Chapter 360 Gifting a Sword
"Hanqiu..."
Wan Liugui's horrified gaze couldn't help but turn towards Li Hanqiu.
And Li Hanqiu...
knew the meaning of that look.
He nodded solemnly in response.
Instantly, Wan Liugui inhaled sharply, his whole body shaking uncontrollably.
"Dao Artifact! Dao Artifact! Dao Artifact!"
Is it true!?
Alkaid...
Could truly refine a Dao Artifact!? Find your next read on My Virtual Library Empire
A Refining Void...
capable of refining a Dao Artifact!?
"Slap!"
At that moment, Wan Liugui couldn't help but slap himself.
"Master, what are you doing?"
Li Hanqiu quickly stepped forward to stop him.
"I really deserve to die."
Full of regret and guilt, Wan Liugui said, "If I had believed from the beginning in Alkaid's ability to refine Dao Artifacts, how could I have let you waste so much time..."
Alkaid glanced at him, but bore no grudges, "Even if I had truly revealed my ability to refine Dao Artifacts back then, the best outcome I could have hoped for was probably being imprisoned by some major sects, forced to refine Dao Artifacts day and night until death. Those more extreme might have searched my soul and refined my spirit on the spot to discover the secret of how I, who am not a Hollow Void, could refine Dao Artifacts. Therefore, keeping it a secret was the best choice."
After speaking, he added, "I am already very grateful that Venerable Wan sided with us at the last moment, repelling Jiang Heavenly Venerable."
"I..."
Wan Liugui was at a loss for words, not knowing what to say.
"It's alright, the most difficult period has already passed. Now, a bright and wonderful future awaits us."
Li Hanqiu said with a smile, "Once Alkaid sells this Dao Artifact, and pushes out the Purple Cloud 31 and Jiuzhou Warship, the operations of the Nine Cauldrons Sect will be completely on track."
Alkaid also smiled and nodded his agreement.
An annual income of several million Pure Yang Great Pills would be enough for the Nine Cauldrons Sect, which doesn't even have a single Hollow Void, to live a life of opulence.
At this time, Li Hanqiu thought of something else, "Just that... Southern Capital is not the Heavenly Dao Sect, and the guests you've invited this time are quite a diverse group. Moreover, those who auction Dao Artifacts are often Refining Void Realm big shots. If they don't abide by the rules..."
"Then that will be a good opportunity to kill the chicken to scare the monkey."
Alkaid spoke calmly, "When I had just advanced to Refining Void, I was able to kill the Heaven-Devouring Demon Emperor who was of the same Void Refinement Realm. Now, after having settled in the Refining Void Realm for some time, both of my core Dao Techniques have improved significantly. Furthermore, with Southern Capital's Capital Dragon Slaying Formation, if any Refining Void dares to misbehave, I don't mind setting an example with them, allowing the world to see whether my power to kill the Demon Emperor is fake or real."
Li Hanqiu, thinking of the City Defense Formation that Alkaid had been strengthening over the years, felt somewhat relieved.
Alkaid may not be able to set up the Slaying Dragon Formation, but he could somewhat understand it.
The reward contribution from Penglai Immortal Sect was almost completely exchanged for precious materials and incorporated into this formation.
The formation's level hadn't increased, and the boost to its power wasn't significant either, but its stability had increased by a notch.
With this formation...
even a Shattered Void would find it difficult to run wild in Southern Capital.
"As for the Jing Family, the Lu Family, and the Li Family, I chose not to deal with them because I hadn't shown enough capabilities. This time, having demonstrated the ability to refine Dao Artifacts, which people can guess, if there still are ignorant Refining Voids that wish to become souls under my sword, then these families will surely withdraw quietly from the Southern Region," Alkaid outlined his plan.
Li Hanqiu nodded in firm agreement.
A Refining Void capable of refining Dao Artifacts!
The Heavenly Dao Sect's Supreme Elders and Peak Masters would think of ways to keep him in the sect rather than dare to act against him. Once Alkaid declares his disappointment in Heavenly Dao Sect and his wish to join another faction, not only the adjacent Taiyi Immortal Sect but even the Three Pure Sanctuaries, known as the foremost among the Ten Great Immortal Paths, will unhesitatingly send several Shattered Voids personally to welcome him and invite him to the Three Pure Sanctuaries.
Alkaid waved his hand.
"No need to try, it's absolutely perfect,"
Qi Sha said without hesitation.
His master had also studied the Dao Technique of the Great Annihilation Sword Qi, and even now, when he had made minor achievements in it, he wasn't confident that his understanding of the technique could surpass his master's mastery.
A Dao Artifact that was custom-made by an Artifact Refiner who had an exceptional understanding of the Dao Technique...
The compatibility could only be described as heaven-defying!
With the boost this Annihilation Sword gave to his Great Annihilation Sword Qi, he could now pose a lethal threat to those Refining Void Realm powerhouses without Dao Artifacts.
"The might of this Dao Artifact in my hands will definitely not be inferior to those Superior Dao Artifacts of non-Destruction Great Paths,"
Qi Sha said with conviction.
Immediately following, he looked excitedly at Alkaid, "My lord... is this... is this really for me?"
"The Dao Artifact is in your hands, could it be fake?"
Alkaid said with a smile.
"Thank you, my lord!"
Qi Sha was moved beyond words.
A Dao Artifact!
And one that so perfectly matched him! It was a help to his future Dao Technique cultivation, breaking through Refining Void, and even Shattered Void realms that was beyond words.
Dao Artifact and Dao Technique are complementary to each other.
And the depth of understanding of the Dao Technique is the core condition for achieving Refining Void, Shattered Void, and even attempting Integrate Dao in the future.
What Alkaid gave was not just a common Dao Artifact!
It was clearly a bright and immeasurable future!
Even if he exhausted his life and shattered his body, he could not repay the favor of this future path to Dao.
"Get used to the coordination between this Dao Artifact and the Great Annihilation Sword Qi quickly. In half a year, the Nine Cauldrons Commerce that I have established will hold a Dao Artifact auction, selling a Void Category offensive Dao Artifact. There will be no shortage of people and powers coming and going. When there are more people, various kinds of troubles will inevitably increase, and you will certainly be busy then,"
Alkaid instructed.
"Rest assured, my lord, I will do my utmost to maintain the order of the Dao Artifact auction,"
Qi Sha stated firmly.
"I trust you. Go now,"
Alkaid waved his hand.
Immediately Qi Sha bowed again and turned to leave.
Following that, Alkaid summoned Ling Ruogu and Chi Yu, entrusting them with the matter of the Dao Artifact auction.
The two of them, upon receiving the news, were no less startled than Wan Liugui had been.
An auction of a Dao Artifact could be explained by a desperate need to gather cultivation resources.
But now, auctioning a second Dao Artifact...
Artifact Sage!
Behind Alkaid undoubtedly stood a supreme Artifact Sage capable of refining Dao Artifacts!
Even the speculation that "Penglai Dao Lord" might be that Artifact Sage once again surged in their minds.
However, no matter who that "Artifact Sage" was, with the support of such an existence, Alkaid's future would become limitless.
For a while, as the two Hollow Voideans felt their hearts aflame, they were also extremely grateful for their decision to follow Alkaid to the Southern Region.
As Li Hanqiu, Wan Liugui, Ling Ruogu, and Chi Yu, as well as the powers behind them, began to publicize and distribute invitations, news of a Void Category offensive Dao Artifact to be auctioned in the Southern Region spread rapidly among the Ten Great Immortal Paths, Three Immortal Martial Sects, and Four Great Immortal Dynasties.
