Nuwa, the goddess of immortality, said that cultivating immortality does not require spiritual energ

Upon returning to the academy, Lu Qingshuang took the collected Taiyin Star Core and hurriedly went into seclusion to cultivate.

Her eagerness to collect the Taiyin Star Core was not for that awkward, exclusive dual cultivation technique, but for cultivating another divine power taught by the Fairy Chang'e—Moon Essence.

This supernatural power is extraordinary, but to cultivate it to its perfect state, it must be tempered with the pure power of Taiyin.

There are two ways: one is to go to the Taiyin Star in person and cultivate in its original place; the other is to use a star core containing abundant Taiyin power for assistance.

Lu Qingshuang naturally couldn't stay on Taiyin Star for long, so she chose the latter.

In fact, it's not that the fairy Chang'e didn't prepare a star core for her; it's just that it would take at least half a month to send it from the heavens to the mortal realm.

Lu Qingshuang couldn't wait any longer and decided to make the trip herself. Originally, she only planned to collect a small amount to get through the two-week gap, but with the help of Qin Le and her demon classmates, the harvest far exceeded her expectations, which was a pleasant surprise.

Watching Lu Qingshuang thank him and leave in a hurry, Qin Le didn't say anything more and turned to walk towards Chen Yun's weapon-refining workshop.

I had promised to give Chen Yun two more Seeds of Law, but I was delayed for several days because of my trip to Taiyin Star. Although I explained the situation to him on my phone beforehand, I still need to fulfill my promise as soon as possible.

Upon entering the weapon-refining workshop, one sees Chen Yun hunched over a huge workbench, sketching and writing on several spread-out blueprints.

The drawings are crisscrossed with lines, marking the dense patterns of spirit runes and the parameters of the parts.

"Oh, you're back?"

Noticing someone enter, Chen Yun greeted them without looking up, his pen still moving rapidly across the drawing.

"Yeah, just got back." Qin Le walked closer, glancing at the other blueprints piled up beside him, which depicted various parts. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Are you... designing a flying artifact for me? It requires so many parts?"

Chen Yun then stopped writing, looked up, and gave a mysterious smile: "Qin Le, do you think flying magical artifacts... can only have one form?"

"You mean... you want to make something that can transform?" Qin Le raised an eyebrow.

"Of course!" Chen Yun nodded matter-of-factly, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "If it only looks the same, you'll get tired of it after a while. It has to be able to change, and it has to be creative!"

Ever since Qin Le made the request that he be handsome, Chen Yun has been struggling with which style of handsomeness would be more suitable.

A futuristic, streamlined design?

The ancient and grand style of the cultivation of immortality?

After agonizing for two days, he made a decision that adults wanted it all—to design a flying artifact that could change its form at will!

"Alright, take your time designing, I won't rush you." Qin Le smiled. He always respected the judgment of professionals in such specialized fields. "By the way, is the 'box' for the Seed of Law finished?"

"It's already taken care of!"

Chen Yun readily took out two upgraded Ghost Craft Balls, exactly the same size as the previous ones and about the same size as a human head, from his storage ring and casually tossed them to Qin Le.

Having had successful experience before, it becomes much easier to do it again.

Qin Le took the Ghostly Crafting Ball, and with a slight thought, two seeds, each containing fluctuations of the laws of time and space, silently merged into it. He then handed the processed Ghostly Crafting Ball back to Chen Yun.

"Here you go. By the way, has your 'Truth' been upgraded recently?" Qin Le asked casually.

The Truth that was tested last time already had the power of an early-stage Celestial Immortal. Given Chen Yun's dedication to research, he should have made further progress after all this time.

Chen Yun put away the Ghostly Crafting Ball and shrugged upon hearing this: "Theoretically, it's been upgraded once, so its power should be around that of a mid-stage Celestial Immortal. However... I haven't tested its detonation yet."

"Oh? This isn't like you." Qin Le looked at him with some surprise.

Given Chen Yun's past habits, he would be eager to take out something new and test it out immediately to see the effect.

"The main problem is..." Chen Yun scratched his head, a hint of helplessness on his face: "I feel like I haven't fully grasped the power of the laws yet. Even if I stack up the power of 'Truth' now, I still can't unleash the true effects of the laws. Besides, before reaching the Golden Immortal level, it doesn't seem to make much sense to try and unleash it."

He had a premonition that only when he fully comprehended and mastered the core mysteries of the power of the laws, and then upgraded to Truth, could he truly touch the threshold of the power of the Golden Immortal level.

It's still a bit short of perfection.

"Alright, then you can continue your research." Qin Le nodded, preparing to take his leave: "I'm going now."

"Wait, don't go yet!" Chen Yun quickly called out to him, his face showing a mixture of distress and anticipation: "There's something else I need your help with."

"What is it?" Qin Le stopped in his tracks.

Chen Yun picked up the simple, heavy-looking black hammer from the worktable—the very one Qin Le had brought back from Chi You's former residence:

"Here's the thing, recently when I was using this hammer to forge weapons, a scene suddenly appeared in my mind... It seems to be a weapon-forging method left behind by the great Chi You. But..."

He looked distressed. "I don't understand it at all! I'm completely lost! You're so perceptive, could you help me figure it out?"

"This hammer... contains a method of weapon crafting?" Qin Le was genuinely surprised.

This hammer had been in his hands for quite some time, but he hadn't received any inheritance from it.

"I was surprised too." Chen Yun also looked puzzled. "But it really happened. The problem is, that method is completely different from the current way of refining weapons. I'm totally confused."

Just yesterday, as he was using this hammer to work on a piece of material, his mind seemed to be drawn into an ancient image:

In the scene, the imposing Chi You holds this hammer and silently strikes a strange, red-hot metal that Chen Yun does not recognize at all.

The movements are simple and repetitive, seemingly no different from those of an ordinary blacksmith forging iron.

However, it was this seemingly simple hammering that ultimately forged the metal into a large sword.

What shocked Chen Yun even more was that when the knife was formed, it was not engraved with any spiritual patterns. It could easily cut through space and time simply by the sharpness it exuded!

This completely overturned Chen Yun's understanding of weapon crafting.

The core of modern weapon crafting lies in material processing, array construction, and spirit rune inscription.

Chi You's method, however, seemed to return to simplicity, integrating all the great principles into the most basic hammering and forging.

If you can learn this skill, your weapon crafting efficiency will increase by more than several times.

After all, the most time-consuming part right now is the intricate and detailed spirit rune inscription.

"But I don't know how myself," Qin Le said, shrugging. "How can I teach you without receiving the instruction?"

"Can't you... contact the great Chi You?" Chen Yun's eyes lit up with anticipation. "Could you ask him for me? Or... see if you can 'sneak' some insights?"

Qin Le looked at his inquisitive eyes and smiled: "Alright, I'll give it a try."

As soon as he finished speaking, without even needing to actively communicate with Nuwa in his sea of ​​consciousness, a clear and profound image immediately appeared in his mind—the scene of Chi You silently forging iron.

Clearly, Nuwa was watching closely and provided timely assistance from outside the field.

After quietly watching this scene of inheritance, Qin Le understood.

He understood why Chen Yun couldn't understand it.

Chi You's method of weapon forging is completely different from the mainstream method today.
