Chapter 27 Where is the Level 9 Alchemist!
With a whoosh, Lan Yuecheng landed in Shiyitang. After she landed, a spirit tortoise slowly flew over and nudged her with its head.
"Erdan, by the time you successfully save the day, I'll have already passed away." Lanyue sighed deeply, holding an ancient tortoise shell.
She didn't even have time to eat melon in the morning before her master dragged her into training, and she was only just thrown over here now.
After hearing this, Erdan covered his eyes with his two front paws, pretending not to have seen anything.
Lan Yue: "..."
"You've actually learned to run away from things! That won't do. We need to face things bravely!"
She turned her head again and found that Yin Xue had quietly landed beside her at some point, but compared to Er Dan, Yin Xue was obviously much quieter.
Before Lan Yue could even ask any questions, the other party transformed into a snow-white spirit cat and started meowing.
Lan Yue wiped her face and resignedly picked it up.
"Huh, I just realized what this is in my hand?" Lan Yue belatedly noticed that she had a tortoise shell in her hand.
She stroked the mysterious patterns on the tortoise shell, and unknowingly she had already probed it with her spiritual power. Then, line after line of golden characters appeared, all of which were pasted on her brow, and then quickly disappeared.
"This is... divination?" Lan Yue exclaimed excitedly, never expecting that her hard training over the past few days would lead to the inheritance of divination techniques. Thinking of her master, she suddenly found him much more agreeable.
Although the other party's training methods were a bit harsh, who can refuse an all-powerful master?
She decided to forgive her master!
"Junior Sister Lanyue? It really is you!" A gentle female voice came from the side.
A woman wearing a dark green pleated skirt and carrying an oil-paper umbrella walked slowly over.
Lan Yue's eyes lit up when she saw it.
What a beauty! Coupled with the picturesque scenery behind the Hall of Four Arts, this beauty seems to have stepped out of a painting!
"Junior Sister Lanyue, it's been a long time since we last met at the Martial Arts Hall. I must thank you properly today since we've met again."
The beauty's voice was gentle, reminding Lan Yue of the misty rain of Jiangnan in her previous life.
[Lan Yue: She really is a beauty; just seeing her makes me feel good!]
The woman opposite him paused for a moment, then smiled gently.
Lan Yue was completely stunned, and it took her a while to realize what the beauty in front of her had said.
[Lan Yue: What? I actually know such a beauty? When did we meet? How could I have forgotten?]
"Junior Sister Lanyue, last time at the martial arts arena, I was fighting a senior brother on the stage, and you were still reminding me from your seat over there." Qingzhu slowly turned the oil-paper umbrella in her hand, and a cool drizzle slowly fell.
Looking at the misty drizzle, Lan Yue suddenly recalled that she seemed to have taken the opportunity to incite quite a few people in the martial arts arena back then.
"It was you, Junior Sister, who reminded me to add poison to the rain. After I changed my strategy, it worked immediately, and we even won first place." Qingzhu pursed her lips and smiled slightly.
She twirled the umbrella again, and fine, dense silver needles, mixed with the drizzle, fell, only to be caught by Qingzhu just before hitting the ground.
Lan Yue, standing under the umbrella, felt a chill run down her spine; she could only nod woodenly.
"Senior sister is really amazing!"
"If Lan Yue encounters any difficulties in the future, you can also come to me. Your senior sister will support you." Qingzhu patted her head, then slowly closed the umbrella.
After her umbrella was put away, the space immediately cleared up, and the sky became bright and clear again.
Lan Yue looked at her senior sister in front of her with absolute admiration.
She just said it casually, but she didn't expect her senior sister to be able to make such a quick change, even more impressive than she had said!
"Senior sister, I'll be counting on you from now on!" Lan Yue quickly grabbed her leg.
Such a beautiful woman, and with such amazing legs, how can I not try to get close to her?
"By the way, junior sister, you've come to the Four Arts Hall, you must be looking for a path, right? Why don't you come with me to the Spirit Weapon Hall first? I still have influence there," Qingzhu suggested, holding an umbrella.
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Senior Sister!" Lan Yue nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
[Lan Yue: Go, go, you absolutely have to go! How can I not go to see such a beautiful senior sister?]
Qingzhu across from him smiled again.
Just as Lan Yue was about to follow her beautiful senior sister, Li Bai quickly ran over from not far away.
Above the Hall of Four Arts, Yunxi also arrived on her sword.
"Junior sister, what exactly happened? This area is under a formation, we can't get in! Which unreliable senior brother is fighting here again..."
When Li Bai looked up, he saw Qingzhu holding an umbrella and looking at him gently.
"So it's Senior Sister Qing! No wonder the formation you just set up was so powerful!" Li Bai immediately changed his tune.
"Lanyue, are you alright?" Yunxi didn't recognize Qingzhu, but she had also noticed what had just happened, and she was extremely anxious.
"It's alright, it's alright. Senior Sister just showed me the spirit weapon. Let's talk as we walk." Lan Yue and the two beside her followed their senior sister's steps and walked towards the spirit weapon hall.
"By the way, junior sister, have you learned to fly on a sword? I haven't seen you for several days, but you came out today. Have you already made progress?" Li Bai was quite curious. He really wanted to know whether Elder Guangji had taught Junior Sister Lanyue.
Upon hearing his question, Lan Yue immediately raised her chin slightly.
"Of course, there's no problem with my master making an appearance."
"That's good. From now on, Junior Sister, you won't have to climb the mountain every day." Li Bai breathed a sigh of relief.
Thinking to herself, "As expected of the Fairy Guangji, who was rated as the number one beauty in the Northern Region, she is truly amazing!"
Of course, he didn't have the guts to say it out loud; he only dared to mutter it to himself.
That's why he admires his junior sister so much, who's always gossiping. She's probably the real warrior!
No wonder the artifact didn't want his junior sister to know that her true feelings could be heard by others. If she did, wouldn't she be incredibly embarrassed?
He estimated that his junior sister could escape from the Southern Spirit Sect overnight with her small bundle on her back.
"Junior Sister Lan Yue, you should have a basic understanding of the four arts of cultivation. Let me tell you about the Spirit Weapon Hall."
"The Spirit Weapon Hall is not only a place to learn how to forge spirit weapons, but also the entire sect's supply of spirit weapons depends on the Spirit Weapon Hall for forging them."
"The Southern Spirit Sect is one of the top sects in the Southern Region, so it also has branches of the Southern Spirit Sect's Spirit Weapon Hall in other places. After the disciples here make spirit weapons, they can sell them at the Spirit Weapon Hall branches in various countries."
The Spirit Weapon Hall will only charge a 5% handling fee; all the spirit stones obtained will belong to those disciples.
As Qingzhu walked, she explained things to her.
"Most importantly, you can also forge your own spiritual weapons here. The Spiritual Weapon Hall has a certain number of slots available each year, which you can apply for materials to forge your own spiritual weapons."
In other words, if you accumulate enough slots, you can even forge your own spiritual weapon, or your natal spiritual sword, without spending a single spirit stone.
"This bamboo umbrella of mine was gradually forged from the materials I applied for over the years."
Qingzhu opened her umbrella again and turned around slightly.
Upon closer inspection, one can even discover that although this umbrella appears to be an oiled paper umbrella, it is actually forged from spirit ore and even has array patterns engraved on it.
"Actually, this isn't just an umbrella; there's a spirit sword hidden underneath." Qingzhu pointed to the handle under the umbrella and quickly pulled out a jade-green spirit sword.
The spirit sword was very slender, and its color was as beautiful as jade, which made the two little girls very happy.
Not only was Lan Yue tempted, but even Yun Xi seemed to be deep in thought.
"How do you join the Spirit Artifact Hall?" Yunxi asked quietly from the side.
Qingzhu hadn't expected such an unexpected gain, so she patiently began to explain.
"Once you graduate from the Early Training Hall, you can come here to choose to cultivate the Four Arts of Immortality. Every year, senior brothers and sisters will recruit students from outside. After you apply, you will have a six-month training period. During this training period, you must forge a qualified spiritual weapon, otherwise you will have to withdraw automatically."
Yunxi nodded, her pale hand gently resting on her chin, somewhat hesitant.
She had indeed wanted to learn alchemy before, but she was also very interested in the conditions at the weapon-refining hall, so which one should she choose?
"How about I go first..."
[Lan Yue: Oh no, oh no, it's all my fault for having such weak wings! Is the female lead going to choose weapon crafting?]
[Lan Yue: However, choosing to refine weapons is not impossible. It all depends on what my daughter thinks and how she chooses to do it.]
After all, in the original story, although her daughter became a rare ninth-level alchemist in the cultivation world, she was also extremely talented in weapon crafting, and had even repaired a celestial artifact!
As soon as Lan Yue uttered these words, both the weapon-refining hall on this side and the pill-refining hall on that side fell silent.
A few seconds later, several elders flew over from both places.
