Chui Yim didnt spend too much ti mourning Chor Huet Zhins passing.
He was actually an emotional person, and Chor Huet Zhin was soone he admired a lot, but they never really interacted enough for him to feel too upset. If it was Chor Shing Chit, whom he viewed as his best friend, hed be much more upset.
Now, Chui Yim had drowned himself in work once more. His character made him a researcher who wanted to research and understand every subject he learnt, which was why he was extrely busy as he had picked up many fields. Alchemy, forging, dicine and gliphism were all ti-consuming and content-heavy subjects.
Luckily, Chui Yim had reached his bottleneck for dicine, and he didnt plan to beco an elite alchemist. Just like Ping Chi ntioned, alchemy was just used to help supplent his dicinal skills. As for forging, he was already a great talsmith, held back only by his weak body and heart.
Thus, he was now focusing on putting together the Scam Palaces school fees that cost as much as a kings ransom. Moreover, he wasnt planning to stay in the Chor Clan Mansion in the long run. Chor Shing Chit might be his close friend, but he wasnt thick-skinned enough to leech their als forever, which was why he spent 200,000 on a residence near the lake.
That was also why he was currently standing here with his worn-out bag. The ssy house made him miss Chui Tin a lot suddenly. Pat! He patted his bald head to clear his thoughts and started tidying the place.
The residence next to the lake wasnt too large nor small, but it still took him half a day to tidy up his bedroom and another day to clean things up for it to be inhabitable.
He went to an eatery near him and returned to the residence after a filling al.
Night fell. The reflection of moonlight on the lake next to the courtyard was depressing to look at, yet also slightly beautiful simultaneously. This made Chui Yim feel like all his silver taels were worth it.
After being emotional, the next thing is to work!
Chui Yim sat in his bedroom to sort out his pitiful worn-out bag. It looked small, yet it had a shocking amount of space that contained all the minerals he got from Chui Yim, the precious resources from the Engraved Mountain Range, the Poorest Elixir, the Nine Dragons Fire Cauldron, and much more.
He kept all the items in the adjacent courtyard as that would be where he would refine elixirs, forge and study in the future. Afterwards, he returned to his bedroom and stared at three unknown items in front of him.
An ordinary-looking black cushion, a shiny golden bone and a jade green forearm bone.
The black cushion was a gift from Ping Chi when the Yellow Spring's Lady ca for him. He would not have rembered the cushion if he hadnt tidied his bag.
He acquired the golden bone from the Engraved Mountain Range. It was from the drumstick that he consud and only today did Chui Yim realise that it wasnt an ordinary drumstick; it was what caused the abnormal movent of his Heavens Fla, his wind chamber overfilling and his increase in physical strength.
As for the green bone, which looked like jade, it was the Yellow Spring's Ladys treasure.
Chui Yim decided to study both bones first.
He was a veteran in forging, so the process of researching new ingredients was a familiar one for him. However, things were different today as the bones in front of him were so tough to the point that he couldnt cut off part of them to research.
Chui Yim then used fire to try and lt them. To his surprise, the drumstick beca stronger after being burnt. He even felt a wave of energy.
Chui Yim was speechless. The bone beca harder to deal with after I burned it! It should be a superior fire-attributed ingredient then? An idea popped into Chui Yims head as he decided to change his target. Ill deal with you after setting up my equipnt.
Chui Yim thought angrily as he put the drumstick away.
But he never expected that the jade-like forearm bone would be worse. It didnt even change colour slightly under fire! Besides describing it as invulnerable, Chui Yim couldnt think of any other words. But then, he suddenly rembered how the Yellow Spring's Lady used the bone.
He had always felt that gliphists treasures were rough, unlike gliph weapons which were made exquisitely.
When creating their treasures, gliphists rarely refined their ingredients and kept their original shape, such as Chan Shue Guns old robe, and Chi Pings short walking stick. Even the Thirty-Six Night Lunar Needles were made crudely by mixing rare ingredients and refining them with the essence of the full moon.
The Thirty-Six Night Lunar Needles were the best item that Chui Yim had. But as a great talsmith of the Sallow Continent, the ingredients chosen to make the set of Thirty-Six Night Lunar Needles were nonsense. If not for the Gentle Moon Priests powerful energliph and the ti he had used to refine them, it wouldve undoubtedly resulted in a set of rubbish.
Thus, what the Yellow Spring's Lady did, refining the bone with tons of poison and souls to give it a hellish nature was another thod. Chui Yim couldnt help but feel that refining gliphist treasures was no different from another forging thod.
After letting his train of thoughts run for a while, he stowed the bone away too. He could not study it with his current ability and lack of equipnt.
Lastly, he turned to the ordinary-looking black cushion.
What on earth is this? Chui Yim took the black cushion and fiddled with it. No matter how he played with it, it seed like an ordinary cushion. After so thought, he decided to place it on the ground and sit on it.
Well, thats what we use cushions for anyways
But as soon as he did so, his eyes shot wide open in surprise.
