Immortal weapon refiner

Chapter 1044 The Spirit of the Cauldron Escapes
Seeing the two flying Flame Immortal Fruits, Li Qing's face lit up with ecstasy. These were true Immortal Fruits! Although he didn't know their uses yet, the immortal spiritual power they contained was invaluable.

Chichi~!

When Li Qing tried to touch it, even just getting close, his palm was unusually burned. The fiery immortal spiritual power contained within was truly terrifying.

"What terrifying power! It's truly unimaginably domineering!" Li Qing's eyes revealed a look of horror. If this Flame Immortal Fruit were thrown out directly to activate it, causing the Flame Immortal Spiritual Power inside to erupt, it could probably directly injure a peak expert in the Mahayana stage.

Not daring to touch them with his palm any further, Li Qing put both Flame Immortal Fruits into his Cave Heaven Treasure.

At this moment, there were still three fruits on the crown of that Flame Immortal Tree, which made him very envious, but the Kunpeng Divine Power in his body had been exhausted again, and he could not use the Flame of the Void.

"Unfortunately, I can only give up for now. If I can advance to the Mahayana stage in the future, I might as well try to see if I can force my way into the Myriad Treasures Ancient Realm."

"For now, all we can do is record the spatial coordinates of this realm for future location purposes."

There are four kinds of immortal medicines here. It would be impossible not to be tempted. Even if one's cultivation has reached the Mahayana stage, one would go crazy for them.

Time is running out. If we don't leave now, we might miss out on the rare artifact of the laws. After all, Li Qing had promised to use the laws of chaos to help the spirit of the medicine cauldron escape from this realm.

With difficulty, Li Qing managed to tear his gaze away from the Flaming Immortal Tree, then quickly flew away, leaving the Midsummer Herb Garden.

When the surrounding scenery changed again, Li Qing returned to the Spring Herb Garden, where the air was no longer scorching hot and had become warm and pleasant.

Almost at the same time he returned, another spatial rift opened up where he had entered the herb garden.

"It's time to go." Even if there's reluctance in her heart, she has to leave; after all, staying any longer would be futile.
Since you've made a promise, you should naturally do it; otherwise, if you develop a mental block as a result, you'll be in big trouble later.

Once a cultivator reaches this level of cultivation, they place even greater importance on the promises they make. This is why a favor from a high-level cultivator is so precious.

Passing through the crevice, Li Qing returned to the bluestone plaza inside the inner hall.

"Hey, where are the other two?"

The old Daoist Chuyun and the old woman surnamed Wen, who had been guarding a pill tower in the inner hall, had disappeared. This was quite unbelievable. There were countless precious opportunities in the inner hall, so why would they leave so easily?

Just as he was thinking this, two beams of light suddenly flew in one after the other from the entrance of the inner hall, seemingly engaged in a chase.

"Old Lady Wen, I'm just curious to take a look at that Dao diagram. I will never compete with you for it." The dark green light was from the old Daoist Chuyun, and his voice was filled with urgency.

The old woman's speed did not decrease; in fact, it increased. A gentle breeze flowed within her escape light, clearly due to the power of some high-level talisman. Her speed was astonishing, and her trajectory was completely unpredictable.

Otherwise, even if the old Taoist Izumo's injuries were severe, it would have been impossible for him to remain unable to catch up indefinitely.

"Brother Chuyun, why are you in such a hurry? I'll just wait until I leave this world and study this Dao diagram carefully before sending it to you," the old woman surnamed Wen replied. She was stalling for time. As long as she could hold out until her time in the Wanbao Ancient World ended, she could escape this pursuit.

However, the old Taoist priest Chuyun refused to give up and chased even more urgently, but unfortunately, his injuries had not healed and he was unable to catch up.

Li Qing, who had just left the herb garden, watched as the two chased each other in the inner hall. In no time, they rushed to the outer hall and even left the Wanbao Palace complex.

"What kind of Dao diagram could it be that caused these two to tear each other apart?" Li Qing murmured.

Soon, the voice of the spirit of the medicine cauldron entered his ears: "No need to worry about it, it's just a fake and forged Dao diagram."

"Back then, Wanbao Laogui spent a lot of effort searching for traces of the Chaos Treasure. Although he obtained many clues, he ultimately came up empty-handed."

"Later, this bored old ghost refined some of the chaotic mist he obtained during the process into fake Dao diagrams, and claimed to the people of the Wanbao Merchant Alliance that these were Dao diagrams that might contain Chaotic Treasures. Then he deliberately let them leak out, eventually luring many powerful people into dangerous forbidden areas or life-forbidden zones."

Upon hearing this, Li Qing's lips twitched. He hadn't expected someone with such powerful cultivation to have such a perverse sense of humor.

Upon seeing Li Qing emerge unharmed, the spirit of the medicine cauldron urged, "Time is running out. We can discuss these matters outside. Now, hurry and help me escape. I am at the bottom of the medicine tower in the inner hall."

Following the guidance of the spirit of the medicine cauldron, Li Qing quickly found the medicine refining tower. Beneath the tower was a fire vein, where endless fire energy was accumulating underground.

Not long after, the old Daoist Chuyun chased after the old woman surnamed Wen back to the inner hall. This time, he saw Li Qing and hurriedly shouted, "Fellow Daoist, stop this old woman Wen! She has obtained a Daoist treasure map. Let's join forces to subdue her and share what is recorded in the map!"

The old woman surnamed Wen's expression changed, and she quickly turned around, not daring to approach Li Qing's location again.

If Li Qing didn't know the inside story, he might have actually stopped the old woman, but right now he had no intention of doing so, and didn't even glance at her.

Seeing Li Qing's indifference, the old woman surnamed Wen smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist is truly kind and righteous. When you come to Xuanfeng Continent as a guest in the future, I will certainly treat you well."

Boom!

The alchemy tower in front of Li Qing opened, and a scorching aura surged out from it. Li Qing stepped into the tower.

This scene left the old Taoist priest, Chu Yun, stunned. He had searched all the towers in the area and found that none of them could be opened. He couldn't understand how Li Qing had managed to do it.

But soon, the alchemy tower was closed again, and it was no longer possible to enter.

Despite his injuries, the old Taoist priest Chuyun gritted his teeth and continued to pursue the old woman surnamed Wen. He had witnessed Li Qing's methods firsthand, and with two powerful spiritual treasures in his possession, he was not confident that he could defeat him.

call out!call out!
Two streaks of light darted through the inner hall, then rushed out again, heading straight for the top of the Myriad Treasures Ancient Realm. It seemed they wouldn't be returning anytime soon.

Li Qing had already entered the bottom layer of the alchemy tower. A huge medicine cauldron completely occupied this underground space. All around it, spiritual golden chains firmly held the medicine cauldron in place, making it unable to move. It looked as if the tower was suppressing the medicine cauldron.

This medicine cauldron is dark purple all over, reflecting the luster of jade, as if it were made from some kind of precious jade.

"As you can see, I am suppressed at the bottom of this alchemy tower by that old ghost Wanbao, and I cannot move at all." "These spirit gold chains are secondary. The most troublesome thing is the divine-suppressing spell engraved on the tower wall. Once I try to break free, the divine-suppressing spell will be activated and obliterate my intelligence."

“Fellow Daoist, you cultivate the Law of Chaos. You can directly use the power of the Law to erase the divine-suppressing spell on the tower wall, returning it to its original chaotic state. In this way, I can try to break through the tower’s seal.”

Upon hearing this, Li Qing did not rush to act, but cautiously inquired, "I have heard that once a soul is refined into a weapon spirit, it will lose its self-awareness and become confused. How did you regain your self-awareness?"

The spirit of the medicine cauldron scoffed, "At first, I was indeed in a daze and could only act on instinct. But after being suppressed here for so long, even a pig would have become a spirit by now. It's not unbelievable that I regained my consciousness and memories."

That's true. After thinking for a while, Li Qing said, "Alright, then I'll try to use the power of the Chaos Law to erase the forbidden spell on this tower wall."

As he spoke, a world-shaking aura surged from Li Qing's body, and in his palm, a wisp of chaotic power was intertwining.

"It truly is the Law of Chaos. I wonder how you cultivated it. This is one of the most difficult laws to cultivate among the three thousand laws of the Great Dao," the spirit of the medicine cauldron exclaimed.

The stronger the laws one cultivates, the more terrifying one's combat power will be after advancing to the Mahayana stage, because the power of laws that can be mobilized at the Mahayana stage is even more terrifying.

Ignoring the other person's exclamation, Li Qing placed his hand on the tower wall with utmost concentration.

hum!
The entire alchemy tower trembled, and soon, a layer of intricate and profound incantations appeared on the tower wall.

Forbidden God Spell!
Li Qing didn't rush to erase them, but instead memorized these incantations. He could try to comprehend them in the future, and perhaps he could even master them.

There are twelve incantations on the tower wall, which constitute the complete incantation to banish gods.

After thoroughly memorizing the twelve incantations, Li Qing poured the power of the Chaos Laws onto the tower walls.

Although the power of the chaotic laws he could summon was still quite weak, its effect was extremely obvious. Almost instantly, the incantation of the God-Suppressing Spell began to fade away.

"Excellent! As expected of the Chaos Law, it is undoubtedly the most domineering law power among the Three Thousand Great Daos."

"I really can't imagine who in this world will be your match after you advance to the Mahayana stage."

"However, you must be careful. I've heard that after you've mastered the Chaos Law, the great tribulations you'll face in the future will all involve Chaos Divine Lightning, which is the most terrifying kind of heavenly lightning."

Li Qing didn't care about this. The Chaos Dao Seed in his body had already taken root and sprouted. Even if he encountered the Chaos Divine Lightning Tribulation in the future, he would not be afraid. On the contrary, he could absorb the chaotic power contained in the heavenly lightning as nourishment for the Chaos Dao Seed.

To be honest, the great calamity to come is the last thing Li Qing needs to worry about. Coupled with his near-infinite lifespan, he is now truly living as long as heaven and earth, shining as brightly as the sun and moon.

Even the Great Heavenly Tribulation couldn't harm him; in fact, the more tribulations he experienced, the stronger he became. This was the power of the "Chaos Seed Dao Technique" left to him by the Demon Lord—he had been completely and clearly arranged for.

Li Qing remained silent, focusing solely on erasing the forbidden incantations on the tower walls. At this point, only seven of the twelve incantations remained, demonstrating the extraordinary effectiveness of the Chaos Law.

Sonorous! Sonorous!
As the incantations faded away, the massive dark purple jade cauldron began to tremble, breaking through the spiritual gold chains and breaching its seal.

The entire alchemy tower was shaking more and more violently, and it looked like it was about to collapse at any moment. From the outside, the towering giant tower looked like it was about to fall.

The sixth incantation is obliterated!
boom!
The aura released by the medicine cauldron suddenly intensified, and the underground fire vein was completely drained, with all the fire energy inside being devoured.

"Keep going, kid! I feel like I can control the cauldron now. I'm finally free!"

If you look down into the massive purple cauldron below, you will see a phantom-like, slender figure gradually emerge. It is a woman with a beautiful face, a heroic and spirited demeanor, and long hair that flows freely.

Li Qing merely glanced at it casually before continuing to unleash the power of the Chaos Laws.

His true essence was greatly depleted. This was the first time he had ever relentlessly activated the laws like this. Even with his current abundant magical power, he was finding it difficult to keep up.

Fortunately, only three incantations of the God-Suppressing Spell remained, and the chains binding the cauldron broke off one by one, about to be completely freed.

Li Qing, on the other hand, went all out and mobilized the Chaos Laws he could to the highest degree.

boom!
The incantations of the three forbidden spells were rapidly worn away, and the magical power within his body gradually dwindled.

Finally, the moment the last incantation disappeared from the tower wall, the entire alchemy tower collapsed with a roar.

Immediately afterwards, a massive dark purple jade cauldron rose into the air, spinning rapidly amidst intense flames.

The entire inner sanctuary seemed to have been hit by a massive earthquake at that moment, with all the towers shaking violently.

"Hahaha, after all these years, I can finally see the light of day again!"

"Damn that old devil Wanbao, he died so young. I'm really not satisfied that I didn't get to skin him alive with my own hands."

"But it's all for the best. If that old ghost were alive, I might not have had a chance to regain my freedom."

Accompanied by a burst of carefree laughter, a phantom-like, slender figure stood atop the purple jade cauldron. She was the Mahayana cultivator who had been refined into the spirit of the cauldron by the Ancestor of Myriad Treasures.

A short while later, the woman turned around, looking down at Li Qing as he emerged from the ruins. She nodded with satisfaction and smiled, "Young man, you're not bad. Keeping your promise deserves a reward. There's not much time left, so I'll take you to find the four rare artifacts of this world's rules."

"However, because time was too tight and your magic power was greatly depleted, it would be good if you could obtain two rare items of the rules. Don't complain that it's not enough."

Hearing this, Li Qing naturally wouldn't ask for anything more; he would be content as long as the other party kept their promise.

"Thank you very much, senior. Then I will trouble you to lead the way for me!"
