Reforging the Vajra Ring
"Damn it, who's behind him?" Jiang Yun's expression was very displeased.
If this matter goes wrong, the Jiang Family's reputation, which has been built up over hundreds of thousands of years, could be severely damaged.
"Keep a close watch on Crane Courtyard! We must find out who is in contact with them! I need to know how they are communicating with the outside world!" Jiang Yun ordered immediately, his face full of anger.
"What about resources?"
"Give him over 100,000 jin of Source first to keep him calm. Don't give it all at once, give it in installments!" Jiang Yun's eyes were somewhat cold. "That kid has the Primordial Sacred Body. He must have advanced to the Dao Palace First Heaven with the help of the previous 10 million jin of Source. Next, give him jin of Source. After he completes his cultivation, keep him in suspense for another month before giving him the resources!"
"During this period, mobilize all available resources to thoroughly investigate this person's background!"
"Yes!"
All the powerful beings and those on the verge of becoming powerful were mobilized at once.
Meanwhile, inside the Crane Courtyard.
"Is it really okay to keep dragging this out? What if the Jiang Family comes with Supreme Emperor Weapon? You won't be able to withstand it!" Ye Fan held the ten jin of Source he had just acquired, his eyes still showing some worry.
"What's there to be afraid of!" Zhou Tong said calmly. "Besides, the Supreme Emperor Weapon cannot be used lightly. That thing is meant to suppress the Jiang Family's foundation. How could it possibly be used for the sake of two mere cultivators like us? As for powerful figures taking action... that's fine too. At worst, we can take them with us to Flying Immortal!"
In the past few months, Zhou Tong has thoroughly stabilized his Dragon Transformation Third Transformation Realm, and has even made some progress. If he so desires, he can forcibly break through his realm at any time, triggering Heavenly Tribulation to forcefully advance to the fourth stage of the Dragon Transformation.
If the Jiang Family dares to make a move, Zhou Tong wouldn't mind putting on a grand performance of Flying Immortal here!
Of course, if the Jiang Family hadn't intervened, Zhou Tong still wouldn't have been willing to force his cultivation level up in this way.
His preferred method of breakthrough is to let the water overflow naturally, to gradually understand it on his own, and to break through the realm naturally when a certain level is reached, without having to force it.
"Don't think about it too much, just focus on your cultivation!" Zhou Tong said calmly. "The Jiang Family here is quite a good Blessed Lands, and it's safe..."
"They've been monitoring this place the whole time, how can it be considered safe?" Ye Fan's face darkened.
"That's because you haven't seen the real situation in the Northern Region. Otherwise, you would know that the Northern Region is actually the most chaotic. Finding such a good place to cultivate is extremely difficult!" Zhou Tong rolled his eyes at Ye Fan. The cultivation environment provided by the Jiang Family is something that many people would not even dream of. And you are still complaining about this and that.
"But... what if the Jiang Family is unwilling to provide those resources?" Ye Fan continued to ask. "What if the Jiang Family keeps us imprisoned here? Even if I want to break through to the Four Extremities Realm, I certainly can't do so here. According to you, that curse can only be broken inside the Forbidden Zone."
"According to my calculations, the Jiang Family will only provide you with a million jin of Source at most. They wouldn't just hand over tens of millions of jin of Source of resources to you for no reason!" Zhou Tong said calmly. "However, this amount of resources is also the amount I promised you before..."
Zhou Tong glanced at Ye Fan.
What a joke! I'm not your babysitter. If you want resources, bring something in exchange!
This million- jin of Source resource was obtained by you in exchange for a Root of Profound Yellow Mother Qi.
"If you want the remaining ten jin of Source, go and collect the debt from the Jiang Family!"
"As for their imprisonment of us... hehe, for now, as long as the Jiang Family doesn't use their Supreme Emperor Weapon or Jiang Family deepest resources, they can't trap me. Don't worry about it."
As Zhou Tong spoke, he gestured for Ye Fan to focus on his cultivation, and then he himself went into his secret chamber to cultivate in seclusion.
After entering his meditation chamber, Zhou Tong also fell into deep thought.
"The Jiang Family certainly wouldn't want to hand over ten jin of Source of Yuanping to Ye Fan for cultivation, which is almost equivalent to 5%-10% of the Jiang Family's annual income..." Zhou Tong thought to himself. "Moreover, there is no doubt that Jiang Yun and the others are now searching for me with all their might and doing everything they can to gather all my information."
"What I did in the Holy City has definitely caught their attention. Leaving aside the sources, the two Immortal Divine Medicine and the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Sword alone are of immense value. The Jiang Family will absolutely not give them up..."
"Hmm, even considering my relationship with Jiang Taixu, there's the peerless secret technique like the Nine Secrets!!"
"But Jiang Taixu is still with his wife at this time and hasn't returned to the Jiang Family. He's setting me up!"
Zhou Tong was also somewhat helpless. Jiang Taixu had given him the token out of good intentions, but unfortunately, he had run into trouble, which led to the current strained relationship with the Jiang Family.
"However, the world is bustling with activity all for profit... Jiang Family, if you really want to court death, then don't blame me!" Zhou Tong's eyes flashed as he looked at the Phoenix Spirit Body within his Ten Cave Heaven Divine Rings.
"However, I can still refine this Vajra Ring!" Zhou Tong casually waved his hand, and the Vajra Ring, made of Eternal Blue Gold, appeared in his palm.
Ancient patterns are imprinted on the Vajra Ring, like Star Scripture in the sky, shining with divine brilliance.
"Although the Thunder Emperor Treasure Technique, the Grass Character Sword Art, the Kirin Treasure Art, and the Immortal Phoenix Treasure Art have all been imprinted on it, their power is still somewhat insufficient! I can utilize the power of the Immortal Fire within the Phoenix Spirit Body, which might be able to delay the time when my Phoenix Spirit Body erupts out of control..."
"I'll use the weapon-refining secrets from the Hengyu Scripture to further temper it!" With a thought, Zhou Tong immediately activated the secrets from the Hengyu Scripture and applied them to his Phoenix Spirit Body.
The Immortal Fire that had been relentlessly scorching the Phoenix Spirit Body and consciousness suddenly diverted a sliver of its energy.
Suddenly—
A small flame flickered and fell from the Phoenix Spirit Body, dazzling like divine light, exceptionally intense, and faintly, Phoenix Cry could be heard.
"It drew out a rune from a Immortal Fire, which is equivalent to the True Immortal Realm using my hand to refine a weapon. The quality of this Vajra Ring can increase dramatically!"
Zhou Tong's face lit up with joy. He continuously formed hand seals, using the weapon-refining secrets from the "Hengyu Scripture" to create a crimson wave of flames that surged forward, merging with the Immortal Fire and spreading towards the Vajra Ring.
This is a secret weapon-refining technique from the "Hengyu Scripture," which excels at utilizing external firepower. When Hengyu the Great forged the Hengyu Furnace, he used this very technique.
"Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!"...
In an instant, the sound of hammering iron rang out, and the azure Vajra Ring was burned red by the Immortal Fire, with runes imprinted on it, transforming into innate Heavenly Deity patterns.
Especially after a rune was imprinted on the Immortal Fire, the countless runes belonging to the Thunder Emperor Treasure Technique, the Grass Character Sword Art, the Kirin Treasure Art, and the Immortal Phoenix Treasure Art on the entire Vajra Ring slowly dispersed, eventually transforming into countless lightning bolts, sword lights, purple clouds, and flames roaring and surging.
The Vajra Ring, which was originally glowing red from the heat, was slowly covered by these four patterns.
In an instant, within the Vajra Ring, lightning flashed, flames soared into the sky, purple clouds rose, and sword energy reached the heavens.
However, all the power was manifested within the Vajra Ring, making the entire Vajra Ring incomparably brilliant.
For a whole month, Zhou Tong continuously refined the Vajra Ring, making it even stronger.
Finally, the flames died down, and the Vajra Ring returned to its original azure color, as brilliant as the Star Scripture, exquisite and beautiful, with Eternal Blue Gold flowing around it, like the most perfect and outstanding work of art from heaven.
"Sizzle!"
With a flash of light, Zhou Tong unleashed the Vajra Ring, causing the heavens and earth to tremble violently, with lightning Leiming.
"Buzz!!"
However, in the next instant, without Zhou Tong's control, it actually withdrew its divine power and quietly floated back to Zhou Tong's side.
This unexpected turn of events startled Zhou Tong.
