Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

Qin Lian was surprised and said: "The Jiuli Sect has its own great master of weapon refining, why would he come to this pavilion to refine magic weapons?"

The Jiuli Sect is one of the ten major sects, the overlord of Lizhou, and has a complete inheritance.

These monks from the ten major sects rarely buy magic weapons from the branches of Wanling Pavilion, and they almost never ask the master of the weapon refiner of Wanling Pavilion to refine magic weapons.

Gui Yuanshu spread his hands and said, "I don't know the whole story, but Elder Tian and I have an old relationship. Since he came to my door, I naturally can't turn him away, so I can only come to Junior Brother Qin for help."

Qin Lian said: "Under normal circumstances, Qin would naturally be willing to refine magic weapons for Elder Tian, ​​but since he has already promised another Taoist friend, it is inconvenient to break his promise."

"Please also ask Senior Brother Gui to tell Elder Tian that when this matter is settled, Qin will refine the magic weapon for Elder Tian."

Gui Yuanshu frowned and asked, "May I ask Junior Brother Qin, what is the name of that fellow Taoist who came from Renzhou? Is he a monk in the middle stage of Nascent Soul?"

"When I was in charge of Renzhou Baibao Pavilion, I had a relationship with Songshan layman and Mr. Feng."

These two people were both well-known casual cultivators in the middle stage of Yuanying in Renzhou. Seeing that it was useless to use the name of the elder of the Jiuli Sect, he couldn't help but have some doubts. Maybe these two people came to Qin Lian to refine the magic weapon.

Qin Lian shook his head: "This fellow Taoist is named Chen Yuan, and he just gave birth to a baby a few years ago."

When Gui Yuanshu heard this, a look of displeasure immediately appeared on his face, and he said: "Jiuli Sect and this pavilion have always had business relationships. How can Junior Brother Qin offend Elder Tian for a casual cultivator who just gave birth to a baby?"

"Also, Elder Tian is willing to give out four top-grade spiritual stones and ask Junior Brother Qin to refine the weapon. How many spiritual stones can that fellow Daoist Chen bring out?"

Qin Lian was in a bad mood when he was interrupted by Gui Yuanshu.

Now after hearing this and looking at Guiyuan Shu's sharp-mouthed face, his mood became even worse, and his expression immediately turned cold: "Fellow Daoist Chen only took out two top-quality spiritual stones."

Gui Yuanshu smiled and said, "San Xiu's family is meager, and this fellow Daoist Chen just gave birth to a baby. It is reasonable that he cannot produce more spiritual stones."

"Before I came here, it is understandable that Junior Brother Qin agreed to this matter for the opportunity of refining high-level magic weapons."

"But Elder Tian is now willing to give out more spirit stones, why should Junior Brother Qin keep his promise to this person anymore?"

"He's just a casual cultivator with no family or sect. Junior Brother Qin can just find a reason to send him away. I'm afraid he won't dare to cause trouble to me."

Qin Lian said calmly: "Senior Brother Gui made a mistake this time. Although Fellow Daoist Chen is a casual cultivator, he took out a high-level magic weapon, a top-grade spiritual material, and several high-grade spiritual materials."

"Not only did he ask Qin to refine the magic weapon, but he also asked Qin to refine a high-level magic weapon, so Qin only needed two top-quality spiritual stones."

"And he came here with Senior Brother Pan's token. Senior Brother Gui also knows that Senior Brother Pan has helped Qin a lot in the past. How can Qin break his promise?"

Gui Yuanshu said in astonishment: "This person wants to ask Junior Brother Qin to refine two high-level magic weapons? He has just given birth to a baby and is a casual cultivator, yet his net worth is so rich?"

Qin Lian said: "To be honest, Senior Brother Gui, Qin had a heated discussion with fellow Taoist Chen and only lasted a few breaths before he was defeated."

"Fellow Daoist Chen is very powerful and has an evil aura. He has countless dead souls of Nascent Soul monks in his hands. He is definitely not an easy person to deal with. Since Qin has agreed to refine magic weapons for him, he cannot break his promise easily."

Gui Yuanshu rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Junior Brother Qin said that, I am quite curious about this fellow Daoist Chen. I wonder what kind of methods he has used to defeat Junior Brother just after giving birth?"

Qin Lian frowned and said, "Qin cannot reveal the methods used by fellow Daoist Chen, but what I just said is true. Senior Brother Gui, please come back."

Only when Chen Yuan believed in him would he tell the truth about his methods. Naturally, he could not reveal Chen Yuan's trump card to others.

More importantly, Qin Lian didn't want to offend Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan has just given birth to a baby, but he is already so strong. With so many spiritual materials and treasures, he may not be able to improve his cultivation to a higher level in the future.

If he wants to upgrade the robes and the Chongxuan Peak to top-level magic weapons, he will need the help of a weapon refiner. Qin Lian has now begun to take precautions and will never antagonize Chen Yuan.

But when Gui Yuanshu heard this, he thought Qin Lian was just bluffing and Chen Yuan was actually mediocre in strength.

It was only because of his friendship with Shopkeeper Pan that he insisted on refining the magic weapon for Chen Yuan.

Gui Yuanshu chuckled: "Since Junior Brother Qin has made up his mind, I don't want to force others to do anything, so I will leave first."

After that, he bowed with fists in his hands, stood up and left.

"Senior Brother Gui, please leave without seeing me off." Qin Lian remained motionless, but raised his hand and waved, and the two black stone doors slowly opened.

He watched Gui Yuanshu walk out of the cave, then stood up and returned to the training room, where he continued to warm up the red cauldron of his life and think about how to refine the two magic weapons.

But three days later, Qin Lian, who was in meditation, was awakened by Gui Yuanshu's old voice: "Junior Brother Qin, is he in the mansion? Gui Yuanshu is here to visit."

Qin Lian frowned, stood up, walked to the main hall, sat down, and pointed, the stone door slowly opened.

Gui Yuanshu walked in. Qin Lian looked cold and said, "What's the matter with Senior Brother Gui?"

Not only did he not leave the house to greet him, he did not even stand up to salute, which was extremely rude. His dissatisfaction with Gui Yuanshu was already palpable.

But Gui Yuanshu didn't seem to care about this and sat down opposite Qin Lian.

He sighed and said: "Yesterday, I felt that what Junior Brother Qin said was reasonable, so I went back to persuade Elder Tian that it would not be too late to wait for a few years before asking Junior Brother to refine the treasure."

"But who would have thought that Elder Tian didn't know what method to use. In the past few days, he actually persuaded the master of the pavilion to let Junior Brother Qin refine the magic weapon for him first."

"There is nothing I can do. I have to be the villain. This is the pavilion master's order. Please ask Junior Brother Qin to read it."

As he spoke, he took out a jade slip from the mustard ring and handed it to Qin Lian.

Qin Lian had a look of astonishment on his face, raised his hand to take the jade slip, and penetrated it with his spiritual consciousness.

After a while, he withdrew his consciousness and looked very ugly.

He did not expect that Gui Yuanshu would go to the pavilion master and ask him to refine the magic weapon for Elder Tian of the Jiuli Sect.

The jade slip did indeed contain the divine order from the master of Wanling Pavilion, but it only advised him to refine the magic weapon for Elder Tian first, and his tone was rather mild.

He understood the thoughts of the Pavilion Master. Wanling Pavilion generally has no contact with the ten major sects, but the Jiuli Sect is special. It is located in Lizhou, bordering Nanzhou. It has close contact with the Nanzhou Monster Clan in private and has many Nanzhou specialties. Spiritual materials and monster materials.

There are only three places where monsters live in Jiuxianzhou, namely Nanzhou, Hanzhou, and Wanyaohai.

Among them, Hanzhou is barren, has the smallest number of high-level monsters, and does not produce much monster material.

All the monster materials in the Ten Thousand Monster Sea are under the control of monk Yu Qinghai.

There are many high-level monsters in Nanzhou, and the battles within the monster clan are fierce. There are also many monks passing through Lizhou, entering Nanzhou to hunt monsters, or looking for Nanzhou's unique spiritual materials.

Therefore, Nanzhou continuously produces monster materials and some special spiritual materials every year, most of which are under the control of Jiuli Sect.

Wanling Pavilion requires not only spiritual materials but also monster materials to refine magical weapons. It has always had business dealings with the Jiuli Sect.

The three thousand years of fire silk that Qin Lian told Chen Yuan before was obtained from the transaction between Wanling Pavilion and Jiuli Sect.

Now that Elder Tian has found the pavilion master, he is an elder from the Jiuli Sect on one side and a casual cultivator who has just given birth to a baby on the other. It is not difficult for the pavilion master to make a choice.

This must be Gui Yuanshu's idea. The master of Wanling Pavilion is a great monk. Without Gui Yuanshu's help, Elder Tian would not be able to meet him.

But even if the pavilion master issued an order, Qin Lian did not want to obey.

Not only for the possible opportunity to refine the top-level magic weapon, Qin Lian shuddered when he thought of Chen Yuan's elusive figure when he was sparring with him, and the sharp black light on his arm that was like a crack in space.

But he couldn't regard the pavilion master's order as meaningless. After all, he had only refined three high-level magic weapons not long after his birth, and his status in Wanling Pavilion was far inferior to the other two great masters of weapon refining.

Qin Lian put the jade slip on the table, lowered his head and thought for a moment, and said, "The master of the pavilion clearly stated in the order that Elder Tian has produced more top-quality spiritual stones, so let me consider it carefully."

"But I don't want to break my promise. Let's let Elder Tian and Fellow Daoist Chen bid for the best spiritual stones. For the higher bidder, I will refine the magic weapon for him. How about that?"

Gui Yuanshu frowned: "This..."

Qin Lian said: "This pavilion has no precedent. Fellow Daoist Chen is just a casual cultivator, and Elder Tian is an elder of the Jiuli Sect. He shouldn't be afraid of bidding with Fellow Daoist Chen, right?"

Gui Yuanshu's brows widened: "Forget it, just as Junior Brother Qin said, I will go back now and inform Elder Tian of the matter, and also ask Junior Brother Qin to inform that Fellow Daoist Chen."

"At noon, I will go to Wanling Pavilion with Elder Tian to bid with fellow Daoist Chen. The one with the highest bid will be given priority by Junior Brother Qin to refine the magic weapon for him."

After saying that, he stood up, bowed his hands, and turned to leave.

Qin Lian remained motionless, watching Gui Yuanshu leave, and then stood up and walked out of the cave. The escaping light rolled up, flew to Wanling Peak, and landed in front of Chen Yuan's cave.

"Is Fellow Daoist Chen in the house? Mr. Qin is here to visit."

After a while, the stone door of the cave opened, and Chen Yuan walked out with a little surprise on his face.

He raised his hand and said, "Fellow Daoist Qin, please come in."

The two of them walked into the main hall of the cave and sat down respectively.

Chen Yuan took out the teapot and cup from the mustard seed ring and used a water gathering technique to condense a pot of clear water.

Then inject the true essence, the water boils instantly, the teapot tilts slightly, and the spiritual tea is filled, and the fragrance overflows.

The tea cup slowly flew towards Qin Lian, and Chen Yuan asked: "The one-month period has not yet come, could it be that the natal magic weapon of fellow Taoist Qin has been fully recovered?"

Qin Lian took the tea cup, drank it in one gulp, shook his head, and smiled bitterly: "Qin came here today not to ask fellow Taoist Chen to refine the magic weapon, but something unexpected happened..."

He explained the matter in detail, with an apologetic look on his face, and bowed with cupped fists: "Qin already promised fellow Taoist, but he broke his promise. I feel extremely guilty."

"It's just that the Pavilion Master issued an order, and Qin had no other choice."

"If fellow Taoist doesn't want to bid with Elder Tian of the Jiuli Sect, you can wait a few years, and then Qin will refine the magic weapon for fellow Taoist without taking any money."

When Chen Yuan heard about this, he was furious in his heart, but he kept a calm expression on his face and said calmly: "Fellow Taoist Qin, you don't have to blame yourself. If you hadn't argued hard with reason, I wouldn't even have a chance to bid."

"I still have a few top-grade spiritual stones in my hand. If it's not enough, I still have two top-grade spiritual materials. Elder Tian wants to ask fellow Taoist Qin to refine the magic weapon. I'm afraid he will have to wait for several years." (End of Chapter)
