Chapter 864

"Top-tier Imperial Weapon?"

He Pingsheng looked curious: "I want to know where you got a top-tier Imperial Weapon?"

"There isn't even a low-tier Imperial Weapon in your ring!"

Qingqi said: "Look, aren't there four thunder balls in my ring?"

"Yes!" He Pingsheng said: "But those are Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures, and they are low-tier!"

"No..." Qingqi said: "This thing of mine is just a replica!"

"The real authentic one is called the 【Azure Huo Huo Haichao Lei Zhu】; there are four in total in my Qilin clan, and all four Azure Huo Huo Haichao Thunder Beads are top-tier Imperial Weapons; these four Azure Huo Huo Haichao Thunder Beads are hidden in the four major Qilin clans respectively!"

"My Qingqi clan has one!"

"This Azure Huo Huo Haichao Lei Zhu previously belonged to my father; after my father fell, it was taken away by my second uncle. My second uncle said that when I reach the Mahayana Imperial Realm, he will return this Azure Huo Huo Haichao Lei Zhu to me!"

"Thinking about it now, it won't be returned!"

He Pingsheng's face turned dark immediately: "You mean to say that you'll give me a top-tier Imperial Weapon, but I can't get this top-tier Imperial Weapon, right?"

"Are you painting a pie for me here?"

Crown Prince Qingqi hurriedly said: "No no no... Fellow Daoist, rest assured, after my soul returns to my clone, I should be able to break through to the Mahayana Realm in a very short time. To tell you the truth, I have experienced life and death in your hands this time and already have signs of breaking through the bottleneck!"

"At most a hundred years, I will be able to advance to that Mahayana Imperial Realm!"

"After reaching the Mahayana Imperial Realm, my second uncle?"

"Hmph... I can crush him to death with one finger!"

"After I kill my second uncle, I will give you that bead!"

"At the same time, I will send you a beautiful princess of my Qilin clan as a mount; such a mount serves two purposes, how about that?"

He Pingsheng calculated.

First, he wanted the Imperial Weapon.

These replica Azure Huo Huo Haichao Thunder Beads were already so powerful; what if it were the real one?

Also, as for the mount... it didn't matter if it was Crown Prince Qingqi or not.

I don't care about any beautiful mount; as long as it's a Qilin, it's fine.

There's no need to take Crown Prince Qingqi.

"Fine!" He Pingsheng said: "You make the oath!"

"First, you shall not be my enemy for life!"

"Second, within a hundred years, you must get that Azure Huo Huo Haichao Lei Zhu for me!"

"Third, the Qilin clan mount cannot be missing either!"

"Fine!" Seeing that there was hope for survival, Crown Prince Qingqi was overjoyed and happily made the Heavenly Dao oath in front of He Pingsheng.

He Pingsheng didn't continue to keep Crown Prince Qingqi, but waved his hand and released Crown Prince Qingqi's soul.

Not only was he released, but Qingqi's ring was also returned to him by He Pingsheng.

Whoosh...

The soul turned into a streak of light and instantly disappeared.

Presumably, he went to find his third clone.

He Pingsheng swallowed a top-tier Thunder-Avoiding Elixir, then flashed and walked into the magic treasure space of the Primordial Violet Gold Staff.

"Roar..."

Just after entering it, the Doutian True Thunder transformed into a ten-thousand-zhang-sized lightning dragon and charged toward He Pingsheng.

He Pingsheng didn't spoil it either; he directly transformed all the magic power in his body into metal attribute and then threw a punch.

A golden divine dragon phantom flew out and collided with the lightning dragon.

Rumble...

The massive fluctuations made this space tremble slightly.

Crackle... Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

Whoosh whoosh lightning light still flickered above He Pingsheng's head.

He Pingsheng looked up and said: "Doutian True Thunder, I know you can understand what I'm saying!"

"Don't resist anymore!"

"You must know that this is a separate isolated space, and there are no five-element elements for you to absorb; the lightning attribute on your body will decrease by one point every time you use it!"

"You have no possibility of defeating me."

As he spoke, He Pingsheng waved his hand again, and a black-red flame flew out from his body, transforming into a ten-thousand-zhang fire dragon.

This was the Nine Heavens Profound Fire, one of the ten innate true fires.

"See that?" He Pingsheng said: "This is the Nine Heavens Profound Fire among the ten innate true fires; it has already been subdued by me!"

"Subduing you, a mere true thunder, is not impossible; it just takes a little more time!"

"Roar..."

However, the Doutian True Thunder kept roaring, full of hostility, and couldn't listen to any of He Pingsheng's suggestions at all.

"Fine..."

"Since you are not convinced!"

"Then I will beat you until you are convinced!"

Innate true objects are just relatively difficult to refine; in reality, after they leave their masters, their own abilities are extremely limited, and their attack power is not even as good as the trashiest Mahayana Imperial Realm.

It's similar to some genius peak Body Integration Stage.

This is based on the premise that they are growing well; if they haven't devoured top-tier origin, their combat power is even trashier.

For example, the Nine Heavens Profound Fire was imprisoned deep underground back then and didn't grow thoroughly.

Of course, if they have a master's continuous magic power support after recognizing a master, their destructive power is astonishing; a burst of origin aura can almost destroy a world.

It's just that exaggerated.

"Yellow Turban Warrior!"

"Five Elements Mixed One!"

"Fall for me..."

Bang bang bang...

He Pingsheng and the Doutian True Thunder started fighting.

After He Pingsheng's magic power was exhausted, he could use 【Seven-Colored Holy Lotus Tea】 to replenish himself, while the Doutian True Thunder had no way to replenish its energy after it was consumed.

After an incense stick of time like this, the Doutian True Thunder shrank from ten thousand zhang to a thousand zhang.

He Pingsheng stopped in time.

The true thunder was still unruly, but it didn't dare to take the initiative to attack He Pingsheng anymore.

He Pingsheng said: "I believe you must have seen it when I fought Crown Prince Qingqi earlier!"

"Doesn't someone like me, who can slay top-tier geniuses across stages, deserve to be your master?"

"If I were a mediocre person, how could I possess the Nine Heavens Profound Fire?"

"Now, I'll give you one more chance; let me refine you!"

"Don't resist!"

"You and I will merge into one, and I will become your master!"

"Only then can your power be manifested!"

"Rest assured, I will at least satisfy you more than the Qingqi Demon Emperor!"

The Doutian True Thunder had actually developed intelligence long ago; for a moment, it couldn't distinguish right from wrong, but after being persuaded by He Pingsheng, it thought about it a little, and coupled with the force He Pingsheng displayed, it had to be convinced.

The things that followed were much simpler.

Refining!

Back then, He Pingsheng spent a full one hundred and twenty years refining the Nine Heavens Profound Fire.

Now with the 【Six Harmonies Thunder Transformation Art】, refining was much easier.

It only took thirteen years for He Pingsheng to thoroughly refine this Doutian True Thunder.

Not only did he refine the Doutian True Thunder, but He Pingsheng also discovered that his big bottleneck in the Void Refinement Stage was also broken through at this moment.

His cultivation base reached the twelfth layer of the Void Refinement Stage.

Just one step away, he could enter the Body Integration Stage.

Entering the Body Integration Stage from Void Refinement doesn't require any special elixirs, but it requires merging the Dao with the clone.

The main body and clone merging the Dao law into one can enter the Body Integration Realm.

Unfortunately, He Pingsheng felt the realm of his clones; among the five clones, not a single one had reached the Great Perfection of the Void Refinement Realm!
