Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1033: Chapter 93: Testing My Skills

As he spoke, Elder Hua took out a spiritual artifact.

It was a stick-like spiritual artifact, judging by its grade, it should be Heaven Rank Low Grade, which already belongs to advanced spiritual artifacts.

Such a grade of spiritual artifact, even in Lonely Moon Sea, only the most core disciples of the inner sect would have.

However, this stick was now broken into several pieces, and the spiritual power on it had completely dissipated.

Unlike ordinary broken spiritual artifacts, the fragmentation of this Sky Wolf Stick was thorough, almost describable as shattered.

”This stick is called the Sky Wolf Stick, and it belongs to one of my disciples. That child followed me in learning for over thirty years and finally managed to achieve third place in the last sect competition.” Elder Hua looked at the shattered spiritual artifact, eyes revealing a sorrowful expression.

To Elder Hua, his disciples were as dear as his own children, especially the original owner of the Sky Wolf Stick, a martial artist with high talent.

He was also the disciple with the highest cultivation level in Hua Feng over the years, and earlier deeply loved by Elder Hua.

”Elder Hua, are you talking about Zhao Tianlang? Didn’t he enter the Ancient Battlefield for trials after winning, has something happened to him?”

Manager Xiong, upon seeing the Sky Wolf Stick, couldn’t help but lose his voice and ask.

Zhao Tianlang was considered to be among the top ten disciples of Lonely Moon Sea in the past fifty years.

He was also the pride of the Hua Feng lineage, and this Sky Wolf Stick was Zhao Tianlang’s spiritual artifact, relying on it they practiced the Wind-breaking Stick Technique, which was quite famous in the entire Lonely Moon Sea.

For martial artists, spiritual artifacts are like their limbs; losing a spiritual artifact implies danger to the original owner.

Elder Hua nodded with a sigh.

”Yes, after obtaining the top three, Zhao Tianlang entered the Ancient Battlefield according to sect rules, staying for two years, until the next sect competition, then returning to Lonely Moon Sea. For the past year, Tianlang had been sending letters back, but just the night before yesterday, a sect manager responsible for Ancient Battlefield operations suddenly brought bad news, saying that Tianlang had suddenly gone missing in the Ancient Battlefield. When our people rushed there, they only managed to find this broken Sky Wolf Stick.”

Ye Lingyue couldn’t help but take another look at the Sky Wolf Stick.

It wasn’t her first time hearing the term ”Ancient Battlefield.”

She remembered, back in the Refining Hall, she would occasionally hear this name from Manager Xiong and other old miscellaneous servants.

Whenever the Ancient Battlefield was mentioned, Manager Xiong and those servants would show faces filled with reverence.

Ye Lingyue was sure that the Ancient Battlefield must be an extremely dangerous place, but at the same time holding great opportunities, otherwise Lonely Moon Sea wouldn’t allow only the top three from sect competitions to enter.

”Elder Hua, there is one thing I don’t understand. How is Zhao Tianlang’s disappearance related to you coming to me? If there is anything I can help with, please speak freely.”

Ye Lingyue, straightforward and forthright, noticed Zhao Tianlang’s importance to Elder Hua and Hua Feng.

Now in a hostile relationship with Moon Peak and Xuefeng, she wouldn’t miss the chance for goodwill with Hua Feng.

”Actually, I came today with two purposes. First, I want to ask you to help me repair Zhao Tianlang’s spiritual artifact and find Zhao Tianlang’s whereabouts.” Elder Hua looked at Ye Lingyue, eyes showing a degree of urgency.

Zhao Tianlang was missing, but no body was found, indicating he might still be alive.

”Repairing it isn’t a problem, but just with the Sky Wolf Stick, how can Zhao Tianlang be found?”

Ye Lingyue was puzzled, was this Sky Wolf Stick like her Qian Cauldron, containing an Artifact Spirit?

Beside her, Manager Xiong quickly chimed in to explain.

”Ling Yue, you haven’t been in the Refining Hall for long, so you don’t know some things. For every disciple entering the Ancient Battlefield, a spiritual imprint would be left by the sect elder on them and their spiritual artifact. These imprints can mutually sense each other. As long as the artifact remains, the original owner can be found.”

Only then did Ye Lingyue realize.

”I previously searched among my few Artifact Refiners, but regardless of the methods used, none could repair this Sky Wolf Stick. Time is pressing now, I urgently need you to repair this stick; if you can repair it, I will richly reward you.”

Elder Hua said sincerely.

The word ”richly rewarded” made Ye Lingyue’s eyes suddenly shine.

She couldn’t help but lick her lips and asked eagerly.

”If I can repair it, how much would you reward me?”

Elder Hua was taken aback, Manager Xiong embarrassed; what was going on with Ling Yue, actually asking Elder Hua for money like this?

Hua Wanyun laughed.

”Little girl, feel free to suggest.”

”Then... ten... ten Intermediate Spirit Stones.”

Ye Lingyue calculated; repairing a Heavenly-grade spiritual artifact wasn’t too complex now with her Heavenly Gang Refining and Ding Saint-level Cauldron Spirit, but she wasn’t sure if the price was too high.

After saying that, she looked at Elder Hua’s expression.

The latter showed a surprised look, Hua Wanyun and Manager Xiong both stunned.

”Alright, ten it is if you can repair it.” Elder Hua readily agreed.

Elder Hua thought Ye Lingyue would ask for a fortune.

After all, refining an ordinary Heavenly-grade spiritual artifact requires at least fifty Intermediate Spirit Stones, not to mention the much harder repair. He spent several hundred spirit stones just trying to get a few Artifact Refiners under him to attempt to repair this Sky Wolf Stick.

Elder Hua didn’t worry about spirit stones; he worried whether Ye Lingyue could repair the stick, given the failures of even those experienced refiner practitioners earlier.

Later, when Ye Lingyue realized she’d undervalued her offer, she was frustrated for a while, though that’s another story.

Ye Lingyue carefully examined the fragments of the Sky Wolf Stick and quickly identified the problem.

These pieces couldn’t be refined because they contained traces of Evil Qi.

This Evil Qi affected the repair.

Typical Artifact Refiners couldn’t refine Evil Qi, but Ye Lingyue was different, having the purifying function of Cauldron Breath.

She swiftly controlled the Cauldron Breath, absorbing all the Evil Qi.

She re-lit and fueled the furnace right in front of Elder Hua and others, spending half a day to successfully repair the Sky Wolf Stick.

When they saw the newly restored Sky Wolf Stick appear before their eyes, Elder Hua and Hua Wanyun showed a look of delight.

Manager Xiong couldn’t help but give Ye Lingyue a thumbs up, praising her.

”Excellent, truly divine work, it’s exactly the same. The spiritual imprint on it is retained too. This way, we can use the Sky Wolf Stick to locate Tianlang.”

Elder Hua gratefully nodded to Ye Lingyue, handing over the ten Intermediate Spirit Stones to her.
