Huo Feng's horsetail whisk was called Ming Yue. He did not say why it was called that. He brought Li Yuanqing back to his cave abode and handed the horsetail whisk to him. He sat at the side and closed his eyes to rest.

Li Yuanqing placed the horsetail whisk in front of him and sat cross-legged. He didn't seem to be doing anything, but in his mind, he was constantly flipping through the Immortal World Weapon Refinement Manual he had just obtained.

In that instant, he saw the refinement method and characteristics of the horsetail whisk. According to the introduction, as a top-grade Dharma treasure, it would have a deterrence after refinement.

On the other hand, although Li Yuanqing could feel a powerful force from the horsetail whisk, it was far from the so-called deterrence.

That was why he made the assertion and said that. Fortunately, he was right. However, he needed to find out how to repair it.

Huo Feng opened one eye and looked at Li Yuanqing. That little guy had been like that for a long time. Did he plan to move?

He waved his hand gently and a warm wind blew past Li Yuanqing's face.

“Little guy, you're not planning to waste your time with me, are you?”

At this moment, Li Yuanqing's frown suddenly relaxed. He opened his eyes happily and looked at Huo Feng.

“Found it!”

“What did you find?”

“Senior, although this Dharma treasure has a spirit, it's not sentient. The problem is that this spirit body doesn't have a perfect medium that can fuse into the entire Dharma treasure, so it's difficult to unleash its greatest effect.”

“Oh?” Huo Feng raised his eyebrows slightly and said without changing his expression, “Then according to you, my Dharma treasure has already been crippled. There's no way to save it.”

Li Yuanqing heard that he seemed to want to go back on his word, so he continued, “Senior, this Dharma treasure is a semi-finished product left behind. It hasn't been completed, which means that you should know that there is such a flaw.”

“Really? How could I forget?”

“Generally speaking, if it's a spirit body born from the Dharma treasure itself, there won't be a problem of repelling each other. However, if it's a territory imported from the outside world, it will need the help of a medium even more. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to fuse. Moreover, this process is irreversible. Once it starts, there will be no turning back.”

Li Yuanqing saw Huo Feng's face twitched. He had clearly hit a sore spot.

“Senior, when you started refining, you should have thought that you had already found a suitable medium, but in the end, you didn't succeed, causing you to be stuck in this incomplete position and unable to turn back.”

Li Yuanqing picked up the horsetail whisk again and waved it gently in his hand.

A blurry shadow appeared in midair. This figure was very thin and could not be seen in detail. Only a simple outline was left.

“In my opinion, Senior, you don't have much time left, right?”

As Li Yuanqing spoke, he suddenly felt a huge force coming from Huo Feng's direction. The horsetail whisk in his hand was instantly sucked away and landed in Huo Feng's arms.

Huo Feng's face was ashen as he glared at Li Yuanqing and stood up.

“If you have a way, I will help you. If you don't, don't spout nonsense and go back to where you came from!”

“Senior, don't be anxious. Since I can see the problem, I must have a way to resolve it.”

“Hmph! Junior, you're too arrogant. With your strength, do you think you can resolve it? Are you saying that I've lived for thousands of years for nothing?”

Seeing that Huo Feng was about to flare up, Li Yuanqing took the opportunity to say, “Senior, if you don't believe me, you wouldn't have let me in.”

“When did I say I believed you?”

“As long as I find a material and have that material as the medium, the spirit body can successfully enter this Dharma treasure. At that time, the spirit weapon and it will fuse and nourish each other, and it will naturally recover.”

“Then tell me what the medium you're looking for is.”

“Heavenly Soul Incense!”

Huo Feng's body suddenly froze. He stood there motionless with his back facing Li Yuanqing for a long time.

Li Yuanqing did not know why he reacted, so he could only stand on the spot and wait quietly.

After a long while, Huo Feng finally spoke again.

“Since you say you have such a method, go and find me this Heavenly Soul Incense.”

The thick book in Li Yuanqing's mind was showing a charred charcoal-like object. Below the charcoal was a very huge terrain map. A light spot was flickering slightly.

Li Yuanqing hesitated for a moment and pretended to be troubled. “Senior, do you know that this Heavenly Soul Incense is a very rare item? I'm afraid it will take some effort to find it. I wonder if Senior can make a move first?”

“Take some effort?” Huo Feng turned around and looked at Li Yuanqing in disbelief. He did not know if this kid was too ignorant or if he really had such confidence.

He had searched for this Heavenly Soul Incense for his entire life but could not find it. He finally gave up and chose to spend his last moments with Ming Yue here. However, a kid suddenly appeared in front of him and said that he only needed to put in some effort.

“Where did you find out about the Heavenly Soul Incense?” Huo Feng stepped forward and grabbed Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing did not know why he had a reaction, so he explained, “I once saw it in one of Master's medical books. It said that this thing has the effect of balancing the spirit body.”

“Who is your master? Tell me the truth. Otherwise, I'll tear you into powder and refine you into a puppet!”

“My master is already dead!”

Huo Feng suddenly calmed down. His gaze kept changing as he watched Li Yuanqing.

“Then how do you know the whereabouts of the Heavenly Soul Incense? Can you find the Heavenly Soul Incense with your peak Formation Arrangement Realm strength?”

Only then did Li Yuanqing realize that this fellow had searched everywhere for this material but to no avail.

He smoothed out the clothes in front of him and coughed lightly. He said hesitantly, “At that time, it was a very coincidental opportunity. Moreover, the Heavenly Soul Incense is in a very dangerous place. To be honest, I'm not very confident that I can find it. I can only try it for your sake.”

“Then tell me where it is. I'll find it!”

“Senior!” Li Yuanqing suddenly reminded him, “You've already waited for more than a thousand years. Are you still in a hurry? There are hundreds and thousands of rogue cultivators outside who have been harmed and refined into puppets. Do you want to interfere?”

Huo Feng's eyes, which were originally filled with no desire, suddenly flickered as if they were burning with some kind of flame. He gently picked up the horsetail whisk and placed it on his forearm, rubbing it gently with his right hand.

“Ming Yue.” He called softly, as if calling his lover.

The light on the horsetail whisk flickered slightly, and the hazy figure slowly appeared again.

Li Yuanqing finally understood that the spirit body contained in the horsetail whisk was most likely Huo Feng's former dual cultivation partner. He did not expect this senior to have such deep feelings for her. He had waited for so many years for a soul that had already passed away.

Huo Feng leaned against the spirit body and his lips fluttered as if he was whispering.

Li Yuanqing did not dare to listen and stood at the side obediently.

Not long after, Huo Feng put away the horsetail whisk and hid it in his wide sleeve.

“I know you're lying to me!” Huo Feng stared straight into Li Yuanqing's eyes.

“I…”

“But I don't care.”

Huo Feng's words confused Li Yuanqing.

“As long as there's still a trace of hope, I won't give up. Since you're willing to tell me such news, it doesn't matter where you found out about the Heavenly Soul Incense. I'll help you.”

After saying these words, he walked into the cave.

Li Yuanqing did not expect things to go so smoothly. He took out his book. Under the Heavenly Soul Incense, the light spot was still flickering in the complicated terrain map.

If he guessed correctly, this was the location of the Heavenly Soul Incense. This book was really useful. It had a location for such rare resources.

Huo Feng did not look like a bad person. After this matter was done, he would run over and help him find the Heavenly Soul Incense. It could be considered as returning a favor.

Li Yuanqing made up his mind and put away the thick book again. At this moment, a very hot aura came from the depths of the cave abode and hit Li Yuanqing's face.

This aura was wrapped in very dense fire-attribute spiritual energy. The spiritual energy was so dense that it could barely melt. When it smashed into a person, it was as if they were scratched by a knife.

Li Yuanqing was secretly surprised. What level of flame was it to have such high strength? He could feel it so clearly even from afar.

“Come in and help!”

Li Yuanqing suddenly heard Huo Feng's voice and followed it. He passed through an aisle at the back and went down a long and narrow staircase before arriving at a huge empty space in the mountainside.

In the center of this empty space was a huge furnace that was hundreds of feet tall.

Below the roof was a circular hole. At this moment, blue-purple flames spewed out endlessly from the hole and hit the bottom of the cauldron.

“The art of weapon refinement is to reinforce and restrain each other!”

Huo Feng muttered.

“That Divine Fire Sect is good at the fire attribute. The puppets made of it should also be strong in the fire attribute. However, they use the Yin fire. The corpse refinement technique is a demonic technique and has never been touched by any Yang energy. We only need to use the Extreme Yang Fire to surround and annihilate all of them.”

Li Yuanqing stood at the side and watched as Huo Feng's hands flipped up and down. He could not help but nod repeatedly.

When Huo Feng stopped, the flames below gradually calmed down, and the fog rising from the cauldron slowly dissipated.

When the temperature of the cauldron dropped by more than half, Huo Feng waved his hand and took out forty-nine golden rods.

These rods were all identical and very neat. They were stacked by Li Yuanqing's feet into a small pile.

“This Heavenly Thunder Wood contains the purest power of heavenly lightning. Use it as a flagpole and put on a flag with pure Yang fire. With a wave of your hand, you can summon thousands of lightning flames. As long as those evil creatures are touched, they will be reduced to ashes.”

As he spoke, he took out a pile of golden triangular flags from his sleeve.

These small flags seemed to have a very dense fire-attribute spiritual energy. Just by landing there, they burned people.

Those wooden rods rolled up with the flags one by one and quickly turned into triangular flags.

After Huo Feng finished preparing all of this, he stuffed the flags he had refined into Li Yuanqing's arms and rushed out.

“Senior, what else do you need to do?”

“You said it yourself, but you don't look anxious. Hurry up and follow me!”

Li Yuanqing followed Huo Feng's footsteps and shuttled through his cave abode. Finally, he arrived at a remote secret room in the corner.

There was a small array in the secret room.

Huo Feng raised his hand and placed a spirit stone into the array. He pulled Li Yuanqing over and the two of them jumped into the array and disappeared in an instant.

When the image in front of Li Yuanqing flashed, they had already left Changping Mountain and arrived at the wooden house in a small bamboo forest.

Huo Feng had already walked out of the house and was standing in the small courtyard. He was holding a compass and calculating something.

A stream of energy suddenly flew out of the compass and entered the sky, hiding in the clouds.

Li Yuanqing did not know what he's doing, so he stood in the courtyard with Huo Feng and waited.

Not long after, a light suddenly flashed in the sky. A hearty laugh was the first to arrive, followed by a familiar figure.

“Old thing, I knew you wouldn't be able to hold it in. If you don't do anything about this, I'm afraid it will be as unbearable as a hundred claws scratching your heart.”

Wang Lan's face was red again. In just a short while, he had drunk a lot of wine.

However, he looked like he was in a good mood. He looked at Huo Feng and Li Yuanqing excitedly.

“You're quite good, kid. You have quite a lot of tricks. You can convince this old fellow in such a short period of time. Your ability is not simple.”

Wang Lan looked at Li Yuanqing and praised him.

Li Yuanqing only smiled. Huo Feng, on the other hand, had a cold expression on his face. He looked at Wang Lan and said, “Stop being so glib-tongued. Since you're the one who found me, you'll be the vanguard. I'll cover for you.”

“That's easy. As long as you're here, I definitely don't have to worry about anything. Although the Divine Fire Sect has some ability, they're still just decorations in front of you.”

Huo Feng took a deep look at Wang Lan and then looked at Li Yuanqing at the side. “You don't usually care about the world, but you're like this today. You're serious. I think you've accepted a lot of benefits from him.”

“Hey!” Wang Lan swung the wine gourd and said, “What benefits are you talking about? I just made some connections with this young friend and he looks more pleasing to the eye.”

“Hmph! Then I'll look forward to how deep your relationship is. Don't run away again!”

Sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you very much!
