"Is my magic artifact almost complete?""Yes, the conceptual stage is nearly finished, and now I just need to precisely arrange the structure before starting the actual production.""Hmm..."I feel a subtle sense of anticipation.Although Im not interested in external items, Im curious about what kind of magic artifact she has created."Can you tell me what kind of magic artifact it is?""Ah, that's a secret. I'll let you know once I've completely laid out the structure.""Hmm... I see.""And, Daoist Seo, you have a task to do.""Oh?"She takes my hand and leads me to her workshop."Starting today, Daoist Seo will also learn to make magic artifacts.""Um...?""Didn't you stipulate that the magic artifact should be easy enough for you to make as well?"I let out a wry laugh."It seems that Miss Bulk wants to turn me into a craftsman to fulfill that condition.""Ahaha, don't worry. It's really not that hard. You'll be able to make my designed magic artifact on your own if you can manage

Like any other day in the desert, the sky is clear that day."Seo Eun-hyun, stop wandering around."I realize I have been aimlessly pacing in front of Cheon-saek City upon hearing Kim Young-hoon's reprimand."Sorry. I'm just... quite nervous.""What's there to be nervous about? You're ridiculous, really. Tsk tsk..."I sigh deeply.'Is this the right thing to do?'Is it right to offer my affections to someone?I've told you before, haven't I? There's no waste in the world, just things that haven't found their fate or connection.That means, if the right fate touches it, anything can become a beautiful craft. Right?I recalled her words.'Being with you is so comforting.'Its so peaceful and happy that sometimes it feels like a dream.I, who has always been abandoned by fate, realized through her words that the proper fate I had never reached was indeed with her.'Even if swept away by time, even if the connection eventually fades...'If the connection, the feelings, reach each other, c

When I open my eyes again, the surroundings have turned into a sea of blood."Uh...?"The only survivors are cultivators.The entire Cheon-saek City has crumbled, and all the mortals left nothing but white bones behind, their life forces rising into the sky and converging in the void.The area is filled with their blood.At least the cultivators seem unharmed, but the weaker Qi Refining cultivators begin to vomit blood, and their dantians burst open, spewing out spiritual power and life force into the sky."Stop... it...!"Cough, cough!I vomit blood and stand up.My whole body is aching.Looking around, Kim Young-hoon is spewing more blood than me, barely managing to stand."Didn't I tell you... to stop...!"Despite my shouts and swinging my Formless Sword, the Pure Spiritual Force and Gang Qi from my Inner Core are nearly depleted, causing the Formless Sword to disperse in the air.Yuan Li continues to activate the Blood Sacrifice Formation without paying any attention to me, absorb

Three days before Yuan Li's arrival."I will kill him."Cheongmun Jung-jin sighed softly as he looked at me.As the Core Formation cultivator who first discovered the Yuan Li massacre, Cheongmun Jung-jin was given temporary command of this Yuan Li hunting group.He looked at me with a dark expression and said,"I too want to tear that person to shreds. But we need a plan. Right now, although about 150 Core Formation cultivators have gathered, we've had little time to meet and discuss. To face that old monster... we need more time.""....""I fully understand that some of the Core Formation cultivators, including you, are blinded by rage. However, now is the time to unite our strength. Being uncooperative will only hinder us.""...My goal is to kill him.""...If the plan devised by the formation masters succeeds, we can be free from the terror caused by Yuan Li for a considerable amount of time. It would be even better if Yuan Li reaches the end of his lifespan during this period."Cle

I spend a long time looking at the blueprint of the Colorless Glass Sword, admiring the artwork she created. Even I, not well-versed in magic artifacts, am awestruck by its artistic structure. Its a great dharma treasure capable of enhancing the power of the Formless Sword to 100%, no, 120% of its potential. This is the blueprint of the dharma treasure she left behind.As I read the blueprint, tears stream down my cheeks uncontrollably. I sit by the grave for a long time, crying, laughing, and mourning. Then, as night falls and before the next day arrives, I set out for the Cheongmun Clan to attend Cheongmun Ryeong's funeral.Cheongmun Ryeong's funeral is held in a grand manner. He was the pride of the Cheongmun Clan, known as a prominent figure of the Qi Building stage. Being the nephew of the clan head Cheongmun Jung-jin, his funeral is conducted on a large scale under the clan head's direction.Numerous elders and senior members of the Cheongmun Clan, along with upper-level cul
