Gong Shuchou seemed to have fallen into the abyss of Qin Shi's back. He couldn't pull himself out. After a while, he suddenly woke up. At this time, his forehead and palms were covered in cold sweat. He shuddered and said, "What happened in that short moment?
This kid can emit an aura that even I am afraid of? "
"This is getting more and more interesting."
Gong Shuchou laughed bitterly. Then, he followed Qin Shi from behind.
Along the way, Qin Shi was calm and collected. His black eyes, which were as calm as an ancient well, were frightening. Ever since he had killed the Burning Soul Sect in the main hall, he hadn't shown much emotion. It was as if these things, which were enough to shake the entire Seven Thousand Sea Palace, were not worth mentioning in his world. The more he acted like this, the more curious Gong Shuchou became. He rubbed his old hands together and smiled. "Kid, tell me about the third move. If Tuoba Kuang hadn't disturbed you, what other trump cards did you have?"
Qin Shi smiled faintly and said, "Senior, have you ever heard of the fusion of spiritual power and soul power?"
Bang!
Gong Shuchou was shocked to his spot. Qin Shi also stopped. Although he was half a head shorter than Gong Shuchou, he was like a giant that completely suppressed Gong Shuchou.
"Gulp …" Gong Shuchou swallowed hard. His hands unconsciously clenched, and his old eyes narrowed. "The fusion of spiritual power and soul power?"
Qin Shi didn't make a sound. He gently extended his hands and wrapped two strange forces around his wrists. Then, he slowly brought the two forces together in front of Gong Shuchou.
Seeing this, Gong Shuchou was subconsciously shocked. His body retreated nearly a hundred meters.
"Kid, you are playing with fire. When these two forces meet, there will be a huge reaction. Even if it is very subtle, within a hundred meters, it will explode into pieces."
"Senior, don't be anxious. Just watch!"
Qin Shi smiled casually. At this time, the two forces slowly fused.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, in Qin Shi's chest, the two forces created a huge flood wave. However, that flood wave didn't explode like Gong Shuchou had imagined. Instead, it formed a strange crack that tore through space. Inside that crack, there seemed to be a giant beast. However, it was a beast trapped in a cage. Its power was completely controlled inside the crack, and it didn't flow out.
"This …" Seeing this scene, Gongshu Chou's old eyes were filled with shock. To him, this was simply too magical.
"There's actually such a thing?"
From the small gap in front of Qin Shi's chest, Gong Shu Chou felt a great pressure.
In fact, Gong Shuchou felt that this small gap was enough to take away half his life.
"Senior, do you think that if this kind of power was expanded by a few hundred times, who would have won that battle in the end?" Qin Shi teased.
"I …"
Gong Shu Chou was bewildered, then laughed awkwardly … Hundreds of times?
Just this small amount of power was enough to make him not dare to be anxious, let alone hundreds of times more.
All of a sudden, Gong Shu Chou felt a lingering fear in his heart. Then, his old eyes were filled with fear.
In a flash, Qin Shi waved his big hand, and the power of the crack instantly exploded. It seemed like the entire sky was being split apart. The crack stretched for tens of thousands of meters in the universe, then disappeared in a flash.
In just a moment, Gong Shu Chou was drenched in sweat. Under the pressure of that crack, he felt like he had died once.
Suddenly, he understood where Qin Shi's confidence came from … If he used this move, no matter how strong Xia Qi's body was, he would have been crushed into powder by this crack, right?
"Haha, it was really dangerous. If it weren't for Tuoba Kuang, I think I would have been seriously injured …"
Gong Shu Chou smiled bitterly. At this moment, he finally understood that Qin Shi's so-called three moves and only injuring him were actually giving him enough leeway … He once thought that he was being modest and letting Qin Shi win.
"You bastard!"
Gong Shu Chou laughed and scolded. Then, he said, "Alright, this old man admits defeat. The ninth floor will belong to you from now on."
After saying this, Gong Shu Chou's old face slightly twitched. "Sigh. Anyway, it's impossible for these old bones of mine to break through to the World Realm."
Qin Shi slightly hesitated and said, "Senior, I will leave the ninth floor to you. I will also leave this Boundary Fruit Seed to you. Whether or not you can break through this heaven-defying fortune, it will all depend on you."
After saying this, Qin Shi stretched out his big hand, and a beige seed the size of a grain of rice appeared in his palm.
Seeing that seed, Gong Shu Chou's sword-like eyebrows twitched. His old eyes flickered with a rich luster, as though he had become younger by a few years. In an instant, his lips and teeth became dry. His withered hand slightly trembled. He didn't dare to rashly receive that seed.
Boundary Fruit Seed?
He naturally knew about such a precious item. It was one of the most precious immortal herbs in this world. It could increase the chances of breaking through to the World Realm … If this news were to spread, there would probably be people who would exchange the entire sea palace for it. However, Qin Shi actually gave it to him just like that?
"Are … are you really giving it to me?"
Qin Shi faintly smiled. "En. Consider it as me returning the favor of saving my Slaughter Formation."
Gong Shu Chou's old face stiffened. To him, this Boundary Fruit was not about breaking through to the World Realm. It was a chance to live.
His old eyes instantly turned red. However, he suddenly shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Little kid, you should keep this precious item for yourself. Even if my old bones have this Boundary Fruit, it is impossible for me to break through to the World Realm. There is no need to waste this Boundary Fruit Seed."
Hearing this, Qin Shi was slightly startled. Immediately, he silently swept his eyes over Gong Shu Chou. After a while, he suddenly realized that Gong Shu Chou's body had already aged severely. His five internal organs and vitality were all exhausted. His dantian flame was also gradually extinguishing. Obviously, it was a sign that his lifespan was approaching its end. In such a situation, it was impossible for him to break through to the World Realm even if he had the Boundary Fruit. After all, his body could no longer cope with his needs.
Eight out of eight, life, old age, sickness, and death … This was a predestined fate. No one could escape it.
If one breath came, there would be life. If one breath didn't come, there would be none.
However, Qin Shi smiled. This seemed to be a predestined fate, but to him, it wasn't. Of course, he couldn't completely disobey Chang Lun. However, it was enough to modify it a little. His palm faced up. Five Yin and Five Blazing Yang fused with the aura of Heaven and Earth, forming a fluorescent green formation tower. When the formation tower was formed, he slowly sent it into Gong Shu Chou's body, placing it in the center of his internal organs.
"Senior, this Sweet Pouring Rain Formation can give you ten years of lifespan. Whether you can break through in these ten years or not depends on you. External forces will help you."
After a short while, Gong Shu Chou's old eyes were filled with fear. The moment the formation tower entered his body, he felt as if he had been reborn. His internal organs were strong, and the impurities in his dantian were expelled. His heartbeat became stronger. He looked at Qin Shi in astonishment. "Little … Little friend, you have a heaven-defying vitality?"
Qin Shi shrugged, handing the Boundary Fruit Seed to Gong Shu Chou.
At this time, Gong Shu Chou's old face was distorted. He no longer dared to underestimate Qin Shi.
"Haha, if I can successfully break through this time, this kid will be my benefactor," Gong Shu Chou thought.
At this time, the two of them returned to the Tuoba Main Hall.
After waiting for a while in the Tuoba Main Hall, Tuoba Kuang had already taken care of the matters outside. Then, he and the other elders returned to the main hall.
At this time, in less than half a day, everyone's view of Qin Shi had changed. It was a qualitative change. They no longer treated him as a junior. Instead, they treated him as an existence higher than their peers. Even Tuoba Kuang was no exception. After all, the Curse Domain Realm was complete. It was enough for him to dominate the entire outer sea palace.
"Little friend …"
Without waiting for Tuoba Kuang to speak, Qin Shi smiled and said, "Palace Master, don't worry. Since I promised Little Li that I would help him secure the position of Palace Master, it naturally includes these thousand Demon Talismans."
"This …" Tuoba Kuang's face was full of awkwardness. When Qin Shi said that he would help Tuoba Li kill Burning Soul, he was still a little angry. He didn't expect that Qin Shi had already planned all of this.
"Little friend, don't worry. My Tuoba Palace will take care of the sea beasts. I also know that refining the Demon Talismans will cause some losses. I have already sent people to hunt three thousand sea beasts!"
"Three thousand …?" Qin Shi was stunned. He revealed a helpless smile.
However, Tuoba Kuang didn't know the meaning behind this smile. He hurriedly said, "No, is it not enough?
If not, I will send people to hunt. "
"No need. Three thousand is enough. How about this, I need a place. Three days later, Palace Master can come and collect the Demon Talismans."
"Wha, what?
Three days? "
Everyone present smacked their lips. Was this a joke?
Three days for one thousand Demon Talismans?
That was impossible. A thousand Wraith Talismans should have taken at least three months or more.
"This kid said three days, so you should go in three days. What nonsense!" Gongshu Chou glared at Tuoba Kuang.
Tuoba Kuang was depressed, but he nodded helplessly, "Okay, I will prepare a place for little friend."
"Oh, right, Palace Master."
At this time, Qin Shi suddenly called out to Tuoba Kuang. Tuoba Kuang heard this and stopped.
After hesitating for a moment, Qin Shi said, "Burning Soul was killed by me. This will definitely arouse the dissatisfaction of many Sea Palaces. Xia Qi's departure this time might unite with these Sea Palaces to harm the Tuoba Palace. Spread the news. I will take responsibility for this. If any Sea Palaces come looking for me, tell them to come and see me. Burning Soul refines many Demon Talismans for them every year."
Tuoba Kuang was stunned. He had forgotten about this. He looked at Qin Shi strangely. This little guy was very meticulous.
"Okay, I will arrange it."
Tuoba Kuang nodded and left the hall.
Tuoba Kuang used three days to prepare a place for Qin Shi. It was a huge Black Iron Tower. Outside the tower, there were dozens of sealing enchantments used to suppress the beastly nature of the sea beasts. In these three days, Qin Shi was at ease. During this time, Lu Peng looked for him several times, asking him to modify his martial arts. He was very happy. After all, he also wanted to cultivate underwater martial arts. With Lu Peng's help, he walked around the Martial Hall of the Tuoba Palace and picked a few martial arts that suited him. Unfortunately, there were no Reincarnation Level martial arts in the Martial Hall. The highest one was only a Mid-Grade Creation Level.
"So be it Creation Level. I will make do for now," Qin Shi said disappointedly.
