Chapter 186: Chapter 118: Hands Stained with Royal Blood
At the bottom of the deep pit, Qin Ming walked more steadily, completely withdrawing his thoughts from the Close to Immortal Item and Metal Paper, calming down thoroughly.
Those things are very far from him, and not really related to him, all belonging to the core Taoist traditions of the Outer World.
He reminded himself not to get carried away, needing to tread with both feet firmly on the ground.
A few months ago, he was hunting in the mountains, almost dying from a strange illness, enduring hunger, struggling to survive.
As for everything at the Cui Family, that was just a dream, not to be taken as reality.
After stepping onto the Newborn Road, he continuously improved his physique, and only then did he manage to break free from the predicament.
Qin Ming felt that practicing the Heavenly Light Force was his way out, and by continuing to integrate it, he would eventually make a name for himself.
Chen Shuhang and Jiang Congyun escaped all the way out, not daring to take the original path, unwilling to meet with He Tai who had the air of a Young Master and the successor of the Five Elements Palace.
After being severely injured by Qin Ming, both were in terrible shape, worried that on their way back, they would be seen as weak by masters practicing special Jin Techniques. If anyone harbored ill intentions towards them, it was more likely bad than good.
Moreover, Jiang Congyun and Chen Shuhang felt that their experiences at the bottom of the pit were shameful, and they did not want to mention them to those people.
As for Qin Ming, he was walking back along the original path at an unhurried pace, because this was part of his plan; he wanted to stir up the entire pool of water.
He could not take the Close to Immortal artifact out quietly because it was too extraordinary; all along the way, it radiated auspicious glow, making nearby mists shine with varied colors.
If he did not return by the previously agreed path, he would likely be considered to be trying to sneak away with the Close Immortal Item, leading to an assault from the Fangwai Sect Disciples.
Qin Ming pondered that, in that case, use the Furnace of Eight Trigrams as bait, provoke all Disciples to take the field, and let them erupt into chaos.
After all, no one knew yet about Li Qingyue’s return; she could comfortably wait for the fierce and cruel competition to draw to its end.
Qin Ming’s only concern was, if an Outer Disciple suddenly got the Furnace of Eight Trigrams, whether they could activate it to unleash its mysterious power?
He thought it best to be cautious and preferably catch an Outer Disciple quietly and test it out.
He hadn’t been in the deadlands for a short time; the Pure Yang Blood on his armor was almost completely evaporated.
At the bottom of the giant pit, violent colorful mists flowed, like a vast expanse of heaven’s fire, surging and pummeling.
Even as Qin Ming inhaled, his mouth and nose felt scorching, with bursts of burning pain.
If any other Newcomer had come here, their lungs would be burnt through in mere moments, burning from the inside out, turning to ashes.
"Eh, there he is!"
"He really got the Close Immortal Item!"
The three mighty experts guarding the edge area of the deep pit saw the hazy figure approaching through the mist and also noticed the object in his hand entwined with Divine Radiance.
He Tai, a young expert invited by the Zheng Family, had an extremely unsimple heritage, practicing the Great Ape King Power, his Ancestor Master once daring to confront the Tathagata of that era.
He stared at the figure in the Heavenly Light mist, revealed an unusual expression, and said: "Chen Shuhang and Jiang Congyun have disappeared, leaving only the heir of the Six Imperial Forces."
"He has nothing to do with the Six Imperial lineage," Chen Xingyuan said calmly, coming from the rumored Five Elements Palace, his strength profound and unfathomable.
Li Tianhe, a Disciple from the Yuqing Lineage merely nodded, acknowledging his statement.
Chen Xingyuan, a Disciple of the Five Elements Palace, then added indifferently: "He also has nothing to do with the Tathagata Lineage."
There were no other people here, only the three of them waiting, all with significant backgrounds, practicing Heavenly Light Force that was the most unique and powerful.
Qin Ming moved through the dense Heavenly Light, already not far from them, and all three had their gaze attracted by the Close to Immortal Item, despite its severe damage, still shimmering with brilliance.
"Did you have a conflict with Jiang Congyun and Chen Shuhang?" He Tai asked.
Qin Ming looked at him, not speaking. Was this looking for trouble?
Chen Xingyuan and Li Tianhe remained silent, watching calmly.
"You went too far with your attack, leaving both in the deadlands?" He Tai spoke again.
Qin Ming retorted: "What are you implying, that I killed them? Do not sling mud."
"There had better not be any problems, after all, we are all on the same difficult path," He Tai nodded and then reached out with a smile, ready to receive the dazzling Furnace of Eight Trigrams.
Qin Ming moved forward, approaching the edge of the giant pit, handed over the Furnace of Eight Trigrams.
He Tai smiled, reached for the edge of the furnace’s mouth with one hand, and suddenly his other hand exploded with Great Ape King Power, roaring towards Qin Ming.
Great Ape King Power was incredibly violent, both masculine and domineering, as if a giant ape that could swallow the sky emerged here, amid the vast Heavenly Light.
Qin Ming couldn’t possibly be hit by him, and he activated the Wind Power, avoiding this forceful Heavenly Light with a burst of strong wind.
However, the Pure Yang Blood on him dissipated, there wasn’t much to begin with, and after being suddenly struck by He Tai, it all evaporated.
Obviously, He Tai’s intention was to dissipate the Pure Yang Blood remaining on his armor.
Normally, Newcomers entering a Dense Land of Heavenly Light would definitely be risking their lives.
Qin Ming had just walked out alive from there, and He Tai made such a move, shattering his Pure Yang Blood, clearly with heavy malice.
However, He Tai was also shocked; he had already grasped the edge of the Furnace of Eight Trigrams, so why didn’t he take it over? It was an unexpected failure.
Qin Ming’s expression was cold; he had long seen that He Tai had no goodwill, even if he wanted to perform an act, causing a great disturbance, he would not trigger it through this man’s hand.
Just now, his Sticky Force was activated, and any attempt by He Tai to grab it was futile.
"Do I have any grudges with you?" Qin Ming asked while attempting to climb up the slope.
With a whoosh, the three great experts moved simultaneously, as fast as lightning, blocking his path.
