The Great Wild God - Chapter 209
Chapter 209 Green Flame Lotus Arrow
Gu Chengzhuo, Lei Wanhe, and the other tens of thousands of Divine Night Sect disciples gathered in front of the sword test platform were stunned when they saw Jiang Ke standing in rags amidst the stone powder flying everywhere.
Even the many direct disciples floating around the Sword Testing Platform revealed astonished expressions. It was hard to imagine how powerful those three secret talisman arrows were.
Jiang Ke can of course retreat, of course you don’t have to be so miserable, but he said after half a step back even if the loss of big words, how to let him retreat half a point?
However, even if he didn’t take half a step back, the outcome wouldn’t necessarily be good.
He looked at the broken sword in his hand and the ragged clothes on his body. His heart was filled with shock, bitterness, and embarrassment. He never thought that this would be the end!
He was too shocked. There was complete silence in front of the sword test platform. No one knew what to say.
Zhou Yang and the other artificers were also in a sorry state when they got close to the sword test platform. However, the results of the sword test had come out. Now, it was their turn to come up with a formal conclusion.
All the artificers exchanged glances in disbelief. Cloud Continent wasn’t without powerful talisman arrows, but it wasn’t something they could refine. It was even harder to imagine that the outer sect disciple standing behind Chang Xi in the air had truly reached such an outstanding level of artifact refinement. He was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.
After a moment of silence, Zhao Gaojing coughed softly. He stepped on the stairs and climbed onto another sword-testing platform. He said loudly, “The spirit sword is broken, and the talisman arrow is extinguished. It can be considered a draw.”
As soon as Zhao Gaojing said this, there was an uproar in front of the sword test platform.
Although Jiang Ke hadn’t taken half a step back, as a direct disciple, Jiang Ke’s spirit essence was far beyond the reach of ordinary outer sect disciples. Even a mere mortal sword in his hand could be displayed by more than ten times, a hundred times the level of an outer sect disciple. Now that the sword was destroyed, how could it be said to be a draw?
“Who doesn’t know that the Yuanwu Hall is run by the Yuanwu Marquis Manor? Zhao Gaojing, you have the face to stand up and say this?” Amongst the onlookers, there were already people who were not pleasing to the eyes of the Yuanwu Marquis Manor. They shouted loudly and almost spat out their saliva on Zhao Gaojing’s face.
Zhao Gaojing stood on the sword-testing stage, his face flushed red, but he couldn’t help but say something for Jiang Ke.
Many direct disciples also frowned when they heard Zhao Gaojing’s words.
Jiang Ke was fine, and apart from the broken spirit sword in his hand, the disciple on his body was also torn apart by the impact. In order to not take half a step back, his condition could be said to be extremely miserable.
The direct disciple robes that the sect had bestowed on them weren’t considered high-grade goods, but they could barely be considered Earth-ranked spiritual robes.
Wasn’t the outcome of this artifact forging competition clear at a glance?
Chang Xi sat naked on a spiritual energy green lotus and smiled at Jiang Ke. “Jiang, do you have the face to accept this draw?”
Chen Xun said indifferently, “Artificers have their own dignity as artificers. This competition also requires Senior Brother Jiang to know that Chen’s artificing skills cannot be secretly learned from Mansion of Marquis Martial. It doesn’t matter if he wins or loses.”
Chen Xun said calmly, but he and Chang Xi sang together. The veins on Jiang Ke’s forehead jumped and his face twisted slightly. However, what kind of ruthless words could he say at this moment?
He also had no face to look at the many fellow disciples of Tianji Peak in front of the Sword Test Platform. With a gloomy expression, he threw the half-broken sword in his hand and transformed into a rainbow that swept towards Tianji Peak.
“How impolite. I don’t even have the guts to say the word’lose ‘.” Chang Xi shook her head and sighed, as if she had never been used to Jiang Ke’s character.
Under Chang Xi’s taunting voice, the disciples of Tianji Peak and Zhao Gaojing, who had followed Jiang Ke to Wansong Valley to assist the formation, all left the crowd in a dejected manner.
Even though the few direct disciples of Tianji Peak who did not have a very harmonious relationship with Jiang Ke were extremely happy to see Jiang Ke make a fool of himself, it was Tianji Peak who had lost face this time.
Gu Chengzhuo, Lei Wanhe, and the others jumped onto the sword test platform. They hadn’t recovered from their shock yet. They grabbed Chen Xun and asked, “What kind of talisman arrow is this? It’s actually so powerful?”
Chen Xun only made the Green Flame Thunderbolt into an arrow. Three days was too short. He could have refined the Secret Talisman Arrow to a more subtle degree, but this time, he didn’t have enough time to implement some of his ideas.
The Azure Flame Lotus Art was a profound Dao Art that he had comprehended by observing the Azure Phoenix Dharma Form, fusing the Fierce Flame Impact Technique and the Nine Qi Profound Yang Fire
Sealing the Cyan Flame Lotus Fire with the Nine Nether Iron was a secret technique contained in the Profound Evolution Technique. Even though Chang Xi was knowledgeable and could see through some of the mysteries within the Cyan Flame Thunderbolt Child, she was unable to refine it.
It wasn’t surprising that the others didn’t recognize Azure Flame Thunderbolt.
Facing Gu Chengzhuo and Lei Wanhe’s shock, Chen Xun only smiled and said, “Senior Brother Gu, if you need me, I can find time every month to refine two or three Green Flame Lotus Arrows …”
“Junior Brother Chen, can you temporarily let go of your cultivation and refine thirty Cyan Flame Lotus Arrows within a month? I also have some forging materials and some magical artifacts on my side. If Junior Brother Chen is interested in them, he can take them …” Yu Kong flew over and asked a direct descendant of a disciple of the Heavenly Punishment Peak.
“This is our Heavenly Punishment Peak’s direct descendant, Senior Brother Zhao Cheng’en. I’m also cultivating in Senior Brother Zhao Cheng’en’s cave valley.” Gu Chengzhuo said.
Below the sect were the seven peaks, and below the seven peaks were the nearly two hundred caves opened by Zhu Zheng’s disciples and elders.
As an inner sect disciple, Gu Chengzhuo didn’t have the qualifications to open his own cave even though his status wasn’t inferior to that of an ordinary direct disciple. He could only cultivate in Zhao Chengen’s cave valley.
“One ingot of Crimson Black Gold for a Cyan Flame Lotus Arrow, are you willing to give it up?” Chang Xi asked Zhao Cheng’en.
“It’s not that difficult.” Chen Xun hurriedly stopped Chang Xi and said, “Senior Brother Zhao, if you need it, I’ll list out the ingredients for refining thirty Green Flame Lotus Arrows. However, I can only give fifteen Green Flame Lotus Arrows to Senior Brother Zhao. Does Senior Brother Zhao think I’m too greedy?”
Chen Xun wanted to establish a good relationship with Zhao Cheng’en and the other direct disciples, which would greatly help him establish his foothold in the Divine Night Sect. He couldn’t control everything under Chang Xi’s control.
Chen Xun needed a large amount of Nine Nether Iron to repair the Star Iron Demon Body. Nine Nether Iron was also a rare item in the Divine Night Sect. Chen Xun wanted to slowly accumulate Nine Nether Iron and other forging materials by helping others forge magic tools.
This matter had to be delicate and long-term, and he immediately wanted to beat the pen ruthlessly. Although it could benefit him for a while, it was not conducive to his foothold in the Divine Night Sect.
Seeing Chen Xun cultivating in the Cuiwei Lake’s cave residence, Zhao Cheng’en actually had the guts not to ask Chang Xi to interfere. He laughed and said, “Junior Brother Chen is so straightforward. I’ve already thanked you here.” He then said to Gu Cheng Zhuo, “I can’t stay at the mountain gate for a month. I’ll leave this matter to you, Junior Brother Gu. When the time comes, I’ll give you three Green Flame Lotus arrows.”
During this period of time, Gu Chengzhuo was short of money. If he really wanted one ingot of scarlet black gold and one Azure Flame Lotus Arrow, it would be enough to empty his family’s wealth. And if he helped Zhao Cheng’en run errands, he would be able to obtain three Azure Flame Lotus Arrows. What was there to be unhappy about?
He also knew that Zhao Cheng’en was afraid of dealing with this evil woman, Chang Xi.
When the other disciples in front of the Sword Test Platform saw that Zhao Cheng’en had ordered fifteen Cyan Flame Lotus Arrows from the Heavenly Punishment Peak, their hearts itched for such a sharp weapon. However, they felt that they didn’t have the qualifications to join in the fun at this moment. They thought that it wouldn’t be too late to bring up this matter again when they met Chen Xun in the future.
For a mere outer sect disciple to be able to make the Heavenly Flame Peak’s direct disciple Jiang Ke so embarrassed with three Green Flame Lotus Arrows, apart from the Zhu Feng direct disciples and the more than 100,000 Divine Night Sect disciples, how many others could resist three Green Flame Lotus Arrows simultaneously with the magical artifacts in their hands?
In front of the sword test platform, there were many people with good eyesight.
The Azure Flame Lotus Arrow was still unable to display its maximum value in the hands of the direct disciples. If the inner sect disciples were able to obtain more Azure Flame Lotus Arrows, it would not be impossible for them to kill a Heaven Origin Realm expert.
To be able to wipe out the difference in a realm, an arrow and an ingot of crimson black gold wasn’t too expensive to be honest.
At this moment, Chen Xun was helping others refine the Green Flame Lotus Arrow. It could be said that it was extremely fair to take only one of the two arrows as a reward.
This time, it changed the impression that others had of Chen Xun.
They all thought that although this disciple Gu Yangfeng had acted arrogantly before, he had the qualifications to be arrogant. Secondly, he had the dignity of a tool forger. Jiang Ke accused him of stealing the tool forging techniques of the Marquis of Yuan Dynasty, forcing him to teach the Marquis of Yuan Dynasty a lesson in tool forging.
Chang Xi glanced at Chen Xun with her beautiful eyes. She took out the Spirit Gathering Mountain and River Array from her bosom and asked Zhou Yang, “Zhou Yang, this Spirit Gathering Formation was also refined by Chen Xun. Do you guys want to study it carefully and see how well it ranks in the Cyan Cloud Tree?”
Zhou Yang and the other artificers had bitter smiles on their faces.
As artificers, they were curious about magical artifacts they had never seen before. Previously, they weren’t very familiar with the Spirit Gathering Restriction, so they were already cautious in ranking the Spirit Gathering Mountain River Formation’s 97 Cyan Cloud Tome.
However, if Chang Xi mentioned this matter again, what could they say?
As Gu Yangfeng’s Weaponry Refining Dean, Zhou Yang could only stand up and forcefully say, “Can we spare two days to study it?”
Chang Xi smiled and said, “It has been too long since you left the mountain gate. You may not be able to recognize the true value of the Spirit Gathering Mountain River Formation.” She tossed the Spirit Gathering Mountain River Formation to Zhao Cheng’en and said, “If you need to leave the mountain gate, I’ll lend you this formation for a month. If you find it useful, you can ask me for a price …”
Zhao Cheng’en didn’t know the grudge between Chang Xi and the artificers, but if Chang Xi lent him the magical artifact, he wouldn’t have the courage to accept it.
He looked at Chen Xun in puzzlement. Since Chen Xun was the one who refined this formation, why did Chang Xi have to make a move at this moment?
Chen Xun smiled bitterly and said, “Chen Xun’s cultivation is limited. Without Senior Sister Chang Xi’s help, he can’t refine the Spirit Gathering Restraint independently. If Senior Brother Zhao is really interested in the Spirit Gathering Mountain River Formation, then we’ll talk about it in detail in a month …”
Zhao Cheng’en put the Spirit Gathering Mountain and River Array into his bag of holding and cupped his fists with Zhou Yang and the others. “Senior Brother Zhou, Cheng’en, let’s see what good use this array is first.”
Zhou Yang smiled bitterly as he looked at Chen Xun and hesitated to say anything. He knew that Chen Xun was qualified to directly enter the Gu Yang Peak Weapon Refining Academy as an inner disciple, but thinking of Chang Xi, he felt that it was better not to open his mouth.
