The Ancient Strengthening Technique

AST 1774 - Only Part to Meet Again

Qing Shui's hand caressed Yiye Jiange's back gently. He was enjoying the calming moment after the storm. Her warm and smooth skin was like the best piece of silk, he couldn't keep his hands off her. He could only indulge in such delicate session peacefully after two hours of vigorous activity.

"Qingge's strength increased tremendously, did you guys……" Yiye Jiange smirked. Her greatly improved strength and followed by her increased intimacy with Qing Shui. That was the reason that made her curious. Qing Shui was reluctant to bring up these issues in front of them and his women did not ignore it, but had to accept it calmly since they couldn't object his choice.

"No, you're thinking nonsense, didn't you see me just now, I held myself back for a long time. Are you not satisfied yet, let Elder Brother love you more," Before finishing his line, Qing Shui wanted to turn over……

"Bastard, alright, stop it, I really don't want anymore," Yiye Jiange blushed. This young man embarrassed her by calling himself Elder Brother.

Qing Shui was held so tightly that he stopped moving and looked at her with a grin, "I used to have a dream, an ambitious dream."

"What dream?"Yiye Jiange raised her head a little while cuddling with Qing Shui. At that moment, she was full of satisfaction, she enjoyed the current peaceful environment and mental serenity.

"To be ever-victorious, to have a troop of wives and concubines!" Qing Shui said in a heavy tone.

Yiye Jiange startled and smiled, "You are yet to be ever-victorious, but you have already achieved the latter, you should be happy that you're approaching your goal."

Qing Shui shook his head bitterly, "You are my great Elder Sister, I feel you're getting colder. Can you be a little jealous to fulfill my sense of achievement? I can't feel my self-esteem when you don't care about me."

"A man cannot live without love affairs, but it only occupies a small part of his life, there are a lot of other things to do. Didn't you say that durable love lasts without living together day and night? It's great to meet once in a year or two and spend a few days together." Yiye Jiange said seriously.

Qing Shui opened his eyes wide and pondered, it was a common thought among his women. They were all superwomen in the past life. Only a clingy woman would stick to a man constantly, in fact, that was not a good thing. Any intimate couple would require their own personal space and a slight distance to keep a good relationship. It was true that distance led to harmony.

"But, don't you feel suffocated to part for too long?" Qing Shui said, biting her earlobe.

Yiye Jiange shivered lightly and replied gently, "Only when the time is long, will you miss me, I will miss you too."

Qing Shui smirked. Could this be 'absence makes the hearts fonder'……

……

……

Qing Shui slept until midnight with Yiye Jiange in his embrace, now the little guy was awake. They slept in the bedroom with the little guy in between, he adored this feeling.

After midnight, Qing Shui entered the Realm of Violet Jade Immortal. He had many things to do now. Besides training, he wanted to forge his Golden Battle Halberd again.

Instead of forging, it was literally enforcement by adding some unique raw materials and strengthening stones to make the existing weapon and armor stronger.

Qing Shui indeed wanted to use the Vampiric Divine Gold. Despite the upsetting event, he had to utilize it wisely, or else, it would be a waste.

Qing Shui was not in great pleasure while looking at the huge Vampiric Divine Gold in the realm. Now, He would try to merge the Vampiric Divine Gold in the Golden Battle Halberd.

Vampiric Divine Gold Refinement!

Qing Shui's Primordial Flame was strengthened as the result of his improvement in strength, absorption of Fire Pearl, and mastered skills of Fire attributes. The power of Primordial Flame was comparable to the mastered level of Divine Wood Essence in Wood attributes.

Vampiric Divine Gold's grade would increase to its peak after refinement. This was Qing Shui's powerful and unparalleled ability. The others could increase the grade of refining ingredients depending on their experiences, whereas Qing Shui could increase the ingredients' grade to their peak.

The reason for Qing Shui's success was His Heavenly Vision Technique. He could inspect the quality of the materials during the refining process, while the others were unable to see the big picture.

Time passed by, as Qing Shui refined the Vampiric Divine Gold, the grade increased gradually. Looking at the rate of improvement, Qing Shui knew it would take at least one week to increase it to perfect-grade.

Grade 90!

Qing Shui paused to look at the Vampiric Divine Gold now, it shrunk more than one-third from its previous size at grade 80. Yet, the current Vampiric Divine Gold was equipped with higher spiritual sense. Its toughness and the other characteristic improved several times.

Qing Shui was not surprised, the further it progressed, the greater the difference in grade. To get a better end product, one must use a better-grade ingredient.

Some Forging masters might want to refine all the way through, but there was a limit to the grade increment, just like stocks speculation. Once it passed 100, the ingredient would become useless.

Hence, the normal Forging Masters would stop based on his past experiences. Therefore, only the very fortunate one could produce a perfect-grade item. If he was not satisfied with the increment and continued out of greed, it would be a tragedy. It is a very common situation.

Qing Shui's Heavenly Vision Technique was like a cheating tool. Over the years, he benefited massively relying on it.

A few days later, Qing Shui looked at the Vampiric Divine Gold which only had half the size of a human head. This was the perfect-grade Vampiric Divine Gold. Previously, it was half a man's size; now, it was only half of a man's head. It was revolving with violet halo and stream of violet vapor.

This was the difference between quantity transformation and quality improvement. The perfect-grade Vampiric Divine Gold was many times more valuable than the previous one.

Next, it was refined into the molten state and poured onto the Golden Battle Halberd, followed by hammering. Qing Shui's Iron Smelting Hammer was now a hammer of False God level. This was for the sake of better end products.

The forging equipment needed to be of great quality in order to forge great items. Hence, Qing Shui spent a long time producing a suitable hammer. Muyun Qingge and Tantai Lingyan had False God-level boots which provided by Qing Shui's powerful hammer.

Qing Shui was not in a hurry to forge False God-level armors and weapons for his women. One of the reasons being the False God Weapons were not easy to forge. Besides, they were in the best stage for improvements, he did not want them to be dependent on these weapons too much.
