"Junior Sister Wei, let's stop here."
The river bay has a wide expanse of water, with calm and deep currents, nurturing countless aquatic creatures.
Wei Chengfeng told Chen Shuangbai the location of the ancient battlefield, and then he did not linger any longer.
Chen Shuangbai cupped his hands towards Wei Mingdang and said, "Uncle-Master's old injury has just healed and he still needs to rest. After I return, I will personally refine a batch of [ Green Wood Transforming Rain Pill ] for Uncle-Master. Junior Sister, please remember to send someone to pick it up then."
Wei Mingdang initially intended to refuse, but upon hearing about the pill, he said, "Since that's the case, I'll shamelessly accept it, and I'll surely repay you later."
Chen Shuangbai rose into the light and disappeared above the open river, vanishing into the thick clouds.
Wei Mingdang stared at it for a long time, his heart filled with envy.
Chen Shuangbai was already in the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, but she was still in the Late Qi Refining Stage...
It wasn't that Wei Mingdang was afraid to attempt the Foundation Establishment; it was entirely because he was worried about his elderly father's safety that he hesitated to attempt it.
" Foundation Establishment, huh..."
Wei Mingdang muttered a few words, then turned and returned to his water residence.
When Wei Chengfeng saw his daughter return, he casually asked, "Has she already left?"
"Um."
Da da da.
A servant came from the side hall and presented the imperial edict of the mansion to Wei Mingdang. Wei Chengfeng then said the following.
"I cannot forget to repay the life-saving grace."
" Dang'er, take your time and find a few treasures to send over. It will be a way of repaying this debt of gratitude... In the future, you'll be able to speak with Chen Shuangbai within the sect."
Wei Mingdang knew that her father was once again arranging favors for her.
But she did not refuse.
She carefully selected three treasures and told Wei Chengfeng about them one by one. The latter waved his hand and said, "You can decide for me!"
He looked deeply into his daughter's eyes and said earnestly, "My health has been a burden to you for many years, but now I am fully recovered. You should quickly return to your clan and prepare to break through to the Foundation Establishment. This way, I can finally give your mother some peace of mind."
"Father... what are you saying...?"
Jade Screen Peak.
Moon-Gazing Pavilion.
More than a month has passed since we returned from the Wall Reef Water Manor.
In the past few days, Chen Shuangbai has moved most of the family's assets from Verdant Hills Stream to Jade Screen Peak. Meanwhile, things haven't been idle in Verdant Hills Stream either, with two servants still managing it, so that it will have a place to stay when he returns to his clan in the future.
That day.
The sky was clear and the clouds were few. The sunlight shone on the lake, making it sparkle and look beautiful.
Chen Shuangbai is refining Spirit Artifact.
A ghost banner and an invisible veil that deflects attacks.
It was obtained from Fang Yan, the personal disciple of the Golden Core cultivator Qing Yizi of the Wu Kingdom, in that blessed land that day.
I've been quite busy lately, with practicing magic and opening up new residences...
Now that the beppu is completed, I can finally have some leisure time.
This ghost banner is a demonic Spirit Artifact, of mid-grade quality, containing the souls of many people and demons. To be honest Chen Shuangbai, who comes from the righteous path, finds it extremely distasteful.
Coincidentally, the cultivation notes of True Person Bo and the insightful writings of several predecessors obtained from the Book Collection Cave contained particularly vivid and interesting sections on weapon crafting.
Chen Shuangbai then sat in on a few sessions of alchemy instruction and gained some insights, so he decided to use the ghost banner as his starting point.
Taking advantage of a Lunar Rites on a full moon night, Chen Shuangbai summoned moonlight and splashed it like water onto the hideous ghost patterns on the banner. With the wails of wronged souls and the smiles of the ghost patterns... Chen Shuangbai dismantled the ghost banner.
The legal prohibitions incorporated into it are not suitable for Chen Shuangbai.
However, the spiritual materials used in this ghost banner are of superior Higher Vehicle.
It took quite a bit of time.
By meticulously crafting the banner, weaving its surface, drawing incantations, and depicting patterns, three sets of magical restrictions were incorporated, transforming it into a... entirely new precious banner.
This is different from the [ Clear Waves Reflecting the Moon Banner ] that Chen Shuangbai already possessed.
This brand-new treasure banner serves two purposes: firstly, it proves Chen Shuangbai in weapon crafting; secondly... it is one of the ways Chen Shuangbai demonstrates his cultivation.
Unlike the [ Clear Waves Reflecting the Moon Banner ], Chen Shuangbai did not transform this new banner into one with water and wood attributes, or even lean towards the Grand Yin aspect. Instead, he followed the original attributes of the banner's spiritual materials and refined it into a banner that could absorb Yin and Sha Qi and transform earth energy into auspicious energy.
After some thought, Chen Shuangbai named it the [ Transforming Baleful Intent and Transmuting Spirit Banner ].
The banner was then placed Jade Gauze Cave, thus giving Jade Screen Peak a protective artifact.
After that.
With this banner suppressing the earth's energy and Spirit Vein, on the one hand, it can completely consume all the Sha Qi and yin energy accumulated in the earth's veins, preventing the birth of any evil spirits; on the other hand, the transformed earth energy and auspicious energy slowly improve the level of this spiritual peak.
One day, we will be able to upgrade the First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Vein flowing below to the second grade... which should be no problem at all.
As for that invisible veil that can deflect attacks from others.
Chen Shuangbai studied it for a long time but couldn't find a way to get started.
This thin veil is completely unaffected by Law Power... Thinking back, when I fought Fang Yan that day, he only used it two or three times. Presumably, it couldn't be refined, which is why I couldn't control it at will.
But this thin veil is indeed very useful.
If used correctly, it might save your life in a critical moment.
Seeing that their master had crafted Spirit Artifact in no time, several spirit beasts clamored for one of their own.
However, Chen Shuangbai did not agree to all of them, but only gave Feiguang one item.
Neither Gray Ball nor Changming needed to go out and fight alongside Chen Shuangbai and the cultivators; they could simply stay at home and keep watch.
Now, Gray Ball is in charge of managing the medicinal fields and fragrant herbs cultivated on and around the peak; Changming is even simpler: on the first and fifteenth of each lunar month, when the moon is full, it needs to perform a Lunar Rites to collect the Essence of the Moon for Chen Shuangbai.
Only Feiguang was entrusted with an important task by Chen Shuangbai!
Instead of forging a new Spirit Artifact, Chen Shuangbai selected one of the treasures sent by Wei Mingdang and bestowed it upon Feiguang.
The three treasures were personally delivered by Wei Mingdang.
Chen Shuangbai had no choice but to accept it, unable to refuse.
One [ Profound Water Essence-Stabilizing Pearl ], one piece of [ Jade Tide Coral Branch ], and one [ Aura-Concealing Feather Robe ].
After much deliberation, Chen Shuangbai bestowed the [ Aura-Concealing Feather Robe ] upon Feiguang.
This feather robe looks dull and ordinary, without any outstanding features, but it actually has the effect of concealing one's aura. In other words, by wearing this feather robe, one's aura is mostly concealed, allowing one to approach the opponent silently and then launch a fierce attack.
It's perfect for Feiguang.
Feiguang transformed into human form, allowing Chen Shuangbai to drape the gray feather robe over her shoulders.
Once the feathered robe was donned, it vanished without a trace, as if it had never existed.
After Feiguang refined it, in Chen Shuangbai's eyes, Feiguang's figure suddenly became blurry, and his aura instantly became faint, showing that Wei Mingdang had not exaggerated.
