248: Customization successful

It could only be used to post tasks, stating that he wanted to exchange Medicinal Pills.

Exchange mid-grade yuan solidifying pills for low-grade yuan solidifying pills.

If one mid-grade yuan solidifying pill were offered, it would probably trade for five low-grade yuan solidifying pills; he believed the manager of Night White Tower would definitely be tempted.

When he swallows this Medicinal Pill containing the "Blood Soul Restriction," hehe!

But what if the manager of Night White Tower isn't tempted?

Should he use a High Grade guyuan pill as bait instead?

That way, one High Grade guyuan pill could be exchanged for 15 low-grade yuan solidifying pills.

There’s a high probability that someone would make the trade!

Would the manager of Night White Tower take the bait?

Gu Changan checked the time; it was already time to pick up the goods.

Gu Changan arrived at the small Artifact Refining workshop once again.

The door was only slightly ajar, and the air still held a trace of heat.

It seemed that the Artifact Refining had only just finished not long ago.

Gu Changan probed with his Divine Sense and discovered a visibly exhausted Middle-aged Cultivator, leaning against a massive Artifact Refining furnace, sleeping soundly.

The Middle-aged Cultivator's eyes were tightly shut, though his eyeballs were moving slightly.

It seemed he wasn't sleeping very deeply; the dust on his body and the mess in the room showed that he had spent the last two days in a state of high tension.

It seemed that the items he wanted customized were already finished.

Gu Changan extended a finger and pushed the slightly ajar door, which made a creaking sound.

The Middle-aged Cultivator immediately sat up and looked toward the door, his expression showing a hint of panic.

However, upon seeing it was Gu Changan, his panic immediately turned into surprise.

He hurriedly stood up and bowed to Gu Changan.

"Fellow Daoist! You've arrived?"

"I just finished the refining!"

"I was just wondering when you would visit!"

"I didn't expect you to be so punctual!"

He then took three wooden boxes out of his Storage Pouch.

The style of these three wooden boxes was very ordinary, and after opening them casually...

Inside the first one was a mask as thin as a cicada's wing.

The mask only had two eye holes, and the area below the nose was hollowed out.

The cheeks on both sides extended straight down to the chin.

The mask was bone-white overall, and it didn't look like anything special!

The Middle-aged Cultivator saw Gu Changan begin to examine the treasure he had refined.

A hint of pride rose in his heart, and he stepped forward to introduce it.

"Normally, this mask is just a white mask!"

"It simply serves to block others' line of sight!"

"It can disguise your appearance!"

"However, when you inject Spiritual Qi into it, the entire mask will become transparent and adhere to your face."

"At that point, you can change your appearance!"

"Or you can imagine the person you want to disguise yourself as, and the mask will automatically manifest the likeness in your mind!"

"However, to maintain the disguise state, the mask will constantly consume spiritual power!"

Gu Changan became interested after hearing this.

He picked up the mask and began to inject spiritual power, and the mask slowly became transparent.

Overall, it wasn't completely transparent; it was just a slightly yellowish, gelatinous mask.

Gu Changan cut off the supply of Spiritual Qi, and the mask returned to its bone-white color!

"Does it have a name?"

The Middle-aged Cultivator scratched his head: "I designed it myself!"

"Whatever you want to call it, Fellow Daoist, is fine!"

Gu Changan was very satisfied and put the mask away directly.

Then he opened the second box, which contained a bronze Token.

The surface was engraved with relief-like patterns, and it felt very substantial in his hand.

On the back, there was an engraving of a slanted black feather, and at the base of the feather was a tiny character, "Shadow."

Gu Changan looked at the Middle-aged Cultivator: "What functions does this Token have?"

The Middle-aged Cultivator hurriedly explained: "It has standard communication functions!"

"It can sense at close range and verify identities!"

"Fellow Daoist! This is just a sample!"

"If you come back to me to make the same Token in the future, I will give you a discount!"

"Based on my previous quote, I can offer 10% off!"

"If the quantity is large, 30% or 40% off is not impossible!"

Gu Changan was slightly taken aback; he hadn't expected this Shop Owner to want to do future business?

Oh well! Who allowed him to copy things infinitely?

It would be impossible for him to do his own business in the future!

Gu Changan casually picked up the last wooden box, which was also one of the larger ones.

After opening it, a bronze soul lamp lay quietly inside.

The entire lamp base was covered with unknown runes and reliefs.

At the very top, there was a small circular plate filled with an unknown liquid.

A wick was inserted in the middle of the small plate.

Gu Changan looked at it but didn't want to study it, so he put it away directly.

This made the Middle-aged Cultivator swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Gu Changan nodded at the Middle-aged Cultivator and left the shop directly.

The Middle-aged Cultivator shouted softly from behind: "Come back often, Fellow Daoist!"

"If you are still satisfied, you can continue to order from me!"

Gu Changan left without looking back.

This time, he didn't return to the Inn but went straight out of Tianbao City.

Because Gu Changan wasn't sure if doing certain things in Tianbao City would expose any flaws.

Tianbao City had Nascent Soul Cultivators present, after all!

And the nearby Huibao City was just a small city; there was a high probability that there were no Nascent Soul Cultivators there!

He should go to the nearby Huibao City instead!

Gu Changan rented a residence with a courtyard.

After checking and confirming there were no monitoring Formations,

he went directly to the inner room and sat on a meditation cushion.

First, he placed the three ordered items into the treasure gathering basin to copy and upgrade them.

He upgraded all three items to the level of top-grade magic artifacts.

These were to be distributed to his subordinates in the future!

Then he took out three more and continued to upgrade them to the level of top-grade Magic Treasures.

Gu Changan began to inspect the three items at the Magic Treasure level.

The mask had become more exquisite and tougher.

Gu Changan probed it and found that the Magic Treasure-level mask had gained an additional function of automatically concealing one's aura.

This meant that in a crowd, one could automatically ignore the person wearing the mask.

If one were surviving or fighting in the wild, concealing one's aura might just save one's life.

Gu Changan then observed the Magic Treasure-level bronze Token, which had gained a defensive shield.

It could automatically protect its master when they encountered danger, blocking one attack from a Golden Core Stage cultivator.

Gu Changan tried it casually; it couldn't block his own attacks.

He was relieved by this.

As for the final Magic Treasure-level bronze soul lamp, it surprisingly also gained an additional function.

It could monitor the life status of the soul lamp's owner at any time.

If they were injured, the soul lamp would weaken accordingly.

If they were in a normal, healthy state, the soul lamp would burn strongly.

After Gu Changan finished inspecting everything,

he waved his hand and dumped all the Black Slaves out of the spirit beast pouch.

18 Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators appeared in the room in a chaotic mess.

However, after most of them surveyed the environment, they all stood up silently.

Because they couldn't gauge Gu Changan's temperament.

Gu Changan was the one who held their fate in his hands.

As long as Gu Changan held their Divine Soul Tokens, their lives and deaths were all at the whim of his thoughts.
