Battle Through the Heavens: The Inner Struggle of Cultivation Brings Xiao Yan to Tears

The contents include not only metal materials, but also monster materials, ores, special plants, and more.

These are the basic materials for refining weapons.

These materials are quite common on the Dou Qi Continent.

However, because there is no weapon-refining tradition in the Dou Qi Continent.

Therefore, very few people need these materials.

It would be very difficult for Xiao Yang to buy it directly.

He planned to have the people at Mittel Auction House collect them directly, and he would just pay for them.

He hardly ever used his gold coins.

At Xiao Yang's current alchemy speed, he's practically a human money-printing machine.

He could never be short of money.

Anything that can be solved with money is easy to handle.

Looking at the materials on the paper, Ya Fei couldn't help but frown.

Indeed, many of the materials on this are common.

However, very few people buy these.

Therefore, even auction houses don't have any stock.

“Brother Xiao Yang, it may take some time to collect all these materials.”

"Our auction house currently only has a small portion of the materials."

Xiao Yang waved his hand and said with a smile.

"It's alright, I'll take as many as you have."

The materials he listed were merely the basic materials for refining weapons.

He was just planning to collect these materials as soon as possible.

If he can find it, great; if not, even a small portion will be enough for him to practice.

"Okay, I'll go and get someone to bring you what you need."

Upon hearing this, Consort Ya nodded, said something to the others, and then went outside to give a few instructions to the maid.

After returning, the group chatted casually.

Soon, some people from the auction house brought over the materials that Xiao Yang needed.

Although Xiao Yang bought only low-grade and common materials.

However, because of the large number.

Therefore, these materials are worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins.

"How does Xiao Yang plan to pay?"

"Should we use gold coins or pills?"

When the topic of elixirs came up, a hint of anticipation flashed in Ya Fei's eyes.

It would be even better if Xiao Yang could pay with pills.

In this way, she can not only get the sales from this big order, but also the credit for collecting the elixir.

However, while Xiao Yang had no shortage of pills, gold coins were even less useful to him.

With a wave of his hand, a pile of gold coins appeared in front of them.

He had a lot of gold coins in his storage ring, so he took this opportunity to clean them out.

"Send someone to count them."

The others, except for Little Fairy Doctor, were all taken aback by Xiao Yang's move.

Who is this kind-hearted person carrying so many gold coins?

Normally, they come with gold coin cards.

However, Xiao Yang was covered in gold coins!

These were actually the gold coins Xiao Yang obtained from the Blazing Bear Cave, the Cliff Chamber, and the Sand Mercenary Group.

Looking at the large amount of gold coins in front of her, Ya Fei's lips twitched involuntarily.

However, she couldn't refuse.

Soon, she summoned some maids to count the gold coins.

Looking at the busy maids beside her, Consort Ya's eyes were filled with resentment.

However, Xiao Yang seemed not to have seen it.

He categorized and stored all the basic materials into his storage ring.

It took the maids quite a while to finish counting the gold coins.

Seeing this, Xiao Yang and the others left.

Before leaving, Xiao Yang asked Ya Fei to help him collect more materials he needed.

Afterwards, the group strolled around the market for a while before returning to the Xiao family home.

After returning home, Xiao Yang and Little Fairy Doctor cultivated together for a while, until Little Fairy Doctor begged for mercy repeatedly before he let her go.

Seeing the little fairy doctor sleeping soundly, Xiao Yang got up and went to the courtyard.

He took out the "Basic Artifact Patterns" book, which he hadn't read before, from the system space.

Xiao Yang did not hesitate and immediately began the reward mission.

[Task: Learn one basic artifact rune. Reward: Artifact Rune Proficiency +1, one piece of refined iron.]

Xiao Yang raised an eyebrow as he looked at the mission details.

Unexpectedly, learning just one type of artifact pattern could improve my proficiency.

Without hesitation, he stuck the scroll directly to his forehead.

A massive surge of soul power flowed into it, and Xiao Yang instantly saw a large number of artifact patterns.

Many of the patterns on the artifacts look very complex to Xiao Yang.

Keep in mind that these are just basic artifact patterns!

After a while, Xiao Yang finally managed to read through the contents.

At this moment, Xiao Yang suddenly realized that he might have underestimated the power of artifact patterns.

The secret runes he used to refine puppets and create flying combat techniques could not even be considered true artifact runes.

After rubbing his temples, Xiao Yang decided to start learning from the most basic spirit-gathering artifact patterns.

The function of the spirit-gathering artifact pattern is very simple: to gather the surrounding energy.

This is also one of the most basic patterns on artifacts.

Xiao Yang took out a carving knife and an ordinary wooden board.

He planned to try carving it on a wooden board first.

Normally, artifact patterns need to be inscribed with the flames of the soul.

However, since he is just a beginner, he can try carving it on the wooden board first.

The basic spirit-gathering artifact only has nine secret runes.

After recalling the events, Xiao Yang began to try carving on the wooden board with a carving knife.

The first three are very easy to carve.

Xiao Yang quickly finished carving it.

However, starting from the fourth secret rune, Xiao Yang found it somewhat difficult.

He always felt that something was wrong with his carving, but he couldn't figure out what it was.

However, he had no choice but to continue carving.

Chapter 171 First Time Refining Weapons

Soon, Xiao Yang finished carving the last stroke.

However, he discovered that the wooden board remained completely unchanged.

He knew this meant he had failed.

If the carving is successful, it will be fine, even if it's just a piece of wood, even if it's just carved with a carving knife.

However, it might be of some use.

At least, it can gather a small portion of the surrounding energy.

Although it will dissipate soon.

Xiao Yang began to reflect on where he had gone wrong.

He thought for a moment, then took out the scroll, opened it, and compared it with the engravings on the wooden board.

He soon realized something was wrong.

Just as he had sensed before, the connection between the fourth and third strokes of the secret pattern was somewhat off.

One wrong stroke, and the rest is ruined.

However, Xiao Yang was not discouraged.

He immediately started carving again.

This time, Xiao Yang directly used his soul fire to encase the wooden plank.

However, he did not directly use the Soulfire to carve.

Because the wooden planks simply couldn't support the weight.
