Refining The Mountains And Rivers Chapter 492

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.

Rimward Bound
Every citizen of the sky-cities of His Majesty's Star-Empire knows that a ship, both sky- and star-, is more then just a few bits of metal. It is the grand sum of it's hull and the crew that sail it. 'Hulls of battle-steel and men to match!' That's what the Navy's recruitment poster's claim at least. Every sailor knows that there is one more component that the city-bound folk ignore at their own peril: the soul of the ship. That it takes both man and hull to make a true ship, and that neither alone serve well or for long. In 8225 Lord Jeffrye Saltonstall the Fourth, Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps, demands semi-automated ships to 'reduce the loss of life among our brave crews', manages to convince the other politicians and bureaucrats to fund them, and gets the Office of Ship Construction to sign off on the ships as structurally sound. Dockyard workers shake their heads at the ships, muttering that they are cursed from birth, even as construction drags on. In 8230 the Explorer, first of her class, is launched. She sets out in 8233 to great fanfare on a trip expected to last six months. Neither she nor her twelve-person crew is ever heard from again. By 8235, the remaining seven Explorers are are commissioned. Lord Saltonstall managed to find crews for six of them but at the cost of mass resignations. The Night Horse, last of the Explorer class, sat in reserve as her sister-ships served well enough despite ill luck and misfortune. The Office of Ship Construction quietly issues notice that no more semi-automated ships are to be built and that all active Semi-automated ships are to be quietly retired and broken up for scrap over the next ten years. The Night Horse, sitting in reserve, is missed due to bureaucratic oversight. In 8250 Lord Ayland Wynstryngham the Eighth assumes the office of Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps. His first act is to issue notice that no ship is to be without crew nor sit in dock or reserve for longer then required for maintenance and upkeep. The Night Horse, all but forgotten, is quietly brought back into active service. Recruiting a crew for her proves another matter entirely. What poor or desperate fool would willingly sign on to crew, much less command, a cursed ship and spend months or years in deep space? Well, you would, of course. Where else is a kid from the gutters going to find that kind of freedom in the service of His Majesty? A [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] 2021. Warnings: Second person is used in this work. Semi-Polished draft: Posted chapters are subject to revision as needed as things progress. Mild Profanity on occasion.
