I Have A Trillion Protagonist Halos

Chapter 33: Master Ouyang

A deep silence filled the hall. The words "he has already obtained the star fragment" echoed in the vast emptiness of the hall.

At this moment, Qin Jincheng felt his mind go blank, filled only with Chen Changfeng's words. For thousands of years, countless people had yearned for and searched day and night for this coveted treasure, and yet Su Zhan had found it so effortlessly?

Could his luck be too extraordinary?

"Sect Master? Sect Master?"

Upon hearing Chen Changfeng's call, Qin Jincheng snapped out of his daze, his expression grave. "Junior Brother, are you sure? Is it truly a celestial star fragment?"

"Sect Master, how could I possibly be mistaken about something like this? The stellar power within that star fragment is immense, and I can sense it."

Recalling the power contained within the star fragment, Chen Changfeng sighed. "Ordinary, Spiritual, Profound, King, Divine That Star Fragment, I'm afraid even among materials at the level of Divine Weapons, it would stand at the pinnacle!"

"If it truly is a celestial star fragment, then naturally so." Qin Jincheng sighed. "I'm afraid he is truly a prodigy favored by the heavens! With such fortune on his side, we cannot hope to compare! Junior Brother, although the main material is the most important for refining a lifesource weapon, we must not overlook the other auxiliary materials either."

"Rest assured, Sect Master. Even if I have to empty the sect's treasury, I will find the most suitable set of auxiliary materials for Su Zhan!"

As Chen Changfeng spoke, he suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, Sect Master, if I remember correctly, three years ago, you seemed to have obtained a piece of vajra herb"

"Take it!" Qin Jincheng didn't even blink, and a glimmer of light flashed in his hand, revealing a finger-sized piece of a herb, which he tossed to Chen Changfeng. "Our Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect has been established for a thousand years, and it's not easy for such a genius to emerge. Not to mention a mere piece of herb, even if it takes everything I have, it's worth it!"

Chen Changfeng was moved and bowed, expressing his gratitude. "I thank the Sect Master on behalf of Su Zhan!"

"As for the matter of materials, it's not a problem. To refine the lifesource weapon, one must have some foundation in artifact refining. Otherwise, they won't even know the simplest shaping techniques. If it were someone else, you could casually teach them, but Su Zhan is a rare talent, and we can't take this step lightly."

"Sect Master, rest assured, I plan to have Ouyang Mu personally teach Su Zhan the art of artifact refining!"

"Ouyang Mu?"

Qin Jincheng furrowed his brow. "That stubborn old man gives no face to anyone and wouldn't seriously teach anything. Understanding a few things will depend on one's own comprehension. It would be better to find a slightly lower-ranked master for instruction."

"If it were anyone else, I wouldn't have thought of Ouyang Mu either, but Su Zhan is different. If he can obtain the star fragment within a day, perhaps he has the ability to make that old fellow Ouyang Mu take notice?"

Chen Changfeng smiled. "After all, Ouyang Mu is one of the top master among the fifteen major countries in the Eastern territory. He happens to be staying in our Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect at the moment. It would be a waste not to utilize him, right?"

Qin Jincheng nodded. "That's true. Ouyang Mu has been traveling far and wide, and he has stayed in our Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect for two years. He was planning to leave recently, but I gave him a piece of our Xia country's unique Flowing Water Iron to study, and that made him stay. I heard that he has thoroughly analyzed the composition of the Flowing Water Iron, so he's likely to leave soon. Junior Brother, if you want to contact him, do it sooner rather than later!"

"Alright, I'll take care of it right away!"

After Chen Changfeng finished speaking, he rode his sword and departed.

Returning to the White Cloud Peak, Su Zhan entered his cave dwelling not long after.

Outside, voices were already ringing out.

"Junior Brother Su, I'm Nie Qian from Peak Eleven. Upon hearing of Junior Brother Su's return and his preparation to break through the Martial Master realm , I specially prepared a White Stone Crystal Bronze' as a gift for you!"

"Junior Brother Su, I'm Chen Muan from Peak Nineteen. Last time when refining weapons, there were some materials left over. I painstakingly searched for them, and if Junior Brother doesn't mind, I would like to offer them to you!"

"Junior Brother Su, I'm" Just as that true disciple was about to speak, he saw the gates of the cave mansion open, and Su Zhan walked out with a smile.

As his gaze swept over several true disciples, Su Zhan smiled and said, "Thank you, Senior Brothers, for your kind intentions, but I am already fully prepared and do not need these."

"That's true. Junior Brother Su, as a divine prodigy, the sect must have arranged everything for you!"

The true disciples weren't too surprised and engaged in a slightly disappointed conversation with Su Zhan.

After exchanging a few words with them and seeing them off, Su Zhan returned to his cave mansion.

These things might be valuable to others, but they could easily be found in the Sect's treasure trove.

If that's the case, why owe others any favors?

"Senior Brother Qi, this Su Zhan is too full of himself!"

Several miles away from Peak Seventeen, Qi Yang and a few true disciples were discussing their cultivation experiences when they happened to witness this scene.

"And those opportunists! That Su Zhan is just a small Essence Condensation cultivator, yet they fawn over him like this!"

"They're just a bunch of useless people. Senior Brother Qi Yang doesn't even care about them. Let them be!"

The true disciples who had a good relationship with Qi Yang jeered.

Qi Yang smiled lightly, "It's normal. They only know of Su Zhan's astonishing talent and promising future, but they haven't considered that all of this will cease to exist after my battle with Su Zhan."

"Senior Brother Qi Yang, are you suggesting"

"This Su Zhan is incredibly arrogant. I plan to cripple his cultivation during our decisive battle as a form of punishment!" Qi Yang's expression remained calm, as if he was talking about a trivial matter. He looked at cave mansion on Peak Seventeen, a hint of sinister smile appearing on his lips.

Su Zhan, you better break through to the Martial Master realm quickly. I'm starting to become impatient!

The next day.

Su Zhan went to Little Bamboo Peak.

Last night, Chen Changfeng had informed him about Ouyang Mu through the identity token.

Today, he was going to Little Bamboo Peak to meet Ouyang Mu and learn the most fundamental techniques of refining.

"The Martial Master realm not only involves having a lifesource weapon, but it also greatly enhances one's strength. Moreover, Martial Masters can use Profound Artifacts. When the time comes, I can choose a Sky-Bound Profound Artifact from the Sect's treasure trove, which will make it much more convenient to travel!"

Recalling various information about the Martial Master realm in his mind, Su Zhan couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency and increased his pace.

An hour later, at the foot of Little Bamboo Peak.

Su Zhan had just stepped onto the stone path leading to Ouyang Mu's residence in the mountain when he heard a voice behind him.

"Junior Brother Su, what a coincidence!"

Qi Yang had a faint smile on his face. "I heard that you are going to condense your lifesource weapon. Are you here to learn refining techniques?"

Su Zhan asked, "What's it to you?"

"Nothing. I just wanted to remind Junior Brother that learning refining techniques is quite difficult, and Master Ouyang Mu won't teach someone without talent. This trip of yours might be in vain, haha!" Qi Yang laughed, quickened his pace, and walked past Su Zhan.

Soon, both of them arrived at the workshop in Ouyang Mu's residence.

"Master Ouyang, I am"

"I know, Chen Changfeng sent you. Look for yourself. If you can understand, then understand it. If you can't, then get lost!" Ouyang Mu was a robust old man, sweating profusely as he added some materials into a massive refining furnace. He didn't even spare a glance at Su Zhan and impatiently spoke.

"Qi Yang, the question you asked me last time is included in this refining process. After you finish watching, perhaps you will gain some insight." Ouyang Mu seemed to appreciate Qi Yang to some extent, and his tone became a bit more polite.

"Yes, Master Ouyang, I will study diligently!" Qi Yang respectfully replied, then looked at Su Zhan with a hint of pride. "Junior Brother Su, as a beginner, how can you understand the refining techniques when watching Master Ouyang? If you don't understand something, why don't you explain it to Senior Brother? I'm in a good mood today, so maybe I can enlighten you a bit!"

At this moment, Su Zhan didn't have the time to pay attention to Qi Yang at all because just now, he heard a system prompt in his mind.
