Xiao Lingyu didn't care how much the gift would cost. He was only concerned about whether Elder Peng would agree or not. Of course, he was grateful that Qing Xuan spoke up for him.
Elder Peng hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Okay."
Xiao Lingyu quickly took out the Invisible Divine Robe that he obtained after killing Nie Yu and said, "Thank you, Elder Brother Peng."
Elder Peng sat down again and held the Invisible Divine Robe in his hand. After studying it for a long time, he said, "To repair this Invisible Divine Robe, you need a piece of Dark Shadow Cloud Stone and a piece of Space Element Demonic Beast's leather that is at least in the early stage of the Immortal Emperor Realm."
Xiao Lingyu was stunned when he heard this because he didn't have any of these two materials.
"Didn't you prepare the materials?" Qing Xuan asked with a frown when she saw Xiao Lingyu's awkward expression.
"I don't know what materials are needed. How can I prepare them?" Xiao Lingyu replied gloomily.
"Elder Peng, can you wait for a while and let Junior Brother Xiao prepare?" Qing Xuan also asked with some difficulty.
Old Peng's reputation in the Immortal World was extremely high. Even ordinary Immortal Venerables would be courteous to him. Moreover, most Immortal Venerables would owe him a favor. It wasn't easy for Qing Xuan to invite such a figure over. Moreover, she had to borrow the face of the Nan Hua Immortal Sect, a major sect in the Immortal World. It was even more commendable that Old Peng agreed to help twice.
Elder Peng was indeed a little unhappy at first, but after thinking for a while, he smiled and said, "It's okay. Sister Qing Xuan can go and prepare the materials. With the wealth and manpower of the Nan Hua Immortal Sect, it will take at most half a year to complete the task. I can drink with Junior Brother Xiao here while waiting."
Qing Xuan was puzzled by Elder Peng's words, but she didn't delay. She immediately went downstairs and began to arrange for people to gather the materials.
Qing Xuan was puzzled. It was clearly Junior Brother Xiao who wanted to repair the magic weapon. Why did Elder Peng ask her to gather the materials instead of letting Junior Brother Xiao do it himself? Could it be that Elder Peng purposely sent him away so that he could have something to say to Junior Brother Xiao?
Of course, Qing Xuan didn't have to run around collecting materials by herself, but she didn't go back to the fourth floor of the Nanhua Treasure Pavilion.
Xiao Lingyu also felt that it was a little strange, but since he didn't have to go out to collect materials and could even sit in his room and drink, he naturally didn't have much of an opinion.
After Qing Xuan left, Elder Peng invited Xiao Lingyu to sit across from him. Then, he took out two bottles of wine that Qing Xuan had given him and two large porcelain bowls.
It was the same place and the same drinks, but the person drinking was different. Xiao Lingyu's attitude and way of drinking were naturally different.
After filling the two bowls, Elder Peng asked, "Since there are no outsiders here, I have something I don't understand. Brother Xiao, can you tell me the truth?"
Xiao Lingyu knew that this old guy had something to say to him, but since he had a favor to ask, he could only nod and reply, "Brother Peng, just ask. I'll tell you everything I know!"
Elder Peng nodded in satisfaction and asked, "Brother, do you also have the Divine Fire?"
Xiao Lingyu didn't hesitate and replied, "Yes."
As he spoke, Xiao Lingyu spread out his palm, and a flaming orange of Primordial True Fire appeared in his palm.
Elder Peng's eyes shone brightly. He squinted for a moment and said with certainty, "This isn't the Divine Fire!"
Xiao Lingyu's heart skipped a beat. All the experts who had seen the Primordial True Fire would mistake it for the Divine Fire. Could this old guy see some clues?
"But its power is comparable to the Divine Fire!"
Elder Peng added. He also spread out his palm, and a blue flaming orange appeared in his palm.
The two flaming oranges weren't far from each other, and they seemed to be able to sense each other. They both jumped unsteadily, as if they were planning to compete.
The two of them put away their flames at the same time. Elder Peng continued, "Brother Xiao's flame has a primitive aura. It should be a kind of Origin Flame, and there's a lot of room for growth. However, there's an evil aura in this flame, as if it's been infected by demonic power. It's just like the aura that Brother Xiao's body exudes. There should be some secret to this, right?"
Xiao Lingyu thought for a moment and said, "When I was free, I studied some demonic cultivation methods. It might be because of this."
Elder Peng smiled and said, "I didn't expect Brother Xiao to have the interest to study demonic cultivation methods."
Xiao Lingyu could tell that Elder Peng didn't believe his answer, but he couldn't explain it in detail. He only said vaguely, "Before I ascended, I had a lot of dealings with demonic cultivators. I felt that demonic cultivation methods had many merits, so I studied them."
Elder Peng first clinked his wine bowl with Xiao Lingyu's. After drinking a bowl of wine, he said, "Brother Xiao, you must have just joined the Nanhua Immortal Sect not long ago, right?"
Xiao Lingyu nodded.
Elder Peng smiled and suddenly said meaningfully, "It seems that an independent space has just appeared in the spatial barrier between the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm."
Xiao Lingyu couldn't help but frown when he heard this. He thought that this old man must have noticed something.
Elder Peng said again, "Brother Xiao, I don't have any other intentions, and I don't intend to get to the bottom of things. So, I hope Brother Xiao can tell me some things frankly. This old man can swear to the heavens that I absolutely have no intention of exposing Brother Xiao's background or harming Brother Xiao."
Xiao Lingyu said calmly, "What does Elder Peng want to know?"
Old Peng said, "I can see that Little Brother is able to control this flame at will, so I'm sure that Little Brother didn't obtain this flame from elsewhere, but cultivated it yourself. I want to know how Little Brother managed to cultivate this flame? Brother Xiao's energy is special and can be concealed a lot, but Brother Xiao can see that it's not as simple as studying demonic cultivation methods. You were originally a demonic cultivator. If I'm not wrong, Brother Xiao must have just snuck into the Immortal Realm from the Demon Realm. So, I want to know some things about the Demon Realm from Brother Xiao. "
"Brother Xiao's eyes are as sharp as torches, so accurate!"
Xiao Lingyu smiled bitterly as he praised, and then he said, "How I cultivated this flame is related to my cultivation technique, and it's one of my greatest secrets. I'm unable to tell Brother Xiao about it in detail, so I hope Brother Xiao can understand. As for the situation in the Demon Realm, I really do know a little about it. I'll do my best to answer Brother Xiao's questions."
Elder Peng sighed as well and said, "I've been constantly traveling throughout the Immortal Realm for many years because I wanted to use my divine flame to sense the existence of the flame. Unfortunately, I've been unable to obtain the fortune. I originally thought that there would be hope when I saw Brother Xiao today, so I asked. Since it's inconvenient for Brother Xiao to tell me, then I won't force you. As for the Demon Realm, I only want to know two things. The first is that there was an invincible Devil Exalt that roamed freely through the three dimensions in the past, and he was sealed by the Exalt Rank experts of the three dimensions all those years ago. How is he now? The second is, does the Demon Realm have a Great Grandmaster in refining tools or alchemy? "
Xiao Lingyu thought carefully for a moment and replied, "Brother Xiao's first question, I actually know a little about it. That Devil Exalt has already broken out of the seal and is currently recovering his strength. He should be able to recover his strength in a million years. As for Brother Xiao's second question, I really don't know. In any case, when I was in the Demon Realm, I've never seen or heard of a Great Grandmaster in refining tools or alchemy."
In the Immortal Realm, Devil Realm, and Demon Realm, to be called a Great Grandmaster, one must have the ability to refine divine items. For example, Elder Peng had refined divine items. Although it was only a low-grade divine item, he could still be called a Great Grandmaster in refining tools.
"Can he recover in a million years?"
Elder Peng slightly frowned, and seemed to be worried as he said, "Within a million years, a passage-like spatial crack will appear in the space barrier between the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm. If he really recovers his strength, then I'm afraid a great calamity will appear in both the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm."
"Elder Peng, do you have enmity with him?" Xiao Lingyu asked curiously.
"Haha, I have no enmity with him. Back then, I was just a nobody. If I had enmity with him, wouldn't I have died long ago?"
Elder Peng shook his head and replied, and then he said, "Even though there's no enmity between us, he seized a treasure from my Master when he arrived at the Immortal Dimension all those years ago, and it was precisely because of that treasure that my Master perished from the Divine Tribulation. However, his old family instructed me that I must seize that treasure back."
Xiao Lingyu didn't know how to respond, and could only drink.
However, Elder Peng continued to explain, "It's precisely because of this that I really want to obtain an Origin Flame and merge my Divine Flame into it to increase its might. Only in this way would I have a chance to defeat that Demon Sovereign and fulfill Master's last wish. Moreover, I only have a million years left."
Xiao Lingyu said, "There are very few Origin Flames to begin with. Moreover, they're hidden very deeply. Even if you find one, it's very difficult to restrain it. Moreover, even if Elder Brother manages to capture an Origin Flame and successfully merge your Divine Flame into it, it'll still be very difficult for Elder Brother to control it at will, right?"
Elder Peng shook his head and said, "So long as you can find an Origin Flame, the other problems aren't a problem. For refinement experts like us who have reached the grandmaster level, which one of us isn't an expert in controlling fire?"
Xiao Lingyu drank another bowl of wine and said, "Actually, I have some enmity with that Demon Sovereign. It's even to the extent that in a million years, either he or I will die!"
"Oh? Why is that? Tell me about it. "Elder Peng seemed to be very curious as well.
"When he broke out of the seal, he split his Life Essence into many portions. One of them invaded my body. I have to cultivate to the Exalt Realm before he recovers his strength and erase his Life Imprint. Otherwise, I have to kill him when the time comes. Otherwise, everything I obtained from cultivation will be taken away by him." Xiao Lingyu explained truthfully.
It was exactly because he felt that Elder Peng wasn't lying and felt that there was no need for Elder Peng to lie to him, that Xiao Lingyu spoke truthfully.
