Chapter 106 Empress Winter Song And Tailoring Method
When the sun rose, Long Ming saw An Luan was still sleeping. Covering her body with the bedsheet, Long Ming got up and walked out.
Washing his face and adjusting his clothes, Long Ming walked out of the An Lauan's abode. He didn't go anywhere but straight to the scripture pavilion.
" Hoh? Look, Who is it the early morning?"
Long Ming smiled as he cupped his fist. " Good Morning, Elder Cai. How are you?"
" I am fine. Hehe, everyone in the sect talking about you." Elder Cai laughed. " Brat, You made our sect reach the second place with your new wine? Hurry up and give me some jars."
" Haha, Don't worry, Elder Cai. I have plenty to spare." Long Ming smiled as he gifted two jars of wine to Elder Cai.
" Such rich fragrance. This is no ordinary wine indeed." Elder Cai sealed the jars again as she nodded with satisfaction. " Alright, I don't see you much in Scripture Pavilion. Why did you come here in the early morning?"
" Do you have any collection of forging manuals along with some books about tailoring?"
" Tomes of forging treasures? There are some, but they are only low ranked books. You can find them in the right section of the first floor." Elder Cai replied.
" As for tailoring, Our sect has quite some books about it. Not to mention, You might find something in the section of Empress Winter Song."
" Empress Winter Song?" Long Ming nodded when he heard Elder Cai. He showed the token of True Disciple, given by Xia Yuqing.
" Well, I guess I can visit all the floors, right?"
Elder Cai nodded as he checked the insignia. " Indeed, You can go and visit all the floors. However, You can't touch the Imperial and Royal grade weapons and techniques without any permission, alright?"
" Hehe, I wonder."
Long Ming chuckled as he went ti the third floor directly. There were many disciples of Four Seasons Valley studying inside the library when they noticed Long Ming's presence.
"? Greetings, Senior Brother."
" Greetings, Senior Brother Long."
Long Ming grinned as he nodded at them. Getting greeted by flustered junior sisters, This is truly a bliss, ah.
Long Ming browsed through the books and found two scriptures regarding the tailoring and art of making treasured clothes. Using his 'Skill Learn' ability, Long Ming mastered them in one go.
With his superior comprehension and the Divine Tailor profession, he quickly digested the knowledge and moved on.
When he first got the Divine Tailor ability, his cultivation and manipulation of true qi were minuscule. Therefore, he couldn't do much with it.
However, now he reached the True Core Formation Realm and awakened his Nether Dragon Void Devouring Physique, he could freely use the true qi to practice any cultivation technique he wished.
When Long Ming reached the higher section of Scripture Pavilion, he saw a formation blocking his ray. When he put his palm on the curtain of light, it bounced back.
Long Ming showed his token as the curtain light vanished, allowing Long Ming to walk inside.
When Long Ming entered the section of Empress Winter Song, there were only a few things there.
" First was the Empress Winter Song's personally made technique, The Heavenly Snow Song Art. The scroll was tightly sealed with dense runic chains. However, he could feel an imposing aura and a freezing chill just by looking at it.
Then, there are some other techniques that were accessible to the disciples of Four Seasons Valley. The Winter Star Energy Art is one of the techniques that can be used with any sort of weapon. It was a good technique for the disciples to cultivate the winter branch techniques of Four Seasons Valley.
There are also some cultivation notes left behind by herm which didn't attract Long Ming. However, browsing through the miscellaneous items, he found an old book.
It was kept far away and wouldn't catch anyone's eyes. However, Since Long Ming was observing the entire library section with his Heavenly Revelation Eyes, he felt a faint imperial aura inside that book.
It was very faint and almost escaped from his eyes. Out of curiosity, Long Ming picked it up and flipped it.
He saw it was just filled with various childish scribbles and random drawings. There was no special feel to it, at least for those who couldn't see its profundity.
Long Ming felt his Desolate Immortal Aura covering the old book as the ink started to flow out from it.
The letters arranged themselves Long Ming realized that it was a diary.
' Damn, Diary of a Heavenly Emperor?' Long Ming became ecstatic when he saw that.
Long Ming flipped through it and realized why Elder Cai referred him here. Empress Winter Song was completely into tailoring and making various clothes. Not to mention, her clothes were the same as treasured armor, impervious to magical techniques and weapons.
Long Ming's eyes flashed when he saw the diary. Not only did she write in detail about her art and techniques to create special clothes, she also wrote many things about that time.
' Art of tailoring is just another branch of blacksmithing and rune inscription. In the end, everything depends on the usage of materials and the inscription of runes. Not to mention, the special clothes need much more caring than robust armor.'
Long Ming held the diary as his Heavenly Revelation Eyes flashed with a dreamy azure light, He used the Temporal Fate Simulation and tried to gauge the imperial aura residue on the diary.
*BANG!*
Suddenly, Long Ming felt a terrible shock in his soul as he almost coughed a mouthful of blood. He hastily circulated his Eternal True Spirit Art to calm down his soul.
' Heh, Even a remaining residue of a Heavenly Emperor is this powerful. I wonder what will happen if someone fully unleashes the might of an Imperial Weapon?'
However, it wasn't entirely fruitless. Long Ming at least saw quite a lot with his Heavenly Revelation Eyes before he closed it. Empress Winter Song was truly a peerless beauty. She was amicable, but still had a cold persona.
However, she secretly loved sewing and crafting clothes. Perhaps it was her hobby from childhood which she couldn't let go of. This diary was his personal diary which she kept with her even when she became a Heavenly Emperor.
Long Ming caressed it with his Desolate Immortal Aura as the imperial intent inside it seemed to be calm down and influenced by his power.
Although the power was faint, It was still tremendous for anyone with a low cultivation realm. Long Ming wondered if he could use this power as a weapon.
" But anyway, WIth this, I think I can start working on my plan." Long Ming picked up the diary and came down.
" Huh? There is a diary?"
Long Ming became confused when he saw Elder Cai asking in surprise. " You didn't know? I thought you referred to this when I asked you about tailoring techniques."
Elder Cai shook her head. " What I meant was the Art of Silk Robe Crafting, a book written by Empress Winter Song."
" But I didn't see that book?"
Elder Cai's expression stiffened as she slapped her thigh. " That damn, That old hag took that book again."
Long Ming instantly understood who Elder Cai was referring to. " Ah, Don't worry, Elder Cai. I was thinking about going to Elder Shi's abode. I will take that scroll from there."
" Alright."
Long Ming went to the abode of Elder Shi, with whom he had a good impression. Long Ming liked her because she helped Long Ming when he came to the sect.
Not to mention, she was also someone know knew a lot about tailoring and making clothes.
" Greetings, Elder Shi, Are you free right now?"
" Haha, You can say that. Come, come inside." Elder Shi gave an amicable smile.
After having a light talk, Long Ming finally spoke about his desire, making Elder Shi shocked.
" You… You really wish to learn the tailoring from me?"
" Why? Perhaps you don't want to teach me?" Long Ming gave a light laugh.
" No-Not that." Elder Shi shook her head. " This thing is… It's too…mundane. The art of crafting treasure clothes has been lose in Four Seasons Valley. It's been years I have tried to understand the texts of Empress Winter Song."
" Not to mention, For most disciples, This is not a preferable job." Elder Shi ridiculed. " Only those who don't have talent or resources come here to earn some money and spirit stones. So, it's like… a gathering place of weak and talentless?"
" I am just surprised how someone like you is interested in this." Elder Shi sighed. " If you wish, I will do my best to teach you."
" Just some pointers will suffice, Elder Shi." Long Ming spoke. "Besides, Do you have the scroll of Empress Winter Song?"
" Yes, I do. Wait a bit."
Elder Shi gave Long Ming the scroll and another handbook. " Here, I have compiled all of my learning in this book. Hehe, I thought if I ever received a disciple, I would it it to them. But it's alright."
Long Ming accepted it. " Thank you, Elder Shi. I will definitely not let you down."
" The last thing I want to ask, Elder Shi, Can I use your workshop?"
Elder Shi laughed as Long Ming gifted her a jar of wine. Sure, Go ahead and use as you wish."
Long Ming nodded as he took a formation token from Elder Shi and entered the workshop. He could see various materials, demon beast skins and furs, and other things piled there.
After that, he took the scroll of Empress Winter Song and Elder Shi and started to create a roadmap to use his Divine Tailor ability.
" Art of making treasured clothes is the same as forging battle armor. The treasured clothes should have basic functions as defense and boosting the power of wearer, but it must be also aesthetically pleasant."
" Meanwhile, Weapons and armor don't need to look pleasant. It could be bulky, ugly, and heavy. But as long as it served its function, it will be fine."
" The most important thing to make cloth is, 'Thread'. And, with this method, I can refine any material into the finest thread, imbue with colors of elements, and craft clothes."
