Cultivation World 37: Equipment Refining Conference

In midsummer, the weapon refining conference began in full swing.

The cultivators from Cangyu City all went there to join in the fun.

All the employees of the Charles shop, at least for half a year, had learned the craft from Xie Yunsui. They all wanted to show off their skills and see how long they could last at the conference.

Seeing that these disciples were absent-minded, Xie Yunsui simply approved everyone to participate in the competition.

The store suddenly became empty.

Fortunately, there were fewer monks coming to place orders, so Xie Yunsui only stayed in the store for half a day in the morning to process orders and pick up goods. He closed the store at noon and walked slowly back to the courtyard.

When I first moved into the yard, it was empty. Now, there are several fruit trees planted there, and they are lush and green. There is a spiritual formation arranged underneath, so they can bear fruit all year round.

Ling Xiyuan picked two bunches of purple grapes from the trellis, put them in a bowl, and sat under the shade of the tree.

When Xie Yunsui came back, he was holding a roast chicken in his hand. It was made by a man in the old alley who had been making roast chicken for thirty years. It tasted especially good.

"Would you like to have roast chicken for lunch today?" Ling Xiyuan stared at him happily.

Xie Yunsui said, "It's freshly baked, and it smells delicious all the way."

Ling Xiyuan set out the dishes and chopsticks in the open pavilion: "We who live here don't act like immortal cultivators at all. We just indulge in our appetites."

"The purpose of cultivating immortality is to live longer. If you live longer, you can naturally do whatever you want."

Xie Yunsui took out other dishes from the space and placed them on the table one by one.

The formation in the courtyard keeps out mosquitoes, but you can still hear the chirping of cicadas.

From time to time, a breeze blows through the gauze curtains of the open pavilion, and the days pass leisurely and comfortable.

After having a good meal and tea, the two of them removed the table and chairs, put two lounge chairs in place, and rocked back and forth while looking at the green shade.

"It was only after being with you that I realized the sky was so blue." Ling Xiyuan suddenly said.

Xie Yunsui curled his lips: "Hmm?"

Ling Xiyuan smiled and said, "Before, I just focused on cultivation."

Ever since Xie Yunsui discovered that he could cheat by transferring energy from Xiao Wan to Xiao Xi, he no longer urged him to practice, and only focused on making money and improving himself.

Ling Xiyuan did not rely solely on Xie Yunsui. Usually in the morning when Xie Yunsui was refining magic tools or going to the store, he would practice on his own. His current cultivation level was visibly improving steadily.

In just half a year, he had advanced from the early stage of the Golden Core to the middle stage of the Golden Core.

With his qualifications, this speed was unimaginable before.

I'm afraid even if the Pavilion Master came, he would rub his eyes in disbelief.

Xie Yunsui said, "I thought you were annoyed that I didn't let you go to the weapon refining conference, so you could only sit here and watch the sky."

Ling Xiyuan laughed twice: "I don't know how to refine weapons, what's the point of going there?"

Xie Yunsui suddenly sat up: "Actually, as long as we don't come into contact with Xie Yan, it'll be fine. If you feel it's a pity, we can disguise ourselves and go over quietly."

Ling Xiyuan stared at him: "Are you worried about your disciples?"

Xie Yunsui laughed dryly.

Ling Xiyuan thought of his disciples, the friendship between Fu Wenming and Qi Yan that they had established in the Fentian Mountains. Even though their cultivation levels were not equal, they still had a good relationship. Qi Yan respected and obeyed Fu Wenming, his senior brother, and would ask him for advice if he didn't understand something in life.

But the disciples who came later from the Tianlang Immortal Sect were naturally not convinced. Although they had just joined the sect and started practicing, it took them two to three months at most, and half a month at the shortest, to cultivate the Qi into their bodies. Some of them had even embarked on the immortal path with the support of their families before entering the sect. Each of them had a higher cultivation level than Fu Wenming.

As the eldest senior brother, Fu Wenming had almost no one to listen to him when he spoke except Qi Yan.

Xie Yunsui pushed back the two people who had been looking for trouble with Fu Wenming. People who didn't focus on improving themselves and spent the whole day thinking about replacing someone else's position were really not suitable for the path of refining weapons. It was said that after returning to the sect, they were also picked out from the Weapon Peak by Ling Ye.

This trick of killing the chicken to scare the monkey was quite effective. The people who stayed behind didn't say anything, but it was not certain whether they were still angry or not.

This time at the Equipment Refining Conference, Xie Yunsui was unwilling to go in order to avoid Xie Yan, and only let Fu Wenming lead the team. On the surface, Fu Wenming was the one in charge, but in reality, if anything happened, Qi Yan, who had the highest cultivation level, had to take charge.

Xie Yunsui was not afraid of anything else, but he was a little worried that these people would get into trouble with Xie Yan if they were not careful.

A few days before the equipment refining conference was about to begin, Fu Wenming came to report to him.

"That distinguished guest came to the store today and sat quietly in the inner room for a long time, asking for nothing, and left on his own before closing."

Xie Yunsui knew that Xie Yan had decided to go to the weapon refining conference to find Ling Ye.

I don’t know if it was because the plot was too powerful and could not be changed, or if Xie Yan really just wanted to find Ling Ye to find out what happened that year. In any case, Xie Yan went.

According to the plot, Xie Yan also disguised himself.

After all, he didn't know how to refine weapons, and only had theoretical knowledge, so he suppressed his cultivation and participated in the Qi training period competition.

Most of the weapon cultivators in the Qi training stage are unable to complete a complete magic weapon. The first few levels are mostly theoretical knowledge such as identifying weapon refining materials and how to repair damaged magic weapons. Xie Yan will have no problem in the later stages, as long as he can wait until Ling Ye comes.

Among his disciples, only Qi Yan is currently participating in the foundation-building group, and the others are in the Qi training stage.

Don't look at Xie Yunsui's carefree attitude these days. What he's actually thinking is that he must not provoke the protagonist...

Fu Wenming was worried about why these new disciples of his master would provoke the cultivator named Yan Xia!

"This person has extensive theoretical knowledge and is indeed superior to you. If you are unconvinced, simply go find the competition's guiding disciple and report your confusion, rather than leaving the competition and trouble that person."

I just finished a material identification event, which was time-limited.

The materials looked similar in appearance and were no different upon closer inspection, but they were a hundred years apart in age. Even Fu Wenming hesitated for more than half an hour before deciding which ones were usable.

This material is rare and not used much, so Xie Yunsui only introduced it to them once.

Maybe I didn't remember them all. I guessed two correctly, but I couldn't explain why I chose them. I chose some wrongly, and some were directly out of time, so I lost the game.

When he looked back, he found that an unknown little weapon cultivator had chosen the correct one within a few minutes of entering the arena and won the first place. He immediately felt uncomfortable.

After the incident, Fu Wenming looked for them but couldn't find them. After searching for a while, he discovered that they were blocking people and interrogating him about his family tradition.

The man was forced into a corner, but he didn't say a word and just endured it.

Fu Wenming couldn't stand it, so he came over to rescue him and took his people back.

Qi Yan's foundation-building group was about to start a fire. Once the fire started, they would not be able to return for a whole day and would have no one to rely on. Fu Wenming tried his best to persuade them, but these disciples were perfunctory in their attitude.

Fu Wenming had no choice but to speak sternly: "If you still don't repent, I will inform Master."

These people were still a little afraid of Xie Yunsui. Knowing that Fu Wenming was very favored, two of them immediately said with a smile, "Brother, why bother to complain? We can just not go to that person."

"It's not that I have to look for him, but for some reason, I just don't like him."

"Other people have beaten us before, but it's just him. He looks like he deserves a beating."

Fu Wenming: “…”

Cold face.

Do you think I believe your lies?

Before he started practicing Taoism, he always thought that all cultivators had splendid appearances. But after coming into contact with so many people, he realized that cultivators were also human beings, with all the seven emotions and six desires, love, hate, anger, and ignorance, just like ordinary people.

He is even more arrogant and likes to bully others by taking advantage of his power.

His fellow junior brothers always make sinister remarks about villains.

They say others deserve a beating, but it is obvious that they deserve a beating more.

Fu Wenming was very worried because it was difficult to lead the team.

As expected, in the world of cultivating immortals, strength is the foundation of everything.

Yan Xia, also known as Xie Yan, had been to Xie Yunsui's shop and knew those people, so naturally he didn't take their provocations seriously.

However, when she received the generous gift from Fu Wenming as an apology a day later, she felt much better about him.

Not all of Xie Yunsui's disciples are unreasonable.

-

On the first day Xie Yunsui quietly brought Ling Xiyuan to the weapon refining conference, they were discovered by Ling Ye.

Xie Yunsui looked at Ling Ye, who was also in disguise, and was speechless for a moment: "You didn't say you'd come so early."

The weapon refining conference is a grand event that will last for more than a month. Ling Ye only agreed to come for the last three days.

Ling Ye glared at Xie Yunsui: "You didn't tell me beforehand that he would come to this weapon refining conference!"

The "he" he was referring to was naturally Xie Yan.

In the plot line, Ling Ye didn't know that Xie Yan was still alive, so he naturally didn't care about the weapon refining conference and only came during the last few days.

Now that he knew Xie Yan was alive, and that Tao Zhuo, who was in charge of this conference, said that there was a "genius" with rich theoretical knowledge in the Qi training group, he would of course have wrong ideas, so he came here early on purpose.

This was amazing, it was actually Xie Yan.

With Ling Ye's ability, it was easy for him to see through Xie Yan's disguise.

Besides, Xie Yan was determined to lure Ling Ye, leaving many loopholes in the Xie family. In Ling Ye's eyes, it was like putting a label on this person saying "I am a descendant of Xie Yuan".

Ling Ye had been warned by Xie Yunsui not to get too close to Xie Yan, so he was secretly keeping an eye on him.

Then he discovered that Xie Yunsui and his wife were also secretly staring at Xie Yan.

"When did you come?"

"just."

Ling Ye’s face was full of “I don’t believe it”.

Xie Yunsui pulled Xiaoxi out to shield him from the attack at the right moment: "My Taoist companion just came out of retreat, and I have been guarding him the whole time. I only had time now, so I came to check on him out of concern, and that's when I discovered Xie Yan was here."

Ling Xiyuan smiled perfectly and greeted him: "Greetings, Your Excellency."

Ling Ye was just saying this out of anger, but he still had to save face in front of outsiders, so he let Xie Yunsui go.

He had just finished watching Xie Yan compete in identifying and repairing damaged magical instruments, and sighed, "There's not a trace of spiritual energy between his eyebrows."

Xie Yunsui was amused: "That's a good point, isn't it? The judges nodded repeatedly."

Ling Ye: "Didn't you see him memorizing the whole time? He could tell. Maybe that old fellow Xie Yuan had repaired something similar in front of him."

Xie Yunsui laughed.

It was true, the protagonist's halo, it was just a coincidence that he drew the magic weapon repair that his father had demonstrated when he was a child. At that time, Xie Yuan did not give up, thinking that as long as he had enough skills, Xie Yan would be able to take over his job.

Facts speak louder than words. Although Xie Yanguang could recite it, he still had no idea how to do it.

Ling Ye watched the whole process and finally gave up the idea of ​​accepting Xie Yan as his disciple.

"Come on, come on, since you're here, I'll test your skills."

Ling Ye couldn't bear it any longer and really wanted to see Xie Yunsui's weapon refining skills to calm his mood.

Xie Yunsui: "..."

I shouldn't have come here.
