Chapter 3913: Refining the Immortal-Exterminating Cannon

The Chiyang Market in the Chiyang Sea was very lively, with bustling streets and constant shouts. Although the auction had concluded some time ago, the Chiyang Market remained busy, with many cultivators visiting to acquire cultivation resources.

In a quiet small courtyard with grey tiles, Wang Ruyan, Wang Qingbai, and Xiahou Yao were idly sipping tea in a blue stone pavilion. Wang Qingling, Wang Qingxiao, and Wang Qiulin had gone out for a stroll, while Wang Changsheng remained in seclusion.

"I heard that the Carefree Demon Lord stole a Dao Enlightenment Pearl from the Pang family," Wang Qingbai exclaimed. "The Dao Enlightenment Pearl is refined from the core of a Dao Enlightenment Fruit. No wonder the Pang family dared not publicize it; even Grand Unity Golden Immortals, let alone Golden Immortals, would be tempted."

This news spread quickly, not long after the auction concluded. The value of the Dao Enlightenment Pearl far exceeded that of a Second-grade Dao Pill and a Mid-grade Chaos Armor. Wearing a Dao Enlightenment Pearl could significantly enhance an immortal's comprehension, greatly aiding them in understanding laws, secret techniques, deducing cultivation methods, refining pill formulas, and improving array formations.

"I heard the Pang family obtained this Dao Enlightenment Pearl from Tianji City," Xiahou Yao added. "There are also rumors that the Pang family destroyed the Qin family and seized it from them."

"If the Carefree Demon Lord truly stole the Dao Enlightenment Pearl, he's incredibly lucky," Wang Ruyan exclaimed. "If he manages to comprehend a supreme law, the Pang family will be in trouble." Wang Ruyan's face was filled with envy. Any immortal desired to master a supreme law, but they were incredibly difficult to comprehend. Not to mention the Tianchen Sea, even in the Chiyang Sea, she hadn't heard of any immortal who had managed to comprehend a supreme law.

"The Five Sacred Sect has offered an even higher reward," Wang Qingbai continued. "A Mid-grade Immortal Exterminator Cannon, a six-colored core from an early Golden Immortal, and a Mid-grade Chaos Armor. Many Golden Immortals are tempted and are searching everywhere for the Carefree Demon Lord."

"Even cultivators who provide the exact whereabouts of the Carefree Demon Lord can receive a five-colored core from an early Golden Immortal-stage Chaos Beast or a secret technique for opening five apertures," Xiahou Yao added. "To find the Carefree Demon Lord, the Five Sacred Sect has truly spared no expense."

"What are you all talking about? Has the Carefree Demon Lord been found?" a deep male voice rang out.

Wang Changsheng walked out, a smile on his face. After the auction, Wang Changsheng drank the True Spirit Jade Liquid, and its body tempering effects were excellent. His strength was already formidable, but after drinking two pots of True Spirit Jade Liquid, both his strength and physical body significantly improved, making him even more resilient.

"Father, you've emerged from seclusion! We were just talking about the Carefree Demon Lord!" Wang Qingbai briefly explained the sequence of events.

"A Dao Enlightenment Pearl! Tianji City!" Wang Qingling exclaimed.

"The Cao family didn't send any Golden Immortal cultivators to intervene?" Wang Changsheng asked curiously, surprised that given the rarity of the Dao Enlightenment Pearl, the Cao family hadn't dispatched any Golden Immortal cultivators.

"I'm not sure about that," Wang Qingling replied. "Perhaps the Cao family doesn't believe it. The Pang family initially claimed that a Second-grade Dao Pill and Mid-grade Chaos Armor were stolen. Now they're saying it was a Dao Enlightenment Pearl, which indeed makes it hard to believe."

"Never mind, this matter has nothing to do with us," Wang Changsheng said. "We've been out for quite some time. Let's return to Azure Lotus Island!"

Leaving the market, Wang Changsheng summoned his Jade Azure Boat. Carrying all seven of them, it quickly soared into the sky.

A year later, Wang Changsheng and the other six returned to Azure Lotus Island. As soon as they returned to Azure Lotus Island, Wang Changluo reported that the family's merchant caravan had been attacked.

"Have you found out Du Tianting's origin?" Wang Changsheng asked, frowning.

"Not yet," Wang Changluo replied. "The Dark Hall is currently investigating. Based on the information we currently have, it's highly probable that Du Tianting is from the Meng family. Over the years, some hostile forces or True Immortal cultivators who offended the Meng family have mysteriously disappeared. At the time of the incident, Du Tianting was also in the territory of the Nine Immortals Sect."

"Understood. You may go now and attend to your duties," Wang Changsheng instructed. "Instruct our clan members to be extra careful when venturing out and not to go alone. Send someone to inform Qingshan and the others to be wary of the Meng family."

Wang Changluo acknowledged and withdrew.

"The Bai family, the Meng family, hmph. If they truly did this, we'll settle the score with them sooner or later." Wang Ruyan's face was filled with murderous intent.

Wang Changsheng nodded, then released Wang Mengli and others. He instructed, "Mengli, take these three Nine-Turn Glazed Pills and the pure cores to Qingshan and the others, and tell them to use them carefully. Then, travel to the Chaos Continent and personally deliver them to Haitang, Yuqi, and Yingjie. Make sure to bring a few more clan members with you and ensure the handover is done in person."

Since Wang Qingling and others were in seclusion after taking the Nine-Turn Glazed Pills and couldn't leave, and other clan members weren't strong enough, Wang Changsheng had no choice but to send Wang Mengli on the errand. He took out a green storage bracelet and handed it to Wang Mengli. Considering the existence of Chaos Beasts, he also had Wang Mengli take the Seven-Star Soul Extinguishing Pearl, which he had acquired at the auction, to Wang Qingshan. This way, as long as the attacking Chaos Beasts were not Golden Immortal stage, Wang Qingshan should be able to hold his ground, or at the very least, retreat safely.

"Yes, Master," Wang Mengli assented.

Wang Changsheng summoned Wang Qingcheng and gave him a Nine-Turn Glazed Pill, which greatly excited Wang Qingcheng. After a brief chat, Wang Changsheng sent him back to cultivate.

Wang Changsheng entered a secret chamber, took out the Azure Lotus Creation Cauldron, and sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion. After meditating for an hour to restore his spirit, he opened his eyes, took out the refining materials, and began refining a Low-grade Immortal Exterminator Cannon. The power of an Immortal Exterminator Cannon should not be underestimated; even a defensive low-grade immortal artifact couldn't withstand it. His trip to the Chiyang Sea had been an eye-opener, and Wang Changsheng now understood how precious Chaos Beast cores were.

He opened his mouth and spewed out Glazed Ice Flames, which landed at the bottom of the Azure Lotus Creation Cauldron. He successively threw the materials into the cauldron, covered it with the lid, and expanded his divine sense, closely observing the changes within. The materials inside the cauldron gradually began to show signs of melting. Once all the materials had melted into molten iron, Wang Changsheng used his divine sense to shape the molten iron into the form of a cannon before proceeding with further refining.
