I Am Such An Expert; Why Do I Have To Take In Disciples

Chapter 168: Child, I’m Your Father

After two days and nights of forging, Lu Xiaoran finally forged the Martial Monarch Realm weapons into divine weapons.

He shook off the sweat on his forehead. Because it was too hot, the clothes on his upper body had already been removed. His healthy muscles were perfected by the sunlight. The sweat flowing on his skin was like diamonds that reflected the sunlight’s colorful colors.

“Hah! It’s been too long since I last refined weapons. My hands are a little rusty.”

Although he said this, Lu Xiaoran’s weapon refinement technique was still extremely top-notch. If it was not top-notch, he would not be able to forge a divine weapon.

Lu Xiaoran estimated that he was the only one in the world who could forge divine weapons.

In terms of secondary professions, no one was his match. This was because secondary professions relied on attainments instead of daily cultivation.

If only cultivation could also rely on attainments. If he could cultivate to the Martial Monarch Realm in ten years, he wouldn’t have to work so hard now.

“How did these Martial Monarch Realm weapons become low-grade God Realm weapons? Wang Cai, come out and explain to me.”

“Coming, coming, Master, I’m here.”

Wang Cai flew out of Lu Xiaoran’s body. As soon as he came out, he saw Lu Xiaoran’s powerful muscles and was instantly stunned on the spot. Then, two streams of blood flowed out of the dog’s nose.

Lu Xiaoran :”…”

He silently picked up the Martial Monarch Realm hammer he used to forge his weapons, the Void Shattering Hammer. Wang Cai immediately wiped the blood from his nose and looked elsewhere.

“Master, why are you looking for me?”

Seeing that he was still sensible, Lu Xiaoran finally put down the Martial Monarch Realm weapon in his hand and voiced his doubts.

“My forging skills should be good enough. Why are the divine weapons I forged all low-grade God Realm?”

“Because Master only added one Divine Dao Spirit Stone to each Martial Monarch Realm weapon. A material like a Divine Dao Spirit Stone can indeed evolve a Martial Monarch Realm weapon into a divine weapon. However, Master, don’t forget that no matter how impressive Master’s forging technique is, you can only use the material to its limit.”

“Otherwise, wouldn’t his master be able to create a Martial Monarch Realm weapon or even a divine weapon by just hitting the air?

“If Master wants to forge a higher-grade divine weapon, Master would have to add in more Divine Dao Spirit Stones.

“However, Master had already done very well. This was because even if Master had the Divine Dao Spirit Stones, the forging process might not be 100% successful. After all, this is completely dependent on his character and forging skills.

“Even in the Divine World, blacksmiths don’t dare to say that they will succeed every time. On the other hand, Master succeeded with all five weapons. This is already very impressive.”

“I see.”

Lu Xiaoran put away his divine weapon and threw the Void Shattering Hammer to the side of the furnace.

Looks like in the future, he would have to collect more Divine Dao Spirit Stones in order to forge his divine weapons to an even higher level.

Now that he did not have enough materials, there was nothing he could do.

He decided to be satisfied with this for now.

“Now, let’s talk about the previous two God Realm cultivation techniques. One of them is the Supreme Profound Dipper Technique, and the other is the Great Dao Reincarnation. I can’t cultivate these two cultivation techniques now, but I need to use the abilities inside. Can you help me think of a way?”

“Hmm…”

Wang Cai lowered his small head and began to ponder.

“This is a little difficult. Master’s current strength is not enough, so it’s definitely impossible for Master to cultivate it himself. However, it’s not impossible for Master to refine the might of these two cultivation techniques. After all, Master already has a divine weapon like the Mountain and River State Painting. Master can think of a way to fuse a God Realm cultivation technique into it.”

“Master can only fuse a little bit and there’s also a time limit. It’s impossible to fuse the two permanently. Also, it will consume a lot of spirit stones.”

Lu Xiaoran thought for a moment.

“Then let’s fuse it with the Great Dao Reincarnation for a short period of time. Isn’t this thing able to control time? After that, we can reduce the time flow in the Mountain and River State Painting a little and let Lige and the others cultivate in it for a month. I’ll make it so that only a few days go by in the real life.”

This could at least help them increase their cultivation quickly.

It couldn’t be helped. The hot shots were all rapidly increasing their cultivations. Not to mention their cultivation levels, Yun Lige and the others still had to chase after the hot shots and set up traps before fighting them.

In comparison, they had more work to be done and less time to cultivate.

He had to think of a way to increase their strength faster.

Most importantly, only then would his own cultivation increase faster.

He was indeed a genius.

“I wonder if Lige and the others have completed the mission. Wang Cai, use Soul Guidance.”

“Alright.”

Wang Cai used Soul Guidance. This technique was very useful. No matter where the disciples were, they would be able to sense Lu Xiaoran and approach him. It was like a natural big magnetic field.

After settling all of this, Lu Xiaoran finally went to rest for a moment.

After working for two days in a row, he felt as if his body had been hollowed out.

…

At the same time, two beautiful figures also quietly arrived at the foot of the mountain.

“Demon Venerable, I didn’t expect this Fang Aotian to be so powerful. Even you accidentally fell into his hands and almost died.”

“Every generation has its geniuses. Perhaps, my era has already passed.”

“Demon Venerable, don’t be discouraged. I think this Fang Aotian was just lucky.”

“Although he’s only a first level King Realm martial artist, do you really think that it was a fluke for him to be able to defeat me by crossing two realm levels?”

“But didn’t he rely on a Martial Monarch Realm cultivation technique to hinder Demon Venerable’s movements? He even detonated his Martial Monarch Realm weapon to severely injure you! If not for that, he wouldn’t be your match at all.”

“You Lan, remember, don’t find excuses for yourself. Because sometimes, luck is also a part of strength. Moreover, not to mention you, even I might not have the courage to detonate a Martial Monarch Realm weapon.”

“This…”

You Lan was already speechless. Demon Venerable was right.

A Martial Monarch Realm weapon was not something one would easily detonate. This courage was not something an ordinary person was capable of.

First, you had to have a Martial Monarch Realm weapon. Then, you had to be willing to detonate this rare and extremely rare weapon.

In any case, if she obtained a Martial Monarch Realm weapon, she might not be willing to detonate it even if she died.

“Then, Demon Venerable, what’s our next step?”

“Retreat.”

“But we’ve already sacrificed so many disciples. Are they going to sacrifice for nothing?”

“That’s also something that can’t be helped. If we continue fighting, it will only cause more damage to our holy Demon Sect. Moreover, there’s still the huge threat of the Great Zhou Imperial Family. We can’t let our guard down.”

After a pause, the Demon Venerable continued,

“However, this might be a good thing. That Fang Aotian is too arrogant and has his eyes on the top of his head. He doesn’t care about anyone. Currently, he has already begun to recruit troops and gather armies, absorbing the surrounding sects to prepare to establish another empire. With such an action, the Great Zhou will definitely not sit idly by. At that time, when the two sides fight to the death, we can sit idly by and reap the spoils later.”

“Demon Venerable is wise.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the two of them suddenly stopped.

This was because they realized that they seemed to have lost their way.

“Demon Venerable, could there be an ambush?”

You Lan’s expression became somewhat solemn, and the Demon Venerable shook her head slightly.

“No, if there was an ambush, the other party would have long attacked us. Moreover, you and I came out to relax secretly this time. No third person knows. Who would have come in advance to set up an ambush?”

“Then what’s going on here?”

“There should be some powerful existence cultivating here. There are many capable people on the continent. The Great Zhou isn’t the only one that’s powerful.”

“Then what should we do?”

Without answering her subordinate, the Demon Venerable swept her gaze around and cupped her hands.

“Junior Ling Xinyue accidentally entered Senior’s seclusion ground and did not mean to offend you. Senior, please be magnanimous and open the illusion formation to let us out.”

This voice contained a large amount of spirit energy that spread far.

Lu Xiaoran, who was originally resting with his eyes closed on the mountaintop, suddenly opened his eyes.

“Ling Xinyue, is she the illegitimate daughter of the previous owner?”

However, when he used the Trinity True Eyes to look, his pupils suddenly constricted.

“Isn’t this… her?”

Lu Xiaoran did not expect the person below to be none other than the Demon Sect’s Demon Venerable.

Previously, the two of them had exchanged blows. When they were chasing after Elder Netherworld, one of her clones had been shattered by him.

He did not expect her to appear at the foot of his mountain.

She was definitely not the illegitimate daughter of the previous owner. She had probably barged in by accident.

Should he kill her?

Lu Xiaoran quietly took out the God Realm iron rod, the Mountain God Pillar, and wondered if he should use his rod on her.

After all, she was currently severely injured and could only unleash her cultivation at the King Realm.

However, Lu Xiaoran quickly thought of a problem. If he used his rod to kill her, wouldn’t he let Fang Aotian advance?

Fang Aotian was currently recruiting and preparing to establish his own sect.

At that time, he would definitely be a huge threat to the Great Zhou Empire and Lu Xiaoran.

At this moment, it was better not to kill the Demon Venerable. After all, the enemy of an enemy was a friend.

Lu Xiaoran’s eyes rolled and the corner of his mouth curled up.

“Perfect. Since you’re here, I’ll make use of you.”

Thinking of this, he silently retracted his rod and walked down the mountain.

As for the Demon Venerable, after shouting a few times, no one responded. She could not help but feel somewhat helpless.

“Looks like there’s no one. In that case, there’s nothing we can do.”

Taking a deep breath, her eyes suddenly turned blood red.

That was a mark that would only appear when she used her demon technique.

As soon as the demon technique appeared, the surrounding flowers and trees instantly withered. The spirit energy in the air was constantly absorbed by her before transforming into a cold and dark power.

“Open!”

After a shout, dark power surged crazily, shaking the entire valley.

The corners of You Lan’s mouth curled up.

With Demon Venerable making a move, no matter how powerful the illusion formation was, it was still nothing but mud in the hands of a child.

It was simply not enough!
