A fat man in a frenzy.
"Hehe, Wang Nian, this stone must contain the Phoenix Blood Stone, right? Back then, your father got lucky and got a piece of it. I didn't expect that today's good luck would fall on me. Thank you very much! Hahaha! " Wang Chen looked at Luo Zheng and Luo Yunyang's suffocated expressions and was extremely pleased. "Seven days later, I will collect the Stellar Fire Source and become an official Weapon Refiner. At that time, I will use this Phoenix Blood Stone to refine my first magic weapon!"
After saying this, Wang Chen led the few Wang Family youths behind him and left.
"Hahahaha!"
As they watched them walk away, Luo Zheng and Wang Nian could no longer hold it in and burst into laughter.
Wang Nian laughed until his stomach hurt. "Hahaha, Wang Chen is an idiot. What Phoenix Blood Stone? It's clearly a piece of green rock. With such eyesight, you want to become a Weapon Refiner? Pui! "
After laughing for a while, Wang Nian said, "Luo Zheng, thank you for helping me vent my anger today."
"Not only did I vent my anger, but I also obtained a treasure. Hehe." Luo Zheng grinned and picked up an oval-shaped stone the size of a watermelon from the dozen or so stones left by the middle-aged man. "Let's go. Let's go back first."
Seeing this, Wang Nian's eyes lit up and he hurriedly followed.
The two of them jogged all the way back to the Wang Clan Manor. Luo Zheng carried Stone back to his courtyard and entered the bedroom with Wang Nian, closing the door behind him.
"Luo Zheng, could it be that there's something strange about this stone?" Wang Nian asked impatiently as he looked at Luo Zheng's mysterious expression. His heart was itching to know more.
"I'm not sure what's inside this stone, but it's definitely not something ordinary. As for the piece that Wang Chen bought, I'm sure it's a rock, "Luo Zheng said with a grin.
It turned out that Luo Zheng had inadvertently discovered that there was a rock in the middle aged man's stall that was emitting a strange fluctuation. He knew that the rock was definitely not an ordinary object.
Among all the things in the world, any material that could be used to refine divine weapons above the level of magic tools could be called heavenly materials and earthly treasures. These materials would more or less contain a trace of spirituality.
However, this type of spirituality was extremely weak and ordinary people would have a hard time discovering it. Even experts who had surpassed the Body Tempering Realm and developed Divine Sense would have a hard time discovering it.
However, Luo Zheng was different. Within the range of the Sword Master Space, his divine sense was magnified a hundred times, reaching the microscopic realm. Even the tiniest spiritual fluctuation would not be able to escape his senses.
"If I'm not wrong, there must be something else inside this stone. It's just that for some reason, it's wrapped in a layer of green rock," Luo Zheng said with certainty as he sensed the fluctuations emanating from the stone.
This spiritual fluctuation was extremely obvious. It was like a powerful aura, and there was a huge energy fluctuation.
After thinking for a while, Luo Zheng placed the watermelon-sized stone on the ground, took out his steel sword, and fiercely hacked at it.
Clang!
The sharp sword hacked down like a hot knife through butter. The green rock was split open from the middle like tofu.
However, when the sword hacked into the middle of the stone, it suddenly met with a great obstruction. Instantly, the sound of metal clashing could be heard.
Ka-cha!
The longsword, which had been tempered a hundred times, also broke into two pieces.
A grayish-gold rock the size of a fist fell out from the center of the stone.
"Thunder Metal Essence! This is Thunder Metal Essence! "
Wang Nian's eyes widened.
After all, he was from the Wang Clan. This fatty had some knowledge of some mineral materials. When he saw the grayish-gold rock, he couldn't help but cry out in surprise. He was so excited that his voice trembled.
Thunder Metal Essence was a rock that contained iron. After being struck by lightning from the Nine Heavens, it absorbed the power of the lightning and transformed into a material. Its value was much higher than the Phoenix Blood Stone.
It was said that when a finger-sized piece of Thunder Metal Essence was added to a weapon being refined, the weapon would contain the power of lightning and become a Low Tier Magic Weapon.
This fist-sized piece of Thunder Metal Essence could be refined into at least five or six Low Tier Magic Weapons, or even one Mid Tier Magic Weapon.
"Looks like my hopes of entering the Blood Tempering Realm will depend on this piece of Thunder Metal Essence. However, if I sell it as a material, I'm afraid it'll only be worth a million taels of gold. If I can refine it into a Magic Weapon, its value will increase by several times."
When Luo Zheng saw the fist-sized piece of Thunder Metal Essence, his breathing quickened. His eyes flashed as he calculated in his heart.
The harvest this time was so great that it was beyond his imagination.
"Luo Zheng, quickly put away this piece of Thunder Metal Essence. Think of a way to sell it. Then you'll have enough pills to raise your cultivation."
Wang Nian stared at the piece of Thunder Metal Essence, his eyes shining. He swallowed his saliva and finally looked away with difficulty as he spoke to Luo Zheng.
"We found this piece of Thunder Metal Essence together. Naturally, everyone who saw it has a share. If you trust me, let me handle it. It'll definitely benefit both of us the most. " Luo Zheng's heart warmed as he firmly shook his head. "Alright, you don't have to say anymore. Before entering the black market, didn't you say that you wanted to work hard and cultivate? I'll pass on a Human Tier Upper Tier Martial Art to you now! "
Luo Zheng did not allow any explanation as he put away the Thunder Metal Essence and spoke with a serious face.
"A Human Tier Upper Tier Martial Art? How did you get this?"
Wang Nian's eyes widened as his face was filled with disbelief.
A Human Tier Upper Tier Martial Art was extremely rare. Other than the Great Dynasties, only the top clans could possess it. Although the Wang clan had been in business for many years and was the number one clan in Green Rock City, they had never obtained a Human Tier Upper Tier Martial Art.
"This martial art is called the Falling Star Fist. From what I know, it's very likely to be a family heirloom of the Rong clan. I'll pass it on to you this time. Remember, unless it's a matter of life and death, don't use it in front of others."
Luo Zheng said with a serious face.
He had thought about it for a long time before deciding to pass on the Falling Star Fist to Wang Nian.
After all, Wang Nian's talent was limited. A normal martial artist would only need three days to completely refine a Qi Nourishing Pill, but Wang Nian would need more than seven days.
During this time, although Luo Zheng did not need to rely on the Falling Star Fist to refine the pill, he could feel that this martial art was extremely effective in refining the pill and the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth. To help Wang Nian increase his cultivation as quickly as possible, practicing the Falling Star Fist was the best choice.
"The Human Tier Upper Tier Falling Star Fist, and it's a family heirloom of the Rong clan … This isn't too good, is it?" Wang Nian was both excited and afraid as he spoke with a trembling voice.
At this moment, Wang Nian was also extremely shocked. Rong Lun was one of the three great hereditary princes of the Hundred Battles Dynasty.
The Rong clan was equivalent to a superpower in the Hundred Battles Dynasty. Even those first-rate families could not do anything in front of the Rong clan. A second-rate family like the Wang clan was like an ant that could be annihilated with a flick of a finger.
"Don't worry, there's absolutely no problem with the origin of the Falling Star Fist. I'm only telling you not to use it in front of others as a precaution. If you don't believe me, then forget it. "
Luo Zheng said with a smile when he saw Wang Nian's eagerness.
"I'll learn it! I'll definitely let my father hold his head high! "
Wang Nian gritted his teeth and revealed a determined expression.
"Alright, listen carefully …" Luo Zheng nodded his head in satisfaction and slowly recited the incantation of the Falling Star Fist. At the same time, he also told Wang Nian some of the main points of the Falling Star Fist that he had comprehended during this period of time.
After Wang Nian's initial excitement, he slowly calmed down and threw away all distracting thoughts as he memorized the incantation in earnest.
After Wang Nian had memorized all the incantations, Luo Zheng took out a Qi Nourishing Pill and let Wang Nian consume it to cultivate on his own. Then, he started to cultivate the Lightning Spike at the side and gave a few pointers from time to time.
"The effect of this upper-grade Human Tier Martial Art is indeed extraordinary. If I cultivate diligently, I might only need two days to refine a Qi Nourishing Pill!"
Four hours later, Wang Nian was covered in sweat but his tired face was filled with excitement. He could feel that his cultivation, which had not changed for a long time, had actually improved significantly. Furthermore, he had refined a tenth of the Qi Nourishing Pill.
"The Falling Star Fist is the family martial art of the Rong clan. It's naturally extraordinary." Luo Zheng smiled and nodded his head. He could not help but feel a little regretful. If he could use the Heavenly Sword Array to help Wang Nian refine the pill, his cultivation would definitely be much faster.
The night passed slowly in the midst of cultivation.
The next day, Luo Zheng, Wang Nian and Changhai Wang, accompanied by the Wang Clan's Third Elder, entered the Wang Clan's Clan Vault. They came to a secret room in the deepest part of the Clan Vault and saw the Stellar Fire Source.
This lump of Stellar Fire Source was yellowish-grey in color and was about the size of a thumb. It was kept in a cold jade box.
The moment the box was opened, a shocking amount of heat was emitted. The strong heat caused the air to distort.
Luo Zheng could feel the power of the Stellar Fire Source and was secretly excited. "The quality of this lump of Stellar Fire Source is not low. It should be at least Grade Three and should be enough to refine the Blue Fire Crystal."
"Nephew Luo Zheng, this is the Stellar Fire Source that our Wang Clan Ancestor found in the barren mountains outside Green Rock City three hundred years ago. It was said that at the beginning, it was only the size of a fist. However, as time passed, it lost a lot of its power. If not for the fact that my nephew, Wang Chen, had a talent for forging weapons, this Stellar Fire Source would have completely dissipated in a few more decades. "
Wang Changhai glanced at Luo Zheng and said with a complicated expression.
"Father, Wang Chen's talent for forging weapons is only low. His ability to sense the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth is extremely weak. Even if he obtains the Stellar Fire Source, he will at most become the lowest level of Weapon Forger."
Wang Nian said with a face full of anger.
"Wang Nian, don't talk nonsense!"
Wang Changhai glanced at the Third Elder who had accompanied them into the secret room. Seeing that the Third Elder was unhappy, he hurriedly glared at his son and scolded him.
This time, the Council of Elders had decided to allow Wang Chen to collect the Astral Fire Source, and Wang Zhanghai could not disobey. He was very clear in his heart that once Wang Chen collected the Astral Fire Source, his position as the Patriarch would come to an end. When the time came, Wang Chen's father would definitely become the new Head of the Family. At this moment, some of the Elders in the clan had already stood on Wang Chen's father's side.
If Wang Nian's words were to reach Wang Chen's ears, the father and son would definitely have a hard time in the clan in the future.
"Hmph, you don't know how to improve yourself and still curse your own clan. Head of the Family, I think you should spend more time educating Wang Nian properly. "This Elder did not take Wang Changhai Wang seriously at this moment and said in a strange tone.
When Wang Changhai Wang saw this, he hurriedly took out a gold note and stuffed it into the Third Elder's hand. With a smile, he said, "Third Elder, Wang Nian is young and ignorant. I hope you won't take offense to his nonsense."
The Third Elder looked at the gold note in his hand indifferently. When he saw the amount on it, a smile appeared on his face and he nodded. "Hmph, I'll let it go this time. In the future, don't say such things that will affect the clan."
"Hurry up and thank the Third Elder!" Wang Changhai Wang glared fiercely at Wang Nian.
"Forget it, you guys go ahead. Remember, do not touch the Stellar Fire Source. Leave as soon as possible. I'll wait for you outside." The Third Elder kept the gold note and said indifferently before walking out.
He was not worried that Wang Changhai Wang and the two youths would dare to do anything to the Stellar Fire Source. If anything happened to the Stellar Fire Source, even if Wang Changhai Wang was the Head of the Family, he would not be able to walk out of here alive.
It was already certain that Wang Changhai Wang would lose power. A fallen phoenix was no better than a chicken. Therefore, the Third Elder did not take this pair of father and son seriously at all.
"Hmph, snobbish!" Wang Nian stared at the Third Elder's back and stomped his foot fiercely, his face full of indignation.
"You stay with Nephew Luo." Wang Changhai Wang sighed in disappointment and hurriedly chased after Wang Nian, trying to appease him with a smile.
"Wang Nian, help me keep watch outside. If anyone comes in, inform me immediately."
