I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 662 News
Right Commandant's Office.

Xia Daoming sat high on the throne, with Ji Wufeng and Rong Yuan sitting upright on his left and right sides.

Zhu Qiluo, who outwardly appeared aloof and indifferent, was now respectfully holding a jade slip.

"Master, this is the method for refining the Nine Profound Golden Embryo Pill that I copied down."

"Nine Profound Golden Embryo Pill!"

Ji Wufeng and Rong Yuan were greatly shocked upon hearing this.

The Nine Profound Golden Embryo Pill is a legendary elixir that helps true immortals attain the Golden Immortal Dao. Even Golden Immortals would fight tooth and nail for this pill.

"Very good, I'll remember this merit!" Xia Daoming's eyes lit up slightly, and with a slight lift of his hand, the jade slip flew up and landed in his palm.

Seeing that Xia Daoming had accepted the pill formula, Zhu Qiluo hesitated for a moment, then cautiously said, "Reporting to Master, when I returned this time, I privately inquired with the Ancestor. From what he said, this Nine Profound Golden Embryo Pill is extremely difficult to refine. Even if he personally takes action, there is only a 50% chance that a single Nine Heavens Profound Grass can produce two Nine Profound Golden Embryo Pills, and a 95% chance that only one will be produced."

"The Nine Heavens Mystic Herb is extremely rare and hard to come by. Perhaps I could ask my ancestor to help refine it? You can promise him that if he can refine two Nine Heavens Golden Embryo Pills, he will receive one as a reward; if he only manages one, he will receive nothing. Given the rarity of the Nine Heavens Golden Embryo Pill, even with only a 50% chance of getting one, he would surely agree to help you refine it."

“The Zhu family of Danxia Mountain is famous in Qionghua County for their alchemy skills, and your ancestor’s alchemy expertise is beyond doubt. However, since this Nine Heavens Mystic Herb is obtained from the Nine Heavens Mystic Fire, it would be safer for me to refine it myself after I have refined the Nine Heavens Mystic Fire,” Xia Daoming said after thinking for a moment.

When Zhu Qiluo saw that Xia Daoming had rejected her proposal, a fleeting look of disappointment crossed her eyes.

With a wisp of true spirit entering the Myriad Immortals Banner, Zhu Qiluo naturally dared not deceive Xia Daoming; what she had just said was sincere advice.

If Xia Daoming agrees, and her ancestor can indeed refine two, then there is a good chance that the other one will fall into her hands.

This could be considered a bit of her personal motive!
Unfortunately, she didn't know that Xia Daoming himself was quite skilled in alchemy and possessed various kinds of true fire and true water. If he waited for the Nine Heavens Profound Fire to nurture a divine weapon and his cultivation to become even more profound before refining the Nine Profound Golden Embryo Pill, his success rate would definitely be no less than that of the Zhu family patriarch.

Upon hearing this, Ji Wufeng and Rong Yuan's minds went blank, and they were almost unable to think straight.

When Zhu Qiluo presented the elixir formula, they were only shocked and didn't think much of it.

After all, the Nine Profound Golden Embryo Pill was still too far away for them.

As a result, they never dreamed that their master actually had the main ingredient for refining the Nine Profound Golden Embryo Pill!

If in the past, they followed Xia Daoming only because they saw a glimmer of hope that they would attain the Golden Immortal Path in the future!
Now it's not just a glimmer of hope, it's a great deal of hope!

They had been following Xia Daoming in the lower realm, and their understanding of him was many times deeper than that of Zhu Qiluo.

The master is only a Sixth-Level True Immortal now, yet he already possesses the main ingredient for refining the Nine Profound Golden Embryo Pill. His future potential is unimaginable!

"My lord is wise!" Zhu Qiluo naturally didn't think too much about it. She quickly suppressed the disappointment in her heart, bowed and flattered him, and then said, "In addition to this pill formula, I have also brought news about Lingzu Mountain and Jiuyan Mountain Huoyun Mansion on this trip."

"Oh, tell me quickly!" Xia Daoming's face lit up with excitement upon hearing this, and he urged him on.

Seeing Xia Daoming lose his composure, Zhu Qiluo felt inexplicably moved. She thought to herself, "It seems that Master is a man of great loyalty and affection, and with such great abilities, becoming his master might not be a bad thing. On the contrary, it might be an opportunity."

Thinking to herself, Zhu Qiluo became even more respectful and said, "According to my ancestor, Lingzu Mountain is indeed in the Southern Flame Immortal Domain, and its power is far beyond that of my Danxia Mountain! However, he did not know exactly where it was in the Southern Flame Immortal Domain."

"It's alright, as long as it's in the Southern Flame Immortal Domain. As for the specific location within the Southern Flame Immortal Domain, since Lingzu Mountain is so powerful, I'll naturally be able to find out once I get there. Please continue with Nine Flame Mountain and Fire Cloud Mansion," Xia Daoming said.

His biggest worry now is that Lingzu Mountain, like Jiuyan Mountain and Huoyun Mansion, will be lost in the long river of time and become impossible to find.

Now that he knows that Lingzu Mountain is indeed located in the Southern Flame Immortal Domain and has a powerful influence, he feels much more at ease. As for the rest, with his current strength, it's impossible for him to cross the vast ocean to reach the Southern Flame Immortal Domain, so worrying about it is futile.

"Yes, Master!" Zhu Qiluo bowed slightly and continued, "The Fire Cloud Mansion of Nine Flames Mountain is located in Yanyang County of Xuanyue Prefecture. It is said that it suffered a catastrophe more than 200,000 years ago. Not only was the Fire Cloud Mansion reduced to ashes, but Nine Flames Mountain was also renamed Lieyao Mountain. Because the Fire Cloud Mansion, like my Zhu family, is also skilled in the way of fire, some records of the Fire Cloud Mansion are still preserved in the ancient scrolls of the Zhu family."

"No wonder I couldn't find out anything about the Nine Flame Mountain Fire Cloud Mansion before! This news is very important to me, Zhu Qiluo, you have done a great service again." Xia Daoming was very happy to receive the definite news about the Nine Flame Mountain Fire Cloud Mansion, and his gaze towards Zhu Qiluo became much more affectionate.

However, despite his joy, Xia Daoming became somewhat worried.

"I have always been fair in rewarding and punishing, and you have made great contributions, so I should reward you. However, you are a prodigy of the Zhu family, and you should not lack cultivation resources. What reward should I give you?"

"It is my honor to serve you, sir. I ask for no reward!" Zhu Qiluo quickly bowed and said.

“Those who make mistakes must be punished, and those who make merits must be rewarded!” Xia Daoming waved his hand and stroked his chin as he pondered.

Seeing Xia Daoming seriously considering the reward, Zhu Qiluo felt both grateful and somewhat amused.

She is the pride of the Zhu family. What reward can Xia Daoming possibly give her now that he has the status he deserves?
“Well then, since you are skilled in the Way of Fire, and I happen to have some understanding of it as well, I will teach you the Way of Fire as a reward today!” Xia Daoming said.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Qiluo's expression became somewhat subtle.

She admitted that the master was very powerful, and even killed three geniuses, Luo Ao, Cang Ming and Tuoba Gang, who were slightly stronger than her!

But the master is only a sixth-level True Immortal after all. He was able to kill Cangming and others mainly by using his body-refining supernatural powers. She, on the other hand, is at the peak of the tenth level and is a potential Golden Immortal. She usually has the opportunity to listen to the Golden Immortal Ancestor of the Zhu family personally teach and answer her questions!

It would be more appropriate for her to explain the mysteries of fire to the master!

Of course, even if Zhu Qiluo had the audacity to utter such disrespectful words, she wouldn't dare.

Not only did she not dare to say it aloud, Zhu Qiluo's expression immediately changed to one of gratitude and respect: "This servant is all ears to listen to your teachings, Master!"

Xia Daoming gave Zhu Qiluo a meaningful look, which made her feel inexplicably guilty.

"You two can stay and listen too. Try to understand as much as you can," Xia Daoming said to Ji Wufeng and Rong Yuan.

Their cultivation levels were still far inferior to Zhu Qiluo's.

The teachings he imparted today were primarily aimed at Zhu Qiluo, and were certainly profound, mysterious, and difficult to understand for the two of them.

"Thank you, sir!" Ji Wufeng and Rong Yuan were overjoyed upon hearing this and bowed quickly.

Zhu Qiluo's heart skipped a beat at the reactions of Ji Wufeng and Rong Yuan, and she vaguely felt that something was amiss.

However, Zhu Qiluo had no time to think about it in detail. Instead, she quickly sat up straight because Xia Daoming was about to give his teachings.

At first, Zhu Qiluo didn't feel anything special.

But as Xia Daoming slowly recounted his story, step by step delving deeper, Zhu Qiluo's expressions began to become increasingly rich and varied.

Sometimes frowning, sometimes pondering, sometimes relieved, sometimes joyful, sometimes in a daze...

　That concludes today's update.
