"It's nothing, it's just a fluke."
Sun Haoran smiled, nodded humbly and admitted.
Along the way, both Ren Zimo and the elder of the Affairs Hall in front of him knew that he had defeated several golden elixir monks in succession, and they seemed to know that it was not a fluke, but that he had real strength.
He thought that he had probably entered the sight of the people in the City Lord's Mansion.
Who knows what these people are planning.
But Sun Haoran didn't care much about this. After all, even if the so-called city lord came, as long as the opponent was not condescending in mid-air from the beginning, it would only be a matter of his punch.
In short, it would be fine if the people in the City Lord's Mansion were just testing him out, but if they dared to go against him, they would probably turn against him.
It's just time to change places.
"Humph, is it a fluke? Young people nowadays are really humble." The old man smiled nonchalantly, but didn't say much.
"That's all. Since you don't want to show off, I won't ask any more questions. Come on, this is your residence permit. Keep it carefully and don't lose it."
As he spoke, he randomly pulled out a metal sign from the pile of things.
I saw the spiritual power flowing on the metal sign as it passed the old man's hand, and then was thrown out without stopping and fell into Sun Haoran's hands.
"This is……"
Looking at the metal sign in his hand that had been refined in the blink of an eye, Sun Haoran's eyes narrowed slightly.
Although the old man in front of him is not very advanced, he is probably a master of weapon refining.
He was very sure that the metal sign just now was just an ordinary piece of scrap metal, but it was refined into a simple magic weapon just by passing through the hands of this old man.
"This is the residence permit."
Seeming to see that Sun Haoran was a little confused, the old man explained calmly, "With this sign, you can come and go freely in Ye Ming City, and it can also be used as a simple flying magic weapon. Of course... If you really only have the ability to build If you have base level cultivation, then this thing is really of no use to you."
Is this a hint?
Sun Haoran smiled bitterly and shook his head.
But this also shows that although the people in the City Lord's Mansion have noticed him, they don't care too much. This state of affairs, which everyone knows very well, is actually quite good.
"If nothing happens, just leave quickly and don't disturb me."
The elder of the affairs hall seemed to dislike people staying here. After throwing the sign to Sun Haoran, he began to issue eviction orders.
"Well, thank you very much, elder, and I'll take my leave first." Now that he had obtained the residence order, Sun Haoran naturally didn't want to stay in other people's territory any longer. After thanking him, he said goodbye and left.
Soon, he arrived at the mansion arranged for him by Wang Wei.
The servants in the mansion are all mortals. They are mainly responsible for cleaning the mansion and answering the door when guests come. There seems to be no other place where they are needed.
After all, Sun Haoran is also an immortal cultivator and does not need them to prepare food.
The following days were free.
Sun Haoran's cultivation level has already reached a bottleneck. If he does not find a source of truth that can be used to repair his bloodline, he will not be able to progress no matter how much spiritual power he has. Therefore, such a thing as cultivation does not exist for him.
Even if spiritual energy resources are obtained, they can only be used to restore some spiritual energy to prepare for emergencies.
The top priority is to find someone to help him refine a cloud shuttle so that he can go into the Devouring Storm and temper his body.
That's right, this is Sun Haoran's customized training plan for himself.
Currently trapped in this demon Kun's body, it is definitely impossible to find the source of truth to repair his bloodline. Therefore, as long as he is still trapped inside, his cultivation level cannot be improved.
But he can temper his body by swallowing the storm.
The goal is to try to reach the point where the legendary 'King Kong is indestructible'.
Intuition told Sun Haoran that if the Devouring Law really existed in the Devouring Storm, then it should be able to achieve that effect when used to temper the body.
In short, no matter what happens, he must temper his body to the point where he can resist the devouring storm and find a way out.
He didn't want to be trapped in Mo Kun's body for the rest of his life.
Originally, he had no idea who could help refine the Cloud Shuttle, but now he does.
The eccentric elder from the City Lord's Mansion Affairs Hall is a good candidate.
I believe that if this elder helps to refine the cloud shuttle, its strength should be very high, making it easier for him to step into the depths of the Devouring Storm to temper his body.
Although he thought so, but now he has neither the materials nor the capital to ask the other party to refine it as a reward, so he can only wait patiently for the time being.
Although you can directly challenge the one hundred and eight fortresses mentioned by Ren Zimo and grab a fortress to get your salary, this can speed up the accumulation of refining materials and expenses.
But Sun Haoran thought about it and gave up.
First, he doesn't want to show off his strength too much.
Secondly, he didn't want to go to all the trouble of resisting the attacks of ferocious beasts all day long.
Finally, after several months of making salted fish, Wang Wei from Wang's Trading Company sent the first batch of resources he requested.
Some of them are the materials needed to refine the cloud shuttle, and the other part are all spiritual resources that can be used for practice or as precious currency.
After hanging around leisurely for several months, Sun Haoran was almost at a loss for words.
So after getting all kinds of materials and spiritual resources, I couldn't wait to rush to the city lord's mansion again.
The advantage of the people in the City Lord's Mansion paying attention to him was highlighted this time. Although this time there was no temporary pass given by Wang Wei to handle matters like last time, it was easy because everyone in the City Lord's Mansion knew of his existence. He came in unimpeded.
After arriving at the dilapidated attic again, I found the eccentric elder. Sun Haoran originally thought that inviting the other party to refine weapons would be troublesome.
But who knew that the other party was just surprised that Sun Haoran actually saw that he was a master of Qi refining. After being surprised, he said nothing and readily agreed.
Refining weapons seems to be a kind of fun for this old man. He likes to smelt this pile of scrap copper and iron all day long, so no matter who comes here, he will see him working on the pile of materials. Looking for something inside.
"Do you have any requirements for your Cloud Shuttle?" The old man asked calmly after accepting the refining materials, "For example, 'fast speed', 'less spiritual power consumption' and other requirements."
"I don't have any special requirements for these... I just hope that they can withstand the devastation of the swallowing storm as much as possible, so as not to be scrapped if it goes a little deeper." Sun Haoran thought for a while and said with a smile.
"Really? Are you planning to go deep into the swallowing storm?"
The old man was not too surprised when he heard this and glanced at Sun Haoran lightly.
A strong man who can easily defeat three early stage Jindans in a row must be at least at the Nascent Soul realm.
Although he, like everyone else in the City Lord's Mansion, was very curious about this boy who had reached the realm of Nascent Soul and above at such a young age, since the other party deliberately concealed it and did not want to make enemies, they could only pretend not to know.
In fact, he readily agreed to help refine the weapon, which was naturally influenced by such factors.
"Okay, I will work hard on the defensive performance to ensure your satisfaction."
"Thank you very much, senior. This is the deposit. After the refining is completed, I will give senior enough reward."
As Sun Haoran spoke, he gave all the spiritual resources Wang Wei gave him to the old man in front of him.
Refining a good magic weapon is not a matter of a day or two, and it is not cheap, let alone hiring such a master to refine it.
He estimated that the old man in front of him was probably the best weapon refiner in the entire Yeming City.
This fee is definitely not enough to pay. The remaining expenses can only be seen in a few months to see how Wang Wei's business is going and how much he can get.
"Take it back."
Unexpectedly, the old man didn't seem to be interested in spiritual resources, "I have plenty of these."
As the best weapon refiner in Ye Ming City, his status in the city is second only to the city lord. Moreover, weapon refining is a job that consumes extremely spiritual energy. In order to obtain the supply of superior magic weapons, the spiritual resources poured into him in the city will naturally not be enough. There will be less.
Therefore, it is natural to look down on Sun Haoran's spiritual resources.
"Just think that you owe me a favor. Just keep these things by yourself. I know that the spiritual power in your body has long been exhausted, so it is better to absorb it yourself. Otherwise, even if I refine the superior magic weapon, you Without spiritual power, it’s just a piece of scrap metal.”
"This...thank you, senior, haven't you asked your senior's name yet?"
Sun Haoran was slightly startled when he heard this.
But if you think about it carefully, the old man in front of you knows that he cannot only have the strength of the foundation-building stage, so he wants to sell him a favor. This seems to be easy to understand.
Being able to exchange favors for a magic weapon is naturally a good thing for Sun Haoran. It is difficult for a weak person to return favors to a strong person, but in turn, it is a simple effort.
With just a raise of your hand, you can get a magic weapon that you need urgently at the moment, and you can save your spiritual resources for future use. It is naturally an excellent deal.
Sun Haoran couldn't imagine how difficult the request would be for him when the old man in front of him asked him to return his favor. After all, he was just a monk at the Golden Core Stage.
Even if the other party proposes to seek power and usurp the throne as the city lord, for him, helping the other party rise to power is just a matter of effort.
"My surname is Kang, just call me Mr. Kang." The old man smiled faintly, and then waved to Sun Haoran to leave if nothing happened.
"Then, Mr. Kang, Sun will take his leave."
The matter was settled, and Sun Haoran naturally resigned.
The next step is to wait for Mr. Kang to complete the refining of the cloud shuttle he wants.
During this period, Sun Haoran retreated in the mansion and absorbed all the spiritual resources he obtained into his own spiritual power.
Although this bit of spiritual power is still just a drop in the bucket for him, at least he has spiritual power, which can at least guarantee that it will be enough to activate the cloud shuttle.
Fortunately, with Sun Haoran's strength, he did not need to use spiritual power to fight against the monks he had encountered so far. Therefore, if he saved them all and used them to use the cloud shuttle, he thought he would probably rely on the resources allocated to him by the Chamber of Commerce. It's enough support.
The only question is whether the pain will subconsciously trigger spiritual resistance when the body is tempered by the Devouring Storm.
Someday.
Under the notice of the servant, Sun Haoran learned that there was finally a letter from the City Lord's Mansion.
Without even thinking about it, he knew that Mr. Kang must have finished refining his cloud shuttle and asked him to go get the magic weapon.
After arriving at the dilapidated attic where Mr. Kang was again, Sun Haoran naturally successfully obtained the refined Cloud Shuttle.
The cloud shuttle that Mr. Kang refined for him was a spaceship that resembled a small nuclear submarine, with various incomprehensible formations carved on it. Sun Haoran estimated that it was a formation used to enhance the defensive performance of the cloud shuttle.
Sure enough, this is indeed the case in Mr. Kang's explanation: "I have specialized the defensive performance of this cloud shuttle according to your requirements. It can probably withstand the terrifying power that engulfs the middle area of the storm, even when it reaches the center area. Hold on for a while. But on the other hand, this ship does not have any attack capabilities, and its speed is also weaker."
"It doesn't matter, this is exactly what I want. Thank you, Mr. Kang, for taking the trouble to customize this cloud shuttle for me."
Sun Haoran naturally had no objection to this, and after thanking him, he included it in his collection.
This Nai Ring was naturally given to him when Wang's Trading Company gave him supplies. It can be said that it was quite thoughtful.
"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. I said you owe me a favor by helping you refine this cloud shuttle." Mr. Kang said calmly.
"Oh? It seems that Mr. Kang has thought about how I can repay this favor?" Sun Haoran immediately understood after hearing this and nodded slightly, "Mr. Kang said it doesn't matter. Within his ability, Sun will definitely do it."
"Actually, it shouldn't be a difficult thing for you."
After listening to Sun Haoran's affirmative answer, Mr. Kang nodded with satisfaction, and then began to explain, "Actually, this matter is not my personal commission, but the commission of the City Lord. You should know that the City Lord is stuck at the peak of Nascent Soul Realm has been there for many years.
Today, it seems that there are finally signs of a breakthrough.
In order to prepare for the thunder when the breakthrough comes, he entrusted me to help refine a superior defensive weapon.
But that was the thunder from the Nascent Soul Realm. How could any ordinary magical weapon withstand it?
If you want to refine such a magic weapon, the materials required are naturally extraordinary.
Although I am quite accomplished in weapon refining, it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw..."
"So... Mr. Kang wants me to help find a certain piece of material?"
When Sun Haoran heard this, he immediately understood what the other party meant.
"Hahaha, young people's minds work very fast." Mr. Kang rubbed his hands with a sly look in his eyes, "To be honest, the defensive spiritual weapon I am going to refine is called Panthunder Golden Crystal Armor, and the most important part of it is The material is the scale armor of a Pan Thunder Lion whose cultivation level must reach at least the Golden Core realm."
"Are there scales of ferocious beasts above the Golden Core realm?" Sun Haoran nodded slightly when he heard this, and then asked with some confusion, "Since it is a major event for the City Lord to break through, people in the City Lord's Mansion should be very active in looking for such materials, right? ? I heard that in addition to the city lord, there are two deputy city lords in the Nascent Soul realm. If they take action, wouldn't such ferocious beasts be easily captured? Why do you need my help? "
