Elder Mao's suggestion made a lot of sense to Chen Yu.
A medium-quality artifact generally requires one to be in the Qi Transformation Realm to utilize it fully; an individual at the Organ Refining Stage could not sustain it even for a moment.
The Xuan Heavy Sword was Chen Yu's primary weapon, suitable for head-on confrontations. If he upgraded it to a medium-quality artifact, not only would the cost be greater, but the consumption would greatly increase, making it unsustainable in prolonged battles.
On the other hand,
refining the Dark Snake Sword into a medium-quality artifact, combined with the close combat advantages of body cultivation, could produce an immense burst of power in an instant!
Moreover, this poisonous sword was ideally suited for unexpected attacks and assassinations.
Next,
Chen Yu used five kilograms of Moon Spirit Ore to trade with Elder Mao for four kilograms of meteoric iron and three kilograms of brass crystal.
