1116: C1116 The Refinement Was Successful

C1116 The Refinement Was Successful

If a cultivator reaches the realm of the Heavenly Dao, they will have the ability to fly and can condense their spiritual energy wings to fly.

Even if their cultivation is higher, after reaching the Saint level, they still need to form wings of spiritual energy to fly.

At this moment, the man hadn't formed a pair of spiritual wings, but he could still fly in the sky. This was something that no cultivator in the Saint Level or the Heavenly Dao Level could do.

"He is an expert in the Saint Origin Stage."

Those who had reached the late stage of the Saint level were the first to speak. To be able to step on the air and fly without using any wings, this was definitely a sign of someone who had reached the Saint Spirit level.

In the sky, the figure quickly arrived at the Dao Verification Mountain Villa under everyone's gaze. He then stopped not far away from the Mountain Lord of the Dao Verification Mountain.

The man just stood there with his hands behind his back, and even though he didn't give off the slightest ripple, the air of nobility that came from him was enough to shake a man.

"Greetings, my king!"

At this moment, such a voice suddenly resounded from the crowd. Soon, everyone saw City Lord Shao and the old woman from the Fire County respectfully bow to the middle-aged man.

When the two of them saw the middle-aged man, their eyes were filled with respect.

This was because this person was the strongest person in the Fire Province, the ruler of the Fire Province, Duke Huo.

Many of the nearby cultivators hadn't seen Duke Huo for themselves, so they recognized who he was after hearing the two speak.

Immediately, many gazes shot over, all of them filled with shock.

There was probably no cultivator in the entire Grand Middle Sky who didn't know that there were three cultivators at the peak of the Saint Level in the Fire Country, and Duke Huo was one of them.

However, since Duke Huo was standing on a Spiritual Energy cloud, it was obvious that he had broken through to the Saint-level and entered the range of the Sacred Spirit Realm.

"Duke of Fire, you broke through?"

The owner of the Dao Verification Villa also looked at Duke Huo with a sharp voice. It was obvious that Duke Huo's breakthrough made him feel a lot of pressure.

The higher one's cultivation was, the more one could sense how strong the current Duke Huo was.

Although there was only a small difference between the peak Saint level and the Sacred Spirit level, the difference between the two was enormous.

"Hahaha, I've been cultivating for so many years, but I didn't think that this day would finally come."

Duke Huo laughed. Although his voice wasn't very loud, his words were filled with a domineering air.

However, the Dao Verification Mountain Master remained silent. If this was the previous situation and both he and Duke Huo were at the peak of the Saint Realm, he naturally wouldn't be afraid of Duke Huo.

However, the Duke of Fire had already broken through. There was a huge difference in status between the two.

"You are Nalan Yanran?"

The Duke of Huo merely glanced at the Dao Verification Mountain Master before looking at Nalan Yanran.

Nalan Yanran's pretty face was still pale. She frowned when she heard Duke Huo's words. In the past, she had been enemies with Duke Huo. Hence, she was naturally wary of Duke Huo.

At this moment, she hesitated for a moment after hearing the Duke of Flame speak. Only then did she nod her head.

"I heard my daughter talk about you a lot in the past, but now that I've met you, you do live up to your name. You didn't become the first cultivator in the history of the Grand Middle Heaven to pass the Nine Heavens Lightning in vain."

Duke Huo looked at Nalan Yanran and laughed.

Nalan Yanran nodded slightly. She was just about to open her mouth and reply when she suddenly heard the Duke of Huo speak again.

"Although you come from an ordinary family, the fact that you were able to survive the Nine Heavenly Lightning is enough to show how talented you are. As of now, my little prince of the Fire Country is not married yet, and is in need of a concubine. What do you think?"

"What do you think?"

The quiet Dao Validation Villa was clearly heard by all the cultivators when the Duke of Flame said those words.

At this moment, the Duke of Flame's eyes were also locked onto Nalan Yanran after he finished speaking.

However, after hearing these words, the expressions of all the cultivators in the Dao Verification Mountain Villa changed.

What did they hear?

Princess!

From Duke Huo's words, it was obvious that he wanted Nalan Yanran to become the Princess of their Fire County!

Although these words were different from what the Dao Validation Mountain Lord had said before, the meaning was the same.

It was obvious that they wanted Nalan Yanran to become one of them.

However, the previous intention of the chief of the Dao Verification Mountain was to accept Nalan Yanran as his disciple. Currently, the Duke of Huo wanted Nalan Yanran to become the Queen of the Fire Country.

At that time, with Nalan Yanran's talent, as long as she was together with the Duke and if she gave birth in the future, at that time, no matter how strong Nalan Yanran was, she would still be someone from the Huo Province.

One had to say that the words of the current Duke of Fire were even more overbearing than the words of the Dao Proving Mountain Lord.

However, at this moment, no cultivator dared to interrupt the Duke of Huo.

Even the chief of the Dao Validation Mountain didn't dare to!

This was the power of a Saint Spirit Realm cultivator.

Even though the Duke of Fire had only just broken through to the Sacred Spirit Realm, his strength was still far stronger than a peak Saint.

If the Duke of Fire took action, even if there were ten of them, they wouldn't be a match for the Duke of Fire, let alone just one.

At this moment, Nalan Yanran's originally pale face had also become even paler after the Duke of Flame's words sounded.

How could she possibly become the Queen of the Huo Province?

Because her relationship with the Huo Province was not friendly, she did not have any good feelings toward the entire Huo Province.

Now that she already had Ling Jian in her heart, she was even less interested in becoming the Princess of the Kingdom of Huo.

"Senior, I am of a low social status. I think I should leave such benefits to others."

Nalan Yanran hesitated for a moment before she could not resist opening her mouth and speaking these words.

After Nalan Yanran's words sounded, the surrounding sky seemed to have become quiet because of it.

A countless number of stunned eyes looked at Nalan Yanran. No one had expected that Nalan Yanran would actually choose to reject. This kind of courage was not something that she should have.

The current Duke of Fire had reached the initial stage of the Sacred Spirit class. It was unexpected that Nalan Yanran would actually dare to reject him.

"What did you say?"

The Duke of Flame did not expect Nalan Yanran to say such words. His expression immediately turned cold.

Nalan Yanran's face became even paler. However, she did not relent. Clearly, she did not intend to do so.

Currently, she already had Ling Jian in her heart. Naturally, she would not randomly marry someone else. No matter what, she would not choose to betray him.

After Nalan Yanran's words sounded, the surroundings immediately became quiet. It was as though they had descended into some kind of frightening strangeness.

Even those cultivators who had reached the late stage of the Saint realm felt their hearts jump at this moment.

One must know that Duke Huo was the ruler of the Fire Country. In the Fire Country, no one dared to oppose him.

Now that his cultivation had reached the Sacred Spirit level, his Eight Dao techniques were even fiercer than before.

Although Nalan Yanran was a cultivator who had passed the Nine Heavens Lightning, her future achievements would definitely reach the Sacred Spirit level.

However, her current cultivation was still too low in such a situation.

After all, the current Nalan Yanran only represented a potential stock in the future. Potential did not represent any strength before it truly matured.

If Nalan Yanran was given some time to truly mature, her future cultivation would definitely be able to surpass Duke Huo. Unfortunately, it was not now.

Compared to the others, the one who was under the most pressure at this moment was Nalan Yanran herself.

Even though there was no Spiritual Energy in the eyes that Duke Huo used to look at her, they still gave her an extremely powerful pressure.

"Hahaha."

Just as Nalan Yanran was about to be unable to endure the pressure released by the Duke of Huo, an incomparably loud laughter was suddenly emitted from the mouth of the Duke of Huo.

At the same time, the powerful pressure that was acting on Nalan Yanran's body suddenly relaxed at this moment. It was as though the snow and ice had been melted by the sun and quickly disappeared.

Nalan Yanran also lifted her head and looked at Duke Huo. Her eyes were filled with doubt. Clearly, she did not understand why Duke Huo had suddenly laughed out loud.

"Good, really not bad. You are indeed worthy of being a genius who has experienced the Nine Heavens Lightning. With your character, very few people of your generation can compare with you."

Duke Huo looked at Nalan Yanran with a face full of praise. His face was filled with a smile.

At this moment, even the surrounding cultivators were looking at the Duke of Huo with puzzled expressions.

They did not understand what Duke Huo meant at this moment.

Or could it be that the current Duke Huo had already given up on letting Nalan Yanran become the Queen of the Fire County?

Nalan Yanran was also extremely puzzled by the words of the Duke of Huo. She lifted her head and looked in the direction of the Duke of Huo. Seeing that the Duke of Huo was still smiling at her, she really thought that the Duke of Huo had given up. She was just about to cup her hands towards the Duke of Huo and thank him.

However, at this moment...

"Although there are many geniuses in the Fire Country, no one dares to speak to me like that. You are the first amongst your generation."

The Duke of Fire spoke again.

His gaze directly looked at the stunned Nalan Yanran and said, "A genius like you is something that my Huo Province does not have. I think that you have not made the wrong choice."

"Huh? Duke Huo!"

Nalan Yanran's expression immediately changed drastically when she heard this.

However, this time around, Duke Huo did not give her the chance to continue speaking. He merely raised his head and grabbed her figure with a wave of his hand.

"No matter what, I want your identity as a Empress."

The Duke of Fire's voice was extremely loud and clear. After he finished speaking, he suddenly looked at the old woman and City Lord Shao and asked, "Is that Ling Jian still out?"

"King, that brat hasn't come out yet!"

Both the old woman and City Lord Shao hurriedly shook their heads.

"Hmph, then wait here. Once that brat comes out, kill him on the spot!"

The Duke of Fire coldly said.

"Yes!"

The old woman and City Lord Shao hurriedly replied. In the next moment, the figure of the Duke of Flame turned into a ray of light and flew into the distant sky like lightning.

As for Nalan Yanran, she was taken away by the Duke of Huo without any accident.

"A month from now, I will hold a marriage in the Fire Country. Anyone present can participate if they wish to."

That was the last thing people heard. After that, the Duke of Flame disappeared.

Numerous gazes looked in the direction that the Duke of Flame had left in.

This was especially the case for the manor lord of the Dao Validation Villa. His eyes were burning with fury as he looked in the direction that the Duke of Flame had left.

Hmph! At this moment, he harrumphed coldly and didn't say anything else. His figure flashed toward the place where he had been in seclusion.

In the middle of the sky:

After a few short months, the entire Middle Sky was once again in an uproar.

This time, there was more than one reason. There were actually three reasons.

The three pieces of information were not much.

However, he had forgotten that the Middle Sky was a huge place. Normally, even one piece of news that could shock the entire Middle Sky was extremely rare.

Now, there were three pieces of such news. It was unbelievable.

And all three pieces of news, no matter which one it was, were sensational. None of them was weak.

Of the three pieces of news, the first one was that the Duke of Huo had broken through to the Holy Spirit Realm.

The Duke of Flame's cultivation was already at the peak of the Saint level, and he could be considered one of the strongest figures among those at the peak of the Saint level.

A few years ago, Duke Huo had gone into closed door cultivation, and he was the type of person who wouldn't come out unless he directly broke through to the Saint Spirit Realm. At that time, everyone had treated him as a joke.

How could the Sacred Spirit Realm be broken through just like that?

Even though the Duke of Flame had reached the peak of the Saint Level, in the eyes of many people, he didn't have the possibility of breaking through to the Holy Spirit Realm.

After all, it was too difficult. There were only twenty Saint Origin Stage cultivators in the entire Middle Sky.

If it was so easy to reach the Holy Spirit Realm, how could there only be twenty?

However, what they didn't expect was that within only a few years, the Duke of Huo, who used to be a saint, had become a Saint Spirit! He had become a real Saint Spirit cultivator!

Compared to the time when he had been mocked by all the cultivators of the Grand Middle Heaven for his arrogant words, this time, the Duke of Huo was just giving a tight slap to all those who had mocked him.

From now on, there would also be cultivators in the Saint Spirit Stage in the Fire Country.

The second piece of news was related to Nalan Yanran. Nalan Yanran had actually attracted the Nine Heavens Lightning when she was in the Dao Confirming Mountain Villa and had successfully passed through it.

She became the first cultivator in the history of the Grand Middle Heaven to experience the Nine Heavens Lightning and break through to the Saint level.

Compared to Duke Huo's breakthrough, Nalan Yanran's status and identity were inferior. However, the commotion that she caused was undoubtedly even greater than the Duke of Huo's breakthrough.

After all, she was the first person in history. Such an achievement was something that no one in the entire Grand Middle Sky could match.

Not to mention the fact that the current Duke of Huo's cultivation was only at the initial stage of the Sacred Spirit Stage, even if the Duke of Huo's cultivation had reached the middle stage of the Sacred Spirit Stage, he would still be unable to truly compare with Nalan Yanran in terms of achievement.

After all, Nalan Yanran had experienced the Nine Heavenly Lightning. In the eyes of ordinary cultivators, Sacred Spirit Realm cultivators were unattainable. However, this kind of situation was nothing if it was Nalan Yanran.

After all, Nalan Yanran had experienced the Nine Heavens Lightning. In the future, not to mention the Sacred Spirit level, even those above the Sacred Spirit level might not be impossible to reach.

In comparison, the Duke of Flame's breakthrough was naturally insignificant. At the very least, it was not too shocking.

However, although Duke Huo's breakthrough and the shock caused by the news that Nalan Yanran had passed through the Nine Heavens Lightning were compared to the third news, these two pieces of news were nothing.

Duke Huo was about to get married and win the Empress.

The person who would be the Empress was Nalan Yanran, who had created a new record in history.

When news of this spread in the entire Middle Sky, the entire Middle Sky exploded.

The two influential figures were both involved.

Now, with the breakthrough of the Duke of Flame, the strength of the entire Kingdom of Huo had improved a lot.

If Nalan Yanran were to join the Flame Country, other than the Blood Sea Sect, it was likely that the other factions in the entire Middle Sky would no longer be able to shake the Flame Country.

In fact, if Nalan Yanran's cultivation were to completely breakthrough in the future, or even break through to an even higher realm...

Even the Blood Sea Sect would likely not be able to truly compare with the Huo Province at that time, right?

The Fire County would definitely become the true overlord of the entire Grand Middle Sky. Even the Blood Sea Sect wouldn't be able to compare.

"This Duke Huo is really arrogant. I heard that Nalan Yanran wasn't willing to marry that prince, but she was still captured by Duke Huo in the end."

"That's right. The news that I heard was also like this. It is said that Nalan Yanran had already rejected Duke Huo's request back then, but she was ultimately captured by Duke Huo."

"It is said that the chief of the Dao Verification Mountain also suggested that he take in Nalan Yanran as his disciple. However, he did not expect the Duke of Flame to appear and take Nalan Yanran away. The plan of the head of the Orthodox Dao Villa to take in a disciple was destroyed by the Duke of Flame in the end."

"I can't believe the Duke of Huo is so stupid. It is not a matter of a day or two anyway. I am afraid this is just the beginning. When he truly stabilizes his cultivation, if he is only in the Saint Spirit Stage, the forces around him won't have a good ending, will they?"

"Of course it will happen. Given the Duke of Huo's temper, he will surely expand his ambitions."

"However, it is a pity for Nalan Yanran. She has already passed the Nine Sky Lightning, but she is still unable to decide her own fate."

"This is something that cannot be helped, right? Who asked her to be born with such a weak background? Forget about the fact that Duke Huo has already broken through to the Saint Spirit Realm. Even if he had not, with Nalan Yanran's background, it is impossible for her to possess any opportunity to resist."

"This is nothing. I have heard that the thing that Duke Huo hates the most is Ling Jian. Nalan Yanran clearly admires Ling Jian, but after returning to the Fire Country, she actually sent Imperial Adviser Zhou. This Imperial Adviser Zhou is a true expert at the peak of the Saint Realm. I'm afraid that Ling Jian will not have any chance of surviving this trip to the Orthodox Dao Villa, right?"

"State Preceptor Zhou was there? Then this time, Ling Jian will definitely not be able to escape. Not to mention that it's impossible for him to break through to the Saint level, even if he did break through, Imperial Advisor Zhou's strength is not something he can fight against."

At the most eastern side of the city, the Nalan family.

At this moment, an enormous golden flying ship floated in the air.

At the front of the flying boat stood a white-haired elder. This was an elderly man. The old man wore a loose white robe with a majestic python embroidered on the back.

In the Fire Province, apart from Duke Huo, the two other peak Saint cultivators were the strongest.

Back then, Duke Huo hadn't truly broken through and was still at the peak Saint level. In order to show his sincerity, Duke Huo gave the other two titles.

Imperial Advisor Zhou's name was King Zhou.

The other person was the current King Reliance. Although both of them were Kings, they had the right to be on the same level as Duke Huo.

Now that the Duke of Flame had broken through, both King Reliance and Imperial Advisor Zhou were no longer on the same level as the Duke of Flame, but their titles were still there.

In the entire Fire County, except for the Duke of Flame, even the other lords had to be respectful to them.

At this moment, the elder standing in front of the flying boat was King Reliance, who was the only one besides King Zhou.

King Reliance was one of the two Kings of the Fire County.

Since King Zhou had been sent to the Dao Validation Villa by King Huo, King Reliance was in charge of the east side of the city.

After all, Nalan Yanran came from the easternmost part of the city. Now that Nalan Yanran was about to become the Queen of the Huo Province, the Nalan clan naturally became a relative of the Huo Province's Imperial Family. Although he had a noble status and was the King of the backers, he was still auctioned off by the Huo Province at this moment.

At this moment, King Reliance looked down at the busy people of the Nalan Family and shook his head.

"I didn't think that such a family would have a genius that managed to pass through the Nine Heavens Lightning. What a joke."

King Reliance laughed in disdain.

If it wasn't because Nalan Yanran came from the east side of the city, he obviously wouldn't have personally come.

At the same time, in the room of the Nalan family below:

Nalan Mingyue's face was filled with anxiety as she looked at a man in front of her.

This man was the current patriarch of the Nalan Family, the patriarch of the Nalan Family.

The Nalan clan head still glanced at Nalan Mingyue. He suddenly let out a long sigh and said, "Mingyue, you don't need to come and beg me. As a father, I can't do anything about this kind of thing. Nalan Yanran marrying into the Fire County can be considered her fortune."

"What fortune? Sister Huo didn't like him at all, and she had never seen the Duke of Huo. How could she be willing to marry him? Besides, even if she marries him, she won't be happy in the future, will she? "

Nalan Mingyue looked at her father and was so anxious that she almost burst into tears.

Although in the eastern part of the city, everyone felt that Nalan Yanran marrying into the Fire Country and becoming the Princess of the Fire Country was something that would bring honor to her ancestors.

However, as Nalan Yanran's biological sister, Nalan Mingyue clearly knew that her own sister was not willing to marry the Duke of Fire County.

Similarly, her sister did not want to be a princess!

"Father, Father, do you really plan to watch older sister spend the rest of her life unhappily like this?"

Seeing that her dad didn't say anything, Nalan Mingyue smiled bitterly again.

The Nalan clan head was also silent. Only a moment later did he helplessly sigh and say, "Mingyue, of course I know that Nalan Yanran does not wish to be the princess of a duke. However, do you really think that such a thing is possible? Can it be controlled by our Nalan clan?"

"The Duke of Huo of the Fire County has just broken through the realm of the Sacred Spirit and has become the twenty-first Sacred Spirit expert of the Grand Culmination Heavens. Furthermore, the Duke of Huo has personally spoken of this matter."

The cultivation of the Head of the Nalan Family was still too weak. Although he was at the late stage of the Saint Realm, he was still a strong person in the eastern part of the city.

However, compared to the entire Fire Country, what did a cultivator at the late stage of the Saint Realm count for?

Not to mention the late stage of the Saint Origin Stage, even a cultivator in the peak stage of the Saint Origin Stage could be easily crushed in the Fire Country.

"Then please ask those Saint Spirit Stage cultivators to help. I just want to save my sister so that she won't have to live the rest of her life like this!"

Nalan Mingyue's face was also full of stubbornness.0

Hearing this, the helplessness on the face of the Nalan Family Head became even more apparent. Following that, he revealed an extremely helpless and bitter smile.

A Saint Soul Stage cultivator, especially one who could ask for anything he wanted?

"Patriarch of the Nalan Clan, it is getting late. If you are ready, let's go!"

At this moment, a voice suddenly fell from the sky and entered the ears of the Patriarch of the Nalan Clan.

The expression of the Nalan clan head changed slightly after hearing this voice. He hurriedly replied, "King Reliance, wait a moment. I will be there soon."

After saying that, the Nalan Clan Head looked at Nalan Mingyue again and said, "Mingyue, I will ask you one more time. Are you going or not?"

The stubbornness on Nalan Mingyue's face was still there, but she could only nod her head in the end.

As Nalan Yanran's biological sister, she naturally had to personally witness Nalan Yanran's wedding this time around.

Of course, other than this matter, she even had another thought. That was that she had a feeling that Ling Jian would definitely be present at this wedding. At that time, he would rescue Nalan Yanran.

As the important people of the Nalan clan boarded the flying boat in the eastern part of the city, the enormous flying boat that represented the Fire Country swiftly flew in the direction of the eastern part of the city.

Just as it left the easternmost city, the speed of the flying boat instantly reached its peak.

According to Huo Jun's plan, the wedding should be held as soon as possible.

As for the Nalan Clan Master and the others, they had to get to Huo Jun as soon as possible.

In the Dao Validation Villa, inside the Pond of Dao Validation.

It had been over two weeks since the stone pillar in the Dao Validation Heavenly Lake was broken.

In these two weeks, Ling Jian had been refining the Ten Thousand Sea Scabbard.

Now, after more than two weeks, the Ten Thousand Sea Scabbard was finally going to be successfully refined by Ling Jian.

At this moment, Ling Jian was sitting cross-legged in the Heavenly Pond of Dao Verification. The Ten Thousand Sea Scabbard was floating in front of him.

Streams of air that could be seen by the naked eye came out from Ling Jian's nose and kept entering the Myriad Sea Sword Scabbard in front of him.

Weng!

At this moment, the entire space of the Heaven Dao Confirming Lake suddenly resounded with such a shocking sound.

Ling Jian's originally closed eyes suddenly opened at this moment.

"Did he succeed?"

Ling Jian's eyes were filled with excitement as he looked at the Ten Thousand Sea Scabbard in front of him.

"That's right. You've already successfully refined the Ten Thousand Sea Scabbard."

At the same time, the voice of the Ten Thousand Worlds sounded in Ling Jian's mind.

When Ling Jian heard it, the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter. He looked at the Ten Thousand Sea Scabbard in front of him and suddenly reached out his hand to grab it.
