Chapter 595 - 259: Three-Attribute Steel Needle! Sect’s Base Upgrade! (2)

These suggestions completely ignore the life pressures and realities faced by young people, it’s utterly "Let them eat cake."

What’s crucial, is that people aren’t fools. When they hear experts saying stuff like ’High salaries will cause young people to lose their motivation to strive,’ everyone knows that these experts are complete nonsense.

Chen Han glanced at the comments, and his lips curled into a smile:

"Dummy!"

"Hey there, pseudo-expert!"

"Rare to see such a dumb pseudo-expert on Tiao Yin today."

"..."

They were almost all curses, clearly showing that people’s eyes were sharp and bright.

Chen Han wasn’t even bothered to engage with such people.

Fortunately, this video went viral, its online popularity is rising steadily, it helps him attract another wave of attention, and increases his reputation significantly.

After putting away the phone, he turned to check the data on the sect’s base in his mind:

Level: Level 5 Sect’s Base

Effect: Ancient +2, Aesthetics +2, Solid +2....

...

Upgrade requirements: 1. Wealth: (265,913,200/200,000,000). 2. Reputation: (5,930,000/1,000,000). 3. Wish Power: (9,605/10,000)

The three conditions for upgrading the sect’s base, the wealth requirement was already met long ago, and it increased further during this time.

The reputation after refining Spirit Jade Balls decreased to over 4,400,000, but recently he hit several hot topics, gained a lot of traffic, and his followers increased.

Especially when he went out wearing the Ancestral Master’s Daoist Robe, with Transcendence +2, Immortal-like Demeanor +2, Charm +2, Aesthetics +2, it triggered a hot trend, gaining him a large wave of followers.

Currently, he has 5,930,000 in reputation, even if he spends 5,000,000 to upgrade Spirit Jade Balls now, with the video hitting hot topics again, he should meet the 1,000,000 reputation upgrade requirement tomorrow.

Moreover, Wish Power is already 9,605, just over 300 away from 10,000.

That is to say, as he expected, by tomorrow morning, after the clan members finish their morning lesson at Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable, the Wish Power requirement will be met too.

Thinking that way, Chen Han directly took out the Spirit Jade Ball, deciding to spend 5,000,000 reputation to upgrade one level first.

Previously, a Level 5 Spirit Jade Ball’s shield could defend against sniper rifle bullets without issue, now with one level up, the Spirit Jade Ball’s defense would be greatly enhanced.

[You spent 5,000,000 reputation to upgrade the Spirit Jade Ball, Level 5 Spirit Jade Ball’s level is being increased...]

Upgrading from Level 5 Spirit Jade Ball to Level 6 Spirit Jade Ball obviously requires a lot of time, after spending 5,000,000 to upgrade, he stored the Spirit Jade Ball into the game warehouse.

Just then, footsteps sounded outside the courtyard, and a Demon Suppression Hall member came in pulling a small cart: "Patriarch, there’s a package for you."

Currently, most members of the Chen Family have returned to work for the family, everyone usually shops online, so packages for the Chen Family are quite abundant.

The Chen Family specifically set up a package station.

Packages ordered by clan members are naturally placed there, even daily, Demon Suppression Hall members rotate on duty to deliver the packages to each household.

"Patriarch, where should I place the package?" The Demon Suppression Hall member respectfully asked again.

"Just leave it on the ground!" Chen Han instructed.

After the person placed the package on the ground and left with the cart, he stepped forward to open the package, inside were the 10,000 steel needles he ordered.

Each box of steel needles is packed in specialized small plastic boxes, densely packed.

Thinking that these steel needles were to be controlled using Sword Control Technique for attacks, it was quite impactful.

These are all weapons and ammunition.

The key is that steel needles don’t get damaged as easily as toothpicks, after one attack, toothpicks basically shatter and break.

Steel needles are different.

So, these 10,000 steel needles alone are equivalent to a small armory, no problem, right?

Then, he stored all these steel needles into the game warehouse, then went to the Artifact Refining Furnace.

Using the Artifact Refining Furnace to refine these steel needles, maybe there’ll be unexpected surprises.

The Artifact Refining Furnace here has some wood prepared by Little Uncle, so he directly started the fire.

Soon, the Artifact Refining Furnace was ablaze with the roaring Samadhi True Fire.

Chen Han took out those steel needles again from the game warehouse, but, since the steel needles were in special packaging, there was no way to put them in directly, otherwise, once heated, the plastic packaging would melt, sticking to the needles.

He had to manually remove the steel needles from their packaging and then place them one by one into the Artifact Refining Furnace, before finally sealing the furnace.

[The Artifact Refining Furnace is sealed, Samadhi True Fire blazing, the Artifact Refining Furnace is refining artifacts...]

Perhaps because the quantity of steel needles being refined was indeed too much, this refinement time was quite lengthy, he had to stay by the Artifact Refining Furnace maintaining the fire.

Not until night fell did he receive the prompt of the Artifact Refining Furnace completing the refining process again.

Without hesitation, Chen Han extinguished the Samadhi True Fire of the Artifact Refining Furnace, taking out all those steel needles.

However, he wasn’t in a hurry to store the steel needles into the game warehouse, first placing them outside, he planned to test storing a few to check in the game warehouse.

[Steel Needle: These are steel needles that have been refined by the Artifact Refining Furnace, but due to being unable to withstand the power of the Samadhi True Fire, they became very brittle.]

Chen Han felt somewhat awkward when he saw the first steel needle’s remark.

This refining didn’t increase the attributes, instead, it ruined them?

Viewing two more steel needles consecutively, they turned out to be in the same spoiled state.

That was just disappointing.

Fortunately, the fourth steel needle gave him a pleasant surprise.

[Steel Needle (Refined): These are steel needles refined by the Artifact Refining Furnace, they received good tempering, Solid +1, Sharpness +1.]

As expected, the Artifact Refining Furnace couldn’t be so useless, all of them couldn’t be ruined.

This one was successfully refined, and it even gained two attributes.

The steel needle itself is more durable than a toothpick, now with Solid +1, Sharpness +1 attributes, using Basic Sword Control Technique would definitely greatly increase its power.
