The enormous square of the Sword Sect could accommodate over a million disciples, and there were indeed over a million disciples gathered here at this moment. However, when such a vast number was present, the entire square was deathly silent, and it was deathly silent.
"Gulp, gulp …!"
"It's, it's Qin Shi?
H-he's not dead? "
"Is this true or not?
How, how could he have survived such a terrifying sword light? "
All the disciples stared at the black silhouette in the Sumeru Space.
That black figure was Qin Shi, and Qin Shi had survived in such an unexpected situation. Almost all the disciples present were shocked, including Fang Qing, Feng Sha, and Zhang Hun.
They couldn't figure it out. They had clearly seen Qin Shi being killed with their own eyes. How could he be safe?
Suddenly, Zhang Hun's old eyes turned cold, and a strong killing intent shot out. "No, this brat is not dead!"
"Huh?
He's not dead?
What do you mean? "
"Big Brother, what's going on?" The two of them asked in surprise.
"He's already dead. He's resurrected now."
"Resurrected?
That's, that's impossible, right? "
"Impossible?
Hmph, look over there! "Zhang Hun pointed at Qin Shi's chest with his withered hand.
"Huh?"
Fan Yan and Feng Sha looked over and saw a purple pearl in Qin Shi's chest. "That's, that's the core essence of the Law-Enforcing Division?"
"The core essence, the Sect Rules Altar, and his life!" Shen Tianming suddenly came to a realization. "I understand now!
I understand now!
Actually, that brat was killed by the Sword Demon just now, but he relied on this core essence to resurrect? "
Zhang Hun nodded fiercely. "That's right!"
"But Big Brother, why does this brat have the core essence?"
Both of them were puzzled. As the Supreme Elders of the Sword Sect, they knew the Core Profound Qi very well. It was a very rare thing even in the Law Enforcement Department. It was a treasure that could only be refined after a lot of effort. Who would easily give it to others?
Zhang Hun gritted his teeth and shook his head. To be honest, he also wanted to know the answer. However, he was sure that someone was secretly helping Qin Shi, and this person was in the Law-Enforcing Division.
Thinking of this, he turned his old eyes and stared at the Law-Enforcing Division like a sharp sword. "You better not let me know who this person is, or I'll tear him to pieces!"
It could be said that it was the best opportunity to make Qin Shi a disciple in seclusion. As long as Qin Shi died, Fang Qing would be in a passive position. She had to agree even if she wanted to. And it was precisely because of this that Zhang Hun missed this opportunity that made him completely furious..
Feeling the ferocious gaze, the entire Law-Enforcing Division, as well as the Elders and disciples, all trembled.
At the highest level of the Law-Enforcing Division, an old man couldn't help but bitterly smile. Beside him was a handsome young man. To be able to stand at such a young age, this young man was undoubtedly the pride of the Law-Enforcing Division: Long Tingyan.
This old man was the Head Elder of the Law-Enforcing Division: Xue Pofeng.
Looking at Zhang Hun, Xue Pofeng couldn't help but feel helpless. As Long Tingyan's master, he naturally recognized the source of the core essence in Qin Shi's hand. Rubbing Long Tingyan's head, he smiled and said, "Little guy, you've brought me a lot of trouble this time."
Long Tingyan said, "Master, this disciple doesn't think that this is wrong. I don't think this is any trouble."
"Oh?" Xue Pofeng curiously looked at Long Tingyan, "What do you mean?"
"I have a feeling that this Qin Shi will definitely have great achievements in the Sword Sect. But when he is at his peak, it will be difficult to curry favor with him. Now is the best time."
Xue Pofeng was silent for a moment. He didn't blame Long Tingyan, because in his heart, he also had the same feeling. It had been a long time since he had seen Fang Qing care so much about a disciple. For her to care so much about this boy, this boy must have something extraordinary about him.
But after hesitating for a moment, he let out a long sigh, "Let's wait and see. Even if he really is a dragon or a tiger, we'll have to see if he has the ability to walk out of the Sect's Altar alive."
"The Sect's Altar … isn't just for show."
Long Tingyan nodded, then became serious. He also understood what Xue Pofeng was saying.
The Sect's Altar's terror was not something that a mere two lives could resolve. Whether or not he could walk out of it all depended on Qin Shi's luck.
He stared at Qin Shi in the void, clenching his fists.
"Qin Shi, this is as far as I can help you. The rest is up to you. Don't waste the core yuan essence that I spent a hundred years refining!"
At the same time, when Fang Qing and Feng Sha saw that Qin Shi was not dead, their despair was rekindled. Fang Qing clenched her jade-like hands tightly.
Fan Yan and Shen Tianyang stood behind Zhang Hun. Feeling Zhang Hun's rage, they looked at each other and twitched. Fan Yan was the first to speak, "Big brother, don't worry. Even if this boy revives, he may not be able to walk out of the Sect's Altar."
"That's right, the Sect's Altar can kill everything. Even if he revives a thousand or a hundred times, what can he do?
It won't change the result. He will die without a doubt. "
"That better be the case!"
Zhang Hun coldly shouted, his old eyes fixed on the Xumi Space.
Just like that, the resurrected Qin Shi once again became the center of attention.
In the chaotic space, Qin Shi first wrapped the black robe tightly around himself. Soon after, he weighed the Core Essence Yuan in his hand. The originally bright and clear glow on the Core Essence Yuan was rapidly dissipating. In the end, it gradually became dim and lifeless.
After using it once, the core yuan essence had lost its original use. It was like an ordinary stone. Qin Shi couldn't help but feel a tinge of regret.
"Haha, such a good treasure can only be used once. What a pity."
He shook his head, then his black eyes became more serious.
To be honest, this time, he had a very, very deep feeling towards him. Even though it was a daunting but not a dangerous resurrection, when the ominous sword fell on his body, that piercing pain and feeling of death was something he had never experienced before.
He had really died once. In the past, no matter how much wind and rain he had experienced, no matter how dangerous he had been, he had only narrowly escaped death in the end. However, when he really died once, he truly understood the meaning of death.
This also made him see life more clearly.
"Roar!"
A shocked roar reverberated in the air. If it was said that the people from Sword Sect were shocked when they saw that Qin Shi was still alive, then the Sword Demon Protector in the Mirror of Punishment was enraged. As the Sword Demon Protector, it would absolutely not allow Qin Shi to still be alive after receiving a full powered attack from it.
After a few roars, even the entire Realm of Punishment trembled.
But in the midst of the turmoil, Qin Shi's heart was unusually calm. His black eyes flashed, and the corner of his mouth rose slightly. "Haha, big guy, you killed me once, don't tell me you want to kill me a second time?"
"Roar!"
The Sword Demon responded to Qin Shi with action. Once again, two beams of sword light fell towards Qin Shi with the intention of splitting the world.
But in an instant, Qin Shi frowned.
"Haha, I had the core Profound Qi just now. Dying once is like experiencing death. But since that thing can't be used now, I can't die again."
After a pause, Qin Shi suddenly said, "Moreover, it's a bit embarrassing to fall into the same pit twice."
"I don't want to die like this!"
"Break for me!"
Qin Shi shouted, and then he suddenly opened his eyes. His bright eyes were full of light, and a shadow began to flash around his body.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Suddenly, he split into two and quickly used the Golden Inscription Psychokinesis Body. Two figures shot out from the left and right like arrows leaving a bow, directly dodging the ominous sword light. Qin Shi's original body was even more daring. He even borrowed the ominous sword light to step on it, turning into a flowing light that shot towards the center of the Sword Demon's eyebrows.
"Is it here?"
The distance of two hundred zhang was nothing in front of the lightning. Qin Shi stared at the mark between the Sword Demon's eyebrows, and suddenly raised his finger slowly.
"Big guy, it's over."
He raised his hand and pointed. A golden pattern rose from between Qin Shi's fingers and slowly fell on the Sword Demon's forehead.
Seeing Qin Shi's action, everyone was stunned.
None of them understood Qin Shi's intention.
In their opinion, with Qin Shi's strength, even if he could get close to the Sword Demon, what could he do?
Wasn't it useless?
Just when everyone was confused, Zhang Hun's old eyes suddenly revealed a look of shock. A touch of disbelief and panic rose up. "Oh no!"
"Big brother, what's going on?"
"This kid is going to succeed."
"What?" The two of them were shocked, and then their bodies suddenly shook.
Buzz! Buzz!
Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, just as the golden rune landed between Sword Demon's eyebrows, a buzzing sound came from the Void. Even the Punishment Realm of the Sect's Rule Altar could not withstand it, causing the square to shake violently.
The ground directly below the altar collapsed, and thousands of cracks spread out like a spider's web. The ground directly collapsed.
The sudden change made even Fang Qing frown. She quickly waved her lily-white hand. "All Sword Sect Elders, listen up!
Get into formation!
Protect our sect's disciples! "
Hundreds of elders flew up into the sky, and after gathering everyone's spiritual energy, they finally calmed down.
Shortly after, everyone looked towards the sky in shock after witnessing such a sudden phenomenon.
Under Qin Shi's golden pattern, the originally wild and ferocious Sword Demon suddenly became sluggish. Like a soulless stone statue, it stopped moving.
The Sword Demon stopped moving, and Qin Shi's heart relaxed.
"Is this really the place?"
He let out a long sigh of relief with lingering fear in his heart. Only then did he wrap his black robe tightly around himself and slowly descend. The tip of his foot stopped on the forehead of the Sword Devil. Compared to the gigantic Sword Devil, Qin Shi seemed as tiny as a speck of dust.
However, in the eyes of the disciples, he became a lingering, majestic figure.
Crack!
Soon after, with a crisp sound, the endless dark space suddenly shattered into powder like glass that had been smashed onto the ground.
In the powder, the only thing left was the thin but clear black robe.
