#495 - Xuanming Black Jade, there is someone behind it

"Little Yan, is this evil cultivator dead?"

Mu Tian looked at the fallen figure of the evil cultivator in front of him and asked.

Although the death energy attack that the evil cultivator had just unleashed was powerful, they, being next to Lu Qing, naturally suffered no damage.

"I think so."

Little Yan said uncertainly.

In her perception, the evil cultivator's aura had dissipated, without a trace of life.

But her brother had said that one should not completely trust divine sense perception. When facing enemies, even if the opponent shows no signs of life, one still cannot be careless.

Moreover, this evil cultivator was clearly skilled in refining corpses, so she was even less certain.

Little Yan couldn't help but look at her brother.

Lu Qing smiled slightly: "Since you can't be sure, then how did your brother teach you before?"

Little Yan recalled for a moment, and suddenly understood.

Then, from her storage magic tool, she took out a fiery red talisman.

Activating it with her mind, suddenly, a dragon's roar resounded.

A fire dragon flew out, heading towards the evil cultivator lying on the ground.

Boom!

The power of the fire dragon was extremely strong, comparable to a full-force strike from a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator.

Landing on the corpse of the evil cultivator, the corpse of the evil cultivator was rapidly incinerated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Before long, only a pile of ashes and a few dark magic tools remained in place.

Throughout the entire process, the evil cultivator didn't even twitch.

"Brother, he's dead."

Little Yan reported to Lu Qing upon seeing this.

"…"

Mu Tian and the others were speechless as they watched this scene.

When Lu Qing spoke just now, they thought he had taught Little Yan some secret method to identify whether an enemy was alive or not.

They didn't expect it to be such a straightforward method.

However, in this way, everyone could confirm.

This evil cultivator was dead beyond any doubt.

"Mm."

Lu Qing nodded.

He could naturally determine whether the evil cultivator was really dead.

But Little Yan still needed to understand the necessary caution.

Now it seemed that Little Yan had indeed kept all his previous teachings in mind.

"Not bad, it seems you have learned some of the essence of Master's swordsmanship."

Lu Qing praised.

The flying sword technique that Little Yan had just displayed was controlled freely, and also combined with her own ice-attribute spiritual power characteristics.

She easily killed a Foundation Establishment realm enemy.

This performance made him quite satisfied.

Speaking of which, Lu Qing was also a little surprised.

When Little Yan's cultivation was successful and she reached the Perfected Houtian realm.

Lu Qing asked her what combat technique she wanted to focus on.

As a result, the little girl wanted to learn the flying sword technique the most.

Therefore, Lu Qing specially refined a high-grade treasure-level flying sword for Little Yan to refine.

Over the years, she had also been following her master in Nine Li Village, practicing swordsmanship.

Now it seemed that she had achieved quite a bit.

However, Little Yan did not use her natal flying sword in this battle.

She was only using her usual treasured sword.

Otherwise, with the power of that flying sword that Lu Qing had spent a lot of effort to forge.

Even a Core Formation realm cultivator, if careless, would probably suffer a great loss.

Little Yan was even more surprised when she heard this.

Mu Tian and the others heard the conversation between the two siblings and understood in their hearts.

As expected, Little Yan has an extraordinary master.

They just didn't know which powerful sect or force she came from. Could it be one of the legendary great secret realms?

Mu Tian and the others thought through it in their hearts and found that among the top sects and forces in the world today, there didn't seem to be a disciple as stunning as Little Yan.

After all, Little Yan had just killed an evil cultivator in the Foundation Establishment realm.

The most important thing was that she was still so young.

Even the talented direct disciples of the top sects in Zhongzhou were far inferior to this kind of cultivation talent.

The only thing they could think of was the three great secret realms that had always been low-key and mysterious.

Even the Holy Mountain had never heard of such a talented disciple.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!

While the others were making various guesses, Lu Qing stepped forward and picked up the few black magic tools left behind after the evil cultivator was burned to ashes.

Under the burning of the talisman fire dragon that Little Yan had cast, most of these evil magic tools were also damaged to varying degrees, and their power was greatly reduced.

The only one that was intact was a black jade pendant.

"Mm?"

Lu Qing looked at the jade pendant and let out a soft "Eh."

In his perception, the refining method of this jade pendant was quite exquisite, and it was not something that a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator could refine.

Moreover, the aura within it did not have that "ancient" meaning.

Obviously, this was a magic tool that had been refined in recent years, rather than a treasure left over from ancient times.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

Little Yan asked.

"It's nothing."

Lu Qing shook his head and continued to look at the black jade pendant, quietly activating his ability.

Soon, a faint golden light of ability emerged from the jade pendant.

Several lines of information floated out.

[Profound Nether Jade Pendant: A high-grade magic tool refined from Profound Nether Black Jade.]

[Profound Nether Black Jade: A mystical jade stone produced in the depths of the earth where death energy is rich, quite rare.]

[This jade pendant was refined by a certain Core Formation realm evil cultivator, and has the effect of guarding the mind and suppressing inner demons.]

……

"So it's Profound Nether Black Jade."

Lu Qing understood in his heart after seeing the few lines of information.

The inheritance left by the Li Fire Sect also had records of Profound Nether Black Jade.

This kind of black jade was only produced in those dead and forbidden places.

It was a strange precious jade that had been nurtured for countless years by the erosion of death energy.

It had the unique effect of clearing the mind and suppressing inner demons.

For cultivators, it was a very rare treasure for guarding the mind.

Especially for evil cultivators and demonic cultivators who practiced the path of demons, they were extremely thirsty for this kind of precious jade.

Because demonic cultivators themselves were prone to inner demons due to the problems of their cultivation techniques.

And Profound Nether Black Jade, which contained the artistic conception of death and could guard the mind, was simply the best exotic treasure for them.

Like the most top-grade Profound Nether Black Jade, even demonic cultivators in the Nascent Soul realm would be tempted when they saw it.

However, the Profound Nether Jade Pendant in Lu Qing's hand was refined from the most basic low-grade Profound Nether Black Jade.

Its effect of guarding the mind was not too strong, and it could only work on cultivators in the Foundation Establishment realm at most.

For powerhouses of Lu Qing's realm, it had basically no effect.

However, what Lu Qing cared about about this jade pendant was not these.

But another piece of information revealed in the lines just now.

"Refined by a certain Core Formation realm evil cultivator? As expected, there are others behind it..."

Lu Qing looked at the black jade pendant in his hand, and a trace of coldness appeared in his eyes.
