My Master Knows It All-Chapter 163 - 122 Array Plate_4

Even if we sold the present Four Treasure Mountain, we might still have to add the Fourth-Grade Spirit Field to afford it. Having struggled to obtain the Spirit Field, including the seven mountain peaks where meditation is practiced at Precious Look Peak and Blue Domain Peak, and having delivered the Fourth-level Spiritual Medicine, selling the Spirit Field now would just not justify the loss.

If we don’t sell the Spirit Field, then... the materials needed...

Cao Zhen suddenly realized that he actually had quite a few Divine Weapons on hand. What if he melted them and then used the molten materials to refine the Formation Maps?

With so many Divine Weapon materials, he could definitely gather enough to concoct the materials needed for the Supreme Unparalleled Formation.

As for this little Nirvana Pill that he was currently concocting, doesn’t he have a disciple for that?

The challenging part of concocting the little Nirvana Pill lies at the beginning and at the end, when the pill forms and is pulled out; the interim process isn’t that difficult.

He could let Yi Sheng do it. After all, with himself backing up at the end, the worst-case scenario would just be failing to produce a Best Quality Pill.

Cao Zhen waved to Yi Sheng and said, "Yi Sheng, come here. I’ll teach you how to concoct this little Nirvana Pill. Later, when your master goes out for a bit, you’ll take over the alchemy."

"Me?" Yi Sheng, full of self-doubt, pointed at himself and worriedly said, "Master, I’ve only just begun to learn alchemy. I’m afraid I might ruin your pill."

"What’s there to fear? Your master believes in you." Cao Zhen beckoned Yi Sheng over to his side and began explaining.

Yi Sheng was indeed smart; in no time at all, he had memorized all the content, even the weight of each medicinal herb to the exact measure.

"It’s okay. You don’t need to remember the weight of the medicinal herbs so precisely. Just go ahead and be bold in your concocting. A small mistake won’t matter. Everything will be fine with your master here. As long as you don’t let the flame go out, even if you concoct a Dead Pill, your master can still save it." Cao Zhen patted Yi Sheng, who had already sat on the ground and started to practice alchemy, then turned and walked outside, feeling indescribably pleased with himself. This time, he finally tapped Yi Sheng’s little head.

Yi Sheng blankly watched her master’s retreating figure. What did her master just say? That the precise weight of the medicinal herbs is not necessary?

She recalled how casually her master had placed the medicinal herbs and a daring guess dawned on her that his earlier way of handling the medicinal herbs might not have been about precision, but rather he’d been doing it quite randomly.

Perhaps because of master’s formidable alchemy skills, even if the amount of the herbs were imprecise, he could still concoct the pill.

"No, I can’t just carelessly concoct, even if master said to do so as long as I keep the flame alive. Since master entrusted me with concocting the little Nirvana Pill, I must do my utmost best!"

After Cao Zhen left Four Treasures Peak, he rode the Immortal Cloud Carriage to Hidden Dragon Immortal Palace and, without seeking out his four disciples, went directly to the Immortal Soldier Workshop at the Hidden Dragon Observatory.

Inside the Immortal Soldier Workshop, Ai Yunqi held a book in both hands, reading its contents while pondering over them.

Suddenly, a faint sound of footsteps approached. She continued to maintain the motion of reading her book, but the corner of her eye was already glancing in the direction of the noise.

Cao Zhen!

Ai Yunqi sprung up from her seat, looking at Cao Zhen with an unfriendly expression, her eyes filled with enmity as she angrily said, "What are you doing here!"

Cao Zhen clasped his hands together. Just as he was about to greet her, he saw Ai Yunqi’s furious expression and, baffled, said, "Elder Ai, what’s gotten into you?"

"How dare you ask me that? Don’t think that your misdeeds are unknown!" Ai Yunqi didn’t care about Cao Zhen’s status as a Peak Master. Consumed with anger, she went on to directly point at him, shouting, "You’ve done something as disgraceful as BeiChen Ying, dealing in the Divine Weapons of our ancestors, selling them to their descendants. No, you are even worse than BeiChen Ying, as you’ve even commercialized on our ancestors’ last wishes for profit!"

Cao Zhen then realized that it must be those people from the Little Zen Sect spreading rumors about him again. He had almost entirely been focusing on crafting mechanical fighters recently, rarely leaving the mountain and even then, quickly buying materials and returning to Four Treasures Peak, so he hadn’t kept up much with outside news.

It seems his reputation for swindling people’s money may have spread throughout the entire Hundred Peaks Sect by now.

He took a step forward, his face showing no hint of anger, and calmly said to Ai Yunqi, "Elder Ai, while I did sell them Divine Weapons, they gained Divine Weapons in return, their strength improved, and their ancestors’ last wishes were fulfilled. In what way is this inappropriate?"

"Such twisted and fallacious reasoning!" Ai Yunqi slammed her hand down on the chair which she had been sitting in for who knows how many years, and it splintered in an instant. She spoke coldly, "According to your logic, why didn’t all of our predecessors just give their Divine Weapons directly to their descendants instead of leaving them in the Divine Soldier Tomb? Why should they leave their Divine Weapons in the Tomb? It was for the future of our Hundred Peaks Sect. And here you are, shamelessly justifying your actions? Do you realize that because of your selling of our ancestors’ Divine Weapons, many are now saying that the Five Evils of Hundred Peaks should include you as well, to be called Hundred Peaks Six Evils."

"How is that for a reputation? You, as a Peak Master, being called one of the Hundred Peaks Six Evils. How will Four Treasures Peak develop? With enemies all around, you’re not only harming your own prospects but your disciples as well."

Cao Zhen did not wish to argue any longer with Ai Yunqi. He understood her anger; after all, she had spent all her time in this Immortal Soldier Workshop and probably considered it her home, even forming an attachment to every Divine Weapon in the Divine Soldier Tomb. Knowing that he sold Divine Weapons from the tomb, it wasn’t surprising that Ai Yunqi was furious, and he could understand that.
