Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Second-Order Treasure Artifact

Translator: 549690339

At the entrance of the Stupid Sculpture Refining Workshop, Xu Fan had hung-up a sign advertising repair and custom-made treasure artifacts.

In Zhenhai City, there is a Commercial Street, and the Stupid Sculpture Refining Workshop is located in the busiest section, with a daily rent of 200 Spirit Stones.

In the refining workshop, Xu Fan and his partner were drinking tea and chatting, laughing heartily when they hit interesting topics.

“Junior Brother Xu, I wish I had met you earlier, I’ve been refining artifacts for more than ten years, and now I have finally found a kindred spirit.” His partner said with sincerity. He had a knack for refining since he was a kid, which later led to him being taken as a disciple by an Elder of the Inner Sect’s Refining Master. Since then, his skills have been unrivaled.

He found out that among the younger generation of the Heavenly Gate, there was not a single competing talent in refining.

“Senior Brother, I truly admire your talent in artifact refining.” Xu Fan sincerely complimented, expressing admiration despite their gap in skills.

At this moment, a Golden Core Cultivator entered the shop.

“Can you help me refine a fisnet-like magical treasure, it is best if it is a second-order treasure artifact.” He said immediately upon entering, he had discovered that there were many Nascent Soul Stage demonic beasts in the nearby marine, hence he wants to hunt a batch of them.

“Do you have the materials?” His partner asked indifferently, always unphased by irrelevant people.

“I’ve prepared them, Thousand Soft Steel, Infant Stage Water Jiao Spider’s silk bag, Gold Silk Soft Cloth, Spirit Rhinoceros Crystal……”

The Golden Core Cultivator listed a series of materials.

“The preparation is quite complete, Junior Brother Xu, how do you think this can be refined?”

“Thousand Soft Steel, silk bag, Spirit Rhinoceros Crystal, Thunder Goldstone, Heart-piercing Wood, having these will be enough.” Xu Fan thought for a while and said, to make a fishing net, these things are enough.

“You just leave these things here, come to collect it tomorrow, the refining fee and some offcuts cost a total of 50,000 Spirit Stones, you need to pay a deposit of 10,000 Spirit Stones first.” His partner told the Golden Core Cultivator. A second-order artifact is just of his average skill level.

“Okay, I will come to pick it up tomorrow.”

The Golden Core Cultivator was direct, depositing the down payment and materials without any fuss before leaving.

“This senior didn’t say what his requirements are.” Xu Fan remarked, looking at the pile of materials on the table.

“This kind of niche emergency artifact, as long as it maintains the most basic power, it’s fine.” His partner said nonchalantly. These materials guaranteeing nothing more than an ability to create a second order treasure artifact.

“We should add some more materials, this could fetch us 20,000 Spirit Stones each.” His partner smiled.

Xu Fan was stunned, looking at his partner he asked: “That much, is this the market price?”

He never thought that refining a simple artifact like this could earn so much.

“Surely this would be a bit more expensive than Heavenly Gate, the cultivators on the Floating Skyship are all rich, if we don’t rip them off, it’s our loss. They could earn back this little money in the blink of an eye.”

“Alright then.”

Looking at the pile of materials, Xu Fan said: “Senior Brother, how do we refine

“That’s easy, I’ll handle the material processing and preliminary refining, you just need to engrave the array on the artifact.”

“I’m not as good as you in the rune array, we can utilize each other’s specialties efficiently, and this artifact could be completed in half a day.”

Saying this, his partner collected the pile of materials, heading towards the rear courtyard of the artifact refining workshop.

“Junior Brother Xu, you keep an eye on the storefront for now, I will call you once the first step of refining is complete.”

Xu Fan looked out at bustling street, full of cultivators coming and going, and suddenly felt as if he were operating a worldly business.

“For a net-type artifact, it could directly be made into an electric net. There’s no need to add all kinds of flashy things,” Xu Fan said thoughtfully, detection ot lite, ocean current induction, spiritual power capture, none ot these were needed, except for his personal refining of course.

As Xu Fan was thinking about how to engrave the Rune Array, a slender figure walked in.

“Excuse me, is it possible to repair a pill furnace here?” A soft, sweet voice resounded.

Upon hearing the voice, Xu Fan looked up and saw a charming lady who seemed to have just walked out of the Jiangnan Water Town, dressed in a Qinghua-colored long skirt, with a slender figure.

Why are there so many beautiful women in alchemy?

“Are you an alchemist?” Xu Fan smiled and said. When dealing with beautiful women, as long as there was no deep communication involved, men usually demonstrated considerable patience.

“Yes, when I boarded the Floating Skyship, I brought a spare pill furnace. The other one exploded, and the only one left also exploded yesterday, leaving a crack. ”

“So, I was hoping you could help me repair it.” The young beauty looked at Xu Fan with hopeful eyes. If this pill furnace exploded, she wouldn’t be able to complete tasks on the Floating Skyship.

Xu Fan squinted his eyes. Sometimes, just listening to the voice is a type of enjoyment, especially one as soft and sweet as this.

“Let me take a look at your pill furnace first.”

After checking out the pill furnace artifact, Xu Fan realized that the beauty in front of him was still an apprentice alchemist. Though her pill furnace was slightly better than the one he had initially purchased.

“50 Spirit Stones, and I’ll fix it for you.” Xu Fan stated. Business was business, even if the client was a beautiful woman.

The young beauty’s eyes sparkled. She could afford 50 Spirit Stones, so she promptly placed them on the table.

“When the Floating Skyship collects small ore veins, give me the leftover scraps, and I’ll repair it for you.”

Then, there were additional scraps on the table.

Xu Fan directly restored the pill furnace artifact in mid-air. As a fire-attribute Spirit Stone turned into powder, the surrounding fire-attribute spiritual Qi immediately soared.

A flame appeared below the pill furnace, ready to start the alchemy.

Another wisp of Spiritual Fire ignited, and Xu Fan casually picked several types of Spiritual Ore from the pile of scraps and threw them into the Spiritual Fire.

Then the Spiritual Power Hammer appeared and began to temper the Spiritual

Ore.

He did these things effortlessly, just like how a college student would do elementary school problems.

The admiring eyes of the beauty beside him made Xu Fan feel good, so he considered strengthening the pill furnace for her directly.

The artifact Pill Furnace softened under the refining process. Xu Fan erased the runes inside the furnace. Under his control, the furnace and the tempered Spiritual Ore fluid fused together

Xu Fan casually drew 36 runes in the air and integrated them into the pill furnace.

Moulding, changing color, just like that a pink alchemy furnace shrank into Xu Fan’s hand. The pill furnace was as if it had been re-refined and strengthened again.

After this modification, the worth of the pill furnace had at least doubled.

“I guess you didn’t lose out with those 50 Spirit Stones.” Xu Fan presented the pink pill furnace in his palm to the young beauty. He spoke in a playful tone.

Upon receiving the furnace, the young woman’s face was immediately flushed with a blush. She shyly took the Pill Furnace artifact and ran outside like a butterfly.

“Hey, you forgot to take your scraps.” Xu Fan called out. These things were worth quite a few Spirit Stones.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing Xu Fan’s voice, the young beauty ran even faster. A frost glass mirror appeared in front of Xu Fan, reflecting his plain face.

“Am I really that scary?”
