Chapter 3695: Refining True Spirit Puppets

Wang Qingshan and others traveled to other realms and eliminated several forces, including the Blood Fiend Palace, acquiring many immortal cultivation resources. They obtained seven Grade 8 mineral veins alone, along with a good amount of aperture-opening materials.

Wang Qingshan, Wang Mengbin, Liu Hongxue, Wang Qingfeng, and Bai Yuqi are currently in seclusion, attempting to open their second aperture. Bai Linger, Wang Yingjie, Wang Qingcheng, Sun Yuejiao, Wang Yulan, Wang Zongyun, and others have already opened their first aperture.

It would have been truly difficult to find so many aperture-opening materials if not for the elimination of these forces.

The Stone Cocoon, Sky Moon, and Shadow Charm races suffered heavy losses. While these three races still possess Mahayana cultivators, their numbers are small. It's impossible for Mahayana cultivators from major races to always guard their ancestral lands; they will inevitably travel, leading to some escaping detection.

As these three races no longer possess Profound Heaven Treasures, they are no longer considered major races.

The Ye family suffered heavy casualties when attacked by Bi Yan and her group of seven. It was truly remarkable that Ye Xuanji managed to escape unscathed, whereas most other major clans or sects attacked by Bi Yan and her group were annihilated.

Wang Changsheng took out a communication disk flickering with green light, cast a spell, and said, "Chuanming, come to Qinglian Peak and report on the chaos caused by the True Spirits."

"Yes, Old Ancestor."

Wang Chuanming assented.

Shortly after, Wang Chuanming appeared before Wang Changsheng.

The Wang family members exploited the Empty Mist Stone ore vein, extracting a significant amount of Empty Mist Divine Crystals. These were used to set up cross-realm communication arrays. Wang family spies are present in Guangyun Realm, Qianguang Realm, and Kunlun Realm, and they relay important information to Wang Chuanming via these arrays.

"How did the True Spirits escape from the Immortal Realm fragments?"

Wang Changsheng asked.

"It's unclear. Six True Spirits and one Grade 8 mid-grade Tiger Phoenix Butterfly escaped from the Immortal Realm fragments. They lost one True Spirit in their attack on the Ye family, but they have since allied with two more True Spirits, making a total of eight individuals and seven True Spirits: Bi Fang, Three-legged Golden Crow, Nine-headed Bird, Ghost Dove, Profound Nether Turtle, Seven-headed Owl, and Qiu Niu. The Profound Nether Turtle and Qiu Niu joined later. Conservatively, they possess over twenty Profound Heaven Treasures, have breached the strongholds of more than twenty major forces, and have caused the loss of over a hundred Mahayana cultivators."

Wang Chuanming slowly explained.

Even during the last conflict over the Qiankun Bottle, not a hundred Mahayana cultivators perished. The main battlefields then were the Xuanyang Realm, Sky Dome Realm, and Miaoyin Realm. This time, with the True Spirits causing chaos, more than a dozen realms have suffered, and over a hundred Mahayana cultivators have died.

"What is their objective in attacking these major forces everywhere?"

Wang Changsheng asked with a frown.

"It's likely to ascend to the Immortal Realm! After all, at this stage, nothing is more appealing than ascension."

Wang Chuanming analyzed, admitting he did not know Bi Yan and her group's true intentions and could only speculate.

"Where did they last appear?"

Wang Changsheng pressed.

"It's unknown. Their power is immense, and few survive their attacks. Decades ago, the powerful clan in the Yuzhi Realm suffered a devastating blow, with all fourteen Mahayana cultivators killed. The Cao family, Changyuan Palace, and Nangong family have issued a hefty reward, including Profound Heaven Treasures and Thunder Apricot Immortal Fruits, for any reliable leads."

Wang Chuanming reported truthfully.

Currently, all major forces have heightened their vigilance, with Mahayana cultivators who were traveling returning to their ancestral lands to reinforce defenses. However, this still hasn't stopped Bi Yan and her group, as ordinary formations cannot withstand spatial divine abilities.

"The Zhi Clan!"

Wang Changsheng frowned. He had heard of this clan; they possessed three Profound Heaven Treasures and were teeming with experts, not to be underestimated.

Even fourteen Mahayana cultivators couldn't stop Bi Yan and her group; their power is simply too immense! Seven True Spirits and one Grade 8 mid-grade Tiger Phoenix Butterfly—this force is incredibly powerful, enough to handle even major clans. If Bi Yan and her group were to target the Wang family, their losses would undoubtedly be significant. This is precisely why Wang Changsheng doesn't want to participate in eliminating the True Spirits; if he were to leave, and Bi Yan's group attacked Qinglian Island, the Wang family would suffer greatly.

So many True Spirits gathering to commit chaos is unprecedented in the history of the East Profound Continent Cluster.

Many forces live in constant fear, dreading that Bi Yan might target them next.

Some major forces have simply abandoned their ancestral lands, taking their elites to seek refuge in secret realms or minor worlds.

Without the constraints of major forces, some smaller powers are taking the opportunity to annex minor factions or eliminate rival forces, thereby strengthening themselves.

"Indeed! Many forces are worried about becoming the next victims! They are either hiding in secret realms or minor worlds, scattering their members, or strengthening their defenses."

Wang Chuanming reported.

After questioning for a while, Wang Changsheng dismissed Wang Chuanming.

Ye Xuanji arrived at Qinglian Peak and chatted with Wang Changsheng in a stone pavilion.

"Fellow Daoist Wang, are you truly not participating in this battle? The Cao family has invited many experts, including three Mahayana-stage diviners, to locate Bi Yan and her group. Once found, they can certainly be eliminated."

Ye Xuanji tried to persuade him. The Ye family still had several Mahayana cultivators, scattered across various parts of the Xuanyang Realm to avoid being wiped out in one go.

Until Bi Yan and her group are eliminated, she dares not return to the Northern Cold Ice Plains and can only remain on Qinglian Island, which is not a long-term solution.

"Fellow Daoist Cao and his group should be sufficient; I won't get involved."

Wang Changsheng declined, stating he did not wish to meddle in this matter, believing the Cao family should be able to resolve the situation with Bi Yan and her group.

"Could you lend me the Soul Annihilation Disk or the Bean Soldiers? I will certainly return them after use."

Ye Xuanji's tone was sincere.

"My apologies, Immortal Ye, but we have other uses for them."

Wang Changsheng politely refused.

Knowing that Bi Yan and her group were causing chaos everywhere, how could he lend out the Soul Annihilation Disk and the Bean Soldiers?

"Very well! Then I shall take my leave. I await good news from Fellow Daoist Cao and myself."

Ye Xuanji did not press the issue, rising to bid farewell.

She and Cao Tianhu's group left Qinglian Island, heading towards the Azurewood Realm.

Wang Changsheng summoned Wang Qingfeng, Wang Zongwu, and Wang Jiye, saying, "You should be aware of the chaos caused by the True Spirits. I plan to refine the True Spirit corpses into Grade 8 puppet beasts to enhance our family's foundation, and I will need your assistance."

Wang Qingfeng nodded and said, "I have experience refining Grade 8 puppet beasts."

"The three of you working together to refine Grade 8 puppet beasts will be more efficient and save time. I'm entrusting the corpse of the Win-Fish to you."

Wang Changsheng took out the Win-Fish's corpse, gave them a few instructions, and sent them back.

He arrived at a vast, interconnected mountain valley, took out the Fire Qilin's corpse, and sat down cross-legged.

Wang Changsheng opened his mouth and spewed out Glazed Ice Flame, which landed on the Fire Qilin's body.

The corpse of the Heaven-Devouring Rat was given to Wang Tun Tian for consumption. The True Spirit core of the Heaven-Devouring Rat was given to Wang Qingcheng for refinement, the Fire Qilin's True Spirit core to Liu Hongxue, and the Nine-Headed Ice Lion's True Spirit core to Bai Yuqi.

With Grade 8 spiritual flames at hand, refining puppet beasts from True Spirit corpses is quite convenient. Wang Qingfeng and the other two lacked Grade 8 spiritual flames, which is why they collaborated on the refinement.

The Wang family's Mahayana cultivators have eliminated many other Mahayana cultivators, yet the number of Mahayana cultivators possessing Grade 8 spiritual flames is extremely small, demonstrating the rarity and value of Grade 8 spiritual flames.
