Eternal Life Starts as a Hunter-Chapter 334 - 133: Bewildering and Mysterious, Successful Forging of a Spiritual Artifact, First Bucket of Gold (Super - )
Li Yuan went to sleep at Cui Huayin’s place.
But Cui Huayin was always cold, no matter what Li Yuan did, she maintained a high and cold demeanor, without much extra emotion, and even when Li Yuan was too fierce, she would only frown and endure.
It was only until Li Yuan finished that she said softly, "Come again tomorrow, let Yaojue accompany you. That maid follows me; wherever I go, she goes. Since I married you, she naturally needs to accompany you."
Li Yuan gently embraced her from behind and said, "Father-in-law..."
Cui Huayin looked at the outlines of the furniture in the dark ahead and said, "He has an heir now and is leaving to avenge his wife. You should have known about my family matters long ago, right?"
Li Yuan nodded.
Cui Huayin said, "I won’t ask you to avenge me, you don’t need to give me the letter he wrote."
Li Yuan asked curiously, "You know he wrote a letter?"
Cui Huayin said calmly, "I could guess it."
Li Yuan: ...
He changed the topic and said, "Now I’m thinking about when I can forge my first Spiritual Artifact."
Cui Huayin didn’t seem to follow his words but gently closed her eyes, her long eyelashes covering her quiet gaze. She shifted slightly in Li Yuan’s arms and fell asleep.
...
...
Early next morning.
An uninvited guest arrived at Li Yuan’s residence.
This was an Elder from the Jing Family.
The Elder requested to see Li Yuan and Lady Li.
Soon, the three sat facing each other.
The Jing Family Elder was full of smiles, then took out an aromatic wood box from his side, and said excitedly, "Back then, a beast emerged from my Jing Family, we only recently discovered his past actions.
Just because of this child, he caused division in our Divine Wood Hall, and his sin deserves a thousand deaths! He should die!"
Cui Huayin watched his performance.
But in the next moment, the Jing Family Elder opened the aromatic wood box, revealing Jing Yunhe’s head, and only then did Cui Huayin show a look of astonishment.
The Elder continued to smile apologetically and ask for forgiveness, and after a long while, left with the box.
...
Afterwards, this Elder appeared at the Cui Family, offering apologies.
Then, messages were sent out from the Garden Tianfu, stating, in essence: Master Zhu, the Jing Family has realized their mistake, the person from back then has been killed, please come back.
A couple of days later, these messages added: Master Zhu, if you feel anyone from the Jing Family needs to make amends, just say so. As long as they have truly committed heartless deeds, the Jing Family will not be lenient.
...
When it rains, it pours.
At the end of June, just over twenty days after Li Yuan’s grand wedding, he received his first "Spiritual Artifact order."
The order came from the Hall Master.
The Hall Master wanted him to craft the simplest paperweight Spiritual Artifact.
The Hall Master provided the materials and a forging fee of a thousand taels of Blood Gold, while the Source Blood was provided by a Fifth Grade Elder from the Mu Family.
This "Mu Family" is a large family close to Gu Xuejian, with members who travel around eradicating evil, known for their heroism, having protected one village and town after another, saving countless people.
And this "Mu Hua," Li Yuan had met him in Jiangbei Prefecture.
However, "Mu Hua’s" position in the "Mu Family" was amongst the higher-ups but not at the top, as he was only Sixth Grade.
Li Yuan took out the page his father-in-law had written to him and read it over and over.
Written on the paper:...
Beware of the Hall Master!
But he could not refuse.
Therefore, he made extremely secure arrangements for his family, even the Cui Family Ancestor, Cui Wuji, personally came to act as a bodyguard to prevent the incident from Master Zhu’s time from happening again.
Thus... Li Yuan agreed.
Time passed day by day.
The day of the forging arrived.
Li Yuan opened the furnace in the Weapon Casting Hall of the Cui Family, with Blood Crystal Marrow placed beside him, along with a drop of "Source Blood" contained in a Jade Box, which the Mu Family Elder had dripped in front of him, and Li Yuan could feel the immense energy contained within this blood.
Then, he took a deep breath and began the forging.
Time passed without him knowing...
Maybe two or three days,
Maybe more than ten days.
Whenever he was hungry, Li Yuan ate Grain Avoidance Pills, then sat quietly by the furnace waiting.
He was adjusting his state.
This is also a small technique for Weapon Forgers when crafting Spiritual Artifacts.
First, get into the state, then forge, completing it in One Breath once finding the touch.
And on this day, Li Yuan finally found the touch.
At this moment, he was disheveled, his eyes focused intently on the red of the furnace, then took the rare Blood Crystal Marrow to begin melting, added some pre-measured extra metals, and finally opened the box to pour in that drop of Source Blood.
The young man swung the hammer as if instilling his soul and entire state with each strike...
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
The hammer struck the Spirit Embryo with not a hint of margin for error.
Li Yuan felt as if he were walking on a tightrope.
A long while...
And longer still...
The people waiting anxiously outside finally saw the doors open.
The young man, bare-chested, walked out and shouted, "Invite Elder Mu, tell him the Spiritual Artifact is completed."
The people outside cheered...
