Demonic Demoness Training Project

As she spoke, Lu Li looked at the starship where Qing Kui was located.

Qingkui once said that there was a legacy left by Qingling in the desolate ruins. Before facing the other three lineages, she planned to go and get that legacy first.

Lu Li then took out a communication stone and sent a message to the Azure Puppet on another starship, and quickly received a positive reply.

"It's not far, only 500 li to the east. Let's go, I'll settle my men and take you there immediately."

After speaking, Qingkui immediately issued orders to the three armies.

"Land and establish a foothold!"

Chapter 311 A Brand New Return to the Void Seal!

Snow covers Qiongshan Mountain, and the setting sun holds gold in its hands.

Dozens of starships sank, kicking up a thick fog of snow, and finally landed slowly on an open space at the foot of the mountain.

Qingkui summoned an array plate, from which five-colored rays of light spewed out. Under the illumination of this light, dozens of star rafts vanished without a trace.

This artifact, named Floating Clouds Obscuring the Sun, was a mechanical artifact she seized from an elder of the Fan family of the Lingxi Sect during the battle at Black Rain Pool. However, this mechanical artifact was only at the fourth level.

Over the next few days, she will take Lu Li to retrieve Qing Ling's legacy, so the soldiers will be stationed here for now.

Then, she took Lu Li with her and headed east. On the way, Qing Kui suddenly asked:

"How is your cultivation 'recovering' these days?"

"I've reached the peak of the Yan King realm, but I'm still lacking some opportunities to break through to the Yan Emperor realm. However, after I obtain the inheritance, I may need to go into seclusion for a while. It's a bit too hasty for you to bring troops to guard the border of the desolate ruins."

"No, there are several important resource points in the vicinity of the Desolate Ruins, including a vein of Resonance Jade. I plan to take over this resource point and then start recuperating."

Although the population of the Azure Vein is expanding rapidly, the growth of its military strength has hit a bottleneck. For a member of the Yan Clan to play a role on the battlefield, having only a third-level cultivation is not enough.

An unarmed second-tier Yan Clan member is no different from cannon fodder on the battlefield. Only when equipped with puppet armor and able to form a large puppet formation can they pose a certain threat to the Yan Emperor.

Among them, Resonance Jade is the core spiritual material for refining mechanical puppets.

Previously, Qingmai controlled three Resonance Jade veins, two of which had been depleted, and the remaining one was almost empty. To continue expanding its army, it needed to seize new veins.

At this moment, Qingkui suddenly showed joy and said:

"Wait, you just said you were going into seclusion. Are you preparing to break through to the next level?"

"Ah."

Lu Li nodded slightly, offering no further explanation.

In fact, besides breaking through, she also needs to leave the cave.

In the blink of an eye, she had been in the Divination Cave Heaven for more than three years. According to the time difference between the inside and outside of the cave heaven, nearly a year had passed in the outside world.

At first, Lu Li used the excuse of rescuing people downstream to cover his tracks. Now that he has been away for so long, it is time to go back to avoid arousing suspicion from Lingxi Sect.

The output of spiritual materials in the Divination Cave is not small, but the variety is limited. Lu Li also went to the outside world to purchase a batch of spiritual materials to further improve the Yanzhen production line.

The reason she didn't say she was leaving temporarily was because she was afraid the other party would become suspicious, think she was going to run away, and wouldn't let her go.

Qingmai owes its current success largely to Luli, and if Luli were to say she wanted to leave, the other party would definitely disagree.

Since that's the case, it's better not to say anything.

Just then, Lu Li frowned slightly, suddenly hovering in the air, no longer moving forward.

There are people ahead.

Thirty miles away, three starships stood in a row. Judging from their appearance, they were the Lingxi Sect's Lin Yuan Immortal Ships. Lu Li pointed and asked:

"The legacy you mentioned, could it be over there?"

"Yes, they beat us to it, even though it was so well hidden..."

"Fortunately, it seems they have just arrived. With the Lingxi Sect's capabilities, it should only be a matter of time before they can decipher the Yanhuang inheritance."

"How many Blessing Return to Nothingness Seals do you still have?"

"Three, just enough for one ship."

As Lu Li said this, she chuckled to herself.

Just kidding. I actually have ten more. If there's anything fishy about the inheritance later, I'll let you try the remaining two.

"There are only three left? But I remember you got more than these uranium ore from Guixu before."

Over the years, Qingkui has kept records of every time he has provided supplies to Luli, and has roughly estimated that it would take about five to six uranium pills to refine a Five-Turn Return to Nothingness Seal.

Lu Li made up a lie:

"There's a risk of failure when refining this stuff. I tried to improve the 'Yan Tu' technique a few times recently, but I was unlucky and almost got blown up."

"Oh, I see."

Qingkui didn't delve too deeply into this issue, which was one of the advantages of Luli not signing the Dao Oath in the first place. It always left her with a trump card, lest she be sold out by this woman one day.

In fact, after years of deduction by Wan Zhongyi, Lu Li's understanding of the Five Revolutions Returning to the Void Seal is now consummate, making him a master in his own right.

Although there is still a considerable gap between this and the Boundless Blessing Return to the Void Seal, and failure in refining it is possible, it is absolutely impossible to blow oneself up.

Regarding the spiritual material Guixu Uranium, Lu Li not only summarized a complete refining process that guarantees it will not explode, but also deduced several different versions of the Yan Tu based on the original Guixu Seal.

Even the ten Blessing Return to the Void Seals in her hand are not all the same model.

"This is about right... any closer and they'll spot us."

Lu Li landed in a mountain hollow. Qing Kui was slightly surprised. For the past three years, Lu Li had strictly kept the Gui Xu Seal secret. Therefore, Qing Kui's impression of the Gui Xu Seal was still based on what it was three years ago.

"Thirty li, can you hit it?"

"Just you wait and see."

After saying that, Lu Li took out the Guixu Gun, pushed a Guixu Seal into it, and his dark blue eyes seemed to be able to see through everything as he aimed at the distant Star Chariot across six mountain peaks.

Qingkui might not know, but Elder Duan, who was in charge of the production line, was very clear about the extent to which the Guixu Seal in Luli's hands had evolved.

With a maximum range of forty miles, no recoil, and the ability to fire after three breaths of charging, its power is comparable to a sixth-rank automaton... It can be said that the Blessing Return to the Void Seal in Lu Li's hand now, although still a fifth-rank automaton, has almost made up for all of its original shortcomings.

Seeing this, Duan Xuanyuan sighed:

"Alright, alright, we're not even going to act anymore. If you had this thing back then, you wicked disciple, two shots would have made Ying Wange kneel down and call you 'Mom'."

"Otherwise what? Do you think my sister puts thousands of soldiers in the square every day to do military gymnastics? It's an extreme deduction comparable to a Xuanjing artifact spirit. She's kidding you."

Lu Ling hummed and hawed for a while, and as the saying goes, "one is influenced by one's company," her smug expression seemed to have been infected by Duan Xuanyuan.

However, Lu Li dared not be too careless. The reason she was so eager to improve the Guixu Seal was that she was worried that Lingxi Sect, with its profound foundation, would find a way to counter it in advance.

Essentially, this is an arms race, a contest of whose puppets evolve faster and who can forge a puppet that can counter the opponent first.

After three years of hard work, study, and simulation, it is now time to test the results.

“I let you escape last time. Three years have passed. Let me see how much you have improved.”

"This is—the first shot."

After saying that, Lu Li pulled the trigger, and a jet-black seal shot out, just like it had back then.

This artifact is named—【The Seal of Blessing Return to the Void - Prototype】

Chapter 312 Sister, use that!

Thirty miles away, at the Lingxi Sect's encampment, crowds thronged.

It's the same Lingxi Sect, but the previous batch of leaders had completed their terms, and they suffered considerable losses along the way, so both the leading elders and the disciples under them were replaced.

Among the elders leading the team this time, the Zou family was the main force, and the leader was named Zou Cheng.

Half a year ago, a disciple accidentally discovered this site while searching the mountain and initially determined that it was left by the Qingling Yanhuang, so he was overjoyed.

The team leader, Elder Zou Cheng, arrived at the scene immediately and exclaimed with delight:

"The legacy of Qingling Yanhuang, hahaha, obtained without any effort."

At this moment, disciple Zou Guangzhao asked curiously:

"Master, could this Qingling Yanhuang be the one who severely injured our sect's elder disciples and stole a Lin Yuan Immortal Ship three years ago?"

"Who else could it be but that guy? Although we don't know why she was able to be reborn or how she managed to obtain the Guixu Seal, she revealed her cultivation level in that battle. At most, she's only at the Yanwang Realm. Since we're here, let's seize her inheritance and see how she recovers her strength."

So everyone started digging on the spot, but were eventually stopped by the magic circle in front of them.

With the help of the Heavenly Disparity, the group sent the magic array back to the sect for the Supreme Elder to break. After a month of hard work, the magic array was 90% complete.

Today, Zoucheng is radiant, for today is the day the great formation will be shattered.

Even the Supreme Elders of the Void Refinement Realm participated in breaking this restriction, and it still took a whole month, indirectly proving that the inheritance within was extraordinary.

"Master, aren't we afraid she'll come after us if we keep digging into her legacy like this?"

"What's there to be afraid of? The Divination Cave is so vast, and Qingling Yanhuang hasn't come for so long. How could we possibly run into each other?"

"Even if she really comes, we are not afraid. The barbarians in this world have limited knowledge of cultivation and may not be able to do anything to her Guixu Seal, but our sect has long had a plan to deal with it. If she dares to come, we will make sure she never returns!"

Upon hearing this, Zou Guangzhao felt reassured, but another disciple couldn't bear to ask:

"What exactly does the Guixu Seal look like?"

"According to the images brought back at the time, the Guixu Seal looks like a black seal. During its flight, it is accompanied by boundless calamity energy. When the calamity energy is dense, it will manifest as purple mist. After the explosion, it will cause terrifying power."

"Oh...is that similar to the one in the sky?"

Zou Guangzhao pointed, and Zou Cheng looked in that direction and nodded slightly.

"Not bad, it really does look similar to that thing... Hmm, hmm?"

Zou Cheng's eyes widened, his pupils instantly shrinking to the size of pinpoints. He cried out in alarm and quickly said:

"Damn it, where did this Ruins Seal come from... Everyone on high alert! Enemy attack!"

He truly hated his own mouth. He had just been talking about the Guixu Seal, and then he turned around and encountered one. All the disciples' hearts jumped into their throats instantly.

The elders, having seen much of the world, quickly calmed down and activated the spiritual energy shield on the Immortal Boat. Zou Cheng stepped forward, waved his sleeve, and produced a white seal.

Fifth-Rank Universe Dao Weapon - [Counter-Strike Seal]!

"Good timing!"

This item serves no other purpose than to counter the seal. It is made from expensive materials and is a magical artifact specially crafted by the Lingxi Sect to deal with the Guixu Seal.

This kind of weapon has almost no other use except against the Guixu Seal, but it is precisely because of this that it can be extremely effective in targeting specific targets.

"This counter-resistance seal was forged by a Supreme Elder of our sect at the Void Refinement Realm. It was made solely to deal with you, and you should feel honored for it!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the two seals, one black and one white, were about to collide. However, at that moment, the white seal exploded first, revealing the Dao patterns of the universe. The surrounding space shattered and turned into a pale space, swallowing the Guixu Seal into it.

Immediately afterwards, a loud bang erupted in the pale space, from which a few wisps of purple energy spilled out. The aftershocks were so powerful that they caused the earth to tremble and the mountains and rivers to shake.

If it hadn't been swallowed by that space, the power of the Guixu Seal would have been far greater than it is now. However, separated by a space, the power of the Guixu Seal has been greatly reduced.

Lingxi Sect had already deployed a protective barrier, easily blocking the aftershocks. Everyone was unharmed in the end. The disciples were stunned at first, then burst into cheers.

"The Return to Nothingness Seal is nothing special, wondrous! Wondrous! Supreme Lord, you are mighty! Hahaha!"

"Let's see how she causes trouble now! I've heard that over the years, she's been dominating the world and expanding her Azure Vein Spirit Map by relying on her Guixu Seal. Now she's finally met her match."

"The Return to Nothingness Seal? It's only good for bullying those barbarian Yan tribes. The highest among them is only at the fifth level. How can they compare to the Supreme Void Refining Realm cultivators of my sect?"

……

Thirty miles away, on the other side of the six mountain peaks.

Qingkui strained his eyes to witness the entire process of the Guixu Seal from its ascent to its explosion. His expression changed rapidly, from initial doubt to excitement, to shock, and finally to disappointment.

Once the explosion had completely subsided, she turned to look at Lu Li and shook her head helplessly.

"If all else fails, let's think of another way."

After pondering for a moment, Qingkui continued:

“You don’t have to force yourself. I’ve thought of a plan to use one enemy against another. The nearest stronghold of the White Vein isn’t far from here.”

Lu Li simply shook his head, as if he hadn't heard her, and silently analyzed the situation in his mind.

"They really came prepared. This pair of seals is quite interesting. They used the methods of the universe to open up a void space to intercept the Returning Void Seal and limit its explosive power to a very small area. Hmm..."

Lu Li couldn't help but recall the Boundless Hall of the White Moon Palace from back then, where there was a weapon-refining room. To prevent the Guixu Seal from exploding, a separate space was specially created.
