Taoist companion helps me cultivate immortality

Page 14

This is a weapon refining genius in the conventional sense.

It's different from him who is an artificial genius accumulated through several lifetimes.

She was born with this talent.

"Senior, how old are you this year? What is your spiritual root? Do you have a Taoist partner?"

"...I am twenty-five years old. My gold, fire and wood spiritual roots are all top-grade. I have never thought about finding a Taoist partner."

Gongshu Yan, who was immersed in refining equipment, answered casually.

Lin Ye understood.

Damn, why doesn’t this spiritual root grow on me!

Good talent and resources.

But it also illustrates another problem, that she should not be unable to reach the level of a fourth-grade weapon refiner.

This guy really doesn't have much time left.

As a genius, he left no trace in history.

Maybe he died quietly in a robbery.

Gongshu Yan suddenly woke up and found Lin Ye holding his armpits with both hands, so he quickly struggled to break free.

"I saw you were in a daze, so I wanted to help you up."

Lin Ye explained.

"Oh." Gongshu Yan glanced at Lin Ye and saw that he had a dignified attitude. He thought that he should not be thinking about anything strange.

Damn it, I’ve never been in such close contact with a male monk before, and I got accidentally scared.

Trying hard to look indifferent, Gongshu Yan looked away and said:

"...There is still more than half a year before the Qingyang Sect's weapon refining competition begins. Taking advantage of the Ascension Conference, the Weapon Refiners Guild wants to open a branch in the Qingyang Sect."

"It will open soon, you can go and sign up."

"Except for those high-ranking officials who are complacent, the Equipment Refiner Guild is still a pretty good place."

Lin Ye had heard of the Equipment Refiners Guild during the Dark Ages.

A short-lived organization that no longer existed a thousand years later.

However, its historical reputation is still good.

Lin Ye nodded: "Can I find a senior in the guild? I have many skills I want to learn."

"Of course!"

Gongshu Yan said, "There are other third-grade weapon refiners stationed at the guild. I want to provoke them so that they will agree to compete with me."

"Then during the competition, I can steal their techniques..."

Lin Ye was also helpless.

This style of behavior...

You must have offended a lot of people a long time ago.

It’s a bit difficult to avoid death!

"If it weren't for this matter in the guild, the Ascension Conference would still be held in half a year. I wanted to go somewhere else to catch another equipment refining competition before it started. This is my normal life."

"How about it, have you ever thought about going with your senior?"

Gongshu Yan was just pretending to be sophisticated, and her overly abrupt turn of events in the invitation exposed her inner nervousness.

Lin Ye didn't know if she was joking, so he smiled and said, "Okay, Senior, please take me away!"

I felt very heavy when I said this.

Follow the talented weapon refiners and participate in weapon refinement competitions in various places.

Come to think of it, it feels pretty good.

Too bad, she's almost dead!

Chapter 16 Moving

Failed to become a fourth-grade weapon refiner.

She should have been able to do it...

It is very likely that he died in the Jindan stage.

Lin Ye frowned. In the Dark Ages, there were many ways a cultivator could die, but in Gongshu Yan's case, personality factors probably played a major role.

Possibility one: someone disliked her and killed her.

The second possibility is that he was killed by a strange monk.

Possibility three: force majeure, such as death from a large-scale attack by a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Lin Ye is most worried about the third possibility.

He couldn't help but care about it. Gongshu Yan would have to stay in Qingyang Sect for more than half a year, or even a year. This time was not short compared to her remaining life expectancy.

Is there some conspiracy behind this conference?

Caused everyone to die?

Did Gongshu Yan die here?

What the hell!

The possibility is not very high, but once Lin Ye thought about it, he couldn't help feeling uneasy.

The Qingyang Sect is too small, and there are countless sects of similar size. Lin Ye’s mental age is limited, and he was not able to remember information of this level of detail in his previous life.

However, given the scale of the Ascension Conference, it should be impossible for the Qingyang Sect to wipe out all the foreign cultivators in one fell swoop.

Think of this.

Lin Ye calmed down.

If Gongshu Yan died because of his personality problems, I could have given him some advice.

Getting to know such a genius could bring him long-term and lasting benefits, not to mention that she seemed quite easy to talk to now.

If it's the latter two...perhaps, the only thing left is to change her original route of activities.

Leaving the eastern part of East Shenzhou?

This is unlikely to be a successful persuasion.

Gongshu Yan thought highly of Lin Ye's skills and nodded: "If we bring you along, we should be able to take the top two spots. That's pretty good when I think about it..."

"That's not right. You have to prove your strength first! Get second place in the Ascension Conference!"

Lin Ye quickly said: "Okay, okay..."

“What if I aim for number one?”

"Hehe, keep your fantasy, I like it very much."

"Anyway, I'm glad to meet you this time." Gongshu Yan gritted his teeth and said, "There are too many mediocre people in the field of refining. I don't even dislike them, but they dislike me first! How hateful!"

"The only pity is that I can't copy your technique."

"Before I learned..."

"Don't be someone else's disciple!"

Gongshu Yan poked Lin Ye's nose, got on his flying sword and was about to leave.

Lin Ye panicked and said quickly: "Senior, help me!"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"I am just a casual cultivator. I am afraid someone will rob me after I became famous this time. Senior was also a casual cultivator, so you must know this clearly!"

"So, I want to ask for something to protect myself..."

"Ah~" Gongshu Yan reacted: "Of course no problem."

She took off her coat, then hesitated: "No, this is women's clothing..."

"Forget it, I'll give you this."

Gongshu Yan threw an exquisite token to Lin Ye, on which was written the word "wan".

Lin Ye blinked.

Wait, isn’t this the token of Wanbao Tower?

So we are going back to the same place?

Gongshu Yan said, "This is the token of Wanbao Tower. I am their guest official. If I hang this token on my body, anyone with a discerning eye will recognize it."

"I'm giving you something to protect yourself..."

“Alas, I just broke through to the third-grade weapon refiner not long ago, and I only made a spiritual weapon for myself.”

What to do...

"You turn around."

Gongshu Yan hesitated for a long time and said with a red face.

"Okay, senior." Lin Ye turned around in confusion.

After a rustling sound, Gongshu Yan whispered, "Here's the armor."

She was lowering her head, holding a panties in her hand.

A...third-grade spiritual weapon!

It is white and of simple style.

Male cultivators can also wear it, probably.

Lin Ye was stunned.
