Demonic Demoness Training Project

After a soft sound, Lu Ling's spiritual sense reached the mid-stage of the Yellow Realm!

The two male cultivators were shocked and hurriedly retreated, wanting to avoid the attack for the time being.

"not good!"

Lu Ling made a grasping motion with one hand, and a giant hammer materialized in her hand. She raised the hammer above her head, and the hammer grew larger and larger. She aimed at the direction in which the two cultivators were fleeing and smashed it down with a bang.

boom!

One of the cultivators was smashed to ashes. Lu Ling chased after him like a madman. In the end, the cultivator could not withstand Lu Ling's terrifying offensive and was crushed by the giant hammer along with the Nine-Fold Profound Light Tower.

"Hey, we won!"

Duan Xuanyuan clapped his hands and cheered, a bright smile blooming on his young face. As the saying goes, it's better to put pressure on your companions than to improve yourself.

Although she won without lifting a finger, it didn't stop her from getting a share of the reward.

At this moment, she looked around and found that Lu Ling had already disappeared. The moment the battle ended, Lu Ling left the Soul Fighting Cave.

Duan Xuanyuan couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.

"Hehehe, my silly disciple is probably in trouble."

……

Water Moon City, in the Red Dust Courtyard.

Having completed the dream and learned about the history of Yanxian and Yanzu, Luli suddenly realized the truth.

"I see, then it's not surprising."

"What's not strange anymore?"

"I've always been very curious. The art of puppetry has been improved by countless generations and should have been constantly progressing, but cultivators still frequently venture into various ancient grottoes, blessed lands, and ruins."

"Logically, the closer to modern times, the more advanced and powerful the puppets should be. But in reality, the more ancient they are, the more powerful they are."

Lu Li has a deep understanding of the development of puppet technology. Whether it is the upgrading and iteration of spirit cores and models, or the arms race between various puppets, it all reflects the rapid development of puppet technology.

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingque was slightly taken aback at first, then smiled knowingly.

"That's not entirely true. The reason why the Yan Dao (a type of martial arts) was able to flourish in this world is largely due to the inheritance of Yan Xian (another type of martial arts). The ancient era was the most prosperous time for Yan Dao."

"The departure of Yanxian symbolizes the end of the Primordial Era and the beginning of the Ancient Era. Yanzu inherited Yanxian's will and continued to develop Yandao, which continued to develop for thousands of years."

"However, in the late ancient era, the laws of heaven and earth changed drastically, spiritual energy was rapidly depleted, and with the passing of the Yan Ancestor, the development of Yan Dao almost came to a standstill, and it began to decline after reaching its peak."

“In the medieval period, the art of erhu (a type of ancient Chinese weaving) began to develop again and has continued to this day. However, many erhu tools and diagrams still need to be excavated and found in ancient books and relics, and carried forward by later generations.”

"Therefore, medieval relics may be insignificant, but if you come across ancient relics, don't hesitate, make the most of them."

Upon hearing this, Lu Li reached under her clothes, scratched her navel, and said helplessly:

"Opportunity knocks but once it's in hand, one must also enjoy it. The ancient ruins are fraught with danger, so how can I just wander in and out?"

"Hehehe, anything is possible with human effort. There's still plenty of time. How about we try other dreams, like a flower kiss?"

Before Lu Li could answer, Lu Ling's tearful voice suddenly rang in her mind.

"sister!"

Chapter 355 Ancient Sages' Great Battle

"What's wrong! Go play first, I'm talking to your sister Mu Qingque."

"No, let's go home! Don't play with this bad woman anymore, she... she just wants to sleep with you."

Others may not know what "Flower Kiss" means, but how could Lu Ling not know? In the past, Lu Ling always obeyed Lu Li's every word, but today she acted strangely and showed a stubbornness she had never shown before.

"Let's go home!"

Lu Ling's voice rose eight octaves, and only then did Lu Li notice that the other party's current spiritual realm had actually reached the mid-stage of the Yellow Realm.

"What's going on? Wait, you broke through?"

"go home!"

"Okay, okay, let's go home."

After the two sisters finished talking, Lu Li looked apologetically at Mu Qingque.

"It's getting late, so I'll head back now. Don't you have to participate in the Earth Group competition tomorrow?"

"Are you really not going to play a little longer?"

"Next time, definitely next time."

"Okay... shall I walk you home?"

The thought of Lu Li hugging and embracing this shameless woman on the way later made Lu Ling feel extremely jealous, her heart aching terribly.

Lu Ling had been somewhat resistant to regaining her physical body in the past, but now she realized how good it was to have a physical body. With a physical body, she could hug and cuddle with Lu Li.

Unlike now, when he can only stay in his sea of ​​consciousness, watching helplessly as Lu Li is taken away by another woman.

"Don't go with her, let's go back by ourselves."

"Alright, alright."

Lu Li didn't think much of it, so she bid farewell to Mu Qingque and flew back to Hecheng Summer Resort alone.

……

When Lu Li returned to her residence, it was already late at night. Perhaps because she had slept in the Red Dust Courtyard, Lu Li was in good spirits. So she took out the Ice Spirit Core and started working on it all night.

The sixth-turn Ice Spirit Core has a special model number with the suffix "Frost and Snow Through the Ages". The interface style for connecting to the outside world is quite different from those that Lu Li has seen before. If you want the Permafrost Machine to be compatible with the sixth-turn Ice Spirit Core, you need to make some structural modifications.

"I don't know where Mu Qingque got this spirit core from. Whether it's the refining method, the style of the interface, or the material, it's very different from the spirit cores on the market today."

Thinking of this, Lu Li suddenly realized why Mu Qingque had offered to help him with the installation; perhaps she had considered this point.

"Fine, since they've already refused, I'll just go back and look into it again. It'll just take a little more effort, but it's not a big deal."

Lu Li got up and opened the window. Outside, the sky was just beginning to lighten with the first hint of dawn.

"It's already morning."

……

At noon, before the Earth Group started, Mu Qingque came to Lu Li's room.

"I will be away for the next two weeks, so you should stay in the Summer Palace and not move around."

The Summer Palace is of extremely high standard, far surpassing ordinary inns. Each guest has a private house, and there is a garden around the house.

Mu Qingque took out a golden calligraphy brush, flew above the house, and waved it. As the brush moved, a golden circle appeared around the outer edge of the courtyard wall.

Although she didn't know what the brush was, she figured it must be some kind of array-based artifact. For some reason, Lu Li had a strong sense of déjà vu when Mu Qingque drew circles.

"After that, don't leave this area. In two days, Ren Yuanzi should also be here."

Lu Li slapped her forehead and suddenly remembered some memories from a long time ago. She was actually Tang Sanzang, and Mu Qingque was Sun Wukong who went to beg for alms. In order to prevent her from being captured by monsters, he drew a circle and told her not to move.

When Mu Qingque finished painting, the golden light flashed and disappeared in an instant. Lu Li felt a surge of emotion. This girl was really thoughtful.

Such kindness overwhelmed Lu Li. The last time he felt this way was a few years ago when Mo Shuhan lent him four hundred spirit stones.

"Is this to guard against the True Lord of Retreating Fire?"

"Including, but not limited to, after all, it is a mid-level weapon refining conference, and True Monarch Tuihuo will most likely not dare to act recklessly."

"This thing can stop True Lord Retreating Fire?"

"I can't stop you, but I can keep you safe. Anyway, don't worry, I'll come back to see you in half a month. Yes, I said I would protect you, and of course I will."

After giving his instructions, Mu Qingque left the Summer Palace and headed to the arena of the Midstream Weapon Forging Tournament.

Lu Li returned to the house, connecting with the Heavenly Disparity to watch the progress of the Midstream Weapon Refining Conference while continuing to tinker with the Ice Spirit Core.

Lu Ling also entered the Heaven of Disparity, but she wasn't very interested in the Midstream Weapon Forging Conference and didn't know where she went to play again.

Lu Ling was still a child after all, and it would be quite boring for her to stay in her sea of ​​consciousness all day. It would be good for her to go out and explore more, so Lu Li didn't ask any more questions.

At this moment, while browsing the vast sky, Lu Li accidentally found the official guessing game page of the tournament. What Lu Li cared about was not anything else, but the code names on the list.

“Little Boundless Venerable, Little Blessed Heavenly Lord, Little Liu Si, Little Lingtu Ancestor, Little Teleportation Ancestor… what are all these people?”

Lu Li rubbed her eyes, almost thinking she was seeing things. The betting list contained dozens of names, all of whom were ancient sages. Lu Li was familiar with most of these great figures.

The Boundless Venerable and the Heavenly Lord of Blessing Life who refined the Boundless Return to the Void Seal, the Spirit Map Ancestor and the Shifting Ancestor who laid the foundation for the Heavenly and Soul Paths of the Disparity, and Liu Si who didn't even get his heels soaked...

"How did this bunch of random ancient names end up on the betting interface?"

Lu Li turned her gaze back to the conference hall and immediately saw a beautiful woman confronting a bald boy, their eyes practically sparking with anger.

"These should be the Spirit Map Ancestor and the Teleportation Ancestor mentioned on the list. Could it be that all of these people on the field are steamed souls?"

Old Duan was also slightly surprised when he saw this.

"No mistake, it's Steamed Soul."

"So many?! They're all the steamed souls of ancient sages. Is this Earthly Group hell? Where did all these steamed souls come from?"

"Many of these ancient sages came from upstream sects. The upstream sects have preserved the complete life stories, words and deeds, and diagrams of these ancient sages. Using this information, it should not be difficult to refine the Steamed Soul."

"So the Earth Group Conference is just about using our ancestors to fight crickets, huh? Well, well, I've learned something new."

Lu Li found it difficult to deal with even a minor Retreating True Monarch, let alone the demons and monsters of the Earth Group.

Fortunately, not all participants were steamed souls. For example, the representatives of those mid-level sects looked much more normal. Judging from their clothes, they at least looked like modern cultivators.

“My disciple, have you ever heard a saying?”

"what?"

"We cultivators are meant to fight on the battlefield and become famous far and wide. After you fall, your descendants will refine you into a fairy and remember you forever."

Chapter 356 This woman possesses the aura of a hybrid.

"Fairy?"

Lu Li suddenly noticed that a beautiful young woman was standing in the direction of the Tianyou Sect, with the words "Liu Si" written on her forehead... Lu Li was quite certain that the historical Liu Si was a male cultivator.

"Isn't that unnecessary? A perfectly normal male cultivator turning into a fairy or something, isn't that a bit... a bit disrespectful to the immortal master?"

For some reason, Lu Li felt a chill down below. Some time ago, she had also accidentally lost her brother, and a feeling of shared misfortune welled up inside her.

"I don't know. Who should I ask? You should ask those upstream immortal clans that refine Soul Steam and ask them what they think."

"Why don't the mid-tier sects allow Soul Steaming to participate?"

"There are also differences between the Soul Steaming Techniques. The Soul Steaming Techniques mastered by mid-level sects are often not mature enough. The only exception is the Tongxian Sect."

Only a sufficiently advanced soul-steaming technique can reproduce the strength of ancient sages to the greatest extent. Lu Li had seen Qing Ling's soul-steaming technique in the Divination Saint Cave and always felt that she was not very smart.

From birth, most of the souls of the ancients live in dreams, which are woven from the lives of ancient sages to recreate the paths they have walked.

For the upstream weapon-refining conference, the midstream weapon-refining conference is a time to test the results.

The Midstream Weapon Forging Conference tests not only the participants' own weapon forging skills, but also the weapon forging level of the sects behind them.

The strength of the Soul Steam can indirectly reflect a sect's skill in weapon crafting.

In contrast, the representatives of the Earth Group from the mid-tier sects all looked like they had lost their parents, as if they had been pushed up by their sects to be beaten.

No matter how clever they are, can they compare to the wisdom of our ancestors?

But not participating is not an option; you have to participate, even if it's just a formality. Even knowing you'll be tortured and humiliated, you still have to come.

The upstream sects will not interfere with the Human Group Tournament, because the Human Group Tournament is a reward that the upstream sects give to the midstream sects, and the price is that they send people from the Earth Group to act as extras.

Perhaps thousands of years ago, the original Midstream Weapon Forging Conference was not like this, but as the Soul Path flourished and the Soul Steaming Technique matured, the Midstream Weapon Forging Conference eventually evolved into this absurd scene.

However, there was one exception among these disheartened mid-level monks.

This person was none other than Mu Qingque.

The girl was looking around, seemingly oblivious to the seriousness of the situation, her expression practically screaming "I don't understand, but I'm impressed!"

Lu Li chuckled to herself.

"Oh my god, does she even know who she's going to hit next?"

"Maybe she realized she couldn't win, so she came out?"
