《Refining the Mountains and Rivers》Chapter 492 – Demon Wolf Pack
Advertisement
Qin Yu turned and walked away, no hesitation in his step. In this current situation, how could he bring a burden with him?
But Young Master Sun already seemed prepared. He leapt over and before Qin Yu could remand him, he said, “Fellow daoist Yao, please listen to what I have to say first! Although cultivating the Demon Body relies heavily on talent, treasures are also important. As long as fellow daoist agrees to help me leave this small world, I guarantee I can give fellow daoist Yao ten…no, 20 Demon Body Tempering Pills!”
Qin Yu’s eyes turned cold. “How did you know I cultivate the Demon Body?”
Sun Zifu felt as if he had fallen into an icy lake. He instinctually screamed out in his mind. His voice trembled as he said, “I…I didn’t…”
From the looks of things, he didn’t seem to be lying.
The cold chill in Qin Yu’s eyes faded a little. But, he still stared at Sun Zifu, clearly waiting for an explanation.
Sun Zifu gulped. “Of all those who enter this small world, there is no one who doesn’t want to cultivate the Demon Body. Moreover, fellow daoist Yao accepted the commander level demon blood just now…”
It seemed that he had been too cautious and suspicious in this thinking. This was a form of inward self-protection he had subconsciously put around himself ever since Four Seasons City.
Qin Yu thought for a moment and then asked, “The Demon Body Tempering Pills you speak of, what use do they have?”
Sun Zifu took a deep breath and said, “These pills are rarely seen. There are only a small number of them that flow in the inner circles of the Demonic Path. As soon as they appear, everyone will try to snap them up as soon as possible.” He carefully looked up and saw Qin Yu’s earnest expression. Joy lifted his heart and he continued, “The Demon Body Tempering Pill is a miracle pill refined from numerous precious treasures in conjunction with high level demon blood. After swallowing one, it can help a person accelerate the progress of their Demon Body cultivation and raise the chances of someone awakening a Demon Body battle technique!
“20 Demon Body Tempering Pills is already the limit of my Sun Family. These pills can’t be estimated with value because they cannot be purchased with spirit stones. They are an extremely rare kind of spirit pill. Fellow daoist Yao, I can make a blood oath that once I make it out of this place, I will never break my word. I only ask that fellow daoist please save me!”

He deeply bowed.
Qin Yu had a thoughtful expression. This was the first time he heard of the existence of the Demon Body Tempering Pill. If Sun Zifu wasn’t lying, this pill was indeed invaluable!
When cultivating the Demon Body, the initial beginning steps to crossing the threshold were extremely harsh. But after that, it was a smooth road forward. However, once one desired to break into higher levels of the Demon Body, every bit of promotion was incredibly difficult.
Qin Yu currently had a Sovereign level Demon Body. His blood energy and body were incomparably potent. However, it was just that during this recent period of time, the ones he came into contact with were Blue Sea powerhouses and even unsurpassed Calamity Immortal realm experts. This was the only reason why his body didn’t seem so fierce.
But in truth, the strength of his body alone was enough to contend with an initial Blue Sea realm cultivator. But after reaching this step, the growth speed of his blood energy was incomparably slow. Ever since he had broken through to the Blue Sea realm until now, there had been almost no increase to the strength of his Demon Body.
Ordinarily, pills that strengthened the body would only have a miniscule effect.
This Demon Body Tempering Pill was clearly a special auxiliary pill used to help others cultivate a higher level Demon Body. This point alone proved how valuable it was.
Young Master Sun was flustered. He was horrified that he would hear a rejection. In the silent atmosphere, sweat quickly formed on his forehead.
Originally, he still had a bit of resentment in handing over the Demon Body Tempering Pills. But now all of that resentment had dissipated into nothingness.
Compared to his life, treasures and that sort of stuff wasn’t anything at all!
Qin Yu’s eyes flashed. “Make your blood oath!”
At this moment, Sun Zifu felt nothing but deep gratitude surging from his heart. He excitedly nodded and quickly established a demonic path blood oath. Qin Yu received the rune of the blood oath. The backlash that came from reneging on this type of blood oath was extremely terrifying; no one dared to go against it.
“Let’s go.”
“Of course. Fellow daoist, please.”
Sun Zifu took a deep breath, feeling as if he had survived a disaster.
In the blink of an eye, from the moment that Qin Yu and Sun Zifu came to an agreement, two days had passed.

The small world was indeed far more chaotic. As Sun Zifu saw Qin Yu slaughter all the ferocious demon beasts they encountered, he could only silently gulp and feel overjoyed by his choice.
Luckily for him, he had been quick-witted enough to grab onto Yao Bin’s big thigh without hesitating to pay any price. Otherwise, there was a high chance he would have already become food in the belly of a demon beast. In fact, by this point he would likely have been digested already and become a pile of…cough cough, in short, he highly approved his own smarts.
Qin Yu took back his hand, sensing the warm and tepid aura dispersing itself through his body. As he thought, after refining the commander level demon blood, the appetite of his demonic bloodline had become much more ‘high class’. Although this demon beast he had slain hadn’t been weak, it was only able to strengthen his demonic bloodline by an almost unnoticeable amount.
If he wished to promote his bloodline, he could only refine the blood of commander-level or higher demon beasts. But, this rank of demon beast was scarce to begin with and all of them were extremely fierce. It was much more difficult to hunt them down.
As for Sun Zifu, he had been a lucky bastard. He had come across a grievously wounded commander-level demon beast and had managed to kill it after using up all his strength.
Qin Yu shook his head, suppressing these helpless thoughts. Right now, the most important issue at hand was making sure to survive, right?
It seemed that because his strength had risen recently, a flaw had appeared in his mentality. He actually had a feeling of overwrought self-importance and pride.
Mm, he had to be more vigilant against this!
Sun Zifu smiled as bright as a flower. “Fellow daoist Yao is truly fierce.” Cough cough, who cared if he was needlessly flattering? As long as he could give off a favorable impression, that was all that mattered.
Qin Yu simply shook his head. During these past two days, he had heard similar words far too many times.
But if he didn’t let him speak, this Young Master Sun might even be more terrified and restless. If so, it was better to just ignore him.
As Qin Yu was thinking about where to go, a fishy stench entered his nose. Qin Yu’s heart quickened and he raised his guard.
He grabbed onto Sun Zifu. Before the young master could even speak, Qin Yu pushed his feet against the ground and exploded away like a bolt of lightning.
The moment he left, deep howls resounded in his ears. From all around, brightly furred and green-eyed wolves emerged from all directions.
A white wolf king proudly stood atop a distant boulder. Its intelligent eyes calmly stared at the two people who escaped. With a deep howl, the wolves instantly sprinted into action, converging into a great torrent that chased after the two.
“Demon wolf pack!”
Sun Zifu screamed out loud, frightened to the point where he almost peed his pants. All sorts of tyrannical demon beasts existed in the Demon Ascension Gate’s small world. But if one had to speak about the most terrifying demon beasts, the demon wolves were definitely one of them.
This was because they were one of the few kinds of demon beasts that liked to live in packs. Although a single demon wolf wasn’t too strong, when they gathered in packs and howled in the forested mountains, there were no other demon beasts that would dare be enemies with them.
Because once the demon wolves had locked onto their prey, they would chase them to the ends of the world. And right now, this demon wolf pack had clearly targeted them.
It was over…it was over…they were dead for sure!
Sun Zifu couldn’t help but turn his head and look at Qin Yu. He thought that even though this small world had descended into chaos, it still couldn’t change the harsher tests that this ‘old person’ had to experience.
What a pity, in the end I was unable to escape the fate of being implicated by him and perishing.
Qin Yu’s complexion paled. He had no time to pay attention to all the random thoughts passing through Sun Zifu’s head at the moment. When it came to the horror of a demon wolf pack, he also had a certain understanding of it.
What horrid luck!
He took a deep breath and roiling blood energy erupted within his chest. His feet smashed into the ground, leaving cracks wherever he stepped, his speed rising once again.

Star Wars - Trials of the Sith
The Sith are harsh. They can be cruel. They may be insane. But they are always strong. The journey to that strength is through the fire and the fury of trials where there is no mercy shown. While being forged into a weapon of the Empire, one has to have the strength of will, toughness of mind and the hardness of body. If they succeed, then they may, one day, be known as a Lord of the SIth. This is the story of one such weapon. **Author's notes - I will be posting this on other sites as well such as SH, AO3 and others as I find them. **About this story: This was only intended to be a one off story that is connected my much larger Star Wars fanfic novels, so the first chapter was huge. I have been absolutely delighted to see such a positive response to this (On Scribble Hub) and have decided to continue Talo's story. I have several ideas about this and will be twining her story into the novels as I figure it out. I am very much a Pantser so I have no idea how this will play out. I hope you enjoy the ride as we explore these concepts.

The Many Blades of Wuxia
Hundreds of years after the Heretic wars ended, life has returned to its blissful ignorant state that only peace could bring. Whilst the never-ending war between Man, Beast and Mutant rages on, most are not even aware of a war that happened between men. Its prophecies shattered, their remnants surviving only in obscure bard tales. One is about to grow. On the cracked face of the world, Essence storms and Beast Waves keep the citizenry locked atop the Emperor city of Qaelang. Knowledge of the past is as rare as the metals that flow into the hands of Sacred Artists and at the root of it all are whispers of a malignant force, ancient and terrible. Holding humanity back from achieving greatness, but hiding too are secrets best left untouched. Balance, discipline and order have held Qaelang secure since time immemorial, the powers within claiming to adhere to them. None are more fearful of change than the ones with the most to lose, but change is coming. Blade of Wuxia is a long character-focused epic fantasy with progression and growth. It's about a boy's quest to become powerful enough to save those he cares most for and give them a better life. It's set in a world of hidden pasts and uncovering them will set him on a path that shakes the Empire. As this is a rewrite that took on a wildly different spin, reviews are most welcome and help me do better. What can the reader expect? A Wuxia society set in a High fantasy world. People are only doing what they know and may have mistaken beliefs. A clever resourceful protagonist with human flaws A far-reaching hidden fantasy world, rich in history. Multiple points of view are used to follow the story to its natural conclusions, not every NPC has all the answers, but there is one MC in this book. Progression will take time and sometimes even unknowingly. MC is not trained in the ways and knowledge must be tempered against experimentation. Release Schedule. 2 chapters a week, family and work permitting. Only if I'm happy with the chapter will I release it. That being said I am open to revision should an articulated critical response show merit. This story is not completed yet but I do have a general idea of what the end looks like for both MC's (yes both) Ultimately feedback will be most influential on the progression of release as it's you guys I'm looking to entertain. Expected Changes None really, I'm writing as I go and have a path planned for 6 books Chapter release rate might change if we take off and feedback starts flowing, but for now, it is just about making sure Arcs flow smoothly onto the next. Cover, yes absolutely! If there is enough interest I will open a Patreon account and use the first proceeds to commission an EPIC cover and hopefully a few scary artworks of our brave Cultivators and the foes they face.
