Chapter 337"Senior 'Yan,' you said Xiao Li’s father is possibly the so-called King of the Night?" "That's right. In the ancient Immortal Cultivation Era, although human cultivators were powerful, they weren't the only dominant force. There were at least two other major powers that could rival them—the demon race and the sea race. As for the sea race, they occupied vast oceans and rarely came ashore. The sea was their home. Aside from powerful beings above the Nascent Soul stage, few cultivators could set foot in their domain. As for the demon race, the sea race and demon race both belong to the category of demon beasts and spirit beasts, with one living in the sea and the other primarily on land. The interactions between the two weren’t frequent, and they even had some conflicts, which led to their division into two distinct forces. Otherwise, if the two had united, it would have been far more difficult for human cultivators to survive in their early stages." "Yan" paused for a moment, then continued. "As for the King of the Night I mentioned, it is one of the twelve demon kings under the demon race's emperor on land, and its true form is a Black Night Spirit Lynx. It commands the Spirit Lynx clan, along with many other demon beasts, and its strength is comparable to a human Nascent Soul expert." "If there's a Spirit Lynx clan, then Xiao Li may not necessarily be a descendant of the King of the Night, right?" Lu Qing questioned. "No, Black Night Spirit Lynxes are extremely rare within the Spirit Lynx clan. It’s possible that an era could pass without even one appearing. In my time, before I entered my deep slumber, there were only two Black Night Spirit Lynxes in the entire demon race, and they were a mated pair. So Xiao Li must be their descendant." "Yan" said this with certainty. Lu Qing fell silent. If that was true, then it was highly likely. "But why is Xiao Li here? From what I can tell, it's still in its juvenile form, right?" "Yan" also seemed puzzled. "Xiao Li is indeed still a juvenile. I only met it by chance two years ago." Lu Qing briefly recounted how he had met Xiao Li and mentioned that Xiao Li had no memory of its origins. "It seems that after I entered my slumber, the Immortal Cultivation world has indeed undergone many great changes," Yan sighed. "Otherwise, those two wouldn't have left their daughter all alone. It’s unknown how the various factions managed to resist when the spiritual energy depletion and the great tribulation descended. Did they successfully leave this world, or did they perish in the calamity?" Lu Qing remained silent. Even Yan, a being who had lived for tens of thousands of years, didn’t know what happened, so how could he? "Senior, if Xiao Li is really the daughter of those two, then it must have been born tens of thousands of years ago. Why is it still in its juvenile form?" "That’s not hard to understand. The King of the Night probably used some rare treasure to seal Xiao Li right after it was born. You must understand that the Black Night Spirit Lynx possesses both fire and space attributes, and is naturally endowed with a unique spiritual sense. It can easily discover treasures that are difficult for ordinary people to detect. Given the King of the Night's profound cultivation, finding treasures would be a simple task. I recall several instances when secret realms appeared, and it was always the King of the Night that gathered the most treasures. So, having a treasure that could seal Xiao Li for tens of thousands of years is entirely possible. Take good care of your Black Night Spirit Lynx. It is a true blessing. When the rules of heaven and earth evolve, and many secret realms emerge, Xiao Li could become your greatest aid in exploring those realms." As Yan spoke, there was a certain emotion in its tone. S~eaʀᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Lu Qing’s luck was simply too abundant. Not only did he possess multiple spiritual artifacts, but now he had also subdued a spirit beast as rare as the Black Night Spirit Lynx. It was hard to imagine how many opportunities he would gain once the rules of heaven and earth fully evolved and numerous secret realms were revealed. Thinking of this, Yan couldn't help but feel a surge of expectation, dispelling all of its previous frustration. Following such a fortunate master, perhaps it would truly be able to escape its cage and gain freedom one day. "A blessing, huh..." Lu Qing glanced at Xiao Li, who was playing with Xiao Yan, recalling the time when it had traded a hundred-year-old ginseng for fish. After thinking for a moment, he decided not to tell Xiao Li about this. Since these events occurred tens of thousands of years ago, Xiao Li’s parents might no longer be alive. Telling it now would only add unnecessary worries. Perhaps letting Xiao Li remain carefree as it was would be what the Black Night Spirit Lynx couple would have wanted most. --- The Wei family acted swiftly. Although Wei Shanhai had said it would take three days to gather the materials Lu Qing needed, in reality, by the second day, a convoy from the Wei family had already begun delivering some of the materials. "Young Master Lu, here is the refined iron we temporarily gathered from a few workshops in the county. Per the Old Ancestor’s orders, we’ve brought it to you first. As for the jade materials, they've already been transferred from the prefecture and should arrive in the next day or two." At the Halfway House, Chief Steward Wei respectfully addressed Lu Qing. The Wei family now placed great importance on all of Lu Qing’s requests, with this batch of refined iron being personally escorted by Chief Steward Wei. "Thank you, Chief Steward." Lu Qing politely expressed his gratitude, then inspected the batch of refined iron. "Ah Qing, what kind of array are you planning that requires so much refined iron?" Old Doctor Chen, seeing the large amount of refined iron delivered by Chief Steward Wei and hearing there was more on the way, couldn't help but be surprised. "It's not much," Lu Qing shook his head. "I still need to refine and purify the iron further. In the end, there won't be much left. It’s a pity. If I could get my hands on a batch of iron refined a thousand times, I wouldn’t need to go through the trouble of purifying it." Upon hearing this, Chief Steward Wei thought to himself: A batch of iron refined a thousand times? There isn't a single workshop in the entire county that can produce such a thing. The Wei family’s treasury only holds a small amount of it. For Lu Qing to want to gather a large batch all at once would be nearly impossible. Even scouring all of Cangzhou might not be enough. After all, thousand-fold refined iron is a treasure used to forge valuable weapons, always in high demand. Any martial artist who obtained some would immediately have it forged into their most suitable weapon. Few would hoard it and not use it. Lu Qing also knew that this was wishful thinking. So after Chief Steward Wei and his men left, he immediately opened the furnace, preparing to refine the iron. With a hand seal, the small Li Huo Cauldron hanging from his neck, only the size of a finger, quietly flew out, transforming into a cauldron half a person tall, and landed in the courtyard. Old Doctor Chen’s expression shifted slightly. Although he had seen this many times, he still couldn’t help but marvel at the miraculous techniques of immortal cultivation. "Senior Yan, I’ll be troubling you again." "No trouble at all. Leave it to me." Lu Qing began tossing the pile of refined iron into the Li Huo Cauldron one piece at a time. Yan accepted everything without complaint, swallowing it all. For something with its own internal space, it could easily swallow an entire mountain, let alone a bit of refined iron. After swallowing all the iron, Yan formed a hand seal within the spiritual artifact space. In the next moment, a large amount of fire appeared out of thin air, smelting the pile of iron. Soon, the iron melted, turning into a large pool of molten metal. Yan controlled the flames with ease, continuing to refine the molten iron. Refining mundane iron within the Li Huo Cauldron, a spiritual artifact, was a simple task. It didn't even need to use much power to easily complete the task. Under Yan’s control, the impurities within the molten iron were rapidly burned away, and the mass began to shrink. Finally, after it had reached its limit and no more impurities could be refined, Lu Qing’s figure appeared in the spiritual artifact space. He took over control of the Li Huo Cauldron, and with a thought, the pure molten iron divided into dozens of small portions. Lu Qing then began to infuse restrictions into the molten iron. Old Doctor Chen stood by, guarding Lu Qing as he entered meditation. Before long, the Li Huo Cauldron began spitting out one iron pillar after another. Each pillar had mysterious patterns faintly appearing on its surface, seemingly containing some kind of hidden power. After spitting out dozens of small iron pillars, Lu Qing finally opened his eyes, a trace of fatigue in them. "Ah Qing, are they all refined?" "Yes, but unfortunately, the iron wasn't enough. I could only refine thirty-six pillars for now." Lu Qing sounded a bit dissatisfied. "And how many pillars do you need for the array?" "In my plan, I need one hundred and eight pillars to set up the complete formation." Old Doctor Chen was taken aback. The amount of refined iron the Wei family had delivered wasn’t small, yet it wasn’t even half of what Lu Qing needed. "Still, thirty-six pillars are enough to set up the framework of the formation for now." With a wave of his hand, the thirty-six iron pillars, which had been refined and infused with his spiritual energy, emitted a bright light. They flew off the ground, turning into streams of light that shot down the mountain. Lu Qing’s current soul force was comparable to that of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and with his full focus, nothing within several miles could escape his notice. Covering the small Jiuli Village was no problem at all. Under his control, the thirty-six iron pillars landed precisely at their intended positions, silently sinking into the ground. Having lived in Jiuli Village for so long, Lu Qing was already intimately familiar with the terrain. Thus, the spots he chose for the pillars were the optimal nodes for the array. Once the pillars were in place, the energy within them connected, and Jiuli Village began to change. The earth’s energy was rapidly channeled, and spiritual energy from the surroundings started to gather around the village. Of course, these changes were imperceptible to the ordinary villagers. They only felt that the village had suddenly become much cooler. "Old man, do you feel like the house has gotten cooler?" In Grandpa Zhang's home, his wife, who was fanning herself, remarked in surprise. "It does seem cooler. What’s going on? Is it about to rain?" Grandpa Zhang, who had been lying in a chair, suffering from the heat, quickly got up to go outside and gather the laundry. But when he stepped into the courtyard, he found the sky bright and clear, without a cloud in sight. The sun shone brilliantly above, yet despite standing under the scorching sun, he didn’t feel the oppressive heat from before. Instead, the sunlight felt warm, like autumn or winter. "What in the world?!" Such an eerie situation didn’t fill Grandpa Zhang with joy; instead, it made him feel unsettled. When things deviate from the norm, there’s often something strange going on. Situations like this, which defied common sense, usually heralded something extraordinary. Other keen villagers also noticed the sudden change and ran outside to check. Just as everyone was growing worried, Lu Qing’s voice came from the mountain. "Everyone, don’t worry. The changes in the village are caused by me. They are beneficial, not harmful, and won’t hurt anyone." Though the voice came from the mountain, it wasn’t loud, yet it seemed to be speaking right next to the villagers' ears. Upon hearing this, the villagers understood and finally relaxed. "Oh, it’s just Ah Qing. No need to worry, everyone, carry on with your day." "Ah Qing’s really becoming amazing. I wonder what incredible skill he learned on his latest journey to even affect the weather." "This is great. The weather’s been getting hotter and hotter lately, much worse than previous years. I couldn’t take it anymore. Now that it’s cooler, we can finally sleep comfortably at night." "Yes, this year’s weather has been strange. A few months ago, there was that cold rainstorm that nearly froze us to death. I heard people in the neighboring village even died from the cold. Now it’s gotten so hot that it’s unbearable. If this continues, we’ll probably face a severe drought." "Good thing we have Ah Qing. He’s grown even more powerful. He’s made the whole village cooler! That’s almost like something from those stories about immortals!" "Could it be that Ah Qing and Old Doctor Chen went on their journey to seek out immortals?" ... The villagers chattered away, shifting from discussing the recent weather to wondering if Lu Qing knew immortal techniques, with the stories becoming more and more exaggerated. At the Halfway House, Lu Qing heard the discussions and couldn’t help but chuckle as he withdrew his spiritual sense. However, his expression soon grew more serious. The villagers were right. Ever since the rules of heaven and earth had changed and spiritual energy had begun to revive, the weather had indeed become more complicated. That cold Sha rainstorm a few months ago was just one example. But in the past month, the scorching sun had made the weather increasingly hot, almost unbearable for ordinary people. This was far from normal. "Master, it seems these changes in the heavens and earth aren’t necessarily a blessing for common folk." "More likely a curse than a blessing." Old Doctor Chen's face was filled with concern. He had overheard the villagers' conversations. Jiuli Village was nestled by the Hundred Thousand Mountains, blessed with lush landscapes. Yet, even here, the changes in the weather were so apparent. What about the places with harsher environments? How would they fare under these erratic weather patterns? The thought weighed heavily on Old Doctor Chen’s heart. After a while, he suddenly spoke, "Ah Qing, in the coming days, I’m thinking of visiting some of the nearby villages." Table of content
