Chapter 43: The Matter of the Weapon Refining Hall
In a white jade palace, an old man with childish face and white hair and a tall young man with a cold face were discussing something.
"Eh?" The old man suddenly let out a soft eh sound, raised his wrinkled eyelids and looked outside the hall.
Yang Chen looked puzzled at first, but then he noticed something and went outside the hall.
Not long after, a woman's voice came from outside the hall.
"It seems that senior brother is in this hall, huh? Junior brother Yang Chen is also here?"
After a while, a pretty young woman was seen walking into the hall.
Behind the young woman was a graceful woman in purple.
"It turns out to be Junior Sister Wu Lan. I don't know what caused Junior Sister to come here in person." The child-like face and heavy-haired old man greeted the young woman with a smile.
"Senior sister!" Yang Chen cupped his fists and said after seeing the young woman.
"Junior brother, I haven't seen you for a long time, but my skills have made a lot of progress. I think we are not far from the middle stage of foundation building." Wu Lan's beautiful eyes lit up and she said with a smile.
"I have met two senior brothers." Under Wu Lan's gaze, the woman in purple stepped forward respectfully and bowed deeply.
"Oh? This must be a disciple of your weapon training hall, right? He has already reached the Great Perfection state of Qi training, and is only one step away from building the foundation." The old man noticed the woman in purple, and after just one glance, he knew that this woman had already
Stop for a long time while practicing Qi Dzogchen.
"Ziyun is one of my most valued disciples, but I have no choice but to have the Foundation Establishment Pill to help him break through, so he can only be stuck in the Qi training period." Wu Lan sighed and said with great regret.
"Junior sister, don't be too sad. In the trial meeting three years later, this girl will definitely win the ranking." The old man stroked his white beard and said with a smile.
"Senior brother is right, this matter also depends on Ziyun's luck. Let's not talk about it for now. Junior sister, I do have something important to ask of senior brother when I come here." Wu Lan glanced at Ziyun behind him.
Yun said the purpose of coming here.
"Well, junior sister, please sit down and talk." When the old man heard this, his expression became serious.
"Recently, a new Foundation Establishment monk has been promoted to the outer disciples. Junior sister would like to congratulate senior brother." After Wu Lan sat down, he suddenly said something that shocked the old man and others.
"Is this happening?" The old man frowned and looked at Yang Chen aside.
Yang Chen just shook his head and didn't say anything. However, he looked absent-minded, as if he was thinking about something.
"It's natural that senior brother doesn't know about this, because that person seems to have succeeded in building a foundation just today. I wanted to see which disciples of Jin Temple have recently succeeded in building a foundation this morning, and I happened to see a disciple who was responsible for this area just now
Zhuji, this person’s name is Dongfang Zimo, do you remember him?” Wu Lan said with a smile in his eyes.
"He really succeeded in building the foundation..." Before the old man could answer, Yang Chen suddenly screamed.
Hearing this, the old man looked at Yang Chen strangely.
Wu Lan also looked at this person curiously and said nothing.
As if realizing that he had lost his composure, Yang Chen coughed dryly and pretended that nothing happened.
What everyone didn't know was that Ziyun on the side froze in place when he heard the news that Dongfang Zimo had successfully built the foundation. His face was gloomy, but most of him still harbored resentment.
"It's a good thing that this person can successfully build the foundation, but if you have any questions, junior sister, just tell me." The old man said with a somewhat relaxed mood.
"Okay, junior sister, I won't beat around the bush, it's like this, the elder above needs to refine a magic weapon, but he wants us from the weapon training hall to provide a piece of thousand-year black iron. Although the elder has given the whereabouts of this object,
But there is still a slight danger during the search, so I plan to borrow a foundation-building disciple from my senior brother to help accompany Ziyun in the search." Wu Lan glanced at Ziyun who was standing aside and said with a bitter smile.
When Ziyun heard that he was going to search for the thousand-year-old black iron with Dongfang Zimo, although he was completely unwilling to do so, he bit his red lips helplessly.
"So that's what happened. Don't worry, Junior Sister. I'll leave this matter to Senior Brother. I wonder when Junior Sister will set off?" The old man felt relieved and said with a laugh.
"The sooner we start this matter, the better, let's do it tomorrow. By the way, I see that my junior brother has profound skills, so why not take the trouble to accompany my Ziyun on a trip?" Wu Lan smiled and stared at Yang Chen, who had been silent.
"Uh... Junior Brother Yang has been busy recently, so I'm afraid he won't be able to leave. Junior sister, don't worry, we will definitely arrange for a foundation-building disciple to accompany the disciples from the Qi Training Hall." The old man glanced hesitantly.
Yang Chen coughed dryly and said.
"Anyway, I have to thank you, senior brother. I will take my leave now, junior sister." Wu Lan stood up and thanked her, then left with Ziyun.
"We are all from the same sect, so there is no need to be so polite." The old man stood up and saw each other off, watching the two of them leave.
After the two people left, the whole palace became quiet for a while.
"I didn't expect this person to succeed in building the foundation so quickly. I remember that this person seems to have been stuck in the Qi training period for a long time. It seems that he got some opportunity." The old man glanced at Yang Chen intentionally or unintentionally, with a meaningful look.
said.
"It's destiny." Yang Chen said calmly.
When the old man heard the words, he just smiled and said nothing, then he picked up a transmission note and turned it into a ray of light and flew out.
At this time, Dongfang Zimo had finished teaching Yang Hu and others, and was now heading towards his residence.
It's funny to say that these three people actually fainted because they couldn't bear the pressure.
Dongfang Zimo couldn't help laughing when he thought of this.
After returning to the house, Dongfang Zimo saw a transmission note hovering at the door.
Dongfang Zimo took the transmission note in his hand with a puzzled look on his face.
Only with the intrusion of spiritual consciousness did he realize what was going on.
Dongfang Zimo held his five fingers empty and burned the talisman in his hand into ashes.
After some hesitation, Dongfang Zimo smiled lightly.
"It shouldn't be Yang Hu's business, let's go and take a look first." Dongfang Zimo was a little worried that Yang Hu would find the old man with a childlike face and heavy hair to complain about today's incident, so he felt a little guilty.
After arriving at the hall, Dongfang Zimo was arranged to sit aside after seeing the old man.
What he didn't expect was that Yang Chen was also there, and Dongfang Zimo smiled gratefully at him to show his kindness for giving him the pill.
"I never thought that the master of the weapon training hall was right. You actually succeeded in building the foundation." After seeing Dongfang Zimo's foundation-building aura, the old man couldn't help but admire him.
"With the blessing of the sect, we can successfully build the foundation below." Dongfang Zimo said with his fists clasped.
"Well, there is an errand that you need to do right now. Although you have just successfully established the foundation and need to consolidate your cultivation, don't worry, I will definitely compensate you well after it is completed." The old man said in a gentle tone.
"Please tell me, senior brother, I will do my best." Dongfang Zimo said without complaint.
