Chapter 543: Wind Thunder Wings
“Hmph! Humans are all cunning and sly. No matter where you’ve seen me before, it’s better not to play tricks from now on!” The poisonous flood dragon was originally fiddling with a large, shining pearl in his hand, but suddenly clenched his fingers tightly, turning the pearl into a pile of powder in an instant. A fierce gleam flashed across the poisonous flood dragon’s grim face!
Han Li felt a chill in his heart but forced a bitter smile on his face and said nothing.
“All right, Daoist Li, you can consider yourself acquainted with the two younger brothers here. I do need the help of all three of you; missing even one would give me a huge headache,” Feng Xi hurriedly stepped in to ease the tense atmosphere, then gestured for Han Li to sit on the other side of the table, a little farther from the other two.
“Brother Feng, we’ve known each other for years, so why keep things so mysterious? You still haven’t revealed the full story to us. And why do you need a human cultivator’s help? What can a mere core formation stage cultivator do?” The poisonous flood dragon raised a large glass of wine in front of him, gulped it down, and said in a careless manner.
“Yeah! You insisted that the two of us come together this time. I’m curious too. Is there some danger involved with your matter, Brother Feng?” The turtle demon with a thick, hard shell on his back frowned, showing a hint of suspicion.
Despite his towering stature, he appeared somewhat distrustful.
“Brother Gui, don’t worry. I didn’t invite you two here to deal with enemies or go to dangerous places. I only want your help to refine a magical treasure,” Feng Xi smiled and waved his hand lightly.
“Refine a magical treasure?” The turtle demon and poisonous flood dragon were momentarily stunned and exchanged glances.
Han Li, listening beside them, was equally shocked, a surprised expression flashing across his face.
“That’s right. I’m preparing to refine a magical treasure tailored just for myself,” Feng Xi said slowly, a trace of fanaticism appearing on his face.
“Did I hear wrong? Brother Feng wants to refine an external item? Brother Feng, have you forgotten that for us demonic cultivators, the body itself is the best magical treasure? What material could be more suitable than our own demonic flesh for refining and strengthening?” The poisonous flood dragon showed a dismissive expression and shook his head while advising.
“Brother Wu is absolutely right. No matter the power of a magical treasure, it can’t compare to the innate talent of a demonic cultivator. Instead of wasting time on external items, we should focus more on cultivating our own magical abilities. Take Brother Wu’s flood dragon body, for example — it naturally grasps all water-element cultivation techniques without a master and can surpass other races a hundredfold with slight practice. Brother Feng’s spiritual bird body has excellent wind-element aptitude; if he perfects his wind and fire wings cultivation method, he can instantly travel thousands of miles and roam the seas. Although my black turtle body lacks such extensive magical abilities, if I refine my hard shell to the level of transformation spirit, it will become an invincible body. There’s no need to learn how to refine magical treasures like humans,” the turtle demon nodded repeatedly in agreement and also counseled.
Feng Xi wasn’t angry about the two demons’ remarks; instead, he laughed heartily.
“What you two say is true; I wouldn’t be so foolish after all these years of cultivation. But the magical treasure I’m about to refine has a special secret — it’s another pair of spiritual wings. However, these won’t be the usual wind and fire wings but wind thunder wings. With this second pair of wings assisting the first, I’m confident I can go anywhere in this vast world!” This level 9 riftwind beast suppressed his excitement as he spoke, shocking the two demons across from him.
