Heavenly Jewel Change Qi Fei: Finally My Turn

Heavenly Jewel Change World.

More than three months had passed since he began his apprenticeship under Ye Ruichen.

During this time, Qi Fei had been diligently studying the craft of a Consolidation Master, preparing to design Consolidation Scrolls for the other versions of himself in the future.

His dedication to learning and the depth of his research were enough to make even his teacher, Ye Ruichen, sigh in admiration.

The main reason was that the other versions of Qi Fei were advancing in cultivation at such a ferocious pace that the Heavenly Jewel Change Qi Fei could only dedicate his time to mastering the art of consolidation.

Of course, the Heavenly Jewel Change Qi Fei himself didn't see any issue with this.

Everyone had their own role to play, after all.

As he pondered, Qi Fei used his tools to grind the Heavenly Cores, gemstones, minerals, and other materials beside him into powder one by one.

Usually, he would handle this step by hand.

The power attributes of his eleven jewels were enough to turn Qi Fei into a human pulverizer with ease.

However, since his teacher Ye Ruichen was watching from the sidelines, he had to restrain himself a little.

Once all the materials were pre-processed, Qi Fei set up a crucible and prepared to light a fire to boil the Forming Liquid.

He had learned this step from the Dou Po Qi Fei.

When it came to the fusion of different materials, an alchemist like the Dou Po Qi Fei was the true master.

Therefore, after absorbing the alchemy experience of the Dou Po Qi Fei, the Heavenly Jewel Change Qi Fei had made appropriate adjustments so that it could be applied to the production of Forming Liquid.

Theoretically, it could also be used for alchemy, but alchemy required adjusting formulas based on the different medicinal herbs of each world, and Qi Fei didn't have the energy for that just yet.

His Life Bead appeared in his hands.

Mixing fire attributes with a touch of life and space attributes, he conjured a nimble flame beneath the cauldron.

The liquid already prepared in the crucible began to ripple as the temperature rose.

This substance was the sap of a plant called Earth Mulberry; it was milky white throughout and contained a balanced and gentle Heavenly Power, making it a common base for Forming Liquid.

Just as the Earth Mulberry sap was about to boil, Qi Fei began adding the materials.

First came the powder from the space-attribute and fire-attribute Heavenly Cores.

These two materials were the primary components of this Forming Liquid.

As the two materials fell into the liquid one after another, the contents of the crucible reacted to the power within the powder and immediately began to boil violently.

Qi Fei adjusted the flame unhurriedly, coaxing the two forces to fuse with the liquid more quickly.

Before long, the liquid in the crucible took on the appearance of a yin-yang hot pot, one side silver and the other red.

The two main materials had initially combined with the liquid.

Qi Fei began to add the auxiliary ingredients.

There was the Ice Jade representing power, the fire-attribute ruby, the fangs and sharp claws of a Red Fire Wolf, and Iron Essence—which only forms under special conditions within iron ore veins...

The essence of each material was slowly integrated into the liquid by Qi Fei.

At the same time, the powers of the two main materials were also slowly merging.

Before long, the liquid completely transformed into a red fluid shimmering with a faint silver light.

The Forming Liquid was complete.

Qi Fei put on a show of regulating his breathing for a while, pretending he was recovering his Heavenly Power.

Then, he took out the Consolidation Paper he had specially prepared for this session, ready to begin drawing the Consolidation Scroll.

Consolidation Paper usually required the addition of space-attribute materials and at least a Master-level Heavenly Core (corresponding to a human's seven-jewel cultivation) to support a Consolidation Master's design.

Heavenly Power with space attributes spread from Qi Fei's hands, flowing into the Consolidation Pen and combining with the Forming Liquid he had dipped into.

This Consolidation Pen was a top-tier item prepared for Qi Fei by Ye Ruichen, named Green Bamboo, and it was good enough to last Qi Fei all the way to the God Master level.

Coupled with the weapon spirit from the God Three World, it felt incredibly smooth to use—it was a pure pleasure.

It was precisely because of the help of this pen that Qi Fei had never failed when drawing a Consolidation Scroll.

It was enough to make Ye Ruichen exclaim that it was devilish.

The tip of the pen glided across the pale red Consolidation Paper, the Forming Liquid flowing out smoothly and merging with the paper under the influence of his Heavenly Power, leaving behind intricate patterns.

Soon, the design on the Consolidation Paper began to take shape.

It was a one-handed sword with a sharp blade, a red spine, and a crossguard shaped like a cloud of good fortune.

At the pommel behind the hilt, there was a circular depression—this was the inlay hole Qi Fei had pre-set for this design.

This was a Grandmaster-level Consolidation Scroll.

In reality, relying on his powerful cultivation and the Green Bamboo pen, Qi Fei already possessed the ability to independently create Grandmaster-level Consolidation Scrolls.

It was just that, due to the limitations of the cultivation level he displayed, he had never shown this to his teacher.

Of course, this bit of ability wasn't important; Qi Fei's basic requirement for consolidation was a God-level set, and there wasn't much difference between having early-stage Grandmaster strength or not.

Currently, Qi Fei's focus is on how to design, from scratch, the blueprints for a God-level Consolidation Set consisting of at least nine pieces.

In any case, with three God Masters available between Heavenly Jewel Island and his own teacher, there is absolutely no need to worry about the production of the Consolidation Scrolls.

As long as he manages to create the designs, he can simply have a chat with his teacher later to obtain the physical items.

Right now, Qi Fei is in the middle of drafting a Master-level Consolidation equipment piece of his own design.

As the final stroke landed, the patterns on the Consolidation Paper emitted a crimson glow, and the aura of the Consolidation Paper and the Forming Liquid merged completely, becoming as harmonious as a living entity.

The Consolidation Scroll for the legendary childhood weapon, the Long Rainbow Sword, had been successfully created.

"Beautiful."

Ye Ruichen, who had been watching silently, couldn't help but clap in praise.

"Master, you flatter me."

Qi Fei feigned a look of exhaustion, panting as if his Heavenly Power had been overly depleted.

"To draft a Master-level Consolidation Scroll with a mere two-bead cultivation base—this achievement is enough to make Consolidation Masters outside die of shame. How could this be flattery?"

Ye Ruichen laughed heartily.

His disciple had only been learning to create Consolidation Scrolls for three months, yet he had already achieved such results.

How could such talent not be a pleasant surprise?

"Xiao Fei, would you mind if I took a look?"

Ye Ruichen looked at Qi Fei with an expectant expression.

"I was just about to ask for your appraisal, Master."

Qi Fei gestured for Ye Ruichen to step forward.

"Good, haha."

Ye Ruichen immediately approached the table and picked up the Consolidation Scroll Qi Fei had crafted.

"The circulation of Heavenly Power is perfect, and the combination of the fire attribute and the strength attribute is exceptionally ingenious. It can be considered a boutique piece even among other Master-level works."

He praised it incessantly while examining it in detail.

It made Qi Fei feel a little embarrassed.

"...Wait, judging by the energy intensity of this scroll, the success rate should be one in ten."

Ye Ruichen was astonished by his own discovery.

There is a concept of success rates when it comes to using Consolidation Scrolls.

Generally speaking, scrolls created by Consolidation Masters below the Master level require at least a thousand scrolls to achieve a single success.

That is a success probability of one in a thousand.

(There are even lower ones, but those are basically apprentice works and don't sell very well.)

Master-level scrolls are generally one percent, while Grandmaster-level ones are around five percent.

Even a God Master-level Consolidation Master like Ye Ruichen can only guarantee a success rate of one in ten.

Yet his disciple had produced a Master-level Consolidation Scroll with a one-in-ten success rate.

Was he dreaming?

"Xiao Fei, how on earth did you do this?"

Ye Ruichen looked at his disciple, even beginning to suspect if some old monster had come to play a prank on him.

"This disciple has gained some insights into the fire attribute, so I incorporated those realizations into the blueprint."

A flame appeared on Qi Fei's hand.

He had added a tiny bit of his comprehension of the laws into it, which was why the flame displayed a terrifying temperature.

Because this was his first time designing a Master-level Consolidation Scroll, Qi Fei chose the fire attribute, which he was most proficient in. Naturally, he had integrated a small amount of his insights during the design process.

Qi Fei had originally thought he had only improved the power of the Consolidation equipment, but he hadn't expected it to significantly boost the power of the scroll itself, enhancing its success rate.

As expected of insights into the laws that govern the operation of the world.

Of course, Qi Fei didn't do this solely to ensure the success of his first Master-level design.

His goal was to leave a sufficient impression on his teacher so that he could apply for higher-level materials in the future to research God-level Consolidation equipment.

Over the past three months, Qi Fei had continuously showcased his genius side to Ye Ruichen, precisely to facilitate this.

"It looks a bit like a flame fueled by Heavenly Dao Power, yet it is far purer."

Ye Ruichen circled the flame in Qi Fei's hand twice, looking amazed.

Heavenly Dao Power is the term for the Heavenly Power of Heavenly King (Ten-Bead) powerhouses, possessing the great power to command the forces of heaven and earth.

Except for a very small number of gifted geniuses who can draft scrolls beyond their rank, most God Masters are at this cultivation level.

In other words, this flame of Qi Fei's was at least at the level of a Heavenly King's attack.

"This is my design blueprint; I ask for your appraisal, Master."

Qi Fei took a stack of blueprints from his Space Ring and handed them to Ye Ruichen.

Compared to finished scrolls, the content on these blueprints was more comprehensive and better showcased the essence of Consolidating Equipment.

Furthermore, this stack of blueprints included everything from Qi Fei's initial drafts to his subsequent revisions, perfectly illustrating the evolution of his designs.

"Marvelous."

Ye Ruichen flipped through Qi Fei's design drafts one by one.

In these drafts, both the construction of the weapon structures and the workflow of the blueprints were typical of their school of thought.

Through this stack of papers, Ye Ruichen could even clearly see the entire formation process of the designs.

What surprised Ye Ruichen even more was that Qi Fei had successfully taken a step further based on what he had taught him.

Although it was slightly immature, it was undeniably his own original expression.

In particular, the architectural approach regarding the fire attribute was something that made Ye Ruichen slap the table in admiration.

Even he, a God Master, couldn't help but find it endlessly thought-provoking.

It was truly remarkable.

"Xiao Fei, now I believe that you can break the legendary limit and complete a twelve-piece Legendary Set."

After savoring them for a long time, Ye Ruichen returned the blueprints to Qi Fei.

He was truly lucky to have taken in such a genius disciple.

"Master, it should be 'we,' I believe you can achieve it in the future as well."

As Qi Fei took back the blueprints, he offered his teacher some words of encouragement.

"Haha, then I shall accept your kind words."

Ye Ruichen said with a laugh.

"Right, I was so focused on watching you make scrolls that I almost forgot the real reason I came today."

With an excited expression, he took a stack of blueprints from his Space Ring.

He carried a sense of pure joy, much like a good friend sharing his most prized treasures.

"Xiao Fei, take a look at this."

Ye Ruichen handed the blueprints to Qi Fei.

The first thing Qi Fei saw was the design for a two-handed greatsword, its complexity far exceeding the Long Rainbow Sword he had designed himself.

Furthermore, it had no inlay slots.

"Master, could this be?"

He looked at Ye Ruichen in shock.

"The design blueprints for a Legendary-grade Consolidating Set, named Abyssal Boundless, a nine-piece set—a gift I've prepared for you."

Ye Ruichen said with a smile.

"You have many attributes, and even I cannot manage to reinforce all of them individually, so I thought to start with Heavenly Power. That is how this Abyssal Boundless set came to be."

"Beyond the inherent strength and agility attribute boosts, the set's greatest enhancement lies in Heavenly Power itself."

"According to my estimates, just three pieces of the set should allow you to compete with a four-jewel expert in terms of Heavenly Power, and the full nine-piece set will be enough for you to easily handle a Heavenly King."

"At the same time, it will continuously draw energy from the outside world to help you recover your Heavenly Power."

"Moreover, I have left a space for a tenth piece; finding the right materials should allow it to be crafted. As for the eleventh or even the twelfth piece, that will require us, master and disciple, to work hard together later on."

Ye Ruichen introduced the blueprints he had poured his heart and soul into to Qi Fei.

"Thank you, Master."

Qi Fei said with deep gratitude.

As far as he knew, designing a nine-piece set alone was already the limit of Ye Ruichen's personal ability, not to mention the need to ensure compatibility for a tenth piece.

Moreover, Ye Ruichen had produced these designs in just three months.

It was clear how much effort his teacher had invested in him.

"I just don't want to be embarrassed at your official apprenticeship ceremony."

Ye Ruichen waved his hand, acting as if it were nothing.

"Once the first three scrolls of this set are crafted, we will hold your apprenticeship ceremony and officially announce to the world that you are a disciple of Ye Ruichen."

Although Qi Fei was currently only at the two-jewel cultivation level, it was always good to be prepared in advance.

"I have troubled you, Master."

Although Qi Fei had guessed that his teacher would tailor a set for him, he hadn't expected results so soon.

After all, with his dual Physical Jewels, Ye Ruichen had to design the relevant blueprints from scratch.

Not to mention that Ye Ruichen had also added the effect of reinforcing Heavenly Power.

It was truly hard for Qi Fei not to be satisfied.

I wonder if this effect of strengthening Heavenly Power can also be applied to the other energies within Qi Fei.

If it can, then Qi Fei and the others would immediately gain a set of universal god-tier equipment.

"You are my disciple; if I don't put effort into you, who else would I put effort into?"

Ye Ruichen asked with a smile.

"Alright, cultivate hard and strive to wear the full set of equipment as soon as possible. I should also go find someone to craft the Consolidation Scrolls for you."

He could hardly wait to let the world know just how outstanding his disciple was.

"Master, may I observe when these scrolls are being crafted?"

Qi Fei asked excitedly.

The crafting process of a Legendary Set was not a sight one could see just anytime.

Besides, even if he didn't cultivate, he would still be able to wear the full set of equipment.

"That's fine. You have indeed reached the point where you should understand these things."

After a moment of thought, Ye Ruichen agreed to Qi Fei's request.

"But you must be careful not to be deceived by that old hag Weiyang."

He earnestly warned Qi Fei.

Ever since that old hag Weiyang became the only one among the three God Masters of Heavenly Jewel Island without a disciple, she had been obsessing over his and Tianyi's disciples all day long.

There was no telling what kind of tricks she might pull this time to lure Qi Fei away.

"Yes, Master."

Qi Fei immediately agreed.
