Song Changsheng was a little confused by her look. Although he thought he was a bit handsome, he didn't think it would make people look away.

Seeing that the other party didn't seem to hear his question, he couldn't help but speak louder and said, "Do you have any requirements on time, style, etc.?"

The woman finally withdrew her gaze and said calmly, "I will come and get it in half a year."

After saying that, the woman actually drifted away directly. Song Changsheng quickly chased her out, but there was no trace of her on the spacious street. She couldn't help but say, "What a weirdo."

This is not the first time that he has helped people refine weapons, but generally speaking, there are various requirements. This one is better, there are no requirements at all, and he can be free to express himself.

Moreover, all orders require a deposit first. This guy doesn't follow the rules and pays the full price directly, which is incredibly generous.

Shaking his head and returning to the grocery store, he picked up the Universe Bag again and began to check the materials prepared inside. He first took out a piece of green and white jade.

This jade is more than a foot long and two inches thick. It is cold and heavy to the touch. It has layers of Water Flower Pattern on the surface. It is really beautiful.

This is the main refining material prepared by that "casual" senior, Second Tier Peak-Grade's [Water Radiance Green Jade], not to mention refining Second-Tier Low-Grade Law Artifact, even Second Tier Peak-Grade is suitable.

The rest of the auxiliary materials are also first-rate, at least at the Second-Tier High Grade level.

"If this fails, all the work done before will be in vain. Fortunately, we have half a year." Song Changsheng shook his head with a wry smile, and then asked Song Xiantu to give orders and no longer accept new orders during this period.

In the next six months, he will devote all his energy to this Law Artifact.

With the materials, Song Changsheng entered Artifact Forging Room.

After adjusting his condition, he took out a large cauldron. This large cauldron was the highest-level weapon refining cauldron in the grocery store.

It is a very long process to activate Earth Fire, burn the cauldron bright red, throw the auxiliary materials into it in a specific order, and refine it into Spirit Liquid.

Taking advantage of the time of refining Spirit Liquid, he took out the piece of [Water Radiance Green Jade], condensed the power of Divine Sense into a knife, and landed on the jade like a carving knife.

The jade fragments peeled off little by little, falling on his body and on the cold floor like snowflakes falling in winter.

Soon, the long jade stone turned into a "stick". Song Changsheng took a short rest and recovered some Divine Sense power that consumed a lot of money. Then it condensed into a knife again and began to hollow out.

This step is several times more difficult than before. He must be cautious and strive to do his best!

"That Casual Senior gave me such a generous reward, so I have to do my best. This Law Artifact will be my most perfect work so far!" Song Changsheng said in his heart.

In a matter of days, the original jade stone had transformed into the shape of Flute. At this point, the first step has been completed.

At this time, the Spirit Liquid in the cauldron was almost refined. He put Jade Flute into it, burning the flames even more fiercely...

The land of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, Nameless.

Among the vast mountains and forests, sword rays were raging, and angry roars could be heard from time to time.

"Rumble"

Along with the ground shaking, countless trees fell to the ground, making a series of sounds, and then, Demon Beast roared even more angrily.

In the center of the battle group, a slender figure stood with a sword on the crown of an ancient tree. His clothes were as white as snow, and his clothes were hunting. His black hair was fluttering in the wind, looking free and unrestrained, as graceful as an immortal.

But the strange thing is that most swordsmen hold swords in their right hands, while he holds his left hand. The sleeve on his right side is empty and swinging in the wind. It turns out to be One-Armed Swordsman!

And in front of him was a huge beast.

Its torso is shaped like a leopard, but its whole body is covered with scales, which glow dimly in the sun. Its cheeks are covered with black hair, and its head Dujiao looks extremely weird.

This Demon Beast is called "Zheng Beast" and is at the Second Tier Mid-Grade level. It is said that it has a trace of the blood of the ancient beast "Zie", and it is generally a dominant existence.

But today, it has encountered the biggest crisis since its birth. Now, its scales are in tatters and full of sword marks.

The beautiful tail was broken and was bleeding profusely. It was once the thing it was most proud of.

It maintains an aggressive state and stares coldly at the figure standing on the canopy of the tree. It wants to kill this uninvited guest who breaks into its territory!

"Roar——"

Zheng Beast let out a thunderous roar. The powerful sound waves turned the surrounding leaves into powder, the tree trunks into fragments, and the stones into powder, making the earth tremble.

The ancient tree at the feet of One-Armed Swordsman was not affected. He stared at Zheng Beast coldly, as if he was watching a monkey performing hard.

"Qiang"

The moment Zheng Beast's attack ended, the sword in One-Armed Swordsman's hand finally moved. It let out a high-pitched Jian Ming sound and shot out a white sword light several feet long.

This sword had been gathering momentum for a long time, and Zheng Beast tried his best but could not resist it. In the end, he had to watch it cut off his one-foot-long Dujiao.

"Ouch~"

Dujiao was its lifeblood. Now that it was beheaded, Zheng Beast let out a cry and fell to the ground. There was a trace of fear in its eyes. It had never encountered such a terrifying opponent.

At this time, the swordsman in white floated down with a long sword in his hand. He looked at Zheng Beast with a calm expression, and finally said his first words since the battle, "Please remember that the person who kills you is Xu Yunhe!"

After that, he raised the long sword in his hand and inserted it directly into Zheng Beast's head. The sharp Sword Qi smashed its Sea of Consciousness to pieces in an instant.

Zheng Beast's eyes lost their sparkle, and eventually they lost their life.

Xu Yunhe used the fastest speed to remove the material from Zheng Beast's body, cut another large piece of flesh, and then floated away with the sword.

And he also quietly counted a number in his heart. "The sixth one."

Yes, this is the sixth Second-Tier Demonic Beast he has killed since entering Hundred Thousand Great Mountains. The previous ones were all Second-Tier Low-Grade. This is the only Second Tier Mid-Grade, but it is definitely not the last one.

When most Human Cultivator mentioned Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, they were as fearful as a tiger, but in Xu Yunhe's eyes, this was an excellent place for cultivation.

Three years ago, he broke through Foundation Establishment and understood Sword Intent. In order to grow up as quickly as possible, he decided to go from Ling Province to Bianzhou to experience.

In the end, he chose Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, an area that Human Race had not yet conquered. There were not only Third-Tier Great Demons comparable to the Purple Mansions, but also many Second-Tier Demonic Beasts.

There is a saying circulating in Bianzhou that it is Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, which refers to one hundred thousand Spirit Mountains, and each Spirit Mountain has a Second-Tier Demonic Beast.

This is naturally an exaggeration, but the truth may not be far off. Second-level Demon Beast is not uncommon among the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.

Just when Xu Yunhe was about to find the next target, a shocking roar caught his attention, and his face instantly became solemn.

"It's targeting it again." Xu Yunhe frowned slightly. He was all too familiar with this roaring sound. When he first joined Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, he killed a Emerald-Eyed Golden Crystal Beast, but he didn't expect it to be someone with a background.

It was Bloodline Descendant, a Third-Tier Great Demon, and it was a relatively close one. Since then, Xu Yunhe has been hunted by that Third-Tier Great Demon.

Relying on his excellent Concealment Technique, he had several near misses, but escaping like this was not an option. Sooner or later, there would be a day when there would be no escape and no avoidance.

"Let's go to Sunset City to avoid the limelight for a while. I heard that Great City Lord's birthday is coming soon and it should be very lively." Xu Yunhe thought about it briefly and finally decided to go first.

It's true that a swordsman would rather break than bend, but if you know that you are no opponent and go up to confront someone head-on, that's not integrity, it's being aggressive.

He was alone, with no arrogant elders or big Fortune around. He died here without even a body collector, so he had better save himself first.

Thinking of this, Xu Yunhe suddenly turned into a sword light and headed in the direction of Sunset City...

The period of May has passed by in a hurry, and there is less than a month left before delivery. The Law Artifact refined by Song Changsheng has finally reached the most critical time.

All the auxiliary materials have been integrated into Jade Flute, and Array has also been engraved. Logically speaking, the cauldron can be produced now, but Song Changsheng feels a little unsatisfied.

Although this Law Artifact has reached the top level of Second-Tier Low-Grade and is not far away from Second Tier Mid-Grade, it still has not reached the most perfect state in his eyes.

After thinking about it, he took out a small Jade Bottle and carefully poured some off-white powder into it. The Jade Flute in the cauldron immediately sublimated again. Although it was still Second-Tier Low-Grade, it was just a hair away from Second Tier Mid-Grade.

As long as the owner makes a little effort, this Flute can complete the advancement.

"It's worth all the hard work I put into it. This is my best work so far. I'm afraid I won't be able to surpass it for a long time in the future." Song Changsheng took the refined Jade Flute in his hand and was very satisfied.

Although this Jade Flute is not of high grade, the materials used are of the same quality and it took him half a year of hard work. Even so, it still has not reached its peak.

So, he added the powder ground from [Dark Nether Crystal Essence] to it, which created its most perfect state.

His Natal Magic Tool Spirit Severing Gourd is slightly inferior to it, but it is worse than that Primal Chaos Qi, otherwise there is no comparison at all.

Song Changsheng did not name Jade Flute on his own initiative, but found a jade box to seal it up, waiting for Casual Senior to come and pick it up.

But what surprised him was that the half-year period had come and he didn't see the person coming. This made him mutter again, "If she doesn't come to pick up the goods, the order will not be completed in one day, and those Spirit Stone can't be touched."

Although he is very satisfied with the Law Artifact he refined, it does not mean that others think so too.

"The auction will be in ten days, but this is a bit difficult to handle." Song Changsheng was a little distressed. Although he had received a lot of orders before, his remuneration was only 10,000 yuan Spirit Stone.

In addition to his original savings, it is only thirteen thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones. This may be a huge fortune for an ordinary monk, but if he wants to compete with others at the auction, I am afraid it is still a little short of it.

There are definitely not a few people who covet a complete Second-Tier White Tiger Skeleton. According to his expectation, it would be appropriate to prepare 20,000 Spirit Stone.

"If she doesn't come to pick up the goods before the auction, it will be misappropriated first. At worst, she will make up for it later." Song Changsheng thought in his heart.

With only a few days left, he doesn't plan to continue taking orders and is immersed in cultivation...

Just two days before the auction started, Casual Senior finally came to the grocery store again. Song Changsheng felt relieved that the matter was finally over.

Casual Senior didn't explain why he was late, and Song Changsheng also knew enough not to ask. The other party was probably a Purple Mansion Great Cultivator, and it was not his turn to question what he was doing.

He held up the jade box with both hands and said, "Senior, you are fortunate to have lived up to your destiny."

The woman reached out and took the jade box, but did not open it. Instead, she said something that made him confused, "It is indeed similar in three points, but it is better than the previous one."

Before Song Changsheng could figure out who the other party was referring to, the other party actually disappeared out of thin air, which made him feel horrified.

Will people disappear into thin air?

Of course not, that is a method only available to the legendary "Immortal".

The woman did not disappear out of thin air, but her speed was so fast that Song Changsheng could not detect it. In other words, if the other party wanted to take his life, he would not even have time to react.

The last time I felt like this was when I heard the wisp of piano music when I heard the invitation from Great City Lord. It was the same feeling of powerlessness.

"Qinyin, Flute, has such terrifying strength..." Song Changsheng was shocked. Could it be that Great City Lord?

The next moment, he shook his head again. Great City Lord was undoubtedly a man, not a woman.

Moreover, although this Casual Senior is also very strong and can kill him in an instant, it is still inferior to Great City Lord. The two are definitely not the same person.

But who is she, why did she ask him to refine Law Artifact, and what does that sentence mean?

He suddenly felt that there seemed to be more and more secrets about Sunset City, but he had no clue at all. This feeling of being out of his control made him very uncomfortable.

He suddenly remembered the big hand behind his back again. This time he not only saw the shadow of Grandfather, but also the one Casual Senior.

But some shadows are still unclear.

"What is your purpose... exactly?" Song Changsheng was confused, and he suddenly had the urge to return to Lineage immediately.

He wanted to question his old man about what he was hiding from him!

But, he didn't do this after all.

"I will dig it out myself, for sure!" Song Changsheng clenched his fists, his eyes firm...

In the blink of an eye, it was already time for the auction to start. Early in the morning, Song Changsheng took his little follower Song Qingluo and walked in the direction of Auction House.

Just as he guessed, this was a high-profile day. Almost half of the people in Sunset City gathered here. Even though most people couldn't enter, there was still a steady stream of people gathering here.

Just to feast your eyes on...

ps: I was delayed because of something urgent.
