I'm just lazing around cultivating in the world of Jade Dynasty.

He instantly grasped the sword knowledge that Wan Jianyi had just explained to him, and even the sword strike that Wan Jianyi had unleashed in the sky was almost completely understood by him.

Li Qing'an felt a sword light appear in his mind. As soon as the sword light appeared, all the enemies in front of him were destroyed, and he was able to move forward without hesitation.

About three incense sticks later, Li Qingan stood up and looked at Wan Jianyi: "Senior, please see if this is the case."

Then Li Qingan took the nearly broken magic weapon and swung his sword at the surrounding trees.

Seeing that Li Qing'an had suddenly grasped the concept and was already familiar with it as if he had been studying it for a long time, Wan Jianyi said, "You're doing well now. You've already begun to understand the basics."

"If you had remained like this just now, we could all have gone back to sleep."

Having left behind what he had learned, Wan Jianyi was in high spirits and continued, "I heard you're planning to go down the mountain for training."

"right"

Li Qingan followed Wan Jianyi to the place where the reclining chairs were placed.

Wan Jianyi also lay down on the chair: "Leave this recliner here, don't take it away. I think you're the one in the entire Qingyun Sect who knows how to enjoy life the most. Now it's a good time for this old man to enjoy himself."

"By the way, after you go down the mountain, you need to be careful of the Demonic Sect. The Demonic Sect is not just a bunch of charlatans who spread rumors and are full of tricks. Although I don't think you'll be fooled by them because of your laziness, I don't want to find a second successor."

“You must remember that power is not the only thing that can tempt people in this world; there is also beauty. And you mentioned before that you wanted to find a few confidantes. I have to ask you, what would you do if you met a woman from the Demonic Sect who fell in love with you and even planned to offer herself to you?” Wan Jianyi asked Li Qingan.

“I know this. According to the saying in my hometown, if you can’t resist someone’s sugar-coated bullets, then you should eat the sugar coating and fire the bullets back.”

Li Qingan then perked up and answered quickly.

"Hey, you kid."

Wan Jianyi, who had cultivated his Daoist heart for hundreds of years, felt utterly helpless.

He feared that this kid would ruin his reputation in the future, and thinking about this, he actually felt a little regretful.

"Alright, alright, I knew that with your ruthless nature, nothing would go wrong if you could say something like that."

"It's a pity that my old sword is no longer in my possession, otherwise I could leave it for you to use for self-defense when you go down the mountain."

At this moment, Wan Jianyi suddenly sighed again.

"Don't worry, senior. My sword must be forged by myself so that I can wield it perfectly." Li Qing'an said dismissively. Of course, the best magic weapon is one that you make yourself.

"However, senior, I am also considered half of your successor. I am still missing a few main materials for refining magic weapons. Just now, your sword intent shattered the magic weapons that have been with me for a long time. What do you think of this..."

Wan Jian's eyes widened in disbelief, utterly astonished by Li Qing'an's audacity. Asking him, a lonely old man, for materials? Did he look like materials to you? And you just wanted...

"Get lost! Why don't you go find Dao Xuan instead of me?"

"Looking for the sect leader, senior master? Alright, thank you, senior. I'll just say you sent me." Upon hearing this, Li Qing'an was overjoyed, as if he had heard some good news. He quickly took his leave and flew to the Jade Purity Palace.

After Li Qingan walked away, Dao Xuan also appeared next to Wan Jianyi.

"Did you hear that? This kid needs some materials. Given his talent for formations, he'll definitely be a great help to the sect in the future. If you're not worried about him dying while traveling down the mountain, you don't have to give them to him..."

"Wan Jianyi, you certainly don't need to remind me of this."

"I wasn't giving you a hint, it's just that this kid is too smart!"

.......

Outside the Jade Purity Hall, Li Qing'an held the extraterrestrial meteorite and the Nine Nether Cold Iron in his hands, showing no surprise whatsoever.

Given Dao Xuan's personality, on the first day he went to learn swordsmanship, he would naturally not let Wan Jianyi interact with him alone. He would definitely be watching from the side. While he seemed to be asking Wan Jianyi for materials, he was actually asking Dao Xuan for them.

This saves them the trouble of negotiating with Dao Xuan face-to-face.

He did not doubt whether Dao Xuan was a good sect leader, but it was precisely because he was a good sect leader that he made concessions to Li Qing'an, who was exceptionally talented and capable of contributing to the sect.

In the evening, at Dazhu Peak, Tian Buyi checked Zhang Xiaofan's cultivation level, which had not improved at all, and remained silent. Then, after hearing Su Ru say that Li Qingan planned to go down the mountain to travel after refining a magic weapon, he called Li Qingan over again and scolded him.

I'm the last one to know whether I'm still their master.

He wasn't allowed to leave until late at night.

Li Qingan walked out of Shoujing Hall and saw Zhang Xiaofan standing not far away, head bowed, heartbroken. He walked over to him.

"Senior brother, I'm sorry. It's all because my aptitude is not good enough that you were scolded."

Li Qingan put his hand on Zhang Xiaofan's shoulder and comforted him.

"What's it to you? It's my own business. My master's wife and the sect leader both know that I'm going down the mountain to travel. He was the last to find out, and he thinks I don't care about him, which is why he's angry."

"Don't overthink it. You just need to practice diligently, and you will succeed naturally."

Zhang Xiaofan felt ashamed, but still nodded.

After saying goodbye to Zhang Xiaofan, Li Qingan returned to his room and looked at the materials that had been prepared.

【Naiqi】

Chapter 28 Preparation of the Magic Weapon

Li Qing'an looked at the materials in front of him, enough to forge a magical treasure comparable to a divine weapon from the heavens, and pondered to himself.

The scarcity of the Nine Heavens Divine Weapons lies in the people who forge them, not in the materials used. Otherwise, with such a vast continent as Shenzhou, how could there only be a few divine weapons?

As the leader of the righteous path, the Qingyun Sect has not successfully forged the Nine Heavens Divine Weapon for hundreds of years, but it is not surprising that there are some materials in the treasure vault!

After all, there is a difference between having the Nine Heavens Divine Weapon and not having it. With the Nine Heavens Divine Weapon, one's combat power will increase by at least one or two levels.

In a battle between experts, even a moment of distraction can lead to utter defeat, let alone when facing an opponent whose combat power has increased by one or two levels!

Just like Zhang Xiaofan, under the power of the Fire Stick, was able to defeat Jiang Laosan, who was at the seventh or eighth level of the Jade Purity Realm, while only at the fourth level of the Jade Purity Realm, in Kongsang Mountain.

Therefore, Li Qingan's goal was naturally to forge his own Nine Heavens Divine Weapon.

Having already had this idea for a while, and having thoroughly studied the books in the Great Bamboo Peak library through the panel, he naturally had some confidence in refining magical treasures.

However, what worries him is that he is less than 60% confident, and there is still a 40% chance of failure in refining it. What's the difference between that and simply wasting materials!

Although using the blood refining method could increase the success rate to over 80%, and Zhang Xiaofan's Soul-Devouring Staff was considered the strongest magic weapon in the original novel, as a blood-refined item, it would inevitably arouse desires and disrupt one's cultivation. Therefore, he did not intend to use the blood refining method to refine magic weapons.

Besides the Blood Refining Method, another way is to further enhance his weapon-refining ability.

After all, it wasn't easy for Tian Bu of Dazhu Peak to let his disciples grow up freely. Over the past few hundred years, he naturally accumulated some books on weapon crafting.

However, most of the weapon-refining knowledge in the Qingyun Sect is still kept private by the elders of each branch, because it is a summary of their masters or grandmasters and passed down through the lineage.

These elders, who possessed the technology, were naturally arrogant and looked down on ordinary people. They sometimes didn't even give Dao Xuan face.

If Li Qing'an were to directly say that he wanted to see their weapon-refining tradition, he would probably be kicked out immediately.

"It seems we can only visit the other lineages and see what their weapon-refining traditions are like."

Li Qingan thought to himself.

Every sect has its share of people with outdated ideas, and the Qingyun Sect, having enjoyed a century of peace, is no exception.

Therefore, he didn't want to go to those elders and get cold shoulders. He would rather find the weapon-refining books in the other sects' library and learn from their strengths to make up for his weaknesses. Maybe that would be enough for him to refine the Nine Heavens Divine Weapon.

Anyway, the previous leaders of the various factions had already agreed that Li Qing'an could visit their library.

......

A few months later

Feng Huifeng Library

"Qing'an, you've almost finished reading all the books in our collection? And you've even read all the books from the other branches of our Qingyun Sect."

Zeng Shushu looked at Li Qing'an, who was writing almost a page per second, and was amazed.

"Yes, have you finished reading all the books in your library?" Li Qing'an replied while flipping through the books. "But before, in the other branches, I only read books about weapon crafting, and not the others."

At this point, Li Qing'an paused, then said, "No, it seems I've never been to Xiaozhu Peak. When the leaders of the various sects agreed to let me go before, my senior uncle Shuiyue wasn't there and didn't say he allowed me to go, so I didn't go."

"Putting that aside, what I want to ask is, who reads books like you? You read ten thousand books from my Feng Hui Peak in just a month and a half. I won't even mention the Taoist scriptures or the miscellaneous books."

Zeng Shushu lowered his voice at this point:

"How come you even read books about sex? What can you possibly learn from that?"

"Shushu, you're wrong about that. You can't look at this kind of book with prejudice. You don't realize that understanding one principle leads to understanding all principles. This kind of book contains a lot of knowledge about Yin and Yang, such as how all things carry Yin and embrace Yang..."

"real or fake"

"After I comprehend it, I'll give you a copy of this technique so you can master everything and have incredible stamina. Maybe your future partner will even thank me."

Upon hearing this, Zeng Shushu's face lit up, her eyes darted around, and her tone became excited: "Alright, I believe you, but remember to give me a copy when you finally understand it."

"no problem"

"But can you really read this kind of book carefully like that? Otherwise, I'll take you to my room so you can look at it more closely. You can't afford to make mistakes with this kind of thing! Making a mistake could lead to big trouble."

"I didn't look carefully!"

Li Qingan replied matter-of-factly, "But I can remember it when I'm cultivating, so remembering it now and remembering it later are the same."

Zeng Shushu suddenly had some doubts, after all, it concerned her happiness for the rest of her life.

"Alright, I've finished watching." Li Qingan became serious at this moment.

"I'll pass it on to you when I have the time and inspiration to research it. I need to go and prepare to refine a magic weapon now."

Zeng Shushu followed behind Li Qingan and asked curiously, "By the way, you've been reading for so long, and I haven't even asked you what kind of magic weapon you plan to refine. You actually read all the books in my Feng Hui Peak, and you even read the books on refining magic weapons from the other sects."

"Divine weapons from the Nine Heavens!" Li Qingan's tone was very serious.

"Oh, Nine Heavens, what? Nine Heavens Divine Weapon!" Zeng Shushu was shocked. He did not doubt the truth of what Li Qingan said, because a few months ago, Li Qingan had given him the simplified cultivation method for demon beasts.

From then on, he had no doubt about what Li Qingan had done. There was no way around it; if you didn't believe someone who could even research cultivation methods for spirit beasts, who else could you believe?

What surprised him was that the Qingyun Sect had not forged the Nine Heavens Divine Weapon for hundreds of years. Now that Li Qing'an was planning to forge it, based on his understanding of Li Qing'an, if Li Qing'an was confident in proposing something, then there was at least a 60% chance that the matter would be successful.

Sixty percent!

Over the past three hundred years, there have been instances where Qingyun Sect predecessors attempted to forge the Nine Heavens Divine Weapon, but all of them failed without exception.

And the chances of them actually refining it, which they are so proud of, are only 20% to 30%, at most 40%.

Zeng Shushu felt that if his father knew about this, he would beg Li Qing'an to allow him to observe, even if it meant pleading with him.

Thinking of this, Zeng Shushu said somewhat embarrassedly, "Qing'an, when you are refining magic weapons, could we watch? Don't worry, we won't disturb you."

What he didn't know was that Li Qing'an had delayed for several months before deciding to start refining, so the success rate couldn't possibly be only 60%.

He didn't care whether they were watching or not, and besides, he needed to use the ancient Earthly Fiend Fire of Feng Hui Peak to refine his magic weapon, so he couldn't possibly object.
