Chen Nanfeng hurriedly said, "Fellow Daoist Xia, you're too polite!"
He looked at Xia Ruofei in front of him and could not help but sigh in his heart. Two years ago, Xia Ruofei was still only at the Gold Core Stage. At that time, he had just broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage and was in high spirits. At that time, Xia Ruofei had taken out precious crystals at the critical moment, allowing him to successfully complete his breakthrough. Therefore, he was grateful and in order to show his closeness, he even agreed with Xia Ruofei that he would call him "Nephew" while Xia Ruofei would call him "Uncle Chen". However, in the blink of an eye, Xia Ruofei's cultivation had surpassed his. He was too embarrassed to call him uncle and nephew anymore.
Chen Nanfeng sighed inwardly and prepared to activate the Seven Stars Pavilion.
He suddenly thought of something and turned around to ask, "By the way, Fellow Daoist Xia, your friends haven't come into contact with the Xuanyuan Sutra, right?"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "The Xuanyuan Sutra is the cultivation method of the Tianyi Sect. I was fortunate enough to cultivate this cultivation method back then, but without your permission, how could I easily teach it to others? Therefore, no one has cultivated the Xuanyuan Sutra before. "
Chen Nanfeng could not help but say anxiously, "Fellow Daoist Xia, this isn't appropriate! We have many years of experience in breaking through the Seven Stars Pavilion. This … Disciples who cultivate the Xuanyuan Sutra will have a much higher chance of obtaining the recognition of the Seven Stars Pavilion and improving their talent! If they enter the pavilion like this, I'm afraid it'll be difficult to obtain the recognition of the Artifact Spirit! Moreover, only cultivators who enter the Seven Stars Pavilion for the first time will have a chance to improve their talent. Even if they cultivate the Xuanyuan Sutra and enter later, they won't have a chance! "
Speaking of this, Chen Nanfeng said without hesitation, "Fellow Daoist Xia, I think it's better not to open the Seven Stars Pavilion for the time being! You can teach your friends the Xuanyuan Sutra first. This is not a precious cultivation method, so why do you have so many scruples? I don't think this cultivation technique is difficult to understand. I believe that in three to five days, everyone should be able to grasp the basics. At that time, you'll have a much higher chance of entering the Seven Stars Pavilion! "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Sect Leader Chen, there's no need to go through so much trouble. Anyway, whether or not you can improve your talent depends on your luck. I don't think the so-called increase probability is reliable. Let's just let everyone go in directly! "
Chen Nanfeng said anxiously, "Fellow Daoist Xia, after so many years, we've concluded that cultivating the Xuanyuan Sutra can indeed increase the probability of being recognized by the Seven Stars Pavilion's Artifact Spirit! Everyone only had one chance, so it was better to be cautious! Fellow Daoist Xia, please reconsider! "
Song Wei and the others also looked at Xia Ruofei, but they were not swayed by Chen Nanfeng's words. No matter what decision Xia Ruofei made, they would firmly support and execute it. Their trust in Xia Ruofei was unconditional.
Xia Ruofei pondered for a moment and said, "Then … Sect Leader Chen, I'll think about it again!"
Chen Nanfeng was indeed doing this for the good of Song Wei and the others. He really treated Xia Ruofei's matter as his own. Otherwise, he would not have mentioned the Xuanyuan Sutra at all, nor would he have taken the initiative to authorize Xia Ruofei to teach everyone the Xuanyuan Sutra.
In any case, he had opened the Seven Stars Pavilion this time for the sake of Xia Ruofei. As for how many people Xia Ruofei brought, how many people entered, and how many people could improve their talents, it was none of his business. Even if no one could successfully improve their talents, it was still Xia Ruofei's business. Moreover, in this matter, Xia Ruofei owed him a favor.
However, he also owed Xia Ruofei a favor, a big favor. Something like opening the Seven Stars Pavilion was naturally not enough to repay the favor he owed Xia Ruofei.
"Fellow Daoist Xia, you should think about it carefully!" Chen Nanfeng said, "We have many guest rooms here. Everyone can stay here for a few days. When you've mastered the Xuanyuan Sutra, you can enter the Seven Stars Pavilion. That'll be a wise move!"
"I'll think about it …" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
At this moment, Xia Ruofei's mental power had already probed the Seven Stars Pavilion in the center of the rear hall's garden. He directly transmitted his voice, "Senior Weapon Spirit! Senior Weapon Spirit! "
Xia Ruofei had refined the Seven Stars Token given to him by the weapon spirit, so his control over the Seven Stars Pavilion was actually much higher than Chen Nanfeng's. However, the weapon spirit had not completely acknowledged Xia Ruofei, so it was only the Seven Stars Token that recognized him as its master. The weapon spirit itself was not considered a master. It was just that Xia Ruofei could use the Seven Stars Token to control the Seven Stars Pavilion.
As for the weapon spirit, it was naturally inside the Seven Stars Pavilion.
Xia Ruofei could even guess the exact location of the weapon spirit. This was because after he refined the Seven Stars Token, he could already sense the situation inside the Seven Stars Pavilion. Moreover, this sense was much stronger and clearer than Chen Nanfeng's. However, there were still a few places that were shrouded in fog. Needless to say, those were definitely the places where the weapon spirit usually stayed.
Xia Ruofei shouted a few times through voice transmission but did not receive any response.
Xia Ruofei could not help but smile bitterly. 'Could this weapon spirit be asleep?' If that was the case, he really could not let Song Wei and the others enter the Seven Stars Pavilion now. This was because the innate talent of the Seven Stars Pavilion was actually controlled by the weapon spirit. If the weapon spirit was asleep, even if Song Wei and the others cultivated the Xuanyuan Sutra to the same level as Xia Ruofei, it would be useless.
Just as Xia Ruofei's thoughts were in a mess, the familiar voice of the weapon spirit sounded in his mind. The weapon spirit said lazily, "What are you doing? Can't you let me sleep properly? "
"Senior Weapon Spirit! I'm here to see you again! "Xia Ruofei hurriedly transmitted his voice.
The Artifact Spirit continued to speak in a lazy tone, "I know! You're the only one who can contact me directly through voice transmission … It's only been 2 years, right? Why are you here again? Have you changed your mind and want to take the Seven Stars Pavilion away? "
"No …" Xia Ruofei transmitted his voice awkwardly.
"Then why are you here? Don't tell me you want me to completely acknowledge you as my master? " "Your talent is not bad. In such a short period of time, you've made consecutive breakthroughs. You've reached the Nascent Soul Stage in your twenties. Even in the heyday of the Hundred Flowers Blossoming Age, your achievements are enough to make you stand out among the heroes. However … If you want me to acknowledge you as my master, it's still a little lacking! "
Xia Ruofei hurriedly transmitted his voice, "Senior Weapon Spirit, you've misunderstood. I definitely don't mean that! This time, I'm actually here to bring some of my disciples and friends to challenge the Seven Stars Pavilion! They're all very close to me, so … So … "
"So you want me to open a back door for you?" The weapon spirit asked, "Help you improve their talents, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes! They're all close to me recently. I hope that Senior Weapon Spirit can help me improve their talents as much as possible within your ability! I'll be eternally grateful! "Xia Ruofei hurriedly transmitted his voice.
The weapon spirit said lazily, "Little Xia, do you know that improving the talents of cultivators consumes a lot of energy for me and the Seven Stars Pavilion? You want me to improve so many people at once to the greatest extent that I can do it. Do you know how much energy this consumes?"
"This …" Xia Ruofei was at a loss for words.
Since the weapon spirit had said so, he could not ask for more. After all, if the consumption was too great, it would be detrimental to the Seven Stars Pavilion and the weapon spirit. How could he ask the weapon spirit to sacrifice himself to help Song Wei and the others?
However, Xia Ruofei thought about it on second thought. Almost every disciple of the Tianyi Sect had the opportunity to enter the Seven Stars Pavilion. Moreover, since only Chen Nanfeng could open and control the Seven Stars Pavilion, the Tianyi Sect would usually gather a group of people to open the Seven Stars Pavilion again. Among this group of disciples, many people had their talents improved. It was just that the improvement of each person's talents varied. Naturally, it was also a consumption for the Seven Stars Pavilion and the weapon spirit!
Moreover, this kind of consumption happened every year. Why did the weapon spirit still want to do this? It could have gone on strike, and the people of the Tianyi Sect could not do anything about it.
However, the weapon spirit did not do so.
The only explanation was that this kind of consumption could actually be replenished. Moreover, perhaps Chen Nanfeng's great consumption when he opened the Seven Stars Pavilion was actually absorbed by the Seven Stars Pavilion to replenish his own consumption.
Thinking of this, Xia Ruofei immediately said via voice transmission, "Senior Weapon Spirit, if you have any losses, I can compensate you. Please name a price. As long as I can afford it, I won't hesitate. However, it's not easy for my friends to get a chance to improve their talents. Please take care of them!"
"Wouldn't it have been fine if you had said so earlier?" The weapon spirit immediately said, "The compensation for the consumption is actually quite simple. The Primordial Qi of a Nascent Soul cultivator is the best tonic. Therefore, every time the Seven Stars Pavilion opens, I'll suck that Chen Nanfeng until he wants to die …"
Xia Ruofei could not help but break out in a sweat. The weapon spirit's words were quite vivid …
He could not help but silently sympathize with Chen Nanfeng.
However, his sympathy only lasted for a moment. He immediately said via voice transmission, "Senior Weapon Spirit, in that case, you can also absorb Chen Nanfeng's Primordial Qi as much as you want this time. He's also the one who opened the Seven Stars Pavilion this time!"
At this time, if he had to betray his teammates, he would do so. He must not be soft-hearted.
The weapon spirit said via voice transmission, 'What are you thinking, kid? In the past, when he opened the Seven Stars Pavilion, I only picked a few disciples who were pleasing to the eye and had a passable understanding of the Xuanyuan Sutra to improve their talents! How can there be consumption? This time, you're asking me to go all out and do my best to improve all your friends to the extreme. How can the consumption be the same? If I do this, how can I make any profit? '
Xia Ruofei almost burst out laughing. It turned out that every time Chen Nanfeng opened the Seven Stars Pavilion, the weapon spirit would also take the opportunity to absorb more Primordial Qi to replenish itself! It was treating improving the talents of the disciples of the Tianyi Sect as a business. No wonder the Tianyi Sect could make a long-term profit. Every time the Seven Stars Pavilion opened, the talents of some disciples could be improved.
However, since the weapon spirit had a clear request, it would be easy to handle.
Xia Ruofei did not hesitate to send a voice transmission, 'Then you can just absorb more. Anyway, Chen Nanfeng will be able to replenish his Primordial Qi after cultivating for a while …'
The weapon spirit also replied decisively, 'Don't even think about it! Most of your friends are at the Gold Core Stage, right? How many are there in total? Let me see … Five at the Gold Core Stage and one at the Qi Refining Stage, right? If I do my best to improve everyone's talents, how much will the consumption be? Chen Nanfeng only has so much Primordial Qi, so I can't really suck him dry! This business isn't profitable, so I won't do it! '
Xia Ruofei did not know whether to laugh or cry. It turned out that this weapon spirit would not act unless it saw a rabbit. It insisted that he also gave it some Primordial Qi.
However, in order to improve the talents of Song Wei and the others, Xia Ruofei naturally would not be stingy with some Primordial Qi. He directly sent a voice transmission, 'Senior Weapon Spirit, I'll also release some Primordial Qi for you to absorb. What do you think?'
'I've been waiting for you to say that!' The weapon spirit said with a smile, 'As long as there's enough Primordial Qi, there won't be a problem!'
'But Sect Leader Chen is controlling the Seven Stars Pavilion. If I release Primordial Qi into the Seven Stars Pavilion, will he notice it?' Xia Ruofei could not help but ask worriedly.
'You don't have to worry about that. With me around, how can he notice it?' The weapon spirit said indifferently.
Then, the weapon spirit immediately sent another voice transmission, 'However … It'll consume a lot of Primordial Qi to help you improve everyone's talents to the limit that I can improve. If the Primordial Qi of you and Chen Nanfeng combined isn't enough, then I can only improve less. In short, I'll do as much as I charge! '
Xia Ruofei secretly smiled bitterly. He thought to himself, 'Brother Weapon Spirit is really stingy! Is the consumption of Primordial Qi really that great to help people improve their talents? '
He could not help but feel that he was not confident enough. If his Primordial Qi was really not enough, would he not miss this good opportunity? Moreover, each person could only be improved once. Next time, even if he cultivated his Primordial Qi back and replenished it, it would be impossible for him to improve it again.
This was determined by the characteristics of the Seven Stars Pavilion and the physique of cultivators, and it was not something that the weapon spirit could change.
Xia Ruofei felt that he really could not take this risk.
Therefore, he was also a little troubled … However, an idea soon flashed in his mind, and he hurriedly sent a voice transmission, 'Senior Weapon Spirit, what if it's the essence liquid that's denser and purer than Primordial Qi? Can it work? '
'Can you directly export the essence liquid out of your body?' The weapon spirit's tone was full of disbelief, but he still said, 'Of course, the essence liquid is better! However, I highly suspect that you can't do it at all … '
Xia Ruofei chuckled and directly took out a bottle of essence liquid from the Ring-Tu space. However, he hid it in his palm and used his body to block it, ensuring that it would not be seen by others.
Then, he sent a voice transmission, 'Senior Weapon Spirit, please check the jade bottle in my hand.'
The weapon spirit was silent for a moment before exclaiming, 'F * ck … It's really essence liquid! And it's purified and pure essence liquid! You have a lot of good things on you! '
"Senior Weapon Spirit, do you think this essence liquid can replace Primordial Qi as compensation for you?" Xia Ruofei asked.
"That's great!" The weapon spirit did not hesitate to send a voice transmission. "Give me all of this bottle! I promise that I'll do my best to help your friend improve his talent within my ability. I won't cut corners in the slightest! You can rest assured! I swear on my honor as a weapon spirit that I'll do what I say! "
