After that, Wang Daoyuan replaced Bai Sheng to look after the Wu Clan's Equipment Forging Workshop.
In the past seven years, Bai Sheng had made enough magic weapons. There were still more than 30 magic weapons left in the shop.
For the time being, there was no need to replenish the stock. He only needed to take orders for magic weapons.
Currently, Bai Ying was the only one who came to the shop to order magic weapons. If she did not come, there would be no one else.
Wang Daoyuan simply meditated and cultivated in the shop. If anyone came, he would greet them. If no one came, he would focus on improving his cultivation level.
Bai Ying came again midway and brought some wolf bones. She asked him to help her make a few flying swords.
The flying swords were ordinary second-grade magic weapons. She did not give him the method of making them. She only mentioned some simple requirements.
Using demonic beast bones to make weapons, the two processes of forging and refining were basically skipped. He just used the smelting method to fuse some metal essence into the wolf bones to increase their strength.
In a month, Wang Daoyuan made five magic weapons and gave them to Bai Ying.
Bai Ying only gave him a total of seven sets of materials and asked him to make two flying swords. The reward was 5,000 Spirit Stones.
Wang Daoyuan made five magic weapons and sold three to Bai Ying at the market price. In total, he received more than 30,000 Spirit Stones.
Half a year later, Bai Sheng stayed in the space of the Spiritual Pearl for 20 years and finally made a flying magic weapon.
Because it was imitating the formation pattern of the crane feather boat, it took less time.
If one were to create a magic tool from scratch, it would take at least a hundred years to do so.
This magic weapon did not have the shape of a flying boat at all. It looked more like an eagle with wings in the shape of an eagle's wings.
The entire flying magic weapon was like an eagle catching prey on the ground. Its wings were half-folded and it swooped down. This was also to increase its speed.
Its length, including the tail, was eight feet long. The tail was two feet long. Excluding the wings, it was three and a half feet wide.
Because the wings were half-folded, the wingspan was only seven and a half feet wide.
The proportions of the body were not exactly based on eagle demonic beasts. Some adjustments were made.
Bai Sheng had already engraved the pattern of the crane feather boat on it. In addition, he had also engraved a pattern to increase its strength.
In order to deceive the public, he even painted the entire artifact into a dark color that was commonly seen in eagle-type demon birds.
Because it looked like an eagle, Wang Daoyuan named it "Flying Kite".
The space in the spiritual bead was still too small to be used to test the speed of the kite.
He could only estimate its flying speed. At normal speeds, it could reach a speed of slightly more than three thousand miles per hour.
At full power, its speed could reach about four thousand miles per hour.
If he could reach this estimated speed, he would be able to surpass the maximum speed of a Foundation Establishment cultivator's Sword Kinesis Flight, which would be considered to have achieved his goal.
Because it had just been researched and hadn't been deeply improved, the consumption of spiritual energy was much greater than that of the crane feather boat.
When riding a flying kite, the consumption of spiritual power was about the same as when riding a flying sword.
Because it was faster than flying on the sword, the consumption of spiritual energy was more cost-effective.
As for the load capacity, the Flying Kite could carry two people at most.
In other aspects, it was similar to the crane feather boat from before. He only needed to use spiritual power to drive the kite to fly, and he only needed to use the power of his Divine Sense to control the direction of flight.
This was much better than Sword Kinesis Flight.
The one that Bai Sheng took out was only an experimental product. The pattern on it had been improved a lot, but there were also many problems left.
If he used it directly, it would be easy for problems to arise.
To be safe, it was better to refine another one.
After using a month's time, Wang Daoyuan refined a new flying kite.
Because his Divine Sense cultivation was stronger than Bai Sheng's, his standard in the area of pattern was much higher, and there were fewer flaws.
The strength of the flying kite that he personally refined could barely reach the level of a second-tier high-grade artifact.
It was definitely much weaker than a second-tier high-grade defensive artifact, but compared to other types of artifacts, it wasn't much worse.
Even a peak Foundation Establishment cultivator wouldn't be able to easily destroy a flying kite.
Unfortunately, he didn't have any wind-attribute materials.
Otherwise, he could use the smelting method to extract the essence of the wind-attribute materials and merge them into the wings of the kite.
He could even directly use wind-attribute materials to refine the wings, which should increase the speed by quite a bit.
Moreover, the main material of this flying kite was only Golden Jade Peach Wood, which was too simple.
If he could use soft materials on the wings, he could even change the width of the wings.
Just like some of the fighter jets in his previous life, when taking off, the wings would stretch to the maximum to increase the lift and carry more people.
When escaping, the wings would be half-retracted to increase the speed.
These were all areas of improvement in the future. Now that he didn't have so many materials on hand, it was already very good to be able to reach the current level.
Wang Daoyuan was only a second-tier high-grade artifact refiner now. When his artifact refinement reached the third tier, the flying kite's speed should increase by a lot if he improved it.
After dealing with the flying boat, he left his clone, Bai Sheng, in the Wu Clan's Equipment Forging Workshop to continue earning spirit stones.
He left the Guiyan Market and went out to cause trouble.
His destination was the Mirror Treasure Lake Oasis, which was thousands of miles north of the Guiyan Market.
That old fellow, Chen Ji, was very likely hiding in the Mirror Treasure Lake Oasis. To Wang Daoyuan, that bastard was always a hidden danger.
He used Blood Shadow's intelligence system, but he didn't find anyone in Shanbei who had established a Purple Palace in the past few years.
Therefore, Chen Ji should still be a peak Foundation Establishment cultivator.
With Wang Daoyuan's current methods, he could defeat most peak Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Chen Ji didn't need to think too much about the refined corpses and Dharma artifacts that he had inherited from the Ten Thousand Corpse Spiritual Master.
A peak Foundation Establishment cultivator like him couldn't activate the Dharma artifacts left behind by a Golden Core cultivator.
Even if Chen Ji could barely activate some third-tier low-grade Dharma artifacts, he couldn't exert much power.
Against a powerful second-tier high-grade Dharma artifact, he couldn't crush it.
Even if he couldn't defeat it, didn't he still have the flying kite?
He could temporarily avoid it and rely on his speed advantage to contend with it.
No matter how strong a Foundation Establishment cultivator was, he wasn't a Purple Palace cultivator. This was a qualitative difference. A Foundation Establishment cultivator couldn't activate a third-tier Dharma artifact for a long time.
As for the refined corpses, Chen Ji didn't dare to touch them at all.
Refined corpses had a tendency to rebel against their masters. The more powerful they were, the higher the probability of them rebelling.
If a Foundation Establishment cultivator dared to command a Golden Core refined corpse, he would definitely be torn apart alive.
Even if Chen Ji had refined corpses, they were newly refined after receiving the inheritance.
The core inheritance of the Myriad Corpse Daoist was in his hands. Even if Chen Ji obtained some corpse refining techniques, he wouldn't be that strong.
Not to mention, the Netherworld Sect's Foundation Establishment cultivator had caused a lot of trouble in the Mirror Treasured Lake.
He should've clashed with Chen Ji and consumed a lot of his strength.
Furthermore, he had the Wutu Divine Lightning. Dealing with second-tier refined corpses wouldn't be a problem.
After leaving the Returning Wild Goose Market, he traveled north for more than five hundred kilometers and found a secluded place. He summoned the flying kite and tested its speed.
After flying for two hours, he had traveled three thousand five hundred kilometers.
The limit of a peak Foundation Establishment cultivator's flying speed was three thousand five hundred kilometers in two hours.
Wang Daoyuan wanted to test the limit of speed. He increased the input of spiritual power and flew north.
The flying kite's speed also increased rapidly. When it reached three thousand five hundred kilometers in two hours, the flying kite began to tremble violently.
He didn't dare to continue increasing his speed. Instead, he slowly slowed down.
He let out a long sigh. It wasn't easy to improve a flying Dharma artifact. Bai Sheng's clone had spent twenty years, but there were still hidden problems.
Soon after, he controlled the flying kite and maintained its speed at three thousand four hundred kilometers in two hours.
After flying for several thousand kilometers, there were no signs of instability.
