Immortal Cultivation Families: The Rise of the Jinling Immortal Clan

Once the formation was activated, the magma at the center immediately became scorching and churning. Xia Yuhui did not hesitate at all and directly released the refining furnace.

The furnace flew above the magma and rapidly expanded, eventually reaching a height of one foot, before slowly beginning to rotate.

Xia Yuhui leaped to the top of the furnace, placed his hand on the furnace head, and slowly felt the temperature emanating from inside.

Half an incense stick later, Xia Yuhui, feeling that the temperature was just right, leaped back and first manipulated the black iron into it.

As the black iron was poured into the furnace, a series of booming sounds immediately emanated from within. Xia Yuhui manipulated the black iron inside the furnace with one hand, while his other hand continuously cast incantations, slowly melting the black iron within.

Once it felt that most of the impurities had been removed, iron sand was added back in.

After a few more moments, the refined gold was added to the furnace. Once it seemed about right, a bottle of spiritual liquid was tossed in. Finally, the furnace lid was lifted, a hand seal was formed, and a deep shout rang out: "Condense!"

Finally, the furnace emitted a hum. Xia Yuhui eagerly stepped forward to inspect it, and a high-quality, low-grade first-tier magic weapon, a spirit iron flying sword, had already taken shape.

"If that's really the case, the significant enhancement of divine sense will indeed be of great help to weapon refining." Xia Yuhui immediately took up the flying sword, waved it left and right a few times, and then smiled with undisguised joy.

During the refining process, Xia Yuhui was surprised to find that the refining techniques that had been difficult and dangerous in the past, as well as his control at the critical moment of refining, had been greatly improved. This was because his divine sense was strong, which allowed him to examine the entire refining process from all angles without any blind spots.

In the past, he would only be able to successfully forge two out of ten magical artifacts, which shows how low the probability of success was.

Now, his spiritual sense has greatly increased. If he were to refine ten items, he might actually be able to refine four or five.

Don't underestimate this probability. If Xia Yuhui really has this probability, then if he refines several times a day, he can earn at least 100 spirit stones a month.

After all, weapon crafting is the second most popular profession in the cultivation world, after alchemy.

After carefully examining the flying sword, he quickly put it away, then extinguished the furnace and put it away as well.

When they came out, the shopkeeper had already disappeared. A woman ran up to Xia Yuhui and brought him back to the shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper: "I don't know if it has been successfully refined."

"I am ashamed, I am ashamed. Although I used your shop's refining furnace, I was still unable to successfully refine it. However, I have already felt that the furnace is of extraordinary quality, so I decided to buy it. In addition, I would also like to buy a few sets of refining materials from your shop."

The shopkeeper readily agreed and quickly ordered someone to deliver the materials to Xia Yuhui.

Xia Yuhui then handed over the spirit stones, and after the money and goods were exchanged, Xia Yuhui left directly.

After leaving the house, Xia Yuhui looked around at the crowd a few times. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he quickly walked into an alley and turned left and right.

When he emerged from another alley, he had changed into a white robe, and his face was also covered.

This time, he did not leave the market directly, but went to the Xia family's shop in the market.

After confirming that it was his own shop, Fengling Pavilion, which was owned by the Xia family, Xia Yuhui went straight inside.

"I wonder what you wish to buy?" A woman greeted him as he entered the store.

Xia Yuhui looked at the woman, and a smile appeared on his face behind the mask. The woman was his thirteenth sister, Xia Yurou. Because of her poor talent, she was only a cultivator with five spiritual roots, so she chose to work as a waitress in the Xia family shop. However, because of her sweet face and eloquence, she was quite popular with customers.

"Thirteenth Sister, it's been half a year since we last met, and I don't even recognize you anymore." After saying that, Xia Yuhui directly removed the mask from her face, revealing her true appearance.

"Fifth Brother, what brings you here? Did you come all this way just to see me? Did you bring me any gifts?" Upon seeing Xia Yuhui's face, Xia Yurou immediately hugged his right hand with a sweet smile.

Xia Yuhui: "Haven't seen you for half a year, and you're itching for a beating again? Get lost!"

However, Xia Yurou was not annoyed at all, and continued to pester Xia Yuhui.

"Sigh, I really admire you. Take this for self-defense. Don't wander around the market, and don't trust anyone except your own clansmen." Although Xia Yuhui had told her to leave earlier, he still took out the flying sword he had just forged from his storage bag and handed it to her.

"Alright, alright, you say that all day long. I hear it hundreds of times a day here." Xia Yurou immediately took it with delight, but then her face showed impatience, and she said coldly.

At this moment, another person rushed into the house. This person was dressed in a flawless white robe, with a handsome face and an aura of otherworldly grace that inspired awe. He was none other than Xia Yuhua, the eldest brother of the Yu generation.

"You brat, you've taken Fifth Brother's things again." He scolded Xia Yurou as soon as he appeared.

Xia Yurou: "This is a gift from Fifth Brother out of his care for me. How could I refuse it?"

"Are you looking for another beating?"

Xia Yuhui: "Alright, alright, elder brother, I just forged this flying sword, so I'll give it to Thirteen Sister."

Upon hearing Xia Yuhui say that he had refined it himself, Xia Yuhua's expression softened slightly. She ignored Xia Yurou and quickly pulled Xia Yuhui into a room, where she brewed him a cup of spiritual tea.

Xia Yuhui immediately picked up the teacup, took a small sip, and felt refreshed. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Excellent tea!"

"Of course, this spiritual tea costs five spirit stones per pound. I can only drink a few cups every few years. Since you are here today, I will brew some more. Last time, that girl Yu Rou stole a few cups from me, which made me so angry that I could not concentrate on my cultivation for several days."

"Hehehe, elder brother, as an alchemist capable of refining mid-grade pills, why are you so stingy with these few spirit stones? Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by your second brother?"

"Sigh, the well-fed don't know the hunger of the starving. Brother, although I can refine mid-grade pills, I'm not skilled enough yet. I can barely break even. Where would I get so many spirit stones to squander? Let's not talk about that. Weren't you supposed to be guarding Wulan Mountain? Why are you here with me all this time?"

"Ahem! I bought some items at the market and came here to take a look."

"Xiao Wu, why have you come to this humble abode? Did you come here specifically to visit me?" Just as the two were chatting happily, footsteps suddenly came from outside, followed by several rough voices.

The visitor did not knock, but pushed the door open and entered. An elderly man with graying temples, reeking of alcohol, strolled in.

This is Xia Guangchang, the second elder of the family. He is at the ninth level of Qi Refining and is a first-class high-grade alchemist. He is also the person with the highest alchemy skills in the family.

However, in recent years, he has devoted all his time to alchemy, and although he is now over seventy years old, he is no longer capable of achieving the Foundation Establishment stage.

Upon seeing this, the two immediately stood up and bowed. Xia Guangchang, however, plopped down next to them and said in a deep voice, "Alright, alright, stop with the formalities. I hate these things the most. You two dare to drink spiritual tea here behind my back. Quickly pour me some more."

Xia Yuhua hurriedly poured him tea. He was quite afraid of this elder because he had learned alchemy from Xia Guangchang.

In the past, when Xia Guangchang taught him the method of alchemy, if he made any mistakes, the old man would beat him mercilessly, which left a shadow in his heart.

After drinking a cup of cool tea to his heart's content, Xia Guangchang said to Xia Yuhui, "Xiao Wu, weren't you supposed to be guarding a certain place? Why are you here? You must be careful and make no mistakes. Return quickly later. If anything goes wrong, Lao San will definitely not let you off the hook."
