Chapter 245 Beginning to Refine

Although she didn't know how this young girl managed to assassinate Saint Emperor level powerhouses, the heads of the five Saint Emperor powerhouses were indeed in the bag.

It was clear that this young girl was not as simple as her two-star Heavenly Sovereign cultivation level suggested.

After a long while, Elder Li finally came back to his senses, his trembling and stuttering voice filled with excitement, "You little lass, you truly are a firecracker. I've been in the Mission Hall for almost fifty years, and this is the first time I've seen a new disciple who completed an Owl-level mission just two months after joining the Killing Heart Sacred Court, and from the Asura Hall at that!"

"Now that you mention it, I do feel rather amazing."

Hearing Elder Li's praise, Mu Qingqing couldn't help but feel a little proud.

Mu Qingqing's words made Elder Li frown. He subconsciously asked, "Little lass, I recall you being Mu Ci from the Asura Hall. Why is it that after going out on an assassination mission, your personality seems to have changed quite a bit? I remember you seemed rather dull and listless two months ago..."

"Uh... I'm a bit slow to warm up. After all, two months have passed, and this young lady has naturally become less reserved."

Mu Qingqing paused, then blinked her beautiful eyes, feigning naturalness to gloss over it.

After all, Elder Li was unaware that the body of Xin Ci was currently being controlled by her, the second personality.

Elder Li was merely surprised for a moment and didn't think further. He then recorded the assassin points into Mu Qingqing's identity token.

Ten Ghost-level missions and five Owl-level missions.

These assassin points were not insignificant.

Ghost-level missions typically awarded between one hundred to one thousand assassin points, while Owl-level missions awarded from one thousand up to ten thousand.

The ten assassination missions that Mu Qingqing and Xin Ci had jointly completed totaled thirty-five thousand assassin points.

This amount was sufficient to exchange for the method of refining a physical body.

Furthermore, due to Mu Qingqing's completion of an Owl-level mission, Elder Li, after recording the information on her identity token, added a brilliant golden character "Owl" to it.

This indicated that Mu Qingqing had already become an Owl-level assassin. She had been ranked as "None" before, and in just two months, she had been promoted to Owl-level.

This speed was enough to astound other disciples.

Mu Qingqing retrieved her identity token from Elder Li, bowed in thanks, and then hurriedly left the Mission Hall.

Not long after Mu Qingqing's departure, another graceful figure approached the counter.

Elder Li glanced at the newcomer, shook his head, and sighed, "You should rest too. You've almost completed a hundred Ghost-level missions in these two months, Luo Ningshuang."

The newcomer was none other than Luo Ningshuang, who had taken on twenty Ghost-level missions in the past two months.

Luo Ningshuang had visited the Mission Hall several times in these two months, each time accepting twenty or more Ghost-level missions.

And her completion speed was astonishing.

Elder Li had never seen this girl rest and thus wanted to persuade her.

However, Luo Ningshuang was not listening. She once again picked twenty Ghost-level missions from the mission wall, all of which involved dealing with the Nether God clan.

This girl was quite stubborn and wouldn't listen to any advice.

Elder Li felt helpless and could only let her have her way. As he took Luo Ningshuang's identity token to record the missions, he couldn't help but mutter, "The disciples of your Asura Hall are truly one by one astonishing. That little lass Mu Ci completed five Owl-level missions in two months, and you, girl, have completed over a hundred Ghost-level missions tirelessly in two months."

"Even though the Asura Hall is now sparsely populated and short on talent, the two of you are pushing yourselves too hard!"

"Mu Ci? Who is that?" Luo Ningshuang frequently went out on assassination missions and was unaware of Mu Ci's affairs. She rarely even returned to the Asura Hall.

"It's normal that you, a mission fanatic, don't know. That lass Mu Ci is a new disciple of your Asura Hall, and she is truly remarkable. After joining the Asura Hall for only two months, she has already become an Owl-level assassin."

Owl-level assassin!

Luo Ningshuang, who was always cold and aloof, finally showed a hint of surprise.

She had joined the Asura Hall thirty years ago and was only a Ghost-level assassin. Her True Essence realm was at the peak of Five-star Heavenly Sovereign, just one step away from the Saint Emperor realm.

And her junior sister, Mu Ci, who had only recently joined the Asura Hall, had leaped to become an Owl-level assassin. This was truly

unbelievable for Luo Ningshuang.

Luo Ningshuang glanced at her identity token, murmuring Mu Ci's name, her thoughts unknown.

Then she looked up, her expression resolute, as if she had made an important decision, and turned to gaze in the direction of the Asura Hall.

Elder Li, seeing Luo Ningshuang's determined expression, had a feeling that this girl was about to do something troublesome again. He was worried but could do nothing to stop her.

After leaving the Mission Hall, Mu Qingqing switched back to her main personality, allowing Xin Ci to control the body.

Upon returning to the Asura Hall, Xin Ci immediately went to the Scripture Pavilion to exchange for the method of refining a physical body.

With the method for refining a body in hand, Xin Ci's face lit up with joy. He eagerly entered the Alchemy Room, eager to begin refining bodies for Elder Han and Mu Qingqing.

Elder Han also appeared beside Xin Ci in his soul form, guiding him in the refining process.

As the Undying Phoenix Flame churned within the Crimson Flame Cauldron, the heat gradually increased, and the temperature rose steadily.

The Alchemy Room became noticeably warmer.

However, Xin Ci maintained a solemn expression, controlling the Undying Phoenix Flame and dedicating himself entirely to the refining process.

The Nine Yang Spirit Ginseng Emperor, Five Elements Spirit Pill, Purple Crystal Jade Bone, and Immortal Golden Dragon Blood, four heavenly spiritual materials, flew out from the Sumeru ring and began to circle around the Crimson Flame Cauldron.

Under the inextinguishable flames of the Undying Phoenix Flame, these four heavenly spiritual materials gradually fused together, and two complete bodies began to take shape.

Although the refining process was relatively smooth, Xin Ci's energy was significantly depleted, and large beads of sweat dripped down his forehead.

However, Xin Ci gritted his teeth and persevered, his taut nerves showing no signs of slackening.

Just a little longer, and he would be able to forge these two bodies.

This way, Mu Qingqing and Elder Han would both have perfect physical bodies.

Xin Ci's refining process lasted for an entire day.

As a five-colored stream of light erupted from the Crimson Flame Cauldron, soaring into the sky and emitting a dazzling radiance.

The entire Asura Hall was enveloped in this magnificent five-colored light. Disciples from the other three halls also noticed this astonishing spectacle and turned their gaze towards the Asura Hall.

"Such an astonishing celestial phenomenon, who is refining a Saint-grade supreme treasure?"

"Wait, look in that direction, it seems to be where the Asura Hall is located."

"No way, isn't the Asura Hall mostly deserted now? Then who could have caused this celestial phenomenon?"

...

Everyone murmured amongst themselves but couldn't figure out who had caused such a celestial phenomenon.
