Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 340 Refining the Natal Flying Sword (Part 1)

Previously, Master Heling had told Gu Yuan that he needed to investigate this matter thoroughly. Now, more than three months have passed, and Gu Yuan is curious whether Master Heling has actually found anything out.

Upon hearing this, Master Heling fell silent for a moment before finally saying, "This matter is very likely related to that fellow Youmeng. However, I don't have any evidence yet, but I am 90% certain about it!"

At this point, Master Heling looked at Gu Yuan and said, "As for you, you don't need to do anything for now. With Uncle Kumu here, even if Ancestor Xuanwei comes, he'll have to behave himself. We can talk about it later."

Gu Yuan nodded slowly. The other meaning behind Crane Feather Immortal's words was actually quite simple: he was telling him that it was not appropriate to do anything now, because with Drywood Immortal in charge, it was better to be honest.

When the opportunity arises later, we can take revenge where necessary and settle scores where appropriate.

Moreover, this kind of thing is not easy to do, because Youmeng Zhenren also has powerful backers.

Next, Gu Yuan chatted with Master Heling for a while, then paid his respects to Situ Yan before taking his leave and returning to his previous residence, the small courtyard.

Of course, this is the surface situation.

However, after leaving Yuding Tower, Gu Yuan sensed that someone was following him.

Gu Yuan's heart skipped a beat. He turned his head to look, but found nothing unusual. Even the feeling of being spied on had vanished without a trace.

"Heh...interesting..."

Gu Yuan sneered and decided to continue strolling around the street.

Even a fool could tell that the person secretly following him must be related to that Youmeng Zhenren!

Clearly, Gu Yuan's appearance had also caught the old man's attention.

Before long, that feeling of being spied on returned.

Gu Yuan continued strolling around without making a sound. When he arrived at a crowded place and temporarily escaped the prying eyes, he immediately used the Mirror Flower Water Moon Divine Power to create a clone and send it to his residence.

Gu Yuan quickly concealed his true form, changed his appearance, and rented a temporary cave dwelling at an inn run by the Star River Sword Sect for about half a year before entering the cave.

This cave dwelling is also located in Qiongming Market, and it is situated halfway up a sacred mountain. The scenery is beautiful, with lakes and waterfalls all around, pleasant air, and even a rich spiritual atmosphere.

There are also some formations set up around it, which are controlled by the cave owner.

Standing halfway up the mountain, you can see a small part of the entire Qiongming Market area.

As for the rent, it would cost a full eight thousand spirit stones for six months, which is a very high price for most cultivators.

Eight thousand spirit stones are enough to buy a fairly good magic weapon in some shops.

However, this is nothing. This immortal mountain has been occupied and developed by the Star River Sword Sect. The excellent cultivation environment here alone is worth the price, not to mention the many other benefits. Some important figures don't care about these spirit stones at all as long as they are comfortable living here.

However, for a tycoon like Gu Yuan, saying it's a drop in the ocean is an exaggeration, but saying it's a piece of cake is quite accurate.

When he entered the Crimson Dragon Immortal Palace, he had already killed two Golden Core cultivators, Green Wood True Man and Black Owl, and had accumulated a considerable amount of spirit stones.

After entering the Crimson Dragon Small World, they killed several cultivators, including many Golden Core cultivators, and reaped a great harvest.

Currently, Gu Yuan has no shortage of spirit stones. He could easily produce eight thousand, or even eighty thousand. In fact, the reason Gu Yuan came here was to evade the pursuit of True Person Youmeng.

This guy clearly has ill intentions; he's definitely up to no good.

Although under normal circumstances, no one in Qiongming Market would dare to cause trouble or do anything reckless, Gu Yuan had serious business to attend to right now, busy practicing his flying sword and improving his cultivation, so he didn't have time to deal with this old man.
If this guy keeps investigating and disturbs his proper cultivation, that would be a real mess.

So, just in case, Gu Yuan chose to "disappear without a trace".

Arriving at his new residence, Gu Yuan looked around and admired the surrounding scenery. He was quite satisfied; the environment here was indeed nice and quiet, and he wouldn't be disturbed.

Once the restriction is in place, even a Golden Core cultivator would be helpless.

The key point is that this is the territory of the Star River Sword Sect. Even if people from Medicine King Mountain and Gu God Sect come here, they will have to behave themselves.

Back in the training room, Gu Yuan opened the restriction and began to take out several items.

One of the iron ore stones was about the size of a head, black in color, and inlaid with bright silver, grape-sized, shiny metal spheres.

Each of these metal spheres is round and bright, smooth and flawless, about the size of a pigeon egg, and shimmers with a silvery light. Just one glance at them can cause a slight stinging sensation in the eyes.

If Gu Yuan, with his cultivation level, could have this feeling, it's enough to prove how extraordinary the object before him is.

There are about twenty metal balls on it.

This item is none other than the Heavenly Gang Silver Sand, one of the Nine Divine Metals!
As for the other thing, it was a piece of metal the size of an egg. This piece of metal was golden yellow, neither bright nor dazzling, but shimmering with a thin layer of dim golden light. However, when Gu Yuan saw this thing, his eyes also stung slightly, even more so than when he saw the Heavenly Sand.

When Gu Yuan opened the box and revealed the item, the surface of the metal actually brightened a bit and trembled slightly, as if it possessed a special kind of spirituality.

This substance is the essence of Geng metal, and like the Heavenly Gang Silver Sand, it is also one of the nine divine metals.

Its greatest characteristic is its sharpness, making it suitable for crafting powerful magical artifacts and spiritual treasures such as flying swords and throwing knives.

It is also the most top-grade spiritual material in the world for refining flying swords!

The special characteristic of Heavenly Silver Sand is its hardness, making it extremely difficult to damage. When this substance is mixed into certain magical treasures or spiritual treasures, they become exceptionally hard and difficult to damage.

One is hard and the other is sharp. When the two are combined, they can definitely forge a natal flying sword that will satisfy Gu Yuan!
Then, Gu Yuan took out the Silver Dragon Sword!

The Silver Dragon Sword is three feet and five inches long, with a shiny silver-white body and the sword and hilt being a single, seamless piece.

The blade is thin and sharp, exuding a chilling aura, and the surface of the blade is faintly visible with some fine, scale-like patterns.

Just one glance is enough to feel a fierce and sharp aura emanating from it.

In fact, Gu Yuan doesn't look bad using this silver dragon sword now.

The problem is that the enemies he faces are often Golden Core cultivators, who have already begun to use magical artifacts. If Gu Yuan were to use the Silver Dragon Sword again, he would inevitably be somewhat constrained and affected.

Therefore, it would be better to start refining it now, which could also serve as his natal treasure for advancing to the Golden Core stage.
