Chapter 1800: Chapter 1796 Spring and Autumn Pavilion Offering

"Yan Sui Fire Crystal is an extremely rare fire attribute spiritual material and a top-tier material coveted by all artifact refiners." Although Fire Spirit Child was angry, he subconsciously explained to Shen Luo.

"Top-tier material!" Shen Luo exclaimed in shock.

"Do you know that this kind of thing is generally born only in deep sea fire veins, taking thousands of years to form, enduring constant seabed pressure? Once it leaves the deep sea, without special preservation methods, it becomes extremely dangerous?" Fire Spirit Child retorted angrily.

"This... I really didn’t know." Shen Luo responded awkwardly.

"You..."

Fire Spirit Child was speechless for a moment, raising his hand to point at him but unable to speak.

At this moment, a head suddenly poked out from the door of the Carefree Mirror Space, looking around cautiously.

"I was so focused on healing that I almost forgot about you." Upon seeing this, Shen Luo couldn’t help but smack his forehead.

He walked forward, grabbed Zhu Mangqi’s collar, and pulled him out.

"Shen... Elder." Zhu Mangqi stammered, a bit fearful.

After all, he was just a Mahayana monk, having witnessed Shen Luo’s true methods earlier, recalling his previous words and actions with Shen Luo, now he felt both regret and fear.

"Brother Zhu, no need for that, just call me Brother Shen." Shen Luo said with a wry smile, leading him to sit at the table inside.

"Brother Shen, if you have matters to discuss, I won’t disturb you. I’ll head back to Falling Sunset Island first." Zhu Mangqi said, barely touching the chair before quickly standing up.

"Brother Zhu, my apologies. All the Ten Islands of the Great Ravine have already sunk." Shen Luo replied upon hearing this.

"What?" Zhu Mangqi said in disbelief.

"Falling Sunset Island is gone." Shen Luo said with a bitter smile.

"So where are we now?" Zhu Mangqi looked around and asked.

"This is Mount Putuo." Shen Luo said.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Mangqi realized that Shen Luo was not joking and fell silent.

"Brother Zhu, even if the islands were still there, you wouldn’t be able to return. The Dragon Palace monks might still trouble you." Shen Luo patted his shoulder and said.

"I know, but it’s a pity about the family’s wine..." Zhu Mangqi sighed and said.

"What are your plans after this?" Shen Luo asked.

"No real plan; I went to the Great Ravine just to kill time, with no hope for cultivation. Now... I’ll just find another place to continue, no big deal." Zhu Mangqi said with a carefree smile.

Shen Luo hesitated briefly and said, "How about I find a place for you, maybe not riches, but I can guarantee you won’t be without wine."

"Where?" Zhu Mangqi instantly became interested and asked.

"Within Great Tang, in Chunhua County of Dengzhou, there’s a Spring and Autumn Pavilion, a small cultivation sect. I can write a letter on your behalf, letting you serve as a leisurely sect offering there. How about it?" Shen Luo asked.

Zhu Mangqi, upon hearing this, seemed hesitant and did not immediately reply.

"Is there anything you’re worried about? Speak freely." Shen Luo asked with a smile.

"Will I be able to drink the Immortal Jade Brew you gave me there?" Zhu Mangqi asked.

"What are you thinking? There’s not that much Immortal Jade Brew, but there should be regular spiritual medicine brewed wine." Shen Luo thought he was worried about something important and felt speechless upon hearing this.

"Forget it; if there isn’t any, there’s none. Just getting a sect to provide for me isn’t bad." Zhu Mangqi laughed.

"Then rest here for two days, and set off afterward." Shen Luo said.

"No, no... I’d better depart immediately. Brother Shen, you have a sect for support; I don’t have the courage to stay in Southern Sea any longer." Zhu Mangqi waved quickly.

Shen Luo thought for a moment and did not insist.

He immediately took out a special talisman paper and drew a talisman on it, then placed it inside an envelope.

"Just take this letter, find Pavilion Master Qin Ming at Spring and Autumn Pavilion, show him the letter, and he’ll take you in." Shen Luo said.

"That’s all? No need for any token or anything?" Zhu Mangqi hesitantly asked as he took it.

"This letter carries a strand of my divine soul, which will explain everything to him. Don’t worry." Shen Luo explained.

"Alright. Thank you, Brother Shen." Zhu Mangqi said happily.

After bidding farewell, he was about to leave immediately.

After sending him off from Mount Putuo, Shen Luo returned to his residence. Fire Spirit Child was still waiting for him inside, though he looked much calmer.

"Young Shen, I always thought you were someone with deep schemes, but I didn’t expect you to have this side." Fire Spirit Child teased.

"Fire Daoist friend, has your temper cooled?" Shen Luo said nonchalantly.

"What’s the use of not cooling? What can I do about you?" Fire Spirit Child said helplessly.

"That’s good, that’s good. Fire Daoist friend, tell me: is it suitable to refine Pure Yang Flying Sword with the Yan Sui Fire Crystal?" Shen Luo asked with a smile.

Fire Spirit Child didn’t answer immediately but started pondering.

"Logically, the Yan Sui Fire Crystal is definitely top-tier fire attribute spiritual material; using it to refine Pure Yang Flying Sword would ensure high quality, but... this Yan Sui Fire Crystal is quite special." Fire Spirit Child changed his tone and said.

"Why? Is there any flaw?" Shen Luo asked in confusion.

"No, the purity of this Yan Sui Fire Crystal is exceptionally high. When I say it’s special, I don’t mean it’s bad, but rather it’s too good, almost wasted on refining Pure Yang Flying Sword." Fire Spirit Child said.

No matter how good a spiritual material is, it’s only valuable if it’s useful to oneself. If it’s left unused, then isn’t it just like a wooden stick?

Shen Luo paused, refraining from speaking much despite the complaints in his heart.

"Your eleven Pure Yang Flying Swords have sword spirits like the divine bird Vermilion Bird and the solar Golden Crow, each rare, correct?" Fire Spirit Child said.

"Yes." Shen Luo nodded.

"What if I told you that the Yan Sui Fire Crystal might also birth an intellectual spirit body, which could be used as a sword spirit?" Fire Spirit Child suddenly asked.

Shen Luo was shocked upon hearing this, recalling the earlier scene when they contested Ao Qin for the Ancestral Dragon Horns, where two flames from the Yan Sui Fire Crystal pursued them.

At that time, he found it odd; those flames seemed to have intelligent spirit bodies. Now, with Fire Spirit Child’s hint, he realized it might be true.
