… …
This kind of special training continued until the day before the start of the 5 Sects Tournament. Only then did Qin Fang appear in front of the Kunlun Sect's disciples again …
"Junior Brother Qin …"
"Martial Uncle Qin …"
However, compared to the last meeting, these Kunlun disciples' attitudes had obviously changed a lot. The 2nd generation disciples would politely call him junior brother while the 3rd generation disciples would respectfully call him martial uncle.
No matter whether these people were sincere or not, at least they treated him with respect.
Of course, the disciples of Old Man Qing Yuan's line basically all turned around and left as soon as they saw Qin Fang. Only some 2nd generation disciples dared to give Qin Fang a hard time … Because of Qin Fang's disturbance, their status in the Kunlun Sect had obviously dropped a lot.
But generally speaking, it was still relatively harmonious!
This could be regarded as Qin Fang's official beginning to integrate into this school that had existed for 1000 years …
However, when the 5 Sects Tournament was about to start, his new master, Old Taoist Qing Xu, also specially looked for Qin Fang to talk about something.
"Master, this … is not necessary, right?"
Looking at Old Taoist Qing Xu, who had a rather nervous expression on his face, Qin Fang could not help but say with a bitter smile, "This thing is my trump card. I'll deal with it properly … You don't have to worry about this!"
The reason why Old Taoist Qing Xu had such a reaction was naturally because of the God-slaying Insect that Qin Fang had taken out in public before …
This was the main culprit that had caused several big disasters in the martial arts world. Basically, it could be said that the martial arts world would turn pale at the mention of this insect. Unexpectedly, after being extinct for several hundred years, this kind of ferocious poison had reappeared in Jianghu.
Even though this God-slaying Insect Queen was in a deep sleep because of the suppression of the Snow Bodhi, it was still a "bomb". If Qin Fang really encountered a very difficult enemy, he only needed to break the Snow Bodhi and the God-slaying Insect Queen would wake up. That would be a bloody catastrophe!
Hundreds of years ago, there were relatively few humans on Earth. The Central Plains had at most a few tens of millions of people. But now … there were more than a billion people.
Although the number of martial artists among them was relatively few, this God Slaying Queen Bug would definitely cause endless slaughter!
As the leader of the Kunlun Sect, one of the 5 big schools, Old Taoist Qingxu absolutely cannot allow such a thing to happen. That is why he has come to discuss this matter with Qin Fang … He wants to kill this mother God Slaying Insect!
The God-slaying Insect is very powerful but it is only invincible to those below the Supreme-Being level. If it encounters a Supreme-Being level expert, it will definitely die … Taoist Qingxu has been at this level for many years so it is not very difficult for him to kill this mother God-slaying Insect.
"Alas, do as you wish …"
However, after hearing Qin Fang's refusal, Taoist Qingxu's complexion is somewhat unsightly but he finally nods his head and stops worrying about this matter … Just as Qin Fang said, this God-slaying Insect is his trump card. If it were not for its protection, Qin Fang would have been killed by Old Taoist Qingyuan long ago.
Even though he has already suppressed Old Taoist Qingyuan, based on his understanding of Old Taoist Qingyuan, Old Taoist Qingyuan must have hated Qin Fang out of jealousy … On the surface, Old Taoist Qingyuan certainly will not do anything extreme, but it is hard to say what he will do secretly.
It is precisely because he understands this point that Taoist Qingxu feels that it may be safer to leave the God-slaying Insect in Qin Fang's hands … Given Qin Fang's current power, unless Old Taoist Qingyuan personally attacks him, other people may not necessarily be able to kill him!
"Thank you very much, Master …"
Seeing that Taoist Qingxu has relented, Qin Fang cannot help letting out a sigh of relief. He immediately thanks him smilingly.
"Don't be complacent too early. The 5 Sects Tournament is going to start tomorrow … There are quite a few devilish geniuses among the young experts of the 5 big schools. Don't fail miserably at such an easy task. That will be a disgrace to this old man!"
Seeing Qin Fang's sneaky smile, Taoist Qingxu also makes fun of him smilingly.
"Don't worry, Master. I know what to do!"
If it were before, Qin Fang did not know this old man very well. Perhaps he would still show his loyalty and act tough or something. However, after getting along with him these past few days, Qin Fang knew what kind of person his new master was so he did not even bother to say those pretty words.
After chatting casually for a while, Qin Fang returned to his own residence. He also prepared to have a good night's rest and prepare for the upcoming 5 Sects Tournament … That would definitely not be as easy as he had imagined. It would definitely be one tough battle after another!
It was a quiet night.
Early next morning, when Qin Fang got up and went out, he found that the Kunlun Sect's people had already gathered. Then, under the leadership of Taoist Qingxu, a group of several dozen people left the small town of Shangri-La and set off for that wasteland.
"Senior brother Jian, we're going to …"
However, Qin Fang felt a little strange so he went to Jian Qingfeng's side and asked.
Among so many people in the Kunlun Sect, only he had a relatively good relationship with Jian Qingfeng. The others could only be regarded as ordinary … Even his several senior brothers were only acquaintances.
"Heartless Sea …"
Jian Qingfeng gave a simple reply.
"Heartless Sea?
What's that place? "
Qin Fang was stupefied. He really did not know where such a place was. Even during these past few days of intensive training with his master, Taoist Qingxu, he had not heard Taoist Qingxu mention anything about it … The other Kunlun disciples more or less knew something about it. Only he knew nothing about it.
"The Heartless Sea is actually a small secret area … It's surrounded by a natural formation. Unfortunately, the spiritual energy inside has already dried up. It's no different from the outside world. It's just a bit more hidden!
A grand event like the Grand Competition of the Five Sects would have a great influence in the martial arts world. There would be quite a number of experts participating, and their destructive power would also be quite shocking. Naturally, it would not be held casually outside. Only in such a small Secret Realm, no matter how big of a commotion it caused, there would not be any bad effects! "
Jian Qingfeng then gave a simple explanation of the Heartless Sea to Qin Fang.
This …
"I see …"
Qin Fang then understood.
In a grand event like the Five Sect Tournament, although the participants were all young disciples below the age of 30, the five great sects could be said to be the top forces in the martial arts world. Even the young disciples had at least reached the level of Guru. A few heaven-defying monsters had even reached the level of Great Guru!
For such disciples to spar, the level was also quite high. At the very least, it was much better than the Martial Arts Assembly that Qin Fang had participated in back then … The commotion caused by such a battle between experts would also far exceed the scope of ordinary humans.
In order to reduce some unnecessary effects, it was better to arrange for it to be held in such a hidden secret area …
Although Shangri-La was already very remote, and they had done their best to disperse the surrounding tourists … if the Five Sect Tournament were to be held here, it was hard to guarantee that no one would suddenly barge in. If these inhuman scenes were to be leaked out, it would definitely cause a huge commotion.
It had to be known that in the martial arts world and Long Province, martial arts could be said to have disappeared without a trace. If people really knew that there was such a group of "inhuman" experts in the world, who knew what kind of commotion it would cause?
The Heartless Sea was not very far from Shangri-La. With the speed of these experts, they only needed half an hour to reach it. Moreover, this place was sufficiently hidden, so it was naturally the best place to spar … Not to mention, there were many natural arenas left behind in the Heartless Sea.
After half an hour of hurrying, Qin Fang and the others arrived at a secret area. This place did not seem to be any different from the surrounding wastelands. However, with Jian Qingfeng's prior warning, Qin Fang immediately discovered that there was indeed a formation here …
"A naturally formed formation?
I don't think so … "
Although Jian Qingfeng said that the array formation here was naturally formed, Qin Fang couldn't help but mutter to himself after carefully studying it … It could only be said that the people from the five great sects weren't proficient in array formations. That was why they weren't able to see the mysteries of this place.
"If a formation expert came here and hid some people here, it might not be so easy to discover …"
After passing through the barrier of this formation, Qin Fang did a simple study and muttered to himself.
However, he didn't take this too seriously.
After entering this small secret area, the Heartless Sea, Qin Fang finally understood why Jian Qingfeng said that this place was indeed no different from the outside world. It was already an abandoned secret area with no cultivation value. Apart from being a little hidden, it could be said that there was nothing good about it.
There were birds chirping and flowers fragrant, spiritual herbs everywhere, spiritual beasts running amok … there was none here. What entered their eyes was a desolate wasteland. There was even a small desert. There were only some relatively ancient stone platforms standing in the middle, telling the story of this small secret area's antiquity and vicissitudes!
Unfortunately, there was no value at all now …
Since there was no value, there was naturally no need to fight over it. Whether this formation was naturally formed or manmade, it was not that important anymore …
"All of you stay here!
Remember, don't stir up trouble … "
The Kunlun Sect was not the first to arrive here. In fact, when they came in, there were already people from at least two other sects waiting in the Heartless Sea. Old Taoist Qingxu only gave a simple order to the Kunlun disciples then immediately went into the distance.
Others might not know why Old Taoist Qingxu was in such a hurry. They would only think that it was a simple meeting of the five great leaders before the official start of the Five Sects Tournament … but Qin Fang knew some inside information. Speaking of which, it was a little bit related to him!
It was nothing more than the information that Qin Fang had obtained from Chu Yuan by accident. It was about the Yin-Yang Demon Sect teaming up with several big evil schools to cause a little trouble in this Five Sects Tournament … This was not a matter of just one sect. Naturally, Old Taoist Qingxu had to inform the other sects of this matter!
