The Great Wild God - Chapter 207
Chapter 207 The Battle of Weaponry Masters
The so-called fair competition between artificers was nothing more than a limited amount of time to refine their best magical artifacts in order to compete with each other.
As an outer sect disciple, Chen Xun was not qualified to challenge direct disciples, but Jiang Ke accused Chen Xun of stealing Mansion of Marquis Martial’s artifact forging technique first, and Chen Xun had bet ten extra ingots of Crimson Crow Gold, Zhu Feng, and the artificers of Myriad Pine Valley. Naturally, he had no reason to dissuade this competition.
Every magical artificer had their own secret techniques. Apart from the inheritance of their master and disciple, they were usually not allowed to be spied on by outsiders. Zhu Feng’s artificers could only stand by and watch Chen Xun and Jiang Ke forging magical artifacts.
Gu Yangfeng and Tianji Peak disciples placed restrictions on each other in two small courtyards beside the Sword Test Platform. Except for Chen Xun and Jiang Ke, the others were forbidden from entering.
Apart from the necessary forging materials and tools, Chen Xun and Jiang Ke also had to hand over their storage bags and other items temporarily to ensure that there was no possibility of cheating.
Three days was the limit. They would refine their best magical artifacts. Three days later, they would go to the Sword Test Platform to compete.
Three days was too short a time to refine a true high-grade magical artifact, but it was more ingenious and the enthusiasm of the audience could not be delayed for too long.
It was limited to three days. The time wasn’t long, and it couldn’t be considered short.
The half-yearly market and the half-yearly revision of the Cyan Cloud Tome were originally a grand event, with tens of thousands of disciples coming out of the cultivation grounds to breathe.
This time, there was actually a contest between outer sect disciples and direct disciples, and the news spread like wildfire. Naturally, the market in this issue was more lively than usual.
Three days passed in a flash. Chen Xun took out three giant secret talisman arrows and saw that there were two to three times more people in front of the sword test platform than three days ago.
Almost half of the onlookers wore the robes of the disciples of Gu Yang Peak and Tian Ji Peak.
He was an outer sect disciple of Gu Yang Peak, and Jiang Ke was a direct disciple of Tianji Peak. Compared to Jiang Ke, he was naturally the most attractive to the disciples of the two peaks.
Of course, there was a difference between the disciples of the two peaks who ran over to watch the show. Not only did several direct disciples of Tianji Peak look over with disdain, almost all of the inner disciples also left the mountain to enter Wansong Valley. Obviously, they all wanted to see what this arrogant disciple of his looked like.
On Gu Yangfeng’s side, there were more outer sect disciples running over to watch the show. As for direct disciples like Xia Xiangyi and most inner sect disciples, they were obviously afraid that Chen Xun would embarrass Gu Yangfeng, so they didn’t show up.
Gu Chengzhuo and several disciples of the Heavenly Punishment Peak had been guarding the Sword Test Platform with Lei Wanhe, Yu Wenying, and Yu Wenyuan for three days.
***************************
Chen Xun and Jiang Ke pinched their time and walked out of the courtyard on time three days later. Seeing that Jiang Ke was holding a spirit sword that revealed a spirit charm while Chen Xun was holding three dark secret talisman arrows, Lei Wanhe thought to himself, what the hell is this?
Secret Talisman Arrows were like Spirit Talismans. They were all disposable consumables. They had to be a level higher than magical artifacts that could be used repeatedly.
Talisman bows and arrows were not uncommon. After all, to many True Yang Realm disciples, bows and arrows were still sharp weapons that could kill enemies.
As for Reincarnation Realm cultivators, when their divine soul spiritual sense reached the middle and late stages, they were almost all strong enough to kill enemies three or four miles away from the Imperial Envoy’s magical artifact. Who would even look at the Talisman Bow and Talisman Arrow in their eyes?
“Grandfather, are you going to make us suffer this time?” Lei Wanhe ran over with a sad face.
“What’s the matter?” Chen Xun asked in confusion.
“Yuanwu Hall released a hidden trap. I can borrow 1,000 jin of Crimson Dark Gold to bet on you winning?” Lei Wanhe cried.
“Didn’t the Divine Night Sect prohibit disciples from gambling in order to avoid disturbing their temperament?” Chen Xun asked.
Gu Chengzhuo chuckled and said, “That’s why I said it was a secret plot. Since no one has spread the news, the sect will naturally not interfere. Do you have confidence today? I bet a large ingot of Crimson Crow Gold on you?”
Yuanwu Hall was indeed a tool forging shop set up by the Marquis of Yuanwu Manor in Wanpong Valley. It was also the largest magical artifact hall in Wanpong Valley. It was unknown how many profound talismans and magical artifacts were sold to the disciples of the Divine Night Sect every year.
The Marquis of Yuanwu Manor’s influence on the Divine Night Sect was not as simple as relying solely on the personal friendship between the Marquis of Yuanwu and the few Divine Night Sect Origin Core Adepts.
The Yuan Martial Hall secretly gambled with Jiang Ke’s victory and defeat, which was something that the upper echelons of the Divine Night Sect tacitly agreed to.
Chen Xun didn’t say anything to Gu Chengzhuo or Lei Wanhe when he saw Jiang Ke walking towards him, surrounded by the disciples of Tianji Peak.
Seeing that Chen Xun was holding only three secret talisman arrows in his hand, he said, Jiang Ke’s expression darkened slightly as he coldly said, “You can refine a few talisman arrows. How dare you boast about not putting Mansion of Marquis Martial in your eyes? It turns out that there are people in the sect who aren’t afraid of laughing off the teeth of the world.” He glanced at Gu Chengzhuo, Lei Wanhe, and the others and said disdainfully, “It’s fortunate that you guys are so stupid as to bet your chips on this arrogant person?”
Gu Chengzhuo smiled and said, “Senior Brother Jiang, isn’t this not on the sword test platform?”
Jiang Ke sneered and didn’t say anything else. He stood aside the crowded onlookers and walked to the sword testing platform. He first handed over the spirit swords he had refined to the artificers from the Zhu Feng Artificing Academy and the three great halls for their appraisals …
“What else?” Lei Wanhe was extremely depressed as he complained in a low voice.
Lei Wanhe was at the peak of the late Reincarnation Realm, and he had made a living by cheating in his early years. His eyesight was naturally not bad. He thought to himself that Jiang Ke was actually able to refine a mid-grade Advanced Spirit Sword in three days, so it wasn’t bad for him to be born in Mansion of Marquis Martial, the Tool Refining Sect.
The Azure Cloud Spectrum was the ranking of artifacts among the disciples of the Divine Night Sect. Naturally, Origin Core and Adept Dharma Form artifact refiners wouldn’t come out to join in the fun. Lei Wanhe estimated that most of the artifact refiners from Zhu Feng and the ten artifact refiners sent by the three great halls might not be as good as Jiang Ke. How could Chen Xun possibly have any hope of winning?
This time, Chen Xun was refining another one-time consumed secret talisman arrow. Unless he could reach the standard of an Earth-ranked talisman arrow, why would he win against a mid-grade spirit sword?
**********************
“Mysterious patterns circulate like water waves without any hindrance. Spiritual energy merges into the Dao, and whether it is absorbing spiritual energy or circulating spiritual energy, they all meet the standards for advancing to the next level of magic tools. When Senior Brother Jiang refined this sword, his own fate essence true blood was used as a guide and merged into the sword body. This caused the sword to correspond to his divine soul aura, and its quality to rise to a higher level. It was undoubtedly a mid-grade magical artifact. Senior Brother Jiang’s ability to forge weapons has already surpassed ours. He is indeed worthy of being a person from Mansion of Marquis Martial … “As one of the artificers spoke, he raised the spirit sword that Jiang Ke had forged high up so that all the disciples in front of the sword testing platform could see it.
From what the artificer said.
The onlookers who ran over to watch the show couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise,
“Mansion of Marquis Martial is indeed worthy of being the number one sect in the Northwest Domain. I’ve never heard that Senior Brother Jiang is also good at forging weapons. I didn’t expect that he would be so powerful!”
‘”That’s right. To be able to refine a mid-grade Spirit Sword in three days’ time. Such a skill of forging is truly stunning. I think even the forging masters of the Zhu Feng Forging Academy probably don’t have the same level of skill as Senior Brother Jiang, right?”
Most of the disciples in front of the Sword Testing Platform were dumbfounded. If they were at such a level of artifact forging, even if they were to help them repair and refine magical artifacts, they would still be able to become rich in Qingjun City.
“Let’s see how that arrogant and arrogant kid Gu Yangfeng will end up!”
“It’s too far away. I can refine three secret talisman arrows in three days. If I have the ability, I’ll wake up laughing at night.”
‘”His skill isn’t bad, but he’s too arrogant and arrogant. He actually dares to provoke Senior Brother Jiang. Senior Brother Jiang defeated him openly this time by relying on his artifact forging skills, but if a mere outer sect disciple provoked him like this, would he be able to spare him in the future if he found an opportunity?”
Chen Xun listened to the discussions of the disciples below the stage and only smiled faintly.
Lei Wanhe smiled bitterly as he followed behind Chen Xun and said, “You can be considered a famous sect, but you’re really willing to give up those ten ingots of scarlet black gold …”
“Are you sure I will lose?” Chen Xun asked Lei Wanhe with a smile.
“It’s good to win or lose. You can force Jiang Ke to lose a drop of his life essence true blood. From now on, he will be the number one person in Divine Night Sect.” Gu Chengzhuo was delighted. He didn’t care about winning or losing. He asked Chen Xun, “What old grudge do you have with Mansion of Marquis Martial in the future?”
“No matter how deep it is, it’s not that deep. Before entering the Divine Night Sect, the manor of the Marquis of Yuanwu chased after me for a long time.” Chen Xun said.
Gu Chengzhuo smacked his lips and didn’t think so.
Although offending such a powerful force like Mansion of Marquis Martial was a troublesome matter, since everything had happened, there was nothing to be afraid of.
Once they set foot on this path of no return, they would encounter countless life and death difficulties. If they were afraid, what else could they talk about cultivating and seeking the Dao?
*******************
At this time, the artificer stood in front of the sword test platform, raised the spirit sword that Jiang Ke had refined, and asked Jiang Ke, “With such a spirit sword, did Senior Brother Jiang ever think of giving it a resounding name?”
“A resounding name, then call it the Dog Slaying Sword!” Jiang Ke gently looked at Chen Xun, his heart filled with resentment.
An Advanced Spirit Sword was like garbage in Jiang Ke’s eyes, but in just three days, Jiang Ke, who wasn’t good at forging weapons, naturally couldn’t forge any good swords.
In order to secure victory, Jiang Ke didn’t hesitate to sever his meridians and take his life essence blood. He fused it into the sword and forcefully raised the broken sword to the middle-grade.
Losing a drop of life essence true blood on this useless sword would cost him at least a year of cultivation.
What made him even more resentful was that Chen Xun was simply bluffing. In three days, he actually took out three secret talisman arrows to fool him.
Although the vast majority of the outer sect disciples were filled with admiration and admiration for the level of artifact forging he had displayed, Jiang Ke could see the true disciples of Zhu Feng and top figures like Gu Chengzhuo among the inner sect disciples present today. He looked at them with disdain for him being such a small outer sect disciple.
“To compete with a mere outer sect disciple to refine a weapon, you actually didn’t hesitate to waste a year of cultivation. Even if you win, what glory would there be?” At this moment, Chang Xi was wearing a pair of soul-absorbing jade feet. She stepped on the spiritual energy green lotus and crossed the valley behind the sword-testing platform. She glanced at the spiritual sword that Jiang Ke had refined and shook her head. “What a pity. What’s even more shameful is that even if she wasted a year of cultivation, she wouldn’t be able to win!” She sighed.
