Lin Bai agrees to the Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures' three conditions for forging a divine sword, including ensuring its future glory and aiding the Pangu Sect. However, Lin Bai expresses concern over the extended forging time. Later, Lin Bai learns from Hu Qi and others that the forging process has a dire omen of

"Master asked us to go up, let’s go!" Luo Jia looked at several Junior Brothers and Sisters beside him and immediately took the lead to step onto Fire Lotus Mountain.

This was also the first time the five of them had ascended Fire Lotus Mountain again after being expelled by Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures.

Lin Bai said to Hu Qi, "Hu Qi, I didn’t know it would be like this; otherwise, I absolutely wouldn’t have come to ask Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures to refine artifacts!"

Hu Qi said to Lin Bai with a bitter smile, "I know, Lin Bai. If you knew I was the disciple of Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures, and knew this would bring such severe consequences, you wouldn’t have come!"

Lin Bai said apologetically, "Sorry!"

Hu Qi nodded with a smile and said, "I will first go up to see Master!"

Lin Bai nodded slightly.

Immediately, the five people ascended Fire Lotus Mountain.

Arriving at the palace of Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures, at this moment, Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures was inside, burning incense and worshiping the Ancestral Master.

When Luo Jia and the other four disciples entered, they all clasped their fists and shouted, "Rebellious disciples Luo Jia, Chen Zhixiao, Qin Xin, Nong Shuang, Hu Qi pay respects to Master!"

Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures, with his back facing the five, spoke softly, "Pangu Sect originates from the Spirit Realm and was once considered one of the few artifact refining sects counted on one’s fingers within the Spirit Realm, possessing an extraordinary and high status in the Spirit Realm!"

"It is no exaggeration to say, among all the powers and strong ones in the Spirit Realm, more or less have Divine Soldier Weapons refined by the Pangu Sect!"

"Long ago, there was a great battle between the Sky-swallowing Clan and the Giant God Clan, affecting the Ten Thousand Realms!"

"A strong one from the Sky-swallowing Clan found a piece of Divine Iron from the Chaos World and requested the seniors of the Pangu Sect to refine a Divine Weapon for them!"

"That Divine Iron was something that didn’t exist in the Spirit Realm; the seniors of the Pangu Sect were quite interested and accepted the request of the Sky-swallowing Clan, thus refining a Divine Weapon for them!"

"After the weapon was born, the people of the Sky-swallowing Clan once wielded this weapon and consecutively slaughtered strong ones of the Giant God Clan, causing immense anger in the Giant God Clan, and upon investigation, found that the Pangu Sect had refined this Divine Weapon!"

"From then on, the Giant God Clan began pursuing the Pangu Sect!"

"The seniors of the Pangu Sect, being left with no choice, issued an order for disciples to flee to Minor Worlds beneath the Spirit Realm to escape the hunt from the Giant God Clan in order to preserve the Taoist Inheritance of the Pangu Sect!"

"Thus, the lineage of Pangu Sect on the Barbaric Ancient Continent was established!"

At this point, Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures turned around to look at the five kneeling disciples behind him.

Luo Jia and the others listened carefully to the words of Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures, this segment of history was something unknown to them.

Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures looked at the five and seriously said, "I am telling you this because if ever I am no longer in this world, you must know where your sect comes from and where it is headed!"

Luo Jia sadly shouted, "Master, can’t you refrain from refining it!"

Chen Zhixiao also said angrily, "Master, we can simply not refine this weapon!"

Lady Qin Xin said quietly, "Master, we can choose not to refine this weapon, we can give Lin Bai some other form of compensation, even if... even if it means I marry him willingly!"

Nong Shuang looked at Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures and said, "Master, I feel the same as Senior Sister Qin Xin, as long as you do not refine it, both Senior Sister Qin Xin and I can marry Lin Bai as a form of compensation, please reconsider!"

Hu Qi heard the words of the several Senior Brothers and Sisters, smiled bitterly without speaking; earlier, Lin Bai had already decided not to refine after learning Hu Qi was the disciple of Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures, but this is not just Lin Bai not wanting to refine it; Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures wishes to refine it!

Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures laughed, "Haha, I know all five of you are very filial!"

"Luo Jia, you were the first to beg to become my disciple, yet your talent in artifact refining is not high, but you are very diligent!"

"Chen Zhixiao, you are cunning, learned many skills from me in appraising treasures, even if you leave Fire Lotus Mountain, you could make a name for yourself in Tianbao Tower!"

"Qin Xin, you excel in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, are kind-hearted, you can find a suitable husband to marry, or you can mingle within the noble mansions of the Central Holy Nation, where you will have a place!"

"Nong Shuang, what I’ve passed down to you are Martial Techniques and Cultivation Skills I’ve collected, among the five of you, you possess the deepest Martial Arts Talent and strength!"

"Hu Qi, you have the highest talent for artifact refining among the five of you. I am also considering passing on the position of sect master of Pangu Sect to you!"

Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures chuckled as he spoke.

"May I ask you all a few questions?"

Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures asked.

Luo Jia said, "As long as Master does not refine, ask anything you wish, Master!"

Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures smiled and said, "Simple food and gourmet delicacies, which do you prefer?"

Luo Jia hesitated for a moment, then said, "Naturally gourmet delicacies!"

Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures laughed again, "To be obscure or become renowned Under Heaven, which do you prefer?"

Chen Zhixiao said, "Born in the Martial World, naturally aim to make a name for oneself!"

Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures laughed and asked, "The noise of the world or mountain and flowing water, which do you prefer?"

Qin Xin said, "The mountain and flowing water, only then can one meet a confidant!"

Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures asked, "Fancy fists and flowery legs or Divine Skill Martial Techniques, which do you prefer?"

Nong Shuang said seriously, full-faced, "Divine Skill Martial Techniques!"

Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures asked, "To let you refine mundane iron tools all your life or use your life to refine an eternal Divine Weapon, Hu Qi, which would you choose?"

"I!" Hu Qi heard this question and immediately wanted to blurt it out, but just as the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them down again.

After a long silence, Hu Qi said dejectedly, "I... I would choose to refine an eternal Divine Weapon!"

Upon hearing Hu Qi’s answer, Luo Jia and the others seemed to understand the meaning within the words of Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures.

Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures looked at the five disciples with a smile and said, "We warriors seize the creation of heaven and earth, born against the fate, against the tide, can raise a hand to pluck the stars, can stamp a foot to shake the sea, can extend life, can live a thousand years!"

"I am already five hundred and twenty years old; I’ve lived muddle-headedly on the Barbaric Ancient Continent for five hundred and twenty years!"

"I cannot lead Pangu Sect, lead you, back to the Spirit Realm!"

"But today I finally get to choose to do something myself!"

"And yet you want to stop me?"

"You choose gourmet delicacies and not simple food!"

"You choose to make a name and not be obscure!"

"You choose mountain flowing water and not worldly noise!"

"You choose Divine Skill Martial Techniques and not fancy fists and flowery legs!"

"Since you all want to choose, have all chosen your choices, then why can’t you let me choose once?"

"Why now, when I’ve made my choice, do you want to stop me in every way?"

Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures smiled and asked the five disciples.

Upon finishing listening, the five disciples were all full of pain and remained silent.

After a while, Luo Jia painfully said, "Disciple... admits fault!"

With one statement "disciple admits fault," it was evident Luo Jia no longer hinders Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures!

And Chen Zhixiao, Qin Xin, Nong Shuang, and Hu Qi could only follow Luo Jia in bending down to bow, no longer hindering Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures!
