Of course, the requirement for the sword would not just be to be able to cut through metal as if it were mud. Instead, it would be a usable sword that was allowed by the rules to transmit spiritual power and elements. He was not too sure what standard this was in the divine territory. He had to ask Jhonas about the specifics.
When Jhonas returned at night and heard Lao Wang's request, Flying Pig felt slightly awkward.
"I'm proficient in illusory equipment, not weapons …" He had been bragging in front of Lao Wang recently. In the end, when Lao Wang opened his mouth, he revealed his true colors.
"Aren't you in the Equipment Refinery Hall? Don't you have a lover? " Lao Wang was trying to save himself in a roundabout way. He did not need Jhonas to do it. "What about your friends from the Illusion race?"
"Find someone else?" Jhonas choked. He simply could not bear to hurt him. "Boss, I'm not trying to hurt you, but you want a custom-made item. Custom-Made items are different from mass-produced items …"
"How are they different?"
"Ahem, about this … Money …" Flying Pig shrugged his shoulders helplessly.
Custom-Made weapons were the same as pill refinery. They were both aristocratic games and luxuries. Furthermore, they had to bear Wang Zhong's spiritual power and transmit elements. Just the transmission of elements required at least level-7 and above. Materials, labor, and reputation were indispensable.
When he heard the price Jhonas quoted, Lao Wang broke out in a cold sweat. A million Silver Star Stones? Why didn't these equipment refiners rob banks? It was no wonder that Jhonas's Babi family could become a super financial group that was as wealthy as a country in the divine territory. To the current him, custom-made equipment was not something he could afford.
When he saw Lao Wang's disappointed expression, Jhonas could not bear it. "How about … I try it for you? I'll say this first, Boss. I have no confidence in custom-made equipment … "
"Alright, it's settled then!" Before Jhonas could finish speaking, Lao Wang had agreed rather straightforwardly. Damn, he had to make every possible effort.
Jhonas choked. He was just being polite and hurriedly added, "Ahem ahem, but you have to pay for the materials yourself, Boss …"
As expected of the heir of a financial group that was second to none in the divine territory. He was not stingy or stingy. With his family's wealth, he did not need to care about this. However, he had an innate sense of wealth. This was a belief of his race …
"No problem. Of course, I don't think that you will be too evil." Lao Wang laughed and looked at Flying Pig. He could not be too gentle with this roommate of his.
"F * ck, boss, what are you saying … I definitely wouldn't dare to do that. No, that's absolutely impossible!" Only then did Jhonas come back to his senses. He realized that his racial attribute had automatically come into play again. He felt a little like slapping himself. He was really too talkative. Why did he say that?
… …
He did not choose to help Lao Wang practice his swordsmanship on a whim.
As the heir of the Babi clan and a member of the Heavenly Gates Chamber of Commerce, Jhonas might not have had much power and influence before he had officially integrated the clan. However, in terms of information channels, he had no complaints.
Previously, he had said that he was going to help Lao Wang find out about Balor. The news had come a little late, but it was precisely because it was late that he had coincidentally heard some rather bad news.
The Blood Demon Race wanted to kill Wang Zhong, but they did not do it privately. Instead, they seemed to have prepared some methods and wanted to do it openly. After all, to a level-8 civilization, even if they were just a branch, a genius like Balor was not considered much. Most importantly, the reputation of the Blood Demon Race was as great as the sky.
If that was all, perhaps Jhonas would not be worried. After spending time with Wang Zhong, he could be considered one of the people in the Heavenly Gates who understood Wang Zhong rather well. If the Blood Demon Race carried out assassinations, a Foundational Stage would not be able to handle them. However, if they wanted to play tricks and attack openly … Jhonas believed that Wang Zhong would definitely have a way to deal with them.
However, the problem was that things were not that simple. Thanks to the powerful information network of the Babi clan, there was a piece of heavy news that truly made Jhonas fearful. Balor had an identity that was not well known. He was actually the illegitimate son of a great figure in the Fire Demon Race. This was also the reason why Balor was very well-regarded in the Blood Demon Race. It was not because he was very "strong". Most people in the Blood Demon Race gave in to him precisely because of this. If not, with Balor's natural endowments that could only allow him to enter the Combat Cultivation Hall, how could he have dared to be so arrogant in the Blood Demon Race? As a result, he developed a condescending personality.
Jhonas would probably have to change roommates in his dorm very soon.
Frankly speaking, even though they could not be considered as life-and-death buddies after spending some time with Lao Wang, they at least treated each other as good friends. If Lao Wang suddenly died, Jhonas would be rather reluctant to part with him. However, he did not say this to Wang Zhong. This kind of matter that involved other people's family ethics was definitely a huge taboo in the large families. If he spread this news everywhere, he would definitely anger the other party and seek death. As one of the few true level-8 civilizations in the Land, the Illusion race definitely could not afford to offend the Fire Demon Race. For the sake of a new friend, Jhonas could not drag his entire family down with him.
He could not possibly help Wang Zhong with this kind of matter. He could only help Wang Zhong forge a suitable weapon so that he would have more power to resist. This was the best explanation he could give to Wang Zhong as a friend.
Although he did not have the experience of refining pure combat equipment, he was a 'top student' in the Equipment Refinery Hall. He had a rather good understanding of the basic methods and requirements. Very quickly, he came up with a complete refinery plan for Lao Wang, including the grade of the equipment.
The idea was a level-9 sword-shaped equipment. It was not that he could not bear to use good materials to refine a higher grade, but Jhonas's own standards in refining combat equipment were limited. Furthermore, Wang Zhong was only in the Foundational Stage, so it was useless even if he was too outstanding. As for the transfer of elements, he could think of some opportunistic methods.
Through some of Lao Wang's descriptions of the Nebula Sword, as well as the effects and requirements that he hoped to achieve, Jhonas quickly sketched out a detailed blueprint for the equipment.
Its appearance was rather similar to the Nebula Sword, but it was more suitable for Wang Zhong's needs. Then, he would embed an ice crystal into it. This way, it would be able to withstand the ice elements for a period of time. As for the future … there was no need to think so far ahead.
Of course, Jhonas was very serious about the details. This was a special characteristic of the Babi family. It was fine if they did not do it, but if they did it, they had to do it well. This was a matter of attitude.
Lao Wang continued to give suggestions at the side. Of course, Lao Wang's suggestions were generally ignored by Jhonas, mainly because he was too amateurish and took things for granted. His basic theories did not work, and most of the time, he could only listen to them as jokes. This was also a way to adjust and relax his nervous mind. This continued for a full two days before the final refinery plan was finalized.
Lao Wang looked at the blueprint that Jhonas called a perfect piece of work in his hand. He did not know if it was perfect. However, Jhonas had put in so much effort. Just by looking at his bloodshot eyes, Lao Wang was definitely touched.
After letting Jhonas have a good sleep, Wang Zhong took the list of materials that Jhonas had written down and made a trip to the Heavenly Gates. After a round of purchases, the 100,000 Silver Star Stones that Old Cow had sent him previously, as well as the 300,000 Silver Star Stones that were sent to him after he had obtained 400 Yin and Yang Pills, had almost reached the bottom.
Lao Wang was helpless. If he had not come to the Heavenly Gates, he would not have known that he was so poor. Hundreds of thousands of Silver Star Stones were nothing in the Heavenly Gates.
The spiritual power of the Heavenly River grew and spread, but not all areas were filled with spiritual power. The power of the 5 Elements was similarly tyrannical here. In areas far away from the Heavenly River, there were many special areas where the power of the 5 Elements was the main focus.
The Frozen Domain was one of them. It was also a gift from the great divine territory to the ice creatures.
The significance of the elements in the divine territory was very different from the other worlds in the Fifth Dimension. In other worlds, the elements were ownerless and could be mobilized as they pleased. They were even the source of survival for various almighty beings. However, here, the elements were stubborn, arrogant, and harsh.
Meanwhile, the Frozen Domain magnified this rejection to the extreme. Only civilizations that had an affinity with the ice element could survive and obtain protection at the same time.
The Frozen Domain was a region where the ice creatures lived. Compared to staying in the center of the Heavenly River, these ice creatures were more willing to stay in the ice mountains and hibernate. They would only be active for one month a year. However, one should not think that they were slacking off. To many civilizations that swallowed the ice element as their cultivation method, hibernation was one of their cultivation methods. When they were asleep, their bodies would naturally absorb the power of the ice element and achieve their goal of replenishing their bodies.
The Ice Pole Faction controlled everything in the Frozen Domain. The Frozen Domain was their absolute domain. No Faction could become their enemy here. Furthermore, all the ice creatures and civilizations here relied on the Ice Pole Faction to survive. To them, the Heavenly River was a distant foreign land. The Ice Pole Faction was their everything in the divine territory.
The Cold Spring was one of the ice cores of the Icebound Zone, and it was also one of the reasons for the formation of the Icebound Zone. The ice core of the Icebound Zone continuously spewed out pure ice elements from the Cold Spring. In the beginning, the ice elements that spewed into the air were only in gaseous form. However, as they condensed in the air and were shaped by the wind, a strange and enormous Wind Ice Cavern was born, forming a natural barrier that protected the existence of the Cold Spring's ice core.
Whoosh! A huge figure traversed through the ice cave. The terrifying cold air continuously eroded the giant's body. His body was already covered with terrifying frostbite. His pale flesh was flipped open, revealing the eerie white bones within. However, the giant did not move at all. He carried a runic backpack on his back. There was a line of words on the backpack that emitted a warm feeling. However, this warmth did not protect the giant. Instead, it protected the items in the backpack.
The giant became weaker and weaker. His movements also became slower and slower. However, he finally made it through. The light was right in front of him. He dashed forward. However, the sudden acceleration caused his body, which was already suffering from frostbite, to be unable to withstand it. One of his legs suddenly fell off his body.
This leg of his would forever remain in the ice cave. However, the rest of his body had already dashed into the light. The sky reflected the light of the Heavenly River, bringing with it a hint of strange warmth.
The giant only stopped for a moment. He checked the items in his backpack. However, he did not even glance at the wound on his leg. The frozen wound was only a cold and pale white. There was no longer a trace of blood. It was no wonder that it was broken just now!
Very soon, the giant's frozen body in the ice cave became flexible again. However, there was still not a single drop of blood flowing out from the wound on his broken leg.
The giant jumped on one leg. He became uneasy and anxious. Very soon, the giant squatted down with his remaining leg. Then, he suddenly kicked upwards!
Rumble. The ground exploded …
The one-legged giant leaped up. His huge body, under the effect of a huge force, jumped 100 meters into the air. He did not have the power to fly. However, immediately after, he was like a cannonball that was shot out in an arc. He suddenly fell into the distance.
Boom …
The giant's landing was unreasonable. The power of the meteorite smashed a huge pit in the ground!
The giant's injuries worsened. He should not have been able to control his body like this. His face revealed pain. His opened eyes flickered with intense activity.
However, an even more tyrannical wave suppressed him.
Thus, the giant once again completely ignored the pain and injuries on his body. He squatted down on one leg again. All the power in his body was accumulated in this action. Boom …
He once again flew out like a cannonball. Then, he fiercely landed thousands of meters away …
Again and again …
Until he landed in front of a little girl.
The giant was already deformed. His eyes were no longer struggling. Instead, they were lifeless. He was dying.
The little girl coldly took the backpack from the giant's body. She looked into the giant's eyes. Finally, a breath came out from her mouth. It turned into a gurgling voice. "You have completed the mission. I acknowledge your final sacrifice and service. Now, I will grant you 'release'. There will be a portion of your flesh and blood on the Ice Throne."
Boom …
Almost immediately, the giant collapsed. His huge flesh and blood melted like melting snow. Then, his bones. In the blink of an eye, the giant blended into the ground and completely disappeared.
A trace of pity finally appeared in the little girl's eyes. Hopefully, the search for him was worth it.
"Pudding, Pudding, this is your last Ice Corpse Boss!"
Suddenly, a small ice bird burrowed out from the little girl's hair. Its wings were made of countless prismatic ice blocks. "Pudding, Pudding, very soon, everyone will know this news. You're finished, you're finished!"
The ice bird, Pudding, chewed on Pudding as it spoke. It was extremely gloating. "I feel ashamed to have a creator like you!"
"Shut up!"
The little girl squeezed out these two words from her throat. Then, she stretched out her hand and grabbed the talkative ice bird. She swore, "If you say another word, I'll melt you into water and pour you into the toilet!"
The ice bird was not afraid of anything. However, it was still rather afraid of such a dirty threat. If it fused with the smelly water … It could not tolerate it. It stopped.
The little girl waved her hand. A ripple of the creator's control over their creations flashed. The ice bird burrowed back into her hair uncontrollably. It was no longer a bird, but pieces of ice. They were like close-fitting scales that stuck to her skin.
After dealing with the ice bird, the little girl called Pudding opened the cloth bag. However, there was a trace of disappointment on her face …
There was a problem with her Ice Corpse Boss. Thus, she had to cut off all means of retreat and go to the Ice Spring to find a suitable cauldron. Those who had mistakenly entered a land of death and could withstand the corrosion of the boundless cold air to survive.
However, the reward this time did not seem to be that strong.
