Immortal weapon refiner

Chapter 752 Freshmen
The poison of the Heart of Heavenly Poison was far more troublesome than Li Qing had imagined. Even though he had made full preparations for it, he still encountered danger several times.

In the cave of Qingyun Peak, Li Qing's breath was extremely weak at one point, and he was close to death.

If the true meaning of the withered tree coming back to life in the "Daojie Wuji Sutra" was not powerful enough, it would have allowed Li Qing to summon a breath of life from desperate situations in time every time.

Amidst one dangerous situation after another, Li Qing's body finally began to gradually adapt to the invasion of this poison and underwent transformation bit by bit.

Li Qing accumulated every bit of vitality he had refined and stored it in a corner of his body.

He was not in a hurry to use this to resist the erosion of the poison in his body, but instead maintained his condition at a minimum.

After repeating this process over and over again, almost a year had passed without me noticing.

For a whole year, Li Qing was in this dying state.

If someone entered his cave, they would be shocked to find that the figure sitting cross-legged on the cushion had almost turned into a pile of dry bones.

The dry bones were still covered with light green hair, and there was no sign of life at all, as if they had been dead for a long time.

But Li Qing is certainly not dead. He is still accumulating strength for his new life, waiting for the arrival of the final transformation moment.

It’s just that the process takes a long time, much longer than the previous two transformations.

Li Qing had no idea how long it would take for the final transformation to arrive. He could only silently accumulate the vitality that was tempered by this body.

Time flies, and another year has passed.

The number of demons invading from the Great Wilderness in the south increased. Without the Lingyun Sect’s full-scale resistance, most of the Qingling Territory fell completely and became a demonic land.

These demonized human monks are extremely powerful, far surpassing monks of the same level.

And after accepting the demonic energy infusion into the body, the temperament will change completely, as if it is a different person. Even the most gentle and frugal cultivator will become incomparably cold and cruel after being transformed into a demon.

Under such circumstances, most of the independent cultivators and the immortal cultivation families in the Qingling Domain all retreated to the range of Lingyun Sect's power.

"Why is Lingyun Sect still just defending?! Under the rampage of the demons, our training grounds are in ruins."

"Alas, stop talking. The cave where I have practiced for many years has been destroyed."

“Perhaps Lingyun Sect has its own considerations. After all, the demon clan is very powerful now. If they provoke one or two Nascent Soul stage demons, even Lingyun Sect will not be able to withstand it.”

"That being said, what's the point of just defending our own mountain gate? The demons are constantly expanding and will eventually attack us."

"Yes, the Cuiling Mountains were completely destroyed a few days ago, and those monks who have been infused with demonic energy are still causing chaos."

The independent cultivators who retreated to the vicinity of Lingyun Sect were constantly complaining, thinking that Lingyun Sect, which was so powerful, had not done anything in such a situation.

All of a sudden, the prestige of this immortal sect that had dominated the Qingling Region for many years continued to decline in the eyes of these independent cultivators, and it almost reached a freezing point.

Lingyun Sect naturally anticipated this situation.

Not only were there complaints from the outside world, but even the disciples within the sect felt aggrieved and angry.

But there was no way. The sect’s top leaders just remained silent and refused to launch a counterattack against those demonized human cultivators no matter what.

It was only because they knew that Patriarch Wuji had not yet officially come out of seclusion, so this battle could not be fought under any circumstances. Once the war started, it would attract more powerful demons and the consequences would be disastrous.

It was in this depressing atmosphere that a visitor came to the Lingyun Sect’s mountain gate.

"I am Yuanbao Zhenren from Wanbao Tower, and I am here to pay you a visit. I hope Senior Wuji will show up to see you!"

Yuanbao Zhenren, who had met Li Qing once, came again, but this time it was not Li Qing who met him, but Lingyun Sect's leader Xu Xia and supreme elder Wu Chong.

Yuan Bao Zhenren was slightly stunned when he saw this, and then he said: "My two fellow Taoists from Lingyun Sect, could it be that Senior Wuji did not return to your sect?"

Xu Xia and Wu Chong looked at each other and then shook their heads at the same time.

"No, Patriarch Wuji hasn't returned to the sect for a long time, and we are very anxious!"

Wu Chong also said with a worried look on his face: "Is there no news about him in Wanbao Tower? If he came back, why would we stay in the sect? We would have organized people to eliminate those half-human and half-ghost demon cultivators long ago."

At least since Li Qing has not come out yet, they will not leak any information about him.

Now Li Qing is injured and is still recuperating in the cave. This matter is a top secret even within Lingyun Sect.

Apart from the Sect Master and the Grand Elder, only a handful of people knew about it, and these people were all under strict surveillance within the sect, so the matter would never be leaked.

Upon hearing this, Master Yuanbao's expression slightly changed, and then he sighed and said, "Senior Wuji was invited to Tianji Island to discuss strategies to deal with the demons, but later a demon in the God Transformation Stage attacked us."

“The two fellow Taoists from Lingyun Sect don’t have to worry too much. It’s not necessarily that Senior Wuji encountered an accident. At least the ancestor of my Wanbao Chamber of Commerce and other powerful gods repelled the attack of the demons at that time.”

After hearing what Master Yuanbao said, Xu Xia and Wu Chong both revealed an unconcealable shock on their faces.

They finally understood why Li Qing was so seriously injured. After returning to the sect, he even had difficulty maintaining air flight. It turned out that he had encountered such a great disaster.

The thought of an ancient demon in the Spirit Transformation Stage attacking gave me chills just from thinking about it.

After a long while, Wu Chong sighed deeply and asked, "So what is the purpose of Daoist Yuanbao's visit this time?"

Yuan Bao Zhenren smiled bitterly and said, "The strategy for dealing with the ancient demon that we discussed on Tianji Island has finally come to fruition."

"But this matter still requires Senior Wuji's cooperation. If Senior Wuji were here, then this matter would be easier to deal with. For now."

The meaning is very clear, that is, to carry out this plan, at least a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage is needed to cooperate.

Wu Chong and Xu Xia naturally didn't know what the specific plan was, but they still clasped their fists and said generously: "If you need any help from our Lingyun Sect, just ask. If there is any way we can help, we will definitely do our best."

"Then I would like to thank you in advance, but the time is not right yet, so this matter needs to be kept secret. When the time is right, I will explain the matter in detail. I hope your clan will be willing to help you then."

In response to this, the two of them naturally agreed first.

After finally sending away Yuanbao Zhenren of Wanbao Tower, Xu Xia and Wu Chong decided to inform Li Qing about this in advance to see what the ancestor's attitude was.

Outside Qingyun Peak, a divine voice came out slowly: "This is feasible."

Xu Xia and Wu Chong, who were outside Li Qing's cave residence, both breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the telepathic message.

Of course, if they saw Li Qing's appearance at this moment, they would definitely not relax so quickly, but would be horrified.

Because at this moment, Li Qing's body did not look like a living person at all. His whole body had completely turned into rotten bones, covered with thick green hair that stretched out a very long distance. But in his sunken eye sockets, there were two balls of golden light that jumped from time to time. These two balls of light were like golden flames jumping, full of vitality.

"Is the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce finally going to start closing the space rift? It seems that this has gained a considerable advantage. It can even ignore the chaos caused by those ancient demons in the God Transformation Stage."

"It's time for me to speed up as well."

Li Qing muttered to himself, completely ignoring the appearance of his current physical body and not caring about it at all.

The next moment, two balls of golden light began to flow in his eyes, and wisps of spiritual flames leaked out from them.

As the spiritual fire of heaven and earth spread, Li Qing's body instantly spontaneously combusted, and the thick green hair covering it also burned.

boom!
In just a short period of time, Li Qing's body was completely covered by the spiritual fire of heaven and earth!

Xuanhuang True Flame, Soul-Devouring Demonic Flame, Netherworld Cold Fire!
At this moment, three different colored spiritual fires of heaven and earth were burning Li Qing's body madly. A large amount of green smoke came out of his body and then completely dissipated in the air.

In an instant, Li Qing turned into a fire man with spiritual flames burning all over his body.

Under the burning of this spiritual fire of heaven and earth, this old body that had been corroded to the extreme by poison was quickly burned to ashes.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Li Qing's behavior is tantamount to playing with fire and getting burned.

But Li Qing created the "Daojie Wuji Jing" by himself. He knew that every transformation of his was so domineering, and this was the state that the "Daojie Wuji Jing" should seek.

Then, an astonishing burst of vitality broke out.

This was the life essence that Li Qing had accumulated for two full years. He did not use it to resist the erosion of toxins, but accumulated it all and allowed his old body to continue to deteriorate.

After more than two years, Li Qing finally accumulated enough life essence to reshape his new body.

Without any hesitation, he stopped suppressing the essence of life and allowed it to be squandered at will.

Soon, Li Qing, who was originally like a dry bone, was reborn inch by inch of flesh and blood, and he was reshaping his true self.

As vitality spread, Li Qing's flesh and blood gradually filled up.

He successfully survived this poisonous disaster, and the body he reshaped this time was not only stronger than before, but also immune to all poisons.

Of course, Li Qing couldn't guarantee whether he could really resist all the poisons in the world.

But at least he is completely immune to poisons of the level of the Heavenly Poison Body.

Apart from anything else, there should be no poison in the lower world that is more terrifying than the Heavenly Poison Body.

After about several hours, Li Qing's body was finally reshaped. He slowly opened his eyes and then exhaled a long breath.

"Are you finally through this? After two years, I'm finally reborn."

Having said that, the corners of his mouth inadvertently curved into a satisfied arc.

boom!
An obscure aura burst out from his body, and the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth began to riot.

Within the gate area of ​​Qingyun Peak and even the entire Lingyun Sect, the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth seemed to be attracted by something and gathered towards Li Qing's cave.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is chaotic and disordered, and needs to be refined through breathing before it can be transformed into one's own magic power.

But Li Qing had no such concerns at all. He violently and savagely devoured the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that gathered from the surroundings, without caring at all how mottled the spiritual energy was.

In an instant, Li Qing seemed to have turned into a black hole, and all the spiritual energy within an inch of his body surface was absorbed into his body.

Li Qing immediately activated the "Chihuang Burning Heaven Art", and the three spiritual fires of heaven and earth in his body turned into fire rings, refining these vast amounts of spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the purest spiritual power in the shortest time, and then sank into his dantian along the meridians.

At this moment, the Nascent Soul in Li Qing's body gradually became fuller and regained its luster.

"Yes, this new body is very strong. Even if it swallows the spiritual energy of heaven and earth like this, there will be no problem. There is no swelling in the meridians at all."

After an unknown amount of time had passed, this huge tide of spiritual energy finally slowly subsided.

The magic power in Li Qing's body was completely filled, and then a powerful aura emerged.

He is much stronger than before. There is no doubt that he has entered the late Nascent Soul stage!

His cultivation level climbed up a lot again, and he was almost reaching the end of the Nascent Soul realm. Looking at all the Nascent Soul cultivators in the history of the human world, those who could cultivate to the late stage were definitely rare.

Feeling the vast magic power in his body, Li Qing even felt that it was inexhaustible.

He was sure that he no longer had to worry about running out of mana from activating the Wind-Thunder Silver Wings too many times. His mana was now much stronger than when he was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

"I have finally reached the late Nascent Soul stage."

Li Qing was extremely satisfied with the results of this practice. He had not even touched the bottleneck of the late Nascent Soul stage, but he rushed straight through and established himself in this realm.

This shows how much benefit this transformation has brought to him.

Soon, Li Qing restrained his own aura and no longer released it.

The pressure he exudes now is too strong, and all the cultivators in the area surrounding the Lingyun Sect's mountain gate feel a genuine sense of oppression.

After his breath subsided, the celestial phenomena that had been affected by this momentum finally slowly returned to normal.

Such a great cultivator can easily influence the surrounding natural environment.

After a while, Xu Xia's respectful voice came from outside the cave:
"Congratulations to Ancestor Wuji for his great accomplishments!"

This voice of congratulations echoed throughout the entire Lingyun Sect. All the disciples heard it and realized that the previous sensation in the sect must have been caused by their own ancestor!
Then, everyone shouted in unison: "Congratulations to Ancestor Wuji for his great accomplishment!"

They no longer knew what realm Li Qing had reached in his practice, but they were certain that it was definitely an achievement that surpassed the works of nature, and he was definitely the top existence in the entire human world.

"Hahahaha, I've only gained a little understanding. It can't be considered a great achievement."

"Starting today, the entire clan will celebrate for three days. All disciples and elders will have their salaries doubled this month!"

As Li Qing's voice resounded, the entire Lingyun Sect fell into ecstasy!
