Chapter 486: Heavy Gratitude
At this moment,
Jiang Taichu and Jiang Yanxi walked into the alchemy room.
“How do you feel?”
Jiang Taichu asked.
Lin Feng turned to look at Jiang Taichu.
The man before him was quite inscrutable!
From the words of the Second Senior Sister, he learned that many ancient ancestors of the Jiang family opposed borrowing the Jiuyu Ding!
In the end, it was still Jiang Taichu who insisted on borrowing the cauldron!
But last night,
he had a sharp disagreement with Jiang Taichu, and it was clear that there was some unpleasantness…
Lin Feng pondered for a moment and said:
“In terms of alchemy tools in this world, there are probably only a handful that can compare to this cauldron!”
“You do have some insight, but not much!”
Jiang Taichu shook his head.
“Oh? I would like to hear more!”
Lin Feng raised an eyebrow.
“The Jiuyu Ding is a product from the early ancient times, obtained by our first-generation ancestor from an ancient relic, and its forging origins are already unknown…”
“But in terms of alchemical capabilities, there is no other cauldron or furnace in the world that can match it!”
“Back then, your master went against the heavens… and also came to our Jiang family to borrow this cauldron! Because of this, your master owes our Jiang family a favor. Not only did he help us avoid great calamity, but he also took Yanxi as his disciple!”
Jiang Taichu said slowly.
The old man borrowed the Jiuyu Ding back then?
Lin Feng felt a bit shaken inside,
but he was not one to express his feelings, so he maintained a calm demeanor.
“Your master could not go against the heavens, do you think you can?”
Jiang Taichu suddenly said.
“There’s no need for us to dwell on this topic; he is he, and I am I!”
Lin Feng was unwilling to discuss this and changed the subject:
“Why have you come here now?”
“Yanxi!”
Jiang Taichu turned his gaze to his daughter beside him.
Jiang Yanxi nodded,
took out a red command flag, and walked to the front of a table in the alchemy room, carefully inserting the flag!
“Boom!”
In an instant,
the entire alchemy room was engulfed in flames,
as if one were in a sea of fire, with an overwhelming heat wave rushing toward them…
“What… is this?”
Lin Feng’s pupils constricted.
“The Jiuyu Ding is a top-grade spiritual treasure. Using this item for alchemy is not an easy task; it often requires seven or eight hours, or even several days!”
“If you rely solely on your own spiritual energy to activate it, even if you exhaust yourself, you won’t last that long!”
“Using an array to assist will make it much easier for you!”
Jiang Taichu explained.
Lin Feng fell silent for a moment and asked:
“How many spirit stones are needed to use this activation array once?”
“Depending on how long you refine, about ten top-grade spirit stones…”
Jiang Taichu replied.
“Does your Jiang family still have top-grade spirit stones?”
Lin Feng’s expression changed.
A thousand low-grade spirit stones are equivalent to one medium-grade spirit stone,
a thousand medium-grade spirit stones are equivalent to one high-grade spirit stone…
By this calculation,
a hundred top-grade spirit stones would be 1,000 * 1,000 * 1,000, totaling 100 million low-grade spirit stones!
Moreover,
top-grade spirit stones contain the purest spiritual energy in the world.
Even in ancient times, they were hard to come by, let alone in today’s end of the law era!
“The top-grade spirit stones were left by my Jiang family’s ancestors, intended for the use of the Jiuyu Ding… but after this time, the remaining ten or so top-grade spirit stones will also be completely consumed!”
Jiang Taichu’s expression was somewhat desolate.
In ancient times,
the Jiang family, as one of the eight clans, was incredibly glorious.
However,
everything has fallen into desolation!
The past glory is gone, inevitably making one feel heartbroken and lost…
“I suspect that the Wang family member sneaked into our Jiang family’s ancestral land yesterday just for this Jiuyu Ding!”
Upon hearing Jiang Taichu’s words,
Lin Feng was momentarily at a loss for words.
This was a great favor,
a heavy burden on his shoulders…
After a long silence, Lin Feng said.
“I owe your Jiang family a favor!”
“When your master borrowed the cauldron back then, he also said something similar… If there really comes a day when you reach an unknown realm, I do have something I would like you to help with!”
Jiang Taichu said.
“What is it?”
Lin Feng asked.
“Let’s talk about it when you reach that point!”
Jiang Taichu shook his head and turned to leave.
“Junior Brother, good luck!”
After making a cheering gesture, Jiang Yanxi followed her father out of the alchemy room!
Lin Feng watched the two leave, took a deep breath,
then,
he shifted his deep gaze toward the Jiuyu Ding in front of him!
Without any hesitation!
He immediately used his spiritual energy to open the lid of the Jiuyu Ding and began throwing in the medicinal materials he had previously collected one by one.
“Soul Fruit, Gathering Soul Ginseng, Ghost Grass, Dragon Tongue…”
As one precious spiritual herb after another fell into the Jiuyu Ding.
“Buzz, buzz, buzz~”
The activation array in the alchemy room began to operate violently.
Vast spiritual energy surged from the western corner,
causing the Jiuyu Ding to suddenly rise into the air, spinning rapidly and emitting waves of light…
Seeing this scene,
Lin Feng’s expression became serious, and he immediately sat cross-legged, focusing intently on refining the Soul Pill!
In the cultivation world,
any cultivator can refine pills,
but,
being able to refine and knowing how to refine are two different matters!
Ordinary cultivators can at most use spiritual fire to melt various herbs together, forming low-quality pills.
Alchemy masters focus on technique, timing, and familiarity with various medicinal properties, etc., to achieve the best results for the pills…
Back then on the mountain,
the old man trained Lin Feng in alchemy techniques every day,
so Lin Feng is undoubtedly one of the top alchemists in the world today, and with the assistance of the Jiuyu Ding, it is like adding wings to a tiger!
……
While Lin Feng was refining pills,
Jiang Taichu and his daughter Jiang Yanxi walked side by side, slowly heading toward the small wooden house.
After hesitating for a long time, Jiang Yanxi finally couldn’t help but ask her father out of curiosity:
“Dad, what is the matter you want to ask Junior Brother for help with?”
“A matter that is not suitable to discuss now. Besides, I just mentioned it casually and didn’t take it too seriously.”
Jiang Taichu replied with a smile.
“Is it about mother?”
Jiang Yanxi bit her red lip.
In fact,
the word “mother” was extremely unfamiliar to her!
Because she had never seen her mother!
All her memories of her mother were merely the countless drawings piled high on her father’s desk…
Upon hearing this, Jiang Taichu stopped in his tracks and looked toward the distant horizon, remaining silent for a long time.
After a while,
he answered her question indirectly:
“Yanxi, our Jiang family may not be able to survive this calamity… If it really comes to that, you should go find your senior brother Li Changye! It’s best to stay away from Lin Feng!”
“Chaos is approaching, and with your junior brother’s temperament, he is very likely to be among the first to face disaster!”
“Huh?”
Jiang Yanxi was somewhat confused.
“Don’t you understand the principle of ‘having a jewel brings guilt’?”
“The Jiang family had the ability back then, which is why we were qualified to possess treasures like the Jiuyu Ding, but now the Jiang family is already powerless…”
“The appearance of the Wang family is just a prelude; there may be other spiritual realm forces coming!”
“Originally, there were several big figures stationed here, strongly protecting this area, suppressing the divine clan, and prohibiting spiritual realm cultivators from coming over, but now it seems there are some problems…”
Jiang Taichu spoke in a series of sentences.
He had experienced many things and knew some insider information, so he predicted what might happen…
Upon hearing her father’s words,
Jiang Yanxi felt a storm brewing in her heart and didn’t know how to respond!
Just then,
Jiang Yunwu rushed over from a distance, panicking as he shouted:
“Clan leader! Not good… the Huang family has come again!”
“So soon? I thought they would only start at tonight’s banquet…”
A cold glint flashed in Jiang Taichu’s eyes as he asked:
“Where are they now?”
“In the conference hall, there’s an ancient ancestor from the Huang family personally leading the team, and… and…”
“Is there also someone from the Wang family?”
“Yes! That Wang family member is incredibly strong, even more terrifying than Wang Zhen from yesterday!”
As Jiang Yunwu spoke, his expression turned pale, and he trembled as he said:
“Our clan’s several ancient ancestors joined forces, yet they are still no match for that person! Now they are forcing Wang Zhen to reveal where he went…”
