A teacher in Gongxuantang is checking a spotted leopard brought by five students.
That teacher was obviously a cultivator, he casually checked the blood mouth on the leopard's body and said to the five students: "It's a pity that you used too sharp weapons when killing this Zongshi-level demon leopard, which damaged the demon skin. Otherwise, I can give each of you an additional ten 7 Holy Coins as a reward."
The five students suddenly turned pale.
"Teacher, we've hunted down a Sect Master-level demonic tiger and have come to hand in the task." Xu Zhi Xiong pointed towards the demonic tiger's corpse.
The teacher came to the side of the demon tiger and praised: "The demon tiger's skin is intact, in a moment, each of you can receive twenty seven sacred coins."
"Twenty Seventh Sacred Coins." Fang Xueqin, Qi Qiguang, Xu Zhiyong, Tang Qingsong and the others cheered.
"Teacher!" One of the five students who had hunted down the demonic leopard walked out and bowed to the teacher.
The teacher looked at the student and said, "Peng Shanting, what's going on?"
Su Dao Xing saw that young man and his complexion changed. That young man was precisely the Peng family's disciple who had threatened him on the road before.
Peng Shan Ting, already a master of the Seven Veins Sect, pointed at the demon tiger and said: "From the wounds on this demon tiger's body, I can see that it was killed by someone who has reached the True Essence realm using the techniques of the True Essence realm."
The teacher touched the corpse of the demon tiger with his hand and said: "Not bad. Someone used water, fog, and earth to attack the demon tiger."
Su Dao Xing walked out and bowed to the teacher, saying: "The student is only a half-step from becoming a Master of the Martial Arts, having merely grasped the methods of manipulating water, fog, and earth."
Peng Shan Ting's eyes were fixed on Su Dao Xing with a bad look: "You are just a half-step Grandmaster, how can you use the methods of three kinds of cultivators? It's really ridiculous."
The students with Peng Shanting burst into laughter, casting disdainful glances at Su Daoming.
The teacher looked at Su Dao Xing and said: "Now use three methods."
"Good!" Su Dao Xing began to manipulate water, earth and fog.
The water vapor outside the room surged into the room, and in an instant, it turned into a fog that enveloped the room.
"The application of water and fog." The teacher nodded slightly towards Su Dao.
Su Dao Xing manipulated the soil particles, and the dust on the ground swirled around the feet of five students along with Peng Shan Ting.
"Hmph! A trivial skill." Peng Shanting and the others stamped their feet, and the enormous force shattered the dust that had condensed into a mud snake wrapped around their legs.
The teacher settled the seven sacred coins for Su Dao Xing's group and Peng Shan Ting's group, dragged the demon tiger and demon leopard into the courtyard inside Gongxun Hall, and sent away the students.
"Sudao Xing, when you become the sect master, don't forget our life-and-death battle." Peng Shanting and his companions didn't forget to threaten Sudao Xing with these words before they left.
"I'll accompany you to the end." Su Dao Xing was in no way inferior to Peng Shan Ting in terms of momentum.
"Despicable! A dignified Seven Pulse Master wants to engage in a life-or-death battle with a junior apprentice who will become a One Pulse Master in the future. If you have the ability, why don't you go and fight a life-or-death battle with an Eight Pulse or Nine Pulse Master?" Tang Qingsong couldn't stand Peng Shanting's arrogant attitude as a member of a wealthy family, and spoke sarcastically.
Peng Shanting and his men cast a cold gaze at Tang Qingsong.
"Wait for it."
"Ministry of Justice, Xing Tang's disciple Tang Qing Song and others want to have a fight with you, this young master. The premise is that our cultivation levels are equal, otherwise I wouldn't be stupid enough to fight with you." Tang Qing Song laughed loudly.
Peng Shan Ting and his group did not argue with Tang Qing Song again, their figures disappeared into the distance.
Su Dao Xing bowed his head in respect, a grateful smile on his face, and left Gongxun Hall.
Su Dao Xing obtained twenty-seven Sacred Coins and arrived at Taobao Street. He didn't rush to buy anything, but instead came to a ordinary-looking house on Taobao Street.
The room is square and regular, looking very ordinary, except that a sword hangs in front of the house and a knife makes the house look a bit different from others.
On the mainland, people hang portraits of saints on their home walls and a sword in front of their houses. There is only one profession that hangs a knife - the blacksmith.
Master Artisan, Master Alchemist, and Formation Master are all relatively prestigious professions on the mainland. Among millions of people, it's unlikely to find even one Master Artisan, Master Alchemist, or Formation Master.
The entire Eastern Dynasty had only one Array Master Mo Wen. The Forge Master and the Array Master were equally rare, with only a handful in the Eastern Dynasty.
Su Dao Xing's current visit was to one of the last remaining master craftsmen of the Eastern Imperial Dynasty, a craftsman known as the "Thousand-Year Craftsman", who lived in seclusion at the Seven Saints Institute and was called "Old Master Duan".
Mr. Duan is sitting in a rattan chair at home with his eyes closed, cultivating his spirit, and his hair and beard are as white as snow.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Duan!" Su Dao Xing bowed deeply outside the house to Mr. Duan.
"Come in," said Mr. Duan.
Su Dao Xing walked into the house, he didn't dare to look down on the old man who was over a thousand years old, to become a master craftsman one must cultivate the true boundary, and the master craftsman known as the Thousand Year Craftsman was at least a cultivator of the Master level, this old man was the highest cultivation he had ever seen.
In fact, when Su Dao Xing saw Nie Yuanhai of the Huaying Palace, he didn't know about Nie's cultivation level. Otherwise, he would have been shocked speechless. Nie turned out to be a legendary Saint-level figure.
Only a handful of people in the entire Eastern Empire knew that Nie was a Saint-level figure, and they could be counted on one hand.
Su Dao Xing respectfully placed ten Seven Holy Coins on a table in the house.
"Put the object you want to forge on the table." Old Master Duan stood up and stood in front of the table, he was actually a head taller than Su Daowu.
Su Dao Xing took out the yin-yang fish shuttle and placed it on the table.
"Huh!" Mr. Duan's face changed slightly.
Su Dao Xing guessed that the yin-yang fish-shaped shuttlecock that could change Duan Lao's expression must be an extraordinary treasure.
"It's interesting." Old Mr. Duan stretched out his hand and beckoned, summoning the yin fish spear and yang fish spear into his hands.
"Now!" Mr. Duan's words were like a sacred power that surged towards the yin-yang fish shuttle.
Mr. Duan's Daoist sayings, like the Buddha's Buddhist sayings and the sage's sacred sayings, are all sounds that conform to the rules of the Great Way, and can mobilize sacred power for one's own use.
The yin-yang fish arrows were surged with sacred power, and two small human-shaped souls appeared on the two arrows. The soul on the yang fish arrow emitted a scorching aura, while the soul on the yin fish arrow emitted an icy aura.
Su Dao Xing carefully observed the soul on the fish bone and found that the aura emitted by the soul was surprisingly similar to that of the slain demon tiger.
"That tiger on Tiger Island is no ordinary one, I reckon it's due to a coincidence of fate that it inherited the Demon Saint's technique and cultivated a yin-yang dual demon soul." Mr. Duan praised.
"Spare our lives, old master!" The two souls on the fish-shaped daggers begged for mercy.
Duan Lao laughed and stroked his beard, saying: "If the Demon Saint Shen Gong Xiang were still alive in that era, I wouldn't dare to refine your soul. Now, I'll refine your soul into an arrowhead, from now on, the world will have one more spiritual soldier."
