Chapter 209 No Value, No Threat
"oh?"
Gen Shan Zhenren smiled slightly: "I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Zhang actually had this opportunity and actually possessed a pure demon pill, but..."
He said with a little regret: "Although the pure demon pill is rare and precious, it is still useless to me."
Pure demon pills have two uses. One is to form a pill and become a fake pill cultivator.
The other way is to swallow and refine it directly like Ning Daoran did when he formed the elixir for the second time. The essence in the pure demon elixir is extremely rich, which is a great tonic for Jindan stage cultivators and has the effect of improving their cultivation.
There was even a precedent where a mid-stage Jindan cultivator successfully broke through to the late stage by swallowing a pure demon pill.
However, it seems that Master Genshan is indeed not interested in this thing.
"It doesn't matter."
Ning Daoran said, "I have another thing, but I don't know if you are interested."
As he spoke, he lightly patted the storage bag, and immediately a piece of blood-red spiritual bone floated out. It was the third-level spiritual bone obtained from killing the white tree.
The essence and yin energy contained in this spiritual bone are extremely rich. It is a treasure for the devil and evil cultivators, and can be refined into a magic weapon that suits their destiny.
"Magic...Magic Embryo?"
This time, even Mo Shaoting, who had been silent the whole time, could not help but stare in amazement: "Fellow Daoist Zhang is really amazing. In addition to the pure demon pill, he actually has a magic weapon embryo."
"I got it by accident."
Ning Daoran said: "In order to obtain this embryo, I went through many dangers and almost died in a secret place and could never come back."
"You are too modest, my friend."
Mo Shaoting was slightly excited. Any magic weapon embryo is a treasure. The magic weapon refined by himself will be more compatible with himself, and the power it can exert as its natal magic weapon will naturally be greater.
It’s a pity that this embryo belongs to a ghost cultivator, and it conflicts with the Yunlei Zhenjue he is practicing.
However, Genshan Zhenren, who had been silent the whole time, kept his gaze on the piece of spiritual bone, and finally spoke: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, do you really want to exchange this magic weapon embryo for the dragon bird feather?"
"Exactly."
Ning Daoran said: "Magic weapon embryos are scarce, would you like to consider it?"
"The Dragon Bird True Feather is a third-grade, top-grade material. If it is refined into a magic weapon, the chance of it becoming a third-grade, top-grade magic weapon is extremely high. However, this spirit bone is just an embryo. If there is a slight flaw during the refining process, it will become a mid-grade or even low-grade magic weapon."
Gen Shan Zhenren said: "If you can add some more, I will consider exchanging this item with you."
"Fellow Daoist Genshan has said that."
Ning Daoran was certain that the other party needed spiritual bones, so he said, "Although the Dragon Bird True Feather is a third-grade top-grade material, it is not an embryo after all, and has no spirituality. If it is not refined well, it may become a low-grade one, or even a spiritual weapon. Both require risks. In my opinion, the two are of equal value, and there is no need to add anything."
On the side, Chen Ping'er covered her mouth and chuckled.
Ning Daoran's petty character remained the same as before, without any change.
"In that case..."
Gen Shan Zhenren pretended to hesitate for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "From what you said, the two treasures are of equal value, so let's just exchange them directly."
"good!"
The next moment, the two completed the exchange. Zhenren Genshan put away the spiritual bone, and Ning Daoran also put away a golden dragon bird feather.
The dragon bird is a fire demon bird. The strength of a dragon bird that has grown to the third stage is not much different from that of a human in the early stage of the Nascent Soul. Therefore, the value of this dragon bird feather is extremely high! At least in Ning Daoran's opinion, the value of the dragon bird feather is higher than the spirit bone.
As for why Master Genshan was willing to exchange.
It’s nothing, Master Genshan has fallen.
This person is most likely a demon cultivator, which is why he concealed his face and the aura of his skills when he appeared at the exchange meeting. There must be a reason for him to be so secretive.
Mo Shaoting and the other two foundation-building cultivators all had disappointment written all over their faces.
But there was no other way. He couldn't produce a treasure that would satisfy Master Genshan, so this was the only way.
An exchange will end quickly.
Ning Daoran did not leave immediately, but continued to stay in Fu Ping Fang, collecting some weapon refining books, finding out the refining method of the Dragon Bird Fan, as well as some related auxiliary materials.
In the private room.
Chen Ping'er gives Ning Daoran advice.
"The Dragon Bird True Feather is a must as the main feather. As for the secondary feathers, they can actually be replaced with the second-grade top-quality True Feathers. There is no need to look for third-grade True Feathers. In addition, the remaining auxiliary materials also have their own replacement materials. Fellow Daoist Ning does not have to collect these materials in the formula."
"Um."
Ning Daoran nodded: "However, as for the secondary feather... I really have one, and it is also of fire attribute."
He tapped the storage bag lightly, and immediately seven or eight fiery red feathers floated out. They were all his true feathers, and they were third-grade, mid-quality materials! "..."
Chen Ping'er opened her lips slightly, stunned.
Ning Daoran smiled slightly, "In the past, when I was exploring a secret realm, I opened a treasure chest and luckily obtained so many true feathers. I kept them but had no use for them. I was waiting for a third-level upper-quality main feather so that I could refine it and reach the third-level top-quality. Now I have finally waited for it."
"A good opportunity for a fellow Taoist..."
Chen Ping'er covered her mouth and chuckled.
In fact, if she thought about it more, she might be able to guess some clues.
He was able to produce so many real feathers in one go, and they were all from the same tier-3 mid-stage demon bird... and in the areas of Qingzhou, Kuizhou, and Ningzhou, it seemed that there was only that one tier-3 mid-stage demon bird left...
Fire Falcon, one of the Five Saints of the Five Sacred Mountains!
So, Ning Daoran reorganized the refining formula, and finally only one auxiliary material was missing, the shadowless wood.
Shadowless wood is an extremely rare refining material, and there are very few treasures that require shadowless wood for refining, but the Dragon Bird Fan requires it.
But there is no shadowless tree in Fupingfang.
"Fellow Daoist Ning, I do know some news about the Shadowless Wood. I heard that the leader of the Divine Weapon Sect, Mo Yunting, has hidden a piece of Shadowless Wood. Fellow Daoist is now a Golden Core. If you go to the Divine Weapon Sect, perhaps the leader Mo will be willing to give it up."
"OK."
Ning Daoran stood up and went to the Divine Weapon Sect.
…
Red Leaf Valley.
The autumn rain continues.
Ning Daoran removed his disguise and returned to his original appearance, wearing a green shirt and emitting a golden elixir aura. After informing the steward, he soon met the two brothers Mo Yunting and Mo Shaoting.
"Fellow Daoist Ning!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Mo Yunting was very enthusiastic and said with a smile: "Last time you came to visit, I was in seclusion, so I couldn't meet you. I hope you don't mind."
"What are you saying, Sect Master? We are all cultivators. Once we start cultivating, it is easy to forget the years. This is inevitable. Ning will naturally not hold a grudge against it."
"That's great."
Mo Yunting said: "Fellow Daoist, you came to my Divine Weapon Sect this time. Have you changed your mind and are finally willing to serve as a guest elder of my Divine Weapon Sect?"
"That's not the case."
Ning Daoran said, "I heard that Sect Master Mo has a piece of Shadowless Wood hidden away. Coincidentally, a treasure that I plan to refine in the next few years happens to require Shadowless Wood, so I took the liberty to come and visit, just to ask for a small piece of Shadowless Wood."
"oh?"
When Ning Daoran said that he was unwilling to serve as a guest elder, a hint of displeasure flashed across Mo Yunting's eyes.
For a great cultivator like Mo Yunting who was in the middle stage of the Golden Core and also a master craftsman, there was actually no need to be respectful to Ning Daoran who was in the early stage of the Golden Core. But the other party was so ungrateful.
"Fellow Daoist Ning."
Mo Yunting smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, this shadowless wood... I was planning to use it as a supplementary material for refining my own magic weapon, and the piece I originally collected was very small, so I can't give it to you, I hope you won't mind."
'This was rejected?'
Ning Daoran was speechless. It was obvious that the Mo brothers really did not take him, who was in the early stage of the Golden Core, seriously.
"No problem."
He slowly stood up and said, "In that case, I will take my leave."
Mo Yunting and his brothers did not try to keep him and let him go down the mountain.
…
In the living room.
Only after Ning Daoran turned into a beam of light and flew away did the two brothers finally speak.
"Has this person been living near Ou Yeping's sword-making shop?"
"Exactly."
Mo Shaoting said: "Brother, the people we sent to investigate learned that this person's early Jindan spirit beast is now learning the Wind and Thunder Hammer Technique from Ou Yeping."
"snort……"
Mo Yunting frowned, "This person is so ungrateful... That sword-making shop is nothing, it's just some leftovers from our Divine Weapon Sect. Even the Wind and Thunder Hammer Technique is a branch of the Divine Weapon Sect's Myriad Clouds and Thunder Hammer Technique. This person is really ridiculous."
"This person is staying in Fanshu City. He will probably leave soon. Moreover, the basic technique he practices is the Changqing Jue. He is destined to be not good at fighting..."
"Well, don't pay attention to him. This person has no value or threat to our Red Leaf Valley."
…
The matter of refining the Dragon Bird Fan was temporarily put on hold.
Ning Daoran sent out dozens of second-grade paper figures to the surrounding dozen states and counties to inquire about the news of the Shadowless Wood, hoping that he could refine this precious fan as soon as possible so that the Real Feather Fan could retire early.
Some things happened in the city during this period.
According to the information provided by Sang Ping'an, there have been vicious murders in the city recently, and many brothel women have been killed.
I also heard that these women have one thing in common, which is that they sell their art but not their bodies.
"What else?"
Ning Daoran frowned and asked, "Are there any other characteristics?"
He even suspected that it was Old Demon Ye who was reborn, otherwise who else could be so perverted.
Sang Ping'an frowned, "Also... a friend of mine who is a coroner said that these women were all virgins, and the murderer only tortured and killed them, but did not possess their bodies before or after their death."
It seems that the murderer is really a pervert.
However, if someone was killed in the city, and in a brothel, how could there be no witnesses? Would this case become an unsolved case? It is very strange. What are the officials doing? ...
"I'm going to Fu Ping Fang."
He stood up slowly, already having guessed about 70% of who the murderer was.
