Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 1650 - 1633: Artifact Refining

"I never imagined Mr. Lin’s chess skills were so brilliant, opening my eyes wide, truly impressive." Elder Meng praised Lin Feng with a sincere admiration, realizing that even though it was just a singular move, it clearly demonstrated Lin Feng’s mastery of chess. Without hesitation, he conceded defeat, believing that continuing the game would lead to the same inevitable result.

"Elder Meng overpraises me, let’s take a walk." Lin Feng smiled and nodded modestly, then stood up and invited Elder Meng for a stroll.

"Alright." Upon hearing Lin Feng’s suggestion, Elder Meng immediately stood up and followed Lin Feng as they casually strolled towards the riverside.

Thus, the old and the young walked beside the river, with Lin Feng first breaking the silence, saying: "Elder Meng, I am very grateful for you coming here this time."

This was indeed Lin Feng’s genuine expression of gratitude, as from the earlier game of chess, he realized that Elder Meng was a true sage, someone he deeply respected, thus he opened the topic by saying this.

"Mr. Lin, there’s nothing to thank me for. I’m the one who should thank you for taking my granddaughter as your disciple," Elder Meng responded, smiling with a knowing tone.

Lin Feng, hearing Elder Meng’s words, immediately smiled as well, quickly understanding what Elder Meng meant, continuing, "Meng Zhu is a very outstanding child, and I do wish to train her, but to be honest, I have another reason for wanting Meng Zhu to follow me. Have you perhaps already guessed it?"

Lin Feng then turned the topic back to Elder Meng, smiling at him.

"At my age, there isn’t much to look forward to. To be honest, when I first heard it was you who wanted to take Meng Zhu as a disciple, I thought you had your eye on her. But through further understanding, I realized Mr. Lin is not someone who loves women, and Mr. Lin’s female friends are far more beautiful than Meng Zhu. So, I dismissed this possibility and allowed Meng Zhu to come here as your disciple. Yet, upon arriving here, I understood your intentions. But I do not oppose, having met that young fellow years ago, he’s quite good, and I’m comfortable with him being with Meng Zhu."

Seeing Lin Feng toss the topic back to him again, Elder Meng laughed heartily, expressing his thoughts openly. Now, he agreed with his granddaughter’s relationship with Leng Hao; otherwise, he wouldn’t speak so freely. He had confidence in the situation, as Leng Hao was indeed excellent, and with Lin Feng as the remarkable brother-in-law, he was reassured about Meng Zhu’s future. This was what he, as a grandfather, most wanted to see.

"You can trust Xiao Hao’s character, I can vouch for that. As for Meng Zhu’s cultivation and artifact refining studies, I can arrange everything excellently. I’ve already considered Meng Zhu as part of the family." Lin Feng stated with a smile. These were indeed his thoughts, and there was truly nothing for Elder Meng to worry about regarding Meng Zhu here.

"I know. If I didn’t trust you, I wouldn’t have brought Meng Zhu here." Elder Meng smiled as he confirmed, feeling very good now that everything was discussed openly.

"Thank you for your trust. Since there aren’t any pressing matters these days, I’ll begin guiding Meng Zhu in artifact refining. How much she can learn will depend on her ability," Lin Feng turned and said to Elder Meng calmly before stepping away. When speaking with such a sage, no need for many words, this was already enough.

After breakfast with the ladies, Lin Feng went to Lingxiu Academy to earnestly teach Meng Zhu about artifact refining...

While Lin Feng began instructing Meng Zhu in artifact refining, at the H Country New World in a mountain, six or seven youngsters emerged from an inconspicuous cave. If one observed closely, they would be surprised to find that these youngsters were all strong Human Immortal Realm warriors, with the leader being one of the Human Immortal Realm Peak. Obviously, these people were not from Earth; they were from another world.

"We are here now. Remember our mission, I don’t want to see you return empty-handed." A young man in a black robe with a pale face and exuding a cold aura spoke. He was the leader of this mission, Xiao Di, a character known by few even within the Holy Soul Sect. If it weren’t for Xiao Qianyu almost being killed last time, he wouldn’t have appeared, always living like a shadow in places unknown.

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

...

After hearing Xiao Di’s words, the remaining youngsters nodded in affirmation immediately, bowing to Xiao Di. After accomplishing these actions, they quickly vanished. Their mission was already set: to win over powerful forces on Earth as much as possible, so when opening the time-space gateway later, chaos would not ensue. Although the task sounded simple, they knew it wouldn’t be easy, especially since Lin Feng had become a secretly notable presence, making any move against him very difficult indeed.

Once these figures disappeared,

Xiao Di’s face showed a hint of a sinister smile. The sect had paid a great price to teleport them here, and he had to get things done. But once everything was settled, he planned to meet Lin Feng to see what skills Lin Feng had that nearly killed Xiao Qianyu. If possible, he intended to return to the sect with Lin Feng’s head.

Meanwhile, Lin Feng had already reached Lingxiu Academy and had called Meng Zhu to a separate place, beginning to formally teach Meng Zhu knowledge related to artifact refining.

Regarding the material knowledge of artifact refining, Lin Feng didn’t explain, but directly let Meng Zhu go to Fang Gu’s Artifact Pavilion to inquire when needed. He only imparted the techniques of artifact refining.

"Meng Zhu, the most important thing in artifact refining is mastering the timing and making decisive moves; there must not be the slightest hesitation or dawdling. I’ll first teach you how to use Gang Qi to assist in refining. Once your skills improve in the future and you can use Innate True Fire, I’ll teach you how to refine Dharma Treasures."

Looking at the serious Meng Zhu before him, Lin Feng began to seriously explain knowledge related to artifact refining. After finishing, Lin Feng immediately started transforming Gang Qi into various shapes, which instantly astonished Meng Zhu. She never knew Gang Qi could be used this way. Seeing this, Lin Feng also realized the problem and began by teaching Meng Zhu how to control the Gang Qi.

Starting from rough shapes, like transforming Gang Qi into a square, a circle...

As time passed swiftly, three days flew by, and Lin Feng had completely taught Meng Zhu how to control Gang Qi. From knowing nothing at the beginning, she could now even shape Gang Qi into any form, which made Lin Feng’s eyes light up. He hadn’t expected Meng Zhu’s talent to be unusually good, surpassing others by far, even beyond Leng Hao.

And Meng Zhu also realized the benefits Lin Feng spoke of. She discovered that ever since she began learning control over Gang Qi, her mastery had undergone an earth-shattering change. What’s more joyful was that her gang qi within her was in an extremely active state, raising her skill far more in three days than three months of prior cultivation. Therefore, Meng Zhu now was deeply respectful of Lin Feng, following whatever he said.

Once Meng Zhu had thoroughly mastered Gang Qi control, Lin Feng began teaching her real artifact refining techniques, using Innate True Fire to forge some materials, allowing Meng Zhu to learn how to discern timing, seize opportunities, and the attention needed during the forging process, making Meng Zhu thoroughly engrossed.

In the blink of an eye, another three days passed, and after Meng Zhu had grasped a general understanding, Lin Feng asked Leng Hao to take Meng Zhu to Senior Brother Fang Gu. At Fang Gu’s place, there is information to check, Fang Gu can guide Meng Zhu further, plus, there’s countless materials for Meng Zhu to practice with, enabling her to grow quickly.

Leng Hao is naturally very pleased with Lin Feng’s arrangement. After saying goodbye to Lin Feng, he left the Spirit Realm, heading to the Hidden World market of Fang Gu to find Fang Gu. As Len Hao left, Lin Feng immediately called for Moyan, leaving her quite puzzled as to why Lin Feng would call her now.

"Regarding your physical body reconstruction, I’ve thought it over, you should adjust your Divine Soul. If there are no accidents, I can help you reconstruct your physical body after some time." Looking at Moyan, Lin Feng said lightly. He just recently broke through, so he has not completely mastered this state yet, but he is confident he can help Moyan with the reconstruction once he has complete control, which he had promised Moyan before.

"My lord!"

Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, Moyan exclaimed with surprise, almost crying out of happiness. She was truly overjoyed now; just the thought of reconstructing her physical body delighted her immensely. After all, the Divine Soul itself differs greatly from a normal physical body and is restricted. Once her body is restored, she believes she can re-enter the Human Immortal Realm and help Lin Feng with some tasks.

After speaking, Moyan immediately wanted to kneel in thanks; such a great favor was indeed akin to another creation, she really didn’t know how to express gratitude toward Lin Feng. Without Lin Feng, she would still be merely a wisp of Divine Soul barely surviving inside Xia Lalan. Now she can appear before people in a Divine Soul body and soon reconstruct her physical body, such grace left Moyan unable to repay.

Upon seeing Moyan preparing to kneel in gratitude, Lin Feng waved once with his hand, lifting Moyan instantly, speaking to Moyan mildly: "This is what I promised you, no need to thank me in such a manner. As I said, try to perfect the Divine Soul as much as possible, which will increase the success of reconstructing the physical body."

After the words, Lin Feng turned and left, leaving Moyan dumbfounded in place. Looking at Lin Feng, her eyes turned misty. In their world, reconstructing a physical body is nearly impossible, and even if a large family expended everything, it might not secure help. Yet Lin Feng casually agreed to it, leaving her truly at a loss for repayment.

But thinking again and again, Moyan couldn’t think of anything to offer Lin Feng. Her existence in this world was originally indifferent, and her knowledge of certain cultivation techniques was useless to Lin Feng, so she truly had nothing to repay Lin Feng with.

Could it be... must I be like Lanlan?

Moyan suddenly thought of this, freezing instantly, startled by her own thoughts. Subsequently, her eyes showed confusion, with specific thoughts understood only by herself...
