.>Three nascent soul cultivators flew towards a towering iron tower that pierced the heavens. The tower stood majestically between heaven and earth, appearing close at hand, yet every time Lu Xiaoteng...Lu Xia Tian looked around. With his divine sense, he could naturally distinguish the real from the fake. Besides one being true, all the others were false, just illusory shadows.
As the little crow kept playing with the small crimson ball, the phantoms became increasingly vivid.
This is a very simple request, I can do that! Just to make sure I understand, you want me to take the text within the > tags, translate it into English, and keep the HTML tags as they are Let me know if there's anything else I can help with!
At this point, Lu Xia Tian's pupils had contracted, fearing that even a sliver might be revealed. Inside this fiery red crystal disc, it was actually the art of fire control!
The little fire raven could break through its mysteries and display an unparalleled talent for fire control. Lu Xiaotian was still clueless, seeing things through a veil of mist. However, Lu Xiaotian knew one thing: the little fire raven's current evolution was about mastering fire control. It was a process from awkwardness to proficiency. Although this evolution was too fast, Lu Xiaotian couldn't understand it. He could only rely on his powerful divine sense to remember every detail and leave it for later analysis.
"Slow down a bit, I can't understand." Although he admitted to being unable to understand, Lu Xiaoteng wasn't embarrassed at all.
The little fire crow croaked in displeasure, its control over the flames noticeably slower.
This process lasted several days, and finally, the little fire crow swallowed the red fireball into its mouth, yawned, and transformed into a ray of light, disappearing into Lu Xiaottian's spirit beast pouch.
"This Fire Controlling Art is truly profound." Xiao Huoya returned to the spirit beast bag to rest. Lu Xiaottian frowned, pondered for over a month, but still didn't understand its mysteries. Perhaps it was his talent on this path that was too poor, or Xiao Huoya's comprehension was simply too high.
“Senior, the demonic body has been refined.” It wasn't until two months later that Zhan Yunliang came over.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
"Come here and let me see." Lu Xia Tian retracted his attention, for he had been continuously pondering the Fire Control Technique. He couldn't help but feel a bit dizzy. He thought to himself that it wouldn't be easy to master this Fire Control technique anytime soon. For now, he could only put it aside.
Zhan Yunliang reached out and brushed the storage bag. Gu Liehuo and Gu Hai's demon bodies simultaneously appeared. The demonic energy emanating from their bodies was unlike anything they had possessed before.
Lu XiaTian secretly thought that Zhan YunLiang was truly skilled, and he didn't know if it was his own ability or something else. At this time, Xiang YiHang also rushed over.
"Which of these two demonic bodies does Brother Xiang want" Lu Xia Tian asked.
“For now, I’ll still use the magic body of the Gullie Fire. It’ll also be convenient to handle things in the territory of the Unicorn Demon Mantis clan later on. I got a Magic Offering Token from the Gullie Fire, which is the proof for entering the altar. I’ll give this Magic Offering Token to Brother Lu. After my arrangements are complete, I'll disappear for a while. The demon altar recognizes tokens, not people.” Xiang Yihang threw a white stone tablet to Lu Xia Tian. On it was a four-legged demon beast baring its teeth and claws.
Item Yi then looked at Qi Yiang and said, "Since you know the method of refining this demon body, you must also know how to control it. Tell me the method of controlling the demon body."
Lu Xiaotian nodded and took the Demon Subduing Order.

“Yes, senior,” Jan Yunliang nodded, then carefully explained the method of controlling the magical body to Lu Xiaoteng and Jan Yunliang.
Not only did he mention the methods of controlling the demon body, but Zhan Yunliang also explained in general terms the usual practices of the two old demons, Gu Hai and Gu Liehuo.
"It's not that much trouble, just call the suspicious ones aside and kill them secretly." Xiang Yihang snorted after hearing this, retracted the demonic body of Gulie Fire, and went to refine it.
Lu Xiaoteng also took Gu Hai's demonic body and let Zhan Yunliang wait aside. He returned to the secret room of his cave abode. He set up restrictions around him to prevent being spied on,

Gu Hai's shell was taken out, and it was filled with magic energy identical to Gu Hai's. Lu Xiaotian looked up and down several times but couldn't see anything wrong.
"Help me take a look, is there anything strange about this demonic body" Lu Xia Tian asked the Dragon Lion within the Shifting Mirror.
"I am not a demon, nor do I understand this path. I can't see any merit in it. If you have doubts, you don't need to use this demonic body." Longshi said.
Lu Xiaitian frowned, ending his communication with the Dragon and Lion. He didn't act rashly for a while. After waiting for several days, Xiang Yihang had refined the magic body of Gu Liehuo and transformed into the appearance of Gu Liehuo before leaving the cave dwelling.
Zhan Yunliang was still cultivating in his cave dwelling by himself.
"Item One is safe, but whether the other party will tamper with things remains to be seen. However, this demonic body is extremely rare, let alone now, perhaps there will be a place for it in the future."
For several more days, the refined shell continued to be transformed into a plume of black smoke, swirling around Lu Xia Tian on all sides, enveloping him completely.
Gu Hai's carapace restructured on Lu Xiao Tian's body, in the blink of an eye, Lu Xiao Tian transformed into Gu Hai's appearance. Just at this moment, Lu Xiao Tian suddenly felt a sharp pain in his lower back, like being stabbed by a needle.
The pain vanished in a flash, followed immediately by a wave of icy air that surged into his body like a mountain collapsing or a tsunami. The violent and frigid primordial spirit almost instantly sent Lu Xia Tian reeling, on the verge of losing consciousness.
With that prick of the needle, injected into Lu Xia Tian's body was not only that immensely powerful primordial spirit but also an immensely powerful sinister magical power. However, in comparison, the disparity in primordial spirits was still greater.
"Ha ha, this old man has been trapped for so many years, now I can finally escape!" A deep voice reverberated in Lu Xia Tian's mind.
"Boy, it seems my grandson was right. You are indeed a cautious fellow. However, I've walked more bridges than you've traveled roads. No matter how many precautions you take, you can't possibly stop my methods!" The deep, gravelly voice boomed with laughter.
But the laughter suddenly ceased, replaced by panic. A powerful force pulled at him, and the old monster's immensely strong primordial spirit, which had nearly overwhelmed Lu Xia Tian, was inexplicably absorbed by an ancient mirror within Lu Xia Tian's body.
"What the heck is this" the monster cried out.
"I've imprisoned your things," Lu Xia Tian said coldly. He had long sensed something was amiss with Zhan Yun Liang, how could he be completely defenseless While refining the Gu Hai Devil Body, Lu Xia Tian used a strand of his primordial spirit to control the Shifting Mirror. Once there was any movement, he could immediately counterattack. Of course, this arrangement was aimed at the situation where the opponent was a Nascent Soul level primordial spirit. If the opponent had their own physical body and their strength was vastly different from his current self, then everything Lu Xia Tian did would be futile.
“Stop, you’ve been hit by my Kuaixing Nail. I’ve poured my painstakingly accumulated magic into your body. Without my primordial spirit controlling this magic, with your current cultivation level, you wouldn't be able to control this chaotic energy. In the end, you would only end up exploding from the backlash!” the old monster said urgently, “Let me go, and I will withdraw this magic. We can then live in peace, how about that”
"Controlling these powers won't be a concern for you!" Lu Xia Tian replied calmly. The old monster was right, this power was beyond the reach of even a Yuan Ying cultivator. Without the Qingguo barrier, if he wanted to survive, he would indeed have to listen to the old monster.
(Sān qī Chinese)ce Lu Xiaoteng, an oddball among cultivators, wasn't someone he could compete with. 。Even if he admitted defeat in front of Yu ZiMo and Cui Liu, he had made up his mind not to suffer this loss. 。Poo...
