I Have A Cultivation World - Chapter 567
Chapter 567: Chapter 375 Taiyi Wuyanluo_1
After returning from the Divine Tree Secret Realm, Chen Mobai was handling student council affairs while taking exams for his core and elective courses.
His good friend, Ming Yuhua, also returned two days earlier.
After the exams, Ming Yuhua immediately gathered everyone from the Metaphysical Class for a drinking party.
“Old Ming, where did you go to refine your Magic Artifacts this time? We haven’t heard your bragging for a whole year.”
Wang Xingyu, who had just achieved Foundation Establishment, also attended this party. He curiously asked Ming Yuhua, knowing well his friend’s boastful and ostentatious character.
“I can’t tell, I signed a non-disclosure agreement.”
Ming Yuhua wore a vexed expression, seemingly not wanting to recall his experience of following his tutor this time.
When everyone heard the words “non-disclosure agreement”, they roughly understood what was going on and all tactfully changed the subject.
“Brother, are you free recently? I managed to grab some Clear Wind Evil from the Celestial Gate website a few days ago. I’m thinking of refining it into the ‘Red Misty Cloud Silk’ to enhance the power of this Magic Artifact.”
After the party, Chen Mobai, Ming Yuhua, and Yunyang Bing gathered for another round in their small circle.
“Clear Wind Evil? Old Chen, you’re lucky, you actually managed to get this item. Is it Rank-1 or Rank-2?”
Upon hearing this, Ming Yuhua’s eyes lit up.
Clear Wind Evil is the most common type of Evil Qi in the Celestial Gate, formed when Spiritual Energy blows through the forest and mixes with the wood element. It is a type of Earth Evil Qi.
Usually at places rich in forest vegetation, the Celestial Gate sets up formations to cultivate Clear Wind Evil.
However, since it’s also Earth Evil Qi, the demand always overshoots the supply despite the price being controlled by the Celestial Gate. It’s always snapped up once it goes on sale.
“Just average luck, I only managed to grab Rank-1.”
Chen Mobai originally obtained Earth Evil Qi from Rolling Thunder Mountain by chance. Among them, he could refine the Rank-2 ones into Five Elements Sword Sha, but he intended to refine the remaining Rank-1 Clear Wind Evil and Peach Blossom Evil into Magic Artifacts to enhance their power.
Among these, as Clear Wind Evil was extensively circulated in the Celestial Gate, it could be brought out openly.
Peach Blossom Evil is a type of miasma that’s born only in peach blossom groves. Although there are channels to artificially synthesize it within the Celestial Gate, as its use is narrow, basically no one cultivates it actively. It had not been traded in the market for several years, hence Chen Mobai did not bring it out.
“This is easy, but I have to return home this year, so it might have to wait till the start of school next year.”
Ming Yuhua confidently patted his chest, saying it was a small matter. He had already passed the examinations for Rank-2 Artifact Refiner and Treasure Appraiser a few years earlier. This year, after going out for training with the major troops of the Refining Implement Department, he had even more confidence to pass the assessment for Rank-3 Artifact Refiner.
However, since the ‘Red Misty Cloud Silk’ is also a Rank-2 Magic Artifact, re-refining it to upgrade it is more troublesome than creating a new one, hence there was need to make use of various equipment from the Taoist Institute’s Artifact-refining Department. Ming Yuhua’s family did not have these facilities.
“Thanks, brother.”
Chen Mobai did not say much more and raised his glass in thanks.
“We’re brothers, there’s no need for formalities. Just send me a couple more jars of good wine next year.”
Ming Yuhua was generous and warm-hearted, and had a good relationship with everyone in the Metaphysical Class.
“Fine, next year I’ll send you the best wine from my hometown.”
Chen Mobai thought that next year, there would be a new batch of Rank-2 Spiritual Wine fermenting in Xiao Nanshan, he could then send some of it to Ming Yuhua.
“If I’m not mistaken, the ‘Red Misty Cloud Silk’ should be one part of our Dance Tool Dao Academy’s most comprehensive Rank-4 Magic Artifact ‘Taiyi Wuyanluo’. Our Array Department Head had lectured about this during a public class. It uses ‘Red Mist’, ‘Fresh Wind’, ‘Water Mist’, ‘Jade Dew’, ‘Smoke Stream’, five different states of the Five Element Spiritual Energy to unify and transform the instrument into a formation, combining offense and defense, with unlimited power.”
Yunyang Bing, who was sitting to the side, remembered a lesson that he had taken after the conversation turned towards the ‘Red Misty Cloud Silk’, so he couldn’t help chiming in.
“Given the current situation of the Celestial Gate, it’s basically impossible to refine the complete Taiyi Wuyanluo. At most, it’s just like Old Chen, refining the Clear Wind Evil into it.”
Ming Yuhua knew about this as well, after all, it was one of the signature Magic Artifacts of the Dance Tools Dao Academy. However, as a genius of the Refining Implement Department, he was more familiar with the difficulties involved.
The refinement of Taiyi Wuyanluo doesn’t just involve the five types of Elemental Spiritual Energy’s transition through different states.
For instance, if Chen Mobai’s ‘Red Misty Cloud Silk’ was intermediate-grade Rank-2, by refining in a large amount of Rank-2 Clear Wind Evil, you could upgrade it to a higher-grade Rank-2, or even peak.
But if you want to upgrade it to Rank-3, not only would you need to find Rank-3 spirit material, Water Mist Ice Crystal, but you would also need to upgrade the existing ‘Red Misty Cloud Silk’ and Clear Wind Evil to Rank-3 as well.
That is to say, if you want to refine the complete Taiyi Wuyanluo, you would need at least five types of Rank-4 materials: Red Mist, Fresh Wind, Water Mist, Jade Dew, and Smoke Stream.
Given the resource situation on Earth Origin Star, not even a Nascent Soul cultivator could necessarily gather them all.
However, Dance Tools Dao Academy had many talents. Someone thought of decomposing Taiyi Wuyanluo, making it a formation to emulate the power of a Magic Artifact.
By transforming the five forms of Elemental Spiritual Energy into five Array Flags, the force of the Taiyi Wuyanluo is simulated. The power of this formation depends on the grade of the Array Flags, and it could be made from Rank-1 to Rank-4.
Chen Mobai had only heard of Taiyi Wuyanluo but did not know that it could be disintegrated into a formation.
He quietly remembered Yunyang Bing’s words in his heart.
If he encounters these materials in the Tianhe realm in the future, he can consider gathering them.
