– Meanwhile in the secret chamber at Blue Flame Pavilion –

“How many kinds of materials have you tried?” Staring at the refinery furnace where spiritual essence light flashed, Li Haoran asked with a frown.

“Altogether 168 kinds,” Chen Rong said while recording information into a jade slip. “The ordinary bronze and iron are not fit for engraving array formations. Among the available materials, the Wind Ripple Iron has the closest properties, but it’s too hard and lacks flexibility…”

Each gun was an exquisite instrument, and the structure as well as the materials were meticulously selected. However, these materials were obviously not fit for the engravement of array formations.

Converting guns into spiritual artifacts that were used by cultivators was obviously not so simple.

“After trying so many artifact materials, you just can’t find anything suitable?” Li Haoran considered for a moment. “Last time, Mr. Fang mentioned that he would teach us high-school-level physics and chemistry, right? Put aside the things that you’re doing and learn more basic knowledge…”

“Your academy launched a large-scale dorm check?” Fang Qi’s face twitched.

He was sitting with Xu Zixin and Shen Qingqing in a restaurant not far from the Dongguan Book Forest.

Although not as luxurious as the Wind and Moon Pavilion, this restaurant wasn’t a small shop.

On a small platform to one side on the second floor, a grey-haired old man in a blue robe waved a folding fan and said, “Do you know who the three saints in Celestial Warrior are?”

It was clear that this senior was a storyteller here.

“Three saints?” Many people on the second floor froze for a moment. Is he going to tell the story of the three saints battling on the Immortal-Exterminating Ridge’?

“It’s said that this part of the story is enthralling.”

“I wonder if such figures exist in the real world!”

“…”

Fang Qi filled his wine cup while he listened to the story with disinterest. After all, he was a guy who came from the information era. “Ugh, is this the most popular novel here?”

Obviously, the audience members were listening to the story to kill time while they enjoyed their meals and wine, and they didn’t look too enthusiastic about it.

Shen Qingqing looked embarrassed; she had liked the novel before. But after playing the games in Fang Qi’s shop, she now found that Celestial Warrior was not nearly as enthralling as the grand and novel world of Diablo and the romance and conflicts in the Legend of the Sword and Fairy.


Long before Fang Qi traveled through time and space, terms such as ‘Three Saints’ had been discarded since they were cliché.

“We probably can’t go to the shop to play games in a short time.” Xu Zixin looked reluctant. “Lately, the academy is watching us closely.”

“They even resorted to the ultimate method of dorm checking…” Fang Qi nodded. “You indeed need to be more careful.”

“Sir, you don’t look angry at all. Why?” Shen Qingqing asked curiously.

“Ugh… That’s not something unusual.” Fang Qi looked cool and turned back to his meal.
