Ah Chun: Ascending The Heavens 191 Refining The Palace Part One

Ning Shen did not know what to do so he could only go over to Ah Chun and give her a hug. This seemed to calm her down a bit but she was still upset. After letting out her anguish for a little while in Ning Shen's embrace Ah Chun finally collected her self. "Shen I will search for a way to make this body grow older..."

"Chun'er no matter what I will always be with you. For now, let us get out of here. I'm sure everyone is worried." Ning Shen said while he patted Ah Chun's back.

"Un… But before we leave I'm taking this palace with us..." Ah Chun said as she turned around and looked at Li Ju. "Senior I will do my best to refine this palace. To be honest I have no choice but to refine this palace. I may have some protection from the tribulations. But Shen does not. And there is no telling if the tribulations will one day break past the barrier within my body. I can not risk such a thing happening. I will do whatever it takes to refine the palace." Ah Chun's eyes blazed with determination. She had to do this not just for her self but for Ning Shen as well. Also for her promise with Li Ju as well.

"Little La.s.s I will be waiting. The door over there will bring you to the palace entry. Good luck." Li Ju said. He did not know if she would be able to refine this palace. He figured she only had a ten percent chance to do so. He could only hope that she succeeded. 

"Un..." 

Ah Chun nodded and took Ning Shen's hand as they entered the door. They reappeared at the entrance of the palace. After which they left the palace through the large doors. When They exited they saw some new meat trying to edge their way into the area of the palace. "Shen your turn I will work on refining the palace." 

Ning Shen smiled as he nodded his head. "Un! I will go have some fun then." Ning Shen's body flickered as he headed towards the little lambs who came to be slaughtered. 

Ah Chun smiled and then turned to face the palace and then sat down. After quickly adjusting her state of mind. Ah Chun sent her divine sense into the palace. Once the Divine sense entered the palace all Ah Chun could see was darkness. It was as if the inner workings of the palace was nothing but an abyss of nothingness. Ah Chun continued to search around in this darkness but still found nothing that even resembled the core of the object. In order for Ah Chun to successfully refine the palace, she would need to find its core. Only then by refining the core could she refine the palace. 

It was just that right now Ah Chun had not been able to spot the core. Normally the core of an item would be visible right away. These cores would be guarded by many barriers. With each barrier being harder to breakthrough. After searching around a bit and finding nothing, Ah Chun retracted her divine sense. She sat there while lost in thought trying to come up with a way to refine this palace. After much thinking, it dawned on her that maybe the dark abyss was the first barrier. If that was true how would she break through such a barrier? Once again Ah Chun got lost in thought. After another good while, Ah Chun suddenly got an idea.  She was not sure if it would work since she had never tried to do anything like this before. Not even in her past life had she ever thought to try something like this.

The idea in a way was quite simple. She would wrap law energy with her divine sense and then inject it into the abyss. If it goes as planned she should be able to break through the first barrier.  She would use the law of fire. Her idea was to bring something that contained light into the core s.p.a.ce of the palace to see through the darkness. With her plan settled Ah Chun did just that. She took a few strands of fire law and wrapped it with her divine sense. Then she injected her divine sense into the palace. Once she was back in the dark abyss, she released the law energy within the dark abyss. As soon as the law energy was released it gave off a blinding light. The dark abyss seemed to have come across its worst enemy as the dark abyss shrank back and started to melt away. 

Ah Chun was very happy that her plan worked. It was just that it seemed to have worked a little too well. She had only expected to break through the first barrier but the strand of law energy continued to smash through barrier after barrier until finally the core was exposed. Seeing the core Ah Chun immediately sent her divine sense into the core.  

The world around Ah Chun changed, she was no longer in the dark abyss but on what seemed to be a battlefield. Dead bodies were strewn all over the place. The smell of blood filled the air. This scene caused Ah Chun's blood to boil. The killing tent in her body exploded forth filling the surrounding area.

"Haha! Little La.s.s to think you had such killing intent  on such a small body." A voice sounded out. Ah Chun looked up to see a man standing in the air. His robes fluttered in the wind. 

Ah Chun looked at the man in front of her as she furrowed her brow. "Li Ju? No his soul fragment..."
