Chapter 375: Phantom Beasts Artifact
“Master Su is not going to leave now, right?”
Feng Qingya’s gaze shifted towards Su Jingzhen after their conversation.
She felt that Su Jingzhen had made up his mind.
Without waiting for Su Jingzhen’s response, Feng Qingya continued, “Perhaps Master Su can discuss the details of this collaboration with Qingya. It’s been a long time since Master Su last stayed with Qingya.
Besides, if Master Su waits a little longer, there might be another surprise.”
As she spoke, Feng Qingya winked at Su Jingzhen once more.
After a moment of contemplation, Su Jingzhen nodded.
Having only recently arrived at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, he had already accumulated a significant amount of points.
Moreover, there were no pressing matters requiring his attention at the moment. Therefore, staying here for a while would not be inconvenient and might even yield more points.
Under Feng Qingya’s guidance, Su Jingzhen returned to the familiar private room.Feng Qingya remained nonchalantly lounging on the luxurious chair.
Despite her more formal attire, her perfect figure was still evident.
Under different circumstances, Feng Qingya’s current state would undoubtedly be an irresistible temptation for most young men.
However, Su Jingzhen was now surrounded by women of Feng Qingya’s caliber. Furthermore, he already had an intimate relationship with Luo Yuebai, which had bolstered his resistance to such temptations.
Noticing Su Jingzhen’s calm demeanor, Feng Qingya felt a hint of surprise.
She proceeded to prepare tea for Su Jingzhen.
The tantalizing aroma of the tea soon filled the private room.
Feng Qingya leaned in and poured a cup of tea for Su Jingzhen.
Her snow-white neck unintentionally came into view, capturing Su Jingzhen’s attention.
“This tea is so white…” Su Jingzhen blurted out.
Feng Qingya’s smile remained unchanged: “Would Master Su like to close the door and savor it?”
Feng Qingya continued to tease Su Jingzhen.
Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen curved the corners of his mouth into a faint smile.
“Is it like the last time in Su’s room?” he said, with a hint of mockery. “Does Miss Feng still wish to waste another high-level escape talisman?”
Su Jingzhen was well-aware of Feng Qingya’s character. Although they were currently on good terms, he knew that Feng Qingya was, and always had been, a businesswoman.
Consequently, Su Jingzhen held different attitudes towards Feng Qingya and Luo Yuebai.
In uncertain situations, Su Jingzhen would not easily take the bait.
After all, as a Demon Sect’s Chief Saintess, Luo Yuebai was much more carefree in such matters than Feng Qingya.
Luo Yuebai would fight for what she liked, while Feng Qingya would weigh the pros and cons.
Hearing Su Jingzhen’s words, Feng Qingya’s smile faltered slightly. She awkwardly chuckled, “Perhaps this time, Qingya won’t need the talisman.”
Su Jingzhen sipped his tea and remained silent on the topic.
Seeing his reaction, Feng Qingya curiously asked, “Master Su and Sect Master Yuebai relationship seems rather unique.
It doesn’t seem like a normal superior-subordinate relationship…
Qingya thinks her relationship with Master Su is quite good, but Master Su has never addressed me as Qingya.”
Although her tone appeared casual and unconcerned, she was actually extremely curious.
The last time on Clear Wind Mountain, Su Jingzhen had directly addressed Luo Yuebai as Yuebai. She had realized then that their relationship was extraordinary.
Su Jingzhen chuckled, “Whatever Young Lady Feng thinks the relationship is, that’s what it is. It doesn’t matter.”
Feng Qingya asked delicately, and Su Jingzhen answered enigmatically. However, Feng Qingya had obtained the answer she wanted.
For some reason, she felt a strange sensation in her heart, a hint of disappointment.
She wanted to say something more, but it seemed difficult to express.
She sighed and stopped discussing the topic with Su Jingzhen.
She actually began discussing the collaboration with Su Jingzhen in a proper manner.
However, just then, Feng Qingya suddenly received a message. Her expression returned to its usual composure. She looked at Su Jingzhen, “The surprise I mentioned earlier has already produced results.”
Su Jingzhen looked at her in surprise.
He probably guessed what Feng Qingya’s surprise referred to.
After all, his concerns in the Treasure Gathering Pavilion were not significant.
Without waiting for Su Jingzhen’s response, Feng Qingya smiled, “The items have already been delivered. Let’s take a look together.”
…
In a secret room, an old and a young man stood there respectfully.
In front of them was a large black box.
As Su Jingzhen and Feng Qingya entered, the white-haired old man respectfully bowed to Feng Qingya.
“Miss, I have fulfilled my promise. Please inspect the goods.”
Su Jingzhen looked at the black box on the ground and his expression filled with anticipation.
If everything went as planned, this should be the artifact he had asked Feng Qingya to craft using the Phantom Beast hide and Phantom Beast demonic core.
Hearing the old man’s words, Feng Qingya smiled.
She pointed at the old man and introduced him to Su Jingzhen, “Master Chen Bingyan, a peak Four-grade weapon refiner from Treasure Gathering Pavilion!
He is also the strongest weapon refiner I could find for Master Su in such a short time.”
Su Jingzhen bowed in salute. The status of a fourth-grade weapon refiner is equivalent to that of a fourth-grade alchemist.
The Refiner, Alchemist, and Array Master professions were all highly respected in the cultivation world.
Even such a top-tier Four-grade weapon refiner showed great respect in his demeanor upon meeting Feng Qingya.
Su Jingzhen was aware of Treasure Gathering Pavilion’s reputation, and it seemed to be even deeper than what he had encountered before.
Upon Feng Qingya’s self-introduction, the white-haired old man smiled gently and nodded at Su Jingzhen.
“Grandmaster Chen, showcase the extraordinary artifact you’ve crafted for us.”
As soon as Feng Qingya’s voice faded, the young man in green next to Chen Bingyan respectfully opened the black box.
A faint silver glow flashed through the secret room, and then a pale silver robe appeared before Su Jingzhen and the others.
As the young man exhibited the robe, Chen Bingyan’s eyes unconsciously revealed a hint of satisfaction.
“The phantom beast hide was incredibly intact, and its primordial spirit patterns and magical beast core were also extremely perfect.
During the crafting process, I made minimal modifications to it. The robe inherits most of the phantom beast’s original abilities.
Specifically, the ability to turn invisible!”
Upon hearing Chen Bingyan’s words, Su Jingzhen’s heart suddenly moved.
The ability to turn invisible was what he hoped to preserve the most.
However, before Su Jingzhen and Feng Qingya could respond, Chen Bingyan added:
“Regrettably, with my abilities, I could only preserve 70% of the phantom beast’s original abilities.
The invisibility may not be perfect when in use. However, to compensate for the lost abilities, I’ve inscribed some defensive patterns on it.
As a result, this robe not only grants the user a portion of the invisibility ability but also possesses defensive and damage reduction effects.
Attacks from Golden Core cultivators and below can be deflected by at least 40%, while those from Golden Core to Nascent Soul cultivators might be deflected by 1-2%.
As for those powerful Nascent Soul cultivators and above, this robe would be of no use.”
Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen and Feng Qingya were both extremely astonished.
Even the attacks of Nascent Soul cultivators could be deflected by 1-2%. At least within the Qingzhou region, such an artifact could be considered priceless.
After a pause, Chen Bingyan continued:
“Moreover, for convenience, I’ve inscribed several changeable patterns on it. Therefore, this robe can be worn as ordinary clothing in the future without any issues.”
“Of course, the exact abilities can only be determined through personal experience.”
As he finished speaking, the gazes of the few people in the secret room focused on Su Jingzhen. Even Feng Qingya’s eyes held a touch of envy.
Even if they possessed the strength to kill phantom beasts, such beasts were rare and hard to come by.
Even if they encountered and killed one, others wouldn’t have the ability to completely and perfectly purify the magical beast core.
Therefore, Su Jingzhen’s robe might be the only one of its kind. At least within the Qingzhou region.
