The Devil's Tribulation

Chapter 263 Master Feng

The Yu Lei Sect's once-in-a-decade competition officially ended. Some people got what they wanted, but more people got nothing, or even lost something. This is the case every time. Shangguan Yun announced the top ten rankings of this session on the rostrum and gave out rewards one by one to encourage them. Since then, the ranking of the disciples has been reshuffled. No one would have thought that the first place was taken by a young cultivator in the foundation-building period. The original first place, Yun Feiyang, ranked second, and the original fifth place, Yan Qingyun, ranked third. Jian Jian was injured by Pan Chengfeng in the eighth game, and could not play the remaining games, so he was directly ranked sixth.

A few days later, Pan Chengfeng came to the weapon refining hall, ready to find Master Feng, the weapon refining master, to refine a spiritual treasure and repair the small bell. When he arrived outside Master Feng's studio, Pan Chengfeng was stopped, saying that Master Feng was refining a treasure and was not allowed to be disturbed. Pan Chengfeng waited for a long time but did not see Master Feng come out, so he stepped forward and asked: "Brother, when can Master Feng come out? I can't wait forever, right?" The gatekeeper said: "I don't know, Master Feng sometimes doesn't come out for several months, what do you want?"

After Pan Chengfeng explained, the gatekeeper disciple suddenly realized, "You are the number one Pan Chengfeng?" Pan Chengfeng bowed and said, "It is me. Please inform him, brother." He stuffed a storage bag into the man's pocket. The disciple glanced at it and was secretly surprised, "This guy actually gave five thousand!" The disciple weighed the storage bag and said, "Okay, I'll inform him. But whether Master Feng sees him or not is none of my business." Pan Chengfeng hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you, brother."

Looking at the gatekeeper disciple leaving, Pan Chengfeng thought to himself: "The seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, the Yu Lei Sect seems to be corrupt. You can't see anyone without paying." After a while, the disciple came back and said with a smile: "Master Feng is waiting for you inside, go in~" Pan Chengfeng bowed and walked into Master Feng's studio. A wave of heat hit him, and Pan Chengfeng was startled in his heart, and hurriedly used his magic power to resist. Only then did he have time to observe the room.

The room was about a thousand square meters, with more than a dozen large shelves on which various utensils were placed. In the middle of the room was a large furnace with a flame burning underneath. A person was sitting cross-legged next to the furnace. At this moment, Pan Chengfeng heard the voice of an old man: "The black gold essence will be refined in a quarter of an hour, Junior Brother Pan, please wait." Pan Chengfeng hurriedly bowed and said: "Disciple Pan Chengfeng, sorry to bother you, uncle." After the ceremony, Pan Chengfeng sat cross-legged on the spot, watching a piece of black gold metal in the furnace slowly turn into liquid, and then, under the guidance of Master Feng, flowed into a mold. Until the last drop of liquid flowed into the mold, the person next to the furnace turned around and said: "Junior Brother, you want to find me to refine a spiritual treasure, right?"

Pan Chengfeng quickly stood up and saluted, saying, "I was lucky enough to win the first place in the ranking competition this time. The sect rewarded me with a magic treasure made by my uncle. I am about to go into seclusion, so I hurried to find my uncle. I am sorry to bother him." Pan Chengfeng secretly observed Uncle Feng. He looked like an ordinary skinny old man with messy clothes. He thought to himself, "It seems that all weapon refiners look like this. Master Zhuge from Wanbao Pavilion looks like this too." Master Feng snorted coldly and said, "Shangguan Yun only knows how to take on jobs for me! Why doesn't he let Yu Shuren make it! Forget it. Since it is the sect's business, I will naturally not refuse. What kind of magic treasure do you want to make?"

Pan Chengfeng said excitedly: "Thank you, Uncle Feng. I don't want to refine any spiritual treasures, but I have a spiritual weapon boxing glove and a small bell of medium-grade spiritual treasure that need to be repaired." Master Feng said in surprise: "You don't want the spiritual treasure I just refined? Repairing is just a small matter." Pan Chengfeng said in surprise: "Uncle can help me repair the treasure and refine a new spiritual treasure?" Master Feng stood up, walked to the coffee table and sat down, and asked: "Can you make tea?" Pan Chengfeng immediately ran over, and sat down without Master Feng's greeting, and said: "I am the best at making tea, Uncle wait, it will be ready soon."

Pan Chengfeng worked for a while, and soon, a pot of fragrant spiritual tea was brewed. Master Feng smiled and said, "You are really good at brewing spiritual tea, and your technique is quite exquisite." Pan Chengfeng smiled and said, "My nephew has a friend who likes to study the tea ceremony, so my nephew has learned some from him. I am sorry to make you laugh." Uncle Feng took the teacup and took a sip, then touched his beard, which was only a few hairs left, and said, "Not bad, I didn't waste my fragrance." Pan Chengfeng secretly observed Uncle Feng and felt that this uncle was easy to talk to, so he tried to ask, "Uncle, can you help me repair the treasure?"

Uncle Feng did not answer Pan Chengfeng's question, but asked: "Just now I noticed that you were observing the black gold essence in the furnace. Are you interested in refining equipment?" Pan Chengfeng was shocked and thought to himself: "Just now I used my spiritual sense to observe unconsciously. The combined cultivators can really sense spiritual sense." Pan Chengfeng hurriedly said: "My nephew just did it unintentionally. Please forgive me, uncle." Uncle Feng waved his hand and said: "I don't mean to blame you. I just noticed that your mental power is very strong and special, so I asked this question."

Pan Chengfeng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "My nephew is indeed interested in refining equipment. He plans to study it after he reaches the golden elixir stage." Master Feng smiled and said, "You are just building your foundation now, so you should not be distracted by other things. If you want to repair any treasure, please bring it out for me to see." Pan Chengfeng was overjoyed and hurriedly took out the boxing gloves and the small bell, saying, "These are the two items, uncle, please have a look." The moment he saw the boxing gloves, Uncle Feng's breathing became rapid, and he hurriedly picked up the gloves to check them out, muttering to himself as he looked at them, "I didn't expect that it was actually an integrated refining technique! This refining technique was lost more than 100,000 years ago!"

Seeing that Master Feng actually paid so much attention to the boxing gloves and ignored the small bell, Pan Chengfeng asked hurriedly, "Uncle Master, this small bell..." Master Feng said impatiently, "What a rubbish craftsmanship, you can tell at a glance that it was made by that rubbish Yu Shuren!" Pan Chengfeng was shocked and thought to himself, "How dare you scold Yu Shuren? Isn't Yu Shuren the master of the Equipment Refining Hall?" Master Feng ignored Pan Chengfeng and stroked the boxing gloves for a long time. After a while, he said, "So that's how it is." After a while, he said, "How did you do it? It's a pity that I can't have a long talk with this master."

Pan Chengfeng waited for a full hour before Master Feng retracted his gaze and looked at Pan Chengfeng and asked, "Where did you get this boxing glove?" Pan Chengfeng did not hide it and said directly, "This boxing glove was given to me by a friend of mine. He got it from the cave of an ancient cultivator." Master Feng asked excitedly, "Is there any record of refining equipment in that cave?" Pan Chengfeng shook his head and said, "No, it was the cave of a combined cultivator who failed in his attempt to reach the Mahayana stage. In addition to some spiritual medicines, there was only a formation diagram and exercises."

Master Feng said disappointedly, "Alas, I don't have this opportunity. I can help you repair this boxing glove, and even upgrade it to the level of a mid-grade spiritual treasure. I can also refine this small bell again and upgrade it to a high-grade spiritual treasure." Pan Chengfeng was overjoyed and said excitedly, "Uncle Master can really help me improve the quality of the treasure?" Master Feng smiled and said, "This small bell is so crudely made that it uses high-quality materials to refine low-quality treasures! Only a waste like Yu Shuren can do it. It's a pity to waste such good materials. As for the boxing glove, I need to study it for a while. Are you willing to leave the boxing glove with me first? I can help you refine a high-grade spiritual treasure. You can choose the type of spiritual treasure yourself."

Pan Chengfeng stroked his chin and thought for a while, then asked, "Of course I can, but how long will Uncle Master need to study it?" Master Feng looked at the boxing gloves and said, "Three years is enough!" Pan Chengfeng thought to himself, "I have been under house arrest for five years, and I can't go out anyway, so I can't use the boxing gloves for the time being. Uncle Master Feng is a good person, so it's okay to lend him the boxing gloves for a few years." Pan Chengfeng said, "Okay, then leave the boxing gloves with Uncle Master first. My nephew may need four or five years of seclusion, and I can come to Uncle Master to get them after I come out. As for this small bell, it is for my nephew's Taoist partner. My nephew's Taoist partner practices a fire-attributed technique..." Pan Chengfeng introduced Qian'er's technique and characteristics, and Master Feng nodded and said, "I know, and I will definitely make her satisfied, don't worry."

Pan Chengfeng bowed his hands in thanks, and Uncle Feng smiled and said, "Okay, just leave this to me, don't worry. Have you thought about what spiritual treasure you want to refine?" Pan Chengfeng had already thought about it, and excitedly said, "Uncle, can you help me refine a piece of armor?" Uncle Feng said, "Of course. A top-grade spiritual treasure armor is not a big deal. You can come and get it when you come out of retreat." Pan Chengfeng bowed his hands in thanks, and just turned around, he came back again, a little embarrassed and said, "Uncle, that spiritual tea..." Master Feng's mouth twitched, and said, "What? My nephew is addicted to my spiritual tea?" Pan Chengfeng hurriedly said, "My nephew has a special liking for tea. He drank Uncle's spiritual tea just now, and other spiritual teas have no taste. But I will never take Uncle's spiritual tea for nothing. I'll exchange it for wine!"

As Pan Chengfeng spoke, he took out five jars of peach blossom wine. Master Feng sniffed and said, "What a good wine! Let me have a taste~" Pan Chengfeng opened the stopper of the jar, and a scent of wine immediately floated out. He poured out a cup and handed it to Master Feng. Master Feng couldn't wait to taste it, closed his eyes and felt it for a long time and said, "What a good wine, how is this wine brewed, how can it be so clear, and the wine is rich~" Pan Chengfeng smiled and said, "This is brewed by my nephew's family. If you like it, I can bring you some from time to time." Master Feng threw a bag of tea leaves to Pan Chengfeng and said, "Keep your word and bring me wine from time to time." Pan Chengfeng caught the tea leaves and thought to himself, "Wow! This must be ten kilograms! Those who refine equipment and elixirs are really rich~"

After leaving the weapon refining hall, Pan Chengfeng hummed a little tune and came to Qiu Xiaotian's cave. This pair of confined master and disciple are now famous in the Thunder Sect. No, Qiu Xiaotian was famous before, and Pan Chengfeng's fame spread in the past few days. Everyone knows that among the direct disciples, there is a little demon in the foundation-building period, and his foundation-building cultivation has defeated Yun Feiyang, who was originally ranked first.

Pan Chengfeng hummed a little tune and went straight into Qiu Xiaotian's cave without saying hello. Seeing Qiu Xiaotian meditating with his eyes closed, Pan Chengfeng found a cushion and sat down and said, "Don't pretend, where is my share?" Qiu Xiaotian opened his eyes and said, "You are in a good mood. It seems that you had a good chat with Junior Brother Feng~" Pan Chengfeng smiled and said, "Master Feng is a very nice person. He helped me upgrade my treasures for free and also refined a top-grade spiritual armor for me. Unlike someone, the promised apprentice gift has not yet appeared~"

Qiu Xiaotian's face turned red, and he said angrily: "Bullshit! If it weren't for my face, Junior Brother Feng would be so kind to you? Dream on!" Pan Chengfeng scratched his ears and said: "Just because you are loud, you are right? How many crystal beads is your face worth in the Yu Lei Sect? Don't change the subject, where is my share? Take it out quickly~" Qiu Xiaotian sighed: "What a sin this seat has done, I actually accepted a disciple like you, and I don't know how to be considerate of my master."

Pan Chengfeng glanced at Qiu Xiaotian's sad face and said, "Why should I sympathize with you? You won a lot this time, so why not give me some?" Qiu Xiaotian said, "Because of you, I was confined for fifty years! Do you know how much trouble I have been delayed?" Pan Chengfeng said lazily, "It's just right, so you don't have to cause trouble everywhere and have the sect clean up your mess. No matter what you say today, I can't lose any of my half-finished crystal beads!"

Qiu Xiaotian sighed and said, "Forget it, take it!" With a whoosh, a storage ring flew towards Pan Chengfeng. Pan Chengfeng stretched out his hand to catch it, and jumped up directly, screaming, "Five hundred thousand top-grade crystal beads! Old man, how much did you bet with them?!" Qiu Xiaotian said angrily, "Take it and get out! Don't come out before you form a pill!" Pan Chengfeng happily put away the storage ring and bowed, saying, "I still have things to do. Master, I don't understand a few things about the Thunder Dragon Technique and Thunderbolt. Please teach me."

Pan Chengfeng left the cave in a hurry. Qiu Xiaotian secretly rejoiced and said, "You little bastard who has never seen the world! You want to fight with me? You didn't even know you drank my bath water!" I wonder how Pan Chengfeng would react if he knew that there were 500,000 top-grade crystal beads, let alone half of them.
