190 Picked Up a Treasure

At night, Jiang Ming sat in the room, stroking a big black bow in his hand. He was slowly replacing the foreign spiritual energy in it with his own.

This was the process of refining a magical weapon. Only when a magical weapon was completely refined could it be controlled as if it was an extension of one’s arm. The higher the grade of a magical weapon, the more difficult it was to refine.

Qi Refinement Realm cultivators could only refine magical tools and weapons up to the middle grade.

Everything above the middle grade could only be refined by Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators and above. However, the price of high-grade magical tools was frighteningly high, and they were very rare. More than half of the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators only used middle-grade magical tools.

“It’s already been half a month. However, it’s still not done,” Jiang Ming mumbled to himself. However, his eyes flashed with satisfaction. After all, the harder it was to refine, the higher the value of the bow.

“This black bow was probably the most valuable thing that the female cultivator owned. Its value is probably much higher than my Spirit Sword Shuttle.”

Jiang Ming had been hiding out in Hongyang City for the past two weeks. Most of his time was spent refining the Spirit Sword Shuttle and the black bow. After all, these two things were the most valuable things he had on him.

In his spare time, he would check and study the other spoils of war.

There was no need to talk about the short man. He was obviously cannon fodder. Other than a worthless Earth Escape Technique, he only had a hundred or so spirit stones, a few elementary magical tools, pills, and some other miscellaneous items. It was better than nothing. However, it was not much.

Even killing this man felt like a waste of time.

The female cultivator’s storage ring was a treasure trove. There were seven or eight hundred spirit stones stored there alone. With the addition of medicinal pills, talismans, and magical weapons, the things in her storage ring alone were probably more than Jiang Ming’s hard-earned savings for the past two decades.

A wave of bitterness washed over Jiang Ming.

Suddenly, the black bow in his hand was filled with spiritual light. Threads of faint golden lightning sparked and danced around the bow, filling it with a violent destructive aura.

“Phew! After half a month, I’ve finally completed the initial stage of the refining process!”

Jiang Ming’s face was full of joy. The Spirit Sword Shuttle only took him four or five days to refine. In comparison, the time spent on just the initial stage of refinement of this black bow was three times higher.

A piece of information related to magical tools was also transmitted into Jiang Ming’s mind at the same time.

“This is the Thunderous Bow. It is a middle-grade magical weapon. It can release the power of thunder and lightning after activation. The power of this bow can be increased by thunder cultivators.”

Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows. Thunder was one of the rarest elements to master, and it was extremely difficult to practice. How could he find a thunder elemental technique to cultivate?

Jiang Ming’s eyes suddenly moved. The information did not specify that it had to be a thunder elemental technique from the world of immortal cultivation.

Although the Thunderclap Technique he cultivated was a method to temper his body, could it also be regarded as a thunder elemental technique here? After all, even until now, Jiang Ming had not mastered this technique.

He guessed that the Thunderclap Technique’s foundation and origin were probably not inferior to immortal cultivation methods. After all, there were many secrets buried in the mortal world.

With this in mind, Jiang Ming immediately walked into the courtyard with the Thunderous Bow in his hand. He could not wait to activate the Thunderclap Technique. He started practicing the fist technique of the Thunderclap Technique in the small courtyard.

His vigorous blood Qi began to circulate, surging in his bones and blood vessels, faintly giving off the m.u.f.fled sound of thunder.

As Jiang Ming practiced the Thunderclap Technique, the golden arc of electricity on the bow seemed to become more active. It kept jumping up. It was as if it was responding to Jiang Ming’s fist technique.

The Thunderous Bow in Jiang Ming’s hand suddenly trembled. Golden sparks of electricity flickered on the bow. It was as if it was suddenly in tune with his breathing.

As Jiang Ming’s fist technique became faster and faster, the electricity on the bow also became more and more dazzling. It was as if it could burst out at any time.

Jiang Ming could not wait to pour his spiritual energy into the bow and shoot an arrow. However, in this densely populated city, this was naturally not possible.

Jiang Ming retracted his fist and stood still, his eyes flas.h.i.+ng with ecstasy.

It actually worked. This time, he had really picked up a treasure! It also verified that the Thunderclap Technique was indeed extraordinary. It seemed like he had to practice more in the future.

“The Fire Lotus Valley is full of treasures!”

Jiang Ming’s face was serious, and he sighed with emotion from the bottom of his heart. When he was ready to enter the world of immortal cultivation, he was just a poor man. Even back then, the Fire Lotus Valley immediately sent people to welcome him with gifts.

“I’ll have to repay you in the future!”

Jiang Ming smiled.

Then, he thought of the female cultivator from the Fire Lotus Valley. She could use the Thunderous Bow with such terrifying power without using any thunder elemental technique. If he used it with the Thunderclap Technique, how powerful would it be?

“I must find a place to try it out when I have time.”

Jiang Ming loved it so much that he could not put it down. He just happened to need a magical weapon. This bow did not need to be close to him, and he could quietly shoot arrows from a distance as well. It suited his temperament perfectly.

However, he still needed to work on his accuracy.

The next day, Jiang Ming walked into Fuhai Restaurant.

This was one of the best restaurants in Hongyang City. Ordinary mortals could not afford to eat here. Thus, most of the customers here were cultivators.

“Sir, please come in!”

As soon as Jiang Ming walked to the door, he was enthusiastically led in by a waiter.

Although he had only revealed his cultivation to be at the fifth level of the Qi Refinement Realm m, he was already considered a big shot in this city that did not have any immortal cultivation forces. Most of the cultivators here were not even in the middle stage of the Qi Refinement Realm.

“Mr. Jiang!”

“Ming!”

In the restaurant, many people quickly greeted Jiang Ming when they saw him. Jiang Ming also responded with a smile and asked them about recent events.

“Mr. Jiang, you really have great foresight. I heard from a friend that the armies of the Fire Lotus Valley and the Qingyin Pavillion have arrived at Xiaoqian Mountain and are marching toward the main peak. Both sides are fighting to the death, and many individual cultivators are also affected.”

“It’s thanks to your foresight that you didn’t fall into that mess!”

They complimented him enthusiastically.

Jiang Ming smiled. He did not hide the fact that he had escaped from Xiaoqian Mountain. After all, this was not a secret. There were many individual cultivators in the city who did the same.

“Xiaoqian Mountain lost a Golden Core Realm cultivator and still hasn’t been broken through?” Jiang Ming asked curiously.

“I heard that even the Golden Core Realm cultivators didn’t make a move. It seems like they’re afraid of something.” One man shook his head.

Jiang Ming was dumbfounded. Those who could reach the Golden Core Realm were all cunning indeed. They had injured the Golden Core Realm cultivator of Xiaoqian Mountain and got away with it. However, they were still afraid that there was a trap.

Jiang Ming looked at the person who spoke. He was also injured, and Jiang Ming heard that he had just escaped from Xiaoqian Mountain.

The man’s face was gloomy as he paused his wine gla.s.s. His eyes were filled with humiliation as he continued, “May G.o.d help those b*stards from the Fire Lotus Valley. I’ll remember them for sure. They chased us like rabbits and even called it a part of their training. More than half of the people who escaped with me have died!”

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a clamor in the surroundings. It was obvious that many people had escaped from Xiaoqian Mountain. Furthermore, they also encountered such incidents on the way down the mountain. For a moment, the crowd was agitated, and they began to condemn the Fire Lotus Valley.

“However, I heard that there are also heroic figures among us individual cultivators. They killed the genius disciples of the Fire Lotus Valley and escaped unscathed!” someone suddenly shouted.

“Hey, they f*cking deserve it. If I was strong enough, I would kill a few of them as well!”

“There’s another piece of breaking news. I don’t know if it’s true or not, but a heavenly-grade Qi Refinement Realm genius from the Fire Lotus Valley has gone missing. It’s said that she has disappeared without any trace.”

“Really?” The others were shocked.

The disciples of the Fire Lotus Valley were divided into three grades. The heavenly-grade disciples were the most powerful, and the mortal-grade disciples were the weakest. The earthly-grade disciples were the ones in between. There were no more than thirty heavenly-grade disciples in each generation.

“No way! Those disciples are guaranteed to be Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators in the future. They have all kinds of techniques and magical tools. Even if they can’t win, they can still escape. How could they be killed?”

“I heard that she didn’t even have time to use the summoning talisman, and she even lost an important magical tool. I heard that it’s related to the Black Rock Ruins. Maybe she was taken by surprise. After all, the Qingyin Pavillion also sent people to attack Xiaoqian Mountain.”

The situation was chaotic. However, many people were happy to see this. They could not wait for the Fire Lotus Valley and the Qingyin Pavillion to end up killing each other.

“The Fire Lotus Valley has done many evil things. Sooner or later, they will be destroyed!”

“What’s this? The one I killed seemed to be an important figure?” Jiang Ming had his meal in silence.

He heard some more news before he left quietly. The people in the restaurant were still wis.h.i.+ng for the destruction of the Fire Lotus Valley.

“It seems that the chaos in Xiaoqian Mountain won’t end soon. Let’s find a place to cultivate first!” Jiang Ming walked out of the restaurant, took out the map he bought, and began to browse it.

* * *

Half an hour later, outside the city, Jiang Ming flew out on a flying sword. After half a day, he finally landed in a vast mountain range.

“The Blue Suns.h.i.+ne Mountain Range is a place where spiritual energy gathers. However, due to its chaotic magnetic field, the spiritual energy produced here is violent and heterogeneous. It is not suitable for survival and cultivation. However, it has given birth to many demonic beasts. It is rumored that in the deepest part of the mountain range, there are beasts that can even contend with Golden Core Realm cultivators. However, the Blue Suns.h.i.+ne Mountain Range stretches for ten thousand miles. If I only wander around the periphery, there shouldn’t be any danger. Moreover, it’s deserted. Thus, hardly any cultivators will come here!”

Jiang Ming muttered to himself and slowly walked into the mountain range. After a moment, he changed his ident.i.ty. Then, he flicked his wrist and took out the Thunderous Bow.

This bow was amazing. However, it was too conspicuous. If he used it in the future, he had to make sure that there were no witnesses.
