Chapter 276: Bloody evil gourd (1)
Chapter 274
Su qingluan was a member of the hall of warrior, and she had come here to apply for withdrawal.
The sect’s Hall wasn’t something that one could never leave after joining it for a day.
In fact, every time a cultivator broke through a major realm, they could choose to stay or leave.
The sect wouldn’t force everyone to stay, nor would they bind the cultivators to the hall.
However, there were some halls that one would not leave after joining.
For example, an Alchemist would join the alchemy Hall, and a weapon refinement master would join the weapon refinement Hall.
They definitely wouldn’t quit, but warrior Hall was different.
After joining the hall of warrior, cultivators could directly receive missions from the hall of warrior.
These missions were all selected by warrior Hall, and they could only be completed by fighting.
For example, there were also missions from the hundred Demons catacombs here. Most of them were to hunt specific demons.
Back then, su qingluan had received a hunting mission, which had earned her enough merit points to return to the hidden sect.
It was Chen jingzhai’s idea for her to leave the hall of warrior.
The missions from the hall of warrior were much more dangerous than the missions from the other halls.
Most importantly, su qingluan was already a perfected Lord. If she still went out often in the warrior society, Chen jingzhai didn’t want to see that, and su qingluan didn’t need to do that.
After all, when his Market City opened, there would be an endless supply of resources.
Even now, Chen jingzhai could still accumulate resources by making treasure pills and Dharma Treasures. He just didn’t do it. If he did, he would definitely become famous.
It wasn’t that Chen jingzhai was a male chauvinist, but that su qingyue needed to create a new technique like him.
The creation of a technique did not require one to fight, but one’s own understanding of one’s own Dao and the understanding of the technique.
This required a lot of time and accumulation, so fighting was meaningless.
Su qingluan’s request was accepted without a hitch, and the information on her token was changed.
From now on, she would only be the matriarch of the full moon Cave and Chen jingzhai’s Dao partner.
In the future, she might join other halls, but at least for now, she didn’t have such concerns.
After leaving the fifth battle peak, Chen jingzhai brought her to visit the other heaven’s favorites. They first went to Zhao Hao’s cave, then to Chen Lei Shixiong.
Li Yueli and Pei Dong ‘er were female cultivators, so Chen jingzhai didn’t go. He asked su qingluan to send some gifts over. They were all third-grade beauty pills that he had refined, and there were quite a number of them. They were suitable as gifts.
“We can’t bring too many people on this trip to the hundred Demons catacombs.”
“Ye Changyi is still in closed-door cultivation, so I won’t bring him along this time.”
“Each of us will only need to bring two or three companions.”
“Our destination this time is to explore the Blood River on the fifth level of the catacombs.”
Chen Lei beckoned Chen jingzhai and Zhao Hao to sit down in the cave and explained.
There was no mandatory mission for everyone. As heaven’s favorites, they had 50 years of free time.
This trip to the hundred demon catacombs was a mission assigned by the mountain range.
In fact, even if it was born according to the wishes of the heaven’s favorites, the mountain ranges wouldn’t have any objections.
It was the same for Chen jingzhai. He did not even need to look for senior brother floating cloud. He just had to report to the Peak’s steward’s Hall and he could treat this trip to the hundred Demons catacombs as a mission assigned to the peak.
Ordinary cultivators naturally couldn ‘t, but they were heaven’s favorites!
The mission assigned by the mountain range was to train the mountain range disciples and would not send them to their deaths.
The prodigies were all disciples that the mountain ranges valued and would even allocate resources to nurture them.
Of course, there was a discussion on the assignment of tasks. This was also an invisible privilege of the heaven’s pride experts.
“In the fifth level of the catacombs, the Blood River is a unique existence,” Zhao Hao said to Chen jingzhai.”No one knows how it appeared, but after it appeared, the strength of the demons nearby increased greatly. Moreover, many more demons crawled out of the Blood River, so the sect issued an exploration mission.”
Currently, it was known that there were seven levels in the catacombs. Only the fifth level had a Blood River flowing through it.
He didn’t know where he came from or where he went. Even a soul formation true venerate couldn’t figure it out.
This involved the mysteries of the catacombs world’s space. Ordinary cultivators would not be able to understand it.
“I heard that the fifth level of the catacombs is a place only nascent souls can go to?” Chen jingzhai raised his brows.”Isn’t it too risky for us to continue like this?”
“Of course not.” Chen Lei laughed.”We’ll start from the first level. Let’s go all out and kill the magical beasts. We’ll get used to the environment in the catacombs and go down step by step.”
“Dong ‘er still needs some time to come out of seclusion.” Zhao Hao looked at Chen jingzhai,”can I ask Junior Brother Chen to help me refine some Dharma artifacts that can store the blood essence of demons?” I can buy it. ”
“No problem,” Chen jingzhai nodded,”I’ll get it ready. You don’t have to buy it, just treat it as a gift for you!” This is nothing to Jing Zhai. ”
“Junior Brother jingzhai is an expert in both alchemy and weapon making. He also has the inheritance of an array master and is a puppeteer. He is very versatile.” Senior brother Chen Lei smiled.”In the future, we have to be closer.”
“That’s how it is. ” Chen jingzhai smiled and nodded.
Zhao Hao also revealed a simple and honest smile. Although he came from the eleventh branch, he didn’t know how to refine pills, just like li Yueli who came from the twelfth branch and didn’t know how to refine weapons.
Even if he had a special physique, he couldn’t master everything. Whether it was making elixirs or forging weapons, he needed time to figure it out. Zhao Hao felt that he didn’t have enough time to cultivate, and he admired Chen jingzhai.
After they agreed on a time, Chen jingzhai and su qingluan returned to the Moonview cave abode.
In the next few months, Chen jingzhai made a batch of iron gourds made of starfish black iron. There were also arrays and restrictions inside to purify the blood essence of demons, all of which were intermediate third grade magical treasures.
Ever since he had cultivated the Polar Star refinement Dao art, it was not difficult for him to refine talismans. Other than high grade talismans that needed to be carefully sculpted, he could already mass-produce middle to lower third grade talismans.
This time, he didn’t just forge the iron Calabash, he also used the materials at hand to forge many different types of talismans. With the help of the Natal true fire and the star Lotus, the process couldn’t have been smoother.
Su qingluan picked a few and took away all that she had her eyes on. Chen jingzhai picked out a few of the remaining ones and gave them to the ladies of the Liu family to make sure that each of them had a suitable Dharma Treasure.
As his maidservants, they still had to show some face. Moreover, they were all foundation building cultivators, so they would be useful in the future. They might even be able to refine magic treasures in the future!
After giving out the transcendent artifacts and making arrangements for the cave abode and the moon Pavilion, Chen jingzhai brought su qingluan to the iron sword Pavilion to meet up with Zeng wangbei. The immortal Ji Shuanghua was also there.
This time, Chen jingzhai only brought Zeng wangbei, while su qingyue brought Ji Shuanghua. Unlike perfected Lu Tao, who had a wide social network, Ji Shuanghua had a cold personality, which suited su qingyue’s personality.
In addition, perfected Lu Tao knew how to curry favor and had already accepted a mission. Perfected Ji Shuanghua didn’t have any close friends, so she naturally came over when su qingluan called for her.
He gave both of them a black iron gourd, and silver Clouds appeared beneath Chen jingzhai and su qingyue’s feet. Chen jingzhai took Zeng wangbei and su qingyue took Ji Shuanghua and flew away from the mountain Gate.
“Little uncle-master, is this the magic weapon you refined?” Zeng wangbei asked as he played with the black iron gourd.
“En!” Chen jingzhai nodded and smiled.”I got the materials from Donghai!”
“He’s only just broken through to the Golden elixir realm and he can already refine Dharma Treasures!” Zeng wangbei sighed with emotion.”Indeed, you can’t be compared to a heaven’s pride expert. Otherwise, your mental state would collapse!”
“It’s not that serious,” Chen jingzhai said with a smile.
“Why not?” Zeng wangbei said,”in the entire sect, how many people can directly refine middle-grade Dharma Treasures after breaking through to the Golden elixir realm? Which one of them hasn’t been accumulated for decades?”
Alchemy and weapon refinement were both very difficult. Even if there were elders or Masters to guide them step by step, it was not possible to improve quickly. The key was still to have the ability to comprehend. This was applicable to all skills.
Chen jingzhai used to take a shortcut in alchemy. Later on, he slowly touched and understood by analogy with his Foundation. Now that he had cultivated the innate seamless Dao body, his perception and aptitude were extraordinary, and his skills improved rapidly.
He didn’t have a deep understanding of it because he had always been like this. Su qingluan didn’t have much of an idea of these things. In the past, she had only been cultivating and doing missions, so she hadn’t really thought much about these skills.
Zeng wangbei was different. He was an array master and a genius at his peak. He had come to the allheaven celestial gate before Chen jingzhai and had even stayed in the outer sect. After more contact, he naturally knew more about the sect.
Even if Chen jingzhai’s mid-grade black iron Calabash was a standard magic weapon, it was not something that outer sect disciples could make. Even in the 12th Meridian, most magic weapons were made by true Lords.
In addition to the difficulty of refining and the inability of a Jindan weapon forging master, there were also various reasons such as the restriction of materials. In short, at this time, Zeng wangbei’s worship and admiration for his youngest uncle deepened.
If he didn’t hug such a good thigh, wouldn’t he be blind?
He had been accepted by a soul formation true venerate as a disciple, but he was only an in-name disciple.
In the future, he would have to rely on little uncle-master if he wanted more high-quality array discs and array flags!
“This is too precious!” When Ji Shuanghua heard Zeng wangbei’s words, she hesitated.
“Take it!” “This is nothing to him,” su qingluan said indifferently.”If he feels apologetic, he can just advance and retreat with the full moon Cave in the future.”
“Alright!” Ji Shuanghua agreed without hesitation and refined the black iron gourd on the spot.
Although she had a master in the hidden sect, she was not outstanding in the allheaven immortal sect.
Ji Shuanghua didn’t understand why Su qingluan valued her so much, but she didn’t want to let go of this opportunity.
A middle-grade magic weapon was nothing to her. The key was how to gain a firm foothold in the allheaven immortal gate. The full moon Cave was a good choice, but it seemed to be the only choice for her now.
After successfully refining the black metal gourd, Ji Shuanghua was pleasantly surprised. Previously, when Chen jingzhai said that it was a magic treasure used to contain the blood essence of demons, she had subconsciously thought that it was just a container.
He didn’t expect the black iron gourd to be so exquisite. There were two spaces inside, one for purification and the other for accumulation of evil blood. He could also use evil blood-related methods through restrictions.
Its attacks included blood-killing demonic light, blood-killing poisonous mist, and blood-killing Yin Thunder.
Its defense was covered by a Red Cloud.
There was the blood escape technique for escaping.
Even though it was only a middle-grade magic weapon, it was still considered a high-quality one.
In terms of the myriad of functions, none of the items on Ji Shuanghua could compare to them.
This was just something that youngest uncle had casually refined. It was said that there was still a large number of them. Then, what would the truly high-quality magic weapons be like to youngest uncle? Ji Shuanghua was filled with anticipation.
However, this anticipation did not last long, because she saw Chen jingzhai take out a ship. It was different from the ship she saw outside The Sea of Trees. The shape of this ship had changed greatly.
It looked like a gold ingot, and it was white.
The strangest thing was that there was no sail, not even a long pillar, and there was no wooden structure. Even the puppet boatman had disappeared.
“Let’s go!”
Chen jingzhai’s voice came into their ears, and then everyone boarded the strange ship.
