Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

Chapter 539: Obtaining Resources through Deception

```

"Isn’t this improper?" Xu Ping’an swallowed and said.

At this moment, Qing Huo’s dress was already soaked through, revealing explosive curves that were intermittently visible.

If one were to approach her now, one might see some details of her skin.

"Just come over if I tell you to, are you afraid I’ll eat you up or something?" Qing Huo said annoyedly.

Letting this guy take advantage, and he’s still hesitating.

As if he’s suffered a great loss.

"Alright." Xu Ping’an hesitated for a moment but still moved closer.

Soon, Xu Ping’an was less than a meter away from Qing Huo.

At such a close distance, Xu Ping’an could clearly see Qing Huo’s body.

Those explosive curves almost made the Qi-Blood inside Xu Ping’an boil.

It must be said, Qing Huo’s figure was nearly perfect to the utmost.

Plus, with her incredibly beautiful face and bewitching charm, even Xu Ping’an found his heart and mind wandering.

"Keep looking, and I’ll gouge out your eyeballs," Qing Huo glared fiercely at Xu Ping’an, her eyes filled with a murderous intent.

Xu Ping’an sneered in his heart.

At such a close distance, plus with your severe injuries, it’s still uncertain who will live and who will die.

Of course, Xu Ping’an did not show it, as he was frantically absorbing the energy inside the Nine Heavens Mysterious Ice Cold Pool.

His Metal Attribute True Elemental had already started the Heavenly Sword Nine Transformations, and had now completed the Eight Variations process.

He was proceeding towards the Nine Transformations.

Meanwhile, the Fire Attribute True Elemental, due to the potency of the Fire Phoenix Pill, had also broken through to the realm of the Heavenly Sword Eight Variations.

With the help of the pill, it should also be possible to break through to the Heavenly Sword Nine Transformations.

In this way, all three of his Attribute True Elementals could reach the peak of the Nine Transformations.

Of course, the spatial attribute was also constantly absorbing, almost completing the first transformation.

One could say that Xu Ping’an’s strength was comprehensively enhancing.

"Take this object and use it to protect me while I heal," Qing Huo, the Divine Emperor, said.

As she spoke, a bronze lamp appeared before her.

This bronze lamp contained a tremendously horrifying Fire Attribute power.

"Is this... a Superior Grade Immortal Artifact?" Xu Ping’an asked, somewhat astonished.

"Correct, this is the Long Yan Lamp, a Superior Grade Immortal Artifact from Ancient Times, refined from the oil of an ancient true dragon corpse, containing the immensely terrifying power of the True Dragon Heavenly Flame. You stimulate this lamp and release the Power of the Heavenly Flame; I need to absorb the power of both this Nine Heavens Xuanyu Cold Pool and the Heavenly Flame to heal," Qing Huo said.

Xu Ping’an immediately understood the intention Qing Huo, the Divine Emperor, had for calling him.

She planned for him to use his own True Yuan to stimulate the lamp and heal her.

Clearly, Qing Huo cultivated with Dual Attribute of ice and fire, so to heal herself, she needed to absorb both the ice and fire attributes.

Moreover, the Cultivation Technique Qing Huo practiced must maintain a balance between the two powers, otherwise, problems would arise once the balance was lost.

However, the True Yuan required to stimulate a Superior Grade Immortal Artifact was too vast.

Obviously, Qing Huo was planning to use him as a tool.

Once her injuries recovered, Xu Ping’an’s True Yuan would be exhausted.

Killing two birds with one stone.

But in Xu Ping’an’s view, Qing Huo’s calculation was likely to fall through.

This Long Yan Lamp was a good thing after all, and since it had landed in his hands, she can’t blame him for being impolite.

Although the Long Yan Lamp had Qing Huo’s Soul Mark which others could not erase, with the Chaotic Flame that Xu Ping’an possessed, he could easily erase it.

In this way, if Qing Huo dared to do him harm, he could easily control the Long Yan Lamp.

"Good, I’ll start stimulating it," Xu Ping’an began to stimulate the Long Yan Lamp as Qing Huo had requested.

As the True Yuan was poured in, an overwhelming Power of the Long Yan emerged from the Qing Huo Lamp.

This power of the Long Yan was strong, not any weaker than some daunting Heavenly Fire, and perhaps even stronger.

However, compared to Xu Ping’an’s Chaotic Flame, there was still a certain gap.

```

```

"The consumption of True Yuan by the Long Yan Lamp is indeed tremendous, but that’s for others, my Chaotic Reversal Scripture absorbs energy at an even stronger rate," Xu Ping’an murmured to himself.

Thinking about exhausting his True Yuan was nothing but a dream to him.

"Perhaps I can add a little something extra for you," Xu Ping’an muttered to himself.

He then summoned the Chaotic Flame within his body and mixed it in with the power of the Long Yan.

These powers were quickly absorbed by the Qing Huo, once they merged into the power of the Long Yan.

However, it would be impossible for Qing Huo to fully digest this surge of Chaotic Flame in a short period.

Moreover, since the amount Xu Ping’an mixed in was extremely scarce, Qing Huo did not realize it for the time being.

In truth, it wasn’t that Qing Huo couldn’t detect it, but rather she never even fathomed that Xu Ping’an would possess the Chaotic Flame.

Xu Ping’an felt the Chaotic Flame hiding within the body of Qing Huo.

Just at the crucial moment, if he were to stimulate the Chaotic Flame, though it wouldn’t cause serious harm to Qing Huo, it could catch her off guard.

With these arrangements, Xu Ping’an felt much more at ease in his heart.

However, Xu Ping’an didn’t dare to infuse too much, for fear that Qing Huo would discover it.

Therefore, he only injected three strands of Chaotic Flame into Qing Huo’s body, but that was completely sufficient for Xu Ping’an.

Even though activating the Long Yan Lamp caused Xu Ping’an significant consumption, his absorption rate was even faster.

So quickly, Xu Ping’an’s Metal Attribute True Elemental and Fire Attribute True Elemental had both achieved Nine Transformations.

Even his Spatial Attribute had reached the level of Three Transformations.

At this thought, a surge of joy filled Xu Ping’an’s heart.

Thus, his strength was now truly comparable to the Ninth Rank Ninth Layer Realm.

This gave him the ability to arm-wrestle with the woman before him.

As the Qing Huo continued to absorb two powerful forces, her injuries also recovered significantly, her complexion was no longer pale, and it regained a tinge of color.

"Hmph, just you wait until my injuries recover a bit more, then it will be your death," Qing Huo muttered to herself.

While she was thinking this, Xu Ping’an suddenly halted.

"Why have you stopped, who told you to stop?" Qing Huo immediately exclaimed in anger.

"Senior, I really can’t hold on any longer, the True Yuan consumption by the Long Yan Lamp is just too immense, I have exhausted all the True Yuan in my body," Xu Ping’an hastily said.

"Useless!" Qing Huo cursed incessantly.

Was this guy’s True Yuan really so meager?

It hadn’t been that long, not even the time it takes one incense stick to burn, and he couldn’t hold on?

"Senior, why don’t you give me one of those Fire Phoenix Pills from earlier, I feel like I’m going to freeze to death," Xu Ping’an immediately pleaded poverty.

Qing Huo cursed inwardly non-stop.

Even she felt the pinch at the loss of a Nine Phoenix Pill.

To think it was wasted on such a useless person.

"Here are three Nine Phoenix Pills, you must hold on for at least one Hour," Qing Huo said.

After she spoke, she handed Xu Ping’an three Fire Phoenix Pills.

Upon seeing the Fire Phoenix Pills, Xu Ping’an’s heart immediately leapt for joy.

As expected, if he just pretended to have his True Yuan exhausted, he could gain some benefits.

Without hesitating, Xu Ping’an swallowed a Fire Phoenix Pill, seemingly continuing to activate the Long Yan Lamp while consuming the pill’s medicinal power.

In reality, he was voraciously devouring the medicinal power of the Fire Phoenix Pill, transforming it into his True Yuan.

His Spatial Attribute True Elemental continued to rise, quickly reaching the level of Five Transformations.

Then Xu Ping’an continued with the next pill, continuing the absorption.

Qing Huo, watching from the side, was grinding her teeth.

This guy had consumed one elixir so quickly?

He was beyond worthless.

At this rate, three pills wouldn’t last even one Hour.
