“The Luo Family, Demon Refining?”

This title naturally made Jiang Yun think of a Demon Refiner, and this was also what he planned to ask Old Hei about this time, as Old Hei himself was a Yao.

“Hmm, this Luo Family actually doesn’t have much strength, but it’s said to be from the Demon Refiner lineage. Plus, successive Family heads have been good at management, so they have quite good relationships with many Sects and Families… ”

At this point, Old Hei suddenly stopped speaking, shaking his head and saying, “But the one you’re going to shouldn’t be this Luo Family, because the Demon Refining Luo Family and your Wen Dao Sect don’t have a very good relationship.”

Jiang Yun didn’t care which Luo Family he was going to; what he cared about was the issue of Demon Refiners, so he asked, “Old Hei, what is a Demon Refiner, and what is a Heavenly Yao?”

As soon as Jiang Yun’s question left his mouth, Old Hei’s pupils couldn’t help but constrict slightly. He looked up at Jiang Yun and said, “Let me ask you first, a few days ago, I sensed the Qi of a Heavenly Yao within the Wen Dao Sect. What happened?”

“This…”

Although Jiang Yun trusted Old Hei very much, he also knew about the hostile relationship between Demon Refiners and Yaos. And since the Demon Refining Brush belonged to Lu Xiaoyu, he was worried that if he told the truth, Old Hei would be unfavorable to Lu Xiaoyu, so he could only vaguely say, “Nothing much, it’s just that when I was breaking through Hundred Beast Peak, a trace of Demonic Qi from a Heavenly Yao burst out from within the Illusory Beast Diagram.”

After speaking, Jiang Yun’s face turned red. Although his words weren’t entirely false, for someone who never lied, it made him extremely uncomfortable.

Seeing Jiang Yun’s expression, how could Old Hei not understand that Jiang Yun wasn’t telling the truth? However, he didn’t press further, revealing a look of sudden realization. “So that’s it. There’s actually a Heavenly Yao hidden within the Illusory Beast Diagram!”

“Yaos are all-encompassing. The number of races far exceeds that of humans. Beast Yaos, plant Yaos, and even mountains and rivers, etc., can all become Yaos.”

“As for the Cultivation Realms of Yaos, they are exactly the same as those of human Cultivators, all having Tongmai Realm, Blessed Land, Dongtian, etc. It’s just that the Yao Race, to better distinguish the strength of a Yao, gives a different title to Yaos who reach a certain Realm.”

“Look! The original chapter is on z\

“A Heavenly Yao refers to a Yao that can occupy a heaven, or even an entire world!”

Originally, Old Hei was going to explain in more detail, but considering that Jiang Yun’s Cultivation Realm was too low at the moment, letting him know some things too early would not benefit him. Therefore, he ultimately only gave a simple explanation.

However, this was enough to shock Jiang Yun!

He never expected that Bai Ze, who was imprisoned in the Demon Refining Brush, was actually the strongest being in a world. No wonder a single breath of Demonic Qi from him could make Spirit Beasts comparable to Dongtian cultivators tremble in fear.

Although Bai Ze had said that his heaven was not the heaven of the Mountain and Sea World, no matter what, the strength of a powerhouse who could occupy a world was simply beyond Jiang Yun’s current imagination.

However, even such a powerful existence was imprisoned in the Demon Refining Brush by a Demon Refiner. This naturally made Jiang Yun even more curious about what kind of existence a Demon Refiner was.

“Old Hei, what is a Demon Refiner?”

“Demon Refiner!” Mentioning these three words, a cold glint appeared in Old Hei’s eyes, and his gaunt face also showed an expression that Jiang Yun couldn’t understand.

After a long silence, Old Hei continued, “A Demon Refiner, while seemingly just a human who is hostile to Yaos, is actually not.”

“Ordinary Cultivators can only kill Yaos or subdue them with force, but a Demon Refiner can subdue, command, Seal, and Fuse Yaos through various special methods! They can even refine Yaos into Medicinal Pills!”

Jiang Yun was slightly stunned and said, “Refine Yaos into Medicinal Pills?”

“Hmm, you are an Alchemist, you can perform Alchemy; and Demon Refiners can also perform Alchemy. It’s just that your Materials for Alchemy are all-encompassing, while a Demon Refiner’s Materials for Alchemy are only Yaos.”

“To refine an entire Yao into a Medicinal Pill, can you imagine that?”

Jiang Yun couldn’t help but gasp. Although he also needed to use beasts when performing Alchemy, he would only take certain parts from the beast. He had never heard of refining an entire beast into a Medicinal Pill, and he couldn’t even imagine it.

“Then what’s the use of the Medicinal Pills refined from Yaos?”

“They are extremely useful! A Yao Pill, in simple terms, is a Medicinal Pill that has been refined from all the essence of a Yao. This Yao Pill contains the Yao’s talent, Cultivation, techniques it knows, and even the Dao it pursues!”

“Therefore, whether human or Yao, if they encounter a Yao Pill, they will absolutely spare no expense for it!”

“Besides refining Yaos into Medicinal Pills, a Demon Refiner can also help Yaos quickly increase their strength and achieve the Great Dao.”

“A Demon Refiner can Fuse two Yaos using special methods, allowing one of the Yaos to gain all the strength and even innate abilities of the other Yao!”

“Even the lowest-grade Yao, as long as the Demon Refiner’s ability is sufficient, that Demon Refiner can continuously evolve that Yao in their hands!”

“Therefore, Yaos, towards Demon Refiners, can be said to both hate and fear them, yet also have a strong longing. If a Yao can be recognized and kept by a Demon Refiner, then it is absolutely a shortcut to achieving the Great Dao.”

Previously, Jiang Yun had already gained some understanding of the Demon Refiner’s power through a simple Demon Subduing Seal, and now, with Old Hei’s explanation, he had a more detailed understanding. He never expected that a Demon Refiner was such a miraculous and powerful existence.

At this moment, Old Hei looked at Jiang Yun with deep meaning and said, “However, becoming a Demon Refiner is not easy, because it requires absorbing Demonic Qi, and it is extremely dangerous for humans to absorb Demonic Qi. With even a slight mistake, there is a high possibility of being assimilated by the Demonic Qi, becoming an existence that is neither Yao nor human.”

“Throughout history, countless people have coveted the identity of a Demon Refiner and embarked on the path of Demon Refining, but those who truly managed to become Demon Refiners are very few.”

How could Jiang Yun not understand that this was Old Hei’s kind reminder to him? However, after understanding the power of a Demon Refiner, he had an even stronger desire to become one.

Because Jiang Village was full of Yaos!

If he could become a Demon Refiner, then he might be able to help his grandfather and the others achieve the Great Dao!

Perhaps sensing Jiang Yun’s inner longing, or perhaps touching upon some past memories of his own, Old Hei suddenly seemed a bit dispirited. He said to Jiang Yun, “Jiang Laodi, you really need to go out and experience some good tempering. As for the matter of Alchemy, it’s still the same old saying, I’m not in a hurry.”

“However, when you are out alone, you must be careful in everything, after all, both human hearts and Yao hearts are too treacherous! I don’t have anything to give you, but here is a token I used back then. If you encounter the Yao Race, taking it out should still be somewhat useful!”

Under Old Hei’s insistence, Jiang Yun had no choice but to accept the token made of beast bone that Old Hei handed him. The character “Hei” was carved on it.

At the same time, a trace of shock suddenly flashed across Gu Bu Lao’s face, who was on Hidden Peak. He muttered to himself, “What is his relationship with Old Hei? Old Hei actually gave him the Black Yao Token!”
