Chapter 338: Collecting the Jade Light me


    ?


    Trantor: Cinder Trantions


    Feng Qi flipped his palm, revealing a jade vial in his hand.


    He cautiously nced at Song Wen, seeing that Song Wen showed no reaction.


    He then opened the jade vial and took out a few recovery pills, swallowing them without hesitation.


    The pills he consumed were meant to restore his spiritual power.


    As soon as the pills entered his abdomen, he eagerly began to operate his spiritual power to refine the pills.


    "Elder Feng, we had an agreement: all your spiritual items belong to me. You are taking recovery pills now, which should also belong to me," Song Wen''s voice suddenly rang out.


    While silently refining the pills, Feng Qi smiled in reply, "Just a few pills; I assume Elder Wu won''t mind."


    Song Wen said, "A few pills are indeed insignificant. Elder Feng, you''ve taken the recovery pills; hand over your storage ring."


    Feng Qi looked at the storage ring on his finger, hesitating slightly.


    "What''s the matter? Elder Feng, do you want to back out?" Song Wen asked.


    "Here you go."


    Feng Qi took off the storage ring and tossed it to Song Wen.


    The situation was pressing, and he had no choice but to yield.


    However, Song Wen did not catch the storage ring; instead, he used his spiritual power to control it, levitating it a hundred meters away.


    "I swear on my soul..."


    ording to the agreement he just made with Song Wen, Feng Qi was about to issue his soul oath when he was suddenly interrupted by Song Wen.


    "Elder Feng, wait! You still have spiritual items that you haven''t given me."


    Feng Qi looked bewildered. "All my spiritual items are in the storage ring; what other items could I possibly have?"


    "Of course, there''s the ancient ding and the Jade Light me in front of you."


    Feng Qi was taken aback.


    "What! You want the Jade Light me? That''s impossible!"


    The Jade Light me was his life-saving item. Without it, he would lose any leverage to negotiate with Song Wen.


    Song Wen replied, "I can swear a soul oath first. As long as you hand over the Jade Light me, I will not harm your life and will allow you to leave safely."


    "Is that true?" Feng Qi asked.


    "Absolutely, there''s no deception... or concealment."


    As he spoke thest word, Song Wen''s tone suddenly became grave.


    A chilling aura of killing intent spread out.


    Arge amount of blood mist began to rise from Song Wen''s body.


    The sudden change caused Feng Qi''s face to drastically change.


    "Wu Sheng, you''re not harboring good intentions. In that case, we''ll die together!"


    Feng Qi''s face twisted with rage as he shouted hysterically.


    He had no idea what the blood mist that suddenly surged from Song Wen was, nor did he understand what kind of technique Song Wen was employing.


    What he did know was that Song Wen would certainly unleash a thunderous strike next.


    The storage ring had already fallen into Song Wen''s hands, and he could no longer retrieve any spiritual artifacts to defend himself.


    Given his current state of spiritual power, he couldn''t maintain any defensive artifacts for long to contend with Song Wen.


    Thus, he made a resolute decision in his heart.


    Since Song Wen was determined to put him to death, he wouldn''t spare Song Wen either.


    He drained all the remaining spiritual power within him, pouring it all into the ancient ding without reservation.


    The golden mes within the ancient ding suddenly erupted with brilliance.


    Feng Qi pushed both hands toward the ancient ding with great force.


    The ancient ding shot out, racing toward Song Wen.


    As it was still a hundred meters away from Song Wen, the ancient ding suddenly tipped over.


    The Jade Light me slid out from within the ancient ding.


    Originally, there was only one cauldron of Jade Light me, but once it left the ancient ding,


    it seemed to have lost some kind of restraint.


    Like an uncontrolled wildfire, it spread rapidly, sweeping out in all directions.


    Song Wen''s position was also well cared for.


    The golden mes surged like a torrent, racing toward Song Wen.


    Seeing the Jade Light me about to engulf Song Wen, Feng Qi''s face suddenly brightened


    with joy.


    The blood mist surrounding Song Wen became thicker, yet he had not cast any spells or activated any techniques.


    At this moment, it was already toote for Song Wen tounch an attack.


    No attack could break through the sprawling Jade Light me.


    Now was his best chance to escape.


    As for whether Song Wen could survive the burning of the Jade Light me, he had no time to


    consider that.


    Just as he prepared to activate his escape technique, he realized his spiritual power waspletely depleted.


    Fortunately, he still had some pills in his body that had not been fully refined, and he had a


    vial of recovery pills in his hand.


    He quickly began to refine the pills.


    Just then, he noticed something.


    Song Wen, who was about to be swallowed by the Jade Light me, suddenly vanished into


    the blood mist, disappearing without a trace.


    What startled him even more was that the vanished Song Wen reappeared right in front of him


    the next moment.


    He was only a meter away!


    In Song Wen''s right hand, there was suddenly a long sword.


    At that moment, Feng Qi had no storage ring left to produce any treasures and waspletely


    drained of spiritual power.


    He was utterly powerless to resist.


    Song Wen extended the long sword forward, effortlessly piercing through Feng Qi''s chest.


    With a gentle twist of his right hand holding the sword, Feng Qi''s chest was instantly crushed.


    "You..."


    Feng Qi stared at Song Wen, as if wanting to say something, but he only managed to utter one


    word before his breath left him.


    Song Wen wasted no time; he pressed his hand against Feng Qi''s forehead and began to cast


    the soul search technique.


    During the process of using the soul search technique, he couldn''t help but nce back at the


    raging Jade Light me.


    The Jade Light me was quite powerful; it would be a pity if he couldn''t collect it.


    He could only hope to find a method to gather it from Feng Qi''s memories.


    The soul searching went smoothly; Song Wen learned from Feng Qi''s memories that by


    activating the ancient ding and using the fire control technique, he could retrieve the Jade


    Light me.


    The ancient ding was a high-grade spiritual artifact, and since Feng Qi was dead, it became an ownerless item, making it simple to refine, though it would take about a day.


    As for the fire control technique, there was a jade slip in Feng Qi''s storage ring that recorded a


    secret method called The Supreme Fire Control True Secret.


    The Supreme Fire Control True Secret was extremely profound andplicated, and it was absolutely impossible for Song Wen to cultivate it to sess in a short time.


    However, from the fragmentary memories obtained through the soul search, Song Wen


    understood that he only needed to retrieve the Jade Light me, and he didn''t have to fully


    comprehend The Supreme Fire Control True Secret.


    He only needed to grasp the method for collecting fire.


    Song Wen was notpletely ignorant of fire control techniques.


    When refining pills, it was necessary to control the furnace fire.


    Song Wen instructed the Sacred Gu to guard the upstream and downstream areas.


    He was multitasking, refining the ancient ding whileprehending the fire controln/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    technique.


    The process went rtively smoothly. Two dayster, Song Wen finished his meditation.


    He began to attempt to collect the Jade Light me.


    The Jade Light me, like a rootless duckweed, was not difficult to gather back.


    After more than ten attempts, Song Wen managed to retrieve the Jade Light me into the


    ancient ding.


    However, the collected Jade Light me had shrunk significantly.


    Originally the size of a fist, the Jade Light me was now only as big as a thumb.


    After two days of continuous burning without any replenishment, the Jade Light me had


    consumed too much energy.


    Moreover, Song Wen''s fire control technique was not yet proficient, causing him to waste a lot


    during the collection of the Jade Light me.


    Even so, Song Wen was extremely satisfied.


    As long as he could retain the seed of the Jade Light me, there would always be a way to


    cultivate it back to its former strength.


    Song Wen recalled the Sacred Gu and turned to leave the ce.
