The Temple of Rain was located in the Luo Yu Mountain Range, an area jointly governed by the three sects. In the early years, the cultivators of the Immortal Sword Sect discovered a damaged palace while exploring the ruins. In the palace, there was a spring of the Rain God Spring. Every hundred years, a pool of spring water would flow out from the spring, about 20 liters.
At the beginning, the cultivators of the Immortal Sword Sect obtained benefits from the spring, and the strength of the Jin Dan cultivators rapidly increased. In order to maintain their advantage, the higher ups sealed the spring with restrictions.
But somehow, the news was leaked out, and the Demonic Sect and Cha Nu Sect joined forces to pressure the three sects. Finally, the three sects compromised and divided the spring water equally. In addition, every hundred years, the Heavenly Fate Sect would be invited to find the most promising cultivators in the Western Wasteland, so the Temple of Rain's spring water was divided.
Yi Tian originally thought that there were only 20 portions, but after listening to All-seer's explanation, he found out that there were two more portions that were given to them as a reward.
With All-seer's promise, he would definitely be able to obtain a portion. After using it to cleanse his Jin Dan, he might be able to cultivate the Jin Dan Nine Transformation Art and quickly increase his Jin Dan grade.
Seven to eight miles away from the Temple of Rain, there were already cultivators from the Western Wasteland gathered in the Holy City. The cultivators of the three sects were afraid that too many people would gather around the Temple of Rain, so they simply built the Holy City and drove all the busybodies there.
The area around the Temple of Rain was covered with restrictions, and other than the members of the three sects and the diviners of the Heavenly Fate Sect, no one else was allowed to enter.
When the results of the divination came out, each sect would choose a representative to send the list to the Holy City. The cultivators from all over the world could only wait for the news in the Holy City.
Every hundred years, the three lists would be released, and it attracted many cultivators to watch. The majority of them were there to join in the fun.
The trade fair in the Holy City would be held two to three years in advance, so that the cultivators from all over the world could have time to gather. Many people wanted to get acquainted with each other, and some came to ask for medicine from the pill refiners, or to ask for custom tools from the refiners.
At this time, Yi Tian was strolling around the Holy City's Treasure Inspection Fair. Every hundred years, the Holy City would attract many merchants from all over the continent. Now, there were all kinds of auctions and appraisals held with banners everywhere in the Holy City.
He had been to many auctions, and there were basically no good items for Foundation Establishment level cultivators. As for Jin Dan level cultivators, they generally required an invitation.
In order to reduce his exposure, Yi Tian had no choice but to give up on participating in the auction. Instead, he went to visit the appraisal shops. Xiao Linhang had mentioned before that these appraisal firms would sometimes display some rare pills or artifacts to attract the public's attention.
The most interesting part was the appraisal segment. Usually, they could privately accept requests from cultivators for one-on-one appraisal. If the results of the appraisal were not satisfactory, then they would not accept a single cent.
Now, he couldn't find a matching picture for the Wutong Tree branch in his hand in the Sutra Depository, but he was unwilling to give up, so he had to come to the Holy City to try his luck.
They walked into a shop called 'Dubious Not Leaking', and a shop assistant came up to greet them. After Yi Tian released a bit of spiritual pressure, the Foundation Establishment stage shopkeeper hurriedly walked over and asked, "Senior, do you want to buy something or appraise something?"
"I'm naturally here to find an appraisal master," Yi Tian replied.
"In that case, please come with me." Then, the shopkeeper led Yi Tian through two doors and came to a secret room. After Yi Tian sat down, the shopkeeper said, "Please wait a moment." Then, he left.
Half a quarter of an hour later, the door was pushed open, and an old cultivator came in. Judging from the spiritual power fluctuations around him, he was probably a Jin Dan cultivator with no future. He was probably a branch of the Commerce Alliance.
After the old man sat down, he said, "I'm Forin, the chief appraiser of 'Dubious Not Leaking'. The appraisal fee of our humble shop is 50,000 spirit stones for level-five materials and 100,000 spirit stones for level-six materials. If you sell to our humble shop, the appraisal fee can be reduced by 30%. Fellow Daoist, please consider it yourself. "
After thinking about it, the price was still a bit expensive, but there was no good way at the moment. Yi Tian took out a bag of spirit stones and put it on the table. Then, he took out the dead branch of the parasol tree and handed it to the appraiser, "Level-Six material needs to be appraised as a whole."
The appraiser, Forin, opened his eyes wide and looked at the things on the table. Then, he said, "Please wait a moment." Then, he picked up the dead branch with his right hand and began to examine it carefully.
He stared at the dead branch for a while, then took out a knife and tried to cut off some bark from it. However, only a 'squeak' sound was heard when the knife cut the branch, but it couldn't cut off the bark. Instead, the edge of the knife was bent.
This time, Forin's face was embarrassed for no reason. He stretched out his right hand and offered a wisp of flame. He began to burn the end of the dead branch.
After a full quarter of an hour, the end of the branch seemed to be leaking spiritual energy. Then, Forin took out a jade slip and began to check. His face was not very good. Maybe he was a little puzzled about it.
Half an hour later, the expression on Forin's face suddenly eased. He turned his head and picked up the parasol tree to look at it again and again. It seemed that he was making a comparison.
After a while, his frown began to slowly relax. He turned to Yi Tian and said, "Congratulations, friend. This is a branch of the 'Fusang tree'. Although it is a little old, the fire spiritual energy in it is still very abundant."
After hearing this, Yi Tian was also happy. According to the records of the Tianlan Continent, this' Fusang tree 'was a branch where the three-legged golden crow lived. It contained the purest innate fire essence. Even if it was such a small piece, the effect of refining weapons was very impressive.
He turned to Forin and said, "I don't know if you have a way to refine this thing?" No matter how good this treasure was, it was useless if it couldn't be refined.
Forin pondered for a while and replied, "The body of this thing is a spiritual plant that grows with the innate fire essence. If you want to refine it, you have to use special means."
"What do you mean?" Yi Tian asked.
After organizing his thoughts, Forin replied, "Just now, I tried to burn it with my own stone fire, but I could only force out a trace of spiritual energy. If you want to refine it, you need to practice extremely powerful fire cultivation methods. Or, with the assistance of one or two 'blue waves of clear spring', an ordinary refiner can also try to refine it."
Yi Tian's mind instantly went through the water chapter of the 'Ten Thousand Spiritual Medicines'. This' blue waves of clear spring 'was produced from the pools of large spiritual veins in the gathering places of large spiritual veins.
Often, only one liter of it could be taken out in a hundred years. It was the essence of the spiritual energy in the water. Although it was a little worse than the level of the Fusang tree, it was not a problem to soften the branch of the Fusang tree.
Moreover, this thing was usually used as a supplementary material to increase the spiritual qi in refining pills of level 6 and above. However, this thing could only be produced in the spirit veins occupied by the various large sects. It was impossible to find it outside.
After thanking Forin, Yi Tian also asked if there was any 'blue waves of clear spring' for sale. The other party shook his head with a wry smile. This kind of spiritual item had always been controlled by the major sects. How could his small 'Perfect Doubt' have it?
Yi Tian turned his head and put away the things. He also knew that this matter could not be rushed, and now the most promising place to get the 'blue waves of clear spring' was the Immortal Sword Sect's warehouse.
It just so happened that Bei Ming Kong Jing had previously promised that as long as he obtained a portion of the holy spring water, he could go to the Immortal Sword Sect's warehouse and choose a level six treasure and a non-direct cultivation method from the Scripture Pavilion.
At this point, Yi Tian was still very confident in his own work, but he did not know if the Immortal Sword Sect's warehouse had what he wanted.
Fortunately, the appraiser in front of him could be considered to be experienced and knowledgeable. Because of this, the two of them chatted for a while, exchanging their experiences in refining and appraising.
After leaving 'Perfect Doubt', Yi Tian directly sent a message to Yin Jie and told him his request. He reckoned that Yin Jie should be standing guard outside the Temple of Rain. Although the divination ceremony had not yet been held, the three sects had already started to seal off the surroundings of the Temple of Rain.
Even if it was a cultivator like Yi Tian, he would still be able to enter the top three of the Earth Board.
After a while, the news came. Coincidentally, Yin Jie was on a break today. After receiving the message, he immediately reported it to Bei Ming Kong Jing. The reply that he received made Yi Tian's eyes light up.
Ever since the refining of the 'Heptagold Sword Sheath', the Yuanying cultivators of the Immortal Sword Sect had tested it a few times. Although they did not know the results, it was said that they had directly given him the title of a refining elder.
With regards to this, Yi Tian snorted disdainfully. It was impossible for him to sell his life for the Immortal Sword Sect just because they gave him some benefits. Furthermore, the remuneration for his services had not been paid yet.
Yin Jie's message was very simple. The sect still had a portion of 'Clear Jade Spring', which was about half a liter. As for the cultivation technique, he could choose from two portions. This was something that Bei Ming Kong Jing had fought for for Yi Tian.
This news had already been sent back to the Immortal Sword Sect. He believed that the sect had already sent people to pick it up. In a while, there would be people who would send it directly to the Immortal Sword Sect's encampment in the Sacred City. When the time came, he could ask Yi Tian to pick it up himself.
Although the refining materials were settled, Yi Tian still had some expectations for the two cultivation techniques. No matter what, the things that the Immortal Sword Sect took out were not fake goods. Furthermore, old man Bei Ming was willing to give him the 'Clear Jade Spring' in order to win him over, so the other things would definitely not disappoint him.
It seemed that they had also investigated Huo Chi Lian and Hong Luanjing's products from various sources. After comparing the two products, they should have an idea in their hearts. That was why they gave him the remuneration in advance.
However, the grades of the spirit tools that the two people refined were probably within their expectations. Everything would still depend on the results of the Earth List.
As long as Xiao Linhang completed the matter of the Purple Heaven Cup and the substitute doll, he believed that there would not be any mistakes.
After walking around the streets of the Sacred City, a figure flashed in front of him, causing Yi Tian to be startled. Wasn't that Du Heiyi? Ever since the treasure hunt thirty years ago, they had not had the opportunity to meet again. Looking at his appearance, his cultivation was still stuck in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Just as he was about to walk up and greet him, he suddenly saw two rogue cultivators following him from the corner of his eyes.
Originally, it was better to have less trouble, but no matter what, Du Heiyi was still someone who had suffered together. Seeing that he was in trouble, Yi Tian quietly followed him.
