Chapter 797: New Broadsword with Wind CC Effects
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Yi had placed the Purple broadsword with wind CC effects in the care of Snickersnee for an upgrade. Counting down the time, it had been more than six months now.
There was a difference between upgrading and forging a weapon. Forging a weapon was straightforward as with enough materials, a weapon could be forged in a matter of hours. Upgrading was a different story as it was not only troublesome, it was also time-consuming.
Only a God-tiered Ironsmith Master had the right to upgrade weapons, making this an ability unique to God-tiered Ironsmiths. Other Ironsmiths who had yet to reach God tier would not have the right to upgrade weapons.
Upgrading weapons required a large number of precious materials. After the materials were fully gathered, a God-tiered Ironsmith would then combine the weapon and materials into a furnace, heating them with a mild fire daily until the weapon was reconstructed.
During this process, apart from adding in new materials daily, controlling the fire’s intensity proved to be essential. It could not be too high or too low. The fire must be just right to gradually melt the weapon.
Li Yi entered the Ironsmithy and saw Snickersnee baring his upper body while adding materials into the furnace.
A long time had passed yet his Purple broadsword with wind CC effects had yet to take shape.
Snickersnee curled his lips into a good-natured smile when he saw Li Yi. “Another two hours and it should be done.”
Following the regular upgrading flow, the complete transformation would take a month at most. However, due to Snickersnee’s insistence on a better upgrade for the Purple broadsword with wind CC effects, it had been delayed until now.
Li Yi smiled and nodded in response before standing aside to quietly wait.
After a brief greeting, Snickersnee continued with his work. He wasn’t just upgrading Li Yi’s weapon. Apart from this, he still had the task of upgrading a large number of weapons every day.
“Clang clang clang clang clang...”
A repetitive and rhythmic iron forging sound rang in his ear as it echoed inside the Ironsmithy.
While Li Yi waiting, The Cat that Sings sent a message to ask when he would depart.
“Two hours later!” Was Li Yi’s answer.
“No problem, I’ll have that idiot go over.”
The Cat that Sings called The Mountain to help Li Yi, but she was not participating at The Mountain’s request. He would never party with Sister Cat.
After the conversation with The Cat that Sings, Li Yi sent a party request to The Mountain.
The Mountain accepted and thus a party was formed.
The Mountain said in the Party Channel, “Who would have thought a big shot like Dark Wing would request for my help? I’m flattered.”
Li Yi chuckled, not adding to the remark. Instead, he asked him, “How’s your Ancient Equipment Set going?”
There was a brief silence before The Mountain was heard replying in surprise, “How did you know I was doing an Ancient Equipment Set?”
“You’ve been camping the Deathwing dungeon every day, if it’s not for an Ancient Equipment Set, I don’t know what’s else.”
“Sigh, I knew it, walls have ears. I thought no one would find out I’m gathering the Ancient Equipment Set. I didn’t think... Sigh.
“I have five pieces; I still need four more for a complete set.”
Li Yi posed another question. “Have you learned the Level 98 skill?”
The Mountain was quiet. He was not heard from for a while.
It was some time before The Mountain spitefully answered, “Did you investigate me or something?”
“Nope.”
“Then how did you know I know the Level 98 skill? F*ck, how did you know about the Natural Summoners’ Level 98 skill?”
“You want to know? Help me with this dungeon and I’ll tell you.”
Li Yi turned off the communications and ignored The Mountain.
Natural Summoners had an extremely unique skill that could be learned at Level 98. It was still a secret in this life and had yet to be made public. However, King of Pantheon had a long run of eight years in his past life, so this was no secret then.
According to legend, The Mountain was known to be ferocious mainly because of the Level 98 skill.
If it were not for The Mountain mastering the Level 98 skill, Li Yi would not ask for his help in conquering the dungeon.
The Natural Summoner’s Level 98 skill was rare. In the beginning, Li Yi had Chen Yang play as a Natural Summoner for the sake of this skill. However, a long time had passed, and Chen Yang had not mastered the Level 98 skill. He would not have sought out The Mountain if he had.
Two hours went by quickly and the Purple broadsword with wind CC effects on the furnace was showing signs of transformation.
“Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!”
With sparks flying from the furnace, Snickersnee immediately brought his hammer over. He picked up the sizzling red metal with a pair of pliers before placing it on an anvil for hammering.
“Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Sparks were spewing as Snickersnee hammered on. A dazzling rainbow glow began to hover over the red metal.
It was not an act of upgrading, Snickersnee was re-forging the Purple broadsword with wind CC effects!
“Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!”
With the speed of Snickersnee’s hammering increased, the hammer in his hands fell like raindrops onto the sizzling red metal. This segment was most important as the work done now would decide the chances of it becoming a divine weapon.
The speed of a God-tiered Ironsmith Master swinging a hammer was by no means insignificant. Li Yi who was observing nearby gasped in admiration. A mad man like Snickersnee was rare to find.
Snickersnee hammered on for half an hour before the reforged broadsword took shape. Its thin but straight body was a meter and a half in length. It was an eye-catching and cool-looking sword own.
Snickersnee took a look at the attributes and nodded satisfyingly. He then traded the broadsword with wind CC effects to Li Yi.
“It’s finally done, hehe.”

...
Li Yi swung the Orange broadsword, firing a windblade from the Ironsmithy to a tree outside.
Kch tst!
The tree was cut in half. The top half fell and became timber.
The impact of the Orange broadsword’s windblade was similar to the blade aura of the Tuhr Sacred Sword.
Li Yi caressed his Orange broadsword as he thanked Snickersnee. “They’re really good attributes, thank you.”
“You’re welcome.” Flashing an honest smile, Snickersnee carried his hammer to work on other weapons.
The attributes had gone up after Snickersnee’s reforging. The most apparent spots were two. One was the ability to fire windblades and the other was the two thirds reduction of cooldown periods, a significant change from the previous 50%.
What did this mean? Taking the special effect, God’s Protection on Sacramental Stone as an example, the originally 30-minute resurrection at full health and stats was now 10 minutes with the new Orange broadsword equipped.
10 minutes for each resurrection at full health and stats was a big deal...
This recast was more than worth it!
Storing his Orange broadsword, Li Yi did not waste a minute to teleport out of the guild map and rush to the North Pole Continent.
When Li Yi made it to the Tomb of Kings, he found The Mountain holding his Orange Quality Quarterstaff in a tight embrace as he leaned on the dungeon’s entrance, catching some sleep.
Li Yi did not know that The Mountain was forced out of slumber by Sister Cat’s phone call and had waited more than three hours at the entrance. Bored and tired out of wits was how he ended up in such a situation.
“Wake up, hey!”
Li Yi used the Orange broadsword’s handle to poke The Mountain, prompting The Mountain to shudder and awake from his sleep.
The Mountain gazed to his left and right. “Just us two?”
Li Yi nodded.
As Li Yi walked into the Tomb of Kings, The Mountain fell deep into thought before following in.
Different from the four previous dungeons, the Tomb of Kings was a summary of the other dungeons. In this dungeon, there was no such thing as monsterlings. Instead, players would face a total of twenty-four immortal bosses.
The Tomb of Kings was a 50-man party. Advancing ahead would soon find one in the presence of a magnificent hall. There were twenty-four boss statues in that hall. These were the same bosses that had been defeated within the other twenty-four dungeons.
The Frost Emperor, Fire Emperor, Sky Emperor, Night Emperor, etc. were gathered here. Players needed to challenge them one by one and kill them all before the final boss of the dungeon would make its appearance.
“What a grand scene.” The Mountain gasped at the sight of the twenty-four statues.
“I’ll take care of them myself. Your turn will come when the final boss appears.”
The Mountain was stunned. “You don’t need my help for the first twenty-four bosses?”
Li Yi nodded.
“You’ve fought the final boss before?”
Li Yi nodded again. The Mountain would be suspicious if he were to admit otherwise. To prevent assumptions, he told a white lie.
The Mountain blinked his eyes. “What’s the final boss like? Why must it be me?”
Li Yi moved forth and answered, “Similar to Deathwing.”
The Mountain could not take it. “Brother, I’m just an ordinary player, can you not investigate me?”
“Those who dare intrude in my tomb will die!”
Out of the twenty-four statues, the Frost Emperor was the first to revive. Holding a Frost Sword, it charged towards Li Yi.
Compared to the 5-man dungeon’s Frost Emperor, the current Frost Emperor exceeded the former in both SPD and HP.
Apart from rapid speed, it could also unleash its Frost Territory.
It caused a heavy chill to blow against the party’s faces. While the Frost Emperor’s Frost Territory may not be as huge as Li Yi’s Territory, but its coverage was enough to wrap Hall of Kings.
The Mountain waved his Orange Quality Quarterstaff, shouting, “I can’t take it if you can’t.”
“Shooting Star Arrow Hail!”
Bp bp bp bp bp bp...
Li Yi shot a round of Shooting Star Arrow Hail, instantly finishing off the Frost Emperor.
The Mountain watched with his jaw dropped. It was long before he could squeeze a sentence out. “This doesn’t make sense.”
The Frost Emperor turned back into a statue, dying in erecting position. Next was the revival of the Fire Emperor who immediately unleashed its Flame Territory that engulfed the entire hall.
“This doesn’t make sense!”
A minute later, The Mountain blurted again.
