Chapter 221 – Pleasures

“So it’s him!”

Everyone present were all cultivators born and bred in the Mengyu County, so they naturally knew that the genius cultivator from Mengyu County who was accepted as an inner disciple by the Heaven-Shaken Sec few years ago, had only trained for a few years. Now, his cultivation was already at the third level of the martial arts realm, and even cultivators at the late stage of the martial arts realm had all died in his hands.

However, Zhang Yueming’s cultivation was, after all, one level higher, and the gap between the primary and middle levels of the martial arts realm was not that big of a threshold. If one didn’t want to be able to reach the realm with a cultivation base of three years or more, then it would be impossible to even think of reaching it, and even if one did, they might not be able to do so after three years, so naturally, they would not be able to compete with the geniuses of the Heaven-Shaken Sect.

Thinking about it this way, everyone seemed to have a sigh of relief for Zhang Yueming. Geniuses and monsters were rare, and they were too far away from normal cultivators.

Yang Junshan naturally did not know that his companions had such complicated thoughts, but after hearing that Zhang Yueming had levelled up to the third stage, he could not help but sigh. He had already tried his best to catch up, but compared to true geniuses, he could only look at their backs.

Everyone had their own thoughts as they walked out of the small courtyard. After agreeing on the time and place to meet up, they each dispersed to stroll around the marketplace.

As for the supplies provided by the Mengyu County, it was not enough for Yang Junshan who was used to cultivating. Hence, he decided to other than use the spoils of war that he had gotten in the past two days as cultivation resources.

He walked around the city square, tipping out all the things he did not need, and barely managed to gather enough materials for one month of cultivation. Thus, he considered whether he should send a letter home for his father to send over a batch of cultivation materials.

When that time came, he would definitely have to go and join in the fun. This time, the Xishan Village’s caravan would have to have at least tens of large carriages, and at that time, he could just transfeortion of them from his father’s place.

The market for Shatian Village had already been formed, but it was still small. After gathering enough cultivation materials, he casually walked around the village foound. When he didn’t find anything that caught his eyes, he decided to go outside the village and meet up with the rest of the team.

Unexpectedly, just as he took two steps, he heard someone shout from behind him, “Brother Yang, brother Yang?”

Yang Junshan was suspicious in his heart, when he turned around, his face was slowly filled with surprise. He anxiously went up and asked, “Brother Ouyang, why are you here?”

A young man who was a few years older than Yang Junshan walked up with a face full of surprise and surprise. It was Ouyang Xulin, who had not seen Yang Junshan for a long time, and could only hear him laugh: “It’s indeed Brother Yang, just now, you passed by the entrance of Refining Institute. I suddenly glanced at your back, and thought I was seeing things.

When Yang Junshan heard “Refining Department” and thought of the small courtyard that he had used to visit Luo Bingkun, he asked with a smile, “Brother Ouyang, could it be that you are Heaven-Shaken Sect’s refiner that has been stationed at Sha Tian Village?”

Ouyang Xulin said: “Isn’t it me? This time, the sect has clashed with the Sirius Gatnd Opening Spirit School s at their borders, so the sect has sent a few young alchemists, refiners, talisman craftsmen, puppeteers, array masters and so on over here. They are not only to assist the cultivators patrolling the borders, but also to gain experience, I am the refiner here, why are you here, are you …”

Yang Junshan laughed: “County Magistrate Chen has sent a summons order to the Mengyu County, I am a border guard cultivator, in the third team.”

“third team?”

Ouyang Xulin’s expression froze for a moment, as if he was pondering about something, and then he said suddenly: “Is that the small team that directly killed the five Martial Realm Cultivator s, while not a single person from their side perished?”

Yang Junshan did not mind, because the conflict between the three sides that broke out a few days ago had a huge impact. As the artificer stationed at the Heaven-Shaken Sect, it would not be difficult for a disciple to know about this.

Seeing Yang Junshan’s nod, Ouyang Xulin exclaimed: “As expected, it’s you two. You may not know this, but your team’s Senior Brother Liu Zhifei has already won the praise of the Adept Chen because of this battle. It is said that he is currently fighting for the right to recommend the sect’s Successor Disciple in the hands of the Adept Chen.

Yang Junshan was shocked: “There’s suching?”

Although the Heaven-Shaken Sect took out something that would reward one’s head, even if it was not a cultivator of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, Yang Junshan knew that those things, even if they were spirit techniques and spirit arts, were considered to be the lowest ranked among the inheritances that the Heaven-Shaken Sect possessed. As an inner disciple, Liu Zhifei naturally did not think much of them, not to mention that the Heaven-Shaken Sect had the possibility of obtaining the recommendation of a Successor Disciple.

All sorts of benefits were comparable to that of the Adept Realm Cultivator, and the things spilled out from the Heaven-Shaken Sect were already considered to be a shocking reward in the eyes of others, but Liu Zhifei and the rest obviously did not like these three melon and two dates, so they might as well use them to win the hearts of the team.

As to why Liu Zhifei would give him his human head worth of achievements, Yang Junshan could not help but guess if it was related to the Adept Chen, but it was not possible, after all, Yang Junshan knew his own worth, and knew that it was not possible for the Adept Chen to recommend him to exchange his worth as a Successor Disciple.

The two of them casually went teahouse and asked for two cups of spirit tea. Yang Junshan could not wait and asked: “Brother Ouyang, are you confident you can upgrade my Mountain Monarch Seal to a middle tier magic tool?”

Ouyang Xulin was a little surprised as he said, “Your Mountain Monarch Seal iop-notch lower quality tool. If you want to level up, you would need to use twenty-four types of middle quality spirit materials at the best. Have you already prepared all of them?”

Yang Junshan nodded his head and said, “That’s about it. Originally, I was still thinking about how to find Brother Ouyang, after all, other than Brother Ouyang, I do not have any other methods to becomefining master, not to mention that the Mountain Monarch Seal was originally Brother Ouyang’s masterpiece.

Ouyang Xulin muttered to himself: “To be honest, I have already done this a few times to raise a lower tier magic tool to a middle tier magic tool. After all, with a lower tier magic tool as my foundation, it is not as difficult as directly refining a middle tier magic tool, but Mountain Monarch Seal is after all a perfect magic tool refined from twelve different types of spirit materials. To advance to middle tier magic tools, you still have to walk the path of perfection, or else wouldn’t you have to wastigh grade magic tool?

Yang Junshan laughed: “No matter how confident you are, I can only look for you now, unless you can introduce me to an alchemist whose refining skills are far above yours.”

Ouyang Xulin raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and laughed: “You wish. If it’s an ordinary magical equipment, then it’s fine, but a complete magical equipment is not so easily come by. Moreover, it’s my first time refining a complete magical equipment.

With a flip of his hand, Yang Junshan used a small cloth bag to put the Mountain Monarch Seal down, and gave it to Ouyang Xulin: “If that’s the case, I’ll have to trouble Brother Ouyang.”

Ouyang Xulin weighed the bag containing the Mountain Monarch Seal in his hand and muttered to himself once again: “You must think this through carefully, because I, the Mountain Monarch Seal, am definitely going to have to spend a lot of effort here, and since I’m the equipment forger stationed here, my daily energy must be spent on fixing and repairing magical equipment for other people, thus, without three months, I’m afraid that I won’t be able to succeed, and this way, you will not have any magical equipment in your possession for at least three months, if you meet an enemy, your own strength will be greatly weakened.”

Yang Junshan was startled, he naturally knew what the Mountain Monarch Seal meant to him. Currently, the border situation was getting more and more tense, and conflict could break out again at any time, if he did not have the Mountain Monarch Seal, his strength would be reduced by at least twenty to thirty percent.

But at this time, Yang Junshan suddenly thought of something and laughed. Ouyang Xulin did not understand and asked: “What are you laughing about?”

Yang Junshan said: “Have you forgotten that I once wanted you to forge a magical equipment bow for me?”

Ouyang Xulin was startled for a moment, then he remembered that something like this had happened, and said: “Are you saying that you have already prepared the spirit materials needed to refine the longbow?”

Yang Junshan said: “That’s right, you should first refine the longbow, then raise the Mountain Monarch Seal. This way, I can use the magic tool longbow to replace it foeriod of time.

Ouyang Xulin rubbed his chin and thought for a while, then said: “The snake spine and snake tendons in your hands are of excellent quality. Refining a longbow magical equipment is mainly about bow arms and bowstrings, the other spirit materials are all support, and you don’t need to use 12 types of spirit materials, this way the difficulty of refining the technique will be reduced quite a bit. With my current level of artifact forging, about fifteen days will be enough time to refine it, but taking into account that I still have to fix the magical equipment for others, refining spirit materials and the like, extending the time to twenty days should not broblem.”

“Alright, let’s do it this way!”

Yang Junshan followed Ouyang Xulin to the small Refining Department, which had specially arranged for him. Yang Junshan handed over the Lamia fingerbone, a lump of snake tendon, snake skin, and a few types of low grade spirit materials to him.

Ouyang Xulin carefully examined the serpent demon’s vertebral column, and said: “I wonder where you found such a barbaric snake, the quality of its vertebral column is much higher than that of ordinary barbarian snakes.”

Yang Junshan laughed secretly in his heart, this was not a barbarian snake, but a Spirit Serpent Demon who had activated his intelligence and knew how to cultivate by himself. However, seeing that this snake bone was five feet long, he guessed that he would not need so many tools to refine it, and said: “If there is anything left, please remember to make me a few special arrows.”

A crazed artificer like Ouyang Xulin would never be accepted by anyone with a job in hand. Upon hearing this, he impatiently waved his hand and said: “Alright, alright, let’s go quickly. We’ll come back in twenty days.”
