Chapter 76: Chapter 76 Zhiwei, Let Me Upgrade You

This five consecutive refreshes yielded quite satisfactory results.

Let’s first talk about a few one-star items.

[Qi Blood Recovery] and [Lethal Block] are suitable for combat.

The former can instantly restore a sect member’s consumed qi blood and magical power to peak status, with an exchange price of 25 reputation points.

The latter can block a lethal attack for the blessed, equivalent to having an extra life, with an exchange price of 1000 reputation points.

These two are not urgently needed now. When disciples go out to perform tasks or participate in battles in the future, if necessary, Lu Ping will not be stingy and will exchange them immediately.

Additionally, [Mutual Aid and Love] and [Sect Loyalty] are aimed at all sect members.

As the names suggest, one can promote mutual aid and love among disciples, enhancing their relationships.

The other can enhance disciples’ loyalty to the sect.

In Lu Ping’s view, both are quite important, and they are not expensive, 50 reputation points each. No need to wait, exchange them now.

[One-star Mutual Aid and Love exchange successful]

[One-star Sect Loyalty exchange successful]

reputation points deducted, and the effects of these two items took immediate effect, lasting for one year.

In the coming year, the atmosphere within the Cyan Mountain Sect will be one of friendliness, harmony, and loyal diligence, which will be very beneficial to the sect’s development.

As for the four two-star items refreshed this time.

One of them is [Resource Optimization], which was unexpected for Lu Ping; it’s finally obtained again.

He needs to ponder where to apply this, so it’s set aside for now.

Another, the [Two-star Li Fire Celestial Sword Talisman], Lu Ping took a brief look at it. Its effectiveness is comparable to the Exorcism Divine Thunder Talisman, with the same exchange price of 100 reputation points.

Lu Ping hopes for as many of these two-star talismans as possible.

No need to wait.

Spending 100 reputation points, Lu Ping exchanged for the [Two-star Li Fire Celestial Sword Talisman].

A crimson talisman appeared in his hand, inscribed with complex and mysterious black runes.

The most eye-catching feature is the lifelike flaming longsword-shaped rune pattern, seemingly ablaze with fierce flames.

The Li Fire Celestial Sword Talisman is a fire attribute spirit talisman.

Once triggered, it can unleash the Li Fire Celestial Sword, possessing power equivalent to a full-force strike from a peak Qi Cultivation cultivator.

After examining the Li Fire Celestial Sword Talisman several times, Lu Ping stored it in the system’s warehouse.

The last two items, Lu Ping opened the details.

[Artifact Refiner Upgrading: Two-star]

[Effect: Choose a sect member who is an artifact refiner to improve their artifact refining mastery by one tier]

[Reputation: 100]

...

[Life Extension: Two-star]

[Effect: Increase a sect member’s lifespan by five years with no side effects]

[Reputation: 300]

...

The effects of these two two-star items were very clear.

One directly enhances an artifact refiner’s tier.

The other increases a sect member’s lifespan by five years.

Unveiling the effect of [Artifact Refiner Upgrade], Lu Ping immediately thought of Lu Zhiwei.

He opened Zhiwei’s personal attribute panel and saw in the identity section, a line showing Tier One High-Grade Refiner, indicating the little girl’s artifact refining mastery hadn’t broken through, still lingering at this tier.

If this were upgraded for her, she could leap straight into the Tier Two Lower Grade Refiner ranks, able to refine Tier Two Spiritual Artifacts!

This would greatly benefit the sect.

No more words, let’s exchange this first.

Deducting 100 reputation points.

[Ding, you have exchanged for Artifact Refiner Upgrade, please choose the target to use it on]

Before triggering, Lu Ping first communicated with Lu Zhiwei to give her a heads-up.

"Zhiwei, I’m going to upgrade you in a moment."

Upon hearing Lu Ping’s voice, a look of joy appeared on Lu Zhiwei’s face.

Father has exited seclusion after a year?

She just returned to Cyan Lotus Mountain, currently resting; should she now go and meet her father?

While pondering over this, she didn’t pay much heed to Lu Ping’s mention of ’upgrade’. The next moment, she felt a large influx of information suddenly appear in her mind.

This information consisted of a massive amount of artifact refining knowledge, encompassing from Tier One High-Grade to Tier Two Lower Grade levels.

The influx of this knowledge into her mind seemed like she had personally mastered it through years of accumulation and exploration in artifact refining.

The insights and techniques of refining in her mind rapidly advanced to the Tier Two Lower Grade level in an extremely short period!

"Father, it seems I really..."

Recalling Lu Ping’s earlier hint, Lu Zhiwei was dumbfounded for a long while.

"It seems like I’ve really upgraded..."

Having lived with Lu Ping since childhood, she knew what Lu Ping meant by ’upgrade’.

She was more than clear about her artifact refining mastery.

To be promoted to Tier Two Lower Grade Refiner, she would need another two or three years of exploration.

But now, her father’s intervention seemed to fast-forward two or three years, instantly elevating her to the Tier Two Lower Grade Refiner ranks.

The previous method of revitalizing her Dao heart was already far beyond belief.

Now, after a year of seclusion, her father’s methods have become even more mysterious.

It feels surreal, like being in a dream.

Full of questions and amazement, Lu Zhiwei immediately used the Light Body Technique and arrived outside the cave mansion at the back mountain to convey the matter of her artifact refining mastery upgrade to Lu Ping.

"Don’t worry, it’s not harmful to you."

"In the future, such things will be common. You’ll need to get used to it."

Lu Ping didn’t elaborate further and just gave this response.

Given the system’s cheat-like methods, he found it hard to explain, so he couldn’t be bothered to.

Though Lu Zhiwei didn’t quite understand how Lu Ping managed it, she figured it wasn’t harmful, so she decided not to overthink it.

If it’s incomprehensible, don’t think about it, just follow what Father says.

Having completed the upgrade of his daughter’s artifact refining mastery, leaving 293 reputation points remaining, Lu Ping halted the exchanges.

These reputation points need to be saved for important uses.

He brought up another matter in passing.

"You’re just in time; go and call She Qingqing in a bit."

"I’ve heard from the Distant Mountain that she has been studying alchemy knowledge for more than a year, has already grasped the basic theories, and can attempt refining spirit pills, aiming to break into the Tier One Alchemist threshold."

The proposal to cultivate She Qingqing was initially raised by Lu Zhiwei.

Now, hearing that She Qingqing has achieved good learning results, Lu Zhiwei felt that time has indeed flown by quickly.

The little girl who only watched over the medicinal garden in the past can now stand on her own and become an alchemist.

"Father, please wait."

Knowing the sect would have its own alchemist made Lu Zhiwei naturally happy. She responded and then turned to head for the medicinal garden to call She Qingqing.

When she arrived at the medicinal garden and told She Qingqing about Lu Ping’s summoning, She Qingqing was momentarily stunned.

Having joined late, for less than ten years, she certainly had never seen Lu Ping’s true visage.

When she joined the Cyan Mountain Sect, Lu Ping was also in a grueling thirty-year seclusion.

However, she was aware that the sect had a Golden Core Ancestor.

After all, looking at the Chu Kingdom, there were only a few Golden Core Ancestors, each renowned far and wide, so how could she not know about the Cyan Mountain Sect having one?

But now, what puzzled her was the rumor circulating within the Cyan Mountain Sect that the sect’s ancestor had always been in seclusion.

Or rather... was it that the Cyan Mountain Sect’s Golden Core Ancestor had already emerged?

If the founding forefather had exited seclusion, he would have intervened long ago during the demonic invasion of the Cyan Mountain Sect, helping to save the sect.

Such rumors made her increasingly apprehensive.

Following Lu Zhiwei, with a nervous look, she arrived at the back mountain cave mansion.
