The Great Snow Mountain!
The cold wind was bitterly cold, and suddenly snow fell.
The snowflakes mixed with the remnants of the sword qi and turned into blood-coloured ice flowers, gargling down, dreamy and gorgeous, like a scenic funeral.
Plum Blossom Dweller left, with a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth, seemingly relieved.
From then on, there was only one Outer Dao Immortal King left in the four domains.
“Senior!”Qin Li was as sad as snow.
“Seeking Plum! Seeking Plum!”Zo Ran Immortal King cried his heart out, hot tears dripping onto the cold corpse, there was no miracle, dead is dead, this was the rule of heaven and earth, and it couldn’t be changed above the Immortal King.
“Father, how could you kill Jushi!”Yun Shiyu was sad and angry, the whole thing was very painful as she was caught in the middle.
Lian Chengyu said, “Even if I don’t make a move, he won’t live long.”
The Yin Feng Immortal King was ecstatic, “Hahaha, this scumbag is finally dead, this is what happens when you go against me!”
The Bi Xiao Immortal King picked up, “That Outer Dao Immortal King has the inheritance of the Plum Blossom Dweller, and that Warm Jade Sword is also a good thing.”
At once, the remaining nine Immortal Kings gazed unkindly, Qin Li was carrying two major Outer Dao on his back alone, ask who in the world wouldn’t covet it.
“I’m warning you all, don’t act rashly!”
Yun Shiyu secretly screamed that it was not good and looked towards her father for help, but Lian Chengyu did not have any intention of rescuing her.
The Cloudy Wind Immortal King said wistfully, “The Plum Blossom Dweller’s storage bag belongs to you all, but his corpse belongs to me, I’m going to thwart him!”
When the Immortal Kings heard this, the greed in their eyes increased.
“Don’t come over!”
Immortal King Zo Ran hugged Jushi’s corpse, her eyes were hollow and silent tears fell.
“b*tch, there’s no place for you to speak here, I’ll take care of you later!”The Yin Feng Immortal King was villainous and pressed on, with a face of sick madness.
“I want you to pay for your life!”
The Zoicite Immortal King hissed, aerating the mountains and rivers.
A terrifying aura surged out, accompanied by a will of extreme sadness, like winter like ice, like an abyss like the sea, stirring the Yuan Qi of the heavens and earth, forming a gigantic tornado of astral winds that rose three thousand miles into the sky, sweeping across the Qiankun for fifty miles, directly destroying the Great Snowy Mountain and forcing back all the surrounding Immortal Kings.
For a time, the mountains crumbled and the four directions were shocked.
“Sorrowful Sword Intent, Senior Aunt Rou Ran’s Great Compassionate Emotionless Sword has reached the final realm!”Yun Shiyu was shocked in her heart, understanding that this kind of superlative power had been exchanged for the death of the Jushi.
Lian Chengyu was surprised, “Immortal King Zo Ran broke the six or seven barriers, it won’t take more than a few thousand years for her to reach the ninth rank of Immortal King.”
Words were heard!
Everyone around was appalled.
It was important to know that the Immortal King Realm had three major barriers.
The three or four barriers, the six or seven barriers, and the celestial barrier, with each barrier broken, one would enter a whole new level, and if all three barriers were broken, one would be above even an Immortal King. Although Immortal King Zuo Ran had only broken the second barrier, he was destined to be one of the topmost experts in the world.
“I want you to accompany Mei Xun with me!”
The Zoicite Immortal King’s eyes burned with flames of hatred as he sheathed his sword weapon in his hand, stirring up his sword aura and revealing his killing intent.
Lian Chengyu blocked, “I know that you have grudges in your heart, but the Yin Feng Immortal King is ultimately the son of the Cloud Que Palace Master, and your skills were also imparted by the Palace Master. I hope you won’t be ungrateful. And when I return, I will naturally deal with the matter impartially and punish Immortal King Yin Feng.”
Zoicite Immortal King’s silver teeth clenched, hatred, humiliation, pain, and grief surged to his heart, and eventually turned into two lines of blood tears that dripped to the ground, “Fine, I’ll let him go, but more actions will lead to his own death, and he’ll be retributed in the end.”
Lian Chengyu let out a sigh of relief and led the Yin Feng Immortal King to step into the air and leave.
The rest of the Immortal Kings saw the situation and withdrew.
Up to this point!
The matter came to a close.
It was a heartbreaking ending.
Qin Li said, “Elder had explained during his lifetime that he would be burned to ashes with the Plum Wood and buried in the Great Snow Mountain.”
Immortal King Zuo Ran nodded and tearfully went to cut down the plum trees in the distance, Yun Shiyu also went to help, inexplicably guilty in her heart.
Soon!
The plum wood platform was built.
The dweller lay peacefully on it.
Soft Immortal King held back his grief and lit the plum wood.
The flames blazed and burned more than once, burying a hero and turning all the enmity into ashes that drifted away with the wind.
“Senior Aunt, our family is sorry for you.”Yun Shiyu was very overjoyed.
Immortal King Zuo Ran said, “It has nothing to do with you, this is a grudge from the previous generation!”
Qin Li asked, “Senior Zo Ran, what are your future plans?”
The Soft Ran Immortal King said, “Firstly, I will dismiss the Li Clan Village, then return to the Eastern Immortal Palace, repudiate the Yin Wind Villain, and finally end up alone.”
Qin Li frowned slightly, “Will you suffer suppression if you go back now?”
Immortal King Zoran shook his head, “Now that the Eastern Immortal Palace’s talents are withering away, and I’m the only Post-Third Grade Immortal King in the huge Sword Peak, Palace Master Yunque should reuse me. Besides, she is my master, this matter is also their fault.”
The three of them silently watched Plum Blossom Dweller turn into ashes.
Suddenly!
The Soft Immortal King spoke, “Legend has it that there is a Jedi in the Western Regions, the Cave of the Past Life, in which there is a divine medicine that reverses heaven’s destiny and brings the dead back to life.”
Qin Li was violently frightened, “Senior Zo Ran, don’t be impulsive, that’s just a vain legend, and the Cave of the Past Life is full of dangers, if you enter it, you’re bound to die, Senior Plum Blossom he’ll never allow you to be foolish!”
“I’m just saying!”The Soft Immortal King class set up a smile.
Eventually!
The Zoicite Immortal King took away the ashes and went to the Li Clan Village to take care of the aftermath.
Qin Li and Yun Shiyu lamented ten thousand times, but there was nothing they could do as they returned to the Floating Cloud Mountain Range.
Three days later.
Praying Rain Peak, Crouching Immortal Courtyard.
Qin Li pulled himself together slightly, calming the grief in his heart.
He planted a few plum blossoms in the courtyard in honour of a deceased friend.
“Cultivation shouldn’t stop!”Qin Li took out his Sixth Grade Warm Jade Sword, glowing with light, in which was a passage of scripture, the culmination of the Plum Blossom Dweller’s seven hundred years of endeavour, capable of breaking through three or four barriers.
“It turns out that the higher the realm, the more affinity one has with the heavens and the earth, and if one penetrates the three barriers with supreme will, one will naturally reach the unity of the heavens and the humans.”Qin Li came to a sudden realisation and began to systematically study the method of breakthrough.
After another three days, Qin Li digested the experience of the Jushi and prepared to make some improvements to fit his Golden Sword Body, thus advancing to the fourth rank of Immortal King.
Suddenly!
A knock came at the door.
Qin Li collected his things and went forward to knock on the door.
Outside the door, Su Qingxue stood all alone and Zhao Lingzhi stood by the side.
Qin Li’s face was calm as he asked, “Little Snow, is something wrong?”
“Mr Jin, I saw that you’ve been in seclusion, so I made some pastries to give you a taste.”Su Qingxue smiled gaily and handed out a bamboo basket.
Qin Li’s eyes narrowed, noticing that on Su Qingxue’s tender white jade hands, there were quite a few new scars, and the tiger’s mouth had grown tough skin, “Your hands, how did you get injured?”
Su Qingxue covered up, “It’s fine, when practising with the sword, one always gets injured, it’s no big deal.”
Qin Li suddenly remembers that Su Qingxue went to Sword Peak, handing out a bottle of elixir, conveying a veiled meaning, “Little Snow, I’ll take the pastry, this bottle of third-grade healing elixir, take it as a gift of thanks.”
Su Qingxue accepted the elixir, her eyes darkening.
She was ice-smart and naturally understood Qin Li’s meaning. Returning the gift represented that the two of them interacted with each other’s feelings, and the thank you gift indicated that the two were not indebted for answering the favour.
“Alright, I’m going to close the door.”Qin Li was ruthless and gave the expulsion order, after all, there were some things that dragged on and on, which were not good for both parties.
“Hmm!”
Su Qingxue pursed her lips and turned to leave.
There was a hint of anticipation in her heart, and she couldn’t help but look back, only to find that the door had long been tightly closed.
Zhao Lingzhi sighed, “Miss, there are some things that can’t be forced.”
“Go!”Su Qingxue left forlornly.
In the Crouching Immortal Courtyard.
Qin Li let out a long sigh.
Placing the pastries aside, he began to study the Record of Military Calamities.
If he wanted to advance to the fourth rank of Immortal King in one fell swoop, he still had to start with the art of weaponry refining, and if he advanced to the fourth rank of weaponry refiner, he had a 90% certainty that he would break through the three or four barriers.
Qin Li took out the Xuan Heavy Cauldron, the Flying Flower Furnace, and incidentally carried out a dozen dragon corpses, which were all obtained from the Fire Hidden Mystic Realm, and hadn’t been able to deal with them, and now that he was easily free, if he didn’t decompose them, the corpses would lose their Essence, and the flesh and blood would all stink.
Time flies like a shuttle, the crow flies and the rabbit walks.
In the blink of an eye, a month passed.
Qin Li used dragon blood as the main ingredient to refine a large number of third and fourth grade blood pills. He also cast a dozen third grade sword weapons from dragon scales and got a set of dragon scale soft armour, but unfortunately, he was slow to be promoted to fourth grade refiner.
Boom!
A violent muffled sound.
Qin Li’s refining failed and blew up the furnace.
Fortunately, the Xuan Heavy Cauldron was thick and did not cause any casualties.
“This is the third refining failure, wasting a pair of my dragon horns!”Qin was immediately heartbroken and distressed.
Suddenly!
“Gold-”
Yun Shiyu kicked the door in with a big grin.
“Knock on the door! Knock on the door! Knock on the door!”Qin Li was quite speechless as he repeated his instructions.
Yun Shiyu had a disinterested look on her face as she said, “You’ve been blowing up the furnace for the past two days, making it impossible for me to cultivate in peace, so I could only kick in the door.”
Qin Li sighed, “I failed in my promotion to Fourth Grade Alchemist.”
Yun Shiyu laughs, “Cultivation has three or four barriers, and so does the art of refining weapons, how can it be so easy to break through to the fourth rank, I froze and blew up hundreds of furnaces with the help of Weaponry Peak back then before I managed to be promoted.”
“What’s the fast promotion method?”Qin Li couldn’t help but ask.
Yun Shiyu laughed, “That’s something I’d have to ask my master, the Xuan Weapon Immortal King!”
