The Portal of Wonderland

Just as Shi Mu was looking around, a green-skinned steward with short stature and narrow ears came over, saluted him, and asked:

It seems that the distinguished guest is somewhat familiar. I wonder if there is anything I can do for you?

I'm Shi Mu, I came here this time to pay a visit to Master Yongzhu, I wonder if I can pass it on for you. Shi Mu cupped his hands and said with a smile.

If you have nothing important to do...wait a minute, who did you just say you are? the green-skinned steward asked.

I'm Shi Mu. Shi Mu said.

It turned out to be Fellow Daoist Shi. Master Yongzhu once passed down a message. If you come again, you don't need to pass on the message. You can just take him to see him. The green-skinned steward said.

Then let's go now. Shi Mu said, turning around.

Don't worry, honored guest. Master Yongzhu didn't practice refining weapons today. He happened to be in the hall right now. Please follow me upstairs. The green-skinned steward said, then turned around and led Shi Mu up to the third floor.

Through a wooden door, the green-skinned steward said to the inside:

Master Qi, the honored guest Shi Mu is visiting.

Oh? Let him in. A rough voice came from the room.

Shi Mu pushed the door open and entered, and saw a rather large reception room in front of him, a short, stout man was sitting beside a table, looking down at a spiritual weapon in his hand.

Master Yongzhu. Shi Mu cupped his hands and said.

Hahaha... You are not bad, but you have not insulted the old man's wishful iron rod, and you have become a thousand-year-old disciple in advance, not bad! Master Yongzhu raised his head and laughed loudly.

I didn't expect Grandmaster to keep paying attention. Shi Mu said.

I don't have that much time! It's just that you have gained some reputation in the Holy Land with this iron rod. Others know that this rod was made by the old man, but it has given the old man a lot of face. Master Yong Zhu laughed.

I see. Shi Mu murmured.

No wonder I came here this time, not only did I not need a token, but I even skipped a notification.

Let's talk, what's the matter with the old man? Could it be that there is something wrong with the Ruyi Iron Rod? The old man said earlier, the high-grade spiritual weapon refined by the old man is of first-class quality. Master Yong Zhu asked.

This iron rod is very easy to use, there is no problem. This disciple came here to ask the master to upgrade a flying magic weapon for me. Shi Mu said.

Oh? Take it out and have a look. Master Yongzhu asked.

Hearing this, Shi Mu came to the center of the reception room, and with a flash of light in his hand, a blue-winged speeder appeared on the ground out of thin air.

Master Yongzhu stepped forward, walked around the Blue Wing Speeding Vehicle, carefully inspected the parts and engraved runes on it, and reached out his hand to tap on the vehicle body from time to time.

The material used for this Qingyi Speeding Car is quite particular, and the design and runes are carefully selected. Overall, it's not bad. It's just that the grade is too low, and the speed may not be able to keep up with your needs, right? Master Yongzhu He stroked his thick beard and said.

Master Mingjian. When I went out to perform the mission before, the disciple already felt that it was not enough. Shi Mu nodded.

It's not difficult to upgrade this thing, but I don't have any suitable materials on hand at the moment, so you may have to wait a while longer. Master Yongzhu said.

I wonder what materials the master needs? Shi Mu asked.

The main material used in the casting of this blue-winged speeding car is originally a kind of spiritual material called Qingyi wood, so if you want to upgrade it, you'd better use a high-level spiritual material with the same wood attribute. Master Yongzhu said.

After Shi Mu listened, he pondered for a while, a ray of light suddenly lit up in his hand, and a large piece of cyan wood as light as a feather appeared in his hand.

I wonder if this piece of spiritual material is available? Shi Mu asked.

Master Yongzhu's eyes gathered together, and a brilliant light suddenly lit up in his eyes.

Flying Crane Wing Wood? Such a good thing, where did you get it? Master Yongzhu took the piece of sacred wood and exclaimed in surprise.

The disciple got it by accident when he was out on a mission, Shi Mu said.

Okay! With this thing, it's no problem to upgrade your blue wing speed car to a middle-grade spiritual weapon. Master Yongzhu said confidently.

Then there will be Master Lao. I don't know how to collect this fee? Shi Mu asked with his hands clasped.

Master Yongzhu glanced back and forth on the flying crane wing wood, obviously very fond of it, waved his hand nonchalantly, and said:

Just give fifty top-grade spirit stones.

Fifty... Shi Mu was taken aback.

Don't think that the collection of fifty top-grade spirit stones is too small. It's still the old rule that the unused sacred wood belongs to the old man. Master Yongzhu said.

Okay, then it's a deal. Shi Mu said with a smile.

Okay, after one month, come to Bailiantang to pick it up. Master Yongzhu said.

Shi Mu happily agreed, and immediately took his leave.

After he left Tongliufang, he came to Wanfa Pavilion again, and took on several difficult but well-paid tasks in one go, which made all the disciples in the pavilion dumbfounded.

Those missions are all over the entire East Saint Star, and some of them are even far outside the East Saint Star, and the farthest one is even on Qingye Star, one of the four subsidiary planets of Qinglan Holy Land.

Such an arrangement is not aimless, Shi Mu originally planned to travel around while completing the task, hoping to find some natural treasures that can help condense the golden core and break through the heavenly realm.

...

a month later.

When Shi Mu came to a hall behind Bailian Hall under the guidance of the steward, he saw Master Yongzhu drinking tea and waiting for him.

Before Shi Mu could speak, Master Yongzhu stood up and raised one hand. After a flash of light, a green speeding car appeared in front of Shi Mu.

I saw that the speeding car was about three feet long, a little smaller than the previous Qingyi flying car, and its surface was covered with mysterious and indistinguishable golden spirit patterns, and the sides of the body were engraved with patterns in the shape of wings, which looked quite exquisite.

Don't stand still, try it. Master Yongzhu said.

Shi Mu stepped forward according to his words, pressed his hands on the flying body, and slowly released his spiritual power.

Hula!

The golden spirit patterns on the surface of the car body suddenly lit up, and white mist appeared on the surface.

In the process of refining, the old man realized something again, so he erased all the original runes of the speeding car, and re-engraved a new wind spirit rune array and protective restraint, so that it not only greatly increased the speed, but also could resist the chaos of the stars. Erosion. Now this flying car is a real top-grade spiritual weapon. Not only can it travel thousands of miles a day, but it can also travel in the star field like the rumored magic weapon-level giant ship. Of course, its speed is still far inferior. By the way, the old man named it Lingyu Speeding Vehicle. Master Yongzhu said proudly.

Thank you, master! Shi Mu was overjoyed when he heard this.

Originally, I just wanted to improve the grade of the Blue Wing Speeding Vehicle, but I didn't expect that Yongzhu was really unique in the art of refining, and actually refined it into a high-grade spiritual weapon.

In this way, the efficiency of completing tasks by oneself can be greatly increased, and it is possible to travel to and from some extremely remote places in the Eastern Holy Star within a short period of time.

Master, these grooves are... Shi Mu asked with his eyes on the seven grooves arranged in the shape of a colander on the head of the flying car.

Oh, you embed top-quality wind-attribute spirit stones in it, which can increase the speed of the speeding car. If seven of them are inlaid, it can temporarily reach the level of top-quality spiritual weapons, and its speed can be increased by at least three times. Master Yongzhu said.

Master's crafting skills are superb, this time I've troubled you. This is the reward agreed before. Shi Mu said, and handed over a bag of spirit stones.

It's okay, the old man is so dedicated to helping you, it's not for nothing. Master Yongzhu took the Lingshi, put it into the storage ring without looking at it, and said.

Master, it's okay to say. Shi Mu said with a heartbeat.

Hey, don't be nervous. The old man has focused his whole life on the way of refining weapons and has no other requirements. If you have any top-quality spiritual materials such as earth metal essence and unicorn blood crystal in the future, you must remember to keep them for the old man. Purchase at the market price. Of course, if you need to upgrade the casting of spiritual weapons in the future, you can come to the old man. Master Yongzhu said.

Hearing this, Shi Mu smiled wryly in his heart. It seems that the Meteorite Black Iron and Flying Crane Wing Wood he took out earlier misled the other party, causing him to think that he had some special channel to obtain many top-quality spiritual materials.

Master, don't worry, it should be like this. Shi Mu didn't say anything, and nodded in response.

...

Three days later, on an ice field in the extreme north of Dongshengxing.

Shi Mu stood on a low ice hill covered in wind and snow, squinting his eyes to look at the cloudy, snow-covered sky.

He was only wearing a single shirt, but he didn't feel cold at all.

Suddenly, there was a scream in the air.

Then a huge shadow broke through the lead-colored cloud accumulated in the sky, and swooped down from the layers of snow.

I saw a huge snow kite with a long and narrow beak more than three feet long, and its body was tense, shooting down from the sky like a javelin, attacking Shi Mu's head.

The corner of Shi Mu's mouth twitched into a smile, and when he raised his right hand, a cold breath surged out, directly freezing his arm with the ice and snow in the sky, and turning into a huge ice crystal palm in mid-air.

The palm was a full three feet in size, and with just a clasp, the snow kite was tightly held in it.

Before Xueyuan could utter a whine, Shi Mu froze it into a huge ice sculpture.

Shi Mu carefully moved the ice sculpture down from the air, seeing that the eyes of the extreme northern snow kite in the ice sculpture were still rolling, he felt relieved.

The fresh blood of this kind of extreme northern snow kite is an important spiritual material for refining condensed pills. Shi Mu's mission this time is to bring back a living extreme northern snow kite.

Xueyuan's strength is actually not strong at all, it can even be said to be very weak, and it is not difficult to catch it.

But because it can only adapt to the extremely cold environment, once it leaves the extreme arctic ice field, it will die immediately. Therefore, although the reward has been rising again and again, this task has been hanging in Wanfa Pavilion and no one has completed it.

And Shi Mu's most yin power can create an extremely cold environment with a little transformation, so the first task he got from Wanfa Pavilion was this.

Shi Mu took out a special spirit animal bag, and with his spiritual power running, he opened his mouth to close it, and put away the huge ice sculpture.

He waved his hand to sacrifice the Lingyu speeding car, and jumped on it.

A golden light flashed on the surface of the speeding car, and the white mist rolled out, turning into a stream of golden light, flying out of the ice field hills in the blink of an eye, and disappearing into the sky. (To be continued.)
