I Have a Golden Crow

”Boom!”

Accompanied by an astonishing explosion, Golden Body Du Yu pierced through the Heaven-covering Robe and dove into the mountain.

Rocks flew, and shockwaves spread everywhere.

Yang Qingqing patted the horse’s back, and the Ghostly Horse immediately descended.

”Neeeigh~”

The Wind Trace Steed neighed, a wild wind blowing forward, sweeping away the thick smoke and dust, causing boulders to roll chaotically.

”Alright,” Yang Qingqing said softly, as the Wind Trace Steed quietly merged into her body.

Immediately after, Yang Qingqing floated down diagonally, extending a Rose Vine from her hand to clear the pile of chaotic rocks before her.

Finally, the figure of Golden Body Du Yu came into view.

His smiling face and crying face appeared strange to Yang Qingqing.

Honestly, whether it’s a smiling face or a crying face, she found it hard to accept.

Firstly, her student hadn’t cried much, so Yang Qingqing didn’t know what Du Yu looked like when crying.

But Du Yu often smiled, with a bright gaze that was rather pleasing.

As for the face before her... well, how to say it.

Squinting eyes, smiling merrily.

On a True Buddha, it naturally appeared benevolent. But on Du Yu’s face, it didn’t look like he was a good person at all?

”Come quickly, Master Qing, Spiritual Qi!” Du Yu yelled angrily, awakening the scrutinizing Yang Qingqing.

Under the state of Furious-eyed Vajra, Du Yu had no normal tone of voice left, his words filled with anger, shocking Yang Qingqing’s mind.

Du Yu shouted more fiercely, ”If we can’t obtain it, then we’ll drain the Demon Robe!”

Spirit-Slaying Pestle: ”...”

”Come over quickly!” From behind, smiling Du Yu suddenly extended a large golden hand, grabbing the floating Yang Qingqing.

Yang Qingqing: ???

Immediately, Yang Qingqing was handed hand to hand, transferred from smiling Du Yu’s palm to the large hand of angry Du Yu, pressing towards the giant white robe.

The Ancient Spiritual Artifact fallen a thousand years ago, how much effort is needed to reemerge?

The dense Demon Breath and Spiritual Qi released by the Heaven-covering Robe gave the master and student a perfect answer.

Du Yu himself was too late to absorb, how could he just watch the Spiritual Qi dissipate?

At this moment, the master and student’s eyes had no focus on Demon Breath, which was easy to acquire in modern society.

Only Spiritual Qi, you simply couldn’t find a place for cultivation!

After the fall of the Heaven-covering Robe, the Spiritual Qi released was pure Spiritual Qi.

In the past, with just one portion of Spiritual Qi gifted by the Shadow Gu Tower, one could shape a Spirit Master.

Using the ”portion” gifted by the Shadow Gu Tower as a unit, then the Spiritual Qi released by the Heaven-covering Robe was as much as 8 portions!

”Don’t let it escape! Don’t let the Spiritual Qi escape!” The rebellious student, grabbing the Immortal Master’s delicate body with one hand, suddenly raised the arm.

Yang Qingqing: ”...”

Gripped tightly in the palm, her hands clawed at Du Yu’s knuckle, absorbing as much of the dissipating Spiritual Qi as she could into her body.

The master and student feasted, Du Yu dramatically crossed the Spirit Tamer’s Peak threshold, and Yang Qingqing headed towards the Spirit Tamer’s Great Success Stage.

The Spirit Tamer’s advancement didn’t stir much, more as if it was the natural flow, in harmony with the truth of heaven.

Indeed, the true cultivation path for the Human Race should be the profession of Spirit.

Compared to advancing in the profession of Demon Taming, progressing in Spirit advancement was incredibly smooth!

Of course, part of the reason was due to Du Yu’s lower Spirit level.

Until all the Spiritual Qi was absorbed, Du Yu still rummaged through the dense Demon Breath in search of any remaining traces.

”Eh?” Du Yu’s voice suddenly lost its full majesty and rage, returning to a normal tone.

Along with it, the enormous golden body shattered, and Du Yu reverted to a small human form.

And the Yang Qingqing, who had been searching for Spiritual Qi while being swung around in his palm, was finally released...

”Uh.” Du Yu’s knees buckled, falling to the ground.

He covered his head with both hands, feeling as if it would split from pain.

Not until he exited the Furious-eyed Vajra state did Du Yu, after the event, realize that his emotions and actions had all been influenced.

Suddenly, Du Yu felt bursts of lingering fear.

Was that person still me just now?

Evidently, yes, but my anger and impulsiveness were infinitely magnified.

While transformed into Furious-eyed Vajra, Du Yu was unaware, until he left the Angry state, he suddenly regained his senses.

A sudden hand gently placed on his head.

”Master Qing,” Du Yu said awkwardly, turning to the right.

Following the light green long dress, he looked up towards the woman standing beside him.

Perhaps I was too overbearing just now?

Yang Qingqing’s eyes carried a trace of reproach but more concern: ”Is your state restored?”

”Mm... Mm.” Du Yu weakly nodded.

”Stand up, don’t kneel.” Yang Qingqing patted Du Yu’s head, not accounting for much.

At least she didn’t intend to lay blame for the time being.

”Smack~”

As Du Yu stood up, an object suddenly fell forward from his chest.

Du Yu looked down only to see an exquisite Vajra Pestle drop to the ground.

Yang Qingqing connected the reasons and guessed: ”You borrowed it?”

”Mm.” Du Yu felt a tight squeeze in his chest, his expression not looking good.

It’s not that he coveted the Spiritual Artifact, but the other party actively cut the contract, his Acupoint Home suddenly became empty.

His heart felt like a missing piece, the taste was unbearable.

Couldn’t you at least give me a heads-up in advance?

Leaving just like that, worse than even the king...

Yang Qingqing’s hand naturally dropped, her fingertips released a Flower Vine, picking up the exquisite Vajra Pestle, observing it closely.

Regarding Du Yu’s three faces, Yang Qingqing finally had an answer.

Compared to Du Yu, the three divine Buddha faces on the round ball at the Vajra Pestle’s tail, whether crying or smiling, looked much more pleasing.

Beside him, Du Yu also picked up the enormous Heaven-covering Robe.

The robe was somewhat tattered, and at the hood and back area, a hole had been punctured.

Whether the clothes were torn didn’t really matter.

The main issue was that the Artifact Spirit within was shattered by the Spirit-Slaying Pestle!

That’s why this Heaven-covering Robe lost its spirituality and became a special piece of clothing.

Yang Qingqing ran her fingers over the tip of the pestle and softly said, ”Such a powerful magical artifact, truly rare.”

Du Yu rolled up the tattered robe and wrapped it around his arm, ”Master Qing, the supreme power of the Spirit-Slaying Pestle is specially designed against spiritual artifacts.”

Yang Qingqing: ”Oh?”

Du Yu: ”The Spirit-Slaying Pestle was born specifically to destroy other spiritual artifacts. After I signed a contract with it, I asked for some information.

If we use the Spirit-Slaying Pestle to fight demon beasts or demon tamers, it would just be an ordinary weapon.

The golden light of the Spirit-Slaying Pestle targets only the artifact spirits, ineffective against other life forms.”

”Not quite.” Yang Qingqing shook her head, ”The Spirit-Slaying Pestle just emerged, the information it gave you is still from hundreds of years ago.

Its form of existence has changed and it’s no longer a pure spiritual artifact.

Just like your Shadow Gu Tower, it could only take the spirit souls of spirit masters in the past, but after changing form and rising again, it can now also refine demon souls.”

”Right!” Du Yu’s eyes lit up, mumbling, ”In that case, besides dealing with ancient spiritual artifact spirits, the Spirit-Slaying Pestle can also counter...”

Yang Qingqing softly said, ”Spirit Masters cultivate spiritual Qi, using ancient spiritual artifacts as weapons. Demon Tamers cultivate demon breath, using demon soldiers as weapons.”

Du Yu: ”Do demon soldiers have artifact spirits... oh, right, soldier souls!”

Because Du Yu didn’t often deal with this area, he almost forgot that Master Qing had taught him this point of knowledge.

Why can a demon soldier establish its own otherworldly civilization?

Because it cultivated a soldier soul, embarking on the road to heaven.

This way, divine weapons can also contract with demon tamers and integrate into the owner’s acupoints.

The Mountain Fire Saber is the best example!

In fact, Yang Qingqing has already signed a contract with the Mountain Fire Saber at this moment.

Excluding the influence of external factors, Yang Qingqing could completely incorporate the Mountain Fire Saber into her acupoints.

However, there are too many interests involved, and coupled with Yang Qingqing’s limited strength, it’s currently very difficult to incorporate the Mountain Fire Saber into her body.

”It seems you really can stay by my side now.” Yang Qingqing looked at Du Yu, a hint of gentleness and appreciation in her eyes.

Even having just gone through a life-and-death battle, her mindset wasn’t much affected, truly someone who had weathered great storms.

”Mm.” Du Yu slightly averted his gaze.

Had she long noticed his little thoughts?

Indeed, at Shatang Mansion before, he had said similar things.

”In this mission, you performed quite well, courageous and wise, deserving of the highest merit.” Yang Qingqing reached out to Du Yu’s arm, unwrapped the tightly wound white robe, and tucked the Vajra Pestle inside.

”Thank you for the praise, Master Qing.”

”Though your actions were a bit presumptuous...”

Hearing this, Du Yu’s heart tightened.

The woman spoke softly, ”But the state was special, understandable.”

Only then did Du Yu breathe a sigh of relief, he had indeed been a bit forward earlier waving around the Immortal Master.

Hmm... but it was quite fun~

Seeing Du Yu’s tense face relax, Yang Qingqing couldn’t help but smile lightly.

She remained silent, her figure slowly ascending.

A gentle breeze encircled Du Yu’s feet, starlight splashing, following the Immortal Master’s figure, he floated upward as well.

Dark clouds rolled, thunder rumbled.

The master and disciple slowly flew upwards, and for some reason, Yang Qingqing suddenly looked down at Du Yu.

”What’s the matter, Master Qing?” Du Yu looked curious.

Yang Qingqing just quietly watched Du Yu, still not responding.

Indeed, he was already a Great Demon Tamer.

And his combat skills, courage, and strategy were growing at a visibly rapid pace.

Perhaps, she should adjust her mindset.

No longer seeing Du Yu as a disciple who needed protection, but as a capable warrior, a companion in adversity.

Du Yu had no idea that his identity was quietly changing in the Immortal Master’s heart.

And the circumstances left him with no time for such considerations!

His eyes narrowed slightly, speaking in a deep voice, ”Master Qing!”

”Hmm?” Following Du Yu’s gaze, Yang Qingqing raised a hand to look upward.

Dark clouds rolled, lightning flashed.

A massive beast’s skull slightly emerged from the dark clouds, staring at the master and disciple below the cloud sea.

Ancient Niuniu?

”Gulp.” Du Yu’s Adam’s apple moved involuntarily, feeling the immense pressure.

So that’s what you look like...

This is just too cool, isn’t it?

The horns were shiny, wrapped in fine currents.

Its enormous eyes were mesmerizing, gleaming with brilliant electric light.

What a mighty Ancient Demon Saint!

Majestic and imposing, worthy of its formidable reputation!

By the way, just how big is this guy?

”Moo!!!”

The roar was earth-shattering and deafening.

Even though Du Yu had consumed a Jia Rong Grass Fruit, it was a bit intimidating.

He waved his hand, appearing particularly friendly, ”Hello?”

The Ancient Niuniu stopped its cries, fixating on the tiny humans.

It glanced at the timid Du Yu, then at the cautious Yang Qingqing, seemingly... losing interest in them suddenly?

Then, the massive beast’s skull slowly retracted back into the dark clouds, disappearing without a trace.

”This...” Du Yu looked at Yang Qingqing, somewhat at a loss.

”It’s a good thing.” Yang Qingqing said softly, ”At least it didn’t attack us.”

”Not yet?” Du Yu grinned, ”Just now Niuniu aimed that lightning bolt at you with perfect accuracy, thanks to you eating the Jia Rong Grass Fruit.

Well... you were kind of obedient.”

Yang Qingqing: ???

Noticing the Immortal Master’s expression, Du Yu inwardly thought this wasn’t good.

Pushing Master Qing’s back, he led her towards the distant hill, ”Let’s go, Master Qing, let’s retrieve the Heaven Returning Wood, the wood’s been waiting impatiently.”

Not waiting for the woman to speak, Du Yu continued, ”The people outside are waiting for us too, let’s hurry, let’s hurry...”
