Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

This talisman is entirely black, made with stardust as ink.

It seemed full of inspiration, but in reality it contained a wisp of deep demonic energy, which surprised Gu Qing. But upon further reflection, it didn't seem quite right.

Why would the Immortal Lord of Prayer for Good Harvests, who has served on the Ascension Platform for so long, resort to underhanded tactics as soon as he arrives? He must have done more than once in all this time.

Especially for those who have ascended to immortality, using immortal pills as bait makes it easier to control their opponents. There must be a group of heavenly soldiers and generals who are his doing.

Just ask around how many ascendants have reached the Immortal Lord realm by chance over the past 100,000 years, and you'll have a good idea.

After agreeing for the time being, Gu Qing took his leave.

There's no way I'll give him the vine leaves. He earned them through his own abilities. What good would they do for Qinian? He hasn't been wasting his time.

According to information obtained from Qi Yue.

Qinian also came from humble beginnings. It is said that he was an ordinary immortal from Xuanhuang Daozhou who was promoted. He had no illustrious background. According to the concept of bloodline supremacy in the Mountain and Sea Realm, he may have been helped by others.

This helper is most likely a member of the demon race, but the relationship between Qi Nian and them is more like that of collaborators than lackeys; it's somewhat like seeking help from a tiger.

The leaves of the Primordial Divine Vine were likely items traded with the Demon Clan.

As for the demonic energy within the talisman, that remains unknown.

To understand the situation in Beihai, Gu Qing needed to delve deeper into it.

Just as he was preparing, the opportunity came unexpectedly.

One day, more than a month later.

The three rings of the Heavenly Palace Imperial Bell signify the start of the Heavenly Palace Court Assembly, which must be attended by the four Great Immortal Venerables, the Eight Departments of the Heavenly Palace, and all immortals of the fifth rank or above.

Gu Qing was not qualified to participate, but she could learn about the content of the court assembly from Qi Yue.

Just as Qinian said, the aquatic creatures from the North Sea came to the Heavenly Palace to perform their duties and requested a batch of celestial medicines to support them. The situation there was a bit complicated.

There are six realms in the mountains and seas, except for the human realm, which is directly adjacent to the immortal realm.

The northern sea of ​​the celestial realm is connected to the demon realm.

There are numerous passages between immortals and demons, some open and some hidden. There has always been a war there, not an invasion by the demon race, but by all sorts of demons, monsters, and evil spirits.

Every group will have some villains.

There are immortals, demons, and underworld races. Some of these races commit numerous evil deeds, and there are also some demons, vicious evil spirits, and so on.

These guys can't survive in their own tribe.

Therefore, they carved out a barren land in the demon realm, which happened to be near the passage between the two realms of the North Sea, and thus frequently raided both the immortal and demon realms.

In the early years, the four great immortals had all gone to cleanse the evil land, but it was like weeds, one batch after another, and evildoers from the six realms would gather there.

There are no beings of the Demon Lord's caliber; they are just minor troublemakers who, aside from being annoying, pose no real threat.

The land wasn't cleaned up properly, and over time, its reputation as a "bad land" spread. The immortals then focused on defense, figuring it wasn't a big problem since it wasn't on their own territory.

This task was undertaken by the Beihai Aquatic Group.

Therefore, it is reasonable to say that they have been at war for many years. The need to dispatch a batch of elixirs must mean that something major has happened and many people have been seriously injured.

With this in mind, the demon talisman that Qinian gave Gu Qing in his hand becomes quite interesting.

The Blood Sea Realm borders the Demon Realm and is also connected to the Fallen God Abyss of the Immortal Realm. The latter is guarded by heavenly soldiers and generals, while the Demon Realm serves as an important strategic buffer zone, allowing the war to be fought elsewhere without affecting the Immortal Realm.

Numerous policies were also the root cause of the demon race's growing resentment towards the immortal race after their defeat.

Since the Golden Crow Demon Emperor was killed by the Celestial Emperor of the Heavenly Palace, the nine major tribes of the demon race have always been autonomous in their respective regions. They nominally submit to the new Heavenly Fox Demon Emperor, but in reality, they are dissatisfied with his weakness and incompetence and have been secretly making things difficult for him.

If this continues, a second war between the immortals and demons is inevitable. The content of the court meeting was even more explosive.

Due to its unique nature, the evil lands are impossible to eradicate completely. This time, the aquatic creatures of the North Sea came not only to seek medicine but also to request reinforcements.

Legend has it that a nine-headed demon dragon emerged from the Badlands. It was a demon lord who rebelled against the Hundred-Eyed Demon Dragon clan of the demon race. Later, it cultivated demonic arts in the Badlands and became famous in a battle against the aquatic race.

Having slain several Venerable Ones of the Aquatic Tribes and severely damaged the various tribes of the North Sea, a large number of demons and monsters have poured into the North Sea to plunder, greatly damaging the reputation of the Immortal Realm.

What's even more interesting is that the demon realm turns a blind eye.

Apart from the fox clan sending a demon army to provide support, not a single soldier from the other eight major tribes came.

We obtained all the information from Qi Yue.

Gu Qing had a more comprehensive perspective than them and quickly deduced a possibility.

The demon talisman in his hand might be the fuse that ignites a war between the immortals and demons. By using war to attract attention, the two sides fight, and the fisherman profits, thus breaking the seal on the Fallen God Abyss.
"No, the demon talisman is just one of the triggers. Even if a demon lord attacks the immortal clan's support troops, as long as the Heavenly Fox Demon Emperor backs down and mediates, the immortal clan will not easily start a war, given their nature. The demon clan must have other plans."

Chaos is a ladder, but Gu Qing dislikes encountering it during the development process.

The whole thing is clear: it's nothing more than instigating a war between the two races so that the demons can take the opportunity to achieve their own goals.

What he needs to understand are the participants and the unknown forces at play.

The demon realm is the center; perhaps I should make a trip there.

For cultivators at the mid-stage of the sixth rank, with enough immortal spirit crystals in hand, it doesn't matter where they are, so they might as well go out and explore.

While exploring and collecting rare water and soil treasures, they also investigated the more detailed inside story of this matter.

Judging solely by strength, he could defeat an ordinary immortal venerable.

He's not qualified for the level of Great Immortal Venerable or Immortal Emperor yet. It might be different once he breaks through to the sixth rank. We'll have to wait a bit longer.

Gu Qing planned to secretly follow the support team to the North Sea and take a look at the Demon Realm along the way.

Given the efficiency of Tiangong Moji, it will probably take some time.

A new plan has been unveiled.

Gu Qing continued to refine the Phoenix Undying Qi every day, cultivate the Nine Revolutions Nirvana Divine Power, and never stopped refining the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends. His strength improved every day.

The sixth-grade mid-level Heavenly Gang Revolving Wheel will be the fastest perfected realm he can reach after breaking through to the sixth grade. The Phoenix Blood Pool is also becoming more and more complete. When he breaks through, this Nirvana Immortal Artifact will be completely restored.

Several months later, the Tiangong process was completed.

A group of aquatic creatures from the North Sea came to the Immortal Medicine Garden to personally select immortal medicines to heal their injuries. To Gu Qing's surprise, he saw an acquaintance.

Little White Dragon Ao Miaoge!

He calculated that he had been in the Mountain and Sea Realm for nearly forty years. When he crossed the outer layer of chaotic divine lightning protection, he concluded that apart from Ao Miaoge and the disciple from Kunlun Immortal Mountain, no one could pass through safely.

The only way to survive is to withstand the first bolt of chaotic divine lightning, activate the boundary marker, and return.

Ao Miaoge was able to overcome the obstacle because she believed she possessed enough magical treasures to force her way in, and indeed, that was the case.

Upon seeing Gu Qing, Ao Miaoge's eyes lit up.

Transmit the message.

"After we parted ways upon entering the realm, I almost thought I had become a lone figure in Cangwu. It's so good that you're alright."

"No rush, let's talk in detail after we've selected the elixirs. I'll wait for you here."

"Okay." (End of Chapter)
