The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

Qingxia Island, this island far away from the hustle and bustle, has gone through the baptism of ten years, but it seems to have been forgotten by time, and still maintains its tranquility and beauty that is not tainted by dust.

The scenery on the island is still charming, with green mountains rising one after another, clear streams flowing around the village, and the fragrance of flowers and the chirping of birds revealing the vitality.

The most eye-catching change is the increase in the population of the island, not only humans, but also many monsters. They either admire the power of the owner of the Shadow Tower or seek shelter, and together they weave a scene of harmonious coexistence on this land.

When Li Qing, his wife and children slowly landed on the island in the cloud boat, the three demons' eyes flickered with emotion.

Li Qing's eyes swept across every corner of the island, his heart filled with relief.

Under the cloud boat, there is a thriving scene. The newly built houses are scattered in an orderly manner. Children of both humans and demons are playing on the grass, while adults are working busy and orderly. It is a harmonious and peaceful scene.

Li Yanning, a young man who has experienced ten years of hardships, is now standing on the cloud boat, looking at everything in front of him, with a glimmer of expectation in his eyes.

He already knew from his father that this island belonged to his father and was the home he longed for in his heart.

"This must be the island my father runs. It's really magnificent." His words were full of admiration and yearning. At the same time, an idea quietly took root in his heart.

"I wonder if I can stay on the island and help my father manage it?" Li Yanning plucked up the courage and made his request to his father.

His eyes were firm and sincere, revealing his infinite longing for the future.

After ten years of experience, he finally understood today how precious a spirit stone or a pill is to those helpless monsters, but he can easily obtain them with the help of his parents.

Now that he has grown up, he also wants to do his part for his parents and earn resources for his practice with his own abilities, instead of asking his parents to worry about everything.

During the past ten years, Li Yanning has gone through many ups and downs. Not only has his strength increased greatly, but he has also honed his indomitable will and mature and stable character through experience.

Hearing this, Li Qing raised his lips to a gentle smile. Although he didn't know what his child was thinking, he knew very well that his child had grown up and was no longer the naive boy who needed his protection.

Li Qing nodded with satisfaction, expressing his agreement: "Okay, since you have this intention, I will let you do it."

“But remember, managing an island is not easy. It requires careful management to ensure long-term success.”

Li Qing would naturally not restrict the child's freedom anymore, and he had already told Li Yanning everything he had concealed, whether it was his and Chi Feng's cultivation or their power in the demon world.

Therefore, Li Qing would naturally not hide it anymore and let his child be trapped in the Takihai Pearl.

Instead, he decided to let Li Yanning try out his own ideas and what he wanted to do.

Since his child wants to manage the island, Li Qing believes that he should be given enough space and opportunities to display his talents.

……

Back to the island where Long Haizhu is located, the setting sun is like blood, sprinkling on the sparkling sea, covering the island with a layer of mysterious and gentle glow.

Li Qing and Chi Feng walked side by side into the palace on the main peak, passed through the lush forest path, and finally came to the refining room built by Chi Feng.

As for Li Yanning, he stayed on Qingxia Island, but his identity was not revealed. He just joined the island as a demon who came to seek refuge.

The refining room is built of ancient bluestone. Time has left mottled marks on its surface, but it cannot conceal the bursts of heat and vigorous vitality emanating from within.

As I stepped into the refining room, an indescribable wave of heat hit me in the face, as if I had instantly traveled to another hot dimension.

The surrounding walls are inlaid with various fire-attributed spirit stones, which emit a soft and steady light, providing a constant supply of energy to this world.

In the center, a huge refining furnace stands tall, with flames blazing inside it, like a sleeping fire dragon, ready to erupt with devastating power at any time.

Chi Feng took light lotus steps and slowly walked towards the refining furnace. Her figure looked particularly graceful in the firelight.

She opened her red lips and smiled gently at Li Qing, signaling him to be patient.

Then, she stretched out her slender jade fingers and lightly tapped the refining furnace with her fingertips, as if she was having some kind of mysterious communication with this instrument.

In an instant, the flames in the furnace seemed to be given life. They rolled and jumped, and finally condensed into a small and exquisite firebird, with hot flames burning on its wings, yet it was agile and elegant.

After circling in the refining furnace for several times, the firebird suddenly opened its beak and spit out a gray, round bead.

There was a faint black glow flowing on the surface of the bead, which formed a sharp contrast with the surrounding flames, making it look extremely mysterious.

The firebird lightly held the bead in its mouth, flapped its wings and flew high, piercing through the flame barrier of the refining furnace, and landed steadily on the outstretched palm of the Red Phoenix.

Chi Feng took the bead, and a gleam of satisfaction and fatigue flashed in his eyes.

Then, the flame turned into streams of light again and returned to the furnace to continue its eternal burning.

Chi Feng turned and walked towards Li Qing, gently handing the bead to him, with a hint of subtle tenderness and expectation in her voice:

"My dear husband, please look, this is the spatial treasure that I have re-refined after going through untold hardships, combining mist stone and black mud."

“Not only does it have a wider space inside, but it also has an unprecedented level of concealment.”

Li Qing took the bead and felt a warm touch coming from his palm, as if he was holding a piece of jade.

He looked at it carefully and found that although the bead was inconspicuous, it contained indescribable depth.

He tried to sense it with his spiritual sense, but found that his spiritual sense was like a drop in the ocean and could not reach the core of the bead at all.

He used his spiritual eyes to try to see through its internal structure, but all he saw was chaos, as if the bead did not exist in this world at all.

"It's incredible!" Li Qing couldn't help but exclaimed, "Madam, you really didn't let me down."

"The concealment of this bead is exactly what I dreamed of."

"With it, no matter what crisis the demon world faces in the future, we will have a safe haven. Even if we ascend to the spirit world in the future, it will be the best place for us to live."

Upon hearing this, Chi Feng showed a relieved smile on his face.

She knew well Li Qing's desire for security and his deep attachment to his family.

This bead is not only the pinnacle of her weapon-refining skills, but also a reflection of her deep affection for Li Qing.

"My lord, although this treasure is good, it still has many flaws." Chi Feng continued, "The white mist that permeates its interior is one of them. It comes from the fusion of mist stone and black mud."

"Since I have not yet fully mastered the method of refining fog stone and black mud, I can only forcibly integrate them into the magic weapon, causing the space to be filled with white fog like the great swamps in the Western Regions. Living in it may bring many inconveniences."

"But please rest assured, my husband, I will find a way to solve this problem in the future."
