Fox Demon: The villain at the beginning

Chapter 381 Dream, Reaction

"Hope everything goes well."

Jin Renfeng looked forward to it in his heart.

However, it didn't take long for the chaotic energy to spread to the edge of the mountain.

"No! I have to take action!"

Seeing this, Dongfang Gu Yue rolled up his sleeves and flew to the front of the Chaos River.

Golden-red flames rose up from his body and transformed into a flame curtain blocking the way ahead.

With this pure Yangyan blocking the way, even the chaotic energy of the Demon King level cannot cross the line.

Just when Dongfang Guyue was ready to stop him with all his strength, the next moment, all his efforts became in vain.

The river formed by the chaotic energy dissipated in an instant, turning into pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth, diffusing in all directions.

At the same time, the spiritual energy vortex that was a thousand feet high in the air shattered out of thin air and turned into wisps of breeze that flowed through the wasteland of the villa.

All the visions disappeared at the same time, just like a dream.

"How is this going?"

Dongfang Guyue looked surprised.

His divine fire didn't touch the chaotic river, so why did it disappear?

"Could it be possible that the boy has mastered his magic?"

Even though he was a powerful Demon King, he couldn't figure out the situation for a while.

In the courtyard, Jin Renfeng looked lost.

His magic power was exhausted.

But he still failed to upgrade the Chaos Purple Gold Gourd to the Demon King level.

“I didn’t expect the gap at this step would be so big.”

Jin Renfeng muttered to himself.

Originally, he thought that the quasi-Demon King-level purple gold gourd was only one step away from the Demon King. As long as he exerted a little effort, he could overcome this obstacle.

But he didn't expect that his powerful magic power of a half-step great demon king, which was among the best in the entire Taoist alliance, was filled in this purple gold gourd without even a splash.

"It seems that I still underestimated the gap between the Demon King and the Quasi-Demon King."

Jin Renfeng sighed.

Ultimately, it is his lack of strength that led to this result.

Powerful magic power is the source of the effectiveness of the Ruyi Weapon Refining Method.

Otherwise, even if his Ruyi weapon refining method was exquisite, without sufficient strength, he would not be able to help the Purple Gold Gourd to advance.

"But fortunately, the power of the purple gold gourd has indeed been improved."

"According to my spiritual sense, I am closer to the Demon King level."

"If we continue like this, there is still hope that we can upgrade the Purple Gold Gourd to the Demon King level by relying on the Ruyi Weapon Refining Method."

"As long as my strength continues to improve, one day I will be able to complete this step of promotion."

"And by then, I will be able to obtain a true magic weapon of the Demon King."

Thinking of this, Jin Renfeng stood up directly from the stone chair, and his depressed mood was lifted again.

Before that, what he needs to do most is to accumulate strength.

Given his talent, that day will definitely not be too far away.

"Renfeng, what is going on?"

Dongfang Gu Yue flew in front of the young man and asked.

Half of the villa was destroyed for no apparent reason, and he also wanted to know the truth behind the matter.

Jin Renfeng glanced at the crowd that was gathering around him and said in a deep voice,

"Master, please spare me a moment to talk."

. . . . . . . .

"What? Are you saying that you are trying to retrain the purple gold gourd?"

Dongfang Guyue said in disbelief.

After sending everyone away and arriving at the Divine Fire Hall, Jin Renfeng explained his actions to his master.

Because the Ruyi weapon refining method involves the Samsara Mirror and cannot be explained in detail, he turned to using the reason of re-refining the magic weapon to cover it up.

But I didn't expect that even with this excuse, my master still couldn't accept it.

"When did you learn how to refine weapons?"

Dongfang Guyue said in surprise.

Huaizhu and the other girls also looked surprised and suspicious. They had been with their senior brother day and night, and they had no idea that he had such a method.

"I figured it out a little bit myself, and also learned a little bit from the Li family on the battlefield. I understand a lot now."

Jin Renfeng used the Li family as an excuse to evade the question.

Dongfang Guyue then remembered that this disciple of his had always had a good relationship with the Li family.

If you are on the battlefield, it is normal to learn a few tricks.

"You used the weapon refining method you learned in less than a few months to refine such a precious magic weapon again?"

Dongfang Guyue questioned.

Jin Renfeng nodded.

"How foolish! What if you broke the magic weapon of the Great Demon King?"

Dongfang Guyue said with great sorrow.

If it was an ordinary magic weapon, he wouldn't be able to say much.

After all, the magic weapon was obtained by someone else himself, so it is his own business how he wants to use it.

But that is the magic weapon of the Great Demon King! It is one of the few in the Dao League.

Among the many Taoist alliance families, its preciousness is even far higher than that of the heads of ordinary families.

Shenhuoshan Villa had a weak foundation to begin with, and it didn't even have a magic weapon that was passed down from generation to generation. It finally got a magic weapon from the Great Demon King, but its own disciple messed it up.

For a moment, Dongfang Guyue was unable to accept it.

"Disciple is not acting rashly!"

The Golden Phoenix Road.

"In fact, I did not touch the gourd itself. I just wanted to add some spells to this natural treasure."

"Spell?"

Dongfang Guyue looked puzzled.

"After the magic weapon is formed, can we continue to add talismans?"

Jin Renfeng explained.

"In order to increase the power of artificially refined magic weapons, many spells and charms are usually engraved on the magic weapon itself."

"However, natural spiritual treasures are created by heaven and earth, and they are all mysterious and self-generated, so they do not need the blessing of talismans."

"But this also leaves room for the depiction of the spell."

"I thought, if I can further enhance the power of the magic weapon through the spell, maybe I can help this gourd cross the threshold of the demon king.*
This is not Jin Renfeng's nonsense. Since the purple gold gourd is an innate object, its power can indeed be enhanced through acquired transformation.

For example, Li Zizai originally bred an Unfixed Flying Knife in the Chaos Gourd, which enhanced the gourd's offensive power.

Although adding talismans to refine magic weapons is different from Li Zizai's approach, it is essentially the same method and has the possibility of success.

Jin Renfeng had even considered that if the Ruyi refining method didn't work, he would use the talisman refining method instead and forcibly upgrade the gourd to the demon king level.

But later, the Ruyi weapon refining method came into effect, and this method was put on hold.

"If you succeed, then everything will be fine. But what if you fail?"

"Could such a great demon king's magic weapon be destroyed out of thin air?"

Dongfang Guyue questioned.

"It's just a spell, equivalent to an external object added by the outside world. It will not affect the purple gold gourd itself."

Jin Renfeng explained.

"Besides, even if the magic weapon is damaged, the purple gold gourd is a natural magic treasure and can repair itself."

Although he had never acted like this before, in order to deceive his master, he had to pretend to be serious.

"You shouldn't do it so casually."

Dongfang Guyue shook his head.

"Even if you have learned some weapon refining techniques, you won't be able to master them in such a short time."

"If we want to re-refine the Great Demon King's magic weapon, we should at least contact a weapon-refining family like the Li family."

"Master, this is a magical weapon that is quasi-demon king, a natural wonder. If it falls into the hands of the Li family who have been refining weapons for generations, what if they get interested in it?" Jin Renfeng said helplessly.

"What's more, this time the carving of the spell is related to the promotion of the magic weapon."

"Once you succeed in getting promoted, it will become the Demon King's magic weapon. It will also be more attractive."

"We have a good relationship with the Li family. Are we going to fight over a magic weapon?"

“That’s a problem!”

Dongfang Guyue frowned.

"So, not only the Li family, but any outsiders cannot tell this!"

Jin Renfeng warned,

"Only in this way can we reduce trouble!"

"You mean, the refining of the magic weapon cannot be known by outsiders, and can only be done by you?"

Dongfang Guyue asked.

"It can only be this way, and it must be this way!"

Jin Renfeng pretended to be helpless.

"This is a serious matter and must be kept confidential."

Dongfang Gu Yue looked hesitant, and after a long while, he let out a long sigh.

"Forget it! Forget it! Anyway, you found this gourd yourself, you can do whatever you want with it!"

After some threats and coaxing, Dongfang Guyue was finally persuaded by Jin Renfeng and agreed to keep the secret and allow him to practice the magic weapon again.

However, he also required that Jin Renfeng must act with caution and do his best to preserve the purple gold gourd.

Correspondingly, he would look for some methods of refining weapons and let Jin Renfeng study them.

Jin Renfeng naturally agreed to this.

He didn't know how to add talismans at all, so how could the purple gold gourd be damaged?
. . . . . .

As the war in the south came to an end, the garrison troops began to return one by one.

At the same time, the news that Dongfang Guyue was promoted to leader and Jin Renfeng was promoted to elder spread across many aristocratic families like a spring breeze.

"What? That kid was promoted to the elder of the Dao League?"

At the Wen family, Wen Bolin was stunned with surprise when he heard the news from the outer disciples.

"How can this be?"

"But that's the news! Even the head of the family said so."

The yellow-robed monk bowed and said.

"Why was he promoted to the elder of the Dao League?"

Wen Bolin grabbed the yellow-robed monk by the collar.

"I am a legitimate descendant of a noble family, but I have not yet been promoted to an elder. How can he, a disciple from another family, be promoted to an elder?"

"I heard that the boy defeated the Nanman King, who was at the peak of the Great Demon King level, on the battlefield in the south and made great contributions. That's why he was promoted to the position of Dao League elder."

The yellow-robed monk hurriedly explained.

"Defeated the Southern Barbarian King? That kid did it?"

Hearing this, Wen Bolin's eyes almost popped out.

“That’s what’s spread out there.”

The yellow-robed monk said.

Wen Bolin looked unhappy. After a while, he threw the yellow-robed monk to the ground and cursed loudly.

"Even the Southern Barbarian King fell into his hands. Damn, when did this guy become so powerful?"

As the eldest son of an aristocratic family, he was nurtured by the entire family and naturally knew the details of the King of the Southern Barbarians.

But it was precisely because of this that he felt it was incredible.

He was a powerful demon king at the peak of his powers, how could he fall into the hands of a young boy?
Wen Bolin was puzzled.

He also admitted that the boy from Shenhuoshan Manor was indeed very powerful, and he was indeed no match for that boy.

But in the previous competition, that boy was only at the level of a demon king. How could he be a match for the southern barbarian king?
"Master, no matter how that boy defeated the Southern Barbarian King, it will be good for you."

The yellow-robed monk stood up from the ground and said flatteringly,

"When the young master lost to that kid before, people might still say that the young master is not strong enough."

"But if we mention this matter again now, I'm afraid the entire Dao League won't dare to look down on the young master."

"After all, you were only defeated by the master who defeated the King of the Southern Barbarians. It is an honor to be defeated!"

Having said that, the yellow-robed monk gave a thumbs up.

"I don't need you to say it!"

Wen Bolin looked angry and kicked the yellow-robed monk.

He knew that what the other party said was right, but he still felt unwilling.

He is the eldest son of the Wen family! Since when did he become complacent after losing to a disciple from another family?

. . . . . .

Li family——

"Mu Chen, Mu Chen, guess what I just heard?

Li Jingang walked over with an excited look on his face and shouted loudly to Li Muchen who was sitting in the garden.

"Isn't it just that the leader of the Dao League has been replaced, and the idiot has been promoted to elder!"

Li Muchen rolled his eyes and said calmly,

"What's all the fuss about."

"You know it all?"

Li Jingang scratched his head, looking embarrassed.

He came to inform the other party as soon as he got the news, but he didn't expect that he was still a step late.

"How refreshing! Is there anything about the Li family that I don't know?"

Li Muchen, dressed in red, was playing with a jade hairpin in his hand, casually inserting it between his hair.

"Brother Jin is really impressive this time. I heard that even the King of the Southern Barbarians was defeated by him."

Li Jingang murmured.

For the older generation, Dongfang Guyue's promotion to leader is obviously a more important matter.

After all, this concerns the reform of the Taoist Alliance and the reorganization of forces.

But for the younger generation, the promotion of Jin Renfeng, a peer, to elder is more worthy of attention.

"He was just lucky enough to get a magic weapon from the Great Demon King. It wasn't his own ability."

Li Muchen's eyes wandered, seeming a little absent-minded.

"In terms of talent, how can he compare to the true geniuses of the Dao League?"

"Mu Chen, what you said does make some sense."

"In terms of talent, the human phoenix is ​​naturally not as good as the geniuses you saw in the video at the Blue Sky Conference."

Li Jingang smiled and said,
"But luck is also part of strength!"

"At this point, the human phoenix is ​​already at the top of the human race. Even if it's just luck, it's admirable luck."

When Li Muchen heard his cousin mention the Blue Sky Conference, his eyes became complicated.

That was the hurdle that she could never get over.

For the sake of momentary vanity, she chose to cheat.

Now, her cousin's praise not only did not bring her any joy, but instead was like a sharp sword, constantly piercing her heart.

Every word of praise seemed to accuse her of being a liar, gaining reputation that did not belong to her.

Thinking of the young man's confident words and comparing the current situation of the two, Li Muchen could no longer bear it.

It seemed as if the words came out of her mouth in anger.

"What's the point of relying on luck! If he had the ability, he wouldn't have relied on magic weapons to defeat those geniuses of the Blue Sky Conference."

"Otherwise, he is just a boastful idiot at all times."

After saying that, she just stood up and left.

Seeing the girl leave, Li Jingang looked confused.

He really didn't know how he had offended this cousin.

It made her so angry.
