Chapter 306: Chapter 276 Decaying Bone Demon Poison_1
Yin Yue hesitated for a few seconds, but eventually knelt down obediently, “Apprentice Yin Yue, greets the Master!”
She wasn’t unwilling to become an apprentice; it was just that she had become accustomed to calling him ‘big brother’ these days and felt a little uncomfortable with the change.
Li Cheng looked at Yin Yue and nodded with a smile.
[Apprentice acceptance successful, reward 20 Enlightenment attempts.]
[Current remaining Enlightenment attempts: 25,463.]
Huh? Twenty attempts?
“System, has the reward increased? Or is this apprentice too extraordinary?” Li Cheng inwardly asked.
In the past, the highest apprentice rewards were for Qi Jingtian and Gu Biyue;
Qi Jingtian was a great monstrous beast, and Gu Biyue had the acknowledgment of the Deities, but they only got five attempts.
Now, it had actually rewarded twenty attempts.
[Both reasons are valid.]
The system’s response was simple; it always spoke sparingly to Li Cheng.
Li Cheng did not further inquire; after all, it was good news and he hoped that in the future, he would receive a large number of Enlightenment attempts.
“Thankyou, Brother Li. I will have to trouble you to keep her by your side and teach her well,” Yin Qingshan said, his eyes betraying a sense of reluctance.
He knew that Li Cheng was unlikely to stay in such a small village.
Yin Yue also looked at Yin Qingshan unwillingly; how could she not understand that once her Master left, it would be the day she parted from her grandfather?
“I have to go to the city for business in a few days, Yuer, you should get ready, Yin Qingshan said.
Yin Yue nodded lightly with relief, a smile on her face, but as she turned around, her eyes turned red as she struggled to hold back tears.
“Village Chief, rest assured, I will have her come back often,” Li Cheng said. According to his original plan, he was to teach her some things so that she could stay here to cultivate.
But since Yin Qingshan had already spoken, he would take her with him!
In the past, when he took Yun Tianqiong and the other ten as apprentices, Li Cheng rarely kept them close, always acting as a hands-off shopkeeper. Now that he was in the Divine Realm, he could no longer be so indifferent.
Yin Qingshan caught Li Cheng’s meaning; that is, Li Cheng might not return to Hidden Spirit Village in the future.
He understood; Li Cheng was an Ascender, how could he possibly stay longterm in the tiny Hidden Spirit Village?
Li Cheng went to a corner of the village and took out a tripod to examine his loot.
First were those Divine Corpses, which he had refined into a fist-sized Essence Blood Bead on the way back.
Next were over five hundred various weapons and more than four hundred Storage Rings.
“It seems that storage rings are hard to come by in the Divine Realm; even the Blade Brothers used Storage Rings.”
After checking everything once, Li Cheng took out all sorts of ore materials and Divine Stones that were useful to him, ready to hand the rest, including the storage bags, to Yin Qingshan, keeping only two hundred Storage Rings for himself.
After taking inventory, Li Cheng was left with a pile of Refining Materials, over six thousand Divine Stones, more than five hundred various weapons, and two hundred Storage Rings.
Since he was going to the city in a few days, Li Cheng planned to melt all these Refining Materials and weapons and then refine them into Divine Artifacts, which might become his first earnings.
However, before melting them, Li Cheng intended to extract the core material of the Sky Meteorite Divine Stone contained in the Storage Rings to refine Storage Rings.
Each Storage Ring contained a trace of Sky Meteorite Divine Stone, and the essence extracted from two hundred Storage Rings should be enough to refine storage rings.
Not far away, Yin Qingshan watched in heartache, “One Storage Ring is worth five Divine Stones, which is five hundred pounds of Divine Rice. Brother Li destroyed a thousand Divine Stones in an instant!”
Unconcerned with the situation inside the village, Li Cheng had already selected some suitable materials to begin melting, preparing to refine Storage Rings.
Meanwhile, at the entrance of the village, the villagers who had been eagerly waiting suddenly became excited, “Look, they’re coming back riding the Giant Beast!”
At the edge of their sight, a Giant Beast was galloping, with hundreds of women of various expressions standing on its back, some looking dazed, some crying with joy.
“Sister…”
The man who had asked Li Cheng earlier collapsed on the ground, his eyes filled with the gratitude of a narrow escape; his sister had indeed returned!
“We’ve arrived at Hidden Spirit Village. Which of you are from this village? You may get off now,” came the indifferent voice of Kong Lianqing as the Giant Beast stopped at the entrance.
“Brother!” A woman in her twenties got off the Giant Beast and looked nervously at the young man sitting on the ground.
“No more? Then let’s move on to the next village,” Kong Lianqing said, then suddenly focused her gaze toward the depths of the village.
Li Cheng sat cross-legged, his eyes lightly closed, controlling with his Divine Sense the formation of Storage Rings, as a faint divine authority gradually emanated from the rings.
“Extracting the core material from Storage Rings to refine a Demigod-level Storage Ring, this Refining method…” Kong Lianqing’s eyes showed a trace of surprise.
“Wait, isn’t he an Array Divine Master? Could he also be an Artifact Refining Divine Master?”
A thought struck Kong Lianqing; earlier, when Li Cheng was studying the Divine Artifact Great Blade, she had asked him, but Li Cheng had said it was nothing worth studying. It seemed that Li Cheng truly was an Artifact Refining Divine Master with considerable Refining skills.
For a moment, Kong Lianqing became interested, “I still have matters to attend to. You all possess decent Cultivation, and with Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold destroyed, there won’t be any danger nearby. You can make your way back on your own.”
Li Cheng, not in a hurry to inspect the newly refined Storage Rings, directly melted all the ore materials and over five hundred weapons, ready to continue Artifact Refining.
Before long, a metal sphere over half a meter in diameter had materialized in front of Li Cheng.
Li Cheng fused the fist-sized Divine Blood Essence into it, and after the integration was complete, he controlled it to split into seventy-two parts, thirty-six of which he stretched into Longswords and the other thirty-six into War Sabers.
