Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant

Chapter 338: Chapter 4: Class II Spirit Cook’s Magic Tool_3

After two days and nights of flight and several uses of the teleportation array, he finally managed to reach the boundary of Zhenling Palace without any hitch.

The landscape here was gentle with numerous sprawling plains, on which sat several cities.

The Zhenling Palace was located among these cities, standing tall atop a cloud-kissed mountain peak, akin to a celestial abode.

However, for some reason, not long after entering the territory of Zhenling Palace, he experienced a fleeting and subtle sensation in his heart.

Trying to tune in to it proved difficult as it was impossible to capture that feeling again.

After some thought, he attributed it to his own illusion.

Without any surprises, Wang Ba and Wen Yong quickly found the Class II Tool Refiner leisurely strolling in a ghost market on the periphery of Zhenling Palace.

To Wang Ba’s surprise, the person was a Foundation Establishment cultivator in his late stage, with a pleasant and gentlemanly demeanor, and an aura no less than that of Wen Yong’s, with a well-proportioned physique.

“Greetings to Fellow Cultivator Li.”

Wen Yong’s smile was quite amicable, and he quickly became acquainted with this surnamed Li Tool Refiner.

Upon hearing that Wang Ba wanted to refine a Class II Spiritual Cook’s magic tool, this surnamed Li Tool Refiner looked at Wang Ba in a bit of surprise:

“Could you be Master Shen Fu that many cultivators often mention?”

Seeing his reaction, Wang Ba knew it was impossible to deny, so he nodded in affirmation.

However, he was quite surprised that even the surnamed Li Tool Refiner knew of his fame.

In his view, he had merely refined some spirit food, which hardly warranted such fame.

For example, he was doing nothing significantly different from Bao Chao back in Jiantao Station.

However, Bao Chao had always been confined within the Tianmen Cult, and was not highly regarded by the cultivators of the Tianmen Cult, apart from those who, like himself, did not follow the Demon Dao.

Bao Chao never returned after the fight against the Incense Fire Dao.

In Yan State, however, the majority followed the traditional Qi refining path, thus the demand for spirit food always existed.

The spiritual cook’s heritage in this place was not targeted at Spirit Beasts, but Spirit Rice.

There were a few Spiritual Cooks in Xuli Sect who specialized in using spirit rice as raw material to make spirit food.

However, the essence of spirit rice they made was far less effective than the essence of spirit chicken, and more often served as a supplement to the elixirs, rather than a direct substitute.

Lee, the Tool Refiner, wasn’t aware of Wang Ba’s thinking, but exclaimed at once:

“What a coincidence! I was just planning to look for you!”

Wang Ba asked in confusion, “Looking for me?”

“Not to hide it from you, I have several children, and only one of them has a Spiritual Root, unfortunately, his qualification is mediocre and is unlikely to reach Foundation Establishment in this lifetime…”

The surnamed Li Tool Refiner said with a sigh.

His spirits revived immediately and he looked at Wang Ba with anticipation in his eyes:

“But the spirit chicken essence you refined can reportedly improve one’s physique and even help break through bottlenecks. Several cultivators have recommended it to me.”

“So, I wanted to find Fellow Cultivator Shen to purchase a batch of spirit chicken essence.”

“Ah, I see.”

Wang Ba suddenly realized, and then understood why he was so important to him.

The essence of Spirit Chicken does help cultivators to break through bottlenecks. This is mainly because the spirit chicken used by Wang Ba is all bred from the variety of Precious Chicken.

The book “Everything about Poultry” by Master Jiaohu had recorded that consuming large amounts of Precious Chicken was beneficial for cultivators to break through bottlenecks.

The essence of spirit chicken is derived from the extraction of a large amount of spirit chicken, so its effect is naturally more obvious.

However, this effect couldn’t be exaggerated and could only increase the chance of breakthrough by ten or twenty percent at most.

Even so, for most cultivators, it was of great value. More importantly, the increase in mana was comparable to elixirs, and there was no risk of elixir poisoning.

This was the fundamental reason why Wang Ba was named a master with just one achievement.

With this need, the transaction between the two became much easier. Wang Ba directly took out two bottles of Spirit Chicken Essence, while the surnamed Li Tool Refiner brought out his own refining materials, prepared for the early-stage of tool refinement according to Wang Ba’s requirements.

Compared to Wang Ba’s refinement of spirit chicken essence, Tool Refining was much more complex.

Not only did it require choosing the appropriate spirit fire according to the corresponding refining materials, but it also required adjusting the proportion of the components in the refining materials and so on.

The most critical point was that the funeral ceremony of Zhenling Palace had begun, and the surnamed Li Tool Refiner had to stop his work to attend it.

Both Wang Ba and Wen Yong did not attend.

The funeral ceremony lasted for seven days.

When the surnamed Li Tool Refiner returned, he had a complicated expression and couldn’t help expressing his astonishment:

“In the past, Zhenling Palace had seven Golden Core cultivators, and Master Zhang presided over it. In Yan State, nobody dared to challenge them. Now it has withered overnight.”

“With Master Zhang around, Zhenling Palace could recover its vitality in a short time.”

Upon hearing his words, Wen Yong uttered something similar to what Wang Ba had heard before.

However, hearing Wen Yong’s words, the surnamed Li Tool Refiner hesitated for a while, set up a sound-isolating talisman, faltered a little, and spoke:

“I’m afraid Master Zhang may not make it this time. With such a grand occasion, Master Zhang did not preside over it…”

“What? Master Zhang didn’t show up?”

Upon hearing this, Wen Yong’s face turned to shock, and he immediately became serious.

Zhang Daobai is a banner of Zhenling Palace, especially in the context of the fall of the three Golden Core cultivators, it is necessary for him to step forward to re-establish the prestige of Zhenling Palace.

However, such a solemn funeral, Zhang Daobai did not appear, the meaning behind this would send chills down the spine of any cultivator of Yan State after a little thought.

If Zhang Daobai really is no more, the three major sects in the south might not remain silent…

“Yan state is likely to fall into chaos!”

Wen Yong looked serious, expressing his worries.

This was the first time Wang Ba had seen Wen Yong in such a state.

The surnamed Li Tool Refiner nodded slightly at Wen Yong’s words, clearly acknowledging them.

“Brother Wen, why don’t you go back first and make arrangements? I’ll wait here until Li has finished refining, then I’ll return on my own.”

Wang Ba suggested after giving it some thought.

Wen Yong hesitated.

Li, the Tool Refiner, spoke up: “After I have successfully refined it, I can accompany Shen back. Wen, you can rest assured.”

In the end, Wen Yong bit the bullet and left.

Meanwhile, Wang Ba and the surnamed Li Tool Refiner rented a set of refining rooms in the local market and began to refine the Spiritual Cook’s magic tool.

Half a month later.

Wang Ba stared at the complete set of exquisite stove-like magical tools in front of him, feeling immensely satisfied.

“Finally, I can refine the essence of the Class II spirit chicken!”
