"I'll do my best."
Du Shaofu nodded and formed a seal with his hands. A Spiritual Stove Symbol Cauldron immediately condensed in front of him. A blazing aura surged as flames leapt out of the Spiritual Stove Symbol Cauldron.
The blazing aura caused Qiangu Yu's mind to ripple. Now that he had lost all of his cultivation, he almost wanted to crawl and tremble.
"I'm going to refine a body for you now. You have to enter my Spiritual Stove Symbol Cauldron and refine the impurities out of it. This process is extremely dangerous. If you can't withstand it, then everything will be for naught," Du Shaofu said to Qiangu Yu. "I understand."
Qiangu Yu nodded, and squatted down, before jumping into Du Shaofu's spiritual furnace and talisman cauldron.
"Ah …"
As soon as he jumped into the Spiritual Stove Symbol Cauldron, Qiangu Yu let out a blood-curdling scream. The instant his clothes touched the Spiritual Stove Symbol Cauldron, they were burned to ashes by the high temperature. The flames burned his body, and his hair stood on end. His long black hair was also burned to ashes.
As the flames entered his body, not only his skin, but even the depths of his soul suddenly felt a burning pain.
The sudden searing pain caused the Ancient Jade Soul to feel as if it was being evaporated by the high temperature. His skin shriveled up due to the searing pain, just like the skin of an animal that was being burned by fire. Sizzling sounds could be heard as oil began to seep out of his skin.
However, Qiangu Yu was still a Martial Lord. Although his cultivation was crippled and his Spirit Gate shattered, his body was still a Martial Lord's body. There was still some residual Xuan Qi in his meridians, and his mental state was definitely at the Martial Lord level. After a blood-curdling scream, Du Shaofu didn't control the temperature of the flames too high. Although Qiangu Yu's entire body was in incomparable pain, he was still able to withstand it.
"Hualala …"
At the same time, the protective pill that Qiangu Yu had just consumed also began to take effect within his body. A burst of rich medicinal power spread through his body, enveloping his internal organs and warding off the lethal heat that was seeping into his body.
However, the high temperature of the flames still caused his internal organs, bones, muscles, cells and blood vessels to twitch intensely. It was so painful that he could not speak.
"I must resist it!"
Du Shaofu said to the Ancient Jade inside the Spiritual Stove Symbol Cauldron. His hand seals changed, and a white divine energy spread out from his body, shaking the whole space.
Using his spiritual energy to control the temperature inside the Spiritual Stove Symbol Cauldron, Du Shaofu started to forge the Eternal Jade Body according to the Saint Body Secrets.
In order to help Qiangu Yu use the Saint Body Secrets, Du Shaofu had been taking the time to comprehend the Saint Body Secrets. He had also taken the time to refine the protective pill before the Kingdom War with the Tianhu Empire.
This was the first time that Du Shaofu was using the Saint Body Secrets left behind by his master, the Revered Artifact Master, so he did not dare to be careless. He was extremely nervous and focused.
The Saint Body Secrets were similar to a Body Refining Technique, but it was not the same. It refined the cultivator's body like a Spiritual Artifact. At the same time, it could refine some Beast Energy Secret Techniques and even Talisman Arrays into the body. At the end of the refinement, the body would be comparable to a Dao Artifact, a Spiritual Artifact, or a Saint Artifact.
If news of Du Shaofu's plan spread, people would probably call him crazy. Only the current Qiangu Yu would believe that Du Shaofu could succeed.
Of course, Qiangu Yu believed in Du Shaofu because he had no other choice. If it was in the past, he probably would not have believed in Du Shaofu.
However, Du Shaofu believed that his master, the Revered Artifact Master, would definitely succeed. It was just that the difficulty was not ordinary. From what his master had left behind, Du Shaofu knew that his master had experimented with the Saint Body Secrets and had succeeded before.
"Hualala …"
He controlled the flames in the cauldron to expel the impurities in Qiangu Yu's body. Under the flames, bursts of white smoke burst out, and sizzling sounds could be heard from the cauldron.
As time passed, the impurities in Qiangu Yu's body were burned out and turned into ashes in the flames.
"Ah …"
However, Qiangu Yu was in a miserable state during this process. His skin was about to explode from the flames. The pain was indescribable and indescribable. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to bear it, they wouldn't even be able to bear it.
But Qiangu Yu gritted his teeth and endured the inhuman pain. His eyes were bloodshot, and anyone who looked at him would tremble in fear.
This was an extremely time-consuming process, and it lasted for a full 48 hours. For Qiangu Yu, this was definitely the longest time he had ever spent in his life.
The energy of the Body Protection Pill in Qiangu Yu's body began to disappear. His internal organs, meridians, and blood vessels were twitching under the high temperature. His body began to emit sizzling smoke, which spread out from his nostrils, mouth, ears, and even eyes.
However, at least on the surface, Qiangu Yu's body had undergone a huge change. His whole body was shining with a luster, as if he had been poured with metal, and he was emitting a sense of explosive power.
"Chi chi …"
Suddenly, Du Shaofu's hand seals changed, and the flames inside the cauldron dissipated by more than half. Immediately, Qiangu Yu's pain lessened by a lot.
"Next, I will set up some talisman arrays and secret techniques on your body. It should be extremely painful, so continue to resist." Du Shaofu's face was pale after spending 48 hours in a row. His consumption was astonishing.
As soon as Du Shaofu's voice fell, he condensed a handprint. The mysterious runes of the talisman immediately spread out rapidly, and a faint wave of energy spread around his body.
What Du Shaofu had to do next was to inscribe some special talisman arrays and secret beastly techniques on the ancient jade's body. Adding the burning flames of the spiritual furnace and talisman cauldron, he had to inscribe them in the depths of the bones. Only then could these talisman arrays and secret beastly techniques completely fuse with the ancient jade.
And this process was absolutely a huge project for Du Shaofu. It involved many complicated steps, comprehension of talisman arrays and secret techniques, and finally refining them into Qiangu Yu's body.
Any one of these steps was enough to make ordinary Talisman Masters shrink back, and some Talisman Masters wouldn't even dare to do it after learning of the process.
To Qiangu Yu, this was even more excruciating than the searing pain of his body refinement. The beast energy secret technique and talisman formations were inscribed deep into his bones, and it was far more excruciating than the bone-scraping pain.
And at this time, one was willing to take the hit, and the other was willing to take the hit. Even if the Revered Artifact Master himself was here, he would be speechless. It could be said that these two people didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.
"Ah …"
A moment later, a heart-shaking howl was heard again in the room. Du Shaofu's hand seals fell on Qiangu Yu's body, and with a radiance of energy, they made Qiangu Yu's body bubble like fluctuations, before disappearing. And during this process, Qiangu Yu was unceasingly screaming.
"Hualala …"
As the talisman arrays entered Qiangu Yu's body, energy fluctuations began to spread from Qiangu Yu's body. These energy fluctuations were extremely mysterious, as if they could communicate with and absorb the energy of heaven and earth around Qiangu Yu.
"Qiangu Yu, you have to hold on."
Looking at the talisman arrays falling on Qiangu Yu's body, Du Shaofu's expression became more and more solemn. The talisman arrays continued to be carved into Qiangu Yu's body, causing a strange energy fluctuation to spread throughout Qiangu Yu's body.
And so, time continued to pass, and Qiangu Yu continued to scream …
Effort and reward were proportional. At this moment, as long as the Ancient Jade could withstand Du Shaofu's attack and Du Shaofu could succeed, the magnificent Ancient Jade of Tianwu Academy would be able to rise from the ashes and return to the path of martial arts. It might even be stronger than it was in the past!
"Unbelievable, this is simply unbelievable …"
There was actually a third person in the room at this moment. Zhen Qingchun's illusory body had appeared in the room at some point in time, and his inverted-triangle eyes were filled with shock and disbelief as he looked at the two arrogant people in the room.
With Zhen Qingchun's keen eyesight and rich experience, he more or less knew what Du Shaofu and Qiangu Yu were doing, and this unbelievable scene was enough to shock him.
Little Tiger and Du Xiaoqing were responsible for protecting Qiangu Yu and Qiangu Yu. As they listened to the incessant screams in the courtyard, their eyes were filled with confusion, but they also stayed close to Qiangu Yu and Qiangu Yu.
Even the playful Du Xiaoqing put away her playful thoughts and focused on protecting Qiangu Yu and Qiangu Yu after receiving instructions from her brother.
At the same time, in the Imperial Capital Dragon City, Du Manor.
There was an ancient stone coffin in the main hall of the Du Manor, and it exuded an ancient aura.
If Du Shaofu was here, he would definitely be able to recognize that this stone coffin was actually the stone coffin in the Du family's ancestral hall in Stone City. For some reason, this stone coffin had actually appeared in the Du household.
"This stone coffin's aura is ancient, and it seems to have some history."
"Could it be that this was left behind by our Du Family's ancestors?"
Many elders and experts of the Du Manor surrounded the stone coffin and sized it up.
"Old Six, Old Five, did you find the treasures of the Du family? Why are you all injured? Why did you bring back a sarcophagus? What about the other members of the family who went to the stone city with you?" An old man asked two pale-faced middle-aged men in the hall.
A pale-faced man's eyes were filled with coldness as he said, "After we went to Stone City, we searched many places, but we didn't find anything special. We also didn't find any information about the Du Family's treasure. However, we found that the stone coffin in the ancestral hall seemed to be extremely ancient and extraordinary, so we wanted to take it back for a look. Who knew that the Du Family branch in Stone City wouldn't agree and attacked us."
