Nine Sun God King

Chapter 386

The flag array that Qin Yun had created not only made it easier for Yuan Yanying to water the plants; it was also extremely helpful to the Nine Extinction Profound Gate!

The Second Elder replied, “The Sect Leader will recover soon. At that time, he will definitely be very happy! All these years, he has been hoping that I would be able to create this kind of array.”

“I never thought that I would succeed even after working for so long and Xiao Yun, you just entered our Nine Extinction Profound Gate and you already made it out. You’re really amazing!”

The Second Elder felt that accepting Qin Yun as disciple was like picking up a treasure.

Qin Yun smiled and asked, “Sect Master is an alchemist. What is his rank?”

“He is a medicinal master! Many of the resources in our Nine Extinction Gate are accumulated through hard work in concocting pills! It’s all our elders’ fault. We didn’t use much strength.” The Second Elder said in shame.

A medicinal pill master was the same as an Inscription master; they were extremely important to a Xuan sect.

The Second Elder was also at the peak of the Spirit realm and he was already an intermediate Xuan Inscription Master. This was quite impressive.

Yuan Yanying walked in the medicinal field, looking at the flowers and plants that were enveloped in colorful spiritual energy and was very happy.

Suddenly, a beautiful white bird flew towards Yuan Yanying and chirped.

Yuan Yanying held the little bird, frowned and said, “Second Elder, there is a spirit pigeon outside. It should be here to pass on the message!”

“Alright, I’ll go and take a look at the letter brought by that spirit pigeon!” The Second Elder left in a hurry.

On the other hand, Qin Yun went to inspect the formation and taught Yuan Yanying to use it.

After learning how to use the flag array, Yuan Yanying went to clean the feathers of a dirty bird.

“Yanying, what is your martial spirit?” Qin Yun asked out of curiosity.

“I don’t know either! My Martial Spirit is a red thing but it can also allow me to cultivate very strong inner strength. Although my Dao Energy is also powerful, I still do not know what kind of type of Dao Energy it is!” Yuan Yanying shook her head.

“Is it because of your Martial Spirit that you can communicate with birds and beasts?” Qin Yun asked out of curiosity.

“It should be! My martial spirit wasn’t like that at first but then it changed.” Yuan Yanying also felt a little puzzled and nodded her head.

Qin Yun thought of Feng Honglan’s Red Orchid Martial Spirit. It was also red in color.

If the color of a martial spirit was not one of the common ones, then it was a variant martial spirit.

“Let me take a look!” Qin Yun placed his hand on Yuan Yanying’s abdomen and probed it. Soon, he saw a red mass of Martial Spirit in the dantian.

He said with some surprise, “There is an aura of fire but it is suppressed!”

“Really? Then, is there any possibility for me to condense a flame?” Yuan Yanying exclaimed in surprise.

“It should be possible!” Qin Yun nodded.

Yuan Yanying smiled happily and said, “Sect Master said I have the talent to grow plants. I have a special feeling towards plants and am very suitable to refine elixirs. But I don’t have a fire martial spirit, which is such a pity. Otherwise, I would have been able to learn alchemy from him!”

Qin Yun felt that by using the Soul Refining Art, he could refine the fire spirit and merge it into Yuan Yanying’s body. That would make up for her regret.

However, he also thought that Yuan Yanying’s Martial Spirit was quite special and was currently in a state of growth. If he were to act recklessly, it would also affect her.

The Second Elder returned with a small slip of paper. He handed it to Qin Yun and said, “Little Yun, it’s a message for you!”

Qin Yun took it over and was slightly surprised.

The messenger was actually Hong Yan, the ninth prince of Hong Wu Country!

Hong Yan had successfully entered the King Sect, the Fire King Sect. In one month, there will be a celebration banquet in the Hong Wu Palace!

In addition, the Fire King Sect was holding a pill competition but it could only be attended by Xuan pill masters.

Hong Yan also said that if Wei Zhongzheng’s injuries recovered, he would be able to participate in the pill competition and the rewards would be very generous.

“There’s still a month’s time. Can Sect Master catch up?” Qin Yun looked at the Second Elder and asked.

“He should be able to make it in time! It has to be said that this boy Hong Yan truly has some ability. He was taken in as a disciple by the Fire King Sect!” The Second Elder smiled and said, “You must know that in order to enter a king level sect, one must reach the fifth level of the Martial Dao Realm. Then, one can compete with the disciples of multiple Xuan level sects and enter the sect.”

Yuan Yanying said, “Is there an age limit?”

“Under the age of fifty, fifth level of the Martial Dao Realm!” The Second Elder smiled, “You guys can work hard! If you can enter a king level sect, then we have a backer!”

“The reason why the Sword Profound Mountain is so powerful is because they have two disciples from king level sects. Those two disciples are at the Xuan Martial Realm, so they entered a king level sect a long time ago!”

Qin Yun had previously understood from Hong Yan that if he were to enter a king level sect, the sect he belonged to would continue to support him with various resources.

This was because the competition between the king level sects was very brutal. If one wanted to stand up for themselves, one had to rely on the support of the original sects.

Therefore, entering a king level sect had a lot to do with the original Xuan level sect.

“When the time comes, I will make a trip to the Hong Wu Palace as well!” Qin Yun still needed to retrieve the magical beast crystal egg but Hong Mengshu had already sent someone to buy it for him.

The Second Elder nodded his head, “Let’s talk about it when the time comes. I’ll go back and busy myself!”

He still had a lot of things he needed to do to refine for his disciples.

As for Qin Yun, he headed to the library in the Nine Extinction Gate to look up some information.

The library of the Nine Extinction Profound Gate was also not small. In one tower, there were several levels.

They were all records of all sorts of things that happened in the Desolate land or perhaps legends.

Although Qin Yun was interested, he still needed a lot of time to finish reading those records. And the books he was looking for here were to solve some problem.

After strolling around the first level, he started looking for the old man who managed the library from an unknown location.

“Old grandpa, have you heard of the ancient gardens? Where are the relevant books?” Qin Yun asked. He had obtained an ancient garden pass from the medicinal pill scripture he had obtained from the second pearl of the Nine Yang Divine Spirit.

After the old man heard this, he opened his eyes wide and said, “Ancient Era’s Garden? That is an extremely terrifying forbidden area! It’s near the road to the Thorny Devil!”

“In ancient times, the Demon Desolate lands, Magical Desolate lands and Martial Desolate lands had three powerful creatures from each Desolate land. They constructed an extremely powerful area and had three desolate veins. That’s why there are all kinds of medicinal herbs and powerful beasts living in this place.”

“But later on, three powerful creatures from the great desolate land fought inside, destroying everything inside! And then. An expert from the Spirit Desolate Realm sealed the ancient garden!”

Qin Yun said with a frown, “Spirit Desolate?”

The old man nodded, “Legend has it that there are nine great Desolate lands in the Land of the Nine Suns! The weakest are Martial Desolate, Demonic Desolate and Beast Desolate.”

“Above these three weakest Wasteland are the Spirit Desolate land and Magical Desolate land! Later on, some of the magical beings entered the Beast Desolate and occupied the Beast Desolate. The Beast Desolate became the Magical Beast Desolate, which is now part of the Magical Desolate land!”

When Qin Yun heard this, he also understood why there were so many magical beasts in the Magical Desolate land. It was because the magical beings had occupied them.

Now, even though he knew about the Ancient Era’s Garden, he did not know what use that command medallion had.

“Does that mean the ancient gardens still exist?” Qin Yun asked.

“It should still exist but it’s sealed. As for what’s going on inside, I’m not sure!?” The old man shook his head and laughed, “I also heard it from the elder!”

“Thank you, grandpa!” Qin Yun thanked him before hurriedly returning to the medicinal field.

Yuan Yanying was cultivating in a secret room. Qin Yun did not disturb her.

He entered the secret chamber as well but he did not train. Instead, he took out the Mysterious Pill Scripture.

“I need to make some equipment that can be used to make medicine!” Qin Yun pondered as he looked at the blueprint for the Alchemy equipment in the Mysterious Pill Scripture.

In order to refine a medicinal pill, one had to use a very good refining tool.

“If I can forge those tools, even Yanying can use them to refine medicine!” Qin Yun also recalled that a senior had once told him that alchemy and medicine were closely related to the Dao of inscriptions.

Looking at the blueprints, he felt that the most difficult part of crafting an equipment for alchemy was to inscribe star runes!

“If I can make these things, I might be able to become an alchemist too!” Qin Yun was secretly excited.

There were two types of common alchemy vessels. Refining medicinal powder and refining medicinal liquid!

What Qin Yun saw on the blueprints were all in the shape of jars.

As long as the medicinal herbs were placed in a jar and infused with inner force, the jar would be able to refine the medicinal herbs into powder. Refining the medicinal liquid was about the same!

“If you want to concoct pills, then you have to mix the medicinal powder and the medicinal liquid into a paste according to the recipe. Then, you have to put it into the furnace, control the fire to dry it and then condense the mixture into a pill! During the process of drying and solidification, the medicinal liquid, the medicinal powder and even the energy must be constantly injected.”

After carefully reading about these items, Qin Yun had a rough understanding of the process of refining pills.

Many alchemists had to request for an Inscription Master to craft their tools and the quality of the tools also determined the quality of the pills.

“All the medicinal pill tools sold on the market should be made with common inscriptions!”

Qin Yun looked at the medicinal pill scripture in his hand. The alchemy runes on it were all Star and Moon runes!

“The difficulty is to inscribe Star rune! I have to try learning the Star rune!” Qin Yun took out a piece of paper and immediately conjured the power of his Blood Soul with Mental Resonance Xuan Pen. He began inscribing Star Runes on the paper.

Currently, the star runes he was inscribing were precisely the spirit rank alchemy star runes.

The alchemy star runes looked messy, as if a child was drawing on paper with a pen or as if a chicken was scratching on the ground. There was simply no proper rune to speak of.

That was why it made his head hurt the moment he saw it!

Even if it were a very high level spirit rune or Xuan rune, one would be able to see the shape of the entire body, so it was easier to grasp when learning them.

Star runes and moon runes were simply a mess. If he were to draw out the bright and dark lines and show them to a Spirit Inscription Master, he might laugh at the fact that they were the death runes.

Even in the Martial Desolate land, people who knew moon and star runes were rarely seen.

Previously, Qin Yun had encountered a Xuan Inscription Master in the Divine Inscription Palace. He did not understand the Moon runes.

Qin Yun had initially thought that it was difficult to grasp the Star runes but when he made contact with the paper, he accidentally discovered that it was very easy to draw.

Unknowingly, he had already grasped the smooth path of drawing the star rune!

“This spirit rank star rune seems to be easier to grasp than the royal grade spirit rune. Could it be because I’ve cultivated the Star Yang Heart Sutra?” Qin Yun suddenly thought of this.

He had passed the trial of the Inscription Gate before and the Star Yang Heart Sutra had played a big role in that!

It could be seen that after mastering the Star Yang Heart Sutra, learning the Star and Moon runes would be much easier!

Qin Yun was secretly delighted as he took out the materials and began forging the equipment.
