Chapter 1259 Expert Takes Action
Yunxi spent a month in seclusion refining the clone of Linhan. Difei stayed by her side the whole time and gained a new understanding of Yunxi's weapon-refining skills. She was once again glad that she had made a wise decision to take on the mission of teaming up with Yunxi to enter the Langhuan Secret Realm.
Yunxi held the hammer and ice-cold water for the final round of hammering, and sent the refined clone into the Purple Jade Dragon Cauldron to solidify its shape. This time she used Tang Jihan's cold extraction technique, with the two strange flames, Purple Smoke and Taixu, taking turns to refine it. After it was finished, she even heard muffled thunder.
Startled, Di Fei got up to check. After confirming that the lightning tribulation would not fall, she looked at Yun Xi. Her intense gaze was almost unbearable for Yun Xi.
Yunxi infused a drop of Linhan's heart's blood into the newly crafted clone, then waved her sleeve to put "Linhan" away. She then raised an eyebrow and looked at Difei, saying:
"Alright, stop flirting with me, it's creepy. Just say what you have to say."
Di Fei immediately put on a fawning smile and moved closer to Yun Xi, saying:
"Immortal Lord Ranxi, could you perhaps craft a clone for me when you have some free time?"
Yunxi glanced at the other person:
"Provide your own materials, and I will charge you separately for my work."
Di Fei hurriedly replied:
"make a deal."
Then she started digging out her collection. She had been waiting for Yunxi to say this. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for her. She hadn't expected Yunxi's weapon-refining skills to be so superb.
Yunxi sorted through the things Difei had brought out, put away the materials for refining the clone, and selected a few rare and precious materials that she didn't have as payment. The agreement between the two was thus fulfilled.
Di Fei maintained a smile throughout, as long as she could get the clone.
While Yunxi was meditating and adjusting her breathing, she entered the space chat group and contacted "Star Trek".
"Have any scalable clones been created?"
Star Trek: "Yunyan, I was just about to contact you. The previous ten attempts at cultivation all ended in failure. We are now cultivating the last one."
After seeing the reply, Yunxi frowned and asked directly:
"Have you found out why it failed?"
Star Trek: "I found out. It seems that our culture medium is not providing enough energy for the embryos to grow, but I'm using military-grade culture medium, so this shouldn't be the case."
Yunxi frowned. She should know where the problem lay. The descendants of the Demon King needed pure demonic power or pure immortal energy. After all, this child was a product of the union of a human and a demon, and the interstellar culture medium simply could not meet the needs of its growth.
So she replied:
"This might be related to the child's parents. I'll go find some energy that's more suitable for his growth. Please wait a moment."
Then her consciousness left the chat group, and she turned to Di Fei and said:
"Difei, please go see Nanming and ask him for some inner cores of the three-eyed golden monkey. They should have preserved some inner cores of their fallen clansmen. Just tell him it's for his child, no further explanation is needed."
"it is good."
Di Fei didn't ask any more questions, and quickly left the temporary cave dwelling before going to see Nan Ming.
Nanming remained by Linhan's side, but his expression grew increasingly grim. He could sense that even though his lover was frozen, the fragments of the evil artifact continued to fuse with the child in her womb after adapting to the freezing. This was not a good sign, and although it was very slow, it still made him anxious.
Di Fei's appearance made his eyes light up, and he immediately asked:
"Have you finished refining it?"
Difei shook her head and said:
"It's almost done. Qianjiao said that refining the fetus's clone requires your clan's inner core."
Nanming frowned, seemingly angry. He couldn't bring himself to ask his clansmen to sacrifice themselves for that unborn child.
Upon seeing Nanming's expression, Di Fei knew that he had misunderstood, and immediately explained:
"It's not about dissecting your own inner cores, but about finding the inner cores of fallen members of your clan that are preserved, preferably those with intact energy."
After hearing this, Nanming's brows relaxed, and he asked in a deep voice:
"How many do you want?" Di Fei replied.
Three.
This quantity was something she had planned in advance. She and Yunxi each had one, and the remaining one would be used to refine the fetus's clone. She couldn't miss this opportunity to legitimately fleece the fetus.
Nanming did not leave, but sent a message to Elder Jinlie. Half an hour later, Difei returned with the inner cores of three seventh-tier three-eyed golden monkeys.
Elder Jin Lie glanced at the frozen Leng Han, said nothing, and turned to leave the cave.
When Yunxi saw the inner core that Difei brought back, she raised an eyebrow and let Difei choose one. She took the other two and then sent one of them, along with ten top-grade immortal stones, to "Star Trek," explaining how to use them.
Star Trek: "I received the items and will use them as you instructed. Are you sure these can replace the culture medium?"
"I'm sure, and don't even think about keeping these things for research. The children I'm having you raise have parents with unique genes that aren't universal, so you'd better not try it lightly."
After thinking about it, Yunxi decided to give "Star Trek" a heads-up.
"Star Trek" on the other end of the chat group rubbed his nose. He had actually considered it, but after seeing the prompt from "Fleeting Clouds," he chose to obey.
After a brief exchange, Star Trek took the two items that had been teleported to the incubation room and instructed his researchers to place them in the culture medium. He personally supervised the petri dishes, monitoring the data in real time.
If this attempt fails again, he really won't be able to explain it to Guoyanyunyan, and it will be difficult for him to get good things from them in the future.
Just as Nanming was getting impatient and asked Jin Lie to urge him, Yunxi and Difei arrived at Nanming's cave with the clones they had created.
Nanming suppressed his anxiety, waved his sleeve to open the barrier, and let Jin Lie, Jin Ting, Yun Xi, and Di Fei enter. Finally, he fixed his gaze on Yun Xi.
Yunxi stepped forward and cupped her hands in greeting:
"Nanming Demon King, my sister and I have successfully completed our mission and have finished crafting our clones. Now it is up to you all."
Nanming nodded solemnly and said:
"Don't worry, we'll do whatever you say."
Without further ado, Yunxi flicked her sleeve and released a powerful energy shield to cover Nanming's cave, preventing the fragments from escaping. Then, she first released Linhan's clone for Nanming to see, ensuring that even if Linhan perished, the problem wouldn't stem from the clone she had created.
Looking at the lifelike Ling Han, Nan Ming immediately extended a wisp of his divine sense. After confirming that there were no hidden dangers, he nodded and said:
"Cloning is no problem."
Yunxi waved her sleeve again, releasing a transparent water tank containing a fully formed infant. The infant remained quietly in the culture medium with its eyes closed, but the aura emanating from it ignited a burning desire in the eyes of Jin Lie and Jin Ting, who were standing nearby. This was the aura unique to their three-eyed golden monkey.
Nanming remained calm. After scanning the water tank with his divine sense, he frowned and looked at Yunxi with his dark eyes. Only Yunxi could understand the deep meaning in his eyes.
She smiled slightly and said:
"Demon King of the Southern Underworld, may we begin?"
"can."
