First Immortal of Destiny

Chapter 44: Presenting a Treasure

"Buzz!"

After the inscription was completed, he pushed it slightly and embedded it into the broken armor.

The moment the inscription attached to the armor, the armor shimmered with golden light, and a cracked gap gradually repaired itself.

Next, he continued to inscribe the inscription according to the method, repairing the Magical Item. Compared to refining, repairing Magical Items was much easier and the process was not as complicated.

Shen Mo only needed to complete the inscription of some defensive attributes on the casting technique, enhancing the armor's defense.

Although the technique was simple, it still took a considerable amount of time.

During his first attempt at forging, Shen Mo focused intensely on every inscription and embedding, not daring to be the slightest bit negligent.

Unconsciously, a day and night had passed.

When he completed the last inscription and perfectly embedded it into the damaged armor, the tense strings in his heart finally relaxed.

All the inscriptions were carved.

On the silver "Heart Protector Armor," many pale golden crystals were added, completely repairing the broken parts.

He held the armor in his hand and felt its smoothness, without the previous rough feeling.

[You have successfully repaired the Profound Grade lower-tier "Heart Protector" armor. Upon first use, you have gained a lot of experience and details in forging. Your proficiency in forging has increased, and your forging experience has increased by 12.]

"Well, it may be ugly, but as long as the effect is restored."

He looked at the prompt that appeared on the information panel, feeling joyful in his heart. Then he repeatedly observed this completed work that carried his first forging effort.

It was still satisfactory.

After his repairs, the originally broken "Heart Protector" armor was as good as new.

Its defensive power was even stronger than when he first bought it.

After a day and night of tinkering, Shen Mo, who had finished repairing the "Heart Protector" armor, finally pushed open the door.

He walked out, intending to take a breath of fresh air.

At this moment, he was still the only one in the Immortal Cave.

Chen Mengze was probably on patrol.

As for Guo Zhao, he had just been rejected when he confessed yesterday, so Chen Mengze probably wouldn't go on patrol with him.

But he wasn't in the Immortal Cave either. Shen Mo didn't know where this guy had gone.

"Ying! Ying! Ying!"

Just as he was about to go out for a walk, he suddenly heard the sound of a spirit-hiding mouse from the stone pavilion.

It seemed that it had been waiting in the stone pavilion for a long time. When it saw Shen Mo come out, it became excited and jumped down the stone steps, heading straight for him.

It rubbed its head against Shen Mo's ankle, staring at him expectantly, as if it was asking for food.

"Oh, I almost forgot!"

Shen Mo finally realized when he saw it and slapped his forehead.

He had spent too much time forging earlier and had become confused, forgetting about the agreement he made with this spirit-hiding mouse yesterday.

"Wait here for a moment, don't move."

He instructed and went to the Immortal Cave's granary, taking out five pounds of red-browed deer leg meat.

Then he cut it into pieces, wrapped it in barbecue sauce, and placed it on the grill for cooking.

Shen Mo had been grilling meat a lot during this period, so he was quite skilled at it.

In less than the time it took for an incense stick to burn, he had grilled all five pounds of raw red-browed deer meat into golden and crispy barbecue, with a fragrant aroma wafting through the air.

"Ying!"

When the aroma of the grilled meat spread, the spirit-hiding mouse, who had been waiting by the stone pavilion, couldn't help but drool.

It hopped over, using both hands, and asked Shen Mo for meat.

Shen Mo held a plate of roasted meat, with a faint smile on his face, but did not give it to the creature immediately.

Instead, he extended his hand, just like it did.

"I told you yesterday, it's only fair to reciprocate. Did you bring me a gift today?"

"If you didn't bring one, then you can only watch me eat."

If you want to eat meat, you have to pay!

Shen Mo was not someone who would let others freeload.

"Ying! Ying!"

The spirit mouse spun around in place, then, to Shen Mo's expectant gaze, it opened its mouth.

From its bulging mouth, it spat out a Jade Slip.

"You actually brought something!"

Shen Mo's eyes lit up, and he immediately put the roasted meat on the ground and reached out to take the Jade Slip.

"Hiss!"

Seeing that Shen Mo finally put down the meat, the spirit mouse leaped up and immediately began to feast.

Shen Mo ignored it and used his Divine Sense to invade the Jade Slip, wanting to see what gift this little guy had brought him.

"Dragon Elephant Blood Demon Body."

When Shen Mo's divine soul sank into the Jade Slip, five large faint golden characters appeared before his eyes.

In the next instant, these five faint golden characters transformed into countless strands of information that entered his sea of consciousness.

After a long time, Shen Mo finally digested all this information and felt somewhat astonished. "This is actually a body cultivator Cultivation Technique!"

As the name suggests, a body cultivator Cultivation Technique is a type of technique that specifically hones the strength of the physical body and enhances physical strength.

Usually, this type of Cultivation Technique is the rarest and most expensive among the same rank immortal arts.

For example, a Profound Grade lower-tier attack-type Cultivation Technique may only cost seventy to eighty Spirit Stones, while a defensive Cultivation Technique is slightly more expensive, priced at around one hundred Spirit Stones.

The value of light body techniques is even higher, usually reaching around one hundred and twenty Spirit Stones.

Lastly, there are mental techniques and body tempering techniques.

According to the market prices Shen Mo had seen in the market, a moderately good Profound Grade lower-tier body cultivator Cultivation Technique would usually sell for no less than two hundred Spirit Stones!

"I've struck gold!"

Shen Mo muttered to himself, feeling ecstatic.

This spirit mouse really had a treasure in its hands!

Thinking back to his previous method of luring it with food to establish a reciprocal relationship, Shen Mo felt that he was truly clever!

"And this body cultivator Cultivation Technique, although I can't determine its grade, its level seems to be quite high."

Shen Mo immersed himself in the information in the Jade Slip once again, carefully pondering it, and said to himself, "Absorbing the essence of the Blood Demon, condensing the Dragon Elephant true body, this Cultivation Technique is quite remarkable!"

Shen Mo estimated that this body cultivator Cultivation Technique was at least a Profound Grade middle-tier, and it might even be higher!

"It's just a pity that the information in this Jade Slip is not complete!"

Speaking up to this point, Shen Mo furrowed his brows slightly and finally felt some regret. "According to the introduction of the Cultivation Technique, there are three realms in this body cultivator Cultivation Technique: Elephant Body, Dragon Body, and Blood Demon Body."

"But the cultivation methods recorded in the Jade Slip only include Elephant Body and Dragon Body. It seems that the Blood Demon Body has not been included!"

Frowning, he looked at the spirit mouse, which was happily eating with its mouth full of oil, and tentatively asked, "This Jade Slip seems to be incomplete. Where did you get it? Is there any follow-up content?"

"Ying! Ying!"

The spirit mouse paused its chewing motion, shook its head, and seemed to be telling him that this was the only copy.

It seemed to be a fragment of the Cultivation Technique.

Shen Mo immediately felt a bit regretful in his heart, but quickly adjusted his mindset.

He was already lucky enough. If he still felt unsatisfied, then he would be too greedy.

A few pounds of roasted meat had exchanged for this valuable fragment of a body cultivator Cultivation Technique. What more could he ask for?
