“Huh? Is there really someone who is willing to sell you a fate dipper essence?” A voice came from the side, and it seemed to be a companion of the Grandmaster Blacksmith.

The voice that interacted with Shang Xia rang through the air the next moment with a trace of excitement. “This cultivator has a strand of Dark Void Life Extermination Evasion Fate Dipper Essence!”

“Oh? That’s a rare one. It will definitely benefit you when you craft weapons.” The other voice gasped after hearing the name ‘Dark Void Life Extermination Evasion Fate Dipper Essence’. However, he quickly followed up, “Oh right. What do you plan to trade for it?”

As the cultivator who spoke to Shang Xia earlier rummaged through his belongings, he replied, “I’m trading the piece of Serene Immersion Clay for it.”

“Oh? Are you going to make a loss again? His fate dipper essence might be hard to come by, and the price might be a little higher than other fate dipper essence. However, your Serene Immersion Clay is a rank five spiritual treasure and you have quite a lot of it. You might be suffering a disadvantage by trading it with him.”

His companion’s opinion caused him to hesitate slightly.

Shang Xia’s voice immediately came from the Talisman Fish when he noticed the change in atmosphere. “I can compensate you to a certain degree. Moreover, this deal benefits the both of us!”

The blacksmith’s companion replied immediately, “How do you plan to make up for the difference?”

Shang Xia felt a trace of relief washing over him and he thanked his lucky stars that he decided to let the fish swallow a bunch of essence crystals before sending it off. He asked, “How about an additional 50 essence crystals?”

“Of course! It’s a deal!” The blacksmith cried.

“Hey! You damn fellow, why haven’t you learned how to negotiate after so many years? You should at least get him to give you a mid-grade essence crystal” His companion snapped.

The blacksmith’s voice rang through the air nonchalantly, “It’s quite alright. A fate dipper essence will cost somewhere around the 300 essence crystal mark. His Dark Void Life Extermination Evasion Fate Dipper Essence is a little special, and it’s worth close to 350 essence crystals. I might have quite a bit of Serene Immersion Clay, but it’s reasonable to value it at 400 essence crystals.”

“Alright! Let’s do it.” The blacksmith’s voice rang in Shang Xia’s mind once again.

Having reached an agreement, Shang Xia’s Talisman Fish spat out the jade pendant before spitting out another mid-grade essence crystal.

The blacksmith’s companion immediately started to grumble. “See! I told you! You should have gotten him to give you a mid-grade essence crystal as compensation!”

Releasing a hearty chuckle, the blacksmith brought out some sludge that seemed to emit a soft green light before taking out 50 low-grade essence crystals.

Shang Xia’s Talisman Fish opened its mouth and swallowed it immediately. The moment he did, the extermination origin he sealed in the Talisman Fish back then came into contact with the Serene Immersion Clay and the Crimson Soul Tablet quickly gave its evaluation. “Serene Immersion Clay. Rank five Earth element spiritual treasure.”

Even though Shang Xia expected as much, he could heave a sigh of relief after seeing the tablet’s confirmation.

The next moment, the blacksmith spoke again. “Since we have already reached a deal, I should send you back to the Cloud Sea.”

Before he could do anything, Shang Xia hastily transmitted his voice over. “Please wait a second. I don’t mean to offend you, but I wish to ask if you are truly confident in crafting a divine weapon?”

The blacksmith didn’t say a word for some time and Shang Xia could feel that his sudden question caused some distress.

Indeed. The blacksmith’s companion responded in his stead. “What do you mean by that?! What does our plan or action have anything to do with you? And you! Why are you standing there in a daze? Hurry up and throw him back into the sea!”

“Wait! Please don’t misunderstand! I have long since been planning to craft a divine weapon, but I am unable to find a suitable Grandmaster Blacksmith to commission the weapon. I couldn’t help but ask since you are already planning to craft one. I mean no harm and I hope that you won’t misunderstand…”

The blacksmith eventually spoke. “I will fully immerse myself in preparation to craft my divine weapon soon and I’m afraid I won’t be able to accept commissions in the short term. I apologize.”

“That’s a shame…” Shang Xia was disappointed, but he didn’t give up. “I wonder if I can have the honor of getting to know your true name? Fellow cultivator, please rest assured that as a Grandmaster Blacksmith, there won’t be too many people in the world who wish to do you harm.”

Afraid that the other party might refuse to say anything, Shang Xia quickly added, “The faction I am from can be considered slightly powerful. There are seniors and experts stronger than me backing me up, and I might be able to provide several rare treasures you might need. If you wish to focus on your craft in the future, you might be able to use my services.”

Perhaps Shang Xia’s final sentence worked, the blacksmith’s companion roared with laughter, “This person is pretty impressive. However, our sect is open for business anyway and we aren’t afraid that other people might learn about us. It’s alright to tell him.”

A short moment of silence later, the blacksmith muttered, “Do you know the Hundred Weapons Mill?”

Shang Xia gasped in shock. No one knew if it was in realization or in shock.

Regardless, the blacksmith continued, “If you are truly sincere in looking for us, bring up the words ‘Void Dark Life Extermination’ when you arrive. I will definitely meet with you. Otherwise, my companion will convey my greetings.”

A burst of joy filled Shang Xia’s heart. “Many thanks, fellow cultivators! I will definitely pay you a visit in the future.”

Soon after, Shang Xia heard the blacksmith’s companion tutting softly, “That’s a Dark Void Life Extermination Evasion Fate Dipper Essence… You’re really lucky! Unfortunately, I have a strand of Hundred Bone Phosphorescent Fire Fate Dipper Essence that cannot be used to craft weapons…”

By the time the voice entered Shang Xia’s mind, Shang Xia was about to be tossed back into the Cloud Sea. He screamed hastily, “Wait, wait, wait! Do you just say that you have a strand of Hundred Bone Phosphorescent Fire Fate Dipper Essence?!”

“Fellow cultivator, you better not push your luck any further.” The blacksmith finally seemed to feel a little irritated by Shang Xia’s repeated questions.

“Hold up!”

Shang Xia wasn’t the one who spoke. Instead, the blacksmith’s companion stopped him from throwing the fish back into the Cloud Sea and he asked, “Are you interested in my Hundred Bone Phosphorescent Fire Fate Dipper Essence?!”

Flopping back onto the platform, Shang Xia apologized to the blacksmith before chatting with his companion. “Fellow cultivator, are you willing to make a trade? If you are, I need to ensure that the Hundred Bone Phosphorescent Fire Fate Dipper Essence is something I can use.”

“That’s easy!” The blacksmith’s companion spoke before passing something to the blacksmith. His explanation soon followed, “According to the rules set by the 3 super factions, you found the fish. You need to be the one to hand the treasure over.”

Realizing that Shang Xia was serious and wasn’t playing around, the blacksmith didn’t hand the Hundred Bone Phosphorescent Fire Fate Dipper Essence over directly. Instead, he started to explain, “The Hundred Bone Phosphorescent Fire Fate Dipper Essence is extremely sinister in nature. It applies to both cultivation and weapon crafting. My companion obtained the Hundred Bone Phosphorescent Fire Fate Dipper Essence a long time ago, but he can’t find a use for it. Well, that’s not actually true. He just doesn’t have the guts to do anything with it. I need to ensure that you’re clear about this before you accept the trade.”

A helpless sigh came from the side. “Ha… You simple-minded fellow! Since he already knows that the Hundred Bone Phosphorescent Fire Fate Dipper Essence is, what’s the point of explaining it again?!”

The blacksmith ignored his companion as he awaited Shang Xia’s answer.

Unlike what the companion said, Shang Xia didn’t know jack shit about the Hundred Bone Phosphorescent Fire Fate Dipper Essence. He was shocked by the sudden introduction, but he wasn’t too afraid. He had the Crimson Soul Tablet and he wasn’t afraid of the backlash of a fate dipper essence.

Whatever the case, Shang Xia had to admit that the blacksmith was an honest and sincere person.

If anyone else was in his place, they would probably act like his companion. They would stop at nothing to sell the Hundred Bone Phosphorescent Fire Fate Dipper Essence. No one would bother with an explanation! At best, they would give him a reminder after the deal was done. Even that would make them seem really kind.

The more Shang Xia thought about it, the better his impression of the blacksmith. He chuckled happily, “It’s alright! As long as you stuff the Hundred Bone Phosphorescent Fire Fate Dipper Essence into the fish’s belly, I will be able to determine if it’s of use to me.”

The fisherman nodded before placing a cube beside the Talisman Fish. There was a smoldering green flame the size of a bean flickering in there and it resembled ghostfire that had been forcefully sealed in the object.

Swallowing the cube, Shang Xia’s Crimson Soul Tablet quickly gave an evaluation. “Hundred Bone Phosphorescent Fire Fate Dipper Essence. Ding Fire Fate Dipper Essence.”

Shang Xia made up his mind immediately. He didn’t expect that he could find another useful treasure after obtaining the Serene Immersion Clay.

Spitting out the cube, Shang Xia asked, “What does your companion want in return?”
