Lord of Time: From a Five Elements Cultivator to a Master of All Daos

Chapter 371 Commissioned Blood Sacrifice

Inside the cave, Yuan Caiqin sat cross-legged on a cushion, with beads of sweat the size of beans on her forehead, cheeks, and back.

Luo Jia's control over the latter's body was extremely intense, and it was no longer something that this Nascent Soul body could easily endure.

Now that he was out of sight of everyone, the side effects immediately became apparent.

At this moment, the spiritual energy within Yuan Caiqin's body was in chaos, and even her breath was barely noticeable.

A pill flew out of his storage bag and fell into his mouth. After refining it for a while, his expression seemed to relax.

When he opened his eyes, a voice completely different from Yuan Caiqin's came out of his throat:
"The body of the Nascent Soul is indeed too weak."

In order to escape from the Death Shadow, Luo Jia made many attempts, but unfortunately they were all useless.

He had never expected that a mere refined corpse could be so agile, so agile that it seemed to have its own consciousness.

"This Five-Color Taoist is also a strange man. In addition to his excellent weapon and alchemy skills, he also has this method of refining corpses.

"It's a pity that I was unable to obtain any spiritual energy from that sixth-level spiritual land, otherwise it would have been possible to get rid of this damn incense in one fell swoop."

Luo Jia had seen similar methods as the Soul-Seeking Incense more than once in the clan.

“We can only kill time in this fifth-level spiritual land.

"Forget it. Since we have found some peace for the time being, let's just go with the flow. It won't be too late to leave the Shahe Gate after we have completely gotten rid of this incense."

The cave where Yuan Caiqin is located is close to where Bai Changhong is. With the help of the latter's east wind, it is a fifth-level spiritual place, not a fourth-level spiritual place where ordinary Nascent Souls are located.

Yuan Caiqin sighed, slowly closed her eyes and regulated her breathing. Inside her spirit ring, a green demon dragon rolled up its scales and fell into a deep sleep.

After several years, Wei Zhong's fingertips engraved the last spiritual pattern on the small sword in front of him. The spiritual patterns on the entire magic sword flickered and then went out together, leaving only a little fluorescence.

"It's done!"

Wei Zhong put down the small sword. In front of him were three magic swords of similar size and style, but different colors.

This is the sixth-order low-grade magic weapon that Wei Zhong has refined these days.

In order to reduce the chance of failure, Wei Zhong specifically used the same refining process, and the final result was the three magic swords on the ground.

"It's of average quality among the lower-grade products, and it's good enough for the job."

His spiritual sense probed into the storage bag that Xiang Yangbao gave to Wei Zhong, and found that half of the spiritual materials were still left. This was the tolerance given by the Chiyang Palace to its disciples, but since Wei Zhong had never failed once, there were still so many spiritual materials left.

“Having a high success rate is also a skill.”

Wei Zhong unceremoniously moved these spiritual materials into his storage bag.

This is the unwritten rule of the Chiyang Palace. The higher the skill level, the easier it is to make money from these small details.

At the same time, the three magic swords were put away, and a talisman was also transmitted to Wei Zhong's weapon refining room.

When he took a look, he found that it was Yang Bao of Wei Zhongyue. He was here to hand over the magic weapon to the other party in order to complete a small task that the disciples of the Five Elements Immortal Sect have to do once every thirty years.

When he came out of seclusion, he saw two beams of light hanging outside the Shahemen formation.

He waved his hand to open the passage, and Yang Bao and Qin Zhihui entered together.

Wei Zhong was surprised that this fellow from Shuiyun Palace was here, but he maintained a polite smile on his face:

"Fairy Qin has arrived, and our humble home is honored!"

After that, he invited the two of them to fall into the Lingfeng Mountain and treated them to spiritual wine and delicious food.

At the same time, Wei Zhong handed the three magic swords he had just successfully refined to Yang Bao.

The latter picked up the three swords and looked at them, then nodded slowly:

“Although the three swords are somewhat similar, they are of different species and of above-average quality, meeting the conditions agreed upon in the palace. These three magic swords will be delivered to you, and Fellow Daoist Wu Se will receive a small reward.

"For the next twenty years or so, unless something unexpected happens, you will not be summoned by the sect or sent on mandatory missions."

Wei Zhong nodded with satisfaction when he heard this.

Qin Zhihui watched this scene as a bystander and exclaimed:
"Fellow Daoist Wu Se's weapon-refining skills are truly top-notch. He was able to refine such a consistent magic sword, and it only took him less than eight years..."

Wei Zhong didn't know whether the other party was praising him or mocking him, so he didn't answer, but just maintained a polite but awkward smile.

After the sect's mission was delivered, Wei Zhong talked about the search within the sect.

The two shook their heads, without much joy on their faces. Wei Zhong knew that the Five Elements Immortal Sect had not gained much in these years.

"That demon dragon is hiding very deeply. It has not shown its head in eight years. Even Senior Xu's soul-seeking incense has not been found to have any signs of being activated..."

"That hidden wood demon dragon is no ordinary person. According to the information revealed by those captured demon dragons, this dragon is an extremely outstanding magic genius within the demon dragon clan.

“Although his cultivation is not that great, he has made a profound study of the various forbidden techniques within the demon dragon clan, and has mastered many techniques.

"Even when several demon dragons sneaked into the Dragon Hidden Secret Land, it was all because of his efforts. Otherwise, they would not have been discovered by several seniors until the moment they robbed the rare treasures..."

"Prohibited method?"

Seeing Wei Zhong's interest, Qin Zhihui talked about what she had seen and heard:
“The bloodline hierarchy within the demon race is strict, and the various ancient methods do not require the skills required by our human race’s methods, but the bloodline in the body.

"The more compatible the bloodline is and the more noble one is, the higher the compatibility with this kind of method will be, and the easier it will be to practice.

"The wood-type Azure Dragon is one of them."

Wei Zhong was very interested:

"So, the blood of the Azure Dragon is extremely pure?"

Qin Zhihui put down the wine glass in her hand and nodded:
"That should be the case, but I estimate that even if it is pure, it is not that pure, otherwise the Northern Territory Demon Dragon Clan would not send the other party for such a dangerous mission."

Qin Zhihui had no idea that this was an order sent by the eighth-rank demon dragon himself, so the various tribes in the northern border would not dare to slack off and send out a few guys with mediocre skills.

The dragon clan had high hopes for this team, but plans could not keep up with changes.

No one expected that in such a small secret place as Longzang, there would be six Hedao masters, including the master of a hall of the Five Elements Immortal Sect and the evil Wanhua Sect.

Wei Zhong stroked his chin:

"This method is indeed somewhat peculiar. It can actually evade the detection of the Hedao. I wonder if it is possible for my human race to perform such a method?"

"That's not impossible," Yang Bao explained, "I've heard that there are extraordinary people who can collect dragon materials to perform some of the magic of the demon clan...

“But this is just a rumor after all, and can’t be taken as true.

“Moreover, the so-called forbidden magic of the demon clan may not be very powerful. My Five Elements Immortal Sect is backed by the Immortal Palace, and most of the magic within the sect is passed down from the Immortal Realm, which is no worse than the magic of the demon clan.

“Rather than being interested in that, Fellow Daoist Wu Se, it would be better for you to practice the method inherited by my Immortal Sect.

"In a few hundred years, you will be able to return to the sect. By then, as a fellow Taoist, it may not be a bad idea to acquire one or two high-level techniques."

Hearing Yang Baoyou's advice, Wei Zhong laughed:
"It's just a casual remark. I'm used to being idle and always like to grab opportunities as much as possible. Fellow Daoist Yang, please forgive me."

The three of them talked for a while, and Qin Zhihui revealed her true intention. She handed over a jade slip and said slowly:
"Fellow Daoist Wu Se has superb skills in refining weapons. I happen to have a method for refining a magic weapon. I wonder if you can help me forge one?"

Wei Zhong looked quietly at the jade slip handed over by the other party without saying a word, but picked it up to take a look.

With a quick glance, he exclaimed in surprise:

"Treasure from the cave?"

The other party smiled awkwardly:
“It’s not so magical as a cave heaven. It’s just using the Void Stone to amplify the power of the barrier, achieving the effect of half barrier and half cave heaven.” As early as the human world, when a magic weapon reached the fourth level, it could possess the power of a barrier. It was almost a combination of a trapping array and a killing array. It was simple to activate, but it consumed more of the cultivator’s spiritual power.

But after arriving in the spiritual world, Wei Zhong discovered that such so-called barrier treasures were not prevalent, or the formation of the world's rules made it difficult to form the so-called barrier.

Most general magical weapons are just for simple attack and defense.

At this moment, Wei Zhong still felt very novel to get this refining method from Qin Zhihui.

"The Sky Stone..."

Wei Zhong frowned and fell into deep thought.

After waiting for a while, Qin Zhihui asked:

"I wonder if fellow Daoist Wu Se has confidence in refining this magic weapon of mine? My requirements are not high, a sixth-order mid-grade one will suffice, but the power of this barrier must be preserved within the magic weapon..."

The jade slip records a special magic weapon called "Tianpu Umbrella".

It was originally of water attribute, but after the addition of the Void Stone, the entire magic weapon underwent a transformation.

Not only is it powerful, but it also has the added effect of creating a barrier.

Although Qin Zhihui only asked for a sixth-grade mid-level magic weapon, in Wei Zhong's opinion, the difficulty of refining this kind of rare treasure was far beyond the level of a sixth-grade mid-level one.

Sigh:
"To be honest with Fairy Qin, I am not sure about refining this treasure."

Turning to look at Yang Bao:

"How about Brother Yang give me a hand?"

The latter smiled and shook his head:

"I have already seen it. If it could be refined, I would have accepted it long ago. Why would I need to look for Brother Wu Se?"

"This..." Wei Zhong pushed the jade slip back and looked at Qin Zhihui, "Please forgive me, Fellow Daoist Qin. It's not that I don't want to make a move, but I'm really not sure. I'm worried that I'll waste your spiritual material."

Qin Zhihui frowned, a look of disappointment flashing across her face.

Wei Zhong suddenly heard Yang Bao's voice:

"Fellow Daoist Wu Se, don't be so hasty to refuse. Why not take this business first?"

Wei Zhong's expression slightly changed, and he replied via voice transmission:
“Is there some other explanation?”

"Hey, fellow Daoist, have you forgotten the protective wall you got from Senior Uncle Lan Shui?

"Senior Sister Qin is the disciple that Senior Uncle Lan Shui loves the most. It is not reasonable for you to directly refuse such a request for refining equipment.

“Even if I really can’t refine it, it’s good to think about the method of refining it.

"You can refuse it later."

"This……"

Wei Zhong looked thoughtful and said to Qin Zhihui:
"Fairy Qin, why don't you leave this weapon refining method with me? I will study it carefully. When my skills are improved in the future, it will not be too late to help you refine the weapon."

The latter's eyes lit up slightly:
"So good!"

The atmosphere eased again, and Wei Zhong asked a question at the right time:

"Why didn't Fairy Qin ask the people in the sect to help refine the weapon?"

As a dignified Mahayana sect, there are countless weapon refiners in the Chiyang Palace alone. How could there be few people among them who can refine such magical weapons?
“What Daoyou said is correct, it’s just a matter of time.

“The matter of the Dragon Hidden Treasure was urgent, and I didn’t have the opportunity to slowly look for candidates for the refinement.

"I just returned from completing a mission for the sect, and was brought to this Baifeng Spiritual Realm by my master."

Wei Zhong joked:

"Is there no fellow disciple present in the Red Sun Palace who can refine this thing?"

Yang Bao rubbed his hands embarrassedly:

“Really not…

“Those guys who are obsessed with refining weapons are unwilling to accept a mission like the Dragon Hidden Secret Land.

“Most of the brothers and sisters from the Chiyang Palace who came here this time are the competitive type, and few of them have superb weapon-refining skills.

"I do have some skills in refining equipment, but I am not familiar with this kind of magic weapon..."

Qin Zhihui nodded and added:
"After all, only Uncle Yang can master the art. However, I am just a mere Void Refiner. How can I ask Uncle Yang, who is so skilled in the art, to help me?"

What he said was true. With Yang Jing's status, even if Hedao came forward to ask him to refine a weapon, it would cost a lot of money, not to mention Qin Zhihui, a disciple of the Lianxu level.

The reason why he came to Wei Zhong for help this time was because he had heard that Wei Zhong was quite skilled in refining weapons, so he decided to give it a try.

The three of them had a good conversation, and when they left, Qin Zhihui left the jade slip behind.

Wei Zhong watched the two of them leave and looked at the jade slip in his hand:

"Even if I can't refine it, it's not bad to get a method to refine a rare treasure for free."

This treasure is extraordinary. If it can be refined, Wei Zhong can also use it.

After going into the cave to study it, Wei Zhong felt the complexity of the weapon refining method.

So he put it behind his mind, took out the various materials he had collected in the demon world, and started to make pills.

Outside the Longzang secret place, many Hedao gathered together.

"That little reptile is hiding too deep. It's no use delaying it like this."

Feng Yusheng echoed:

"Eight years have passed, and Fellow Daoist Xu's pet has not moved. It is very likely that he has successfully removed the soul-seeking incense.

"After searching all day, there will always be omissions. If we let him escape from Baifeng Spirit Realm, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack for us to find him..."

Everyone present had frowned.

Ouyang Yuheng rubbed his chin and looked at the four demon dragons that were imprisoned not far away:

"In my opinion, why not sacrifice the blood of these four demon dragons directly and see if we can find the location of the demon dragon through the blood connection between dragons?"

As early as when they were looking for the entrance to the dragon's hiding place, everyone had used this method.

"This is a good idea, but if it doesn't work, we will lose the last clue to the Five Elements Reverse Scale..."

Yang Jing calmed down:

"They are just a few little dragons. If we lose them, we lose them. We have been thinking about it all day, but to no avail. We might as well cast the spell earlier..."

Yang Jing has the highest level of cultivation and put forward his own opinions. The others all looked thoughtful, as if they were considering something.

Wu Renchu ​​made a timely statement:

"I have no objection to the blood sacrifice method. But if we find the five elements reverse scales, how should we distribute them?"

Everyone was silent for a while, only Fang Jingwan stood up and said forcefully:
"This treasure must be obtained by our Five Elements Immortal Sect..."
