Chapter 873: Can You Repeat That?

The Cosmic Sword Technique was powerful in three ways.
Firstly, it could make use of the power in nature. The creator of the technique didn’t have a full understanding of the power of nature, but it was already miraculous enough for ordinary people.
Secondly, it was unstoppable. In fact, Han Fei had already comprehended the idea of full offense and no defense when he learned the Sacrificing Punch. He also had the Art of Invincibility. So, it wasn’t hard for Han Fei.
Lastly, the Cosmic Sword Technique’s feature was speed, which was something that all swordsmen cared about.
Wuming’s sword, for example, was faster than Han Fei even though he was carrying out the 64-Dimensional Fish Dragon Dance.
The same was true for Zhang Xuanyu’s Momentary Time. Han Fei could deal with the Instant Mystic Spear, but not the Momentary Time, which could manipulate time in a small range. It was impossible for him to catch up.
There was also Ye Baiyu’s pure speed. He was well-acknowledged to be the fastest in his generation. Han Fei had calculated that even though he used the Overlord’s Technique and the Phantom Glass Wings, he couldn’t be as fast as Ye Baiyu, unless the Agility of Wind could boost his speed by five times.
Taking all the three points into consideration, Han Fei actually only needed speed. He could already make use of the power of wind. After all, the Phantom Glass Wings weren’t useless.
Three days passed.
Han Fei understood about seventy percent of the Cosmic Sword Technique.
It wasn’t because Han Fei was smart, but because he knew a lot of battle techniques, and all battle techniques had something in common. When a person learned enough battle techniques, they could quickly pick up a new one.
Of course, he hadn’t fully grasped it yet. Han Fei believed that he was fluent with the technique and wasn’t too far away from fully mastering it.
It’s a shame that I can’t practice it in the refining room, or I’d definitely be more fluent with it. If I fight with Wuming more often, my expertise with the sword will surely be remarkable.
Han Fei was about to go out, when he realized that he couldn’t just tell Bei Huo that he didn’t figure out anything in the past days.
Therefore, Han Fei took out the Refining Divine Platform from Forge the Universe.
Thud!
When the Refining Divine Platform fell on the ground, Han Fei was dumbfounded to see the complicated patterns on it.
Are there array geniuses in the Ten Thousand Demon Valley too? How can they paint such complicated arrays?
Han Fei took out a bunch of skins and circled the four-meter-long Refining Divine Platform, studying it carefully.
One day passed.
Huh! I’m almost certain that there are three hundred interconnected arrays on the Refining Divine Platform. What a genius! It makes use of the spiritual energy inside the Refining Divine Platform to facilitate the fusion of the materials.
Wait, this is not good enough. There’s still the gravity array to compress the materials.
Right! There’s also a micro-refining array to polish the weapons again after the refinement.
Two days later…
Han Fei copied more than two hundred arrays to his fish skins and numbered them.
No, something is still missing. I don’t recognize some of the arrays. But I can’t tell them I don’t have the core arrays if I give them the methodology and the framework!
Han Fei thought of a lot of arrays and analyzed them in his head.
Well, this array is meant to increase pressure from inside the mold. I think I can find a replacement for that.
Also, this step of micro-refining isn’t really polishing. It simply compresses the materials more tightly and extracts the remaining spiritual energy inside the weapon. I can paint multiple Spirit Gathering Arrays for the same purpose…
…
On the sixth day since Han Fei entered the refining room.
Hum!
The door was opened. Hardly had Han Fei come out when he saw that Guan Qingyan was holding a fish skin in one hand and a brush in the other and painting something.
Han Fei was quite shocked. “Hey! Old Guan, are you trying to scare me? What are you doing here?”
Guan Qingyan put a smile on his rigid face. He laid down the fish skin and said, “I was waiting for you to sort out your thoughts. Since I had nothing else to do, I decided to study arrays.”
Han Fei was lost for words. I wasn’t running anyway. Did you have to stand in front of my door?
Han Fei heaved a sign. “It’s more difficult than I thought.”
Guan Qingyan became frustrated and thought that his wait was futile.
But then, Han Fei said, “I’ve been working devotedly for days without sleeping and eating. Thanks to my arduous efforts, I finally came up with a feasible solution.”
Hum!
Guan Qingyan was quite shocked. Didn’t you just say that it was more difficult than you thought? Why is it feasible then?
Guan Qingyan said, “Wait a moment. I’ll call Senior Bei and the others. Let’s talk later.”
Then, Guan Qingyan spoke to his waist tag. In half an hour, Mu Jia’er, Bei Huo, Yu Xu, Li Feiyun and some other refiners came close.
Mu Jia’er said delightedly, “Where is he? Did he come up with anything? Does it work?”
The bigshots were all here. The people who were working walked out of the refining rooms too, wondering why two five-star refiners had come to this place.
A moment later, Han Fei was surrounded by dozens of people in the lobby of the Scattered Stars Fourth Unit.
Han Fei looked at those people in shock and then at Guan Qingyan. “Is there a misunderstanding? I simply have an idea. I never said I could carry it out!”
Bei Huo said, “An idea is precious enough when it comes to refining, not to mention one that’s about Semi-Divine weapons.”
Li Feiyun also nodded. “When you said you had an idea to manufacture Semi-Divine weapons, I had to come.”
Yu Xu smiled. “Han Fei, you should be promoted as a four-star refiner. I’ve brought your certificate to you. As long as your plan works, this will be one of your rewards.”
Han Fei swallowed. He had underestimated the refiners’ persistence in refining. He was never a qualified refiner, and he never planned to distinguish himself in refining.
However, for some other people, especially for those lunatics in refining who considered it their life, they gave enough attention to any valuable guesses.
Taking a deep breath, Han Fei said, “Everybody, please come here and take a look.”
Directing everybody to the table in the lobby, Han Fei took out three hundred fish skins and a weirdly-structured item that was in the shape of a cylinder.
Han Fei unhurriedly paved the fish skins on the ground and hung some of them on the wall.
He said unhurriedly, “Everybody, Mu Jia’er and Guan Qingyan have proposed the idea of creating arrays as part of a weapon to craft Semi-Divine weapons. It proves feasible, but it has high requirements on the arrays and the refiners. If the array master’s work cannot be duplicated, I believe that the failure rate could be quite high.”
Guan Qingyan nodded. “Exactly. The failure rate is very high. We’re working on that.”
Bei Huo shrugged. “It depends on the expertise of the refiners. Failures are inevitable.”
Han Fei smiled. “Not exactly. The Semi-Divine weapons are based on ultra-quality spiritual weapons, whose quality is improved by some advanced materials or arrays. The key is arrays. Now, we’re adding arrays to weapons, but if we change our mindset, we can totally imprint arrays on molds and then apply the molds to weapons. In such a way, the refiners won’t have to study arrays.”
Frowning, Yu Xu said, “That does make sense. Are all your designs meant to make the mold?”
Han Fei nodded. “Exactly! In order to make a mold, I have to elaborate on its mechanisms first.”
Han Fei went on, “First of all, ignoring the arrays, the Semi-Divine weapons are essentially ultra-quality spiritual weapons, which too many people can craft. So, we can totally conduct the first two steps of the refining procedure manually. When it comes to the third step, Spirit Polishing, we’ll give the task to molds, which means we have to endow the molds with the ability to polish spirit…”
Like a chief scientist, Han Fei grabbed a fish skin now and then. “Look, this is the step of Spirit Polishing. We’ve gathered the essence of materials manually, and Spirit Polishing is meant to combine the materials. We’ll use this array as the basis and that one as support. Then, after about 83 steps, the job will be done. Isn’t it simple?”
Everyone: “…”
A dozen people nodded, but none found the task simple.
Han Fei said, “Spirit Polishing is simple. What’s hard is to imprint the arrays. Human beings have five classes. We have to offer five different ways to fuse arrays according to the classes. I’ve given the illustrations here. However, I can only fuse a dozen arrays for now, which might not be good enough… Look, you have to direct spiritual energy into the weapon, not its outside. This step isn’t too hard either, is it?”
Everyone: “???”
Han Fei took a deep breath and said, “Next step is the second polishing. I call it micro-refining. Blah, blah…”
Everyone: “???”
In the end, Han Fei pointed at the mold design he painted and said, “I’ve finally crafted his mold after days and nights of hard work… Blah, blah…”
Guan Qingyan looked at Han Fei with a stun, wondering if he could say something else.
Eventually, Han Fei finished an hour of perfect interpretation, or so he thought. He had the Refining Divine Platform right with him. If he couldn’t make a decent proposal with it, he would simply be too incapable.
When everybody was astounded and confused, Han Fei said slowly, “So, this is how it’s done. I’ve given you the plan. Some of the arrays need more studying, but I’m incapable of doing that. So, I’m afraid that you’ll have to work on it.”
Everybody was silent for a long time.
Suddenly, someone said, “Well, Han Fei, I don’t think I understood what you said. Can you repeat that?”
Han Fei: “…”
