Chapter 263: Chapter 242: Refining the Azure Wood Spirit
Heart 2
“That’s great, let’s get started.”
Chen Mobai immediately said happily. Then, with a spirited look, he took out the Green Wood Spirit Heart and sat in the corner of the Elixir Refining Room, starting to absorb and refine this spiritual object.
Qing Nu took a deep breath and approached him with a bright smile.
Yan Bingxuan also silently walked over.
The two women each stood to one side of the young man, who was kneeling and holding Green Wood Spirit Heart, watching as strands of blue-green light, like the fuzz of willow trees, drifted into Chen Mobai’s forehead.
They waited quietly.
What kind of Spirit Eye do you want to cultivate, nephew?”
In the biggest jade and jewellery palace in Red Sandstone City, inside the hall of Qingyu Zhai, a middle-aged man with refined facial features and a mustache chatted with Chen Mobai with a smile.
“Uncle Shi, the thing is, because I’m cultivating the Pure Yang Scroll, I have to stare at flames for a long time, and recently I’ve noticed a decline in my eyesight.”
“Also, I’m about to go into the Treasure Trove. There are many magic artifacts in there, and I want to choose one that suits me. To be honest, of course I hope to choose a Rank-3 item.”
“So I wanted to ask you, as a professional, if there is a Spirit Eye that allows me to stare at flames without strain, and can see through the reality of magic artifacts.”
This middle-aged man was the father of Shi Jingjing, named Shi Qujin, and he was one of the few Rank-3 Treasure Appraisers in Red Sandstone City.
“Generally speaking, Spirit Eyes tend to focus on certain specific functions. For example, the Void Spirit Eye I cultivated is mainly used to perceive the spiritual energy contained within an object. If you are trying to select a magic artifact, you could cultivate it.”
“As for Spirit Eyes related to flames, there are indeed several. The topmost one I can think of is the ‘Zulong Divine Eye Technique’ of the Kunpeng Daoist Institute.”
“Once cultivated, it can control the Great Sun Fire, Dark Moon Fire, and Star Fire. I don’t know whether your Dance Tool Daoist Academy has this collection or not.”
As expected from a professional Foundation Establishment True Cultivator specializing in cultivating Spirit Eyes, Shi Qujin promptly resolved Chen Mobai’s confusion.
“Thank you, uncle. I will ask my teacher when I return to the academy. But just to be on the safe side, besides the Zulong Divine Eye Technique, are there any other options?”
As he spoke, Chen Mobai poured Shi Qujin a full cup of tea.
Besides these two, Shi Jingjing and Cao Yaling were also present. The latter had reached a higher level of the Void Spirit Eye, but since she had just made a breakthrough, her eyes were radiating with spiritual light and she couldn’t control it.
Chen Mobai poured a cup for his two old classmates as well, and they both said thanks instantly.
“The Observing Stars Technique of the Astral Observation Academy, the Heavenly Phenomena Eye Technique of the Nature Studies Academy, the Fiery Eyes Technique of the Pure Yang Academy, and the Heavenly Vision Technique of the Heavenly Book Academy can also suit.”
“You can go to the technique library of the Immortal Sect and read the introductions of these techniques, then compare them. However, the best one is certainly the Zulong Divine Eye Technique.”
“Moreover, if you just want to see the flames directly, cultivating the Void Spirit Eye would be enough as long as you’re not directly gazing at those high grade Heavenly Spiritual Fires.”
Chen Mobai firmly recorded Shi Qujin’s words in his mind.
He had already begun refining the “Clear Eyesight Bamboo Spirit Dew” and did not want to waste the efficacy of the Spiritual Water.
Furthermore, he believed that he would certainly be able to gain a bargain in the Tianhe Realm in the future. Thus, it felt necessary to cultivate the Void Spirit Eye.
As for the Zulong Divine Eye Technique, it sounded too advanced and didn’t suit him, so he decided to leave it out for now.
“Thank you, uncle. This is the Spiritual Wine made in my hometown. You can try it.”
Of course, Chen Mobai didn’t visit empty- handed. But Shi Qujin still politely refused a couple times before reluctantly accepting his gift.
“Nephew, you should come often.”
After Chen Mobai left, Shi Qujin turned to his daughter and disciple and asked them.
“Does your classmate have a girlfriend?”
“He’s had one for a while now, they’ve been dating since high school.”
Shi Jingjing, knowing the implications of her father’s question, preemptively cut off the conversation he was about to start.
“What a pity. Why didn’t any of you hold on to him?”
In response to Shi Qujin’s regret, Shi Jingjing grumbled about Chen Mobai’s romantic past.
“He has two girlfriends! One with a Heavenly Spiritual Root and the other with an Ice Spirit Root…”
“Ah, that’s not good. Polygamy is illegal in the Immortal Sect. You should persuade him more. A great future cannot be destroyed by such a mistake.”
Upon hearing this, Shi Qujin was taken aback.
He really couldn’t see that Chen Mobai was that kind of person!
“But isn’t he not married yet?”
Suddenly, Cao Yaling said something that rendered Shi Qujin and his daughter speechless.
“Disciple, it’s better not to pursue this person.”
After hearing about Chen Mobai’s “romantic history” from his daughter, Shi
Qujin retracted his previous words and advised gently.
“Master, what are you thinking!”
Realizing her previous remark could be easily misunderstood, Cao Yaling rushed to explain.
Meanwhile, Chen Mobai got on a bus intending to go to the apartment rented by Qing Nu.
However, he frowned as soon as he boarded the bus.
He saw someone who shouldn’t be there.
“Long time no see.”
At the back of the bus, Lan Haitian waved at Chen Mobai.
After hesitating for a moment and considering that he was already at the Foundation Establishment stage and a student of the Dance Tool Daoist Academy, he decided to find out what Lan was up to and walked over.
After getting off the bus, Chen Mobai frowned again. However, he quickly put this matter out of his mind and took the elevator up to the apartment.
Kong Feichen, who opened the door, looked at him expressionlessly..
