Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

After staring blankly for a moment, Gu Qing scratched the back of his head, feeling that he had changed a lot.

Since arriving in the Western Sea, he has had an epiphany in the blue sea.

Emotions became more outward, deep thoughts faded somewhat, the importance attached to interests seemed to lessen, and desires and wants increased.

He wasn't sure whether this change was good or bad.

He simply considers "Enlightenment in the Blue Sea" as a relatively important milestone in his life.

Personality changes are actually quite normal.

As people experience different things at different ages in their lives, their personalities will naturally change.

He likes the new version of himself.

Relax your mind, take out a drop of Heavenly Heart Liquid, and drip it onto your forehead.

This divine object, born from the wonders of heaven, can help him clear his mind and enhance his spiritual awareness. It has remarkable effects on the path of spiritual refinement, and long-term use can even cultivate abilities such as the "Pure Nirvana Heart".

It was of great benefit to his path of cultivation. Sensing a slight sense of confusion, Gu Qing decisively used it.

If we compare our state of mind to a calm lake...

The shimmering ripples quickly subsided, just as the saying goes, "a still well has no waves."

His youthful air quickly faded, and the demeanor of a seasoned master began to emerge.

This meditation lasted for seven days.

This day.

Yun Yuyan knocked on the door of Huorong Garden and walked in quickly. After not seeing Gu Qing anywhere, she went straight into her bedroom.

“Gu Qing, Ancestor…”

Suddenly pushing open the door, she saw Gu Qing in the same position as seven days ago, completely naked, and his strong physique immediately stunned Yun Yuyan.

I couldn't help but recall the flogging I received seven days ago.

“Gu Qing…”

With her head bowed and cheeks flushed, she called out softly, but received no response.

Yun Yuyan glanced back, closed the door, and quietly came to his side. She poked Gu Qing's belly button with her slender hand and whispered a curse.

"You pervert, how can you be so careless!"

"Serves you right for being tricked by me."

He chuckled strangely, and was about to get straight to the point by following the lines of her abdomen, when a large hand grabbed her wrist and she looked up abruptly.

Those eyes, which seemed to be both smiling and not smiling, were staring at her.

The breath exhaled suddenly changed its flavor, creating an ambiguous atmosphere.

"I...I...that's not what I meant."

The ancient well, which had been still for seven days, is now turbulent, flowing into the sea as always, never to return.

"Well."

With her lips blocked, Yun Yuyan made a token struggle.

"Don't do anything rash, Ancestor... Ancestor wants to see you."

"Let him wait."

Crunchy————

The small bed rocks gently like a jade boat, its boat full of spring dreams pressing down on the Milky Way.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

Amidst the warm fragrance and soft touch of her body, Gu Qing suddenly sat up, looked at his hands, and spat out a curse.

"Gu Qing, Gu Qing, your mind has just calmed down, how could you fall so low!"

When he looked down and saw the beautiful woman with a languid expression, his appetite was immediately whetted.

he knows.

When the bottom line is repeatedly crossed, then it is no longer a bottom line.

"What's the point of seeing him? Time to sleep."

The next day.

In a small house next to the Yun Clan Ancestral Hall, Gu Qing, led by Yun Yuyan, met the patriarch of the Fire Sect lineage.

An ancestor of the Scorching Sun, a mid-level sixth-rank cultivator, was also one of only two fire sect ancestors among the five great cultivators of the Yun clan. He had waited an extra day for nothing.

Even though Gu Qing was Yun Erlang's savior, and the Scorching Sun Ancestor was no ordinary person, he didn't give Gu Qing a kind look, even though he didn't know what had caused the delay.

This is simply human nature.

Gu Qing wasn't annoyed. A mid-level sixth-grade cultivator was someone he considered equal to him; it was just a minor unease.

"My name is Gu Qing. I have met Ancestor Zhuo Ri."

The old man had a head of red hair and a relatively young-looking face, but there were some Zhu Rong patterns painted on his face. This should be some kind of bloodline secret technique, not painted on. He could sense that this technique enhanced his fire magic.

"Humph."

“Young friend Gu, I appreciate your kindness, but that is not a reason for you to take advantage of my kindness and disrespect me.”

"Misunderstand."

Gu Qing straightened his attitude, explained a few words, and said that the truth or falsehood was not important. His good attitude also saved face for the Old Ancestor Zhuo Ri, so he did not hold a grudge.

"Yu Yan, you go out first. I need to have a good talk with Gu Qing."

"Yes, ancestor."

It can be seen that Yun Yuyan's status in the eyes of the Scorching Sun Ancestor was not particularly high, at least not as high as that of the eldest daughter of the main branch and the second son.

She simply gave Gu Qing a reassuring look before leaving.

It is evident that Yun Yuyan's bloodline talent as the daughter of Zhurong has not been discovered, and Gu Qing has no intention of revealing it; it's better to enjoy the joy alone than to share it with others.

He did indeed take a liking to Yun Yuyan.

The original explanation was revised, and it's not bad to do both plans A and B together.

"Speak, what reward do you want? As long as I have it, I will grant it to you."

“Ancestor Zhuo Ri is too kind. I am not a greedy person. I only have a small request. I wonder if the Ancestor can grant it.”

"Tell me about it."

"Give Yu Yan to me, and she will stay by my side for the rest of my life."

"Oh?"

The Scorching Sun Ancestor was taken aback, not expecting Gu Qing to be such a sentimental person. After considering it for a moment, he spoke.

"Do you know that Yu Yan was once married?"

"It's alright. Those who cultivate immortality and seek the Dao never care about such things. Besides, isn't her husband dead?"

"She is dead, but the marriage contract has not been dissolved. In principle, Yu Yan is still Gao's daughter-in-law, she just lives in the Beidou Islands."

"The Gao family?"

“That’s right, the eldest son of a collateral branch of the Gao family, one of the three coastal clans.”

The implication of the Old Ancestor of the Scorching Sun was that there was no problem in principle, but if problems arose, it had nothing to do with him.

"Very well, then thank you for your kindness, Ancestor Zhuo Ri."

"Hahahaha, young friend Gu is also a rare young talent. He was able to fight Blood Blade Zhuang Jiu head-on, and he also has the potential to break through to the sixth rank. May I ask where he comes from?"

Plan A is proceeding smoothly, and Plan B will be carried out concurrently.

"I come from the Mi clan, one of the eight clans under the Flame Immortal Mountain in the Heavenly Wasteland. This is my maternal clan, and I also have some connection with the Yun clan."

"I see."

The Scorching Sun Ancestor had heard the detailed report from his subordinates and knew that Gu Qing had extraordinary attainments in the way of fire, so it was not surprising that he came from one of the eight surnames of Zhu Rong.

Having learned about it, they also guessed Gu Qing's plan.

"You want to learn the fire magic of Zhurong?"

"Yes."

When faced with such a shrewd and experienced senior, there's no need to hide one's intentions; others can guess them anyway. Otherwise, why would anyone help them?

"I have read the records of the Yun clan in the clan history books and know some of the inside story. Although it is somewhat different from what I imagined, I am sincere towards Yu Yan. If we can get married, we may have a better chance to learn the law."

The Scorching Sun Ancestor remained silent, pondering how much sincerity Gu Qing had in his words.

But then I thought, since everyone's already here, it's impossible not to do something, so I might as well make things clear.

"The legacy of Zhurong is the foundation of the Yun clan. Although it has changed over the years since we came to the near sea, its essence remains the same. If you want to learn it, you must be willing to make sacrifices."

“I am ready, please speak freely, Ancestor Zhuo Ri.”

"Okay!" (End of Chapter)
