Avenue Stowaway

When Elder Qingmu discovered that the person who was speaking was Kong Fang, the first person to come out of the underground refining room, he suddenly felt a glimmer of hope.

"Since you asked, let me tell you about it." Elder Qingmu nodded slightly and said, "We are going to refine a special treasure this time. If you can achieve the Fire Refining Golden Body during the refining process, the power of this treasure will be greatly improved after it is successfully refined. The reason why we want to select refiners is to find those with outstanding refining abilities."

Everyone understood Elder Qingmu's simple explanation, but even though they understood Elder Qingmu's purpose, they still had no idea how to deal with the refining this time. The Fire Refined Golden Body is not something that can be achieved by luck; it requires real refining skills.

Kong Fang pondered and said nothing, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Elder Qingmu, since you need the Fire Refining Golden Body to appear when refining treasures, why don't you directly look for those 'Weapon Demons'?" A person who sat at the same table with Wang Sui suddenly asked.

The 'Weapon Demons' that this person mentioned are a very special group in the Weapon Sect. Although the people in this group all have the identity of inner hall disciples, they cannot be considered pure inner hall disciples.

The training of the inner hall disciples of the Qi Sect is not only to cultivate their ability to refine weapons, but also to improve their strength. However, it is impossible for everyone in this world to have excellent talents, just like the three people who survived with Kong Fang in the secret house. They have two or even three talents, but the talents are too weak to support their cultivation.

Although there are no weapon demons whose talents are so weak that they cannot practice, most of them have talents that are not much better. If they keep practicing, they may achieve something, but it is hard to say how big the achievement will be. Maybe they are stuck at the bottleneck from the Spiritual Entry Realm to the Spiritual Ascension Realm and can never break through, or maybe they are stuck at the bottleneck from the Spiritual Ascension Realm to the Spiritual Transformation Realm and can never break through.

Therefore, some people who find it difficult to achieve great success in spiritual practice will choose to take another path, which is to refine weapons.

Of course, there are people with great talents among weapon demons. However, although these people have great talents, they are also extremely obsessed with refining weapons. They devote themselves to studying the methods of refining weapons and work hard to improve their own refining skills.

These people were simply obsessed with refining weapons, and it was not an exaggeration to say that they were possessed by the devil, so this group of people were called weapon demons. To be called a weapon demon, their weapon refining abilities were naturally not low, and even the worst of them could refine a mid-grade acquired spiritual treasure.

Of course, this also depends on how long they have been studying refining. The latest of these people became inner hall disciples ten years ago, and some have even been inner hall disciples for dozens or even hundreds of years.

This is a special group of people. Although they all have the status of inner hall disciples, they are no longer considered inner hall disciples. If this group of people are still considered inner hall disciples, people like Pang Tiansheng who have not yet broken through the Soul Summoning Realm will not be able to rank in the top ten inner hall disciples, let alone in the top thousand.

Hearing the question from the man next to Wang Sui, Elder Qingmu shook his head and smiled bitterly, but said nothing.

Wang Sui and others at the same table looked at the speaker as if he were an idiot. Wang Sui frowned even more, but finally explained for the speaker: "The Wood Sect is going to refine low-grade acquired spiritual treasures this time. You ask them to find those weapon demons who can at least refine medium-grade acquired spiritual treasures. How will you pay them? You must know that no matter what the weapon demons refine, their rewards are calculated according to their weapon refining ability."

"Ah?" The man exclaimed, and only then did he realize what an idiotic question he had just asked. His face turned red.

Wang Sui shook his head and ignored this person, but turned his gaze to Kong Fang. He wanted to know why Kong Fang asked such a question just now. If the Fire Refining Golden Body could not appear during the refining of the weapon, rashly asking the question just now would make Elder Qingmu and others unhappy. After all, this was to pry into the other party's secrets.

Elder Qingmu also understood this, so he also looked at Kong Fang who was keeping his head down and not saying anything. Influenced by Elder Qingmu and Wang Sui, the others couldn't help but look at Kong Fang. For a moment, Kong Fang became the most watched person.

Just when everyone thought Kong Fang had fallen asleep, he suddenly spoke: "I am good at making blanks. If Elder Qingmu can give me double the reward, I can do the step of making blanks."

Kong Fang looked up at Elder Qingmu. There was a faint smile on his face, but his eyes were calm, as if what he had just said was just a very ordinary matter, and not a request that made Wang Sui and others feel a bit incredible.

Wang Sui and the other twelve disciples of Qi Zong, as well as Zi Feng and the middle-aged man, all fourteen of them looked at Kong Fang in amazement.

Double the reward will be given to those who can have a 10% chance of the Fire-Refined Golden Body appearing when refining the weapon. Kong Fang only said that he was good at making weapon blanks, but did not mention whether the Fire-Refined Golden Body would appear or not, not to mention that there is a very important condition - that is, the chance of the Fire-Refined Golden Body appearing must be at least 10%.

Is it crazy to expect double pay just for being good at making blanks?

"It's over. He dared to make such an absurd request. In a rage, Elder Qingmu might directly cancel his qualification to refine equipment and let him return to the sect." The person who didn't know Kong Fang whispered.

"Canceling the qualification to refine equipment is still a mild measure. I wouldn't be surprised if they were directly thrown out of the Wood Sect for making such a request."

At this moment, not only those who didn't know Kong Fang thought that Kong Fang's request was too incredible and unacceptable, but also Wang Sui and others who had just gotten to know Kong Fang also thought that Kong Fang's request was too exaggerated. They all admired Kong Fang's courage to get double the reward just for making the blank.

How can one not have the courage to make such a request to a powerful person in the Spiritual Transformation Realm?

"What we want is the Fire-Refined Golden Body to appear when refining the weapon, not just manufacturing the blank. Moreover, it is impossible for the Fire-Refined Golden Body to appear just by manufacturing the blank. Although I don't know how to refine weapons, I also know that in order for the Fire-Refined Golden Body to appear, both the removal of impurities and the manufacturing of the blank must be done to near perfection." Zifeng's voice became a little cold, and he felt that Kong Fang was really ungrateful.

However, Zifeng was still polite and didn't directly expel them. Even if they were to expel them directly at this time, Wang Sui and others would not be surprised. Because Kong Fang's request was not reasonable at all, but more like something he said deliberately to cause trouble.

Although the middle-aged man did not speak, his expression became unfriendly. Although they could not hurt the disciples of the Weapon Sect, it would not matter if they were thrown out directly from the Wood Sect. Moreover, even if the leader of the Weapon Sect came in person, there would be no reason to say that it was their fault.

Elder Qingmu looked at Kong Fang, who was smiling but with a calm look. Suddenly, a strange smile appeared on Elder Qingmu's face, and the words he said made the dozen people present feel that they had heard wrongly.

"I agree to your request."

"Elder..." The middle-aged man and Zifeng turned and looked at Elder Qingmu in surprise.

Wang Sui and the others also had dazed expressions on their faces, and their minds seemed confused.

Elder Qingmu waved his hand and said, "Just do as this fellow Taoist says. As for the rest, let's not talk about it for now."
