After that, He Pingsheng went into seclusion in the hall at the very back of Master Tong's lineage estate.
He swallowed a second-grade Divinity-Pacifying Pill to improve his cultivation.
Although ten thousand years would not be enough to raise his cultivation.
Han Houzhi went to take part in the selection.
Just as He Pingsheng had said, the selection tournament was held right after the auction.
Han Houzhi took part cautiously and, in the end, easily secured a place around three hundredth, winning a [Heavenly Antiquity Token].
At this point, He Pingsheng already had five Heavenly Antiquity Tokens in his possession.
More than thirty years later.
"Young master... it's done... it's done..."
"Look!"
Tong Hao Tian happily brought the two divine artifacts to He Pingsheng's hall.
One of them was a purplish-red staff.
This staff had been forged according to He Pingsheng's requirements, with one end thin and the other thick.
To be precise, it looked less like a staff and more like a club.
He Pingsheng reached out and gripped the thin end of the club. With a forceful swing, vast divine power poured into it.
"It's high grade!" He Pingsheng looked over the staff and smiled. "Not bad, not bad!"
Old Tong said, "Yes, young master. Both divine artifacts are high grade!"
"Actually, this old servant couldn't have forged anything high grade on my own. It was all thanks to the artifact-forging text you gave me, [Heavenly Wave Hundred Refinements]. After studying it, my artifact-forging ability improved by a great deal. Only then was I able to forge high-grade third-grade divine artifacts!"
"Unfortunately, they didn't reach supreme grade!"
"But you needn't worry, young master. Both are growth-type divine artifacts. If they devour high-tier materials from the Divine Realm in the future, they can still advance in tier and grade."
