Chapter 678: Refining Equipment

kily, there are no ferocious beasts on the mountain where Qianhutou Village is located. The village arranges manpower day and night to patrol the river below the mountain by boat, and the back mountai...For cultivators, as long as there is enough spiritual energy, everything is not a problem.

The city on the Dogo Island may appear simple and rough at first glance, but in reality, there are quite a number of ordinary people and low-ranking cultivators living there, creating a flourishing scene.

In the Sea of Demons, there aren't many places like Doulou Island that remain so peaceful. Surrounded by abundant demonic beast resources, not only have the original inhabitants on the island thrived, but many cultivators from other regions also risk their lives to travel across the sea to reach it.

Qin Sang followed Ran Luo and the others off the boat. Under Ran Luo's guidance, they easily found the location of the cave dwelling.

Zhou Lao chose his cave abode at the edge of the city, near a bald hill. The choice of this location was deliberate.

This mountain is called Red Stone Mountain. Unlike other stone mountains, the stones on this mountain have a faint reddish hue. This is because there is an underground magma vein in the mountain. The island master has carved out many fire rooms on the mountain. It is an excellent place for both refining weapons and alchemy.

Rǎn Luó and Zōu Lǎo were organizing manpower, no one disturbed Qin Sang's quiet cultivation.

It wasn't until ten days later that Ranluo came to visit.

Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!

"Daozhang, are you rested If you have nothing to do, shall we begin refining the magic weapons now The people left behind by our guild have acquired many demon corpses during this time, piling them up in several warehouses. Old Zou and the alchemists from the guild have sorted the demon corpses. They have picked out those suitable for refining spirit pills like the Shayao Pill and Xuegu Pill, leaving more than half. We can only ask Daozhang to help us with the rest. Everything is ready on Hongshi Mountain..."

Qin Sang had already prepared himself and readily said, “Please lead the way, Daoist Ran.”

On Mount Duiyan, when refining artifacts, Redstone Mountain is a must-visit. Especially when refining large quantities of artifacts and pills, even cultivators' fire cannot sustain such heavy consumption.

Qin Sang was reluctant to expose the power of the Nine Nether Demon Fire, and even more so needed earth fire to conceal it.

Renting a room on the mountain is expensive, all paid for by the Qiong Yu Chamber of Commerce. Of course, he wouldn't help the chamber save money.

The two walked side by side and soon arrived at Hongshi Mountain.

Upon ascending Mount Hongshi, one immediately feels the intense heat of the earth fire permeating the surrounding air. Ordinary people would likely find it impossible to withstand for long and would surely perish from dehydration.

Ran Luo, leading Qin Sang through a winding path, arrived at a cliff face halfway up the mountain.

Under a stone wall with its face covered, an opening had been carved out. Several people were now standing in front of the opening, waiting.

Mr. Zou was also among them.

Behind Elder Zou stood two people. One was a kindly old man with white eyebrows and a kind smile. He saw Qin Sang and Ran Luo, and proactively nodded politely at them.

The other was a thin young man with a tense face and no expression. Qin Sang keenly sensed that when this person looked at him, there was hostility in his eyes.

Qin Sang's heart moved, remembering the identities of these two people.

Before, I heard from Ran Luo that the white-bearded old man was Chief Alchemist recruited by Zou Lao, and the thin young man was a blacksmith.

"You're blocking the way."

Qin Sang thought to himself, but he didn't feel anything. He also didn't care about the hostility of the gaunt young man.

Alchemy is also about strength. If one's skills are inferior, there's nothing to say. However, if one's mastery of alchemy surpasses that of the thin young man, the title of Chief Alchemist naturally belongs to them.

"The Taoist priest has arrived," Old Zou led the people forward and said aside, "Let me introduce you. Lao Jia is an old friend of mine, originally planning to retire peacefully, but I pulled him out to help. This is Dao You Zhuo, from the renowned Jian Ding Men. He's very famous throughout the East China Sea."

Qin Sang bowed and said, "My name is Qingfeng. I've met you two fellow Daoists."

He had never heard of the Jian Ding Men, guessing it was a sect famous for refining weapons from Canglang Sea.

The young man surnamed Zhuo remained calm and composed, returning Qin Sang's greeting with a curious inquiry: "I wonder which sect Daoist Qingfeng hails from Both Old Zou and Manager Ran speak highly of you, claiming you possess unique insights in the art of refining artifacts. Perhaps your sect has some connection to our Jian Ding Sect"

“As a wandering cultivator, I stumbled upon a method of refining artifacts by chance. It's unlikely to be related to your sect in any way...”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Qin Sang laughed it off, and the young man surnamed Zhuo didn't pester him any further.

Lao Zou took out a small cloth bag and handed it to Qin Sang, “Daoist Master, please take a look. The spiritual materials and monster corpses in this bag can be used to refine how many magic weapons”

Qin Sang's divine sense swept over, discovering that the contents of the mustard seed pouch were incredibly rich. Besides a portion of spiritual materials, there were many beast bones and hides, including even a complete spine that seemed to be the bone of a Jiao dragon.

After carefully inspecting everything, Qin Sang pondered for a moment before saying, "With these spirit materials, this poor Dao should be able to refine five top-grade magic artifacts. As for low-grade magic artifacts, it's hard to say. It depends on how much spirit material is left in the end."

"Five"

Zou Lao and Jia Lao looked at each other, their eyes filled with surprise.

Please note: I only translated the content within the tags. I left the HTML tags as they were.

The lean young man was taken aback, his face filled with disbelief. He had only dared to use these materials to refine three top-grade magic weapons at most, guaranteeing a success rate. He couldn't help but exclaim: "With just these spiritual materials, can you really refine five top-grade magic weapons Aren't you exaggerating"

Qin Sang said confidently, "Fellow Daoists, please wait a few days. Once I have finished refining it, you will know."

Lao Zou clapped his hands and said, "Good, the Fire Room has already been prepared for the Taoist Priest. During this time, no one will disturb the Taoist Priest. If the Taoist Priest needs anything, just instruct the people below to do it. Lao Zou will wait for good news."

Then, a guard walked out from inside. Qin Sang bid farewell to the crowd and followed the guard into the cave dwelling. He casually picked an excellent fire room.

As Zou Lao watched Qin Sang enter the cave, he smiled slightly and turned to Ran Luo: "Master Qingfeng is able to refine five top-grade magic weapons. This level of skill is rare even in the entire Dongji League. It's a pity that he doesn't refine magic treasures, but this is also very rare. We managed to recruit him, Ran Manager deserves great credit."

"Before, Daoist Zhu told Jia that he only dared to guarantee refining three top-grade magic weapons. Daoist Qingfeng opened his mouth and said five, and his tone was extremely confident, it shouldn't be an empty boast. Indeed, congratulations to Daoist Zou for recruiting such talent."

Old Jia nodded in agreement.

The gaunt young man remained silent. If this person could truly deliver on their promises, he would admit defeat and have no further complaints.

At this moment, the middle-aged man who had been silent and cold-eyed stepped forward, his voice deep: “Elder Zou, according to Manager Ran, this person has been wearing a cloak since arriving from the Divine Witch Continent, never revealing their true face. Could it be that they committed something in the Inner Sea If we don't find out their identity, I'm afraid it will implicate us”

Lao Zou shook his head and said, "We only invited Qingfeng Daochang to be an overseas guest. Even if he committed a huge offense in the Inland Sea, it has nothing to do with us. There's no need to worry. In a few days, after Qingfeng Daochang leaves the customs, he will formally take on his position as guest. Then, I will go to other islands to check on the business of the Chamber of Commerce. The affairs of Duiyan Island have been sorted out, and from now on, Lao Jia will be in charge of internal affairs here, while Ran will be responsible for external affairs. Please, fellow Daoists, assist."

Everyone readily agreed.
