Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

Chapter 66 Cold-Hearted Serpent Demon
Qingshui Riverside.

After removing the canopy of the Netherworld, Gu Qing used his Fiery Dragon True Essence to conjure a fiery rope, which he used to bind Si Ji and hold her in his hand.

Suspended above the river, its sound is like thunder.

"Snake demon, your sister is in my hands, why don't you show yourself?"

Si Ji also cooperated by letting out a shrill scream.

"Brother, do not come! This man is a disciple of Baiyue Mountain."

"Come on!"

The bottom of the Qingshui River.

Two frost snakes, each over twenty meters long, were coiled up in the water palace, calculating their days.

"The delivery date is just a few days away."

"That magistrate is a ruthless man; he harmed so many people for his mother's sake."

"Hahaha, without him, how could you and I, brothers, have made such rapid progress?"

"The resources obtained from selling meat pills in the past three years are more than those obtained in the previous decades."

"If you ask me, the human race should have more filial sons. Using demonic power to prolong life, how could he even think of that?"

"Hahahaha, that old woman will become a demon slave sooner or later. With her help, Qingshui Town will be ours."

"Don't forget about Third Sister."

"My elder brother is right, but I always feel that my third sister is a bit too soft-hearted."

"We are of the same clan after all. Whether we can form a clan in the future depends on our third sister. If that day comes, we brothers can also become the kings of the clan."

Although the two demons had some feelings for Si Ji, they didn't have many. They mostly saw her as a breeding tool to expand their clan.

There are more than just these three Cold-Li Snakes.

In the territory of the demon race, there is no shortage of groups composed of Cold-Li Snakes, but they do not accept wild demons from outside, so they can only form their own race.

Their lack of a solid foundation is evident in their actions.

however.

The sudden sound from the river made the two brothers look at each other in bewilderment.

"Disciples of Baiyue Mountain?"

"Why is that? Didn't the magistrate cover it up?"

"What are you afraid of?"

"Baiyue Mountain doesn't know our background and won't send a seventh-grade cultivator. Third sister, we can't give up. If the two of us work together, why should we be afraid of an eighth-grade cultivator?"

The two snake demons said that, but Baiyue Mountain had a great reputation.

In the end, it was the eldest brother who stepped forward first to test Gu Qing's background.

…………

…………

"Hey, are you saying those two snakes won't run away?"

Si Ji was taken aback.

Lacking knowledge of the common sense of the cultivation world, she was unaware of the immense size of Baiyue Mountain, and murmured an explanation.

"My siblings have a deep bond; they won't abandon me."

"hope so."

Gu Qing gave Si Ji a deep look, hoping she wouldn't do anything irrational.

Boom————

The river burst open, and a giant, light blue snake sprang out, speaking in human language.

"Who are you, you scoundrel? Do you know that the Clear Water River is the territory of the Demon Lord Han Li?"

"Monster?"

Gu Qing smiled dismissively.

The Demon King is the king of a race, and he must be at least at the seventh rank, with the most powerful among them even reaching the sixth rank.

The Demon Lord is a legendary celestial demon, with a cultivation level as high as the fourth rank.

They are now ready to ascend to the demon realm.

"He's just a clueless little demon, yet he dares to call himself a demon lord."

Make a hand seal with one hand.

This was the first time Gu Qing had used the Fire Dragon Technique at its peak.

The crimson flames seemed to ignite the entire sky.

Like heavenly fire descending upon the world, covering and suppressing the eight directions.

Amidst the resounding roars of dragons, countless blazing dragons, each thirty to forty meters long, formed a nine-palace formation and attacked the Cold Serpent Demon. "What!"

Both being at the mid-level of the eighth rank, the Hanli Snake Demon had no background or outstanding inheritance, making him just a lowly soldier in the demon race's forces.

Having cultivated to this point, he has relied entirely on the magical techniques passed down through his bloodline to wreak havoc.

The only thing I can offer is the cultivation technique I obtained from the Black Dragon King.

The Fire Dragon Technique that Gu Qing used was a high-grade spell.

Don't be fooled by the fact that he only needs 1 contribution point to exchange for it from the Sword Forging Manor's library; in the outside world, it's a killer weapon that many independent cultivators dream of.

This is the advantage of having a powerful backer.

Apart from some secret teachings, all inheritances can be obtained through contributions from the sect, making the sect platform extremely important.

He studied and mastered this technique for several years.

Gu Qing possesses exceptional talent in fire-based magic, and the added advantage of his innate fire spirit body further amplifies the ferocity of the fire dragon.

Now, when he unleashes his power, he displays a resemblance to the might of the Flame Lord.

The raging flames engulfed the Cold Serpent Demon.

It could only unleash its icy demonic power to resist the scorching flames. It already regretted not heeding its third sister's advice; its sister was truly better.

The second brother had looked scared, so the eldest brother, for the sake of his reputation, had no choice but to come out and test him.

But then a tough opponent appeared.

"No, I can't beat him."

Something moved in my heart.

The snake demon leader flicked its tail, and a scale fell from it, sinking deep into the riverbed, carrying with it a shocking message.

"Second brother, come quick, it's a weakling."

"A handsome young man with a sweet scent."

The bottom of the Qingshui River.

Although this river is only a tributary of the Jinsha River, its deepest point is over 100 meters, and the water is crystal clear.

However, when the snake demon leader came up, he stirred up a lot of mud and sand.

This has caused the river water to become completely murky.

No matter how powerful Gu Qing's magic was, it was impossible for him to boil the river water, so the second snake demon was unaware of the situation above.

As for divine consciousness, demons only begin to refine their divine consciousness when they reach the eighth rank, which is one realm later than human cultivators. This is also related to the speed at which they develop wisdom.

Upon receiving the message from his eldest brother, the second brother rushed out without a second thought.

His mind was filled with images of cultivators' flesh and blood.

This is a very nutritious food; we can't let it be too slow and have our older brother eat too much of it.

puff!

Sensing the movement underwater with his divine sense, Gu Qing didn't hesitate and unleashed his Wind and Fire Swords, creating a stream of sword energy in both blue and red hues.

With a whoosh, it stabbed forward.

Wow!

Water splashed, and a hole was ripped open in the forehead of the second Frost Serpent, which then slithered together with its tail. The Wind and Fire Twin Swords were like toothpicks stuck into a mudfish.

Its tenacious vitality caused the snake's body to continue writhing and struggling.

However, its spiritual wisdom had been scattered by the power of the magical artifact, and its life force had been severed; it was now a dead snake.

"One...one move?"

Si Ji, who was pretending to be captured, even stopped struggling. She had been stabbed once before, but it hadn't hit any vital organs. Now that she remembered...

It's... pretty boring.

Despite possessing such formidable strength, he claimed he needed her assistance. Holding the two Flame Burst Beads in her hand, Si Ji understood something.

Was he testing her? Was he testing whether she harbored resentment because she had been wronged?

Si Ji looked at the young man as if she were staring at a cunning and handsome fox, her thoughts as deep and unfathomable as an abyss.

Little did she know that this was only her perspective, and her personal feelings dominated the majority. She was more overwhelmed by Gu Qing's power, which brought her panic and amplified all her senses towards Gu Qing.

In fact, Gu Qing was also quite surprised.

This was his first mission, and Elder Jiang insisted that he understand the difference between humans and demons, and the difference between races.

Now he has seen it for himself.

"So weak."

Both being mid-level eighth-rank individuals, if Gu Qing went all out, he could kill another fifty of these kinds of people.
