Chapter 387 - Exquisite Iron

Chapter 387: Exquisite Iron

An hour later, Chen Chen stood up and stretched himself comfortably.

This tribulation was the easiest one he had ever experienced. Not only was there no danger to his life, but it was also somewhat comfortable. Even the few magic treasures that his grandmaster lent him did not come in handy.

Now, his body refinement cultivation level could be considered to have officially reached the Void Refinement realm. Compared to before, he could only use it to scare others. Now, he should be able to display a little bit of battle effectiveness.

Seeing that the Thunder Tribulation had stopped, Qing Mu, who was not far away, said with a speechless expression, “You still have the nerve to ask me to protect you in such a disaster? How afraid of death are you?”

He had thought that there would be a big battle, but now, things were less severe than they seemed. It was a waste of his feelings.

“Hehe.” Chen Chen laughed foolishly twice and did not respond.

“Alright, your grandmaster still has something to do. I don’t have time to play house with you here. You should cultivate well in the sect!”

After saying this, Qing Mu blew his beard and left with his eyes wide open.

Chen Chen watched his grandmaster leave. After Qing Mu disappeared, he returned to his cultivation place to cultivate.

For him, his body refinement cultivation level breaking through to the Void Refinement realm was just foreplay. The real highlight was breaking through from the Void Refinement realm to the Spirit Severing stage.

…

On the other side.

After Qing Mu returned the sect’s treasures, he prepared some Spirit Stones and other treasures and came before his master.

His master now had a nickname. She was called Fairy Wu Nian. Although she looked like an old woman, this was how it was in the upper realm. Most female cultivators were called fairies.

Looking at her disciple, Fairy Wu Nian said faintly, “Kid, this is the opportunity I fought for for you. If you can’t get that piece of Linglong Iron, then don’t come back.”

Hearing his master still call him kid, Qing Mu’s old face turned red, he said awkwardly, “Master, I can only do my best and leave it to fate. The Linglong Iron is a rare precious material for forging pill furnaces. This news has spread so widely, so there must be many alchemists who have gone. I might not be able to get it.”

Compared to other cultivators, alchemists paid more attention to their pill furnaces than their natal treasures. Some alchemists’ natal treasures were even pill furnaces.

As for the Linglong Iron, it was an extremely suitable material for forging alchemy furnaces. This material was completely opposite to those materials that could block divine senses. It could be directly penetrated by divine senses like it was air. Usually, with the addition of this material, alchemists would be able to more accurately sense the changes in the temperature and medicinal properties of the furnace.

A few days ago, news came from the Spirit Gold City tens of thousands of miles away. It was said that a batch of special ores had been mined in the mines near the Spirit Gold City. They were going to hold an auction for this purpose and invite all the cultivators within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles to participate.

One of them seemed to be a piece of Linglong Iron.

When Qing Mu came to the upper realm, although he had thought of a way to bring the alchemy furnace with him, the quality of the alchemy furnace in the upper realm was a little inferior.

If he could get that piece of Linglong Iron, then his alchemy furnace would be greatly improved.

“Yes, keep this storage ring well. You must bring back that piece of Linglong Iron.”

As she spoke, Fairy Wu Nian took out a storage ring and placed it in Qing Mu’s hand.

Qing Mu sensed it for a while, and his face suddenly froze. There were too many spiritual stones in this storage ring. Even for a master in the intermediate stage of the Spirit Severing stage like his master, it was not a small amount.

Seeing that her disciple was a little stunned, Fairy Wu Nian frowned slightly and said, “It was not easy for me to convince the others in the sect not to go to Spirit Gold City to compete with you. If you can’t bring back the Linglong Iron, how can I hold my head high?”

“Master, don’t worry! I will definitely bring back the Linglong Iron!”

Qing Mu’s eyes flashed with emotion as he said respectfully.

He wasn’t bragging. Although the Linglong iron was precious, it wasn’t a priceless treasure.

With the Spirit Stones given to him by his master and his own wealth, it was enough to buy a few pieces of Linglong iron. With such confidence, as long as he didn’t meet a fool, he would definitely be able to get the Linglong iron.

“Mm, go.” Fairy Wu Nian waved her hand, and her face returned to its usual cold and indifferent look.

Qing Mu nodded, bade farewell, and turned to leave the Jade Tripod Alchemy Clan.

…

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

Chen Chen sensed the surging spiritual energy in his body, and a trace of joy flashed across his eyes.

The Spirit Severing Stage was only a short distance away for him, and he could step into the Spirit Severing Stage at any time now.

Of course, this was mainly due to his divine senses having reached the Spirit Severing stage long ago. Compared to the average peak of the Void Refinement realm, he had less of a threshold to cross.

After rejoicing, Chen Chen subconsciously revealed an embarrassed expression. It had only been a month, and he had to borrow dharma treasures from his grandmaster again.

His Grandmaster’s Dharma treasures were also borrowed from the sect. He always asked the grandmaster to borrow things for him, which consumed the grandmaster’s prestige and contribution in the sect.

However, although he was embarrassed, he still had to borrow what he needed to borrow.

Lian Xu stepping into the Spirit Severing stage was not a joke. Even if the heavens did not deliberately target him, he still had to be careful.

As for Grandmaster’s favor, he could only slowly repay it after he stepped into the Spirit Severing stage.

Thinking of this, Chen Chen took out his communication token and sent a message. Then, he continued to cultivate.

However, even after half a day had passed, there was still no reply from the Grandmaster.

After thinking about it, he sent a message to the Grandmaster’s master, Fairy Wu Nian, but there was also no reply.

“Could it be that you find me annoying… or that you haven’t returned from your errands?”

Chen Chen was puzzled. After hesitating for a moment, he flew out of the mountain where he was and flew towards the mountain where the grandmaster was.

However, when he reached the sky above the mountain, he discovered that his grandmaster was not in the mountain at all. There was only a rather young disciple who was learning alchemy.

This disciple was a disciple that his grandmaster had just taken in not long ago. He only had the cultivation of Core Formation. Strictly speaking, he was his Uncle-Master.

“Ahem, ahem, Uncle-Master, has my grandmaster not returned from his errands?”

Flying in front of the young disciple, Chen Chen braced himself and asked.

“Ah… Senior, yes, Master has been gone for a month and hasn’t returned.”

The young disciple was startled and answered with a red face.

Chen Chen cupped his hands and bade farewell, then flew towards the mountain peak where Fairy Wu Nian was.

Fairy Wu Nian had stayed in the Jade Tripod Alchemy Clan for nearly a thousand years. There were hundreds of disciples and grand-disciples in total, and there were even a few Void Refinement realm existences among them.

Before he could ask them, Chen Chen found that these Void Refinement realm disciples were all looking uneasy, which made his heart thump.

‘Could it be that something had happened?’

Without thinking further, Chen Chen looked at one of the Void Refinement realm disciples with a serious expression and asked politely, “Fellow Daoist, May I know where Senior Wu Nian went?”

Seeing that Chen Chen was dressed in the uniform of a Jade Tripod Alchemy Clan disciple, his cultivation level could not be seen through, the Void Refinement realm disciple answered bitterly, “Senior Brother, I was also worried about this problem. I don’t know where Master has gone to, and her communication token has not responded either. She had been missing for several days.”

Hearing this, Chen Chen’s mood became even heavier. He quickly asked, “Junior Brother, what exactly happened? Tell me clearly.”

“It’s like this. A month ago, my eldest Senior Brother went to the Spirit Gold City to auction a piece of spirit iron. In the end, something happened and he disappeared. Master was worried about Eldest Senior Brother’s safety, so she personally went out to look for him half a month ago. At first, she would send a message back every day, but three days ago, there was no news.”

“Senior Brother, do you think Master and eldest Senior Brother died… unfortunately, our cultivation levels are too low. If we had the cultivation base of the sect master, we would have gone out to look for them long ago.”
