The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 189: The Small Heaven-Asking Mirror, The Remarkable Aspects of the Refining Furnace

“Why the breakthrough so quickly?” Ye Feng muttered to himself.

“This is a good thing, shouldn’t the Sect Leader be happy?” The System didn’t understand why Ye Feng would show a hint of melancholy.

Ye Feng ignored the System.

He rose into the air and found the Little White Fox fast asleep while hugging a jar of wine, with the Golden-furred Squirrel lying sprawled out next to it, and Dog Er Ha, Pig San Pang, Toad Si Chu, and Pumpkin Wu Gua all collapsed beside them, feet in the air, snoring as loud as distant thunder.

“They… they actually drank an entire jar of Bizarre Spirit Fruit medicinal wine!”

Ye Feng suddenly realized.

“I understand now, they first ate the Bloodline Purifying Pills I left behind, then continuously consumed High-Grade Spirit Beast Feed for so long, they had already reached the peak of the Middle Rank Demon Soldiers level, and last night they drank so much medicinal wine, coupled with Ji Ziling’s cultivation which stimulated the surrounding Spiritual Energy, so they broke through.”

“No, their breakthrough must also be connected to the amplification effects of Spiritual Objects like the Thousand-Year Ancient Pine Tree and the Purifying Blue Lotus.”

“Another point is that the Sect Prestige Value rose, our Misty Sect’s fortune has grown, which has also lowered the difficulty of making breakthroughs.”

Upon realizing this, Ye Feng completely understood.

Unbeknownst to him, Misty Peak had been transformed into a true cultivation treasure ground.

“Ding, Sect Leader’s second-phase mission settlement is complete. You have received Meridian Recurrence Pills×3, Consolidating Origin Pills×10, “The Second Qi Sea, Lower Volume”, Third Grade Spell “Heavenly Moon Strike”, Secret Technique “Shared Hatred”, one Special Middle Grade Spiritual Artifact.”

“Ding, congratulations Sect Leader for completing the task beyond expectations, you are additionally rewarded with 15 cubic meters of Sect Storage Space.”

“The rewards have been issued, please check them, Sect Leader.”

The System’s notification sounded.

Ye Feng was overjoyed.

Just yesterday, he felt the System Space was too small, but today it expanded by 15 cubic meters, which was quite nice.

He first retrieved a Special Small Gift Pack.

This was a reward given for nurturing spiritual beasts.

“Open the small gift pack!”

“Ding, you have acquired a special Spiritual Artifact, the Heaven-Asking Mirror.”

[Mini Heaven-Asking Mirror: Middle Grade Spiritual Artifact (Special)]

[Introduction: Engraved with an exquisite Formation that can autonomously absorb Spiritual Energy for its own use, it has the function of spying on any area within a thousand miles, subject to interference from shielding Formations, with a sound transmission feature]

[Bound to: Ye Feng (Unique)]

In Ye Feng’s hand, an antique-looking bronze mirror appeared, over one foot in diameter.

With a thought, Ye Feng saw the surface of the mini Heaven-Asking Mirror ripple like water, displaying the image of Xiao Lin Village.

He could see a group of old men sitting on a fallen log, discussing some inappropriate topics while watching the aunties washing clothes not far away.

With another thought from Ye Feng, the image changed to inside the City Lord’s Mansion of Whitefloat City.

The Old City Lord sat in a pavilion, pouring and drinking by himself.

Behind him, two young and beautiful maids were massaging his shoulders and back.

“After a lifetime of cultivation, I can finally enjoy some comfort!” the Old City Lord exclaimed.

Hearing this, Ye Feng had a strange expression on his face.

He continued to use the Heaven-Asking Mirror to spy on the surrounding area, and with a thought, an image covered in mist appeared on the mirror.

This was the valley to the north of Whitefloat City.

Xie Jiaren, who vowed to become the Sea King, stood on the grass, feeding various feeds to the nearby spiritual beasts while muttering something, but it was unclear because of the protective Formation around the valley.

“So, this is what they meant by ‘subject to interference from shielding Formations’,” Ye Feng finally realized.

He didn’t continue using the Heaven-Asking Mirror but turned his attention to the rest of the rewards from the second-phase mission settlement.

Meridian Recurrence Pills×3.

Their purpose is as follows:

If the attempt to break through to the Element Gathering Realm fails and the meridians develop abnormalities, preventing further attempts to advance, one would have no chance with the Element Gathering Realm in their lifetime. By taking this elixir, one could reverse the meridians, gaining an additional chance to break through to the Element Gathering Realm.

Consolidating Origin Pills×10.

This type of elixir is specifically used to enhance the Cultivation Level of the Element Gathering Realm and is the most relied upon pill when attempting to break through to the Element Gathering Realm.

Finding “The Second Qi Sea, Lower Volume”, Ye Feng was ecstatic.

As of today, this Auxiliary Cultivation Method finally completed, and once the disciples practiced it, the capacity of their own Qi Sea would double, effectively elevating them by a small realm within the Element Gathering Realm.

Third Grade Spell “Heavenly Moon Strike”.

This spell is a group attack spell, which when used, forms a moon in the sky that crashes numerous dazzling miniature meteors onto the ground, suitable for dealing with a large number of enemies.

The combined secret technique “Shared Hatred”.

As the name implies, this is a spell that once mastered, can fuse the strength of multiple people to unleash a burst of power far exceeding their own realms.

“This secret technique is indeed good, at the current stage, when the disciples of the Misty Sect use it together, even those in the third level of the Element Gathering Realm would be flattened.”

“Unfortunately, it’s quite difficult to master.”

Ye Feng whispered.

He put these items away and focused his attention on the last special middle-grade spiritual artifact.

[Refining Furnace: Middle-Grade Spiritual Artifact (Special)]

[Introduction: Adding refined materials and the corresponding spirit stones, based on the characteristics of the materials or the demands of the Sect Leader, you can forge spiritual artifacts of the highest quality, with the current forging limit being middle-grade spiritual artifacts]

[Bound to: Ye Feng (Unique)]

[Note: A special spiritual artifact with growth talent, resizable, every time a spiritual artifact is forged, it can absorb some original energy, accumulating to a certain extent, the refining furnace can complete a quality upgrade; after the upgrade, it can forge higher quality spiritual artifacts]

Seeing that only middle-grade spiritual artifacts could be forged, Ye Feng was quite disappointed.

This meant that for now, he could not create the Five Elements Spirit Sword.

However, seeing the last sentence, he excitedly leapt up and reached the high sky hundreds of meters away from the peak in an instant.

With an outstretched hand, a small ancient bronze-colored refining furnace about three inches tall appeared in Ye Feng’s palm.

Three legs, a round body, with a lid.

This was the refining furnace!

“Haha, from now on, our Misty Sect will finally have the foundation for building an Artifact-refining Pavilion.”

Ye Feng was delighted.

In the future, using the refining furnace as the initial capital for the Sect’s Artifact-refining Pavilion, he could gradually develop and expand it until it fully took shape.

“It actually requires refined materials… It seems that I must go to Hundred Artifacts Sect to seek Zheng Yaoshou’s help in refining, and then throw them into the refining furnace to make them into spiritual artifacts.”

Thinking of this, Ye Feng descended back to the peak.

He took out a dozen metal blocks, roughly the size of bricks, which were materials refined by Zheng Yaoshou.

After mentally communicating with the refining furnace, Ye Feng threw all these materials into the enlarging furnace, now a meter tall, then added one hundred thirty-five lower-grade spirit stones into it.

“What is the Sect Leader doing?”

The disciples gathered around.

“Is this artifact-refining? But I’ve never seen such a method,” Mo Ying, with her arms crossed, stood behind Ye Feng and found she couldn’t understand his operations at all.

Clang clang clang!

The refining furnace began to vibrate, and some black smoke emerged from its surface, emitting a choking smell, causing the surrounding disciples to cover their noses and step back.

Ye Feng calmly took out the mini Banana Palm Fan and blew away the furnace ash.

About half an hour later.

Lid open!

Along with several rays of rosy light rushing out, there were three small and exquisite swords floating in the air just above the top of the furnace.

Each blade radiated a sharp light, all being lower-grade spiritual artifacts.

They were just a bit small in size.

“It’s really artifact-refining?” Mo Ying was astonished.

Normally, shouldn’t refining artifacts involve first melding materials, then forging and finally inscribing formations? Why did it seem that with Ye Feng, all you needed to do was throw the stuff into this weird furnace, and after a while, it was done?

Mo Ying couldn’t make sense of it.

The other disciples were also baffled.

Ye Feng did not pay attention to everyone’s shock.

He eyed the data panel of the refining furnace and discovered the following line of text.

[Upgrade Energy: 3%]

“Refining three lower-grade spiritual artifacts has accumulated 3% of energy, which means I still have to refine 97 more lower-grade spiritual artifacts to enable the refining furnace to advance to an upper-grade spiritual artifact.”

Ye Feng revealed an understanding look.

He put away the refining furnace, held the three spiritual weapons and told the disciples, “These are three lower-grade spiritual artifacts called Qingfeng Swords. Don’t let their one-foot length and thinness fool you—they can enlarge ten times when used, and using them for sword flight would be no problem.”

After saying that, Ye Feng gave the three Qingfeng Swords to Yan Ruyu, Ouyang Yu, and Ouyang Feng.
