Three days later, Zhan Chen finally appeared on the regular passenger ship to Yanyu Island, looking at the boundless ocean in a good mood.
Recalling that three days ago, he hurried down from Meishan Mountain and arrived at the pier, he inquired about it and found out that this month's scheduled passenger ship happened to be in two days' time. He couldn't help but shout lucky.
In this way, he has a little more time to go back, and maybe he can go to Yanyue Island for a stroll. But the most urgent thing for him right now is not only to return to the clan, but also to buy a new one.
Sword weapon.
Now, my strength has reached 4,000 kilograms, and I should be able to barely use the Golden Ling Sword. Of course, if there is a better sword on Yanyue Island, that would be the best. Zhan Chen thought silently.
After a gust of sea breeze blew outside, he returned to his training room and began to practice in seclusion again. There was also a private room full of spiritual energy on this passenger ship, but it was expensive, and he had to pay a rent of 100 taels of silver per day.
Of course, this was nothing to Zhan Chen, who was already considered wealthy.
Time flew by quickly, and more than ten days passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, the passenger ship was still docking at three small islands along the route, and another group of guests were brought on board. However, Zhan Chen never got off the ship, but was immersed in his own thoughts.
Cultivation world.
Until the message came from the training room: Passengers, please note that the ship has arrived at Yanyu Island.
Zhan Chen only came out of his cultivation state, walked out of the cabin and looked forward. A huge island appeared in front of him, and he suddenly became excited: When he arrived at Yanyu Island, it was not far from Jintai Port.
So he hurriedly got off the boat, grabbed a nearby pedestrian and asked: Brother, can I ask you a question?
Just ask.
I thought about Jintai Port opposite, which ship I should take.
The boat to Jintai Port leaves every half month, but it's really unlucky for you to come because the last boat has just left.
Zhan Chen was a little frustrated. He missed the chance. It was indeed such a coincidence.
You have to wait another half month, but passenger ships are easy to spot. They are multi-story ships with dragon carvings on the ship. They will wait at the port for a day, so you should pay more attention then.
Thank you.
After Zhan Chen said goodbye to that man, in order not to miss the next ship, he rented a room in a hotel next to the port.
After all the procedures were completed, he was able to observe the Yanyue Island. The island was very large, nearly three times the size of Meishan Island. The most striking thing was a tall peak in the center of the island, but this peak was not close to Meishan Island.
There is an essential difference. According to the residents of the island, it is an extinct volcano with a history of hundreds of thousands of years. It is said that the entire Yanyue Island was formed by its eruption.
To this day, there are still crustal activities under the Yanyu Island, providing the island with sufficient geothermal energy. The island is famous for its hot springs, which provide a place for the passing warriors to visit and rest. Every year, many warriors choose to come here to soak in the hot springs.
Take a bath, because taking a bath in hot spring water can activate the meridians and strengthen the body.
Zhan Chen came to the neighborhood on the island again. It was full of houses and merchants and tourists gathered here. It was very lively. Zhan Chen thought to himself: There are still more than ten days, enough for me to find a good sword here. The people who come here are so
More, I should find a place to inquire first.
So I started wandering around the streets. There were many pedestrians walking back and forth in the streets and alleys. Some low-level martial arts cultivators were soliciting customers along the way and acting as guides for the passers-by.
No, Zhan Chen met him right away. The one who held him was a kid who was only eleven or twelve years old. He was wearing tattered clothes. His cultivation level was only the second level of a martial arts disciple, but he had a pair of
His big, shrewd eyes were still spinning.
He asked in his childish voice: Senior, do you need a guide?
Zhan Chen looked at his hungry and cold appearance, and couldn't help but think of his childhood. His eyes immediately flashed with pity, and he said: I need a guide, and it's you.
The little boy's eyes flashed with joy and he replied: Okay.
Let me ask first, what is your name.
My name is Zhang Si.
Zhang Si has such a strange name.
Because my mother gave birth to six children, and I was the fourth.
is that so
It seemed that this was a poor family with hard-luck children. Zhan Chen could not help but feel pity in his heart.
This is the fee paid to you in advance. If you can satisfy me, I will reward you with more money. As Zhan Chen spoke, he took out a piece of silver from his storage bag, which was a full 100 taels.
many.
The little boy's eyes burst with endless joy when he saw this ingot of silver. For an ordinary family, 100 taels of silver was an astronomical sum, so he hurriedly put the silver into his arms and said happily: Senior, you need
I'll take you wherever you go
Zhan Chen smiled slightly and said: I want to buy a sword, a sword for warriors. Do you know where I can find it?
Yanyue Island is so big, having such a guide will really be a lot more convenient.
There is a Yanyu Island Square City here.
Oh, there was a Fangshi. Zhan Chen was pleasantly surprised. If there was a Fangshi, it would not be difficult for him to find a good sword. So he hurriedly said: Then take me there quickly.
okay.
So Zhan Chen, led by Xiao Si, shuttled through the streets and found it not long after.
Zhan Chen looked at the criss-crossed streets and felt a little overwhelmed for a moment. The city on Yanyu Island was many times larger than what he saw in Shannan Town.
Zhang Si looked at the market and showed off proudly: Senior, this must be your first time here. Our market on Yanyu Island is very famous around here, not only the martial arts cultivators from the Beihai Islands come here often.
Even warriors from Beihai Continent often come here.
Zhan Chen nodded and entered Xinxinran. Next, Zhang Si waited for him to enter the weapons store one by one to look at it.
I have to admit that there are too many weapons stores on Yanyu Island, and there are more than one as large as the Sharp Sword Pavilion. Zhan Chen visited them one by one and wrote down the styles of the swords.
However, the most powerful of these swords are in line with the level of the Golden Ling Sword, and at most they can only achieve the effect of increasing the attack power of Zhenqi by nearly five levels.
After seeing so many swords, Zhan Chen gradually had a question in his mind, why is the limit of these swords' ability to increase the Qi level to five levels? Can't it be increased to one level? There should be more powerful swords.
So he asked the receptionist of a large sword-making pavilion: Is there a better sword suitable for strong martial arts masters?
The receptionist hesitated for a moment, then said with a smile: The swords in our weapons shop are the best, so why should we hesitate?
But Zhan Chen saw some clues from his concealed expression, so he tried to say: Are you right? Is the limit increased by five levels? As far as I know, there should be more powerful swords.
The receptionist glanced at him secretly and said: You have come to the right place. Maybe other places cannot forge good swords, but Yanyue Island can.
Oh, why is this? Zhan Chen suddenly became interested.
Because this Yanyue Island happens to be a volcanic island, there is a resource here called earth fire. Using earth fire can better remove impurities from the weapon refining materials, thereby creating more powerful weapons.
After hearing the words of the reception, Zhan Chen had another question in his mind: Then why don't you sell such more powerful swords in your sword-making pavilion?
Is this this? The receptionist secretly looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he whispered to Zhan Chen: It's because our sword-casting pavilion does not have a swordsmith who can master this kind of earth fire. To master the earth fire to cast swords, you need to
With superb skills and control, there is no such swordsmith in a hundred, and of course there is no such swordsmith in our swordsmithing pavilion.
So where can I buy a more powerful sword?
I heard that at the foot of the volcano there are highly skilled swordsmiths who live incognito. They are obsessed with swordmaking, regardless of fame or fortune, and can create peerless swords.
The peerless sword Zhan Chen's eyes sparkled with brilliance. What he needed was such a magical weapon. In this way, his combat power would be greatly increased, enough to deal with more powerful enemies.
So he asked again: Do you know such a person?
I have not come into contact with him, but I heard that there is a swordsmith named Li Aoyun who is very skilled. It is said that the senior management of our swordsmithing pavilion once visited him privately and promised him a high salary, but he turned him away.
Li Aoyun, do you really need to pay a visit? Zhan Chen murmured.
At this time, he didn't notice that Zhang Si's eyes suddenly lit up next to him.
After walking out of the sword-casting pavilion, Zhan Chen went straight to the foot of the volcano. However, after asking several passers-by, they didn't know that Li Aoyun was the sword-casting master. He couldn't help but feel a little confused.
At this time, I heard Xiaosi beside me suddenly say: Senior, I may know this swordsmith Li Aoyun.
Zhan Chen asked in surprise: How did you know?
Because my family lives in this area, I am very familiar with every household in this area. There is an uncle named Li who is very strange. He makes swords every day, but he often breaks the swords he has made so hard and recasts them. We
The whole village thought he was crazy.
But when I was a child, I and some of my playmates often watched him forge swords nearby, so we became familiar with him. He was very kind to us and often gave us something to eat.
Oh Zhanchen's eyes narrowed slightly. A person who is obsessed with casting, a person who always strives for excellence in himself, must not be an ordinary master. Perhaps, he is the Li Aoyun mentioned by the receptionist of the Casting Sword Pavilion.
So he said to Xiaosi: Xiaosi, take me quickly to the Uncle Li you mentioned.
Okay, Zhang Si shouted with joy and led Zhan Chen towards the village where he lived.
