Di Jiu had possessed the skills to refine high-grade Dharma weapons in the first place. However, now that he had obtained a higher-level flame and better quality materials, he believed that he would be able to refine a high-grade Dharma weapon.
When Di Jiu took out the Luminous Starry Sky, the Heaven Saber Pure Gold landed on the Luminous Starry Sky and started to melt.
The Heaven Saber Pure Gold was a priceless treasure for saber weapon refinement. During the melting process, Di Jiu could sense the murky fluctuation of the saber intent’s aura.
Half a day passed. When the shape of a saber-like weapon appeared within the Luminous Starry Sky, Di Jiu lifted the Violet Aqua Sand and threw it into the flame.
The moment the Violet Aqua Sand came into contact with the Luminous Starry Sky, it dispersed into an infinite number of sand grains and transformed into hundreds of millions of sparks that merged into the Heaven Saber Pure Gold. Di Jiu almost suspected that he had seen the boundless galaxy disappear in an instant without a trace.
His Spiritual Force made the saber weapon’s embryonic form roll continuously in the flame. Thanks to the guidance of his Spiritual Force, the saber embryo kept changing form.
At first, Di Jiu could only sense the saber intent changes of the saber embryo. This saber intent originated from the saber intent the Heaven Saber Pure Gold already possessed, which had been born naturally. The saber intent was continuous and pure, yet it lacked some form of intelligence and killing intent.
Despite its lack of intelligence, thanks to the condensing of the saber intent, the saber intent within the saber embryo still formed a simple saber aura. This saber aura grew increasingly powerful, as if it was about to rush out of the Luminous Starry Sky and disperse. A faint killing intent was growing within this continuous saber aura.
Di Jiu had never experienced anything like this before. His Spiritual Force quickly repressed this saber aura. Within moments, Di Jiu was submerged into this continuous saber intent and saber aura. Then, he sensed that the saber intent was also merging with the saber aura within the flame itself.
Di Jiu used the Cyclone Saber Move, the Wind-Rustling Move, the Split-Wave Saber Move, and the Sky Screen Saber Move…
As one saber move after another was executed within the Luminous Starry Sky, an element of intelligence was added in the saber intent of the saber embryo inside the flame.
For the third time, Qian Fenghua stopped refining the array flags and looked in shock at the saber embryo within Di Jiu’s Luminous Starry Sky. That was how Di Jiu had been able to get underneath the Sky Market unscathed when he was only at the Essence Soul Realm. Di Jiu had actually come into contact with the Law, which was something unheard of. Given Qian Fenghua’s cultivation, he should have come into contact with the Law as well. However, although he had discovered what the Law was, he had yet to come into contact with it.
The saber embryo rolled in the flame for an unknown number of days. When the saber aura within calmed down, Di Jiu woke up with a start.
The saber embryo had already taken shape. Di Jiu was anxious, for he had yet to put any restrictions within it. A saber weapon would be considered a failure if it took shape before any restrictions were placed on it.
Both the Heaven Saber Pure Gold and the Violet Aqua Sand were extremely valuable to Di Jiu. Obtaining these two items again if they were destroyed would be a very difficult task to accomplish.
Suddenly, Di Jiu was pleasantly surprised to discover that there was no need for him to place any restrictions. The mysterious, esoteric saber intent served as a replacement for his restrictions. Even before the saber was completed, it was already considered a supreme-grade Dharma weapon. The saber intent had replaced the restrictions, so no one else would be able to take his saber. Di Jiu would be the only one who would be able to use it.
Clink! A clear sound suddenly rang as a plain saber covered in a blue mist floated in front of Di Jiu.
The saber had already taken shape. Its total length, handle included, was four feet five inches. In the middle of the blade were some indistinct saber waves. The saber blade was broad. Although the blade itself was narrow, it became increasingly broader at the handguard.
Without that layer of blue mist, this saber would have been just like any saber in a shop. Thanks to the replacement of the restriction by the saber intent, other than Di Jiu, everyone else would only see an ordinary saber.
Di Jiu liked the layer of blue mist at the saber’s surface, as it was like a layer of blue silk that obscured all saber intents.

That’s a good saber!
praised Qian Fenghua. Then, he added,
This saber of yours contains your saber intent. Plus, it was refined using your Dao fire. Don’t put it into your ring in the future. It could absorb a Heaven and Earth Qi Aura to upgrade when you carry it on your back.


Thank you for your guidance,
said Di Jiu, who was pleased.
He could hardly wait to find a Void Spirit Expert to use this saber on. Given his current strength, even fighting an Essence Soul cultivator would not pose a challenge.
When he recalled that sabers on Earth had red embellishments on their handles, Di Jiu was moved. He would carve some red embellishments on his saber handle as well.
Qian Fenghua was so stunned when he saw Di Jiu carve a perfectly fine saber that he could not help but laugh out loud.
This was the first time he’d laughed so happily in years. This young man was simply too interesting. No one would believe that a fourth-stage Essence Soul cultivator would do such a meaningless, child-like thing.
Di Jiu did not care how childish his act seemed. He liked this saber very much, and the Chinese liked to add some red color to their belongings for fortune and prosperity.
Qian Fenghua finally stopped laughing.
Are you ready?
he asked as he looked at Di Jiu.
Di Jiu looked in astonishment at the pile of array flags in front of Qian Fenghua before he asked in disbelief,
Sir, didn’t you say that it would take you a couple of months to refine the array flags?

Qian Fenghua nodded.
That’s right, but more than a month has already passed.


It took me a month to refine a saber?
Di Jiu asked in shock.

To be precise, it has been one month and 13 days,
said Qian Fenghua.
That was impressive. Di Jiu was left speechless. He had not expected that so many days would pass while he was submerged in the saber intent during the refining process.
Di Jiu casually put the saber on his back, stood up and bowed before Qian Fenghua once again.
Sir, before I leave, I would like you to help me with one more thing.

Qian Fenghua nodded.
Name it. My time is most likely up, but I will definitely help you with anything I can. If I’m unable to repair the Night Star Planet, please do help when you have the strength and opportunity to do so in the future.

Di Jiu hurriedly agreed.
Sir, I am also a cultivator from the Night Star Planet. That planet is my mother planet as well, so I will definitely find a way to repair it when I can.


Good, good…
Qian Fenghua said repeatedly.

I’ve actually come here from another planet. The Law in the Polar Night Continent was incomplete, so it would be extremely difficult for me to cultivate the True Form here and tear through planes. I really want to return to the original planet and take care of some unfinished business, so I would like to ask for your help in this matter.

Qian Fenghua nodded.
I have a Plane Rift Talisman here, but it would be useless to you. What you need is a Plane Split Talisman. I have one right here with me. However, given your current cultivation level, you wouldn’t know which plane to go to, even if you used the Plane Split Talisman.


Do you have a solution, sir?
asked Di Jiu excitedly. Thanks to the Plane Split Talisman, he would get the opportunity to head to the Everlasting Domain Planet [1. Previously translated as Everlasting Domain Planet].
Qian Fenghua hesitated for a long while before he said,
Your Spiritual Force must be extremely condensed. When you cast the Plane Split Talisman, you could use your Spiritual Force to capture the aura of any planes you have been to before. That’s how you could enter that plane. Given your current strength, your hopes should be low. Your probability of success is very slim.


I have cultivated a Forging Spiritual Art before,
Di Jiu said instantly.
My Spiritual Force is quite condensed.


You’ve cultivated a Forging Spiritual Art before?
asked Qian Fenghua in surprise.
Di Jiu took out a tattered jade slip and gave it to Qian Fenghua.
This is the Forging Spiritual Art cultivation technique jade slip I obtained.

Qian Fenghua took the Spiritual Force jade slip Di Jiu handed him tentatively and scanned it with his Spiritual Force. Five minutes later, he returned the jade slip to Di Jiu and said,
Your chances are very good. Thank you for showing me this jade slip. I’ve benefited a lot from it.


You can take it if you need it, sir,
Di Jiu said carelessly.
Qian Fenghua smiled.
That would be unnecessary. I’ve already memorized its contents. If I keep living in the future, all the credit will belong to your jade slip. You can take this ring. Everything you need is inside, including two array discs and a few array flags that I refined.

Di Jiu took the ring quickly. After a scan of his Spiritual Force, he detected various materials, two array discs and a pile of array flags inside it. Of course, there was also a Plane Split Talisman.
Di Jiu did not decline these items. This would be the last time Qian Fenghua repaired the Night Star Planet. He would get no more chances to do so if this attempt failed.
When Di Jiu accepted the ring, Qian Fenghua hesitated for a while. Eventually, he said,
If you possess the capability to enter the galaxy in the future and you encounter He Weiwei, will you help me… help me…

Di Jiu, who understood what Qian Fenghua meant, said immediately,
Sir, if I ever encounter He Weiwei and my strength is sufficient, I will definitely help you interrogate her.

Qian Fenghua sighed.
Forget it. Just ask her a question for me. The Night Star Planet was also her mother planet, so if she did this with the intention of leaving me, she could have just told me. Why did she have to split her own mother planet into two? This is…

Qian Fenghua never completed his sentence.
There was nothing Di Jiu could say. He disliked this He Weiwei. Qian Fenghua was an earnest person who reminisced the past. Di Jiu had benefited a lot from meeting Qian Fenghua, so he would have definitely helped him with this matter, even if Qian Fenghua had said nothing.
Qian Fenghua was silent for a long time before he suddenly said,
After you leave, I will be lonely for many years again. Perhaps it would feel like home if I was buried under the Night Star Sky Market…

Di Jiu did not reply. He had decided to come back and take Qian Fenghua away when he was able. However, given his current strength, there was no point in saying this out loud.
Qian Fenghua despaired for a moment before telling Di Jiu,
Your Dharma treasure is a saber, so you could cast some saber moves for me to see.

Di Jiu knew that Qian Fenghua wanted to guide him before he left, so he cupped his fists and bowed hurriedly. When he spread his hand, the saber on his back suddenly appeared in it.

That’s a good saber!
Qian Fenghua praised once again.
All treasures have a name. You refined this saber, and I can see that you really like it, so have you thought of a name for it?

Di Jiu thought before he said,
My saber was refined underneath the Night Star Sky Market using Violet Aqua Sand and Heaven Saber Pure Gold. Therefore, I will call it Heavenly Aqua.

His saber contained the intent of a river-enveloping mist and some shining moonlight. The only difference was that it was the blue mist that had enveloped the saber intent. If the name Blue Mist had been mighty enough, he would have considered calling it Blue Mist
