Chapter 498: Chapter 327: Lu Qing’s Threat, Successful Refinement, Wei Xinghe Breaks Through

Wei Mansion’s underground chamber.

When Lu Qing meditated and his heart and spirit entered the Leaving Fire Tripod,

Wei Shanhai was in a state of constant anxiety,

because the Leaving Fire Tripod had become incredibly unstable.

Its powerful aura fluctuated wildly, rising and falling without pause.

He truly feared that in the next moment, it might explode and send the entire Wei Mansion soaring into the sky.

Fortunately, the situation that Wei Shanhai worried about never occurred.

As more time passed with Lu Qing in meditation, the aura of the Leaving Fire Tripod began to stabilize gradually.

Eventually, it became very calm, without a trace of its previous violence.

“Could it be that Young Master Lu is about to successfully refine it?”

Upon seeing this, Wei Shanhai revealed a hint of joy in his eyes.

The elder doctor beside him also showed a slight movement in his expression.

However, inside the Leaving Fire Tripod, Lu Qing listened to the last two conditions from the middle-aged man and shook his head.

“Senior Yan, I cannot agree to your last two conditions.”

The middle-aged man paused, looking at Lu Qing in disbelief, “You say you won’t agree?”

“Senior, you want me to relax some restrictions on the Leaving Fire Tripod, and agree that you will only take action three times a year at most, the rest of the time I must not disturb your secluded cultivation. Please forgive me, but I cannot comply.”

Lu Qing spoke calmly.

A hint of coldness appeared in his eyes as well.

This Artifact Spirit of the Leaving Fire Tripod was overestimating itself.

The first requirement he could understand, but the last two conditions treated him like a servant.

The numerous restrictions upon the Leaving Fire Tripod were originally placed by the Li Huo Sect to limit the Artifact Spirit and prevent it from escaping their control.

How could he possibly willingly weaken this safeguard?

And as for acting only three times a year and remaining in seclusion the rest of the time—that was ridiculous.

Lu Qing carried the inheritance of Li Huo Sect, and the Leaving Fire Tripod was of great use to him.

How could he possibly use it only three times a year?

Did this “Yan” think that he could dictate such unreasonable conditions?

“Boy, think carefully. If you don’t agree to these three conditions, there is no way I will relinquish control of the Leaving Fire Tripod for you to easily refine it.

When the time comes, even if you spend hundreds of years, you may not be able to refine the Leaving Fire Tripod.

Why waste so much time over these trivial conditions?

The spiritual energy has only recently recovered, and everyone is striving to advance in their cultivation.

In the path of cultivation, one step ahead means leading at every step.

The Leaving Fire Tripod is considered a Spiritual Artifact, highly precious even in the previous Cultivation Era.

Generally, only the powerful Immortal Sects or those with a Primordial Spirit who possess Great Divine Power could own it.

For you, merely a Qi Refining Realm cultivator, to even have a chance to handle a Spiritual Artifact is an unimaginable opportunity.

If you could master it soon, it would be greatly beneficial to your cultivation.

Why risk losing much for the sake of so little, and refuse my conditions, thus blocking your own path of cultivation and shutting out this tremendous opportunity?”

The middle-aged man tried to persuade Lu Qing with emotion and reason.

But Lu Qing merely smiled faintly.

“Senior, there’s no need to say more. Regardless, I will only agree to the first condition.

The other two are non-negotiable.

At most, I promise that if the Leaving Fire Tripod could one day reach the rank of a Top-grade Spiritual Artifact,

and you, Senior, achieve Spiritual Perfection and qualify to leave your cage, I will set you free.

I will find a suitable physical body for you to become a true living creature.

Beyond that, any other conditions are not open for discussion.”

Seeing how resolute Lu Qing was, the middle-aged man’s eyes narrowed.

“So you’re saying there’s no room for negotiation?”

“That’s correct.”

The atmosphere around the middle-aged man grew silent as he stared intently at Lu Qing.

“Senior, don’t always think about using your control over the Leaving Fire Tripod to threaten me.”

Sensing the hostile aura emanating from the middle-aged man, Lu Qing’s expression did not change; instead, he spoke slowly and deliberately.

“Although the Leaving Fire Tripod is precious, I am not necessarily bound to obtain it now.

There are other Spiritual Artifacts in this world.”

Having said this, Lu Qing’s thoughts moved slightly, and a wisp of energy from the Qiankun Qi Bag on his physical body outside was sent into the Leaving Fire Tripod.

“What is this….?” Realizing the nature of this energy wisp, the middle-aged man’s eyes widened instantly. “The Qiankun Qi Bag?!”

“That’s right, the Qiankun Qi Bag,” Lu Qing said lightly. “Senior Yan, although the grade of the Qiankun Qi Bag is slightly lower than the Leaving Fire Tripod,

it is entirely under my control.

True, my current level of Cultivation Realm makes it difficult to force the refinement of the Leaving Fire Tripod,

but in three to five years, with the help of the Qiankun Qi Bag, what realm do you think I could reach, Senior?

By that time, how much could you obstruct me?”

The middle-aged man’s face flickered between shades of emotion.

Originally, he thought that by exploiting Lu Qing’s desire for the Leaving Fire Tripod, he could control him and negotiate terms.

But now that Lu Qing also possessed another Spiritual Artifact, the situation was entirely different.

More importantly, the words that Lu Qing had just spoken were irrefutable.

Being able to cause Tribulation Clouds and overcome the Heavenly Tribulation shortly after the resurgence of spiritual energy marked Lu Qing as an unbelievable genius, destined to carry the fortune of heaven and earth.

For such a favored individual, the pace of cultivation was unimaginable.

After three to five years, he truly couldn’t predict what realms Lu Qing might reach.

“It seems the Senior has understood.”

Seeing the expressions change on the middle-aged man’s face, Lu Qing smiled slightly.
