Jidao Wusheng: I am invincible in my flesh and tear the weirdness apart with my bare hands

This man with thick eyebrows and big eyes is named Shi Yong.

When Jiang Yan came to help Pei Daoming recruit and select fire-tending boys, Zhang Lingshan learned from him that being Pei Daoming's fire-tending boy would be very beneficial, which is why he signed up for the selection.

At the time, Zhang Lingshan promised to treat Shi Yong to a meal if he was selected, but he was later seconded to the Alchemy Pavilion and never had the chance.

It just so happened that during a break from refining materials, she ran into Shi Yong, so she kept her promise and treated him to a bowl of spirit rice.

While they were eating and chatting, Shi Yong asked Zhang Lingshan what the notice posted in the Exchange Hall meant and who he was looking for. Zhang Lingshan then mentioned Song Yi and even drew a portrait of him for Shi Yong with his divine sense.

Shi Yong immediately patted his chest and said that as long as Song Yi was still on the third floor, he would find him as soon as possible.

This is not.

He kept his promise and indeed found it.

Zhang Lingshan immediately followed Shi Yong's footsteps and rushed to a weapon-refining room, where he saw Song Yi lying on the ground with a deathly pale face, barely breathing.

'That idiot.'

Zhang Lingshan cursed inwardly.

This guy clearly suffered severe mental exhaustion while forcing himself to continue refining the weapon, which is why he ended up in this terrible state.

The only way to save him right now is with the Divine Sense Crystal.

"Shi Huogong, please look after him for me while I go exchange for Divine Sense Crystals."

Zhang Lingshan left with a single sentence and immediately rushed to the Exchange Hall.

Fortunately, I haven't had time to spend the merit points I've accumulated during this period, otherwise I wouldn't have enough to exchange for a single Divine Sense Crystal.

All I can say is that Song Yi was incredibly lucky; he wasn't meant to die.

Meeting Zhang Lingshan was a testament to the great merit Song Yi had accumulated in his previous lives.

“Zhang Huogong, given Song Huogong’s condition, I’m afraid he doesn’t have the ability to refine the Divine Sense Crystal.”

Shi Yong couldn't help but say.

Zhang Lingshan said, "Don't worry, we cultivate the same technique and are of the same mind, so I can help him refine it. Please trouble Shi Huogong to close the door for me to prevent anyone from coming in and disturbing us."

"Don't worry, I promise I won't let anyone disturb me."

Shi Yong immediately closed the door from the outside.

The door to the weapon-refining room was designed to be locked, so Shi Yong didn't need to guard it. But whether it was out of kindness or because he had made friends with Zhang Lingshan and Song Yi, Shi Yong insisted on standing guard at the door.

So good.

After all, even if the weapon-refining room is locked, someone knocking on the door from the outside will still affect those inside. With Shi Yong guarding it, some trouble can be avoided.

Inside the weapon-refining room.

Zhang Lingshan held the Divine Sense Crystal in his left hand and placed his right hand on Song Yi's head, then spat a mouthful of blood onto Song Yi's head.

This serves as an introduction, using the mental tempering method that Song Yi taught him as a starting point to link to Song Yi's sea of ​​consciousness.

now.

Song Yi was completely unprepared, and his entire sea of ​​consciousness was under Zhang Lingshan's control. If Zhang Lingshan wanted to plant a mark in it to turn Song Yi into his slave, Song Yi would be helpless and could only submit to his will.

However, Zhang Lingshan disdained to do so.

Putting aside the fact that Song Yi's mental tempering method was of great help to him, and that he owed Song Yi a favor, even without this incident, he had no grudge against Song Yi, so why would he turn him into a slave?
'The aura of resentment within the Divine Sense Crystal is extremely heavy, accounting for at least 90%. Even if Song Yi hadn't been injured, let alone if his mental strength were damaged, refining it wouldn't be easy.'

Zhang Lingshan thought to himself.

For example, Gu Nanxiang was much stronger than Song Yi, but it still took her quite a while to refine the Divine Sense Crystal, which shows that the Divine Sense Crystal is not so easy to refine.

But with Zhang Lingshan's help, things can be simplified at this point.

Because Zhang Lingshan could completely devour the resentment energy within the Divine Sense Crystal, making no waste whatsoever.

The remaining ten percent of pure, aura-free divine sense can be sent into Song Yi's sea of ​​consciousness so that he can make good use of it to restore his divine sense.

In order to expedite Song Yi's recovery, Zhang Lingshan first extracted one-tenth of his pure divine sense and sent it into Song Yi's sea of ​​consciousness before severing the connection with Song Yi's sea of ​​consciousness and beginning to slowly devour the remaining nine-tenths of his mixed resentment.

Time flows slowly by.

Zhang Lingshan's mental strength also gradually increased.

Sudden.

He felt a sudden jolt, as if his mind had become incredibly clear. With his eyes closed, he felt as if he had everything around him under his control.

Even through the door of the weapon-refining room, he could see Shi Yong standing outside.

'Has your divine consciousness broken through?'

Zhang Lingshan was shocked and overjoyed.

I never expected to break through like this without even realizing it.

I've been busy refining materials and accumulating merit points lately, and I haven't felt that I've improved much, so I haven't specifically checked the panel.

Who would have thought that, under the daily practice of Song Yi's mental tempering method, his own mental strength would still make considerable progress.

Today's Divine Sense Crystal is the final push that ignited the breakthrough of the Immortal's divine consciousness.

Open the panel.

[Spirit: Celestial Consciousness (Level 4: 0/10)]

As expected, they broke through.

However, unlike previous breakthroughs, where the divine sense would only reach the third level before transforming into the next stage, this breakthrough continues to upgrade without transforming into the next stage.

Either the requirements for the next stage are too high, and your current level is not high enough to break through.

Or is there no next stage?
Zhang Lingshan had no idea what the specific reason was. He only knew that after his divine sense broke through to the fourth level, his perception became much sharper.

It turns out that the immortal spiritual energy in the third level of the weapon refining pavilion is traceable, but he couldn't see it before and could only absorb the already limited immortal spiritual energy in a state of confusion.

However, with his current divine sense, he can detect the traces of these immortal spiritual energies, allowing him to absorb them more quickly without having to absorb the useless and impure energies around him.

In this way, the efficiency of cultivation can be increased many times over.

If my spiritual sense had been elevated to this level back in the Alchemy Pavilion, I could have gained even more benefits in the stairwell. It's truly a pity.

Zhang Lingshan sighed inwardly.

However, even if I wanted to improve my divine sense back then, I didn't have any divine sense crystals to exchange for.

Because in the exchange hall on the fifth floor of the Alchemy Pavilion, Divine Sense Crystals require 200,000 merit points, and they are not open to those on loan.

Even if he could afford it, he still couldn't buy it.

Therefore, Zhang Lingshan exchanged all his merit points for Clear Spring Pills.

Thinking about it now, Zhang Lingshan couldn't help but think to himself: "If there is no difference between the Divine Sense Crystals of the Alchemy Pavilion and the Weapon Refining Pavilion, and the fifth-layer Divine Sense Crystal is worth 200,000 merit points, while the third-layer Divine Sense Crystal is worth 2,000 merit points, then we can deduce that the fourth-layer Divine Sense Crystal is worth 20,000 merit points, with each layer multiplying by ten."

Why tenfold?
Zhang Lingshan guessed that it must be because the quality of the Divine Sense Crystal had improved.

The so-called quality improvement means, on the one hand, that there is more spiritual energy in high-quality spiritual energy crystals.

Secondly, this should be because the resentment mixed in the divine sense crystal has decreased, making it easier for people to absorb and refine it.

Based on this reasoning, Zhang Lingshan felt that the cost-effectiveness of high-grade divine sense crystals was actually reduced for him personally.

Because others fear those mixed resentments, he is not afraid; on the contrary, he can absorb them all.

So, instead of spending a high price to exchange for high-grade Divine Sense Crystals from the upper levels, it's better to get more of these third-level Divine Sense Crystals to refine. 'That's right, these low-quality, resentment-laden Divine Sense Crystals are actually more suitable for me; they're cheap and practical. Not exchanging for more would be a huge loss.'

Zhang Lingshan immediately made a decision.

He was going to make money like crazy on the third floor and exchange it for Divine Sense Crystals until they were no longer of any use to him.

In order to earn more money, one must quickly switch to the profession of weapon refiner.

'Song Yi, Song Yi, don't you dare let me down again!'

Zhang Lingshan glanced back at Song Yi and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Song Yi's condition had improved.

During Song Yi's recovery period, Zhang Lingshan lit the auxiliary furnace in the weapon-refining room and began refining materials.

There are three furnaces in the weapon-refining room: one main furnace and two auxiliary furnaces.

The main furnace surface has various shaped grooves, which are specifically used for refining and making vessel blanks, as Pei Daoming had done before.

The two auxiliary furnaces are no different from those in the main refining hall; they can also be used to refine materials and earn merit points.

However, no one would spend extra money to apply for a weapon-refining room and come here to refine materials, unless they are the kind of fire-starting children who have already accumulated enough merit points and are frantically refining first-class materials to try and get a silver medal.

For those top-tier bronze-level fire-starting boys, saving time is more important than saving merit points.

The environment in the weapon-refining room obviously improves their efficiency in refining first-class materials.

Zhang Lingshan is refining here not for efficiency, but mainly because he can't waste this weapon-refining room.

After all, Song Yi had already applied for this room, but the application was interrupted due to a failed weapon forging attempt, not because the weapon forging room was unusable.

We've already spent the money, wouldn't it be a waste not to use up all the time allotted for the weapon-refining room?

Besides, since I'm just sitting here idly anyway, I might as well refine more materials and accumulate more merit points.

'The refining of second-grade materials is becoming increasingly easier; breaking through to the fourth level of Immortal Divine Consciousness is indeed extraordinary.'

Zhang Lingshan thought to himself.

When he helped Pei Daoming refine weapons before, he was amazed by the strength of Pei Daoming's spiritual sense, which was probably more than three times that of his own.

Now that his divine sense has broken through, Zhang Lingshan feels that his current divine sense is probably not much weaker than Pei Daoming's.

According to Shi Yong, Pei Daoming had stayed on the third floor for over two hundred years, during which time he had refined countless divine thought crystals.

He had been on the third level for less than a year, and for half of that time he was seconded to the alchemy pavilion, wasting his time. He had only refined two pieces of divine sense crystals.

If Pei Daoming knew that his current divine consciousness was almost the same as his, he would probably feel extremely devastated.

'Since my spiritual power is about the same as Pei Daoming's, doesn't that mean that as long as I master the refining techniques, my refining skills will be similar to Pei Daoming's? Advancing to a silver-level refiner won't be a problem.'

Zhang Lingshan couldn't help but have this thought.

Everything is ready now, except for the final push.

Anyway, accumulating merit points is super fast now, so I can easily rent a weapon-refining room for years to refine weapons.

Moreover, with his strong mental fortitude, he was not afraid of failing halfway like Song Yi, and repeated defeats and re-fighting were not a problem.

In this way, you'll have countless opportunities to practice. Why worry about not being able to become a weapon refiner?

Zhang Lingshan became more and more excited as he thought about it, and the speed at which he refined the materials increased.

While Song Yi recovers, the more merit points I accumulate, the more opportunities I'll have to practice later.

How can you succeed without hard work?

Time flies.

Song Yi finally opened his eyes, his face filled with remorse, and said, "Dashan, I owe you another life. That Divine Sense Crystal should be worth two thousand merit points. I remember reading it, and I couldn't afford it at all. I never expected you to give it to me without hesitation. Once I return to my position as a weapon refiner, I will definitely refine weapons like crazy to repay you with the Divine Sense Crystal..."

"Stop!"

Zhang Lingshan interrupted Song Yi, saying, "By the time you finish refining the weapon to repay me with the Divine Sense Crystal, the flowers will have withered. From now on, you will assist me in refining weapons. After I become a weapon refiner, I will help you."

"what?"

Song Yi was stunned for a moment before saying, "You, you also want to become a weapon refiner. You can refine weapons. I remember you said you've never refined weapons before."

Zhang Lingshan said, "Practice makes perfect. With my strength, if I don't refine the weapon, wouldn't it be a waste of all my skills? Whether it succeeds or not, let's try first. Anyway, I have plenty of merit points, so I'm not afraid of failure."

"That's true."

Song Yi had no way to refute it, after all, Zhang Lingshan had casually taken out two thousand merit points to exchange for divine sense crystals and gave them to Song Yi to use without hesitation.

Of all the people on the third floor, whether they were fire-tending boys or weapon refiners, who would treat Song Yi like this?
Now that Zhang Lingshan says he wants to forge a weapon, if Song Yi doesn't cooperate, would he even be considered human?

Let alone Zhang Lingshan wanting to forge weapons, even if Zhang Lingshan said he wanted the stars in the sky right now, Song Yi would still cheer him on and wouldn't say a single word against it.

"But Dashan, when I failed to forge the weapon, I remember the two fire-tending boys I recruited both ran away. Did they call you to come and save me?"

Song Yi suddenly asked.

Zhang Lingshan then remembered Shi Yong and hurriedly opened the door, only to find that Shi Yong was still standing guard outside.

"Zhang Huogong, you're out. Is Song Huogong ready?"

Shi Yong asked with concern.

Zhang Lingshan said, "Old Song, it was this Brother Shi Yong who went to call me to come and save you."

Song Yi immediately stepped out the door, his face full of gratitude, and said, "It turns out that Brother Shi Yong helped me deliver the message. If it weren't for Brother Shi Yong calling Da Shan, I'm afraid I would be dead by now. I will never forget your great kindness. After I become a weapon refiner, I will definitely ask Brother Shi Yong to be my fire-tending servant."

"..."

Zhang Lingshan rarely rolled his eyes, but this time he finally couldn't hold back.

Old Song looks honest and simple, but I never expected him to be so good at making empty promises.

Instead of waiting until you become a weapon refiner and then asking Shi Yong to be your fire-starter, I'd rather ask him to be my fire-starter now.

"Brother Shi, I'm going to take over this weapon-refining room from now on. I'm going to start trying my hand at weapon refining. If you're free, you can join me. What do you say?"

"Me? Can I?"

Shi Yong looked overjoyed, his voice trembling.

After learning that Zhang Lingshan had been chosen by Pei Daoming, he knew that he had encountered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Even a fool would know that Zhang Lingshan is an absolute genius; otherwise, he wouldn't have been chosen by Master Pei as a mere third-level newcomer.

And yet, I had actually spoken with such a genius, and you could even say I had helped him.

Although he had only given the other party some information about Pei Daoming and it wasn't really helping, the other party said they would treat him to a meal.

Regardless of whether the other party is being polite or not, you absolutely cannot be polite to them; you must seize this opportunity.

Unfortunately, after Zhang Lingshan left Pei Daoming's place, he was temporarily transferred to the Alchemy Pavilion.

If you can't even meet them in person, how can you expect to make a living with them?

Moreover, going to the Alchemy Pavilion is not a good thing.

I thought I wouldn't have a chance to get a free meal with Zhang Lingshan, but to my surprise, after Zhang Lingshan returned from the alchemy pavilion, he became even more impressive and actually kept his promise to treat me to a meal.

If Shi Yong doesn't seize such an opportunity, he might as well be dead.

So, Shi Yong spent his free time wandering around the entire third floor, waiting for Zhang Lingshan to ask him for help. (End of Chapter)
