Nine Evolutions of the True Spirit Chapter 66 – War Preparations (3)

After leaving the medicinal pellet store, Lu Ping went to Old Man Chen’s smith shop. The smith shop was still the same as the last time he came. Old Man Chen wasn’t around but Chen Lian was there and recognized Lu Ping.

Chen Lian saw Lu Ping and hurriedly welcomed him. He walked to Lu Ping and exclaimed, “Ho, Junior Martial Brother, you’ve entered the Blood Condensation Realm! Amazing! Have you found the spirit materials to upgrade your Landslide? What is it? Is it the Deep Sea Frosty Iron? Or the Golden Crow Iron? Or the Windblown Dusty Iron?”

However, the Deep Sea Frosty Iron also has properties of the water element, the Golden Crow Iron has the fire element, and the Windblown Dusty Iron has the wind element. It’s perfectly fine to use any one of the three to upgrade Landslid
