Zhang Yan asked, "What is the name of this treasure that Dean Qu spoke of?"
Qu Gongtan said, "This water is called 'Hun Huan'. According to Dean Chen's idea, any treasure refined from the five elements can be dissolved upon contact with it."
Zhang Yan thought for a moment. If it really was that powerful, then he had to refine it no matter what. The Mountain and Sea Realm was boundless, and there were countless spiritual items and treasures. The Nine Continents couldn't compare to it. If he spent some effort, he would definitely be able to find something suitable. He asked, "What is the method to refine this treasure?" “
Qu Gongtan said, "I've already memorized it. I can write it down."
Zhang Yan was noncommittal and said, "Did Dean Chen leave a letter back then?"
Qu Gongtan said, "Headmaster Chen left behind a jade scroll, which was previously kept in the Bao Yang Courtyard's Offering Pavilion. Before the realm was moved, it was sent to the small realm of the Daylight Temple to avoid losing it. If Zhenren wants to take a look, I can go take a look later."
Zhang Yan thought for a moment and said, "There is no need. Headmaster Qu, please wait here for a moment." He took out a talisman and passed it to Jing You, saying, "Take this to zhenren Huo."
Dean Chen was a member of the Chen Clan. The method to refine the treasure had never been given to the clan, so it was his own. Even though Huo Xuan could order the Chen Clan to give it to him, it would be difficult for Huo Xuan to do this outside of the Daylight Temple. The talisman contained a strand of Pure Violet Spirit. Exchanging a precious treasure for a treasure that no one had been able to refine for thousands of years wasn't a bad deal.
Jing You accepted the order and left. A short while later, he returned and said, "Master, I've brought the jade slip back."
As he spoke, he took out a jade slip from his sleeve and placed it on the table.
Zhang Yan looked at it and saw that the jade slip was three inches wide. It was more than two feet long, and there were several mysterious etchings on it. It looked simple and heavy.
Jing You cupped his hands, "Master. "Master, this is a secret seal of the Chen Clan. Only those with the bloodline of the clan can undo it. Hall Master Huo heard that Old Master needed it, so he asked Perfected Chen Feng to come over. Just Now, he has returned to his original appearance. "
Qu Gongtan was also taken aback when he heard this. As the monastery head, he did not know that there were other mysteries in the jade strip. In other words, it was very likely that what he knew was not only incomplete. Or there may be mistakes in it.
Thinking of this, he frowned.
Zhang Yan was not surprised by this at all and had even expected it. He had started from an inconspicuous lower house disciple and cultivated step by step to where he was today. He was well aware that many cultivators would set up such arrangements. It was not only the people of aristocratic families, but many masters and disciples would do the same. This was to prevent their secret techniques from being leaked, and at the same time, it was to prevent them from being easily obtained by other sects.
He flicked his finger at the jade slip. A ray of light shot up from the sky and turned into a screen of light. Densely packed words appeared on it.
He took a closer look. According to Dean Chen's description, as long as he gathered all the precious materials and refined this water, and there was enough of it, he could indeed break through the Death Evaluation Pagoda in one go.
However, this treasure had a flaw. After the water was used, it would return to nothingness. If he wanted to use it again, he would need to refine it again.
And the precious materials needed to refine it were all extremely rare. Obviously, it could not be used as an ordinary Dharma treasure. It could only be used as a trump card at a critical moment.
But then again. As long as he defeated the Heavenly Ghost Tribe, at least the East, North, and West continents would no longer be a threat. At that time, there would be no precious materials that could not be found, and he would not need to care about this.
He waved his sleeve and sent the jade strip to Qu Gongtan, saying, "Dean Qu, is there anything else that needs to be added?"
Qu Gongtan took a step forward and took it. After a few glances, a bitter smile appeared on his face. Compared to what he had seen before, not only were there many more precious materials, but even the refining method was more detailed and complicated than before. He could not help but blame this senior of his.
If he only used the description he provided and refined countless precious materials to refine a pile of useless things, he feared that he would not be able to explain himself even if he had to sacrifice his life.
However, the refining method of today was also much more brilliant than it was thousands of years ago. He carefully considered for a moment and also made a few pertinent suggestions.
Zhang Yan said, "The refining of the treasure will be arranged by Dean Qu. As for the precious materials, the sect will find a way to gather them."
Qu Gongtan said, "Then I will immediately start preparing after I return."
Zhang Yan thought that many of the precious materials used to refine the "Hun Huan" were taken from ancient plants. After ordering Qu Gongtan to leave, he left the hall and went to an island in the Cold Jade Sea Province.
This was where the Danding Courtyard was today. Although the Qincang School had been established here for less than ten years, the island was already full of strange flowers and plants, and there were even many plant spirits that looked like naughty children playing there.
When Zhang Yan came over, there was a magnificent aura descending. These spirits were all startled, and they all burrowed into the ground, or retracted their branches, or curled up their bodies, not daring to show themselves again. Several mountain tops became bare in the blink of an eye.
Zhou Chongju was walking in the medicine garden when he noticed the movement. He looked up at the sky and said with a smile, "It turns out that Junior Brother is here."
Zhang Yan slowly descended, cupped his fists, and said, "Senior Brother." He turned to look and saw two young men standing in the distance. Their gazes were filled with curiosity and respect. He smiled and asked, "Are those the two new disciples I've taken in? “
Zhou Chongju smiled and said, "That's right, these two are Zhang Xuanlan and Sheng Chengxiao, they both cultivate Jade Heaven Sect's techniques." He called out, "This is your martial uncle, why aren't you coming forward to greet him?"
The two young people heard this and quickly came forward, bowed, and said, "Greetings, Martial Uncle."
Zhou Chongju stroked his beard and nodded. Although these two disciples were under his tutelage, even if they didn't care about Zhang Yan's face, they still had to take into account Hall Master Du Zhen's identity, so they were only counted as his grand-disciples in name.
Zhang Yan nodded slightly. He flicked his finger, and two spiritual lights flew into the eyebrows of the two and said, "Since you are under Master Zhou's tutelage, I will give each of you a treasure. After you cultivate the Mysterious Light, you can refine it."
The two young people were pleasantly surprised and bowed to thank him.
Zhou Chongju saw that the two of them were trembling slightly. He knew that even if Zhang Yan had restrained his aura, it would still be difficult for them to stand firmly in front of him with their cultivation. He said, "The two of you can leave first."
The two young people bowed respectfully, then left.
Zhou Chongju asked, "Junior Brother, you are taking charge of the situation on behalf of the Sect Leader. What brings you here today?"
Zhang Yan explained the reason for his visit, and then said, "Junior Brother, I've been thinking about it for a while. Since I can find more than half of the plants and vegetation from the Mountain and Sea Realm, I've come to see if I can find some that I can use."
Zhou Chongju stroked his beard and said, "Although I'm not an expert in equipment forging, when I was young, I thought that I was more talented than others, so I dabbled in the Dao. I know that when it comes to forging items, precious materials are the result of careful deliberation. If I were to hastily change them, they might not be completely useless, but there would definitely be some discrepancies. Since I originally used materials from the Nine Continents, I might not be able to use the plants and vegetation from the Mountain and Sea Realm."
"Oh," Zhang Yan said, "from what you're saying, Senior Brother, you seem to have some other method?"
Zhou Chongju laughed. "I don't have any other method, but if I could get my hands on ancient plants and vegetation from the Nine Continents, then I wouldn't need to replace them with items from the Mountain and Sea Realm."
Zhang Yan was surprised. "I heard that those ancient plants and vegetation have long since gone extinct. Could it be that Senior Brother has some left behind?"
Zhou Chongju laughed. "Junior Brother, back when you were in the Pill Cauldron Courtyard, you knew that I loved collecting exotic plants and flowers. I found quite a few that had gone extinct in ancient times, but most of them had already turned into wood and stone. Although they looked dead, they still contained life force within them. With enough spiritual opportunity to nourish them for a few dozen years, they would come back to life. I had originally planned to wait until the sect had rid itself of its external enemies before making the necessary arrangements. But since Junior Brother is in a hurry, I might as well do it first."
Zhang Yan was a bit surprised that the matter had been resolved so easily. Just Now he knew that in order to raise such plants and vegetation, the amount of spiritual opportunity required would be enough to support several Daoists of the Heavenly Abode. No wonder he had been unable to grow them in the Nine Continents. But now that he was in the Mountain and Sea Realm, where spiritual opportunity was almost limitless, there were no such restrictions. "I'll have to trouble you with this, Senior Brother," he said.
Zhou Chongju said, "It is my duty to help the sect."
Zhang Yan came out of the Pill Cauldron Courtyard, but he was not in a hurry to go beyond the Heavens. At this moment, there was still one more thing he needed to do. Right now, there was still a Demonic Forefather lingering above the Northern Heaven Frigid Abyss. If he did not deal with it, he would not be at ease to leave. So he soared up into the sky and arrived outside the Qi barrier. He silently circulated his energy and looked around.
Ten days later, he found his target. With a step, a clear light flashed, and he flew in that direction.
At this time, Demonic Forefather Gou Yue was on a cliff cultivating her Qi and blood. Suddenly, she felt an incomparably tyrannical aura coming towards her. If her senses were right, it should be the person who had captured Flaming Mane Ghost Forefather.
She was shocked and wanted to retreat, but the other party's aura was firmly locked in place. There was no way to escape. All she could do was stand in place and not move.
After a short while, a grand clear light fell, and a handsome black-robed Daoist walked out. He glanced at her indifferently and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist."
Demonic Forefather Gou Yue calmed her mind and returned the greeting with the clan's etiquette. Then, she asked with a slight vigilance, "What is the matter?"
Zhang Yan walked a few steps to the edge of the cliff. He looked at the rainbow clouds in the western sky and stood there with his sleeves behind his back, saying, "If it's at least a few decades, if it's at most a hundred years, the cultivators of the nine continents will have a battle with the Heavenly Ghost Tribe. Which side will you stand on?"
Demonic Forefather Gou Yue was silent for a while, but she did not answer this question. Instead, she asked, "How is Flaming Mane Ghost Forefather?"
Zhang Yan said, "So that Heavenly Ghost is called Flaming Mane. He has been killed by I."
Demonic Forefather Gou Yue's body trembled. She said, "Ghost Forefather has an indestructible body …"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "There will always be a day when Heaven and Earth will die. This person hasn't even left this world, so how can he be indestructible?"
Demonic Forefather Gou Yue sighed faintly and said, "I didn't make things difficult for your people."
Zhang Yan said indifferently, "If not, I wouldn't have come to talk to Fellow Daoist today. The sects of the nine continents will not leave our enemies outside. Fellow Daoist can decide whether to fight or to make peace."
