Slaughter

Game time? He actually called this King's time "game time." The Smiling Old Man's body was subtly radiating a power that threatened to burst forth. His grandpa's egg! This King had dominated the world, and who wasn't afraid of him? Even those Emperors trembled at the mention of this King's name, yet this kid actually said he was just playing a game with him.

He thought he was here to be his nanny? Game time? Damnable! The Smiling Old Man had thought he saw through Ren Jie, but he never expected this kid...

"His grandpa's egg! You brat, you're deliberately trying to provoke this King, trying to get more information out of this King. Aren't you afraid this King will kill you?" As he spoke, the Smiling Old Man suddenly retracted all his aura. In that instant, although he stood there, it was as if he didn't exist. There was no killing intent, but it gave off an even more terrifying feeling.

An assassin, a being whose true purpose was killing.

"Since you can come and go freely in the Ren Family, killing me wouldn't be difficult." Ren Jie's heart also sank, because this feeling was truly uncomfortable, like being targeted by the Grim Reaper and judged by the King of Hell. He didn't deny that his words were intentionally provoking the Smiling Old Man to get more information, but he didn't say anything more. He walked directly in front of the Smiling Old Man and stuffed the Profound Yin Sword box into his hand. "A bet is a bet, let's start. Don't you want to try what it feels like to repair a High-Grade Spirit Artifact?"

"His grandpa's egg..." The Smiling Old Man instantly returned to normal, becoming a living person again, and cursed angrily.

Then, looking at the Profound Yin Sword in his hand, he cursed, "What the hell is the point of repairing this? As soon as it's opened, the Yin Sha energy immediately dissipates. This thing is harmful and useless, you should throw it as far away as possible as soon as possible. Also, although this King understands some artifact refining methods, he's only slightly better than those artifact refiners who refine ordinary iron. It's good enough if he can barely reach the level of a Middle-Grade Spirit Artifact Refiner. At his most powerful, he could only forcefully refine a Middle-Grade Spirit Tool with strength and good materials. Repairing this thing is ten times more difficult than refining it, even Top-Tier Spirit Artifact Refiners can't..."

"A bet is a bet, why so much nonsense? You do as I say, otherwise how can it be called a moment to witness a miracle?" Ren Jie waved his hand, telling the Smiling Old Man to stop talking nonsense and quickly do as he said.

Another "a bet is a bet." The anger that the Smiling Old Man was about to unleash was suppressed again. Good, you father and son are truly damn amazing.

This King has made it clear to you. This King wants to see how you, brat, can repair this High-Grade Spirit Artifact that has already failed in refining. You really think you're omnipotent? If you can repair a High-Grade Spirit Artifact at your age, reaching the level of a Celestial Artifact Refiner who can refine Transcendent Treasures, then you're a hundred times more awesome than your old man.

"Before opening the seal, first condense a formation with Mana, and temper it with your Natal True Flame. Because this is a nearly completed High-Grade Spirit Artifact, it doesn't need to be refined separately. First, you need to control a few things. One, the Yin Sha energy must absolutely not be allowed to dissipate, it must be kept at its most vigorous state. When refining to..." Ren Jie didn't want to waste time and had already started directing the Smiling Old Man to work.

Although Ren Jie's major realm had improved again, it was only a small step forward. In terms of artifact refining, he couldn't even see through a High-Grade Spirit Artifact. However, because he had comprehended the method to repair the Profound Yin Sword during the Sage Dao Discussion of the Five Great Sages, he now had the most detailed method for repairing this Profound Yin Sword in his mind.

Following his step-by-step guidance, the Smiling Old Man moved quickly, completing the requirements Ren Jie mentioned one by one.

Gradually, around the Smiling Old Man's body, the Yin Fiend Power within the Profound Yin Sword was gradually activated, forming a unique flow. This feeling was like performing an organ transplant on a living person; the trachea would die as soon as it left the body. This Profound Yin Sword was just one step away from completion but couldn't be finished, and it was in this state. Under the seal, there were fluctuations at the level of a Middle-Grade Spirit Tool, but once opened, it would die.

And Ren Jie's first step was to have the Smiling Old Man use powerful force to gradually circulate the sealed Yin Fiend Power, little by little, so that the Profound Yin Sword would remain in a sealed state even after being opened, preventing it from instantly collapsing. This would make it convenient for him to make more modifications.

Following that were complex internal modifications. Since this Profound Yin Sword was refined into scrap, it meant there were definitely many things wrong during the refining process. And those who dared to refine High-Grade Spirit Artifacts certainly wouldn't be too bad. This kind of error was very subtle and difficult to find. Generally, if one's realm wasn't much higher, it would be impossible to discover. This was also a major reason why the difficulty of repairing was greater than re-refining. However, Ren Jie clearly knew where the problem was and directly had the Smiling Old Man make the modifications.

After only modifying a few points, the aura on the Profound Yin Sword had changed. Then, Ren Jie had the Smiling Old Man start refining and performing other repairs.

Details, increasingly minute details, details that even Top-Tier Spirit Artifact Refiners would find difficult to detect. It was these minute details that ultimately led to the failure of this Profound Yin Sword's refining. And now, even the flawed areas were found by Ren Jie. Only subtle corrections were needed, without adding any other materials.

Time passed bit by bit. At first, the Smiling Old Man felt amused, thinking that this kid really didn't know his own limits and was fantasizing about repairing a High-Grade Spirit Artifact that had been refined into scrap. But gradually, he himself became deeply engrossed.

Ren Jie was just telling him what to do. Ren Jie hadn't reached this realm yet, and although he could explain in great detail, he didn't actually know how. But the Smiling Old Man was different.

So this is how you can control the repair power, this is simply too magical.

You can actually control the Natal True Flame in segments like this, actually...

Unconsciously, the Smiling Old Man found that there were many places where even he could learn a lot, although he was repairing a High-Grade Spirit Artifact. It involved control of power, formations, Runes, and many other kinds of knowledge.

"Good, finally gather it. Right, while it's not completely finished refining, if possible, use power to engrave the four dots of a dice on the hilt of this sword." The moment Ren Jie gave the final reminder that the repair was about to be completed, the Smiling Old Man himself was startled.

Only at this moment did he suddenly realize that less than an hour had passed, and it was already nearing completion.

Completed, it was really about to be completed. Damn, and he completed it with his own hands, this... is this real?

The Smiling Old Man himself couldn't quite believe that all of this was real, but the facts were right in front of him, and he couldn't help but believe it.

Celestial Artifact Refiner? Able to refine Transcendent Treasures, Transcendent Treasures that could suppress a nation, could this kid really be...

At the last moment, his heart was incredibly shocked, but he didn't dare to be distracted, because at this moment, even he was fully invested in it. This was a grand feat that he had never thought he could complete before. Although he was strong enough, after all, this was not something he was skilled at.

Boom... Buzz... The final sword cry soared into the sky. Instantly, all the Yin Sha energy condensed, and the Profound Yin Sword was finally completely repaired. As the Yin Sha energy completely integrated into the sword, four dots could be clearly seen on the hilt.

Although he had personally completed the repair, the moment the High-Grade Spirit Artifact was restored, the Smiling Old Man immediately looked at Ren Jie as if he were looking at a monster.

"What the hell are you talking about? Tell me quickly, are you really a Celestial Artifact Refiner?"

Celestial Artifact Refiners were legendary figures in the Bright Jade Dynasty, representing a legendary height.

Ren Jie reached out and took the Profound Yin Sword from the Smiling Old Man's hand, looking at it with great satisfaction. At the same time, he said, "If I were already a Celestial Artifact Refiner now, I wouldn't need to be like this. In Jade Capital City, I'd be walking sideways, if not close to it. This is just a repair method I obtained by chance."

The Smiling Old Man actually felt it was impossible when he asked the question, because how noble were Celestial Artifact Refiners? If this kid were truly a Celestial Artifact Refiner, countless powerful and super-powerful individuals would follow him with just a single word.

"Hmph, your nose is quite sharp, you know when there's a slight change. Someone's coming, let's go." Originally, the Smiling Old Man wanted to ask how Ren Jie could know such a comprehensive repair method. If he knew such a comprehensive repair method, even if his strength was slightly weaker than his, anyone who reached the Yin Yang Realm could repair it. However, just at this moment, he sensed someone approaching. With a wave of his hand, he instantly soared into the sky with Ren Jie.

This time, Ren Jie didn't feel the semi-conscious, groggy feeling he had experienced a few times before. He was very clearly aware that a warm force was enveloping him and the Smiling Old Man, rapidly streaking through the air.

Just as the Smiling Old Man had taken Ren Jie away, several strong auras quickly arrived in the sky, though most were rapidly flying through the air with the help of Magical Treasures.

"What's going on? I clearly sensed the presence of a High-Grade Spirit Artifact just now."

"In this desolate wilderness, could someone be refining artifacts here?"

"It doesn't seem like artifact refining, it's strange."

"Although I couldn't break through again today, I finally managed to repair this Profound Yin Sword. Thanks." As he spoke, Ren Jie had already put the Profound Yin Sword into his Storage Bag. Ren Jie was currently using the Storage Bag that Chang Lao Si had brought, and he found it very convenient to have one. This also made him want to reach the True Qi Realm as soon as possible and open the Family Head Ring he was wearing.

"What do you mean you couldn't break through again today!!" Hearing Ren Jie's slightly disappointed tone, the Smiling Old Man's figure suddenly stopped in mid-air. He was so angry in his heart. This kid was saying that what he had prepared this time wasn't as good as the Battle Eight Directions Annihilation, and he was actually disappointed that it didn't make him break through.

"What the hell are you talking about? Do you think breaking through is as easy as eating and drinking? You want to break through just because you want to? Breaking through a layer in one night, who do you think you are!" The Smiling Old Man had been holding back a belly full of anger for a long time.

This time, Ren Jie really didn't mean to anger the Smiling Old Man, he just stated the truth: "Originally, I had a bit of luck and insight in my cultivation these past two days, and I was about to break through again. If it could really be like cultivating the Battle Eight Directions Annihilation before, I should have been able to break through."

Damn it, hearing this, the Smiling Old Man really regretted it. He should have brought a thousand Bewitching Demon Monkeys over and then thrown this kid in to see what he would do.

This damned brat, isn't this pointing at a monk and calling him bald? Others would pee their pants when they heard his name, no one dared to see him, but not only did he make him help him repair things for free, he also complained that the cultivation he prepared for him was too simple and not enough pressure...

Not enough pressure, huh? Fine...

Suddenly, the Smiling Old Man turned his head sharply to look towards the southeast. It was the darkest moment of the day, but his gaze seemed to penetrate the distance, seeing very, very far away.

"Killing a few small demon monkeys isn't enough fun, huh? You're very bold, huh? Then let This King see how strong your endurance is..." The Smiling Old Man said, and the next moment, he had already taken Ren Jie and rushed towards the southeast.

Sun Family Town, a small town with over three hundred households and more than two thousand people, everyone was still asleep at this moment.

But in the large courtyard of Sun Zhu, the richest man in Sun Family Town, at the eastern end of the town, sounds of pain and terror could be heard.

"Ah... ah... you're not human... you even kill children... he was just born, you... ah..." Sun Zhu, who was nearly fifty years old, was also at the second layer of the True Qi Realm. He had also ventured outside in his early years, and later returned to Sun Family Town to become the richest man in the town. Sun Zhu was benevolent and charitable, and was also known as Sun the Benevolent. Everyone within a few hundred miles knew that if they were in trouble and sought help from Sun the Benevolent, he would definitely help generously. But at this moment, Sun Zhu was holding a little girl of seven or eight years old wearing a bathrobe and constantly retreating, his abdomen already pierced.

There were no survivors in the entire Sun Family courtyard, dead bodies were everywhere, from eighty-year-old elders to children who couldn't even walk yet. More than a hundred people in the Sun Family, even his grandson who had just passed his full moon not long ago, were killed by this person. If it weren't for Sun Zhu's granddaughter, Sun Rui, running to him and saying something had happened, Sun Zhu might not even have had time to organize a resistance.

"You... who exactly are you? Disaster shouldn't affect family, moreover, I, Sun Zhu, have never provoked anyone, and I haven't been in the martial world for over twenty years..." Blood kept flowing from Sun Zhu's abdomen, his long sword was also broken in half, and he had dozens of wounds, but his left hand was still tightly holding his granddaughter, who was trembling with fear and clinging to his arm. He had many sons and grandsons, but he loved this little granddaughter the most. Although she was born in a small town, Sun Rui didn't have any rustic air about her.

But at this moment, amidst this terrifying slaughter, she had long been frightened, her body constantly trembling, but in such terror, her eyes were fixed on the demon who was slaughtering their Sun Family.

Sun Zhu couldn't understand. He had retired after accidentally obtaining a fortune because he didn't want to live that kind of bloody life, he wanted a peaceful life, and he didn't want to desperately strive for anything. It had been over twenty years in a flash, and he had no enemies at all, but today someone suddenly came to kill his entire family.

"Master, hurry and go... Bang..." The last two remaining guards at the Body Refining Realm Ninth Layer had their bodies directly split in two by the opponent, and just as these people were killed, the tall, thin man in a black tight-fitting suit with a faint smile on his face walked over unhurriedly.
