Chapter 2660: Long-Awaited Title

They collected five types of Level 7 refining materials, which are considered common among Level 7 materials. Rare materials are not so easy to obtain.

Besides them, a large number of clan members received orders to search for rare materials, especially defensive ones. The more rare materials found, the greater the merit.

All major forces were collecting high-level defensive materials, so it was not surprising that the Wang family was doing the same.

Wang Qingcheng nodded and said, "I wonder how Qingfeng is doing. I hope he can collect more good items so that Dad has a greater chance of passing the Seven-Nine Lightning Tribulation."

"He will," Sun Yuejiao said with a look of anticipation. "There's another underground auction in a month. I hope we can bid for high-level defensive materials."

The Myriad Volcano Mountain Range is a dangerous region on the Xuanling Continent, containing hundreds of thousands of volcanoes of various sizes. Many Level 7 demonic beasts inhabit it, and numerous fire-attributed natural treasures grow there.

The Myriad Volcano Mountain Range is located on the border between the human race and the Lizard race. Human cultivators who come here to search for treasures are easily ambushed by the Lizard race.

In a narrow valley in the northwest corner of the Myriad Volcano Mountain Range, loud explosions echoed from within, shaking the ground.

A piercing shriek rang out, and a golden light flew out of the valley. It was a giant golden silkworm, over a hundred zhang long and entirely golden, with some cyan spots on its body. It had a row of short insect legs on its underside and moved very quickly.

A fierce white sword light and a fierce red saber light shot out, heading straight for the golden silkworm.

The golden silkworm shot a golden light from each of its eyes, blocking the white sword light and the red saber light.

A saber clang that resounded through the heavens rang out, and a hazy cyan, sky-reaching saber light flew out of the valley, instantly appearing before the golden silkworm.

Just as the golden silkworm was about to dodge, a loud male shout rang out. The golden silkworm's body trembled slightly, and by the time it recovered its senses, the sky-reaching saber light had already struck it.

With a dull clang, the golden silkworm plummeted from high in the sky, a terrifying bloody gash appearing on its body.

A flash of white light, and a constantly swirling white net appeared out of thin air, instantly enveloping the golden silkworm.

The golden silkworm sprayed a stream of golden flames, engulfing the white net.

The surface of the white net lit up with countless white runes, emitting large amounts of white cold air that enveloped the golden silkworm's body.

A flash of red light, and a gigantic red brick appeared out of thin air, descending from the sky to smash the golden silkworm.

The golden silkworm quickly sprayed a stream of golden flames to support the giant red brick.

A whooshing sound filled the air as dense white lights shot forth, continuously striking the golden silkworm. A series of dull clangs echoed, and more wounds appeared on the golden silkworm's body, its enormous form writhing unceasingly.

Seizing this opportunity, the red brick glowed brightly and smashed down.

The ground shook as the golden silkworm was smashed into a pulp by the giant red brick.

As soon as a miniature golden silkworm emerged from its body, a red-glowing giant pagoda descended from the sky. It sprayed a beam of red light to cover the miniature golden silkworm and drew it into the red pagoda.

Wang Qingfeng and Dong Xueli walked out of the valley, their faces slightly pale.

A tall, thin elderly man in a cyan robe followed behind them. The old man's features were ordinary; it was Duan Tongtian, who had changed his appearance. He had already advanced to the late Void Refinement stage.

Wang Qingfeng had refined three defensive Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures and then asked Bai Yuqi to help set up a Level 6 defensive array. He and Dong Xueli personally guarded Duan Tongtian.

Duan Tongtian had survived his third great heavenly tribulation, sustaining significant injuries. After several centuries of recuperation with Azure Marrow Pills, he had fully recovered.

Wang Qingfeng received news that there was a top-grade Level 6 Golden Blaze Silkworm somewhere in the Myriad Volcano Mountain Range. Their strength was insufficient, so they could only seek Duan Tongtian's help.

Duan Tongtian naturally agreed and accompanied them to the Myriad Volcano Mountain Range.

Along the way, they encountered several Level 6 demonic beasts, none of which were a match for Duan Tongtian.

Wang Qingfeng chanted a spell, and the giant red brick flew up, rapidly shrinking. A huge pit appeared on the ground.

Dong Xueli walked over and collected the Golden Blaze Silkworm's corpse. If refined into inner armor, and with a high enough artifact refining skill, it could be forged into a mid-grade Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure.

Wang Qingfeng let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "We finally eliminated this demon, thanks to my father-in-..."

Before he could finish, Duan Tongtian shouted, "Xueli, be careful!"

Ripples spread in the void above Dong Xueli's head, and a giant beast claw appeared out of thin air, striking towards her. At the same time, three dazzling spiritual lights flew out from the void, heading straight for Dong Xueli.

Dong Xueli reacted quickly; a white jade pendant worn on her chest instantly emitted a dazzling white light, and a thick white light barrier appeared out of thin air, protecting her entire body.

The beast claw struck the white light barrier with a muffled thud, causing it to tremble. The three spiritual lights then successively hit the white light barrier, producing muffled thuds. The white light barrier's glow dimmed.

The void rippled, and a tall, thin elderly man in a cyan robe appeared, revealing himself to be from the Lizard race.

As soon as the cyan-robed old man appeared, he opened his mouth and let out a loud shriek, spraying a hazy cyan sound wave directly at Dong Xueli.

The cyan sound wave struck the white light barrier, like the last straw that broke the camel's back. The white light barrier shattered, and Dong Xueli swung her sword at the cyan sound wave.

"Clang!" Dong Xueli flew backward, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Before she could land, the void rippled, and a hazy cyan beast claw appeared, aiming for the top of Dong Xueli's head. Simultaneously, two cyan flying daggers and a golden halberd shot towards Dong Xueli.

A harsh saber clang echoed as thousands of hazy red saber qi swept over. The red saber qi condensed into a hazy red tornado, crushing the incoming cyan flying daggers and golden halberd.

Dong Xueli's right hand twitched, and a vast white sword qi swept out, destroying the cyan beast claw.

She channeled her spiritual power into the white jade pendant, causing the white light barrier to reappear. She also summoned a white-glowing shield, which spun continuously around her.

Three men and one woman appeared. The leader was the cyan-robed old man, who was at the late Void Refinement stage. The remaining three were all at the mid Void Refinement stage, and they were all from the Lizard race.

Duan Tongtian's face sank, filled with killing intent. He swung the cyan long saber in his hand, slashing towards the void. A hazy cyan, sky-reaching saber qi swept out horizontally.

Sweeping away thousands of troops!

Wherever the sky-reaching saber qi passed, whooshing sounds continuously filled the air, and the ground tore open.

The cyan-robed old man frowned and sprayed a hazy cyan sound wave, dispersing the incoming sky-reaching saber qi.

"Qingfeng, take Xueli and leave immediately. I'll cover your retreat," Duan Tongtian urgently transmitted to Wang Qingfeng.

He wasn't afraid of the Lizard race, but Dong Xueli and Wang Qingfeng's cultivation levels weren't high, and Dong Xueli was injured. He didn't want any accidents to befall them.

"Father-in-law, we can help. I brought a Level 6 puppet beast," Wang Qingfeng replied via spiritual transmission. If they left now, Duan Tongtian would be in great danger.

"They can't kill me. Go quickly, don't dilly-dally. Your presence here will only distract me," Duan Tongtian urged, performing a vertical slash with his cyan long saber.

Tens of thousands of hazy cyan saber qi swept out, then blurred and transformed into hazy cyan tornados, heading straight for the four cyan-robed old men. Wherever the cyan tornados passed, the ground tore open.

Learning that Duan Tongtian intended to cover their retreat, Dong Xueli frowned deeply and transmitted to Duan Tongtian, "Dad, you must come back alive."

Duan Tongtian froze, his eyes reddening. He hadn't heard Dong Xueli call him "Dad" in many years. He nodded in agreement.

Wang Qingfeng and Dong Xueli transformed into two streaks of light and broke through the air, fleeing. The four cyan-robed old men did not pursue them, as in their eyes, Duan Tongtian possessed more valuables.

Both sides unleashed their treasures and engaged in a fierce battle, with continuous roaring sounds.
