Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

The spirits of Chongque Mountain are skilled in the arts of cloud and mist magic, and among the various arts of cultivating immortality, their skills in riding clouds and maneuvering boats are considered the best.

The main cultivation path of the Innate Cloud Path is a variant of the Water Path, and it also requires a large number of water-related treasures to supply the disciples.

The opposition from the immortal sects of the North Sea caused the representative of the North Sea Dragon Palace, the Jade Dragon King, to lose face. This was a rare female dragon king. (Cangwu Immortal Cultivation World)
"Yun Xian, don't make trouble out of nothing. We've always divided things this way before, so why not this time?"

"Ah."

Daoist Yunxian sneered.

"Then was then, and the present is now."

"Of the four small world waters that have already been subdued, the dragon race has occupied seventy percent of them. You have made few achievements in the Void Realm, what contributions have you made, and what right do you have to speak of all the waters???"

"Don't you know that in some worlds the waters are more vast and richer than the land? Why do you take so much away as soon as you open your mouth? Chongque Immortal Sect wants 50% of the waters."

Look at those outstretched five fingers.

The Jade Dragon King was furious, but he couldn't find the words to refute it. The Azure Dragon King from the East Sea, however, spoke calmly.

“Yun Xian, if you are not satisfied, we can discuss it. There is no need to insult our dignity. When has my True Dragon Clan ever taken advantage of you? The peace that has lasted for ten thousand years in the world is also due to the suppression of the Dragon Clan.”

"Indeed, the Dragon Clan has taken the lion's share of the waters in the four small worlds. Regardless of whether this new realm can be solidified by the Cangwu Realm, the Dragon Clan of the Four Seas will take 50% of the waters, plus the 20% near the sea."

After he finished speaking, Yunxian Daojun of Chongque remained silent.

It's the default.

"It seems you've monopolized the waters all by your own whims. Have you even consulted Yunmeng Mountain about this?"

"I want 20% of the water areas, and each of you will take 10% from your share. I want 80% of all the swamps and wetlands, and Yunmeng Mountain."

Fairy Huanyin didn't come; the leader was another Daoist from Yunmeng Mountain. They had just reached an understanding in their dispute when they joined in the fight to divide the cake.

Neither Yunxian nor the Dragon Kings were willing to accept this.

Besides them, many other Daoist masters from various immortal sects also began to speak.

The Flaming Mountain representative stated: "Volcanoes and lands belonging to the element of fire in the Five Elements theory all belong to the Flaming Mountain, and the land area also accounts for 20% of the total."

Lei Zeshan retorted angrily, "You son of a bitch, you old devil Yan Guang, what kind of pipe dream are you having? I, Lei Zeshan, want fifty percent of the land area..."

Tianjian Mountain sneered: "Lei Yuan, are you daydreaming too? The sky is divided into nine parts, and Tianjian Mountain wants nine parts. All mountains over a thousand feet in height belong to the geniuses."

Yanxia Mountain was furious: "Stop arguing! What kind of behavior is this? All this nonsense! I want 80% of the land area!"

Jiuli Mountain overturned the table and walked up to the Dao Lord of Yanxia Mountain, shouting angrily.

"What did you say? You want 80%? My Nine Li Mountain has suppressed demonic cultivators for humanity for countless years, and you only give me 20% of the land?!"

Gu Qing: "..."

To be honest, Daojun's lofty image has completely collapsed. It's no different from haggling at a vegetable market, except that his status has changed.

This is the drawback of sentient beings. They are given seven emotions and six desires, and then given great power. Naturally, this will breed a lot of fighting. Spitting is a relatively good result.

Li Daoyang, Lian Chutiangong, and Yue Zhige were also shocked, but gradually became numb.

Tian Yunzi, who was high above everyone and was respectfully addressed as a senior, did not participate and simply waited quietly for the result.

Gu Zhixuan was the same, lying on the table playing with the jade wine cup.

Gu Qing asked quietly.

"Third Ancestor, when will this discussion reach a conclusion?"

"Not urgent."

“These people haven’t seen each other for many years, and they can spend three or four days just hurling insults at each other. When they actually start discussing and bickering, it takes even longer. Generally, they need to exchange interests to reach a consensus.”

Gu Qing: "..."

What a waste of life, I thought to myself.

With nothing else to do, Gu Qing simply sat down cross-legged and continued to study the supernatural arts, mainly the [Five Elements Spirit Refining Technique], which was advanced from the secret method of refining fire essence.

It can collect all the energy in the world and transform it into its essence, which is then under Gu Qing's control.

This is the main mining technique he will use when he goes to other worlds later, and it will always be beneficial to study it more. The Yin and Yang energies generated by the opposition of water and fire, although they are the lowest level of Yin and Yang opposition, can still be used to cultivate the profound apertures. If there is enough of them, everything will be fine.

This pre-event wrangling lasted for a full seven days.

Before they even saw the New Territories and before these first batch of candidates sent back intelligence, any division of labor involved an element of gambling, since no one could be certain of the situation in the New Territories.

Is it more land or more ocean, or is it more expansive due to special terrain?

Everyone's gambling.

Ultimately, after Gu Zhixuan got involved, he secured 24% of the land area for Baiyue Mountain, a figure that was neither too much nor too little.

The initial share agreed upon by Chongque and the Four Seas Dragon Clan was a blatant lie. With so many forces to share, how could they possibly allocate a quarter directly to you? Naturally, the share was drastically reduced.

Overall, it's fairly even. The four dragon clans' demand for 50% of the water area isn't excessive, considering they are four dragon palace forces, and should be on par with four immortal sect forces.

In reality, they still received the benefits according to the standard, but they exchanged them for benefits from other sources.

After reaching a preliminary agreement.

This ridiculous Kunlun Dharma Assembly has come to a temporary end. The final allocation will be determined when the second batch of candidates enters, which will be no longer Gu Qing's concern.

In short, those who participated in the Dharma assembly were all selected for the first batch. They will be notified when the time comes, tentatively scheduled for three years later.

After Gu Qing and his group of five returned to the Void Palace, which belonged to Baiyue Mountain.

He went into seclusion.

Besides last-minute cramming, it's also about dealing with the legacy of the Azure Demon Lord.

The Void Palace of Baiyue, the Secluded Meditation Chamber.

Gu Qing took out Qing Mojun's spatial ring and began to take stock of it one by one.

"One million two hundred thousand spirit stones, twenty thousand spirit crystals."

"A number of spiritual medicines, pills, spiritual gold... a pile of daily necessities, as well as a large number of low-end spiritual artifacts, talismans, and array flags."

Most of them were items being sold off in bulk.

Aside from the mountain of demonic cultivation techniques and secret arts, the only thing truly useful to Gu Qing was the Sacred Flame of Life, a top-tier sixth-grade wood-attribute spiritual flame.

It can not only enhance his fire element law, but also greatly improve his wood element domain, making it an excellent fusion fire seed for refining wood spirit beads.

In this way, he has hope for fire, metal, and wood among the five elements. He only needs water and earth to reach the standard for cultivating the Five Elements Domain, which is a principle that only sixth-rank high-level cultivators need to study.

With preparations completed to this extent, a smooth journey ahead is already foreseeable.

The rest is just panning for gold in the soil.

Sure enough, there were a few treasures that Gu Qing took a fancy to.

"The Void Talisman Treasure - Void Heaven Magic Talisman is a perfect match for the Eight-Step Void Boots. If the talisman can be completely peeled off and inserted into the boots, it may be able to be upgraded to a high-grade magic treasure in one fell swoop."

"Sixth Rank, Supreme Level, Green Gold Spirit, nurture it in a Gold and Stone Treasure Bottle for now."

"The ancient inheritance [Nine Elements Barrier - Restriction Chapter] is a good thing, worth learning."

Barrier spells are a variant of formations. They can be seen as spells within the formation system. They do not require any objects and are cast purely with the cultivator's magical power. They tend to be more about confinement, defense, and spatial manipulation, and their power is weaker than traditional formations.

However, its potential is not low at all. Barrier techniques are considered an early form of formation, and they were created by the five ancestors of the human race.

Weapons, talismans, formations, elixirs, and swords—each of the Five Ancestors possessed a unique skill, creating the five most popular crafts in Cangwu.

【Nine Elements Barrier - Restriction Chapter】This can enrich Gu Qing's methods. Restrictions can also be used in weapon refining. This thing is almost omnipotent and worth learning.

The legacy of the Azure Demon Lord also includes some treasures worth admiring.

After Gu Qing finished taking stock, he began to multitask, cultivating while simultaneously erasing the spirituality of the Holy Flame of Life and devouring the laws within it, while also refining the Wood Spirit Pearl.

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

It's time to depart! (End of Chapter)
