Watching Lu Qing enter the wooden cabin, a trace of envy appeared in the eyes of Daoist Wubao.
By this time, he was completely certain that Lu Qing had gone towards the ancient tower to hunt those guardian beasts and extract their bloodline.
The wonders of the bloodline extracted from the mutant beasts, he had personally experienced.
The enhancement it provided to the physical body was astonishing, exceeding any spirit pills he knew of.
Unfortunately, he did not possess the ability to hunt Golden Core level mutant beasts as effortlessly as Lu Qing did, like eating or drinking water.
He even reckoned that even if he were given a share of Golden Core level mutant beast bloodline, he might not be able to refine it.
After all, refining a Foundation Establishment level beastās bloodline was already quite taxing for him, with residual evil qi still lingering within him that he hadnāt completely resolved.
If he tried to refine a Golden Core level bloodline, his body might not withstand the invasion of the evil qi before it could be fully enhanced.
So towards Lu Qing, all he could do was be envious.
Inside the wooden cabin, Lu Qing quickly extracted all the Witchās Primordial Blood from the bodies of the four Black Wolf Beasts.
"Little Li, you go first, see if you can refine it," Lu Qing said with a smile, meeting Little Liās expectant gaze.
"Alright!"
Hearing this, Little Li immediately swallowed a wisp of the bloodline and began refining it.
Lu Qing made no move, instead observing quietly from the side, to see if Little Li could refine it smoothly.
Then he saw that after Little Li swallowed the primordial blood, although the body started trembling, the shaking wasnāt severe.
Clearly, the evil qi contained in this Golden Core level primordial blood was still within its tolerance range.
Ultimately, Little Li successfully refined the primordial blood without any danger.
"Ah Qing, my physical body has strengthened a lot, by a full third!"
Upon opening its eyes, Little Li excitedly reported first thing.
Itās noteworthy that previously, after refining Foundation Establishment level primordial blood, it could only enhance its body by a mere tenth at its limit.
Whereas just one wisp of this Golden Core level primordial blood had far exceeded that effect.
"As long as itās effective, refine another wisp of bloodline. The four wisps, weāll divide evenly," Lu Qing smiled.
"However, the evil qi of this Golden Core level primordial blood is also much stronger. Iām afraid if I refine a few more, Iāll be like Mr. Chen, needing some time to resolve the evil qi," Little Li lamented.
"This is not a problem; we can store the bloodline, continue refining after youāve resolved the evil qi."
In the following period, Lu Qing and Little Li refined the remaining primordial blood.
Lu Qingās physical body was enhanced by another two percent, while Little Liās was enhanced by two-thirds.
But Little Li also sensed that if it refined one more wisp of Golden Core level primordial blood, it would need to stop temporarily, spend some days resolving the internal evil qi before continuing.
As for Lu Qing, the evil qi to him was like a gentle breeze, with no real impact.
The only concern was whether the effect of primordial blood had a limit.
He didnāt know at what point the Golden Core initial realm mutant beastsā primordial blood would stop being effective for him.
Fortunately, for now, the Golden Core initial realm mutant beastsā primordial bloodās effect was still strong; he should be able to refine several more shares.
"Just not sure whether those strong figures will discover the secret of the primordial blood."
On this point, Lu Qing was helpless.
Those who could reach this realm were clever individuals, and a bit of a stir would arouse much speculation.
His continuous hunting of guardian beasts was too abnormal, surely drawing attention.
"Seems like next time I hunt mutant beasts, I should be more aggressive, aim to hunt more."
The reason Lu Qing typically killed only one or two guardian beasts each time was to keep his abilities hidden and disguise his strength.
Now, with the changing situation, he needed to alter his plan.
The commotion near the ancient tower didnāt last long before it settled down.
It was unclear if those strong figures had successfully hunted the mutant beasts or discovered anything.
Lu Qing didnāt set off immediately but waited until nightfall to head out quietly.
"Second Senior Brother, Mr. Chen seems to have gone out again,"
reported a Qiankun Sect disciple in charge of alerting when sensing the arrayās fluctuation to Qin Zheng.
"I know, no need to pay attention, you can leave and continue the night watch,"
said Qin Zheng calmly as he opened his eyes from cultivation.
After the disciple left, Qin Zhengās eyes revealed a pensive look.
Lu Qingās continuous trips to the ancient tower to hunt mutant beasts, even he felt the abnormality.
He speculated, Lu Qing was likely not just understanding cultivation techniques; there must be another purpose.
However, since Lu Qing had shown kindness to them, as long as it didnāt endanger the safety of his junior disciples, Qin Zheng did not intend to inquire closely.
So, he turned a blind eye, pretending not to know.
In the darkness, Lu Qing, with Little Li, swiftly traversed through the dense forest to reach the plains.
Although it was pitch black, both Lu Qing and Little Li had the ability to see in the dark.
Moreover, with their current realms, divine soul sensing was sometimes more convenient than eyesight.
Thus, Lu Qing could still see the eighteen guardian beasts standing in the plains.
It was uncertain how many mutant beasts those strong figures had hunted after he left, and how many had been replenished in front of him.
Gazing at the standing guardian beasts, Lu Qingās eyes were calm.
This time, he planned to make a bold move, at least aiming to hunt the nine Golden Core initial realm mutant beasts on the outer perimeter,
If possible, attempt to see if he could kill a mid-Golden Core realm mutant beast.
Upon thinking this, Lu Qing stomped on the ground, expanding his Earth Vein Magnetic Domain.
This time, he deliberately enlarged the domainās scope, directly encompassing the nine outer Golden Core initial realm beasts.
In the next moment, nine roars echoed.
His figure was like a dragon; with one step, he had already reached a Black Wolf Beast, unleashing a punch.
The Black Wolf Beastās roar stopped abruptly, unable to react before its head was smashed with a punch from Lu Qing, killed instantly.
The splattering blood, not yet reaching the ground, was swept up by Lu Qingās divine soul power, along with the corpse, into a Qiankun pouch.
Next, Lu Qing took another step, the ground trembling as the immense power of his physical body maximized his speed.
The body sliced through the air, bursting with thundering sound, carrying a great wave of force to another Black Wolf Beast.
Boom!
With another punch, the second Black Wolf Beastās head exploded. After collecting the corpseās blood, Lu Qing didnāt pause, reaching the third beast in an instant.
Just like that, under the influence of his Earth Vein Magnetic Domain, the slowed-down Golden Core initial realm guardian beasts couldnāt evade Lu Qingās fists.
Almost one punch for each, they were quickly harvested by him.
