Devouring the Heavens (ATG)

Chapter 32: The Elemental Forge (part-2, R-18)



Shane reached out and ran his trembling fingers along the handle, feeling a deep resonance between himself and the newly formed weapon.

He tightened his grip and hefted it out of the air, expecting but still not totally prepared for the difference in weight compared to his old one.

*Uffff* With a concentrated effort, he managed to lift it onto one of his shoulders and with a bit of difficulty, turned to look at Qingyue. Her little mouth was still wide open at the rather incredible sight she had just witnessed.

Shane took a step forward only to stumble as his foot sank several inches into the soil. Scratching his nose awkwardly he said. "Uhhh. I will need to get used to that."

It wasn't really that bad, it just ruined his cool image a little, the thing must have weighed at least 1000kg okay!

Qingyue finally snapped out of her daze and giggled a little before running towards him. He stored the hammer away in a panic as she reached his front and crashed into his chest.

She took a deep breath in through her nose and began running her hands across his muscles.

"Umm... Qingyue dear." "I'm just checking to make sure you didn't hurt yourself!" She hastily albeit poorly defended her actions but didn't stop them. In the end, he had to slap her hands away so that he could clean himself off with profound energy.

Sitting down in the chair, his lap and then his lips were quickly claimed by his little wife. She broke the kiss after a few seconds and clapped her little hands. "Congratulations! That was amazing. Qingyue has never seen or heard of anything like that before!"

She seemed even happier and more energetic than he was, evident by the fact that she called herself in the third person without realising.

"Mhmm. It worked just as I hoped it would" He said before burying his face in her hair and squeezing her tight. "I just need to recharge from my cute little wife and then we can make the next one."

"Next one?" She asked, confused. Shane's teasing grin returned. "Well, obviously I can't be the only one with a badass weapon now can I?"

She hugged him tighter and kissed his face all over before a little bit of panic entered her eyes. "H-husband, Qingyue loves you but Qingyue doesn't want a hammer." She whispered meekly.

"Hahahahahaha! No, my dear, hammers are manly and handsome. What you need is something that personifies you, something noble and elegant. Beautiful yet deadly." he pinched her nose and Qingyue's previous happiness came flooding back as she preened under his indirect praise.

They sat together like that for a few minutes until Shane's mental strength recovered and he felt ready to start again. This time it would be different and hopefully easier.

Qingyue's element was Ice and the cold beauty image really did it for her, so naturally, the new weapon would have to mirror that.

Shane had a rather crazy idea for a way to form her a blade, but it would hopefully succeed if they both worked together as one.

This time, the forging process was much shorter as he only needed to forge a hilt, pommel and a guard. With the purified Spirit Profound Core from the spear, some more ores and another 5kg of Purple Veined Divine Crystals, the process was much less draining on his mental strength and went without incident.

The concept of growth was also successfully imbued and with a few drops of Qingyue's blood added to the mix, it was soulbound to her.

Once the hilt, Guard and pommel were formed, it was time for the complex and adventurous part to begin, the forming of the blade...

Allowing the flames in the centre of the forge to die out but the rest of the structure to remain, Shane explained to Qingyue what he wanted her to do. She seemed sceptical at first but still chose to believe in him anyway and so she nestled into Shane's arms with her back facing him and placed her hands atop of his.

With a thought, Coral and Dusty returned to their tattoos.

A handful of refined profound energy 'pills' appeared in his mouth, ready to be used as a quick refill at a moment's notice. Taking a few deep breaths through his nose and clearing his mind, Shane placed his lips to the back of Qingyue's head as a signal to begin.

They both started channelling the Frozen Cloud Arts and the surrounding temperature dropped by dozens of degrees almost instantaneously. A flash of chilling blue light spread out rapidly from their bodies and a sheet of ice started to extend out from beneath them at an alarming rate.

The surrounding air turned completely white with ice, snow and frost as it fell all around them without pause.

The air was as frigid as purgatory and although unaffected by it, the breaths of the two still turned into ice crystals in front of their faces.

Shane's profound energy emptied almost immediately and he grit his teeth as the 'small world' tried hard to compensate. 'It's not enough!'

Feeling another, more gentle, profound energy connecting with his own, Shane crunched the 'pills' in his mouth without another thought. Immediately an immense current of warm energy surged through his veins and into the connection.

He relinquished complete control to Qingyue as he heard her utter three words in a serene yet chilling voice. "Frozen… Cloud… Domain…".

Gathering the full might of his Will, Shane managed to catch hold of the domain at the edges, right before it escaped their makeshift enclosure and gradually started to compress it toward the forge and the hovering hilt…

After what felt like hours but was probably no longer than a minute, Shane was drenched in sweat but had successfully managed to condense the power of a Throne into a raging blue sphere 1m across.

Feeling a slight pressure in his temples, a prickling pain behind his eyes, and a few warm trickles running down his face yet having no way to care about it, Shane commenced with the final and consequently most dangerous step.

The pain became worse as the domain was further compressed and his eyes were becoming blurry but it was so close to completion and failure at this point would be catastrophic for the both of them.

So he grit his teeth and pushed on...

Shane desperately gathered the remainder of his Will and with one final push, the compressed domain was forced to enter into the core at the pommel.

A meter long, bright blue, freezing cold yet absolutely beautiful blade suddenly burst out from the hilt and flashed once before the entire Elemental Forge and Shane himself collapsed.

"Shane!" Qingyue's heart tearing scream echoed throughout the clearing and the last thing he saw before blacking out was her horrified and tear-stained face, thinking to himself. 'That was when Shane knew, he fucked up.'

-----------------------------------

*Sniff sniff sniff* "Please be okay." *Sniff sniff* "Husband if anything happens to you, Qingyue will immediately accompany you" Shane heard her before he saw her and even that was enough for his chest to feel like it had been pierced with a red hot poker.

He couldn't leave her to suffer like that so he forced his eyes to open.

*groan* "Gahhh the light! Somebody get me some aspirin." It turned out that overusing his Will and ignoring the signs was like asking for the mother of all migraines.

"Shane! Are you okay? please be okay, I was so scared!" Qingyue practically shouted from somewhere above him. It was only at that point, that he realised they weren't outside any longer. Feeling the softness beneath him and currently not willing to risk using his spirit sense, he guessed they were back in his courtyard.

"Not so loud, please. I'm okay. I just need some herbs or pills or a profound beast corpse as I currently can't access my storage. Can you get some for me? You should have a few of those pills left over, right?"

Qingyue didn't respond and instead, he felt something soft press against his lips while a hand pinched his jaw. A wet and slimy object passed a few small pills into his mouth and Shane swallowed them while sluggishly responding to the kiss.

He guided the energy towards his head and felt a cooling sensation spread across his overheated brain. Healing it as it went. 'Note to self, Don't try to push and control an actual Domain while in Spirit Profound. No matter how much of a cheat you are.'

Finally feeling some of his mental faculties coming back, Shane opened up his storage and dropped a bunch of herbs and corpses into his hands, where they erupted into a white mist before being sucked into the little black swirls on his palms.

There were still dozens of Elementary Profound corpses left in his inventory but he was running out of those of Nascent and above. The Elementary Profound corpses basically did nothing for him anymore, another hunting trip was on the cards sometime soon…

Feeling the vital energy take hold and heal him up and consequently nourishing his mind, Shane opened his eyes only to see the heartbreaking sight of Qingyue's tear-stained face. He raised his hand up to her cheek to brush away the teardrops

*Slap!* His hand was ruthlessly knocked away.

He had never seen such rage in her eyes before. "Don't you ever do something like that again! I-I-I can't lose you too! P-please d-don't leave Qingyue! Qingyue will do anything! waaaa!" She started strong but her voice cracked halfway through and by the end, tears were flowing freely from her eyes like a broken pearl necklace.

If Shane didn't feel like an asshole before, he sure as hell did now. Even though it would have been extremely dangerous for Qingyue if Shane let his control over the domain go, he didn't make excuses and just swept her up into his embrace.

He apologised to her over and over in his heart while mentally berating himself. 'How could I be so stupid? She had obviously never gotten over her mother leaving and now she views me on the same level of importance as her mother.

Of course, she would react like that, I was too busy playing happy families with her to notice how vulnerable she was underneath.'

Never wanting to put her through something like this again, the fire inside him ignited and began to burn with the desire for strength.

Qingyue accepted the hug and cried all her grievances out while hitting his chest. Those punches weren't light either, she was a Spirit Profound Realm cultivator.

Feeling helpless, he could only brush his fingers through Qingyue's hair and try to soothe her worries. What she needed now was an assurance rather than an apology. "Shhh, silly girl. Don't worry. I won't leave you, not now, not ever. You can't escape me in this lifetime."

Her tears didn't stop but she rose from his embrace and dropped her robes to the floor before diving right back onto him, hungrily kissing and sucking on his lips. The salty taste of her tears mixing together with her saliva and further permeated his mouth with each passing second.

It broke his heart and he promised himself to never put her through something like this again.

Qingyue dug her fingernails into his shoulders and nibbled his bottom lip and knowing what she wanted, Shane's shorts quickly vanished back into his body.

Feeling his nakedness, she began to frantically rub her soft, nubile body against him as the intoxicating fragrance of his wife's arousal entered his nostrils and evoked his own lust.

With one hand and most of her strength, she pushed him back onto the bed, while reaching down with the other and aligning his shaft with her entrance. Qingyue rolled her hips, and the head slipped inside her welcoming tunnel with only the slightest resistance.

Without hesitation, She firmly gripped his shoulders and pushed herself down with force. Shane's rod disappeared into her syrupy vagina, sheathing him all the way to the base in one go and causing her thighs to slap against his pelvis

"Ahhhh" Qingyue's mouth left his and she let out a long contented moan at the familiar fullness.

Momentarily twisting her hips left and right to get used to the sensation, she raised herself up before slamming back down, impaling herself over and over with reckless abandon.

"Ahhn… mmm… mmm..." Her heavenly moans were accompanied only by the repeated flesh smacking sound of her buttcheeks on his thighs.

No longer content with being passive, Shane's hands went to her hips, speeding up her movements and increasing the power while her nails dug further into his shoulders.

Qingyue collapsed against his chest and her lips desperately sought his own, locking together in a battle of tongues full of hunger and passion.

His grip tightened on her waist and her movements sped up further as her inner walls did their best to milk him dry. She started to add a rotation to her hips as he guided them up and down causing them both to groan in pleasure.

Qingyue's back arched when he began moving his own hope and Shane's mouth took this opportunity to find its way to her beautiful pink nipples. He latched onto one, rolling his tongue over the tantalising little cherry and making her back arch further.

Her fingers tangled in his hair and she yanked his head into her chest while he sucked and nibbled on them to his heart's content, never stopping the movements of her waist all the while.

Shane grazed his teeth across her nipple and she gasped at the new sensation. When he bit down a little harder, her pussy clamped down on him even harder and her moans became even louder and more frequent than before. "Mmm… mmm… mmm…"

The room was filled with the sound of their skin colliding, Shane's grunts and his wife's moans. Within minutes, they were both gasping for air, drawing ever closer towards that sweet release.

Qingyue reached her limit first, her walls tightening like a vice around his cock, undulating against his shaft and massaging it as she moaned wantonly.

In the peak of her pleasure, her movements slowed but she didn't want it to stop, her mesmerisingly beautiful eyes, clouded by lust, locked onto his, pleading with him to just grab hold of her and fuck her into oblivion.

This was far from the gentle or playful lovemaking they usually engaged in but after today, she needed to be fucked, she needed him to cum inside her and she needed to really feel him, to know that he was still here.

Shane was the same, he understood her completely and there was no way he would stop now either.

Holding onto her pillowy buttcheeks, he started thrusting rapidly into her from below and after just a few seconds, he felt the familiar rush of warmth building in his balls.

Pulling her hips down onto him as far as he could and crashing their lips together again once, Shane's rod started twitching inside her as spurt after spurt of scalding hot semen hit the back of her womb.

"Ahhhhhh!" Feeling him filling her up, Qingyue's back arched like a fully drawn bow. She began to shudder in ecstasy and a warm fluid gushed out over his crotch followed by a loud, high pitched moan escaping her lips.

When the last drop had been emptied inside of her, she collapsed on his chest like a puppet with her strings cut.

A few moments later, only the soft sounds of breathing could be heard within the room. Shane looked down, only to find that she had fallen asleep on his chest with him still inside of her.

He tucked some loose strands of hair behind her ear, kissed her on the forehead and pulled a sheet over the top of them. "Goodnight my love"
