“I’ll help you regain your youth!”
Qin Li imprinted a palm on Yun Shiyu’s forehead.
The Qiankun Bead’s light shone brightly, and after absorbing the right leg of the glaze just now, its colour deepened by a few more points, and it had already transformed into a green bead.
According to the usual practice, the Qian Kun Bead would feed back a portion of its vitality to help Qin Li advance to a higher level. However, this time, Qin Li transferred the vitality to Yun Shiyu’s body to help her breakthrough.
“What a powerful vitality!”
Yun Shiyu was shocked in her heart as she crossed her knees to cultivate.
Her originally withered face instantly filled up, wrinkles disappeared, her white hair returned to black, and she returned to her old age. The skin was as bare and delicate as a baby’s skin, and a green haze even erupted from the pores, this was all life essence.
“Absorb it with all your might, don’t waste this chance.”Qin Li’s eyes glazed over as he directly infused the sword qi in his body into Yun Shiyu’s body, helping her to regulate her vital energy and soak her flesh.
“So painful!”
Yun Shiyu clenched her silver teeth in extreme pain.
She felt like there were ten thousand fire ants in her body eating her flesh and blood, and although it was painful, it eliminated the dregs and improved her qualifications.
Originally, Yun Shiyu was just an ordinary genius, and with this chance, she metamorphosed into a great genius, and her cultivation skyrocketed all the way up, and she managed to advance to the third rank of Immortal King, but that wasn’t the end of it.
The vitality in the right leg of the glaze was too rich, and Yun Shiyu did not have Qin Li’s kind of seafaring physique, so she was pushed to ascend, and it seemed that she had to impact the Immortal King Fourth Grade, causing her meridians to be broken by inches, but as soon as the vitality was injected, the meridians recovered again. As if it was broken, the meridians became tougher and tougher, it was that kind of pain that almost caused Yun Shiyu to run out of breath.
“Calm down! Endure!”
Qin Li stood firm, his voice like snow:
“It’s hard to see the rainbow without encountering the storm, and it’s hard to be a hero without suffering.”
“Do you remember Plum Blossom Jushi’s criticism of you? He said that you don’t have a prideful bone because you, a person from the Eastern Immortal Palace, are more or less influenced by pomp and circumstance and have a weak will, and now suffering is an opportunity to wash away the lead and achieve a new me.”
Yun Shiyu gritted her teeth to bear it, silent, to prove her courage.
Little by little, time by time.
The butterfly in the wind finally breaks through the cocoon, retiring the old skin for a new life.
Yun Shiyu sat motionless, but her cultivation climbed straight up, breaking through the three or four barriers and becoming a great expert of the fourth rank of Immortal King.
There was also an even more marvellous change in her body, a layer of old skin had risen all over her body, just like a layer of silkworm chrysalis, vaguely translucent with a green light, nurturing extraordinary life.
“How did I moult my skin!”Yun Shiyu was astonished.
“You go wash yourself in the green lake up there!”Qin Li smiled.
Yun Shiyu flew up cleanly to have a good wash.
Qin Li, however, stayed in the sealed space.
At this moment!
Liuli’s right foot was ruined.
The thick chains were as rotten and broken as they could be.
Only the trunk at the centre still stood, emitting golden light.
“This should be the Evil Warding Divine Wood, it has the effect of suppressing demons and evils, benefiting the Yang and strengthening life, and it belongs to the ninth grade material. No wonder the Twin Immortals chose this place as a seal, it seems to be to suppress the grievances of the right foot of the glazed glass.”
Qin Li raises his hand and splits it, uprooting the Evil-Preventing Divine Wood, “The Divine Wood and the glazed right foot have been consumed for so many years, and the grade has dropped slightly, but mixed with all other materials, it can refine a seventh-grade artefact and a seventh-grade dan furnace.”
He had always had an idea of having a seventh-grade Dan furnace of his own, and a seventh-grade weapon refining cauldron. Now, it seemed that the Dan Furnace was expected, but his Weaponry Refining Technique was only at the Sixth Grade, so he still had to make a trip back to the Western Region to ask for the help of Senior Master Jin Guang, who was a Seventh Grade Weaponry Refiner after all.
“Qin Li, send me a new dress!”
Yun Shiyu’s voice came.
Qin Li jumped up.
As soon as he came out!
He saw Yun Shiyu who was washing up.
Thanks to the glazed vitality, Yun Shiyu had shed her skin and also moulted a layer of old skin. The new skin was even more jade-white, translucent with a healthy reddish hue, and there were no traces of pores to be seen at all, which was a symbol of completeness.
If one looked closely, she was again much more beautiful, her eyes were bright and translucent, her shellfish teeth were crystalline and lustrous, her three thousand green silks hung down like a waterfall, and her body was also permeated with an ethereal body fragrance.
The most amazing thing was that she was covered in a layer of glittering precious light, really beautiful and luminous, bearing out the temperament of not eating fire.
“What are you staring at me for?”
Yun Shiyu was a little shy, but her heart was more than pleased.
Qin Li embraced her into his arms, gentle like clouds, gentle like water, just like a lake of rottenness, but it was really an infinite scenery.
“Don’t look, the Northern Region is a bit cold, didn’t you buy several sets of cotton clothes for me? Quickly take them out!”Yun Shiyu urged.
“So you’re cold, said so earlier! Let me help you move your muscles, soon you won’t be cold anymore.”Qin Li let out a light laugh.
……
The underground cave.
A lake of green springs was always wave-free.
However, today was strange, the water waves shook continuously, and there were layers of waves splashing out, which only subsided after an hour.
“There are some things you need to know, the Western Region but there are several of your sisters, no need for you to work so hard. By the way, after returning to the Western Region, you guys have to get along well.”
“Aren’t you staying in the Northern Domain?”Yun Shiyu froze for a moment.
Qin Li slowly said, “My heart still looks towards the Western Domain, after all, there are my wife and children, friends and mentors there, and it’s also one of the few places that can give my family warmth.”
“But what about where the Demon Lord is?”Yun Shiyu was also somewhat in trouble.
Qin Li frowned very deeply, “The Demon Monarch treats me too well, and before that, he even specifically saved my life, this favour is just too heavy. Half a year from now, it will be the Demon Monarch’s birthday banquet, I shall return the favour with a heavy gift as a farewell.”
“Hmm! I’ll help you out, I’ll be a good virtuous assistant.”Yun Shiyu snuggled into Qin Li’s arms, enjoying a moment of tranquillity.
“You! It’s better to honestly cultivate and stop burning your home.”Qin Li scraped Yun Shiyu’s agitated nose.
A night of warmth was exchanged!
The duo returned to Eternal Night City.
Life had to go on, things couldn’t rest.
Qin Li went all out to organise the Demon Lord’s birthday banquet, and Ye Qingyue was busy.
Although he had half a year’s time, Qin Li resolutely stopped cultivating and reserved his free world for the Artifact Refining and Alchemy Arts.
Alchemy was originally a consummate art, and the more one exercised it, the more it became pure. The Art of Weaponry Refining, with the help of the Book of Weaponry Immortals, had progressed all the way to the sixth rank, and would soon be able to impact the seventh rank. As a price for all this, Qin Li’s cultivation was stuck at Immortal King Eighth Grade.
Time was like water!
Gurgling water passed away, and the years mercilessly chopped away.
In the blink of an eye, it was half a year, and the opening of the Demon Lord’s birthday banquet was imminent.
Qin Li got up and changed into a new set of clothes to show his solemnity and respect.
Ye Qingyue climbed out from the quilt and smiled, ”You’re so gentle today! Not going to accompany your little wife.”
Qin Li touched Ye Qingyue’s forehead and said, “Don’t be paranoid, I’m just seeing that you’re too tired and treating you.”
Ye Qingyue’s heart thumped, she was an extremely intelligent woman, she had detected Qin Li’s dissimilarity in the past few days, and then listening to these words, she felt that there was something in the words, it seemed to be a warmth in the parting goings-on.
Suddenly.
Clang clang clang!
Three mellifluous bells chimed.
“The birthday banquet is about to begin!”
Qin Li hurriedly packed his clothes and urged, “Get up!”
How dare Ye Qingyue be slow, directly changing into a set of metaphysical coloured palace clothes, as mysterious as the night, embellished with stars and stones, just like the stars in the night sky, further accentuating his beauty and magnificence.
Out of the Princess House!
The two of them came above the street.
Compared to half a year ago, there was a Xuan Iron pillar on the street, three zhang high, divided into two rows, and topped with large beads.
Ye Qingyue curiously said, “What the hell is this, now that the whole city is full of these iron pillars, and you’re slow to say what they’re for, it’s weirdly ugly.”
Qin Li said indifferently, “Don’t worry, just take a good look!”
The words fell!
The precious pearls on the pillars began to glow.
The rows of pillars were all radiant, like the stars in the sky falling into the Eternal Night City.
Originally, there was no sun in the city, only the aurora borealis illuminated it, and the light was rather grey. Now that the group of pendants were shining, the large city was as bright as day.
And that’s not all, the largest treasure pearl, set in the aurora grand hall, like a small sun, the light is glittering, enveloping the whole city but not blinding, as soft as starlight.
“This is the Star Lamp, a third-grade artefact, absorbing starlight to illuminate the entire city. And I’ve specially toned down the brightness, after all, the overall atmosphere of the Eternal Night City is rather solemn, and over-acclaimed brightness would be rather fancy.”Qin Li smiled faintly, this was actually just a street lamp on Earth.
