Forge of Destiny(Xianxia Quest)

Rainbow spirit is both a boy and girl. Huh. That's cool. Rainbow chan~~~~

Also meizhen got a bird spirit, an ice one at that I believe? Sent by her grandpa. Nice
 
WE BROKE THROUGH!

We can finally now have fun making plans instead of doing "Breakthrough x3; physical cultivation; epc." Flexibility is ours! Opportunities abound! Now we can be on the road to having fun weeks filled with action, exploration, cultivation, and relaxation!

FREEDOM IS OURS!

How foolish TT. Don't you know that when cultivation ends is when cultivation begins?


:V
 
I knew the Suyin talk wasn't gonna be as big a deal as Ling Qi and some people in thread were making it out to be. It was a good moment.

Also, sorry about not being careful Meizhen..., but to be fair, we didn't know that it was a moonlit gala until the Dreaming moon had already grabbed Ling Qi by the hand and tossed her onto the stage.
 
Well that was some friendship preserving advice, where do we sign up for Sixiang's newsletter?

Liking the market changes.
 
Ling Qi: "Alright, Meizhen, explanation time for why I was even at the Dreaming Moon's Gala. I was invited to go there in the stead of the New Moon and was scheduled to perform there without my knowledge or consent, after reaching the location I was surprised by the amount of Qi and was discovered, upon which I had no choice but to perform. I probably was safe because I was there under a kind of sort of invitation by the New Moon."
Meizhen: "What..."
Ling Qi: "Well, I got a puzzle box from the New Moon, had to solve it, gave me the location of the gala without telling me what was there, I explored it, but got discovered when I stumbled upon the gala."
Meizhen: "What..."
 
Thinking we buy a Greater Qi Card or two, put techniques in them, then give them to Meizhen for use against Sun Liling. Not because we think she needs it, but because we also have a score to settle with Liling and this is the best way for us to get in on the beatdown.
 
@yrsillar Ling Qi is not taller than GG. This is horrible.

Anyway, if we buy the exotic moon pills we have 75 dice + 5 bonus successes. So around 13% chance to get EPC5 this turn, which increases if we somehow do stealth (unlikely). I... think it's worth it. An expensive gamble (55 RSS) but 13% chance to net us an action is big.

Especially considering it's EPC5.
 
Look people.

Greater Qi Cards = Full Force Giant Gan Flexington Pawnch

I'm not sure if it's physically possible to win any harder than this, and believe it would be foolish to try
 
And even if it fails, we'll be in striking range of finishing it later.

Also, we got some insight on the Argent Arts--and confirmation we didn't miss the bonus.

Because the Argent Arts bonus is the Fourth Art.

Master the first three and you gain insight on the Fourth--which is probably Argent Genesis.

Oh, Do you remember the barbarian shaman that tried to put a death curse on the region? When I was fixing the shrines to the silver deer spirit it appeared and passed on the box. I can't believe you didn't notice.
 
Oh damn did I read that wrong, damn meizhen is such a hard person to please lately...I get why she is mad..but there's only so much we can do.

Well, you'd be mad to if your Best (only) Friend went and almost got herself spirited away.... or got her mind broken.

Which, based on what both Meizhen and our new spirit buddy said, is the most common thing to happen to humans that wander into the dreaming moons rave parties.
 
So, the changes to the gown were pretty nice, and I am super happy that the gown is self-improving, as we increase realms.

The old version
A many layered gown of water smooth black silk with white highlights and a dark blue mantle split down the center like a pair of wings and embroidered with white lotus petals. Made by an apprentice of the Duchess Cai, it's craftsmanship is near unparalleled. Armor 2. Reduces the cost of Darkness and Water arts by 2 to a minimum of one. Provides an additional four die to defense in low light and darkness, and two under normal light. Provides a two die bonus on intimidate and stealth tests. Self Repairs. Durability 8
-Wings in Shadow: At the cost of five qi per turn, provides flight at the user's speed, or negates any damage from a fall of one hundred meters or less

The New version
A many layered gown of water smooth black silk with white highlights and a dark blue mantle split down the center like a pair of wings and embroidered with white lotus petals. Made by an apprentice of the Duchess Cai, it's craftsmanship is near unparalleled. Armor 3. Reduces the cost of Darkness and Water arts by 3 to a minimum of one. Provides an additional four die to defense in low light and darkness, and two under normal light. Provides a four die bonus on intimidate and stealth tests. Self Repairs. Durability 10
-Wings in Shadow: At the cost of three qi per turn, provides flight at the user's speed, or negates any damage from a fall of one hundred meters or less
-Twilight Beauty: For one qi per turn, the user may reduce light levels to low within fifty meters

Changes appear to be: 1 more armor, 1 more qi reduction to darkness and water arts, 2 more intimidate and stealth dice, 2 more durability, and a new ability that for 1 qi per turn we can change the area around us for 50m into low light. Which works nicely with the defensive dice bonus.

All in all, some pretty sweet changes.
 
And even if it fails, we'll be in striking range of finishing it later.

...where is this? Sorry if I'm being dense, but I don't see this anywhere in the update.

Some discord talk going around, I'm just getting it down here so that there's no complaints when people start pushing those plans.

But yeah, Yrsillar popped it, someone asked about the Argent Arts, he told us that the fourth art is the Set Bonus, and that it appears when you master the first three.

Heaven and Earth = Completion you know.

Yrs's discussion in discord regarding the Argent arts.

Basically, without quoting anything as I am too lazy to do so, in order to get the 4th argent art, an individual must complete the other 3 argent arts. The bonus for completing the first three is access to the fourth.
