Longevity starts from having a daughter in old age

Those who had just fallen into the tripod were all disoriented; no one noticed Xu Mu’s abrupt disappearance.

Hehe!

The evil spirits opened their bloody mouths wide, made eerie laughter, and turned into streams of green smoke that pounced on the people, just like starving ghosts seeing delicious food.

“Damn it!”

Everyone’s expressions were panicked, immediately releasing magic artifacts, using skills, and hastily responding in disorder.

These evil spirits were indeed powerful. Even two people dealing with one ghost were somewhat overwhelmed, only able to fight defensively.

Casualties soon occurred amongst the group; the situation became extremely precarious, and everyone was expected to be wiped out soon.

At such a critical moment, no one noticed that Xu Mu had suddenly gone missing. They instinctively thought that he was swallowed by the evil spirits.

…

“What’s going on?”

Outside the tripod, Prince Jade was sitting cross-legged in the void, his sword-like eyebrows slightly furrowed, and a hint of confusion appeared on his handsome face.

Because he discovered that after the lid of the tripod was closed, he could not sense anything happening inside. This was the first time this had happened.

“Could it be that there are too many people thrown in at once, or is it that using the God Refining Tripod to elevate the Soul Banner will result in this kind of situation?”

Prince Jade was quite puzzled.

Although he had used the God Refining Tripod a few times, he was not proficient in the Jue of Heaven and Earth Moving Cauldron. His control over the God Refining Tripod was very limited, and he had never used it to refine magical artifacts, so he had no idea what could happen.

Faced with the sudden situation before him, he also had no other solution and could only let it be.

“Fortunately, I can still control it; I just have to elevate the Soul Banner!”

Although he very much wanted to take the God Refining Tripod away after success, he was more aware it was impossible. Since its discovery, no one had been able to completely refine this tripod. Simple control was the most one could achieve.

This was also the reason why the God Refining Tripod has been kept in the Sky Prison.

He was just at the initial stage of the Nascent Soul, and he also couldn’t do it. His goal was merely to use the God Refining Tripod, along with the residual souls in the Sky Prison, to raise the Soul Banner to the tenth tier.

As the power of Prince Jade was added, the people inside the tripod could resist even less, and one after another was devoured by the evil spirits.

…

At this time, in a foggy space, Xu Mu was looking around the environment.

The moment he was thrown into the God Refining tripod, he had already taken over control without Prince Jade noticing. He then quickly transferred into the internal space.

This space was very spacious, at least hundreds of kilometers, but there were no living things, just foggy everywhere.

“Not right, there are these things!”

Flying non-stop, Xu Mu saw hundreds of glittering golden pills floating in the center of the space.

“Could these be Sin Refining Pills?”

He could feel that each of these golden pills contained compressed pure soul power.

It might be left by the people who used the God Refining Tripod beforehand, or it might be specifically stored by the original owner of the God Refining Tripod.

Probably no one has been able to reach the core space, so it has always been stored here.

Anyway, these soul power pills don’t have an expiration date.

And being separated by the power of space, there’s no chance of being contaminated.

Now all of them were at Xu Mu’s disposal.

“With so many Sin Refining Pills, it will be easy to break through the late Golden Core stage!”

After taking all of these surprising finds, Xu Mu searched again, but found nothing else.

He then used a spell and relying on the power of space, he saw the battle situation inside the tripod.

“Should I save them?”

Looking at the precarious people, Xu Mu hesitated.

If he chose to save them, it would easily attract the attention of Prince Jade. But if he didn’t save them, when the matter ended and he was the only one who survived, it would also attract the attention of the imperial family.

In short, saving him will still lead to trouble.

Still, let’s save him!

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Mu chose to aid him.

With his level of control over the God Refining Tripod, he might be able to deceive the other party.

Xu Mu squeezed the Finger Jue, and the entire God Refining Tripod suddenly trembled violently. Prince Jade, who was using the God Refining Tripod to refine the Ten Thousand Souls Flag, suddenly lost control and was plunged into darkness.

“What’s happening?”

By the time he regained control, nothing was left in the God Refining Tripod but the lonely Ten Thousand Souls Flag.

It’s not that Xu Mu didn’t want to suppress the Ten Thousand Souls Flag, but that it was challenging to do so. The nine wicked ghosts were powerful, and forcibly suppressing them would consume much of his energy.

After all, he is only at the Golden Core Stage. If he were not deep inside the God Refining Tripod, he wouldn’t even be able to mobilize the power of space to separate them.

Suppressing the wicked ghosts was exhausting and thankless.

Furthermore, he was able to seize control of the God Refining Tripod because he had cultivated the Jue of Heaven and Earth Moving Cauldron to a much higher level than Prince Jade.

But he can’t take over the Ten Thousand Souls Flag. Prince Jade might notice something was amiss in the God Refining Tripod through his connection with the Ten Thousand Souls Flag.

So, for safety’s sake, he merely rescued everyone else.

“Damn! How could this happen? Who’s messing this up?”

Prince Jade could not help but feel frantic.

Why did his well-set plan keep running into problems?

He felt like he was losing control, and things were slipping through his fingers.

And yet, despite all his efforts, he could not identify the problem.

“Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!”

Prince Jade cursed frustratedly but had no choice but to carry on with a hardened resolve.

When he brought out the Ten Thousand Souls Flag, he had already reached the point of no return.

One after another, valuable materials were thrown in and constantly integrated into the Ten Thousand Souls Flag. The power of the nine wicked ghosts began to rise rapidly, just reaching the Nascent Soul level before the materials were almost entirely consumed.

Prince Jade finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least he had barely met his expectations.

Upon opening the lid of the tripod, nine malicious ghosts full of Yin evil spirits jumped out. Each ghost’s eyes were filled with madness and hunger, even making Prince Jade, their master, feel overwhelmed.

“Fortunately, I used the God Refining Tripod to refine it. If I had used ordinary methods, I would have been devoured by them before even finishing the refining process!”

Once again, Prince Jade was struck by the unfathomable power of the person who gave him this artifact.

If it had not been for the other party refining the flag embryo first and instructing him on how to use the God Refining Tripod for refining, he would never have been able to create such a terrifying treasure with his own abilities.

Whoo…whoo…whoo…

The nine ghosts glanced at Prince Jade, each emitting a strange laugh. The horrifying Yin evil spirit emanated wildly from them, unstoppable even by formations.

If anyone were outside the Palm Immortal Office, they would notice that the sky above it had changed color.

The influence of the nine Nascent Soul-level wicked ghosts was simply too terrifying!

“What’s happening? What is going on?”

The intense Yin evil spirit finally drew the attention of those in the heavenly jail.

“Li Shengyu! What are you doing?”

A roar of anger resounded from outside the formation.

It was the master of the Palm Immortal Office!

“Doing what? Hahaha!”

Prince Jade roared with laughter, a sense of exhilaration he’d never felt before washing over him.

“Of course it’s to save my father and demolish this damned Da Yuan Dynasty! And to kill you, an old dog who betrayed your master for glory!” Prince Jade howled hatefully at the nine ghosts, his face twisted with rage. “Go! Kill at will!”

“Hehehe…”

The wicked ghosts let out eerie laughs. With Li Shengyu opening the formation, they rushed out wildly toward the outside world.
