"Brother Ling Tian!"
Duan Lingtian had only just entered the courtyard when he heard an exceedingly excited voice sound out from within.
The owner of the voice seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time.
Duan Lingtian wasn't unfamiliar with this voice.
"Big Brother Zhang."
Duan Lingtian revealed a slight smile when he saw the Zhang Clan's Eldest Young Master, Zhang Shouyong, walk out hastily and appear before him.
"Brother Ling Tian, please."
Zhang Shouyong hurriedly invited Duan Lingtian into the courtyard, and at the same time, he instructed the nearby servant girl. "No one is allowed to enter without my permission!"
"Yes."
Even though the servant girl didn't know what had happened to make the Eldest Young Master lose his composure like this, she still replied respectfully.
In next to no time, Duan Lingtian was led into a spacious room by Zhang Shouyong.
Zhang Shouyong stared at Duan Lingtian with a burning gaze as he rubbed his palms together and had an expression of anticipation, and he completely didn't have the steady appearance he had before.
"Brother Ling Tian, that spirit weapon bottle gourd of mine …"
Zhang Shouyong took a deep breath and looked at Duan Lingtian with a hopeful gaze.
"Alas."
Duan Lingtian pretended to sigh.
"Hmm?"
Zhang Shouyong's face went slightly grim when he saw Duan Lingtian acting like this.
Could it be that the grade three weapons craftsman wasn't willing to help me upgrade the spirit weapon bottle gourd to the grade of a grade three spirit weapon?
For a time, he felt a slight sense of loss in his heart.
"Brother Ling Tian, it's fine if that senior isn't willing to help … In any case, besides that spirit weapon bottle gourd, I still have another grade four spirit weapon."
After Zhang Shouyong returned to his senses, he instead consoled Duan Lingtian.
"Big Brother Zhang, when did I say that senior wasn't willing to help?"
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but laugh when he saw Zhang Shouyong like this.
"You …"
Zhang Shouyong was stunned, then laughed bitterly.
Only now did he realize that Duan Lingtian was intentionally sighing earlier.
"Big Brother Zhang, here."
With a raise of his hand, a wine gourd appeared out of thin air before Duan Lingtian passed it to Zhang Shouyong.
"This is … my wine gourd from before?"
After receiving the wine gourd, Zhang Shouyong looked at the even more exquisite gourd that was emitting a faint luster and could not help but be stunned.
The wine gourd now was completely different from the previous wine gourd.
"If it's not your wine gourd, could it be my wine gourd?"
Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled.
Hearing this, Zhang Shou Yong's face turned slightly red.
At the same time, a ball of flame formed from Origin Energy suddenly ignited in his hand, and then fused into the spirit weapon gourd in his hand.
In an instant, the luster around the gourd became incomparably deep.
Whoosh!
Above Zhang Shou Yong, the Heaven and Earth Energy stirred and eventually gathered into silhouettes of ancient horned dragons …
11 ancient flood dragon silhouettes appeared first, and they represented Zhang Shou Yong's current cultivation at the eighth level of the Void Initiation Stage.
Subsequently, another seven ancient horned dragon silhouettes and 7,000 ancient mammoth silhouettes appeared beside these 11 ancient horned dragon silhouettes …
The 7,000 ancient mammoth silhouettes seemed as if they were worshiping a supreme emperor, and they surrounded the 18 ancient horned dragon silhouettes at the center like a host of stars surrounding the moon.
"An amplification of the strength of seven ancient horned dragons and 7,000 ancient mammoths …"
Zhang Shou Yong who raised his head to look at the sky above him was slightly stunned for a moment.
"In other words, my spirit weapon gourd is able to amplify an entire 70% of my strength? Now, even if it's placed amongst a pile of grade three spirit weapons, it can be considered to be a top grade amongst top grade spirit weapons? "
Zhang Shou Yong's heart couldn't help but tremble intensely, as the scene before him had truly exceeded his expectations.
It caused him to feel extremely shocked!
Originally, as far as he was concerned.
So long as his spirit weapon gourd was able to advance to the level of a grade three spirit weapon, then even if it could only amplify his strength by 66% or 67%, he would still feel satisfied.
But now, it was completely out of his expectations.
70%!
An entire 70%!
A grade three spirit weapon that provided an amplification of 70% …
Even though he wasn't a weapons craftsman and wasn't familiar with the Dao of Weapons Refinement.
But even if he hadn't eaten pork, he'd at least seen a pig run.
He believed that not to mention the Darkhan Dynasty, even the various Dynasties didn't possess a grade three spirit weapon that provided an amplification of 70% … It was even to the extent that the Foreign Lands might not possess one.
Duan Lingtian stood at the side with a calm expression.
From the beginning until the end, he'd noticed the changes in Zhang Shou Yong's expression.
He wasn't surprised by Zhang Shou Yong's shock.
So long as it was an ordinary person, they would surely be shocked after finding out about the amplification of the spirit weapon gourd.
"The grade three spirit weapon I refined is equivalent to a grade three spirit weapon personally refined by the Samsara Emperor Wu. An amplification of 70% … In the entire Cloud Continent, there's probably no weapons craftsman capable of refining a grade three spirit weapon like this. "
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
Perhaps, there were many grade two weapons craftsmen and even grade one weapons craftsmen in Cloud Continent.
However, these weapons craftsmen might be able to easily refine a grade two or grade one spirit weapon that surpassed a grade three spirit weapon that provided an amplification of 70% …
But if they were asked to refine a grade three spirit weapon, it was practically impossible for them to refine a grade three spirit weapon that provided an amplification of 70%.
It was already unrelated to the grade of the weapons craftsman, and it was related to the comprehension and experience of the weapons craftsman towards the Dao of Weapons Refinement.
"I haven't headed to the Foreign Lands in this era, so I wonder if a figure that can compare to the Samsara Emperor Wu in the Dao of Weapons Refinement has appeared in Cloud Continent …"
"But I can be sure of one thing … During the second lifetime of the Samsara Emperor Wu, there wasn't a single weapons craftsman in Cloud Continent that could compare to him!"
This was something that Duan Lingtian was extremely sure of through the memories of the Samsara Emperor Wu.
Gradually, Duan Lingtian restrained his thoughts.
On the other hand, Zhang Shou Yong had finally returned to his senses, and he fondled the wine gourd in his hand lovingly, and his eyes were filled with a burning sheen.
"Big Brother Zhang, that senior said … He only helped you improve the amplification of your wine gourd, yet didn't help you increase the capacity of the wine gourd."
Duan Lingtian looked at Zhang Shou Yong and smiled. "So, the wine gourd in your hand can only hold as much wine as it could in the past."
Zhang Shou Yong returned to his senses and shook his head. "That's fine … At any rate, its original capacity is already sufficient for me to use."
As he finished speaking, Zhang Shou Yong completely returned to his senses, and he took a deep breath before looking sincerely at Duan Lingtian. "Brother Ling Tian, thank you."
Zhang Shou Yong's gratitude was extremely sincere.
"Big Brother Zhang, you're treating me as an outsider … It's fate that we got to know each other. Not to mention that if it wasn't for you lending a hand in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom's Ancient City of Everlast that day, I would have probably died at the hands of that withered old man long ago. "
Duan Lingtian shook his head with a smile as he spoke slowly.
When he recalled the dangerous scene in the Eternal Jade Restaurant in the Ancient City of Everlast that day, he still had a slight lingering fear in his heart.
At that time, not only had the cultivation of Xiong Quan who'd always followed by his side been crippled, even he and Li Fei were in imminent danger.
At the critical moment, it was precisely Zhang Shou Yong that made a move and killed the withered old man.
This life saving grace was something Duan Lingtian would never forget.
"As the saying goes, 'Karma is a cycle, and kindness is rewarded with kindness' … In the past, I didn't really believe these words. Today, I believe them. "
After being reminded by Duan Lingtian, Zhang Shou Yong couldn't help but recall the scene from the past, and he sighed with emotion.
"Brother Ling Tian."
In next to no time, Zhang Shou Yong's expression became serious as he spoke word by word. "In the future, if you have any orders, then I, Zhang Shou Yong, will surely go through water and tread on fire without hesitation!"
In the entire Darkhan Dynasty, there was only a single grade three spirit weapon on the surface.
Moreover, it was in the hands of the Darkhan Dynasty's Imperial Family.
Now, Duan Lingtian had given him a grade three spirit weapon, and to him, it was an extremely great kindness that he was unable to repay.
"Big Brother Zhang, you're exaggerating … But, I really do have something to trouble Big Brother Zhang with."
Duan Lingtian smiled.
"Please speak."
Zhang Shou Yong listened respectfully.
"Big Brother Zhang, if it's possible, I hope you can use your connections to help me search for an extremely rare medicinal material … The medicinal material drawn on this is that medicinal material, and I call it the Ageless Root."
With a raise of his hand, a drawing appeared in Duan Lingtian's hand.
On the drawing, a root shaped medicinal material was presented there, and if one looked carefully, it seemed to be the sharp claw of the legendary divine beast, the Phoenix.
"Ageless Root?"
Zhang Shou Yong's brows raised as he solemnly received the drawing from Duan Lingtian. "Don't worry Brother Ling Tian, I'll do my best to search for this medicinal material for you!"
"Thank you, Big Brother Zhang."
Duan Lingtian hurriedly expressed his gratitude, and then he said, "Besides that, if Big Brother Zhang has a way to obtain a spirit fruit used by Void Initiation Stage martial artists that you don't need, then I hope you can transfer it to me … I'll surely reward you generously!"
As he finished speaking, Duan Lingtian was slightly hesitant.
After all, Zhang Shou Yong was a Void Initiation Stage martial artist as well.
Presently, he was similarly striving on the path to the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties.
If it was a spirit fruit that he hadn't consumed in the past, it would surely be impossible for him to give it to another.
Everyone had their own selfish motives.
This was something that Duan Lingtian could understand.
"Brother Ling Tian, if you speak like this, then you're not taking me as a friend … You've asked someone to assist me in upgrading my spirit weapon bottle gourd to a grade three spirit weapon, and I owe you a great favor. If I'm really able to obtain a spirit fruit used by Void Initiation Stage martial artists, then I'll surely offer it up with both hands without the slightest frown. "
Zhang Shou Yong vowed solemnly.
"Thank you, Big Brother Zhang."
Duan Lingtian thanked him once more, and then he said, "Big Brother Zhang, since it's like this, then I'll bid my farewells first."
"Brother Ling Tian, why don't you stay at my place before the Dynasty Martial Competition begins?"
Zhang Shou Yong suggested.
"There's no need."
Duan Lingtian tactfully refused Zhang Shou Yong's good intentions. "I still have matters to attend to, so it's more convenient for me to return."
He still remembered.
When he made a trip to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion in Milky Way City the other day, he'd once told the Pavilion Master, Xiang Ying, that once there was news of a spirit fruit used by Void Initiation Stage martial artists and the Ageless Root, he should ask Xiang Ying to look for him at the Darkstone Empire's estate in the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital.
If Xiang Ying really had news and came to look for him, yet he wasn't there, then it would truly be too late for regret.
"Yes."
Zhang Shou Yong nodded and didn't continue persisting.
"I'll send you out of the estate."
Subsequently, Zhang Shou Yong intended to send Duan Lingtian out of the Zhang Clan Estate.
