C227 Disappointment
The Snake's Kiss Bow was the second magical equipment that Yang Junshan possessed. He had originally obtained a mid-grade magical equipment from the treasury of the Changsun family, but after obtaining Yang Tian's consent, he still made a trip to the dark market of Mengyu County.
Seeing Yang Junshan playing with the snake-kiss bow in his hand, Ouyang Xuling pulled out a secret drawer from the side of the wooden box. He saw that there were three three-foot long white bone arrows inside, and said, "These three bone arrows were mainly made from the remains of this bow and some other spirit materials. If you use this bow, its power would be even stronger than a mid-grade magic tool, but you only have three chances in total."
Yang Junshan heard this and said, "Then how should I use this magical equipment? Should I make some special arrows as well?"
That's also fine, "Ouyang Xuling took the longbow from Yang Junshan's hands, and without using her spiritual power, she tried to pull it out with her physical body, but could only use most of it, thinking about how Yang Junshan had only used his physical strength to pull the bow out and didn't seem to have used too much strength, he shook his head and continued," Even without using arrows, it can still be done, first of all it's a magic tool, and then it's a bow. Cultivators can use their spiritual power as a guide to form an arrow to attack their enemies, but it's power is slightly weaker, and its speed is also extremely fast, making people unable to guard against it.
With that, Ouyang Xunlin gave a demonstration to Yang Junshan. She circulated her spiritual power, and this time, the Snake-Kiss Bow was filled with spiritual power, condensing it into an arrow on the bowstring held in her right hand.
Ouyang Xulin slowly dispersed the condensed spirit energy, and the condensed spirit energy arrows also gradually vanished into nothingness. Yang Junshan then asked, "I wonder if there are any spiritual arts inheritances related to this kind of magic tools in the cultivation world. If I could get them, I would be able to display the full power of this magic tool."
Ouyang Xinlin threw the bow back to Yang Junshan, and said, "You don't have to say, ever since you decided to make this magical artefact, I did inquire about the inheritance of the archery art in the Heaven Shaking Sect. Although the Heaven Shaking Sect doesn't have such an inheritance, but the cultivation world does have a similar magic art."
Yang Junshan's eyes lit up, "Really?"
"According to the records of the Heaven Shaking Sect, there are three types of spirit arts related to archery: the Wind Arrow Technique, the Rock Edge Technique, and the Golden Feather Spirit Art. However, there are very few magic tools like bows and arrows, because these spirit arts are considered unorthodox among the three thousand spirit arts. They are rarely passed down in the cultivation world, so it's not easy to find them."
Yang Junshan cupped his hands and said, "Thank you very much. As long as you know there is such a spiritual art, I will definitely pay attention to it."
"It's a pity that this magic tool only uses eight spirit materials. The quality can only be considered average amongst the low rank magic tools, and it's not your life magic tool either. If you want to upgrade it to a middle rank magic tool in the future, it'll be a bit difficult."
Yang Junshan smiled, "Let's talk about this later. Although the bow and arrow magic item is a little weak, it is enough for me to use the third level. If I can find the appropriate spiritual art inheritance, I can even use it at the late stage of the Martial Disciple realm."
With that, a yellow light flashed in Yang Junshan's hand, and the three-inch Mountain Lord's Seal appeared in his palm. She handed the magic tool in his hand to Ouyang Xulin and said, "Now that you have the Snake Kiss Bow in your hand, the Mountain Lord's Seal can easily let you level up. But how long does it take to upgrade this magic tool to a mid-grade magic tool?"
"If I don't do anything and just upgrade this magic tool, then two months should be enough time. After all, I'm not refining it again, but I'm the only true refiner in Shatian Village, so it's hard for me to not be distracted by other things. But I think three to four months is more than enough."
Yang Junshan felt that the time was a little long, but there was nothing he could do about it. Finding a trusted refiner wasn't easy, not to mention that the Mountain Lord's Seal was his personal magic item, so she didn't dare to be careless.
Ouyang Xulin said, "By the way, do you remember the artifact spirit that was formed when we were forging this Mountain Lord's Seal?"
Yang Junshan nodded with a smile, "Of course I remember. If it wasn't for the backlash of the spiritual power after the magical equipment was refined, I wouldn't have broken through the bottleneck of the Martial Man Realm so quickly."
"The appearance of an artifact spirit is not easy. Although the Mountain Lord's Seal is now just a magical tool and it's basically useless, if I can continue to nurture it, and if the Mountain Lord's Seal can be upgraded to a spiritual tool, or even a treasure, then the artifact spirit may have some unpredictable uses."
"Artifact spirit? Isn't the appearance of that kind of thing dependent on the will of heaven? And how should it be nurtured? "
The spirit of your magic tool is a mountain lord, perhaps you should find a few fierce tigers and use blood sacrifices to communicate with the spirit. However, even if it's an ordinary fierce tiger, it should at least be a savage beast.
Although he did not have any Savage Tigers, he had a Tiger Demon under his command that was about to advance into the Martial Saint Realm. Ever since he had kept the wrapped fish as his Undead Spirits, Tigress and Bao Yu'er had been cultivating in a secret room in the West Mountain that Wu Shuo had specially opened for him. It had been almost a year now, but he did not know if they had successfully advanced to the Martial Saint Realm.
"This kind of secret technique is only useful for communicating with artifact spirits. It doesn't necessarily work, and it doesn't matter if you believe it or not, so you don't have to worry too much about it. After the magic tool advances, it's more important to focus on nurturing it with your own spirit energy."
Pausing for a moment, Ouyang Xuling changed the topic and asked, "The border dispute will begin in a few days, but I have heard that although it will only be a joint meeting of the County Commands of Mengyu County, Hu Yao County, and Ling Zhang County, many other foreign merchants will also come. When that happens, it will definitely be very lively, and there will probably be many rare treasures that will appear at this meeting.
Yang Junshan casually said, "Okay, I am also planning on going to collect some suitable spiritual materials."
Ouyang Xunlin was surprised, "Collecting spirit materials?" Are you still planning on refining magic tools? "
Yang Junshan chuckled and said, "That's right, I will need your help later."
"What kind of magic tool is it? From your appearance, you seem to know the types of spirit materials that are needed to refine magic tools. This makes me curious." Ouyang Xinlin asked curiously.
"Go!" Yang Junshan stared into Ouyang Xuling's eyes and said, "I want to make a chess set. You know I'm an array master, I'm sure you know the importance of a chess set to a formation master."
"What, a game of chess?" He said, "But, but I don't know how to make them. The Heaven Shaking Sect does have the inheritance of refining methods, but only those who become a Master Refiner are qualified to have access to them. I can only make mid-grade magic tools, so I'm not qualified to make these, unless I can become a Successor Disciple."
Ouyang Xuling paused for a moment, and then she couldn't help but say, "The creation of chess is very complicated, even a low-rank magic tool chess is as difficult as a high-rank magic tool. Moreover, chess requires the close cooperation of an array master, otherwise it would be impossible to refine."
Yang Junshan laughed, "But what if I have a complete inheritance to craft chess?"0
Ouyang Xinlin was stunned, and stared at Yang Junshan. Yang Junshan had no choice but to take out the complete inheritance that he had won from Xiong Xizhe through the array formation. Ouyang Xinlin dodged it immediately, and his spiritual sense had already penetrated into the white jade board and checked the contents inside.
Yang Junshan didn't bother him and only watched him quickly flip through the information recorded on the jade board. After about the time it took to make a cup of tea, he saw Ouyang Xuling's attention retract from the white jade board and asked with a smile, "How is it?"
Ouyang Xu Lin sighed and said, "It's true. Although I do not know about the inheritance of chess, I still have the ability to determine whether it is true or not. chess is a special kind of refining technique, even the Ouyang Family does not have this kind of inheritance. I never thought that a powerful family in Mengyu County would actually be able to create such an inheritance."
Yang Junshan laughed: "Forty seven, forty-nine types of low-rank spiritual materials are needed to create a low-rank chess game. I have collected close to thirty of them by now, and there are still twenty that have not been gathered yet. This time, I will go to the testing ground to gather all the spiritual materials I need to create a chess game."
"No!"
He then continued, "As I've said before, the refining of array chess is extremely complicated, and even with the help of a ready-made array master like you, it's still extremely difficult to refine it. You have to know, it requires a perfect combination of forty-nine different types of spirit materials, and the total amount of spirit materials that a high-grade magic tool can fuse is no more than thirty-six."
Yang Junshan was startled and asked, "When will you be confident?"
Ouyang Xulin pondered for a moment and said, "I'll have to reach the 3rd level of the Martial Disciple realm at the very least. I won't dare to try until I've mastered the skill of refining a high-grade magic tool. I'm not sure if I can succeed."
On the way back to the border stronghold from Shatian Village, Yang Junshan's interest was clearly not too high. It was true that Ouyang Xu Lin was a genius refiner, but the difficulty of refining array pieces had far surpassed his current level of refining. Although Yang Junshan had handed over the complete inheritance of crafting low-grade array pieces to him, she was afraid that the time needed to get a set of array pieces would be delayed a lot.
Yang Junshan had just returned to the foothold when he saw Qi Zhou walking out. Qi Zhou quickly said, "Little Yang, you're finally back. Someone from another team came to look for you, saying they are from the same village."
Yang Junshan was excited, "Oh, where are they?"
Qi Zhou pointed inside the foothold and said, "She's still inside. You should go take a look. There's still one more beauty among them. Hey, by the way, can you tell me her name?"
