"Tengxie, sit down."
The study of Empress Jiu Huo.
Jiu Huo looked at his eldest son with a gratified smile on his face.
After slaying the mad dragon Lin Wushuang to establish his authority, and reaching an agreement with Su Huanzhen, Jiu Huo quickly stabilized the situation after the Demon Lord's death. Jiu Huo believed that no one could have done better than Teng Xie.
She couldn't be more proud of her eldest son's excellence.
Oh, she's quite something. With such achievements, becoming the Demon Lord is a natural progression.
After exchanging a few words, Tengxie inquired about Jiuhuo, and Jiuhuo praised Tengxie before getting down to business.
"Tengxie, what Hao Kunlun said reminds me of the Fault Line."
Jiu Huo already has a plan to repair the fault line: find a rare object called "Casting Heaven Stone" and combine it with "Yin Yang Bone" to create something to join the fault line.
"Tengxie, as you know, the Demon Dragon is a giant beast with an incredibly large life force. It was originally able to heal its own injuries. The problem is that the fault line has broken the space. Only objects with dual attributes can enter the fault line, and only objects with dual attributes can repair the fault line."
"After thinking about it, I realized that we would need to take a life form with innate duality, pure energy, and extremely high quality, extract its bones, and fuse them together with the extremely yang and intense Heaven-Forging Stone. Sending this mixture into the fractured space would allow the Heaven-Forging Stone and the Demon Dragon's essence to form duality, enabling the Demon Dragon to penetrate the fractured space, connect its body into one, and thus unite."
"Yes, this method is indeed feasible; however, both Yin-Yang Bones and Heaven-Forging Stones are extremely rare."
Teng Xie actually knew that the Divine Blade Tianqi and the Holy Halberd Shentan were forged from the Heaven-Forging Stone.
And Yin-Yang bones.
During the Bloodlust Rebellion, Buddha Sword Fenshuo fought a final battle against the ultimate demon of the Bloodlust, and was possessed by an evil force called "Jabei".
Later, when Fo Jian Fen Shuo tried to force Xie Bing Wei out of his body, he inadvertently forced out a Buddhist relic that was tainted by Xie Bing Wei's power. This relic entered the womb of a female ape, and the female ape thus gave birth to a baby ape.
This ape-man was born with both the power of a holy Buddha and the power of an evil soldier; his bones were yin and yang bones.
This ape wandered the world and was adopted by Jin Baoyin, who named him Yuan'er. He also accidentally entered the Nest of the Skull-Viewing Ground and obtained a cultivation method of the Crouching Dragon Journey.
After Jin Baoyin's death, Yuan'er was taken away by the hermit "Dian Tianji" who lived in seclusion on the Star River Cloud Ladder. After a while, Yuan'er will be able to be reborn and fully transform into human form, and once again roam the martial world.
As many memories flashed through Teng Xie's mind, Jiu Huo said, "As long as we have a goal, we can search for it slowly. The Bitter Realm is vast and rich in resources, and I believe it must contain what the Demon Realm needs."
Teng Xie nodded, but then spoke up, "Your Majesty, I've been researching divine artifacts recently, and I've suddenly had an idea that might serve as a backup plan."
"Oh? Teng Xie, what are your thoughts?"
Tengxie flipped his hand, and a surge of black energy emerged from his palm, transforming into a black ring that resembled both crystal and jade. He then transformed the ring into another surge of black energy, which flowed toward Jiuhuo's index finger.
Jiu Huo saw the black energy condense into a ring on her finger, then turn back into a wisp of black energy and merge into her finger.
She sensed the cool sensation lingering on her fingers and couldn't help but feel curious. "This thing is truly wondrous. Is this the effect of your replica artifact integrating into your flesh and blood?"
Teng Xie nodded. "Your Majesty, you can try unleashing a burst of finger energy."
With a slight exertion of her internal energy, Jiu Huo pointed a finger, and with a soft hissing sound, a deep hole was punched into the pillar she was pointing at.
"It has increased the attack power by about 10%."
Jiu Huo looked at her fingers with slight surprise. She was no ordinary expert. Such a small object could amplify the power of her moves by nearly 10%, which was quite remarkable.
"This is just my first attempt at making it. If I had better materials, better methods, and better tools, the power of the crafted item could even surpass that of a divine artifact."
For example, Yin-Yang Bones and Heaven-Forging Stones, plus top-tier divine forging masters and the finest forging tools.
"This... Tengxie, you intend to refine the fragments that connect the broken parts into a magical artifact?"
But what's the point? Adding a piece of equipment to Xenoblade Chronicles? That's a bit redundant.
"As the Queen just said, the Otherworldly Dragon is a realm-level behemoth that forms its own world. Its vitality is immense. The object that connects the fractured parts is just a catalyst, that is, the fracture is joined together. Once the dragon's body is healed, the object that connects the parts will be useless... It might even become the dragon's weakness. It is an implant of the dragon."
"Then why not refine it into a magical artifact first, so that it can be used for other purposes after the fracture is repaired? The Yin-Yang Bone and the Heaven-Forging Stone are both rare and precious materials."
"Um……"
After a moment of contemplation, Jiu Huo nodded slightly. She felt that Teng Xie's words made sense, and she didn't mind, or rather, she was happy for Teng Xie to become stronger.
If a demon doesn't want to become stronger, is it still a demon?
The War General did not want to become the Demon Lord, nor did he want to become the king who unified the three races, which is why Jiu Huo was disappointed.
only.
"Tengxie, your idea is novel and sounds quite plausible. However, reconnecting the fault line is the top priority for the Demon Realm. Yin-Yang Bone and Heaven-Forging Stone are extremely rare in the world, so there is no room for error. This matter must be handled with utmost care."
"That's certainly the case, Your Majesty. Rest assured, I will provide a more detailed plan and samples made with other materials, and then we will discuss it further."
"Yes, Teng Xie, you are as thoughtful as ever, so I am relieved."
"It's a pity the Wolf Lord is on the other side of the fault line, otherwise we wouldn't need to search for a skilled blacksmith... By the way, does the Queen still have any Blood Wolf demon blood here?"
The Blood Wolf Clan of Tengxie is a branch of the Ghost Clan. They are not only brave and skilled in battle, but their blood can also enhance the quality of metals. Their wolf lord, Taoshan·Bujianque, is a master blacksmith from the Demon Realm.
The Wild God Slash of Yama Hanba, the Crimson Fire Spear of Jiu Huo, the Zhu Yan Sword of Tunfo Tongzi, the Wolf Smoke Halberd of Shesheng Tongzi, and the Dao Yi Xie Nai of Teng Xie were all made by him. The Wild God Slash is a divine weapon that is no less than the divine sword and holy halberd. The other weapons are also of top quality.
Jiu Huo shook her head. She sighed as she brought up the matter. "Most of the Second Palace was also destroyed after the fault line. The most devastated were the evil race... I only have one sample of demon wolf blood here. If you want to use it, you can take it."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
After talking for a while, Tengxie took his leave and left. As soon as he returned to the First Hall, a sorcerer rushed over.
"Reporting to General Qi, the secret technique for monitoring Wolongxing has been activated; Wolongxing has made a move."
Teng Xie's heart skipped a beat. He wondered if His Holiness the Pope had considered using a secret method to shield the Sharp Senses.
He activated his secret technique to sense the situation briefly, then smiled slightly, realizing there was nothing there.
However, Wolongxing did not find Beichen Yuanhuang this time... but he did find Beichen Yuanhuang.
Just as Teng Xie was about to go over and take a look, a mysterious energy fluctuation occurred, and a letter flew by. He caught it, opened it, and saw that someone had invited him to go and see the excitement together.
