Chapter 98: Refining the

~7 min read 1,390 words

At this very moment, inside Shenguang Mountain.

Clouds and mist swirled around the mountain peak, and two women stood proudly atop it.

The one on the left looked to be seventeen or eighteen, dressed in green, tall and slender, with a beautiful face.

The one on the right was slightly older, yet still retained her charm, appearing graceful and beautiful.

Needless to say, it was Kongling Xianzi and Shenguang Xianzi.

"Come to think of it, that Su Zhangqing is quite remarkable; if he could be my daughter's Dao companion, my daughter would be willing."

The demon race is bold in love and hate, never hiding anything, saying whatever is on their mind.

"Sigh, silly daughter, although he is excellent, he is not suitable for you. You must know that humans and demons walk different paths; it is not so simple for them to unite."

Shenguang Xianzi looked at her daughter, whose heart had been stirred, and sighed softly as she spoke.

"Truly, a grown daughter cannot be kept, but how could it be so simple for a human and a demon to unite?"

"Daughter understands."

Kongling Xianzi's expression dimmed slightly, and after pondering for a moment, she nodded slightly.

She also understood that it was not so simple for a human and a demon to unite.

Furthermore, she and Su Zhangqing did not have any deep feelings; what she had now was merely a slight fondness.

"Good daughter, don't think too much about it. There are plenty of men in the world; when fate arrives, you will naturally meet one."

Shenguang Xianzi stroked her daughter's head and said softly.

"Mm."

"By the way, Mother, why did Ruyue Xianzi come to our Shenguang Dao this time?"

After setting aside her thoughts, Kongling Xianzi changed the subject.

"The other party came to form an alliance. At this time, the Yin Corpse Sect wants to swallow the Hehuan Sect, and a great battle is bound to occur. At that time, my demon race might also be drawn into it, and that would be a catastrophe."

Shenguang Xianzi said with a solemn expression.

"Originally, I did not intend to join this time. Even if she brought out the Tribulation-Transformation Pill, weighing the pros and cons, I wanted to refuse."

"However..."

Kongling Xianzi just wanted to say something more, but Shenguang Xianzi raised her hand, signaling her daughter not to speak yet and to let her finish.

"But now I have changed my mind."

"Since it cannot be avoided, then I will go with the flow. Besides, Ruyue Xianzi has now set out to intercept the Lion King and his son. However, Kuangshi Laoguai has been famous for thousands of years and is not easy to deal with. Yet, they have already formed a grudge; if they do not want to release the tiger back to the mountain, and cannot kill the Lion King and his son, they will only be counterproductive and add a terrifying enemy for themselves and the Hehuan Sect."

"I know Ruyue Xianzi's abilities; the problem lies with Su Zhangqing. If they cannot keep Kuangshi Laoguai, then this alliance is not worth making. If the two of them can behead Kuangshi Laoguai, firstly, it eliminates future trouble without worrying about releasing the tiger back to the mountain, and secondly, it proves his strength."

"Fellow Daoist is right."

At this very moment, two streaks of light flew in from the void, and as the light flickered, they landed in front of Shenguang Xianzi and the other.

Su Zhangqing smiled lightly, then raised his right hand, and a square jade box appeared in his hand.

"Xianzi, please look."

The next moment, he raised his right hand, and a streak of light shot out.

"Clap!"

After a soft sound, the jade box opened, and a bloody scent wafted out; inside, the remains of Kuangshi Laoguai were indeed placed.

"Hm?" After Shenguang Xianzi's gaze swept over the jade box, even with her composure, she could not help but show a look of being moved.

Tianshi Laoguai was a genuine Golden Core late-stage demon, and a very remarkable existence among the Golden Core late-stage.

Yet, such a powerhouse had actually fallen into the hands of these two.

For a moment, Shenguang Xianzi showed a look of astonishment.

Originally, although she intended to ally with the Hehuan Sect to keep her promise, it was a choice made out of necessity. But now it seemed that this choice was not wrong, and could even be said to be very wise.

"What is it? Is Xianzi not planning to invite us in to sit for a while?"

Ruyue smiled lightly. As a hegemon of a region, she was naturally an extremely intelligent person. Although she did not understand Shenguang Xianzi's intentions, she could understand a little by looking at her expression.

"Haha, it was my negligence."

Since Shenguang Xianzi had decided to ally with them, the expression on her face naturally became more courteous.

"Fellow Daoist is too polite."

The subsequent alliance went very smoothly, without any accidents occurring.

Next, the two did not leave Shenguang Dao immediately. Now that he had obtained so many treasures, Su Zhangqing intended to refine a powerful defensive Dharma Treasure.

He did not know how long this treasure refining would take, so he needed to properly explain some things.

The next moment, Su Zhangqing moved his divine sense to record what he wanted to say, then raised his hand, and the sound-transmission talisman turned into a ray of light and flew out of the cave dwelling.

Needless to say, it was for Kongling Xianzi. He did not know how much time it would take to refine this treasure, so Su Zhangqing naturally had to notify her.

After doing all this, Su Zhangqing's expression tightened slightly, and he began to sit cross-legged to recover. He did not know how long this treasure refining would take, so Su Zhangqing had to adjust himself to his peak state.

Su Zhangqing meditated and adjusted his breath; after about half an hour, his energy and spirit were restored to their best state.

The next moment, Su Zhangqing raised his right hand and took out dozens of Spirit Materials from his Storage Bag.

After preparing these things one by one, Su Zhangqing raised his hand and took out a five-colored flashing jade box. After the jade box was opened, a pitch-black object appeared before his eyes.

Needless to say, this was naturally that turtle shell. Originally, its volume was about the size of a small mountain, but at this time it had changed to the size of a palm, and the patterns on the turtle shell were even more profound.

Su Zhangqing opened his mouth, and a ball of crimson-gold natal true fire was spat out from his mouth.

"Shoo..."

As the flames flickered, they instantly wrapped around the turtle shell. This turtle shell was extremely hard; if it were not for the fact that the Covering Heaven Art he practiced was remarkable and the natal true fire he condensed had astonishing power, whether he could refine this turtle shell was another matter.

However, even so, Su Zhangqing spent seven days before the turtle shell showed a trace of melting.

"Shoo..."

A pitch-black luster flickered upon the tortoise shell, and pitch-black liquid appeared; the next instant, Su Changqing's expression shifted slightly, and with a wave of his hand, he struck out a streak of light.

"Whew..."

After a streak of five-colored light flickered, it wrapped around that liquid, and at this very moment, the pitch-black liquid that had already been refined suddenly began to boil.

A sharp glint flashed in Su Changqing's eyes, he struck out several more Dharma techniques, and with a wave of his hand, he took out a Spirit Material shaped like a stone and placed it into the liquid.

Cultivation knows no years, let alone when refining a Dharma Treasure, as a cultivator finds it even harder to perceive the passage of time; after an unknown number of days and nights, Su Changqing finally slowly opened his eyes, and all the materials before him had been completely refined.

A small shield flickering with Shenguang luster appeared in the void; on its surface, this small shield was pitch-black in color, with talisman patterns circling it.

This was a very rare Top-grade Magical Treasure.
