137: Refining magic weapon

He closed the Workshop.

Mu Feng no longer bothered with the last five Spirit Stones.

He directly put them into his Storage Ring.

With these five, he now had a total of ten Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.

He was a little wealthy now.

"Not bad."

"It wasn't a loss."

This exploration was barely satisfactory.

It consumed two Foundation Establishment Stage Puppets, half a Shaman Treasure, and a High Grade defensive Magical Artifact.

In return, he gained a complete Shaman Treasure, a top-tier defensive Magical Artifact, a Pill Formula for Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation-enhancing Medicinal Pills, and five Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.

Of course, if that was all, it wouldn't be considered a profit.

It would even be a slight loss.

After all, the two Foundation Establishment Stage Puppet Giant Apes were quite useful.

But adding the Demon Core, soul, and Refining Crystal obtained from the Ant King, the consumption of this exploration became barely acceptable.

After all, Refining Crystal was an item he urgently needed.

With it, he could repair the damaged Magic Treasure, Black Emperor Blade, in his hand.

Thinking about being able to repair the Magic Treasure, Mu Feng felt a surge of excitement.

Even a Shaman Treasure, which only possessed one-tenth of a Magic Treasure's power, was so strong.

He couldn't imagine how powerful a Magic Treasure would be.

With an excited heart, Mu Feng pulled out the broken Black Emperor Blade from his Storage Ring.

[System Reminder: Repair Materials have been gathered. Do you wish to repair the Magic Treasure, Black Emperor Blade?]

"Repair!"

Mu Feng nodded.

He had been waiting for this moment for too long.

[System Reminder: Please open the Workshop and sequentially place the Black Emperor Blade, Jade Rubber, Yellow Essence Copper, and Refining Crystal into the Artifact Refining furnace.]

"Is that how it's repaired?"

Mu Feng had thought it would be like repairing the Jade Slip before.

Now it seemed that the repair of a Magic Treasure was much more complicated than a Jade Slip.

But it was also reasonable.

For these Materials to merge into the Magic Treasure, they naturally required forging in an Artifact Refining furnace.

He opened the Workshop's Artifact Refining furnace.

Mu Feng followed the System's reminder and placed all the items inside.

[System Reminder: Place ten more Mid-Grade Spirit Stones into the Workshop to begin the Magic Treasure forging and repair process.]

"Ah?"

"Ten Mid-Grade Spirit Stones."

"That expensive…"

Previously, when he refined Medicinal Pills or Artifacts, one Spirit Stone was enough.

The most expensive was ten.

But now, it started with ten Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.

Damn it!

This Magic Treasure repair was truly not something an ordinary person could afford.

Only he was rich and powerful enough.

If it were anyone else, they might not even be able to gather them even if they lost everything.

"Forget it, for the Magic Treasure, I'll endure!"

Mu Feng gritted his teeth.

He threw the Mid-Grade Spirit Stones, which hadn't even warmed up yet in his Storage Ring, into the furnace.

With the Spirit Stones, a scorching flame quickly erupted from the Artifact Refining furnace.

In a short while, the sound of forging echoed from the Workshop.

The rhythm was similar to the process of him previously crafting the Python Scale Armor.

"It seems that the Magic Treasure repair is to re-forge these Materials into it, repairing and filling in its damaged parts."

Mu Feng speculated in his mind.

The Magic Treasure repair should still take some time.

However, Mu Feng didn't dare to get distracted and do other things.

Last time, when he refined the Foundation Establishment Pill, he almost had an accident due to a Divided Soul.

For something as important as Magic Treasure repair, he had to keep an eye on it to feel at ease.

There were only a few Materials.

If it failed, he wouldn't know where to cry.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

Mu Feng stared intently at every movement within the Artifact Refining furnace, not daring to be distracted in the slightest.

Soon, ten minutes passed.

The forging sounds from the Artifact Refining furnace became slower and slower.

Having Artifact Refining experience, Mu Feng knew this was the prelude to the Magic Treasure being repaired.

As expected, after waiting another minute or two, the forging sounds in the Workshop completely disappeared.

Immediately after, a gleaming black blade, emitting a terrifying power, flew out from the Cultivation Technique.

[System Reminder: Magic Treasure Black Emperor Blade successfully repaired.]

"Success! Nice!"

Picking up the black blade in his hand, Mu Feng's face was filled with excitement.

Finally, he also owned a Magic Treasure!

With anticipation, Mu Feng checked its information.

[Name: Black Emperor Blade (Unrefined)]

[Grade: Low Grade Magic Treasure] (Magic Treasures are divided into Low Grade, Medium Grade, High Grade, Top Grade, and Lifebound Treasure. Lifebound Treasure is refined and nurtured by oneself and can grow. Besides these, there are also more powerful ancient treasures.)

[Effect: Attack Magic Treasure, attack is strange, comes without a trace and leaves without a trace.]

[Durability: 10000 / 10000]

"It really is an attack Magic Treasure!"

"Comes without a trace and leaves without a trace, that's good!"

His current attack, to be honest, was a little insufficient.

Previously, he could easily instantly kill opponents of the same rank or even higher ranks.

Now, he had to fight for a long time.

The reason was that after entering the Foundation Establishment Stage, the power of the Azure Dragon Flag could no longer keep up with the opponent's defensive strength.

And the appearance of this Black Emperor Blade could perfectly compensate for this weakness of his.

This made Mu Feng very happy.

He couldn't put down the Black Emperor Blade.

"Oh, it actually has durability. Is it because of the repair?"

"Or is this unique to Magic Treasures?"

Unlike the Magical Artifacts he had seen before, the Black Emperor Blade's information entry had an extra durability stat.

He didn't know if it was due to his repair or if it was unique to Magic Treasures.

"Forget it, it's all good."

"As expected of a Magic Treasure, it's so hard, ten thousand durability."

The Little Lizard with a thousand durability was already super tough.

With ten thousand durability, it might be able to withstand Core Formation attacks easily.

However, it seemed normal.

After all, it incorporated top-grade Materials like Refining Crystal, Jade Rubber, and Yellow Essence Copper.

It would be strange if the durability was low.

[System Reminder: Do you wish to refine the Black Emperor Blade? You need to drip your essence blood onto it and infuse your Divine Sense to successfully refine it.]

The refinement of a Magic Treasure had one more step than a Magical Artifact.

That was dripping one's essence blood.

This was somewhat similar to hatching Spiritual Insects or spiritual pets.

Mu Feng was quite familiar with this.

He pricked his finger with the tip of the blade and dripped his essence blood onto it.

After the Black Emperor Blade absorbed the essence blood, Mu Feng then infused his Divine Sense into it, slowly refining it.

At this point, the advantage of having a powerful Divine Sense became apparent.

In less than a moment, he had learned all the Magic Arts to control the Black Emperor Blade.

[System Reminder: Magic Treasure Black Emperor Blade successfully refined!]

"Receive!"

With the refinement successful, Mu Feng's thoughts moved.

The Black Emperor Blade in his hand transformed into a black light and drilled into his body!

It then followed his meridians and reached his Dantian.

"No wonder I had to drip essence blood to refine it."

"So it was for the convenience of taking it into the body."

Mu Feng finally understood why he had to drip his essence blood.

It was for the convenience of receiving it into his body for nurturing after refinement.

This was the biggest difference between a Magic Treasure and a Magical Artifact.

The power of a Magical Artifact was always fixed.

But a Magic Treasure was different.

It could increase its combat power through nurturing.

The longer it was nurtured, the stronger its power would be.

"Out!"

Mu Feng's thoughts moved, and the Black Emperor Blade, suspended in his Dantian, transformed into a black light that flew out from his body, rotating beside him.

"Go!"

With another thought, the black light blade transformed into a black light and shot out.

"Stop!"

Seeing it about to hit his Immortal Cave, Mu Feng quickly called for it to stop.

He didn't dare to test the Magic Treasure's power on his Immortal Cave.

Lest it cut out a big hole.

Then he would truly be at a loss for tears.

If he had to test it, he would test it on the Ant Queen!

Now that the Magic Treasure was complete, it was time to settle scores with it.
