"As for the Soul Devouring Insects, Junior knows what to do," Yang Kai said seriously.
"That's good." Wen Zi Shan looked at him and said, "You don't look like someone who would mess around. If there's anything you need, feel free to tell this King."
"Many thanks, Temple Master Wen."
Over the next four hours, Wen Zi Shan asked about the various details of the Divine Ascension Mirror World in detail. Yang Kai also told him everything he knew and didn't hide anything.
Four hours later, Yang Kai walked out of the hall.
Gao Xue Ting seemed to have been standing outside the entire time. When she saw him come out, she glanced at him and said lightly, "The Temple Master sent a message saying that you need a secret room?"
Yang Kai nodded and said, "Yes."
Before leaving Wen Zi Shan's place, Yang Kai had indeed mentioned this request to him. Because he wanted to refine the Insect Enslavement Bracelet, he needed a safe secret room.
Wen Zi Shan naturally agreed to such a small request and directly told him to come out and find Gao Xue Ting.
"Come with me," Gao Xue Ting said as she turned around and flew out.
Yang Kai followed closely behind.
Half an hour later, Gao Xue Ting landed on a mountain peak that was neither too high nor too low. This mountain peak wasn't considered as majestic or extraordinary in the entire Qingyang Mountain Range. It looked very ordinary. However, this mountain peak was obviously blessed by some kind of array formation. Therefore, the Spirit Qi of Heaven and Earth was higher than in other places.
There were no traces of buildings on the mountain peak, but large patches of purple bamboo could be faintly seen. The environment was also very elegant.
Gao Xue Ting led Yang Kai directly to a cave mansion halfway up the mountain and formed a seal with her hands to open the barrier. She said, "This Purple Bamboo Peak is where I live. I usually live in one of the cave mansions above. If you need anything, just call out and I'll come over in a moment. "
Hearing her say this, Yang Kai felt a little flattered and cupped his fists, "Many thanks, Elder Gao."
He originally just wanted to find Wen Zi Shan and ask for a quiet and safe secret room, but he didn't expect Gao Xue Ting to bring him to Purple Bamboo Peak where she lived. She even arranged for him to live in a neighboring cave mansion.
It was obvious that he wanted to take care of him.
Gao Xue Ting nodded and tossed a restriction token to Yang Kai, saying, "Go in by yourself."
Yang Kai took the token, scanned it with his Divine Sense, and thanked him again before entering the cave mansion.
Looking around, the cave was neither too big nor too small. There were several secret rooms that could be used. Although no one had lived here for a long time, it was as clean as new. This cave should be where Gao Xue Ting used to live. He wondered why she had changed to another one.
With a powerhouse like Gao Xue Ting in the vicinity, Yang Kai naturally felt at ease. With this, he didn't need to worry about anything when refining the Insect Enslavement Bracelet.
Time was of the essence, so Yang Kai didn't dare to delay. He first familiarized himself with the restriction token. Then, he activated all the restrictions in the cave. Only then did he enter a secret chamber and sit down cross-legged to adjust his state of mind.
Refining an Emperor Artifact was not a simple matter.
This was because Emperor Artifacts were different from ordinary artifacts. Each Emperor Artifact was full of Emperor Intent and Emperor Aura. If one's cultivation wasn't high enough during the refinement process, it was very likely that they would suffer backlash from the Emperor Artifact.
Therefore, when a cultivator with insufficient cultivation was refining an Emperor Artifact, they had to adjust their state to the best possible level.
After three days, Yang Kai felt that his essence, Qi, and Soul had reached their peak. Only then did he take a deep breath and take out the long-forgotten Insect Enslavement Bracelet from a corner of the Sealed World Bead.
Since he obtained this Insect Enslavement Bracelet, he hadn't studied it properly. He had never thought about refining it either.
It was just that this thing had played a miraculous role in two dangerous situations.
The first time was when he and Xue Yue encountered a group of strange butterflies in the Severed World. The Insect Enslavement Bracelet scared them away. The other time was when he encountered the Monster Insect Queen in the ice valley of the Blue Feather Sect. At that time, if it weren't for the Insect Enslavement Bracelet deterring the Monster Insect Queen, Yang Kai would not have been able to subdue it.
Both miraculous effects saved Yang Kai's life, and the Insect Enslavement Bracelet played a major role.
Although his current cultivation was only in the First Order Dao Source Realm, his Divine Sense had barely touched the Emperor Realm, so refining this Insect Enslavement Bracelet should not be a problem.
Thinking so, he placed the palm-sized, bracelet-shaped Emperor Artifact in the palm of his hand and put his palms together to cover it. He then pushed his Divine Sense and Source Qi at the same time and poured them into it.
There was no reaction. The Insect Enslavement Bracelet was like a piece of wood, not accepting any of his power.
Yang Kai was not in a hurry. This was only to be expected.
He slowly released his power and constantly attacked the Insect Enslavement Bracelet, trying to open a gap in this Emperor Artifact and engrave his own brand.
…..
Dozens of kilometres below Myriad Saints Peak, there was a dark underground secret room. At this moment, in this secret room, Grandma You was in a deranged state. Although her cultivation was imprisoned by an invisible force, she was still cursing incessantly.
"Wen Zi Shan, you little beast, you little bastard, you'll die a horrible death. Even if this old woman turns into a ghost, I won't let you off easily!"
She seemed to have been cursing for a while, and even her voice was extremely hoarse, making her already unpleasant voice even more unpleasant.
A person's voice suddenly rang out in this dark space.
"Grandma, you've been cursing and swearing for so long. It's so boring. My ears are getting calluses from listening to it."
Granny You's cursing abruptly paused for a moment, but soon, she screamed hysterically, "Wen Zi Shan!"
"Haha!" Temple Master Wen smiled slightly, stretched out his hand, and snapped his fingers. Suddenly, there was some light in this space. In the dim light, Grandma You's hair was disheveled, and she looked like an evil spirit, looking extremely terrifying.
Wen Zi Shan, however, turned a blind eye to this and looked at Grandma You amiably, "Grandma, you're tired of cursing, why don't you take a break? I brought you something to eat to moisten your throat! "
While speaking, he actually took out a plate of delicious and fragrant spirit fruits from his Space Ring and with a slight force of his wrist, the plate of spirit fruits flew to Grandma You.
The latter glared at him fiercely, her eyes bloodshot and filled with endless hatred.
Perhaps she really needed to moisten her throat, but after a moment of silence, Grandma You reached out and picked up the spirit fruit and ate it in big bites.
However, during the process, her pair of vicious eyes never left Wen Zi Shan as she chewed noisily. From the looks of it, she did not seem to be eating spirit fruits, but Wen Zi Shan's flesh and blood.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the plate of spirit fruits had been eaten clean by Grandma You.
"Little bastard, you didn't poison the fruit?" Grandma You wiped the corners of her mouth and looked at Wen Zi Shan sarcastically.
Temple Master Wen looked hurt and said with an aggrieved expression, "Grandma, you and I have known each other for hundreds of years, how can you still maliciously speculate about me?"
"Hmph! It's because we've known each other for hundreds of years that this old woman can see through your heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys! "Grandma You said coldly.
Wen Zi Shan smiled bitterly, "It seems that Grandma still has a big grudge against me."
"Grudge?" Grandma You sneered, "You make it sound so simple. How can this old woman just have a grudge against you? I can't wait to drink your blood, eat your flesh, and gnaw on your bones! "
"I can see that," Wen Zi Shan looked helpless, "Don't say it so horribly …"
Grandma You suddenly changed the topic and said sarcastically, "How is that Yang Boy now?"
Wen Zi Shan looked at her in surprise and said, "Grandma, you can't even protect yourself now, yet you still have the heart to care about others? I didn't know you had such good intentions. "
"You already know the answer!" Grandma You raised her voice, "I'm afraid you've already killed that boy, right?"
"Why would I kill him?" Wen Zi Shan curled his lips.
"For the Soul Warming Lotus, of course!" Grandma You said, "If you can get the Soul Warming Lotus …"
"So what if I get the Soul Warming Lotus?" This time, Wen Zi Shan didn't wait for her to finish and directly interrupted her, "I'm already a Third-Order Emperor Realm Master, and above that are the Great Emperors. Do you think that the Soul Warming Lotus is enough to reach that realm? Or do you think I should snatch his Soul Warming Lotus and do the same thing as you? "
Grandma You looked at Wen Zi Shan coldly and said, "It seems that you've talked to Yang Boy in detail and know why this old woman wants the Soul Warming Lotus."
Wen Zi Shan nodded and said bluntly, "Although I don't want to admit it, I have to say that your idea is very good, Grandma. The Soul Warming Lotus is a supreme treasure of Heaven and Earth, and it is indeed enough to bear the Divine Ascension Mirror's Mirror Soul. If you use it as a bridge, you really have a good chance of refining that world!"
"Hmph!"
"But Grandma …" Wen Zi Shan's expression suddenly became serious and he said earnestly, "Have you ever thought about how you'll refine the Soul Warming Lotus if the Mirror Soul doesn't respond to you even if you get it?"
"How can the Mirror Soul not respond to me?" Grandma You screamed, "This old woman has guarded the Divine Ascension Mirror for two thousand years and knows more about it than any of you. As long as this old woman gets the Soul Warming Lotus, this old woman is confident that she can fuse with the Mirror Soul."
"Are you sure?" Wen Zi Shan stared at her meaningfully, "Are you sure it's that simple?" He paused for a moment before his tone suddenly became sharp, "Or are you just deceiving yourself, Grandma? Is this just your obsession to defeat me? "
Grandma You suddenly froze.
Wen Zi Shan continued, "Grandma, do you know why you are still a First-Order Emperor Realm Master even though you were already a First-Order Emperor Realm Master two thousand years ago? What have you been doing for these two thousand years? What do you see in your eyes? "
Grandma You's expression gradually changed, and her eyes that were filled with hatred and bloodshot gradually became blank, empty, and then confused.
Wen Zi Shan's words seemed to have touched something buried deep in her heart.
"You clearly know that even if you get the Soul Warming Lotus, you won't necessarily be able to subdue the Mirror Soul," Wen Zi Shan sighed slightly.
"Bullshit!" Grandma You cursed.
"Then let me ask you, if it's really so easy to subdue the Mirror Soul, why didn't the Great Emperors who took Yang Boy away do it? They should have the ability to do so. "
As soon as he said this, Grandma You was surprised and speechless.
