Chapter 2046 Acquired Spiritual Treasure
As Qin Sang stepped into the hall, several eyes immediately stared at him. He glanced around and saw five people sitting in the hall.
The main seat was empty. On the left side of the main seat was a short old man who sat there with his feet dangling in the air. His feet were very large and next to him was a purple wooden dragon-headed cane. The dragon head was carved very realistically and the cane was as tall as two of him.
There were two women sitting next to the old man, a beautiful woman and a young girl. They looked quite similar and must be related by blood. I wonder if they were mother and daughter.
There was a man in a black robe sitting on the right side of the main seat, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was in meditation. He only opened his eyes and glanced at Qin Sang when he came in, then immediately looked away.
The last one is quite peculiar. He has two heads on his shoulders. Their facial features are almost the same, but one has long hair, a flying bun, and is dressed as a woman, while the other has a short beard under his chin, showing a completely different temperament.
This weirdo was too eye-catching, and Qin Sang couldn't help but take a second look at him. It was rumored that the aliens had all kinds of strange appearances, and some even had no demonic features, and looked very much like deformed fetuses among the human race, for example, they were as small as mice, had unusually long hands and feet, ears longer than their heads, and so on.
This person doesn't look like an alien.
"hey-hey……"
When Qin Sang's eyes met, the male leader of the strange people laughed strangely, "No matter how high your cultivation level is, you will always be surprised to see brothers and sisters like us."
The female leader simply gave Qin Sang a cold look, and it was obvious that her temperament was very different.
Taoist Luo Hua introduced: "This is fellow Daoist Chi Yuan and fellow Daoist Bi Yuan. You have been invited by our sect to come and help. You two Daoists were conjoined twins in the mother's womb and coexist in one body."
Qin Sang was secretly surprised. He knew that there were many skills and secret techniques in the world created specifically for twins. It was said that twins could communicate with each other's minds, support each other on the path of cultivation, and achieve twice the result with half the effort.
This is the first time I have seen conjoined twins of Void-Refining Monks.
What’s even more peculiar is that the strange men claimed to be brother and sister, but Qin Sang did not sense two different auras. Could it be that the two consciousnesses are actually one?
This matter involved the other party's secrets, so Qin Sang didn't want to ask more questions. He just bowed and said, "My two Taoist friends are polite."
"This is Fellow Daoist Yu..."
Taoist Luo Hua pointed at the man in black robe and introduced all five people in the hall starting with the weird man.
The two women were indeed mother and daughter. The beautiful woman was called Madam Shuanghua. She was invited and brought her daughter with her to let her see the world.
The old man’s Buddhist name is Tonghu Zhenren, and he is also a Taoist master.
Finally, Master Luo Hua introduced Qin Sang to everyone. Upon learning that Qin Sang was an elder of the Five Elements Alliance, even the most indifferent cultivator named Yu stood up and bowed.
Qin Sang greeted them one by one, and sat down next to the weirdo without paying attention to his seat. After a brief exchange, he learned that the four people in the field were all masters of refining weapons, the monk surnamed Yu and Master Tonghu were also guest elders of the Five Elements Alliance, and the weirdo and Madam Shuanghua had other backgrounds.
"Master, now that Elder Qin has arrived, there should be no other fellow Taoists here, right? Could you please tell us what you are going to do this time?" Master Tonghu asked leisurely, swaying his big feet.
Taoist Luo Hua sat down at the main seat and said, "It seems that Taoist Tong Hu has been getting impatient."
"It's not just Fellow Daoist Tonghu. We've been staying in your sect for many days with nothing to do, and we feel uneasy," Madam Shuanghua said lightly.
The strange male leader laughed strangely again, "What kind of trouble did the master encounter this time? We will know it sooner or later. Since we are here, we are not afraid of danger. Why should we keep it secret so strictly? It will only make everyone more uneasy."
Hearing this, Luo Hua Zhenren smiled slightly, "I think all of you Taoist friends have heard some plausible rumors, thinking that I will lead you into a dangerous place. Little do you know that I deliberately spread this to confuse you."
Everyone was stunned.
Qin Sang thought to himself that there was something fishy about this commission. It was probably because the other elders were unwilling to take it over and the alliance took advantage of him because he was new. There was no need to deceive him. He only needed to hide some key information and avoid the important things. As long as he was tempted by the treasure, it would be difficult to verify it in a short time.
Moreover, Qin Sang could not resent the alliance. Even if he was tricked into coming, he still had the opportunity to refuse. At most, it would be a wasted trip. If he agreed, he could not blame others if he encountered a crisis later.
Except for Madam Shuanghua's daughter, all the people in the hall were Void-Refining Cultivators. They were mature and steady. Although they were surprised, they did not lose their composure. Master Tonghu asked in a serious tone, "What is the deep meaning of this action of the temple master?"
"First, it is to conceal the true purpose of our sect, and second, it is used to exclude those with strong backgrounds," said Taoist Luo Hua.
Everyone fell into deep thought, looked around, and vaguely understood what Master Luo Hua meant.
Those with great heritage and background would not look favorably upon such commissions which have relatively generous rewards but are also of unknown danger. They have no shortage of resources for cultivation, so why take risks?
Qin Sang had just joined the Five Elements Alliance and behaved like a casual cultivator. Elder Qi, who had introduced him to the alliance, even suspected that he was an ascended cultivator from the lower realm. Just now, from the introductions of other people, none of them looked like heirs of major sects.
With no background and all his accomplishments gained through hard work, he is more easily attracted by opportunities and is better able to grasp them.
Luo Huaguan thought it took a lot of thought to select these five people.
"Master, please stop keeping us in suspense and tell us exactly what you want us to do," Master Tonghu shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Luo Hua Zhenren looked gloomy and looked around at everyone. "You still have a chance to refuse now. Once I tell you everything, you must not leave my sect until the matter is accomplished, otherwise don't blame me for turning against you. I can swear here as a witness that you are absolutely safe!"
Everyone looked at each other and no one left. Master Shuanghua sent a message to her daughter, ordering her to retreat. The girl did not dare to act willfully and could only leave Xuanshui Palace reluctantly.
All kinds of thoughts flashed through Qin Sang's mind, but he did not retreat.
Luo Hua Zhenren smiled with satisfaction, "This is also an opportunity for you all. You are all weapon refining masters, and you must all know about acquired spiritual treasures. But has anyone ever refined one personally?"
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed immediately. Thinking of a possibility, the aloof and weird female leader's breath became a little heavier.
Master Tong Hu's eyes flashed with brilliance, "Master, please stop joking. How can everyone cultivate a post-natal spiritual treasure? I believe I have some ability in the art of refining weapons, and I won't have any delusions."
"Not bad!"
The cultivator surnamed Yu nodded, "The acquired spiritual treasure breeds the instrument spirit. This level requires the merit of good fortune and is as difficult as ascending to heaven. I don't have a master to teach me, so even if I have the cultivation level of fellow Taoist, I dare not hope for it."
Madam Shuanghua and the strange man did not say anything, and judging from their expressions, they seemed to have the same idea.
Qin Sang's thoughts were much more complicated. It seemed that in the world, acquired spiritual treasures were indeed extremely rare. No wonder he had seen so many Void Refining cultivators, but had never seen any.
However, he has two items that are expected to become acquired spiritual treasures, one is Xiaowu and the other is Yunyou Sword. But these two treasures are both very lucky and have been enlightened by Ziwei Tongzi.
For ordinary weapon refiners, refining an acquired spiritual treasure is indeed as difficult as ascending to heaven.
I don’t know if it will be easier when I reach the fusion stage.
Luo Hua Zhenren's words seemed to mean that Luo Hua Temple wanted them to refine a post-natal spiritual treasure. Qin Sang couldn't miss this opportunity. If he could learn a little from it, it would be of great benefit to Xiao Wu's transformation in the future!
"Just as you fellow Taoists thought, I want to refine an acquired spiritual treasure, and I hope you can help me with all your efforts!"
Master Luo Hua stood up and bowed.
Everyone was excited. Master Tong Hu's eyes flashed with excitement. "I wonder how the master wants us to help? Could it be that your sect has a superior inheritance of the way of refining weapons that you are willing to share with us? If so, I am willing to not ask for any reward!"
This question expressed the thoughts of everyone.
Luo Hua Zhenren nodded and said, "There is indeed a secret technique. I am not sure whether it originated from the way of refining weapons. However, this technique has extremely high requirements for the practitioner. With my cultivation level, I can only barely master it."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked and calmed down from their excitement.
The strange female leader asked coldly, "Since you can't practice, how can we help you?"
The male leader agreed, "Unless the temple master just wants to find someone to help him."
"Since I have invited you all to come here, it must be for a great purpose. I need you to help me until the last moment. Otherwise, why would I be so cautious? Although you are unable to practice the secret technique, I have a way to solve it. My sect has a treasured spell called the Unbarrier Seal. When the time comes, I will cast the spell and apply the spell to you. Then, I can use your hands to practice the secret technique together."
When Master Luo Hua said this, everyone was in an uproar.
The leader of the weirdos shouted angrily, "Absurd! With the spell on my body and my mind under your control, are we going to be at your mercy?"
The others were also furious and wanted to slam the table and stand up.
Qin Sang, on the contrary, was the calmest. He had the Jade Buddha by his side and was not afraid of this kind of talisman.
"Everyone, please be patient and listen to what I have to say in detail," Luo Hua Zhenren said to comfort them and detailed the plan of Luo Hua Temple.
After Master Luo Hua finished speaking, everyone put away their anger and fell into deep thought. You could hear a pin drop in the hall. Master Luo Hua did not rush them and waited patiently for their answers.
It turned out that for some reason, the acquired spiritual treasure that Luo Hua Temple wanted to refine could not be made by Luo Hua alone, and six weapon-refining masters were needed to help.
Luohua Temple can produce another real person, and the remaining five positions must be found from the outside world.
When refining the weapon, the six people assisted in the ritual and refining, and at the same time cooperated with Master Luo Hua to perform secret techniques through the Barrier-Free Seal.
But Master Luo Hua could not control their minds, he could only perform secret techniques through their hands. When Master Luo Hua's thoughts came, everyone just had to stay true to themselves and follow the guidance.
No wonder Master Luo Hua did not choose people with strong backgrounds. They would not be able to participate in the entire refining process. Each person would only be responsible for a part and would not be able to obtain the complete secret technique. They would also run the risk of being controlled.
For them, the experience they gained is of course of great value and a rare opportunity, but this is not the case for the descendants of the major sects.
It must be known that when refining the weapon, Master Luo Hua also needs their willing cooperation. If someone has ill intentions and intends to resist, although the treasure will not be destroyed on the spot, it will also cause great obstacles.
Taoist Luo Hua's expression changed slightly as he noticed that the people in the hall were communicating with each other through voice transmission, but he did not stop them and looked at them calmly.
Qin Sang also participated in the discussion. After several people talked together, they found all the hidden dangers.
After a while, Master Tong Hu said, "Master, could you please bring the talisman so that we can see it?"
"Of course you can. Once you see the Unbarrier Seal, you will know that this seal has no function of controlling the mind!"
Luo Hua Zhenren was very straightforward. He immediately sent a message and ordered people to take it. He said: "With your merits and deeds, once the talisman is cast, any obstacles to you will definitely not be hidden from your spiritual perception. When I am refining the treasure, if I dare to do something wrong, you just work together to fight back."
Master Luo Hua spoke earnestly, and everyone remained silent. They would only make a decision after looking at the talisman.
Qin Sang looked at the others. Madam Shuanghua was in the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm, and the others were in the early stage of the Void Refining Realm. Together, they were a strong force. If they fought back, even if Luo Hua Zhenren took action personally, Luo Hua Temple would have to pay a heavy price.
Next, everyone, including Qin Sang, asked their own questions, and Master Luo Hua answered them one by one.
Not long after, a strong aura came from outside the hall, and a Taoist pushed the door open and walked in, holding a jade box in his hand.
"This is Junior Brother Quan, he will help me together with all of you," Zhenren Luo Hua motioned Zhenren Quan to open the jade box, and then a faint light was seen coming out of it, and a transparent talisman slowly flew up.
This talisman is one foot long and three inches wide. The spell is mysterious, as if it is carved on a gem, floating in front of everyone.
In order to gain everyone's trust, Master Luo Hua actually revealed some of the methods of activation. After everyone looked at it carefully, they fell silent again.
After a long while, Madam Shuanghua suddenly spoke up, "Yanling City must have an underground fire furnace. Can Yanling City be chosen as the place for refining treasures?"
Everyone's expression changed and they all looked at Master Luo Hua.
Luo Hua Zhenren frowned and pondered for a moment. "Well, if we fail at the last moment, forget about it. As long as the weapon spirit is accomplished and enters the tribulation stage, it will be too late for others to stop us. I will follow Madam's advice! However, all the arrangements still need to be moved from the sect, so we have to wait for some time."
Qin Sang and the others all looked relieved and said it was okay.
So it was decided that the day for refining the weapon would be after March.
Within three months, Qin Sang and others were not allowed to leave Luohua Temple at all times, and there were always people following them.
Qin Sang didn't care at all. He asked Master Yuhong to take him to almost all parts of Luohua Temple and visited Jufu's family several times.
……
Three months later.
Yanling City.
Luohua Temple has made all kinds of arrangements, and Qin Sang and others secretly gathered in a fire room.
Master Luo Hua made further modifications to the fire chamber, building a high platform and placing a brass furnace with animal ears.
Qin Sang sat cross-legged in the south of the treasure furnace, and the others also occupied a position. In front of each of them, many spiritual materials were suspended, which were needed for the subsequent sacrifice.
Zhenren Luo Hua was located in the very center, sitting cross-legged in the air above the treasure furnace.
'boom! ’
The forbidden light on the high platform flickered, the spiritual fire grew stronger, blazing flames came out of the furnace mouth, and the fire chamber suddenly became scorching hot.
Everyone was at the level of Refining Void Cultivation and was completely unaware of this, as they all looked towards Master Luo Hua.
Master Luo Hua just shook his sleeves, and a ball of spiritual light fell into the treasure furnace. The spiritual fire was dormant for a moment, and then erupted again.
Everyone vaguely saw that there was a foot-long object in the spiritual light.
Without waiting for everyone to think carefully, Luo Hua took out the barrier-free seal, pinched the seal with his hands, and shouted in a deep voice: "Fellow Taoists, please gather your true energy first!"
