752: Chapter 496 752: Chapter 496 In Jiang Tang’s mind, the largest gemstone naturally had to be made from Sun Goldstone.
When refining this magic artifact, he included defense, attack, and spatial functions.
Since he used materials capable of carrying space, he certainly intended to utilize their full capabilities.
Jiang Tang had previously learned the basics of Artifact Refining and was now preparing to practice advanced Refining Artifacts Spells, with the intention of crafting jewelry for his sister disciple as a form of practice.
He wasn’t afraid of wasting the materials, such as Sun Crystal Stone, Moonlight Crystal Stone, Crystal Stones from the Dragon King Palace; moreover, he remembered the Fire Crystals from inside a volcano.
Jiang Tang planned to refine a type of hairpin with a dangling ornament that possessed fire attack functions, though such jewelry could only be gifted to someone with a Fire Spirit Root.
Weiwei, his senior sister disciple, could own it, but wouldn’t be able to activate its superior functions.
An hour later, Jiang Tang could feel that flying arrows had already reached the skies above the Capital City.
His path-finding magic artifact managed to penetrate the Capital’s protective walls, bypassing the city’s formation without the Protector Soldiers even noticing, and swiftly entered the Capital’s high-altitude airspace.
This was the strength of his Immortal Treasure, not something that ordinary formations could hinder.
Jiang Tang was entering the final stages of crafting the jewelry he envisioned.
He wanted to endow the artifact with evil-suppressing capabilities, incorporating Buddhist Spells into it to enhance its defensive attributes.
In other words, what people refer to as an amulet.
This type of evil-suppressing amulet wards off humans, ghosts, demons, and other malevolent beings.
If the opponent strikes forcefully, they will face an even greater counterforce.
Jiang Tang also secretly infused the treasure with a surge of Spiritual Energy from his internal space.
Should an enemy forcefully attack the master of the artifact, they could face a counterattack a hundredfold more powerful.
This might even reduce the adversary to smithereens.
Jiang Tang treated this sister disciple like his own kin, despite no blood relation.
Yan Weiwei’s cultivation was only at the Golden Core level, so he worried she might face danger in the Capital City.
Although her brother-in-law, Ye Tian, was respectable, his potential romantic entanglements and unruly behaviour might harm his sister disciple.
Jiang Tang’s concerns were not unfounded; Ye Tian, being a Young General, was reputedly admired by numerous ladies of the Capital.
Likewise, he himself, with no significant background, had attracted so many women simply because of his talents.
Even if Ye Tian did not harbor any flirtatious intentions, there was no guarantee that his sister disciple would not get hurt.
Jiang Tang infused the artifact with one wave of Spiritual Power after another, filling it with ten abundant types, each precisely embedded into the mechanisms of the artifact.
Ten strands of Spiritual Power could deliver fatal strikes to ten individuals who might wish to harm his sister disciple.
This was an artifact endowed with the power of a Mahayana.
All these forces were amassed from more than ten Great Power Holders, stored for a powerful attack.
Now, it was time to make full use of them.
With the artifact completed, Jiang Tang admired its beauty, thinking that if he were a woman, he too would have been drawn to such dazzling beauty.
Thinking of the nine women beside him, he resolved to craft a similar artifact for each when time permitted.
If gifting magical treasure jewelry to a woman signified a man’s love, with greater value reflecting deeper affection, he could certainly achieve that.
In his past life amidst a caring family, he never had the means to buy jewelry for someone he liked with such funds.
He had a secret crush, but had never been in a real relationship, let alone married.
Jiang Tang did not immediately descend the artifact to the General’s Mansion; he was waiting for those around him to finish their tasks and come out.
As for the kids currently meditating on the island, diligently cultivating in the absence of their master, he didn’t have time to care for so many children simultaneously.
Jiang Tang informed Weiwei that he had returned to the Capital City and would be back at the General’s Mansion later.
Lai Jianlin and Luo Yaxuan received Jiang Tang’s message, asking them to assist with the purchases.
Naturally, neither of them had experience in this area and could only seek guidance from the steward of the General’s Mansion.
The experienced steward of the General’s Mansion, having arranged many wedding gifts and dowries, listed some items which could be gifted by them personally, while others depended on the financial means and desires for showmanship of either the bride’s or groom’s side.
The steward knew that although the bride came from an ordinary family, she had a formidable backing—her junior brother was a Saint Master, who could possess the wealth of several cities.
It was like a single Elixir or an assortment of Supreme Elixirs that could fetch a city’s worth individually.
One such Elixir could indeed provide for an entire dowry for a wealthy daughter.
The lavishness of this dowry knew no bounds.
In reality, Jiang Tang could have managed the dowry without anyone buying anything, as in recent months many had exchanged their valuables with him.
A certain King had nearly emptied his treasury to present him with gifts.
Even an old eunuch had given him a considerable amount of jewels and riches, all of which could serve as a dowry.
Lai Jianlin and Luo Yaxuan came to Jiang Tang’s residence in the General’s Mansion to wait.
Upon learning of Jiang Tang’s return, Yan Weiwei, along with her parents and siblings, also arrived at the residence within the General’s Mansion.
Ye Tian was busy on his end, though he didn’t need to worry about purchasing betrothal gifts or other items.
He had official duties as the King, having received a Supreme Elixir, was engrossed in incessant cultivation and seldom involved in state affairs.
Ye Tian, along with a few high-ranking ministers, had to double their efforts in the Imperial City.
Meanwhile, numerous reports had piled up on the King’s desk, forming a mountain.
