Forging a Law Treasure and Recovering Lost Territory

The newly arrived Crimson Zheng Beast also possessed the strength of the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage.

Qin Fei became increasingly vigilant and quickly distanced himself from Jumang.

He had fought the Crimson Zheng before, and although he hadn't been at a disadvantage, he couldn't defeat it for a while.

After all, his opponent was a genuine Foundation Establishment Middle Stage. Fortunately, neither he nor Jumang were pushovers, which is why they fought to a standstill.

Within the Foundation Establishment realm, the strength differences between each level are enormous.

If it were an ordinary Foundation Establishment Early Stage, let alone just two people, even three or five of them might not be a match for this Crimson Zheng Beast.

It's a pity that the Iron Guard wasn't there; otherwise, Qin Fei was confident he could have killed this monster.

But now that a Crimson Zheng has arrived, victory is clearly impossible.

However, Qin Fei was not afraid; if he wanted to leave, the other party couldn't stop him.

"I am Wuyao, my fellow Daoists. Please calm down. This is all a misunderstanding."

Although Wuyao could not take human form, he could speak human language, clearly indicating that he had refined the transverse bone in his throat.

The Crimson Zheng showed great respect for its words, and withdrew its Divine Ability, retreating behind the Wuyao.

"This fellow Daoist is quite skilled. He can fight my cousin to a standstill with only his initial strength. There is such a master among the human race. May I ask his name?"

These words came from the heart and were not intended as flattery.

As king beasts, the Crimson Zheng Clan is already much stronger than other Demon Beasts of the same realm, and Qin Fei's displayed combat power is clearly enough to earn their respect.

"I am Qin Fei, and this is Jumang. He can only barely put up a fight because he has more men; he's not worth mentioning."

"But this fellow Daoist attacked me without saying a word, and now you've stepped in to stop him. What's the meaning of this?"

Qin Fei asked calmly.

Although Wuyao gives the impression of being easy to get along with, he did not let his guard down.

He believed that if he showed even the slightest fear when facing two Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Demon Beasts, they would not let him leave easily.

"It was a misunderstanding. I have investigated and found that the theft of the cubs was done by the Barbarian Tribe, and has nothing to do with you, fellow Daoist."

"The reason my cousin attacked you is because he sensed the presence of those two Barbarian Tribe on you. He's always been reckless, so I hope you'll forgive him."

"I came here to ask you if you had seen those two Barbarian Tribe before?"

Qin Fei feigned a calm expression and said indifferently, "I did see those two, but I killed them."

"Killed?"

"Indeed, you should know the relationship between our human race and the Barbarian Tribe. This person previously instigated a beast tide, causing heavy losses to our human race. I also..."

"It took a long investigation to find these two, so naturally we can't let them live."

Wuyao felt somewhat embarrassed upon hearing this.

After all, they were the ones who initiated the beast tide, and although they were being used, they are still culpable.

Especially after hearing that Qin Fei had been investigating this matter for a long time, he became even more convinced that the person in front of him must be someone extraordinary, perhaps even a high-ranking member of the Repel the North City.

No wonder I was so confident facing them; it's a good thing I didn't make a move earlier.

Wuyao breathed a sigh of relief, then, after a moment's thought, continued, "I see. To be honest, my Crimson Zheng Clan lost a cub, which is why we were exploited by treacherous people. I wonder if you have heard any other information?"

Qin Fei didn't answer, but instead asked meaningfully, "Going to such lengths to search for a cub, this cub's identity must be extraordinary, right?"

The more confident and fearless he became, the more certain Wuyao was that he was no ordinary person.

At this point, he had no intention of taking action and explained, "Nothing can be hidden from you, fellow Daoist. That cub is indeed quite important to my Crimson Zheng Clan. If you can help me find it, then my Wuyao Clan will owe you a favor."

"If you ever need anything in the future, Wuyao will never refuse!"

Qin Fei fell into deep thought.

He had learned the cub's whereabouts from Gutulu's memories and had originally planned to abduct it, but now he was glad he hadn't done so.

The Crimson Zheng Clan values this cub so much; if he were to snatch it away, they would likely never have a peaceful day again.

"I know where that cub is."

He didn't hide anything.

Since we've already abandoned this plan, we might as well use it to do someone a favor.

At the very least, this will shift the blame to the Barbarian Tribe; it's time to give them a headache.

Upon receiving Qin Fei's confirmation, Wuyao was overjoyed and eagerly asked, "Where is the cub?"

After saying this, he felt somewhat impolite and said a little embarrassedly, "I was in a hurry, I hope you won't take offense, fellow Daoist."

Qin Fei didn't seem to care, and said calmly, "If nothing unexpected happens, that cub has already entered the Barbarian Tribe territory."

"The cubs were taken away three days ago, but this place is only two days away from the Barbarian Tribe territory. If we catch up quickly, we might still make it in time."

Wuyao looked surprised and doubtful. He was unsure whether Qin Fei wanted to provoke a conflict between them and the Barbarian Tribe, or whether the cub had actually entered the Barbarian Tribe territory.

Seeing his expression, Qin Fei knew what he was thinking.

However, he didn't explain, but calmly said, "I advise you to bring more of your clansmen, lest you lose both your wife and your army. Whether you believe me or not is up to you."

Wuyao hesitated for a moment, then cupped his hands in greeting. "Thank you for your information, fellow Daoist. I will go back and prepare now."

Then, he spat out a round bead and presented it to Qin Fei.

"If you can bring back the cub, you will be an honored guest of my Crimson Zheng Clan. If you ever have any requests in the future, simply crush the bead, and I will surely come to meet you."

The bead was surrounded by wisps of mist, felt cool to the touch, and one could vaguely sense a trace of divine power contained within it.

Qin Fei nodded thoughtfully, then cupped his hands and said, "There's no time to lose, fellow Daoist, you should set off as soon as possible. I'll take my leave."

He moved with lightning speed, transforming into a streak of light and disappearing into the horizon.

"Brother, why not keep him? If he's lying, we can take him back to the clan and explain."

Crimson Zheng communicated with his mind.

Wuyao shook his head slightly and said, "It would be easy for the two of us to win if we joined forces, but we are not confident enough to capture him. This person is extraordinary, and if he escapes, he will surely become a great enemy of our Crimson Zheng Clan in the future."

"The most urgent task is to welcome back the young master and avoid creating any further complications."

The Crimson Zheng, however, was somewhat Qi Ingestion: "Brother, you overestimate him. I fought both of them alone and didn't lose. With you by my side, how can we let him escape?"

Wuyao snorted coldly and said, "You really think he can't do anything to you? This person fought you for three days and three nights, and his Spiritual Power is still incredibly abundant. He obviously didn't use his full strength."

"The cultivator beside him is also quite skilled; his self-healing ability is truly astonishing."

"If they hadn't been unwilling to be enemies with my Crimson Zheng Clan, you would probably already be in grave danger."

"There's no need to elaborate on this matter. Just follow the route provided by that person. I'll take full responsibility if anything goes wrong."

Two weeks later.

Qin Fei appeared at the edge of Repel the North City.

Although the journey was somewhat bumpy, the spirit Gu was successfully planted.

Next, simply wait for it to sprout.

Upon returning to the Heavenly Pivot Mountain Range, he locked himself in a secret chamber.

After the previous two battles, Qin Fei realized that he still had very few finishing moves.

Now, besides a few Foundation Establishment Realm puppets, his only trump card is the "Creation Spirit-Bestowing Scripture".

This skill is not only capable of imbuing spirits; otherwise, it wouldn't be considered the supreme martial art of the Heavenly Secrets Sect.

In its last few pages, a High Antiquity and wondrous array is also recorded.

The formation was extremely powerful; Qin Fei was astonished by its Celestial Person upon first glance.

If used, it could probably annihilate that Crimson Zheng Ferocious Beast within a few breaths.

This clearly contradicts Qin Fei's goals; he has no desire to become mortal enemies with the Crimson Zheng Clan.

Apart from that, there were no other means to deter the enemy.

After much thought, the fastest way to improve myself is through Spirit Artifacts.

Among the newly unlocked Tier 2 blueprints, there is a blacksmith/refiner who has a low probability of crafting Law Treasure.

If he could truly forge an offensive magic Law Treasure, he would gain another powerful means of attack.

However, the materials needed to forge magical Law Treasure are quite rare, and cannot be chosen casually.

After thinking for a while, Qin Fei realized that the best spiritual material he had at the moment was the fangs he had collected from the paper figure.

The paper doll's teeth can regenerate, and he had been collecting them without stopping, accumulating quite a few, which he could now use.

After confirming that there were no problems, Qin Fei unfolded the blacksmith's blueprints and began to study them.

Although the blacksmith is a second-tier puppet, it is not Battle Puppet. Its core is relatively simple, with only a few spirit runes.

With Qin Fei's current skill level, refining it would be almost effortless.

It took five days and one attempt without failure to successfully refine it.

Next, he immediately devoted himself to the forging of the Spirit Artifact.

The project to be completed is to forge a flying sword to replace the missing Still Water Sword.

As a second-tier puppet, the blacksmith can autonomously drive it to forge Spirit Artifacts.

However, its weapon-forging skills seem to be not very good; it fails almost nine out of ten times.

The only time it succeeded, it was only with a low-grade Spirit Artifact.

This made Qin Fei exclaim that it was a rip-off. With such good refining materials, even a random refiner on the street wouldn't be in such a sorry state.

However, he did not give up, because ordinary weapon refiners could not forge magical Law Treasures.

Everything has its balance; the blacksmith's success rate in forging weapons is so low that it gives a sliver of a chance to forge Law Treasure.

Now, ordinary Law Artifacts are useless to him; even top-grade ones offer limited improvement.

Only Law Treasure could achieve the effect he desired, and he was gambling on that extremely small probability.

One day, two days, three days --

Qin Fei wasn't in a hurry. After all, the materials could be recycled, so he could just slowly extract the paper doll's teeth.

Three months later, the Law Treasure still hadn't been forged, but a major event was reported back from the Barbarian Tribes.

Who was the audacious individual who kidnapped the young master of the Crimson Zheng Clan and was caught red-handed?

With both witnesses and physical evidence, the Barbarian Tribe had no chance to explain themselves.

As one of the king beasts, the Crimson Zheng Clan had its own pride and showed no respect to the Barbarian Tribe. They immediately mustered their troops and launched a simultaneous attack on multiple Barbarian Tribes.

War is brutal; countless Barbarian Tribe lie exposed in the wilderness.

What's most infuriating is that the three major sects took the opportunity to launch a full-scale attack, slaughtering across eight thousand miles in one go and recovering the lost territory from that year without missing a single detail.

Even a small place like Shangyu Market was included.

This victory, worthy of being recorded in history, ignited the passion of the human race to resist the barbarians.

In a short time, news of victories came from all over the country, and the Barbarian Tribe were almost driven to the brink of defeat.

Qin Fei, the instigator of this incident, was completely unaware of it.

He was holding a flying sword, examining it with great enthusiasm.

After half a year, the blacksmith finally forged his first Law Treasure!
