Chapter 377: Chapter 77: Niu San’s Fiancee

The temperature in this cave was actually extremely high.

Apart from Lin Jing and Yan Wanfei, who could withstand it due to their body refining,

Lu Youjiu and Holaw Three Rivers had already condensed a protective layer on the surface of their bodies, wrapping themselves up.

Yan Wanfei, looking at Lu Youjiu, excitedly asked,

“Brother Jiu, didn’t you say that this Earth Flame Spring can help with body refining?”

“Then, doesn’t that mean I can cultivate here in the future?”

Lu Youjiu nodded and said,

“That’s right…”

“However, if you want to refine your body, you have to jump into this Earth Flame Spring. The deeper you go, the hotter it becomes. As long as you reach a point that you can bear, you can cultivate there for a while and enhance your physique.”

“I should warn you in advance; this body refining process is not easy.”

After listening, Yan Wanfei hurriedly spoke up,

“No problem, it’s just a bit of pain, right? Old Niu here has thick skin and flesh; I’m not afraid of pain.”

Lu Youjiu nodded and then added,

“Alright, as long as you’re not afraid of pain…”

At this moment,

Holaw Three Rivers looked at the Earth Flame Spring and chimed in.

“This Earth Flame Spring is not only for refining the body, but it’s also an excellent place for artifact refining.”

At that point, Yan Wanfei suddenly said,

“Speaking of artifact refining, it reminds me…”

“Brother Lin, I’ve seen your Flying Sword; it’s still just a top-notch Magic Artifact. It might be time for a change.”

As soon as Yan Wanfei finished speaking, Lu Youjiu also looked towards Lin Jing and said,

“Brother Lin…”

“Haven’t you always wanted a handy Magical Treasure Flying Sword?”

“What if I give you a Flying Sword?”

However, Lin Jing shook his head.

Then he began to explain,

“You’ve all seen my Flawless Sword; it’s completely transparent, formless and shadowless…”

“I practice a special sword cultivation technique, which works best with formless and shadowless swords, or else the power of the technique will be greatly diminished.”

“So, I want to find some transparent artifact refining materials to upgrade my Flawless Sword into a Magical Treasure.”

“I haven’t switched it yet because I haven’t found suitable materials.”

After listening, Lu Youjiu’s eyes narrowed slightly as he pondered for a while before speaking,

“Now that you mention it, it reminds me of someone.”

“Who, Brother Jiu?” Yan Wanfei asked, his face full of curiosity.

Holaw Three Rivers also looked puzzled as he glanced at Lu Youjiu.

Obviously.

He was also unaware of whom Lu Youjiu was referring to.

Lu Youjiu then said,

“Previously, in the Thousand Islands Domain, there was a Nascent Soul True Monarch who wielded a powerful sword cultivation technique demanding the use of a formless and shadowless sword.”

“That Nascent Soul True Monarch’s name…”

Lu Youjiu paused, looking up as he thought for a moment before continuing,

“I’ve forgotten his name, but he was known as Ling Yin True Monarch, and the sword technique he cultivated is called Lingyin Yu Jian Jue.”

Then, Lu Youjiu turned to Lin Jing and asked,

“The technique you’re cultivating, it wouldn’t happen to be the Lingyin Yu Jian Jue, would it?”

Lin Jing nodded and responded,

“I don’t mean to conceal it from you, Brother Lu, but the technique I am practicing is indeed the Lingyin Sword Technique.”

“I happened to come across it at an auction a long time ago, and quite recently, while I was pursuing the master of Yuxing Island, I found the remains of Ling Yin True Monarch and obtained the latter part of the Lingyin Yu Jian Jue.”

“That’s why I’ve decided to upgrade my Flawless Sword into a Magical Treasure to continue using it in conjunction with the Lingyin Yu Jian Jue.”

After hearing this, Lu Youjiu nodded,

“Hmm.”

“That does sound like a good plan…”

“By the way, have you collected any materials yet?”

“If not, I can help you.”

“Speaking of materials…”

Lin Jing suddenly remembered the nameless transparent material, which clearly was collected by Ling Yin True Monarch himself. Since he did not recognize the material, perhaps he could show it to the others.

They might know what it is.

So, Lin Jing said,

“There actually is one material, but I don’t know what it is. You guys could take a look…”

With that, Lin Jing took out the transparent artifact refining material of unknown nature from his Storage Bag.

Lin Jing handed the material to Lu Youjiu.

Lu Youjiu took the material and inspected it carefully.

Holaw Three Rivers and Yan Wanfei also came over to have a look.

The three of them observed it closely for a good while, but they could not provide an answer.

After a moment, Lu Youjiu asked Lin Jing,

“Have you tried using this material yet?”

Lin Jing shook his head and said,

“After I got this material, I just put it away and have not tried using it.”

Lu Youjiu nodded and then offered,

“Let me give it a try then.”

Having said that,

Lu Youjiu began to test it…

After some time of testing, Lu Youjiu returned the material to Lin Jing and said,

“This material is highly compatible with the Lingyin Yu Jian Jue you’re cultivating, but the grade of this material is not low. I suggest you not use it right now.”

“If this material is refined and integrated into the Magical Treasure, there’s a good chance it will directly upgrade the treasure to a Dao Artifact.”
