Chapter 39 Five-Man Team
Three days later.
"Keng~~~"
With Wen Zichen's hammer strike, the already complete Big Green Dragon seemed to be half awakened and actually made a buzzing sound.
"It's done!"
Wen Zichen looked tired, but he was secretly happy in his heart.
It is true that he was exhausted after three days, but the profit from this business was at least close to one hundred spirit stones. If he could have such business every day, he would be more than happy.
"Fellow Daoist, it's done."
Wen Zichen picked up the Great Azure Dragon with great effort and said, "The final result even exceeded my expectations, it is a second-level mid-grade magical weapon.
It weighs two hundred and eighty kilograms, and is inlaid with four micro-weight-increasing formations. After injecting mana, its weight can reach two thousand kilograms!"
"real?"
Ning Daoran took over the Big Green Dragon and suddenly felt a slight heaviness in his hand. After injecting magic power into it, he felt it was extremely handy. It was particularly powerful to swing this two thousand jin Big Green Dragon. It was a real weapon for sneak attacks and killing!
"Are you satisfied, Brother Ning?"
Wen Zichen put his hands on his hips. Not to mention the other person, he himself was quite satisfied with this work.
Every time he pounded the hammer, he felt a sense of spiritual harmony. The hammering skills that had been stagnant for many years seemed to have been slightly sublimated because of this work. For a weapon refiner, this opportunity is very rare.
“Very satisfied.”
Ning Daoran gently waved the Big Green Dragon, making a buzzing sound.
"father!"
At this moment, a woman came down from upstairs and said, "We have to eat dinner today no matter what."
As she spoke, she suddenly saw Ning Daoran and her pretty face immediately blushed.
Ning Daoran also looked over. This girl was not extremely stunningly beautiful, and her looks certainly could not be compared with Senior Sister Jiang Yu and Junior Sister Han Bing, but she had a kind of gentleness that made people feel favorable.
Such a woman is gentle as water, and few men would dislike her.
"Ahem, my little girl Wenru."
Wen Zichen smiled and said, "Ru'er, come down and meet the customer. This is Fellow Daoist Ning Daoran from the Chaos Sect."
"Hello, fellow Taoist."
Wen Ru walked down the stairs, bowed, and had a sweet smile on her lips.
Ning Daoran could quickly sense the other party’s cultivation level. At the seventh level of Qi Refining, this woman’s cultivation level was actually higher than her father’s.
Moreover, Wen Ru is still young. At this rate of cultivation progress, she has a chance to build a foundation.
"Fellow Daoist Ning."
Wen Zichen smiled and said, "My daughter has been practicing the art of refining with me since she was young. She is good at both refining and array formations. She is extremely talented. If nothing unexpected happens, she will definitely take over the refinery from me in the future."
The reason why he introduced Wen Ru and Ning Daoran to each other was simply because he saw that Ning Daoran had a good future and was generous.
It would be beneficial for Wen Ru to get to know such a customer earlier when she manages the refinery in the future.
Ning Daoran tapped the storage bag lightly and put the big blue dragon into it. He then clasped his fists and said, "I have been away from the mountain for a few days. I have to go back to take care of the spiritual farm. Master Wen, Miss Wen, I will take my leave first! Master Wen, your daughter is right. You have been forging the Blue Dragon Spear for several days in a row. You should eat and rest well."
Wen Ru couldn't help but laugh: "Dad, you see that Fellow Daoist Ning is much more sensible than you."
Wen Zichen smiled bitterly, then respectfully saw Ning Daoran off.
…
No. 77 Lingtian Courtyard.
Ning Daoran held the Big Green Dragon in his hand and practiced the perfect-level Silver Dragon Spear Technique. The tip of the spear was wrapped with pear blossoms. His spear technique was quite smooth and fluent, like flowing water.
The big stupid deer let out a roar, indicating that the performance was good.
Ning Daoran was also very satisfied. At this time, the boss's black spear could be thrown away. The big blue dragon had already won by a large margin!
"Uncle!"
At this moment, a figure rushed into the small cloud and mist formation. It was Chen Weimo.
"What's wrong?"
Ning Daoran sat upright and said with a smile, "Your cultivation has been growing very slowly recently, Chen Weimo. Can you master the Changqing Jue?"
"I……"
Chen Weimo was like a little girl who had made a mistake: "Uncle, I tried my best, but it's really hard..."
"Disaster?"
Ning Daoran looked at the string of spirit fish on the willow branch in her hand and said helplessly, "Why don't you find fishing difficult?"
Chen Weimo stammered and looked to the big stupid deer for help.
The big stupid deer stood up with a roar, picked up the spirit fish from Chen Weimo's hand, and went to the kitchen to prepare braised fish.
"snort……"
Ning Daoran said calmly: "My mother-in-law asked me to supervise you before she left. How can you be lazy in your cultivation? Now that I am teaching you the Evergreen Technique, you should practice diligently and cherish this opportunity.
You should practice Changqing Jue for two cycles first, and then you can eat."
"Yes, uncle..."
The little girl pursed her lips, sat cross-legged on the bamboo mat in the courtyard, and began to practice the Changqing Jue.
After counting the breaths.
She opened one eye: "Uncle, what level of Changqing Jue are you at?"
Ning Daoran gently raised his hand, and a wisp of vigorous vitality surged: "Third floor, remember to keep it secret."
“Amazing!”
Chen Weimo opened his eyes wide: "Uncle, how long did it take you to reach the first level?"
"Less than half a year."
Ning Daoran said without blushing or beating his heart.
Chen Weimo was shocked and became even more diligent.
…
A few days later.
Ning Daoran decided to upgrade the Small Cloud Mist Formation to a medium level, adding illusion and maze effects to the formation.
Otherwise, anyone without any skills could force their way in, and it would be useless without any defensive effect.
According to the array inheritance notes left by my mother-in-law, upgrading a low-grade small cloud mist array to a medium-grade one requires two relatively rare materials, one called purple copper and the other called Liuhe Stone.
It sounds like purple copper is a material for refining equipment, so you can ask about it at the Wen family's refinery.
Take the big stupid deer and go down the mountain again!
I went to Qingxiefang first and took a look around, but there was no copper or Liuhe stone for sale.
Then go to the Wen family refinery.
"Fellow Daoist Ning, we meet again?"
Wen Zichen walked out from the back hall with a smile on his face: "What do you want to refine this time?"
"I'm not refining anything, I just want to ask the owner if he has the two materials, copper and Liuhe stone?"
"There is copper, though."
Wen Zichen said: "I collected more than a pound of copper in my early years, and now I still have more than half a pound left. As for the Liuhe Stone, I have never heard of it."
"oh……"
Ning Daoran was a little disappointed.
"Liuhe Stone, I do know where it is."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
At this time, a voice came from the back hall.
An old man with white hair and white beard came out, his body filled with the strong aura of the ninth level of Qi Refining, and said with a smile, "If you want the Liuhe Stone, you can cooperate with me."
Ning Daoran was slightly stunned.
Wen Zichen smiled and said hurriedly, "Fellow Daoist Ning, let me introduce you. This is Master Zi Guang, a friend of mine for many years. He is at the ninth level of Qi Refining. Although he is a casual cultivator, he has a wide network of contacts in Shanyang County and is a very humble person."
"Hello, Fellow Daoist Zi Guang." Ning Daoran nodded with a smile.
"Hello, Brother Ning."
Master Zi Guang performed a Taoist ritual.
"I wonder what exactly happened to the Liuhe Stone that Daoist Fellow Zi Guang mentioned?"
"Fellow Daoist, please look at this."
Master Zi Guang slapped his storage bag, and a fingertip-sized strange stone floated out. It was the Liuhe Stone.
Unfortunately, it is too small to support the refining of a formation plate.
"What a coincidence."
Master Zi Guang said: "Just a few months ago, I discovered an ancient cultivator's cave. The owner of the cave was probably a late foundation building cultivator. There were multiple restrictions outside the cave, and I could not break through it with my own strength.
Therefore, I have been looking for companions these days, hoping that we can work together to break into the cave and share the treasures.
To be honest with you, there are several Liuhe stones outside this cave, and you can see them through the restriction. This small piece was dug out by me outside."
Ning Daoran nodded: "So... I wonder if I can help?"
"It was also God's arrangement that allowed me to meet Fellow Daoist Ning at Fellow Daoist Wen's residence today."
Master Zi Guang chuckled and said, "If I am not mistaken, Ning Daoran is practicing the Chaos Sect's Changqing Jue, is that right or not?"
"Exactly."
"What a coincidence. The restriction in the ancient monk's cave is a five-element restriction, which requires magic power of five attributes at the same time to break.
I have already made an appointment with several fellow cultivators. Now I have gathered the magic powers of the four attributes of gold, water, fire and earth. If you are willing, your magic power of the Changqing Jue wood attribute will be the last one, and there will be hope of breaking the restriction of this cave."
Ning Daoran fell into deep thought.
He has always never thought about exploring secret realms or ancient caves. The risks are too high. There is no need to take risks when he can live forever by just farming.
However, this was a team at the Qi Refining stage. Even though he was only at the eighth level, with his unique skills of returning to nature and various top-grade magical instruments, he would be suspected of being a traitor if he joined.
Besides, he really needed the Liuhe Stone to upgrade the small cloud and mist formation. By then, he would be a true first-class intermediate-grade formation master!
Moreover, he was also curious whether Master Zi Guang had any other plans.
It's not a big deal to practice at Qiongbi Peak all day. You still have to experience the ups and downs of the martial arts world. This trip can be regarded as an experience! More importantly, he has the perfect level of Riding the Wind and Freely Jue and various escape methods. If he can't beat him, can he run away? ...
Just as Ning Daoran was hesitating, Wen Zichen smiled slightly and spoke.
"I know what Fellow Daoist Ning is worried about, but Fellow Daoist Zi Guang and I have known each other for more than 20 years. If Fellow Daoist Ning trusts me, I can guarantee that I believe in Fellow Daoist Zi Guang's character and that there will be no accidents on this trip."
"In that case."
Ning Daoran said in a deep voice: "Then I will also participate. I hope that Daoist Fellow Zi Guang will remember his promise. After the ban is opened, I only want the Liuhe Stone. I am not interested in other treasures. I am only responsible for providing a ray of Changqing Jue wood attribute spiritual power. After opening the ban and taking the Liuhe Stone, I will leave."
"Fellow Daoist, please be careful..."
Master Zi Guang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "That's it. Daoist friend, you just need to help us open the restriction. All the Liuhe stones will belong to you. As for exploring the cave, the remaining four of us are enough."
"good."
"In that case, let's meet here at noon tomorrow and then set off together to the ancient monk's cave, okay?"
"Can."
…
The next day, it was almost noon.
Ning Daoran placed a pile of talismans in the storage bag in order, packed the Qinglong Spear, carried the Qiu Shui Sword behind him, looked at the big stupid deer, and grinned.
"Come on, old deer. I'll take you out to see the world today!"
“Ah~~~”
The big stupid deer cheered.
Ning Daoran directly put it into the spirit beast bag. At present, the big stupid deer’s strength is not suitable for showing in front of people. He will wait for the opportunity to act later.
Wen family refinery.
Master Zi Guang was already there, and there were also three independent cultivators.
A charming woman in a long dress, with a very plump figure, at the ninth level of Qi Refining, named Ning Jiaojiao.
A big man with drooping eyebrows, named Zhu Ya, who is at the eighth level of Qi Refining.
There was also an old Taoist priest with a wine gourd hanging around his waist, who was at the ninth level of Qi training and named Wang Chongyan.
…
Gather all the people, set off immediately! Everyone took out their flying instruments, Ning Daoran stood on the green bamboo leaves, flying steadily. Among the group, he was the only one who looked the youngest.
"Fellow Daoist Ning."
Suddenly, a voice came from the plump woman Ning Jiaojiao: "To be honest, I am in the same group with Zhu Ya, and I participated in this expedition because of chance. If there is any movement later, or if it is necessary, you can join forces with the two of us!"
This book is an attempt of mine, so it will definitely have many shortcomings, but that doesn’t matter. Even if the performance of this book is not as good as expected, I will never give up, and I will definitely present to everyone the content that I have thought of long ago.
My bottom line is three million words, and at least write to the point of becoming a god!
I personally think it's the act of a coward to cut off a good beginning! (End of this chapter)
