Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 227 – Disappointment

Originally, he had obtained a middle tier magic tool from the treasury of the Changsun Family. However, after obtaining Yang Tiangang’s consent, he still madrip to the Mengyu County’s dark market.

Seeing Yang Junshan playing with the Snake-Necked Bow in his hand, Ouyang Xulin’s fondness for it showed off clearly. Ouyang Xulin then pulled out a secret drawer from the side of the wooden box, and saw that there were three three-foot long White Bone Feathered Arrows inside, and said: “These three bone arrows are mainly made from refining the remains of this bow along with some other spirit materials. If you use this bow to make them, their power would be even stronger than middle grade spirit weapons.

When Yang Junshan heard this, he said: “Then how do I usually use this magic tool? Do I also have to go and make some special arrows?”

He only used his physical body to try and pull it out, but he could only use a large majority of it. Thinking about how Yang Junshan had purely used his physical body to pull open the bow with the magic tool, looking like he did not use too much strength, he could not help but shake his head, and continued: “Even without using arrows, it is still possible, this is first a magic tool, and secondly it is a bow. Cultivators can use their own spirit energy as a guide, forming arrows of spirit energy to attack.

With that, Ouyang Xulin gave Yang Junshan a demonstration. After circulating his own spirit energy, the Snake-Necked Bow was fully pulled by him, and the spirit energy condensed into a long arrow on the bow in his right hand.

Ouyang Xulin slowly dispersed the condensed spirit energy, and the condensed spirit energy arrow also gradually turned into nothingness. Yang Junshan then asked: “I wonder if there are any spirit arts inheritances related to this type of spirit weapon in the cultivation world, if I could obtain it, I would be able to unleash the power of this spirit weapon to its limits.”

Ouyang Xulin threw the Snake-Necked Bow back to Yang Junshan and said: “You don’t have to say, ever since you planned to refine this magical artifact, I have indeed inquired about the inheritance of the archery in the Heaven-Shaken Sect. Although there are no such inheritances in the Heaven-Shaken Sect, but the cultivation world does have similar spiritual arts and abilities.”

Yang Junshan’s eyes lit up, and said: “There really is one?”

Ouyang Xulin nodded his head in certainty, and said: “According to the records of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, there are three great inheritances of the spirit arts related to archery: [Wind Arrow Spirit Art], [Rock Edge Spirit Art], and [Golden Feather Spirit Art]. However, there are still very few magic tools such as bows and arrows, because these spirit arts are considered unorthodox even amongst the three thousand spirit arts and are extremely rare in the world of cultivation.”

Yang Junshan cupped his hands and said: “Many thanks. As long as I know that I have that spirit technique, I will naturally pay attention to it.”

Ouyang Xulin nodded his head, and sighed: “Unfortunately, this artifact only used eight spiritual materials before and after, and the quality can only be considered average amongst the low grade artifact, and it’s not your life artifact either, if you want to upgrade it to a mid grade artifact in the future, it’ll be a waste.”

Yang Junshan laughed: “Let’s talk about this later. Although the power of the bow and arrow magic tool is a bit weaker, but at least this magic tool is enough for me to use the third stage. If I can find the appropriate spirit technique inheritances, it would not be difficult to use it at the late stage of martial arts realm.”

As he said that, a yellow light flashed in Yang Junshan’s hand. The three-inch long Mountain Monarch Seal was already in his palm, and he gave the magic tool in his hand to Ouyang Xulin: “Now that you have the Snake Kiss Bow in your hand, the Mountain Monarch Seal can give it to you without worry. However, to raise this magic tool to a mid-grade magic tool, how long would it take?”

Ouyang Xulin muttered to himself for a moment, then said: “If I don’t do anything, just raising this magical equipment, about two months is enough time, after all, I’m not refining it anew. But since I’m the only refiner out of the eight hundred in the Sha Tian Village Head, it’s hard to avoid being distracted by other things, but I think three or four months is more or less enough time.”

Although Yang Junshan felt that the time was a bit long, he had no choice. It was not easy to find a trusted artificer, not to mention that the Mountain Monarch Seal was his life’s magic tool, so he did not dare to be even the slightest bit careless.

However, Ouyang Xulin said at this time: “Oh right, do you remember the artifact spirit that was formed when this Mountain Monarch Seal was being refined back then?”

Yang Junshan nodded with a smile, “Of course I remember. If it wasn’t for the backlash of the spirit energy that appeared after the artifact was refined, I wouldn’t have broken through the bottleneck of the martial arts realm so quickly.”

Ouyang Xulin said: “It’s not easy to create an artifact spirit, although right now the Mountain Monarch Seal is only a magical equipment, and the artifact spirit is basically useless, but if I can continue nurturing it, if the Mountain Monarch Seal can be upgraded to a spirit artifact, or even a treasure, the artifact spirit will perhaps have some unpredictable uses.”

“Artifact spirit? Isn’t the appearance of that kind of thing dependent on the will of heaven? And how should it be nurtured? ”

Ouyang Xulin shook his head: “I am not too sure either, but it has a lot to do with the refiner and the cultivator themselves. Your magical artifact spirit is a mountain lord, maybe you should find a few fierce tigers and use blood sacrifices to communicate with the artifact spirit.

Although he did not have a Barbarian Beast Level Tiger, he had a Tiger Demon under his command that was about to evolve into a martial arts realm. Ever since Bao Yuer became the undead ghost, Hu Niu and Bao Yuer had been training in a secret room that Wu Shuo had specially opened for him in the Western Mountain for him.

Ouyang Xulin saw that he was stunned, and thought that he was disgusted by the matter of the blood sacrifice, thus he said: “This kind of secret technique is only useful for communicating with the artifact spirit, it doesn’t have to work, and if you don’t believe it, it doesn’t matter. You don’t have to worry too much about it, after the artifact advances, it’s more important to focus on nurturing it with your own spirit energy.”

Pausing for a moment, Ouyang Xulin changed the topic and asked: “In a few days, the border field will open, but I have heard that although it is only the three counties’ county decree, many other merchants will come over. At that time, the field will be very lively, and I’m afraid there will be many treasures that will appear at the meeting, how about we expand our horizons together?”

Yang Junshan casually said: “Alright, I am also planning on going to collect some suitable spirit materials.”

Ouyang Xulin said in surprise, “Collecting spirit materials? Are you still planning on refining magic tools? ”

Yang Junshan “Hehe” laughed, and said: “That’s right, when the time comes, I’ll need to ask for your help.”

Ouyang Xulin asked curiously: “Just what is this magic tool? From the looks of it, you seem to know the types of spirit materials required to refine magic tools, which makes me curious.”

“Chess!” Yang Junshan stared into Ouyang Xulin’s eyes, and said: “I want to refine a set of Chess, you know that I am an array master, I think you know the importance of a set of Chess to a formation master.”

“What? Chess?” As expected, Ouyang Xulin’s eyes widened, and then his face immediately flushed red, and he said: “But, but I do not know how to refine the Chess, the Heaven-Shaken Sect does have the method to create the array formation legacy, but only people who have become a Master Refiner have the qualifications to touch on that, I am only capable of refining mid-grade spirit tools, and do not have the qualifications to come into contact with any of these, unless I can become a Successor Disciple.”

Ouyang Xulin paused for a moment, and then could not help but say: “Refining Chess is extremely complicated, even if it’s just a low-grade magic tool, the difficulty of refining a Chess is no less than refining a High quality magical equipment. Furthermore, refining a Chess requires the close cooperation of a formation master, otherwise, it would be impossible to refine.”

Yang Junshan laughed: “But what if I have the complete inheritance of refining Chess in my hands?”

Ouyang Xulin was stunned, he stared blankly at Yang Junshan and had no choice but to take out the complete inheritance that he had won from Xiong Xizhe through the array formation. Ouyang Xulin dodged it in one go, and his spiritual will had already penetrated into the white jade board to look at the contents inside.

Yang Junshan did not disturb him, he only saw him use his fingers to quickly flip through the contents written on the white jade board, and after about the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Ouyang Xulin’s attention was retracted from the white jade board, and he laughed and asked: “How is it?”

Ouyang Xulin sighed, and said: “It’s true, although I do not know about the inheritance of the Chess, but I have the ability to judge whether or not it is true. The Chess is a unique type of refining technique, and the Ouyang Family does not even have such an inheritance, I never thought that the Mengyu County’s family of tyrants would actually be able to create an inheritance like this, even though it is only an Inferior Grade Chess, it will not be easy.”

Yang Junshan laughed: “Refining low rank Chess requires seven to nine low rank Chess s, I have already collected close to thirty of them, and there are still twenty more that have yet to be collected. This time, I am going to the field to gather all the spirit materials necessary to refine the Chess, how about it, do you have the confidence to refine the Chess?”

“No!”

Without even thinking about it, Ouyang Xulin extinguished the enthusiasm in Yang Junshan’s heart, and he continued: “Like I said before, the refining of Chess is extremely complicated, and even with the help of a ready-made array master like you, it’s still extremely difficult to refine it. You have to know, it takeotal of forty-nine different spirit materials to perfectly fuse together, and the amount of spirit materials a High quality magical equipment can fuse with a total of no more than thirty-six.”

Yang Junshan was startled, and asked: “Then when are you confident?”

Ouyang Xulin muttered to himself for a moment, then said: “I have to at least advance to the third level of martial arts realm, before I dare to try. It’s only fory, and whether or not I succeed I do not have the confidence.”

On the road back to the stronghold from Sha Tian Village, Yang Junshan’s interest was obviously not too high. It was true that Ouyang Xulin was a genius at smithing, but the difficulty in refining Chess had far surpassed his current level of smithing. Although Yang Junshan had passed down the complete inheritance to him, it would still be a long time before he could obtain a set of Chess.

Just as Yang Junshan returned to the stronghold, he saw Qi Zhou walking out. Seeing him return, Qi Zhou immediately said, “Little Yang, you’re back. There’s a small team here looking for you, they said they’re from the same village as you.”

Yang Junshan’s spirit was roused, and he said: “Oh, where are they?”

Qi Zhou pointed inside the foothold and said, “She’s still inside. You should go take a look. There’s still one more beauty among them. Hey, by the way, can you tell me her name?”
