Immortality from plundering luck

Chapter 152 Master of Refining, Thousand-Year-Old Deep Sea Purple Mystic Iron
"I am able to achieve what I have today, all thanks to my hard work and practice."

Shi He muttered to himself.

He continued to look at the system panel.

"System, deduce the Flame Demon Sutra."

Shi He's mind moved, and he controlled his luck and infused it into the Flame Demon Sutra.

"Shh!"

The system became blurry at first, then became clear again.

A hint flashed before my eyes.

[You have consumed 10,000 points of luck and deduced the Purple Grade Upper Grade Flame Demon Sutra to the second level]

[Currently available luck: 5,200 points]

It actually takes 10,000 points of luck
Shi He felt a little numb. What was the concept of ten thousand points of luck? It was equivalent to the lives of ten Jade Liquid Realm warriors.

Especially now that he is only at the second level, when he reaches the late Purple Mansion Realm, he will need to consume 20,000 to 30,000 points of luck for each level upgrade.

The headquarters of the Flame Demon Gang, the meeting hall.

Shi He sat upright on a large purple wood carved chair and glanced at everyone in the hall.

Following the last job change, many new faces appeared in the hall.

It was the first time that Shi He had seen some of these people.

But this is normal. The Flame Demon Gang rose too fast, and Shi He rarely stayed at the headquarters. He spent more time fighting outside.

Not only Shi He, but many people in the hall did not know each other.

Of course, this is only temporary. The Yanmo Gang has now completely occupied the nine counties of Xuzhou and will basically not expand on a large scale again in a short period of time. The arrangements for positions such as garrison commanders in various places have also been basically fixed.

All that is needed now is time.

All they need to do is wait for time to pass, and by then, the Flame Demon Gang will be able to completely digest this land and enter a period of rapid growth in strength.

From the change of dynasties to the rise and fall of powerful forces, the laws of this world have always been like this.

For Shi He, as the leader of the Flame Demon Gang, he does not need to know all the top leaders in the gang.

If there are orders, he only needs to instruct a few deputy gang leaders and elders, and they will be able to convey the orders well.

Basically all the high-level officials and garrison commanders from all over the place rushed to this Yanmo Gang meeting.

Shi He glanced at the crowd, then fixed his eyes on a tall and strong man.

The sturdy man was big and strong, nearly two meters tall, carrying a huge axe behind him, looking very imposing.

Noticing Shi He's gaze, the deputy leader Wu Longjiang, who was sitting in the first seat on the lower right, immediately stood up, pointed at the man, and introduced him, "Boss, this man is Wu Kaishan, from Chuzhou. He heard of our Flame Demon Gang and signed up to join it. I think he has good strength and a clear background, so I asked him to come here and wait for your orders."

The burly man Wu Kaishan took a step forward, knelt on one knee, and bowed to Shi He respectfully, saying, "I have heard of the leader's power since I was in Chuzhou, and I have admired you for a long time. This time, I heard that the Flame Demon Gang was recruiting disciples, and I was afraid of missing the opportunity, so I came here to join forces. I hope the leader will take me in."

Shi He smiled and said, "Very good. Since you have reached the fifth level of the Jade Liquid Realm, ordinary positions are not suitable for you. You will be temporarily included in the Wu Pavilion and receive the treatment of a third-level garrison commander."

Wu Kaishan was overjoyed and said repeatedly: "Thank you for your kindness, Gang Leader!"

"Hmm!" Shi He nodded slightly, then looked at someone in the hall.

This man was dressed in a green shirt, had an elegant and gentle temperament, and had an extraordinary appearance.

Feeling Shi He's gaze, the man in green shirt bowed and said respectfully, "I am Wang Shaojun, born in the Wang family of Xuzhou Prefecture City. Nice to meet you, gang leader."

"Very good, very good. I didn't expect that in just a few days, two Jade Liquid Realm warriors appeared in my Flame Demon Gang." Shi He nodded with satisfaction: "You will also be included in the Martial Pavilion like him, and you will be treated as a third-level guardian."

Wang Shaojun was quite happy. Everyone in Xuzhou knew how good the treatment in the Flame Demon Gang was. What's more, the treatment of a third-level garrison commander was only inferior to that of the deputy gang leader.

He immediately knelt on one knee and said loudly: "Thank you for your kindness, boss!"

"Yeah." Shi He nodded slightly.

Three days ago, there were only seven Jade Liquid Realm warriors in the Flame Demon Gang, namely the three Jade Liquid Realm warriors of the Wu family, Lu family head Lu Yunfei, Jiang family head Jiang Kongcheng, Donghe ancestor Chen Kong, and Zhou Boyuan.

And three days later, he once again had two Jade Liquid Realm warriors.

If it continues at this pace, within a few years, the Flame Demon Gang will become the largest force in the entire Dayong territory besides the government.

Seeing the Flame Demon Gang he led growing stronger and stronger, Shi He felt quite gratified.

It feels like watching your own child grow up step by step.

Then, Shi He turned to look at Wu Longjiang and said calmly: "How many people does my Yan Mo Gang have now?"

Wu Longjiang said in a deep voice: "At present, my Flame Demon Gang has a total of 230,000 people, including 30,000 Black Demon Army. We are still 70,000 short of the 300,000 people set by the gang leader. At present, the branches in various places are still recruiting disciples."

"Among these 230,000 people, the vast majority are Mortal Body Realm warriors, there are 267 True Qi Realm warriors, nearly 300, and nine Jade Liquid Realm warriors."

"Very good," Shi He nodded with satisfaction, and then said calmly: "Continue to expand the scale and make sure to quickly recruit the remaining 70,000."

"clear."

After roughly arranging some matters, Shi He dismissed everyone.

He looked at Wu Longjiang, and after a moment's hesitation, he asked, "Do you know where there is a black-leaf willow?"

Shi He suddenly remembered his 'Yiliaomu clone'.

Before he goes to Central Plains, he must create an avatar.

"Black Leaf Willow?" Wu Longjiang pondered for a moment, then said with a little hesitation: "It seems that there is such material in the gang's treasure house. I will go and look for it later."

Although he didn't know why Shi He suddenly needed to look for the black-leaf willow, Wu Longjiang didn't ask any more questions.

He also knew that the black-leaf willow was an excellent material for refining weapons.

Could it be that the gang leader wants to forge some weapon?
Wu Longjiang had some guesses in his mind.

"Well," Shi He suddenly said, "Do you know who is the most outstanding weapon refining master in the whole Xuzhou?"

He thought of the ore he had collected, which he had obtained from the top floor of the An family's Sutra Pavilion last time. If he could refine it into his own Blood Demon Sword, it would definitely greatly improve his combat power. Wu Longjiang became more and more certain of his guess, and hurriedly said, "The most outstanding weapon refining master in the entire Xuzhou is the old master of the Divine Sword Valley outside the north gate of Xuzhou City, Master Ou Yunfeng. Master Ou Yunfeng is the descendant of the ancient master craftsman Ou Yezi, and has a very superb weapon refining technique."

"However, Master Ou has a quirk," Wu Longjiang said with a smile, "He will only make use of the best refining materials. In his words, don't take those junk materials, which would waste his craftsmanship."

"It's normal for talented people to have some quirks." Shi He waved his hand indifferently.

"How about this, you will accompany me to the Divine Sword Valley later," he said after pondering for a moment.

"Do you need me to bring some high-quality refining materials?" Wu Longjiang asked tentatively.

Shi He took out the piece of ore which was completely black with some parts slightly glowing purple.

He suddenly remembered the Guandao Heavenly Eye that he had just obtained, which seemed to have not been used yet. He just didn't know what the function of this piece of ore was, so he could use the Guandao Heavenly Eye to identify it.

Otherwise, his original plan was to take it out and let Wu Longjiang see it. This guy has been in Xuzhou for many years and is the head of the Wu family. He may know the origin of this ore.

There was a faint purple light in Shi He's eyes, and his entire pupil seemed to change from black to dark purple in an instant, and a strange energy spread out from his eyes.

Activate the Heavenly Eye of Observation!
[Thousand-year-old deep-sea purple iron, produced in the depths of the East China Sea, has been through thousands of years and is extremely hard, making it an excellent material for refining equipment]

"Thousand-year-old deep-sea purple iron?"

Shi He was slightly stunned. Is this name so long? However, this name is quite suitable for this ore.

"Deep Sea Purple Iron?"

Seeing the ore in Shi He's hand, Wu Longjiang couldn't help but said in surprise.

"You recognize it?" Shi He was also slightly surprised. He didn't expect that this guy actually knew this thing.

"This is top-notch refining material," Wu Longjiang looked a little excited. "As long as a small amount of deep-sea purple iron is added, it can become a first-class sword. And the gang leader has such a large piece in his hand. Even if he wants to refine a magic sword with deep-sea purple iron as the main body, it is completely possible."

At this point, he said with a smile, "I am sure that if Master Ou saw the deep sea purple iron in the hands of the gang leader, and such a large piece, even if he lacked other auxiliary materials, he would definitely be willing to pay for it out of his own pocket, or even pay the gang leader himself, and would let the gang leader hand over the forging of this deep sea purple iron to him at all costs."

"Is it that exaggerated?" Shi He raised his eyebrows.

He had not expected the appeal of these top-notch refining materials to a top refining master.

Every weapon refining master, who has reached this level, no longer desires external things such as money. His only wish is to be able to forge a magic weapon in his lifetime.

If I could forge a magic weapon, then I would have no regrets in my lifetime.

Even after death, history books will record that in a certain year, a weapon-refining master forged the world's number one magic weapon.

"Of course, I am being conservative." Wu Longjiang said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go." Shi He stood up suddenly, wishing he could get the newly refined sword immediately.

Although the Blood Demon Sword he now possesses is of good quality, due to Shi He's rapid progress in realm, the Blood Demon Sword is already barely able to withstand the infusion of his true Qi.

Moreover, the enemies he now faces are getting stronger and stronger, and the intensity of the battles is increasing.

If the strength of the Blood Ghost Sword is not increased again in time, it will be shattered by him sooner or later.

Shi He attached great importance to the Blood Demon Sword. After all, this sword had accompanied him for several months, and Shi He vaguely felt that the Blood Demon Sword had the potential to cultivate a spirit.

In view of this, Shi He did not intend to exchange it for other swords of better quality, but preferred to use better materials to improve the strength of the Vampire Sword.

"Boss, I have something else to report." Wu Longjiang said hurriedly after seeing Shi He preparing to leave.

"Anything else?" Shi He frowned.

"It's about the task the gang leader gave me last time, to search for Tiewu's whereabouts," Wu Longjiang said, cupping his hands.

"Oh, I almost forgot," Shi He suddenly realized that if Wu Longjiang hadn't said it, he would have really forgotten about Tie Wu.

The main reason is that this guy has too little sense of existence. As a defected disciple of Taiming Tianzong, although no one knows what bad things this guy has done, Taiming Tianzong has specially sent people to search for him. But since a powerful force can do this, this guy must not be a good person.

If that's the case, why is there no news at all when we arrived in Xuzhou?

As a disciple of the upper sect, it would be totally inconsistent with your personality if you didn't kill a few people and cause some trouble.

Shi He was also extremely surprised, but now that he could find this guy's trace, it was naturally good news.

"Have you locked on to this guy's location?" Shi He glanced at Wu Longjiang.

But seeing the other party's serious expression, it was obvious that this matter was not going so smoothly.

Wu Longjiang said solemnly, "In fact, we didn't find any information about Tie Wu at the beginning. Yesterday, the bodies of several disciples in Zhangliu County, Xihe County were found outside the city. Bai Qiushan, the governor of Zhangliu County, launched an investigation and quickly locked on the target."

"Originally, he wanted to send his disciples to arrest the murderer directly. Fortunately, he did some research in advance and knew that Tiewu's strength was beyond his ability to contend with, so he immediately reported the situation."

"In other words, this guy Tiewu is now in Zhangliu County, Xihe County?" Shi He said lightly.

"That's right." Wu Longjiang said in a deep voice: "This guy is currently staying in an inn. The waiter of the inn is the eyes and ears of our Yan Mo Gang. I have asked this brother to keep an eye on Tie Wu's movements at all times and report immediately if there is anything unusual."

"Very good," Shi He nodded slightly and said, "In that case, let's go now. I want to see how capable Tie Wu is to actually be able to defect from the Taiming Tianzong."

"Boss, are we leaving like this?" Wu Longjiang said hesitantly.

"What's the matter? Is there any unexpected change?" Shi He stopped and said expressionlessly.

"That's not the case, but Tie Wu is a disciple of Taiming Tianzong, and his strength is probably not low. Wouldn't it be risky for us to go there like this?" Wu Longjiang hesitated for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said it.

"Haha," Shi He chuckled a few times and said calmly, "Don't worry, it's just a Iron Five, I can suppress it with just a flip of my hand."

As he spoke, an extremely powerful aura suddenly burst out from his body, instantly enveloping the entire hall.

Feeling this surging pressure, Wu Longjiang's heart shuddered.

How come this momentum is even stronger than in the past few days?

"Boss, have you already broken through to the Purple Mansion Realm?" Wu Longjiang looked at Shi He in shock.

Shi He smiled and said calmly, "That's right."

Wu Longjiang was shocked, but he reacted immediately and said respectfully: "With the power of the gang leader, a mere Tiewu will be easily captured."
