792 - 798

Chapter 792

"I…" Under the burning scrutiny of the five women, Zhou Weiqing could only let out a dejected sigh, "Alright, I give up. Frankly, it's impossible for me to have absolutely no desire because I'm a man after all. However, the moment I thought of you all, I immediately kept my hands to myself. On top of that, the Elven Queen is the highest and purest being in the Elf Tribe. How could she possibly let me do anything to her? I swear to God, if I really did something to the Elven Queen, all of you will stop loving me. This is terrible enough… Right?"

The moment they heard him saying this, even Shangguan Fei'er who had been relentless in pursuing the issue, stopped the interrogation at once. She chuckled and said, "Alright then, we'll trust you this time. Since you're so well-behaved, I'll reward you when we go back."

Tian'er added nonchalantly by the side, "Yeah, I can prove that the relationship between him and the Elven Queen is indeed pure. Although she also received the infusion of Saint Energy from Weiqing, that kind of infusion feels different from the type of infusion that we received after we did that. The infusion is merely superficial. On top of that, Weiqing's scent is not on the Queen at all. Because Weiqing and I cultivated the Saint Energy together, I can feel all of this with my senses."

Stunned, Zhou Weiqing looked at her, "Oh, darling! Why didn't you tell them earlier?"

Tian'er blinked her eyes innocently as she said, "Well, they didn't ask me! Moreover, since you're such a playboy anyway, it's good if you're taught a lesson."

"You…" Zhou Weiqing was a little exasperated.

Tian'er instantly burst out laughing, "What? Do you want to hit me now? Come on then!" As she was saying these words, she even protruded her stomach towards Zhou Weiqing.

"Alright fine, you win!" Exasperated, he looked at the five girls who were smirking happily, "It looks like I only have hard days ahead of me now. It's fine, just keep on joining hands and bully me together. Watch out though, I might run away one day, you know."

"You dare?" The five girls said almost in unison.

Due to his cultivation base being elevated again, Zhou Weiqing's speed in returning to the Heavenly Bow Empire with his five girls was even faster than when they first came. In just a few days time, they had already returned to the Heavenly Bow City.

Long Shiya and Wu Yueyun were still in their closed-door cultivation with the help of Zhou Weiqing's Saint Energy. Ming Yu, on the other hand, had already returned to the frontline long ago. In this period of time, the Baida Empire was extremely peaceful but even then, nobody dared to lower their guard at all. After all, even if the Heavenly Bow Empire had already conquered and annexed the Kalise Empire, it still could not be compared to other orthodox power empires like the Baida Empire.

The first thing Zhou Weiqing did was to pay a visit to both his godfather and real father. After he made sure that the Heavenly Bow Empire was safe, he proceeded to find Duan Tianlang.

Now that he had brought back their most important ingredient — the Elven Queen's Blood, there was no doubt that his next step was to forge the eleventh piece of the Ringless Ground Purging Set's Consolidated Equipment Scroll with Duan Tianlang. Zhou Weiqing had no idea how long it would take for them to complete it but one could easily imagine the difficulty it would bring forth.

"Junior Master, I'm back." He knocked on the door.

"Did you bring it back with you?" Duan Tianlang's eager voice could be heard first before he appeared. The door opened and at once, his unshaven face appeared behind the door. The instance he saw Zhou Weiqing, he quickly pulled him into the room.

Zhou Weiqing chuckled, "Of course I've brought it back with me. You asked me to do it personally. How can I possibly fail the mission that you've given me? The Elf Tribe had even promised me that I have free access to their resources anytime I want from now on."

Duan Tianlang jeered at him, "Yeah, continue to brag, won't you? Hurry! Quickly show me that thing!" The second he heard Zhou Weiqing had brought back the Elven Blood, Duan Tianlang immediately became very excited. His eyes were lit up brightly as he extended both of his hands out.

Zhou Weiqing passed the Elven Blood to Duan Tianlang as he asked, "Junior Master, so how's the design blueprint now? And all the other materials as well?"

Duan Tianlang chuckled out loud, "Everything is ready. I'm only waiting for this baby that you brought back." Looking at the small green bottle that Zhou Weiqing passed to him, he turned and walked towards his work desk before pointing at the table in front of him.

Zhou Weiqing walked forward to have a look and sure enough, the blueprint laid on the table was different from the previous one that he saw. Although the original design was also almost perfect, there were some places where the details were unrefined. However, now the blueprint in front of him was much more refined and elaborate.

Usually, an ordinary person would be confused looking at such a complicated design, and they would barely be able to make out the lines on the blueprint. Yet, Zhou Weiqing was looking at it to the point that his eyes were shining with glee.

A solemn look could be seen on Duan Tianlang's face as he held on tightly to the bottle that contained the Elven Queen's blood. "Weiqing, everything's ready now. The only thing lacking is the final forging process. I have confidence in my experience but my cultivation base is not good enough. I'll need to have a cultivation base at the Heavenly Emperor Tier and above if I want to forge the last piece of the eleven-piece legendary armor set's Consolidated Equipment Scroll. For this reason, I can only instruct from the side and you'll need to complete the final step by yourself. This is a very long process and no interruption is allowed in between. You must be prepared!"

Zhou Weiqing looked at Duan Tianlang and nodded his head earnestly, "Junior Master, rest assured, I can control Time Reversal and can correct my mistakes in the past. Not only that, my cultivation base is elevated again after my trip to the Elf Tribe's land. I think it's most probably around the Maximum-Level of the Heavenly Emperor Tier now. I've faith that I won't disappoint you. However, Junior Master, you must promise me something. Once we've completed the final piece of the Ringless Ground Purging Set, you must take good care of your body and give me a chance to be filial to you, okay?"

Duan Tianlang smiled, "You silly boy. Do you think that I really want to die? Moreover, other than making the Consolidated Equipment Scroll, I still have another wish you know."

"Oh? What's that?" Zhou Weiqing looked at him in surprise. In his eyes, other than making Consolidated Equipment Scrolls, Duan Tianlang did not seem to have any other hobby.

Duan Tianlang continued, "Well, the other wish of mine is to see you continue creating miracles."

Wham —

Instantly, a warm feeling showered Zhou Weiqing's body. Heat crept up in his eyes as tears threatened to fall down on the ground, "J-Junior Master…"

"Alright, get a grip on yourself. We're going to start now. Hand over the process of making the Consolidating Ink to me, and calm yourself down first. Make sure you adjust your body to its best state, alright?"

"Okay," Zhou Weiqing replied respectfully and sat down cross-legged in front of Duan Tianlang's work desk before he entered the cultivation state.

Duan Tianlang walked to the other side and carefully took out a palm-sized earthen bowl. The bowl was fully transparent but was turquoise in color. This was the Imperial green glass-type emerald. It was also the purest high-grade emerald in the world. Not only did it represent the breath of life, it also had the highest prestige among all the gems. It was exactly material like this that could stabilize all of the other valuable ingredients to make the Consolidating Ink.

Duan Tianlang's eyes were filled with emotions as he gently stroke the bowl in his hand. This earthen bowl had a beautiful name. It was called "Aqua Tide". Ever since he had gotten his hands on this treasure, there were not many occasions that were worthy for him to use this bowl. After he had become a God Tier Master, he had only used it a total of five times. Out of the five times, it was used twice to craft the final piece of Long Shiya's Hiltless Heavenly Purging Set and the tenth piece of Zhou Weiqing's Ringless Ground Purging Set. The first five times he made Consolidating Ink with Aqua Tide brought him great success. The Consolidating Ink were of the highest quality and in turn, it helped in completing the crafting process of the scrolls.

In Duan Tianlang's opinion, even if the previous five successful completions were added up together, they would still be unable to compare to the current one. The process of making this Consolidating Ink now was the most important to him in his entire life.

All this while, Zhou Weiqing had always been very grateful towards Duan Tianlang. However, he did not know that Duan Tianlang was equally grateful for his existence, too. Duan Tianlang was a God Tier Master who had no equal in his time. He was the only God Tier Master who was a successor of the Strength Legacy. Even if he had a close relationship with Long Shiya, it was not to the point that he would help take care of Zhou Weiqing to such a degree. All these years, the reason he spared no pains in doing everything for him was because of Zhou Weiqing himself.

First of all, Zhou Weiqing, who possessed the Strength Legacy, had the highest likelihood to become a God Tier Master. The situation had proved to be true since he had successfully become a true God Tier Master himself. At the same time, he even managed to help complete a few of Duan Tianlang's most important, unfulfilled wishes in his entire life.

Just the existence of the Ringless Ground Purging Set itself was already enough to rekindle Duan Tianlang's passion and faith. The shocking and touching moments that he felt at that moment was so earth-shattering that it still remained strong in his heart till now.

One could easily imagine how much it meant to the God Tier Master, who was peerless in his time, that he was able to help Zhou Weiqing create the Ringless Ground Purging Set, and he could see with his own eyes this set existing together at the same time with the Hiltless Heavenly Purging Set.

If Zhou Weiqing had not shown up at all, Duan Tianlang might have already died working his entire heart out. It was Zhou Weiqing who gave him this second life. With the infusion of the Saint Energy, he finally had the ability to thrive at a higher level as a God Tier Master. He was personally involved in designing and making the legendary armor set that had a total of eleven pieces.

In fact, Duan Tianlang only had a cultivation base at the Heavenly King Tier. Moreover, regardless of the circumstances, his Heavenly King-tier cultivation base could no longer rise to the Heavenly Emperor Tier. In reality, there had never been any record of a Heavenly King-tier Jewel Master who was able to create the eleventh piece of a legendary armor set. That was why this would absolutely be a miracle in this world. Duan Tianlang had no more regrets in his entire since he was able to achieve this miracle, complete the design blueprint and even personally forge this legendary armor set's Consolidated Equipment Scroll.

He turned his head to look at Zhou Weiqing who was sitting by the side while he adjusted his state of mind. A determined look could be seen in his eyes. He only had one chance. There was only room for success, not failure!

Duan Tianlang shut his eyes and quickly entered a meditative state as he carefully lifted the Aqua Tide before him with his two hands. This was also one of the advantages that Saint Energy had brought him. He did not have to do much adjustment to enter his best state of mind in a short amount of time. Of course, this was not the case for his cultivation base state but his state of mind.

Without warning, Duan Tianlang opened up his eyes wide and instantly, two determined lights gleamed in his eyes. He rubbed his hands together. His left hand was pushed inward while his right hand was pushed outward. With the rich silverish Spatial Heavenly Energy holding up the Aqua Tide in the air, a 'swoosh' could be heard as the Aqua Tide suddenly started spinning violently in mid-air. A turquoise light immediately spread out from the spinning bowl.

Chapter 783

Duan Tianlang's entire person seemed to have entered a special state. An intense silver light continued coming out of his body as it infused the Aqua Tide. The Heavenly Energy ripples in the room also intensified.

Right this moment, Zhou Weiqing slowly opened his eyes when he sensed the changes in the surroundings. He did not disturb Duan Tianlang. Instead, he quietly rose up as he watched soundlessly from a distance. Although Duan Tianlang's cultivation base was inferior to his, their abilities were on par when it came to the competency of being a Consolidated Equipment Master. It was all thanks to his innate talent that he became a God Tier Master. That was why he did not need to exert much effort. For this reason, he only needed to learn from Duan Tianlang's technique and experience.

The Aqua Tide continued to spin swiftly in front of Duan Tianlang. Gradually, the turquoise light that was emitting out of it slowly consolidated and merged with the Spatial Heavenly Energy as it emitted a greenish silver light.

What was even more bizarre were the changes to the Aqua Tide's rim. The same greenish silver light actually took the shape of a funnel instead as the tip of the funnel extended all the way into the Aqua Tide bowl. A small, nail-sized black hole could be seen at the tip of the funnel.

Soon after, Duan Tianlang began to make a move. Countless shades of lights appeared in his hands instantly. Every ray of light was as solid as matter. Although they materialized quickly, they appeared to be very stable.

Streams of lights continued to infuse the greenish silver whirlpool in the Aqua Tide. Strange enough, although many of the valuable materials were pretty large, they quickly vanished without a trace the moment they entered the whirlpool.

Duan Tianlang's speed was indeed too fast. It was not only fast, it was also rather rhythmic. With speed like this, if one were to stand slightly further away, all one would be able to see would be a colorful stream of lights that continued to flow out of his hands. It looked like some kind of illusion as it poured into the Aqua Tide.

As more and more lights entered the Aqua Tide, the turquoise color of the beautiful earthen bowl began to turn richer as time passed by. The rotation speed continued to increase as well as it constantly engulfed the valuable ingredients.

Zhou Weiqing's Divine Thought had already spread to outside the room. It formed a natural barrier over it. Not only could it prevent outsiders from snooping around, it could also prevent the Heavenly Energy ripples and the valuable ingredients' aura from escaping outside when Duan Tianlang was in the process of making the ink.

Apparently, this was something that was necessary. Otherwise, it would easily attract Heavenly Beasts' attention from a huge perimeter. Although Zhou Weiqing was not afraid of Heavenly Beasts casting their covetous eyes on them, he would prefer that they did not disrupt his Junior Master's ink-making process.

Even though Zhou Weiqing was already at the Upper Levels of the Heavenly Emperor Tier and is approaching the Maximum Level soon, the look of astonishment in his eyes grew stronger as time passed.

This was because he could clearly see that the energy ripples rising from the Aqua Tide was growing stronger as time passed. At the same time, it felt horribly dreadful. He was certain that if the Aqua Tide were to be detonated, the entire Heavenly Bow City would be completely wiped out from the world. Heck, was that the best case scenario? One could easily imagine how much energy was being processed within the Aqua Tide.

Originally, when Duan Tianlang sent Zhou Weiqing on the mission to search for the Elven Queen's blood, Zhou Weiqing thought that the main ingredient for the Consolidating Ink would be the Elven Queen's blood. Although all the other ingredients were valuable as well, they were inferior compared to the blood. However, looking at the situation now, it seemed like he was wrong after all. His Junior Master had only just started the process of making the Consolidating Ink and yet, the Aqua Tide earthen bowl was already exuding such hair-raising energy ripples. Even he, who was already at the Maximum Level of the Heavenly Emperor Tier, was taken aback by such a scene. One could easily imagine how ghastly the amount of energy contained in these valuable ingredients. Only the most priceless treasures would be able to release such threatening energy ripples!

Zhou Weiqing was a pretty good judge of things. Although he did not recognize most of the valuable ingredients that Duan Tianlang was using, just from the few that he recognized, it was already more than enough for him to confirm his initial thoughts. For example, he saw a fist-sized crystal clear Nucleus Core that gave off an intense fiery red light. When this Nucleus Core was tossed into the bowl, the fiery red light that it gave off completely solidified. It made it look like it was covered in a layer of solid light. Zhou Weiqing suspected that the Nucleus Core was most probably taken from a Heavenly God-tier Heavenly Beast.

In fact, if he absorbed this Nucleus Core, it would at the very least stabilize his cultivation base at the Maximum Level of the Heavenly Emperor Tier. Currently, Duan Tianlang was merely using it to make the Consolidating Ink.

At this moment, a realization suddenly dawned on Zhou Weiqing. Just the eleventh piece of the legendary armor suit would most likely surpass the value of all the previous ten pieces together. Most of the valuable ingredients that his Junior Master used was most likely not bought by the Heaven's Expanse Palace. Instead, they were probably treasures that originally belonged to the Strength Legacy that had been put away for many years.

Zhou Weiqing instinctively shifted his glance towards Duan Tianlang who had a resolute and determined look in his eyes as he was fixated on the Aqua Tide. His entire being gave off an invisible Qi field like a large mountain standing guard up high.

Zhou Weiqing pursed his lips slightly. His eyes instantly turned darker. Just as his eyes darkened, his pupils constricted into tiny pinpoints. He had already made up his mind that he would give his all no matter how difficult the situation turned out. He would work till his last breath just to finish making the Consolidated Equipment Scroll. It was only in this way that he would be worthy of Duan Tianlang's sacrifice. Not only that, it could also be considered as him fulfilling his Junior Master's greatest wish of his life.

The turquoise light that was emitting out of the Aqua Tide made it look like a small, dazzling turquoise sun. An extremely strong aroma was also coming out of it. This aroma was filled with the breath of life and the energy ripples of all the attributes that Zhou Weiqing knew of. Apart from that, each and every one of the energy attribute was the purest as well.

Zhou Weiqing would be able to easily purify a single attribute. However, it was an impossible task to purify all of the attributes at the same time. He could blend all of the attributes together with his Saint Energy but he could not isolate all of the attributes to purify them separately.

Even Zhou Weiqing could not do this, let alone Duan Tianlang. However, it was currently made possible by the Aqua Tide. It was a treasure that was known as an artifact among Consolidated Equipment Masters. This was also the reason why Duan Tianlang had faith that they would be successful in making the Consolidating Ink as long as all there were enough materials and ingredients. Even the three God Tier Masters in the Heaven's Expanse Palace's Heavenly Jewel Island did not possess such a treasure. It would take the three of them working together just to finish making Consolidating Ink of this level. Moreover, it did not mean that they would be able to succeed with just one attempt.

If it was not for Zhou Weiqing's Divine Thought's protection, other Heavenly Jewel Masters who had a higher cultivation base would definitely feel the strong energy ripple from several dozen miles away. The dense aura that was released by the valuable ingredients was more than enough to induce envy.

Time continued to pass. Duan Tianlang's eyes turned serious as time went by. When the Aqua Tide's rotation reached its maximum speed, the speed suddenly dropped. It was as if it had turned heavier. Tiny black cracks began to appear around the air by the Aqua Tide — it was a sign that space around it was being torn apart.

It seemed like the energy inside the Aqua Tide was so massive that it was starting to become too much for the Aqua Tide to contain. Beads of sweat began to form and flow down from Duan Tianlang's forehead. His clothes were fully drenched from the front to the back. However, the Spatial attribute Heavenly Energy that erupted from his body kept going strong. It was continuously rising up. However, his hand movements had started to slow down.

This was the first time in Duan Tianlang's life that he was performing such a completion process for the Consolidating Ink. Although he had many simulated practices and thought about all possible situations that may arise, he still suffered from a tremendous pressure the instant he started making the ink.

"I can't fail! I can't fail no matter what! I only have one batch of materials and if I fail, God knows how long it'll take before I can start making this Consolidating Ink again!" Duan Tianlang thought to himself. He knew very clearly that he only had one shot at this. Although the Saint Energy that Zhou Weiqing infused into his body was enough to save his life, his energy was not limitless. It was almost depleted long ago from all the Consolidated Equipment Scroll making from many years ago.If he failed this time, he would not have the courage to attempt it again for the second time. Even though he could still make the scroll by guiding Zhou Weiqing, it was still not a product made with his own hands.

With an interval every few minutes, Duan Tianlang threw another valuable ingredient into the Aqua Tide. Every interval would be longer than the previous one, and after every new item was tossed into it, the Aqua Tide would appear heavier. It seemed like it was sinking from its position in mid-air. Duan Tianlang broke into a sweat when he saw that.

At this time, Zhou Weiqing did not dare to intervene at all. He did not even dare to infuse any Saint Energy into Duan Tianlang's body. Presently, Duan Tianlang was like a taut bowstring that would snap with just the slightest interruption, even if the interruption was good and meant to help him.

Finally, Duan Tianlang reached both of his hands out and instantly, two golden colored fruits fell into the Aqua Tide.

With a "whoosh", the Aqua Tide's swirling came to a halt all of a sudden. Without warning, it crashed directly to the ground.

Duan Tianlang shouted, "Get up!" His right foot stomped mercilessly on the ground. His alarming Heavenly Energy erupted all of a sudden, and a silverish white light began to pour into the Aqua Tide without reserve. It stopped the fall of the Aqua Tide when it was just a foot away from hitting the ground.

However, at this time, on top of the Aqua Tide that was no longer swirling, a very unstable energy ripple blasted out without warning. Tiny cracks began to appear on the turquoise lights as if it was about to explode into pieces. A circle of black light could also be seen around the Aqua Tide. It seemed like it was about to slash open the space around it and soar away from this realm.

Chapter 794

A spurt of blood sprayed out of Duan Tianlang's mouth on the Aqua Tide. Zhou Weiqing, who was watching by the side, instantly clenched his fists as he resisted the urge to rush forward and stop his Junior Master.

The Aqua Tide that was sprayed with Duan Tianlang's blood immediately flared with turquoise light as it gradually started to swirl again. However, it looked like it was about to break at any moment with the cracks that appeared as it continued to pick up speed.

However, at this moment, Zhou Weiqing could see a smile breaking out on Duan Tianlang's face. That was right, a smile. A faint smile. It looked like he was satisfied with the current outcome.

With trembling hands, Duan Tianlang took out a small turquoise bottle and opened its lid. Three drops of brightly colored blood that was filled with rich vitality flew out all at once as it fell into the Aqua Tide. That was the Elven Queen's Blood that Zhou Weiqing had brought back with him.

With the infusion of the Elven Queen's blood, the cracks that were multiplying on the Aqua Tide immediately halted. In the next instant, the entire room turned completely turquoise in color. As if it had been injected with hot boiling oil, the pure energy from all kinds of attributes that were originally fluctuating inside the Aqua Tide suddenly hissed loudly before a fierce turquoise light burst up into the sky like a gigantic dragon. It smashed the ceiling as it broke out of the house.

Almost instantaneously, Zhou Weiqing removed his Divine Thought. He could clearly sense that this ray of light was not something his Divine Thought could block. In the event of a collision, his Divine Thought might be smashed apart. One could easily imagine how formidable the power of this Consolidating Ink was.

"Weiqing, stop it! It's trying to get away!" Duan Tianlang shouted out at the top of his voice. At the same time, his Aqua Tide lost all luster as it slammed down to the ground with a deafening thud.

Zhou Weiqing reacted very quickly. The moment he heard his Junior Master's words, he instantly rushed out from the house without wasting even a second.

When the turquoise light soared up to the sky, Zhou Weiqing could feel a sudden burst of powerful breath that was comparable to one from an individual on the Heavenly God Tier that erupted from the turquoise light. The moment the turquoise light soared up to the sky, it began to absorb all sorts of attributes' energy ripples from the air in a frenzy. It was almost like a huge devouring vortex that was even more devastating than Zhou Weiqing's Demon Devour. None of the energy attributes in the air seemed to have any resistance towards it at all.

In just a flash, Zhou Weiqing was already outside of the house. He was completely taken aback when he saw that ray of turquoise light. That light had completely evolved into a gigantic dragon that was 100 meters long, and it was climbing up the sky as it bared its fangs fiercely.

However, it was completely different from the gigantic dragon that Zhou Weiqing had previously seen. This turquoise-colored dragon was completely crystal clear like it was carved out of a jade sculpture. Its body constantly ejected circles of turquoise lights that were absorbing various energy attributes to strengthen its body. It had nine claws under its abdomen and a pair of horns on its head. Every time it moved, a series of cracks could be seen appearing in the surrounding space. It seemed like this dragon was even more fearsome than the Dreadfiend Sea Naga that Zhou Weiqing had previously faced.

With a cold snort, Zhou Weiqing lifted up his right hand and a bright stream of galaxy-like rays exploded out of his body. At that moment, the entire sky in the Heavenly Bow City turned dark and scattered stars instantly appeared out of thin air. Within seconds, all of the energy attributes were separated and isolated.

What cultivation base was he at now? The Maximum Level of the Heavenly Emperor Tier. Moreover, he even shared a life with the Elven Queen. His power was extremely strong. He would lose to the Mountain Lord of Heavenly Snow Mountain. His Saint Energy had already been purified to a nearly white gold level. Although it was still not on par with the Creation Saint Energy, it was constantly getting closer to it. One could say that this Saint Energy that he possessed was the purest Saint Energy that could be found in this world. It was even more powerful than the Elven Queen's Life Saint Energy. This was also one of the main reasons why even the Elven Queen was a little afraid of Zhou Weiqing and was willing to let her Elf Tribe remain in seclusion.

The sky suddenly darkened as each and every one of the energy attributes suddenly vanished without a trace. The Jade Dragon appeared to be stunned for a moment before it immediately became panic-stricken. At once, its huge body wobbled in the air. Instantly, a silverish light flashed across. A layer of rich silverish light erupted from its body and enveloped its entire body. In an instant, an enormous black hole appeared out of thin air right before it.

"Trying to escape?" Without a doubt, this Jade Dragon was feeling threatened, and it was now trying to tear space apart to escape using the Spatial Attribute; part of the attributes that he possessed.

Naturally, Zhou Weiqing would not let it off so easily. With his current cultivation base, he already understood how this Jade Dragon suddenly materialized after a short moment of being surprised.

The valuable treasures became its body and the Elven Queen's blood became its life. One could say that this dragon was an ominous presence that was a combination of all the Atmospheric Energy. If it was allowed to absorb the Atmospheric Energy as freely as it liked, it would most likely form a brain of its own within a certain period of time. At that time, no one would be able to subdue it any longer. How dire would it be having a Heavenly God-tier powerhouse that possessed all the attributes in this world? It could even cultivate Saint Energy on its own and leave this world as it pleased.

Not all Consolidating Inks for the eleventh piece of a legendary armor set would have such a problem. However, almost all of the Consolidating Ink of the eleventh piece of legendary armor sets would gain a spirit due to the fusion of countless valuable treasures.

Although Duan Tianlang knew about the Consolidating Ink crafting method, he had zero experience in this. Even the Strength Legacy's founders did not have any ancient books or records that passed on this knowledge. If it was the Heaven's Expanse Palace's Heavenly Jewel Island that was making a Consolidating Ink of this level, they would definitely lay down a large array of guards as a lookout. It was apparent that Duan Tianlang did not know that such a situation would occur. If it was not for Zhou Weiqing's powerful cultivation base, all of the efforts that he had exerted earlier would be in vain.

At this moment, Zhou Weiqing was feeling intensely excited instead of feeling angry. Just the Consolidating Ink itself was already this formidable. How would the Consolidated Equipment Scroll be like later? This was not something that could be easily speculated just by using imagination alone. Anyway, what was more urgent now was to subdue this Jade Dragon and start making the Consolidated Equipment Scroll.

Zhou Weiqing took a step forward in the air. Before the Jade Dragon could enter the black hole, he quickly appeared before it and lifted his right hand. At once, the black hole behind the dragon was instantly wiped off by a layer of golden light that exuded from his palm. It was as if it did not appear at all. Forming a fist with his left palm, he smashed it directly on the Jade Dragon's head.

Only Zhou Weiqing had the guts to do something like that. If it was some other Heavenly Emperor-tier powerhouse, the first thing that he would worry about was whether he would be sucked in by the black hole or not. However, Zhou Weiqing was not afraid of this at all. After all, he was able to use Spatial Travel. Moreover, he had also mastered the Galaxia Saint Energy. Due to this reason, the black hole was not a problem at all for him.

With a muffled thud, the Jade Dragon was sent flying by Zhou Weiqing's fist. Its gigantic body tumbled a few times in the sky. After all, it only had its life and spirit given to him moments ago, and it did not know how to utilize it in a battle yet. Although it had a huge body full of energy, it could only use it to perform some simple things based on his instinct.

Even a real Heavenly God-tier powerhouse might not necessarily be able to win against Zhou Weiqing, let alone this faux Heavenly God.

Zhou Weiqing pointed his right hand towards the sky as his eyes suddenly lit up. All of the stars in the sky gleamed in a dazzle and it was as bright as his eyes. Hundred of stars shone down and formed a huge cage that was made out of hundreds of light beams. It trapped the Jade Dragon within it. No matter how it struggled to try to break open the cage, it still could not break free.

Zhou Weiqing was hovering empty-handed in mid-air and his eyes were shining brightly. Like a God that descended from Heaven, his body was surrounded by the galaxy belt that turned into a circle of light around him. The dazzling light was glowing with an incomparably powerful aura. The Astral Divine Territory — this was part of the powerful ability that Zhou Weiqing managed to master. Although he was still at the Heavenly Emperor Tier, he had already reached and mastered the Divine Territory. Moreover, his Divine Territory could be considered superior to all the Divine Territories in this world. This was because he had his Saint Energy as a foundation, the Saint Energy that could be used to create the world.

By this time, the people of Heavenly Bow City had already discovered the changes in the air. When they saw Zhou Weiqing and the imprisoned Jade Dragon in the sky, the commoners were completely shaken to their core. With a series of thuds were heard, each and every one of them kneeled down on the ground as they paid homage to the both of them.

It was also at this time that a crisp whistle resonated in the Heavenly Bow City. Even within Zhou Weiqing's Astral Divine Territory, the loud and crisp whistle could ignite a violent energy ripple. Six-colored lights shot up into the sky at once. To his surprise, the powerful beams literally ripped apart a small area of Zhou Weiqing's Astral Divine Territory, as it shot all the way up to the atmosphere. Soon after, a figure appeared out of nowhere and walked out of the six-colored lights.

"Ha ha ha ha! You bastard! I finally made a breakthrough after working hard for so long!"

Looking at that round figure, was that not Six Ultimate Heavenly Emperor Long Shiya?

All this while, the Six Ultimate Heavenly Emperor had been using the Saint Energy that Zhou Weiqing had transfused into his body to seek a breakthrough. He had stagnated at the Maximum Level of the Heavenly Emperor Tier for too many years, just a stone throw away from his final breakthrough. Even though it was only a stone throw away, he could finally close the distance all thanks to Zhou Weiqing's Saint Energy.

Just a moment ago, he felt the Jade Dragon's Heavenly God-tier energy ripple. Coupled with the Saint Energy in his body that happened to coincide with Zhou Weiqing's Astral Divine Territory's aura, lady luck was finally on his side. His strength had also reached a fully baked state. Now that all of the conditions had been met, he was finally able to break through. Within seconds, he had already become a Heavenly God.

Long Shiya was not a person who hid his emotions. Moreover, breaking through to the Heavenly God Tier was a lifelong dream of his, just like how making the eleventh piece of the Ringless Ground Purging Set was the lifelong dream of Duan Tianlang. One could easily imagine the sense of joy that was bursting out of his heart right now. In the midst of his frenzied laughter, his gaze landed on the Jade Dragon that was imprisoned in mid-air.

"Congratulations on your remarkable feat, Teacher!"

Chapter 795

"Congratulations, teacher. It's a miraculous success."

Zhou Weiqing's expression was filled with surprise. He approached Long Shiya and bowed respectfully towards his teacher. Long Shiya's breakthrough at this point in time would be greatly beneficial towards his future plans. Above all else, his teacher was finally able to complete his life's ambition. How could Zhou Weiqing not feel happy for him?

Long Shiya looked at Zhou Weiqing. The fat meat on his face squished his small, smiling eyes so much that they could not be seen, "The wisest decision I've ever made in this lifetime is accepting you as my disciple, kid. Hahahaha, Heavenly God. I've finally become a Heavenly God. See if I don't fight my way up to Heavenly Snow Mountain and pull out all of the teeth of that old geezer, Xue Ao'tian. Wahaha."

Long Shiya certainly was not blowing his own trumpet. He had the Six Great Attributes, and his cultivation base had broken through to the Heavenly God Tier. He was certainly in no way inferior to Xue Ao'Tian who was at the Mid-Level of the Heavenly God Tier.

Just then, a quiet gasp could be heard, "Well, isn't old brother Long lucky! I'm still not good enough. The level of the last breakthrough is simply too difficult."

A black and grey light cast a shadow and the Demonic Emperor Wu Yunyue appeared next to Zhou Weiqing and Long Shiya. His cultivation base was second only to Long Shiya despite the fact that he had suffered an injury in the past. Even though his wounds were now healed, he could not utilize Zhou Weiqing's Saint Energy and smoothly break through to the Heavenly God Tier like what Long Shiya had done.

However, Long Shiya's breakthrough alone was enough for the Peerless Sect. Even the number one Saint Land, Heaven's Expanse Palace, did not have a Heavenly God-tier cultivator assuming personal command! Long Shiya's existence was enough to intimidate the other four Great Saint Lands and grant the Peerless Sect a leading position.

Long Shiya pointed at the Jade Dragon that still struggling in its attempt to escape and asked Zhou Weiqing, "What's that? Why does it have such a scary amount of energy? Is it a Heavenly God-tier Heavenly Beast that you brought back?"

Zhou Weiqing shook his head, "It's not a Heavenly Beast. Please help me uphold the constitution, teacher, and father-in-law. I'll explain everything to you when I've completed my tasks."

As he spoke, a silver light flashed in Zhou Weiqing's body, and he returned to the ground in the next moment. As he cradled the dying Duan Tianlang in his arms, he poured Saint Energy into his body to help him replenish his strength.

Although Duan Tianlang was substantially weakened, his mind was still excellent. He mumbled, "It's done. Weiqing, I did it. This is the eleventh Consolidating Ink. I dare guarantee that this will become a dragon-shaped Consolidating Ink, and it'll surpass the last piece of the Boundless Infinitum Set. A dragon, it's a dragon! Don't worry about me, you hurry up and start consolidating. It's in the void. Lure the dragon into the scroll."

Zhou Weiqing replied with uncertainty, "Junior Master, what should I do?"

Duan Tianlang closed his eyes. After regaining a bit of mental strength, he opened his eyes again as light radiated from his pupils, "Draw in Saint Energy, and consolidate it in the void. The sky is your scroll, the Jade Dragon is your Consolidating Ink, and the Saint Energy is your Consolidating Brush. Go. The eleventh legendary armor set has always used substances in different forms. As long as you succeed in consolidating it, draw it into your body at once. By doing so, you'll be able to utilize its power the moment you succeed in your cultivation. Understood?"

Zhou Weiqing carefully memorized Duan Tianlang's simple instructions. His mouth repeatedly muttered, "Draw in Saint Energy, and consolidate it in the void." Suddenly, his eyes shone as his heart was filled with realization. He transfused a bit of pure Saint Energy into Duan Tianlang's body so that he would slowly recover. In the next moment, Zhou Weiqing grabbed the blueprint and appeared in the middle of the sky again.

At this moment, Long Shiya and Wu Yunyue were not the only two people in the sky. Every cultivator at the Heavenly King Tier or above from the Peerless Sect was already in mid-air, including the six Heavenly Kings who originated from the Heavenly Demon Sect and Zhou Weiqing's female companions.

Only Long Shiya and Wu Yunyue were unaware of what Zhou Weiqing and Duan Tianlang were up to. At this moment, without needing Zhou Weiqing's instructions, and under the leadership of Shangguan Xue'er and Tian'er, the Heavenly King-tier cultivators quickly scattered and formed a large circle surrounding the outer area in the far off distance, the Consolidated Equipment was placed neatly, in a calm and unruffled manner despite the raging chaos outside to protect Zhou Weiqing.

Initially, the Shangguan triplets wanted to return to the Heaven's Expanse Palace in the Heavenly Jewel Island to complete the next piece of their Consolidated Equipment. However, they stayed for the sake of Zhou Weiqing's consolidation. After all, Long Shiya and Wu Yunyue were previously in closed-door cultivation, and they didn't know how long it would take for Zhou Weiqing to finish consolidating and safety was of utmost importance. What if the people of Blood Red Hell took advantage of this and came here. What would they do then?

Zhou Weiqing was once again in mid-air. He did not consolidate immediately when he faced the Jade Dragon. A light flickered in his eyes as the Galaxia light in his body amplified. A two meter wide, enormous light beam shot out from his body towards the sky. It was the Galaxia Feedback. However, he was using his own Saint Energy not for cultivation purposes but for binding instead.

In a few short seconds, a bright gold light beam ten times bigger than Zhou Weiqing's light beam poured down from the sky. It shot ferociously at the Jade Dragon's body.

Terrifying fluctuations from the Saint Energy exploded in a very small area in the sky before turning into a large golden ball of light. All the force was focused on the Jade Dragon's body.

The initially healthy and active Jade Dragon instantly turned docile after the attack. It was firmly bound and was unable to move so it became dispirited and listless as golden starlight surrounded it.

Wu Yunyue and Long Shiya gasped when they saw this.

Among everyone present, the two of them were the most powerful, and their senses were the most vivid. Even the newly minted Heavenly God-tier Long Shiya could not help but look shocked upon sensing the might of the attack from the sky. Even though he would not be restricted by Zhou Weiqing's Divine Territory and had also received his own Divine Territory after becoming a Heavenly God, he was shocked at the might of the Astral Divine Territory and Zhou Weiqing's upgrading speed.

Long Shiya had thought that he could pass on his techniques and experience in breaking through the bottleneck in Heavenly Emperor Tier to the Heavenly God Tier to Zhou Weiqing. However, it seemed that currently there was no need for that. His precious disciple's cultivation base was at the Maximum Level of the Heavenly Emperor Tier, and he also had Saint Energy. At this moment, Zhou Weiqing was probably about to surpass him in overall power. As for how he would reach the Heavenly God Tier, this was not something that he needed to worry about.

After Zhou Weiqing had perfectly bound the Jade Dragon, he quieted down. He closed his eyes as his hand clutched the Consolidated Equipment Scroll blueprint that Duan Tianlang completed with his blood, sweat, and tears.

The light of Saint Energy disappeared, leaving behind only little bits of starlight and the Astral Divine Discipline. Only cultivators at the Heavenly God Tier and above could clearly sense an immensely powerful Divine Thought that filled them with fear. It surrounded Zhou Weiqing's body as it fluctuated continuously. The power of this Divine Thought nearly surpassed the newly-minted Heavenly God-tier, Six Ultimate Heavenly God, Long Shiya.

The blueprint gently flew out of Zhou Weiqing's hand and spread out before Zhou Weiqing's face. Zhou Weiqing used Divine Thought to roll it up so that outsiders would not be able to read its content. All they would be able to see was a blurry piece of paper.

Zhou Weiqing's body began to slowly change in a bizarre manner. Little bits of starlight began to appear. It was devoid of the dazzling light from the Galaxia Saint Energy. It was just pure and simple starlight. The starlight slowly gathered behind Zhou Weiqing as it gradually became an imaginary shadow that was completely made out of starlight.

At this time, the shadow was no longer the Demon God. Instead, it was Zhou Weiqing.

When the shadow first appeared, it was not that big. It was only about the same size as Zhou Weiqing. However, the shadow slowly grew larger and larger following the continuous condensation of starlight. The strangest thing was this shadow did not display any energy fluctuations. Instead, it only gave off a gold glitter.

It was the first time that everyone present witnessed this bizarre transformation, especially the gradual shape-shifting process.

Only Long Shiya alone was able to sense the abnormality in the shadow. Zhou Weiqing was his disciple. That year, he had told Zhou Weiqing that on the day he was able to use his own shadow to form a Heavenly Skill Projection, he would have truly learned the Six Ultimate Heavenly Path Formation.

At this moment, Zhou Weiqing's condensed shadow was not a simple Heavenly Skill Projection. The shadow looked unreal at first glance. However, upon closer inspection, it seemed to be corporeal. Every bit of starlight used in its condensation was Saint Energy that was compressed to a high degree. The reason why no energy fluctuations were released was that all of the Saint Energy that were reserved and compressed was too pure. There was no reason for any leakage. The only way the power of this shadow could be described was that it was terrifying. It was even more terrifying than the Demon God that Zhou Weiqing had once summoned.

There was a possibility that the power of the Demon God was more formidable. However, this was a projection completely condensed by Zhou Weiqing's own Saint Energy, and it had the ability to hold its own in a fight.

Terrifying energy fluctuations circulated in the air. At this moment, Zhou Weiqing's cultivation base had an overall increase, and the dense Saint Energy fluctuations instantly died down. At a glance, the man floating in mid-air looked like a normal person.

The shadow behind Zhou Weiqing kept growing until it was five meters tall before it stopped. However, it still remained behind Zhou Weiqing as starlight continued pouring in, making it grow clearer and clearer in sight. In the end, it was essentially a larger version of Zhou Weiqing. Even the clothes were exactly alike. If it was not for the difference in size, one would not be able to differentiate between the actual person and the body of energy.

Shangguan Fei'er's mouth twitched at the sight of this, "This bastard. Did he clone himself a twin?"

However, her words came to a sudden halt in the next moment. Zhou Weiqing's physical body did not move but the five-meter tall shadow behind him took one step forward and immediately swallowed Zhou Weiqing whole. The original body and the body of energy had merged into one.

Chapter 796

The most shocking thing was what happened immediately after. The five meter tall Zhou Weiqing suddenly opened his eyes. When he opened his eyes, his entire being seemed to have come to life. He no longer looked like a body of energy but instead, was an enlarged version of Zhou Weiqing. It was as if his own body had gone through puberty once again. Even his gaze was similar to Zhou Weiqing's. There was no difference at all.

All of the witnesses present were cultivators throughout an entire generation. However, at this moment, they were all completely stupefied from Zhou Weiqing's actions. They were even a little numb. They simply could not figure out how Zhou Weiqing had done it. However, they vaguely sensed that everything Zhou Weiqing had done was to amplify himself so that he could become more powerful.

The Six Ultimate Heavenly God, Long Shiya clearly noticed that after Zhou Weiqing had grown to five meters tall and was now one with the Astral Divine Territory in the sky. The most fearsome thing was that the aura he emitted could no longer be described as one from a cultivator at the Heavenly Emperor-tier but instead, one that was from someone on the Heavenly God-tier.

It was similar to what had happened long ago when Zhou Weiqing used the Demonic Change to upgrade himself except now he was using the Astral Divine Territory to temporarily boost his cultivation base to the Heavenly God Tier.

During this kind of transformation, one had to manifest the Astral Divine Territory. The golden light that bound the Jade Dragon grew significantly stronger and gave off a white-gold luster. Zhou Weiqing's five-meter tall body had also transformed from a lighter shade of gold to a whitish-golden color. Obviously, this white-gold color is the color of the Saint Energy that he would receive once he reached the Heavenly God Tier.

When Zhou Weiqing took a deep breath, the blueprint before him vanished as it rolled up and entered his body. At this moment, Zhou Weiqing went all out with his Divine Thought and had branded all of the contents of the blueprint in his mind. This did not mean that he understood the secrets behind the blueprint. However, he had completely memorized it and would never forget them.

Based on his current age and his understanding of Consolidated Equipment Masters, it was impossible for him to completely comprehend it. At the very least, it was not possible for him to do it in such a short time. However, this would not affect his crafting process, especially under circumstances similar to this moment where he possessed such a high amount of power.

One had to at least have a Heavenly Emperor-tier cultivation base in order to craft the eleventh piece of the legendary armor set. The higher one's cultivation base was, the easier the crafting process would be. Moreover, Zhou Weiqing could also use Time Reversal as a safeguard to speak to the Consolidating Equipment Master about techniques that were against the heavenly stages.

Drawing Saint Energy Ink, and consolidating it in the void. The words shone in Zhou Weiqing's heart like a lighted pathway. At this moment, he had completely entered another kind of state.

If one were to say that Duan Tianlang was like a lofty mountain on the ground when he was crafting Consolidating Ink, then at this moment , Zhou Weiqing was like a cloud in the sky. Pure and imaginary yet unsurpassed, a cloud above everything else. The fearsome energy fluctuated in the air. Currently, no one was able to sense Zhou Weiqing's presence. If they closed their eyes, they would only be able to sense that there was no energy, attributes or elements present. There was only the Jade Dragon, who was like a third wheel, and Zhou Weiqing who looked like he was detached from his surroundings.

'Junior Master, don't you worry. I won't let you down.' Zhou Weiqing said in his heart. He slowly opened his mouth and took a deep breath. Instantly, countless starlight scattered throughout the sky. At that moment, the surroundings seemed to have transformed into a resplendent galaxia. It was as if the galaxia had fallen down to earth from high above. The density of the blurry radiance and the fluctuations of the Saint Energy had also reached its highest point. It caused all the present cultivators to turn pale from the shock as they flew backwards in panic. It did not matter that they were at the Heavenly King Tier or the Heavenly Emperor Tier.

Those who had received Zhou Weiqing's Saint Energy were a little better off. They did not feel it too much. However, those who had never been baptized by Zhou Weiqing's Saint Energy seemed to feel a force that repelled them and it made them feel like they wanted to run away and distance themselves immediately. Otherwise, it felt like they would be torn apart by this terrifying energy.

It was Saint Energy, and also a form of Galaxia Sedimentation, one of the most powerful abilities that Zhou Weiqing could currently use. It was one of the Astral Divine Territory's powerful abilities, and it was a display of Zhou Weiqing's comprehension of it.

Since the dawn of the existence of Heavenly Jewel Masters until this day, Zhou Weiqing was the first to comprehend the Astral Divine Territory. That was why he did not have anyone to learn from or refer to. Everything he knew now, he had to learn from his own mistakes when cultivating as he slowly experienced all the subtleties of Astral Divine Territory.

The higher his cultivation base was, the more he could sense the near infiniteness of Astral Divine Territory, especially the Creation Energy it contained. This pushed Zhou Weiqing in his cultivation even further. It was the best driving force behind his cultivation. At this moment, he was using this feeling to expand the Astral Divine Territory's Galaxia Sedimentation. From there, he raised the might of Astral Divine Territory and his Saint Energy to their highest potential.

A large vortex of stars came spiraling from below. It was obviously impossible for this to be an actual nebula. It was completely condensed through Saint Energy, drawn by Zhou Weiqing's powers. Even so, this horrifying nebula began spiraling the minute it arrived. The density of Saint Energy filled Heavenly Bow City with a kind of incomparably suffocating Saint Energy aura.

When a Heavenly Jewel Master was faced with such a terrifying amount of Saint Energy, all they could do was to stop resisting, bow out sincerely and acknowledge their allegiance to Saint Energy. Only then would he be able to wholly avoid elimination from the Saint Energy. The higher the Heavenly Jewel Master's cultivation base was, the more they would be affected. In contrast, the average citizen would receive quite a number of benefits from this dense Saint Energy.

Normal citizens would only feel the air grow denser as they breathed, and with every breath they took, their bodies would feel more relaxed. This feeling was difficult to describe. However, in just a short amount of time, they would feel mentally refreshed and their entire being would look as if they had become a few years younger.

The best benefit was reserved for the unborn children in the belly of every pregnant woman in Heavenly Bow City. This was because they had congenital Qi and therefore were able to accept Saint Energy, which was the ultimate source of energy in the simplest way possible. Saint Energy was absorbed by their mothers before it was slowly integrated into their bodies. One could say that all these unborn children, regardless of their original gifts and natural endowments, had the possibility of becoming Heavenly Jewel Masters in the future, thanks to having absorbed the dense Saint Energy. This is a conversation for another day in the future. Presently, even Zhou Weiqing himself had never thought that the consolidation in the void would also bring great benefits to Heavenly Bow Empire and establish a prosperous foundation in the future for Heavenly Bow Empire in the Boundless Mainland.

After the terrifying Saint Energy fluctuations appeared, the Jade Dragon cowered meekly. Although it possessed all attributes and had reached the Heavenly God Tier, it did not have a biological body because it was created from a large amount of energy. It only had basic instincts, that was why it could not possibly use a Divine Territory, like the Six Ultimate Heavenly God, to go up against Zhou Weiqing's Astral Divine Territory. With its instincts, the restrictions on in the Astral Divine Territory on it would be even greater. Coupled with Zhou Weiqing's tyrannical power, it would be unable to fight back and would be like a lamb waiting to be butchered.

Following the Galaxia Sedimentation that was placed in the middle of the violent circle of turbulent Nebula Saint Energy, it was further restrained from fighting back. In the face of Zhou Weiqing's Nebula Saint Energy, its enormous body slowly came together as it was slowly suppressed.

The jade green light grew stronger and stronger. However, its body grew smaller and smaller. Soon, it slowly shrank from over a hundred meters in length to merely eighty over meters in length.

The five-meter-tall body Zhou Weiqing remained suspended in air. At this moment, he was the core of the heavens and earth, the center point of this spiraling nebula. Everything in sight was within his grasp.

From embodying a body of energy to the Galaxia Sedimentation, Zhou Weiqing had worked for about half a day. If this was on a battlefield, no enemy would ever grant him the luxury of that much time to consolidate such amounts of energy. However, at this moment, Zhou Weiqing who had completed Galaxia Sedimentation could render any Heavenly God-tier powerhouse's Divine Territory useless when they were within the territory of Galaxia Sedimentation. Essentially, even if he faced a renowned Heavenly God-tier powerhouse, he may actually stand a chance at winning. This was his domain, his Divine Territory. If Long Shiya or the Mountain Lord of Heavenly Snow Mountain, Xue Ao'tian were to carry out an evaluation, they would not go overboard if they called this the number one Divine Territory in the world.

Zhou Weiqing slowly raised his right hand before he beckoned towards the Jade Dragon's direction. At the same time, the orbiting Nebula Saint Energy around him dispersed immediately, creating a space that was about a hundred meters in diameter in width.

The empty space was pitch black. It was pure, clean, shade of black. There was no trace of energy and it wasn't a spatial tear. It was so pure that one could not see any flaws.

A ray of jade green colored light was drawn out from the Jade Dragon's body after it began trembling. It instantly entered the pure black space that was nearly a hundred meters in width.

Zhou Weiqing's hand movements grew quicker, and the jade green light subsequently began moving in the middle of the black space. It left ray after ray of jade green cracks. The most bizarre thing of all was that the other side of the jade green light that was constantly connected to the Jade Dragon's body had stayed intact.

Lure the dragon into the scroll. That's right, lure the dragon into the scroll. It was just as Duan Tianlang had previously mentioned.

Zhou Weiqing's eyes took in all of the radiance. He did not stop waving his right hand. Draw the ink from the void and lure the dragon into the scroll. This was the way to craft the final legendary armor set. The bizarre sight made everyone watch with absolute focus. It was likely that such a marvel would be a rare sight even in a hundred years! However, it had now appeared in the sky of Heavenly Bow City. To the average citizens, this was a feat, and to the Heavenly Jewel Masters, this was a miracle.

Chapter 797

The civilians did not know what Zhou Weiqing was doing. Even the Heavenly Jewel Masters did not know either. Only the Heavenly King-tier cultivators were able to make a vague guess. However, the further they guessed, the more terrified they felt. What kind of Consolidated Equipment Scroll needed this type of crafting process? The Consolidating Ink was even more astounding. It actually turned into a dragon.

Zhou Weiqing's actions were very steady. The jade-green light expanded slowly in the air. It gradually started to take shape as it continued every stroke. It did not stop at all. However, a warped light would appear at certain times and it would cause the green color to retreat a little before it expanded once again.

Down below, Duan Tianlang had somewhat recovered his mental strength with the help of Zhou Weiqing's Saint Energy. He then flew up to the sky. Even though Galaxia Sedimentation prevented him from getting any closer, he could see everything despite being so far away.

'Rhythm, rhythm,' Duan Tianlang muttered in his heart. He was more anxious than anyone else. Even more so than Zhou Weiqing himself. The success of this would be an unprecedented success of crafting Consolidating Ink. The blood that Elven Queen had willingly given was so pure, it resulted in the perfect fusion of every material and treasure at the final moment. It even protected the Aqua Tide. At this moment, Zhou Weiqing's consolidation did not seem to be going too smoothly. Naturally he knew that every time there was a reversal, it was a sign that Zhou Weiqing was using Time Reversal to regain control. His control of it was already at the point of perfection.

Perhaps a truly experienced God Tier Master would have a chance in completing it all in a single stroke. However, it was clearly impossible for Zhou Weiqing. So, what he needed was not only the cultivation base of a Heavenly Emperor-tier, but the superior powers of the Heavenly God Tier. Only with enough support from his Saint Energy can he continue using Time Reversal over the course of the entire consolidation process, hold on to the rhythm, and craft the scroll. Based on the current situation, even though he may not have reached a stage where it was smooth sailing, at least there were no issues throughout the entire crafting process. Just this fact alone made Duan Tianlang sighed in relief. Everything seemed to be on the right track. All that remained was to wait; wait for Zhou Weiqing to complete this miracle. If he succeeded, Duan Tianlang dared to say that this disciple of his senior brother, would definitely be the number one cultivator in less than ten years' time.

However, at this moment, outside of Heavenly Bow City, a group of of dark shadows flew towards the city at top speed. Their numbers were nothing to shout out as there were only seven of them. However, every one of them had speed that was like fleeting lights and sweeping shadows. It was as if every time their bodies flashed, they moved more than a hundred meters forward. It was not any slower than the speed of flight. However, they were definitely capable of flying based on the energy and auras their bodies emitted.

These seven people were completely clad in black. Their bodies gave off an aura filled with darkness and destruction. If any normal person was to go near them, they would have fallen ill under the influence of this aura even if they were not attacked.

"Consolidating in the void. This is the method to craft the eleventh Consolidated Equipment Scroll. We must stop him. Does Duan Tianlang already have this ability?" The man in black at the forefront of the group exclaimed in a hoarse voice.

If one had a closer look, one would have noticed that the seven people clad in black had extremely slim and petite bodies and as they flashed across the sky, they did not even give off any energy ripples.

"No. 1, our task today is to kill that Zhou Weiqing. Not to create new problems and complicate the issue." Another person in black who was following him closely behind spoke in a malicious voice.

"What do you know. Eh, it isn't Duan Tianlang consolidating over there." The seven people in black had already reached the outskirts of the city. With a glance, they could tell that it was Zhou Weiqing who was in the midst of consolidating in the sky. When they saw the method that Zhou Weiqing had used to consolidate; which was to draw in the ink in the void, their black eyes that displayed a fiery blaze showed a hint of shock.

"There's no need to argue this time. It's Zhou Weiqing who's consolidating right now." No. 1 produced a blueprint from his chest and spread it out. The drawing on the blueprint was a portrait of Zhou Weiqing's likeness.

They could see the Heavenly King-tier and Heavenly Emperor-tier cultivators in the sky very clearly. Every person in black immediately masked their aura. However, they still felt the most suffocated by the Galaxia Sedimentation in the sky.

"No. 1, what's going on? How is this Zhou Weiqing releasing such a powerful aura? What Divine Territory is this? There's an error in our information. We won't stand a chance if he finishes consolidating when we attack."

"No. 2, you're too bold. Do you think drawing liquid in the void is that easy? If my guess is right, they would have to pay a great price simply to consolidate the ink. Zhou Weiqing will not possibly stop. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people surrounding him in defense. We have lived for more than a thousand years. If it was not for Fen Tian's use of Destruction Essence to revive us, we would be nothing but a pile of bones. You're still able to consider your personal losses in a time like this? Do you really think that we'll be able to stay alive if we don't finish this job? Without Fen Tian's Destruction Essence, we'll be dead as well. There will certainly be opportunities. Here. Based on the information, this young one is the most powerful one among them, the Six Ultimate Heavenly Emperor Long Shiya. If the seven of us combine our powers, there's a high chance that they'll retreat with a single attack."

The other five did not say a word. They stood stoically behind the two leaders. Waiting quietly.

No. 2 momentarily fell silent before he nodded, "Alright. However, No. 1, you must remember, there are precious few among those of us who have been brought back to life who have intelligence. The heavens gave us a chance at a new life, and I don't want to throw my life away here. If things become difficult, I would rather use them as scapegoats and escape."

"You think I want to die? We have no time to lose. Get ready. We only have one chance. Besides, we can't let Zhou Weiqing sense that his life in in danger." No. 1 replied in a sinister manner.

A moment after No. 1 and no. 2 had their discussion, the seven of them finally moved again.

The seven men quickly lined up in a row. The five who had previously kept quiet were placed in front, and No. 1 and no. 2 lined up behind. The seven of them released black light filaments one after the other. If one looked closely, one would be able to notice them. The light filaments mostly came from No. 1 and No. 2. The light filaments from the other five were only released on the lead of the first two men.

The black light filaments slowly condensed. The weirdest thing was these light filaments were similar to the Starlight Saint Energy that Zhou Weiqing had previously released. They did not display any energy fluctuations. That also meant that, unless one looked closely, one would not have been able to sense what the group clad in black was doing. Otherwise, they would not have fearlessly condensed their energy out in the open.

In order to ensure that the Astral Divine Territory's amplification was focused towards his own body, Zhou Weiqing confined the Divine Territory to the skies of Heavenly Bow City, and this was the outer edge of the Astral Divine Territory. The group in black might have been mildly affected by the Astral Divine Territory but in actual fact, they have yet to set foot into the Astral Divine Territory.

They would never know how Zhou Weiqing managed kill the previous group sent by the Blood Red Hell. However, Zhou Weiqing's possession of Saint Energy was no longer a secret. No. 1 and No. 2 knew very well that even though the energy they released could condense, concentrate and stabilize their auras, if it was to come in contact with the immensely different Saint Energy, Zhou Weiqing would notice them immediately. It was similar to how they were able to use their Destruction Energy to sense Zhou Weiqing's Creation Saint Energy. Hence, they chose this dark corner on the outskirts of the city walls.

The black light filaments slowly condensed. Like a Japanese creeper, it stuck closely onto the city walls as it slowly crawled up. It would occasionally grow thorns that were shaped like gnarly long legs, before transforming into shapes that were similar to arteries soon after. If anyone were to see this, they would immediately feel nauseous.

When these black vines finally got close to the top, they slowly began to gather together. Soon after, they merged into a giant mass and countless branches began stretching out from the pitch black mass. It formed a shape that looked a lot like a crab.

As the originators of this evil, the seven in black were completely covered in the black light filaments.

The large black crab, formed through the condensation of the black light filaments, was not very big. It was only about one meter or so. However, at a glance, one would realize that it looked a lot like a black cave that could swallow even the slightest trace of light.

Two turtles in front of the large black crab slowly eased out to explore the city walls. At this time, even though there were soldiers stationed at the city walls, their attentions were fixed on Zhou Weiqing who was drawing Saint Energy ink and consolidating it in the void. No one noticed the two unremarkable black lights.

The two turtles slowly merged when suddenly, a devastating ray of dark light tore through the sky and shot directly towards Zhou Weiqing.

Similar to before, this black light neither gave a warning nor showed an aura or energy fluctuation as it flew towards Zhou Weiqing.

However, just as the black light entered the city and into the Astral Divine Territory, countless people have already reacted. Tian'er, Shangguan Xue'er, Fei'er, Bing'er, including Six Ultimate Heavenly God Long Shiya and Demonic Emperor Wu Yunyue.

They were able to notice it immediately not only because their personal cultivation bases were at a high level, it was also because they all had Saint Energy.

Zhou Weiqing's Astral Divine Discipline would largely repel and affect those who did not have Saint Energy. However, the Astral Divine Territory would boost the effects for those who had Saint Energy as long as Zhou Weiqing was not purposely driving them out.

Shangguan Xue'er was the closest. In order to protect Zhou Weiqing, she had already strapped on the Boundless Infinitum Set. Once she sensed the powerful threat from the black ray, she flashed towards it and did what she had to do without hesitation. Her body and sword became one. In the air, a wave of white light akin to a plume of smoke descended from the heavens like a waterfall.

The Boundless Infinitum Set's reputation as the number one legendary armor set in the world was not unfounded. Although Shangguan Xue'er only had eight pieces on her currently, it was enough to provide her with the most powerful attack among all the wives. Moreover, her blade was dripping with Saint Energy. The Boundless Saint Nucleus Core was Shangguan Xue'er's achievement.

Chapter 798

The white and black lights were beaming extra brightly in the sky. The both of them collided hard, creating a deafening bang. The black light flickered and shrunk slightly; its dashing speed then stopped all of a sudden. However, Shangguan Xue'er let out a deep groan as she was flung away. A black layer of light lingered around her, consuming her Saint Energy. Despite having the Heavenly King-tier cultivation base, she could not remain flying in the air and fell straight onto the ground.

Shangguan Fei'er and Shangguan Bing'er arrived with the second batch. Although they saw the odd condition that their sister was in, they decided to attack by force without thinking much, with the sole intention of protecting Zhou Weiqing. The both of them were flung away with a loud bang. The black light only halted slightly and did not seem to be weakened at all. It was still aiming towards Zhou Weiqing.

Tian'er arrived with the third batch. Suited up in the God Vanquishing Heavenly Spirit Set, she floated in the air quietly. A golden light was shot from the God Spirit Staff in her hand. Besides Zhou Weiqing, her Saint Energy was the purest one among all. This time, she managed to defend the black light and counterweighted a small portion of it. However, the black light was too powerful as a whole. If it did not lock its target onto Zhou Weiqing, the Shangguan triplets might be facing a fatal threat for their attempt to defend against the black light.

Tian'er felt a destructive and raging energy dashing into her body, just when the black light paused. She had encountered enemies from the Blood Red Hell, who possessed the Destruction Attribute, when she was with Zhou Weiqing in the past. However, it was different this time as the Destruction Energy was much purer than the one from the people from the Blood Red Hell back then. The Destruction Energy was so terrifying that it seemed to be the source of the black hole. Besides, the intensity of its energy had far surpassed Tian'er's Heavenly King-tier abilities. As the terrifying Destruction Energy entered Tian'er's body, it was fighting with her Saint Energy.

One revolved around creation while the other revolved around destruction. As both were similarly pure, they were competing with one another through the quantity they possessed. Without a doubt, Tian'er was completely on the losing end. However, her Saint Energy was much purer than that of the Shangguan triplets after all, so she managed to defend the black light's attack by force. However, it was going backwards from where Zhou Weiqing was.

Demonic Emperor Wu Yunyue and Six Ultimate Heavenly God Long Shiya were the furthest away from where the black light was heading to. Everything happened too fast, it took less than a second from the time Shangguan Xue'er took action until the point when Tian'er defended against the black light. They reacted at almost the same time.

Long Shiya teleported above Tian'er at an instant. Just as he was about to defend Tian'er against the black light, a miracle occured out of nowhere. A layer of pure white light exploded from Tian'er's body. Long Shiya had never seen such a pure light before. As soon as the white light appeared, the black light that flung the Shangguan triplets away who in fact, were all on the Heavenly King-tier, and pushed Tian'er's defense away, so much so that was shrinking like melting snow. It resembled an octopus' tentacles that shrunk upon contact with fire. Moreover, the destructive energy that dashed into Tian'er's body had disappeared that very moment, leaving no trail behind.

Tian'er was shocked to find out that the Saint Energy in her body experienced a major growth; from the Low-Level Heavenly King-tier to the Upper-Level Heavenly King-tier. It felt like the Destruction Energy was absorbed by her and turned into Saint Energy. Such an upgrade was comparable with Zhou Weiqing's Star Reflection.

Who was Long Shiya exactly? Although he was shocked to see the events unfold before him, he made a decision immediately. He extended his right hand in the air, compressing it at an instant, while a rich six-colored light transformed into a stream of light and was sent down from above. It then lit the source of the black light directly. At the same time, he appeared mid-air outside the city wall.

The Demonic Emperor Wu Yunyue did not join the attack. Istead, he waited quietly next to Zhou Weiqing, as nobody could tell if any of the enemies would attack from elsewhere. Meanwhile, a couple of his Heavenly King-tier underlings were sent to get the Shangguan triplets. Wu Yunyue was definitely sure that he, as the representative of the Heavenly Demon Sect had curried favor with the person who could bring great future to the Peerless Sect, as he saw Zhou Weiqing consolidating in the air. Zhou Weiqing was the core of the Peerless Sect as well as his son-in-law. No matter what, he would protect this amazing bastard with all that he had.

What Tian'er and the rest did not see was that the seven men in black outside the city walls experienced a tremendous tremor in their bodies, just when the pure white light emitting from Tian'er's body was purifying the pure Destruction Energy even more. A faint black mist was released from their bodies during the intense tremor. No.1 and No.2 was petrified when it happened, as they could not understand how their Destruction Attribute was being absorbed. They decided right away, without any hesitation, to back off immediately. No.1 had said earlier that they only had one chance to attack. The seven of them were only at the Heavenly King-tier cultivation base; they were not even at a Heavenly Emperor-tier. All they depended on was the pure Destruction Attribute, their unified attacks, as well as their assassination techniques.

With Zhou Weiqing was consolidating in the air, it gave them the best opportunity to attack. However, they did not expect so many of them to possess the Saint Energy and would take action immediately, especially Tian'er's defensive technique, which made their attack fail completely. The seven men in black backed off at the same time, like seven black lightnings. As they retreated, they coincidentally avoided Long Shiya's six-colored light but unfortunately, the Six Ultimate Heavenly God had arrived above them.

No.1 and No.2 then looked at each other and decided to escape without hesitation. The five remaining men in black who followed suit, flew up into the sky at the same time and flew toward Long Shiya while the first two escaped as fast as they could. They might be able to escape if they encountered the old Six Ultimate Heavenly Emperor Long Shiya, however, the Six Ultimate Heavenly Emperor had now evolved into the Six Ultimate Heavenly God. This was the biggest mistake that these men in black had made on their speculation.

The anger in Long Shiya was burning! How could he not be raging, when he saw that they were attacking his best and most beloved disciple? He had always been protecting his family so he would definitely not let them go. Long Shiya's eyes were cold as he looked at the five men in black who were dashing towards him. He waved both his hands and his body then distorted in the air, before five Long Shiyas detached from his body. The five Long Shiyas who looked exactly like the real Long Shiya then made a beeline toward the five men in black.

At the same time, Long Shiya's head and the soles of his feet merged with the Dual Six Ultimate Heavenly Path Formation. The rich six-colored light swept across the heavens and earth, creating a contrast with Zhou Weiqing's Star Divine Territory. The Six Ultimate Heavenly God disappeared within the distorted six-colored light. As he appeared again, he blocked No.1 and No.2 while the other five men in black who were far away from their black light transformed into fireworks and disappeared.

When No.1 and No.2 were covered in the Six Ultimate Divine Territory, they felt their bodies tightening. The Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Light and Darkness Attributes became a restrictive energy to them. They could not defend themselves at all when faced with a Heavenly God-tier powerhouse when they were only at a mere Heavenly King-tier, despite possessing pure Destruction Energy. On top of that, being a unique being aside, the Six Ultimate Heavenly God Long Shiya had attributes aside from Saint Energy. The men in black stood no chance in the Six Ultimate Divine Territory.

Desperation was burning in No.1 and No.2's eyes. However, there was nothing that they could do now. Long Shiya had just learnt the Six Ultimate Divine Territory with Sixfold Chain as one of the major abilities. Long Shiya was the ruler in the Six Ultimate Divine Territory, and the chain with six attributes were unbreakable without any Divine Territory abilities.

A terrifying wave of energy was circulating in the air as Long Shiya stood before No.1 and No.2. He then said coldly, "I see that you are all from the Blood Red Hell. You actually had the guts to attack my disciple."

Their movements, including their Divine Thought were completely suppressed but they could still speak. Knowing that they had nowhere to run, No.1 said coldly, "No matter what you do, you're only killing yourself. Long Shiya junior, stop pretending to be a senior in front of me. You weren't born yet when I was ruling the mainland three hundred years ago."

'Hmm?' Long Shiya was stunned. Three hundred years ago? Although a Heavenly Jewel Master could lengthen their lifespan when their ability had reached certain point, he had never heard of anyone who could live for three hundred years. As he moved his finger by instinct, two six-colored lights swept above the two men in black's heads and tore the black cloth they were covered in, into pieces. Long Shiya gasped even though he had prepared himself when he saw what No.1 and No.2 looked like.

The duo who stood before him were not human; he was looking at two skulls! There was a black flaming glow in the skulls' eyes. Long Shiya waved his right hand again and tore their black clothes open. As expected, there were two black skeletons. The most terrifying part was that they were still sentient and could fight, just as well as they spoke. That was beyond Long Shiya's expectations.

"What are you?"
