Chapter 45 Encountering Qi and Transforming into a Dragon
Lin Jing nodded: "It's very valuable. I don't know where they got the materials from, but my grandfather praised them highly. He charged 80,000 spirit stones just for the crafting fee."
"Eighty thousand?"
Chen Chunan and Chen Hongxian, who hadn't said much, both exclaimed in surprise at the same time.
Lin Jing nodded firmly: "Because my grandfather personally crafted these! The cost of 80,000 low-grade spirit stones for refining these treasures may seem expensive, but these two sword pellets are extremely extraordinary. If they were auctioned off, they would fetch 200,000 and there would be plenty of people vying for them."
hiss~
"You, uh, is our grandpa that amazing?"
Hearing Chen Chunan's shameless words, even the usually carefree Lin Jing couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"That's my grandfather!! My grandfather is a Golden Core cultivator, and he is most skilled at refining sword pellets. High-quality sword pellets can be used as natal magic weapons, and they will not be outdated even when used by Nascent Soul or Divine Transformation cultivators. Of course, your materials must be good. The materials for these two sword pellets are very good."
After saying that, Lin Jingying opened her mouth, and a sword pellet came out and hovered in the air.
Chen Chunan's attention was instantly drawn: "This sword pellet?"
"My grandfather's usual practice when refining weapons is to collect an extra batch of materials from the same batch. This one was a gift from him, hehe."
Lin Jing smiled with a hint of pride. This sword pellet was extraordinary; it was specially left to her by her grandfather as her natal sword.
"Wait a minute, your grandfather is a Golden Core cultivator, you wouldn't happen to be the granddaughter of the Lin family head, would you?"
Lin Jing shook her head: "If the Lin family only has two Golden Core cultivators, they are not qualified to participate in the market. Just like the Lieyang Sect, they have more than three Golden Core cultivators. As far as I know, their Shaoyang Peak Master, Xu Jingshui, is also a Golden Core cultivator."
Chen Chunan couldn't help but sigh: What a bunch of cunning old foxes! Each of them is hiding their fighting power!
"You're quite lucky. These two sword pellets are made of excellent materials, rare objects imbued with innate energy. My grandfather didn't know their exact origin, but sword pellets made from them can easily break through even ordinary spiritual weapons, let alone magic weapons. If you refine these two sword pellets, you can easily kill a cultivator at the first level of Foundation Establishment in a head-on battle."
...
After Lin Jing instructed Chen Chunan on the essentials of refining the sword pill, she took her leave.
Chen Chunan's eyes were subtle: Old Dog Liu spent so much money to refine the sword pill, and during the auction, Old Dog said he wanted to cultivate a Foundation Establishment successor.
Chen Chunan guessed that it was probably related to the death of the Blood Demon.
They are missing a Foundation Establishment cultivator, so they need to quickly recruit a new one; otherwise, their position will be unstable.
This sword pellet was probably prepared for that person who was about to reach the Foundation Establishment stage.
However, since I killed Liu Sen today, I'm afraid it will drive that old dog completely mad. I should let the family leave as soon as possible.
After careful consideration, Chen Chunan secretly rejoiced that he had made a decisive move to leave Lin Jing's house with the red thread after returning.
Chen Chunan's actions today have undoubtedly thwarted Liu Guisheng's plans.
He will certainly not let this go.
"No! Lin Jing is in danger!"
Chen Chunan woke up instantly and jumped onto the roof.
Just as they were about to go and report the news, a delicate shout came from Lin Jing's residence in the distance.
Immediately, a figure was knocked to the ground, letting out a suppressed scream.
That mournful cry belonged to Liu Guisheng.
Lin Jing then floated into the air, sneering at the spot where Liu Guisheng had fallen: "How dare you! Daring to spy on me? Today, you'll be caught without a trace!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a sword rang out, and then it transformed into a dragon and pounced straight at Liu Guisheng on the ground.
Chen Chunan was overjoyed. This old dog was actually taken down by Lin Jing with a single sword strike?!
This is the perfect opportunity to finish off a dog that's down on its luck!
He suppressed his excitement and used the Concealing Breath Technique to rush towards the spot where Liu Guisheng had landed, a lightning spell already taking shape in his hand.
But just as he was about to unleash his lightning magic, Liu Guisheng's body surged with light and vanished instantly.
Lin Jing's flying sword also missed its target.
Chen Chunan was completely stunned when he rushed over and found no one there: "Holy crap! Where did they go?"
Lin Jing's face darkened: "It's a teleportation talisman! The person is already hundreds of miles away."
"What a pity, that old dog got away! If I had known you could beat him, I should have listened to you today and joined you in your sting operation."
Chen Chunan looked regretful, completely unaware that Lin Jing's face had turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
"You mean, he actually came to see you?"
Lin Jing's chilling voice instantly made Chen Chunan shudder.
Chen Chunan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly turned around with a forced smile, saying, "I really didn't expect him to dare to take such a risk in the market. I originally thought he would at most stake out us siblings to find out who we are... Oh dear~"
"Bang!"
A long, slender leg kicked Chen Chunan away!
Chen Chunan got up, looking disheveled.
Lin Jing didn't even glance at him, only leaving behind the words: "You bastard, you almost made that old man see me naked!"
Chen Chunan froze on the spot.
No, big sister!
Do you take a shower or sleep naked?
Isn't it possible to replace rest with meditation and cultivation once you've reached the Foundation Establishment stage?
Chen Chunan felt he deserved the kick, but thankfully Lin Jing was strong; otherwise, things might have been very different now.
He dusted himself off and then returned home.
Meanwhile, Liu Guisheng on the other side was in a much worse situation.
Lin Jing's sword, wielded with hatred, pierced directly through his left shoulder.
If he hadn't dodged quickly, his head would have been gone.
"Why was that little beast at the Lin family's house before? Could it be that the Lin family did it on purpose? No, no, if the Lin family made a move, I, Duan Wusheng, might not survive! Is someone on their side trying to get my sword pill? That must be it! That Lin family woman is Lin Fangkun's granddaughter, Lin Jing!"
Thinking he had discovered the truth, Liu Guisheng laughed in fury: "Very well! Very well, Lin Fangkun! I'll remember you!"
Then he spread his palm, and a wisp of white aura appeared, slowly condensing into a small human figure.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be exactly the same as Chen Chunan's.
Liu Guisheng chuckled sinisterly, "This little beast, you've really chosen the path to hell when heaven is there! I was just wondering how to find you, and you've walked right into my trap! Too bad, I'm not here to kill you in the marketplace; I only want your scent!"
After saying that, he took out the small doll covered with black runes.
Upon seeing the white aura in Liu Guisheng's palm, the cloth-made face of the puppet suddenly seemed to come alive.
With a gulp, it swallowed the aura emanating from Chen Chunan, and immediately the black runes emitted a blood-red glow.
The black doll also turned blood red, looking unusually eerie.
Upon seeing this, Liu Guisheng smiled with satisfaction.
Without lingering, it shot off towards the nearest hiding place.
...
When Chen Chunan returned home, he saw Chen Hongxian playing with two sword pellets, rolling them around, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed.
"Red thread, this is a sword pellet, not a glass ball."
"Hehe, brother, these sword pellets attract each other! When I roll one, the other one follows. It's so much fun!"
"Is that so?" Chen Chunan reached out and summoned two sword pellets, which then landed in his hand. Sure enough, the two sword pellets attracted each other and became entangled together.
Chen Chunan probed in with his divine sense the instant.
"Ugh~~~"
Two resounding dragon roars, like the grandest bells, shook Chen Chunan's spirit, causing his breath to become disordered.
At the same time, countless divine thoughts surged into the sky from all corners of the world.
"Where did that dragon's roar come from?"
"Are there still true dragons alive?"
"The breathing is wrong! It's extremely weak!"
"It seems like a regrettable situation, possibly in the direction of Lingzhou in the Eastern Wilderness Region. Interesting!"
"We'll refrain from fighting and let the younger generation compete for it, shall we?"
"That's excellent!"
"..."
Countless divine thoughts collided wildly, and after exchanging information, the Central Region returned to calm once again.
