Chapter 1145 - 714: Peerless? One and Only!
Beautiful Immortal Deer, Great Success City.
In the arms of the male and female owners, Bai Yujing enjoyed the caresses of the two, comfortably closing her deer’s eyes as she gradually crossed the cultivation threshold.
"Nai~" Accompanied by the gentle cry of the deer, a gust of wind spread out.
Countless sparks were interspersed, dancing gracefully, creating a splendid scene.
Demon Taming General·Great Success Stage!
Under the influence of the turbulent energy within her body, Bai Yujing couldn’t help but stand up.
She raised her deer head high, allowing the colorful flowers to drift in the wind, exuding a fragrant aroma.
Du Yu watched with joy, observing the beautiful Bai Yujing, but as he continued to watch, a tinge of worry crept into his heart.
Xiaobai’s size had grown a bit more.
This was just a Small Tier advancement, what if she ascended to Demon Taming Emperor; how monstrous could she become?
Such a giant deer was becoming increasingly unsuitable as a mount.
But it might be a good idea to change his perspective and sit on Xiaobai’s head instead?
The snow-white antlers could serve as handgrips~
"There’s news from Kunlun." The cold voice suddenly broke in, pulling Du Yu back to reality.
"What have they decided?" Du Yu asked.
Yang Qingqing lifted her palm, and the Beautiful Immortal Deer, gentle and obedient, naturally lowered her deer head, pressing it against the woman’s hand.
"As the Emperor’s Minister, they wish to stay and will attempt to control it by other means." Yang Qingqing looked at the beautiful Immortal Deer, "As for the Cold Beast Demon Saint·Thundercloud Peng, they’re going to dispose of it."
"Oh." Du Yu nodded, "Then when can I use the Demon Fire?"
Yang Qingqing: "That Thundercloud Peng Demon Saint will be taken care of by us."
"Huh?" Du Yu blinked. That Cold Beast Demon Saint was under the Emperor’s control; they could just slaughter it directly.
Du Yu could even pass on a message, and as long as the Cinnabar Red Demon Flame gave the thought, it could command the Thundercloud Peng to commit suicide.
Yang Qingqing: "The body of the Cold Beast Demon Saint is a huge source of pollution and cannot remain in this world.
In accordance with the military’s typical disposal methods, its corpse should be tossed into the Bottomless Abyss."
This prompted Du Yu’s thoughts: "To Great Xia, the Cold Beast Demon Saint is difficult waste to manage.
But to Master Qing, the Demon Saint’s corpse is excellent cultivation material!"
Yang Qingqing smiled at her bright disciple, "When the time comes, you can also enter the Jade Gourd and extract the Demon Soul of the Cold Beast Demon Saint."
"Goodness~" Du Yu grinned.
This is what they call a match made in heaven... uh, that’s roughly what it means, I guess.
Master Qing’s Jade Gourd imprisons and refines the beast’s flesh.
My Shadow Gu Tower absorbs and refines the beast’s Demon Soul.
Truly an all-inclusive service!
All living things are thoroughly consumed between these mentor and disciple, leaving not a trace.
But why does it feel like these are the ruthless methods only villains should use?
The more he thought about it, the more peculiar Du Yu’s expression became.
He raised his eyes, looking at the graceful Immortal Shadow caressing the Beautiful Immortal Deer.
Within a few short seconds, Du Yu felt at ease in his heart.
How could my Master Qing be a villain when she’s so beautiful~
"Let’s go to Kunlun," murmured Yang Qingqing.
"Right!" Du Yu stepped forward, patting the snow-white thigh of Bai Yujing.
After retrieving Bai Yujing, Du Yu bid farewell to the Twin Trees, and then activated the Mountain and Sea Bell.
"Hoo~"
With the flickering of the Bell Shadow, the mentor and disciple arrived at the center of the Prince Du’s Mansion - the living room.
"I’m going to change clothes."
"Alright." Du Yu watched Master Qing’s departing figure, just responded when the Golden Leaf rolled up a phone and handed it to him.
There were as many as two missed calls, both made around 8 a.m.
Wang Zongying?
Du Yu was delighted at heart; was the bookstore finally granting rewards?
The final exams were on August 1st, and now it was September 16th, a whole month and a half, it had finally arrived.
Looking at the time, it was past 2 in the afternoon, right during work hours. He immediately called back.
"Xiaodu!" As soon as the call connected, an excited male voice came from the other side.
The voice was so loud that Du Yu had to slightly turn his head.
"Xiaodu?" There was no response for a while, prompting Wang Zongying to raise his voice.
"Ah, Brother Wang."
Wang Zongying was delighted yet somewhat anxious.
To be called "Brother Wang" by Du Yu, Wang Zongying deemed it an honor of three lifetimes!
Wang Zongying sighed with emotion: "Your reward is ready, including a ring, a Demon Lamp Tree seedling, and a specially customized bow.
See when you have time, Xiaodu, to come and collect it?"
Hearing this, Du Yu felt a bit dissatisfied: "They said it was a specially made Demon Soldier for me, but the bookstore dismissed all my requests?"
Last month, the final exam recordings of the Paper Crane Disciples were publicly broadcasted.
As they were repeatedly aired across major television stations, acknowledged under public supervision by the people of Great Xia: Du Yu’s first-place achievement was truly deserved.
Afterward, Du Yu had some communications with the bookstore.
Having claimed first place in major exams multiple times, Du Yu was quite adept at making requests to the bookstore, but unexpectedly, the bookstore gave an unusual response.
Du Yu was originally supposed to choose between a Demon Pet and a Demon Soldier, but the bookstore simply crossed out the Demon Pet and stated it would give Du Yu a Demon Soldier Bow.
This wasn’t an issue, as Du Yu also desired a custom Demon Soldier.
The bigger issue was that the bookstore refused Du Yu’s custom demands for the Demon Soldier.
Regarding the outcome of the Demon Soldier Bow, whether its Demon Soldier Array would be offensive, defensive, control, or support-type, all would be determined by fate.
This made Du Yu immensely curious!
What kind of rank Demon Weapon Master had the bookstore even invited, so high and mighty?
Denied any requests, what kind of customization was this?
"Rest assured, Xiaodu!" Wang Zongying sighed again, "I promise! You will definitely like this bow... it is no Mortal Grade!"
Du Yu asked with curiosity: "What type of Demon Soldier Array is it?"
"It should be of the support type."
"Should be? Support type?" Du Yu felt a bit frustrated; he preferred the control type.
But since things had come to this point, there wasn’t much Du Yu could say, he just asked: "What level is it? What material?"
The other end of the call went silent.
Du Yu was even more puzzled, asked: "Brother Wang?"
Wang Zongying finally responded: "It’s hard to say, you’d better come and see for yourself."
Du Yu: "..."
Can the riddler just go to hell?
Du Yu was not very happy and said, "Speak!"
If it were him in his rookie days, uttering such a word would be harmless, and others might not even care.
But now, he was no longer the Du Yu of the past.
He was now a Demon Taming General, a true powerhouse.
Compared to Du Yu’s strength, his reputation and the illustrious achievements he had made could overwhelm the people of Great Xia!
Wang Zongying was indeed quite frightened and dared not play riddles again; he said directly, "Twin Trees material."
"What the hell!" Du Yu’s mouth was slightly open, a little incredulous at what he had just heard!
Twin Trees material?!
Oh my goodness~
No wonder the library insisted Du Yu must take a Demon Soldier and not a Demon Pet, and also no wonder the library did not allow him to specify the type of Demon Soldier Array.
All of this was predetermined by the Twin Trees!
Who would have the right to make demands when the Twin Trees made a bow from their own material?
Who would dare to make demands?
Wang Zongying spoke again, "Mortal Level quality bow."
"What the hell?" Du Yu, who was already bewildered, was even more baffled.
The majestic Twin Trees made a bow from their own material, only to create the lowest grade Mortal Level Demon Soldier?
This...?
Wang Zongying said softly, "Xiaodu, Brother Wang didn’t lie to you; it really wasn’t easy to explain over the phone."
Du Yu: "..."
Indeed, Du Yu’s mind was now buzzing, both surprised and confused.
Wang Zongying: "When will you come to collect your prize?"
"I..." Du Yu stopped speaking, with his gaze catching a glimpse of a graceful figure.
He turned his head to look for a long time, but couldn’t see what new clothes Master Qing was wearing.
Hmm... maybe it’s the same dress again.
"Xiaodu?"
"Ah." Du Yu snapped back to reality, "I have to go on a mission, I’ll find you after I return to the Ancient Pine Tower."
"Alright." Wang Zongying’s voice became very serious, "Stay safe, and I wish you all the best."
The other party clearly knew what level of missions Du Yu was carrying out, and even imbued his farewell words with blessings.
"Mhm, thank you." Du Yu responded as he hung up the phone.
"Who?" Yang Qingqing asked casually.
"People from the library, asking me to collect a prize." Du Yu looked quite strange, "The custom-made Demon Soldier this time is actually made from Twin Trees material."
"Oh?" Yang Qingqing was also somewhat surprised.
The Twin Trees, as the Mother of the Great Xia Demon Spirit Civilization, were not something everyone could meddle with.
And their good disciple...
Is actually about to own a bow made of Twin Trees material?
It sounds quite dreamy.
This Demon Taming job, Du Yu has really mastered it thorough!
Thinking about it, Yang Qingqing said, "Your Ice-colored Jade Marrow Bow was lost in the South Suburbs Bottomless."
The time he lost the bow was when Du Yu was struck by the branches of the Cold Tree that had broken free and later encountered members of the Cold Race.
It was also that time when the Divine Tree first truly contacted Du Yu, inviting him to Kunlun to burn the Bottomless Cold Tree.
"Mhm..." Listening to Master Qing’s words, Du Yu was filled with emotion, "So, the Twin Trees gave me one."
"Let’s go to Kunlun," Yang Qingqing said softly, "You can take this opportunity to thank the Twin Divine Trees in person."
"Okay!"
Since Master Qing had already contacted Kunlun’s side, Du Yu did not hesitate any longer and immediately swung the Void Axe.
The two walked side by side, stepping onto the peak of Kunlun.
Despite it being September of the golden autumn, the summit of Kunlun Mountain was a vast expanse of white, with heavy snow falling.
Du Yu was still wearing a grey short-sleeved shirt and shorts, looking somewhat reckless...
Not far away, a squad of soldiers stood, noticing the master and disciple’s arrival, the leading soldier immediately stepped forward.
Du Yu walked to the back, placing a hand on a withered giant tree, "Divine Tree, you made a bow for me?"
The ancient voice echoed in Du Yu’s mind, "Do you like it?"
"I like it! I really like it!" Du Yu nodded heavily, even though he hadn’t seen the bow yet, "Thank you, Divine Tree."
The ancient voice came again, "I preserved its potential, giving it infinite possibilities.
And you will be its Demon Weapon Master.
In your hands, it will eventually grow into what you desire."
"This..." Du Yu stared blankly at the withered tree in front of him, his shock was indescribable.
Am I actually the Demon Weapon Master?
This bow, I’m supposed to use and nurture it?
So... a Growth-type Divine Weapon?
Of course, the Holy Grade Demon Soldiers in this world are all Growth-type Divine Weapons.
But that kind of "growth" is on a totally different conceptual level from the "growth" of the Twin Tree Bow.
Other Holy Soldiers grow on their own, finding the Road to Heaven would be as lucky as burning high incense.
While the Twin Tree Bow would grow entirely based on Du Yu’s preferences...
And let’s not forget, there are countless Demon Soldiers in the world, but how many Holy Soldiers are there?
They are a small handful of extremely fortunate beings that stand out from an enormous base of Demon Soldiers.
When any Demon Soldier is born, no one dares to guarantee that it can ultimately become Holy.
But the Demon Soldier gifted to Du Yu by the Twin Trees made it clear at its birth: this bow holds the potential to become Holy!
And even beyond that!
What level are the Twin Trees?
Supreme?
No! Even beyond Supreme!
This Demon Soldier can’t be accurately described as a rare treasure.
It’s custom-made by the Twin Divine Trees themselves, especially for Du Yu!
Undoubtedly, this is the only one in the world!
The Divine Tree said solemnly, "Grow alongside it, Du Yu.
Take it to protect you and your Demon Pet, take it to eliminate the Cold Beasts and cleanse the world of the Bottomless."
Du Yu pressed his palm firmly against the withered tree of the divine spirit, his expression resolute, "Du Yu, will not let down the expectations of the Divine Tree!"
