The Immortal Pavilion was located in the center of Green Flame City, at the border between the north and south cities. It was also the dividing zone between the Teal Feather Sect and the Yan Sect.
The fact that the Immortal Pavilion could take root here had something to do with not interfering in the matters of the outside world, but there was definitely some type of power backing it up.
At this moment, the four of them were standing in front of a towering building.
Jiang Feng sized up the building. It was five stories tall and looked very magnificent. There were three vigorous and powerful words carved on the gate plaque: Immortal Pavilion.
"Immortal Pavilion, is it really the Immortal Pavilion?" The voice of a Skyfiend rang out in Jiang Feng's mind.
Jiang Feng was curious. This was the second time the Skyscraping Pavilion had been mentioned by a Skyfiend. He couldn't help but ask, "Skyfiend, do you know about the pavilion?"
The Skyfiend's voice was slightly solemn. "There's a force on Tianyuan Continent called the Immortal Pavilion. It's spread across the entire continent. They don't care about worldly affairs and focus on cultivating inscription patterns. Even so, even Heaven-grade forces wouldn't dare to provoke them."
Heaven-level forces didn't dare to provoke him?
Jiang Feng was startled. Heaven ranked forces were already the strongest forces on this continent, and they didn't even dare provoke a Heaven ranked force. What kind of existence was that?
"Only, the undying pavilion is located in the Nine Heavens Ten Earths. This small place in the northern region of the Li Province actually has an undying pavilion as well. I wonder if it is that undying pavilion."
The demon said, "However, there should be some connection between you and the Immortal Pavilion. Boy, this may be an opportunity. If you can show your powerful inscription talent and gain a certain status in the Immortal Pavilion, it will be much more convenient for you to set foot in the Nine Heavens Ten Earths in the future."
A blazing light flashed in Jiang Feng's eyes. He didn't even dare to provoke a Heaven Class power. How strong would this pavilion be?
If he could gain a certain position in it, it would be very helpful for him to go to a wider place in the future.
"The Immortal Pavilion is divided into three branches: Alchemy, Refined Weapons, and Formation. This is also one of the three directions in the development of an Inscriptionist. No matter where you comprehend or display great talent, you will be highly valued. Good luck, kid." The Skyfiend said.
"Definitely!" Jiang Feng's expression was resolute.
"Jiang Feng, are you sure you want to learn the inscriptions?" Outside the Immortal Pavilion, Qingxuan asked again. She had always felt that it would be a waste of time for a warrior to learn the inscriptions, not to mention whether he could cultivate them or not.
Jiang Feng had made up his mind. Furthermore, upon hearing the words of the Skyfiend, he had made up his mind that no matter how difficult the inscription pattern was, he would still practice it.
A powerful inscription power would not even dare to provoke a Heaven-level power. The power of an Inscriptionist might be far beyond their imagination.
"Qing Xuan, Duan Lei, and Yin Yan, Inscription Masters are not as simple as you think. If it's possible, I hope you can also cultivate." Jiang Feng looked at the three of them and said.
"Stop." Duan Lei stretched out his hand and interrupted Jiang Feng's words. He smiled ruefully, "Since you insist on giving it a try, then let's go and have a try. Let's take a walk around and see if there's anything that we value."
Qing Xuan and Yin Yan also nodded. They admitted that Inscription Masters were very important to warriors, but it was undoubtedly a waste of time for them to learn inscription patterns.
"Okay."
Jiang Feng nodded and the four of them walked into the Immortal Pavilion. There was a large crowd of people in the spacious main hall, and it was very lively.
The trio walked deeper into the hall to see if there were any suitable items. As for Jiang Feng, he walked towards the reception office.
There was a young woman at the reception. She was dressed in the special clothes of the Immortal Pavilion, which outlined her graceful figure to the extreme.
"Hello, do you need to refine weapons or pills?" The woman asked with a smile when she saw Jiang Feng walking over. Most of the people who came to the Immortal Pavilion were here for the elixirs and mystical weapons. If there was nothing that they liked, they could all go to the reception room, write down their requests, and the Immortal Pavilion would directly refine them.
"I want to become an inscription apprentice." Jiang Feng directly expressed his intentions.
"Well, Master Song An is recruiting apprentices. Just in time, he will come over later. I can introduce him to you. Of course, I can't guarantee that Master Song An will accept you." The woman's smile didn't change. There were many people who wanted to be an apprentice. She had seen many of such people.
"Many thanks." Jiang Feng expressed his thanks.
"You're welcome." The woman was very calm, and her warm smile made people feel comfortable.
Jiang Feng nodded privately.
From the looks of it, it could be seen that all the maids in the reception office were of such quality. The foundations of the Immortal Pavilion were likely beyond everyone's imagination. At this moment, Jiang Feng firmly believed that the Immortal Pavilion was exactly what the Skyscraping Pavilion was called.
"Wang Yan, this is an appointment made three days ago. The mysterious weapon that I refined has now been completed. If someone comes to take it, just give it to him."
At this moment, a loud and clear voice came. A man in a black robe strode over. The black robe on his body was the unique clothing of an Inscriptionist of the Immortal Pavilion. A circular pattern was carved on his left shoulder, and a blood-red color covered it. It represented his identity as a Rank One Inscriptionist, which was very eye-catching.
Jiang Feng discovered that the candidates in the main hall didn't have much of a reaction. However, the people from the Immortal Pavilion all had looks of respect on their faces. In their eyes, inscription masters were all very honorable.
The maid took the mysterious weapon and said to Song An, "Master Song An, there is another person who wants to ask you to forge a long sword today. He asked you to record all the requirements here. Also, there is someone here who wants to be an apprentice."
"Okay."
Song An took the registration information that Wang Yan had handed over and looked in the direction she was pointing. He looked up and down at Jiang Feng and asked, "Do you want to be an apprentice?"
"Yes." Jiang Feng nodded.
"Have you been in contact with inscriptions before?" Song An asked again.
Jiang Feng shook his head. "No."
"Come with me."
Song An brought Jiang Feng to the right side of the hall. There was a different world inside, with individual pavilions on both sides.
As a Rank 1 Inscriptionist of the Immortal Pavilion, Song An also had his own personal refining room. After Jiang Feng followed Song An into the refining room, a scorching hot aura instantly assailed his senses. The temperature in the room was extremely high, and beads of sweat appeared on Jiang Feng's forehead in an instant.
"It looks like Song An is on the path of artifact forging." Jiang Feng thought to himself as he looked at the crafting furnace in the middle of the room.
Song An walked into the inner room and came out very quickly. He held a ball in his hand and waved at Jiang Feng. "Come here. I'll first test if you have an inscription talent."
Jiang Feng stepped forward, his expression carrying a bit of doubt. How was one's inscription talent tested?
"The Inscriptionist cultivates inscription power with soul force. Without enough soul force, it is very difficult to cultivate inscription power. Moreover, even if the soul force is strong, it might not be able to refine inscription power. This inscription pattern crystal can test your perception of inscription power."
Song An explained, "Put your hand on the Inscription Crystal. I know the result."
Hearing this, Jiang Feng didn't hesitate any longer. He reached out his hand and gently placed it on the inscription pattern crystal. Following Song An's instructions, he thoroughly infiltrated his perception into it.
Weng!
After a while, the inscription pattern crystal began to vibrate and burst out white light. But soon, it dimmed again and did not respond.
Jiang Feng raised his head and looked at Song An with slight anticipation. He didn't know anything about the art of inscription. He naturally didn't know if this result was good or bad.
"Huh?" Song An frowned slightly, looking a little surprised.
The inscription pattern crystal could test a cultivator's perception of inscription power. Different talents could activate different colors of light. The white light was the lowest level of talent.
However, no matter how great one's potential was, as long as one could stimulate the reaction of the inscription pattern crystal, the light would remain constant until the candidate completed the test. However, like Jiang Feng, the light disappeared in a flash like a white horse. It had never appeared before.
He especially checked the inscription pattern crystal and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with it.
"It seems that this kid's talent is too weak to activate the inscription pattern crystal. He won't be able to do it without any strength in the future." Song Ping'an thought to himself. It seemed that this was the only explanation.
He raised his head and looked at Jiang Feng, saying, "Although my potential is quite bad, at least I have the chance to sense the power of inscription. I'll accept you as my disciple."
"Thank you very much, Master Song An." Jiang Feng didn't know how talented he was in inscription patterns, but he was still very happy that Song An was willing to accept him as an apprentice. At the very least, it meant that he had the foundation to cultivate inscription patterns.
"The inscription patterns are generally divided into three directions. Alchemy, refining weapons, and carving arrays. What are your intentions for development?" Song An asked.
Jiang Feng said, "I'll learn whatever Master Song An wishes to teach me."
Song An was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said, "Boy, you're so smart."
"I believe you've seen it as well. I'm on the path of artifact forging. In the future, you'll treat me like a pawn. You'll do whatever I ask you to do. Understand?" Song An said.
"Understood." Jiang Feng had long since prepared this and nodded his head.
Song An said, "Don't underestimate the art of refining weapons. The basics of refining weapons are inscriptions. If a profound weapon is completed, it will only be an ordinary profound weapon without a powerful inscription. Moreover, if you want to engrave a powerful formation, you also need to master countless inscriptions. As for alchemy, as long as you practice the inscription power, you can refine it with the elixir prescription and powerful flame."
"Therefore, if you practice the Law of Refining Weapons and master powerful inscriptions, you'll have a chance to practice the Formation. In this way, you'll be able to take care of the three inscriptions."
A sharp light flashed through Jiang Feng's eyes when he heard Song An's words. Since he'd decided to learn inscription patterns, he naturally wanted to do it to the extreme.
"Alright, take a look around and familiarize yourself with the environment," Song An said casually. After putting away the inscription pattern crystal, he walked out of the refining room.
Jiang Feng nodded slightly. Although there was a bit of arrogance in Song An's actions, he was still domineering and treated him quite well.
"These are all craftsmanship materials." Jiang Feng walked to the side where there were countless containers. They were filled with countless metal materials and inscribed with words. The classification was extremely strict.
Jiang Feng then walked to the other side, where there were all sorts of weapons. There should be knives, spears, and sticks. He casually picked up a long sword and waved it a few times.
"Eh? Empty?" Jiang Feng frowned. It turned out that these profound weapons were merely models.
"No wonder an Inscriptionist is so rich. The same profound weapon can be used to directly create an embryonic form. It will take too much time," Jiang Feng said to himself with a smile.
Jiang Feng was familiarizing himself with the crafting room as he observed the crafting materials. In the end, his gaze landed on a corner.
There were many useless inscription spirit tablets piled up there.
Jiang Feng walked over curiously.
