Li Ang looked at Falo: "Why hasn't it transformed into Excellence Realm Equipment?"

The description of the Wind Breath Sword's panel had changed, and its strength greatly increased. But so far, it had absorbed an 8-tier Pure Star Crystal yet had not become an 8-tier Treasure Artifact.

[Tier: 6]

[Category: Short Sword]

[Energy Source: Pure Star Crystal·Wind]

[Attack Enhancement: Attacks with additional Wind Blade effect]

[Casting Enhancement: Adds Wind Blade to Wind Magic]

[Equipment Skills: Wind Protection, Storm Blade, Wind Armor]

Falo said: "That's because this sword has been asleep for too long."

Douding looked at the sword in Zoe's hand, and the young girl was excitedly waving it around. She deliberately suppressed the wind stream on the sword, but the disturbed airflow still blew Dorothy's and Andasu's tails back and forth. Alulu remained immovable as a mountain.

"Its previous user had such exquisite control over the elements that they nearly destroyed it while unleashing its overlimit power. I really don't know what it was used against."

Farlonio, hands on hips, said: "If we compare Treasure Artifacts to people, then after a severe injury, even if they receive great nourishment, they still need time to adapt."

Li Ang nodded. Her words were akin to "recovery progresses in fine stages," meaning that even though the Wind Breath Sword had recovered, it still needed time to return to its peak state.

Just by watching Zoe wield the sword, he could sense the abundant spirituality within it, but this spirituality still needed to slowly infuse into the sword to become perfectly integrated.

"This is enough!" Zoe said happily, bouncing on her feet.

"If I had an Excellence Realm Weapon, I couldn't handle it yet. This is better!"

The young girl hugged the sword like a treasure, being with it day and night until it was almost like a part of her body, with the blade carefully avoiding any place it might cause harm.

"We'll just grow together, I have to work hard too, I can't be slower than it."

Seeing her joy, Li Ang didn't dwell on the matter.

He glanced at Aifei, his eyes carrying a slight inquiry.

Blondie Douding said: "I didn't expect that crafty merchant to have this skill."

"Since we parted ways, I have been working much harder than before."

Falo said with some pride, raising her head.

Elaphia asked: "If there truly is a possibility to make Treasure Artifact materials, to what extent can you achieve it?"

The smile disappeared from Falo's face as she looked closely at Blondie Douding's charming face and then at Li Ang.

"You two, you aren't just trying to have some fun at my expense, are you?" Farlonio asked tentatively.

Because he didn't expect to obtain anything at the Council Tower, Li Ang didn't bring a package, so the Decaying Weapons were temporarily stored in Elaphia's Treasure Vault.

Elaphia gestured, taking out the transformed Staff of Dependence from the vault, which had been infused with the Creation Formula.

With the rust gone, the decayed staff became a spotless, elegant, and long silver staff.

The multiple ring adornments on the staff's head seemed to be processed into blunt protrusions for a Martial Staff, or they could be carved with Magic Arrays and inlaid with Gemstones, turning it into a powerfully charged Magic Staff. It was as if it could become a legendary Staff of Martial Arts after processing.

This was agreed upon before departure; if the weapons were to be shown to Falo, they couldn't reveal their decaying form directly. This was also the Speaker's instruction.

Otherwise, this crafty merchant would likely go mad upon knowing that the Decaying Weapon could become a high-tier entity under the control of a Rune Stone.

If the Treasury wanted to do something, it could still stir up a wave in the skies of Nebis.

Though Li Ang cherished the Creation Formula in the Rune Stones, now that he knew of a way to replenish them, using a bit wouldn't matter given his current stock.

As soon as the perfect embryo appeared, Falo's attention never shifted from it.

"This, this, this..."

She ran around the floating silver staff, then rushed to Li Ang and grabbed his clothes hem, her voice trembling:

"Did you, did you find the Creation Cauldron?!"

"Let go." Aifei frowned.

Li Ang and Elaphia exchanged a glance.

They both knew this term.

Previously, when Falo invited Li Ang to join the Dome Furnace Association, she mentioned they were preparing to search for this place. Li Ang's system also stated that the pre-task line for Treasure Creation had to reach there.

However, he didn't expect the Decaying Weapons found in the Divine Remnant to be related to this place.

"How we obtained these is a trade secret." Faced with Falo, Li Ang imitated her tone.

Falo pouted, while Aifei, who rarely smiled since entering the shop, finally did: "What's wrong, I thought you best understood this reasoning?"

"You two villains, now I understand. You guys are really incriminating yourselves." Crafty Merchant Douding sighed: "Can I take a look?"

She couldn't resist the temptation of the perfect embryo and accepted the staff body to observe closely.

Li Ang asked: "Why do you think that we got it from the Creation Cauldron?"

"Legends say it's a furnace built at a never-cooling volcanic crater by the most glorious ancient civilization after the world's birth, and all civilization's Treasure Creation methods originate from there."

Falo gently caressed the silver-white staff body.

"In this age, even if someone visits every ancient site, they can't replicate the Treasure Creation methods. Over the thousand years from the Ancestors' era to now, something happened that caused this knowledge to be lost, and we have no way of knowing what."

The brown-haired Douding raised the silver staff, admiring it under the light.

Li Ang noticed that her Little Dragon was watching intently.

Its emerald eyes had been fixated on them ever since Falo was restoring the Wind Breath Sword's power, and now it was staring even more intently at the Staff of Dependence.
