Chapter 1879

After spitting the wine on the old farmer's face, Zi Chen was embarrassed and immediately stood up to apologize.

The old farmer wiped his face and didn't get angry. He waved his hand and said, "It's fine."

Zi Chen couldn't be blamed for having such a big reaction. The old farmer's words were too shocking. Even the Thunder Sacred Beast might not know how to refine heaven weapons, let alone an old farmer he met halfway.

"You don't believe me." The old farmer looked at Zi Chen kindly.

"I believe you."

Zi Chen couldn't bear to hurt the old farmer. Moreover, the old farmer didn't mean any harm, so he nodded.

"You will believe me."

After eating and drinking, Zi Chen took the initiative to clean up the dishes. The old farmer sat on the stone bench and looked into the distance.

Night had fallen, but for cultivators, there was no difference between night and day.

Zi Chen's room was in the second wooden hut. After entering, Zi Chen saw that the room was filled with miscellaneous items. With Zi Chen's eyes, he could naturally see that these items were used to refine weapons. However, as for whether they could be used to refine weapons, Zi Chen had reservations in his heart.

After a silent night, Zi Chen refined the pseudo-heaven cauldron in his room the next day. Then, he put away the cauldron and walked out of the room.

The old farmer had already cooked porridge and signaled Zi Chen to come over and eat.

"Before refining weapons, we need to find some Weapon Condensation Frigid Water. We'll go there later."

After eating, the old farmer said.

Zi Chen nodded, but in his heart, he was actually thinking about refining weapons.

After washing the dishes, Zi Chen followed the old farmer. At this point, Zi Chen didn't ask about the old farmer's identity, and the old farmer didn't ask about Zi Chen's background.

While moving forward, Zi Chen found that the old farmer was very fast. If he didn't use his extreme speed, he couldn't catch up.

What footwork in this world could be faster than the world's extreme speed?

The answer was, of course, no.

Obviously, the reason for the old farmer's fast speed was not only because of his profound footwork, but also because of his great strength.

Zi Chen guessed that the old farmer might be a true heaven realm expert.

It was not the Heavenly Realm created by the arrival of the great era, but the Heavenly Realm of the past.

Along the way, the two of them rarely talked. During this time, Zi Chen was always half a step behind the old farmer.

The two of them arrived at a valley. Standing at the top of the valley, they could see the entire valley. There was only one small spring with spring water flowing out.

The water that overflowed from the spring did not overflow. Instead, it flowed back into the spring water, as if it was in an endless cycle.

"Go get some spring water." The old farmer looked at the spring and said.

Zi Chen nodded and leaped into the canyon below.

Just as he jumped ten meters down, a huge pressure suddenly appeared in this seemingly ordinary valley. Under this pressure, Zi Chen's body involuntarily descended and quickly fell into the valley.

After that, he stood there without moving, and the expression on his face did not change in the slightest.

The old farmer watched the scene in silence, his face expressionless.

"What terrifying pressure."

At first, Zi Chen did not care, but after feeling this pressure, he realized that this valley was not ordinary.

Facing this pressure, he could barely move, and the spring was still spewing out spring water. Its resistance to pressure was even stronger than Zi Chen's.

"Hum."

Lightning surged in Zi Chen's body, and the blood in his body boiled, providing Zi Chen with great power.

Zi Chen felt the pressure around him lessen slightly, and his body could move again. However, after just one step, the pressure around him increased again, and his movements became difficult and slow.

At this moment, Zi Chen was almost two hundred steps away from the spring, but he could hardly move. It was obviously not realistic to want to get the spring water.

The old farmer still stood at the top of the valley, quietly watching Zi Chen below. He did not say anything before, and now that he saw Zi Chen's situation, he had no intention of helping.

The sun set, and the sun rose. Zi Chen took three steps, but it took him seven days.

After seven days, he only took three steps. Not only was Zi Chen not dispirited, but his eyes were also filled with excitement. This was because he realized that under this huge pressure, the speed of his world's change had increased by a lot.

Seven days passed, and then another seven days passed. The old farmer looked at Zi Chen like this, and he did not say a word.

With a flash, a figure appeared beside the old man. "Old man, why did you suddenly send a message to me?"

It was a middle-aged man wearing a luxurious robe. After he appeared, there was a faint flash of lightning in his eyes.

If Zi Chen raised his head at this moment, he would recognize that this person was the Thunder Sacred Beast.

"I want to refine a weapon," the old farmer said calmly.

"Refine a weapon? Are you serious? Didn't you seal the furnace?"

The Thunder Sacred Beast looked at the old farmer with a hint of surprise on his face. He wanted to see something from the old farmer's face.

However, he was disappointed. He did not see anything. The old farmer said calmly, "I've been itching to try something recently, and I want to refine a weapon."

"Then are you going to help me refine one?" the Thunder Sacred Beast asked.

"Refining a heavenly weapon requires too many materials. I don't even have one. How can I help you?"

"Then why are you looking for me? I don't have any materials on me." The Thunder Sacred Beast shook his head.

"I can sense your aura from this little guy. You should know him, right?" The old farmer pointed at Zi Chen in the valley below.

"It's Zi Chen. You …" After discovering Zi Chen, the Thunder Sacred Beast's expression changed immediately. He turned around and looked at the old farmer.

"He accidentally discovered a surviving foreign race member and nearly crippled him. After that, he put him away. That foreign race member revealed his origins. Although I've already stopped the news from spreading, it's still impossible to hide this matter," said the old farmer.

"Then what do you mean?"

"A Heaven-Defying Cultivator can cause the world to change. Danger can come at any time. Hiding is escaping. Although we can't interfere with his path, we can at least provide him with some external support to make his path smoother."

"So you're looking for me because you want me to find some materials for you to refine a heavenly weapon for him."

"The Heavenly Realm will enter the world at any time. He has a lot of karma on him. It's naturally good to have a heavenly weapon to protect himself."

The Thunder Sacred Beast pondered for a moment and nodded. "This is a good thing. Of course, there's no problem. However, I haven't been awake for long, and I don't have any good materials on me."

The old farmer frowned slightly.

"Don't be in such a hurry to say that I'm stingy. I really don't have any, but Zi Chen does. There are four foreign race Saints sealed in his Cauldron of All Creation, which can be used to refine Heaven-grade weapons. He also has a saber on him. Although it's only at the supreme level, it's made from Heaven-grade materials. It's just that it failed and fell in cultivation. With your skills, you'll surely be able to refine the materials. In addition, he's also captured several pseudo-Heaven-grade experts from the Five Elements Aristocratic Families.

"Why is it all him? This time, a Heaven-Defying Cultivator has appeared in your Thunder Clan. As the recognized ancestor of your clan, why don't you show some sincerity?" The old farmer looked at the Thunder Sacred Beast with a mocking expression.

"Although it belongs to him, it was I who put in a lot of effort to get it, so it's still considered mine. After all these years, you should have some private goods on you, right? Don't hide them and take some out. After all, a Heaven-Defying Cultivator is related to the future of the entire world."

The old farmer was angered. "Not only did I spend a lot of effort to refine the weapon, but you want me to contribute materials? After all, it's all ours. What can you do?"

The Thunder Sacred Beast's aura changed. "Weapon soul."

"What do you mean?"

"I've searched for many years and finally found a weapon soul. I originally wanted to keep it for my own use, but now I'm contributing it."

"What weapon soul?" Looking at the Thunder Sacred Beast's serious expression, the old farmer was curious.

"It's very suitable for Zi Chen. Its quality is even better than the souls of those Saints who have fallen in cultivation."

"Then take it out."

The old farmer reached out.

The Thunder Sacred Beast took out a stone the size of a human head. The surface of the stone was shining with lightning. "Old man, you should know very well about Zi Chen's identity. Don't be careless this time. You're not refining an ordinary heavenly weapon. It's a heaven-defying weapon that's closely related to a Heaven-Defying Cultivator."

"Cut the crap. I know more about refining weapons than you."

The old farmer took the stone shining with lightning. After sizing it up, he said, "It's indeed interesting. I just don't know what its quality is."

"I've already seen its quality. It's very good. I suggest you forge a small saber."

The old farmer took a deep look at the Thunder Sacred Beast and nodded solemnly.

"Please."

The Thunder Sacred Beast's figure flashed and disappeared.

Zi Chen didn't know that the Thunder Sacred Beast had come and completed a deal with the old farmer. At this moment, he was slowly moving forward. During this period, the world was growing. The world's origin energy was also constantly entering Zi Chen's body, strengthening Zi Chen's body and allowing him to resist the pressure.

Zi Chen was moving forward with difficulty. Every step he took consumed a lot of energy.

As time passed, he grew closer and closer to the mouth of the spring that was gushing with spring water.

The old farmer watched quietly from above. Soon, two months passed.

Three months passed …

Four months passed …

…

Six months passed …

Eight months passed …

In the blink of an eye, a year passed. The old farmer waited above the valley for a year. Finally, Zi Chen slowly reached the side of the spring.

After taking the last step, Zi Chen heaved a huge sigh of relief. He then squatted down slowly and cupped his hands towards the spring.

Crack crack.

The moment his hands touched the spring, a cold air entered Zi Chen's body, turning Zi Chen into an ice sculpture.

The old farmer was still indifferent. Everything was within his expectations.

Zi Chen felt a chill that went straight into his soul, trying to extinguish his life force.

His entire soul was frozen. Following that, the chill spread and arrived at Zi Chen's world, above the Undying Source Sea.

Crack crack.

The entire surface of the sea froze. The chill spread again and went deep into the ground.

The surface of the sea began to freeze. A thick layer of ice spread to the bottom of the sea.

The Undying Source Sea that was burning with the fire of life turned cold instantly. There were no signs of life.

"Boom!"
