As Pang Wei had not expected, his intention was opposed by many families within the sect.

But amidst this opposition, there are also his disciples, disciples, and allies running around.

These people made extravagant efforts for him, calling on elders and famous teachers from all sides to support him. In addition, he himself also contacted and talked privately with some elders who were stubbornly opposed, trying to persuade them.

As the day when the Divine Weapon List was announced approached, the situation finally gradually became favorable to him.

In May, the Presbyterian Council finally agreed to vigorously support and develop Tianxingyu, an escape weapon, and use it as a model to inform the entire sect.

The treasures, secrets, and talents that Pang Wei requested are gradually being prepared.

The control of these treasures and secrets is naturally in his hands, and the talents are also at his disposal. For a while, he is in the limelight.

However, even though this was a satisfying moment, it was somewhat unsatisfactory, because the position of real power that Pang Wei wanted had not yet been implemented, and it was not known what the senior officials of the sect were thinking about.

Pang Wei wanted to take this opportunity to become the steward elder of Lingbao Sect Qintian Courtyard. This steward elder position is different from other elders who were given the title of elder because of their promotion to the Yuanying realm. The key point is the word "steward", which is

Real positions of power.

Similarly, there are many names such as the elder who protects the law, the elder who teaches skills, the elder who handles punishment, and so on.

This was a crucial step for him, so he had no choice but to continue fighting for it.

…

In June, there was a huge crowd at the foot of Tianshu Mountain.

The place is full of monks from all over the world, just like in the past. There are also more topics talking about the list of divine weapons and the masterpieces of the world's famous masters of weaponry.

Everyone has turned their attention to the results of the rankings that will be announced soon.

Since they didn't know the origin of Duan Kongyu and Tianxing, and Pang Wei and others had recently promoted it, monks from all walks of life were full of expectations for the magic weapon refined by his Pang family.

At this time, in a lively wine shop, a group of monks who looked like monks were drinking, chatting, and inevitably talking about this matter.

"Fellow Taoists, have you heard? Recently, Pang Yezi finally made that exquisite treasure!"

"Pang Yezi? But that Pang Shan of the Pang family? I've also heard that that exquisite treasure is called Tianxingyu!"

"So you also know?"

"Of course, there has been a lot of rumors inside and outside Dingshan. It is said that this was the ancient chariot discovered by the Pang family in a ruins. It was cracked and improved based on the Tao pattern restrictions. The quality is better than before.

Any other escape weapon will win!"

"I've heard about this too. If the rumors are true, it's really unbelievable."

Some people disagreed: "Why do you value this escape weapon so much? It's just an escape weapon, but it can't increase your cultivation level. It can't extend your life. Even if you get a breakthrough, it's nothing special."

The man who spoke at the beginning said: "My fellow Taoist, what you said is wrong. The development of any magic weapon, skill or magical power is gradual. If a breakthrough can be achieved, it will be beyond the times. It is unprecedentedly powerful and has unparalleled advantages!"

People who agreed with his statement also chimed in: "Exactly, in the world, it often doesn't matter how good you are, but how you are better than others!"

Several other people also echoed this, and it is clear that this view is deeply popular.

Being better has advantages, and having advantages means being profitable!

The person who originally spoke continued: "Just think about it, everyone else can only use the old escape device, but you use the new escape device. You can travel tens of thousands of miles away and travel back and forth in a day. How convenient is this? All the major families have Based on this, you can control a wider territory. Masters of casual cultivators can also rush to the ruins in time to seize the opportunity, or avoid powerful enemies and chase them down! You can also use the special effects of this magic weapon to shuttle and move to enter and exit places that were previously inaccessible. Dangerous monuments, and even venture into the void on your own!"

The monk who had looked disapproving just now suddenly became speechless when he heard this: "This..."

He didn't take much of what this person said because he was a casual cultivator and didn't care how those aristocratic families and experts used Tianxingyu. But the last point was closely related to him and he couldn't ignore it.

"This kind of magic weapon can travel through the void?"

"Of course, otherwise, why would we be talking so enthusiastically?"

"The void is the territory of the outer universe. Only the powerful Nascent Soul can enter it. However, this new escape device is said to have the effect of traveling through the void. This also means that with our level of cultivation, it is possible to enter the void. .”

Someone questioned: "But hasn't this kind of magic weapon been available before?"

Someone else explained patiently: "It is true that there have been similar magic weapons for a long time, but they are just sporadic masterpieces of famous masters and not systematic. This is like Grandmaster Li from Tiannan refining the God of Disaster Armor, which broke the deadlock of accidental refining in the past. , will be valued by all forces!"

"That's it!" The questioning monk was speechless again.

There is indeed a big difference between accidental refining and self-contained production, just like ancient hand refining and today's large workshops.

According to rumors, in the past, even refining a mere magical weapon, a flying sword, had to be done step by step by the hands of a famous master. The famous masters spent their time and energy on things that even handymen could do for them. It is a flaw that is not systematic.

Outside the group of talking monks, a monk who was immersed in drinking raised his head and laughed loudly: "Why bother so much? I only know that if the magic weapon refined by Pang Yezi can really be ranked on the Earthly Evil List, Then, the price of a type of treasure material with the power of the void will definitely rise sharply, so it is only right to think about how to take advantage of this opportunity and hoard some."

When everyone heard this, they greatly agreed.

These casual cultivators, wandering around, are all doing it to improve their cultivation. Logically speaking, they have no time to care about those famous teachers and masters.

But the fact is that they are very concerned about the actions of famous teachers and masters, because their side jobs are ghost hunters, and the value of treasure materials and the market of magic weapons are closely related.

However, since he is a casual cultivator, he will inevitably suffer in terms of strength and information. This person makes it easy, and it is something that everyone wants to do, but it is never that easy.

These people immediately complained again. Even casual cultivators like them realized that they needed to hoard relevant treasures. Those chambers of commerce and sect families had already been doing this quietly. How could there be so many big leaks for them to pick up?

A monk looked full of regret and sighed: "Moti picked it up, thank God if he didn't suffer a loss. You don't know, I had a Xuanxing stone in my hand half a year ago, but a steward of Mangbei branch, I took it away for only twice the price. If I still keep it now, it would cost at least five times the price!"

"When things go wrong, there must be monsters. Why don't you understand this? For no reason, they charge you double the price, but you don't raise the price?"

"Well, you said it lightly. If you don't get it out, you will still regret it if you smash it in your hand. The manager said that a high-roller recently bought it at a big price. It's an opportunity not to be missed. I'm also worried about missing it."

"That's right, fellow Taoist, you are just standing and talking without hurting your back. Those are profiteers and human beings. They have their own reasons to convince you!"

Everyone immediately sighed: "We are going through life and death outside, but in the end, we have to get stabbed in their hands!"

The topic of conversation gradually changed, and soon it turned into verbal and written criticism of those profiteers and human beings.

…

"Pangshan, Tianxingyu..."

These casual cultivators did not notice that at this moment, in the upper elegant room of the wine shop, a group of young men and women with gorgeous clothes and extraordinary bearing were surrounding Li Wan and Lin Jingshu, drinking slowly and waiting while listening with interest.

They also came to Zhongzhou in a low-key manner to observe the opening of the rankings in person.

Although there are informants from all over the world to collect information, these three religions and nine schools of thought are more down-to-earth, and Li Wan himself is from a poor family, so he still feels very close to them.

Thinking back then, if fate hadn't played a trick on him, he would most likely have become one of these complaining monks.

But at this moment, Li Wan was more concerned about the news about Lingbao Sect and the Pang family revealed by those people.

The Pang family has really succeeded. With this strength, it is indeed worthy of being a family from a large family.

"Did the Pang family successfully crack it?"

Lu Mingyan was also on the side. When he heard these people chatting, he knew the whole story. He couldn't help but whispered with a bit of anger: "This Pang family is deceiving the world and stealing their reputation. It's really abominable!"

Li Wan nodded, but did not comment. He just said meaningfully: "I won't let him be proud for too long."

Lu Mingyan was extremely confused. He guessed that the master might have made some arrangements, but he didn't know it. However, it seemed that the master had never cared about what Pang Wei and others were doing.

Even this time I came to Zhongzhou in person because I wanted to see the opening list and discuss the treasure trade with several allies in Zhongzhou.

However, Lu Mingyan is a weapon refiner, and he doesn't care much about these incomprehensible things. What he cares more about is this time's list of divine weapons.

It's a pity that at his age, Senior Brother Xing and others had already become famous with the help of their natal magic weapon, but he was still only at the level of an ordinary famous teacher, with no hope at all.

Li Wan glanced at his disciple and vaguely guessed his thoughts.

However, he had no intention of not trying to persuade her.

In fact, he also relied on a large number of spiritual treasures to enable Xing Qingtian and others to grow rapidly. However, as a result, the potential of Xing Qingtian and others has been exhausted, and their future achievements will be very limited.

Their understanding is far better than theirs, their foundation is more solid, and their chances of inheriting the mantle are greater.

But being young and energetic may not necessarily make you competent, and more training is needed.

If it doesn't work out, Li Wan also has other candidates, so he can always choose someone with a better temperament.

At this time, an accompanying family member lowered his head, walked through the crowd in a low-key manner, and walked in.

"Master, we have a secret report."

"Oh?" Li Wan took the secret report presented by the dead man, glanced at it with consciousness, and showed a happy smile.
Chapter completed!
