Chapter 608

Class differences and disparity status differences exist everywhere.

Du Ao City was indeed lively and prosperous. As Yang Kai walked, he observed and noticed the cultivation levels and numbers of the passing martial artists, and his heart was slightly shocked.

It seemed that on the Tongxuan Continent, Divine Movement Realm martial artists were a very common group. Among the martial artists he encountered in Du Ao City, six out of ten were Divine Movement Realm, and he would occasionally also come across some Transcendent Realm experts.

In that world over there, the Divine Movement Realm was already a good level. Even in some places, True Yuan Realm martial artists could reign supreme, but here, the Divine Movement Realm was not considered much.

Following Yun Xuan into a large hall, Yang Kai found that many martial artists were coming in and out of this hall. Most of the people who came in had expressions full of nervousness and anticipation, and those who went out were either happy or frustrated which made him veryfeel uncertain and he didn’t know what exactly this place was for.

Inside the large hall, there were many compartments. Outside those compartments, there were quite a few martial artists queuing up and waiting for something.

Yun Xuan led Yang Kai and Shui Ling directly to a compartment at the innermost layer.

Inside the compartment, there was a thick soft blanket on the ground, and many vivid patterns were carved on the surrounding walls. A precious vanilla was burning in the censer in the middle, and the room was warm and cozy.

There was a corpulent old man sitting upright on a Taishi chair, with a haughty expression, looking coldly at a martial artist at the peak of the Divine Movement Realm in front of him, and his expression was a little impatient.

When Yang Kai followed Yun Xuan to the door, he happened to hear him say faintly to that martial artist： “Without the Azure Sky Poison Feather, this old man simply can’t repair this secret treasure for you. Moreover, you’re not a disciple of my Proud Solitary League, so the remuneration has to be increased by twenty percent. You not only don’t have the materials but also don’t have enough remuneration. How can this old man make a move？ What do you take this old man for？”

As he spoke, he gently waved his hand： “You go. Find the materials and gather the remuneration, then come and look for this old man again. Or you can go and look for other weapon refiners. The remuneration they ask for isn’t as high as this old man’s.”

“Master…” That martial artist still wanted to plead, but was glared at by that old man, and the second half of his words was immediately swallowed back. With a dejected expression, he shook his head helplessly and turned to leave.

When passing through the door, he let out a heavy sigh. Yang Kai looked at the secret treasure in his hand and then savored the words the old man said. Suddenly, he somewhat understood what kind of place this was.

The old man sitting inside also discovered Yun Xuan outside at this moment. His eyes couldn’t help but light up, and he smiled and beckoned： “Miss Yun is here. Come in quickly.”

Yun Xuan smiled slightly and walked in, saying with a smiling face: “Master Ma.”

The old man had a beaming smile. There was not the slightest hint of the impatience and arrogance he had shown when facing that martial artist before. Instead, he became extremely amiable, which made Yang Kai click his tongue in wonder. He didn’t know what charm Yun Xuan had that could make the old man’s attitude change so drastically.

Even though she was from the Solitary Pride League, it probably wouldn’t be like this.

Moreover, the way the old man looked at her was also quite kind, just like an elder looking at a younger generation, without the slightest lecherous gaze.

“Did you have another secret treasure damaged？” Master Ma smiled bitterly and shook his head. He stretched out his hand and said, “Take it out and let me have a look.”

Yun Xuan stuck out her fragrant tongue, looking cute and playful. With a flick of her small hand, a ray of brilliant light appeared in her hand. Yang Kai fixed his eyes and saw that it was a secret treasure in the shape of a long spear. There were arcs flashing on the secret treasure, and its grade was not low.

However, there were actually some cracks on this long spear at the moment, and the body of the spear was also spotted. It seemed to have been corroded by something.

“The battle you encountered wasn’t simple.” Master Ma’s expression sank. He looked at Yun Xuan thoughtfully and sighed, “Alas, what’s the point of a girl working so hard？”

Yun Xuan giggled and said, “I accidentally made it like this.”

“You, I don’t know what to say about you.”

“Then don’t talk about me, old man！” Yun Xuan coquettishly said. As she spoke, she took out some materials and spirit stones and handed them to Master Ma： “These are the materials and remuneration for the repair.”

“The remuneration is unnecessary.” Master Ma shook his head.

“I’m just an ordinary disciple in the alliance. How can I break the alliance’s rules？”

“I said it’s unnecessary, and I still have this little right. What, do you look down on me？” Master Ma pretended to be angry and pulled a long face.

Yun Xuan stuck out her tongue. In desperation, she could only take back the spirit stones.

“Come and get it in three days. This time, I will definitely refine it to the level where it can’t be damaged！” Master Ma’s face was filled with confidence.

“Thank you, Master Ma.” Yun Xuan was extremely happy.

“Can this master repair secret treasures？” Yang Kai had been observing from the side and finally asked at this moment.

The clothes worn by this Master Ma were somewhat particular, and there were some special marks engraved on his chest. Although Yang Kai didn’t know what these marks represented, he guessed that they should be the marks of an artifact refiner.

Just like the marks on the chest of an alchemist.

Upon hearing this, Master Ma looked up at Yang Kai and laughed dumbfoundedly： “I’m in this line of work, so of course I can repair. Are you a new member of Yun Xuan’s team？”

Yang Kai shook his head.

Yun Xuan also said： “Master, this is a… well, friend of mine, not a member of my team.”

Master Ma laughed and said, “Your friend is a bit ignorant. He has entered the Secret Treasure Hall of the alliance but still doesn’t know what it does here.”

“He just came out of a remote place not long ago and is a bit slow to catch on.” While speaking, Yun Xuan quietly looked at Yang Kai and explained to him, “This is the Secret Treasure Hall of our Du Ao Alliance. There are many highly skilled weapon refiners sitting here. Master Ma is the most powerful one. No matter what kind of secret treasure comes to his hands, it can be refined and repaired.”

Suddenly, she woke up and said, “Do you have a secret treasure that needs to be repaired？”

Yang Kai nodded and casually took out the bone shield.

This bone shield has been a bit damaged since it blocked a lot of damage for Yang Kai underground in Zhongdu. Later, in a major eruption in the wasteland, it was damaged even more seriously.

Yang Kai originally wanted to find an opportunity to repair it. Unexpectedly, Yun Xuan actually brought him to this place. It was really like someone sending a pillow when he was sleepy, saving him the trouble of looking for it himself.

Master Ma reached out and took the bone shield, gently stroked it, and released his true essence to feel its internal structure. Suddenly, his face turned black and he was extremely frustrated: “Which bastard refined this secret treasure?”

Yang Kai shrugged his shoulders and said, “I don’t know.”

“Incompetent, too incompetent. Although the materials used in this secret treasure are not very precious, they shouldn’t be refined into such a low-grade secret treasure！”

Yang Kai smiled bitterly. The Mysterious Rank Lower Grade was already a level that made people jealous in that world. But after being evaluated by this Master Ma, it was said to be worthless.

This technique is also extremely poor. The weapon refiner who refined this secret treasure should be dragged out and killed.” Master Ma looked annoyed.

Yun Xuan whispered： “The master has very strict requirements for weapon refinement.”

Yang Kai nodded slightly. He also saw that this Master Ma should be obsessed with the art of weapon refinement. He is not only strict with himself, but also quite strict with other weapon refiners.

Master Ma looked up at Yang Kai again and said suspiciously： “Yun Xuan said that you came from a remote place. It really is. Only in remote corners will this kind of outdated technique be used to refine secret treasures. This technique has a history of thousands of years and has long been eliminated and not used.”

“Then can the master repair this secret treasure？” Yang Kai asked.

“As long as you have the materials, I can repair it！” Master Ma smiled confidently. “What materials do you have?”

“Uh…” Yang Kai thought about it. He seemed to only have the Ice Flame Star Sand obtained a few days ago. He quickly took it out and said： “Is this okay？”

“Spiritual Rank Upper Grade Ice Flame Stars Sand?” Master Ma’s expression suddenly became excited, and his eyes looked at the ice-blue flame beating in Yang Kai’s hand.

After these grains of starsand were taken out the temperature in the cubicle immediately dropped a lot. Both Yun Xuan and Shui Ling couldn’t help but shiver with cold.

Noticing their abnormality, Yang Kai quickly circulated his true essence to wrap the Ice Flame Star Sand and prevent its cold air from spreading.

Master Ma’s eyes lit up when he saw this, and he secretly nodded, thinking that this kid’s true essence was quite pure, and his control over the true essence was also quite remarkable. Although he didn’t have much knowledge, he still had some means.

The Ice Flame Star Sand can indeed be used to repair your secret treasure.” Master Ma restrained his excited expression and nodded faintly. Although the spirit-level top-grade material was very precious, as the top weapon refiner of the Secret Treasure Palace, he had seen countless precious materials and naturally wouldn’t lose his composure.”

But it’s a bit of overkill. This is a spirit-level top-grade material, and your secret treasure is only a profound-level low-grade one. The difference between them is obvious. Using the Ice Flame Star Sand on this bone shield…” Master Ma’s mouth twitched slightly： “What a waste.”

As long as it can repair the bone shield, that’s fine.

Are you really going to do this？

Yes.” Yang Kai nodded.”

Master Ma furrowed his brows and didn’t try to persuade him anymore. Anyway, both the secret treasure and the materials belonged to Yang Kai. He could use them however he wanted. Letting out a soft breath, he said, “Alright, since you said so, then this old man will make a move. However, to repair this secret treasure, having only the Ice Flame Star Sand won’t do. There is still one more material needed.”

“What material？” Yang Kai asked.

“Misty Mysterious Iron or Empty Cicada Jade. Either of these two materials will do. If you can find the former, I can help you refine this bone shield into a mid-grade Mysterious Rank secret treasure. If you can find the latter, I can refine it into a high-grade Mysterious Rank or even a Spiritual Rank secret treasure. It all depends on your own ability.” Master Ma said proudly.

“Misty Mysterious Iron, Empty Cicada Jade？” Yang Kai was stunned.

“One is a Mysterious Rank material, and the other is a Spiritual Rank material.” Shui Ling softly explained.

“Where can I find these two materials？”

“That’s something you’ll have to figure out on your own.” Master Ma snorted lightly. It seemed that because of Yang Kai’s wastefulness, he was a bit unhappy. “However, as long as you have enough crystals, you can buy anything in Duao City. The Misty Mysterious Iron and Empty Cicada Jade are not extremely rare treasures. There should be in stock.

“Oh, in that case, approximately how many crystals would it take to buy these two materials？” Yang Kai asked this question to Shui Ling.

Shui Ling pursed her lips and smiled： “With your net worth, you probably can’t afford it.”
