Chapter 131: 131, [Black Hearted] (Third update!)
Translator: 549690339
Back Mountain, Cave.
Although Lu Xun had already left the seclusion, this cave temporarily became his artifact refining place.
The life occupation settings of “Heavenly Dust” are quite fragmented, like artifact refining, it doesn’t directly give you a refining level to upgrade; then you can refine freely.
For example, if you want to refine a paper crane, you would need to spend experience points to learn the refining technique of a paper crane.
The production method of each magical weapon, requires experience points to learn.
However, after learning, there is an experience reward for each successful refining, although it’s not much.
The paper crane is a superior yellow level magical weapon. Although it appears to be not high in rank, it’s already quite luxurious among flying magical treasures.
Because besides being able to fly, it serves no other purpose.
The average cultivator usually directly manipulates their own flying swords etc., but certainly, the speed and comfort won’t be comparable to a flying magical treasure that is specifically used for flying.
It’s just that most cultivators don’t have the spare money to specifically acquire flying magical treasures. They make do with any magical weapon.
When his third senior learned brother was imparting Lu Xun the method of refining paper cranes, Lu Xun directly spent 30,000 experience points to max out the learning of this method.
Of course, even when learning is maxed out, the success rate will not be 100%, after all, humans make errors, horses may stumble; the success rate is just about 90%.
At this moment, Lu Xun was refining his 35th paper crane.
In his storage ring, 29 finished paper cranes were lying.
“Alas, I indeed am a piece of garbage with a luck value of 1; despite a written success rate of 90%, I have actually destroyed 5 refinings!” Lu Xun said in his heart.
After all, this 90% is based on large data, representing the combined success rate being 90% of all those who have trained this technique to great perfection. Hence, some people may get over ninety, and some may get less than ninety; undoubtedly Lu Xun was the latter.
After a series of proficient operations, Lu Xun received the system prompt information.
“[Ding! You have successfully refined a paper crane (Yellow), and have gained 1000 experience points.]”
Lu Xun smiled slightly, then directly collected the finished paper crane into his [Backpack], which was his storage ring, then pretended to sigh and said, “Ah, another refinement failure.
With the help of the game system, outsiders absolutely can’t tell whether he was successful in refining.
Under this pretense, although the third senior brother was puzzled, he didn’t have any suspicions about Lu Xun. Instead, he reassured him several times:
“Little junior brother, don’t be impatient, don’t feel defeated, just try a few
Lu Xun was quite moved by this.
Although his heart was wicked, he still had a bit of conscience. To compensate his third senior brother, he tasted the dark dishes his third senior brother made every day with all his might, which could be considered a return from him.
They were brothers, taking what they needed from each other. The third senior brother did not feel a pinch while handing out materials, and Lu Xun could comfort himself while eating dark dishes: all for survival. 𝒻𝓻𝑒ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝑛𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝑐𝘰𝓶
In the cave, Lu Xun sat cross-legged, then sighed: “Phew! Finally, the 30,000 experience points are earned back.”
“Starting from now, every refining, as long as it is not a failure, will all be pure profit!” Lu Xun couldn’t help but laugh.
Although Lu Xun managed it so easily, for other players, artifact refining was certainly not a good way to gain experience points.
After all, 1000 experience points per time, is considered good only in the early stage of the game, but where can players find refining materials at this stage?
In today’s society, what is restricting young talents like you and me?
It’s poverty!
Most players who refine artifacts sell their finished products to buy materials, then repeat the process to save money.
And selling things also costs time!
Furthermore, even if they could acquire plenty of refining materials, players have limited spiritual power values. Refining artifacts is quite draining for spiritual power, and what Lu Xun lacked the least was spiritual power!
His spirituality value is much more abundant than players of the same level!
Comfortably, Lu Xun admired the 30 paper cranes arranged in rows inside his storage ring.
“I should succeed once; otherwise, it’s hard to explain to the third senior brother.” Lu Xun said in his heart.
So, he started refining again, and then—at last, he succeeded!
“Ah! It’s indeed a well-deserved success with effort!” He exclaimed.
At noon, the people in the back mountain were still eating in the bamboo forest. Lu Xun timely informed the third senior brother about this “good news”!
“Third Senior Brother, I finally made it! Look!” While speaking, he took out his “debut work” from his own storage ring.
The third senior was a good person, behaved honestly and innocently.
Although he was a big dog owner, he never made unscrupulous profits.
He looked at the paper crane in Lu Xun’s hand with his squinty eyes and wanted to encourage and praise him kindly.
After all, his little junior brother insisted on refining for so many days, wasted thirty batches of materials, and only succeeded once. Without encouragement, he might feel a sense of failure.
“Look, how happy and bright our little junior brother’s smile is!” The third senior brother said in his heart.
Lu Xun gave the paper crane to Lin Chan and said, “Little Chan, I give the first paper crane that your master refined to you. You must work hard at cultivating.
When you reach the Initial Realm, you can use it to fly.”
Lin Chan hurriedly put away the paper crane after hearing this.
This is her master’s first work after all. She felt it was particularly precious and had extraordinary significance. It must be well preserved.
But when the third senior brother saw that Lu Xun had given the paper crane to Lin Chan… Did that mean that Little Junior Brother still didn’t have his own flying magical treasure?
If I were to tell him now, “Let me help you refine it,” would it be a blow to him? After all, it’s only today that he succeeded the first time and is about to regain his confidence.
Okay, okay, let me get some more materials from the Demon Sect Treasury later by exchanging Spirit Stones. Just let Little Junior Brother go ahead and use it all up.
“Look, he’s in such a good mood today that he almost finished serving the innovative dish I made.”
Perhaps because Lu Xun was very gracious to finish the dish, the third senior brother was also in a great mood and was prepared to get a little more materials for Little Junior Brother later.
“Which flying magical treasure is enough? What if it broke? We should always leave a spare, shouldn’t we?” The third senior brother was very thoughtful. Anyway, for him, such a small material cost is completely affordable.
So, Lu Xun underestimated the third senior brother’s wealth indeed.
He was just too poor, that he couldn’t imagine how rich the wealthy actually are.
Lu Xun sat there, staring at the third senior brother’s innovative dish and gorging on it mouthful after mouthful, mainly pretending to chew and actually just swallowing it.
He was not eating the food, he was masticating his conscience mouthful after mouthful.
