Chapter 227 – The Heart of Friendship
”I wonder if senior is interested in refining weapons?” The short, thick youth hesitantly uttered such a sentence, causing Han Li to be greatly stunned!
”What do you mean?” Han Li was a bit puzzled.
”Could it be that you still want to teach me the art of refining weapons!” Han Li just casually asked!
”Senior guessed it! The only thing I can take out of my body is the art of weapon refining!” The youth said somewhat grimly.
Han Li was speechless as he listened! He only wanted to get a few more sets of array flags, array disks, and the like, who wanted his art of weapon refining. Besides, who did this youth think he was that his weapon refining skills were so rare! One must know that there were too many cultivators in the Immortal Cultivation World who knew the art of weapon refining!
”However, due to the ancestral training, my juniors can only hand over the organized weapon refining tips to Your Excellency, and cannot personally teach this art!” The youth immediately added with a stutter.
Han Li blinked, even more speechless!
Seeing that Han Li had been silent and seemingly unwilling after hearing his suggestion, the youth couldn’t help but look nervous, and not caring to conceal his identity, he hurriedly told the truth: “My family ancestor used to be the Divine Soldier Sect’s Weapon Refining Elder, and the art of weapon refining has long since reached its peak! In my refining skill, is the family ancestor hand in hand to teach out. By handing over the weapon refining tips to Your Excellency today, the latecomer has actually already violated the ancestral training! As for how much you can gain from it, it all depends on your own destiny! But I can assure you that it is definitely all untold secrets that have never been circulated in the Immortal Cultivation World!”
Han Li finally moved when he heard that the youth was a descendant of the Divine Soldier Sect’s weapon refining elder!
Wasn’t this Divine Soldier Sect one of the three great righteous sects of the Yuanwu Kingdom alongside the Heavenly Star Sect and the Ten Thousand Myriads Guan! The weapon refining techniques under its sect and the formation techniques of the Heavenly Star Sect and the talisman path of the Ten Thousand Myriads Guan were renowned in the Immortal Cultivation Worlds of the several nearby countries.
In that case, it seemed that the other party’s weapon refining tips were indeed different from the ordinary! Although one would not learn it in all likelihood, keeping it in one’s hands was also a bargaining chip that might be used at some point.
Han Li had made up his mind in his mind, but he still opened his mouth and asked again, “This set of Upside Down Five Elemental Formation deployment artifacts of yours, can it really be improved again?”
”It definitely can! That friend of mine has long since excelled in the way of formations, and with the addition of my refining skills, there won’t be any major problems with improving this set of Formation Deployment Artifacts!” The youth saw Han Li ask this question. Knowing that the other party was in all probability agreeing, he immediately rejoiced and patted his chest in assurance.
Han Li nodded and said no more. Instead, he opened the lid of the box in his hand, and a medicinal scent full of spiritual qi immediately filled the soundproof enclosure. After the youth lightly sniffed it for a few moments, and looked at it carefully with both eyes for several times, the color of joy in his eyes flourished, and he nodded his head repeatedly to express his satisfaction.
Seeing this, Han Li smiled faintly. Reaching out, he handed the box out.
Upon seeing it, the youth quickly reached out to receive it with joy. But when he grabbed a corner of the box and tried to pull it back. The box with the elixir was as if it had taken root in Han Li’s hand, not moving! This caused the youth to be dumbfounded, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
Han Li couldn’t help but sigh when he saw the other party raise his head and look at himself somewhat at a loss for words.
It seemed that this one was truly a young man from a worldly family who hadn’t experienced the elements! Does he still not understand after such an obvious hint from himself?
Unable to do anything about it. Han Li had no choice but to move his lips and directly pick the other party’s brains, ”Shouldn’t you take out that set of magic weapons and refining tips, as well. We can hand over the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other! Isn’t it more appropriate to do it this way?”
”Oh …… what senior said is that senior forgot in his haste!” Only then did the short and thick youth suddenly come to his senses, letting go of the box in his hand with a blood-red face, while his hands scrambled to pull out a stack of things from the storage bag in his arms.
”There are eighteen array disks and thirty-six array flags here, a full set of formation artifacts for the Upside Down Five Elements Formation. Just follow the method described in this jade slip. Lay them out in an unbroken pattern, and the formation can be put into effect immediately. As for this Cloudy Heart Art, it is the weapon refining experience that I have had for more than twenty years, and I hope that after reading it, senior will try not to circulate it to the outside world, so that it will not be sought out by the Divine Warrior Sect’s people. Because many of the refining methods in here are the secrets of the Divine Soldier Sect’s sect!” The youth explained in great detail and gave Han Li a not-so-small piece of advice.
As Han Li listened to these words, he felt a great deal of goodwill towards this youth! In his heart, another thought popped up out of nowhere!
After hesitating for a moment, Han Li immediately put the box in his hand and stuffed it into the other person’s arms before receiving this stack of things from the other person’s hands.
This sudden and perverse action of Han Li instead left the short and thick youth bewildered for a moment, somewhat at a loss for words.
”Cloudy Sky Mind Technique! Cloudy Sky is your first name, right? I wonder, what is Your Excellency’s surname?” Han Li changed from the coldness he had started with, and after receiving the item, he became kind to the youth.
”My surname is Qi, Qi Yunxiao! Does senior have any other orders?” The youth hesitated for a moment, but still spoke up, but didn’t know what Han Li’s intentions were.
”Nothing, in fact, I just wanted to tell you a little bit, although I’ve received this book of insights of yours, I’ll seal it with a sealing technique and won’t touch it within five years. If within these five years, you can really improve this set of spells for me, then I will return the original book without flipping through a page, what do you think?”
”Really? Then the late generation thanks a lot, I really appreciate it! Regarding the improvement of the Upside Down Five Elemental Formation, please rest assured, senior! Even if senior’s friend doesn’t succeed in improving it, I will persuade him. Let him or her set up a truly great formation for senior on the ground!” As soon as the youth heard Han Li’s words, he rejoiced and hurriedly assured.
Seeing this, Han Li smiled faintly as he picked up the Cloudy Skies Insights and placed it between the palms of his two hands.
Only to see that with the low incantation sound in Han Li’s mouth, a series of silver runes suddenly surged out between his hands, hovering on his palms for a while before drilling into the book and disappearing! And at the same time, the book, Cloudy Skies Insights, flashed with silver light and actually emitted a faint silver light. It caused the entire book to suddenly silverize, no longer able to be flipped open in the slightest!
”Alright, the seal is complete! Now leave your spiritual energy on the seal. This way, when you return it in the coming year, you’ll know whether or not I’ve broken the seal!” Han Li threw the sealed book over, causing the youth to catch the book in surprise.
After the youth opened his mouth and paused for a moment, he still stomped his foot and really left his spiritual energy on the seal. Then, with a mixture of gratitude and doubt in his eyes, he returned the book to Han Li.
Han Li at this time, will be the other party’s state of mind speculation of eight or nine, know to want to get the other party’s trust at once, this is impossible! But wait until a few years later, really will be sealed intact this book handed over to the other side, I think it will be able to and youth and his array master friend, climb the friendship.
Of course, the other side is not really worth his heart to befriend, this will have to go through a long time together, to know!
So, Han Li put away the book, asked the youth for a way to contact, then drifted away without a word of nonsense, leaving this place.
The youth who stayed in place was still in disbelief. This Thousand Year Spiritual Pill had arrived so easily! He fiercely pinched the hard pill box, a look of excitement and confusion mingling in his eyes.
Han Li, on the other hand, was in a great mood as he walked on his way to the refinery house store.
Qi Yunxiao’s art of refining weapons and his friend’s status as an array master were much stronger than a dead book! If he could make a connection, it would definitely help him in his future cultivation journey! Han Li was certain of this!
Han Li finally returned to the store that had taken over his business, and the white-haired old man was anxiously awaiting his arrival.
When he saw that Han Li really didn’t break his promise and reappeared, the shopkeeper immediately smiled and let the black man serve tea and fruits for a while, and personally accompanied Han Li to sit at the table, calling him a senior. Hearing Han Li such a thick-skinned person, all hidden face hot up.
Next, Han Li first took out the back shells of those centipedes in front of this old man. Making this old man’s expression twitch, he immediately picked up a small piece and carefully stroked and recognized it.
”At this point in time, the shells of first grade upper class poisonous insect type demonic beasts are indeed very good materials for refining weapons! Especially in the outside world where demonic beasts are becoming less and less, poisonous insect type demonic beasts are even more rare.” The wrinkles on the old man’s face stretched a bit as he said with a smile.
The material on the other party’s body was just as he expected, not those broken copper or some miscellaneous things, but even the very rare poisonous insect demonic beast’s hard shell! This was an excellent material that was very suitable for making armor or shield-type magic weapons.
As far as he estimated, these insect shells could take a hit from a top-ranked magic weapon without much harm before refining! If refined successfully, naturally, it could easily rank among the top-ranked magic weapons.
The white-haired old man more and more happy to see, beautifully picked up these shell skin to move. However, he was stopped by Han Li!
”Shopkeeper, don’t be in a hurry! There are still some materials left out!” Seeing this old man, so furtive, Han Li couldn’t help but frown a bit, somewhat wondering if he had found the wrong refiner!
