Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law-Chapter 763 - 762: Gathering Hand Seals

Ji Zhong was rapidly forming seal formations with his hands, imbuing his Divine Instrument Embryo with one after another.

As the energy of the seal formations continuously poured in, the Divine Instrument Embryo began to emit a dazzling radiance.

It had to be said that Ji Zhong’s refinement level was indeed strong, with his strength, it didn’t seem difficult for him to craft a Semi-Divine Artifact.

Elsewhere, other participants also began to form their seal formations.

Ranked second was Yao Feifei, who had also started forming seal formations, and her speed was in no way slower than Ji Zhong’s.

Although Yao Feifei was quite arrogant, her artifact refining level was truly extraordinary.

The one ranked third caught Xu Ping’an by surprise, yes, it was Zhang Zhantian.

At this moment, Zhang Zhantian was truly displaying his artifact refining skills, showing a remarkable refining capability.

Moreover, his seal formation techniques were extremely swift, even faster than the others by a significant margin.

The Divine Sword he was crafting turned out to be a Heavy Sword, edgeless and immensely thick.

The trait he incorporated was also incredibly powerful, being that of gravity.

That is to say, a slash from the sword felt as though a colossal mountain was pressing down.

Such a trait was very much in line with the characteristics of a Heavy Sword.

However, to condense a gravity trait was not an easy task; it required an extremely proficient mastery of seal formations.

Zhang Zhantian achieving this indicated that his artifact refining level was in no way inferior to Yao Feifei’s.

Fourth was the individual known as Wu Bing, who appeared to be very calm by nature, quietly refining his artifact.

Although his artifact refining level could not compare to Yao Feifei and the others, he had already reached the threshold for crafting Semi-Divine Artifacts.

Even if he could not take first place this time, given enough time, he could also become a formidable Divine Artifact Refiner in the future.

Dongfang Qingxue had also caught up, performing very well this time with a great chance of successfully crafting a Semi-Divine Artifact.

As for Liu Han and Chi Yun, there was no hope for them in artifact refining divine artifacts.

Previously, Xu Ping’an had observed that these two had already sown seeds of disaster during the impurity refinement phase.

To craft a Semi-Divine Artifact, the required refinement level far exceeded that of a Superior Grade Immortal Artifact.

Yet it was evident that both had failed to realize this.

"Crack!"

As Chi Yun’s seal formation impacted his Divine Instrument Embryo, it instantly shattered apart.

"Chi Yun is eliminated," the Fifth Elder announced without a trace of compassion.

Following the Fifth Elder’s announcement, Chi Yun’s complexion turned ashen.

He was the first to be eliminated.

At that thought, he involuntarily looked towards Xu Ping’an.

Presently, Xu Ping’an was steadily forming seal formations, and although the process wasn’t fast, it was orderly and systematic.

"Hmph, I want to see when you’ll fail," Chi Yun sneered, then retreated to the outskirts of the arena.

The crowd was not surprised by Chi Yun’s failure.

After all, Chi Yun’s strength had not reached the realm of a Semi-Divine Artifact Refiner.

They just did not expect that Chi Yun would be the first to be eliminated.

"It seems that Chi Yun is no big deal after all," Gongsun Yao huffed lightly.

She was quite displeased with him as well.

"Being able to reach the level of a Superior Grade Artifact Refiner is already commendable; it would naturally be impossible for him to succeed with a Semi-Divine Artifact," Yu Xianlan said with a smile.

"Xianlan, do you think Xu Ping’an will succeed?" Gongsun Yao asked out of curiosity.

"He probably will, since he dared to make the bet, he must be confident," Yu Xianlan replied.

"Hmm, his personality shouldn’t be impulsive, but the amount of soul power required to refine a semi-divine artifact is just too great. I feel that it will be difficult for him to persevere," Gongsun Yao shook her head as she spoke.

"I believe in him," Yu Xianlan replied directly without saying much more.

Hearing this, Gongsun Yao did not elaborate further.

After all, Xu Ping’an was someone who could create miracles; perhaps he could pull it off again this time, seizing first place.

By doing so, he would obtain the divine fire and fully eliminate the toxins from his body.

At the thought, Gongsun Yao couldn’t help but blush.

"Liu Han eliminated!"

Just then, the Fifth Elder made the announcement once again.

As the voice sounded, everyone noticed that Liu Han’s divine artifact had completely shattered.

Seeing this, many sighed in regret.

Such a waste of two pieces of divine artifact material. Once refined, these materials could no longer be reused.

Liu Han, however, did not seem disappointed. He had known from the start that he could not refine a semi-divine artifact, so he had not harbored much hope.

Consequently, only seven people, including Xu Ping’an, remained in the arena.

As time passed, the atmosphere in the venue gradually tensed.

The onlookers carefully watched the seven contestants, curious about who would ultimately win first place.

"Look, Ji Zhong has already formed fifty seals. The further you go, the more difficult it gets, especially after the seventieth seal. Each additional seal requires a significant amount of soul power," an artifact refiner, who admired Ji Zhong, exclaimed in awe.

The crowd turned their gaze towards Ji Zhong, their eyes filled with a mix of surprise and admiration.

At that moment, Ji Zhong appeared calm and collected, showing no signs of fatigue.

Obviously, forming fifty seals was no challenge for him.

Time flew swiftly by.

Ji Zhong had completed the overlay of 84 seals, but he did not stop there.

"Good heavens, he’s still adding seals. Does he intend to refine a higher-quality semi-divine artifact?" The crowd was astonished.

Ji Zhong indeed didn’t hold back.

"Look, Yao Feifei has also reached 84 seals, and she hasn’t stopped either," someone in the crowd exclaimed once again.

Everyone was amazed at the capabilities of these two individuals.

Zhang Zhantian could only shake his head in resignation, stopping after completing 84 seals.

As for Wu Bing, he seemed to have met some troubles, his soul power clearly struggling to keep up.

Ultimately, he failed at the 84th seal, causing the entire divine instrument embryo to explode.

Thus, Wu Bing was eliminated.

Standing before his ruined creation, Wu Bing left without uttering a single word.

Dongfang Qingxue was also struggling immensely but managed to complete the 84th seal by a narrow margin.

As for Xu Ping’an, he didn’t stop after completing the 84 seals either.

His aim was 95 seals, and at that moment, he still had plenty of leeway.

"Look, Ji Zhong has stopped. Oh my, he has actually finished 89 seals."

"Yao Feifei has stopped too. She has formed 88 seals."

The crowd couldn’t stop exclaiming.

For a while, all eyes were fixed on Xu Ping’an.

Clearly, they were all curious to see how many seals Xu Ping’an could form.
