Dali, Haizhou.
"boom……"
The huge floating islands in the sea and sky slowly fell from the sky and stopped on a sea area.
Many senior sect officials, especially the sect elders in the middle and late stages of foundation building, looked at the familiar sea area excitedly, with tears in their eyes:
"Back...back again!"
For these people, being driven out of Dali like a lost dog was an unforgettable pain.
After going to Dayu for so many years, I barely managed to gain a foothold. As a result, the ancestor of Jindan, who was the pillar of the sect, died. Now that he can return to his homeland, it is the best ending.
"call!"
Zhang Yao took a deep breath and slowly withdrew his palm.
After adjusting his breath for a moment, he erased the mark he left in the center of the formation.
The entire floating island in the sea and sky is more suitable to be called a super giant spiritual weapon than a super magic weapon.
The protective power of the floating island is indeed level three, which is higher than most protective magic weapons, but it is too bulky and almost impossible to use in battle.
With Zhang Yao's magic power, it was a bit difficult to drive, and it took half a month to drive back to Dali Haizhou. If it were replaced by another Jindan Patriarch, it would have taken at least a month or two.
"If anyone can activate this thing as a hammer, I'm afraid the old Yuanying monster will have to stay away, right?"
Zhang Yao suddenly thought of this and couldn't help but laugh.
Using this huge floating island in the sea and sky as a hammer, the power is indeed terrifying, but the material of the thing itself is far inferior to a real magic weapon, and I am afraid it will break in one blow.
"Ancestor!"
At this time, many high-level officials from Fuhai Sect swarmed in and expressed their gratitude.
"okay."
Zhang Yao waved his hand and said:
"I'm going back to Qingxu Palace now, you can take care of yourself in the future."
"As for the Lingyang Sect and the others, I will inform them. You should try your best to restrain the disciples and not cause too many troubles."
As soon as he finished speaking, he rolled up his sleeves, jumped up and turned into a shocking white rainbow, disappearing from the horizon in an instant.
…………
A few hours later.
On the top of Pingdu Mountain, in Qingxu Palace.
"The ancestor is back!"
As Zhang Yao returned to Qingxu Palace, all the attendants in the palace became busy.
In the main hall:
"Um……"
Zhang Yao took a sip of the spirit tea and asked casually:
"In the past few months since I left, nothing major has happened in Dali's world of immortality, right?"
"Reporting to ancestor, it's nothing serious."
The beautiful maids on both sides responded with a low eyebrow.
"It's okay."
Zhang Yao waved his hand and said:
"You guys go down."
"If Ancestor Zhenyang and the others come here, there is no need to pass the news, they can just take them directly to the front hall."
"yes."
The two maids left in response.
After they left, Zhang Yao took out a large number of storage bags and a dazzling array of magic weapons.
In the Battle of the Emerald Palace, he was actually the only real survivor, and the inheritances of the other eight people also fell into his hands.
"There are so many magic weapons that I can't finish them all."
Zhang Yao sighed with emotion and first selected various magic weapons.
Every Jindan Patriarch has more than one magic weapon on his body, and the one with the most is Wanchuan Patriarch, who actually has twelve magic weapons.
Of course, some of these magic weapons may be their own magic weapons, and they are very powerful in their own hands, but if they fall into Zhang Yao's hands, they will be of little use.
"This stick is good, it should be a natural weapon..."
Zhang Yao picked up a long golden stick and tried it on. He found that it was quite heavy, probably weighing several thousand kilograms.
This weight is just the weight of the material itself, which is nothing compared to the black stone he got, but it is still dozens of times heavier than ordinary copper and iron.
"Body refining weapons are rare."
Zhang Yao used his magic power and spiritual thoughts to explore the inner magic circle, and soon gained something.
Body refining weapons are a very special type of magic weapon. Generally speaking, their functions are simple and crude, requiring less mana to activate. Their materials are far stronger and more reliable than ordinary magic weapons, and the casting cost is also much higher.
For example, the long metal stick in his hand has an internal formation that only has simple blessing and weight-increasing effects. It can increase the weight of the long stick from several thousand kilograms to hundreds of thousands kilograms.
The terrifying weight of more than 100,000 kilograms, combined with the divine power of a high-level body-refining monk, is enough to blow up a small hill with one stick. Even ordinary defensive magic weapons cannot withstand a few blows, and will cause great spiritual damage or even the body. traumatized.
It's a pity that his master died of frustration under a sneak attack and siege, and he couldn't show his strength at all.
"That's right. If other magic weapons are desserts, this is the main meal. One is worth several."
Zhang Yao put it away with great satisfaction and continued to look at the remaining items in Man Tiansheng's storage bag.
A hundred years ago, this person was just an ordinary body-refining monk in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. However, he could advance by leaps and bounds in just a hundred years and finally reach the realm of golden elixir. It must have been an unexpected encounter.
He rummaged through his storage bag, but didn't find much. He just found the physical training technique "Xuanjin Dafa" that Man Tiansheng practiced.
"The method is quite ordinary. It is the body-refining mystical skill of the orthodox Taoist sect. It follows the path of 'turning the body into an oven and melting gold to refine the body'."
Zhang Yao read through it, and while giving a conclusion, a guess emerged in his mind:
"This way of integrating into body refining also requires a large amount of precious spiritual gold. Perhaps he has consumed all the gains from his adventures?"
The tyranny of high-level body-refining monks is also due to the accumulation of massive resources. The various precious spiritual materials and treasures they need for advancement are more than ten times that of monks of the same level.
But Man Tiansheng's storage bag was shabby. Not only were there few spiritual stones, but apart from weapons, there was only one magic weapon that could be used as an auxiliary. He was much poorer than other monks of the same level.
"What a poor dog..."
Zhang Yao shook his head, put down his storage bag, and looked through the other storage bags.
A moment later:
"Um?"
Zhang Yao suddenly frowned, reached out and took out a command talisman from You Quan's storage bag.
The whole body of this talisman is blue-purple, with a complex pattern of unknown meaning on the back, and an inscription on the front.
It is very common to have a single command talisman. The most likely ones are identity tokens, formation talismans and the like. Even Zhang Yao has a lot of such things.
But the problem is:
Zhang Yao had just found this command talisman engraved with Yin etched inscriptions in Man Tiansheng's storage bag.
He didn't take it seriously before, but it wasn't until he found an identical talisman in You Quan's storage bag that he became suspicious and took it seriously.
"This thing... seems to be made of Ziyao real gold?"
Zhang Yao took out two talismans and compared them. After in-depth exploration, he finally found a clue.
Purple Yao True Gold is a kind of spiritual gold that is more precious than Fengxi Orichalcum. It is the main material for refining many powerful magic weapons.
This kind of precious spiritual gold was actually used by some people to refine identity talismans. It was hard to describe how wasteful it was. It was like "showing off" and "arrogance" were engraved on the forehead.
more importantly:
This small talisman does not have any traces of formations engraved on it, but the level of skill shown in the processing, melting and casting of the spiritual gold material can be said to be extremely wonderful.
As a third-level weapon refining master, Zhang Yao was not able to identify the material of the talisman immediately. This shows that the level of the refiner is far higher than him, and he may even be a fourth-level weapon refining master.
"No wonder there is no need for any spiritual pattern engraving. This precious material and unique refining technique are the best anti-counterfeiting methods."
Zhang Yao looked at the two talismans and thought for a while:
"Behind these two talismans, they must represent a huge organization."
"Man is born to be a physical cultivator, and You Quan is a rare weapon cultivator. The key is that they didn't seem to know each other before, and they are not in the world of immortal cultivation in the same country."
Zhang Yao could guess a lot from the status of the two of them.
First of all, the two did not know each other, and there was no possibility of disguise. After all, in the fifth level, Man Tiansheng encouraged the others to take action against Zhang Yao and You Quan.
If Taoist Sansha hadn't stepped forward and exposed the plots of several demon cultivators, the two would have become mortal enemies.
This is enough to show that the organization behind these two talismans is very large and spans various countries. At the same time, the control of its members is not very strict. It is a relatively loose form. It may be common for members not to know each other.
"You Quan is a weapon cultivator, and strengthening the magic weapon is cultivation. The demand for various precious spiritual gold materials is greater than that of body refinement cultivators."
"And if Man Tiansheng's rise is due to this mysterious organization, it would make sense..."
Zhang Yao thought of this and secretly wrote it down.
Apart from anything else, at least this organization can even use Ziyao True Gold to refine identity talismans, so there is certainly no shortage of precious spiritual gold.
At this stage, he is also extremely eager for all kinds of spiritual gold materials, and the demand is greater than that of the same level of weapon cultivation and body cultivation combined.
"If we meet each other in the future, we might still have time to deal with him."
After Zhang Yao put away the two talismans, he continued to check the remaining storage bags.
Ordinary rare treasures, spiritual elixirs, books, etc. can no longer be noticed by him. Only golden elixir magic weapons or third-level elixirs and treasure materials can attract his attention.
But when he checked Fairy Feiying's storage bag, he still found something that surprised him.
"This Illuminati is really haunting..."
Zhang Yao frowned and played with a small pale golden clock in his hand.
He is very familiar with this thing. The ancestor of Zhenyang once offered one as an offering. He judged that it was a magic weapon of the Illuminati, and it is still kept by him to this day.
Unexpectedly, before the previous one had time to be swallowed and refined, he got a new one.
"This thing can't be refined in batches and then used as a token of identity like the Taiyi Mingguang in the foundation period, right?"
It is normal for Zhang Yao to have such doubts.
The Illuminati is so wealthy that even the materials and methods for refining the magic weapons are exactly the same. At first glance, it seems that they are not produced by private refiners, but are refined on a large scale by a large force.
If it is refined by private request, the relevant spiritual pattern forbidden methods must be matched with the attributes of the material, and it also depends on the specific needs of the requester. It is basically impossible to have two identical magic weapons.
"This Fairy Feiying is a demon cultivator from Jingguo. The tiger demon cultivator from Tangshan that I had contact with before is also from Jingguo..."
"It is rumored that Jingguo is also full of demon cultivators. Could it be that this is the headquarters of the Illuminati?"
Zhang Yao frowned for a while, then slowly relaxed.
He is not planning to go to Jingguo for at least fifty years. The Illuminati actually has little to do with him, and there is no enmity between the two parties.
The little friction in the foundation building period was nothing at all, let alone after so many years.
"Forget it, whatever the Illuminati wants to do has nothing to do with me."
Zhang Yao put away the small pale gold clock and continued to look through the last two storage bags.
"found it!"
He took out a light cyan ball from Taoist Sansha's storage bag, showing a hint of joy.
"This treasure is quite good. It uses Wind's Breeze Orichalcum perfectly. It seems that Master Black Abyss still has a few brushes."
Zhang Yao explored it and nodded with satisfaction.
This is a magic weapon that Taoist Sansha went to Dali and asked Master Heiyuan of Liyuan Sect to refine it for him.
Zhang Yao judged from the internal forbidden magic that this thing was not used for fighting, but an auxiliary magic weapon similar to the 'Fixing Wind Bead'.
He could only guess that perhaps Taoist Sansha had prepared this auxiliary magic weapon because he wanted to venture to a dangerous place. However, in the end, it crashed in the Jade Palace and the magic weapon also fell into Zhang Yao's hands.
"Crack!"
Zhang Yao swallowed the light cyan ball in one gulp, chewed it a few times and swallowed it, showing a hint of enjoyment.
"The taste of magic weapon is still better, it is countless times better than spiritual weapons..."
For him, the more magic weapons he swallows and refines, the stronger his body becomes, and the greater the benefits of refining the 'Tai Xuan Golden Body' in the future.
The biggest gain this time was dozens of magic weapons of various colors, enough for him to eat without having to worry about them for many years.
Secondly, the ancient spiritual treasure Delusion-Breaking Heart Lamp can be used as a substitute before he refines the "Sun and Moon True Eyes". It is still very powerful in breaking delusions, overcoming weakness, and clearing away illusions, and is far from the golden elixir. The magic weapon is comparable.
Finally, and what he values most, is the ultimate reward from the Jade Palace, the ancient animal skin dossier of unknown material.
It's a pity that he knows nothing about Yin Erosion and Yang Engraving. For a long time, the pearl is destined to be covered in dust. In the short term, its value to him is not as good as those dozens of magic weapons.
In the main hall:
After Zhang Yao sorted out the harvest, he practiced qi meditation, adjusted his qi, and waited for Ancestor Zhenyang and others to come to his door.
Until a few hours later:
"Ancestor!"
At this time, an attendant outside the door hurried over and reported:
"Ancestor Qi, Ancestor Zhenyang, Ancestor Sanshan, and Ancestor Loneliness are here. They said they have something to do and want to visit the ancestors."
"Following your instructions, we invited several ancestors to wait in the front hall."
"It came so quickly!"
Zhang Yao smiled slightly and said:
"You go down first, I will go see them later."
"yes."
The attendant responded respectfully, bowed and retreated.
Zhang Yao picked up the spiritual tea unhurriedly and sipped it slowly. After finishing the pot of spiritual tea, Shi Shiran stood up and walked towards the front hall.
