Chapter 4493: Qingxuan Awakens (No more today)

Wang Changsheng swept his divine sense around, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

"Fairy Qingmei! Bodhi Divine Crystal."

Wang Changsheng said to himself.

The Enlightenment Pagoda had already been upgraded to a high-grade immortal artifact. To elevate it to a top-grade immortal artifact, more precious materials were required; the Bodhi Divine Crystal alone would not suffice.

According to the jade slip, Fairy Qingmei originated from a small family. While she was traveling, her family was annihilated by their enemies. By the time she returned, she had already attained the Taiyi Golden Immortal stage, and with her great divine abilities, she eliminated her adversaries, becoming widely known throughout the region.

Fairy Qingmei and a friend were searching for treasure. They engaged in a fierce battle over an item, and Fairy Qingmei managed to seize a Bodhi Divine Crystal, though she was severely wounded by her friend in the process.

The Yama Palace also sought to find Fairy Qingmei and acquire that Bodhi Divine Crystal.

"Haitang, contact Qiulin and have him deduce Fairy Qingmei's location. This will help Chuanming establish himself." Wang Changsheng instructed, handing the jade slip to Ye Haitang.

Ye Haitang agreed, accepting the order and departing.

"You're new here! If you find Fairy Qingmei too quickly, it will certainly arouse suspicion!" Wang Changsheng said.

"Your grandson plans to first go to her last known location. I'll also send my subordinates to conduct discreet inquiries. Then, I'll have someone contact my subordinates and provide some false leads, stating that she was sighted in certain places. I'll go investigate those leads, and after tens of thousands of years, I'll 'unexpectedly' discover her true identity. This approach seems more reasonable." Wang Chuanming stated his plan.

"If you find her, what do you intend to do? Kill her?" Wang Changsheng continued to ask.

"She is only at the early Taiyi Golden Immortal stage. If she's willing to cooperate with me, that would be ideal. If not, I will eliminate her." Wang Chuanming said.

Wang Changsheng nodded and inquired about Wang Chuanming's daily routines in the Yama Palace, to which Wang Chuanming truthfully replied.

"Oh, right, Old Ancestor, Ancestor Qingbai asked me to give you these. They are all artifact refining materials collected by our clansmen. Last time, Ancestor Qiulin and Ancestor Haitang left in a hurry and couldn't take them, so they asked me to bring them this time." Wang Chuanming took out a golden storage bracelet and handed it to Wang Changsheng.

"A Grandmist Spirit Treasure!" Wang Changsheng exclaimed in surprise after sweeping his divine sense over it.

"Ancestor Qingshan acquired it from a Heavenly Mystery Box," Wang Chuanming explained.

"Besides the Grandmist Spirit Treasure, there's another good item," Qingxuan's voice sounded.

Wang Changsheng was filled with pleasant surprise; Qingxuan had actually awakened. It seemed the storage bracelet contained something that piqued his interest.

Wang Qiulin and Ye Haitang entered, Wang Qiulin's face grim.

"Fairy Qingmei is dead. Her body was seized. Based on her natal immortal artifact and divine abilities, I've deduced the whereabouts of the person who possessed her. She is in Biyue City, within the Biyue Sea Region, at a location where bamboo is abundant," Wang Qiulin said.

He had tried to deduce her location using her birth chart, but yielded no results. However, by deducing based on Fairy Qingmei's natal immortal artifact and divine abilities, he was still able to pinpoint the person's whereabouts.

"Her body was seized? Are you sure?" Wang Chuanming asked.

"Confirmed. She must have been possessed a long time ago. The current Fairy Qingmei is someone else entirely. Had I not acquired the Heavenly Mystery Plate, I truly wouldn't have been able to deduce this," Wang Qiulin explained, noting that with his mastery of the Law of Destiny and a rare treasure like the Heavenly Mystery Plate, his deduction and divination abilities had vastly improved.

"Good, I'll head to Biyue Sea Region immediately," Wang Chuanming said excitedly. Wang Qiulin had already narrowed down the search area, and it would be utterly incompetent of him if he still couldn't locate Fairy Qingmei.

"You all may go and attend to your duties! Chuanming, find out which Taiyi Golden Immortal diviners are active in the Barren Immortal Realm, and who among them is in contact with cultivators from Haotian Palace. We will show no mercy to anyone who dares to assist Haotian Palace with divination and deduction." Wang Changsheng said, his face filled with killing intent.

The three, including Wang Chuanming, agreed and withdrew.

A bright blue light emanated from Wang Changsheng's body as he stepped into the Four Seasons Diagram.

He entered a secret chamber in the Azure Lotus Palace, flicked his sleeve, and watched as the Azure Lotus Creation Cauldron flew out and settled onto the ground.

Wang Changsheng took out a golden storage bracelet and gently flicked his wrist. After a sweep of golden light, a large pile of items appeared on the ground.

Besides a Grandmist Spirit Treasure, there were many rare artifact refining materials, including a Time God Crystal and a Moon Star Stone of Samsara.

Wang Changsheng picked up a pale golden jade stone, its surface riddled with numerous pinhole-sized holes.

It felt incredibly light, like holding a thin piece of paper. When he gently shook the golden jade stone, a whistling sound of strong wind could be heard.

"You also found something wrong with this item?!" Qingxuan's voice sounded.

As soon as the words fell, the lotus pattern on the surface of the Azure Lotus Creation Cauldron instantly lit up, and Qingxuan emerged.

"I recognize all the other materials, but not this jade stone. What kind of material is it?" Wang Changsheng asked.

"It's Wind Falcon Stone, but other materials have been refined into it, making it a semi-finished product. It's normal that you wouldn't recognize it. Wind Falcon Stone can be used to refine top-grade wind-attribute immortal artifacts," Qingxuan explained.

"If you like it, take it! And the Grandmist Spirit Treasure too!" Wang Changsheng said, tossing the Wind Falcon Stone and the Grandmist Spirit Treasure to Qingxuan.

With Qingxuan present, Wang Changsheng was not afraid, even if Immortal Lord Lieyang were to enlist the help of a diviner who mastered the Law of Destiny.

"The Wind Falcon Stone is sufficient. If you refine the Grandmist Spirit Treasure into the Sea Stabilizing Pearl and then use the Dao technique 'Size as You Wish,' its power will significantly increase." Qingxuan consumed the Wind Falcon Stone and returned the Grandmist Spirit Treasure to Wang Changsheng.

"Is one Wind Falcon Stone enough?" Wang Changsheng said with a frown.

"It's enough. I can make one more move without a problem. You can also keep the Grandmist Spirit Treasure for now! I might need it someday," Qingxuan said.

"Let's keep it for now! Mastering the Dao technique 'Eight-armed Vajra' is sufficient. If I acquire another Grandmist Spirit Treasure, then I can consider refining it into the Sea Stabilizing Pearl," Wang Changsheng said. He naturally understood that refining the Grandmist Spirit Treasure into the Sea Stabilizing Pearl would indeed significantly enhance its power. However, if they encountered an intractable problem, Qingxuan might unexpectedly fall back into slumber. Keeping a Grandmist Spirit Treasure meant preserving a chance to save his life.

He was very clear about what truly mattered.

"Alright then! With Qiulin, the Heavenly Mystery Plate, and the Big Dipper Reversal Array, there's no problem as long as a Daluo Golden Immortal doesn't make a move. And now that I'm awake, I'm not even afraid if a Daluo Golden Immortal takes action," Qingxuan said with a confident expression.

Wang Changsheng didn't doubt the truth of Qingxuan's words. He said, "You should rest and recuperate for now! If I need you to take action, I will contact you."

Qingxuan stretched, then transformed into a streak of green light and flew back into the Azure Lotus Creation Cauldron.

Wang Changsheng took out some artifact refining materials and began his work.

He intended to refine a high-grade time immortal artifact for Wang Chuanming to enhance his strength. The stronger Wang Chuanming became, the higher his status in the Yama Palace would be, allowing him to provide greater assistance to the Wang family.

Wang Changsheng opened his mouth and exhaled a stream of snow-blue flames that settled at the base of the Azure Lotus Creation Cauldron. He then tossed the artifact refining materials inside and closed the lid.

As time slowly passed, the artifact refining materials melted into molten metal, which, under the precise control of his divine sense, began to condense into a specific form.
