Cultivating immortality begins with discerning the secrets of heaven.

The earth's vein fire in the Cangxuan Domain is flourishing, and metal and wood elements are sprouting, making it ideal for alchemy and weapon crafting.

The Lin family obtained the mining rights to the Purple-Patterned Copper Mine from the Taiyuan Sect.

The Zhong family runs a puppet shop in Zhongling Market, with Zhao Qing as the resident puppeteer.

In the Eastern Region of Cangxuan, several Foundation Establishment cultivators who joined forces to explore the Divine Wind Gorge perished.

In the frigid north, a blizzard, the likes of which are seen only once every millennium, is gathering.

Ling Xuanji searched diligently for a whole year but failed to find Tuoba Ye's cave dwelling, and had no choice but to return to the Northern Region of Cangxuan with regret.

"After waiting for so long, the mining rights for the purple-veined copper mine that the family has been seeking have finally been granted."

Looking at the above information, Lin Yun took a deep breath.

Today is the last lesson Master Mo will give them. After this lesson, these nominal disciples will be considered to have graduated.

Whether you learn well or poorly, after today you will have nothing to do with Master Mo.

"Let's go and see what Master Mo will impart in this last lesson."

This time, even Chen Guan, a disciple who was usually absent, came.

To Lin Yun's surprise, Chen Guan's aura had grown even stronger, not far from the sixth level of Qi Refining.

"As expected of a Core Formation expert who has possessed another body to cultivate again, his cultivation speed is truly beyond the reach of others."

"I really don't know what this guy is doing here trying to learn about weapon crafting. By the time of the Ascension Ceremony, he should have already advanced to the sixth level of Qi Refining."

Lin Yun muttered to himself, thinking that with his abilities, even without pursuing the path of weapon crafting, he could easily stand out in the Ascension Tournament, and even strive for a top ten ranking. Obtaining a Foundation Establishment Pill shouldn't be too difficult.

Unable to figure out what this Core Formation expert was thinking, Lin Yun shook his head, clearing his mind of the jumbled thoughts.

All the disciples gathered outside Master Mo's cave. Soon, the restrictions were lifted, and an aged voice rang out:

"Come in."

Upon entering the cave, one sees a pile of various jade stones placed in front of Master Mo.

"In this final lesson, I will demonstrate how to forge a high-grade magical artifact for you."

Whether you can learn anything from it depends on your own fate.

Upon hearing this, many disciples showed surprise on their faces.

"A superior magical artifact..."

"Hiss, a high-grade magic weapon would sell for at least six or seven hundred spirit stones. If it were put at an auction, it wouldn't be surprising if it sold for over a thousand spirit stones."

"Master Mo, won't watching from here interfere with your weapon forging?"

Master Mo glanced coldly at his disciples and said, "Your noise is bound to have an impact."

"Next, I will set up a restriction when I forge the weapon. If you don't want to live, you can try to bypass the restriction."

After saying that, Master Mo set up several densely packed killing intent barriers in front of him, causing all the disciples to sit obediently in place, unable to move.

After doing all this, he stopped wasting time and began the weapon forging process.

Master Mo skillfully swept his hand across the table, and pieces of jade flew up and landed in the furnace in front of him.

boom!

This forge is connected to the earth's vein fire of Fire Cloud Valley, and a scorching aura suddenly bursts forth.

Once Master Mo entered the weapon-refining state, he was like a completely different person. His movements were extremely precise, and every step was swift and flawless.

After the jade had been tempered in the furnace for a period of time, Master Mo took it all out and then used a sharp carving knife to carve and polish it.

"What kind of magical artifact are they forging?" someone asked curiously.

"I can't tell..."

Soon, everyone fell silent, their attention completely drawn to Master Mo's next, incredibly skillful move.

Master Mo's hands moved so fast they were almost blurry. In his hands, seven pieces of jade of different colors were actually carved into a jade pagoda!

Some people didn't even see his movements clearly!

hum!

The moment the jade pagoda took shape, a soft light shone forth, and each layer fit together tightly.

The prototype of a high-grade magic weapon was thus forged.

Master Mo did not stop and immediately began to temper his spirit and refine his nature.

He stroked the tower repeatedly, and each time a stream of pure spiritual energy was injected into the jade tower.

This tempering and refining of spirit and nature took a long time, lasting a full day and night.

Many of the disciples watching looked tired, but Master Mo remained incredibly focused, as if everything was just beginning.

As Master Mo's hand touched the spire of the jade pagoda for the last time, the entire pagoda emitted a dazzling and radiant spiritual light.

The spirituality contained within it remains extremely abundant!

Master Mo did not provide any explanation throughout the entire process.

Because this was the refining of a high-grade magic weapon, even he dared not be distracted and naturally had no time to teach these nominal disciples.

After completing the tempering and refining of his spirit, Master Mo took two pills to restore his mana, and then immediately began to inscribe spirit runes.

He had long conceived of this jade pagoda, and even planned out what kind of spiritual runes should be engraved on it.

Before long, his fingertips landed on the bottom of the tower, and mysterious and intricate patterns spread out.

However, to everyone's surprise, Master Mo finally failed this time!

boom!

The spiritual patterns had barely begun to emerge when they collapsed and dissipated in an instant, along with the jade pagoda, which also lost some of its spiritual power.

This scene caused many people to feel a pang of heartache.

You have to understand that it was the prototype of a high-grade magic weapon. If it were destroyed like this, it would be equivalent to throwing away hundreds of spirit stones!

Master Mo paid no attention to this and continued to try to inscribe the spirit runes.

Failure! Failure! Failure!

After several failures, the spiritual essence of this jade pagoda has been significantly diminished.

Finally, Master Mo tapped his fingers across the surface of the jade pagoda, attempting to inscribe spiritual patterns from the top of the pagoda to connect the seven layers of the pagoda.

Unfortunately, it still failed!

Boom!

As the spirit patterns dissipated and collapsed, the entire jade pagoda shattered, turning into jade dust scattered on the ground.

The cave fell silent. All the disciples remained seated, not uttering a word.

A top-grade magical artifact, just like that, ruined?!

After a long silence, Master Mo sighed and shook his head, saying:

"I failed. As you can see, even I, an old man, can fail when it comes to forging weapons."

"However, failure is perfectly normal when it comes to weapon crafting."

"You have a long road ahead of you. Don't let a few failures make you lose your spirit."

With that, Master Mo waved his hand and released the restriction in front of him.

"That's all I can teach you. I hope that some of you will go further than I have in the art of weapon crafting."

Two years of apprenticeship ended with a failed weapon-forging demonstration.

However, this scene today left an extremely deep impression on everyone's mind. Even Chen Guan, who was once a Core Formation stage cultivator, showed a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"Thank you very much, Master Mo!"

All the disciples bowed deeply in unison, bidding farewell to their two-year apprenticeship.
