The Rain Pavilion’s reputation increased dramatically thanks to Yi Tianyun. They gained a lot of customers after they started selling upper-level Spirit Weapon due to the low price. Plus, Yi Tianyun made sure they had enough Spirit Weapons to sell.
Not long after, Yi Tianyun realized that he had exhausted his spiritual power, he could use a recovery pill and combine it with Crazy Mode to improve its effectiveness, but that had its limit as well.
“Ah…” Yi Tianyun’s wobbled and almost fell to the ground.
“Young Master Yi, were you okay?” Zi Yuwei has been observing him the whole time. Although she was busy dealing with customers but never let Yi Tianyun out of her sight.
“Seems like I overexerted myself a bit, I didn’t realize that I had been forging for so long already …” Yi Tianyun shook his head.
After forging the sixth upper-level Spirit Weapon, he knew that this was his limit. He had been forging non-stop. Even though his spiritual power could be replenished using recovery pills, he still needs a good rest to recover.
“Young Master Yi, you need to rest. The customers can wait until you recover. You have been forging Spirit Weapons nonstop without resting.” Zi Yuwei persuaded.
Yi Tianyun nodded and asked: “How were things with the Wind Pavilion going? Have they made a move?”
“There have been no significant movements for the time being. They didn’t have that many upper-level Spirit Weapons, to begin with. They won’t be able to sell them at the same price as us, let alone cheaper.” Zi Yuwei knew that the Wind Pavilion’s business would crumble soon. “For a long time, our Rain Pavilion has been overwhelmed by the Wind Pavilion. Thanks to Young Master Yi’s help, we can turn things around”.
“There was no need to thank me.” Yi Tianyun smiled lightly, he had gained a lot of benefits here as well. There were a lot of materials available, so he could farm exp and improve his mastery. This was a very pleasant give and take relationship
“In any case, I, as the representative of the Rain Pavilion, would like to express our gratitude to Young Master Yi!” Zi Yuwei spoke solemnly. “If you will, I would like to invite Young Master Yi to become an honorable guest of the Rain Pavilion?”
“I don’t think that’s a problem, but I won’t come here that often. If you think that I will provide you with a Spirit Weapons after I become an honorable guest here, then your assumption is wrong.”
He couldn’t stay there all the time. He had come down here to purchase some stuff. If it were not for Master Kong, it probably wouldn’t have turned out like this. Now he intended to do as he planned initially, buy some materials, return to the Jade Palace, forge Spirit Weapons and then sell it, repeat.
This way, he could strengthen the Jade Palace, although it would be slow. Make no mistake, everything he did was not for the Jade Palace but rather for his aunt!
“I’m not pressuring you to stay. I just want to let Young Master Yi become our honorable guest. You can come again anytime you want.” Zi Yuwei knew that she couldn’t expect too much. But she knew that simply keeping in touch with Yi Tianyun would bring more opportunities in the future.
『Ding! Congratulations on completing a mission! You gained 5.000 exp, 100 favourability with Zi Yuwei, 10 prestige and 500 gold!』
『Ding! Congratulations on levelling up to the 4th level of the Spirit Refinement Realm!』
“Seems like all my hard work is starting to pay off…” Yi Tianyun felt really satisfied, staying here and continuing to forge earned exp much faster than killing monsters.
It’s just that the rewards were not as much as he expected. It was the same with killing monsters.
“Then I will excuse myself to my room and rest. I’ll continue to forge later.”
Yi Tianyun trudged slowly. He felt a little dizzy. After saying hello to the guests, he planned to go back to a room to rest. He intended to go back to the Jade Palace, after a few days, since there was not much time left to prepare to enter the Heavens Immersing Ancient Ruins.
When he returned to the room, he observed his status bar to see how he was doing so far.

CP: 382
Prestige: 20

Profession: Runecrafter (Lv.3), Blacksmith (Lv.3), Alchemist (Lv.3)
He earned a lot of exp.
But the difficulty of levelling up had multiplied once more. It was not a slight increase like before. But overall, it’s still not too complex, at least it was better than some of those crazy cultivation techniques out there. If he used those, there was no way he would breakthrough so easily.
“Not bad, let’s keep this up…” Yi Tianyun nodded, at the moment he was preparing to rest.
A cold wind buffeted him from behind, the cold air felt like it was stabbing his back, fast and silent.
『Ding! Warning! Warning! Danger! Danger!』
The system rapidly rang out in his mind, alerting him of incoming danger.
“Could it be…. an assassin?” he thought to himself.
The next moment, Yi Tianyun barked out a command, “Divine Armor, fully activate!”
All of a sudden, something crashed into him from behind and Yi Tianyun flew straight to the ground, but before he landed, he heard someone flying out and slamming into the wall. Then he heard him gasp.
“Who’s there!?”
Yi Tianyun was shocked, everything was so quiet. He didn’t sense anyone’s presence! If the system hadn’t warned him, he would have never expected somebody to attacked him. He didn’t expect the system to be able to warn him of danger. When he looked back, he found a man in black lying on the ground. Due to some kind of force, he was now lying on the ground.
“Fortunately, I have Divine Armor, otherwise I would’ve died.” Yi Tianyun gave the assassin a cold stare.
The skill attached to his Divine Armor was an ability called reflection, it would reflect half of the damage back to his opponent, but it would only reflect melee attacks!
“This, this power…” The assassin climbed up onto his feet and feeling confused. He didn’t know what sent him flying and inflicted such a serious injury on him.
“Who sent you ?” Yi Tianyun strengthened his gaze on the assassin and walked over, every step was heavy.
He saw that the assassin’s eyes moved slightly, then suddenly he bounced up and rushed to him. His speed was faster than the average cultivator. This assassin was, at the very least, at the 3rd Level of the Spirit Refinement Realm, which was quite amazing.
“Freeze!”
Yi Tianyun used the ability in his Frost Fist, spending some Crazy Points. The cold aura suddenly spread out and froze the assassin in the air! The assassin suddenly found himself unable to move.
“I knew this was how it would turn out. You would rather die than confess. I’ll grant your wish then… you can become my exp!”
“Crazy Mode on! Luck Aura on!”
After he activated both divine abilities, Yi Tianyun was ready. He smashed his Frost Fists against each other. His Frost Fist shone with a flash of light!
The assassin stared fearfully at the blue light, but there’s nothing he could do but accept his fate now.
“Boom!”
A heavy punch slammed into the assassin, and crushed him into icy dust!
『Ding! Congratulations on killing ‘Assassin’! You gained 8.000 exp, 300 Crazy Points, 1.000 gold, a shadow cloak, a scarlet dagger and the skill ‘Stealth’.』
Seeing that many rewards, Yi Tianyun lost himself in excitement, it was excellent in terms of quantity and quality! It was comparable to killing a boss-level monster, and then some. Presumably, this was all thanks to his luck aura. Two pieces of the assassin equipment were even dropped as rewards!
