Immortal weapon refiner

Chapter 1116 The Origin of the True Spirit
After controlling the Dragon Blood Crocodile with the Snake Eyes of Deception, Li Qing immediately activated the Heavenly Secret Gu in its cave to completely conceal his own Heavenly Secrets.

A celestial beetle with seven-colored spots on its back emerged and began to devour the void.

In no time at all, Li Qing's existence vanished completely, as if he had never been to the Ancient Dragon Realm. Even standing right in front of him, it was difficult to detect his presence.

A Mahayana stage expert can see through the workings of fate. If they were to calculate Li Qing's destiny at this moment, they would only find nothingness, as if this person had never been born into the world.

After doing all this, Li Qing spread out his Wind and Thunder Silver Wings. First, he used the Five Elements Escape Technique to dive into the pool outside the cave and merge with the water. Then, he used the Earth Escape Technique to burrow into the bottom of the pool and travel quickly through the depths of the earth.

And so he fled, breaking free of the earth after traveling countless miles, once again flapping his Wind and Thunder Silver Wings, his figure transforming into a silver stream of light that merged into the void, and soaring away at incredible speed.

call out!
"Senior, shouldn't you tell me now what exactly this so-called Mahayana opportunity is?"

"How come I've never heard of any peerless divine object in the world that can help people advance to the Mahayana stage? Could it be an object from the immortals?"

Li Qing was naturally itching to know what this so-called Mahayana opportunity was.

Jade Spirit Venerable replied leisurely, "There are many things you don't know, but that opportunity is almost as good as something close to immortality."

"Back then, Wanbao Laogui also infiltrated the Ancient Dragon Realm and accidentally discovered a sealed True Spirit Origin. Unfortunately, before he could seize it, the powerful members of the Dragon Clan noticed that an outsider had infiltrated the Ancient Dragon Realm. He had no choice but to remember the location of the beacon and leave in haste."

"If you can refine that true spiritual essence, let alone the Mahayana stage, even attaining enlightenment and ascending to immortality is not impossible!"

Upon hearing this, Li Qing was shocked. He never expected that this so-called great opportunity was actually an extremely complete source of true spirit!

If that's the case, then it really makes sense. If one can refine a true spiritual source, then his Dao fruit will be greatly improved, and any flaws left over from his previous cultivation will be completely corrected, and his Dao fruit will truly be perfected.

By then, entering the Mahayana stage will not be a difficult task at all.

But Li Qing was not blinded by the news. He calmly asked, "Such a precious thing, would it really still be around now, after so many years!"

"I'm not sure either, so I want you to go and see for yourself."

"The manuscript left behind by Wanbao Old Ghost records that the true spiritual source he discovered was in the deep sea and was sealed by a mysterious restriction."

"Originally, he wanted to break the seal and seize the true spirit source himself, but the aura of a powerful dragon clan member came from the sea. In his haste, he could only add several more layers of seals to cover the existence of the true spirit source, and then hurriedly fled the Ancient Dragon Realm."

As he spoke, Jade Spirit Venerable transmitted the location beacon of the True Spirit Origin into Li Qing's sea of ​​consciousness.

"It's about tens of thousands of miles away from where I am, so it's not too far." After seeing the beacon, Li Qing immediately determined the distance between himself and the beacon's location, and then muttered to himself.

The next moment, he changed direction and urged the Wind and Thunder Silver Wings to escape at top speed.

In a short while, Li Qing's figure appeared in the sky above the Star Sea in the Ancient Dragon Realm.

This deep sea is named after the stars because many luminous coral reefs grow in the deep blue waters. Every night, the faint light from the coral reefs shines through the sea surface, just like lighting up stars.

Unfortunately, it was daytime, so Li Qing couldn't appreciate that beautiful and dreamlike scene. He quickly rushed into the deep sea, following the beacon in his sea of ​​consciousness.

During the journey, he used the Kunpeng Technique to transform into a giant Kun in the deep sea, swimming freely in the deep ocean.

He encountered no accidents along the way and soon dived into the depths of the Sea of ​​Stars. Surprisingly, the seabed was not dark, and he could see glowing reefs illuminating the surrounding sea.

Finally, after diving an extremely long distance, Li Qing finally arrived at the location of the beacon.

He looked around at the empty space, where no special energy was visible, and his initial anticipation sank.

"There's nothing here. So many years have passed, it seems that the true spirit source has already been taken by someone else." Li Qing couldn't help but feel a sense of loss.

However, Jade Spirit Venerable transmitted his voice and said, "You are still too green, kid. If Wanbao Old Ghost's methods could be so easily detected by you, his Wanbao Ancient Realm would have been found by his enemies long ago."

"That old ghost created a secret technique called the Heaven-Suppressing Wonder Technique. This technique can not only change the heavens and the earth, but also conceal all energy. Even beings in the Mahayana stage would find it difficult to see the secrets of this technique."

"This place is affected by the Heaven-Binding Technique. It looks no different from the other sea areas around it. We need to find a way to break through it to reveal its true nature."

A forbidden and wondrous technique?

Li Qing frowned slightly, not expecting such a strange technique. However, since it was the method of the Myriad Treasures Ancestor, it was not surprising.

So how can we break free from the influence of this strange technique?
Li Qing tried throwing a few punches underwater. With his domineering physical strength, just a few punches almost triggered an underwater earthquake, and the waves on the surface became several times more violent, like a tsunami.

Forcing it was completely useless; the seabed had collapsed from his punches, yet there were still no signs of any magic being used.

He then tried various offensive methods, from spiritual treasures to his own laws, but none of them could break through that secret technique.

For a moment, Li Qing even began to doubt whether Yu Ji Lingzun was deceiving him. He had smashed the entire seabed to pieces, but he still hadn't seen anything unusual.

"The Heaven-Binding Technique uses the surrounding environment to exert its influence. Try using your treasured cave to collect all the seawater and destroy the deep-sea environment here."

Upon hearing this, Li Qing immediately understood and activated the silver ring on his wrist.

boom!
In an instant, this treasure of the cave world unleashed a powerful attraction, drawing seawater from hundreds of miles around into the cave world in a single moment.

In an instant, a brief vacuum appeared on the seabed.

Immediately afterwards, the seabed below, which Li Qing had reduced to ruins, began to twist and change.

The original fragmented seabed has disappeared, replaced by a deep abyss!
From a distance, this abyss looks like a gaping maw, swallowing everything in its path.

With a deafening roar, the vacuum that had just been filled was once again filled by the boundless seawater. The intense impact had no effect on Li Qing; his figure remained as upright and unmoving as a towering pine tree.

Li Qing stared at the newly appeared abyss, his brows furrowing instantly. He felt his mind wavering, as if he were about to fall into the abyss.

"That's right, this is it. It truly is a forbidden technique. What that old ghost Wanbao said was true. There is indeed something strange about this place!" Jade Spirit Venerable said quickly.

"Could the true source of the spirit be located within this abyss?" Li Qing frowned, then lowered his body slightly, focusing his divine sense on his eyes, trying to see clearly what was happening inside this dark seabed abyss. But at that moment, an irresistible attraction erupted from the abyss!

Boom!

Millions of hectares of seawater poured into this deep sea abyss. Li Qing looked surprised and tried to escape, but he found that the attraction was not so simple. Even when he used all his magic power to resist, he could not break free.

"No, something's wrong with this location. It's like a Pixiu swallowing wealth!"

Li Qing was shocked, but quickly understood the strangeness of the place. It turned out to be an extremely dangerous location, known in feng shui as the Pixiu swallowing wealth.

Soon, his figure plunged into the deep abyss of the sea, as if a mythical beast had opened its mouth and swallowed him whole.

It is unknown how much time passed, but the abyss at the bottom of the sea closed up again, leaving only a narrow gap.

Li Qing, who was sucked in, was constantly empowered by the power of chaos. He soon found himself in a strange space. This was no longer the seabed, but a brand new world.

What makes this place so peculiar is that there is no gravity here; seawater and broken rocks fly everywhere, filling the space.

“You must have been swallowed by the Pixiu. Could it be that the so-called true spirit origin is the origin left behind by a Pixiu?” Yu Ji Lingzun was also extremely surprised.

As for Li Qing, his expression was solemn. He could indeed sense a supreme aura faintly appearing in this space.

"I thought it was the true dragon's origin, but I didn't expect it to be a Pixiu. Moreover, I feel like I'm being targeted by that origin." A hint of apprehension appeared in Li Qing's eyes.

Jade Spirit Venerable seemed to suddenly realize something, then gritted his teeth and said, "Hiss, I think I understand now. This might be another trap left by that old devil Wanbao."

"This so-called true spiritual origin has not been sealed, but is in an active state."

"He deliberately recorded in his notes that the true spirit source was sealed, making people mistakenly believe that it could be taken away easily! That damned old ghost Wanbao, he's been dead for so many years, yet he still tricked me again."

Without her saying anything, Li Qing had already seen a light yellow Pixiu step out from the space in front of him. The appearance of this Pixiu was somewhat rough, probably because it no longer had a physical body and only its essence remained, so its body lines were very blurry.

Even so, this Pixiu gave Li Qing an extremely dangerous feeling!

"Roar!"

The Pixiu stared at Li Qing with eyes that resembled those of someone eyeing a delicious meal. After hesitating for a moment, the Pixiu finally charged at Li Qing.

"Kid, good luck to you. You want to refine the essence of the Pixiu, but it seems that this Pixiu also wants to refine you."

"However, it is an inanimate object after all. This source can only act based on its instincts from its previous life. It has no true intelligence. This is probably your only chance."

Li Qing, however, felt no relief whatsoever. Even if it was an inanimate object, it was still a genuine spirit.

Although it is unknown what level this Pixiu reached in its previous life, it was at least a Mahayana stage being, and this source is the essence of its life's Dao fruit.

boom!
A series of spiritual flames of heaven and earth emerged around Li Qing. With a slight thought, the six spiritual flames of heaven and earth temporarily merged into one, transforming into a six-colored fire lotus.

As the fire lotus spun, a trail of flame swept towards the Pixiu that was charging towards him.

Just as Jade Spirit Lord said, the Pixiu's original nature was reduced to instinct, wanting to devour anything it saw.

It's not that the Pixiu was so thirsty, because the abyss had been sealed by the Heaven-Suppressing Technique of the Ancestor Wanbao for too long, and it hadn't eaten for who knows how many years. Now that it saw Li Qing, a creature with abundant blood and energy, it was naturally extremely hungry.

The fire lotus that Li Qing had just condensed was swallowed whole by this Pixiu.

Snapped!
The next moment, Li Qing snapped his fingers crisply, and the six-colored fire lotus exploded with a bang, with endless flames sweeping out and raging inside the Pixiu's belly.

But even such a fierce attack did not damage it, which made Li Qing's heart jump.

Before he could remain surprised any longer, the Pixiu charged forward again with overwhelming momentum, as if it wouldn't stop until it devoured Li Qing.

Without saying a word, he immediately summoned the Immortal-Slaying Sword!

Sonorous!

A destructive sword light, imbued with the power of chaos, slashed out from in front of him, instantly annihilating all the seawater and shattered rocks in its path.

This was a sword aura containing the laws of destruction, and Li Qing didn't believe that the Pixiu's essence could swallow and digest it.

Sure enough, the Pixiu swallowed the destructive sword energy in one gulp, but before it could digest it, the destructive power fused with the laws of chaos erupted, injuring it!
There is always something that can subdue something else; even a Pixiu at the Mahayana stage cannot swallow everything.

Seeing the extraordinary effect of the Immortal-Slaying Sword, Li Qingxin felt somewhat relieved. At least it wasn't a true Mahayana stage spirit, but merely a source that could only act on instinct.

He swept two fingers across the blade of the Immortal-Slaying Sword, and dense chaotic power merged into the killing sword.

"kill!"

A chilling killing intent flashed in Li Qing's eyes. He shot out with his figure, wielding the Immortal-Slaying Sword, and slashed down at the light yellow Pixiu as if splitting the heavens with a single strike.

A destructive sword light struck before the blade, followed closely by the Immortal-Slaying Sword.

Seeing that he was about to severely injure the Pixiu, Li Qing felt a slight chill and had a bad feeling.

The Pixiu below suddenly opened its mouth, and the terrifying attraction from before surged forth once more.

"not good!"

The destructive sword light slashed down, but at most it broke one of his teeth. Li Qing, who was holding the Immortal-Slaying Sword, was swallowed whole.

boom!
The Pixiu closed its mouth, and the chaotic space fell silent once more.
