Chapter 1321 Genius and Double System 22
"She said she had news of the Cloud Star Stone and asked when the Peak Master would have time. She sounded very certain, so she probably really does have the Cloud Star Stone," said the handyman disciple, while observing Mo Wuchen's expression.
There was no excitement as I had imagined; in fact, my face was full of confusion.
"Does the Peak Master not intend to talk to her?" asked a servant disciple.
Mo Wuchen gently shook his head: "Let me think about it."
The handyman disciple didn't dare say anything more and withdrew. However, when he reached the door, he remembered something and said, "Senior Sister Yun came over just now and went straight for those finished magic weapons. She said she planned to exchange the materials she had for some good magic weapons."
Because the materials Senior Sister Yun brought out last time were quite good and even attracted the Peak Master, he mentioned it again.
What if the Peak Master is interested in any of the materials that Senior Sister Yun has brought out this time?
"Okay, I understand." Mo Wuchen wasn't particularly excited; the news about the Cloud Star Stone left him feeling somewhat helpless.
If Lin Ya really has the Cloud Star Stone, it's not a good thing for him.
Now that he had found the whereabouts of the Cloud Star Stone, it wouldn't be right for him not to ask about it. This was the Cloud Star Stone he had been searching for for a long time, and he was just missing this material.
He'd think about it for two more days, then talk to Lin Ya and see what her conditions were. If she wanted any magical artifacts, that was no problem at all; that was exactly what he was good at. However, given Lin Ya's past attitude, he had a feeling this wouldn't go too smoothly.
Meanwhile, in the other refining room, Azhen had already started crafting some small items. She chose to refine a protective jade pendant first, and without even assembling it, she succeeded on her first try. After all, the client was a genius, and it's normal for a genius to ignite another skill, right?
The disciple who had been talking to Azhen was taken aback and quickly approached Azhen, asking, "Senior Sister Yun, you succeeded?"
"It should be a success," Azhen said, with a simple jade pendant in front of her. She picked it up, tossed it into the air, and then sent a burst of spiritual energy through it. Ripples spread across the jade pendant, clearly forming a protective shield.
"It really worked! Senior Sister Yun, how much of your strength did you use just now?" the disciple asked excitedly.
(Thinking to himself:) Could it be that Senior Sister Yun is a genius at weapon crafting?
He quickly calmed down, and it didn't seem strange. After all, Senior Sister Yun's cultivation talent was top-notch, and she had a mutated lightning spiritual root, so it was quite normal for her to have talent in weapon crafting.
"That strike must have had the power of a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator," Azhen said. She knew the level of the magic weapon she had crafted, of course. Apart from the issue of materials, she had also deliberately controlled the quality to achieve a level that was astonishing, but not terrifying.
Amidst the disciple's astonished gaze, Azhen took advantage of the remaining time to continue "learning" weapon crafting.
The commotion she caused here had already reached Mo Wuchen's ears from the servant disciples.
"This is the jade pendant that Senior Sister Yun made. She just threw it there casually, and it didn't seem to care much about it, so I asked her for one. Peak Master, what do you think of the quality?" The handyman disciple handed a protective jade pendant to Mo Wuchen.
Mo Wuchen picked up the jade pendant and tried it on, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Is Yun Zhen's talent for weapon crafting really that amazing?
He also succeeded in refining weapons on his first try, but he wasn't as skilled or perfect as Yun Zhen.
It took him almost a month to learn how to make a protective jade pendant of this quality.
Unfortunately, when Yunzhen entered the sect, her master had already ascended to heaven. If he were still alive, he would surely have taken her as his disciple upon seeing someone with such talent in weapon crafting.
Mo Wuchen had already stood up; he intended to go over and have a chat with Yun Zhen.
Since the other party has such talent, it would be a waste not to learn weapon crafting.
If you're already this good after just one lesson, what will you be like after you've studied for a while?
Whether it's the sect's weapon-refining books or the insights left by his master, he believes that having another exceptionally talented person to learn from them will prevent them from being buried.
If Yunzhen is willing, he can take on a disciple for his master.
Before the handyman disciples could react, Mo Wuchen had already disappeared. Knowing exactly where he had gone, they quickly gave chase.
When Mo Wuchen arrived, Azhen was crafting a hairpin.
This was prepared for Ling Fang. After all, she was someone who wholeheartedly followed the client, so giving her a little something extra was only fair. Her weapon-refining skills couldn't be improved overnight, so she'd start with something low-grade but aesthetically pleasing. Ling Fang wouldn't dislike something like a hairpin.
The weapon-refining room was quiet. The disciples who had come to learn weapon-refining were all holding their breath and watching Azhen refine weapons, having long lost any desire to try it themselves.
Therefore, when Mo Wuchen arrived, few people noticed him. Even those who did notice didn't say anything, but simply bowed to him as a greeting and continued watching Azhen refine the weapon.
Because this was for Lingfang, Azhen put more thought into it and spent more time on it.
An hour passed before the hairpin was finished.
Seeing her complete the task, everyone in the weapon-refining room breathed a sigh of relief and offered their congratulations. Their faces were filled with envy, and they showered her with praise, as if they could already see the future weapon-refining master.
"Senior Sister Yun, this hairpin of yours is so special. If I have good materials, can I ask you to refine it?" a female cultivator said, her eyes fixed on the hairpin in Azhen's hand, her face full of desire.
Azhen smiled and said, "Sure, but in a few days I will be preparing to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. You can come find me before tomorrow if you have all the materials ready. If it's not much, I can refine it before I go into seclusion. If it's a large quantity, I'll probably have to wait until after I come out of seclusion."
"No rush. It's already very kind of Senior Sister Yun to be able to help. I can wait."
Many people present had the same idea, but fortunately there weren't many.
"May I take a look at your hairpin?" Mo Wuchen's voice rang out. He had appeared beside Azhen without her noticing, his eyes fixed on the hairpin in her hand, completely oblivious to everything else.
Azhen turned her head and handed the hairpin to Mo Wuchen.
Mo Wuchen took it and examined it carefully for a long time, his face filled with amazement and admiration.
It's truly hard to believe that Yunzhen, who only started learning weapon crafting today, could already create such a fine hairpin.
After returning the hairpin to Azhen, he said earnestly, "Yunzhen, you are so talented. Do you want to learn weapon crafting? There are countless weapon crafting books in the sect, and my master has left behind many insights. I believe that after reading these, you will soon become a top-notch weapon crafter."
“If you are willing, and if Peak Master Ji doesn’t object, I can accept you as my disciple on behalf of my master.” Mo Wuchen said, still looking a little embarrassed. “If you are not willing, I can show you these things. Anyway, you are a disciple of the same sect, so my master shouldn’t object.”
On the way here, he had already prepared his explanation. No matter what, he was determined to make Yunzhen learn the insights his master had left behind.
She truly has a talent for weapon crafting, even more so than for cultivation.
"Peak Master Mo, let me think about it. I'll go back and discuss it with my master first," Azhen said. With Mo Wuchen's words, she had achieved her goal for coming today. In order to prepare defensive magic treasures for Ling Fang and Ji Wujiu, she had to make her weapon-refining talent legitimate.
“Okay, you can come find me anytime.” Mo Wuchen was delighted. “You can also ask me if you don’t understand anything.”
“My master doesn’t have any rules for accepting disciples; you can just learn weapon crafting,” he added.
Now that Master has ascended to immortality, Peak Master Ji shouldn't mind too much, right?
A-Zhuang found it amusing. After chatting with Mo Wuchen for a couple more minutes, she left Lianhuo Peak.
I never expected that today's trip would yield another reward.
After Azhen left, news of her top-tier talent in weapon crafting spread throughout the sect.
Upon learning this, Lin Ya's expression twisted in disbelief: "Yun Zhen's life is truly blessed. Born a princess, with top-tier cultivation talent, and now top-tier weapon-refining talent—how come all the good things happen to her?"
[If the host also desires the talent for weapon crafting, they can bind themselves to Mo Wuchen. He is likely the only top-tier weapon crafter in the cultivation world that the host can bind to.]
It's because Mo Wuchen is talented enough, but too young, and his cultivation level hasn't reached a certain point yet. If his cultivation level were higher, the host wouldn't be able to bind with him. (End of Chapter)
