Immortal weapon refiner

Chapter 1092 Returning to the Pavilion
Dark, primordial demonic energy rippled in the sky. The brief connection between the two realms had terrified countless beings, who flocked to the super teleportation array, all wanting to seek refuge on the Tianyuan Continent.

That was the most powerful continent in the Spirit Realm, with various powerful races standing side by side, and an extremely large number of peerless experts at the Mahayana stage.

If we're talking about the safest place after the two worlds are connected, then it would be the Tianyuan Continent. Even if the sky were to fall, there would be tall people to hold it up, so there's no need to worry about the Tianyuan Continent being hit by a severe demonic disaster.

As for other places, it's hard to say. If they fail to withstand the ancient demons of the demon realm, the outcome will be devastation and death.

Looking at the large number of beings from various races gathered in front of the super teleportation array, Li Qing couldn't help but sigh. He no longer concealed his cultivation aura, and his late-stage Nascent Soul spiritual pressure swept out.

boom!
The creatures of all races that had been blocking his way all retreated, making way for him, and looked at his tall figure with awe.

The teleportation array here was guarded by sea creatures. Upon seeing Li Qing approach, these sea creatures all showed respect and asked, "Senior of the human race, do you wish to use this teleportation array to travel to the Tianyuan Continent?"

"Please wait a moment, the teleportation array will be activated again soon!"

Li Qing nodded expressionlessly, said nothing, put his hands behind his back, and silently closed his eyes to calm his mind and rest.

But soon, discontented voices came from outside the teleportation array: "Why is it that this human can step onto the teleportation array before us?"

"Exactly! We were here first, so why should he go up first?"

These voices floated around, making it difficult to pinpoint their origin. Many figures below the teleportation array exchanged bewildered glances, searching for the source of such reckless words.

Upon hearing these discussions, Li Qing suddenly opened his eyes, a cold glint flashing in his pupils, followed by a vast and powerful divine sense covering him.

boom!
Before long, he sneered, then made a clenching motion in the air with his large hand, and quickly pulled out a beast-faced man covered in fur, which was extremely ugly.

The beast-faced Rong tribesman had been looking around, seemingly searching for someone to speak, putting on a convincing act. But Li Qing knew that the dissatisfied voice he had just heard came from him.

"The Rong tribe's telepathy is indeed exquisite. If it weren't for my powerful divine sense, I wouldn't have been able to find you."

"What, you're unhappy that I stepped onto the teleportation array? Why don't you say so now?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a dense aura of malevolence emanated from Li Qing's body. Combined with the terrifying spiritual pressure of his late-stage Nascent Soul cultivation, the Rong Clan member, who was only at the Nascent Soul stage, turned pale and his voice became intermittent.

"No, no, no, it wasn't me! Senior, you've misunderstood! It really wasn't me!"

However, Li Qing spoke in an extremely cold voice: "So you mean I misunderstood you? Well then, I'm sorry, since I've misunderstood you, then I'll just have to ask you to die."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qing's spiritual power surged, and the Rong Clan beast-faced man he had grabbed from afar exploded into a cloud of blood mist before he could even finish speaking.

In an instant, the entire arena fell silent, and all the creatures of all races lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at Li Qing's figure.

Clearly, this human powerhouse is an absolute menace who should not be provoked. He is ruthless and decisive, and acts without any scruples!

That Rong tribesman died in vain; he dared to rely on his innate divine arts to secretly plot against a late-stage Nascent Soul expert. He truly didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.

As a result, no one dared to express any dissatisfaction with Li Qing's cutting in line, since the strongest person in the entire arena, apart from Li Qing, was only at the early stage of the Fusion Realm.

After a while, the teleportation array activated again, and Li Qing finally returned to the outer sea area of ​​Tianyuan Continent.

He subconsciously looked up at the sky and discovered that even the Tianyuan Continent was affected by the merging of the two realms, with a small amount of demonic energy remaining in the sky.

In other words, this time the battlefield between the two worlds might even open directly on the Tianyuan Continent!
"Will even the Tianyuan Continent be connected to the Demon Realm? At that time, won't the entire land be torn to pieces?" Li Qing murmured, then spread his Wind and Thunder Silver Wings and flew straight towards the Tianyuan Continent.

With such a major event occurring, it's impossible for the Dao Palace to remain completely silent. He needs to return to the Refining Heaven Pavilion as soon as possible to see what the human race plans to do next.

Once the battlefield between the two realms opens, even those at the Integration stage will find it difficult to protect themselves, and it is not uncommon for even Mahayana stage experts to perish, especially given how unusual this war between the two realms is.

With the incredible speed of the Wind and Thunder Silver Wings, Li Qing returned to the human territory in just a short while, and without stopping, he headed straight for the Refining Heaven Pavilion.

For a powerful cultivator like him, traveling for several years was not a big deal.

When he returned to the Refining Heaven Pavilion, the atmosphere inside was as usual, not affected too much by the previous celestial anomalies.

Li Qing then went to the Affairs Hall and, using his authority, issued a task to the entire human race to search for spiritual herbs: "Seeking to purchase one Nine-Leaf Profound Spirit Grass! The price is to refine a Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure for it!"

This is definitely a big deal. Helping to refine a Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure is something that even True Spirit Families would be tempted to do once the news gets out.

When the weapon-refining disciples in the Affairs Hall saw the bounty for the mission, their eyes widened in disbelief.

But when they saw that the task was signed by Elder Wuji, they all felt relieved. Oh, it was Elder Wuji. After all, he had refined quite a few Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasures in the Wuji Palace over the years.

A few days later, the mission commission issued by Li Qing through the Refining Heaven Pavilion caused a sensation throughout the entire human territory!
"Hiss, this Wuji Elder of the Refining Heaven Pavilion must be the senior who single-handedly suppressed the entire Yin Yang Sect a few years ago, right?"

"It was him, no doubt. I witnessed the sword light streak across the sky that day."

"A heaven-reaching spiritual treasure! Elder Wuji's weapon-refining skills are so outstanding that he was willing to use it as a price. I wonder what kind of spiritual herb that Nine-Leaf Profound Spirit Grass is. I've never heard of it before."

"Nine-Leaf Mystic Grass can only grow one leaf every thousand years, and it takes at least nine thousand years of medicinal age to grow into a nine-leaf form. I remember this medicine is used to repair Nascent Soul injuries. What does Senior Wuji want this spiritual medicine for?"

"Could it be that Elder Wuji's own nascent soul has been injured, and he needs such a peculiar spiritual medicine to heal it?"

No one knew what Li Qing's true purpose was in wanting the Nine-Leaf Mystic Spirit Grass, but all the human cultivators who saw the quest request were mobilized and began searching for the Nine-Leaf Mystic Spirit Grass.

After all, it is possible to persuade the renowned Elder Wuji to refine a Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure. Such a temptation is not something ordinary people can resist.

Even several True Spirit Families and Longevity Families have taken action, inquiring about the whereabouts of the Nine-Leaf Mystic Spirit Grass from within their respective clans.

However, the Nine-Leaf Mystic Grass has an unusual use, and generally no cultivator would specifically collect and plant one. Those that reach the nine-leaf form are even rarer, and for many days there has been no trace of the Nine-Leaf Mystic Grass.

Li Qing wasn't in a hurry. After issuing the mission, he returned to the Wuji Hall and summoned several of his disciples.

"A demonic calamity is imminent, and this one is far from ordinary. You must all diligently cultivate and strive to increase your strength as much as possible before the great tribulation arrives." "When the battlefield between the two realms opens, even your master may perish."

Upon hearing Li Qing's words, even his personal disciple Li Qiyin became nervous, able to discern from Li Qing's tone just how terrifying this demonic calamity was.

"Follow Master's teachings!"

Li Qing waved his hand, dismissed the disciples, and returned to his quiet room in the hall to begin his cultivation.

Instead of rushing to take pills to improve his cultivation, he began to study the cultivation method of the Chaos Azure Lotus. If he could successfully cultivate this immortal-grade Dharma form, it would greatly enhance his strength.

Before he could even calm down, the Lord of the Refining Heaven Pavilion sent a message to the Wuji Palace, requesting to see him.

"Why is the Pavilion Master summoning me at this time? Is it related to the demonic calamity, or is it because he has news of the Nine-Leaf Mystic Spirit Grass?"

But in either case, you have to go.

Before long, Li Qing arrived at the council hall, where the Pavilion Master of the Refining Heaven Pavilion sat quietly in the head seat.

"Wuji, you've arrived," the Refining Heaven Pavilion Master said first.

Li Qing was slightly taken aback, and then asked, "I traveled abroad a few years ago. I wonder what important matter the Pavilion Master has to discuss with me?"

"I heard you're searching for the Nine-Leaf Mystic Grass. What's wrong? Has your Nascent Soul been injured?"

"No, that's not it. I recently acquired a special and extraordinary skill, and I need to use the Nine-Leaf Mystic Spirit Grass to refine a kind of pill to aid my cultivation," Li Qing casually told a lie.

The Pavilion Master of the Refining Heaven Pavilion did not delve too deeply into the matter. Once he was certain that Li Qing was not injured at the Nascent Soul stage, he nodded and continued, "There are three things I have called you here for. Please listen to me."

"Please speak freely, Pavilion Master."

"Well, the first thing is that I want to pass the position of Pavilion Master of the Heaven Refining Pavilion to you. What do you think?"

The sudden turn of events caused a huge stir. Li Qing was stunned and stood there, completely unprepared for such a scene to unfold here.

"Sect Master, please don't joke around. You are in your prime, and your cultivation has reached the peak of the Integration Stage. Why are you suddenly going to pass on your position?"

"Moreover, I am focused on cultivation and am not good at handling affairs within the pavilion. I am afraid I am not up to the task. Pavilion Master, please choose someone else."

Li Qing's words were not empty words. He truly had no interest in the position of Pavilion Master of the Refining Heaven Pavilion, especially since he had other matters weighing on his mind, making it even less likely that he would accept the position.

Seemingly having anticipated his refusal, the Pavilion Master of Liantian sighed and did not press the matter further.

"I see. Since you have no intention, I won't force you. However, you can't keep declining the position of Supreme Elder. Originally, a grand ceremony should have been held after you advanced to the Integration Stage, but you were either in seclusion or traveling, and you rarely had any free time, which is why it has been delayed until now."

Only those who have advanced to the Integration Stage can serve as the Supreme Elder of the Refining Heaven Pavilion.

However, Li Qing really had no interest in scheming in this regard, and now his position in the pavilion was second only to the pavilion master, so it was just an empty title for him.

Li Qing did not refuse, but accepted it.

"Then I will accept your offer without hesitation. Thank you for your appreciation, Pavilion Master!" Li Qing said, clasping his hands in a fist salute.

The Pavilion Master of the Refining Heaven Pavilion nodded and continued, "Originally, we were supposed to hold a promotion ceremony for you, but due to the special circumstances, we have to skip it. Please don't mind."

"The second thing is related to the Nine-Leaf Mystic Spirit Grass you want. I have an old friend who is a highly skilled alchemist. Her herb garden should have the spiritual medicine you need."

"I'll write you a spiritual letter later, and you can take it to her."

Upon hearing this, Li Qing felt a surge of joy. He hadn't expected to learn about the Nine-Leaf Mystic Grass so quickly.

It has to be said that being part of a powerful force is better than being a lone cultivator fighting alone.

"Then I'll thank you in advance for the introduction, Pavilion Master!"

The Refining Heaven Pavilion Master waved his hand and said, "Hehe, it's a small matter, no need to thank me. Consider it repayment for saving the Refining Heaven Pavilion from the Ghost Horn Clan."

"However, let me make this clear from the start: my old friend is not interested in spiritual treasures, so I can't guarantee whether a deal can actually be reached."

“I know, but what about the third thing?” Li Qing asked, puzzled.

Soon, the Pavilion Master of the Refining Heaven Pavilion became solemn and serious. He said, "As for the third matter, let's wait until I gather all the other Supreme Elders in the Pavilion before discussing it. Please sit down for now."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Pavilion Master of the Refining Heaven Pavilion sent out a series of spiritual letters from the council hall, which landed in the treasure halls where the Supreme Elders resided.

After waiting for a short while, the Supreme Elders who were still in the pavilion all gathered around.

"Greetings, Pavilion Master! Greetings, Elder Wuji!"

"Greetings, Pavilion Master, Brother Wuji, how have you been?"

"."

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the Pavilion Master of the Refining Heaven Pavilion's voice became exceptionally heavy: "Everyone, you all saw that unusual celestial phenomenon a while ago, didn't you? A demonic calamity is coming."

"This demonic calamity is extraordinary. Even the Tianyuan Continent will open a battlefield between the two realms. Some Mahayana stage experts believe that the demonic realm is making a huge move. Our clan's Heavenly Venerable also maintains a pessimistic attitude, thinking that many lives will be lost in this demonic calamity."

"Originally, we should have prepared for this demonic calamity earlier, but some time ago, a Mahayana cultivator from another race approached Taiyuan Tianzun, claiming that he hoped our human race would hand over the method of refining the Chaos Treasure, so as to enhance the strength of all races and fight against the impending demonic calamity."

Upon hearing this, the entire council hall fell silent, and all the elders quieted down.
