131: Meteorite Gold

Although it doesn't sound like much, and the Ten Thousand Times Return isn't triggered every time.

But if it only needs to be triggered five or six times a month, that's equivalent to someone else grinding monsters for a year straight.

Returning to his villa, Li Changkong sat down in his room.

After taking out the Tianzi Sword, it looked no different from when he first acquired it.

It was covered in rust, not looking like a sword at all, but rather like a fire poker.

"Ten-year profound iron, ten core crystals dropped by ordinary monsters, and one bone from a green boss."

These were the items needed for the first upgrade, and Li Changkong had already prepared them.

Li Changkong had purchased some basic upgrade Materials from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.

It was a pity, though, that this Tianzi Sword could only be upgraded to Gold Rank at most.

To upgrade it further, it seemed he would need to find some special items.

However, only after reaching Gold Rank would the subsequent upgrade Materials be triggered.

"Do you want to upgrade the Tianzi Sword?"

"Upgrade!"

As Li Changkong confirmed, the items gradually emitted a faint glow.

Under the influence of a mysterious force, the Materials gradually melted and merged into the Tianzi Sword.

The originally dim Tianzi Sword's blade gradually sharpened.

However, after a short while, the sharp blade was once again covered by rust.

But the Tianzi Sword's attribute had changed from White to Green.

"Name: Tianzi Sword (Green)"

"Rank: 1"

"Attribute: Strength +120"

"Skill: Emperor's Might (When facing human or humanoid enemies, Emperor's Might will be automatically released, restricting the opponent's corresponding strength.)"

Li Changkong's hands trembled slightly as he looked at the brand-new Tianzi Sword.

The bonus to his basic attributes had actually reached one hundred and twenty.

One must know that this was only a Green Rank equipment, yet it was already so terrifying.

Moreover, this upgrade had also activated one of the Tianzi Sword's skills.

This Emperor's Might itself was a passive ability; as for how much it restricted, it should depend on one's own strength.

Li Changkong still had some upgrade Materials left; after using all of them, he could upgrade the Tianzi Sword to Purple Rank equipment.

Li Changkong didn't hesitate much and continued the upgrade process.

The subsequent upgrade speed was much slower, but after a whole night, he finally managed to upgrade the Tianzi Sword to Purple Rank.

And the entire Tianzi Sword's attributes were completely renewed.

What puzzled Li Changkong was that even at Purple Rank, the Tianzi Sword still looked rusty.

If he took it out, those who didn't know would think the Tianzi Sword was some kind of scrap metal.

"Name: Tianzi Sword (Purple)"

"Rank: 30"

"Attributes: Strength 300, Physique 100, Speed 50"

"Skill: Emperor's Might, Emperor's Wrath (A full-power strike against an enemy, dealing ten times the user's Strength in damage, and causing bleeding damage.)"

After the upgrade, not only did these attributes develop to an abnormal degree, but also an additional skill, Emperor's Wrath, appeared.

Emperor's Wrath and Emperor's Might were quite different; Emperor's Might was passive, while Emperor's Wrath was an active skill.

Comparatively, the latter was more helpful to Li Changkong.

Although this Tianzi Sword was only Purple Rank equipment, its attributes were comparable to Dark Gold Rank equipment.

Li Changkong was secretly celebrating at this moment, fortunately, he had brought the Tianzi Sword back earlier.

Otherwise, he probably wouldn't have acquired this good item.

To upgrade to Gold Rank, Li Changkong was missing one item: meteorite iron.

"meteorite iron, what do you need that for?"

Hou Wen couldn't help but feel puzzled when he heard Li Changkong's words.

Hou Wen, after all, was born into a wealthy family, so he naturally knew how to obtain meteorite iron.

"I need to forge something right now, so I'm in urgent need of meteorite iron, and I need quite a lot of it, about five hundred units."

Li Changkong looked at Hou Wen and then spoke.

"Five hundred units of meteorite iron?"

Upon hearing such a number, Hou Wen's eyes widened suddenly.

"Is this stuff hard to get? Anyway, I didn't find it in the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion before."

Li Changkong was a bit confused.

"You definitely won't find it in the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. This meteorite iron itself is extremely rare. If you want to obtain it, you can only go to the Gobi Desert."

"If you really want to get this meteorite iron, perhaps you'll need to ask the Fire Dean for help."

Hou Wen looked at Li Changkong and then said.

"What do you mean?"

Li Changkong became even more confused.

"meteorite iron can only be obtained in the Small World, and generally, people don't sell it after obtaining it, so you should think about these things carefully."

"The Small World is extremely dangerous. If your Rank isn't above 40, no one will go there."

Hou Wen continued to warn Li Changkong, as if worried he would put himself in danger.

"Thank you. Then we should meet in a few days. I still need to go to this Small World."

Li Changkong smiled faintly and said.

"You..."

Hou Wen wanted to stop him again, but saw that he had already walked away.

"Impossible, what Rank are you now to want to enter the Small World?"

Fire Dean heard Li Changkong's words and flatly refused him.

"I feel that my current Rank is not low at all, and I can completely enter the Small World."

"Moreover, meteorite iron is a very important resource for me; I must obtain it."

Li Changkong's attitude was very firm as he continued to speak.

"Junior, if your strength isn't enough, the Small World is truly a very dangerous place."

"We are going to the Small World for a mission recently."

Fire Rongrong, seeing the situation, spoke up to stop him.

"Your current Rank shouldn't be very high, right? Why can you go, but I can't?"

Li Changkong retorted.

Fire Rongrong puffed out her chest: "My current Rank has reached thirty-five, which is considered the minimum entry standard, so of course I can."

As the number one Genius of the second year, her proudest achievement should be her Rank.

A Rank of thirty-five was considered top-tier even among third-year students.

"Yes, if the Rank is too low, even if you go in, you won't be able to obtain meteorite iron."

Fire Dean nodded.

"According to this method, if my Rank exceeds thirty-five, I can go in, right?"

Hearing this, Li Changkong showed a hint of a cunning smile.

"That is natural."

Fire Dean nodded.

Li Changkong had never had the habit of displaying his Rank, so others naturally didn't know what his Rank was.

Hearing Fire Dean agree, Li Changkong opened his Rank display.
