âCongratulations on reaching the Dao Realm!â Yang Junshan sincerely congratulated the man in front of him.
The Eight Treasures Daoist laughed bitterly: âLittle friend Jun Shan, your congratulation makes this old manâs hair stand on end. This old man should also congratulate you for advancing to the Dao Realm at such a young age. You have a bright future ahead of you.â
After saying that, the Eight Treasures Grandmaster laughed first, followed by Yang Junshan who also laughed embarrassedly.
In the oven room, Yang Junshan paid a visit to the Eight Treasures Daoist who had just come out of seclusion and successfully advanced into the Dao Realm.
Last time, Yang Junshan heard from the Adept Jiangxin that the Eight Treasures Daoist had already advanced into the Dao Realm.
Now that the mountain breaking mace was slumbering in his dantian, Yang Junshan didnât have to worry about it causing a large scale disturbance in the immortal palace anymore, so he specially visited it here.
Yang Junshan laughed bitterly when he heard this: âI am ashamed. Junior originally used the Pure Spirit Gourd to break through the bottleneck of the Dao Realm. Compared to senior, who has broken through the Dao Realm step by step, junior is still a lot more frivolous.â
The Eight Treasures Daoist laughed softly. âA shallow, newly ascended Dao Realm expert was able to easily defeat an established Daofather and kill him?â Furthermore, this person is a Grandmaster of spell formations! â
Yang Junshan said embarrassedly: âSenior is exaggerating, the reason why I was able to succeed in my formation was also thanks to the help of many senior Dao Patriarchs, how can I compare to Senior? Before senior reached the Dao Realm, he was already known as the âEight Treasuresâ, and now Iâm afraid that senior has already reached the level of a Grand Dao Refiner.â
The Eight Treasures Daoist pointed at Yang Junshan and laughed: âIt is said that you, Yang Junshan, are usually too modest.
Seeing Yang Junshanâs stunned expression, the smile on the Eight Treasures Daoistâs face became even wider, and he said: âThere arenât even thirty Master Refiners in this cultivation world, or at least twenty people. But what about Master Refiners? An array master has a much higher status than a refining master. Moreover, a refining master is only capable of refining treasures, but an array master has the ability to independently construct a Dao array. How can the two be in the same league? â
In the world of cultivation, other than refining, the names of the different stages of a technique were actually the same as the different grades of a cultivatorâs cultivation. For example, a pill concocted by a pill master for Martial Realm Cultivator to consume was a spirit pill, whilreasure concocted by a pill refiner was suitable for a majority of true cultivators. Only by concocting a pill of the Dao rank could one be considered a pill refiner, and the criteria for an array master was the same.
Compared to them, however, the standards for refiners were much lower. They were usually able to refine a magical equipment that could be called a refiner, and refine a spiritual weapon that could be called a master.
On one hand, this division of blacksmiths showed the relative difficulty of forging, but on the other hand, it also made blacksmiths slightly weaker than cultivators of the same level. For example, blacksmiths tended to have a slightly inferior status compared to alchemists, but they were also much higher ranked than alchemists; grandmasters of blacksmiths were also inferior to grandmasters of formations, but they were also far more respected than grandmasters of formations.
The Eight Treasures Daoist continued, âIâm afraid you donât even know the sensation that will occur in the cultivation world after the Five Elements Lightning Light Great Formation is completed, right? In comparison, the fact that you destroyed Daofather Xuan Yuan upon just entering the Dao Realm is nothing. â
âEh.â Yang Junshan blinked a few times in ignorance, and asked: âBut what news did Senior hear about in the Immortal Palace?â
The Eight Treasures Daoist nodded. âRecently, many powers have been secretly collecting information regarding you, especially regarding your identity as a formation master. These powers might not have any ill intentions towards you, but itâs best to be careful.â
âThank you, senior, for informing this junior of this matter.â Yang Junshan thanked the Eight Treasures Daoist seriously.
Daoist Eight Treasures waved his hand. âI wonder why little friend has come to find me?â
Yang Junshan smiled as he reached out his hand. A three inch square tiger head jade seal appeared on his palm, and he said: âThis time, junior has come foequest, this is juniorâs life treasure, and wants to borrow seniorâs wondrous technique to improve his quality.â
The Eight Treasures Daoist took a glance at the Mountain Monarch Seal and praised: âWhat a great treasure. Regardless of whether it is in terms of quality or cultivation, it iop choice. Iâm afraid it doesnât have to be in terms of cultivation to become a daoyin apparatus.â
Yang Junshan was secretly impressed by the Eight Treasures Daoistâs eyesight. With just a glance, he was able to find out more than seventy percent of the Mountain Monarch Seal. However, he still handed the Mountain Monarch Seal over for the Eight Treasures Daoist to pass on.
After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, he slowly opened his eyes and said: âThis treasure is very good. Although it has been upgraded several times, it has only been refined by two people, the first person should be the person who refined this treasure at the beginning, although his technique is somewhat young and tender, but he is better than the original person who has an extremely deep talent in the art of equipment forging and the quality of the spirit materials he uses in addition to making the magic treasure extremely thick; the second person should not only have the skills of two people, but three people.
By the side, Yang Junshan was already extremely shocked. With just a few moments of the treasure in his hand, he was able to completely recount the process of the Mountain Monarch Sealâs growth, as if he was the one who created the treasure himself.
Seeing Yang Junshanâs stupefied expression, the Eight Treasures Daoist did not mind. He had seen similar situations more than once, and had long gotten used to it, in the process of upgrading the quality of treasures, if he could not have a systematic and clear understanding of the root of the treasures, only blindly upgrading the quality of the treasures, then not only would his failure rate increase during the upgrading process, it would also weaken the foundation of the treasures in the future.
âThen what does little friend Jun Shan plan to do next, and upgrade this treasure tigh-grade treasure? Your magic treasure is extremely well-nurtured, and your spirit is extremely intelligent. It can very easily be raised to the upper rank of the treasure, but as a precaution, this old man will first take a look at the quality of the spirit materials you have prepared. â
Before he came into contact with Yang Junshanâs treasure, he was clearly a modest and gentle person. When he began to discuss the matter regarding artifact forging, he exuded an aura that was not sharp, but was absolutely confident in himself. Every sentence he spoke had a charisma that others couldnât help but believe in.
However, this time, Yang Junshan was obviously out of his expectations. âSenior, how about directly upgrading it above rank to a daoyin apparatus?â
The Eight Treasures Daoist was startled, he turned and looked at Yang Junshan, and confirmed: âdaoyin apparatus?â
Yang Junshan stared at him and nodded, then said: âThatâs right, a daoyin apparatus!â
However, he smiled bitterly and said: âLittle friend, donât make things difficult for this old man. This old man thinks that his smithing skills are the best among the Grandmasters, but after all, this old man is going to advance to the daoyin apparatus. This old man is not a Grandmaster.â
Yang Junshan could clearly seint of fanaticism flash past the eyes of the Eight Treasures Daoist, and he immediately said: âDo you mean that this juniorâs treasure does not have the power to be promoted to the daoyin apparatus?â
Eight Treasures hesitated for a moment, then said: âLittle friendâs magic treasure is extremely well-nourished, the spirit of the artifact is full, there is indeed the possibility of advancing to a daoyin apparatus.â
Yang Junshan then asked: âDid senior refine the daoyin apparatusâs legacy?â
âThen, does Senior not participate in the refining of daoyin apparatus?â
The Eight Treasures Daoist said in a deep voice, âThis old man has participated in the refinement of daoyin apparatus at least three times. One failure, one success, one failure is still unknown, but the probability of success is higher. It might take me several years to polish and nurture my cultivation to know the result.â
The refining of daoyin apparatus naturally could not be done overnight. It would at least require three to five years of meticulous care and care, and at most, it would last for several tens or even hundreds of years.
No matter if it was daoyin apparatus or Dao Formation, it was not something that could only be done by a master refiner, and only a master refiner could make it. Although the cultivation world was vast, the number of master refiners could not exceed five fingers, and the number of master refiners was not that high, so if the refining of daoyin apparatus or the arrangement of a Dao Formation required these people to do it, then even if they had three heads and six arms, it would still be impossible.
In fact, most of the daoyin apparatund formation arrays in the cultivation world did not come from these people, rather, they were formed from the combined efforts of many grandmaster refiners or formation masters. The difference between them and the master refiners and formation masters was that the latter was able to complete the refinement and arrangement of the daoyin apparatus or formation array on his own, but the former, because he did not have the ability to take charge of the whole situation on his own, could only be careful and avoid losing his rapport with them.
With the top-notch attainments of the Eight Treasures Daoist, Yang Junshan would definitely not believe that he had never participated in the refining of daoyin apparatus before, and the fact was the same. Not only had the Eight Treasures Daoist participated in this, he had also participated in the refining of daoyin apparatus three times.
Yang Junshan laughed: âThen why doesnât senior plan on completing a set of daoyin apparatusâs advancement personally?â
âArenât you afraid that this old man will destroy your magic treasure?â
Yang Junshan laughed again: âIf thatâs really the case, then why did senior linger in the Taihang Realm for such a long time? Was it only because of the toughness of his body? Is the experience of being able to refine eight treasures, and to participate in the refinement of daoyin apparatus three times not enough to allow senior to have the confidence to try refining a daoyin apparatus? â
It was not that the Eight Treasures Daoist did not dare to refine it, it was just that he did not wish for anyone to give him this opportunity. However, the daoyin apparatuhat refined them were no small matter, and if they were to fail, the owner of the treasure would definitely become enemies with the artificer. He had to explain the formidable relationship between them to Yang Junshan.
âTeacher said that this old man only hahirty percent chance of success!â
The Eight Treasures Daoist said solemnly, âHowever, if I can add two more assistants, my chances of success will be a bit higher. However, at the very most, it wonât exceed fifty percent.â
âWho is it?â Yang Junshan asked.
âOne of them is someone you know, he is this old manâs disciple. As for the other person, youâd better find the refiner who once refined this magical equipment and bring him here.â
Yang Junshan hesitated for a moment, then nodded: âAlright!â
The Eight Treasures Daoist glanced at him and said, âThen take a look at the spirit materials that you have prepared. If the quality of the spirit materials are good enough, it will increase your chances by at least ten to twenty percent.â
Yang Junshan nodded, and took out the sound stone first.
In Yang Junshanâs hands, there were two sound waves stones. One was from Cao Xunâs secret plane, and the other was from the Stone Demon, Taoist Mo Ling.
The rhyme stone from Cao Xunâs secret realm looked like it could break at any time. The Dao patterns on it were dim, but they were extremely concentrated. On the contrary, the rhyme stone from Taoist Mo Ling was much rounder and looked extremely good.
Yang Junshan did not know which one was better, so he took it all out and let the Eight Treasures Daoist choose.
When the Eight Treasures Daoist saw that Yang Junshan immediately took out two rhythms stones, he laughed bitterly and shook his head. Others normally wouldnât be able to find one rhyme stone, but Yang Junshan took one right away, but he didnât hesitate to pick one from Cao Xunâs Secret Realm, and said: âOne is enough, this one is much better.â
Yang Junshan nodded, and then looked around himself. Seeing that the artifact forging room of the Eight Treasures Daoist was spacious enough, he finally opened a spatial door in his puzzled gaze, and a gigantic stone arm landed on the floor of the artifact forging room.
When the Eight Treasures Daoist saw this stone arm, he sucked in a breath of cold air, his gaze radiating with light. He said, âSpirit Race Stone Demon, and also the arm of a Dao Ranked Stone Demon. These are all earth stone essences!â
The Eight Treasures Daoistâs experience and experience truly made Yang Junshan admire him, but the shock that Yang Junshan brought him was far more than just this. Following the continuous expansion of the spatial gate, a huge body fell from within onto the ground of the artificer, almost filling the space of the artificer that the Eight Treasures Daoist had created, to the point that the two of them had no choice but to hover in midair and talk.
âThis, this, thisâŠâ Daoist Eight Treasures was so stunned he couldnât speak.
Yang Junshan laughed: âA complete Spirit Race Dao Realm Stone Demon, I believe Senior has a better chance of winning.â
Eight Treasures let out a sigh after hearing that, and said: âI have also heard about the Infernal domain blood capital in the past. I had long heard that the avatar of Daoist Ziyuan was injured by a Dao Realm Stone Demon, but there was no news of the Stone Demon after that, so I never would have thought that it would actually die in the hands of my little friend. Young friend, your actions are completely out of everyoneâs expectations, itâs really amazing! â
Yang Junshan could only smile.
However, the Eight Treasures Daoist continued, âA complete Dao Realm Stone Demon. If this old man is not seventy to eighty percent confident, then it would be a waste of a heavenâs treasure. However, if I were to refine a low rank daoyin apparatus, then it would be a waste of a heavenâs treasure!â
âWhat does Senior mean?â
The Eight Treasures Daoist said, âYou should keep the other one as well. If thereâs a chance âŠâ âHey, just in case!â
