He suppressed his inner excitement and surprise, smiled faintly, and extended his hand: \"Please, both of you, come inside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Wen’an didn’t notice Zhang Qingjing’s thoughts and followed Huang Lingshan into the depths of Celestial Monarch Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Zhang Qingjing’s guidance, the two quickly arrived at a tasteful residence on the peak of the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After respectfully greeting them, two young children at the door served spirit tea and a spirit fruit plate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fellow Daoist Lingshan, Young Friend Wen’an, please enjoy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Qingjing spoke kindly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two accepted the tea, took a light sip, and Huang Lingshan immediately spoke: \"We have come uninvited, seeking Fellow Daoist Zhang’s help with something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Lingshan was always straightforward, never liking to beat around the bush.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Qingjing was thrilled at the news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since they had come seeking help, it meant he could inquire about Shen Wen’an’s cultivation of the Wisdom Sword depending on the situation later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fellow Daoist Lingshan, feel free to speak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already decided that as long as what Huang Lingshan asked wasn’t too excessive, he could agree on behalf of Celestial Monarch Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could thus complete the Soul-Slaying Sword secret skill, it would be a great fortune for Celestial Monarch Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Lingshan gave him a suspicious look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the Upper Three Sects, the Cyan Ruo Sword House and Celestial Monarch Mountain indeed had a better relationship than with the Yinhe Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But such relationships were only enough to sit down and have tea together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This could be seen from Zhang Qingjing’s words when they met.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet now, she found Zhang Qingjing’s attitude strangely pleasant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After some thought, Huang Lingshan suppressed her thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disciples of Celestial Monarch Mountain had a good reputation in the Cultivation Realm, rarely engaging in underhanded schemes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Years ago, I obtained the corpse of a Golden Core Demon Beast, and Fellow Daoist Zhang is a renowned Artifact Refining Master in Danzhou.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have come today seeking help from you to refine some magical artifacts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Golden Core Realm Demon Beast’s corpse?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Qingjing was also somewhat surprised at the news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Luo Yao said, Golden Core Realm Demon Beasts were difficult to kill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obtaining an intact corpse was even more challenging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing that Huang Lingshan possessed a Golden Core Realm Demon Beast’s corpse, Zhang Qingjing couldn’t help but feel a bit envious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fellow Daoist Lingshan, could you take out the demon beast’s corpse for me to see?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Qingjing quickly spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Lingshan glanced around, chose a spacious spot, and directly took out the flood dragon corpse from the storage bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the sudden appearance of the massive flood dragon corpse, a trace of disbelief flashed in Zhang Qingjing’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is a flood dragon!?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In shock, he couldn’t bother with appearances and immediately moved to examine the flood dragon corpse closely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He inexplicably felt a slight relief in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So it’s a flood dragon corpse that died eons ago. I thought Fellow Daoist Lingshan had personally slain it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flood dragons were among the more formidable species of demon beasts. If the Cyan Ruo Sword House could really slay a living Golden Core Realm flood dragon and obtain an intact demon corpse, it would be terrifying!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a pity, what a pity...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carefully inspecting the flood dragon corpse, Zhang Qingjing showed a deep expression of regret on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This flood dragon has been dead for too many years, its flesh is gone, and the spirituality in its bones and scale hide has diminished. Otherwise, it would be a top-grade material.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What kind of magical artifact does Fellow Daoist Lingshan plan to refine?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After confirming, Zhang Qingjing clasped his hands and spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Lingshan glanced at Shen Wen’an, pondered for a moment, and said: \"I am not versed in the Artifact Refining Dao. Please share what kind of magical artifact this flood dragon corpse can be refined into, Fellow Daoist Zhang.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of his specialty, Zhang Qingjing chuckled confidently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This flood dragon corpse has only bones and scale hide left, and with serious loss of spirituality, not many magical artifacts can be refined.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I estimate the entire flood dragon corpse could yield three magical robes, and as for magical artifacts... only about two weapons.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Shen Wen’an was quite incredulous: \"Such a large flood dragon corpse, and it can only yield three magical robes and two magical artifacts!?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the flood dragon corpse before them had lost its head, it was nearly a hundred yards long and as thick as two people embracing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If disassembled, the bones could form a small hill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet it could yield so little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In response to his doubt, Zhang Qingjing stroked his beard with a gentle smile: \"Young Friend, you might not be aware.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Refining magical artifacts or robes from demonic beast materials isn’t about size.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To ensure the quality of the artifacts or robes, the refining process requires concentrating most of the material’s spirituality into a small portion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take the flood dragon’s scale hide, for instance. When all concentrated into material suitable for refining magical robes, it would only measure a yard or so.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The remainder, having lost its spirituality, holds no value.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After pausing a moment, Zhang Qingjing continued: \"If it were a fresh flood dragon corpse, with little spiritual loss in the bones and scale hide, the number of magical robes and artifacts that could be refined would be thrice as many.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Wen’an realized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He truly wasn’t aware of this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My apologies, Senior, for my lack of understanding in the Artifact Refining Dao, causing you to laugh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Qingjing waved his hand with a chuckle and turned to Huang Lingshan: \"Fellow Daoist Lingshan, the numbers I mentioned were ideal scenarios.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Conservatively speaking, it might be even less.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1017,"2026-06-06T03:07:11.939Z",1,"novelbin.me","feecf994cfc1430a0a54c1dea7e9d4a9e5da860dee2a65acd4dfa7b445fab28d","crafting-an-immortal-race-with-daily-hexagrams-chapter-454","crafting-an-immortal-race-with-daily-hexagrams-chapter-452",587,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcrafting-an-immortal-race-with-daily-hexagrams-cover.jpg"]
