Chapter 090: Not Waiting Anymore (Part Four)

“Ke ke ke…”

In the Demon Realm, the Heavenly Demon Emperor laughed maniacally, a black banner hovering behind him, boundless black mist rolling forth, as if millions of souls were wailing within.

“I can’t believe it, I truly can’t believe it!”

The Heavenly Demon Emperor was laughing to the point of being giddy.

My Demon Sage!

Forty-six Transcending Tribulation experts died, all killed at once by a killer using special means to provoke a Heavenly Tribulation that took them all out in one go.

He just received this news and almost couldn’t breathe, nearly dying from laughter on the spot.

Surrounding the Heavenly Demon Emperor, numerous Demon Clan Transcending Tribulation experts wore sinister grins.

They were originally worried about the young generation of the Demon Clan, fearing that losing so many would leave them powerless moving forward.

But now?

No need to worry at all!

Because the Human Clan was no longer in a position to come back strong; at the moment, they were all out of power.

“Forty-six Transcending Tribulation experts, forty-six!”

The Heavenly Demon Emperor kept repeating this number, feeling like the Demon Clan had lost a monumental enemy.

“Send out the Demon Emperor’s command, contact every clan, we have the chance to storm the Great Wasteland and unify the First Heaven!”

“This time, I want my Ten Thousand Souls Banner to feast on Human Clan souls!”

“Understood!”

Meanwhile, back in the Demon World.

Other alien races, having received the news from spies in the Human Clan, erupted in excitement.

The death of forty-six Transcending Tribulation experts was like a festival for them.

Soon, they received the Heavenly Demon Emperor’s message.

“Attack!”

“Attack!”

“A once-in-a-millennium opportunity, we must strike while the Great Wasteland is in panic—now is our time!”

“Join forces; this time, we must make the Human Clan pay the price!”

“I think we should wait a bit. The Human Clan’s Transcending Tribulation experts are already dead; the birth of a single such expert takes a lot of time. Now that the Human Clan is in internal conflict, Lu Ye, the top of the Eternal Genius Ranking, just killed so many of their experts, and the Grand Dao Sect is on Lu Ye’s side. Other sects won’t just let this go.”

“They’ll definitely fight again, and it won’t be a small one.”

“Either the Grand Dao Sect collapses, or other sects suffer heavy losses. No need to rush!”

“Amitabha, that’s reasonable; I too feel we should wait a bit!”

“Alright, let’s hold on for now, but we must gather our strength and be ready to act at any moment!”

The various alien races began to discuss.

At this moment, a descendant of the water god among the divine races, named Shui Liang, spoke up.

“Perhaps we can also contact those forces that have suffered the most Transcending Tribulation losses.”

“What do you mean?”

“The Supreme Imperial Court contacted my divine race, claiming that if we can wipe out the Grand Dao Sect and kill Lu Ye, they would be willing to coexist with us!”

Hmm???

Shui Liang’s news instantly piqued the interest of the alien experts.

“Did the Supreme Imperial Court really say that?”

“Yes!”

“That’s interesting; let’s think it over.”

…

Grand Dao Sect!

“Can’t wait any longer!”

Lu Ye suddenly stood up. With no enemies showing up, just waiting here was a complete waste of life.

Lu Ye didn’t want to be idle anymore; he wanted to cultivate.

His figure disappeared.

When he reappeared, he was already at Dan Peak.

Lu Ye’s name was well-known throughout the Grand Dao Sect—everyone remembered the scene when he mowed down Transcending Tribulation experts as if it happened yesterday.

“Disciple Lu Ye, seeking an audience with the Qing Huo Peak Master!”

Upon hearing it was Lu Ye, the elder at Dan Peak didn’t dare delay and immediately took him up the peak, notifying Daoist Qing Huo.

They hadn’t gone far when Daoist Qing Huo’s laughter echoed through the air.

“Haha, Lu Ye, you’ve come to my Dan Peak! If you’re looking for Dan, feel free to ask me for anything!”

Lu Ye cupped his hands at Daoist Qing Huo.

“I’ve come to see the Peak Master; I’m not here to seek Dan, but rather to borrow the Nine Dragons Flame Furnace. I want to refine a large Dan.”

Daoist Qing Huo was immediately quite surprised.

“You can refine Dan?”

“I can!”

No need to be modest about this; Lu Ye’s alchemy skills were indeed something special!

“Then what Dan do you want to refine?”

“Nameless Dan, if I must name it, let’s call it the Giant Spirit Dan!”

“Huh?”

Daoist Qing Huo looked a bit dumbfounded.

Nameless Dan? That means this Dan was created by Lu Ye?

Come on, at your age to reach such a level already makes you a dragon among men, a genius! To master the way of Dan, you need long-term immersion; how could you be a master already?

“I understand the Peak Master might not believe me, but that’s fine. I just need to use the Nine Dragons Flame Furnace. It’s incredibly sturdy; even if I blow it up, it won’t be damaged at all. You can completely rest easy,” Lu Ye said with a smile.

This was indeed a valid point.

“Alright, please follow me!”

The two went to the location of the Nine Dragons Flame Furnace.

The Dan furnace was three feet in diameter, with nine dragons coiling around it. When in use, the dragons would expel flames, incredibly mysterious—a top-tier Dan furnace renowned throughout the Grand Dao Sect and the entire First Heaven.

“Um, can I watch you refine Dan?”

Daoist Qing Huo asked curiously.

He didn’t quite believe Lu Ye had advanced alchemy skills; if Lu Ye didn’t manage it, he could guide him from the side.

Who knows, maybe Lu Ye would be so impressed by his vast knowledge that he might choose to follow him to learn alchemy, and he could become Lu Ye’s half-master!

Just thinking about it was delightful.

Lu Ye didn’t refuse.

“Feel free, Peak Master.”

Lu Ye extended his palm, sunlight blazing beneath the furnace, as the nine coiled divine dragons seemed to come alive.

The furnace lit up, beginning to heat.

Daoist Qing Huo nodded; the way to heat the furnace was skillful, and controlling the flames was also adequate.

Lu Ye retrieved a handful of spiritual herbs and directly tossed them into the furnace.

“Eh?”

Daoist Qing Huo was startled as Lu Ye already threw in something that he barely even saw.

Hold on, who throws materials in like that?

The flames surged high, the heat quickly transforming the herbs into liquid.

Daoist Qing Huo raised his hands; if he weren’t afraid of embarrassing himself, he would have already covered his ears.

It’s going to explode!

The sound was deafening!

But the loud bang never came.

The furnace lid opened automatically, revealing twelve Qi Recovery Pills that emitted an intense medicinal fragrance, each pill perfectly round, smooth, and with clear lines and symmetry.

“Infinite Celestial Lord!”

Daoist Qing Huo exclaimed in shock.

It was done that fast?

Who refines Dan by throwing all the materials in at once? The order of medicinal properties is different and could easily cause a conflict!

Yet Lu Ye did just that.

And he succeeded!

Lu Ye tested the state of his current Dan refining, finding it still okay.

Then it was time to start.

A large pile of spiritual herbs suddenly appeared in Lu Ye’s hand, each exuding powerful spiritual essence.

After all, these were treasures from the Transcending Tribulation realm.

“Wait…”

Lu Ye tossed dozens of kinds of spiritual herbs into the Nine Dragons Flame Furnace all at once.

“…a moment!”

Lu Ye turned his head, manipulating the flames while curiously asking, “What’s wrong?”

Daoist Qing Huo’s face turned pale.

It’s over, the Dan Peak might just get blown to bits.
