353 It's just a little bit of disrespect
In a quiet private room on the second floor of Ke Si Yun Lai, Lin Yan took out a few fake spiritual roots and handed them to Cheng Yanxi: "Daoyou, can you tell the origin of these fake spiritual roots?"
As one of the six major immortal sects, Jinsheng Sect is the most advanced sect in the entire Tiancheng spiritual world in terms of weapon cultivation. Cheng Yanxi not only has a high level of weapon refining skills, but also has a strong ability to evaluate magical weapons.
He picked up the fake spiritual root on the table and examined it carefully, then injected spiritual power into it to carefully explore its internal structure. He frowned and said, "Basically, the spiritual bones used here are from monster beasts, and the refining techniques are also similar to those in the Monster Realm."
"Are these things from the demon clan?" Lin Yan asked.
"I can't be sure. I can only say that the refining style is more in the demon realm, and I can't rule out the possibility that someone is counterfeiting." Cheng Yanxi said very seriously, and asked curiously, "Where did you get these things?"
In the Qiuye Palace, Cheng Yanxi's cowardly behavior proves that he has nothing to do with the Devourer. In the future, the imperial court will join hands with the six major immortal sects to seal off all academies, and will definitely notify Jinshengmen. Cheng Yanxi will know about this sooner or later, so Lin Yan told him about the academy.
Cheng Yanxi was shocked after hearing this: "That academy has so many fake spiritual roots? Although the fake spiritual roots currently on the market in Tiancheng Spiritual Realm are sold by Ke Siyunlai Trading Company, most of them are customized by our Jinsheng Sect. I can recognize the fake spiritual roots refined by our sect. They are definitely not the ones you have."
"Can humans imitate the weapon-refining style of the demon realm?" Lin Yan asked.
"Of course you can. Isn't this the strong point of your Tianshui Sect's Yanqi Peak?" Cheng Yanxi's face didn't look good when he mentioned this matter. He looked like he had been cheated.
Jiang Xiao asked in surprise: "What did Yanqi Peak forge?"
Cheng Yanxi curled his lips and said, "There are many. The most famous one is the Demon King Seal that caused the major demon kings in the demon domain to fight for it. It was made by the fifth elder of your Yanqi Peak."
It is rumored that in ancient times, there was a seal of the Demon King in the inheritance left behind by a powerful demon clan. The Demon King Seal has boundless power, and it can forcibly control the demons of the same level, helping the holder of the Demon King Seal to unify the demon realm.
Originally, this was just a vague legend, until one day the Demon King Seal appeared in the world, causing various demon kings to scramble for it.
Originally, the demon kings were skeptical about this, fearing that they were being deceived.
Unexpectedly, after verification from multiple parties, this thing seemed to be made by the demon clan, and it can control the demon clan of the same level of cultivation to a certain extent.
Now the demon kings were all furious, and everyone wanted to snatch the thing to help them unify the demon realm as soon as possible.
In the end, it was the Mayfly Clan Demon King who made a breakthrough during the battle and was promoted to the Tribulation Crossing Stage. He saw through the counterfeiting method of the Demon King Seal and destroyed it, which made the other demon kings give up.
But the turmoil did not stop there.
The various demon kings suspected that Jinshengmen was the one who had committed fraud, and they joined forces to go to Jinshengmen to demand an explanation.
The Jinsheng Sect felt very wronged and directly put the blame on the Tianshui Sect.
When both sides arrived at the Tianshui Sect, they ran into the Fifth Elder who was making a fortune from this incident in the gambling house, so they started fighting right away.
If the Fifth Elder had not run fast, his best chance now would be to become the spirit of a secret treasure of the Mayfly Demon King.
After listening to this story, Ren Yuan realized that he had overestimated the bottom line of Tianshui Sect: "How could you do such a thing?"
Lin Yan's expression remained unchanged: "Back then, the demon race and the human race had many conflicts, hated each other, and killed each other. After this incident, the two sides shook hands and made peace, opening a new chapter of peace. Our Tianshui Sect played a great role."
Ren Yuan and Cheng Yanxi: “…” You are so shameless that you can take credit for this.
"Fifth Elder is so powerful." Jiang Xiao, who didn't know how sinister people are, sighed sincerely and asked very experiencedly, "Was the fake spiritual root made by Fifth Elder or Senior Brother He this time?"
The Fifth Elder is now in the Demon Realm, and can easily obtain a large amount of raw materials for making pseudo spiritual roots by using local materials.
He Ziji, as the eldest disciple taught directly by the Fifth Elder, dared to forge the identity jade token of a disciple of Tianshui Sect for the sake of spirit stones. He is even better than his teacher and is also highly suspected.
Jiang Xin counted a few times with difficulty on her fingers: "Senior Brother He is still in prison and has not been released yet. The Fifth Elder is in the Demon Realm, and the communication signal is sometimes working and sometimes not, so we can't contact him for a while. But I don't think they did it."
"Why?" Cheng Yanxi felt that these two people were the most suspicious.
"Although the profit from pseudo spiritual roots is high, it is not that high for the two of them. Refining pseudo spiritual roots is time-consuming and laborious. Instead of spending that time on refining more high-level magical instruments, they can earn more spirit stones." Jiang Xin didn't know the price of high-level magical instruments, but knew that they were definitely more expensive than these pseudo spiritual roots.
The high price of pseudo-spiritual roots is high for ordinary cultivators, while the high-level magical instruments produced by Yanqi Peak are beyond the reach of even many cultivators from large sects.
As long as they can sell a high-level magic weapon, Yanqi Peak can earn a lot of spirit stones. The trading of magical instruments has always been a seller's market, so there is never any difficulty in selling them.
Cheng Yanxi was a little surprised that his colleagues from Tianshui Sect actually had such low standards.
He thought about it and picked up one of the fake spiritual roots: "Would it be convenient for me to take one of the fake spiritual roots back to Jinshengmen? I want to ask Master for advice."
Lin Yan naturally had no objection and generously gave him several pseudo spiritual roots, so that Jin Shengmen could do any experiment they wanted.
These pseudo spiritual roots are like bones as thick as a baby's forearm, with the five elements of spiritual energy wrapped around them, complementing each other.
The richer the spiritual energy, the better the quality.
If the spiritual energy is shallow, it means the quality is average.
Cheng Yanxi took two of each and agreed to inform Lin Yan and Tianshui Sect when he got any clues.
After seeing him off, Lin Yan used the company's communication array to contact the sect.
He wanted to contact Jiang Yichen or Qi Lanqing, but he didn't expect the voice of the great elder to be heard from the other side of the formation: "Where have you guys gone? Why haven't you come back yet?"
As they were talking, the figures of three great elders appeared on the communication array at the same time.
A great elder was standing in the front and talking to them, while two elders with bruised faces and noses were correcting documents and drawing pictures with resentment on their faces at the back. There was also a powerful confinement formation running under their seats.
Jiang Xin could tell at a glance that the one talking to them was the Great Elder's real body, and the other two who had been beaten were clones: "Wow, Master, you're back from jail?"
"Hey, Xinxin is here too?" The elder's tone softened significantly, and he felt angry as he recalled his own experience. "Those old guys from the Qiuye Dynasty are too unethical. They kept me locked up for so long, obviously to take revenge!"
Thinking of the great elder's heroic act of sending them to the eighteen levels of hell, Cheng Yanxi felt that being locked up for so long was probably the great elder's own fault.
But he didn't dare say it.
The Great Elder was still grumbling in dissatisfaction, "Xinxin, what's wrong with your father? Why did he leave the sect's chores to me as soon as he came back, and went straight to Sword Cliff for seclusion? If I wanted to handle these chores, I would have become the sect leader myself. Why did I have to bring my fellow disciples and sisters to beat him up?"
Lin Yan covered Jiang Xin's mouth as she tried to tell the truth, and asked tentatively, "Didn't the master tell you the reason?"
"No, I didn't even see him. I just heard him send me a message asking me to take over the position of Sect Master temporarily." The elder became more and more resentful as he spoke. "I don't know where the master and the second brother went. The third brother is hiding from me. The fourth brother slipped out and hasn't returned yet. The fifth and sixth brothers are in the demon realm and I can't contact them. Lan Qing is still outside investigating the World Tree. The 72 peaks and 36 oceans of Tianshui Sect are all on my shoulders. It's really exhausting for my old bones."
The first clone rolled his eyes in disdain: "We are the only ones doing the work, why are you so tired?"
The second clone responded: "You just drink tea and eat melon seeds and order us around. Are you tired?"
The elder put two silence talismans on it to block out the discordant voice, and continued to chat with Jiang Xin as if nothing had happened: "Xinxin, is your father about to break through the bottleneck?"
Jiang Xin shook her head, pried open Lin Yan's hand and said to the elder: "Daddy has no bottleneck."
It is a good thing that there is no bottleneck in cultivation, which means that there is still room for improvement.
The Great Elder was about to be happy for Jiang Yichen when he heard Jiang Xin say, "But it doesn't matter. After Master drove him to Jianya, Daddy will soon encounter the biggest bottleneck in his life."
The elder's eyelids twitched, fearing that the bad things he and Jiang Yichen had done together in the past had been discovered by Daoist Master Zhuyue: "Why did Master drive him to Jianya?"
Jiang Xin doesn’t know either.
Lin Yan said tactfully: "It's just a little bit of disrespect."
The Great Elder hissed and felt that it would be better for him not to ask.
The less he knew, the safer he was. He didn't want to be exiled to Jianya by his master to accompany Jiang Yichen.
