"Oh? Fellow Taoist Zhuo, you heard about it just after you came back? The limelight of this matter should have passed."

Master Tianhuo looked at Luo Hong with some surprise.

"On my way back, I happened to meet fellow Taoist Liu, and she informed me of this matter.

Fellow Daoist Tianhuo, what happened back then? Was the Ziji Sword really lost, or..."

Luo Hong only said half of what he said, but everyone here was a thoughtful person, and they could completely understand what he meant. They were just wondering whether Xing Gong was acting in those days.

Han Li also pricked up his ears. Even he, who was in seclusion at the time, had heard about the mysterious disappearance of Elder Xinggong after being given the sword, which shows how big the fuss was at that time.

"It's enough, fellow Taoist, that you are well aware of this matter and just go with me."

Master Tianhuo did not answer directly, but both of them understood.

Afterwards, Master Tianhuo took Luo Hong and Han Li to the mountain gate of Tianxing Palace.

The Heavenly Star Holy Mountain is surrounded by buildings in a circle and has a total of eighty-one floors. The last fifty floors are available for rent, while the first thirty floors are the territory of the Heavenly Star Palace. The top of the Holy Mountain is the residence of the Two Saints of the Heavenly Star.

Master Tianhuo's cave is on the thirty-third floor, so the three of them quickly arrived at the mountain gate of Tianxing Palace.

I saw Master Tianhuo taking out a transmission talisman and handing it to the Xing Palace disciple who was guarding the door. Not long after, the elder Gong, whom Luo Hong had met at the auction before, came with the weapon.

"Brother Tianhuo, you are fine after so many years!"

Elder Gong greeted him warmly.

"Old Gong, stop talking nonsense, I'm here today to make you fulfill your promise.

By borrowing the Soul-nurturing Hall of your Star Palace for a year and a half to refine the treasure, I and the Star Palace will be settled."

Master Tianhuo didn't give the other party a good face, probably because the Ziji Sword incident was a bit unpleasant.

The elder Gong was still smiling when he heard this, as if he didn't care about the rudeness of the fat old man Tianhuo.

"The Hall of Nourishing Souls is one of the spiritual eyes of the Holy Mountain of Heavenly Star. Even the disciples of the Star Palace are not allowed to enter easily."

The elder named Gong was talking when he saw Master Tianhuo frowning and knew that he had lost his patience, so he spoke quickly:

"But Brother Tianhuo, not only others, but also the two Saint Ancestors have heard about you. It is not impossible to borrow the Soul Cultivation Hall, but..."

"What are you doing with so many things from your mother-in-law? Old man Gong, I just asked if I could borrow them!"

Master Tianhuo couldn't hold it back after all. This person had many interactions with him, and they should have had some friendship after getting along for many years, but this person always spoke in a roundabout way, which was really not in his temperament.

"Of course I can borrow it, but not now. The Soul-raising Hall is currently being used. Brother Tianhuo still has to wait."

Elder Gong smiled secretly in his heart and explained the situation clearly in one sentence.

"Approximately how long will it take?"

Master Tianhuo didn't take it seriously when he heard this. If time is short, it's not impossible to wait.

"I don't know. The treasure refiner seems to be in trouble. If you are lucky, it will only take a few months, but if you are not lucky, it may take a few years."

Elder Gong spread his hands and said helplessly.

"Humph! Going around in such a big circle is just to make me work in vain!

It’s okay to let me take action once, but you need to lend me the dragon soul clock in your star palace.”

Master Tianhuo's eyes changed slightly, his tone softened, and then the lion opened his mouth and said.

"Deal! Brother Tianhuo, please!"

Elder Gong agreed without hesitation.

Now Tianhuo Zhenren, who had thought he could take advantage, was stunned. The other party's attitude was different from what he expected.

This Dragon Soul Bell is an important treasure of the Star Palace. Although it is not an ancient treasure, it is no less powerful than an ordinary ancient treasure because it contains the souls of more than ten dragons of level six or above.

It stands to reason that even if Elder Gong is finally willing to agree, he would have to shirk the situation first. How could he be so forthcoming now?

Could it be that I want to send my son away?

Luo Hong and Han Li looked at each other, each seeing the other's confusion in the other's eyes.

After hesitating for a moment, the two decided to remain calm, with Master Tianhuo taking the lead.

The Yangling Hall is located on the third floor of Tianxing Holy Mountain. The four of them fled for a while before arriving outside the hall door.

At this moment, all the restrictions outside the Soul-raising Hall have been opened, and pink halos are revealed from the door of the hall. It is obvious that someone is refining treasures inside.

Seeing this, the four of them all realized that the person in the palace had reached a critical moment in refining the treasure. At this time, as long as they did not want to offend the people in the palace, it was best not to disturb this person in any way, so they stood silently outside the ban and waited.

.

About an hour later, the pink halo suddenly fluctuated violently, but after a few breaths, the pink halo completely disappeared.

The Yangling Hall trembled visibly to the naked eye. If the restriction hadn't blocked the sound, Luo Hong and the others would have heard a loud noise.

At this time, Elder Gong played a transmission note, passed through the restriction and floated outside the palace door.

Immediately, the palace door opened a gap, and the transmission note flew in with a "whoosh".

After a while, the door of the palace was opened from the inside, and a monk wearing white clothes from the Star Palace, with black hair reaching his shoulders, and an emerald green jade headband around his forehead appeared in front of the four people.

After Luo Hong and the others saw this person's face clearly, they were stunned, with a look of astonishment on their faces.

This monk's face is like white jade, with dark eyebrows on his temples, phoenix eyes and a straight nose, and red and delicate lips. He is actually a very beautiful person.

But what makes the three people incredible is that they can't tell whether the monk is a boy or a girl!

He was said to be a woman, but even though this person had just failed in refining the treasure, she didn't look at all depressed. She showed a dash of masculinity in her movements and gestures.

Although he is a man, his face is really beautiful and pretty, and the unconcealed charm between his eyebrows is definitely not something a man can imitate.

Just when Tianhuo Zhenren and Han Li were wondering, Luo Hong had already shouted out the other person's name in his heart:

Ling Yuling!

The characteristics of this person were so obvious that even though Luo Hong had never seen her before, he could definitely confirm it based on his first impression.

This person is Ling Yuling, the daughter of the Twin Saints of Heaven and Star!

"Elder Gong, what do you want?"

"Master Nephew Ling, this is the famous Tianhuo Master in Tianxing City. Maybe he can help you solve your current problem."

Elder Gong extended his hand and introduced Ling Yuling.

As for Luo Hong and Han Li, in his eyes, they were just minor characters and not worth mentioning.

"It turns out that it's Senior Tianhuo who is in front of you! Junior Ling Yuling, whose name I have admired for a long time!"

Ling Yuling's face was filled with joy, and she immediately raised her hands in salute, with the same respectful attitude as ordinary Star Palace foundation-building disciples.

However, both Master Tianhuo and Han Li could tell from Elder Gong's attitude towards him that this person must be a very powerful figure in the Star Palace.

"Needless to say, I am still waiting to use the Yangling Hall to refine treasures. What kind of treasures are you refining? And at what point did the problem occur?"

The last thing Tianhuo wants to do is get involved with powerful people in the Star Palace, so he pretends to be indifferent and authentic.

"Senior, please come in. After entering the hall, I will talk to you in detail."

Ling Yuling opened the ban and politely invited the four people into the Soul-raising Hall.

As soon as he passed through the restriction, Luo Hong sensed a strong spiritual energy. Although it was far worse than his Spirit Gathering Hut, the external spiritual pressure here had also exceeded 200. It was definitely a rare training holy land. Old Demon Han

His expressions couldn't help but change slightly.

This level of external spiritual pressure is indeed suitable for refining ancient treasures. Fellow Taoist Tianhuo is really serious about it.

The Yangling Hall is a specialized place for refining weapons. The facilities for refining weapons are naturally extremely complete. In the center is a stone pillar as tall as one person, with a milky white flame burning on the top of the stone pillar.

Because the treasure refining had just ended, the fire spirit of this fire still remained in the temple.

Seemingly seeing that Luo Hong was quite concerned about the flames on the stone pillars, Master Tianhuo explained:

"This fire is white jade warm fire. It is very hot. Even for monks like us at the Dan Formation stage, it will be very troublesome if we get even a little bit of it. However, this fire is very easy to control. It is used to refine treasures that require a lot of firepower and careful control.

, the most suitable.”

"That's it." Luo Hong responded softly.

Using this fire to process the spiritual materials needed to refine the Five Elements Flag is both trouble-free and safe. This must be the main reason why Master Tianhuo insists on coming here to refine the treasure.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Ling Yuling couldn't help but become interested in Luo Hong, who could be treated kindly by Master Tianhuo.

Tianhuo Zhenren is well known for his talent and arrogance. He can treat the monk next to him who is in the early stage of forming pills like this. There must be something extraordinary about this person.

However, after Ling Yuling took a sneak look at Luo Hong, she felt that this person was plain and unremarkable.

Huh? There is a comrade behind him!

Ling Yuling accidentally discovered Han Laomo who had fallen behind everyone at some point, and was surprised at her own negligence.

"Is this...the silk of a phantom spider?"

At this time, Master Tianhuo had come to the weapon refining table, used his magic power to hold up a silk thread that was dozens of times thinner than hair, and said to himself uncertainly.

Then, he sent some mana into the filament, and saw a wisp of light pink mist emanating from the filament.

Master Tianhuo smelled it gently, then nodded with a look of understanding on his face and said:
To be continued...
