Shi Lang shocked the duo. They did not expect him to ask Bo Qingtan to refine the dragon vein. Yun Xue asked, "But why are you not refining it?"

The terran sighed and said, "My lightning spiritual energy is not very docile. If I refined the vein and ended up absorbing or damaging it, do you realize the loss we will be taking? On the contrary, the wood attribute is rare and gentle. So, Brother Wood has a greater chance at succeeding at this task."

Yun Xue pursed her lips and said, "If you look at it like that, water is the gentlest. Why did you not ask me to refine it?"

Shi Lang smiled and said, "Fairy Yun, your attribute is not water but ice. Even if you can refine it, your temper is not gentle, right?"

Yun Xue was shocked and raised her finger to point at Shi Lang in disbelief, and Bo Qingtan erupted in laughter. He could not help himself. The proud ice queen of Snow Maiden Peak was called out for having a volatile temper by the guy she adored.

Shi Lang waved his hand quickly and said, "Brother Wood, get on with it. We have other things to deal with after this."

Bo Qingtan nodded and sat down before the dragon vein to refine it. Shi Lang may have made it sound like it was not a big deal, but it was. This debt was something that Bo Qingtan would probably be able to pay with his life.

The benefits he will get after refining the Dragon vein will probably change his fate. His potential limited Bo Qingtan. This was not something that he would be able to break apart from. He will only realize this in the future. This chapter's initial release occurred on the N0v3l-B1n site.

Shi Lang and Yun Xue retreated to the side, and the two watched him progress. The young man said, "If any energy leaks through, absorb it. Do not let even a single wisp to escape."

Yun Xue nodded and asked, "Do we have to be so frugal about it?"

Shi Lang rolled his eyes and said, "Do you not understand? This dragon vein has the cleanest form of energy, and if we can absorb more from it. The demonic aura in our person will clean up, too."

Yun Xue understood his reasoning and asked, "You are worried that we will attract unnecessary attention from demonic cultivators?"

Shi Lang nodded and said, "They can mark us by the demonic aura on their body, so if one of them dies, the other demonic cultivators can hunt us down."

Yun Xue clicked her tongue and said, "These things sure are disgusting."

Shi Lang nodded, and both sat in the lotus position to absorb the leftover energy. The trio was absorbing energy tirelessly, gradually losing the sense of time. Raksha was still present in the cave. If anyone dared to creep up on them, she would kill them in a blink. She was not a soft-hearted fellow like Shi Lang.

...

Inside the palace, a door opened, and Ying Yu's junior sister stepped out. She had some understanding of the place from the words of the senior who gave her the inheritance, but she was still wary of the silence echoing in this monument.

As she was thinking about what to do, another door opened slowly, and she found her fellow sister coming out. The two reunited and discussed the skills they inherited, and soon, the rest of them also gathered.

Ying Yu was the strongest among them, and now, with the aid of inheritance, her skills were even stronger. She thought of something and said, "Daoist Ace, are you there?"

...

In the cave, Shi Lang was awakened by the voice in his consciousness. The voice did not belong to Ying Yu, but a thunderous roar of Lei Hu. He realized that the five people had come out of their rooms, and the young man controlled his consciousness to bring them out of the palace.

Shi Lang said, "Congratulations on finding an inheritance."

The five ladies nodded, and Ying Yu asked, "This place."

Shi Lang told them what this cave was, leaving them in a daze. The ladies caught sight of the two people sitting on the ground, immersed in cultivation. The dragon vein had already been refined and stored in the inheritance palace.

Shi Lang made the introduction and also passed on the spirit weapons they had found. Although they were not heavenly spirit weapons, they were still earth-grade spirit weapons. Ying Yu was shocked. She did not expect these three people to be so generous.

Shi Lang asked, "Fairy Ying, what do you plan to do in the meantime?"

Ying Yu thought for a second and said, "The primary goal was to locate inheritances, and thanks to you, not only that, we have even located a traitor faction in the midst of us. And those weapons, we are grateful. As for the future, we wish to find a safe place and wait for the duration to complete and leave this place. What about you?"

Shi Lang smiled faintly and said, "We are going to hunt for demons."

The five ladies were shocked. Yun Xue said, "We lack fighting experience against the demonic cultivators and beasts. Also, the demonic cultivators sent to the battlefield of gods are more or less geniuses in the demonic factions. The more we kill, the less trouble in the future."

Ying Yu was shocked internally by the way these people were thinking. She looked at her junior sisters. The four of them picked up the hint from her gaze and nodded. Ying Yu turned around and said, "Daoist Ace, if you do not mind, we would like to join you on this hunting trip."

Shi Lang smiled faintly and said, "So be it then."

The people discussed a few things and exchanged details about the factions they knew were dwelling in these lands. The major force was the Yin Demon sect. They specialized in seduction and psychological manipulation arts.

The second Blood Shura Faction cultivated the blood they extracted from other people in different manners. They were followed by a hundred corpses family and Ghost Peak.

Shi Lang nodded, and with the information provided by Ying Yu, they prepared the methods to deal with these demonic cultivators. With that, they moved out of the cave.

...

Days passed in the past week, and Shi Lang and the rest had killed many demonic cultivators. They even set off fireworks to attract the attention of the people. The terran loved a tinge of drama, so he would leave a banner everywhere he had hunted the demons.

'Beware the Demon Hunters.'

He had also asked the people to change into black robes. They did not move during the day but during the night. They killed all the demons they could find and earned great fame for themselves. The Battlefield Of Gods was vast, and it was not easy for the people to come across each other.

However, Shi Lang and his folks depended on the art of baiting and luring the demons. They would travel in the floating palace. They waited for the people to gather below, and the palace suddenly vanished. The spirit cultivators and the demonic cultivators will fight against each other.

The conflict will calm down in the name of seeking the palace. However, Shi Lang and his team would mark the demonic cultivators, and then they would hunt them down. Then, they dump the bodies devoid of blood into random places and leave a banner.

The cultivators were not interested in these demonic cultivator corpses. They were interested in the demon hunters and the palace appearing in the void now and then. They wanted to find that palace more because it was a treasure.

Shi Lang was very clever and did not move around too much. Ultimately, they killed one hundred and twenty-three demonic cultivators and thirty demonic beasts. They had gained much battle experience and were often almost injured, too.

However, the spirit liquid served as the superior medicine for them. Suddenly, the void trembled, and Shi Lang and the rest sensed it. They all appeared outside the palace, and Ying Yu said, "The time is almost up. Daoist Ace, it is time for us to rush back to the entrance point. Thank you for all your help."

Ying Yu bowed, and her juniors followed. Shi Lang, however, turned to the side and said, "If you act politely with us now, I will think that you do not consider us friends."

Ying Yu stood up with a faint smile and said, "Brother Ace, when we meet next time, I hope you can reveal your identity to me. That is when I will try to consider you as my friend."

Shi Lang chuckled and said, "Since we are all oath-bound to each other, allow me to re-introduce myself."

The terran told the five ladies about himself and promised to meet them again. The two groups parted ways with the promise that Demon Hunters shall unite once again in the future.
