In the Spirit Land, Lu Ye got up and went to the Heaven's Fate Pillar again. He connected his consciousness to the Heaven's Fate Treasury, but this time, he wasn't there to buy anything.
Instead, he wanted to upgrade his Mountain Coiling Saber.
The Mountain Coiling Saber was a Mid-Rank Spirit Artifact with eighteen seals. It had just been upgraded a few months ago, from Low-Rank to Mid-Rank.
However, Lu Ye's cultivation had been improving rapidly recently. Since he entered the Cloud River Battlefield, he had reached the Fourth-Order Cloud River Realm in less than five months.
Now, he was qualified enough to wield a higher quality spiritual weapon.
Under normal circumstances, Spirit Stream Realm cultivators would only use Low Grade Spirit Artifacts. Once they reached the Cloud River Realm, they would be able to switch to Mid Grade Spirit Artifacts. Once they reached the Cloud River Realm, they would be able to switch to High Grade Spirit Artifacts. As for Top Grade Spirit Artifacts, they were generally used by True Lake Realm cultivators.
Although Lu Ye's cultivation was one level lower than the Fifth-Order Cloud River Realm, it wasn't a big problem.
Since he didn't have anything to do recently and didn't need to fight with anyone, he could use this free time to upgrade the grade of the Mountain Plate Saber. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the time to do it in the future.
In the Heaven's Fate Treasury, Lu Ye whispered, "Commission, upgrade Spirit Artifact!"
He had done this before, so he knew the procedure.
As his voice fell, his vision changed and he appeared in a small room. The room was empty, except for a platform in front of him.
Lu Ye began to wait here.
On his side, he still needed a free Tool Refiner to accept the commission. Then, they would negotiate the price and agree on some conditions and time limits. If there was no Tool Refiner to accept the commission, then he could only continue to wait.
For the cultivators of the Nine Continents, this method was undoubtedly convenient. They didn't need to spend time and effort to find an Artifact Refiner. They only needed to use the Heaven's Fate Treasury to complete the task.
Not only could they do this for Spirit Artifacts, but they could also commission custom Spirit Artifacts and refine Spirit Pills.
Therefore, as long as one had a special skill, it wasn't difficult to earn merit points. Those who specialized in Artifact Refining and Alchemy didn't even need to fight with others. They only needed to accept commissions in the Heaven's Fate Treasury to earn enough merit points to satisfy their cultivation needs.
There were quite a number of blacksmiths in the Tianji Treasure Vault. Lu Ye only waited for a moment before the space in front of him twisted and a figure appeared.
Raising his eyes to size her up, he saw that the person wasn't very old, around thirty years old. Her skin was fair and tender, and she had a charming appearance. She was wearing a close-fitting floral dress that outlined her graceful curves.
Lu Ye was surprised.
In the Tianji Treasury, Tianji had a natural concealment and protection for both parties involved in the transaction. It was a means of shrouding oneself in a fog, making it impossible for both parties to distinguish the identity and appearance of the other party. Even their gender could not be discerned.
After all, the two parties involved in such a transaction were likely to be from two different camps. Concealing the identities and appearances of both parties could also reduce a lot of unnecessary trouble.
However, ever since Lu Ye obtained the Blessing of Heaven's Secret, this kind of concealment had lost its effect on him. He seemed to have gained some privileges that did not have any effect on him. In his vision, the cultivators he traded with were not shrouded in fog at all.
What made Lu Ye surprised was that the Armament Master who came this time was actually that woman from last time!
Wasn't this too much of a coincidence?
The upgrade of the Mountain Pan Saber from low grade to mid grade was made by this woman. The result was very satisfactory to Lu Ye. Since it was her again this time, there was no problem.
Lu Ye calmly placed the Mountain Pan Saber in his hand on the table in front of him.
The woman raised her hand and grabbed it. Frowning, she said in a dissatisfied voice with an old voice, "A mere mid grade spirit weapon …"
Last time, she said "a mere low grade …"
Obviously, the spirit weapon's quality was too low, so she didn't make much profit.
However, unlike last time, before the woman finished speaking, she seemed to have discovered something. Turning the Mountain Pan Saber over, she looked at it and her expression changed slightly.
The Mountain Pan Saber's hilt originally only had the two words' Pan Mountain ', but since the woman upgraded it last time, there was an additional symbol of a feather.
It didn't affect its use. Lu Ye knew that some Armament Masters liked to leave some special symbols on their work to prove that it was their masterpiece. That feather was undoubtedly the special symbol left by the woman.
At this moment, she saw her own symbol.
She raised her head in surprise and glanced at Lu Ye, as if she hadn't expected things to be so coincidental. The spirit weapon that she had upgraded before appeared in front of her again.
Thinking back, she recalled what had happened a few months ago.
After all, there weren't many people who were willing to pay such a huge price to upgrade a low grade spirit weapon. Most cultivators would just buy it directly and wouldn't waste much merit points.
In just a few months, it was upgraded again. How could this little guy's cultivation speed be so fast? The woman muttered to herself.
Although she couldn't see Lu Ye's face, she could deduce a few things from the Mountain Pan Saber in his hand.
"Upgrade it to high grade?" The woman asked in her old voice. Just from her voice, one would think she was an old man, but in reality, she was a charming woman.
"Yes."
"What do you want?"
"The shape and length remain the same, twenty-seven restrictions, and double the weight."
"Alright, name your price."
Lu Ye pondered. Last time, upgrading the Mountain Pan Saber from low grade to mid grade had cost him two thousand merit points. This time, the cost would be even greater.
After pondering for a moment, he said, "Five thousand merit points."
The woman raised an eyebrow, and a smile appeared on her face. She was clearly very satisfied with this price, mainly because she hadn't expected a little guy at the Cloud River Tier to be so generous.
However, she said, "At least eight thousand merit points. Upgrading from mid grade to high grade requires a lot of materials, and I'll have to buy them."
Lu Ye looked at her. If it weren't for the fact that he had the privilege of being able to see the woman's expression clearly, he would definitely feel that her words were reasonable. However, since he had already seen through the woman's expression, how could Lu Ye not know that his price of five thousand merit points was a little too high?
This woman was probably thinking that he was a sucker.
Thinking about it carefully, because it was easy for him to obtain merit points, he didn't feel bad about squandering them. However, if it were any other cultivator at the Cloud River Tier, they would have to think twice about spending several thousand merit points.
"Then forget it, I don't have that many merit points."
Saying this, Lu Ye moved to retrieve the Mountain Pan Saber.
"It's not that we can't negotiate," the woman hurriedly said.
"Four thousand merit points?"
"What did you say?" The woman's eyebrows twitched.
"I think I only have four thousand merit points left."
"Brat, are you toying with me?" The woman's expression darkened. "Five thousand merit points, and you'll retrieve the saber in three days. If possible, sign the Heaven's Secret Contract!"
"Okay … okay!" Lu Ye agreed somewhat reluctantly.
He secretly decided that the next time he wanted to upgrade the Mountain Pan Saber, he would let others name the price, and then he would observe the situation and slowly haggle.
The woman immediately took out the Heaven's Secret Contract and listed down some terms. Lu Ye checked, and after confirming that there were no mistakes, both parties signed the contract.
"Three days later!" the woman said, and her figure quickly disappeared.
Lu Ye stayed in the Heaven's Secret Treasure Trove for a while, and inadvertently discovered that a few more Earth Core Flames had appeared. He immediately spent some merit points to buy them.
From the looks of it, it was just as he had thought. The items in the Tianji Treasury all came from a certain source. He had already bought all of the Earth Core Flames, and now there were a few more. There was no doubt that someone had collected the Earth Core Flames from somewhere and sold them to the Tianji Treasury.
It seemed that he would have to take a look from time to time in the future. Who knew, he might be able to find something.
Now that he had the Heaven's Secret Pillar in the spiritual land, it wouldn't take much effort to do this.
Withdrawing his consciousness from the Heaven's Secret Treasure Trove, Lu Ye turned around and raised his eyebrows.
Behind him, a large group of Demon Wolves stood there quietly. Their eyes were fixed on him. The tallest Demon Wolf was just three feet in front of him.
Although Lu Ye had become familiar with a few of the Demon Wolves during this time, most of them ignored him. It wasn't just him; other than Giant Carapace, these Demon Wolves didn't show any signs of closeness to anyone else.
This was especially true for the Head Wolf. This fellow was the most arrogant, and usually didn't even bother to look at Lu Ye and the others.
At this moment, however, it was waiting here with a whole group of Demon Wolves.
Beside the Head Wolf was the Demon Wolf with the Sharp Tattoos. To be able to stand side by side with the Head Wolf like this was undoubtedly an honor. In the past, it didn't have such qualifications.
Moreover, it seemed to be quite proud of itself, and there were some fresh bloodstains at the corner of its mouth.
This was clearly the attitude of someone who had won a fight with a companion!
Lu Ye immediately understood what was going on.
"You guys also want that special ability?"
The Head Wolf lowered its head slightly, the meaning it wanted to express was obvious.
Just a simple Sharp Tattoos could increase a Demon Wolf's biting power by at least thirty to forty percent. This kind of increase naturally made all the Demon Wolves excited.
This was also the reason why the Head Wolf led the pack here to wait for Lu Ye.
Lu Ye was a little surprised by this situation. He originally planned to find a few other Demon Wolves that he was familiar with and continue to practice on them.
Now, it saved him a lot of trouble. The Head Wolf took the initiative to find him, and the effect was naturally different from finding him himself.
There were hundreds of Demon Wolves in the pack. If he could tattoo every Demon Wolf, Lu Ye would accumulate more experience and knowledge. This was something he was happy to see.
After pondering for a moment, he took out a Demon Core from his storage space and held it in front of the Head Wolf. "Exchange with this!"
The Demon Wolf Pack would go out to hunt every few days. Not only would there be fresh meat, but there would also be some Demon Cores. However, these Demon Cores would be digested by the Demon Wolves themselves.
Hu Po wasn't the only one who liked Demon Cores. All Demon Beasts liked to devour the Demon Cores of other Demon Beasts. This would allow them to grow faster, especially if the Demon Cores were compatible with each other's attributes.
Lu Ye could tattoo these Demon Wolves with Spirit Tattoos for free, but it would be better if he could take advantage of this opportunity to earn some benefits. After all, he had spent Merit Points to buy these materials from the Tianji Treasury. He also had to spend a lot of time and effort to tattoo them.
