Chapter 575

Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan stood at the place where the Nether Wolf disappeared. There was still a faint chill in the air. Fu Shaoping looked down at the ground. After the corpse of the Nether Wolf turned into a cloud of black smoke, it did not completely disappear, but left behind some precious monster materials. He squatted down and took a closer look. He found that the bones, fur and inner elixir of the Nether Wolf were intact, but were wrapped in a layer of faint black air.

"These materials are all rare treasures," Fu Shaoping whispered, with a hint of joy in his tone, "The bones of the Nether Wolf can be used to refine magic weapons, the fur can be used to make defensive robes, and the inner elixir is an excellent material for refining elixirs."

Nangong Wan nodded, a hint of caution flashing in his eyes: "However, these materials still have the Yin Qi of the Nether Wolf. We need to handle them carefully, otherwise they may be corroded by the Yin Qi."

Fu Shaoping took out a jade box and a special dagger from his storage ring and began to carefully peel off the fur of the Nether Wolf. His movements were extremely skillful, and the dagger moved between the fur and bones without leaving any unnecessary scratches. Nangong Wan performed a purification formation to the side, gradually dispelling the Yin Qi on the fur.

"Your technique is becoming more and more sophisticated," Nangong Wan said with a smile, with a hint of admiration in his tone, "It seems that your weapon refining skills have improved a lot over the years."

Fu Shaoping smiled slightly, his hands moving non-stop: "Refining equipment is like practicing, both require constant practice. If these materials are handled properly, perhaps they can be refined into a good magic weapon."

After stripping off the fur, Fu Shaoping began to process the bones of the Nether Wolf. The bones were as hard as iron, and the surface was faintly glowing, obviously containing powerful spiritual power. He took out a few talismans and attached them to the key parts of the bones to prevent the Yin Qi from leaking out. Nangong Wan continued to activate the formation to purify the Yin Qi in the bones bit by bit.

Finally, Fu Shaoping took out the inner elixir of the Nether Wolf. The inner elixir was dark black, with complex patterns on the surface, and exuded a strong cold and yin energy. He carefully placed the inner elixir in the jade box and pasted a few sealing talismans on the jade box to ensure that the yin energy would not leak out.

"The inner elixir is the most precious part of the Nether Wolf," Fu Shaoping said, with a hint of solemnity in his tone, "If it is used to refine pills, it may be possible to refine a pill that can break through the realm. However, we need to find an alchemy master to ensure that there is no risk of error."

Nangong Wan nodded in agreement: "That's right, the Yin energy of the inner elixir is too strong. If it is not handled properly, it will be counterproductive. We can put these materials away first and make plans when we return to the Chamber of Commerce."

The two of them put the skeleton, fur, and inner elixir of the Nether Wolf into the storage ring. After confirming that nothing was left out, Fu Shaoping stood up and patted the dust off his hands: "This time we have gained a lot, and it can be regarded as a reward for our efforts."

Nangong Wan smiled slightly, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes: "Yes, with these materials, our strength can be greatly improved. Next, we will continue to look for other tasks and strive to exchange for the 'Tianxiang Pill' as soon as possible."

After Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan left the Nether Valley, they went straight back to the Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber of Commerce hall was bustling with people coming and going, but the two did not stop, but went directly to the task delivery area. The manager was looking down at the task scroll, and when he saw the two people coming, he looked up and asked, "Are you two here to deliver the task?"

Fu Shaoping nodded, took out the mission certificate and the materials of the Nether Wolf from the storage ring, and placed them on the counter: "This is the Nether Wolf material required for the 'Nether Valley' mission, please check it."

The steward heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he carefully examined the materials. When he saw the bones, fur and inner core of the Nether Wolf, his face gradually became shocked. He picked up the inner core, looked at it carefully for a moment, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "This... This is actually a complete inner core of the Nether Wolf! And the bones and fur are also preserved so well! How did you two do it?"

Nangong Wan smiled slightly, and said calmly: "We were just lucky, and with some cooperation, we barely completed the task."

The steward shook his head, his tone full of admiration: "The Nether Wolf is one of the most difficult monsters in the Nether Valley, and its twelve magical powers make it hard to defend against. To be able to hunt it down and bring back such a complete set of materials, you two must be really powerful!"

Fu Shaoping smiled calmly: "Manager, you are too kind. We are just doing our best. I wonder if this mission is completed?"

The manager nodded quickly: "Of course it is completed! Moreover, the materials you two brought back are of extremely high quality. The Chamber of Commerce will reward you with an additional 500 contribution points as an encouragement."

A hint of joy flashed across Nangong Wan's eyes: "Thank you, Manager."

The steward added the contribution points to the identity tokens of the two people, and took out a jade box and handed it to Fu Shaoping: "This is the reward for the task, 'Nether Grass', please keep it. In addition, if you are still interested, the Chamber of Commerce has some tasks with high contribution points recently. I wonder if you are interested in accepting them?"

Fu Shaoping took the jade box, thought for a moment, and asked, "What is the mission?"

The steward took out a scroll, unfolded it and said, "Recently, a 'Red Flame Tiger' appeared in 'Black Wind Ridge'. Its strength is comparable to that of a Jindan-stage cultivator. The Chamber of Commerce has issued a hunting mission, with a contribution point of up to 2,000 points. However, this mission is extremely risky, and many cultivators have failed."

Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan looked at each other, with a hint of interest in their eyes. Fu Shaoping nodded and said, "We'll take this mission."

The steward was delighted when he heard this: "You two are indeed very courageous! Here is the mission certificate, please keep it. I wish you two a successful start!"

After leaving the Chamber of Commerce, Nangong Wan asked in a low voice: "Shao Ping, the Red Flame Tiger is very powerful, do we need to make some preparations?"

Fu Shaoping nodded, his tone steady: "The Red Flame Tiger is indeed difficult to deal with. We need to prepare some magic weapons and elixirs that can restrain fire attributes. In addition, I plan to refine a defensive magic weapon from the bones of the Nether Wolf in case of emergency."

Nangong Wan agreed and said, "Okay, I will prepare some formation materials, and then we can set up the 'Ice Formation' to suppress the fire attribute magic of the Red Flame Tiger." After the two of them discussed it, they went to prepare. Fu Shaoping returned to his residence, took out the bones of the Nether Wolf, and began to refine the magic weapon. His technique was skillful, and his spiritual power flowed through the bones, gradually refining it into a piece of armor. Nangong Wan began to make a formation plate, engraving the ice attribute runes one by one.

After Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan were ready, they set out on the road to "Black Wind Ridge". Black Wind Ridge is located in the northwest of the Chamber of Commerce. The terrain is steep and it is shrouded in black fog all year round. It is rumored that monsters are rampant and extremely dangerous. The two of them traveled quickly and occasionally encountered some low-level monsters on the way, but they were easily dealt with.

Three days later, the two finally arrived at the foot of the Black Wind Ridge. Looking up, the Black Wind Ridge was towering into the clouds, and the mountainside was shrouded in black mist. The roar of monsters could be heard faintly. Fu Shaoping stopped, took out the task scroll, and carefully checked the trace information of the Red Flame Tiger.

"According to the scroll, the Red Flame Tiger often moves around the 'Red Flame Cave' on the mountainside," Fu Shaoping said in a low voice, his eyes solemn, "Its fire attribute magical power is extremely overbearing, we must be careful."

Nangong Wan nodded, took out a few array plates from the storage ring, and handed them to Fu Shaoping: "This is the 'Ice Sealing Array' array plate I made, which can suppress the fire attribute magic of the Red Flame Tiger. In addition, I also prepared some 'Ice Talismans', which can buy us time at critical moments."

Fu Shaoping took the formation plate and smiled slightly: "With the help of your formation, our chances of winning are a little better."

The two continued to move forward to the mountainside. As the altitude increased, the temperature around them gradually increased, and the air was filled with a scorching breath. Suddenly, a deafening tiger roar came from the front, and then a huge red flame tiger rushed out of the black fog and blocked the two.

The Red Flame Tiger was covered in red fur, its eyes were burning like flames, and it was surrounded by blazing flames. It roared, and the flames spread instantly, burning the surrounding ground black.

Fu Shaoping quickly summoned the "Nether Wolf Armor", which emitted a faint glow, isolating the burning sensation of the flames. Nangong Wan immediately activated the "Ice Sealing Array", which turned into an ice-blue light curtain, suppressing the flames of the Red Flame Tiger.

Seeing the flames being suppressed, the Red Flame Tiger roared, and activated the first magical power "Red Flame Storm", and a strong wind mixed with blazing flames swept in. Fu Shaoping formed seals with his hands and shouted, "Daluo Vajra Seal!" A golden seal condensed in front of him, turning into a huge golden shield to block the Red Flame Storm.

Nangong Wan saw this and immediately strengthened the formation: "Iceland!" Her formation increased the power of the ice wall several times, and the flames of the red flame tiger were completely suppressed. The red flame tiger was not willing to be outdone, and launched its second magical power "Red Flame Claw", and countless flame claws attacked the two from all directions. Fu Shaoping quickly sacrificed the "Star Scimitar", and the blade light was as bright as a star, and collided head-on with the flame claws.

Nangong Wan used the "Star Body Protection Formation" to increase the power of Fu Shaoping's sword. The star scimitar cut through the flame claw shadow and approached the red flame tiger. The red flame tiger roared, and the third magical power "Red Flame Clone" was activated. Its figure instantly turned into three phantoms, and it was difficult to distinguish the real from the fake. Fu Shaoping frowned and quickly sacrificed the "Twelve Thunder Swords", and shouted: "Taiyi Sword Formation!" The twelve swords turned into a sword formation, breaking the phantoms of the red flame tiger one by one.

Nangong Wan saw this and immediately used the "Illusion Destruction Formation" to increase the power of the sword formation to the extreme. The phantom of the Red Flame Tiger was completely defeated, and its true body was revealed. The Red Flame Tiger was forced into a desperate situation, and roared, and three magical powers were activated at the same time, and the sky and the earth changed color. Fu Shaoping took a deep breath and sacrificed the "Innate Spirit Treasure Broken Sword", and the sword body exuded an ancient and powerful aura. He shouted in a low voice: "Flying to Subdue Demons!" The broken sword turned into a golden light and pierced the Red Flame Tiger. Nangong Wan used all her strength to activate the formation: "Subdue Demons Formation!" Her formation increased the power of the broken sword to the extreme, and the golden light penetrated the body of the Red Flame Tiger. The Red Flame Tiger let out a shrill wail, and its body began to disintegrate.

After the battle, Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan breathed a sigh of relief. Fu Shaoping put away his magical power, looked at Nangong Wan, and smiled: "Thanks to your formation assistance, otherwise this battle would not have been so smooth." Nangong Wan wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled: "Your magical power is amazing, I am just the icing on the cake. However, this red flame tiger is indeed powerful. If we didn't cooperate well, I'm afraid it would be difficult to win."

Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan stood in front of the corpse of the Red Flame Tiger, and the air still lingered with a fiery breath. Although the corpse of the Red Flame Tiger had been killed, its fur, bones, and inner elixir still emitted powerful spiritual fluctuations, which were obviously rare and precious materials.

Fu Shaoping squatted down and carefully examined the corpse of the Red Flame Tiger. A hint of joy flashed in his eyes: "The fur of the Red Flame Tiger can be used to refine fire-attributed defensive magic weapons, the bones are an excellent material for refining fire-attributed flying swords, and the inner elixir is the core material for refining the 'Red Flame Pill'."

Nangong Wan nodded, with a hint of caution in his tone: "However, there is still blazing fire attribute spiritual power left on the corpse of the Red Flame Tiger. We need to be careful when handling it, otherwise we may be burned by the fire spiritual power."

Fu Shaoping took out a special jade box and an ice-attribute dagger from his storage ring and began to carefully peel off the fur of the red flame tiger. His movements were extremely skillful, and the dagger moved between the fur and bones without leaving any unnecessary scratches. Nangong Wan performed the "Ice Sealing Array" on the side, gradually suppressing the fire-attribute spiritual power on the fur.

"Your skills are becoming more and more sophisticated," Nangong Wan said with a smile, with a hint of admiration in his tone, "It seems that your weapon refining skills have improved significantly over the years."

After stripping off the fur, Fu Shaoping began to process the bones of the Red Flame Tiger. The bones were as hard as iron, and the surface glowed with a faint red light, which obviously contained powerful fire spiritual power. He took out a few ice-attribute talismans and attached them to the key parts of the bones to prevent the fire spiritual power from leaking out. Nangong Wan continued to activate the formation to suppress the fire spiritual power in the bones bit by bit.

Finally, Fu Shaoping took out the inner elixir of the Red Flame Tiger. The inner elixir was red, with complex flame patterns on the surface, emitting a strong hot breath. He carefully placed the inner elixir in the jade box and pasted a few sealing talismans on the jade box to ensure that the fire spirit power would not leak out.

"The inner elixir is the most precious part of the Red Flame Tiger," Fu Shaoping said, with a hint of solemnity in his tone, "If it is used to refine pills, perhaps it can refine a 'Red Flame Pill' that can break through the realm. However, we need to find an alchemy master to ensure that there is no risk of error."

Nangong Wan nodded in agreement: "That's right, the fire spirit power of the inner elixir is too strong. If it is not handled properly, it will be counterproductive. We can put these materials away first and make plans when we return to the Chamber of Commerce."

The two of them put the bones, fur, and inner elixir of the red flame tiger into the storage ring. After confirming that nothing was left out, Fu Shaoping stood up and patted the dust off his hands: "This time the harvest is not small, and it can be regarded as a reward for our efforts."

After returning to the Chamber of Commerce, Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan handed the corpse of the Red Flame Tiger to the deacon. After checking it, the deacon nodded with satisfaction: "You two are indeed extraordinary. The mission has been completed and the contribution points have been credited to the account." The two checked their identity tokens and found that the contribution points increased by 2,000 points. Nangong Wan smiled and said: "We are one step closer to 10,000 contribution points."
