Chapter 922 - 1022: Give Me One, Just One
"Elder Yuan Chu, Elder Yuan Chu?" Ye Tianfan asked cautiously because he saw Elder Yuan Chu suddenly shine with excitement after being momentarily stunned, as if he was about to eat him alive.Perhaps this Glaze is more valuable than I imagined?
That seemed to be the only explanation. Otherwise, why would Elder Yuan Chu act as if he had never seen anything like it before?
"What? Go out? Where would I go? I don't want to go out!" Upon hearing Ye Tianfan's words, Elder Yuan Chu snapped out of it, completely forgetting about going to the Taichu Sect.
Going to the Taichu Sect to find his Senior Brother Taichu now seemed insignificant compared to the importance of this piece of Glaze in front of him. This could be the key to crafting a Supreme Magical Treasure, allowing him to become the only person in the world capable of making such a treasure, elevating him to a top position in the Artifact Refining Realm.
With a chance to earn such honors, Elder Yuan Chu couldn't afford to let this opportunity pass. Moreover, the item was in Ye Tianfan's hands, and Tianfan didn't practice Qi Cultivation, nor did he know anything about Artifact Refining.
Even if Ye Tianfan were to hand it over, it would eventually end up with him anyway. Of course, Elder Yuan Chu wasn't implying that he intended to misappropriate this item; rather, he would refine it into a Supreme Magical Treasure. After his part in crafting it, who it was given to was none of his concern!
"Nephew Tianfan, do you know what you're holding?" Elder Yuan Chu asked with a face full of zeal.
Ye Tianfan was startled by Elder Yuan Chu's excited expression. He didn't understand why Elder Yuan Chu was acting this way, but he cautiously replied, "This... I'm not really sure, that's why I came to consult Bai Feng, to see if he recognized it. I only know it's likely a crafting material, but nothing beyond that."
"This item is called Timeless Glaze, an extremely rare material. The conditions for the formation of Timeless Glaze are also very harsh. It is created when a Legendary Divine Iron falls to the mortal world, producing tremendous friction upon impact. At the moment of landing, a huge impact force is generated and merges, carrying with it the celestial energy from the Legendary Divine Iron. Additionally, if there happens to be Jade nearby, the heat and friction immediately commence the smelting process on the Jade. The success rate of forming a single piece of Timeless Glaze from an entire Jade deposit is very low, underscoring its rarity!
Furthermore, although Timeless Glaze does not guarantee that the crafted treasure will be of supreme level, it ensures that if it does become a supreme-level treasure, it will be at least intermediate to high-grade, much stronger than Legendary Divine Iron." Elder Yuan Chu paused, then grabbed Ye Tianfan's arm tightly.
"Timeless Glaze should be a coexisting material with Legendary Divine Iron. A place with Timeless Glaze must have Legendary Divine Iron, but not necessarily vice versa. Is the Legendary Divine Iron also with you?"
Looking at Elder Yuan Chu's exhilarated demeanor, Ye Tianfan replied, "I'm sorry, Elder Yuan Chu, I don't have the Legendary Divine Iron. It was taken by the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji. I found these pieces of Timeless Glaze after carefully searching in the place where he extracted the Legendary Divine Iron."
Then Ye Tianfan recounted his encounter with the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji. After hearing this, Elder Yuan Chu sighed deeply, "Alas, perhaps it is not my fate. If I had the Legendary Divine Iron, I would have a guarantee of crafting a Supreme Magical Treasure. But with only the Timeless Glaze, my certainty drops to eighty or ninety percent. I'm truly afraid of a crafting failure destroying this divine substance."
As Elder Yuan Chu spoke, he suddenly paused and asked, "Did you just say you found several pieces? Not just one, right?"
Elder Yuan Chu suddenly realized that Ye Tianfan hadn't said he only had one piece but rather several. If there were multiple pieces of Timeless Glaze, then crafting a Supreme Magical Treasure was certain to succeed, especially given an eighty to ninety percent success rate. Surely, he couldn't be unlucky enough to fail multiple times.
"Uh... I found seven pieces in total, though they vary in size. The one I'm holding now is one of the smaller ones!" Ye Tianfan replied.
Upon hearing Ye Tianfan's words, Elder Yuan Chu felt as if he had taken a refreshing cold shower on a scorching day, invigorated all over!
"Nephew Tianfan, give me one piece, work with me, and I'll return to you with a Supreme Magical Treasure. How does that sound?" Elder Yuan Chu proposed, hardly believing he would fail on the first try given such a high success rate.
Ye Tianfan looked a bit perplexed at Elder Yuan Chu's eagerness. It was rare for Elder Yuan Chu to show such an expression, purely due to a single piece of Timeless Glaze!
Ye Tianfan, with a wry smile, handed the piece of Timeless Glaze to Elder Yuan Chu and said, "Elder Yuan Chu, this was meant for you already. After all, I don't practice Artifact Refining, so this is far more useful to you than it is to me. Besides, our Taichu Sect is in a phase of rebuilding. Now, having a Supreme Magical Treasure emerging would be fantastic for our sect."
Upon hearing Ye Tianfan's heartfelt words, Elder Yuan Chu grinned and said, "No wonder Senior Brother Taichu chose you as the next Sect Leader; you have such a generous heart!"
"Huh?" Ye Tianfan was stunned by Elder Yuan Chu's statement. What was going on? The next Sect Leader, and chosen by him? Why was he unaware of this, and isn't this something he should know? Moreover, his master had never mentioned it, and it seemed his master was grooming him to be the next head of the Taihuo Peak. Could there be some misunderstanding here?
After saying this, Elder Yuan Chu realized he might have caused trouble. Senior Brother Taichu had never officially announced that Ye Tianfan was to be groomed as the next Sect Leader; he had only mentioned it in their personal chats. Now, by telling Ye Tianfan, Junior Brother Tian Chu would certainly find out too.
Oh no, Junior Brother Tian Chu was nurturing Ye Tianfan as the head of Taihuo Peak, but now Senior Brother Taichu was grooming Ye Tianfan for Sect Leader. If Junior Brother Tian Chu found out, it would definitely create turmoil.
"Uh... just pretend I didn't say anything. I didn't say anything." Having said this, Elder Yuan Chu made a hurried escape with the Timeless Glaze!
