more.

"The sunset is truly beautiful." Bai Yi gazed at the rising sun in the distance and smiled. "Do you remember our first meeting? I remember it was such a beautiful sunset back then. Such a beautiful scene has always been around us, yet neither of us was willing to stop and appreciate it. Don't you think that's a pity?"

Xiao Jinxuan: "..."
