Great Red Immortal Sect

Chapter 196 Sent to
Three years later, Xu Xuan finished refining the elixir and repaired the hidden dangers left over from his previous practice.

After coming out of the main hall, he thought for a moment and went straight to Huang Qifeng next to him and entered the weapon room.

"Over there, watch the heat."

"You increased your magic power, yes, yes, why did you collapse due to exhaustion? The next person will take over."

"Chengyan, did you see that? Fan harder and I'll teach you another fire control technique."

Xu Xuan walked to the door quietly without anyone noticing. He saw several Qi-refining disciples busying themselves there. Many of them had exhausted their magic power and fell to the side.

Wen Guang was lying on an iron recliner with his eyes narrowed. Beside him was Cheng Yan, who was holding a palm-leaf fan with several wind-blowing and fire-controlling formations on it, and was fanning Wen Guang continuously.

As the wind blew past, the body of the fire spirit swelled up with the wind, as if it were being massaged. Wen Guang seemed to feel extremely comfortable and urged:

"Fan it quickly. I have already made an agreement with Elder Xi Wei. You can't be lazy."

Cheng Yan was now a young man, approaching eighteen, and his cultivation had reached the first level of Qi Refining. He was born with a smart appearance, bright eyes, and wore a dark black Taoist robe. He said dissatisfiedly:
"Wen Guang, you've been asking me to fan you for days, and I even brought you a lot of spiritual fire as snacks, but you haven't taught me much."

"What do you know? I don't teach you the Dharma easily. I'm testing your character. Keep fanning. And all of you, increase your magic power. Don't let the fire weaken."

Wen Guang slumped on the recliner, squinting his eyes and giving orders. Xu Xuan concealed his presence and walked in slowly.

Wang Chengyan was very smart. When he turned around and saw the sect leader coming, his face immediately lit up with joy. He was about to salute, but Xu Xuan made a gesture to keep quiet.

Xu Xuan took the palm-leaf fan, asked Cheng Yan to step back, and started fanning it. Several disciples from the Huohuo Hall beside the stove had strange expressions on their faces, and dared not say a word. They all increased their magic power and started to urge the spiritual fire.

"Okay, Chengyan, you've finally gotten the hang of it. You're fanning well and you've made progress."

There was no response from behind. Wen Guang turned his head suspiciously, and when he saw Xu Xuan with his childlike eyes, he immediately jumped up from the recliner, hit the ceiling, and then fell heavily to the ground.

"So it's the Sect Master who's here. I was wondering if the wind behind me today was unusual. It makes me feel comfortable all over. I feel like my cultivation and memory have recovered a lot."

"The spiritual objects we refined today all went flawlessly, and the temperature was perfect. It must be the Sect Master coming out of seclusion that's why everything went so smoothly for us."

Wen Guang smiled widely and hurried forward, his tone sincere, almost kowtowing.

Xu Xuan had never seen Wen Guang so supportive before, it was really refreshing.

"Haha, Wen Guang, you're living a very comfortable life these days."

Xu Xuan looked at the fire spirit in front of him with a smile on his face.

Suddenly, sparks slowly fell from Wen Guang's forehead. He looked nervous and said:
"Master, you're joking. During your retreat, I've been thinking of your kindness day and night. Look, we have your portrait in our forging room."

He stretched out his hand and pointed, motioning Xu Xuan to look at the wall behind him. Sure enough, there was a painting hanging high on the gray wall.

The painting above shows the battle with the Lotus Temple. It is on the Li River. Xu Xuan draws his sword to kill Ci Hai, standing alone in front of the rolling devil clouds.

"I painted this specially and it's hanging in our weapon room. No other hall has it. Every day, seeing you, the headmaster, keeps everyone motivated and we don't feel tired at all, right?"

Wen Guang looked at the disciples beside the alchemy furnace, his eyebrows twitching, and they all shouted in unison:

"Master, please watch over me. I won't get tired of waiting."

Xu Xuan glanced at the people in front of him, their magic power was almost exhausted, and their haggard appearance due to not having rested for a long time. He really couldn't believe what Wen Guang said.

"Wen Guang, you really put your heart into it. So, did I misunderstand you?"

He gently patted the Fire Spirit's shoulder. Wen Guang immediately saluted and said in a deep voice:

"It is Wen Guang's duty to do his best for the sect. I asked Cheng Yan to fan the fire earlier so that I could personally train him in fire control. I also taught these fellow disciples a lot of refining techniques."

"My lord, I hope you will understand."

Cheng Yan covered his face in the back. He was familiar with Wen Guang and had been running between Houhuo Hall and Duanzhengshi since he was a child. But when he saw the shamelessness of this fire spirit, he was speechless.

"Forget about this. If you do this again in the future, I will send you to Dongmi and make you burn corpses and insects every day."

Xu Xuan still had a smile on his face as he gently pressed Wen Guang's head. How could this fire spirit be so lazy now? What would happen in the future?
When Wen Guang heard this, the flames on his face fell off. He wiped them away with his hand, smiled very flatteringly, and said:
"Master, the three sets of armor you asked me to make are now complete. I'd like to see them."

"Oh?"

Xu Xuan was a little surprised. He had originally said that it would be completed within three years, but he was just urging Wen Guang. According to his estimation, it would probably take five or six years to complete the refining. This speed was beyond his expectations.

"Okay, you're not lazy."

Wen Guang chuckled, looked back and gestured slightly. Wang Chengyan sighed and had to go into the inner room to take out a set of armor first.

"First, this [Ze Guang], which is designed for thunder and lightning, can nourish thunder and accumulate lightning. It also has the miraculous effect of increasing the power of swords and weapons. It is most suitable for close combat."

"I've also specially crafted a sword stand for you on the back. It can hold several flying swords, allowing you to manipulate them at will. They're connected to each other, as if they were one."

Wen Guang waved his hand to summon [Ze Guang], a light armor that was purple-black in color. The armor plates were like dragon scales with cloud and thunder patterns on them. There was a sword rack on the back, and the aura of Gengjin was diffused, filled with murderous intent.

"Thank you for taking the trouble."

Xu Xuan looked at Wen Guang. The other party had obviously considered the details and understood that Xu Xuan liked to control several flying swords, so he designed it specially.

"No, it's our duty to share the Master's worries. What we have done is not even one ten-thousandth of what the Master has contributed to the sect. Every time I..."

"Stop."

Xu Xuan had a headache. When Wen Guang just revived, he was still quite ignorant, but now he is like this. He didn't know if it was his nature or if he learned it from someone. But after thinking about it, he felt that when it came to flattery in the sect, this Fire Spirit was the best and no one could compare to him.

Wen Guang had a look of grievance on his face. He took out another set of armor and said softly:
"This is the [Huafeng], the Wu Earth Treasure Armor. I didn't refine the Xiaguang spiritual object to increase its flexibility, but instead refined some Yuanci spiritual objects to strengthen the nature of the mountain root. This armor is designed for protection. The outer layer has thirty-six defensive formations, and the inner layer contains twelve repair formations, all of which are at the first level of foundation building."

This is a heavy armor, composed of layers of dark brown armor plates, emitting a strong earth light, and even has the repulsive and interfering power of the Yuan magnetic field. It is obviously a heavy protective weapon.

Xu Xuan looked at them and was very satisfied. These two pieces of armor were both top-grade foundation-building items, with quality comparable to ancient magical instruments, and they had many functions, so anyone could use them.

"What about the last one? It's the one with evil spirit."

Wen Guang looked a little hesitant at this time, but Cheng Yan beside him moved, entered the inner room, and took out a pitch-black gem, which completely extinguished the surrounding light.

"Master, this is the [Evil Day]."

The fire spirit didn't say much, but gestured to Xu Xuan to pick it up and take a look.

Xu Xuan summoned the pitch-black orb, and he too was puzzled. He had never seen armor like this before. He lifted it up and saw a surge of evil energy in the center of the orb, transforming into the shape of a sun. A three-legged divine crow, its body pitch black, with only its skeleton remaining, soared within it. "Why are there signs of the Golden Crow?"

Xu Xuan was puzzled. Because of the Fire Crow, he knew the Golden Crow quite well. It was a symbol of the sun, so how could it appear among these evil spirit creatures?

"Master, I don't know. I was originally trying to refine it into a suit of armor, but it turned into a bead. But it still has some effect. Please take a look first."

Wen Guang was also feeling very nervous at this time. This gem consumed the most spiritual materials to refine, but in the end it turned out like this. He felt around and couldn't see anything magical about it, so he was afraid that it must have been ruined.

"Tian Tuo, what's going on with this evil sun and the Golden Crow skeleton?"

Xu Xuan was puzzled. This thing had consumed a lot of his spiritual objects. A conservative estimate was that Nan Xiu's Shaqi Pagoda and Xi Ming's Skynet were both refined into it, and there were also many other spiritual objects mixed in.

Tian Tuo's voice sounded, and he said faintly:

"It seems he's the second son of the Golden Crow. He rebelled against his elder brother and was stripped of his flesh and blood and banished to the Sha Abyss. This Sha Qi took advantage of this and has since developed the ability to devour light."

"It's extremely rare to find something that can produce this kind of image. I don't know what it's used for either."

Xu Xuan calmed down and activated his magic power. The black gem instantly turned into rolling black gas that covered him, and a raging evil flame rose.

He tried to activate it and found that this magic weapon could stop all kinds of magic lights and was not affected by water or fire, but he did not see any other magical powers.

"Perhaps there's something wrong with the refining method and the spiritual object. We should go in the direction of the Evil Abyss Ring Serpent. The Golden Crow is already dead this time. Apart from swallowing light, it doesn't have any other magical powers."

Tian Tuo's voice was somewhat gloating, and he commented directly, saying in a low voice:

"This item is of a very high grade and status. It is extremely difficult to refine it during the foundation building stage, but it is of little use. There are other ways to protect against the magic light. You have wasted a lot of spiritual items."

These words were like a bolt from the blue to Xu Xuan's ears. He only had such a small fortune, and a lot of it was lost in an instant.

"Wen Guang."

Xu Xuan put away the [Evil Sun] and looked at the other party with a smile. The fire spirit felt scared and immediately knelt down, hugged Xu Xuan's legs, and cried:
"Master, I want to practice it well, but there is something wrong with that spiritual object. It's really none of my business."

Xu Xuan looked to the side and told the disciples who came to help to go back first and get some supplies and spiritual objects. Then only Xu Xuan, Wen Guang and Wang Chengyan were left in the weapon room.

He grabbed the ear made of warm flames and lifted the boy up, gritting his teeth and saying:

"It's broken. Is it because you were lazy?"

Wen Guang looked to the side and said softly:

"Maybe, possibly, there is a hint of that"

Xu Xuan sighed lightly and put Wen Guang down. In addition to looking at the three sets of armor, he also had other things to instruct, so he leaned in and whispered.

Wen Guang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he completely forgot what he had said before. He nodded continuously and finally shouted:

"Master, you're so clever! I never thought of this."

"Don't make any noise. Just refine the stuff first, and then I'll take you out."

"Okay, I'm almost getting sick from being bored here, I will definitely live up to the trust of the master."

Wen Guang smiled happily and agreed immediately. Xu Xuan hesitated for a moment, but still took out a mustard seed-sized object, which was full of spiritual objects, almost emptying his family's wealth.

"If you're lazy again this time, you'll go to Dongmi to deal with those corpses and poisonous insects, and you won't have to go back to the mountain."

Xu Xuan turned around and motioned Cheng Yan to leave with him. Wen Guang had a desolate look on his face as he bid farewell to the Sect Leader from afar. Then he stumbled towards the Yangyang Furnace, dived in, and began to work hard.

Riding the wind, Wang Chengyan looked at the Fire Spirit behind him, with some reluctance in his eyes, and said softly:

"Master, Wen Guang only relaxed after refining those three sets of armor. He didn't slack off during the forging process."

Xu Xuan looked at Senior Brother Xi Wei's grandson with a kind look in his eyes and said in a deep voice:

"I know, that's just his personality. He won't give his all unless you push him."

"You have already achieved Qi Refining. Have you encountered any problems in your cultivation?"

Wang Chengyan's eyes lit up. Hearing that the master wanted to answer these questions personally, he immediately expressed some of his doubts. Xu Xuan explained them one by one, including practice, enlightenment, etc.

"You are practicing the 'Flame Fortune Xingshi', and the 'Zai Xingyan' fighting technique is quite powerful. In addition to refining weapons, you should also practice some self-defense spells."

"Now that we, the elders, are here, there's naturally nothing to worry about. But ultimately, relying on others is not as good as relying on yourself. You must remember this principle."

Xu Xuan looked at Cheng Yan. He was quite satisfied with this child. His temperament was as gentle and generous as Qiyun, but he also knew how to adapt, just like his mother Shen Shu.

"Junior understands."

Wang Chengyan looked serious and responded in a deep voice.

"How is the situation in the sect recently? Tell me about it."

Xu Xuan stood in the clouds, and Wang Chengyan beside him was a little nervous, but he still spoke in detail, with clear logic and appropriate details, and described clearly the changes in the sect in the past three years.

"Well, besides refining weapons, you can also pay attention to these changes in the sect. It's rare."

"From now on, you and Wen Guang will jointly preside over the Forging Chamber. If there is any spiritual object missing, just go and call for it."

Xu Xuan laughed out loud and was about to talk about these things with Wen Guang again, but he saw someone coming outside the mountain gate.

He had very good eyesight. Looking out, he saw a handsome young man with a dignified demeanor and an air of frontier living. He did not look like an ordinary person. He wore a dark gold sword with a phoenix and sun pattern on it at his waist.

The other party's cultivation has reached the eighth level of Qi Refining. Considering his young age, his cultivation speed is quite impressive.

"The sun, he was cultivating the sun."

Tiantuo's voice sounded, seeming a little confused.

"But at Qingwei Dachiguan, Brother Xiaowen asked me to come here, and I hope to see you."

Xu Xuan suddenly raised his head, and his body turned into lightning, and disappeared in an instant. He landed in front of the other party and said in a deep voice:

"Please come in."
