Chapter 295 Yin and Yang Fire
"Congratulations, Master!"
Li Hanqiu stepped forward to congratulate Zhang Yang. He had made great contributions in stabilizing the people's hearts in Guanshan Town in the past few months. Now that he was recalled for this matter, Zhang Yang planned to let him stay in the mountain gate to see if there was any way to restore his strength.
After all, Li Hanqiu was a powerful swordsman at the Jindan stage before. Even if he recovered 30% of his strength, he would still be much stronger than the combat swordsmen under Zhang Yang.
"Haha, congratulations! Lao Li, now that you're back, why not go to the Swordman Valley? I'm planning on restoring your strength."
Zhang Yang showed a bright smile. As for the look in Li Hanqiu's eyes when he looked at the Qiu Shui sword, he pretended not to see it, because he had written a promissory note in the first place.
"Master, my Heavenly Veins have been severely damaged and are difficult to repair, so there is no need to worry. However, my Heavenly Sword Sect now has five major hidden dangers, so Master, you must be on guard."
Li Hanqiu sighed. He was actually holding on to the idea of trying everything possible. He was also really angry at the top leaders of the Dameng Sword Sect. It would have been fine if they ignored the information he sent back, but they even wanted to expel him from the sect. Were they bullying his master who had just died in the battle at Heituyuan and had no background?
"Sword-wielding elder, please speak!"
Zhang Yang immediately became serious at this time, and even bowed, as if he was listening attentively. In the immortal cultivation sect, especially the sword cultivation sect, the sword-wielding elder holds an important position second only to the sect leader, so it is normal for him to do so.
Li Hanqiu was not polite at this time
"First, our sect is newly established, and coveters, conspirators, and invaders will probably come one after another in the future, so improving our strength is our top priority. However, from the head of our sect to the disciples, none of them has a decent sword. You must know that sword cultivators like us must put half of our strength into swords."
"Secondly, I don't mean to question the master's vision, but the 15 new disciples you have accepted are a bit too many. Why don't you make them outer disciples? Disciples are crucial to the development of a sect. Not only do they need to be extremely intelligent and loyal, but they also need to have the potential to break through the fifth level of the Heavenly Vein, which is the Golden Core level."
"Third, up to now, our Tianjian Sect still lacks a set of formation diagrams to protect the mountain gate. Although this matter can be temporarily suppressed by using Xuan-level weirdness, this matter must be resolved as soon as possible."
"Fourthly, Guanshan Town is a vassal of our Tianjian Sect and is the foundation for recruiting future disciples, so we must not ignore it. However, if we want to reassure the people, we still need a trade route. If the trade route is blocked, it will be a big taboo. Many materials for cultivation and daily needs will be lacking."
"Fifth, the Earth Spirit Hub of our Tianjian Sect covers an area of 800 miles. This 800 miles is our Tianjian Sect's territory. We must establish a set of mountain patrol measures as soon as possible to prevent wild ghosts and monsters from sneaking in and stealing our spiritual energy. But this also requires a patrol team that can fight and win. So I suggest that we start the furnace and refine the sword!"
Listening to Li Hanqiu's analysis and explanation, Zhang Yang could only smile bitterly. How could he not know all this, but he really was unable to cope with all the tasks. This was all thanks to the fact that those potential enemies were afraid of the Xuan-level monsters, so they did not come to cause trouble for the time being. However, as long as there was a chance, the Tianjian Sect would be in danger of extinction at any time.
"How to open the furnace and refine the sword?"
"This matter is very complicated, but as a sword cultivator, if you can't refine your own sword, you are not qualified to be called a sword cultivator."
Li Hanqiu said seriously, Zhang Yang nodded wildly on the side, he would not return the Qiu Shui sword anyway.
So Li Hanqiu could only sigh, "Originally, any normal immortal cultivation sect actually has a weapon refining hall that can provide the most basic magic weapons and sword weapons for free to its disciples, but our Tianjian Sect is in a special situation, so we can only do it ourselves."
"Just talking about starting the furnace, we need to hire two pyrotechnicians, or at least five pyrotechnic disciples. There is absolutely no room for ambiguity on this point, because without a pyrotechnician or pyrotechnic disciples to control the flames and grasp the changes in the temperature, then one of the most important steps in refining the weapon will be a joke."
"We probably can't hire a Taoist fireworker now, but there are firework disciples in Ye Ning City or Xuan Tie City. With the master's sword-controlling skills, we should be able to go back and forth within three days."
"Wait - I have a part-time job called Firework Taoist."
Zhang Yang suddenly called Li Hanqiu, his eyes full of joy.
"Master, are you joking?" Li Hanqiu was very confused.
"It's just playing with fire, I can do it." Zhang Yang said seriously this time.
"The Jindan Taoist can also release fireball technique, fire tongue technique, sea of fire technique, and even fire cloud technique. If the sect leader thinks that playing with fire is just these, then you can stop it." Li Hanqiu was very impolite. What the hell was going on?
"I am still a spiritual practitioner! I have mastered the spiritual practice of the soul realm!"
Zhang Yang said quickly.
This time Li Hanqiu was finally moved, because for a sword practitioner to practice spiritual cultivation at the same time was as incredible as hearing a rooster lay eggs.
"Master, don't joke around. If you practice spiritual cultivation, have you ever encountered a calamity caused by inner demons?"
"Inner Demon Tribulation? What is that? I have Soul Shock and a fourth-level Heart Sword. No matter what inner demon comes, it won't work. Oh, by the way, my Soul Vein Sword Pill has a sixth-level!"
It was necessary to reveal all the details like showing off a treasure. Since Li Hanqiu was invited to be the sword-wielding elder, some things could not be concealed, especially if he wanted to prove that he was a spiritual practitioner.
"Soul Vein, Sixth Level?"
Li Hanqiu was like a cat whose tail was stepped on. His voice broke and he looked at Zhang Yang like he was a monster.
"Master, how did you cultivate your soul vein to the sixth level?"
"I just practiced it casually. Maybe I have more talent for spiritual practice, hahaha!"
Zhang Yang chuckled. Of course he would never tell anyone about standard spiritual energy and the Dao rhyme of heaven and earth.
But ever since he became a spiritual practitioner, his Soul Vein Sword Pill has indeed been automatically upgraded. Really, I’d be a puppy if I lied to you.
Li Hanqiu was stunned for a full minute before he smiled bitterly and said, "I used to call myself a genius, but it turns out that the master is the real genius in cultivation. Then, may I ask, when you killed the demon commander Huang Gu, the master used the Golden Vein Sword Pill, right? It should be at least the third level?"
"Uh, yes."
"I admire you! I admire you!" Li Hanqiu bowed deeply to Zhang Yang, "The headmaster is so talented, he should establish his own sect. It's my vision that is too narrow."
"Since the head of the sect is a spiritual practitioner and has mastered the soul realm, he can indeed control the Four Directions Nine Netherworld Fire to refine swords on behalf of the Fire Taoist."
"What is the Four Directions Nine Nether Fire?" Zhang Yang's eyes widened. He had never heard of it before.
Li Hanqiu was probably desperate at this time, so he didn't care about Zhang Yang's ups and downs, and explained: "The fire used by the Fire Taoist to refine weapons is not just the fire of flames. If that were the case, then any cultivator who has mastered the fireball spell can call himself the Fire Taoist."
"And it will let the head of the sect know that a true magic weapon or sword weapon must distinguish between yin and yang, divide the five elements, participate in the creation, and know life and death. Therefore, simply refining it with raging fire is like a stupid cow, which can only hit its head against the south wall. Of course, most magic weapons and sword weapons in this world cannot meet this requirement. If it can meet the above requirements, it must be an immortal weapon."
"So, if the master has the ability of spiritual cultivation, he can probably distinguish between yin and yang and the five elements, but this requires a long period of practice. For the time being, just distinguish between yin and yang. The fire of yin and the fire of yang, the two kinds of fire that are refined must be ordinary swords."
"Then what is Yin Yang Fire?"
"The so-called Yang fire is the fire we see in daily life. This is not difficult, even I can do it. The difficult part is Yin fire. This fire is not hot, but blue, and extremely cold. It should be able to freeze a piece of ordinary iron and break it into cold crystals. That's enough."
"How do I obtain the Yin Fire?"
Zhang Yang asked again.
Li Hanqiu smiled bitterly, "So, we have to hire some pyrotechnic disciples, because they carry two gourds on their backs, one gourd contains Yang Fire, and the other contains Yin Fire. We have no way of getting Yin Fire, and even if we buy it, it would be less difficult than hiring some pyrotechnic disciples."
"gourd?"
Zhang Yang frowned, and after a while, a huge black gourd appeared in his hand like magic. This was what dropped when he killed a fourth-order demon cultivator when he was completing the Doomsday Village Building Order. No one knew what was in the demon cultivator's black gourd, but as soon as it was released, black clouds covered the sky. Well, and then he died, so Zhang Yang didn't know much.
"Magic weapon? Master, you also practice magic?"
Li Hanqiu was so frightened that he jumped three feet high, retreated more than ten feet away in one breath, and even picked up a stone from the ground. It was obvious that he was frightened.
"Demon cultivator? Uh, Elder Sword-wielding, don't get me wrong. I picked this up after killing a demon cultivator. I've never done much research on it." Zhang Yang was speechless. It seemed that all the cultivators in this world of immortal cultivation were very excited about the demons. But there was no need to be so. The sword cultivator's heart sword was specifically designed to kill demonic energy.
"Even a magic weapon won't work. The magic energy inside is contagious. Once it leaks out, all the people around will be devastated. Master, I suggest you destroy it."
"It's okay, don't forget that I have a quadruple heart sword." Zhang Yang didn't care, then slapped the gourd's mouth, and with a whoosh, a black gas rushed out and rushed directly towards Li Hanqiu.
"Invisible Heart Sword!"
Zhang Yang released the invisible heart sword at the same time. In his opinion, it only took a split second, but the result surprised him. The evil spirit that he could easily destroy in that doomsday world could not be destroyed here. He saw that the evil spirit grew stronger with the wind, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a demon head with an outline and an appearance similar to Li Hanqiu, making strange noises, while Li Hanqiu was already waiting to die.
"Confusing mind!"
"Golden sword destroys demons!"
Zhang Yang was also frightened and broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly used his ultimate move and finally killed the demon. As a result, a kill message appeared randomly.
"Successfully killed the mutant demon transformed by Li Hanqiu's thoughts."
"Successfully plundered a demon soul."
"Successfully obtained a ray of Abyssal Demon Fire."
"Friendly reminder 1: Demonic energy can undergo unknown changes in certain real worlds, which may be good or bad."
"Friendly reminder 2: Although the immortal cultivators in this real world have the means to exterminate demons, they are bound to have inner demons because they go against the will of heaven. Once these inner demons encounter demonic energy, they will immediately mutate. Therefore, all immortal cultivation sects must use monsters to suppress the mountain gates, because monsters can swallow demonic energy."
"Friendly reminder 3, this inner demon has no necessary connection with the abyss demon clan."
So that's what it is. Zhang Yang wiped a cold sweat, he was scared to death.
However, there is a lot of demonic energy in his black gourd. If he takes it out to fight the enemy in the future -
"Master, are you going to practice magic?"
Li Hanqiu had already picked up a stone and shouted sternly, as if Zhang Yang had really turned into a demon.
So Zhang Yang immediately dismissed the thought that had just flashed through his mind. He thought, just kidding. He didn't want to become a rat crossing the street.
"How is that possible? It was an accident. Elder Sword Master, please believe me, I am really a sword cultivator."
"In that case, thank you, Master, for helping me to eliminate my inner demons. However, I still have eight inner demons. Why don't you eliminate them all at once?" Li Hanqiu suddenly changed the subject.
Zhang Yang was stunned. Is this even possible?
