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

"Sister, you..."

Yu Caixing's face turned ugly: "Our Yu family's rules forbid us from passing on our weapon-refining techniques to others, unless they are family members. You're not asking me to pass on my weapon-refining techniques to him, you're selling me out to him."

"Don't."

Zhang Lingshan said, "I'm just observing your weapon crafting; I'm not interested in you personally. Don't misunderstand."

"You're starting to complain now?"

Yu Caixing snorted coldly, clearly dissatisfied.

Yu Caiyue said, "You are now the head of the Yu family. You can change it if you want. Why follow the ancestral rules? The family precepts also say that women cannot refine weapons or be the head of the Yu family. How come you have done both?"

“That makes sense,” Zhang Lingshan said.

"What's it to you?"

Yu Caixing couldn't help but roll her eyes and snorted, "For my sister's sake, I can let you observe once."

"Alright, then let's observe the forging of a top-tier magic weapon. Have you ever forged a top-tier water-type magic weapon before? I can help you refine the medicinal herbs. Although helping you, as a weapon refiner, won't be considered a formal assessment, it will still give you some forging experience. How about it?"

Zhang Lingshan said.

Upon hearing this, Yu Caixing's heart stirred. She frowned and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Okay, but you have to restore my sister's water-type spiritual root first. Moreover, you have to nurture my sister to the point where she can help me refine a top-grade water-type magic weapon."

Zhang Lingshan said, "If we raise your sister to that level, she will be frequently borrowed by Huo Ran in the future. Are you sure you want to do that?"

"Do not."

Yu Caixing shook her head and said, "My sister won't be transferred, but you will be transferred."

"Oh?"

Zhang Lingshan looked surprised and asked knowingly, "Why do you say that? I am a esteemed weapon refiner. Manager Ying also said that after I become a weapon refiner, I will not be seconded by the Alchemy Pavilion."

Yu Caixing chuckled and said, "You're really joking. What noble weapon refiner? They're just servants."

"You have to go wherever others need you to go."

"If you can truly restore my sister's water-based spiritual veins, then you are the most suitable person to help Huo Ran refine pills. Does Huo Ran still need to borrow other people?"

"You should know that there are many weapon refiners like you all over the world, it's not surprising at all."

"But Huo Ran is a treasure of the Alchemy Pavilion. We can often borrow water-type fire-starting boys from our Weapon Forging Pavilion. How can you compare to him?"

Yu Caixing spoke without any politeness or mercy, and of course, he wasn't just referring to Zhang Lingshan, but also to himself.

They're all just lackeys.

"You seem to see things very clearly. According to what you've said, I can't help your sister. Not only will it not benefit me, but I'll also be temporarily transferred away."

Zhang Lingshan sighed.

Yu Caixing said, "No. In my opinion, whether you help my sister or not, you will be temporarily transferred away because you have already exposed your abilities to Gu Nanxiang. So, you have no choice. As long as Huo Ran is willing, he will definitely take you away. But you can delay."

How to delay?

"Naturally, you can stall for time by focusing on my sister. As long as you show that you can restore my sister's water-based spiritual veins, but the restoration is very slow, you can stall for time."

Yu Caixing spoke eloquently.

Zhang Lingshan said, "Aren't you delaying your sister's recovery?"

"Humph."

Yu Caixing sneered: "Dare you say you don't think that way?"

Zhang Lingshan laughed heartily: "Having such a smart younger sister like you is a blessing for your older sister. It's a pity that this can't prevent her from being temporarily transferred, which shows that we have no human rights here. How about this, you completely pass on the art of weapon forging to me, and we can be family from now on, helping each other, which is worse than fighting alone."

"So you still have feelings for me after all!"

Yu Caixing shouted loudly, a cold smile on his face, as if to say, "I knew all along what tricks you were up to."

Zhang Lingshan chuckled: "You're so beautiful, it would be disrespectful of me not to have feelings for you. Alright, enough of this nonsense. I'll accept the Clear Spring Pill. Let's begin."

"Shall we start now?"

Yu Caixing exclaimed in surprise.

Zhang Lingshan said, "Now is the time. You can wait, but your sister can't. Considering that I will be observing your weapon crafting later, I will also allow you to observe me nourishing your sister's water-based spiritual veins. How about that? Doesn't that show sincerity?"

Zhang Lingshan knew that even if he forbade Yu Caixing to watch, Yu Caixing wouldn't listen, so he took the initiative to give him face.

"Hmph, at least you've shown some sincerity."

Yu Caixing snorted coldly, then looked at Qi Shuyan and said, "There's an extra person in the weapon-refining room, so we can't lock the door. We have to get this old man out and have him guard the door so that no one can disturb him."

Zhang Lingshan laughed upon hearing this, then looked at Qi Shuyan and said, "Old Qi, she looks down on you."

"Ugh."

Qi Shuyan sighed, "I'll go guard the gate. But when we're refining a top-tier water-type magic weapon, you have to count me in too."

"Absolutely."

Zhang Lingshan said.

Yu Caixing shouted, "No, why is another person being added? I didn't agree, so your decision doesn't count."

Zhang Lingshan said, "You are in charge of weapon crafting, and the two of us are assistant weapon crafters to help you. Aren't you satisfied? You should know that this is the closest you've ever come to becoming a weapon crafting master in your life. You don't even know how to cherish it. How foolish!"

What nonsense are you spouting?

Yu Caixing snorted, "You should say this is the closest you've ever come to becoming a master weapon refiner."

"No matter what, Lao Qi must participate. Otherwise, how can we leave one spot vacant for your sister? Your sister can't restore the water-type spiritual veins in time, so how can she refine the molten liquid?"

Zhang Lingshan said, leaving no room for compromise in his tone.

Yu Caixing hesitated for a moment, then softened when she saw her sister's pleading eyes. She snorted, "Well, if you're lucky, I'll be merciful and let you all watch."

Now that the agreement was reached, Zhang Lingshan wasted no more time. He swallowed a Clear Spring Pill and placed his right hand on Yu Caiyue's back.

Wow.

Yu Caiyue felt a cool, refreshing stream enter her body, making her feel incredibly comfortable, as if she had just received rain after a long drought. She couldn't help but let out a soft moan, her face flushed, and her breathing immediately began to stabilize, no longer as chaotic as before.

Yu Caixing, who was standing to the side, was extremely shocked when she saw this scene. She never expected that Zhang Lingshan would actually have the effect of nourishing other people's water-based spiritual veins.

No wonder Huo Ran couldn't forget him.

If I were Yu Caixing, I would also never forget her.

But Zhang Lingshan, that fool, actually revealed such a miraculous ability; wasn't that just courting death?

Even if he manages to stall, he will eventually return to Huo Ran's hands and become Huo Ran's personal fire-starting servant.

How foolish!

If I, Yu Caixing, possessed this ability, I would absolutely hide it deep within my heart and never let anyone know about it.

If Zhang Lingshan knew Yu Caixing's thoughts, he would definitely laugh at her naivety. She had never been there. If she had gone to Huo Ran's place, she would know that unless you are truly depleted by the water-based spiritual vein, you will definitely discover the special nature of the water-based spiritual vein.

and so.

Whether you hide it or not makes no difference.

If it's not discovered today, it will be discovered later.

Since I've already gotten all the benefits I could, I haven't lost out.

Now that Yu Caiyue has brought back so many bottles of Clear Spring Pills, I can improve myself again.

After absorbing a large amount of flame crystals, his Qi and Blood Tree, which is the fire elemental root, grew stronger, and his corresponding water elemental root also grew stronger.

Now, with the replenishment of the Clear Spring Pill, the water-type spiritual root has grown stronger, and the Ice and Fire Pool is forcing the fire-type spiritual root to grow stronger.

The two sides are caught in this positive game, and the benefits to themselves are unimaginable to outsiders.

'Although I cannot directly break through to the True Immortal realm yet, with my current strength, I am not without the ability to fight against a True Immortal expert.'

Zhang Lingshan thought to himself.

He figured that Huo Ran was probably only at the True Immortal realm, and he wasn't afraid of him at all.

If we really can't avoid it, we still have the strength to fight back, so what is there to fear?

Moreover, Huo Ran has a high status, so how could Zhang Lingshan, who can help him refine the Pure Lotus Pill, not have a high status?
As a water-elemental spiritual root prodigy, I am a rare existence.

When Zhang Lingshan was refining pills before, he secretly recorded Huo Ran's refining method and told Zhang Zixin, who was in the page space in the Nangbao World, about everything from beginning to end.

According to Zhang Zixin, Huo Ran was a good-for-nothing, and the Pure Lotus Pill he refined was garbage.

However, if Zhang Lingshan is willing to cooperate, the Pure Lotus Pill can be upgraded to a higher level.

This is Zhang Lingshan's trump card.

Once he reveals this trump card, his status will not be lower than Huo Ran's; in fact, Huo Ran even asked him to help refine the Pure Lotus Pill.

This is why Zhang Lingshan could boldly reveal the secret of nourishing water-based spiritual roots to Gu Nanxiang, without fearing that Gu Nanxiang would reveal it to others.

"That's enough. The effects of this Clear Spring Pill have reached their limit. You can come again later, one pill a day. Don't rush it."

Zhang Lingshan withdrew his right palm and said calmly.

"That's it?"

Yu Caixing said with some dissatisfaction, "I know you want to stall for time, but this is going too far."

"It's not about stalling for time, it's for your sister's health. Her water-based spiritual root is on the verge of depletion; we can't over-nourish it, or it will kill her. It's like a starving ghost suddenly being allowed to eat freely—it will only choke to death, not become a strong man. Do you understand?"

Zhang Lingshan explained.

Yu Caixing snorted: "Of course I understand the logic, but I think you're doing it on purpose."

Zhang Lingshan said, "What you think is your business. Anyway, I guarantee that I will eventually strengthen the water-based spiritual vein for your sister. As for how to do it, that's my business and none of your concern."

After saying that, he changed the subject and said, "Alright, let your sister go out and rest. You should keep your promise and start refining a top-grade water-type magic weapon."

"Are you going to start refining it now? Aren't you going to let me do any preparation?" Yu Caixing said.

Zhang Lingshan said, "There's nothing to prepare. I'll refine whatever you want for you."

"Humph."

Yu Caixing snorted coldly, "But I'm going to my alchemy room, which I'm more familiar with. You stay here, close the door and rest."

That's all.

She then took Zhang Lingshan and Qi Shuyan back to her seventh weapon-refining room.

"The Dragon Spring Sword, a top-tier water-based magic weapon, is now being forged."

Standing before the main refining furnace, Yu Caixing immediately entered a meditative state, her expression serious and unsmiling.

Zhang Lingshan told Qi Shuyan to stand aside and not move, and that he would help Yu Caixing refine the molten liquid by himself.

Because, according to the Book of Artifacts, he is still unable to refine first-class materials to 75% purity.

Therefore, only Zhang Lingshan could take action. Qi Shuyan was there to observe and learn, to provide him with experience and lay a solid foundation for his future promotion to silver medal.

"You refined it all by yourself?"

Yu Caixing frowned slightly, but didn't say much. In any case, she only allowed them to observe once. If they failed this time, it was their problem. She had done what she was supposed to do.

Therefore, failure is actually a good thing, as it saves the Yu family's weapon-forging methods from being exposed.

So she waited and saw what would happen.

Zhang Lingshan's flame intensity was extremely stable. He knew exactly what temperature to maintain for each material, and there was no hesitation whatsoever. Moreover, he refined each material to a purity of 75%, not a bit more or less.

'Before, he could see outside from outside the weapon-refining room, so his spiritual sense was already no weaker than mine. Now, judging from the intensity of his flames, they are equally formidable. I don't think he's even using his full strength yet; just how strong are his flames?'

Yu Caixing was increasingly surprised as she looked at it.

Zhang Lingshan herself had never heard of this place, which shows that she has only been here for a few years. However, the intensity of her flames and the strength of her divine sense are no weaker than those of Yu Caixing.

Is this guy human or a monster?
What did it eat to grow up like this? How can it be so powerful and possess the ability to nourish the water-based spiritual veins of others?

How come you get all the good things? You're a genius among geniuses, a prodigy among prodigies. How can people not be envious and jealous?

No wonder Pei Daoming was able to successfully refine it before. It seems that it wasn't Pei Daoming's skill, but his good luck in encountering the exceptionally talented Zhang Lingshan to help him.

Unfortunately, Zhang Lingshan was already a weapon refiner. Even if he wasn't, he would have been seconded to Huo Ran's side.

I guess I won't be able to enjoy the same good fortune as Pei Daoming.

If Yu Caixing knew that Zhang Lingshan's strength was far weaker when he was under Pei Daoming's command, she would be even more surprised, her jaw would drop.

Their growth rate is so fast that it's no longer enough to describe them as prodigies.

"Okay."

After refining the tortoise shell gold, Zhang Lingshan said, "I'm going to nourish your sister's water-type spiritual root now. Old Qi, help me control this molten liquid. When I come back, I'll have her perform the first stage of the mixed solution. I want to observe it."

"I will keep my promise without your orders."

Yu Caixing gave a stubborn snort, but in her heart she thought to herself, "This guy is actually thinking about nourishing my sister's spiritual root while refining materials."

Is it better to say you value your reputation, or that you don't take the refining process seriously?

Or.

You're way too confident, kid.

There's no one on the entire third floor who can refine first-class materials as casually as you.

Half a day passed.

Zhang Lingshan returned, closed the door, and said, "Let's begin now." (End of Chapter)
