Imdiately, Master Xuan Shui began to recount the matter involving Feng Yichen in detail, without any concealnt.
"You an, suspecting that Feng Yichen is from Shang Court?"
The silver-haired old woman asked.
"Yes."
Master Xuan Shui straightened his back, "Aside from this, I can’t think of any other reason. Soone with no cultivation surviving at Ghost Flood Dragon Lake in Nine Nether Cave Heaven... that’s unusual enough."
"A place where no one has found the other entrance for thousands of years, yet he managed to find it—this is extrely strange."
"Aside from the possibility of being a remnant of Shang Court, I can’t think of anything else."
The silver-haired old woman leaned on her cane and paced back and forth in front of Master Xuan Shui.
"Your suspicion is not without reason."
"The people of Shang Court used unknown ans, many Nascent Souls didn’t completely die, and now, after all these years, they’re slowly waking up. They can’t bear to leave the mortal world."
The silver-haired old woman sneered, "Alright, I understand. Feng Yichen, is it? Give his aura, and I’ll find ti to et him and see what’s what."
"Yes."
Hearing that the ancestor was willing to take action, Master Xuan Shui sighed a breath of relief and then provided a blood-stained tattered robe.
"This is the Magic Robe he wore."
The silver-haired old woman glanced at it, and the blood-stained robe disappeared.
"Go, and don’t disturb unless necessary."
The ancestor issued a directive for departure, and Master Xuan Shui hurriedly bid farewell and left the place.
However, shortly after his departure, the silver-haired old woman raised the snake-headed cane in her hand, gently tapped the ground, and a green ripple spread forth.
The ripple passed over a tree stump to the right side of the valley.
A flash of brilliance, and a silhouette appeared atop the tree stump.
A handso-looking man, with his right foot raised, stepping on the stump, clad in a standardized Magic Robe of a Qi Cultivation Stage disciple from Water Dragon Sect, holding a wine jug and sipping from it.
If Master Xuan Shui were here, he would certainly recognize that the man before him was the one he just tried to report... Feng Yichen.
"Don’t stare at like that; I’m only trying to survive."
Feng Yichen drank the remaining wine in one gulp, then casually tossed the jug aside.
The silver-haired old woman just watched him, without speaking.
He helplessly retrieved the wine jug.
"I’ve been wondering, how much of what your Shang Court people say can be trusted?" the silver-haired old woman slowly spoke.
Feng Yichen smiled, stowed the emptied wine jug into his Storage Bag, then stood up and stretched. "That’s all irrelevant, what matters is... how confident are you, Kong Xifeng, in breaking through to Late-stage Nascent Soul?"
The silver-haired old woman, Kong Xifeng, was silent for a while, finally saying:
"I’m the only Nascent Soul Cultivator in Water Dragon Sect, so when it cos to a critical ti, I must protect our sect. Situ the Demon must understand this."
"I understand, I understand."
Feng Yichen nodded repeatedly, "We’ve all co through this, how could I not understand the principle."
"..."
"If only we had three Spiritual Energy Cannons, one stationed on Wuyou Island, one on Mist Island, and one carried on the person, it would ensure security no matter where one faces trouble... Firing all three at once, even a level 1 Spiritual Energy Cannon, could make many Golden Core Zhenren hesitate to approach."
"It’s just a pity they’re hard to buy, seems I still have to wait for my Artifact Refining skills to improve and create them myself."
Ji Yuan pondered, revolving around the Spiritual Energy Cannon.
Since this structure is enabled, let’s see if it can be upgraded to level 2.
To be able to destroy Peak Golden Core Cultivators, it can certainly be considered a trump card.
With this thought, Ji Yuan summoned the panel to take a look.
[Upgrade Conditions: Mid-grade Spirit Stones ×2000 pieces; Tier Two Artifact Refiner; Tier Two Array Master; Spiritual Energy Stones ×5 pieces; Silver Moon teorite Rock ×50 pounds; Tier Three Demon Pill ×1. (Not Yet Fulfilled)]
Though 2000 Spirit Stones are quite a lot, Ji Yuan can manage to procure them.
As for Tier Two Artifact Refiner, while not there yet, with effort, it’s reachable.
A Tier Three Demon Pill can also be bought, or ask the master for one if unaffordable.
It’s simply that Spiritual Energy Stones are relatively hard to obtain.
Ji Yuan presently counts as an Artifact Refiner and has naturally heard of these materials.
Silver Moon teorite Rock is the main material for crafting Spiritual Energy Cannons, but the consumption isn’t this vast.
According to the "True Explanation of Artifact Refining," crafting one Spiritual Energy Cannon only requires 10 pounds of Silver Moon teorite Rock.
Currently, upgrading to level 2 requires 50 pounds... Ji Yuan estimated even sweeping the entire Water Dragon Sect might not gather enough.
After all, good materials are never lacking in markets, holders prefer to trade items for the treasures they need.
The remaining Spiritual Energy Stones are even more so.
They are mostly materials needed by Golden Core Zhenren to craft Magical Treasures, not found even on Water Dragon Sect’s All Things Island.
Ji Yuan plans to seek Li Changhe or Hua Yaoyue if he can’t find them.
Seeking those two should resolve it.
Going out to search for materials himself is sothing Ji Yuan won’t do.
Thus, the imdiate priority is to first improve Artifact Refining skills.
If the hard conditions aren’t t, it’s futile to talk about anything.
Regarding other matters, Ji Yuan plans to wait until the Spiritual Energy Cannon upgrade is complete, then prepare the next sword embryo gathering location, after all, no matter how many constructions, in the end, real asure lies in cultivation.
The gathering of three Flying Sword embryos succeeded, and it’s ti to prepare for the next sword embryo.
As for where to go next... Ji Yuan plans to first settle nearby.
Next is the Ancient Battlefield Ruins located in the Corpse Transporting Mountain territory north of Water Dragon Sect.
