Chapter 448 – Sword Tomb
When Yang Junqi and Su Baozhang went down the mountain, Yang Junshan asked the two to inform Zhang Huzi to come and see him.
In the recent few years, Zhang Hu had lived quite unhappily, he finally began to realize that his talent for refining was not too good, and the refining skills he had inherited were also very rough. This caused him, under the support of the Yang family, to only be able to cultivate two low-grade magic tools, while there were seven to eight batches of waste refining spirit materials.
However, although Zhang Hu’s talent in refining spirit materials was average, he had quite a bit of skill in refining spirit materials. Below the spirit material level, he could refine high-grade, low-grade, high-grade, high-grade materials into extremely pure spirit materials.
And the reason why Yang Junshan called him over was because he wanted him to take a step further and try to refine the Spirit Ranked raw ore.
“Spiritual Grade material?”
Aalf-baked refiner, he naturally knew about the value of spirit rank materials. With his current level of difficulty in refining low rank magic tools, directly refining spirit rank materials would mean that he didn’t have any confidence at all.
Yang Junshan laughed, then said: “Do you still remember how to control mountains?”
“Of course!”
Zhang Huzi’s face immediately lit up, the High quality magical equipmenad been successfully patched. In the recent years, this was one of the few bright spots in the Xishan Village, a artificer who had even spent a lot of effort to refine a lower tier magical equipment, had actually successfully patched up the High quality magical equipment.
Originally, when Yang Tiangang handed the mountain range over to Yang Tianlei, he planned to get the equipment forgers from the Heaven-Shaken Sect to repair it. However, after getting hold of the item, Yang Tianlei couldn’t wait and wanted to test the power of the enchantment, so he asked Zhang Hu to repair it once more.
However, Zhang Hu who had previously failed in refining multiple times, suddenly got a burst of energy out of nowhere, this fellow actually wanted to completely repair the mountain range in a whim, and even borrowed the spirit materials Yang Tianlei had given him to actually make a successful repair.
At that time, Yang Junshan had already brought Yang Junping and Su Baozhang to the Heaven-Shaking Peak, so he did not know that this incident caused a huge commotion in the Martial Realm Cultivator. Even though a majority of the people there, including Zhang Hu himself, thought that it was all a fluke, but Yang Tiangang had still put together five sets of spirit materials for him to refine.
However, after more than two years had passed, the five sets of spirit materials were scrapped successively, and only managed to create the most common of the low grade magic tools, the Thousand Gold Bricks. This greatly disappointed Madame Yang, and made him even more convinced that she was just lucky that he had successfully repaired the Rings of the Bound.
However, Yang Junshan himself didn’t think so. At the moment, aefiner, from refining spirit materials, to refining spirit artifacts, spirit artifacts, spirit treasures, and even repairing damaged magic treasures, it was all done by refiners.
However, after the great change of heaven and earth, the things that these refiners had to do were divided into three categories. Some cultivators specialized in refining spirit materials, were called “Refiners”, some only focused on refining weapons, were still called “Refiners”, and some didn’t have much skill in refining, but they were extremely adept at repairing magic tools. These people were called “Restorators” for magic treasures.
However, the other two categories were difficult to master. The refiners were still the ones with the highest status among the three types of people, and in the end, they were respected cultivators. However, it was undeniable that the other two categories also firmly established themselves in the cultivation world.
The reason was very simple. After the great change of heaven and earth, the entire cultivation world was in chaos, cultivators would always dance on the edge of the blade, and all kinds of magical equipment were severely damaged. Just relying on the refiners to purify the spiritual materials, refine the magical equipment, and repair the magical equipment, the supply of all kinds of magical equipment was already short of supply, and the efficiency was also very low.
Aesult, in order to speed up the refining process, a refiner specialised in purifying spirit materials was gradually formed. The refiner was only concerned with refining magic treasures.
At the same time, because magic treasures being damaged were already a common occurrence, and the spirit materials were gradually becoming scarce, most cultivators could only repair the damaged magic treasures and use them. Thus, the magic treasure repair masters gradually became more and more important.
This Zhang Hu’s [Inherent Skill] forging skill was worrisome, but he was proficient in the purification and refinement of spirit materials. Now, Yang Junshan felt that this brat could perhaps even be proficient in fixing magic treasures.
Yang Junshan laughed and said: “I think perhaps you should put more effort into refining and repairing magic tools, this way you can at least lay a foundation for your smithing. In the future, if the Yang family can find a good smithing inheritance, when the time comes, your smithing skills might be able to receive a qualitative improvement.”
Yang Junshan did not directly ask him to focus on the improvement of the spirit materials and the repair of the spirit equipment, as he was afraid that it would damage his originally low self-confidence.
Zhang Hu nodded and said, “In fact, there have been quite a few people who have come looking for me with spirit materials recently. They only asked me to refine the spirit materials ore, and some people have asked me to repair their damaged artifacts.”
Seeing his calm expression, Yang Junshan guessed that the shock he had received in this period of time must have been numbed, and did not feel any rejection of it. Only then did he relax, in reality, after the great change in this world, the rise of refiners and restorers, and the majority of the people who were involved in such things were cultivators who did not have any future on the path of Artifact Forging.
“Oh right, what did you call me here for?” Zhang Hu asked calmly, but this calmness made Yang Junshan feel that Zhang Hu seemed to have matured a lot.
Yang Junshan smiled unnaturally, and said: “Actually I also want you to help refine some spirit material raw ores.”
Zhang Hu replied with a “Oh” and asked: “Are you prepared to refine the High quality magical equipment? I can also refine high grade spirit material raw ore well.”
Yang Junshan laughed and said: “Not high grade spirit materials, but spirit grade spirit materials!”
Zhang Hu’s calm eyes finally lit up and he said, “Spirit material?” I’ve never tried that before! ”
“We still have to give iry!”
Yang Junshan brought Zhang Hu to an empty land in the pomegranate forest on the mountainside. At this time, many strange looking holes had already been dug in the ground, and these holes were all orderly surrounding the place, as if they formed a whole.
Yang Junshan looked at the confused Zhang Huzi and asked: “Do you believe that flying swords can be grown?”
“Flying sword?” Zhang Hu let out a startled cry, and quickly recovered from the shock after he heard what Yang Junshan had said. What kind of joke is this? ”
Yang Junshan laughed bitterly and said: “I really want to try out this joke, but I need your help.”
With a wave of Yang Junshan’s hand, seven or eight types of low and middle grade spirit materials and more than a dozen high grade spirit materials fell onto the ground.
Zhang Hu was startled and said, “That much?”
Yang Junshan said helplessly: “These may not be enough, but fortunately there are more types, so the amount will be less. After refining and purifying all the raw materials, you can place them intole, and I will drag some of the spirit materials here. Also, I will need to use a secret array to nourish the spirit energy in this area, the spirit energy here will be much denser, so you should not delay your own training.”
Zhang Hu was surprised, “You really plan on growing a flying sword?”
“Do you think I’m playing at sucigh price?”
Although Zhang Hu could not believe it, but since Yang Junshan wanted him to do so, he would not reject it. In any case, the opportunity to refine and purify the Spirit Materials was not easy to come by, in fact, he had not seen any of the seven or eight low grade Spirit Materials that Yang Junshan had taken out before.
“That’s right. According to the shape of the pile of various spiritual materials according to this pit, what is this thing called?” Seeing that Yang Junshan was about to leave, Zhang Hu immediately asked.
Yang Junshan was startled, and said: “Let’s call it the Sword Tomb.”
Zhang Hu curled his lips and said disapprovingly, “The Sword Tomb is more liklace to bury the flying sword. It’s strange that a flying sword could grow in the tomb!”
The reason why Yang Junshan used so many spirit materials to cultivate his sword technique, was because he did not lack high level spirit materials.
As a newly risen powerful family, the Yang family’s foundation should be very shallow, but in fact, the Yang family still lacks low-level cultivation resources, and is still in a situation where they have to gather a lot of resources to barely be self-sufficient.
However, high level cultivation resources, such as spirit materials, spirit herbs, pills, and the like, after going through the experiences of the Sunset Ridge and the Heaven-Shaking Peak, were instead in an abnormal state of excess.
It was also because of this that Yang Junshan was willing to take out five to six low-grade spirit materials and over ten types of high-grade magic materials in one go to try to build a small Sword Tomb, and after the Sword Tomb was completed, he would have to continuously invest a large amount of cultivation resources, such as Spiritual Origin Pearls, Jade Crystals, and various types of spirit materials to nurture flying swords.
After he finished explaining the situation, Yang Junshan returned to the secret room to train.
And at this time, in an unknown location, several Adept Realm Cultivator s on the side of the Heaven-Shaken Sect had already fallen into an extremely dangerous situation.
“Senior Brother Qing Mu, the Buried Sky Ruins’s seal has been broken, the matter is irreparable, let’s leave!”
Adept Qing Shu looked towards the sky where the spatial entrance was ripped open, and streams of light flew over one after another from the spatial entrance. Each and every stream of light signified the existence of at least one realms of life stepping into this world.
“Senior Brother, if we don’t leave now, we will be surrounded!”
Adept Qing Shu’s expression suddenly became determined, and said: “No, we cannot leave at this time, we must go and meet up with the cultivators from the other sects, no one is not clear about the consequences of the broken Buried Sky Ruins’s seal, at this time, the entire Yuzhou’s cultivation world can only join hands, and only then can we fight fohread of hope.”
“Alliance?” Zhu Bandong shook his head and said, “They won’t believe us. Furthermore, ever since we entered the Buried Sky Ruins, the various sects fought each other for their own benefits. Who would still dare to trust someone else?”
Adept Qing Shu let out a long sigh, and said: “If there is still a Daoist Realm cultivator in our sect, then what can we do? No matter what, in this life or death situation, we must try our best.
