Chapter 774: Chapter 774: Genuine and Authentic

"So many wandering souls?"

Yang Cheng mused thoughtfully and said, "By that logic, hospitals should also be Lands of Extreme Yin, and the mortuaries even more so because the Yin Qi there is heavier."

"Makes sense, but the problem is with so many mortuaries across the country, which one is truly a Land of Extreme Yin? We can’t possibly check every mortuary, can we?"

"Of course not, we don’t have that kind of time."

Yang Cheng frowned deeply. He didn’t know where to look for Moon Marrow Blood Platinum. Perhaps the Tome of the Ghost Doctor might have some information.

As he drove, he searched his mind’s archives. It was recorded that the Land of Extreme Yin was in mass graves because that’s where the most unjust souls lingered. But now, there are no mass graves; the deceased are cremated and buried in graves.

Perhaps, as Cheng Qiyue said, cemeteries are the so-called Lands of Extreme Yin. Once they deliver the Sun Essence Gold, they would immediately head to Zhonghai’s cemetery to check it out.

By the time the car entered Zhonghai City, it was already two in the afternoon.

Yang Cheng didn’t return to the Kong Family Villa but drove straight to the outskirts, to Chen Shixiang’s place.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he was greeted by the sound of iron being forged and Chen Shixiang’s booming voice, "Harder! Put more effort into it! Didn’t you have breakfast?!"

"Master, I really have no strength left."

Wu Ji’s weak voice followed, his small face scrunched up from exhaustion.

Yang Cheng pushed the door open and saw Wu Ji’s frail little frame struggling to pump the bellows. His face was flushed red from the furnace heat, and his forehead was drenched with sweat, looking both pitiful and endearing.

Chen Shixiang was shirtless, wielding a heavy hammer as he struck a glowing piece of metal on the anvil, with sparks flying everywhere.

"Master Chen, I’ve returned."

Yang Cheng greeted with a smile.

"Ah! Xiao Yang, you’re back!"

Chen Shixiang looked up and immediately brightened up, "Come over and have a look. I haven’t been idle since you left; I plan to forge more weapons for you. It’s also a good chance for Wu Ji to learn some things."

"Brother Cen!"

Seeing Yang Cheng, Wu Ji got even more excited. He dropped everything and rushed over, grabbing Yang Cheng’s hand.

"Hey! You cheeky brat, who said you could stop!"

Chen Shixiang shouted angrily, though he had taken Wu Ji as his apprentice, in the boy’s eyes, Yang Cheng still came first, followed by Kong Lingwen. As a master, Chen Shixiang grudgingly ranked third.

"Master Chen, let him take a break. I have something to discuss with you as well."

Yang Cheng persuaded.

Out of appreciation for the comfortable place Yang Cheng had found him, Chen Shixiang waved dismissively at Wu Ji, "Go have a rest, kid. You’ve sweated a lot; drink some more water."

"Thank you, Master."

Wu Ji grinned, quickly going outside for some fresh air, gulping down water from his cup.

Though the past days of learning weapon forging had been tough, it gave him a sense of ease he’d never felt, as if he’d finally found life’s purpose.

At this point, Chen Shixiang proudly spoke up, "Yang Cheng, give me the Moon Golden Wheel first. I’ve had a new idea these past few days. I plan to improve the Moon Golden Wheel. All the materials are ready, so it will be done soon."

Hearing this, Yang Cheng took off the Moon Golden Wheel and handed it to Chen Shixiang.

As soon as he took it, he threw it into the furnace and turned to Yang Cheng, "Inject some True Qi into the furnace. It’ll burn faster and save time."

Yang Cheng immediately got to work, channeling his True Qi into the furnace, which suddenly glowed brilliantly. Beams of light spread from the top of the furnace.

Just then, Wu Ji walked in and was stunned by the scene. Although his cultivation was weak, he was a cultivator, yet he didn’t know he could use True Qi to feed the furnace, nor had his master ever told him.

Seeing his thoughts, Chen Shixiang chuckled softly, "Your cultivation is too weak to control your power. A slight mistake would cause the furnace to explode. Not only would the furnace and materials be destroyed, but your life would be at great risk. Aim to reach the Foundation Establishment Realm first."

Wu Ji looked a bit dejected, though he was already at the Qi Refining Sixth Stage, so he wasn’t too far from advancing.

Soon, Chen Shixiang signaled Yang Cheng to stop, then used tongs to take the Moon Golden Wheel out and began hammering it into shape, embedding a thin piece of iron and re-engraving runes and markings on its surface.

Yang Cheng had planned to leave after delivering the item, but watching Chen Shixiang forge weapons was such a treat, he couldn’t help but stay and watch.

Unexpectedly, two hours passed in that time. Chen Shixiang wiped the sweat from his forehead and submerged the newly forged Moon Golden Wheel into ice water.

Sshhhh...

The bucket hissed as he immediately retrieved the Moon Golden Wheel and placed it on a nearby workbench.

Under the lamp’s glow, the Moon Golden Wheel became more distinguishable. Compared to before, its edges were sharper, the runes more intricate, and the red and green Spirit Stones embedded on each end emitted a faint halo.

"Master Chen’s skills are indeed impressive."

Yang Cheng sincerely admired. Though he hadn’t tried it yet, he could tell the Moon Golden Wheel’s power had been enhanced.

"Of course!"

Chen Shixiang proudly raised his chin, suddenly noticing the Jade Box in Yang Cheng’s hand. Curiously, he asked, "What’s inside this box?"

"A treasure — the reason I came to find you today."

Yang Cheng smiled gently, placing the Jade Box on the table and slowly lifting the lid.

In an instant, dazzling golden light filled the room, and the air temperature rose by several degrees.

Chen Shixiang was first stunned, then his eyes widened. His mouth gaped wide enough to fit an egg, and he even pinched himself to ensure he wasn’t dreaming.

"This...this is..."

He trembled as he carefully touched the Sun Essence Gold, only to retract his hand as if scalded.

"Sun Essence Gold, could this truly be Sun Essence Gold!"

The excitement made Chen Shixiang’s voice tremble. He looked at Yang Cheng, awaiting his confirmation.

"The genuine article. I just got it and brought it to you immediately. Take a look at its quality."

Yang Cheng was also caught up in the enthusiasm, feeling genuinely fortunate for bringing back such rare materials.

Chen Shixiang leaned in to closely examine the Sun Essence Gold in the Jade Box. Seeing the hidden runes and power beneath its radiant glow, he couldn’t help but nod.

"It certainly is Sun Essence Gold, and of especially high purity. Where did you find this prized item, young man?! I’ve searched half my life and found nothing, yet you found it in just a few days!"

Chen Shixiang’s tone carried a hint of envy; he suddenly felt incompetent. Yang Cheng seemed to achieve with ease what he never could.
