This Thousand-year Purple Pattern Crystal has been here for quite some time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you don’t fancy this piece, it won’t be possible to find another one for the time being.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Liiu Cultivator said with a smile, sizing up Lu Zhiwei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, fellow Daoist has a good eye. I do understand a bit about the Artifact Refining Dao.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a calm expression, Lu Zhiwei replied politely before immediately producing the Battle Merit Token.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She allocated thirty thousand Battle Merit Points to exchange for the Thousand-year Purple Pattern Crystal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fellow Daoist just entered the Crystallization Stage, right? We have some rather powerful Tier Four Spiritual Artifacts, talismans, and such. Are you interested in exchanging for some?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Liiu Cultivator said cheerfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not for the time being.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zhiwei responded promptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, refining the Cyan Void Mirror and using the reserved Red Silk Spiritual Artifact from her elder brother seems sufficient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And there’s still the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, being an Artifact Refiner herself,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>now having reached the Crystallization Stage, her Magical Power is at a new height, already capable of refining Tier Four Lower Grade Magical Artifacts, ascending to a Tier Four Refiner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the ability to refine artifacts herself, why bother exchanging for them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, just as Lu Zhiwei was about to refuse, Lu Ping’s voice sounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exchange for some, don’t just sit on those Battle Merit Points. Use them when you should.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Given your current abilities, while you can refine Tier Four Lower Grade Magical Artifacts, don’t skimp on equipment with a few ten thousand Battle Merit Points in hand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get a few Tier Four Spiritual Artifacts, equip yourself, and stabilize your combat strength.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As for updating magical artifacts in the future, you can refine them yourself then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ping’s tone carried a hint of advice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as the battle on the Southern Wilderness Battlefield isn’t over, you can’t skimp on Spiritual Artifact equipment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Investment leads to rewards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Equipping oneself with good Spiritual Artifacts can enhance combat strength, making it easier to handle demon beasts and earn Battle Merit Points, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Defensive Spiritual Artifacts can protect oneself, so it’s naturally not a place to skimp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Lu Zhiwei couldn’t help but smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon careful consideration, Lu Ping’s words indeed left no room for rebuttal and made sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, she heeded Lu Ping’s advice and said to the Liiu Cultivator, \"Then, let’s take a look at the Tier Four Spiritual Artifacts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Liiu Cultivator nodded, immediately inquiring about Lu Zhiwei’s requirements for Spiritual Artifacts and which type she wanted, to give precise recommendations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The number of Tier Four Spiritual Artifacts here wasn’t a thousand, but at least eight hundred, enough to overwhelm someone with choices.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following Lu Ping’s advice, Lu Zhiwei chose defensive types of Spiritual Artifacts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the multitude of defensive Spiritual Artifacts, she eventually chose three.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These three artifacts were all Tier Four Middle Grade in level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One wearable Profound Spirit Armor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Cyan Dragon Ink Jade Pendant, which could deploy a Defensive Light Curtain to block attacks from cultivators of the same tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Wing Feather Spiritual Artifact, Flowing Cloud Wings, that could significantly enhance Lu Zhiwei’s agility, similar to Lu Yuanshan’s Wind Thunder Wings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Exchanging for these three Spiritual Artifacts cost Lu Zhiwei another fifteen thousand Battle Merit Points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the exchange was complete, Lu Zhiwei considered that after the Southern Wilderness campaign, upon returning to the Cyan Mountain Sect, she would need to refine a lot of artifacts, so it would be wise to exchange for some Artifact Refining Furnaces and other refining equipment now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Artifact Refining Room in the Cyan Mountain Sect could currently only support refining up to Tier Three Top-Grade Magical Artifacts and couldn’t handle Tier Four artifacts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Refining Tier Four artifacts would require a Tier Four Furnace capable of withstanding Crystal True Flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When exchanging for refining furnaces, it’s better to choose well-made ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zhiwei indeed exchanged for a few Tier Five High-Grade Artifact Refining Furnaces for long-term future use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all this exchanging, Lu Zhiwei ended up spending over sixty thousand Battle Merit Points, reflecting on how Battle Merit Points seemed to disappear quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving the Resources Hall, Lu Zhiwei headed towards the direction of the Seclusion Chamber without delay and began her seclusion to refine the Cyan Void Mirror that very day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the young lady in seclusion, Lu Ping’s gaze soon shifted to Lu Yuanshan’s side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spending 5 Reputation Points, he used an Instant Transmission to appear beside Lu Yuanshan, and before him, a gigantic Demon Bird suddenly flew across the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The enormous body overshadowed the sky, casting a wide shadow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A powerful wave of demon energy spread out, kicking up a fierce wind, raising a cloud of dust in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roar!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Lu Ping could identify the giant Demon Bird above, a deafening beast roar echoed around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ping glanced at the massive Demon Bird flying overhead, recognizing it as a Tier Three Blazing Eagle, being fiercely attacked by two Crystallization Stage Great Cultivators manipulating their Spiritual Artifacts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then his gaze turned towards the source of the earth-shaking beast roar, witnessing Lu Yuanshan and Liiu Qiumei acting in unison, each striking with their sword towards the roaring Demon Beast!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, in the void, a brilliant blue light, matched with a dazzling white Sword Aura, erupted with intense Sword Qi, capturing attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Lu Ping’s expression grew serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Yuanshan and Liiu Qiumei to jointly battle, what kind of formidable demon beast was this?\u003C\u002Fp>",1243,"2026-06-05T21:35:46.147Z",1,"novelbin.me","fa55d894e573e4e74eecbdb6337c3d595deabae06a88d3050ffb5de883d653aa","incredible-sect-simulator-chapter-539","incredible-sect-simulator-chapter-537",1002,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fincredible-sect-simulator-cover.jpg"]
