The Metal Fragment

Zhang Xingfeng looked at the Heavenly Emperor and the Azure Emperor, whose faces had turned completely black, and seemed quite puzzled. He asked, "Senior Azure Emperor, what's wrong with Senior Heavenly Emperor? Fengyuan Gate and Tianlong Sect are super powers in the Immortal Realm. Don't they even have this much?"

The Azure Emperor tried to twitch his stiff muscles a few times and said, "Well, this... this is actually... these things are very precious. Our Fengyuan Gate and Tianlong Sect have accumulated quite a lot of materials over the past 100 million years. Among the thirty-six items you mentioned earlier, Xingfeng, our sect has quite a few!"

Zhang Xingfeng stared wide-eyed in astonishment. "Ah! You don't have any? How is that possible?" Zhang Xingfeng looked very disbelieving.

The Azure Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor were deeply ashamed, realizing they were unworthy of being supreme beings in the Immortal Realm, but they could only nod helplessly.

Zhang Xingfeng blinked a few times, glanced at the Azure Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor, and slowly said, "I see... This makes things difficult. After all, there's no room for error in forging divine artifacts. Some materials are essential. Well, show me the materials you have, and I'll decide how many divine artifacts can be forged based on the quantities you provide!"

Zhang Xingfeng let out a long sigh and continued, "Well, also, what I just mentioned were some precious materials, but refining divine artifacts isn't just about those materials. There are also some less precious materials that are needed, and I'll mention those as well!"

The Azure Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor's eyes widened in shock. It wasn't that precious! They didn't believe Zhang Xingfeng's words; who knew what Zhang Xingfeng's definition of precious was? But they could only listen.

Zhang Xingfeng glanced at the expressions of the Azure Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor. On the surface, they remained serious, but inwardly he couldn't help but smile smugly.

In the past, Zhang Xingfeng held figures like the Azure Emperor and Tian Di in high esteem, looking up to these extraordinary individuals. However, after his battle with the Black Sun Ancestor, Zhang Xingfeng's mindset changed. He now believed that he was at least capable of communicating on equal footing with Immortal Emperor -level expert.

Then, what truly changed Zhang Xingfeng was his battle with the two extraordinary masters, Zi Yan and Zi Wei!

Back then, when the fifth move of the "Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art" was unleashed, Zhang Xingfeng, whose mind was filled with mysterious power, even felt that the Great Emperor Ziwei was nothing more than a small shrimp under his feet. He looked down on Ziwei, and he even felt Ziwei trembling in front of him! Although he understood that Ziwei was trembling because of that mysterious energy, Zhang Xingfeng had looked down on him before, so now Zhang Xingfeng no longer looked up to the three emperors of the Immortal Realm. He was now able to treat them with a more ordinary mindset.

Therefore, Zhang Xingfeng can easily manipulate the Azure Emperor and the Immortal Emperor. Of course, this does not mean that he is smarter than the Azure Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor, but because the Azure Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor need his help!

"These materials may be precious in the Cultivation World, but they're nothing special in the immortal realm. Let me tell you... the Mitian Essence, Yellow Flower Grass, Zhi Ma, Cao Ji..." Zhang Xingfeng spoke eloquently, these were merely auxiliary materials for refining immortal pills. They were only considered relatively rare in the immortal realm, but for the two Immortal Emperors, they posed no difficulty whatsoever.

As soon as Zhang Xingfeng finished speaking, the Heavenly Emperor immediately said, "No problem. There are plenty of these materials in the Immortal Realm. Just tell me how much you need, Xingfeng."

Zhang Xingfeng smiled and nodded, then said, "I will write a list of these materials for the two seniors. Senior Azure Emperor and Heavenly Emperor Tiandi, please find out how many of the thirty-six precious materials I mentioned at the beginning are available. Of course, I will refine the number of divine artifacts according to the amount of materials." As he spoke, Zhang Xingfeng took out a Jade Slip and began to write the material list.

The Azure Emperor took the list, and the two of them were puzzled when they looked at it! The amount of materials was not small, but compared with the divine artifact, it was nothing!

The Azure Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor exchanged wry smiles, feeling utterly helpless. They didn't know the materials needed to forge the divine artifact, but they knew Zhang Xingfeng was definitely using this opportunity to extort money; they just didn't know exactly how much Zhang Xingfeng was trying to extort.

Zhang Xingfeng chuckled smugly to himself, "How many divine artifacts I can forge is entirely up to me. If I have enough materials to forge a thousand divine artifacts, I'll say I can forge a hundred, hehe!"

Zhang Xingfeng's facial expression remained unchanged.

"By the way, Senior Azure Emperor, I heard that there is a place in Fengyuan Gate that has the most immortal books in the immortal realm, called something like... something like 'Cangchu Pavilion'. I wonder if Xingfeng could go in and take a look?" Zhang Xingfeng said with a smile.

What does the Tianxin Sect lack to grow stronger?

Immortal Technique!

Especially the basic immortal techniques. Tianxin Sect is preparing to lay the foundation in the Cultivation World, but the immortals of the Tianxin Sect do not have immortal techniques. How can they cultivate? Can they just absorb them slowly? If so, the speed will be much slower.

Zhang Xingfeng's "Six Revolutions Profound Body Art" can only be cultivated by rare geniuses whose innate Innate Primordial Qi is solid. There is not a single such person in the entire Tianxin Sect. Zhang Xingfeng's power is the fusion of Buddha Primordial Energy and True Primordial Energy, which is transformed into Limitless Power. Therefore, Zhang Xingfeng wants to take this opportunity to go to the "Library Pavilion" and get more immortal techniques to take back so that the disciples of the Tianxin Sect can cultivate them more.

Upon hearing this, the Azure Emperor immediately and generously replied, "Is that so? Of course you can go in. Here's the arrangement: you can choose any book from the first floor of the Library Pavilion, ten books from the second floor, and only one book from the third floor. As for the fourth to sixth floors, those are places only disciples of my Fengyuan Gate can enter, so..."

Zhang Xingfeng immediately stood up happily and said tactfully, "Ah, it's nothing, it's nothing. It's okay if I don't go to the third floor. I'm just playing around. Now you two seniors should find more materials, and I'll go to the Library Pavilion. By the way, Senior Azure Emperor, please give me a token!"

The Azure Emperor smiled and stood up. A flash of light appeared in his hand, revealing a Jade Slip. The Azure Emperor inscribed some instructions inside.

Zhang Xingfeng took the Jade Slip and then vanished in a flash...

The Azure Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor smiled at each other and began to stroll in the courtyard.

The Azure Emperor's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile, and he said, "Hehe, it seems that this Zhang Xingfeng is not so easy to deal with. He's really too cunning!"

The Heavenly Emperor agreed, saying, "Indeed, the thirty-six materials mentioned are all rare treasures. However, I still have quite a lot of the Jianyu Essence. That was when I went to the far west of the Immortal Realm last time. There was a mountain range of Jianyu Stone that was hundreds of thousands of miles long. I entered its core and obtained a lot of the Jianyu Essence. I don't have much of the other things."

The Azure Emperor thought for a moment and said, "It seems I still have quite a bit of the Herb Rain left over from last year. My disciple obtained it from the Soul Ink Sea on a planet in the Cultivation World. Alright, we should also go to the sect's warehouse to look for it. By the way, we can't take it all out this time. We'll take out half first, and we can't give that half to Zhang Xingfeng all at once. We have to negotiate with him slowly. Otherwise, this kid will devour so many of our good things! He won't feel embarrassed at all."

The Heavenly Emperor nodded and said, "Hmph, he's just a little kid. Do you think he'll fool the two of us? Don't worry, hehe... I'm off..." Then the Heavenly Emperor disappeared, heading towards the Tianlong Sect's mountain gate.

The Azure Emperor also flashed away, heading towards the treasure's location.

Zhang Xingfeng's Divine Sense had already detected the location of the Library Pavilion. In a flash, he was already outside the pavilion. Zhang Xingfeng's Divine Sense entered the Jade Slip in his hand, instantly scanning everything. After learning the contents written by the Azure Emperor, he couldn't help but curse inwardly, "It seems the Azure Emperor has been frightened by me. He even specifically told the people in the Library Pavilion that I can read freely on the first floor, ten items on the second, and ten more on the third! Hmm, he really is stingy! But the things on the fourth to sixth floors must be very valuable, otherwise why wouldn't they even allow me to take a look? Heh, but my main purpose in coming here this time is for that basic immortal technique!"

This time, Zhang Xingfeng's judgment was wrong.

The first three floors of the Library Pavilion contain external Cultivation Method collected by Fengyuan Gate from various channels, while the fourth to sixth floors contain Fengyuan Gate's own Cultivation Method. That's why the Azure Emperor didn't allow Zhang Xingfeng to enter the fourth floor.

However, many of the manuals on the first to third floors are the prized possessions of third-tier forces, and even a considerable number of manuals from the Purple Cloud Realm have been collected. Of course, there are also places within the Purple Cloud Realm that serve the same purpose as the Library Pavilion.

The Library Pavilion has six floors, simple and elegant. Only one middle-aged man is in charge of the entire building. At this moment, the middle-aged man is casually strolling on the fifth floor. Suddenly, he seems to notice someone outside the library and immediately comes out...

"Who are you? This is the restricted area of my Fengyuan Gate. Outsiders are not allowed to enter!" The middle-aged man shouted as soon as he saw Zhang Xingfeng.

Zhang Xingfeng smiled and tossed the Jade Slip in front of the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man took the Jade Slip, scanned it with his Divine Sense, and immediately relaxed. He then turned around and made more than a hundred hand seals in succession. Zhang Xingfeng was shocked to see that the speed of the hand seals was faster than his own. Upon closer inspection with his Divine Sense, he realized that the middle-aged man had actually reached the early stage of the Immortal Emperor.

"Incredible! Incredible! To encounter such a master even in this place! No wonder we were so confident in leaving only one person to guard this place!" Zhang Xingfeng exclaimed inwardly.

The middle-aged man turned around, looked at Zhang Xingfeng, and said coldly, "I have already set up restrictions on all three floors. You can look around the first floor without any problem. Remember, on the second floor, you can only look at ten Jade Slip, and on the third floor, you can only look at one Jade Slip. If you look at too many, the restrictions I set will automatically activate. Even if the restrictions can't harm you, they will still let the entire Fengyuan Gate find you." After saying that, the middle-aged man stopped paying attention to Zhang Xingfeng and went to the fifth floor of the pavilion to continue his leisurely stroll.

Zhang Xingfeng grinned and said, "Not bad, that's unique, I like it!" Then Zhang Xingfeng strode into the pavilion.

Sweep!

Leave no one alive!

With the speed and agility of a whirlwind, Zhang Xingfeng swept through all the basic immortal techniques on the first floor and absorbed them into his mind. Fortunately, there were many Jade Slip in Zhang Xingfeng's universe, which allowed him to continuously memorize them.

"Awesome! Over a thousand basic immortal techniques! Haha, I bet even ordinary third-tier sects don't have as many basic immortal techniques as I have now!" Zhang Xingfeng thought smugly. He was right; these immortal techniques were Fengyuan Gate from countless sects. Although most techniques were common to all sects, each sect had nearly a thousand basic immortal techniques, but there were also quite a few newly created within their sects.

Zhang Xingfeng moved lightly, humming a little tune as he entered the second level.

"Sigh, there have been over a hundred Jade Slip here, but they only allow me to see ten. They're really stingy!" Zhang Xingfeng sighed inwardly. He had no idea how much effort Fengyuan Gate had put into collecting these precious manuals from the second level. Giving him ten records was already quite generous!

After a cup of tea, Zhang Xingfeng glanced longingly at the other Jade Slip on the second floor, thinking to himself, "Damn it, am I, Zhang Xingfeng, really that untrustworthy? Humph, I'll go to the third floor!"

Upon entering the third floor, Zhang Xingfeng's eyes narrowed slightly!

On the third floor, there were ten golden pillars, emitting a dazzling golden light. On each pillar was a jade disc, clearly carved from jade and imbued with immortal energy, making them top-tier treasures. Inside each jade disc lay a Jade Slip.

Ten Jade Slip! Which one should we choose?

Zhang Xingfeng understood from the arrangement that these ten Jade Slip were all extraordinary treasures, but which one to choose? Wasn't this like having to choose between two fish and one bear's paw? At least choosing between fish and bear's paw meant choosing one out of two, but choosing one out of ten was much more difficult!

What frustrated Zhang Xingfeng the most was that he had no idea which of the ten Jade Slip contained the best Internal Cultivation technique!

So how should we choose?

"Fine, this is fine!" Zhang Xingfeng casually took out the Jade Slip from the jade disc on the golden pillar closest to him and entered it with his Divine Sense...

The Six Extremes Immortal Art!

The Six Extremes Immortal Art follow the path of extremes: Fire Attribute practitioners cultivate Fire Attribute Cultivation Method, water attribute practitioners cultivate water attribute Cultivation Method, lightning attribute practitioners cultivate lightning attribute Cultivation Method, metal attribute practitioners cultivate metal attribute Cultivation Method, wood attribute practitioners cultivate wood attribute Cultivation Method, and earth attribute practitioners cultivate earth attribute Cultivation Method! The Immortal Techniques follow the path of specialization; cultivate one path, and you will understand all paths.

After reading it for a while, Zhang Xingfeng felt that this "Six Extremes Immortal Art" was indeed extraordinary and quite interesting. For example, since he, Zhang Xingfeng, was of the Fire Attribute, he should specialize in cultivating the Fire Attribute!

"Oh dear, that lousy immortal technique is considered a treasure? What a joke! It's a pity that no one recognizes the treasure I have!" A sigh came from behind Zhang Xingfeng.

Zhang Xingfeng was shocked and turned around abruptly. Behind him was an old man dressed entirely in black, holding a Metal Fragment was neither gold nor silver, but had a metallic sheen.

Zhang Xingfeng hadn't detected the person behind him with his Divine Sense earlier, but now he carefully observed again with his Divine Sense, and surprisingly... he still couldn't find him the second time. If Zhang Xingfeng had his eyes closed, he might even think that he was the only person on this third level, with nothing but thin air in front of him, but the old man was clearly standing in front of him.

"Who exactly is this old man?" Zhang Xingfeng suddenly felt that the old man was unfathomable!
