"No wonder I can't see through him." Dao Qing seemed to have understood. "With you protecting him, I really can't do anything."
"Haha, you overestimate me. My current condition is similar to yours. The reason you can't see through him has little to do with me."
"Hmm?"
Dao Qing frowned slightly. He then examined the evil demon's illusory body. "Haha, such heavy injuries. Who in this world could force you to this step?"
"Who else could it be?" The evil demon said unhappily.
Dao Qing smiled knowingly but did not say anything else. He looked at Qin Shi with even more curiosity. "Isn't it because of you …"
The evil demon smiled proudly. "You'll naturally understand if you sense it carefully. Those guys aren't any weaker than you."
"Hmm?"
Dao Qing was startled. He then looked at Qin Shi and was shocked by the flowing spiritual light around Qin Shi.
Dao Qing suddenly laughed arrogantly. "Haha, hahaha!
The Long family's Three Lifetimes Zen Sea and the Clay Bodhisattva's soul inheritance are really familiar yet annoying! "
"Hmm, this power …"
However, in the deepest part of the power, Dao Qing's expression suddenly stiffened. He revealed an unprecedented look of shock.
"This power … is that person's bloodline?
This kid is that person's descendant? "Dao Qing asked the evil demon in astonishment.
The evil demon nodded with a smile. "I've said it before. Although it's broken, the bloodline that belongs to that person can't be concealed."
After learning of Qin Shi's identity, Dao Qing seemed to think of something and laughed wildly. "Haha … hahaha, this is fate!
I can't believe I was still tricked by those three bastards in the end! "
"Senior, what do you mean?" Qin Shi asked in shock. He suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Haha, back then, that bastard Fufeng wanted me to leave this Ancient Remains War Banner behind. However, he was rejected by me. At that time, I was extremely pleased with myself, and the Ancient Remains War Banner was still incomplete. Naturally, I would not hand it over. Later on, when my lifespan reached its end, Fufeng once again brought it up. However, I did not wish for this Ancient Remains War Banner to incite a massacre. Therefore, I wholeheartedly decided to bring it into the old tomb."
"Back then, I was curious. Given Fufeng's character, it was impossible for him to give up so easily. But now, it seems that he had already schemed against me!"
"Senior, what do you mean by this?
What does this have to do with Senior Windraiser? "Qin Shi said urgently.
"What relationship?
Hehe, this is a big deal!
Back then, this damn tomb was chosen by that bastard Fufeng for the old me. At that time, he even boasted to the old me that this place was a treasured land and that no one would come and disturb this place in the future. From the looks of it now, I understand that he actually wanted you to come and snatch this Ancient Remains War Flag tens of thousands of years later! "Dao Qing cursed furiously.
Boom!
Suddenly, Qin Shi's head seemed to explode.
"So … all of this is because of that damned Birth Chart again?
Did they arrange it on purpose again?
Did they plan for me from the start of the 7,000 Sea Palace onwards?
Did I follow their plan and walk into this place step by step? "Qin Shi's expression was extremely ugly.
The evil devil couldn't help but laugh.
"Hehe, the Human Emperor really played a big game of chess back then!"
At this time, even the evil devil was a little angry … because this time, they had not only schemed against Qin Shi. They had actually schemed against him as well?
From snatching the Demon Soul Flower to forging the Dharma Body, hadn't he been schemed against as well?
However, perhaps because he had been schemed against so many times, Qin Shi actually felt much more at ease. He didn't fly into a rage like before. Instead, he clenched his fists tightly and swore in his heart.
"No matter what this Birth Chart is, one day, I must find out!"
Seeing Qin Shi's expression, Dao Qing was also taken aback. Then he thought to himself, "Hehe, so this kid doesn't know anything either?
This Ren Huang was truly ruthless. He even schemed against his own juniors in such a manner?
I wonder what the Human Emperor is after. But it doesn't matter. Although this kid is filled with killing intent, he isn't evil at heart. The Ancient Legacy War Flag is the most satisfying work of my life. It is also the record of my life. If it lands in this kid's hands, he might be able to contribute to this world and make up for the sins I committed in the past. "
At this thought, Dao Qing waved his arm and tossed the Ancient Legacy War Flag towards Qin Shi.
Qin Shi caught the ancient battle flag and couldn't help but be stunned, "Senior, this is …?"
"Hehe, this old man is a man of his word. Since you've opened the passage to the Ancient Remains Battlefield, this Ancient Legacy War Flag is naturally yours. However, remember my previous warning. Don't let this Ancient Legacy War Flag continue to be contested in this world."
Dao Qing softly said. Soon after, his figure gradually faded, causing him to involuntarily sigh, "Hehe, is it finally about time?"
Dao Qing slowly raised his head and smiled. "I've clung to this world for tens of thousands of years. It's time to enter reincarnation."
"Senior …" Qin Shi softly muttered. However, he did not say anything else. This was not the first time he had encountered such a separation.
Clay Bodhisattva, Sweet Pouring Rain. Several seniors who had shown him kindness had all died after a single encounter. He knew that this separation was something he was powerless to change. At the very least, it was something he was powerless to do now. He slightly clenched his fists.
"Haha, Qin Shi, is it?
Qin Shi, remember, don't bring disgrace to the Ancient Legacy War Flag. I don't have anything good left for you in this tomb. These four thousand and nine hundred Lightning God Beads are for you. They'll be enough for you to protect your life below the Transcending World stage. In this hall, there are all the treasures, spiritual herbs, cultivation techniques and martial arts that I've accumulated in my life. I'll leave them all for you.
"Qin Shi, remember, my things are not left for mediocre people."
"It's time to say goodbye to this world."
With a clear and carefree laugh, Dao Qing's remnant soul finally disappeared from the main hall.
Following the disappearance of Dao Qing's remnant soul, the altar seemed to have returned to peace once more. The thousands of Lightning God Beads seemed to be weeping and complaining at this moment. After their original irritation and pressure gradually disappeared, they all lay dormant on the ground, as if they wanted to send their master off one last time.
Upon seeing this, Qin Shi could not help but sigh. Although there was still some conflict in his heart because of the Fate Matrix, he had not expected to encounter such an opportunity in the Deep Sea Source Pool in the 7,000 Sea Palace. But this time, he had ultimately matured and become stronger.
"This guy is not simple!" The nefarious devil also praised Dao Qing.
There were not many people in this world who could personally receive praise from the nefarious devil.
"Kid, you don't need to worry too much now that you've obtained it. Whether it's Dao Qing or that bullshit Fate Matrix, they're both things that you can't touch with your current strength. If you want to touch them, you need to become stronger," the nefarious devil revealed.
Qin Shi nodded. He understood this logic. Hence, he took a deep breath and did not waste any more time thinking about it.
If he had the time, he might as well go into the palace and see what treasures Dao Qing had left for him.
However, upon entering the palace, Qin Shi couldn't help but be speechless. Inside the palace, there were thousands of streaks of starlight in the air. These streaks of starlight were of various colors, and each of them contained different energy fluctuations. Focusing his gaze, Qin Shi discovered that each and every one of these streaks of starlight were all precious treasures. There were immortal-ranked herbs, reincarnation martial arts, high-grade divine weapons, and there were even quite a few divine treasures that could be listed on the Divine Item Rankings. However, none of them were ranked within the top hundred.
After all, the treasures in the top 100 were extremely precious, and every one of them was fought over by countless powerful beings.
But even these were enough to rival a country, right?
"Gulp …" Qin Shi's mouth couldn't help feeling dry. He smiled and said, "Haha, we've struck it rich this time. With these treasures, as long as we have enough time, it's only a matter of time before the Qin Palace becomes a sea palace that can rival the Palace of Three Purities, right?"
At this moment, the nefarious devil's gaze landed on the deepest part of the palace, on an immortal herb. He laughed, "This lunatic is actually doing me a favor at little cost."
"That's … a Blood Demon Dragon Ginseng?"
Qin Shi clicked his tongue. Dragon ginseng was a treasure even rarer than ginseng. It was said that only one dragon ginseng would appear every few thousand years. It was an even more precious immortal herb than ganoderma, ginseng, and knotweed. As for the Blood Demon Dragon Ginseng, it was a treasure that even the Demonic Talisman fought over. Even the Transcendent Realm experts, the group of Supremacies, and the three leaders of the first hall coveted it. It was an immortal herb that could heal ferocious demons.
To the heavily injured nefarious devil, this was undoubtedly a timely help.
The nefarious devil smiled and said, "I won't stand on ceremony with this Blood Demon Dragon Ginseng."
Qin Shi frowned and scolded with a smile, "You really talk a lot of nonsense."
The nefarious devil glared at Qin Shi, but soon smiled in gratitude. Only then did it unceremoniously store the Blood Demon Dragon Ginseng into its totem.
As for the other treasures, Qin Shi stored them all in his spatial ring. Soon after, Qin Shi's gaze fell on the 4900 Lightning God Beads outside the palace.
"It's really a bountiful harvest this time."
Qin Shi smiled. Just the 4900 Lightning God Beads alone were more than enough to cover everything here. Just as Dao Qing had said, with the 4900 Lightning God Beads, he would be able to protect his life against any Transcendent Realm expert, and even kill them. Coupled with the endless treasures from the ancient ruins battlefield and the palace, he felt that his trip to the deep sea Genesis reservoir would come to an end here.
Swish!
However, at this moment, in the sky in the depths of the altar, where Dao Qing's remnant spirit had disappeared, a golden halo suddenly shot towards Qin Shi like a cannonball, ultimately landing in Qin Shi's palm.
Qin Shi's eyes could not help but change when he grabbed the halo. When he held it in his hand, he felt as if he was holding the world in his hand?
Qin Shi stared at the halo in amazement, feeling an indescribable sense of submission from it.
