Chapter 003: Equipment Repair Techniques
Materials required for repair: Level 1 Rock Python Skin
Lin Feng was momentarily taken aback, then greeted with a smile
The sudden information that appeared in Lin Feng's mind startled him, nearly causing him to lose grip on the short sword in his hand, leaving him completely stunned.
Liu Cui covered her mouth and chuckled, saying: "I just received last month's salary yesterday. You must have been so engrossed in your training that you lost track of time, right? Consider yourself lucky; the shopkeeper hasn't come in today. However, just now, Manager Li was looking for you, so it seems you might be in for another scolding soon..."
The low-grade magical artifact in Lin Feng's hand is already damaged by seventy percent. Although it can still be considered capable of "cutting iron like mud," that is only in comparison to ordinary objects. If it were to face another low-grade magical artifact, it would likely shatter after just a few strikes. However, if it could be repaired, it would undoubtedly be of great use
... ...
Having no further doubts about the "Equipment Repair Technique," Lin Feng organized his thoughts, returned to his bedroom to retrieve the seven low-grade crystal stones, tidied up his appearance, changed into a clean outfit, and then left his residence, preparing to head to the shop
... ...
Equipment Durability: 55%
"Equipment Repair Technique"? ! This is "Equipment Repair Technique"! ! ''
It is precisely the place where Lin Feng works, located on a relatively bustling street in the southern part of the city, covering an area of several hundred square meters, and is considered somewhat well-known in the southern region of the city
Lin Feng even doubted whether he was experiencing a hallucination, repeatedly confirming the information in his mind, yet it was undeniably real
... ...

Equipment Durability: 30%
In the game, materials are directly deducted from the backpack, but this is not the game; there is no game panel. How is this skill used? He can only guess and make do.
Although these magical artifacts were not his own, Lin Feng had seen them often and had become accustomed to them. However, today, upon seeing these second-hand magical artifacts, he felt an unprecedented excitement and anticipation
... ...
Lin Feng resembled a child who had just received a new and intriguing toy, eagerly picking up and examining each treasure displayed in the showcase, finding endless joy in the process
Standing behind the counter, Lin Feng pretended to inspect, picking up a black boxing glove from a book titled *Diagram*.
Equipment Durability: 70%
The skills learned in this game have also been brought into this world
Lin Feng shrugged, smiled at Liu Cui, and then turned around, only to see a person on his left staring at him in astonishment
Equipment Durability: 75%
He put down the boxing glove and picked up another golden wrist guard
The Zhenqi Pavilion primarily engages in the sale of magical artifacts, targeting the lowest tier of Qi Refinement stage cultivators. The magical artifacts available in the store are mostly of the magical tool grade, with a majority being of low and medium quality, while high-quality and top-quality magical tools are scarce. As for artifacts above the magical tool grade, there are indeed two low-quality treasures, serving as the 'treasures of the store'.
He discovered that the degree of damage to some magical artifacts was not as it appeared on the surface. Some looked relatively intact, yet were actually more than half damaged, while others appeared tattered but were only damaged by about twenty to thirty percent. Additionally, by using a restoration technique, he could also identify the materials used in these artifacts, which was quite a useful feature.
Lin Feng smiled and said, "Oh? Then thank you very much, Brother Cao..."
Oh? This magical artifact is ... ...
Indeed, is it you...
While examining these magical treasures, Lin Feng was also carefully considering what kind of treasures would be of the greatest assistance to his current self
Materials required for repair: Level 2 Iron Eater Back Armor
At this thought, Lin Feng's heart could not help but become fervent, and he felt an urge to immediately go to the shop to take a look
A flicker of thought crossed his mind, and two pieces of information appeared in Lin Feng's consciousness. A glimmer of joy flashed in his eyes as he searched around, eventually finding a rusty iron piece in the corner—this was a fragment of a broken iron pot from the previous user.
Lin Feng glanced at the short sword in his hand and set it aside. Repairing this short sword required Grade 1 Fine Iron, which he did not have at home. However, he could experiment with other materials.
In addition to selling, the Treasure Pavilion also acquires magical artifacts, and this business is often even better than the selling aspect. Frequently, cultivators bring artifacts that they no longer need or that are nearly damaged, along with those that are depicted in books, to sell. If the items are still usable, they are displayed for sale to other cultivators. If they are truly unusable, they are sold to those mortal 'collectors,' which can also fetch a good price
The proprietor of the Rare Treasures Pavilion is a middle-aged man in his thirties, who has already achieved the Great Perfection of Qi Refinement. He is currently preparing for Foundation Establishment, so he seldom comes to the shop. The affairs of the shop are all managed by Manager Li.
Lin Feng did not say anything further, similarly turning to walk towards his own counter on the left. However, no one noticed that after he turned, a fleeting glimmer of cold light flashed in his eyes
In the blink of an eye, the red glow vanished, and the iron piece also disappeared. In Lin Feng's hand, a kitchen knife gleamed brightly, as if it had just been freshly forged
In addition, the Treasure Pavilion also acquires various rare treasures, materials from magical beasts, and other 'miscellaneous items.' Most of these are materials for weapon forging and alchemy—of course, the Treasure Pavilion lacks the capability to utilize these materials, but it can collect them and then sell them to the largest magical artifact shop in the city, 'Wanbao Building,' and the largest elixir shop, 'Xiangdan Workshop'.
Equipment Damage Level: 20%
Thinking of the immense benefits that the "Equipment Repair Technique" could bring him, Lin Feng could not help but feel a surge of excitement.
Suddenly, a string of information appeared in Lin Feng's mind
... ... ''
These are the 'second-hand' treasures that the Treasure Pavilion recycles and resells
To select useful treasures, a shop is naturally the most suitable place, and it is also convenient
Upon regaining his senses, Lin Feng was suddenly overwhelmed with uncontrollable joy
After examining the iron piece with the repair technique, Lin Feng did not obtain any information. He contemplated for a moment, then brought the iron piece close to the kitchen knife in his hand, and tried to silently recite 'repair' in his mind
Upon entering the kitchen, Lin Feng glanced around, his gaze landing on the knife that was placed on the cutting board. He immediately walked over and picked it up.
... ...
The place where Lin Feng "works" is a small talisman shop. He has seen a variety of talismans, especially damaged ones, and can say that he encounters them almost daily. Although they are all low-grade talismans of the artifact level, they are still quite precious among low-level cultivators
Materials required for repair: cast iron
Upon entering the store, a polite and crisp voice came from the right side, but it soon turned into surprise. Lin Feng turned his head to look and saw a young girl, in her teens with a delicate appearance, staring at him in astonishment.
This is ... ... This is ... ...
Equipment Durability: 40%
It worked! Indeed, it is possible! Haha!
"Brother Cao, what happened?"
Inside the display case, dozens of various magical artifacts are neatly arranged, including short swords, gauntlets, wrist guards, and armor... and so on. However, they all share a common characteristic: all the artifacts appear somewhat old, with some even showing varying degrees of damage.
This young woman is one of his colleagues, named Liu Cui, who is responsible for the sales of new products and is generally quite pleasant.

Materials required for repair: secondary ironwood
Lin Feng was deep in thought, yet he did not move slowly. In no time, he arrived at the Zhenqi Pavilion, only to find that the shop door was already open and business had commenced. He immediately walked inside
After a few seconds of being stunned, Lin Feng finally reacted, his eyes wide open, filled with an expression of disbelief.
Lin Feng smiled awkwardly and said, "Well, I overslept this morning and didn't pay attention to the time. The shopkeeper hasn't come, right?"
Seeing that this magical artifact was somewhat special, Lin Feng reached out and took it out. Beneath the artifact was a piece of paper, on which the characteristics of this magical artifact were written.
Welcome, what would you like to buy, senior... Oh? Lin Feng? You finally arrived! I can't believe you're late; this is unlike you...
In the realm of cultivation, magical artifacts are classified into five levels: Dharma Tools, Treasure Tools, Spirit Tools, Dao Tools, and Immortal Tools. Each level is further divided into four grades: inferior, medium, superior, and exceptional. The most common and widely used are naturally the lowest levels, Dharma Tools and Treasure Tools, which is why weapons used by cultivators are collectively referred to as 'magical artifacts.' As for Spirit Tools, they are treasures that are hard to come by in the circles of lower-level cultivators, typically only possessed by those at the Golden Core stage or above, as well as formidable cultivators from ancient texts. Higher Dao Tools are even rarer, and even ancient beings at the Nascent Soul stage may not possess them. Immortal Tools, on the other hand, are essentially 'legendary' magical artifacts, with very few existing across the entire Cloud Continent. Whenever an Immortal Tool appears in the world, it leads to a bloody struggle for possession.
While pondering in his heart, Lin Feng walked briskly towards the shop...
Suddenly, Lin Feng noticed a strange artifact placed on the far right of the display case, and he was momentarily taken aback. He then reacted, saying, "Oh, is this the damaged artifact that Cao Yang just mentioned he helped me acquire?"
Lin Feng's eyes sparkled with excitement as he laughed heartily
Now, he is not in a hurry to use these few spirit stones for cultivation. Instead, he plans to use them to purchase one or two damaged magical artifacts and some materials. He intends to first check in the shop, and if nothing suitable is found, he also plans to take a trip to the free trading market in the east of the city to see if he can find some good items there
Lin Feng is a 'sales consultant' in this Treasure Pavilion, specifically responsible for the buying and selling of second-hand magical artifacts
In the next moment, a surprising scene unfolded for Lin Feng: he felt a slight loss of the limited true energy within him, and then a burst of red light suddenly appeared, resembling flames. This light enveloped the kitchen knife and the iron piece in his hand, and he vaguely perceived that the iron piece rapidly disintegrated and then merged into the kitchen knife.
It's nothing, just a small effort... I won't say more, I have to get back to work... Cao Yang waved his hand and then turned to walk towards his counter
After a period of excitement, Lin Feng finally managed to calm down, his eyes sparkling with brilliance as his mind raced with thoughts again
Materials required for repair: Grade 1 black silkworm silk
Sigh, let it be a reprimand, as long as my wages are not deducted... Alright, I will go back to work now...
Moreover, Lin Feng also thought that in addition to this magical artifact, he could seek out other, even better and more useful damaged artifacts, repair them, and then put them to use again
This is a medium-grade magical artifact, one rank higher than that boxing glove, and the required materials are also of a higher standard
Treasured Artifacts Pavilion
However, before that, it is necessary to conduct an `experiment' on https://m.hetushu.com.com
Materials required for repair: Level 2 metallic ore
Equipment Durability: 0
Moreover, without delving into matters that are too far-reaching, the most important point is that the emergence of this skill provides significant assistance in addressing the current difficulties
Equipment Durability: 60%
Cao Yang seemed a bit lost in thought. Upon hearing Lin Feng's question, he was startled back to reality, offering a somewhat awkward smile and waving his hand, saying, "Oh... it's nothing, just a bit curious why my usually punctual younger brother Lin is late today. It's quite unexpected... Haha! Well, since you're here, you should get to work. A guest just came in to sell a damaged magical artifact, and I have taken care of it for you!"
If I could really use this "Equipment Repair Technique" like in the game, that would be wonderful! This skill has limitless potential! In the world of cultivation, there are so many broken magical artifacts that others cannot use. If I were to obtain them and then repair them...
Oh? So it has already been damaged by more than half? From its appearance, I thought it was only damaged by about twenty to thirty percent..." Lin Feng's gaze flickered, somewhat surprised, while he pondered to himself, "The repair material is 'Hundred-Legged Black Silkworm Silk.' Does this mean that the treasure itself is made from this material?"
This person has a somewhat slender build, with a pointed chin and thin lips. He is another 'colleague' of Lin Feng, named Cao Yang, who is primarily responsible for the procurement of various materials. He is somewhat stingy and has a relationship with Lin Feng that is neither particularly good nor particularly bad
Materials required for repair: Grade 1 wrought iron
A glass display case approximately 1.5 meters high, 2 meters wide, and over 10 meters long serves as Lin Feng's 'station.' This structure is similar to the counters found in jewelry stores on Earth, also composed of transparent 'glass.'
There is no attribute panel, and I am unaware of the specific details of this skill... In the game, this skill has levels; if it is the same in this world, then I might only be able to repair magical artifacts of the level of a magical tool... If that is indeed the case, I fear I will still need to 'level up'...
Repair successful
No need for repairs
