Chapter 118: Apologizing, Daoist Priest Chi Lian’s Respect!

“I will not go back on my words. I take back what I have said previously and apologize to this little brother!

“This time, I will take out some of my precious artifact-refining materials as a gift of apology.”

As Taoist Priest Chi Lian spoke, he took out a palm-sized piece of black-purple metal from his storage ring and placed it on the table.

The palm-sized piece of metal was so heavy that the table seemed as if it would collapse soon.

Victor’s eyes lit up. He felt a deep, heart-palpitating aura coming from the black-purple metal. It was as if the dim light in the cave was distorted as it shone on the black-purple metal.

Previously, Taoist Priest Chi Lian had said that if Victor could reveal the flaws of the nine-palace fire spell formation, he would immediately apologize and help Victor forge a sword.

It was extremely difficult for an unruly character like Taoist Priest Chi Lian to bow their heads to apologize. Victor did not expect that not only did he apologize, he even took out a precious material. One could imagine the value of a material that was treasured by Daoist priest Chi Lian!

“Could this be… purple essence gold?”

Ye Lingxuan looked at the black-purple metal in bewilderment and said with uncertainty. This was because she had come into contact with Taoist Priest Chi Lian many times, so Ye Lingxuan had a better understanding of the materials used to forge artifacts.

Purple essence gold was a material that could be used to forge top-grade Earth-grade spiritual artifacts. If purple essence gold was refined and purified, it could even be used to forge heaven-grade spiritual artifacts!

Heaven-grade spiritual artifacts were usually things that only peerless nascent soul realm experts could use!

With this piece of purple essence gold, along with the Sword of Lightning Tribulation and Lightning Dragon’s Blood Essence, the grade of Victor’s sword would probably catch up to the Green Dragon Sword in her hand!

The Green Dragon Sword was the treasure of the Green Dragon Mountain Sect. With this in mind, how could Ye Lingxuan not be shocked!

“That’s right, it’s purple essence gold. My ultimate goal in my life is to forge a heaven-grade spiritual artifact.

“Carve my name and pass it down.

“Therefore, I will gather all the materials that can be used to forge a heaven-grade spiritual artifact. If this piece of purple essence gold was refined and used on a heaven-grade spiritual device, it will be too small.

“However, it would be perfect to forge a sword.”

“Senior Chi Lian, this…” Victor didn’t know what to say. This kind of material was extremely precious to Taoist Priest Chi Lian. He didn’t expect that he would take it out just to stay true to his words.

This old man was truly a man of his word!

Taoist Priest Chi Lian let out a long sigh and slowly said, “My path of artifact forging is just like your path of cultivation. I have said before that if you could pinpoint any flaws in my spell formation, I will apologize and start the furnace to forge your sword. Otherwise, I will break your tongue and make you cripple.”

“If I wanted to destroy your path of cultivation, I’ll naturally have to pay a corresponding price!”

Priest Chi Lian’s words had already implicitly placed Victor on the same level as him.

After all, a peerless expert did not need to be compared with a weakling.

Whether it was Victor’s potential master or his terrifying comprehension in the path of formation, Priest Chi Lian could foresee that in a hundred years, Victor would definitely become a peerless expert.

Victor sighed in his heart. Although Taoist Priest Chi Lian was eccentric, his heart for pursuing the dao was probably extremely firm. People with their own beliefs could often go further on the path of cultivation.

Only such a person would have such achievements in the path of refining artifacts.

Such a person was actually worthy of respect.

Thinking of this, Victor said, “Senior Chi Lian, I have some opinions about your nine-palace fire spell formation. Perhaps it could enlighten you.”

“Huh?” Priest Chi Lian’s eyes lit up and his voice became excited. He naturally didn’t look down on Victor anymore.

“What suggestions do you have? I’m all ears!”

The nine-palace fire spell formation was one of his lifeblood. If he wanted to create a heaven-grade spiritual weapon, the biggest obstacle was the formation itself.

For example, materials like purple essence gold. Although it was said that after refining and purifying it, it would be enough to create a heaven-grade spiritual weapon, it was easier said than done. Priest Chi Lian still didn’t have the ability to do so.

Victor said, “As for the spiritual energy talisman joints that I mentioned earlier, the spiritual energy talisman joints can increase the power of the flames while also causing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to dissipate.

“However, if you add three arc-shaped formation talismans into each spiritual energy talisman joint, calculate the distance and let them gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth as they rotate.

“By doing so, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will be reduced. Of course, the disadvantage is that the arc-shaped formation talismans are easily worn out by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It needs to be redrawn every three years.”

“Once every three years is not a problem!” Taoist Priest Chi Lian blurted out. He was too excited. Just now, he had briefly simulated the model that Victor had built in his mind. It was indeed feasible!

“Alright then. Secondly, regarding the distribution of the revolving formation talisman…”

Victor spoke with assurance. Taoist Priest Chi Lian’s eyes grew brighter and brighter as he listened. Everything that Victor had said was related to the ancient spell formations.

He did not expect that Victor would not only be able to see through the flaws in his magic formation, but he was also able to provide possible solutions!

Seeing through the flaws and giving a solution were two completely different concepts. Priest Chi Lian could also see through some of the flaws, but he was unable to solve them.

It was hard to imagine that a 15-year-old child like him could actually understand the ancient magic formation to such an extent!

“Do I need to pay attention to the angle of the connection between the formation talismans? I didn’t think that the angle of the connection would have a subtle effect on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth!”

Taoist Priest Chi Lian looked as if he had suddenly realized something. He impatiently took a square disk formation and began to analyze it on the spot.

Taoist Priest Chi Lian was dancing with excitement. He continued to analyze and ask Victor a series of questions. These questions were all answered by Victor as long as he opened his mouth.

Just like that, the conversation between the two became more and more harmonious. Ye Lingxuan, who was watching from the side, was dumbfounded.

She watched as the old and the young conversed for more than two hours. They did not seem to have any intention of stopping until the sun had set.

A series of words that she could not understand kept popping out of their mouths. In short, it felt very complicated and profound.

During the conversation, Taoist Priest Chi Lian did not have the slightest bit of his eccentric personality. He smiled and frowned. Whenever he came to a sudden realization, he would slap his thigh happily.

Occasionally, he slapped his forehead in annoyance. He would show an expression of disbelief, wondering why that he had never thought of it before. It consisted of a series of exaggerated and rich expressions.

Seeing that the two of them were probably going to talk all night, Ye Lingxuan did not know what to do. She stood up and made a pot of tea for the two of them.

Two teacups were filled.

At this moment, the two of them picked up their teacups and drank the tea at the same time, probably to moisten their dry throats.

Seeing the two of them open their mouths to drink tea, as if it was a matter of course.

Ye Lingxuan did not know whether to laugh or cry. She was the grand elder of Green Dragon Mountain, but today, she seemed to have become their little maidservant. Not only was she unable to interrupt, but she was also responsible for pouring tea…
