Chapter 1379: Chapter 1379: How is Little Ninth now?
In Yan City, it was at the same starting point, where Yan Ye had once requested Beiting Huang to refine an artifact within the illusion of a formation pattern that Beiting Huang now crouched in front of the Refining Furnace, three months having slipped by unnoticed.
Standing by his side was Liu Kui, intently watching the young boy toss a red crystal, a piece of Ula Iron Ore, and some other auxiliary materials into the furnace in the sequence he had instructed.
One must admit, Beiting Huang was the most talented refiner he had ever seen. Within just three months, if this batch that Beiting Huang was working on succeeded, he would already be a Master Refiner. In truth, the knowledge required for weapon refining was no less than that for alchemy. The melting point of each material, whether their attributes were compatible or repulsive to one another, all had to be crystal clear in one’s mind.
For each material, when to add the next one into the furnace based on the purity achieved during the melting process, these judgments depended on experience. In addition, once the materials melted to a certain extent and started shaping, this required powerful Spiritual Power for manipulation.
In a little over three months, the materials that Beiting Huang used were no fewer than one hundred varieties. Nearly every time he used a material, he would be able to remember its properties accurately in his mind, without requiring any reminder from him.
Watching the youth’s earnest expression, the furnace fire casting his face in nine-colored splendor, Liu Kui felt an indescribable pang of heartache. Ever since Beiting Huang had entered this place, he had been quietly working himself to the bone in learning weapon refining. Even if one were to learn, surely it shouldn’t be done so desperately?
Liu Kui had reminded him countless times, but he was sure that Beiting Huang hadn’t taken his words to heart.
Originally, when the Devil Emperor left, he had also summoned the four guards and the Great Elder, who had always followed by his side. Now they were also within the Four Directions Divine Prison. Otherwise, Liu Kui could have discussed with the four of them together to find a way to help Beiting Huang walk out of this state.
“Sigh, this can’t go on in the long run!” Liu Kui couldn’t help feeling troubled, “This might hinder his cultivation! I have to think of a solution!”
But other than teaching Beiting Huang weapon refining to the best of his ability, Liu Kui really couldn’t think of any solutions at the moment. “This batch should be able to produce a Heaven-Rank Spiritual Weapon if successful. I’ll try to persuade him then!”
Just then, Liu Kui heard someone calling from outside the formation, so he left the refining room and walked outside. At the entrance of the formation, as usual, Liu Xu led the people from Huang City, along with Xu Xiaomo and others.
“How is it now? If his condition has improved…” Xu Xiaomo scratched her head somewhat awkwardly, “Chi Fei and I have some important matters and must head to the Dark Demon World. I’m afraid we can’t wait any longer.”
The energy projection from their Different Plane could only be maintained for one year, and they had already spent close to half a year in the Central Continent. If they did not go to the Dark Demon World now, they feared they would come away empty-handed. However, if Little Ninth needed him to stay, he would, even if this particular projection ended up being fruitless. Thinking of this, Xu Xiaomo couldn’t help but sneak a glance at Lord Beiting Jing standing beside her.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Beiting Lin and others like Beiting Jing looked at Liu Kui, asking, “How is Little Ninth doing now? When is he willing to come out?”
They had originally agreed on one month, but three months had already passed. Leng Qianmo had finished dealing with the matters in Huang City and hurried over, getting ready to depart with Beiting Lin and the others.
Just as Liu Kui was about to shake his head helplessly, a huge Energy Wave suddenly burst from within the formation. The sky’s hue changed as the winds surged and the thick spiritual qi of the world seemed to be drawn to one direction, forming vast vortexes that nearly toppled the people standing at the entrance of the formation and sucked them in.
