the black line grew clearer, gradually revealing the outline of an island.Upon suddenly seeing this island, everyone's faces were filled with surprise.This island was much larger than they had imagine...Ning Youwei and his mother settled in comfortably.

Qin Sang alone rushed to Wuyagu, in Qingyangfang market, the value of items in the shop was not high, Qin Sang wasn't worried that Ning You and his mother would abscond with the money.

Although the Ebony Sword was reduced to a scabbard and unusable, Qin Sang's hands were not without body-protecting artifacts.

Qin Sang got Sun Xin's map and spent most of his time on the second level of Wuyah Valley, looking for trouble with monster beasts.

The second layer was seldom visited, and he acted cautiously, gradually adapting to the life of training in the boundless valley, much like the ancient fairy battlefield.

After a period of training, or when enough spiritual materials were gathered, he returned to Qingyang Fangshi and immersed himself in cultivation and the study of refining techniques. He pondered the contents of the jade slip.Finally, he put his understanding into practice on the ebony sword, with remarkable results. It significantly reduced the time it took for the ebony sword to absorb energy, and even strengthened the connection between him and the sword.

Although it will have some impact on cultivation, the harvest will be greater.

In the blink of an eye.

'Jian Ge' has been open for twenty-eight years, and it has even gained a small reputation in Qianyuanfang market. At first, the shop was very inconspicuous. It sold only inferior magic artifacts, and the clerks were taciturn. Most of the customers were cultivators below the sixth level of Qi refining.

Because the price is fair, it has also attracted some people.

As Qin Sang's skill in the art of refining weapons deepened, the grade of the artifacts on the shelves gradually improved, and other types of artifacts became increasingly scarce. Later on, most of them were various kinds of spirit swords.

The shop is full of swords, living up to its name "Jiange"!

As a result, the unique Jian Ge, standing out in the market, gradually became known and attracted many cultivators.

Many cultivators who come to the Qingyangfang Market will also take a detour to Jiange, to see if there are any new swords. Although it's not yet to the point of a frenzy, things sell well enough.

Even, when Qin Sang attempted to refine the Cold Gold into a spirit sword, improving its quality, a situation of supply and demand imbalance began to appear.

By then, Qin Sang had spent thirteen years in the Qingyangfang market. For thirteen years, he had never stopped learning about refining artifacts. Every time, he refined a large batch of low-quality magic tools for practice. He also had a certain success rate in refining high-quality magic tools. The small shop gradually turned from loss to profit, but it didn't earn much spirit stones.

Thanks to Qin Sang robbing Yu Hua's mustard seed bag, his assets were substantial enough to allow him to squander for such a long time.

But when he began to try and refine top-grade magic artifacts, he encountered a bottleneck.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

After several failed attempts at refining, Qin Sang was starting to feel the cost.

The spirit fire born from the stone was no longer enough to support the refining of a top-grade artifact. He had to pay a high price to rent the underground magma veins in the market.

Not all subterranean fire veins can be used for refining weapons and alchemy. It is necessary to select a place where the flames are stable, supplemented by various spirit arrays and restrictions to contain the fire vein.

It would be difficult for Qin Sang alone to find a suitable place.

These Spirit Stones, must be spent.

What pained Qin Sang even more was that each failure would waste a large amount of precious spiritual materials.

Saddened by his recent misfortunes, Qin Sang knew he couldn't continue acting so recklessly. He couldn't squander resources indefinitely. After much deliberation, Qin Sang decided to adopt a roundabout strategy.

Crafting a high-grade magical artifact and then supplementing it with various precious spiritual materials can enhance the quality of the spirit sword, making the difficulty slightly lower. After you're able to craft a spirit sword comparable to a top-grade artifact, accumulate enough experience before attempting it.

These experiences were all gained from the insights of Wu's ancestors.

For generations, the Wu family ancestors were experts in the art of refining weaponry. Due to their natural talent limitations, few could break through to become Foundation Establishment cultivators. It was precisely because of this that they resorted to these methods to enhance their skills in weapon refinement.

Thus, Qin Sang's gaze fell upon the piece of cold gold.

The refining of cold gold from the mother ore is one of Qin Sang's best spiritual materials, but it would be a waste to use it on low-quality artifacts.

For the ebony sword, Qin Sang disregarded all else. Even so, Qin Sang failed several times before gradually mastering the properties of cold gold.

>

Mixing cold gold into a weapon not only imparts extreme coldness to it, but also increases its durability. The same weapon, infused with cold gold, instantly becomes superior to others.

Someone found a magic weapon mixed with cold gold in Jian Ge. After the news spread, Jian Ge's reputation soared, and guests flocked there constantly.

More and more people are paying attention to Jiange, including some forces or merchant guilds.

It wouldn't be hard to guess that the owner of Jian Ge might be a weaponsmith based on the changes in the magical artifacts sold there over the past few years. To achieve such mastery in just over a decade, either they must possess exceptional talent or have a profound family lineage.

Some chambers of commerce tried to recruit the shopkeepers of Jiange, but unfortunately, the shopkeepers were like dragons - rarely seen. Few people had ever met them in person. They could only leave letters with the clerks, waiting for a response, but none were successful.

Even when Qin Sang was encountered, he was rejected.

At this point, Qin Sang realized he had gone too far. He hid his true identity under the guise of a weapon refiner, but he didn't want to attract the attention of major powers, otherwise, it might bring unforeseen variables.

At this juncture, Ning Yufu suggested purchasing magical artifacts from elsewhere at a low price and reselling them for a profit, or engaging in other businesses to sustain the store's operations.

Now Ning Youwei is a middle-aged man in his forties, with a goatee.

He was stuck at the fourth layer of the Qi Refining Stage, had long since given up on cultivating immortality. He married and had children, supported his aging mother until her death, and lived a peaceful life, indistinguishable from ordinary people in the market.

Qin Sang could only refine a batch of magic weapons after returning from his training. The shop's business was too good, and it would soon be sold out. At other times, he could only close the shop, so Ning Youwei came up with this idea.

For over a decade, Ning Youwei has diligently worked for Qin Sang. He is meticulous and experienced, never making a mistake.

Qin Sang didn't care about the shop and, after deciding to leave, gave it to Ning Youwei. Then he followed him away.

>

Over the next few years, Qin Sang rarely refined low-grade spirit swords, focusing instead on comprehending the jade slips.

His high-quality spiritual swords were not sold in the Jiange, but instead were given to several friendly and enthusiastic merchant guilds. He himself remained hidden behind the scenes.

It's better to have the power in your own hands and be able to make your own decisions, even if it takes some time to settle things down.

It's the regular customers who are most heartbroken. They are unwilling to accept this, and frequently came to the shop. Now that they haven't seen Lingjian for a long time, they are deeply disappointed and begin to speculate that the blacksmith behind the shop might have already left the market and gone wandering the world.

The former glory of Jian Ge, like a fleeting blossom, existed for only a few years before fading into obscurity, leaving people with a sense of regret.

As his cultivation deepened, Qin Sang finally forged a top-grade magic artifact!

The success rate was still not high, but the harvest was huge. Qin Sang finally understood the words of the Golden Core cultivator from the Xu Ling School in Yu Jian.

Just in the twenty-first year he came to Qingyangfang market, the烏木劍 successfully devoured the 無間血桑!

Subsequently, Qin Sang refined the Blood-Dripping Ghost Mushroom and the Qi Gathering Pill. The third killing talisman was formed, and his cultivation level naturally reached the later stage of foundation establishment! they were all powerful demons who had transformed into human form, and their auras were all suppressed at the Jindan stage.Even the dumbest person could tell there was something fishy going on here.W...
