Chapter 642: Magnificent

Translator: _Tat_  Editor: Rundi

Dong Fang Bi’s position in the Path of Crafts was very high and was merely below a countable number of elders.

Therefore, every day, he exuded an aura of seriousness and sternness. Other than the ones he’s been friends with for a long while, very few people dare to even speak to him. Yet now, he couldn’t upkeep his normal collectedness.

Because he had been waiting for the design before his eyes for a whole 10 years.

These 10 years, there hasn’t been a moment when he wasn’t wishing for someone to have completed the mission. Pity though, these 10 years, this mission was like an anchored rock in an endless ocean. He had only felt disappointment.

Yet now, this mission had been completed. He was also very certain that if the design was executed using the listed materials, one would truly be able to increase the defensive abilities of a ninth realm treasure to the eighth realm.

Therefore, why wouldn’t he be excited?

Looking at how excited Dong Fang Bi was, the other elders were a little surprised but quickly let it go.

They asked themselves and realized that if something they’d been waiting for for 10 years finally appeared before them, they would also be crying and trembling from delight. They wouldn’t react any different than Dong Fang Bi.

But it wasn’t the time for him to be crying and wiping away snots.

“Elder Dong Fang, please calm yourself down. We have something important to ask you.” A grey-haired elder said in a low voice.

“Something important?”

“That’s right. The rules of this division are set, we must assign a rating to every mission.” The grey-haired elder sighed helplessly, “However, we really have no idea how to rate such a piece of art. If we give a perfect rating, we feel like it would be an insult. But if we don’t give a rating, it’s against the rules.”

“That’s true. It seems like you have some eyesight.”

Dong Fang Bi nodded in agreement, “You should know that this mission, from certain angles, was a difficult problem that nobody could solve for thousands of years. To give someone who solved it a perfect rating really would humiliating.”

At this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Luckily, there was nobody else here other than these people. Or else they would be puking blood from this statement.

The perfect rating!

For a normal person, even acquiring once in their life would be an immense honor. Yet to Ling Xian, this had become an insult. How unbelievable was this?!

This fact also correctly reflected how heaven-defying what he did today was!

“I think, the word ‘perfect’ can only express how I am satisfied. It cannot describe the intricacy and the thoughtfulness of this design.”

Dong Fang Bi frowned. After thinking for a short while, he finally thought of a vocabulary that could describe everything this design was.

Using his finger as a pen and his Qi as ink, he wrote down a word by the design.

Magnificent.

Bright gold light was surrounding this word.

Just then, on the screen right behind the name of the mission, a word that nobody had seen before appeared. But it was a word that everyone knew what it represented.

Just like a giant rock being thrown into the middle of a pond, the calmness and clear water were no more!

The entire Hall of Missions roared!

Nobody at the scene could contain their emotions as they crazily screamed!

Magnificent!

Such a simple word, yet it weighed as much as a mountain, pressing down onto everyone’s chest, disabling them to breathe.

Not everything could be described as “magnificent”. Only those who have made a giant contribution or made a huge difference in everyone’s lives, deserve this word.

It also had to be an achievement that the majority of people approve of.

Honestly speaking, what Ling Xian did today couldn’t be described as “magnificent”. At least to most people, it didn’t really embody the definition of the word. But to Dong Fang Bi, to those on the Path of Crafts, this was something extremely magnificent.

Though one could not confirm that he had successfully solved the question that’s been around since the history of time. At the very least, he had provided a theory.

This was the same as giving craftsmen a source of hope. Hope that perhaps one day, they would really find a method to allow treasures to surpass the realm it belongs!

If one explained it this way, it was worthy of the rating magnificent.

At least inside the Hall of Mission, nobody argued against it.

Everyone’s face heated as they scanned all around in an attempt to pinpoint the mysterious master who had made such shocking achievements.

Even Ling Xian himself, after seeing the word magnificent, was a little dumbfounded.

Honestly speaking, he didn’t think too much of what he did. For one, he didn’t’ really understand the traditional way of crafting.

For two, because written in the inheritance of the Immortal of Crafts, there was a miraculous technique that allows crafts of one realm to exert power that surpasses its realm.

This was why Ling Xian was able to finish this mission.

Of course, he was not dumb enough to provide everyone with that technique. He merely used it as a hint and came up with his own design.

That, plus some defensive materials, theoretically could increase the ninth realm craft to release eighth realm power.

“Based on what I know, there is no such rating as ‘magnificent’. It seems like someone added it himself.”

Ling Xian bitterly chuckled. Ever since he began his cultivation journey, he had earned many titles,

such as heaven-defying genius, or best of the younger generation, but nobody has ever called him magnificent.

“Whatever. People can say whatever they want. As long as I can keep my head clear and not forget my original intentions because of others’ flattery, then I am good.”

Ling Xian faintly smiled. He no longer thought of this and began to focus on his jade token.

This mission was open to all levels, plus, the contribution point was as high as 100. All that coupled with curiosity, was the reason why he accepted that mission.

Now that he had completed the mission, the contribution mission naturally fell into his pocket.

And that mission was the last allowed mission he could do for the crafts division. In other words, if he still didn’t want to reveal his alchemy skills, then he had to leave the Hall of Mission now.

Therefore, of course he had to check just how many points he earned today.

He had reached the upper limit of allowable missions for both crafts and array divisions, which meant he completed 200 missions. With an average of 10 contribution points each, and add the last 100 contribution points for that last mission, he earned a total of 2100 contribution points.

Though compared to the total points required to buy the Shang Qing Technique, this number was nothing. To the descendants of Shang Qing Sect, this was a notable amount of wealth.

Especially since he earned all of this in just a few hours, the shock this brought was great.

Therefore, Ling Xian was very satisfied with this number.

“Though I am far away from getting enough to buy the Shang Qing Technique, to have earned more than 2000 points in just a few hours is not an easy feat.”

Smiling in satisfaction, Ling Xian placed the white jade token into his pouch and planned on going back to his residence for rest.

After all, after such high use of his brain, no matter how powerful he was, he could still feel exhausted.

However, just as he stood up, a burst of bright laughter erupted suddenly. Then, Dong Fang Bi pushed open the door and walked in.

The moment he saw Ling Xian, he froze. What he was saying also changed as a result.

“Sorry, I came uninvited. I hope a grandmaster can forgive- Eh? Grandmaster?”
