Ninth-Rank Refiner

Chapter 184: Danqi Set

As per the Sect Leader's request, one hundred Great Wing Vehicles flew back to the Refining Spirit Sect in a high-profile manner.

To strengthen the Sect's power and enhance its prestige.

After entering the Sect's airspace, the Great Wing Vehicles put on an aerial display.

One hundred green Great Wing Vehicles formed the character “one” (one) in the air for a moment, then the character “people” (person).

The moment the characters were formed, the Formation activated, radiating brilliant light, which was quite beautiful.

Flying to Lingwu Avenue, right in the middle of the Five Immortal Mountains, the Great Wing Vehicles suddenly transformed, displaying the Refining Spirit Sect's copper coin emblem.

Immediately, cheers erupted from within the Five Immortal Mountains.

The five large characters “Refining” (Refining), “spirit” (Spirit), “Zong” (Sect), “none” (Invincible), “enemy” (Enemy) flashed in sequence.

On Preaching Mountain, five bell tolls rang out at the appropriate time.

The shouts of "Refining Spirit Sect is invincible!" echoed one after another throughout the Five Immortal Mountains.

A sense of pride and honor rose in the chest of every Disciple.

After fully immersing everyone in the festive atmosphere of their triumphant return, the Great Wing Vehicle team slowly flew towards Purple Gold Manor.

Golden Bull Garden had been divided into two; the Seven-Colored Golden Bull enjoyed its own super-large cattle shed, named Seven-Colored Camp.

As for the newly arrived male Golden Oxen, they moved into the newly constructed Soaring Camp.

Between the two camps, several rows of spiritual plants were planted to provide sound and odor insulation.

The female Golden Oxen returned to the Seven-Colored Camp one by one, and seeing that the Seven-Colored Golden Bull was not upset, Zhangzuo Dajiu returned to the mountaintop.

Huang Guiren directed the unloading, while Qian Duoduo plunged into the backyard of his Immortal Cave, beginning to refine the Soaring Overlord, a Dan artifact set.

He had already studied the Soaring Overlord's Magic Treasure no less than a hundred times and had simulated the Artifact Refining process multiple times with his Spiritual Awareness.

After much deliberation, he decided to use spiritual copper as the main material for the golden ox saddle.

The choice of spiritual copper was not simply because he had a massive amount of spiritual copper ore in hand, but also because spiritual copper is relatively soft, allowing it to better conform to the Golden Ox's body.

Additionally, while spiritual copper is not as heavy as gold or silver, it is heavier than spiritual iron and spiritual tin.

Refining the Soaring Overlord with spiritual copper could better leverage the Golden Ox's massive size.

As for the golden ox horn and golden ox spear, in addition to spiritual copper, profound iron would also be used.

Profound iron's strength is higher than spiritual copper, providing greater attack power.

Qian Duoduo pressed the cauldron, and a ball of scorching flame rose, beginning to purify the spiritual copper ore.

This time, he needed to refine hundreds of sets of Dan artifacts, so Qian Duoduo refined half of the spiritual copper ore he had obtained from the Dafu Gold Mine last time, yielding nearly one hundred thousand catties of extremely pure spiritual copper before he stopped.

"The golden ox saddle, a high-grade artisan artifact, is fixed on the Golden Ox's body, protecting its vulnerable abdomen.

It has stirrups on both sides for the rider to stabilize their body and control the Golden Ox, achieving the Body Integration of human and ox."

Qian Duoduo glanced at the text and diagrams on the Magic Treasure again, then began refining the first golden ox saddle.

The golden ox saddle needed to be slightly thicker on the sides for protection.

The top of the saddle, however, could be thinner, which also made it easier to pad with silk floss between the saddle and the ox's body.

A quarter of an hour later, a reddish-yellow golden ox saddle was refined.

If he hadn't been thinking about how to minimize the golden ox saddle's pressure on the Golden Ox's Spiritual Vein, the Artifact Refining time could have been even shorter.

"The golden ox horn, a high-grade artisan artifact, is one and a half feet long and is fitted onto the Golden Ox's horns, serving as the Golden Ox's offensive weapon."

When crafting the golden ox horn, Qian Duoduo directly used integrated Artifact Refining.

He placed pure spiritual copper and pure profound iron into the cauldron; the base of the golden ox horn remained pure spiritual copper, the spike part remained pure profound iron, and the middle part used a mixture of spiritual copper and profound iron.

The greatest advantage of this Artifact Refining method was that no matter how it was impacted, the copper and iron would not separate.

"The golden ox spear, a high-grade artisan artifact, comes in a set of three, each six feet long, with a three-sided blade.

It serves as both a weapon for the Golden Ox rider and can be thrown from a distance.

It can also be fixed on the Golden Ox's saddle for use in charges and assaults."

When it came to refining the golden ox spear, Qian Duoduo encountered some difficulty.

A six-foot-long golden ox spear, if refined with spiritual copper, would be too soft.

During powerful impacts, the golden ox spear could easily deform, turning into a limp noodle.

While using a mixture of spiritual copper and profound iron could solve the softness issue, if it encountered a hard object and failed to penetrate, it would, in turn, cause harm to the Golden Ox.

After much deliberation, he couldn't find a solution, so Qian Duoduo decided to still use spiritual copper for the spear shaft and profound iron for the spearhead.

He would look for a better solution in actual combat.

Qian Duoduo, holding the refined Soaring Overlord, excitedly went to Soaring Camp.

Soon after, Yu Yixiang was called over by Qian Duoduo.

Since she provided the Magic Treasure for the Soaring Overlord, he naturally had to invite her to witness the power of the Dan artifact set.

Upon seeing Qian Duoduo, she pursed her lips and smiled, "Only you could come up with such a crooked idea as building a hundred large green vehicles to steal cattle."

If this had happened to someone else, Yu Yixiang would have been surprised.

But Qian Duoduo's thought process was unique, so she wasn't surprised at all.

Qian Duoduo laughed heartily, "It will take at least two or three years for the cows in Golden Bull Garden to give birth and then for the calves to grow up.

That's too slow.

We're impatient and want to test if the Soaring Overlord you gave us can truly soar to the heavens."

To test the Soaring Overlord, Qian Duoduo invited Elder Hu from the Sect gate to act as the "enemy."

He happened to be at Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.

Huang Guiren released a low-grade combat beast Golden Ox from Soaring Camp.

This Golden Ox was plump and strong, and perhaps unfamiliar with the manor environment, it began to run wildly as soon as it entered the yard.

If it weren't for the fence, it would have charged out.

Elder Hu extended a hand, and a huge Spiritual Qi palm appeared in the courtyard.

The giant palm pressed down on the Golden Ox's forehead, stopping its wild charge.

How could the young Golden Ox admit defeat so easily? Like a rebellious youngster, it stiffened its neck and tried to buck up five or six times.

Seeing that the giant palm remained motionless, it then looked at Elder Hu with a sideways glance, temporarily admitting defeat.

While it was docile, Qian Duoduo and Huang Guiren fitted it with the golden ox saddle.

There was a cow rope on the golden ox saddle, passing through the ox's nose in the front and connecting to the saddle in the back.

With it, even the wildest Golden Ox would obey its rider.

At this point, the Golden Ox's Spiritual Awareness was willing to allow a rider of lower strength to probe it.

Spiritual Awareness connected, human and ox became one.

Qian Duoduo held the cow rope and quickly installed the golden ox horn.

Riding on the Golden Ox's back, he ran around the yard a few times.

The Golden Ox's speed was not slow, and it was exceptionally stable.

Qian Duoduo took out a mid-grade artisan artifact shield and handed it to Elder Hu, "Elder, please hold this; I'll make some adjustments."

Elder Hu hesitated, "No detonating Magic Treasure."

"Of course." Qian Duoduo couldn't help but smile; the reputation of Artifact Refiner wasn't entirely good.

"Let's test the golden ox horn first."

Elder Hu, holding the shield, stood about forty to fifty feet ahead.

Qian Duoduo pressed his legs into the stirrups and lightly touched the Golden Ox's belly, using his Spiritual Awareness to tell the Golden Ox to charge fiercely at the shield ahead with its golden ox horn.

The Golden Ox retreated two steps, lowered its head, and charged straight towards the shield.

"A little lower," Qian Duoduo transmitted with his Spiritual Awareness.

The Golden Ox lowered its head slightly, and the golden ox horn, like a straight line, extended forward.

"Boom!"

The golden ox horn crashed into the shield, splitting it into seven or eight pieces.

Elder Hu retreated more than ten steps before he managed to stabilize himself.

The golden ox horn was completely undamaged.

The Golden Ox beneath him proudly shook its head, exhaling a large puff of air from its nostrils.

"Catch!"

Qian Duoduo threw another high-grade artisan artifact shield to Elder Hu.

"Test again."

Turning the Golden Ox around and running fifty feet away, Qian Duoduo took out the golden ox spear and hung one on each side of the golden ox saddle.

The spearheads were two feet in front of the Golden Ox.

Elder Hu channeled his Spiritual Qi, gripping the shield's handle tightly with his right hand, standing steadily in front.

"Charge!"

Qian Duoduo roared.

"Moo!"

The Golden Ox let out a low bellow, its four hooves tearing at the ground, kicking up two trails of dust, and charged fiercely towards the shield in front of Elder Hu!
