The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood-Chapter 1074 - 1075: Ancient Immortal Artifact

"Marvelous, marvelous. So, it turns out the seven Ancient Evil Weapons are not the strongest Immortal Artifacts. From ages immemorial, who could compete?"

The old man in the red robe smiled as he stroked his beard, seemingly pleased that the records in the book aligned with his thoughts.

"Legends have it that Immortal Artifacts from the eternal ages are known as the Ancient Immortal Artifacts. Due to their ancient birth, their Artifact Spirits have absorbed cultivation for far longer than the Ancient Immortal Artifacts, making them much more powerful."

The old man in the red robe nodded again. The eternal ages, who knows when it was, whether ten thousand years ago or a hundred thousand years ago, no one knows.

In those times, although the materials and craftsmanship for creating treasures were not as advanced as now, the Artifact Spirits could survive for hundreds of thousands or even millions of years, which made them far superior to the Ancient Artifact Spirits.

Naturally, the power of the Ancient Immortal Artifacts is much greater than that of the Ancient Immortal Artifacts.

"Currently, only two Ancient Immortal Artifacts have been recorded: one is the Solitary Darkness Cloak, once worn by the Mo Clan chief of ancient times, now lost to history; the other is the Tyrant’s Blade, an Evil Weapon used in ancient times to quell wars."

The old man in the red robe nodded again, noting down the forms of these two Ancient Immortal Artifacts as recorded above.

He could refine Immortal Artifacts and had also studied the Ancient Immortal Artifacts, spending considerable time on the Crimson Shadow Enchanting Disc among the seven Ancient Evil Weapons. However, he never had the opportunity to witness the Ancient Immortal Artifacts.

"If I could see an Ancient Immortal Artifact, perhaps my Artifact Refining Technique could take another step forward."

The old man sighed inwardly, then closed the book and put it away.

"You three, all go back."

The old man looked at the three people and said indifferently.

"Master Zi Qi, I obtained an Ancient Immortal Artifact in an ancient vestige. It’s a Blazing Soaring Fan that can unleash flames with the might to burn the sky and destroy the ground. Unfortunately, it’s broken in half. I beseech Master Zi Qi to repair it for me."

Faced with the clan’s only Ninth-Order Refinement Master, Zixing’s face was full of respect.

Not to mention Zixing, even Zi Kui would be humble before him.

"The Blazing Soaring Fan? In ancient times, it was the weapon of Young Master Pleasure."

Master Zi Qi indeed got interested in Zixing’s weapon and could not help but beckon, saying, "Quick, let me see it."

Zixing looked at Ye Mo and Zi Ning with pride, as if showing off.

Passing the broken Blazing Soaring Fan to Zi Qi, Master Zi Qi caressed it, nodded, and then said to Zixing, "Indeed, it is the Blazing Soaring Fan, containing the Pleasure Flame, and the fire is quite violent. If the fan could be reforged, I am confident I could restore it to its peak power."

"Master Zi Qi, if you need any materials, I can help you gather them right away."

Zixing said.

"No need, do you think I lack materials?"

Master Zi Qi said, turning his gaze to Ye Mo and Zi Ning: "You two should go back."

As his words fell, Zixing’s spirit lifted, watching Ye Mo and Zi Ning with a heavier satirical expression.

The two of them were shining stars in the Ancient Azure Dragon Clan, which made him long displeased. Seeing them thwarted now, he naturally felt very delighted.

Zi Ning frowned and said, "Master Zi Qi, Ye Mo obtained a treasure with a shattered Artifact Spirit. I hope you can help repair this treasure’s spirit for him."

"Haha, Zi Ning, as if Master Zi Qi has the leisure to help you repair the Artifact Spirit."

Zixing immediately spoke up, seizing the opportunity to ridicule them again.

"Enough, Zi Ning, I know your son has unusual natural talents. With your abilities, finding an Immortal Artifact for him should be no problem, right? You two should leave; I need to start researching the Blazing Soaring Fan. I need more inspiration to enhance my Artifact Refining Technique."

Master Zi Qi stood up and issued the order to send them away again.

"Yes, Elder Zi Ning, and our little genius, Master Zi Qi is going to study my Blazing Soaring Fan. We should leave."

Zixing said with a smile.

"Master Zi Qi, could you reconsider?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Zi Ning said, her brows furrowing.

Bang!

Suddenly, Master Zi Qi slapped the nearby fire pit, showing his anger, "Do you still need me to issue another order to leave?"

At this, even Zixing was startled, not expecting Master Zi Qi to be so angry, though he secretly chuckled on the side.

At that moment, Ye Mo stepped forward.

"Master Zi Qi, this treasure of mine should pique your interest."

In an instant, the Solitary Darkness Cloak appeared in Ye Mo’s hand.

From his observations, Ye Mo was sure that Master Zi Qi was fascinated by strange and peculiar treasures. He believed that his Solitary Darkness Cloak was more remarkable than Zixing’s Blazing Soaring Fan.

Seeing the Solitary Darkness Cloak in Ye Mo’s hand, Master Zi Qi’s once angry expression froze in place, unable to react for a long time.

"Mother, we should leave. It seems Master Zi Qi isn’t interested in my treasure."

Ye Mo shook his head, putting away the Solitary Darkness Cloak, unwilling to let his mother suffer more from this old man’s temper.

"Wait!"

Master Zi Qi immediately snapped back, speaking to Ye Mo excitedly, "Would you take out that cloak once more for me to examine?"

"Does he really recognize this cloak?"

Ye Mo’s heart stirred, and he brought out the cloak again, handing it to Zi Qi.

Zi Qi’s withered hands started caressing the Solitary Darkness Cloak, and his eyes began to moisten. He never imagined he would encounter an Ancient Immortal Artifact.

"Ye Mo, where did you get this cloak?"

Zi Qi asked curiously.

"Master Zi Qi, don’t ask about its origin. The cloak’s Artifact Spirit is shattered now. Can you repair it, or should I seek another weapon forger?"

Ye Mo had already discerned that Zi Qi recognized the Solitary Darkness Cloak, and it was indeed a rare treasure.

"How dare you."

At this moment, Zixing coldly harrumphed at Ye Mo, "You brat, Master Zi Qi is asking you a question – you should feel honored, yet you act so boldly."

"Elder Zixing, take your Blazing Soaring Fan with you."

Master Zi Qi tossed the Blazing Soaring Fan back to Zixing as if it were garbage.

"What?"

Upon hearing this, Zixing’s face instantly showed an expression of disbelief. Previously, Master Zi Qi was filled with interest in his fan, but now it was being treated as trash.

"Haven’t you understood my meaning yet?"

Master Zi Qi’s face showed a hint of anger. He was now eager to study the Solitary Darkness Cloak, which was an Ancient Immortal Artifact. Compared to it, the Blazing Soaring Fan was insignificant.

"Hmph!"

Zixing snorted coldly, flicking his sleeves as he left the cave. In his view, Ye Mo must have presented a treasure even rarer than his Blazing Soaring Fan; otherwise, Master Zi Qi wouldn’t have shown such an expression.

Even so, he had suffered a hidden loss and his anger towards Ye Mo escalated to the extreme.

"Once the patriarch’s time is up, let’s see how long you mother and daughter can continue prancing around!"

Zixing’s face twisted into a sinister smile.
