Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming-Chapter 369 - 366 Refining the Space Gate
Chapter 369: Chapter 366 Refining the Space Gate
Qin Feng was stunned by the words, then curiously said, “Master, could we ask a few Supreme Elders to help and slay that Demon Beast that has achieved Demon God status? If you could refine it for your Druid transformation, wouldn’t that be a huge gain?”
“Hehe…”
Ning Wuxu couldn’t help but laugh, “You sure have wild thoughts.”
“Why not try and see if it doesn’t work?”
Qin Feng, however, held a different opinion, “Although that Demon God is comparable to a True Immortal in terms of realm, there is still a significant difference from the Immortal Dao. Moreover, since that creature has only ascended to Demon God due to the special intervention of the World Will, it implies that its own strength is actually slightly inferior and not yet ripe for promotion.
Moreover, it had just become a Demon God and its realm was unstable when it was severely injured by the Supreme Elders of various sects during the Great Battle between Immortals and Demons. As many Demon Gods were killed, the Demon Clan’s Qi Fortune declined, and the World Will was weakened, the World Will originally imbued in that beast would also have somewhat waned, causing its realm to slide as well.
Disciple thinks, Master, you might as well give it a try. With your Dao cultivation, steadfast Daoist heart, and various secret cultivation techniques to aid you, success might not be out of reach.”
Ning Wuxu pondered for a moment, then smiled, “What you say is right, I have thought about this issue before, but I felt that since that creature has already ascended to Demon God, I might not be able to successfully integrate it, and there are too many risks involved, which is why I have been hesitant.
But I forgot that our cultivation path is meant to contest with the heavens, and there has never been a smooth journey on the path of cultivation. Hesitating like this goes against my initial heart and the promise I made during my earlier years of cultivation.
All right, as a cultivator of the Primordial Spirit Realm, am I, your teacher, seeing less clearly than you, a disciple in the Golden Core Realm? If I retreat this time, though my Daoist heart might remain unharmed, retreating in the face of difficulties in the future might jeopardize my path to Immortality.
With that said, let’s take this risk. Should I succeed, I would swiftly achieve Immortality through proving the Dao; should I fail, it is but some damage to my Primordial Spirit, nothing too grave!”
“Master will definitely succeed,” Qin Feng praised.
However, he did not know how difficult it was for Ning Wuxu to make this decision.
In fact, if the integration truly failed, Ning Wuxu’s Primordial Spirit would inevitably suffer backlash from the Demon God’s Power of Laws, a Dao injury, which was not easily healed.
Should he be unable to comprehend more profound Dao Principles later or fail to find special wonders with corresponding Law Powers to heal the injuries, his path in Dao would have no further progression.
“All right, I will return and ask Grandmaster Kongkong to pass the message to the Supreme Elders of all sects, asking them to not strike too heavily when they encounter that Demon God, as scattering its soul and spirit would render it useless.”
Having made up his mind, Ning Wuxu didn’t linger and said to Qin Feng, “Be very careful during your trip to the Demon Domain, and do not expose your identity.
Although currently, the cities and clans within the Demon Domain are in great chaos, there are quite a few strong figures there. Among them, those from the Demon Clan unwilling to accept defeat and aiming for a counterattack are not few. Remember not to recklessly head to major cities, as you would hardly escape if those Super Experts and Demigod Realm strong figures detect even a hint.
Though you possess a level-nine Giant Dragon and can transform into a Rock Giant, such strength is nothing in the eyes of a Demigod Realm powerhouse!”
Qin Feng hastily replied, “Don’t worry, Master, I understand my own cultivation and will surely not act recklessly.”
Though he sometimes took risks, honestly, most of the time, he embarked on ventures only when there was a certainty of success above sixty or seventy percent, whether it was the initial infiltration into the Light Holy Mountain, seizing the Demon Core from the Rock Giant, forcibly subduing the White Dragon to capture the Nine-Headed Snake, or entering the Dragon Tomb to snatch the Dragon Spirit Fruit, he always went on such ventures only when there was a high likelihood of success.
Even if he failed, he had prepared a way out for himself so that he wouldn’t meet with mortal danger.
Otherwise, he would rather miss some opportunities than risk his life.

Long ago, he had understood that on the path of cultivation one must tread as if on thin ice, always keeping himself alert, in order to have a longer life and seize more opportunities.
Otherwise, rashly risking one’s life for trivial benefits could likely end in death, with both life and belongings lost!
“You understand, that’s good.”
Ning Wuxu nodded satisfactorily, “In that case, I will head back first.”
Having said that, he glanced at Elder Ling who was nearby, calming the recently returned disciples. He nodded slightly and then soared into the air, quickly flying back the way he had come.
“Disciple sees off Master.”
Qin Feng bowed, watching his master disappear into the distance before he straightened up.
After Elder Ling had calmed the disciples, Qin Feng approached and said, “Senior Brother Ling, I think everyone should not proceed further for now. This mountainous terrain is vast and stretches for thousands of miles, the elemental energy within the mountain is rich, it must also be a blessed land for cultivation.
Earlier, when I sneaked into that Demon Dragon’s nest, I discovered a huge vein of Fire Element Demon Crystals, and the quality is very good. Why don’t we let everyone start exploring from the vein in the Demon Dragon’s nest?
If we go further, beyond this mountain, there are still many Demon Clan cities. Although many demons have started migrating to avoid the sharp edges of our alliance,
They would rather endure the hardship of migration than stay put, obviously having no intention of surrendering. If our team encounters them, conflicts could easily arise again. We don’t have many people on this trip, it’s not wise to engage in battle with the Demon Clan.”
“Good!”
Elder Ling nodded in agreement, “Actually, this outing wasn’t intended to delve deeper into the unoccupied Demon Domains, but seeing the Demon Cities evacuating, we were dispatched to scout the area.
These disciples, although capable of combat, possess greater value in their divine skills in surveying land currents and Spirit Vein mines. It’s not quite suitable for them to fight demons on the front lines.”
Qin Feng smiled, “Then it’s settled, Senior Brother leads the fellow disciples to investigate here, and I will take my leave.”
“Junior Brother, you’ve just had a big battle, don’t you need to rest a while before going?”
“No need.”
Qin Feng shook his head, “I am only unable to sustain the Rock Giant transformation for a long time due to lack of physical strength; the Earth Element magic I used earlier was all from the energy of the Rock Giant’s Demon Core, and my own True Yuan hasn’t been depleted much.
Right now, the Demon Domain in front is still in a chaotic state, dragons headless, every tribe and city acting on its own.
Moreover, when relocating, they have to take many treasures with them. Given the selfish and greedy nature of the Demon Clan, they wouldn’t trust other Demon Clan powerhouses not to covet their belongings. Thus, I plan to go early, hoping to fish in troubled waters and maybe gather some resources to take back.”
“You…”
Elder Ling sighed lightly, “This might be the reason you excel beyond most past True Disciples. Other disciples, after being ranked among the True Disciples, often choose to cultivate using the resources provided by the sect. Although their progress is rapid, they do not have the hardships you’ve endured.
Like your predecessor in the Spiritual Snake Lineage, Long Qibian, despite also being a True Disciple, not only did he not match your achievements during the Golden Core Realm, but I’m afraid even after your Senior Sister Liu had advanced to the Purple Mansion, she could still surpass him.
It’s not that his talent is poor or his aptitude is weak, but he lacks the hardships and thus, falls short in his disposition.
Your Senior Sister Liu Xuanling, upset about being cut off by Long Qibian from becoming a True Disciple, has always held a grudge against him. This drove her to be daring and battle-tested, rapidly advancing her cultivation. While wandering outside, she often provoked powerful foes and thus stumbled upon many opportunities that led to her current achievements.
The reason Long Qibian did not join this expedition and instead chose to stay behind to guard the Mountain Gate was to seclude himself for a few more years, hoping to advance his cultivation another step further and surpass Liu Xuanling in Dao Cultivation. Otherwise, if too many people compare him to Junior Sister Liu, he might develop some complexes.”
Qin Feng asked, unsure, “Does secluded cultivation ensure rapid progress?”
“It’s hard to say.”
Elder Ling said with a smile, “You haven’t been cultivating for many years, spent little time in secluded cultivation, and most of the time you have either been traveling outside or engaging in battles and seizing resources. Thus, you might not have a deep impression of these practices.
Actually, for us cultivators, secluded cultivation is more the norm because there aren’t many Cultivation Resources available in the Cultivation World. Although True Yuan can be accumulated through resources, Cultivation Realm advancement needs more of the cultivator’s own insights, especially for those with higher Dao Cultivation.
That’s why cultivators with profound Dao Cultivation often seclude themselves for long periods, sensing the Heavenly Dao and understanding the arcane of principles. You will do the same once you reach later stages of your cultivation.”
“Moreover, cultivators in the Cultivation World can be divided into two types: one like you who likes to travel and gather resources, and the other like Long Qibian who dislikes fighting and prefers secluded cultivation to comprehend the Heavenly Dao. Neither type is superior; each has its strengths.
Those who like to travel may encounter more opportunities, but opportunities often come with risks, and a small misstep could lead to death. You should know this; countless cultivators die every year in the Cultivation World, especially those Loose Cultivators who lack stable properties and long-term resource acquisition methods and must constantly take risks for cultivation.
Whereas cultivators who prefer secluded cultivation often have the backing of a sect or family power, and relatively, they are not in desperate need of resources. Thus, they can afford a relatively comfortable cultivation environment and are more willing to spend their energy comprehending the Heavenly Dao. These types of cultivators might not make any progress for decades or even a century, but once they have a sudden enlightenment, they advance significantly.”
“Thank you, Senior Brother, for your guidance.”
Hearing this, Qin Feng immediately understood the two common situations within the Cultivation World.
“It’s nothing much, just sharing some thoughts,” Elder Ling said with a light smile. “Actually, if not for the sect’s need for collective effort on this expedition, I too would prefer to stay at the Mountain Gate and cultivate comfortably. Who would want to venture out and desperately fight against these Demon Clans, right?”
“Senior Brother is right.”
Qin Feng echoed, understanding his feelings. If possible, even those Loose Cultivators on the lower rungs of the Cultivation World, who fought lethal battles, would also prefer a tranquil cultivation lifestyle rather than opting for risky adventures.
He didn’t want to delve further into this topic as it was pointless.
With the expansion strategy of the Biluo Great World starting to be implemented, most likely for many years to come, cultivators throughout the entire Cultivation World wouldn’t have much time for tranquil secluded cultivation. Cross-realm warfare would become the norm; plundering resources for repair and quiet cultivation to enhance their strength would be the focus.
He said, “Then, Senior Brother, continue leading our fellow disciples in this exploration; I will take my leave now.”
“Be careful, Junior Brother Qin!”
Elder Ling cautioned him.
“Thank you for your kind words, Senior Brother; I will be cautious,” Qin Feng replied with a bow, then transformed into a streak of golden light, speeding towards the distant Demon Domain.
He wanted to use this time to gather as many Cultivation Resources as possible to avoid struggling to activate the Demon Refining Pot upon returning to the Biluo Great World.
“Master…”
Inside the third layer of the Demon Refining Pot, within the Holy Light Domain, the White Dragon communicated with Qin Feng through their mental connection, “Didn’t you say you would share half of the Demon Dragon’s treasure with me?”
“You remember that quite well,” Qin Feng tapped his forehead; he wouldn’t admit he had almost forgotten about it.
Since the White Dragon had mentioned it now, he wouldn’t renege. He took out gold and ordinary gemstones from the Storage Bag and poured them into the third layer of the Demon Refining Pot.
As for those energy-rich treasures, apart from some low-level ones, he withheld the rest for himself.
Then, the White Dragon lying atop a massive trove of treasures in the center of the Holy Light Domain suddenly saw a cascade of golden gemstones pouring from above, the pleasant clinking sounds of gold and gemstones hitting its tough dragon scales almost burying its entire body.
“Ow…”
The White Dragon whined softly, almost fainting from bliss.
It gently rubbed its massive body against countless gold and gems, slowly poking its head out of the treasure pile and standing up, using its wings and claws to gather the treasure, “From now on, I must use gold and gemstones to build a palace in the Holy Light Domain!”
Qin Feng paid no heed to the White Dragon’s daydreams, swiftly flying over the mountains below and heading towards the distant Demon Domain.
…
Inside a vast and majestic Demon God Palace, Elder Kongkong directed many cultivators busily at work.
In other parts of the palace, several Supreme Elders from the Beast Taming Sect helped according to Elder Kongkong’s instructions to refine the Space Gate.
Had they not achieved a complete victory this time, sweeping the entire Demon God Palace clean, it would have been difficult to gather the special treasures required to refine the Space Gate.
The Demon God Palace, which was once the dwelling place of one of the most powerful Demon Gods of the Demon Clan and an important spatial node in this world, had been claimed by Elder Kongkong upon discovery.
