Chapter 1244: 1244
Deep within the northern peak of the Crafting School . The stone doors to the belly of the mountain swung open wide to reveal Bai Yunfei striding in .
A figure materialized from the flames when Bai Yunfei appeared and quickly took on the form of Heavenfire .
“What is it, Yunfei?”
“Everything’s going well so far . Ah’Rui is fine, Dongfang Ming is dead, and his core is destroyed . ”
“Very well then . ” Heavenfire sniffed, “Not even death is good enough for the likes of him! And so goes for the demonic core . Such a thing is not meant to exist . ”
“Senior Heavenfire,” Bai Yunfei spoke up, not willing to spend any more time on the superfluous details, “Let’s get started crafting . Master is slowly getting weaker, it’d unwise to stall any longer . ”
“Indeed . Let us begin at once!”
Nodding, Bai Yunfei sat down on the ground and waved his hand . With a ‘bang’, the Dualflame Cauldron slammed down onto the ground in front of him . A stream of materials appeared out of thin air to float around the cauldron, among those materials were the Heaven’s Bloodtears and the dagger demon armament .
He was planning to ‘reforge’ the soul armament!
The cause of Zi Jin’s current plight was because of this dagger . To eliminate the dagger would be to eliminate the problem, but there wasn’t really an easy way to go about it . Upgrading it to +11 wouldn’t necessarily mean it’d become his soulbound armament, and upgrading it to +12 was a risky venture . Considering the odds, Bai Yunfei decided it was better to reforge the soul armament and then upgrade it after .
Bai Yunfei didn’t know what the Heaven’s Bloodtears was capable of, but Heavenfire was fortunately knowledgeable about its properties . The two conferred quickly about what materials would be best for the task, and the Heaven’s Bloodtears was chosen to be used as the primary material to reforge the dagger demon armament to increase its power .
That being said, increasing the power of this dagger wasn’t the primary goal of Bai Yunfei . His goal first and foremost was to elevate his compatibility with it . With Heavenfire’s help, Bai Yunfei was confident his compatibility with the dagger would be quite high . He was ninety percent confident that his compatibility would be high enough to reach the soulbound armament level after upgrading it as well .
So he came to Heavenfire the moment the matter with Huangfu Rui was dealt with . The Core Stone was temporarily given to Tang Xinyun for safekeeping on the main peak so Huangfu Rui and the red magiboar could focus on their breakthrough . But since the elemental energy within the Core World wasn’t enough, the Core Stone had to supplement it by drawing in the energy from the real world . As a result, the skies above Mt . Crimson was a chaotic influx of fire .
Done with the prep work, Bai Yunfei gave a nod to Heavenfire and slammed a palm to his chest . In response, his fireseed popped out from him and flew into the Dualflame Cauldron .
“Bang!!” The cauldron roared to life at once with a heat hot enough to immediately raise the temperature of the room .
At the same time, Heavenfire burst apart into a wisp of fire to flow into the cauldron . It trembled once when Heavenfire entered it and began to expel flames twice as strong .
Exhaling softly, Bai Yunfei waved his hand . The dagger and the Heaven’s Bloodtears floated into the cauldron and was soon followed by the other materials…
……
The passage of time flowed as it always did . Slowly, but surely, twenty hours had passed before…
“Boom!!”
An ear-deafening explosion cracked apart the silence in the room as a pillar of flames jettisoned out from the cauldron . Slamming into the roof of the cave, the flames billowed out throughout the room, dying the air with a blood-red color . It seemed as though the flames themselves were dyed the color of blood as it danced, but it soon dissipated as the cauldron extinguished itself and sent its fireseed back into Bai Yunfei .
Fatigued, but otherwise excited, Bai Yunfei took the newly reforged dagger into his hand .
It was the same demon armament, but its outer shape had changed just a bit . Standing at two finger-widths wide and two-thirds of a meter tall, the demon armament was scarlet in color . Elemental fire rose from the blade, but there was also a paradoxically cold feeling stemming from it . But the most particular detail about the demon armament were the small blood-red markings on the surface of the blade . They looked like blood drops in a way not too different from the drops in the Heaven’s Bloodtears .

Bai Yunfei grew happier when he saw the stats of the item .
Not only had the dagger grown in strength when he upgraded it, but it had also a huge leap in soul compatibility . A compatibility of 30% was nothing to scoff at .
