Seeing that Chen Changming, an eighth-layer Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, was unconcerned, Huang Kui felt reassured as well. He spread his hands toward the Seven Absolutes Poison Sect elder and smiled. "Since Fellow Daoist Black Steed has no objections, I shall do as you arrange."
"Good. Both of you, come with me."
The elder was overjoyed.
Although the Seven Absolutes Poison Sect had sent invitations to quite a few people for this treasure refinement, few had actually come—especially eighth-layer Nascent Soul Realm cultivators.
He led Chen Changming and Huang Kui out of the council hall and all the way to the rear mountain.
There were many secluded courtyards in the rear mountain.
The elder cupped his hands and said with a courteous smile, "Fellow Daoists, this is where the Seven Absolutes Poison Sect receives outside guests. There are plenty of vacant courtyards. Please choose whichever ones you like."
"Very well, thank you for the trouble."
Huang Kui thanked him.
After that, the two each selected a courtyard and settled in.
An hour later.
The elder delivered a treasure-refining art for them to familiarize themselves with as soon as possible.
"Fellow Daoist, may I ask what Spirit Treasure this is meant to refine?"
Chen Changming accepted the treasure-refining art and asked without giving anything away.
"This..."
The elder hesitated, looking somewhat embarrassed. "My status is lowly, and I do not know what Spirit Treasure the Sect Master and the others are refining either."
"I see."
Chen Changming nodded helplessly.
This Seven Absolutes Poison Sect elder did not appear to be lying.
Even this elder knew very little about the Spirit Treasure being refined within the sect, which showed just how extraordinary and important this treasure refinement was.
Perhaps it was a vicious Spirit Treasure no less powerful than the Seven Absolutes
