Chapter 3395: Saint Cores

“Forge medium quality god artifacts? That’s not difficult. I’ll just have to switch out these materials,” Ling Tong said with ease. With his ability to forge artifacts, he could even forge high quality god artifacts, let alone medium quality ones.

However, the Wind Venerable shook his head and said, “No, you can’t switch out any of these materials. I need you to forge the twin swords as medium quality god artifacts that have reached the limit, such that their might remains at the medium level, but their toughness has reached the level of high quality god artifacts.”

“When you fuse together medium quality god artifact swords, it’ll result in some damage to them no matter what. However, once the swords reach the level of high quality god artifacts, they’ll last a little longer even if it isn’t completely possible to ensure that they won’t sustain any damage at all.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Ling Tong frowned heavily when faced with the Wind Venerable’s request. “The might of medium quality god artifacts with swords at the level of high quality god artifacts? Old clan leader, t-that might be a little difficult.”

“Ling Tong, you possess extremely great mastery over forging artifacts. I’m certain you won’t disappoint me,” the Wind Venerable said to encourage him.

Ling Tong furrowed his brows heavily and said with great difficulty, “If you must refine god artifacts like that, it’s not exactly impossible. I-it’s just…”

“It’s just what?” The Wind Venerable stared at Ling Tong and gave off a natural sense of might.

“It’s just that I need two saint cores. The two swords each require a saint core. That way, while the swords forged will be at the level of high quality god artifacts, I only need to make a slight adjustment to reduce their might. However, they’ll still possess the toughness of high quality god artifacts.”

“As a result, I need to modify the saint cores such that they’re removable. When the saint cores are merged with the swords, they’ll be high quality god artifacts, but once they’re removed, they’ll be incomplete and their might will fall.”

“The twin swords with their might weakened won’t vary in their toughness, but they’ll only possess the might of medium quality god artifacts.”

“Alright then. We’ll forge them according to your plan,” said the Wind Venerable.

“The issue is that our clan no longer possesses any saint cores. All of them were stolen by the organisations of the Saints’ World many years ago.” As soon as he mentioned this, Ling Tong became wry.

“Hmm? Have they still not returned them?” The Wind Venerable’s face immediately sank as his gaze became much sharper.

“Most of the saint cores that still exist in the Saints’ World have changed owners many times already, so none of the experts who possess them right now have returned them. They all believe they’ve obtained the saint cores rightfully. They think it has nothing to do with us Spiritsages,” said LingTong.

“Nothing to do with us? How can there be nothing to do with us?” The Wind Venerable snorted coldly and vanished once again, leaving the Spiritsages.

This time, not only did he bring Jian Chen with him, but even Ling Tong resided in the Wind Venerable’s fetal membrane of the world too.

The Thousand Mechanisms clan was one of the seven archaean clans of the Saints’ World. Like the Lightning God clan, the Thousand Mechanisms clan did not reside on the forty-nine great planes or the eighty-one great planets. Instead, it stood in a foreign region of space, protected by a powerful formation.

On this day, the entire Thousand Mechanisms clan began to shake violently. The formation that protected them for countless generations shone with dazzling light. The formation was activated as its might was pushed to the extreme.

The sudden incident immediately alerted all the experts in the Thousand Mechanisms clan. At that moment, the presences of many Primordial realm experts erupted, giving off a startling battle intent. They thought a powerful enemy had attacked them.

“Calm down, everyone. Immediately turn off the formation and open up the clan to welcome the Wind Sovereign with the greatest honours!”

In the depths of the Thousand Mechanisms clan, a figure basking in shining light rushed into the air. His presence was so powerful that it shook the heavens and ripped the skies.

“It’s the Saint Monarch!”

“Saint Monarch!”

With the figure’s appearance, a series of cries rang out from the Thousand Mechanism clan. All of their voices were filled with respect from the bottom of their hearts.

The figure basking within the light was the spiritual symbol of the Thousand Mechanisms clan, the Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch!

In the next moment, the Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch dismissed the light around him and exposed himself before everyone.

He was a ruddy old man with a deep gaze. His eyes seemed to contain the cosmos, where galaxies orbited.

He was about to receive the Wind Sovereign, so the Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch did not dare to show any hints of arrogance, receiving him without any disguises.

By now, the entrance to the Thousand Mechanism clan was already wide open. Under the lead of the Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch, all the Grand Prime ancestors of the Thousand Mechanism clan erased their presences and stood politely.

The Wind Venerable stood right before them without any expression.

“This junior Heaven Perceiving welcomes the Wind Sovereign to the Thousand Mechanism clan with all of its important members!”

Each of the seven Saint Monarchs was a lofty existence. They stood above all else and were extremely powerful, not only possessing the legacies of Grand Exalts, but also wielding sovereign god artifacts!

In the entire Saints’ World, only Grand Exalts that were embodiments of the heavenly ways stood above them.

Only Grand Exalts could make them lower their proud heads and receive their bows.

“My Spiritsages has a saint core with your Thousand Mechanism clan. I’ve come with only one goal, which is to take back what belongs to our Spiritsages.” The Wind Venerable stared at the Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch emotionlessly.

“Wind Sovereign, we obtained that saint core through exchange. We paid a hefty price for it.” The Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch was troubled.

“Are you going to return it or not?” said the Wind Venerable coldly. He did not care about that.

The Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch immediately lost his composure. The Wind Sovereign’s tone was clearly filled with threat.

However, when faced with a sovereign’s threat, his Thousand Mechanisms clan really could not afford to stand their ground. As a result, the Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch was forced to say helplessly, “Since it belongs to the Spiritsages, we’ll return it!”

“Saint Monarch, this-” An Eighth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime panicked behind the Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch, clearly disagreeing with this decision.

“Be quiet!” The Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch called out and immediately interrupted him. Afterwards, with a wave of his hand, a set of god artifact armour immediately flew over from the depths of the Thousand Mechanism clan. It gave off a startling pulse of energy.

The armour was clearly a high quality god artifact of extremely high grade, reaching the peak of high quality god artifacts.

“This Saint Heart Armour is one of the five supreme treasures beneath the ancestral artifact of our Thousand Mechanisms clan. Today, I will gift this Saint Heart Armour to the Wind Sovereign on behalf of the Thousand Mechanisms clan!” said the Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch with his fist cupped. Despite his reluctance, he had no other choice.

“I’m only taking back the saint core that belongs to our Spiritsages. I have no interest in your so-called Saint Heart Armour,” the Wind Venerable said indifferently. Afterwards, with a wave of his hand, the force of the world enveloped the Saint Heart Armour.

Cracks began to run across the Saint Heart Armour, and its light dimmed. Shortly afterwards, a thumb-sized gemstone flew out and landed in the Wind Venerable’s hand.

The gemstone was the Spiritsages’ saint core!
