Just as Xiao Pang was painstakingly refining the wind copper outer shell for his precious Big Iron Bell. Huolong Daoist was doing the exact opposite of Xiao Pang. He was cutting the Iron Bell bit by bit.
Because he was unable to use his divine sense to find out the secrets hidden within the Iron Bell, he decided to cut the Iron Bell bit by bit. Every piece could not be larger than an inch, in case he missed something.
Xiao Pang's Big Iron Bell was simply too big. It was a thousand feet tall and a few hundred feet thick. It weighed almost a million pounds. Therefore, even though Huolong Daoist was a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator and could easily destroy it, it was not easy to cut it bit by bit. The amount of work was simply too big. It would definitely take a lot of effort.
Helpless, Huolong Daoist could only call for his two most trusted Jin Dan disciples to complete the job together. After a few days of hard work, without any sleep or rest, the thousand feet tall iron bell was finally cut into inch square pieces by them. But the treasure they were looking for was still nowhere to be found!
Seeing this, Huolong Daoist, who had paid the price of the Five Elements Essence Swords, became anxious. With a gloomy face, he glared at his two exhausted disciples and said coldly, "What did you find?"
"We didn't find anything, Master!" The two disciples shook their heads helplessly.
"So you didn't find anything, or you found something and didn't say it!" Huolong Daoist suddenly said angrily.
When the two disciples saw that Huolong Daoist suspected them of embezzling, they were so frightened that their bodies trembled. One of them hurriedly said, "Master, the two of us have been under your skin for the past few days. How could we have the guts to play tricks!"
"That's right, Master! We can't even wait to show our filial piety to you. How could we do such a thing! "The other hurriedly said," I suspect that there really is nothing inside! You might have been tricked by that damn fatty! "
"Hmm?" After Huolong Daoist heard this, he frowned and began to recall the situation at that time.
In fact, Huolong Daoist was already a few hundred years old. He had seen countless people and could be considered a wise old man. If it was any other time, Xiao Pang's little tricks wouldn't be able to fool him. But this time, Huolong Daoist was blinded by greed. His head was filled with thoughts of treasures, so he was careless and did not see through Xiao Pang's scheme. Now that he had calmed down, he carefully recalled Xiao Pang's expression and tone at that time. No matter how he looked at it, it seemed like he was acting!
Only then did Daoist HuoLong realise that he had been tricked by a silly darn fatty! He immediately flew into a rage and said, "Aiyaya, that damn fatty is so daring! He actually dared to play tricks on me! This old man was careless and actually fell for it! "
When the two Jin Dan Elixir disciples heard this, they were so angry that their eyebrows furrowed. They immediately raged, "Master! We can't let this matter rest. Let's go find that damn fatty to settle the score! "As they said that, they wanted to turn around and leave.
"Come back!" Huolong Daoist suddenly called out to them and said angrily, "This transaction was carried out in front of the sect master and his wife. Both parties were willing. With my status, how can I go back on my words! Do you think that I haven't lost enough face? "
"But master, that fellow lied to you?" One of the disciples said unwillingly.
"But he only used his words and expressions to confuse me. He didn't lie to me. I can only blame myself for being greedy for being tricked!" Huolong Daoist said regretfully, "This damn fatty is so young, but why is he so crafty and difficult to deal with!"
"But master, are we just going to let it go like this?" A disciple said with heartache, "The Five Elements Essence Swords are a set of high-grade magical treasures. Every sword has a rare Five Elements Essence Spirit and they have already gained sentience. As long as someone nourishes them with their spiritual sense for a few hundred years, they can easily become spiritual treasures. Are we just going to let that damn fatty take advantage of such a good thing? "
Hearing that, Huolong Daoist's heart felt as if it was being stabbed by a knife. One had to know that the Five Elements Essence Spirit was not easy to find. This thing was born in a place where the Five Elements Essence Spirit gathered. It would take at least ten thousand years for one or two to appear. The Five Elements Essence Spirit was the essence of the Five Elements Spiritual Qi. It was extremely rare and hard to find. The places where they gathered were even rarer, and the number of spirits that were formed with intelligence was even rarer.
Even in Huolong Daoist's hundreds of years of life, he had never seen a living Five Elements Essence Spirit before. As for this set of flying swords produced by ancient cultivators, each one of them had a corresponding elemental spirit. Just this point alone was enough to make their value increase greatly.
Furthermore, the Essence Spirit itself had a certain level of sentience. So if this set of flying swords continued to be nourished with spiritual sense, the possibility of them becoming spiritual treasures was almost 100%.
However, the Five Elements Essence Swords had all five elements and required the user to have the Five Elements Spiritual Qi. Otherwise, it would not be able to unleash its full power. To Huolong Daoist, a fire-type cultivator, only the Fire Element Essence Sword was useful to him. The others were just decorations. Thus, he kept it and did not use it.
But even so, this set of flying swords was highly valued by Huolong Daoist. He originally wanted to find an opportunity to sell it and exchange it with other cultivators for a treasure that was suitable for him. Unfortunately, due to the characteristics of this set of flying swords, its user had to have all five elements. Such cultivators were extremely rare, so Huolong Daoist was unable to find a suitable buyer. In the end, it ended up benefiting Xiao Pang.
Today, Huolong Daoist could be said to have lost the chicken and the eggs. He used such a good flying sword to exchange for a pile of scrap metal. How could he be willing to accept it?
But as a YuanYing cultivator and a senior in the sect, he could not bring himself to look for Xiao Pang to settle the score. But he was not willing to lose out just like that. Finally, his eyes lit up and he hurriedly said, "I will go and find the sect master. That fellow is definitely in cahoots with that darn fatty! They colluded to deceive me! " As he said that, Huolong Daoist waved his hand and kept the pile of black iron shards. Then, he flew towards the sect master's residence.
Not long later, Huolong Daoist found the sect master and his wife who were enjoying tea and flowers in his courtyard.
Seeing Huolong Daoist panting with rage, the sect master and his wife looked at each other and almost simultaneously guessed the reason for his visit. It was most likely for that bell.
Seeing how Daoist HuoLong was angered to the point his beard was crooked and his eyes were bloodshot, making him look frighteningly hideous, the sect master was elated. Rejoicing in his misfortune, he said, "Aiyaya, isn't this junior brother Huolong? Aren't you looking for your spiritual treasure? Why are you here? "
