The Array Weapon Peak, one of the eight peaks of the Taique Sect, mainly cultivates the art of array weaponry, including setting up arrays and refining weapons. It is also one of the four arts of alchemy, talisman, array weaponry, and weaponry, and is the counterpart to alchemy and talisman.

However, because refining weapons and setting up formations are too tiring, requiring either physical exertion or extremely high mental comprehension, they are not as popular as alchemy and talisman crafting.

After all, alchemy and talisman making can bring huge profits and fame as long as they can be done, while weapon crafting and array setting are not as popular. People usually talk about a certain alchemist or talisman master rather than a certain weapon crafter or array master.

Therefore, the population on the Array Weapon Peak is relatively small, with some people focusing on refining weapons and others on studying array formations.

Lin Yitang followed Xuanhui Zhenjun all the way, and everywhere she saw were traces of formations.

On the peak of the Array Weapon Peak, array patterns intertwine, appearing and disappearing. These arrays vary in size and complexity, lending the entire peak a touch of mystery.

Some formations are radiant with light, resembling waterfalls or twinkling stars, while others are like vines entwined among the rocks, seemingly dormant and unactivated, exuding an aura that is not to be trifled with.

At the summit, a main hall stood tall. Constructed entirely of white jade, it was surrounded by several disciples dressed in blue robes, some busy setting up formations, others refining weapons.

Lin Yitang's eyes widened slightly at the sight before her. She had never seen so many formations and magical treasures before, so she could only remain silent and cautiously follow behind True Monarch Xuanhui, afraid that she might accidentally touch some kind of restriction.

True Monarch Xuanhui chuckled and said, "Don't worry, although there are many formations here, they are all restricted and won't hurt you. As long as you don't wander around or touch anything, you'll be fine."

The two walked straight through many formations and arrived at a weapon-refining room, then pushed open the door and entered.

The interior was simply furnished, with several huge furnaces placed against the wall, beneath which blazing fires burned.

In the very center was a huge forging platform, with raging earth fire burning on it, illuminating the entire room in a bright red glow. Various forging tools were laid out on the platform, including hammers, pliers, and chisels, which looked like they had been used countless times, their surfaces covered with scratches and burn marks.

Beside the refining platform was a huge iron rack, covered with all sorts of magical artifacts and materials. There were swords, knives, whips, hooks, and so on, each shimmering with spiritual light.

In a corner of the weapon-forging room, a burly middle-aged man was intently forging iron.

He was shirtless, revealing his muscular physique. Sweat dripped from his forehead, splattering onto the red-hot iron with a sizzling sound. He wielded the hammer with impenetrable speed, each strike powerful and sending sparks flying.

However, unlike ordinary blacksmithing, every force exerted by a male blacksmith is mixed with spiritual energy. The spiritual energy fluctuations come one after another, and although they are not large, they still greatly affect a person's state.

Lin Yitang felt the sound of blacksmithing growing louder and louder, her eardrums filled with the rhythmic hum of hammering, her heart pounding in rhythm, and her entire soul seemingly being tempered.

The man sensed someone approaching and stopped what he was doing.

Seeing that he had been noticed, True Monarch Xuanhui smiled and said to the male cultivator, "Elder Wu, let me introduce you. This is my disciple, Lin Yitang. He needs to forge a natal magic weapon. Do you think you can help?"

Upon hearing Xuan Hui's voice, Old Wu immediately put down the hammer in his hand, wiped his sweat, put on his coat, and turned around.

Upon seeing that it was True Lord Xuanhui, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he immediately became extremely respectful.

“True Lord Xuanhui, since you came in person, just let me know if there’s anything you need.”

Elder Wu said, "Forging natal magic weapons is the responsibility of our Array Weapon Peak."

Xuan Hui laughed and said, "Even so, sincerity is still essential. Your weapon forging doesn't come without the consumption of materials and spiritual energy. As long as you can help my disciple forge weapons, whatever you want can be taken directly from the resource vault of my Peak Master Hall."

Old Wu turned to Lin Yitang, looked her up and down, and asked, "Young lady, what kind of magical artifact do you want to forge?"

Lin Yitang thought for a moment and replied, "I want a knife."

Old Wu nodded, took a jade slip from the shelf and handed it to Lin Yitang, saying, "We have knives of all kinds of materials and styles here. Take a look and see if there's anything you like."

Lin Yitang probed the jade slip with her divine sense, and all sorts of knives immediately appeared before her eyes.

The types of knives also vary, including kitchen knives and cleavers, which may have been used by the chefs of the Taique Sect. In addition, there are short knives, long knives, horizontal knives, katanas, embroidered spring knives, ring-pommel knives, Burmese knives, Miao knives, etc., with a rich variety of styles and shapes.

Moreover, knives of the same type exhibit different characteristics depending on their materials. Some knives are entirely black, exuding a heavy aura, while others are crystal clear, as if cast from ice crystals, radiating a chilling aura; still others have long, slender blades, resembling swimming dragons, displaying extraordinary agility.

The weapons in the jade slip can also be demonstrated. The first one you see is a long, silver-white sword. Its blade is slender, as if formed from moonlight, and incredibly sharp. It can also emit a streak of light to attack the enemy at a speed that is too fast to be seen with the naked eye.

Next was a jet-black short sword made of abyssal iron. Its narrow blade made it easy to engage in close combat and could blend into the darkness, allowing it to approach the enemy silently.

There is also a sword with a thick blade and a slightly curved edge, forged from fine steel from the East Sea. It is incredibly heavy, but this also gives it unparalleled chopping power, similar to a greatsword.

In addition, there are flame-shaped "Heavenly Blade", icy "Ice Soul Blade", lightning-attribute "Thunderbolt Blade"... Each one is exquisitely crafted and possesses unique abilities.

Lin Yitang was dazzled by the exquisite craftsmanship of the knives. Each knife was unique, leaving her torn and unsure of which to choose.

Xuanhui Zhenjun noticed her hesitation and said, "The most important thing in choosing a natal magic weapon is that it resonates with your own will. You don't need to rush to make a decision. You can match it with your own attributes and find the one that suits you best."

Lin Yitang nodded. After looking for a long time, she finally chose a seemingly ordinary knife with no special attributes.

This knife is entirely silver-white, without any ornate patterns or special attributes. It looks similar to the mid-grade spirit knife that Lin Yitang is currently using; both are the most ordinary knife types. The blade is symmetrical, the edge is sharp and straight, and the hilt is wrapped with simple strips of cloth. It appears to have nothing special about it; it is simple and practical.

It has no dazzling light, no strange patterns, no powerful aura, and no unique characteristics; it is just an ordinary knife.

Lin Yitang chose this knife for a simple reason: it looks just like a knife.

Among the many magical artifacts displayed in the jade slip, many were unique, some even transcending the category of swords and resembling other weapons or spiritual treasures. However, this sword's appearance perfectly matched her stereotypical image of a sword, making it instantly recognizable as a spiritual sword, rather than any other type of magical artifact.

It's perfect for someone like her who has obsessive-compulsive disorder but doesn't have any particular hobbies.

"This one will do," Lin Yitang said to Elder Wu, pointing to the ordinary-looking knife in the jade slip.
