Yuan Yu Furnace Acquired, Everything Ready
Chapter 910 Yuan Yu Furnace Acquired, Everything Ready
"I trouble you, fellow Daoist, to keep an eye on Fang Yi's dilapidated flying boat."
A gentle smile appeared on Luo Yuzhou's wrinkled face.
"In order to gather information about the Ice Plains, Xuan Yang Mountain sent forty or fifty disciples to Huitong Mall, including several Core Formation cultivators."
I shouldn't intervene too early, lest I alert them. Once this is done, you can fulfill all your requests, Fellow Daoist."
Gao Shanfu was overjoyed. He bowed slightly and said earnestly, "Brother Luo, don't worry, it's not just that broken flying boat."
Even if it's Fang Yi himself, I'll personally go and keep a close eye on this ungrateful wretch."
"Haha, then I'll have to trouble you, fellow Daoist," Luo Yuzhou said with a smile.
After a short while, the cave returned to calm.
Luo Yuzhou frowned and closed his eyes slightly, his hoarse voice like the cry of an old eagle.
"Mi Ku, Gao Shanfu, and I are three great masters working together."
Even if Fang Yi possesses the abilities of the late-stage Core Formation realm, so what? Can he possibly fight three opponents alone?
His eyes were sharp as a hawk's, peering through the churning spirit creatures at the stern of the Earth Phoenix Ship, his killing intent swirling around him, a chilling aura settling over him.
"The Master of Xuanyang Mountain?"
A third-tier superior puppeteer?
"And he also practices spiritual healing?"
"Ha! You've ruined my Zoroastrian cause! Spare my life!"
Night fell, dark clouds obscured the moon, and a biting wind howled, all blocked by the legal restrictions raised by Huitong Mall.
Jade palaces and magnificent buildings.
Inside the top-floor attic, jewels gleamed and gold shone brilliantly.
The jade Pixiu can be vaguely seen carrying a treasure basin on its back. The basin is slightly open and inlaid with ingots, green coins, silver coins, and jadeite inside and out.
"We still can't find the location of the spiritual acupoint. This shouldn't be the case!"
In order to determine the location of this spiritual aperture, Master Tongbao asked True Lord Yuehe for help; he was a grandmaster of feng shui.
"Um?
Has Junior Brother Yu Xi resolved Fang Yi's matter at Xuan Yang Mountain?
Hu Yuzhao, dressed in a robe adorned with copper coins, unleashed a burst of spiritual light. As the magical restrictions circulated, an archway appeared.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Yuzhao." Wearing a bluebird-patterned robe and a star-shaped crown, Yuxi entered the pavilion and bowed respectfully.
As the scroll of legal documents unfolds, tiny characters outline the contract.
"Senior brother, this is the agreement reached: in addition to the Crimson Essence Pearl, you will receive a mid-grade third-tier Wood Essence Treasure."
My junior brother also promised to find a mid-grade treasure furnace for Fang Yi.
"A mid-grade treasure furnace?" Yu Xi frowned slightly, his voice turning deep.
"This mid-grade treasure furnace requires special spiritual materials and is difficult to refine. It can be used in many arts, including alchemy, artifact making, medicine, and array making."
Its value surpasses that of ordinary high-grade magic treasures. Why did Junior Brother Yu Xi allow it to be given away?
The jade seal gave a wry smile and said helplessly:
"That Fang Yi of Xuanyang Mountain is cunning; he even secretly contacted the True Man Chi Ni of Medicine King Valley."
To avoid any unforeseen complications, the junior brother offered an additional mid-grade furnace cauldron before the contract could be signed.
"Medicine King Valley Holding Mud?"
"Qing Sui Lao Gui's own junior brother." Hu Yuzhao's expression softened, and he nodded slightly.
"Having another source of income will greatly benefit our friendship with the other cultivators in the alliance."
Especially since these Hundred Thousand Mountains produce unique demonic spiritual objects, many alchemists and weapon makers are stuck at their bottlenecks, lacking just a spark of inspiration.”
He chuckled and then said, "As for providing additional benefits, my Four Seas Business Alliance controls the trading platform, so it's impossible for us to lose money."
At most, we'll earn a little less.
Relieved that his senior brother hadn't pursued the matter, Yu Xi said, "This matter of a mid-grade furnace cauldron is beyond my authority; I'll need your intervention, senior brother."
"It will be quite troublesome to retrieve a mid-grade furnace cauldron within seven days."
Hu Yuzhao paced back and forth, feeling a bit of a headache. The cauldrons that the several weapon-refining masters in the Four Seas Merchant Alliance had been crafting had already been reserved by cultivators.
Moreover, they either have powerful backers or profound cultivation levels; it would be quite troublesome to allocate some resources to Fang Yi.
"Within seven days, a cauldron will be prepared, and with the Crimson Essence Pearl, Fang Yi intends to advance his Body Refinement cultivation to the Core Formation stage."
Ironically, this led to a lucky break. As the spiritual veins advanced, a cold wave was about to rise in the icy plains.
The greater one's magical power, the greater their advantage in the subsequent struggle for opportunities. "Seven days."
Hu Yuzhao patted his storage bag, and a gilded decree covered with copper coin patterns flew out and hovered in the air.
"How about this?"
Junior Brother Yu Xi, take my decree and go to the Six Locks Secret Treasury to retrieve the Yuan Yu Furnace and deliver it to Fang Yi.
To avoid any unforeseen complications, let's first solidify the matter of the demonic spirit."
"Yuan Yu Furnace?" Yu Xi looked surprised. "That's one of the seven treasures that will be the grand finale at the auction five years from now, and it has six layers of protective restrictions."
My senior brother had previously refused offers from several alchemy masters because of this, and Luo Yuzhou of the Fire Worship Sect had also visited me several times.
"Sold to Fang Yi so easily?"
He looked reluctant, then said, "In the Jade Palace and the Alchemy Room, there is also a Purple Cloud Furnace with four layers of protective barriers."
This is also a mid-grade furnace cauldron; why not give it to Fang Yi?
No need.
Our Sihai Business Alliance's motto is win-win cooperation; we can't be too unseemly in business.
Moreover, Fang Yi also controls the source of spiritual herbs in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
Hu Yuzhao said in a deep voice, "Even without the Yuan Yu Furnace, there are still six treasures left."
As for Luo Yuzhou?
Times have changed. I can still afford to offend a third-tier high-grade alchemist.
Five days later.
Earthly Phoenix Pavilion, Flying Bird Pavilion.
The young monk, dressed in a gray robe with a hood obscuring his face, entered the pavilion like a ghost.
"Greetings, Sect Leader Fang Yi."
"This is the precious Jade Cherry Wood Heart that my martial uncle promised, along with the mid-grade Yuan Yu Furnace."
Liu Jing bowed slightly, his eyes filled with deep envy.
'This is a Yuan Yu furnace!'
With six layers of protective restrictions, it is among the most precious treasures even among mid-grade furnace cauldrons.
Fang Yi's cultivation level is even lower than mine, yet I've already made my move.
He then patted his storage bag, and two beams of spiritual light shot out, landing on the jade platform respectively.
A spiritual light emanated, accompanied by the convergence of pure life force, and the spirit revealed its true form.
A seven-foot-long piece of green and red wood, covered with growth rings, and a fist-sized, dark cauldron, engraved with scenes of fishing, woodcutting, farming, and reading.
“The protective barrier of this Yuan Yu Furnace is no ordinary mid-grade magic weapon.” Fang Yi glanced at the Jade Cherry Wood Heart and then his gaze fell on the Yuan Yu Furnace.
He could sense the six treasures shining brightly without even activating his divine sense.
"Not the four protective barriers?"
Fang Yi muttered to himself, his eyes darkening slightly. The generosity of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance was beyond his expectations.
He reached out and gripped the dark furnace tightly, and then his palm sank, the coldness seeping from the furnace wall into his muscles and bones.
"A cauldron forged from cold-attribute spirit iron?"
"good!
good!"
Fang Yi beamed with joy, his heart overflowing with happiness.
Compared to fire-attribute spiritual objects used for refining furnaces, or unconventional furnaces like the Five Poisons Cauldron, this Yuan Yu Furnace made of cold-attribute spiritual iron best suited his taste.
Having cultivated for two lifetimes, his most skilled methods for refining poisons and using puppets were the Blood Refining Method.
The most advanced blood refining technique produces puppets and spiritual poisons that are in harmony with his will.
Aside from the fact that it cannot be passed down or used by others, it has no drawbacks.
"Whoosh!"
To avoid any unforeseen complications, Fang Yi flicked his sleeve, sending out six spirit-sealing jade boxes that landed on the tea table.
Within his dantian, the silver phoenix pattern breathed in and out, and the [Four Nine Mysterious Technique] was activated, lighting up one acupoint after another.
"This is the elixir of immortality that I promised the demonic cultivator."
There will be another chapter tomorrow (2000 words). Things are almost done with the end-of-year busyness; I'll try updating to 6000 words per chapter.
