Chapter 146: A Good Deal
‘A red hand?’
Mingshi Yin and Little Yuan’er were puzzled by this. They looked at their master who was deep in thought.
Lu Zhou kept nodding and shaking his head. After pondering for a mont, he said, “You’re dismissed.”
“Yes, master”
“Yes, master”
The two of them left obediently.
Lu Zhou did not think it was prudent to have them around. After all, he did not know what was in the box. If it turned out to be sothing wonderful, it might be awkward if they saw it. He brought the box into the hidden chamber.
Inside the hidden chamber.
Lu Zhou waved his arm casually. The box landed on the floor. He glanced at the system dashboard.
“Amorous Hoop.”
Ye Tianxin’s Amorous Hoop floated before him. It was glowing faintly.
A weapon that had acknowledged its master and activated its grade was clearly extraordinary even without any Primal Qi activating it.
Lu Zhou wielded the Amorous Hoop with his energy. He guided it into the groove on the box.
Clack!
The sound of sothing being triggered rang in the air.
A groove appeared before the box split in half. The two halves slid to the sides.
“Ding! You have successfully unlocked the mysterious treasure box. Reward: 1,000 rit points.”
“Obtained items: Ji Tiandao’s Peak Trial Card x1, Nirvana Sash, Refining Talisman x3, Six Recombinant Trigram Lines.”
Lu Zhou was taken aback. Since he transmigrated here, his heart had grown numb to emotions. However, he felt a slight excitent at this mont.
‘Ji Tiandao’s Peak Trial Card! Even if it only lasts for 30 minutes, this is still a terrifying ace up my sleeve! After all that bad luck, it seems like I’ve finally hit the jackpot!’
This was much more exciting than obtaining a double Warglaive of Azzinoth in World of Warcraft! Perhaps, Lu Zhou had completely imrsed himself in this character, his excitent was much more subdued compared to what he would have felt in his previous life.
Lu Zhou stared at the Ji Tiandao’s Peak Trial Card for a long ti. When he finally cald down, he muttered to himself, “I should learn from my mistakes and not use this unless it’s absolutely necessary.”
Then, he turned to look at the other items. “Nirvana Sash?”
“Dormant weapon, Nirvana Sash. Suggested owner: Ci Yuan’er.”
He had never seen a weapon like this before. Hence, he did not know what to think about the Nirvana Sash. However, since it belonged to his disciple, it was aningless for him to keep it. It was a piece of cloth, it would be awkward for him to wield it. A man’s weapon should be more masculine. This was good, he no longer had to fret about finding a weapon for Yuan’er.
“Refining Talisman. Can be used to refine heaven, earth, mystic, and yellow-grade weapons that have already recognized their owners.”
Refining weapons had always been a difficult task in the cultivation world. Those who killed for weapons would be troubled if the weapons they obtained were those that had already recognized their masters. A weapon that had recognized its owner usually had very high compatibilities with its original owner. If another cultivator wanted to break this bond and forge a new bond, they would have to refine the weapon.
The conditions for refinent were strict. It required the cultivator’s Primal Qi as the fire to re-forge it and a special energy stone used specifically for refining weapons. The energy stone would improve the weapon’s qualities, which, naturally, ant that they were rare and precious.
“Not bad.”
Lu Zhou suddenly recalled the heaven-grade weapon, the Life Cutter, that Mingshi Yin retrieved after killing Zhang Qiuchi. If he did not have the Refining Talisman, the Life Cutter would only be a mystic-grade weapon. If it was refined again and recognized a new master, it would beco a heaven-grade weapon.
“Life Cutter!”
Life Cutter hovered before Lu Zhou. At the sa ti, a Refining Talisman appeared in his hand. With just a thought, the Refining Talisman released a faint fiery-red glow in the space half a ter before him. It was as if tongues of flas were wrapping themselves around the hovering Life Cutter. This unique fla burned Life Cutter until it was completely red and sizzling hot.
Lu Zhou was slightly surprised by this. He had Ji Tiandao’s mories so he was quite knowledgeable. However, he did not recall seeing any refinent thod that employed this kind of fla in his mories.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
Life Cutter seed like it was about to lt. The Refining Talisman among the flas released so energy to maintain Life Cutter’s shape.
Lu Zhou was just wondering how long this process would take when...
“Ding! Refinent complete. Obtained a dormant weapon, Life Cutter.”
“It’s done?”
The speed of refinent exceeded Lu Zhou’s expectations. Usually, refining a heaven-grade weapon again would take half a year to five years. This was discounting the ti required to prepare the necessary materials. However, he had easily refined the weapon with the Refining Talisman. It was only natural for him to feel shocked.
Life Cutter was still hovering in midair. It was completely red now. However, as it cooled down, only a fiery-red tinge remained. Well, it seed like there was no need to plunge it into a bucket of water.
“Let’s leave it be for now...” Since Lu Zhou had Unnad, a weapon that could morph into any shape he liked, he was not overly interested in other weapons. He waved an arm and recalled Life Cutter.
Lu Zhou had used a Refining Talisman so he was currently left with two.
Lu Zhou turned his attention to the final reward from the treasure box. “Six Recombinant Trigram Lines...”
This avatar was sold for 12,000 rit points. However, he bought the mysterious box for 2,000 rit points! This was a good deal.
Lu Zhou equipped the Six Recombinant Trigram Lines without hesitation.
The Six Recombinant Trigram Lines avatar was an important symbol of maturity of a Brahman Sea cultivator’s cultivation base. It was a sign that the cultivator had moved past stabilizing their cultivation base.
This ant that Lu Zhou could channel his Primal Qi through his Extraordinary Eight ridians now.
Lu Zhou’s eight ridians had already been connected. Therefore, when the Six Recombinant Trigram Lines released its power, it imdiately raised his cultivation base to the corresponding level. Previously, he was in the pre-Brahman Sea Eight ridians stage. Now, he was a true cultivator with all Brahman Sea Eight ridians connected.
...
While Lu Zhou was improving his cultivation base, there was a slight disturbance in the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Little Yuan’er and Mingshi Yin had sensed Primal Qi from the hidden chamber.
Mingshi Yin was wiser now. He smiled faintly. “Little Junior Sister, there’s no need to check... Master must be trying out so other cultivation thods from another sect.”
Little Yuan’er blinked and asked, “Cultivation thods from another sect?”
“When soone connected their eight ridians previously, I thought there was an intruder... Fortunately, my only punishnt was being sent to the Cave of Reflection... Master is cultivating a cultivation thod from another sect. This disturbance is only at the Brahman Sea realm, at most.”
“Oh.” Little Yuan’er nodded.
“Don’t forget... Zuo Xinchan was sent to the Western Paradise by master’s Buddhist technique, the Fearless Seal,” Mingshi Yin said in a voice laden with awe.
“You’ve got a point, Fourth Senior Brother. I should go and cultivate...” Little Yuan’er felt that she was too lazy sotis. Even her master was working hard despite his old age. On the contrary, she spent her days idling away.
“Little Junior Sister, the path of cultivation is long, and you shouldn’t rush things. You have a rare talent. Who knows, your seniors might need your protection in the future,” Mingshi Yin said teasingly.
Little Yuan’er giggled, clearly pleased with the complint. However, her face turned solemn, and she said with a scoff, “I won’t protect you all!” When she finished speaking, she turned and ran away.
Mingshi Yin scratched his head and wondered to himself. He treated his little junior sister well enough, and he had not offended her. Why was she treating him with this kind of attitude?
At this mont, Zhao Yue hurried into the great hall.
“Fourth Senior Brother, there’s a disturbance in Tangzi Town. It seems like soone’s trying to oppose us.”
