In the bottom right corner of Jun Yanzi's computer, the icon of the High-level Artifact Masters Communication Group had been jumping frequently; it jumped several times each second .

[TL Note: In QQ, the icon of a group chat will jump when someone sends a new message . ]

[(Screenshot) How come these engravings can't reach the ideal power level? Where did I go wrong? Is there anyone who has experience in this subject?]

Red Wing Daoist: [The Dragon-Slaying Sword in Jade Dynasty seems to be made of 10,000-year-old Green Crystal; any swords made with Green Crystal are sharper than anything else . I want to find a subst.i.tute with similar power . Do any of you have a good suggestion?]

Gongyi Xiu: [You can't find a subst.i.tute since I've been looking for it as well and failed . Maybe you can try the Mystic Water Chilly Crystal . By increasing its sharp metal essence with the five-element derivative method, you might be able to mimic 70% of its power . ]

Red Wing Daoist: [But it goes against my red flames attribute . ]

Gongyi Xiu: [That's easy . You can use Earth Vein Flame Gold . ]

Red Wing Daoist: [Then, my Seven Tribulation Dragon-Slaying Spell would release red light instead of the original green light; it will feel weird . ]

[How come I can't imitate the flow of the spiritual essence in this part of the Heavenly Mirror? Can any of you explain why?]

[(Screenshot) The auspicious pattern of this part should be a phoenix, right? How come I can't make it right?]

Duan Buyi, [I checked the texts on the Shu Mountain Faction and found that the auspicious bird is the G.o.dly Bird Jiaoming of the South; it looks like a phoenix, but you'll encounter problems if you engrave a phoenix on it . ]

[There's such a bird?]

[How come I've never heard of it before?]

Many people sent messages to show their appreciation after seeing this message .

Soon, Jun Yanzi asked in the group, [This spiritual artifact is hard to make . The difficulty lies in the control of the temperature . If we turn the temperature too low, the fire would be extinguished . ]

Duan Yue: [But you still have the water method of making artifacts and the steaming method of getting essence, right?]

Jun Yangzi: [What's that? I've never heard of it before (Husky's puzzled face) . ]

Duan Yue: [Don't you have these artifact-making methods over there? ]

Jun Yangzi: [You have these good methods? Can you tell me about it? ?]

[Wait a second . ] Duan Yue glanced at his communication jade . [Some new artifact masters arrived, and I must make some arrangement for them . ]

Jun Yangzi, [You're all together ?]

The icon of the artifact masters group chat kept jumping all the time, and dozens of messages flooded the screen in a short moment .

A few days later in the artifact masters group chat .

Duan Yue: [The artifact masters of Wuwei Daoist Alliance are awesome ! With the information about auspicious creatures that you guys provided, we've successfully finished researching several of them . By the way, your Luotian Fire Refinery is interesting, and it's about time for us to try making a prototype of the Heavenly Mirror . ]

Duan Buyi: “Your water refinery method is also great, and it helped us solve the problem that we encountered earlier . It seems that we can begin on the first step of the mimicking project . ]

Meanwhile, in the air above the sea outside Half City .

“Faction Master w.a.n.g, do you think that you can defeat me just because you gained the upper-hand yesterday?!” Tianxu Daoist raised his head and laughed smugly, “I thought level 10 was the highest level of the Yimu True Flame, but now I know how wrong I was! Now, I've understood the essence of level 11 of the True Flame . After some time of practice, I will surpa.s.s all my predecessors! Today, I'll show you the power of the new Yimu True Flame!”

“Yang Flame! Go!” An orange-red flame shot out from his hand like a mini sun!

The moment that the flame was shot out, the whole s.p.a.ce above the sea turned as hot as a huge stove!

w.a.n.g Lingxiao yelled in a weird tone, “What's this d.a.m.n thing?!”

“Hahaha! Are you afraid?”

“You think I'm afraid?” Spiritual light lit up in w.a.n.g Lingxiao's hand . “Today, I'll show you the true power of Heavenly Light!”

In the s.p.a.ce above the sea outside Half City, flames shot up into the sky on the left while lightning bolts rolled on the right . Under the flas.h.i.+ng sword energies and the cras.h.i.+ng lightning, the ocean waves surged up, threatening to swallow the sky and the earth! It looked as if the sky would collapse at any moment now .

Meanwhile, all the cultivators who were entering or leaving Half City looked up at the sky as if they had seen a ghost; they keep a good distance from this area, afraid this fierce battle would hurt them .

“Junior Sister Liu, shall we have a sword control technique compet.i.tion?” Mo Xian said proudly . She had recently mastered flying on swords and felt extremely good about herself . Right now, she was proudly standing on a black immortal sword in the air before the shop .

“Okay . ”

Suddenly, Liu Ningyun's expression changed .

“Junior Sister, what's wrong?” Surprised, Mo Xian touched her own communication jade at her belt, and her expression changed as well .

“Senior Sister, you got the message as well?” Liu Ningyun asked grimly .

Mo Xian said with a nod, “Yeah . Something happened in the faction . We must return now!”

“What happened?!” Yue Yan asked in a low voice, “Everything was fine yesterday . How come we have an emergency today?”

“How should I know?” Mo Xian frowned . “But it's an urgent summon; it wouldn't be issued if there isn't a crisis . ”

– In the Forbidden Place in the black mountain of the Nanhua Faction –

A shrilling roar came from the Forbidden Place in the black mountain . It sounded like a booming thunder or the roar of a horrifying demon beast from ancient times . This roar shattered all the stone tablets in the black mountain and shook the mountains all over the Nanhua Faction as if an earthquake were happening!

“What's happening?!”

“What happened?!”

The disciples of the Nanhua Faction looked terrified, and the elders who stayed in the faction looked ashen-faced . “Forbidden Place! It came from the Forbidden Place!?”

“Impossible!” After all, the elder guarding the Forbidden Place had a cultivation level as high as that of the Faction Master . “Isn't that elder guarding the Forbidden Place?”

“Was the Forbidden Place broken into?!”

With several furious roars, a few figures flew to the Forbidden Place at the black mountain where thick dark-red clouds surged up in the sky, and violent winds howled, sending sand and rocks flying .

The entire Forbidden Place at the black mountain was engulfed by demonic clouds!

“A demon is coming out! These are the signs that the demon is coming out!” A white-haired elder pointed at the sky, looking terrified!

“Where's the First Elder? Isn't she guarding this place?” A few elders broke through the thick clouds and went into the Forbidden Place to investigate .

“Are you looking for me, Junior Brothers?” A white-haired woman looking to be somehow in her twenties sat on the stone cliff, looking at them with interest .

Red clouds swept up, and the elders vanished while screaming as if they had never existed in this world .

“It seems like those little guys of Feng Family have finished their work . Now, I only need to go to two places to get back my flesh and bones . ” In the thick clouds, it seemed like a pair of evil eyes stared at the sky . “Even you guys couldn't block one strike from me; I'll see how your disciples and grand disciples will fight me!”
