"You are …"
Liu Ming glanced at the youth in front of him. He looked to be around 25 or 26 years old, had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a tall and sturdy figure. He looked somewhat familiar.
"I am Jin Huan. I met Fellow Daoist Bai at the Wei Prefecture's market place with my master. Now, I have come to deliver Fellow Daoist's custom-made item on my master's order." As Jin Huan spoke, he took out a small jade box from his sleeve and handed it over with a serious expression.
"I remember now. Fellow Jin is indeed the person that follows Senior Fang." Liu Ming suddenly realized and his expression relaxed as he accepted the jade box. He opened it on the spot and took a look inside. His face immediately lit up.
"Not bad, Senior Fang is worthy of being the number one blacksmith in Wei Zhou Market. He actually managed to refine this item in such a short amount of time." Liu Ming put away the jade box and said with satisfaction.
"Back then, although Liu left behind a lot of main materials, this item is too small. My master failed seven or eight times in a row before finally refining one. According to the agreement, the remaining materials will be used by my master. The Heavenly Contract that was originally set has been completed. "The youth said with a serious expression.
"Of course, this kind of item is not easy to refine. To be able to refine it so quickly, I have to thank Master Fang." Liu Ming cupped his hands and replied with a smile.
"That's good, I have finished my business and will not stay here any longer." Jin Huan nodded his head and immediately urged the white gas under him to shoot off into the distance.
Liu Ming suppressed the trace of excitement in his heart and shot off in the direction of Nine Infants Mountain.
After the time it takes to eat a meal, Liu Ming returned to his residence. As soon as he sat down cross-legged in the cultivation room, he took out the jade box from before and opened the lid once again.
Inside the jade box was a thin green needle that emitted a cold light. It was abnormally thin and was like a cow's hair.
"With so many rat bristles, I was only able to forge such a needle-shaped totem. Although I don't know how many materials became the reward for forging, the price I paid this time was not small." Liu Ming muttered a few words, then he took out the green needle and placed it in front of him.
It turned out that when he first entered the largest weapon forging shop in Wei Zhou's marketplace, he immediately found the best weapon forging master and gave the twenty or so strands of green fur of the giant rat to him. He asked him to use the fur as the main material to forge a needle-shaped Totem.
As long as he could refine a Spirit Tool, the rest of the materials would be used as compensation for the refiner and other auxiliary materials.
As soon as the forger saw so many mouse hairs of the Condensation Period later stage beastkin, he immediately agreed to this matter and made a heavenly oath.
With this oath and his identity as a disciple of the Barbarian Ghost Sect, Liu Ming was not afraid of the other party breaking the promise.
Now, after such a long period of time, the other party had indeed forged this Spiritual Weapon and sent a disciple to deliver it directly to him.
Liu Ming made a hand sign with one hand and opened his mouth to spit out a ball of Essence Qi at the green needle.
The needle instantly absorbed all of the Essence Qi and began to flicker slightly without stopping.
Liu Ming's ten fingers moved incessantly and a series of hand signs shot out.
"Pu!"
Countless green inscriptions appeared on the needle. After spinning and condensing, they turned into three layers of thin inscriptions that buzzed incessantly.
"As expected, it is only a low grade totem with three layers of restrictions. However, for the current me, it is enough. I will call you the" Jade Shadow Needle ". I hope you can really come and go without a trace." Seeing this, Liu Ming was not surprised. Instead, he immediately made a hand sign and began to refine the item.
After a few days, Liu Ming finally finished refining the first layer of restrictions on the Jade Shadow Needle. He held it between his fingers and waved it slightly. Immediately, an almost invisible breeze flashed by.
A faint light flashed on the opposite wall and a small black dot appeared. It quickly melted and became bigger. In an instant, it became a black hole the size of a fist. At the same time, a faint fishy smell came out of the hole.
Not only did this Jade Shadow Needle come and go without a trace, it was also extremely poisonous.
… …
In a huge hall in the belly of the Nine Infants Mountain, Gui Ru Quan, Zhu Chi, and Martial Aunt Zhong were standing in front of a huge cauldron that was several feet tall. They were all making hand signs with one hand and had serious expressions on their faces as they continuously muttered.
On the ground below the huge cauldron, there was a silver inscription formation that was more than a hundred feet in diameter. It buzzed endlessly and strands of five colored light continuously appeared and entered the cauldron.
This cauldron was bronze in color and had three legs and two ears. The surface of the cauldron was engraved with densely packed cloud shaped inscriptions. The rumbling sound from inside the cauldron was unceasing and the cauldron was slightly trembling, as if there was something rampaging inside.
After an unknown amount of time, the light from the silver inscription formation became more and more intense. It seemed as if the entire cauldron was completely submerged. However, the rumbling sound from inside the cauldron gradually became quieter and quieter.
"It's about time! Shi Chuan, be careful! "At this time, Gui Ru Quan suddenly shouted.
"Reporting to Master, this disciple is ready." A youth who had been waiting in the hall for a long time immediately stepped forward and said.
His body was wrapped with a light silver chain that seemed to wrap around his entire body more than ten times. His expression was extremely solemn.
"Good, Junior Zhu, Junior Zhong, open the cauldron together!" Seeing this, Gui Ru Quan shouted at the host and Martial Aunt Zhong.
Following this, the chanting stopped and at the same time, he raised his finger and pointed at the air above the huge cauldron.
With a "peng" sound, the cauldron's lid trembled and flew into the air.
In the next moment, with a "sou" sound, a black shadow shot out from the middle of the cauldron.
However, after Gui Ru Quan and the other two pointed again, the black shadow immediately froze in mid-air. It was the head of a man with disheveled hair, black lips, and red eyes.
Below his neck, there was nothing. In his mouth were two fangs. On the top of his head, there was a short green horn that was a few inches long. On both sides of his cheeks, there was a crimson "seal" character that was the size of a thumb. After being locked in mid-air by the three Spirit Masters, he immediately let out a strange "wu wu" sound. The top of his head suddenly shook and all of his black hair actually stood up straight, making him look extremely ferocious.
At this time, Shi Chuan let out a low roar and the chain on his body swung out with a "kuang dang" sound. One end of the chain immediately transformed into a shackle and flew towards the head.
"Pu!"
A shocking scene appeared!
With a flash of silver light, the shackle, as if it was an invisible body, entered the head and disappeared without a trace.
However, the ferocious head immediately let out a blood-curdling scream. Black gas rolled from his body as if he was suffering from great pain.
Seeing this, Gui Ru Quan and the other two were overjoyed and withdrew their Fa Li at the same time.
The man's head that was originally locked in mid-air felt the space around him loosen and he immediately regained his freedom.
After letting out a strange cry, the long hair on his head suddenly trembled and instantly turned into countless black threads that flew towards the youth in the distance.
Seeing this, Shi Chuan pulled on the chain on his body. At the same time, he opened his mouth and spat out a ball of blood essence.
The silver chain suddenly tightened with a blur.
The head immediately let out another mournful scream. Countless black veins appeared on his face and his long hair weakly retracted.
At this time, the ball of blood essence flashed a few times and arrived in front of the head. With a "pu" sound, it turned into a blood colored glyph that stuck to the head's forehead. It was as if it was engraved onto the head.
The ferocious expression on the head immediately disappeared the moment the blood colored glyph appeared. It quietly floated in mid-air without moving.
Shi Chuan muttered something and once again pulled on the chain on his body.
After a "kuang dang" sound, the chain tightened and the man's head slowly flew forward. Then, it stopped a hundred or so feet away from the youth.
Seeing this, Shi Chuan made a hand sign with one hand and the chain on his body turned into a dozen or so pythons that shot out. They all disappeared into the head with a flash.
At this time, the youth let out a long breath and continuously spat out mouthful after mouthful of blood essence. His fingers made various hand signs as he continuously pointed at the head.
The man's wooden eyes slowly closed and his face also became calm.
Shi Chuan let out a low shout and raised his hand to make a hand sign. The head and the chain on his body immediately started to shrink. Finally, it turned into a ball of black gas and entered a leather pouch that was full of red and green glyphs on his waist.
"Haha, good. Shi Chuan, you have finally subdued this Flying Head. It is a true demon that our faction has kept for many years. Although we mostly relied on this Demon Subduing Chain made from Deep Sea Coldlight Iron to be able to do this, it is more than enough to deal with the Large Competition of the Sect. The heavy responsibility of whether or not our faction will be able to rise again is all on your shoulders. "Gui Ru Quan walked over and said with a smile on his face.
"Many thanks to Master and the two Martial Uncles for bestowing the totem. This disciple will definitely not let the Sect lose face in this Large Competition. I will definitely enter the top five of the Lunar Monument." Shi Chuan was also extremely excited. He immediately knelt on the ground and almost swore.
"Since the three of us have bestowed this Demon Subduing Chain to you, we naturally feel that you are the most suitable person. Originally, Xiao Feng was also a good candidate. However, it is a pity that he has just advanced to a Late Spirit Apostle and has too little experience in fighting with others. Even if he can subdue the Flying Head, he will not be able to obtain a high ranking in the Large Competition. "Zhu Chi also walked over and slowly said.
"This disciple will definitely not disappoint the three teachers' expectations!" Shi Chuan once again said sincerely.
"Alright, you can stand up. You have only just obtained the Demon Subduing Chain and the Flying Head. You still need a lot of time to practice and familiarize yourself with them. From now until the Large Competition begins, you will remain here. The two Martial Uncles will personally give you pointers. "Gui Ru Quan revealed a satisfied expression as he said.
Shi Chuan naturally nodded his head in agreement.
… …
In a hidden small room in the Barbarian Ghost Sect, Du Hai's arms were wrapped around Mu Yun Xian. The two of them had an abnormally intimate expression.
"Are you really going to fight for the position of a Core Disciple this time?" After an unknown amount of time, Mu Yun Xian finally raised her head and asked with a face full of worry.
"Yes, the last time we entered the Ghost Hell Region, we risked our lives to collect that item. Moreover, we paid a huge price to refine that Spirit Pill. Wasn't it for today? Don't worry, our Sect originally did not have many Late Spirit Apostles under the age of thirty, less than a hundred people. With the help of this Spirit Pill, I believe that I will definitely be able to obtain a good ranking among the Core Disciples. This way, your master will have no reason to oppose the two of us being together. "Du Hai replied with a face full of determination.
