Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 1034

Within Qin Yu's soul space, a figure lifted a hand and covered her mouth. She yawned and looked down at Qin Yu. After blinking her eyes, she wrinkled her nose.

'I truly regret taking you in as my disciple. How can so many things happen to you every day and you can even disturb me?

'I've already slept for a long time. If it weren't for that'¦hum hum, I would rather have seen you be eaten up by someone to avoid you constantly disturbing me!'

She stood right there, whispering out loud. But, the fire dragon didn't discover her existence at all. It seemed that as long as she didn't want to, even if she stood right in front of someone they would only think there was air before them.

Suddenly, space rippled and the little blue lamp appeared. It transformed into a figure that bowed deeply.

'I greet the Ruler!'

The woman glanced at him. 'You've given birth to a consciousness? It appears your size isn't too small. Have you swallowed other fragments?'

The little blue lamp was silent for a moment. 'It's just luck. I haven't encountered any other fragments yet.'

'Rise. After all, to a degree you can be considered far more noble than me. And right now, I am no longer a Ruler.'

The woman waved her hand, her demeanor casual.

The little blue lamp shook his head, 'No, you are a true Ruler.' He looked at Qin Yu's soul, his eyes filled with emotion, 'I've already sensed that he has a great destiny and he will have amazing achievements in the future, yet I never expected that he had the qualifications to be accepted as a disciple by you. With that, I can feel at ease.'

The woman coldly sneered, 'Don't even think of shifting any responsibility onto me. The reason I helped was because this disturbance was too great, otherwise I wouldn't have woken up. Moreover, you should understand that in my current condition I cannot descend into the world too frequently. So from now on, you will have to look after him yourself. Or make this boy be a bit more discreet and stop stirring up trouble. If there comes a day when he plays himself to death'¦I won't care at all. After all, their family is large and there is much work and many disciples. Things will be troublesome for you.'

The little blue lamp cupped his hands together. 'You're right. I'll pass your words on to him.'

'Stop right there, don't try to test me. Although I have accepted him as a disciple, he cannot know until he has undergone the tests. You understand the rules, so don't speak too much and cause trouble'¦hum hum, don't you want to understand why I'm in this current condition?'

The little blue lamp's heart chilled. He nodded and didn't ask anything else. 'Since he has you taking care of him, I won't stay any longer. After all, if my existence is discovered, things will get far more troublesome.'

Space fluctuated and he vanished from sight.

The woman was stunned for a moment. She rubbed her eyebrows and said, 'You sure run away fast enough.'

She lifted a hand and drew a stroke down once more.

Shua '

Sword light flashed. The black and white fog that surrounded Qin Yu was cut in half once again.

'Ahh!' The fire dragon's scream came from within the fog, 'Who is it, who is it!?'

It hadn't sensed anyone's aura at all. This sword light emerged from thin air and was terrifyingly powerful, even able to injure its source.

After two continuous sword strikes, its strength had been greatly damaged. It was less than a third of what it was before.

The woman ignored the fire dragon's screams. She looked at Qin Yu's soul that was wrapped in fog and said, 'I have already put out two sword strikes. If you still cannot survive this, you are destined to die and you can only complain about your own uselessness.'

A moment later, a translucent dragon's head appeared and bit at Qin Yu's soul. But just as it moved, it was cut apart by another sword light.

Puff '

Another half of the fog was directly annihilated.

The woman curled her lips with disdain. 'Useless, just useless. It's just a small and weak soul, yet you cannot even deal with it. You might as well find a block of tofu and smash your head in with it to avoid disgracing me in the future.'

She completely forgot about how she said Qin Yu's life and death completely relied on himself and she wouldn't help anymore.

As expected, a woman's words couldn't be trusted and the more beautiful they were the more unreliable they were.

If the fire dragon knew of all of this, it would have spat out blood in grief and roared into the skies, 'You don't have a bottom line at all!'

And in fact, she didn't seem to have any bottom line at all. Because with this sword, the woman slashed out three more times.

Of the originally huge mass of fog, only a thin layer was left behind, barely wrapping around Qin Yu. A pale fire dragon phantom howled in anger and unwillingness, yet it wasn't able to change the current situation at all.

Since ancient times, regardless of the time or place, challenging others with one's background was inevitable. Qin Yu originally didn't have any background at all, but since he somehow meandered his way into becoming this woman's disciple, he suddenly gained a golden thigh, and its purity was of the highest degree!

Even though she said disdainful words, she was actually very satisfied with this disciple. In particular, after discovering Qin Yu had obtained the approval of a part of a Ruler's Mark, this satisfaction only increased.

While a Ruler's Mark was something dispensable to her, it was indeed the key that led to the heights of the Great Dao. If someone couldn't even obtain the key, what did it matter how amazing or shockingly talented they were? Sometimes, luck was far more important than all else.

In the eyes of this woman, her disciple whose cultivation was disappointingly low had a frightened amount of luck.

If it weren't for this, how could she help again and again? Because there was some truth in what she said before.

For instance, in her current state she couldn't easily descend. And even if she could descend, there was a strict limit to the number of times she could help.

In a short period of time, she had sent out six sword strikes. Even if it was her, she needed to pay a considerable price'¦of course, if it was just slaying the fire dragon, she wouldn't have needed to go through so much trouble. A single explosion of sword might was enough to send it beyond any hope of redemption.

The reason she sent out sword strike after sword strike was to help Qin Yu maintain as much of the fire dragon's strength as possible. Only like this could he obtain the greatest advantage after swallowing it.

Even though it wasn't stated out loud, the fire dragon soon came to realize what Qin Yu's teacher was planning. It felt fear and desperation, and even some rage.

Although it hadn't yet sensed who attacked or where they came from, if this person had such power and could accomplish this all so easily, it wasn't hard to guess their status.

Ruler!

Only a supreme Ruler could play with him as if he were a toy in their hand.

But while a Ruler could kill him, they could forget feeding him into Qin Yu's belly as if he was just a buffet.

He might not be able to escape, but he could choose to end his life here.

In any case, the fire dragon wouldn't necessarily die'¦it had to be known that a part of its soul was condensed from the Abyssal King's source.

And the Abyssal King had obtained the approval of the abyss' will; it was nearly impossible for it to be slain. Even if its soul was turned to dust, after long years of gestation it would eventually be reborn within the abyss.

Even if success wasn't guaranteed, the opportunity was there.

The eyes of the fire dragon that wandered through the fog exploded with resolve. Then, a terrifying aura erupted from its body.

The woman suddenly clapped her hands, joy in her eyes, 'Caught you!'

Bang '

An invisible strength instantly arrived, suppressing the fog. The fire dragon phantom within the fog was frozen in place.

Right now, its scales were cracked, exposing the body below that was covered in fine lines and textures.

Broken and not broken, standing on the edge of life and death, this was the current state of the fire dragon.

Its eyes widened as if it felt the arrival of something incomparably frightening. It crazily struggled, wanting to flee. But unfortunately, facing the suppression of this boundless strength, all of its efforts were futile.

'You little thing, sometimes being too smart will harm you instead. If you didn't decide to explode yourself and reveal your life mark, I would have had to expend some effort if I wanted my disciple to eat you up. Now that you're useless, be a good little boy and disappear for me.'

With a flick, the light in the fire dragon's eyes quickly faded. Soon, all that was left was a shell.

Rumble rumble '

The transformed abyssal city began to violently shake and roll, as if a terrifying creature buried deep beneath it was awakening from slumber. The depleted abyssal energy gushed out once more and flooded every inch of the world.

The woman looked up at the pitch black skies, a dignified look on her face. But her lips were curved up in a smile, and there was even some excitement there.

'Really, you are still so brainless. This is the world of the living, not a place where you can posture and show off your power. You dare to descend here with your will? It seems that after not fighting for so many years, you have forgotten my initial methods'¦originally, I had less than a 10% assurance and it could only be considered an attempt, but now that you've arrived, as long as I cut down this will I can increase my chances.'

She lifted a hand and grasped forward. She clearly grabbed nothing, but she actually gripped onto something hard and ice cold. The temperature in the air wildly fell and strong winds howled in sorrow.

It was like the heavens and earth had sensed that a terrifying power was about to emerge. This power was terrifying, enough to cause great harm to the heavens and earth itself!

She lifted a hand and cut forward. The woman's actions weren't fast and one could see her wrist turn. But the moment her hand came down, a shocking sword light rose. It was like a torrent rising into the skies, breaking through the horizon.

It was just one sword strike, but the pitch black skies were split in half. The endlessly tumbling abyssal energy was dispersed.

Hou '

An enraged roar came from the dissipated abyssal energy, filled with deep hate and unwillingness. Intense fluctuations of will swept through the entire city, causing everyone surviving cultivators in the city to faint.

The woman shot into the skies. After several breaths of time she came back. A shiny black light was grasped in her palm. It was like liquid and also a living creature and it tried to escape. But her five slender and fair fingers were like a prison, making escape impossible.

She looked down at this thing and her eyes flashed with a strange light. She really had succeeded'¦.

In front of her, the fire dragon with its empty eyes shattered and disappeared like a bubble.

Abyssal source. Even if it was only a small part, in terms of value, it was extremely precious even to her.

Hesitation flashed in her eyes. She fell into thought for a moment before shaking her head. 'In the vast world, everything is born for a reason. This thing is born for a reason and if I were to keep it, it would be senseless. Whatever. Since this is born because of you, then I'll give it to you. However, for something this good, I can't just give it to you in vain. You'll have to do something for me.'

She looked down at the unconscious Qin Yu and her eyes sparkled with excitement and anticipation.
