Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

Qingqiu Immortal Mountain.

This place is different from the Twelve Immortal Gates that Gu Qing had visited. It only has a mountain shaped like a reclining fox, as if it were carved by man, with nine tails suddenly rising from the tail end.

Its head turned back, and its fox mouth was slightly open.

Due to the unchanged ancestral land of the fox clan, in addition to human cultivators, there are also a large number of white foxes, red foxes, and gray foxes. They exist in a state between the real and the unreal, coexisting with cultivators, relying on divine cultivation, and can only manifest in the world through divine consciousness.

The nine wildly waving fox tails represent nine different lineages of Qingqiu Mountain. Gu Qing landed near the fox head mountain.

Due to its enormous size and the special spatial extension array it is arranged in, the closer you get, the more blurred your perception of its shape becomes. When you are actually standing on solid ground, it is no different from walking on flat ground.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, please follow me."

"it is good."

Along the way, Fairy Butterfly would also introduce Gu Qing to the unique scenery of Qingqiu Mountain. Occasionally, some little foxes that had not yet signed a contract and still had physical bodies would run through the woods.

It presents a vibrant and energetic scene, full of life and vitality.

This made Gu Qing think of his other wife, wondering how she was doing and whether she had found a suitable world in the Ruins of Return.

"Fellow?"

"They're here—"

Besides the memories of seeing familiar objects, the environment of the Qingqiu spiritual vein was also quite nice. I first met the ancestor of Qingqiu Mountain and exchanged pleasantries for a while.

Gu Qing was led to a quiet room, and Fairy Butterfly followed closely behind, taking out the treasure he had been longing for.

"This is the [Heavenly Universe Array Diagram]?!"

“That’s right. As long as Fellow Daoist Gu doesn’t leave Qingqiu Mountain, you may observe freely. Just remember to return it to me when you leave the mountain.”

"It's natural."

This treasure exists in the form of a scroll. Just by looking at the cloud patterns embroidered on the outside, Gu Qing felt a growing fascination with it, and couldn't help but feel ashamed.

After the Butterfly Fairy left, he waved his sleeve and rearranged the formation of the secluded cultivation place. He left his divine sense on guard before immersing himself in the comprehension.

As the number one treasure of array formations in the Cangwu cultivation world, and also a treasure of immortal grade, it is extremely difficult to comprehend, just like Gu Qing's comprehension of the Phoenix Blood Pool back then.

He was able to master it because he borrowed the immortal spiritual energy of the Mountain and Sea Realm to repair the broken immortal treasure. Now, he has no help at all in comprehending it.

It all comes down to one's own understanding.

Gu Qing calmly drank a cup of Enlightenment Tea, opened the Weapon Refining Panel, found "Array Refining Weapon Refining Dao: Hundred Treasures Array Refining Method", and with a tap of his hand, his abundant lifespan began to burn.

The synchronized consumption of Dao Points continuously replenishes the lost Lifespan, and when looking at the [Heavenly Universe Array Diagram] again, one feels a sense of sudden enlightenment.

Everything gradually unfolded before his eyes, like peeling back layers of an onion. He efficiently extracted the parts that were beneficial to him and incorporated them into the profound mysteries of the [Array Refining Path]. Gradually, a new lineage, no less than the [Jinyun Weapon Ancestral Method], became complete and exquisite.

About a month later, Gu Qing finally awoke from his initial comprehension.

"It's so mysterious!"

The revamped array-refining methods brought Gu Qing a great deal of inspiration, especially in terms of improving the [Cave Heaven Immortal Garden], which gave him new ideas.

The Way of Arrays takes the heavens and earth as its teacher, peering into the rules of the world, that is, the order of laws, and mastering them with the art of spirit patterns, using the power of the heavens and earth to its own advantage.

Ultimately, alchemy, artifacts, talismans, and arrays all lead to the same destination: aligning with the Great Dao.

Gu Qing generated a large number of ideas and thoughts.

If you feel that the growth rate of the Celestial Garden is too slow, you can use the method of array artifacts to set up a large array, simulate the rules of the Cangwu Immortal Cultivation World, and improve the immortal laws within the Celestial Garden.

It has to be said that this is also a shortcut. Just force-feed them.

Previously, the peerless divine power [Life Creation Thunder] that he had deduced was of too high a grade and he had not cultivated it for long enough to provide much help in battles of the same level.

But he is the creator of the laws, and today, with his thinking and vision expanded to the extreme, he may have found new ways to utilize supernatural powers and laws, combined with the art of array refining.

Gu Qing opened the Void Ring and poured out all the equipment of grade six and above, and the mysterious light and treasure aura immediately enveloped the cave.

His accumulated personal wealth, if not unparalleled, was certainly among the top, making him an absolute tycoon; the treasures he plundered were countless.

In addition, the number of personal storage equipment and treasures obtained from killing several fifth-rank beings is enormous.

Gu Qing first took out the golden heart of the Six-Eyed Starry Sky Ape and the Martial Dao Heavenly Eye, pondered for a moment, and then put them back. These things were not suitable for refining array artifacts.

He wanted to use the principles of the peerless divine power [Life-Creating Thunder] as a basis to refine a set of suitable creation array artifacts and integrate them into the "Cave Heaven Immortal Garden" to help him comprehend the ultimate principles of creation and perfect his own immortal laws.

"Fifth Grade Lower · Source of Life Wood"

"Fifth Grade, Middle Grade - Innate Thunder Lotus"

"Fifth Grade, Lower Level - Illusionary Dragon Pearl".

"Rank 6, Upper Grade: Wood Green Crystal".

Examining all sorts of materials, counting them one by one, as the flames of iridescent color rose, Gu Qing entered a state of complete seclusion.

The main base of the Western Wilderness Demon Clan, Vajra Glazed Mountain.

This place was temporarily used as the headquarters of the Six Desolate Demon Army, and all six supreme demon emperors, namely Golden Crow Emperor, Thunder Qilin, Heavenly Golden Crocodile, Golden Suanni, Mermaid Emperor, and Lady White Bone, were present.

Looking at the sparse number of people, Emperor Jinwu couldn't help but say something.

"Since the start of the war, the Sun-Devouring Hou died mysteriously, the Six-Eyed Starry Sky Ape died due to our carelessness, and two of the eight supreme demon emperors have already perished. Now, there are only two paths we can take."

Seeing that the master here had no intention of speaking, Lei Qilin, who had been acting alongside the Golden Crow Emperor, chimed in.

Which two roads?

Emperor Jinwu stood up and extended one finger.

"Firstly, we should seek help from His Majesty the Heavenly Demon Emperor."

"Secondly, awaken the ancestors of each royal family."

Yes, the demon race's true strength doesn't just consist of the eight supreme demon emperors on the surface. After all, the human race alone has six, and each of the four seas has two to three supreme dragon lords, plus the various old dragon kings who have suppressed the sea eyes.

With such a small number of powerful individuals, it is absolutely impossible for the demon race to become the Supreme Being of Cangwu or the Ruler of the Eight Desolations.

In the past, the five ancestors of the human race suppressed and killed many powerful and ferocious celestial demons, recruited the four ancient fierce beasts to protect the human race, and befriended many divine beasts.

At a time when humanity was flourishing, he chose to ascend.

However, as many divine beasts ascended to heaven or mysteriously disappeared, and human allies vanished one after another, the demon race, weakened by its power, chose to wage a second inter-clan war.

In this great conflict, the human race produced twelve fourth-rank immortal lords, completely crippling the demon race and killing those who deserved to die.

Thus it completely declined. Some old guys who were lucky enough to survive found a secluded place, sealed themselves with the immortal techniques of the upper realm, slowed down the rate at which their lifespans were lost, and fell into a deep sleep.

Most of them were old fellows who had given up hope of ascension, abandoning their cultivation paths, which became the last remaining treasure of the demon race hidden in the world. (End of this chapter)
