Qin Di wanted to send his avatar to Sanqing Land, but he could not leave at the moment.
Although he had eight clones, every one of them was busy with their tasks.
Qin Wen's clone was one of the seventy-two great physicians of the Tianconfucian Sect. He was also responsible for training the disciples of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion. Before the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion found a new Grandmaster of Immortal Runes, he couldn't easily leave.
Qin Qiong's clone was cultivating the Yin and Yang Creation Scripture, studying the Yin and Yang Creation Cardinal of Heaven and Earth with his master, Yaoji.
Avatar Qin Mu, Qin Jin, Qin Huo, Qin Shui, and the main body Qin Di were cultivating the Five Thunder Formation. This was the key to forming the chaos divine thunder, so they could not be distracted.
Avatar Qin Ku was cultivating the Four Elements of Emptiness and Sanskrit Mantra. He was also very busy.
In comparison, only avatar Shi Cang was free.
Ever since he joined hands with Shi Kuang and created the Seven Treasure Flower of Supreme Sound, both master and disciple had great improvements.
On this day, he could not help but ask Shi Kuang, "Master, you are already a level eight Sengoku. Why are you staying in Supreme Palace Enclosure and working for the Jade Emperor? The Jade Emperor does not have a good reputation. Disciple will not hide it from you. I support the five old Celestial Emperors, so I do not want to work for the Celestial Court. "
He had always wanted to ask this question because if Shi Kuang did not leave Supreme Palace Enclosure, he would be restricted by the Jade Emperor. If it was always like this, then he, Qin Di, would not only use the Phoenix Zither to show off his prowess and kill everyone, but he also did not want to bring disaster to his master.
He did not want to stand on the opposite side of his master. Shi Kuang was the Jade Emperor's subordinate. This made him feel awkward.
Shi Kuang smiled bitterly, "You think I want to see the Jade Emperor's arrogant face? He sits high up in the Numinous Sky Hall, and the moment he opens his mouth, 'Clairaudient, listen carefully, what happened in the lower bound'? That feeling is like calling for a servant! When I hear that voice, my heart aches.
I'm the Celestial Music Sect's Sect Leader, and I can be considered a grandmaster. I'm a person with dignity!
I don't want to work for the Celestial Court, but the power of the Celestial Court is too great. I shoulder the heavy responsibility of the Celestial Music Sect's Sect Master. If I go against the Jade Emperor, it will bring pressure to the Celestial Music Sect. "
Qin Di probed, "Master, if I may be so bold as to ask, why don't you resign from your position as the Immortal Music Sect's sect master and head to the Sanqing realm to cultivate?"
Shi Kuang replied, "Of course I want to go to the Sanqing region. But I've heard that the Sanqing region is filled with killings. If you move there, you'll face severe challenges. I was only a Rank Six Sengoku back then, and I wasn't absolutely confident that I could establish myself in the High Clarity Realm. Now that I'm an eighth-order Sengoku, I should be able to stand firm in the Shang Qing Region.
However, before leaving this place, Master has two things to do. First, I'm preparing to hand over most of the sect master's responsibilities and let the Immortal Music Sect's elders share the daily management for me. I can then head to the Sanqing region.
Second, I still want to upgrade the zither in my hands. Currently, I'm still using a Rank Seven zither. I need to upgrade it to Rank Eight before I have sufficient confidence.
Speaking of the zither, Master wants to ask you, these days, when I see you playing immortal music, you're using a Rank Five immortal zither and not the Phoenix Zither from before? Why is that? That Phoenix Zither of yours is of excellent quality. Could it be that it was unfortunately destroyed? That's truly a pity. "
Qin Di smiled and said, "Master, I've put away the Phoenix Zither. I'm the same as you, thinking of ways to let it advance! "
Honestly speaking, ever since the Phoenix Zither advanced to a mystic divine artifact, he did not dare to take it out to perform!
A divine artifact carried heavenly might. It could only be taken out at critical times to kill people and save lives. How could it be easily displayed?
Moreover, Shi Kuang was using a Rank Seven immortal zither. How could Qin Di take out a divine artifact? Wouldn't that be slapping Master's face?
Shi Kuang frowned and said, "Immortal zithers are different from other immortal artifacts. They are too delicate and too weak. It's very difficult to advance them. The zither I often use is called the Soul Severing Zither. Its material is very good. Do you know how it came about? "
"Master, did you buy it?"
"One year, the Middle Heaven North Pole Great Emperor Zi Wei was celebrating his birthday. He specially invited me to perform an immortal song. The birthday was very lively. Many immortal emperors went to congratulate him. The Great Emperor was very happy and gave me a piece of Soul Returning Wood. "
"Soul Returning Wood? What rank is that immortal wood? "
"According to the Great Emperor, a long time ago, the Soul Returning Wood was a divine tree. Its rank was equivalent to a Rank Fourteen immortal emperor. It grew luxuriantly and was thousands of feet tall. Because the Celestial Court decreed that all divine trees needed to be cut down, it was cut down by the Great Emperor Zi Wei.
The Great Emperor kept the trunk of the Soul Returning Tree. He didn't use it for many years, so he gave me a piece.
Later, I used that piece of Soul Returning Wood to make the zither's surface. I then used Celestial Silk to make the zither strings and made the immortal artifact 'Soul Severing Zither'!
What a pity! All these years, the zither strings I used were Celestial Silk. But the Celestial Silkworms advanced too slowly! I spent a lot of effort to nurture a Rank Seven Celestial Silkworm! I might not be able to nurture a Rank Nine Celestial Silkworm until the end of time. This severely limited the zither's advancement. Just thinking about it gives me a headache. "
Qin Di suddenly said, "Master, I can get better zither strings!"
"What kind of zither strings?" Shi Kuang didn't mind. He had tried many immortal materials and found that the best was Celestial Silk. He didn't believe that Qin Di could get better zither strings.
Qin Di said, "I want to use metal silk to make zither strings!"
Shi Kuang quickly waved his hand. "No! I tried it in the past. I invited a Rank Six Immortal Artifact Craftsman to refine gold silk to make zither strings. In the end, I spent ten years and still failed. For this, I spent a lot of Celestial Stones! "
Qin Di smiled. "Master, I will show you my skills. I will make zither strings in front of you!"
"You're not joking, right? When did you learn how to forge artifacts? "
"Master, watch carefully!"
Qin Di took out a lump of Divine Gold. He stretched out his hands and slowly pulled the Divine Gold into thin threads. In a short while, he made seven zither strings!
"Master, try it. If the tone is not right, you can adjust it at any time!"
Shi Kuang looked at Qin Di pulling the threads as if it was as easy as pulling noodles. He couldn't help but feel surprised.
"Eh? You really know how to forge artifacts? When did you learn this Kung Fu? "
Shi Kuang didn't know the origin of this lump of Divine Gold. He also didn't know how much effort Qin Di had spent to forge this lump of Divine Gold. First, there were the 50 Star Forging Techniques. Then, there was the repeated tempering of Divine Water and Divine Fire. Finally, there was the test of 18 Divine Thunder of Metal. This wasn't something an ordinary Immortal Artifact Craftsman could do!
He only saw Qin Di pull a lump of shiny metal into seven thin threads and hand it to him.
Shi Kuang held the seven thin threads in his hand and shook them gently. He looked at them from beginning to end. He was doubtful and asked, "Can this kind of metal silk be used to make zither strings? Disciple, don't try to fool me! "
Qin Di smiled. "Master, if you don't try, how will you know whether it is good or bad?"
Shi Kuang gently pulled the Divine Gold Silk and then flicked it with his finger. "It is much harder than Celestial Silk. In my opinion, it won't work."
Although he said that, he still started. He took off the Celestial Silk that was tied to the zither and replaced it with the thinnest metal silk.
After that, he gently plucked the zither strings, which made a crisp and sweet sound!
Shi Kuang's eyes lit up. "Eh, this sound is not bad!"
As he spoke, he hurriedly twisted the remaining six strings on the zither.
Then, he tested the sound of each string. Some were crisp, some were heavy. Every string made a different sound. It had all the qualities of Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zhi and Yu!
Shi Kuang's eyes became brighter and brighter. "I didn't expect metal silk to have such a sound quality. I feel that there is a lot of hope. Disciple, are you better than a Level Six Immortal Artifact Craftsman?"
As the sound of the zither continued to resound, he became more and more excited. As he adjusted the tension of the strings, he listened attentively to the timbre and intonation. After a long while, he finally said, "There are two strings that I'm not too satisfied with, but the other five are basically passable."
Qin Di asked him to take off the two strings, knead them into a ball, and start to rewire them.
The master and disciple repeatedly tested and improved. They took off the zither strings again and again and reinstalled them. The sound of the zither became better and better. It was like the endless gurgling of spring water in the mountains!
Shi Kuang's eyes lit up. His white face turned red and the beard on his chin trembled!
"This metal silk is much better than the Celestial Silk! Disciple, how did you get such rare Celestial Metal? Where did you get it? If I knew there was such a thing, I would be willing to exchange it with the other party even if I had to give up everything! "
Qin Di smiled. "Master, this is no longer Celestial Metal. It has surpassed the ninth grade of the Immortal Level. It can be said to be Divine Metal."
Shi Kuang was shocked. "Divine Metal? Is this Divine Metal? I heard that you can only pick up one or two pieces of Divine Metal when you go to Mount Tenbara! Which ancestor gave this to you? Or did you sleepwalk to Mount Tenbara? "
"Master, disciple just happened to get a piece of Divine Metal! I have never been to Mount Tenbara. I haven't even been to the Sanqing Realm. I want to go to the Tai Qing Realm and the Shang Qing Realm with you! "
Three days later, the zither strings were completely tuned. The tone was perfect without a single flaw.
The Soul Severing Zither made a clanging sound and the artifact spirit appeared. "Master, I have been reborn and become a peak ninth grade immortal artifact! If there is divine lightning, I have 90% confidence that I can upgrade it to a yellow-grade immortal artifact. "
Shi Kuang's hands and feet trembled. His half-closed eyes became moist.
"Ninth grade immortal artifact? What a treasure! This is what I have been dreaming of! "
He gently plucked the zither strings. Sword qi shot out and shaved off layer after layer of the mountains thousands of miles away!
Shi Kuang was full of praise. "With such a treasure, why would I be afraid of challenges? Who cares if it is Sengoku? Even if it is an ordinary Immortal Emperor, I am not afraid! "
Qin Di opened his mouth and wanted to say something but held it back in the end.
He wanted to say, "Master, I can help you upgrade the Celestial Zither to a divine artifact!"
