A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality and I Become a God
Chapter Summary
As its master, you still need to pull yourself together.” Upon hearing this, the Immortal Emperor of Myriad Weapons fell silent for a rare moment before speaking softly after a long while. My disciple wants to learn weapon forging, so I plan to have you guide him in it." Upon hearing Jun Xiaoyao's words, the Myriad Weapons Immortal Emperor's expression finally became serious, a rare occurrence. The Immortal Emperor of Myriad Weapons was slightly taken aback by Wu Zhen'e's words, and after a long...
In the Upper Realm, in a mountain filled with flames, ordinary people cannot enter. Even those with cultivation levels lower than that of a Great Emperor will be instantly burned to ashes by the immortal fire.
And this is precisely Jun Xiaoyao's destination.
Looking at the towering mountain before him, Wu Zhen'e's expression became extremely solemn, as he naturally sensed its extraordinary nature.
At this moment, Jun Xiaoyao, with his back to Wu Zhen'e, slowly spoke.
"This is the place where the fellow Daoist I introduced to you is in seclusion. That fellow Daoist has been in seclusion ever since due to some things that happened in his early years, so you should be careful with your tone of voice when you meet him later."
"I understand, Master."
Wu Zhen'e nodded in agreement, and then, led by Jun Xiaoyao, entered the mountain in front of him. Upon entering the mountain, the terrifying temperature caused Wu Zhen'e's expression to change slightly.
Although he had no formal training in weapon forging, he knew that the most important element in weapon forging was fire. Only with a powerful enough fire could a powerful weapon be forged.
Without a matching flame, even an Immortal Emperor would be unable to forge an Immortal Emperor artifact.
According to Wu Zhen'e's estimation, the flames here are probably enough to forge an Emperor-level weapon. That's right, all you need to do is bring enough high-grade minerals into this place to forge an Emperor-level weapon directly.
However, this place is extremely dangerous. Even an emperor would be burned to ashes by the terrifying flames within a quarter of an hour. For powerful beings above the Red Dust Immortal level, imperial weapons are of little use, so ordinary Red Dust Immortals would not enter this mountain.
Furthermore, according to the master, that senior is in seclusion here, so no ignorant cultivators would come in to disturb that senior's peaceful cultivation.
Soon, led by Jun Xiaoyao, the two of them arrived at the summit of the mountain. There, they saw a dilapidated thatched hut. Despite being a thatched hut, it remained completely unaffected by the terrifying flames surrounding it.
Upon arriving outside the thatched hut, Jun Xiaoyao bowed to it and spoke in an extremely polite tone.
"Fellow Daoist Wanqi, please come out for a chat."
As Jun Xiaoyao finished speaking, the next second a disheveled old man walked out with a flushed face, taking a swig of wine as he came out.
A terrifying smell of alcohol wafted towards Wu Zhen'e, but Jun Xiaoyao simply waved his hand and dispersed the smell.
Wu Zhen'e also felt the terrifying power of the alcohol. He was afraid that just one whiff of it would make him drunk for three hundred years. After all, what kind of celestial wine could make even a powerful Immortal Emperor like himself appear drunk?
Upon seeing this scene, Jun Xiaoyao couldn't help but say something.
"Fellow Daoist Wanqi, please wake up. I have something to ask of you."
"Hiccup, so it's Fellow Daoist Xiaoyao. I wonder what business Fellow Daoist Xiaoyao has with me?"
The Myriad Weapons Immortal Emperor in front of him burped, squinted his eyes and carefully examined him. It took him a long time to recognize Jun Xiaoyao's identity, but he did not stop drinking from the wine pot in his hand. After speaking, he took another sip of immortal wine.
Jun Xiaoyao sighed and said slowly.
“Fellow Daoist Wanqi, Tianyou is no longer here. As its master, you still need to pull yourself together.”
Upon hearing this, the Immortal Emperor of Myriad Weapons fell silent for a rare moment before speaking softly after a long while.
"I see."
However, the Immortal Emperor of Ten Thousand Weapons still didn't stop drinking. Seeing this, Jun Xiaoyao couldn't say anything more and could only push Wu Zhen'e out first.
"Alright, let's get down to business. I've come here to ask you for a favor. My disciple wants to learn weapon forging, so I plan to have you guide him in it."
Upon hearing Jun Xiaoyao's words, the Myriad Weapons Immortal Emperor's expression finally became serious, a rare occurrence. After putting away the wine pot, he looked at Wu Zhen'e beside Jun Xiaoyao, examined him for a moment, and then turned to Jun Xiaoyao, muttering to himself.
"The one you've accepted as a disciple, could this child be from your Five Elements Sacred Land?"
"Yes, that's right."
Jun Xiaoyao nodded without denying it. He and the Immortal Emperor of Myriad Weapons were old friends, so he naturally knew that the Immortal Emperor of Myriad Weapons would not reveal this matter.
Upon hearing this, the Immortal Emperor of Myriad Weapons' expression shifted several times, as if he were deep in thought. After a long while, he sighed and said with some reluctance in his tone.
"Xiaoyao, you should know that I haven't forged weapons in a long time, and I'm afraid I'm quite rusty. If I were to teach you rashly, it might backfire."
"It's alright, I believe in your abilities. After all, you were the number one weapon forger in the Upper Realm back then. If even you can't teach, then no one else can."
Jun Xiaoyao looked at the Myriad Weapons Immortal Emperor with eyes full of trust. After all, he knew how glorious the Myriad Weapons Immortal Emperor was back then, and he also knew that if the Myriad Weapons Immortal Emperor hadn't had what happened back then, he would probably be the only ninth-grade immortal weapon forger in the entire Upper Realm.
Upon hearing Jun Xiaoyao's words, the Myriad Weapons Immortal Emperor fell silent for a moment, his expression extremely complex, seemingly lost in thought. After a long while, he finally sighed and spoke.
"Hey kid, what's your name?"
Upon hearing this, Jun Xiaoyao knew that the matter was probably settled, and quickly nudged Wu Zhen'e and said.
"I'm asking for your name, tell me quickly."
"Greetings, Master. You may call me Wu Zhen'e."
Wu Zhen'e bowed without hesitation.
The Immortal Emperor of Myriad Weapons was slightly taken aback by Wu Zhen'e's words, and after a long while, he smiled and said.
"You're quite interesting, kid. In that case, I'll take you on as my disciple. But I won't teach you for too long. A hundred years is enough. How much you learn then is up to you."
"Yes, Master!"
Wu Zhen'e's eyes also lit up with excitement, and he nodded and said.
Jun Xiaoyao breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that the Immortal Emperor of Myriad Weapons had accepted Wu Zhen'e. If the Immortal Emperor of Myriad Weapons did not intend to accept Wu Zhen'e, then he would have no way to force the Immortal Emperor of Myriad Weapons to accept Wu Zhen'e.
After all, the two were old friends, and besides, the Myriad Weapons Immortal Emperor was also in the late stage of the Immortal Emperor realm. If it weren't for the Five Elements Bell being used, Jun Xiaoyao wouldn't dare to say that he was a match for the Myriad Weapons Immortal Emperor.
Of course, the most important thing is that the Five Elements Bell is no longer under its control and has recognized Wu Zhen'e as its master.
After the Immortal Emperor of Myriad Weapons accepted Wu Zhen'e as his disciple, Jun Xiaoyao was about to leave when he turned to the Immortal Emperor of Myriad Weapons and spoke.
“Wanqi, since that’s the case, then I’ll entrust my disciple to you. I’ll come back with him a hundred years from now.”
"Yes, leave it to me. See you a hundred years from now."
The Immortal Emperor of Myriad Weapons waved his hand, issuing an order to leave.
But Jun Xiaoyao didn't leave so quickly. Instead, he pulled Wu Zhen'e aside and explained some things to him.
