Chapter 510: Chapter 510: Obtaining the Gold Spiritual Bead (2)_1

"No matter what we do, we must wait for Yong Xing to leave before we can act," Dugu Qianye said. With her current strength, she stood no chance of winning if she were to face Yong Xing directly. Only by waiting for him to leave could she attempt to seize the Gold Spiritual Bead. "By the way, Little Huihui, besides the entrance, is there any other passageway that leads to that place?"

Little Huihui shook its head and said, "This side is sealed off from the other to prevent either side from learning of the other’s existence. We did dig many tunnels, but they are all too small for you to fit through."

"It seems we have no choice but to wait," Dugu Qianye said. "Let’s go to the entrance and wait there..."

She then recalled both the white mouse and Little Huihui into the Refining Demon Pot, had Jiang Yu render her invisible once more, and left the stone prison to head outside, leaving behind four corpses and an empty cage.

Elsewhere, Yong Xing looked at the sword that was beginning to take shape and at the Gold Spiritual Bead continuously orbiting it, joy unrestrained in his eyes.

He had always wanted to forge a spirit sword that would surpass the Xuanyuan Sword, and melting the Gold Spiritual Bead into the spirit sword was Jian Fengxing’s bold idea. If successful, it would certainly be more powerful than the Xuanyuan Sword!

After hundreds of years of refinement and forging, the spirit sword was barely taking form, indicative of the challenging process. Yet, even the initially formed sword possessed such an imposing aura; once fully realized, it was destined to transcend all Spiritual Energy and become the king of spirit swords! Once he possessed it, he would surpass Zi Xiao and Mang Qianjun to become the world’s greatest!

"The Gold Spiritual Bead seems to have shrunk a bit, and its color is also paler. It looks like its Spiritual Energy is being absorbed by the spirit sword," Gong Shi said, observing the revolving Gold Spiritual Bead in the furnace below.

Yong Xing, watching the Gold Spiritual Bead, instructed Jian Fengxing, "Tell them to speed up the process and merge the Gold Spiritual Bead as quickly as possible. Understand?"

"Yes, my lord," Jian Fengxing replied, accepting the order. "They mentioned before that the Gold Spiritual Bead only resists at the beginning. Once it starts to melt, the process will be swift. It won’t take much longer to complete afterward."

"Well done," Yong Xing praised. "Keep up the good work, and later I’ll have Taotie send over some beauties."

Jian Fengxing’s affinity for beautiful women and his tendency to torture them was a public secret in the Heavenly Spiritual Realm. Yong Xing, who trusted no one fully, surely had every detail of his affairs investigated, even his relationship with Ding Ru! However, as long as it didn’t interfere with his own plans, what they did was their own business, and he didn’t care.

Yong Xing had intended to personally witness the complete fusion of the Gold Spiritual Bead into the sword, but after watching for a short while, suddenly a message from a Qiong Qi made his expression darken.

"My Lord, what has happened?" Gong Shi asked, noticing the abrupt change in Yong Xing’s demeanor.

"Damn Zi Xiao! He’s leading an attack on the corpse-farming base I have on Milin Continent!" Yong Xing glanced at the Gold Spiritual Bead in the furnace and said, "We have a third of our forces there. If he manages to destroy it... Gong Shi, come with me. Jian Fengxing, stay here and guard the place, ensuring the Divine Sword is forged successfully. If anything goes awry, you’ll pay with your life!"

After delivering his command, Yong Xing left with Gong Shi. Jian Fengxing saw them off the forbidden grounds, then turned and returned to the underground base.

Dugu Qianye arrived at the entrance and entered the Refining Demon Pot, watching through Dudu as Jian Fengxing saw off Yong Xing. It was her first time seeing Yong Xing, yet he felt eerily familiar, just like when she first saw Zi Xiao and Mang Qianjun. The difference being the sense of kinship she felt with the latter two, whereas Yong Xing inspired a peculiar feeling she couldn’t quite identify.

She watched the gates of the forbidden land open, saw Jian Yuezhi accompanied by several elders bidding farewell, watched as Yong Xing soared into the sky and then disappeared from view. She stroked the purple jade bracelet on her wrist and felt a warm current flow through her heart.

Just shortly after she left the stone chamber, the bracelet on her hand emitted a burst of light, and the shadow of Zi Xiao appeared before her.

"Little Yeye," Zi Xiao looked at Dugu Qianye with indulgent affection.

"Xiao, how did you get here?" Dugu Qianye asked with joy upon seeing Zi Xiao.

Zi Xiao wanted to embrace Dugu Qianye and stretched out his hand, only to lower it again.

"This is just a shadow projected by my Purple Jade; it doesn’t even count as a true projection," Zi Xiao explained, "Has that guy Yong Xing gone to the Refiners Sect?"

"How did you know?" asked Dugu Qianye.

"The Flame Army has returned," Zi Xiao said, giving Dugu Qianye a stern look, "Why did you send them all back? Even if they don’t gather intelligence, they would still be good to have around as enforcers."

Upon hearing Zi Xiao’s words, Yan in the Refining Demon Pot looked at him with a grievance. He wanted to say, "My lord, we of the Flame Army are the second-most powerful among all the armies, the word ’enforcer’..."

Dugu Qianye smiled and replied, "Don’t you also need more hands? Their presence here would only hold me back."

"Now that you’ve sent everyone back, what more can I say. How far are you from that guy Yong Xing now?" Zi Xiao inquired.

"He and I are now on the same mountain," Dugu Qianye shared the details about the Gold Spiritual Bead and the forbidden area with Zi Xiao.

"That close?" Zi Xiao fell silent then said, "No, you’re too close to him; he could easily discover you. If that guy comes along with Qiong Qi, they will surely sniff you out. Little Yeye, I’ll lure him away, and you take the chance to grab the Gold Spiritual Bead, then leave the Heavenly Spiritual Realm quickly. I really don’t feel at ease with you there."

"Alright," Dugu Qianye nodded obediently. She also knew that once she got hold of the Gold Spiritual Bead, Yong Xing would definitely be able to trace her.

"Hmm, let me think about how to draw that guy away. Maybe I should kick over his den of rotting corpses," after some thought, Zi Xiao said, "Little Yeye, I’m off; you take care. And make sure to let me know when you’re safe, alright?"

Dugu Qianye watched the figure that was fading more and more, her face etched with annoyance.

Thus ensued the scene of Yong Xing leaving.

Once Jian Fengxing entered the cave, Dugu Qianye emerged from the Refining Demon Pot. After she had been made invisible by Jiang Yu, she approached the cave entrance. There was a Barrier at the entrance too, but it wasn’t very powerful, so for Jiang Yu, it posed no problem, and she breezed right in.

Although Jian Fengxing was one of Yong Xing’s more important subordinates, he spent most of his time on Artifact Refining due to being an Artifact Refiner. Hence, his Spiritual Power level wasn’t that high, having only just broken through to the Venerable Level, still a bit weaker than Dugu Qianye. Plus, with her invisibility, she trailed him all the way without him noticing.

Dugu Qianye followed Jian Fengxing to the place where the Divine Sword was being forged. She noticed that there was a guard every ten steps, and their might was not meager; should someone try to intrude, they would certainly not be able to leave unscathed!
