Chapter 274: The Realm of Craftsmanship

The three of them began to pack up. Xu Zhaofu was busy with his work and said:

"Master asked us to burn his body into ashes. When Xiaoyao Sect is rebuilt in the future, we will scatter them under the green pines. He wants to watch the new Xiaoyao Sect grow strong and strong..."

The art of exorcising ghosts and controlling corpses is not unheard of in the world of immortal cultivation, so most cultivators will choose cremation.

Of course, there are also powerful people who want to live a second life and deliberately preserve their bodies.

Originally, they were going to carry out the instructions of Elder Lin, but they thought that Jiang Lan might want to see him for the last time, so they have been delaying it until now.

Since Jiang Lan has already seen him and handed over the relics to him.

Naturally, they have to start to complete Elder Lin's last will.

While Jiang Lan was busy, there was a strange sound. He turned his head and saw that it was Senior Brother Xu who fell.

He hurried forward and saw Senior Brother Xu holding his chest, feeling very uncomfortable.

This scene immediately reminded Jiang Lan of the phenomenon of the loss of vitality.

He quickly released the 'Qilin Mysterious Light', and after a while, Senior Brother Xu recovered and began to sit cross-legged in meditation.

Unexpectedly, his 'Qilin Mysterious Light' had such an effect.

Then, he immediately used the 'White Dragon Purifying Water' to see if he could solve this situation.

But unfortunately, it didn't work, as it was not within the scope of water purification.

Senior Sister Lin, who heard the noise next door, also hurried over to take care of Senior Brother Xu.

"Senior Brother, Senior Sister, you guys take a break for a while, I'll take care of Elder Lin's matter!"

Jiang Lan looked at Elder Lin in front of him and murmured, "Elder Lin, I'm afraid Jiang Lan won't have a chance to repay your kindness."

"Let me do my part after you die, using our customs..."

Since Elder Lin wanted to be cremated before his death, Jiang Lan couldn't help but think of the customs of his previous life.

He planned to build an 'urn' for him.

"For this box, wood is the best. Facing the deceased old man, yellow means auspiciousness and symbolizes protecting the health and longevity of the family..."

"In this world of cultivation, disciples are also considered family members. I guess... this is also the wish of Mr. Lin."

"Red means joy. In a sense, Mr. Lin has also died of old age..."

"Finally, white symbolizes a pure and flawless soul."

"Let's focus on these three colors..."

The first thing Jiang Lan thought of was the 'ginkgo tree'. This tree is very strange. It uses wood to grow 'fine gold' and 'secret silver', but it just fits the yellow and white colors.

At the same time, he also hopes that if there is an afterlife, Mr. Lin can be a rich man, whether in the mortal world or in the world of cultivation...

As for red, he will use the feathers shed by Xiaofeng and others as decorations and carve a pair of phoenixes for it.

Jiang Lan's consciousness enters the 'Ten Thousand Spirits Scroll' and communicates with the 'ginkgo tree'.

It has spiritual intelligence. As a spiritual plant that has contracted with Jiang Lan, it also communicates with Jiang Lan.

Before Jiang Lan could speak, he cut off a thicker branch and handed it to Jiang Lan.

"Thank you, Xing'er."

Then he released a 'spiritual cultivation technique' mixed with wood source, and the little guy swayed left and right, as if cheering and waving.

He couldn't help but sigh that his pets were sensible and well-behaved, and it was a great honor to meet them.

The contract signed by Jiang Lan and Xiaofeng was different from that of others. It was a contract of life and death, equivalent to the level of life contract.

Others either had temporary contracts or equal contracts, which could not reach this level.

Lin Baijun was surprised to see Jiang Lan take out a piece of dazzling wood-like 'fine gold'.

Such a large piece is worth a lot of money.

"Junior brother, what are you doing?"

"I plan to make an 'urn' for Elder Lin. This is a custom in my hometown. I hope you can help me."

After listening to Jiang Lan's explanation, Lin Baijun understood that Jiang Lan was expressing his respect and blessing for his father in his own way.

He also thought that he could easily take out such a large piece of 'fine gold'. The opportunity was great. The key was that he was willing to use it to commemorate his father.

It was enough to show his sincerity, and it also proved that Elder Lin did not make a mistake in choosing him!

"Then...leave it to Junior Brother..."

Then, he stopped talking and watched Jiang Lan's actions.

Jiang Lan placed it solemnly in front of him, and the 'Thousand Illusion Treasures' sometimes transformed into sharp knives, and sometimes transformed into carving knives.

It was ever-changing and handy, which made Lin Baijun and Senior Brother Xu on the side stunned.

They felt the sharpness and murderous intent from the 'tool'.

It can be concluded that this thing is definitely not an ordinary product.

Looking at Jiang Lan who was sitting on the futon and polishing the shape carefully.

He was a little dazed, and felt that time had flowed and things had changed.

Once upon a time, Jiang Lan needed them to teach magic, and to prepare the apprenticeship gift for He Xiaomi, and he also needed their help.

But now, he could easily take out the valuable "fine gold" wood, and the treasures on his body were beyond the reach of the two...

Jiang Lan did not pay attention to the expressions of the two.

At this moment, he was fully devoted to the production of the "urn".

Although as a cultivator, it is very simple to make a box, control the magic, brush, and basically it will be done in two or three times.

But Jiang Lan still chose to make it by hand.

This is the way he can express his respect and heart to the greatest extent.

In fact, he didn't know much about the "urn", but he learned about it by chance when surfing, and remembered it through "photographic memory".

Although he had a shape in mind, he had no idea about the specifications and methods of making it.

However, every time he cut, he was filled with blessings and thoughts for Mr. Lin.

The so-called work of heart is the most brilliant and cannot be copied.

When Jiang Lan devoted himself to it, he found that he seemed to be helped by God. Every cut and every moment appeared in his mind.

Even the vague shape in his mind gradually became clear.

It was as if the box existed in the world, but was born here by Jiang Lan's hands.

An inexplicable charm began to spread. Under its influence, Jiang Lan seemed to enter a certain realm and concentrate on making the box.

"This... Is this, enlightenment?"

Xu Zhaofu, who was standing aside, asked with a little doubt in his shock.

Lin Baijun was more knowledgeable than him. After pondering for a long time, she gave an answer that even she herself found incredible.

"The realm of craftsmanship!"

This realm is similar to enlightenment, but completely different.

The state of enlightenment lies within oneself, while the state of craftsmanship acts on objects.

It is said that there was once a mortal who wanted to forge the best weapon in the world, but he had no spiritual roots and could not practice. For his whole life, he could only forge ordinary weapons.

He was unwilling to give up, so he visited a region and collected the art of forging weapons.

He vowed to use the method of ordinary weapons to forge heavenly weapons and artifacts!

After decades, he completed a forging diagram!

When he was very old, he forged for the last time.

Many people came to see his joke, including immortals.

For them, decades of mortals passed by in a flash, and they took years to comprehend a skill at random.

They even doubted whether the old body could lift the forging hammer.

Unexpectedly, when he started, an inexplicable charm spread out, as if he had realized the truth, which shocked everyone present!

Some people even speculated whether he would become an immortal on the spot.

However, what surprised all the cultivators was that this person's cultivation did not make any progress. Instead, as the forging progressed, his vitality was like a candle in the wind, which could be extinguished at any time.

Under such circumstances, this forging lasted for a full 81 days!

And the weapon he forged was so brilliant that even the Jindan Zhenren was attracted by it.

There are also rumors that several Yuanying Zhenjun cast their eyes in secret.

In the end, the weapon was completed, but the person died.

But his weapon was made of mortal gold and iron, and was tempered by mortals. However, when it was born, it was born with spiritual wisdom and achieved the status of spiritual treasure!

It is said that many powerful people tried to seize the treasure in the world.

However, they were injured by the sharpness of this "weapon", and even worse, they died directly, including many Jindan Zhenren!

In the end, this "weapon" broke through the air and disappeared.

And this situation, which is very similar to enlightenment, was called "craftsmanship realm" by later generations!
