Qin Shi clenched his fists. He could feel the flow of air within 500,000 meters around him. It was as if he controlled the life and death of all living beings within 500,000 meters.
In his own world, Qin Shi was the king.
One's own world, seizing a piece of the sky and transforming it into one's own world. Once one reached this level, one would possess the power to look down upon the heavens and earth.
"Hehe, you're finally willing to come out?"
Long Qi stepped forward and glared at Qin Shi with resentment in her eyes. "You were the one who said those arrogant words and caused so much trouble. You actually went into seclusion for half a month?"
Qin Shi laughed bitterly. He naturally understood what Long Qi meant. Half a month ago, when he had been in seclusion, he had known that once news of him making a move against the House of Three Purities got out, it would stir up the entire 7,000 Sea Palaces. At the same time, the House of Three Purities would not sit idly by. In this period of time, the pressure on the Qin Palace could be imagined.
"It's been hard on you these days."
Long Qi shook her head helplessly. "It's nothing for me. I have the Long family as my background. Forget the outer regions, no one in the 3,000 inner regions would dare to cause trouble for me. It's just that Li Shu, Lu Peng, and the others have been extremely busy these days. If you want to thank someone, thank them. When you weren't around, they were the ones supporting the Qin Palace."
Qin Shi nodded guiltily. He was indeed not good at management, and it was the same for the Qin Sect in the human world. He had always been a hands-off manager, letting Ling Xiao, Su Ming, and the others take care of it. Although he had obtained a lot of resources for the Qin Palace and the Qin Sect, compared to the manpower they had provided, it was far from enough. Without the support of these people, he wouldn't have been able to control any of them.
Li Shu, Lu Peng, and the others also stepped forward. Qin Shi patted their shoulders. "I won't say any unnecessary words of gratitude. We still have a long road ahead of us. We will always be together."
Li Shu and Lu Peng were touched. Although the Qin Palace was tiring, they felt it was worth it.
It was worth it to follow Qin Shi.
There was a burning passion in Li Shu's eyes. He always believed that only by following Qin Shi would he have the chance to participate in the greatest battle in the world.
"This is what we should do. You are the core of the Qin Palace. As long as your name is here, it's fine."
Qin Shi laughed bitterly. Why did he feel like a mascot when he heard this?
But thinking about it, whether it was the Qin Palace or the Qin Sect, it seemed that he had always been playing this role.
At this time, Long Qi turned to look at Qin Shi, feeling the Spiritual Energy within a five hundred thousand metre radius submit to him, and Qin Shi's body was filled to the brim with Spiritual Energy that could burst forth at any moment. He smiled and said: "Looks like your breakthrough this time was very successful?"
Qin Shi nodded with a smile. Breaking through to the advanced World stage this time could be said to be a matter of course for him. Actually, he had many chances to break through earlier. When he was refining his second Dharma in the Ancient Ruins Battlefield, and when he was in the blood pool of the Long Clan, he had felt the shackles of the advanced World stage. However, he had forcefully suppressed all of them. That was because he was clearly aware that his foundation was unstable at that time, and it was very likely that a gap would appear because he took too big of a step. That would have a huge impact on his future cultivation.
But it was different this time. This time, he had annihilated the Ten Direction Palace, which made his spiritual energy even purer, and his physical body had also improved to a certain extent. This made it so that he almost didn't encounter any obstacles in his breakthrough.
"In this half a month, has there been any movement in the Inner 3,000?"
Qin Shi asked Long Qi. Although the Qin Palace had now replaced the Ten Direction Palace and had achieved a certain level of success and status in the 7,000 Sea Palaces, they naturally had their own network of connections. But the periphery was still the periphery. When it came to the Inner 3,000, they could not compare to Long Qi. As a member of the Long Clan, Long Qi's control of the Inner 3,000 was far greater than that of ordinary people.
Long Qi nodded without hiding anything. He let out a long sigh and said, "The situation is not optimistic. The Palace of Three Purities has been investigating your background for the past half a month. They already know that you are from the Mortal World. Moreover, the Palace of Three Purities and the Palace of Three Purities have formed an alliance. I'm afraid it will be very difficult for the Long family to do anything about it."
"A Transcendent Realm?"
Qin Shi's eyes darkened. A Transcendent Realm cultivator was still a height that he had to look up to.
"Haha, the Palace of Death?"
Long Qi might not know the background of the Palace of Death, but Qin Shi was very clear.
"A Transcendent Realm cultivator must be from that place."
Qin Shi thought to himself. His eyes flashed coldly. "Haha, Team Bi, if you want to play, then I'll play with you to the end!"
Qin Shi had long listed the Palace of Death as a must-kill.
"What do you plan to do?"
"Can the Empress Dowager hold that Transcendent Realm cultivator back?" Qin Shi asked.
Long Qi nodded. "Don't worry about that. If that Transcendent Realm cultivator makes a move, the Empress Dowager will have a way to stop him. But the Palace of Three Purities is not weak either. Zong Yuanzi reached his own world of 900,000 meters not long ago. If I'm not wrong, he might be half a step into the Transcendent Realm now. Once he inherits the Mandate of Heaven, he will be like a carp leaping through the dragon gate."
"Don't worry about that. Since I dared to declare war on them, I naturally have enough confidence." Qin Shi laughed sinisterly, but his eyes flashed with murderous intent.
"Palace of Three Purities, this time I will let you know what a real nightmare is."
Qin Shi revealed a unique confidence, causing Long Qi to be slightly taken aback as a smile appeared on his face.
"Trust him. Isn't that what makes him the most charming?" Chen Yan said with a faint smile.
"Aren't you worried about him?"
"Of course I'm worried. But what can I do even if I'm worried?
He wants to do this. He wants to save people. Do you think he doesn't know how dangerous it is?
He definitely knows. In fact, he knows it better than anyone else. However, since he still wants to do this, there must be a reason. I'm his woman. Whatever he wants to do, I'll support him. At the very most, I'll accompany him in death, "Chen Yan said with a smile.
Long Qi stared at Chen Yan in shock … Just how great was this woman's love?
Qin Shi's exit from seclusion caused a huge commotion in the outer regions.
"Palace Master, I've already secretly prepared everything you asked me to do." At that moment, Li Shu handed a list to Qin Shi.
A trace of hostility flashed in the depths of Qin Shi's eyes. He snorted coldly, "Haha, very good. Since they want to die, then let's fulfill their wish. This will help us eliminate a potential danger."
"What potential danger?"
Long Qi asked curiously. Then, he took the list from Qin Shi's hand and was stunned. There were many names on the list. Moreover, they were all at the forefront of the outer regions and had some foundation. Behind these sea palaces, there were words of different shades of color. In this half a month, they had come into contact with the Three Purities Palace. To be more precise, they had come into contact with the Three Purities Palace. Some had leaked information, and some had even joined forces with the Three Purities Palace. They were prepared to counterattack when Qin Shi attacked the Three Purities Palace.
However, they would never know that all of this was under Qin Shi's control.
"This, this …"
"Why do you think I spread the news half a month in advance?" Qin Shi smiled confidently.
"So, you deliberately leaked the news of attacking the Three Purities Palace in order to make these sea palaces reveal their fox tails?" Long Qi said in disbelief. She didn't even know when Qin Shi had arranged for Li Shu to do so.
Qin Shi chuckled in silence.
He had just seized the outer regions, and his foundation was very unstable. Some of the sea palaces at the front were naturally not convinced. He knew this a long time ago, but he couldn't determine who it was. Although his soul force could detect people's hearts, he couldn't go to the four thousand sea palaces in the outer regions. Moreover, if he couldn't produce evidence, it would be self-defeating and he would lose the support of the people.
So, when he had just destroyed the Shifang Palace, he had instructed Li Shu.
Now, it was different. His Qin Palace had enough reason to kill them.
"En, good. When do we do it?" Li Shu asked politely, but his eyes were flashing with thick killing intent.
Hmph, do you really think that no one knows about your little tricks?
You are just courting death!
"We can do it now," Qin Shi said lightly.
"Now?
Then, Palace Lord, what about the Three Purities Palace …? "
Li Shu was stunned. Although he knew that Qin Shi wouldn't let go of these fence-sitters in the outer regions, he had to wait until the troubles of the three thousand palaces were solved.
Now, the Qin Palace's troops were not enough to mobilize both sides.
Li Shu, who had read a lot of military books, knew this very well.
"I don't need you guys at the Three Purities Palace. I can go alone," Qin Shi said lightly.
"You're going alone?" Li Shu was surprised.
Qin Shi nodded without hiding anything. Since he was ready to attack the Three Purities Palace half a month ago, he had never thought of using the power of the Long family or the Qin Palace.
The Long Family was because of the Long Family's curse. Although the news of the Long Family lifting the curse had spread like wildfire within the Three Thousand Purities Palace, Qin Shi was very clear that the Long Family's curse had not been lifted at all. Back then, he had only lifted the curse of the three siblings of the Long Family. It was fine to scare the Three Purities Palace, but once they really fought, they would definitely be exposed.
As for the Qin Palace, their strength was insufficient. The gap between the three thousand palaces and the outer regions was huge. World Realm experts were rare in the outer regions, but the three thousand palaces were the standard. Now, the Qin Palace's strength was very strong in the outer regions, with several World Realm experts, but compared with the three thousand palaces, especially a behemoth like the Three Purities Palace, they were far behind. Moreover, the method he used to destroy the Three Purities Palace was to have as few people as possible.
Li Shu was silent. He quickly understood what Qin Shi meant. Now, they were just ants to the Three Purities Palace and would only become a burden to Qin Shi.
"I'll go with you."
"You don't have to!" Qin Shi interrupted Long Qi. "You stay in the outer regions."
"But …"
Long Qi opened her mouth again, but was suddenly interrupted by Qin Shi. "You stay in the outer regions and help me take care of the Qin Palace!
I have my own ways to deal with the Three Purities Palace. "
"Although the Qin Palace is now the overlord of the outer regions, its position and foundation are not solid. Once I leave, if you're not here, the Qin Palace will only have Chen Yan. Chen Yan alone will not be able to stop the sea palaces' counterattack. Your status is different. You must stay here and help me suppress the Qin Palace!"
"No matter what, Qin Palace can't have any mistakes!" Qin Shi emphasized again.
Long Qi fell silent. At this time, she suddenly remembered Chen Yan's words. "Yes, trust."
Long Qi nodded. "Alright, I understand!
But you must be careful! "
Seeing this, Qin Shi felt much more relaxed. Then, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly looked into the distance.
