The Demon God Emperor
Ch. 293 - Refining Spirit Artifacts
The biggest advantage of this artifact was not the speed that it could make the user fly. But, the owner of this artifact did not need to expend any qi while flying!
If Qing Shan was recognized as the master by that artifact, his flying speed would be unrivalled without depleting his qin. Even if he needed to travel long distances, he no longer needed a spirit ship to help him on his journey!
As for the last item in the s.p.a.ce bag that made Qing Shan stunned for a while. He had not expected to find this item in the country and even exceeded his expectations that King Tang would give this item to him as a gift…
The God Stone that stored heavenly cold energy.
If others knew that he had this item, there would be many people interested and trying to snatch it from him.
"Is the King really good to me?"
Qing Shan felt that this gift was by no means something good. It was as if the king would draw more trouble to Qing Shan. It would trigger the greed of some people to snatch it from him.
"If the King wants to make trouble for me, he won't keep it a secret once this thing falls into my hands. If I am not mistaken, there will be a Spirit Realm cultivator coming to request this item! Daoku's heart does not give up on others. If I'm forced to give up this stuff, it shows that I gave myself up. Is this King Tang's main goal?"
Qing Shan felt unsure of his assumption.
He then left the inn and spread his spirit senses throughout the area, encompassing the entire Hubei City.
In the next moment, he could eavesdrop on the conversation and gossip from the restaurant outside.
"Have you heard? Ancestor Zhang En has received our King's approval and will be one of the Tang Commanders. He would take over the position of Tang Ru who was also known as the Commander who was killed in carrying out his mission.
“Who doesn't know about this?! Did you also know that this Zhang En Ancestor not only obtained Tang Ru's post, but also obtained her space bag!”
"What?! Is the news true?! What is the contents of that space bag?!”
“God stones that have the energy of the sugawi ice element! Ice Essence!”
"It was always sought after by the snow Elder, one of the elders of this palace of our world, right? Could it be that the Honorable Snow Elder did not want the item anymore?”
Qing Shan lau withdrew his spirit senses and his eyes turned cold and muttered. "If King Tang has good intentions on me, it is impossible for him to spread that news everywhere that would cause trouble for me.! Hemph!"
From the conversation earlier, Qing Shan learned that the ice essence stone earlier belonged to the late Tang Ru . Moreover, the Elder who was nicknamed the Ice Elder of the Tropical World palace wanted the item..
“True, King Tang wants to take revenge on me for destroying his Ruler Dao. He now wants to destroy Daoku. This Snow Elder was otherwise mistaken to be in the realm of the Spirit Realm. Does this King of Tang really think that I, Qing Shan, do not dare to accept this ?! ”
Qing Shan then secluded himself for seven days in the Hubei Sect before Ji Xie received the news..
This news soon spread to every city in Tang State through the sender of voice transmission messages in every city.
The good news was that the Snow Elder of the Tropical Palace had personally come to the Tang Country to take command of the state forces. And the bad news was that the Snow Elder had gone to the middle of the wave of demonic forces in the Death Pool, and came out from there with an injury a few days ago!
The culprit was the Demon General of the Spirit Realm as well.
Many cultivators had guessed that the appearance of the waves.The demon army might have been associated with the resurrection of the Demon Generals and many of them panicked when they learned that there was indeed a Demon General realm of the Spirit Breaking Realm.
Hope and despair spread throughout the Tang State. With Elder Saju having been injured, the attack of the demon army launched a counterattack that caused the three great cities to have fallen, inflicting the casualties of nearly one million cultivators.
“King Tang and the Snow Elder ordered all commanders to immediately depart for the Death Pool to help the frontline defense!”
Ji Xie was shocked after he received the message. With the impending crisis looming over their Tang Country, he hoped he could rush towards the southern Sea of Tang to protect his country. But he did not leave immediately and patiently waited for Qing Shan to come out of his seclusion.
“Tell Sect Master, Ancestor Zhang told us before he went into seclusion that if you came for him, we have to tell.u that he is refining a spirit artifact that will be useful for conquering demons. I hope the Sect Master will wait for him ..." A disciple who worked at the inn said respectfully.
“Purifying spirit artifacts? Could it be that the item.” Ji Xie's eyes were blind without any reaction but his facial muscles moved slightly.
That Spirit Artifact was none other than a wind lightning wing item... Even the Tang king had once tried three times to control those spirit artifacts and it all ended in failure.
King Tang once said that these Spirit artifacts could not be refined into one's body unless they had reached the Spirit Realm… This was not a feat that an average Soul Realm cultivator could accomplish.
King Tang bestowed this item to Qing Shan as if it was a precious gift. But he had never expected at first that Qing Shan could make that spirit artifact recognize him as his master.
Ji Xie who was standing in the doorway and felt a hint of power controlling the energy of Wind and Lightning through the light of the heavy formation and his control became even better from within the room.
“This guy actually refined those wind lightning wings and almost succeeded in the process of tying them up?! How is this possible?!" Said Ji Xie glued to his place.
....
In these few days, Qing Shan placed the spirit artifact in his palm, closed his eyes and meditated for three days.
He tried to use the power of his ice, fire, and lightning elements to imprint Qinua on that spirit artifact for three days, but it all ended in failure... When he tried to give a mark, the mark would be easily erased by that spirit artifact.
Qing Shan considered there must be a spirit present within that spirit artifact that was disdainfully controlled by Qing Shan's weak cultivation.
These three days of effort all ended in failure but his expression contained no anger or happiness. Qing Shan opened his two eyes that showed no signs of sadness in them.
“This Spirit Artifact is definitely difficult to refine. I might have a 10% chance of successfully repairing it by force if I use all of my cultivation strength with a 90% chance of failing and causing injury to myself ... I guess doing it in the usual way is impossible. Then... If I can't make it mine directly, I will seize it by force!”
