“The Great Emperor doesn’t help people refine battleships, please go back.” A cultivator with a face like a clay sculpture stopped Ning Cheng, not even asking what Ning Cheng was here for.
It was true that Ning Cheng had not opened his mouth yet, he was just standing outside the cave residence of the Empty River Elder viewing the protective formations here, as well as the four powerful big words of the Empty River Emperor Mountain. From these protective formations he could see that the Empty River Elder was not only a strong artifact refiner, but also a strong formation daoist. Together with the fact that this cultivator who was blocking him called the Empty River Elder Great Emperor, as well as the four words ‘Empty River Emperor Mountain’, it indicated that the Empty River Elder was still an Eternal Realm Starry Sky Emperor.
“How did you know I was here to refine a battleship? Actually, I’m not here to refine battleships.” Ning Cheng said helplessly, he couldn’t be sent away before he had even met the Empty River Elder, could he?
The clay-faced cultivator’s tone remained emotionless, “Whether you are here to refine a weapon or not, you are not allowed to stay here, please leave.”
Ning Cheng was about to speak when a woman in green landed not far away.
“Qing Min Mountain Lan Ciao begs to see Senior Empty River ……,” the woman in green took out a jade box and handed it to the clay-figure face as soon as she landed, while cupping her fist and saying.
The clay face took the jade box and opened it to look at it, nodded his head and said, “Go in.”
Ning Cheng watched the green-clothed woman enter the protective formation and then asked, “Why can she enter but I can’t? Just because she gave a gift? Since you want to receive something, you should have said so earlier.”
As he spoke, Ning Cheng also took out a jade box, “Jiangzhou Star Ning Cheng, also seeking to see Master Konghe.”
The clay figure face remained expressionless, “Your stuff is too low grade, so I won’t accept it, please go back.”
Seemingly sensing that Ning Cheng’s attitude was quite good, this clay sculpture face finally spoke slightly more politely. It even added the word please.
Ning Cheng sneered, “That woman has only given away a Heart Refining Illusion Stone, I don’t even bother to pick up such things when they are thrown on the roadside.”
The woman in green who was walking in front of her stopped at that moment after hearing Ning Cheng’s words. She really wanted to know who was saying such big words. Was there any shame left? The Heart Refining Illusion Stone was a Starry Sky Grade 9 material and was extremely rare. If it wasn’t too important to her to upgrade her battleship this time, she would never have parted with this material.
This was because she knew that after taking out this material, there was a tenth of a chance that ** it would be a bamboo basket, given away for nothing. But as long as there was a slight chance. She didn’t want to miss it.
The clay sculpture face frowned slightly and opened Ning Cheng’s jade box, and when he saw the contents of the jade box, he nodded backwards, “The material is fine. Please go.”
To be able to give away ninth grade refining materials, he would take the initiative to invite Ning Cheng in even if he did not go in.
The minimum entry gift for requesting to see the Great Event of the Empty River was all Starry Sky Grade Nine materials. This was an accepted rule, and as Ning Cheng did not produce any materials, he was obviously someone who did not understand the rules, and he did not even think about letting Ning Cheng leave. Not everyone could just take out Starry Sky Grade 9 materials.
When Ning Cheng walked into the protective formation, the green-clothed female cultivator who was waiting for him suddenly gave him a faint smile. “Fellow Daoist Ning, you were actually willing to give away a Violet Light Treasure Eye just now, how generous. You shouldn’t know that even if you had given away the Violet Light Treasure Eye. You wouldn’t be able to ask Master Konghe to help you refine your battleship, right?”
In her opinion, there was no need to give away a Violet Light Treasure Essence when entering the gate. Compared to the Heart Refining Illusion Stone, the Violet Light Treasure Eye was even more precious.
After all, the former would only be useful if a strong refiner fused it into a magic treasure, while the latter was a good item that could directly advance the Nirvana Flame. But then again, if one were to take something of this grade in and ask Elder Empty River to refine a battleship, it is estimated that Elder Empty River would not even bother to look at it.
The reason why she stayed and waited for Ning Cheng for a while. It was because what she was about to give out was also a treasure that had something to do with flame advancement. And it was a few notches stronger than the Violet Light Treasure Essence.
Ning Cheng asked suspiciously, “After receiving my gift. Why don’t you help me refine my weapon? Are you going to receive a bullying gift?”
“This gift is just a knocking item to get you in the door for a bit. If you don’t have Starry Sky Grade 9 materials, you won’t even be able to enter the door. Even if you do get in, there are only very few chances to meet Senior Empyrean, let alone asking Senior Empyrean to refine a warship.”
The green clothed woman named Lan Ciao said with a smile, she knew that Ning Cheng should be here for the first time, so she did not understand the rules.
If Elder Empty River was so easy to invite, then this place would be overcrowded every day, could it be so clear?
“Then what do I have to do to invite the Empty River Elder?” Ning Cheng hurriedly asked.
Lan Cui pointed to a guest room not far ahead and said, “Later on, we have to go in and sit and wait, then take out the best materials and hand them in. Only if your materials are seen by Senior Empty River will this be possible to help you refine a star battle ship. By the way, Senior Empty River only accepts all kinds of materials, not Heng Yuan Dan. Those who are not chosen by Senior Empty River, then they can only return the same way, and the stuff will not be returned.”
This Empty River was really overbearing, but the good thing was that he just didn’t lack all kinds of materials. The reason he took out the Violet Light Treasure Essence before was really because it wasn’t of much use to him, and he really didn’t want to take out the pile of top-grade refining materials inside his ring.
Ning Cheng and Lan Ciao walked into the guest room, and at the entrance of the guest room there were two cultivators of not too low a cultivation level guarding the room.
There were already nearly ten people sitting inside the guest room, and there was a teleportation stone platform directly above the guest room, and behind the platform was a display screen.
It was Ning Cheng’s first time here, and even with Lan Cai explaining it all, he did not understand the rules of the place very well. However, since everyone was waiting here, he naturally had no problem with it. Such Star Emperors who were proficient in top-notch technology and were able to refine magic treasures all had all sorts of smelly rules.
If it wasn’t for Roland, Ning Cheng wouldn’t even want to waste his time here.
Ning Cheng did not have to wait for long before a line appeared on the display directly in front of the guest room, “Zheng Liyan’s delivered materials are not qualified, please withdraw from the Hollow River Emperor Mountain ……”
A man in yellow who was sitting in front of Ning Cheng’s face turned ugly after hearing these words. A moment later, he still walked out of this guest room with his head lowered.
After this man in yellow walked out, a bald man sitting behind him walked to the top of the guest room and placed a jade box on the stone platform above the guest room.
Ning Cheng’s divine sense broke open the jade box that this bald man had put up and saw that inside was a bottle of Broken Hollow Water. To be honest, this kind of material was very appealing even to Ning Cheng. It was a top-notch starry sky formation material that could isolate space.
The Broken Sky Water was quickly transported away, and seeing the bald man’s slightly agitated look, Ning Cheng secretly smiled in his heart. If Old Man Empty River really liked to refine weapons, this portion of Broken Sky Water was definitely enough.
In just a dozen breaths of time, a row of words appeared on the guest room’s display, “Xiang Wenyao’s material is not qualified, please withdraw from the Empty River Emperor Mountain ……”
The bald man’s face was even uglier than Zheng Liyan’s before, so it was evident that this bottle of Empty Break Water was a considerable amount of resources for him.
Seeing the bald man walking out and his material not being returned, Ning Cheng’s heart rose a little.
This Empty River Elder was somewhat shameless, since the gift from others was not up to par and he did not help others refine their star battle ships, then he returned the things to others. To say that someone’s stuff was substandard and did not help with something, but instead confiscated the stuff, this was simply too much. This was the same as receiving something twice before and after, and not being able to do anything.
If it was an ordinary material, Ning Cheng would not have been so angry. This Broken Hollow Water was definitely not an ordinary material, and to accept this kind of material without returning it and secondly without helping to refine the battleship was simply unjustifiable.
Ning Cheng stood up, no matter how strong the skill level of the Empty River Elder was, he did not want this kind of person to help fix Roland.
“Stand still, once you enter here, you must deliver the materials and let the Great Emperor look over them before you can leave.” What Ning Cheng did not expect was that he was stopped even as he left the guest room.
Ning Cheng laughed back in anger, “Good, don’t you ever regret leaving me behind.”
Lan Cao had talked to Ning Cheng a few times and knew him, hearing Ning Cheng’s words, she hurriedly transmitted a voice to Ning Cheng and said, “Fellow Daoist Ning, you can refrain from refining battleships here, but don’t ever start a conflict in the Empyrean Mountain, remember!”
Ning Cheng nodded and sat back in his seat again, at this moment the words on the display changed again, “Sama’s materials are not qualified, please withdraw from the Empty River Emperor Mountain ……”
Another wild-haired man walked out with immense disappointment, and while he was walking out, two more people came in, so it was evident that people were coming in and out of this guest room all the time.
This instead made Ning Cheng a little puzzled, as it was reasonable to say that the Empty River Elder was a technological and weapon refining powerhouse. This kind of person did not refine battleships for people because time was precious. If he sat here every day looking at materials, even if he could obtain a large amount of precious materials, time would be wasted ah.
Ning Cheng hadn’t even figured out this question when it came to him in line. In order to confirm if this Empty River Elder was cheating on the materials, Ning Cheng simply put in a spatial crystal that had a trace of divine sense imprint made.
If even a spatial crystal containing spatial laws could not make this man get his hands on a battleship, then Ning Cheng was 100% sure that this guy was cheating on high-level materials.
Seeing Ning Cheng’s jade box being teleported away, a hint of disdain appeared on the corner of the mouth of the cultivator who had stood at the entrance to stop Ning Cheng before. He even told people not to regret it, but you still had to give away the materials?
This time the words on the display were slow to change, a full half column of time passed before the display showed a row of words, “Ning Cheng’s material is not qualified, please ask the Empyrean Emperor Mountain ……”
Ning Cheng laughed coldly and was about to speak when Lan Cai once again transmitted his voice, “Fellow Daoist Ning, you must not be confused, this is not the place to make trouble.”
Ning Cheng’s divine sense landed in the jade box in Lan Cai’s hand, and an expression of immense surprise immediately appeared on his face. He did not expect that the thing he had searched so hard for would be in Lan Ciao’s hands.
He had long forgotten about his unpleasantness with Empyrean Mountain and said to Lan Cai with a smile, “Fellow Daoist Lan Cai, I wonder if I could take a look at the material you are about to send up?”
Lan Cai looked at Ning Cheng blankly, this change was a little too fast. Ning Cheng, who just now had an angry face, had turned his attention to her materials in the blink of an eye. Could it be that he had lost his materials and wanted his own materials to compensate? But this was the Empyrean Mountain, robbing for something was tantamount to seeking death.
