Chapter 189: Chapter 119: Harvest is Plentiful_2
Li Tianhe saw what he was thinking and said, "He has been cultivating the Withering and Flourishing Scripture, and he is currently in the ’Withering’ phase."
"What a tragedy, Senior Brother He Tai had such exceptional talent, and yet he has transformed into a celestial being here. It’s such a pity; our future has lost a grandmaster."
One after another, the Fangwai Sect disciples began to speak platitudes, but... it was all too perfunctory. Their gazes never moved away from the Close Immortal Item, and even while "mourning" for He Tai, some couldn’t hide the excited look on their faces, smiles tugging at their lips.
After Chen Xingyuan and Li Tianhe finished examining the Furnace of Eight Trigrams, they didn’t stir trouble and "truthfully" revealed the cause of He Tai’s death, then returned the furnace to Qin Ming.
"Senior Brothers, in order to obtain the Close Immortal Item, Senior Brother He Tai has transformed into a celestial being, and I too am seriously injured..." Qin Ming spoke up.
"Junior Brother, I have Spiritual Medicine for you..." Immediately, an Outer Disciple enthusiastically tossed over a jade jar.
Qin Ming sighed and said, "The friend who asked for my help was seriously injured and had to leave early. I don’t know whom to give the Close Immortal Item to now."
"Junior Brother, give it to me. It’s a hot potato; keeping it with you might lead to trouble."
"Sister, what do you seek? Let me help solve your troubles. The Close Immortal Item is of no use to you; once you leave the dense region of Heavenly Light, you might easily become a target."
...
In an instant, the Fangwai Sect disciples all used Secret Techniques to covertly transmit their voices to Qin Ming.
He replied, "Senior Brothers and Sisters, this object is originally the sacred relic of the Outer World, nothing to do with me, naturally, I must respectfully return it."
He paused slightly, then continued, "A Senior Brother said that since I was seriously injured because of the Close Immortal Item, he wants to compensate me with a secret manual... for that... I am grateful."
Who said that? The Fangwai Sect disciples exchanged glances.
"Junior Brother, I accidentally came across a Cultivation Technique on the Newborn Road, called ’Gold Cutting Finger’; I give it to you now." Someone jumped in. Regardless of whether anyone had said that, since no one had spoken up till now, he might as well be the one to give.
"Senior Brother, I have ’Dragon Claw Force’. Once mastered, all five fingers will be indestructible!" Another person spoke up.
Then, even more named their Cultivation Techniques.
Chen Xingyuan and Li Tianhe watched Qin Ming, not expecting the fake heir of the Six Royal Series, "Suo Gong," indeed had some skills!
"Senior Brother, I have a ’Golden Crow Illuminating Night Scripture’, which is likely rarer than a Miracle Technique," a female Outer Disciple said.
"With such a scripture, I will gladly give you the Close Immortal Item," Qin Ming immediately enthusiastically responded, not hiding his intentions any longer, ready to trade on the spot.
The girl, around sixteen or seventeen years old, with long black hair cascading down to her waist, walked up gracefully with a gentle smile, saying, "Senior Brother..."
As she saw Qin Ming leave the bottom area of the giant pit and was still tens of meters away from her, she suddenly made a move. Divine Radiance exploded in abundance from within Yellow Court, sweeping towards the figure in the front.
Qin Ming knew all along that she was deceiving him, but he still walked out, mainly to find out if the Fangwai Sect disciples could activate the Furnace of Eight Trigrams.
He swept across like lightning, swiftly dodging, harnessing Wind Power, wrapping around Heavenly Light, and with a boom, he charged forward.
The girl was enveloped in a downpour of light, spinning around her, forming densely packed blades, shooting at the young man ahead.
Qin Ming had practiced many Defensive Techniques such as the Golden Silkworm Technique, Golden Light Shield, and Golden Armor Skill, all operated in a unified form.
Furthermore, strong defensive methods from the Lihuo Scripture and Wuji Scripture were also harnessed by him with the integrated form of Heavenly Light Force.
In a flash, his body was covered with golden patterns, steaming with Earth Essence Qi, with faint glimmers of Fire Light.
The light rain from the Fangwai Sect disciple fell, like snowflakes meeting the Fierce Sun, hissing as they turned into streaks of light and vanished altogether.
Qin Ming was now close to her, and the sight of his fist glowing with light frightened the girl, who shrieked. She had witnessed the dreadful state Zheng Maoze was in when he was bullied up close.
With a thud, she was suddenly grabbed.
Qin Ming did not hit her; instead, he grabbed her neck with one hand, bringing her to the edge of the giant pit.
"Senior Brother, it’s a misunderstanding. I had no ill intentions; just a little too eager," the girl’s voice trembled, for the Heavenly Light Force flowing in his palm seemed like Divine Flame from a furnace, scorching her, causing her beauty to fade.
She dared not release her Consciousness Spiritual Light, fearing that his Heavenly Light Force might ignite it, burning through it. What a terrifying youth he was! The Heavenly Light Force he cultivated was too frightening.
"Can you activate the Close Immortal Item?" Qin Ming asked in a deep voice, then demanded, "Speak up quickly!"
The girl was intimidated and frightened, stammering, "How can I wield such a powerful weapon? Unless it is nurtured for many years, allowing it to recover its Spirituality and gain its recognition."
Qin Ming captured her emotional fluctuations and swiftly resonated with them, confirming the truth of her words!
With that settled, he was reassured; even if thrown out, he wouldn’t make the mistake of aiding the enemy.
Qin Ming did not make things difficult for her, releasing her snowy white neck and said, "Go fetch the ’Golden Crow Illuminating Night Scripture,’ and the Close Immortal Item will be yours."
The girl immediately ran off, like a startled little white rabbit, cursing under her breath. If she had the Golden Crow Illuminating Night Scripture, would she need to deceive them for a Close Immortal Item?
"I kindly helped you retrieve the heavy weapon and sustained serious injuries, only to be deceived and attacked. It truly chills my heart to the bone," Qin Ming sighed.
With a clang, he threw the Furnace of Eight Trigrams into the bottom of the Heavenly Pit dense with Heavenly Light.
"Brother, don’t do this!"
"Junior Brother, it’s not right, we didn’t deceive you."
A group of Fangwai Sect Disciples shouted, some with anxious eyes.
Chen Xingyuan and Li Tianhe looked at each other, intending to pick it up and study it, but when they saw Qin Ming’s gaze, they stopped.
The two understood that to destroy another’s livelihood is as grievous as killing their parents, which would incur deadly enmity.
"Junior Brother, wait a moment!" In the end, a few Outer Disciples rushed to the surface, briefly communicated, and truly returned with three Secret Manuals.
They couldn’t possibly be carrying them around themselves; these were rewards obtained by some Outer Saints, which were borrowed by them.
Qin Ming flipped through them and, to his amazement, found the "Gold Cutting Finger" and the "Dragon Claw Force," as well as another one called the "Three Mountains Seal," which required Sealing to unleash and seemed to have formidable power!
He was quite pleased; these were all unexpected gains.
Without hesitation, Qin Ming picked up the Close Immortal Item and threw it towards the slope from the bottom of the Heavenly Pit dense with Heavenly Light.
Obviously, these Fangwai Disciples had already discussed it and didn’t fight, ready to return to the surface to "discuss" ownership. In this land dense with Heavenly Light, they were uncertain of themselves.
Moreover, this small group of people were almost all speaking on behalf of the Core Disciples; there was no need to fight to the death here.
"By the way, Tang Xumi, Jiang Shengyu, they promised to give me a High-level Technique after getting out, remind them not to forget," Qin Ming shouted behind.
At this moment, no one cared about him. As the Close Immortal Item came into their possession, these Fangwai Disciples quickly rushed upwards.
Suddenly, a figure with fluttering garments appeared, holding a crystalline bamboo stick and blocking their path on the slope — it was Li Qingxu, coming into the fight personally.
"Senior Brother Tang..."
"Brother Hu Tingwen!"
The Fangwai Disciples immediately shouted, calling for help.
Li Qingxu moved fast as lightning, his glowing purple bamboo stick receiving the Outer Heaven Light without utter destruction, temporarily breaking through the Heavenly Light, a treasure refined by his master.
With a thud, Li Qingxu brought the stick down, and a Fangwai Disciple flew out several meters, unable to stop him at all.
"Hand it over!" His voice was cold as he turned into a bolt of lightning, rushing over to snatch the Close Immortal Item.
At the slope’s base, Qin Ming took off the Big Bow, placing a special blue Arrow made of Jade Iron on the bowstring, flooding it with a great amount of Heavenly Light before shooting it out.
Thud!
Li Qingxu’s palm was bloodied, grazed by the blue Arrow which tore a deep gash in his flesh, momentarily halting his movements as his eyes emitted cold flashes of lightning.
Qin Ming thought to himself that as a Core Disciple, Li Qingxu indeed had exceedingly strong power, far surpassing other Disciples. The special Arrow failed to hit his body or pierce through his palm.
"Junior Brother, you keep it for now!" The Disciple holding the Close Immortal Item threw it back with a clang, landing it near Qin Ming.
Li Qingxu, furious, rushed over and struck that person with his stick, sending him flying over twenty meters away, breaking his bones and suffering severe injuries.
"Li Qingxu, you still have not given up after being injured and haven’t left!" Tang Xumi, Jiang Shengyu, Hu Tingwen, and others appeared, all entering the Heavenly Pit.
At this moment, all the Disciples were present around the edge of the huge pit, knowing that the ownership of the Close Immortal Item would soon be decided.
Qin Ming, spotting some acquaintances, was struck with an idea and forcefully threw the Furnace of Eight Trigrams towards Zheng Maoze.
The sacred object, radiating an auspicious glow and steaming Immortal Light, fell with a clang before Zheng Maoze, whose pupils contracted — was this fortune or calamity?
