Immortal Refiner

Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Source!

Li Qing’s dao body split into countless forms, each wielding a Peerless Killing Sword.

In the next instant, his figures erupted forward like bolts of lightning.

Boom! Rumble!

The Heavenly Domain above Giant Deer City shattered inch by inch as ten thousand sword beams tore through space, reducing it to fragments in an instant.

The Immortal Slaughtering Sword, forged from pure Geng Metal and imbued with Li Qing’s life-long malevolent energy, possessed terrifying sharpness. Even a slight movement of the blade, as the baleful sword energy flowed, would cause the air to wail in agony.

At this moment, Li Qing unleashed his ultimate speed, unleashing ten thousand sword qi strikes in less than a single breath.

Not only did the surrounding void collapse, but even Qin Siya, whose cultivation was nearing the mid-Divine Transformation stage, couldn’t withstand such terrifying, peerless sword radiance.

As the sword light flickered relentlessly, Qin Siya’s life force rapidly drained away. His body deflated like a punctured balloon, utterly extinguished.

When the sword light finally subsided, Qin Siya’s corpse plummeted to the earth, beyond any hope of revival.

In the sky, Li Qing’s figure materialized. He slowly sheathed the Immortal Slaughtering Sword, his face etched with exhaustion.

”It was still a bit of a stretch. If I could have used this technique at the divine transformation stage, it would have been much more effective.”

Simultaneously activating two spirit treasures consumed an immense amount of mana. Even with Li Qing’s peak nascent soul realm cultivation, he could barely sustain it for long. Only his exceptionally abundant mana reserves allowed him to barely complete the battle.

By the end, his mana was nearly completely depleted, pushed to its absolute limit.

The good news was that the mysterious divine transformation stage cultivator was utterly dead. Having endured countless strikes from the Immortal Slaughtering Sword, no being in the entire Human Realm could have survived such an onslaught.

In fact, this marked Li Qing’s first personal kill of a divine transformation stage cultivator, achieved entirely through his own power, without any tricks or borrowed strength!

This was a monumental feat. Once word spread, the entire Human Realm would be shaken to its core.

After a long moment of catching his breath, Li Qing slowly descended.

He glanced at the dumbstruck Li Yuhuan and snapped impatiently, ”What are you still standing there for? Do you expect your master to clean up this battlefield himself?”

Only then did Li Yuhuan belatedly rush to the spot where Qin Siya’s corpse had fallen, scavenging his spoils of war and storage bag.

Li Qing wasn’t worried about any unexpected complications. Qin Siya’s nascent soul and divine soul had been completely annihilated by the Immortal Slaughtering Sword’s blade, leaving no possibility of survival.

Unless Qin Siya possessed a heaven-defying Fifth-Tier Death Substitute Talisman, which could have saved him from certain death. But it was clear he didn’t possess such a miraculous artifact.

Next, Li Qing approached the Immortal Mansion Ruins. He had long since discerned that these ruins were a special spirit treasure, not a true Immortal’s Blessed Land.

”A rare type of spirit treasure,” he murmured to himself. ”Forged from the entire immortal mansion as its foundation, forming a self-contained entity.”

”No wonder so many cultivators failed to recognize its true nature.”

Li Qing muttered to himself before channeling a spiritual energy imprint with one hand, attempting to claim the immortal mansion as his own.

But the moment the imprint touched the mansion, it vanished completely, like a mud ox sinking into the sea.

”Intriguing. Can’t be claimed through ordinary means?” Li Qing’s eyebrow twitched, his interest in this peculiar immortal mansion-type spirit treasure deepening.

As an artifact refiner, he had refined countless magic treasures and encountered every conceivable type.

Li Qing had long grown accustomed to swords, spears, staves, axes, halberds, hooks, forks, bells, cauldrons, towers, furnaces, and pots.

But this was the first time he had ever seen an entire immortal mansion that was a magic treasure. If he had stumbled upon it unexpectedly, he might have mistaken it for Immortal Mansion Ruins and tried desperately to break in.

Soon, Li Yuhuan came hurrying over, carrying the storage bag she had looted from Qin Siya’s body. She handed it to Li Qing, saying obediently, ”Master, all of that man’s belongings are here.”

”Oh, right! Senior Brother and the others are still inside the mansion. Master, please find a way to rescue them quickly!”

Li Qing shook his head. ”It’s not that simple. Before I arrived, he used a secret technique to completely seal the mansion, intending to refine all the cultivators inside to nourish himself.”

”Now that he’s dead, the mansion’s seal hasn’t been lifted. It won’t be easy for those inside to escape.”

”But don’t worry, they should still be safe. The refining process has stopped.”

As he spoke, Li Qing began roughly searching through the storage bag.

”The Black Dragon Saliva has been used. It seems his physical condition was dire indeed, or he wouldn’t have resorted to such extreme measures.”

Li Qing sighed and tossed the small, jet-black, gelatinous lump to his disciple, Li Yuhuan.

”Keep this. It’s Saliva Fragrance secreted within the body of a fourth-tier Black Python after its transformation. Refine a bit of its essence with your mana each day and apply it to yourself to slow aging and preserve your vital essence.”

Initially, Li Yuhuan regarded the dark, earthy lump with slight disdain. But upon hearing Li Qing’s explanation, her face lit up with delight.

The Black Dragon Saliva emitted a faint, peculiar fragrance, utterly unique. Contrary to expectations, it wasn’t sticky to the touch but rather cool and smooth.

”Thank you, Master!”

Li Qing turned his attention back to cataloging the contents of the storage bag. He wasn’t merely eager to tally his spoils of war; he was searching for a specific, extraordinary artifact.

Soon, he unearthed a book bound with bamboo slips.

”Heh, finally found it. This immortal mansion’s spirit treasure indeed contains the Universal Treasure Manual.”

As an artifact refiner, Li Qing was naturally familiar with the Universal Treasure Manual.

This exclusive manual contained the incantations required to activate spirit treasures. To subdue and wield a spirit treasure, one must master this manual; otherwise, even with heaven-piercing cultivation, it would be useless.
