"The eighth ranked divine object?" Qin Shi's black eyes widened in shock. One must know that the Dazzling Divine Sword was only ranked ninth.
The demon nodded, "It is indeed ranked eighth. However, I have never seen this ancient battle flag before, so I'm not sure if it's this thing."
"No matter what, this battle flag is definitely an extraordinary treasure." Qin Shi nodded. It seemed that the master of this tomb was indeed a world-shocking person in the past.
"I had originally thought that the most precious treasure in this main hall would be that Heaven's Mystery. However, from the looks of it, regardless of whether it is the Ancient Legacy War Banner or the thousand Lightning Divine Beads, they are not the slightest bit inferior to that Heaven's Mystery. Moreover, if this war banner is truly the Ancient Legacy War Banner, it would likely be even more precious than that Heaven's Mystery."
As Qin Shi thought of this, his eyes blazed with passion. Right now, he urgently needed to become stronger, and before he could temporarily raise his cultivation, borrowing external strength was not a bad idea.
"Hehe, a little interesting."
As Qin Shi thought of this, he abruptly stood up and tried to approach the battle flag.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, when Qin Shi was a thousand meters away from the battle flag, the orderly arrangement of the lightning pearls on the star path suddenly changed direction, and like arrows, they suddenly aimed at Qin Shi, as if if Qin Shi dared to take a step closer, those pearls would mercilessly kill him. And the most embarrassing thing was, when Qin Shi activated the power of the lightning pool in his body, it was useless.
"These pearls seem to be arranged into a formation. If you want to enter, if you don't find the correct method, even the master of this tomb will be useless."
"Another formation?"
Qin Shi felt extremely helpless, but he was not discouraged. The treasure was right in front of him, no matter how difficult it was, he would not give up.
Moreover, he had a faint confidence that this divine object was destined to fall into his hands.
"Haha, you're someone who's known to be fated with treasures …" The Nefarious Demon laughed helplessly. "However, it's not easy to break through the formation of these Divine Lightning Beads. If you don't have enough luck, even a Transcendent Realm expert would have to consider whether or not you'll be blasted into pieces by these Divine Lightning Beads."
Qin Shi nodded his head. At this moment, he composed himself and stared at the ancient war flag at the center of the Thunder God Pearl.
"There must be a connection between all of this …"
"Spirit Guidance …"
Suddenly, two small words appeared in Qin Shi's mind.
"Sister Yu?" Qin Shi was startled, before looking towards the centre of the Lightning God Pearl in a strange manner.
"Spirit Guidance?
Drawing out the remnant soul of the tomb master is a good idea. "The Nefarious Fiend nodded.
"Draw out the remnant soul of the tomb master?" The corner of Qin Shi's mouth twitched. How could that be easy?
Even if a Transcendent Realm expert was not a Demon Talisman Master, their Soul Force was still extremely powerful. If there was a slight delay in drawing out the soul of such an existence, it was possible that they would suffer an intense backlash.
"With me here, what are you afraid of?
Even if you want to take over this body of yours, it's mine! "The Nefarious Demon laughed.
Qin Shi hesitated for a moment. Soon after, he felt as if he was being forced to die. However, in the end, he still chose to believe in the Nefarious Demon and Jade In The Book.
With regards to these two people, Qin Shi firmly believed that they would not harm him in the slightest.
Qin Shi composed himself and his gaze landed on the thousands of Divine Lightning Beads. Within each Divine Lightning Bead, Qin Shi could sense that there was a remnant soul sleeping within.
Qin Shi's hand seal quickly changed, before turning into thousands of golden runes that slowly approached the thousands of Divine Lightning Beads.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
As the golden runes approached, the thousands of Divine Lightning Beads immediately began to stir violently. This caused Qin Shi's heart to tremble once again. As expected, these Divine Lightning Beads would be detected even if his Soul Force approached. Fortunately, the Soul Force released by Qin Shi was supported by the Ancient Mysterious Heaven Formation. Under the attacks of the Divine Lightning Beads, not only was it not destroyed, but it even attached itself to the thousands of Divine Lightning Beads.
When the runes attached themselves to the Divine Lightning Beads, the thousands of Divine Lightning Beads instantly began to burn with golden flames.
"Come out!" The moment the golden flames appeared, Qin Shi activated the runes and immediately caused the flames to boil.
Bang!
Suddenly, the star orbits of over a thousand Lightning God Beads stopped moving. Golden light leaped out from every single Lightning God Bead. Finally, they gathered in the air above the Ancient Remnant War Flag, and slowly transformed into an ancient figure. The moment the figure appeared, its face was a little dark and gloomy as it coldly smiled at Qin Shi. "Haha, little fellow, aren't you a little immoral to be so vicious to an old fellow who has already died?"
Seeing the appearance of the ancient figure, Qin Shi couldn't help feeling shocked with just a single glance. The figure actually made him feel as if he had sunk into the Sea of Oblivion. Only then did Qin Shi hastily become respectful and said, "Haha, this junior, Qin Shi, greets senior. This junior was forced to resort to such a method."
The illusory figure glanced at Qin Shi and said in an extremely annoyed tone, "It was a bad plan, but it nearly shattered this old man's remnant soul."
"Hehe … isn't senior fine now?"
Only then did the figure say no more. He stood in the air with his hands behind his back as he looked around. His old eyes were filled with sorrow and vicissitudes.
"Haha, I never imagined that tens of thousands of years would pass in the blink of an eye. I'm afraid that not many people in this world remember my name, Dao Qing, right?"
"Dao Qing?" The Evil Demon muttered, "It really is him, that madman …"
Qin Shi was stunned when he heard this. Even the Evil Demon seemed to be somewhat serious towards Dao Qing.
"Ancient Remnant War Flag, Dao Qing …" Qin Shi couldn't help but be filled with curiosity towards the tomb master once again.
At this moment, Dao Qing's gaze suddenly landed on Qin Shi. "Haha, little fellow, it's all thanks to you that I'm able to see the sights of the mortal world again. However, in these ten thousand years, I didn't think that there would really be someone who could come here. Previously, there were also many little fellows who barged into this old man's tomb. However, they absolutely cannot enter this altar."
Following this, Dao Qing pointed his finger, and a ray of lightning landed on Qin Shi's body. At that instant, Qin Shi was shocked at first, then he felt that the lightning energy in his body had become extremely gentle. This gentleness was something that he had never felt before. As Dao Qing made his move, the lightning energy in his body actually submitted to him without any signs of being restless. Dao Qing then laughed, "Haha, so you've absorbed the lightning pool I left in the third sub-hall?
Interesting, but it doesn't matter. You've received my inheritance. Tell me, what do you want?
My Heavenly Fortune?
Or any of the treasures in this altar, you can take any one of them. "
"I want this Ancient Remnant War Flag." Qin Shi pointed his finger.
"Hmm?"
Dao Qing suddenly frowned, and his expression turned slightly cold, "You should have seen the words I left under the Ancient Remnant War Flag just now, right?"
"I did." Qin Shi nodded.
"Then why do you still want this Ancient Remnant War Flag?"
Dao Qing's expression changed, and a huge force instantly pressed down on Qin Shi, instantly causing Qin Shi's knees to weaken.
However, Qin Shi suddenly straightened his body, and did not kneel down. He looked at Dao Qing with a determined gaze.
"I don't know what Senior Qing meant by the chaos that has arisen in this world, but to me, this world is already in utter chaos."
"Oh?
What kind of chaos? "
"The Ming Group!"
Qin Shi immediately spat out these two words. Since Dao Qing had been chased by the Ming Group, Qin Shi firmly believed that Dao Qing definitely knew of the Ming Group's intentions. Shrouding the Heavens had awakened, and the world would definitely be in chaos. Presumably, this reason should be enough for him to trick the Ancient Remnant War Flag, right?
Of course, not all of it was a lie. The Ming Group was currently restless, and he was bound to fight the Ming Group.
"The Ming Group?
After tens of thousands of years, that damned faction still has remnants? "As Qin Shi had guessed, Dao Qing frowned slightly at the mention of the Ming Group.
Qin Shi couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this. How could the Ming Group only have remnants?
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the Ming Group could cover the sky with one hand, right?
Dao Qing fell silent for a while, then suddenly looked at Qin Shi in a strange manner. "If you want the Ancient Remnant War Flag, it's not impossible."
With that, Dao Qing waved his hand, and the thousand Divine Lightning Pearls lined up, flashing from the center to the two sides. Soon after, an illusory ruin floated in front of the Ancient Remnant War Flag. The ruin was like an ancient battlefield, with corpses strewn all over the place. It was extremely messy, and within the mess, there was a rugged path. At this moment, Dao Qing said, "If you want the Ancient Remnant War Flag, you must walk straight into the Ancient Remnant Battlefield. Only then will the Ancient Remnant War Flag recognize you as its master. Otherwise, even if I hand the flag over to you, you won't be able to activate it at all. Of course, once you enter the battlefield, you will incur the Heavenly Punishment of this battlefield. Every single Heavenly Punishment is something that even World realm experts will find hard to resist. Furthermore, if you are killed in the battlefield, your soul will also be destroyed. If I'm not wrong, there should be a Soul Protection Formation here. Normally, those who die here will be sent out of the formation. However, it's useless in this battlefield. If you die, you really die."
"If I die, then I really die?"
Qin Shi sucked in a breath of cold air. This was no small matter. The main reason why he had dared to act so recklessly in the deep sea Genesis reservoir was because he knew that even if he died, he would not die for real. But now that he had entered the Ancient Legacy Battlefield, dying would actually mean death?
"How about it?
Do you still want the Ancient Remnant War Flag? "Dao Qing smiled.
With a deep breath, Qin Shi's expression turned solemn. However, he did not show the slightest change. After slowly adjusting his state of mind, he smiled at Dao Qing and said, "Elder, I'm ready. Please open the Ancient Remnant Battlefield."
"Oh?"
Dao Qing was taken aback. He had originally wanted to force Qin Shi to back off, but who could have imagined that not only would Qin Shi remain unmoved, he even wanted to challenge the Ancient Remnant Battlefield?
"Are you sure?"
"Of course!" Answered Qin Shi with certainty.
Only then did Dao Qing turn serious, and began to carefully size up Qin Shi.
"This child is extraordinary. Just this boldness alone is a rare talent amongst the younger generation. Furthermore, he also knows about the Puppet Squad. If we hand the Ancient Remains War Banner to him, it might not be a bad choice. At the very least, I, Daoqing, will not have wasted all my efforts."
Dao Qing thought in his heart. Soon after, he shook his head and said, "Regardless, let's see what happens to him first. If he only has boldness without strength, he's destined to become a laughingstock of the world."
