Chapter 384: Chapter 68 Seems Like It’s Your Home [Seeking Monthly Tickets!]_1

Shut.

The antonym of ’open’, it also implies extinguishing the ignited flame.

Chu Liang explained the meaning of the word with his eyes to Wen Yulong.

Slapping his forehead, Wen Yulong said, "I really didn’t think about turning off the Demonic Flame Abyss Fire during a fight. You just wait for the injected True Qi to extinguish, it will naturally turn off, right?"

"When do you estimate it will extinguish?" asked Chu Liang.

"I specifically designed an array rune that can store True Qi. As long as enough True Qi is stored inside, it can burn for a long period with just a hint of a spark." A triumphant smile appeared on Wen Yulong’s face once again: "The amount of True Qi stored during my previous trial wasn’t much. I’d estimate it might burn for about another four hours."

Chu Liang fell silent.

Admittedly, it was quite impressive.

If cultivators have a prolonged battle, they will end up completely exhausting their True Qi. The array rune storing True Qi might even become a lifesaver at that point. Wen Yulong’s design shows great care and thoughtfulness.

Although deeply moved, it would have been nice if he had mentioned this earlier...

"Will it go off if I simply take off the armor?" Chu Liang asked again.

"The Demonic Flame Abyss Fire can’t be extinguished by removing the armor during its release," Wen Yulong replied. "Only by disengaging the battle state, can the armor be removed, to prevent accidental dislodging or any related damage during the fight."

Well, then.

Chu Liang felt completely at a loss.

He sighed and flipped his hand to form a pen, drawing several Cold Ice Runes in the air.

Sssshhhh...

The Demonic Flame Abyss Fire, being the essence of an earth’s flame, was finally extinguished after a barrage of twelve frosty auras hit.

"Cough... This battle armor, it is indeed a good improvement, thank you... cough!"

Brushing off the thick layer of icy frost and snowflakes from his body, Chu Liang raised a cloud of frosty dust, which made him cough several times.

Having removed the armor and turned it back into a Scale Ball, Chu Liang finally sat down with a peace of mind.

It must be said, the modifications made by Wen Yulong to this Treasure Armor were surprising. The changes made to the Flame Demon Battle Armor had indeed greatly amplified its power - even the people of Demonix Flame Valley hadn’t imagined it.

Those martial arts cultivators lacking long-range combat skills would be significantly restricted when faced with a widespread Demonic Flame Abyss Fire. Unless they were strong enough to strike him down instantly, they certainly could not withstand the sustained roasting from the Demonic Flame Abyss Fire once entangled in a fight.

However, the originally embarrassing style mixed in with the surprise remained unchanged.

"By the way, there is another matter." Wen Yulong added: "Dan Lingzi, who you asked me to contact last time, has sent a letter saying that the first batch of Spirit Gathering Pills has been produced. You can go and collect them."

"Oh?" Chu Liang’s eyes sparkled.

Previously, he had learned from Dan Lingzi the technique of producing fruit-flavored elixirs. While he did rush to produce some for a few days thereafter, various matters caused a delay. As a result, he couldn’t further the production of these Berry Elixirs himself.

Now, overseeing the entire industry of Silver Sword Peak, Chu Liang truly lacked time to get personally involved in production. Therefore, he decided to outsource the task of producing the fruit-flavored elixirs.

First, he found a couple of disciples from the Pill Furnace Hall who were qualified to learn this technique. He asked them to practice, so they could spare time to help make some elixirs later, which he would buy at a high price.

However, their learning process was not as fast as Chu Liang’s, and it would take some time before they could master the technique proficiently.

A few days ago, when Wen Yulong went to Taotie City to purchase refining materials, Chu Liang asked him to send a letter to Dan Lingzi. He requested Dan Lingzi to help produce Berry Concentration Pills, which he could purchase at a price higher than the market rate.

Giving that Dan Lingzi was already making a living by refining fruit-flavored elixirs, this wouldn’t hinder him much.

Naturally, Dan Lingzi agreed. Afterward, Chu Liang sent a batch of Gold Pattern Berries to him. Now, it seemed, the first order was ready.

The Berry Concentration Pills were among the most attractive products sold around the Berry Playground. As long as there were enough elixirs, the Berry Playground could continuously attract customers to Red Cotton Peak.

However, the stalls run by the Shu Mountain’s disciples alone were not enough to accommodate the influx of customers.

Chu Liang pondered, it seemed like it had been a while since he last heard from those shops in Taotie City that had agreed to open branches. He thought he should make another trip there soon.

...

As night fell again, a crescent moon appeared in the sky.

The night wind was brisk on the ancient tree at Biluo Peak, flapping people’s clothes up and down. In her white dress, Jiang Yuebai was standing on the tree branches, waiting. Her eyes shone brightly in the night.

The evening stars mirrored her eyes.

As he saw Senior Sister Jiang from afar, Chu Liang couldn’t help but feel amazed. Though he had met her many times before, her alluring beauty still took his breath away every time.

"Why did Senior Sister ask me to meet here?" Chu Liang asked, looking around somewhat nervously.

"My master has retreated into meditation." Jiang Yuebai smiled slightly.

"Ah..." Chu Liang’s entire body instantly relaxed, sitting on a tree branch, waving his hand, "I’m not afraid of Uncle Yan."

In her heart, Jiang Yuebai thought, but you are.

Of course, she didn’t expose Chu Liang’s little secret, instead saying: "The old spot has been discovered by someone, there have been frequent disturbances there recently, it’s quieter on Biluo Peak."

Chu Liang laughed sheepishly.

He was also to blame for this.

That place was originally Jiang Yuebai’s secret base, but last time he revealed two Zhou Tian Phenomenons there, attracting a large crowd of Shu Mountain disciples to watch, and there are still people who go there for no reason to have a look, and Little Baize has bumped into a few and couldn’t drive them away.

But sitting in this ancient tree of Biluo is also a quiet place.

Of course it’s not completely quiet, this was Daoist Yan’s territory before, and she would meditate here all year round, no one dared to approach except Jiang Yuebai. Now that she’s gone, this place naturally belongs to Jiang Yuebai alone.

Speaking of which, no one knows why Daoist Yan decided to retreat into meditation in an unknown location. Moreover, few people even know about her retreat.

"Keep my master’s retreat a secret, it’s enough that you know." Jiang Yuebai reminded him again.

Chu Liang didn’t think much of it at first, but when she reminded him, he instantly understood why.

Daoist Yan is about to break through!

Only for this reason would there be a need for such caution. Because she primarily practices the Daoist Jue Yun, once she breaks through, she will directly collide with the existing Daoist Master Jue Yun, and any leak may bring deliberate sabotage from those with ulterior motives.

Just like the previous attempt to disrupt Baize’s boundary status.

The contest for the Dao, whether overt or covert, is incredibly cruel.

The two sat shoulder to shoulder on a tall tree branch, their figures seemingly suspended in the crescent moon when viewed from the back, as if they were a pair of jade.

"On the first day of next month, the Four Seas Whale Guild will hold a coronation ceremony for the new Gang Leader, and everyone from the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands is invited," Jiang Yuebai calmly said, "Uncle in charge asked me to ask if you’re going."

"Four Seas Whale guild huh..." Chu Liang murmured.

Whenever the Whale guild appoints a new gang leader, a coronation ceremony is always held, inviting colleagues from the cultivation world, not only to celebrate, but also to announce to everyone the change of leadership within the Whale Guild and the need for interaction with the new spokesman.

Jiang Shenting’s accession this time is controversial, so the ceremony is bound to be grander than ever, with high specifications for inviting those from the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands to attend, in order to demonstrate his legitimacy.

As the sect leader of the Shu Mountain Peaks, Wang Xuanling is certain to attend such occasions as a representative.

Of course, the sect leader wouldn’t go alone, he needs a few disciples to accompany him. The Chief Disciple can’t escape this, Xu Ziyang, as his favorite disciple, is also among them, and the third person Wang Xuanling called was Chu Liang.

It’s just that he was too embarrassed to go to Silver Sword Peak to find someone... he was afraid of running into Empress Feng and knew that Jiang Yuebai and Chu Liang were close, so he had her relay the message when he notified her.

"Actually, I’m quite busy these days..." Chu Liang pondered for a moment, smiling, "But if senior sister is going, then of course I can’t fall behind."

"Tch." Jiang Yuebai laughed again, "I didn’t ask you to follow."

"The Four Seas Whale Guild is a mix of all sorts, as the chief disciple of Shu Mountain, you can’t make any mistakes. It’s our duty as juniors to accompany and protect you," Chu Liang said righteously.

Jiang Yuebai chuckled with her lips pursed, turning her head, falling silent for a while, then suddenly asked softly: "Then what if..."

"If I go to a dangerous place in the future, would you go with me?" she asked hesitantly.

"Of course." Chu Liang answered without hesitation.

Jiang Yuebai turned her head again to look at him, her gaze bright as an evening star, making Chu Liang a little dizzy.

But he stood up to the pressure, didn’t look away, and bravely met her gaze.

Even...

In his heart, he even wanted to move forward...

BOOM!

Just at this moment, a loud explosion came from the distance behind them, it was deafening even from so far away.

The two were both startled.

Jiang Yuebai looked in that direction and said, "What a powerful explosion."

Chu Liang murmured, "Don’t worry, someone will handle it."

He was trying to pick up the conversation where they had left off.

"But..." Jiang Yuebai glanced again, "That seems to be your place."

Chu Liang: "Eh?"
