C8 Ruyi furnace
Even though he had already been in the Beast City for more than half a year, Bai Zhenyun had yet to carefully observe this city.
He looked at the booths, inns, weapon stores, and herb shops on both sides of the street that were lined with trees. In the midst of the crowd, Bai Zhenyun could do whatever he wanted. From time to time, mercenaries wearing black robes would pass by, their bodies embroidered with one or two golden stars.
Arriving at Shinto camp, Feng Ji, Zhou Ming and the rest were cultivating. When they saw Bai Zhenyun return, they all went up to greet him.
Bai Zhenyun said to Feng Ji: "I met Li Qingfeng, you did very well."
Feng Ji laughed: There, big brother has done a good job. Right now, the other battalions are all envious of us. It was suggested that other battalions should follow our example, and others asked to be transferred to our battalion. Our brothers in the battalion are even more grateful to our eldest brother. "
Bai Zhenyun was startled: "What?"
And then he laughed, "What they want is beautiful, it took a lot of effort to get them together. Don't tell me you want to try again? Even if you are willing, I won't agree."
Feng Ji thought for a moment and did not say a word. Zhou Ming laughed: "That's right, it's just a pity, we can't go out together with a hundred brothers, that's really interesting."
Bai Zhenyun said: "Everyone, train well. You have to spend a lot of time to nurture your troops. Be ready to serve the Patriarch at any time. Feng Ji and Zhou Ming will follow me to Mercenary Guild, the rest can leave. "
After everyone left, Bai Zhenyun led the two of them into the hall, and said worriedly: "Big brother, is something wrong?"
Zhou Ming was startled: "What's wrong?"
Bai Zhenyun said: "Nothing will happen temporarily, are you familiar with the Beast City?"
Feng Ji replied, "We are familiar with each other, Zhou Ming and I grew up here."
Bai Zhenyun asked: "Do you guys know where in the city there are materials to make cauldrons?"
Zhou Ming looked at Feng Ji and replied: "I know of a place where the boss has followed his family since young to manage. He knows all about the raw materials."
Bai Zhenyun nodded his head: "I met a group of mercenaries along the way. They were wearing black robes with two golden stars embroidered on the top, are you guys there too?"
Feng Ji answered: "Many of the cultivators are mercenaries who complete missions in exchange for rewards. Second brother and I want to advance to the middle stage of ghost immortal. After we go to the assessment, we will directly become two star mercenaries. "
Zhou Ming's face flushed red: I'm holding you back.
Bai Zhenyun was overjoyed: "Feng Ji broke through?"
Feng Ji replied: "I just broke through a few days ago. It's all thanks to big brother's help that I broke through so quickly."
Bai Zhenyun laughed: "My brother, you are welcome. I want to buy some materials and also participate in the mercenary group."
Zhou Ming asked: "Has big brother levelled up yet?"
Bai Zhenyun nodded his head: "I just arrived at the high level ghost immortal, but I do not want to attract attention, I will still be like you two, a two star mercenary soldier."
Zhou Ming asked with doubt: "Big Brother doesn't want to be a commander anymore? You are the first one to break through in the ten new recruitment camps. "
Feng Ji remained silent. Then Bai Zhenyun said: "We're temporarily not competing for the commander's position. We'll see what happens next."
Feng Ji replied: "Okay, the three of us will join the mercenaries."
Zhou Ming said: "Alright, I will use all of my power."
The three of them first came to a remote grocery store. Zhou Ming said: "Big Brother, this is the place." Bai Zhenyun jumped down from the Goblin Lion's Roar, and walked in. A middle-aged shop owner hurried over: "Greetings Lord Commander, what orders do you have?"
Looking at his identity plate, Bai Zhenyun smiled and said: "I have a friend who wants to create a cauldron for refining pills. I wonder if you have any good ingredients here?"
The shop owner's eyes lit up, "Commander, you really asked the right person. I have been learning from the elders since I was young, and am familiar with all kinds of materials." If you want to talk about the best materials to forge a cauldron, it would be Heaven Furnace Stone. "
Bai Zhenyun said: "I have heard of the Heavenly Stove Stone. Although it is expensive, but you can always get it. But, why haven't I heard of anyone successfully crafting a good furnace?"
The shop owner laughed, and said complacently: "Sir, do you know what a good cauldron is? In fact, many people kept it a secret. The truly good cauldron is the Ruyi Furnace. If you want to create one, there is a way. "
Bai Zhenyun was startled: "What method?"
The shop owner said softly, "Actually, a cauldron is a treasure. After making an ordinary cauldron, you can use a Heaven Stove Stone to level up and eventually refine a Heaven Defying Pill if you raise it to the Ru Yi Cauldron. Many people thought that they had failed when they built a substandard cauldron, but in reality, they did not. A cauldron is a magical equipment. Only after generations of great families and clans have passed down their legacy can a Ruyi Furnace be created. "
Bai Zhenyun suddenly said: "So it's like that, but this method, even if you know about it, many people are still unable to create the Ruyi Furnace. A single Heavenly Cauldron Stone is already hard to come by, and furthermore, you have put in so much money. "
The shop owner smiled awkwardly, "Sir, you are very perceptive. That is indeed the case. However, this was better than nothing. He had to rebuild it. I have three pieces of Heavenly Stones, each with ten mid-grade ghost immortal core, or a million gold coins, what do you think? "
Bai Zhenyun asked: "Can the price still be low?"
The shop owner laughed bitterly: "I am familiar with Feng Ji, Zhou Ming and I bought it as well. I didn't say much. This is already the lowest price. "
Bai Zhenyun nodded his head: "Alright, I will take all three of them." After saying that, he took out thirty mid-grade crystal cores and handed it over.
Receiving the Heaven Stones, Bai Zhenyun said: "If there are more, leave them all for me, I'll take as much as you have."
The shop owner was ecstatic. "Yes, my lord. If you need any other materials, I'll help you leave them all behind."
Bai Zhenyun laughed: "Wait till I ask my friend, I will tell you."
After exiting the grocery store, Zhou Ming sighed: "The Heaven Furnace Stone is too precious. For normal cultivators, it would be difficult to obtain even one mid-grade crystal core. Besides, it was already used for cultivation. Who would be willing to buy it? What if we were to create a substandard cauldron. "
Feng Ji took a glance at Bai Zhenyun: "Big Brother, you have so many crystal cores, did you really obtain them all from the primeval forest?"
Bai Zhenyun nodded his head: "Yes, I have killed a lot this time. After a while, you all can go too."
Feng Ji laughed bitterly: "We would need at least one Psychic magical equipment, or top-grade treasures, and it's even Zhou Ming and I who have joined hands."
Zhou Ming laughed: "Second brother is really stupid, with brother's free crystal core, what are you thinking about so much? Right now, we just need to focus on cultivation."
The three of them laughed loudly, and Bai Zhenyun laughed: "If I were Zhou Ming, I would also do the same. Right, where is Mercenary Guild?"
Zhou Ming replied: "In the center of the city, it's the most bustling place. He really didn't know what kind of organization this was. It covered the entire continent and was located in every city. It's not like the past. There are thirty to forty great clans on the continent, and even more so, countless small clans. How did they manage to take root in every city? "
Feng Ji laughed and said, "Of course it's because of the relationship with the Lei, Jing and Ke Clans. They are the strongest and the other families would have to give some face. Moreover, who in the Mercenary Guild doesn't need it? "
Bai Zhenyun nodded his head and replied, "That's right, let alone the clan, there are a lot of people who need Mercenary Guild. "There are a lot of things that a mercenary can best deal with."
Arriving at the center of the Beast City, just as Zhou Ming had said, not only was the Mercenary Guild's construction located at the most bustling place, it was also the tallest and grandest, occupying at least 300 mu of land. It was divided into the Mission Hall, the Documentation Hall, and the Treasury.
The Mission Hall was the only place open to the public, eight ghost immortal s stood in a row by the door, they were even more numerous than the guards at the southern gate of the Beast City.
At the moment, it was the busiest moment, Bai Zhenyun, Feng Ji and Zhou Ming walked into the hall.
The entire hall was supported by twelve huge golden pillars. Hundreds of these pillars were two zhang in length and three zhang in width. These boulders were as smooth as mirrors and were evenly distributed.
When the three of them arrived at the registration area, a beautiful young lady looked at the three of them, and then at Bai Zhenyun's identity plate: "Is Master Commander here to register?"
Bai Zhenyun nodded his head: "Yes, the two of them are my brothers, we will participate in the exam together."
The beauty smiled: "Beast City Commander, the lowest cultivation level is mid-stage ghost immortal, Sir does not need to take the test. It's just that these two friends of mine need to be tested, is Sir willing to do so? "
Bai Zhenyun looked at Feng Ji and Zhou Ming, and the two nodded. Bai Zhenyun replied: "Okay."
The beauty replied, "Besides the examinations, the Mercenary Guild will also record their identity, but it will not be made public. Early stage ghost immortal First Star Mercenary Robe, intermediate stage two star ghost immortal Mercenary Cloak, three star high level ghost immortal Mercenary Robe, whether a Worldly Immortal was a four star mercenary Robe or a five star Deity mercenary Robe. The highest was a five star mercenary robe. Because there were Earth Immortals and Celestial Immortals, no one could afford to hire them. When you break through your cultivation, you can go to any Mercenary Guild to change into a new mercenary robe, but you'll need to bring an old mercenary robe. "
Zhou Ming asked: "What if I lose my mercenary robe?"
The beauty revealed a smile, "We will verify your identity. If it is true, we will then re-evaluate your identity, and we will add on a mercenary robe based on your latest cultivation. However, if you send your old mercenary robe to your friends, regardless of whether your friends have sufficient cultivation base or not, they will all be subject to Mercenary Guild's sky-high bounty, which means your friends will be hunted down by the entire mercenary world. "
Zhou Ming shrunk his neck. "I wanted to let Feng Ji take the examination twice just now, so it's fine."
The beauty covered her mouth and laughed, "Please follow me to the Martial Arts Practice Grounds. The assessment will be quick."
The beautiful woman had a conversation with him in a low voice before she turned and walked over, "Sir, I have already told him that you will wait here for a moment. Once the two friends' assessment is over, you will immediately receive your mercenary robes and I will take my leave."
Bai Zhenyun nodded: "Thank you."
The beautiful woman left and the cultivator walked up to her: "Commander, please wait for a moment, we will begin the assessment immediately."
Bai Zhenyun nodded and found a place to stand.
Feng Ji glanced at Zhou Ming. "I'll start first." Yan Kai and the cultivator were entangled in a battle.
Zhou Ming stood at the side and observed carefully. Their treasures danced as they fought back and forth for over ten rounds, before the cultivator jumped out of the battle circle and said, "Congratulations, you have passed the two star examination."
Feng Ji bowed: "Thank you."
Seeing that, Zhou Ming took out his Yan Ling Blade and used all his strength to attack the cultivator. After the two of them fought for seven or eight rounds, the cultivator stopped and said: "Your cultivation level will soon reach the middle stage of the ghost immortal. For the sake of my lord, in order to prevent you from coming back to take the test again, I will give you the standard of a two star mercenary."
After saying that, he looked at Bai Zhenyun, and Zhou Ming said in great joy: "Is that so? "Thank you very much."
Bai Zhenyun and Feng Ji looked at each other, then Bai Zhenyun laughed out loud: "Since that's the case, then thank you very much. When you have time, come to my 108th battalion, and teach those rascals that don't know their limits."
The cultivator hurriedly said, "You are too courteous, milord." After saying that, he made a gesture, and three young beauties quickly walked over, holding onto three two star mercenary robes. They walked in front of the three of them, "Welcome to Mercenary Guild!" Yan Kai handed the black robes over to the three of them.
Bai Zhenyun took the black robe and carefully touched it. It was just that there were three golden stars embroidered on Zhu Gang's black robe.
The cultivator stepped forward and said, "I can now look for a suitable mission in the hall. I wish you good luck."
Bai Zhenyun said: "Thank you."
The three of them walked out of the training grounds. Zhou Ming asked in a low voice: "Big Brother, what level is that cultivator at? How could you see through my cultivation so quickly? "
Bai Zhenyun answered: "high level ghost immortal, I didn't expect this Mercenary Guild to also be a hidden dragon and crouching tiger."
Feng Ji said: "That's right, if he were to enter the Li Family, he would immediately become the commander. Yet he is here as an examiner."
