Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao

Chapter 1917: Refining the Heavenly Dao Jade, the fifth severance close at hand

‘Hmm?’

Ling Han faltered for a moment. Hu Niu!

Why had she come?

Realization immediately dawned on Ling Han. Commander Guan had to have reported the situation at the time to Hu Niu, and said that he had already died. But how could Hu Niu be willing to believe that? Thus, she had come personally.

“What is it?” The Empress could not sense what was happening outside the Black Tower.

Ling Han broke into a smile, and said, “Hu Niu is here. Before long, we will be able to meet.”

It was rare for the Empress to bear a solemn expression. In the past, one of her doppelgangers had seen Hu Niu, and she knew just how jealous this little girl could be. She also knew that Hu Niu was also exquisitely beautiful, in no way inferior to her.

It would be a challenge for her to get Hu Niu on her side, and continue to sit on precious seat as the first wife of the Ling Clan.

But the Empress was filled with confidence.

Ling Han took out the Heavenly Dao Jade, and created a crack in it. The both of them laid their palms on it at the same time, extracting the essence within.

Boom, their bodies suddenly trembled, astonishing multicolored light shooting out of them, and forming multiple seals, each different from the others.

Two hours, four hours, five hours, a day!

Ling Han and the Empress had already reached a state of satiation, and could no longer receive the power of the Heavenly Dao Jade. Furthermore, they were filled with confidence that they would be able to deliver the fifth severance now.

However, the essence of the Heavenly Dao Jade was still endlessly spewing out from the crack on the Heavenly Dao Jade, as if it would never stop.

It could not be sealed off.

Ling Han frowned. If things went on like this, wouldn’t the Heavenly Dao Jade be wasted for nothing?

His original plans were perfect. Hu Niu came, and he could just hand the remaining Heavenly Dao Jade to her, but now he had to attempt to break through to the fifth severance. Otherwise, the essence of the Heavenly Dao Jade would rapidly disappear, and he would also miss this opportunity that had formed after 10 months of hard battling.

This was something accumulated from having experienced countless battles. To reach this kind of condition next time, he might have to fight more than 10 times, or 100 times the number of opponents. The problem was that this was a chance that would only take place once in an epoch. Under normal conditions, just how long would you need to encounter so many top-notch prodigies?

Hence, if he missed this chance, the next time could possibly be a million, or 10 million years later.

Ling Han thought for a moment, exited the Black Tower, and then entered into his Spatial God Tool.

“Take it!” He tossed out the remaining Heavenly Dao Jade, then turned and left, leaving Bewitching Maiden Rou in a state of bafflement.

His heart was aching!

He naturally wanted to save something so precious for his own people, but Hu Niu was so energetic, and would have vanished by now. Meanwhile, the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Maiden had not advanced into the Severing Mundane Tier yet, so she was not capable of refining it at all. Otherwise, that would only be seeking death.

He could only benefit this great bewitching maiden.

Bewitching Maiden Rou grabbed the Heavenly Dao Jade, her expression completely dumbfounded.

‘What do you mean by this? Running after throwing a rock at me? What did I do to you? Why did you throw this rock at me?’

But in the next instant, she sensed the energy released from the Heavenly Dao Jade, and she immediately showed an expression of astonishment.

It was simply boundless, as if the Heavenly Dao was just in front of her eyes, and could be touched just by stretching out her hand.

She hurriedly grabbed hold of the Heavenly Dao Jade tightly, sat down in cross-legged position, and began to refine these benefits.

Once she was actively drawing on the essence inside the Heavenly Dao Jade, she immediately realized what kind of precious treasure this was. All the inadequacies that she had previously encountered in her cultivation were being mended, and she had reached perfection.

All her four strikes had been struck on herself, but now the mortal bonds that she had severed had all returned, and in their place, there was a more obvious gulf between herself and the Heavenly Dao.

Was this something bad?

No, no, no. She immediately realized that it was not the case.
