Several years passed swiftly.
On this day.
Inside a cave abode on Crimson Feather Small Mountain.
Ling Pengyun held his breath and focused, using a Refining Furnace to forge a Spirit Treasure.
As time passed, the process finally came to an end.
His luck was good, too: this attempt at artifact refining succeeded.

After all, his previous success rate for forging grade six low-rank Spirit Treasures had been only thirty percent.
There was quite a gap between that and fifty percent.
Moreover, a success rate like this was enough to earn substantial profits.
