"Thief, stop."
Abruptly, an angry roar sounded out in Fang Chen's ears. In the next moment, a few black figures arrived in the courtyard of the residence and attacked Fang Chen together.
Just as he was about to support his master, a sudden attack made Fang Chen frown. He immediately realized that these people were the people who had come to save his master.
Ka-cha …
Fang Chen's Dao Body was pushed to its limits, the defense around his body immediately became stronger, he waved his fist fiercely out, and with a bang, he blocked the attacks of the black figures.
"I am not an enemy." Fang Chen said in a heavy voice.
Just as they were forced back by Fang Chen, Gu Zong quickly stood up and anxiously said: "Old Mo, he saved me just now."
Hearing Gu Zong's words, the serious expressions of the few black figures eased a lot. They withdrew their attacks and looked towards Fang Chen, saying, "We did offend you just now."
Then, they came to Gu Zong's side and asked anxiously: "Old Gu, are you alright?"
"If it wasn't for this little brother, you wouldn't have been able to see me." Gu Zong whispered as he glanced at the two corpses lying on the ground with lingering fear in his heart.
"Who was it that wanted to kill you?" The face of the middle-aged man who was called Old Mo was filled with rage as he coldly spoke.
"They are the warriors who ambushed me last time. They seem to be the remnants of the Huangquan Sect." Gu Zong slightly said.
"Old Gu, it seems like you have been targeted by someone. Be careful." The Old Mo said.
At this time, Gu Zong's eyes flashed, he stared at Fang Chen, he did not understand why the man in front of him wanted to save him.
"Brother?" Gu Zong cupped his hands towards Fang Chen and expressed his gratitude: "Thank you for saving my life just now."
"It was nothing." said. With an outsider here, he did not want others to know his identity.
Even Gu Zong did not realize that the person who had saved him was his disciple, Fang Chen.
"Little brother, save this old man. If you need anything in the future, just say so. As long as this old man can do it, I will definitely help." Gu Zong cupped his hands and said.
If not for the person in front of him intervening, he would have been killed by the two remnants of the Huangquan Sect before he could even wait for Old Mo to arrive.
"Oh? It just so happens that I have a request right now. " Fang Chen said in surprise.
Soon after, Fang Chen took out her own Star-Hidden Sword, and calmly handed it over to Gu Zong. The latter took it, his face was filled with surprise, and looked at Fang Chen, ready to speak.
Gu Zong had lived for so many years, yet he had never seen anything like this. Seeing Fang Chen shake his head, he naturally knew that he did not want others to know his identity.
After that, Gu Zong suppressed the excitement in his heart and spoke to Old Mo and the others. "Old Mo, I suffered a few injuries while refining previously, and needs some time to recuperate. You guys can go back first."
"Old Gu, we're worried about you." Old Mo said worriedly.
"Don't worry, they've already failed once. They definitely won't dare to attack me again for a short period of time." Gu Zong laughed.
Finally, after exchanging a few words with Gu Zong, the few people from the Old Mo turned around and left.
Watching Old Mo and the others leave, Gu Zong's eyes flickered, and he asked excitedly: "You … But Fang Chen? "
"Master, your disciple came late and caused you to suffer."
At the moment, there was no one around, Fang Chen's face was squirming, in a blink of an eye he had recovered back to his original appearance, he cupped his hands and said to Gu Zong.
"Hahaha, my good disciple, I didn't expect you to be so powerful right now."
When he saw the Star-Hidden Sword, Gu Zong had already guessed Fang Chen's identity. Now that he saw Fang Chen, his heart was extremely excited.
Back then, because he had killed Luo He's disciple, Luo Xuan, in the Sword Continent, he had triggered Luo He and Luo Hanshan's encirclement and annihilation. Fortunately, he had arrived on the scene himself, allowing Fang Chen to escape from this calamity.
It had only been a short while, but Fang Chen had already grown to such a level, that he could easily kill a practitioner at the ninth level of Qi Hai realm.
"Hey, something's not right?" I have heard others say that the disciples of your Baimei Sword Sect were all killed in the God Illusion dimension? Why you? " Gu Zong was a little doubtful.
When he had just heard this news, he was still pained for Fang Chen and thought that something bad had happened to Fang Chen. Now that he saw Fang Chen, he was naturally very suspicious.
"Tie Niu is me." Fang Chen explained simply.
Hearing the name Tie Niu, a huge wave swept through Gu Zong's heart. The name Tie Niu resounded throughout the entire Golden Crown, and even he who was in the west, had heard some things about Tie Niu.
"You're Tie Niu? "Hahaha, no wonder." Gu Zong laughed wildly.
However, after laughing wildly, Gu Zong suddenly started to worry about Fang Chen.
"You were the one who killed Luo Xuan?" Gu Zong asked.
Fang Chen nodded, and did not deny it.
Seeing that, Gu Zong's face turned serious: Come to think, have you heard the news about you being wanted? Tianhe Martial Marquis is searching everywhere for you, you have to be careful. "
"I will."
In the entire mansion, Fang Chen and Gu Zong chatted for the whole night as if nothing had happened.
On the second day, Gu Zong's injuries were basically fully healed. At this time, Gu Zong began to refine the grade of the weapon for Fang Chen.
Because of this, Fang Chen gave Gu Zong a large piece of Outer World Meteoric Iron. In just a day's time, Gu Zong had Fang Chen's Star-Hidden Sword raised to the Exquisite Spirit Weapon level.
"How about it?"
Gu Zong said as he handed the Star-Hidden Sword over to Fang Chen.
Fang Chen received the Star-Hidden Sword, and instantly felt a heart chilling aura enter his palm from inside the Star-Hidden Sword.
"So light."
Fang Chen held onto the Star-Hidden Sword, and realized that after levelling up the sword, the body of the sword was extremely light, but the sword blade was extremely sharp. Fang Chen put a strand of hair on the sword, and when the hair landed on the sword blade, it immediately split into two.
Seeing this scene, Fang Chen sucked in a breath of cold air.
In the Ancient Sword Continent, weapons were very important to martial artists. Having a good weapon could enhance one's strength in battle.
The Exquisite Spirit Weapon could be considered top tier weapons in the entire Golden Crown, because, in the Golden Crown, the strongest refiner was only at the Master Refiner level. As for existences above Master Refiner, that would require them to go to the Nanling or even the great stage in the outside world to look for them.
Gu Zong helped Fang Chen raise the rank of the Star-Hidden Sword to that of a Exquisite Spirit Weapon, and at the same time added a large amount of Outer World Meteoric Iron, allowing the Star-Hidden Sword to be extremely hard.
Whoosh …
Fang Chen held the Star-Hidden Sword and gently slashed at the ground. Immediately, as if the Star-Hidden Sword was cutting through tofu, it directly cut a hole in the hard ground.
"Cutting iron like mud."
Fang Chen exclaimed. Until now, the Star-Hidden Sword could only be considered to be truly sloughing iron into pieces.
"What's there to be so surprised about? This is only the Soul-Soldier. If you had seen the Mystic Soldiers that the Master Blacksmith refined, you would have realized that the Soul-Soldier was actually nothing at all." Gu Zong saw Fang Chen and laughed.
"Master, exactly how strong are Mystic Soldiers?" Fang Chen asked as he kept the Stellar Hidden Sword.
Speaking of Mystic Soldiers, even Gu Zong's eyes were filled with burning desire. He was currently in the Master Refiner, and was only a step away from reaching the Grandmaster Realm. However, he had already been waiting for this step for over ten years, and still couldn't step in.
"Only a Grandmaster would be able to refine Mystic Soldiers, and a true Mystic Soldiers is no longer within the range of a mortal's knowledge. Every single Mystic Soldiers is a peerless weapon, and after going through a Grandmaster's hands, every single Mystic Soldiers will have an additional attribute within them." Gu Zong said deeply.
"Additional Attributes?" Fang Chen asked.
Gu Zong shook his head slightly, and did not say anymore. Even he, knew a lot about Mystic Soldiers, but as for Fang Chen, there was no need to explain any further.
"I told you now, but you don't understand. You'll see it later." Gu Zong slightly said.
Fang Chen nodded, and did not speak any further. At this time, he suddenly thought of something, and then, he took out the book he obtained from Luo Xuan's spatial ring.
"Master, look at this."
Fang Chen said as he handed the book to Gu Zong.
Gu Zong took the book and looked at it. It was a book on the Dao of alchemy, he was a little doubtful and asked: "This is a book on alchemy, why are you showing it to me?"
"Master, you turn to the last few pages." Fang Chen said.
Hualala …
After Gu Zong heard this, he immediately flipped to the last few pages of the book according to Fang Chen's instructions.
With this look, Gu Zong was directly captivated by it.
"This... Weapon Refining Experience? "Where did you get it?" Gu Zong took a look and was immediately excited.
"I obtained this book after killing Luo He." I obtained this book after killing Luo He. Fang Chen laughed.
"This is great! I never thought that Luo He would have such a good item. This refining insight is too important to me. I've been stuck at a bottleneck for so many years. Maybe this refining insight will allow my artifact to break through." Gu Zong said excitedly.
"Master, whose experience is this?" Fang Chen asked.
"Great Grandmaster, this is the experience of a Master Blacksmith. As for who it is, I'm not too sure either, but the moment I saw the refining experience, I felt that my previous refining experience was just a small matter. This is the real refining experience." Gu Zong said.
The Master Blacksmith, even in the South Ridge Land s, could be considered a top existence. To be able to obtain the refining experience of the Master Blacksmith, was no different from to obtaining the guidance of the Master Blacksmith.
It was also no wonder that Gu Zong, as a dignified Master Refiner, would actually lose her composure like that.
He had been stuck in Master Refiner's realm for many years already, and with Master Blacksmith's refining experience, it would be strange if he could not get excited and break through.
"Fang Chen, this thing is too important to me. I need to go into closed door cultivation." After Gu Zong finished, he left in a hurry.
Seeing this scene, Fang Chen also revealed a hint of a smile on his face.
