"Amaterasu!"
The four words were like the morning bell of an ancient tomb, echoing in the hearts of the crowd.
The dark black sun covered the sky, and it was filled with evil thoughts and resentment. It was accompanied by dazzling rays of light, devouring the remaining light between heaven and earth.
The blood clouds were buried, and the end of the mountain peak seemed to have been split by a giant sword. The natural moat turned into a completely dark space, as though it had become a lonely place abandoned by the world. Between the black sun and Qin Shi's hand seal, there was a tiny ray of light that was hard to be seen by the naked eye. The surging spiritual pressure in the ray of light caused a violent buzzing sound, causing the black sun to expand rapidly.
With the overdraft of 30% of the spiritual power, the black sun became a thousand feet wide.
Every piercing ray of light contained a terrifying power. Every time the power fell, the mountain would collapse, causing the crowd to clamor in fear. "What's going on?
What a terrifying power! "
"This is, Amaterasu?"
In the midst of the panic, someone suddenly shouted with a trembling voice.
The crowd seemed to have fallen into despair. "Is it the rank seven martial art that appeared in Green Lotus City not long ago?
Then, he … he is the brat who killed the Elder of the Mystical Palace? "
"What?"
They stared at Qin Shi in horror.
Shangguan Ba's eyes were wide open, and his heart was in a mess. This had already exceeded his expectations.
When he had used the Demonic Spirit Illumination, Qin Shi had already expected this. Because of this, he was not surprised. He controlled his palm and quickly poured spiritual energy into the black sun. What he needed to do now was to kill Cheng Xu in half a cup of tea's time.
"Brat, how dare you!"
When the black sun reached a thousand feet, the majestic giant beast was already nowhere to be seen. Cheng Xu, who could not hide in the darkness, was firmly locked on. An unprecedented fear appeared in his old eyes.
He never expected that the youth in front of him, who was not even 20 years old, was the mysterious youth who caused panic in Green Lotus City not long ago.
"I didn't want to use it at first, but since I have already used it, if I still can't kill you, then I will be ashamed of the rank seven martial art that even the Mystical Palace is fighting for." Qin Shi took a deep breath, and 80% of the spiritual power in his body was injected into the black sun.
"Die!"
Phantom shadows shot out in all directions, and the greedy black rays of light were like ferocious primordial beasts that tried to devour Cheng Xu. Under the Demonic Spirit Illumination, he did not have the slightest bit of struggle, and was directly pierced into a sieve by the thousands of rays of light. His vitality dissipated, and finally, he died tragically.
Along with Cheng Xu's death, the gigantic beast collapsed on its own and vanished without a trace.
"It's over?
The leader of the Blue Dragon faction is dead? "
During the entire process, the people below were dumbfounded. They only came back to their senses when the black sun dispersed and the blazing sun reappeared.
After killing Cheng Xu, Qin Shi dispersed his palm imprint. This was the first time he had used the Demonic Spirit Amaterasu in battle, and the shock it brought him was far beyond his imagination. Lowering his head to look at the mess in front of him, the Thousand Li Flat Plain was full of potholes.
"Killing a half-step Heaven Realm powerhouse with one strike. Is this the power of a rank seven martial art?
Not bad! "
The faint black light wrapped around Qin Shi's fingertips could not help but reveal a satisfied glow. Soon after, he did not show any change in his expression. Instead, he struck while the iron was hot and turned around to look down at the ground. He stared at the remaining disciples of the Blue Dragon faction and the remaining families, "Cheng Xu is already dead. Is there anyone here who is dissatisfied?"
Dissatisfied?
The crowd choked with sobs. Who dared to be dissatisfied?
Suddenly, a leader of a small family stood out. This person was someone that Qin Shi had some impression of before. It was the leader of the Yuan family, Yuan Xun. He cupped his hands towards Qin Shi and said, "Young friend Shi's strength is obvious to all. I admit that I am not your opponent. The Yuan family is willing to give up on this Spirit Origin Blood Pool."
With one person taking the lead, the other large and small families immediately followed suit and withdrew. The Spirit Origin Blood Pool could be considered to have fallen into the hands of the Shangguan family.
Qin Shi waved his hand in satisfaction and smiled. He then landed next to Shangguan Ba, "Shangguan family leader, it's all over. My five spots should still count, right?"
Standing shoulder to shoulder with Qin Shi once again, Shangguan Ba took a step back in fright. Then, he said in an unusually respectful manner, "Of course. It's all thanks to you this time. If you don't mind, I'm willing to give you two more out of the five spots of my Shangguan clan to show my gratitude!"
"Family leader!
You can't! "
"Shut up. If it wasn't for you, you would already be on your way to hell."
Behind them, Yan Dong and the other elders clenched their teeth in pain. However, they opened their mouths but could not say anything. Shangguan Ba was right. The unexpected appearance of the Blue Dragon Sect had ruined their plans. If it wasn't for Qin Shi, they would have been massacred a long time ago.
It was because of Qin Shi that the Spirit Origin Blood Pool, which they had missed out on, once again fell into their hands. It was already good enough to have three spots.
Yan Dong raised his head. He knew that even though he had already given Qin Shi a high evaluation, he had still underestimated the black-robed young man in front of him.
Qin Shi frowned and then smiled, "Haha, family leader, you're too kind. Since I've promised you, I'll definitely follow the agreement. As for the spots, five is enough."
Hearing that, Shangguan Ba raised his head in surprise. He then stared at Qin Shi and his carefree smile stiffened. The shock in his heart was self-evident.
Qin Shi did not say much to Shangguan Ba. Instead, he stood up and walked to the side of Xiao Mi, Cai and the rest. He checked on them and was relieved to see that they were not injured. He then expressed his concern.
After that, his piercingly cold gaze suddenly turned and shifted onto the bodies of the Azure Dragon School's disciples who were still alive. Originally, the army of three thousand, after fighting against the Shangguan family's disciples, only two thousand remained. Moreover, they were all riddled with wounds.
"Oh no!"
The few leading elders of the Blue Dragon Sect were horrified when they sensed Qin Shi's gaze. Then, Qin Shi smirked and walked toward them with his hands behind his back.
Looking at Qin Shi's actions, the crowd fell silent.
Everyone revealed looks of pity and helplessness. "This time, the Blue Dragon Sect is completely destroyed."
"It's hard to imagine that a great sect that could rival the four great sects is going to disappear so soon."
Qin Shi walked to the front of them and stared at their despairing faces. He could not help but smile. Then, he waved his hand and said, "Who's the one in charge here?"
"Hmm?"
The few elders were stunned. They looked at each other but no one dared to make a sound.
"Forget it if you don't want to say it. I'll make the decision myself."
Qin Shi shook his head somewhat helplessly. His gaze swept across the few people and suddenly landed on an old man who was as skinny as a match. This old man stood at the back and was different from Cheng Xu earlier. Qin Shi could feel a thread of kindness on his face. Because of this, he pushed his way through the crowd and walked in front of the old man. His tone was extremely polite, "Old senior, what is your name?"
The more polite he was, the more terrified the old man became. He pointed at himself and said, "Me?
I'm Cen Chi. "
"Cen Chi?"
Qin Shi silently remembered his name. Then, he raised his hand and patted the old man's shoulder a few times. "Alright, I'll choose you."
After saying those words, he did not explain much. Instead, he turned around and swept his gaze over the bodies of the Azure Dragon School's disciples next to him. He coldly said, "Right now, you have two choices. Either go and follow your school head, which is death, or serve me and follow me."
Hearing this, the crowd was surprised.
Shangguan Ba and Yan Dong looked at each other and did not speak.
"I'm willing to follow you!"
A quick-witted disciple was the first to speak. He immediately prostrated himself in front of Qin Shi and shouted, "Sect Leader Shi Qin!"
Everyone looked at each other. Between life and death, any normal person could make the choice. Therefore, two thousand people immediately knelt down and said, "We're willing to follow Sect Leader Shi Qin!"
"We're willing to follow Sect Leader Shi Qin!"
"Good!"
Looking at the army of two thousand people, Qin Shi revealed a satisfied expression. He immediately helped Cen Chi to the front and said in a clear voice, "I now appoint Senior Cen Chi as the Blue Dragon Sect's Enforcement Elder. From now on, seeing him is like seeing me. Anyone who dares to disobey will be killed!"
Hearing this, everyone, including Cen Chi, looked at Qin Shi in disbelief.
"Young friend … No, Sect Leader, I …"
Cen Chi opened his mouth in shock, but before he could finish, Qin Shi interrupted him with a smile, "Senior Cen Chi, there's no need to be modest. It's decided."
Cen Chi's qualifications and status in the Blue Dragon Sect were the lowest among all the elders present. He had never thought that he would be able to stand at such a high position. In fact, he had countless opportunities to rise to the top, but he was too inflexible and had never done anything like bribing. He would rather live a poor life than worry about the rich. Moreover, he despised those who relied on trickery without any real ability.
However, he did not know that it was precisely this advantage of his that was not a strength that Qin Shi had unearthed. In the near future, he would participate in the historic battle of the Wasteland Continent.
Although they were not convinced by Qin Shi's order, no one dared to disobey it. Only the few elders who had led the troops at the beginning looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
Just now, Qin Shi had given them a chance.
Since the battle with the Fen Sky Sect in the northern region, Qin Shi had realized that his own strength was too insignificant. For this reason, when he first came to the eastern region, he wanted to establish an independent force, a branch of the Qin Sect.
However, due to the vastness of the eastern region and the fragmentation of various forces, it was as difficult as ascending to heaven to develop a force from the foundation.
For this reason, he wanted to merge them. However, there were very few forces in the eastern region that met his requirements. It was impossible for the Xuan Palace, which was at the peak, to take over, and the four big families below were all inherited by families, far from what he could control alone. The emergence of the Blue Dragon Sect just made up for these impossibilities. So when he learned about the situation of the Blue Dragon Sect, Qin Shi suddenly had a whimsical idea.
After taking over the Blue Dragon Sect, Qin Shi did not say anything more. Instead, he called Cen Chi to the side of an empty stone and said softly, "Senior Cen Chi, there are a few things I want to tell you."
"Sect Master, please speak!"
Cen Chi sincerely admired Qin Shi. He knew that the reason why Qin Shi could stand here was definitely not because of opportunistic tricks, but because of real ability.
"With Cheng Xugang's death, the sect will definitely be in a mess. Without my permission, do not announce to the outside world that I am the sect master. Take these and use them to manage the sect. Cultivate some of your own confidants and wait for my summons."
After saying this, Qin Shi waved his hand and took out millions of spirit stones. Looking at his extravagant appearance, Cen Chi was dumbfounded.
Without waiting for him to speak, Qin Shi seriously lowered his head and condensed spiritual power in his palm. A powerful token floated in the air and he handed it to Cen Chi. "In addition, when I give the order, the Blue Dragon Sect will immediately change its name to Qin Sect!"
"Qin Sect?"
