Chapter 1926: Refining the Spirit Armor

bag..."Mo Xi's head yelled: "Sure enough, he still has money, rob it from him."Xiaohuangmao reached out to grab the canvas bag. Although Ou Yanglan tried her best to protect it, how could one woman po..."Remember this," Lu the blacksmith said gravely, "the set of forging techniques I'm passing down to you is for your own practice only. You must not share it with others."

Ye Bufan nodded: "Senior, rest assured, I will never spread it!"

Lu Tiejiang didn't say any more, and then began to teach the art of forging.

Ye Bufan listened attentively beside him. The more he heard, the more shocked he became. This set of refining techniques was far superior to the one he had cultivated before, simply incomparable.

Two hours later, under the tutelage of Lu the blacksmith, he had grasped the essentials of this set of refining techniques and subsequently began practicing.

Ye Bufan circulated his true qi, condensing it in mid-air into a furnace. He then beckoned with his hand, and a piece of iron ore fell into it.

Then a purple flame ignited in the furnace, and the iron ingot melted rapidly, turning into a pool of molten iron in almost the blink of an eye.

Wow, it's incredibly fast! The refining speed with the Tianyan Purple Fire is over a hundred times faster than before.

Under Lu Tiejiang's guidance, countless impurities in the molten iron were turned into nothingness, leaving behind only a pool of brilliant red molten iron.

Next, the molten iron slowly solidified into shape, and a black long sword appeared in mid-air.

Although this sword doesn't reach the level of a spiritual weapon, it's definitely a very valuable good sword.

The blacksmith Lu, standing beside him, looked utterly shocked. To know that even he would need at least three days to forge such a black long sword.

But Ye Bufan completely subdued the Burning Heaven Purple Fire, and his forging speed was frighteningly fast. It was almost less than half an hour before it took shape.

He's truly a prodigy of weapon refinement. This time, I've found the right successor.

He was secretly delighted but showed nothing on his face, continuing to teach Ye Bufan the art of refining weapons.

At the beginning, they were making simpler things, but later on they started making all kinds of protective gear.

Finally, after refining seven or eight finished products, Ye Bufan's performance had completely satisfied him.

"Well, your current refining level is no less than mine. You can now refine spiritual artifacts."

The blacksmith Lu said, “What did you want to forge before You can take it out now.”

"I want to forge a piece of armor."

Ye Bufan moved his mind, and a huge piece of bloodthirsty bear hide appeared before the two.

"Not bad."

Upon seeing the pelt of a seventh-order demonic beast, Lu Tiejiang remained incredibly composed. Unlike the previous alchemists who had reacted with astonishment and wonder, he showed no signs of being fazed. It was clear that he was a man of vast experience.

The most important thing when crafting protective talismans from animal hides is mastery over fire.

The temperature cannot be too high, or it will damage the material. The temperature also cannot be too low, or otherwise it will not be able to be refined...

After a thorough explanation, he officially instructed Ye Bufan on refining a spirit artifact armor.

Ye Bufan threw the animal hide into the furnace and carefully controlled the burning purple flame to begin refining it.

The bloodthirsty bear hide, which was previously impervious to fire and water with superlative defenses, became docile in the face of the Heavenly Fire Purple Flame. It began to melt slowly, constantly changing shape under his mental control.

After refining for a full hour, Ye Bufan showed a hint of relaxation. With a flick of his hand, a piece of armor appeared in his palm.

At this moment, the armor showed no trace of animal hide. Within the pale yellow light, a faint metallic sheen could be seen.

It feels extremely soft to the touch, but even a slight contact reveals its impressive defensive capabilities.

Such artifacts don't need to worry about size at all; they can change size according to a person's physique.

Ye Bufan's mind moved, and the yellow armor appeared on his body.

Then he grabbed the black long sword beside him, and with a savage swing, slashed it across his own chest.

With just a ding, not only was there no damage, but not even a trace remained.

"Great stuff! It really is great stuff!"

Ye Bufan could feel it, the armor's defense was not inferior to a real bloodthirsty dire bear, even stronger in many aspects.

The blacksmith beside Lu, Tiejiang, looked at the spirit armor and nodded frequently: "You've already mastered eight parts of my skill in being able to forge a high-grade spirit weapon. Just keep practicing slowly and you'll be fine."

"The disciple has seen the teacher."

Ye Bufan came out respectfully and was about to pay his respects to Master Lu Tiejiang as a disciple.

His respect was entirely genuine. Whether it was the Skyfire Purple Flame he had received, or this newly revealed set of alchemical techniques, either one would make countless cultivators envious.

"I never said I'd take you on as an apprentice."

Lu Tiejiang waved his hand and helped him up. “I’ve already said, teaching you how to forge today is just to pay back the consultation fee, and there’s no teacher-student relationship involved. In the future, you absolutely cannot claim to be my disciple when you go out.”

"But..."

Before Ye Bufan could say another word, he was interrupted directly by Lu Tiejiang.

There's nothing special about it. The reason you learned the art of alchemy so quickly is first,

(Continued on next page)

To have mastered the Heavenly Burning Purple Flame, it is because of your own fortuitous encounter, and second, because you had a certain foundation before.

This has nothing to do with me, and you can't go around saying that I'm your master.

"Also, in the future, don't let others easily see the Burning Heaven Purple Flame, and don't let others see you refining artifacts. Otherwise, it could very likely bring disaster!"

"I understand, teacher."

At this moment, Ye Bufan has understood why Lu Tiejiang refused to take him as a disciple. It was because he was afraid of bringing disaster upon him. The other party's background must be extraordinary.

But whether he admits it or not, deep down, he has come to view the other person as his teacher.

"Alright, your business is done. We're even now. Just get out of here and don't delay me from making money by working the forge."

After he finished speaking, he no longer looked at Ye Bufan. He picked up his hammer and continued to pound his hoe.

"Teacher, where is my classmate who came with me"

He had been so engrossed in his studies of alchemy that he only just now remembered Hu Yaya.

This morning

Only then did Ye Bufan realize that it had taken him almost a whole day to subdue the Burning Heaven Purple Fire.

Lu Tiejiang said again: "By the way, that little girl asked me to tell you to return to the academy as soon as possible to participate in some exchange competition and not delay it."

Ye Bufan was startled, only then remembering the exchange competition.

The match itself wasn't a big deal, but he was worried it would affect the upcoming ranked matches.

No matter what, he had to get his hands on the Red Yuan Fruit. Not only did he need it to heal his own injuries, but also to make Lu Tiejiang's limbs regenerate.

Looking at the time, he said eagerly, "Teacher, I should go now. I'll come see you again later."

Lu Tiejiang flung the iron hammer heavily onto the ground, his voice cold as he said, "No need! I've told you, there's no master-disciple relationship between us. Once you leave, don't ever come back."

Ye Bufan already knew his intentions and didn't take them to heart at all.

"Teacher, here you go. I have a lot of materials left, so I can refine more later."

Ye Bufan finished speaking and waved his hand. The spiritual artifact armor appeared on Lu Tiejiang's body.

Without waiting for a reply, he turned and dashed out of the village.

Looking at his back, and touching the armor on his body, Lu Tiejiang murmured: "Let's go, once you leave, don't come back. My Kunlun Artifact God finally has an heir!"

(The End) to heart, Qin Chuchu breathed a sigh of relief and then said, "I finally understand what it means to judge a book by its cover."It's a pity that Gao Jiajun is still one of the top ten richest people...
