Every fifty years, the Heaven and Earth Mortal List would be announced. It was usually the prelude to the battle between the three sects. Usually, the rogue cultivators on the list would be accepted by the three sects as guest elders or consecrators.
Hong Luanjing, as the previous Heaven and Earth Ranking's number one, had no reason to not want to maintain her position. And Yi Tian was able to cooperate with her because of this weakness of hers.
Actually, in Zhao Yang City's Alchemy Pavilion, Hong Luanjing's title as the number one refiner in the Western Desolation Jin Dan was definitely strong on the outside but weak on the inside. She did not live up to her name.
Back in the Alchemy Pavilion, he had appraised her work and concluded that it was not innovative enough and its functions were not strong. Hong Luanjing had been immersed in refining for many years, but she still lacked creativity. Furthermore, she had limited refining diagrams and was unable to innovate. It would not be easy for her to maintain her position in the next Heaven and Earth Ranking.
On the contrary, he had heard news of Huo Chi Lian over the years. He had an inextricable relationship with the Li Fire Sect, but he could not confirm if he was a friend or foe. After all, the Li Fire Sect in the Central State had many branches, and none of them recognized each other's orthodox position. Yi Tian did not want to get involved in this mess for the time being.
But during the competition, Huo Chi Lian's skills had already shocked everyone. The Five Elements Sword Array diagrams that he refined were originally what Yi Tian wanted to refine. Fortunately, there was a mistake and he changed his mind midway. If not, what would others think if their refining diagrams were the same?
At least, Yi Tian believed that Zheng Rutong would be the first to not let him off. When that happened, it would be harder to escape the control of the Immortal Sword Sect.
Shan Jian City's' You Are Coming 'was originally a black market business. At this moment, there was a shop assistant on the second floor leading Yi Tian and Hong Luanjing to the second floor corridor.
Looking down, the first floor's hall looked like a market. In the middle, there was a square counter. Inside, there were shop assistants who were busy dealing with the customers who came up to find treasures. The surrounding area was surrounded by small rooms, which were used by the cultivators who sold the goods to discuss business.
Yi Tian walked around the second floor for a while and realized that the All-Seer Luo Geng's pointer had been pointing straight at a room on the second floor ever since he entered. Even after going upstairs, no matter how he changed directions, the pointer was still locked in that direction.
When the three of them passed by the room, the needle gently trembled a few times. Yi Tian silently put Luo Geng away. He then stopped the waiter who was leading the way and pointed at the room. "Is there anyone here? Can we go in? "
The shop assistant leading the way was stunned for a moment before he hurriedly replied, "There is a senior Jin Dan here discussing the goods. Please follow me."
Hong Luanjing also looked at Yi Tian with a puzzled expression. After receiving the sound transmission, her eyes lit up and she looked at the room. Then, she followed him as if nothing had happened.
When the two of them entered a room on the opposite side, a Jin Dan cultivator wearing the uniform of a shopkeeper was already waiting for them. After the three of them greeted each other, Hong Luanjing went forward and said that she wanted to purchase some high grade materials. Then, she began to chat with the shopkeeper.
Yi Tian locked his Divine Sense onto the room. He had finally found the whereabouts of the Azure Ice Crystal. This time, he couldn't leave empty-handed.
Half an hour later, there was suddenly movement from the room on the opposite side. A Masked Shuke walked out. His cultivation was around the early Jin Dan stage. Yi Tian quietly took out the Luo Geng Compass and scanned it with his Divine Sense. The pointer was still trembling. The item should be on this person.
Estimating that this person didn't have a smooth time selling the goods, Yi Tian hastily stood up and sent a sound transmission to Hong Luanjing before hastily walking out.
When he stepped out of the room and arrived at the corridor, he just happened to bump into the Masked Shuke. Yi Tian hastily walked over and secretly sent a sound transmission. "Fellow Daoist, please wait. I want to ask Fellow Daoist about something."
A moment later, the person frowned. Perhaps the transaction just now wasn't satisfactory. At this moment, someone had appeared out of nowhere, causing him to have a lingering fear. They stopped in their tracks and used their divine sense to sweep over the other party. Only then did they let out a sigh of relief. The one who spoke was a cultivator dressed like a scholar. Although they didn't know whether or not he had any ill intentions, everyone still maintained the necessary restraint when there was a guest.
Yi Tian saw that there was hope and said, "Fellow Daoist, can I have a word with you?"
The bearded man nodded his head and pointed to an empty room at the side. Yi Tian understood and directly threw ten spirit stones to the young manservant. Then, he walked in with large strides.
After the two of them entered the house, Yi Tian closed the door and waved his hand to open a soundproof barrier.
The Masked Shuke wasn't polite. He directly found a seat and asked, "You want to ask me what I want to buy? Let's make it clear first. If the price is lower than this, then there's no need to talk. "
Yi Tian smiled and sat across from him. Then he said, "I am Yi Tian, a tool refiner. May I know your name?"
"Jiang Zongqin." The Masked Shuke replied.
After laughing, Yi Tian knew that he had to quickly get to the point. Then he asked, "Fellow Daoist Jiang only came here to sell loose goods. I specialize in buying rare materials. If Fellow Daoist is interested, please don't hesitate to ask."
Jiang Zongqin looked up and down at Yi Tian and said, "You tool refiners are all rich. Moreover, if you want to buy materials, why don't you look for the shopkeeper who has' customers'?"
"I have a friend who is in contact with the shopkeeper. I just happened to meet Fellow Daoist Jiang, so I took the liberty to ask."
Jiang Zongqin frowned and said, "I don't think it's presumptuous. Tell me, how do you know I have something you're interested in."
This question wasn't easy to answer. Yi Tian knew that if he made the other party suspicious, then the following matter wouldn't be easy to handle. After a flash of inspiration appeared in his mind, he smiled and said, "I have a spirit pet, Treasure Seeking Mouse. Just now, it had a slight reaction to Fellow Daoist Jiang, so I came to try my luck."
His words reduced the other party's suspicion by a lot. After a while, Jiang Zongqin slowly relaxed his nervous mood. He took out some materials from his storage bracelet and placed them on the table. Then he said, "Take a look at these things. See if there's anything you like."
To be honest, when he took out the materials, Yi Tian could roughly determine the value of these materials after using his Divine Sense. He even used his Eye Technique to look at some ores. Then he pointed at a few complete beast teeth and raw ores. Then he silently sent a voice transmission.
When Jiang Zongqin heard the price, his face still didn't show any expression, but his eyes were slightly spirited. This price could be considered fair. It was about 20% to 30% higher than the price of 'there's a customer'. The two immediately reached an agreement.
In fact, these goods were only worth about 200,000 spirit stones. Yi Tian also knew that if he didn't deal with the things in front, there was no need to talk about the business behind. This kind of method was commonly used by suppliers like them. Fortunately, these things could still be used after refining. At least if they were refined into some level 4 spirit tools or level 5 semi-finished products, they could still be sold to 'Alchemy Pavilion'.
After dealing with the things in front, Yi Tian smiled and said, "I wonder if Fellow Daoist Jiang has any rare materials on him. Can you sell them to me? Please don't worry about the price. I won't let you suffer a loss."
After hearing this, Jiang Zongqin hesitated for a moment and said, "I see that Fellow Daoist is a person with some wealth. I wonder if I can only exchange these two things for level 5 spirit tools."
In terms of level 5 spirit tools, Yi Tian had a few on him. However, he only had the newly refined Flame Emblem Shield and the Soul Suppressing Gong for defense.
In particular, the Soul Suppressing Gong was an upgrade from Xiang Yang's spirit tool. Not only could it be used as a defensive spirit tool, but it could also use sound waves to confuse people's minds. It could be considered a level 5 spirit tool that was both offensive and defensive.
Then Yi Tian clenched his teeth and nodded, indicating for the other party to take out the items.
A blue light flashed and a fist-sized ore and a section of a demon beast's bone appeared on the table.
Yi Tian used his divine sense to scan the ore. The surface of the ore was emitting bits of blue starlight, turning it into a sky blue color. There were also traces of cold air leaking out from the surroundings. This should be the raw ore of the Azure Ice Crystal. With such a large piece of metal, Yi Tian estimated that after smelting it, he would be able to inscribe it three or four times. This made him extremely happy. Originally, there was a weapon called the Cold Glass Sword in the Distant Fire Ten Weapons that could be used.
He nodded without any change in his expression, then took out the Soul-Suppressing Gong and placed it on the table.
Jiang Zongqin first used his Divine Sense to scan it, then under Yi Tian's instructions, he picked up the Spirit Artifact and injected his Spirit Power into it.
After a while, Yi Tian explained to Jiang Zongqin, Jiang Zongqin revealed a satisfied smile and said, "How about this, I'll use this level 6 demon beast's bone to trade with you." He didn't care if Yi Tian agreed or not and directly pushed the bone forward.
This time, it was Yi Tian's turn to be embarrassed. Although this transverse bone seemed to be emitting a strong aura, it was still too little for a refining material. Moreover, the ultimate goal of this trip was to obtain the Azure Ice Crystal ore.
The other party seemed to have seen through his intentions and deliberately played like this.
However, he couldn't give his defensive spirit tool to him. That would be a huge loss. After thinking for a bit, Yi Tian said, "I don't know if Fellow Jiang is interested in a level 5 offensive spirit tool. I'm willing to trade it for this ore."
At this moment, Jiang Zongqin revealed a proud expression and said, "Of course I'm interested. Since Brother Yi is interested, I can also take a look."
After helplessly shaking his head, Yi Tian directly took out a pellet-sized spirit tool and placed it on the table. This time, Jiang Zongqin was excited. After looking at it, he blurted out, "Sword Pill".
Yi Tian also nodded. This thing was originally Xiang Tiancheng's natal sword pill. It was a pity that it was stuck in the spiral fire shield during the battle with him last time. However, life bound spirit tools were not ordinary. After that, Yi Tian specially spent some time to study this sword pill. After looking through the Profound Yang Tool Refining Scripture, he found that there was a method to refine a sword pill.
Although the refining materials were rare and needed to be nurtured for a long time, there were still many sword cultivators in the cultivation world who would choose to use this as their life bound magic tool. There was no other reason. In terms of attributes, after a long time of nurturing, the compatibility would be very high. As a result, the power displayed would be extraordinary.
This grey sword pill was refined by Yi Tian using Xiang Tiancheng's life bound spirit tool as raw material. The inscriptions on it were also carved during the refinement to erase the original aura.
But no matter what, this thing could not be absorbed into the dantian and nurtured. It was as if the seal had a very strong resistance to this type of spiritual weapon. Thus, Yi Tian had no choice but to forge a new spiritual sword to use the Radiant Sword Technique. And now, this' sword orb 'just so happened to be Jiang Zongqin's.
