Chapter 1

Ding ding dang, ding ding dang dang!

Hiss!

Inside a small refining room on Mount Maoshan, a young boy was diligently hammering the materials.

Then, he quenched the hammered materials, and a sword-shaped magical artifact prototype was officially forged.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, the boy let out a light breath.

Holding the newly forged sword-shaped magical artifact prototype in his hand, the boy pushed open the door of the refining room.

"Uncle Master, have you successfully refined the magical artifact?"

As soon as the boy pushed the door open, the man who had been waiting outside for a long time immediately asked.

This scene was somewhat peculiar.

A man at least in his thirties called a young boy "Uncle Master."

However, the boy was used to it and directly handed the magical artifact to the other party.

"It has been successfully refined. The rest is up to you to cultivate it."

"Thank you, Uncle Master, thank you, Uncle Master."

"Alright, I'm a bit tired now and need to rest."

"In that case, I won't disturb you anymore. Goodbye, Uncle Master."

After saying this, the middle-aged man left the place directly.

Watching him leave, the boy walked towards the small house next to the refining room.

This boy was naturally the protagonist, Wang Chen.

Eighteen years ago, he was a citizen of Huaguo on Blue Star.

Just after graduating from university and preparing to look for a job,

He was hit by a失控的汽车 on a zebra crossing and then there was nothing after that.

He had been transported to this world.

Although the history here was similar to that of the Blue Star from his previous life, there were also some very significant differences.

For example, cultivation!!

Here, it was truly possible to gain some special abilities through cultivation.

Even reaching a high level of cultivation could extend one's lifespan.

When Wang Chen had just been transported here, he had become an abandoned infant.

If it weren't for his current master, who had unexpectedly passed by and adopted him,

Wang Chen might have become the first person to die immediately after being transported.

After being brought back to Mount Maoshan by his master, Duobao Daoren, Wang Chen grew up on Mount Maoshan.

At the age of six, under the guidance of his master Duobao, he officially embarked on the path of cultivation.

Mount Maoshan was a large and prosperous place, divided into a hundred branches.

The refining branch where Wang Chen was located was also quite famous on Mount Maoshan.

However, it was not very prosperous.

The entire refining branch, apart from Wang Chen, only had his master Duobao.

In other words, the entire refining branch of Mount Maoshan now had only two people left.

And they were one old and one young.

Wang Chen was only eighteen years old, while his master Duobao was already eighty.

It was clear that the refining branch was indeed not doing well.

However, this was quite normal.

Because the greatest ability of the refining branch was to refine magical artifacts.

For ordinary cultivators, they could refine ordinary magical artifacts themselves, and there was no need to specifically hire someone to refine them.

Although more special magical artifacts indeed required specialized refining masters to refine them,

For ordinary people, they might not even have the ability to collect the materials needed to refine special magical artifacts.

Most of the good materials in the world had already been collected by those senior experts.

Those seniors were like pi xiu, only taking in and never giving out.

As a result, most of the refining masters in the world had very few good materials.

For other refining masters, not having good materials only meant they couldn't refine top-tier magical artifacts.

It did not affect their own cultivation at all.

However, for the refining branch of Mount Maoshan, this was a huge blow.

Because the refining branch of Mount Maoshan cultivated the gongfa passed down by the founding ancestor of the branch.

This gongfa was inspired by the life-bound magical swords of sword cultivators and combined with the Daoist techniques of Mount Maoshan to create a new cultivation method.

The greatest feature of the Duobao Jue was the ability to cultivate life-bound magical artifacts.

Cultivating life-bound magical artifacts was not as extreme as for sword cultivators, and it was possible to cultivate multiple life-bound magical artifacts.

Each time one's cultivation level broke through a major stage, they could add another life-bound magical artifact.

The stronger and more numerous the life-bound magical artifacts, the faster their cultivation speed would be.

If they did not have life-bound magical artifacts or if their life-bound magical artifacts were not powerful enough, their cultivation progress would be greatly slowed down.

While ordinary people might only need three to five years to break through a level, they might need ten or even more years.

Therefore, the lack of top-tier refining materials was also a reason for the decline of the refining branch of Mount Maoshan.

From the most prosperous branch that could rival the patriarch's branch, it had now declined to only two people remaining.

The greatest wish of his master Duobao was to develop and strengthen the refining branch of Mount Maoshan.

Unfortunately, this was almost an impossible task.

After all, the cost of taking on disciples for this branch was indeed quite high.

It was necessary to prepare the first life-bound magical artifact for one's disciple to cultivate.

In this era, the difficulty was indeed much greater.

However, for Wang Chen, this was not really a big problem.

The reason he said this was because he had a must-have cheat for a person from another world.

After returning to his small house, Wang Chen also summoned his cheat.

Life-bound Magical Artifacts: Vitality Pearl, Eight Trigram Refining Furnace, Thunderstruck Peach Wood Sword, Black Tortoise Shield.

After carefully examining his attribute panel, Wang Chen also prepared to rest.

This time, helping a fellow disciple from Mount Maoshan refine a special magical artifact had been very draining of his mental energy.

Even though it was just a prototype of a magical artifact, the consumption was even greater than refining a formal magical artifact.

Fortunately, Wang Chen's own strength was quite good, and he was already a skilled practitioner at the Qi Condensation Ninth Layer.

Moreover, the cheat he possessed also reduced the difficulty of refining.

Otherwise, Wang Chen would not have accepted this commission.

Fortunately, completing this commission had its benefits.

A special material with lightning attributes.

This was incredibly attractive to Wang Chen.

With this material, Wang Chen could use it as the main material to refine a top-tier lightning attribute magical artifact.
