The Qing Luan Sect disciples were dumbfounded by the sudden change in the situation. Each of them stared at Qin Shi as if he was a monster.
The elder who spoke first wore a solemn expression as he panicked inwardly. The two disciples who came forward just now were both at mid Arcane Spirit realm and above. This kid is only at First Layer Heaven realm, yet he was able to kill them in one move?
Such terrifying strength … could this person really be Lin Yu's helper?
The eight enforcers aren't here right now. If we fight with this person, we won't be able to gain any advantage. No matter what, we need to calm him down first.
Thinking of this, he raised his head and said to Qin Shi in a trembling voice, "Little brother, don't be in such a hurry to act. Let's talk things over."
Raising his brow, Qin Shi let out a sinister smile and said, "Hehe, this elder must be joking. It seems that your people attacked first, I didn't say anything wrong."
The Qing Luan Sect elder was embarrassed by the rebuttal. He scolded the disciple in Qin Shi's hands, "Unfilial sons, how have we taught you in the sect?
Hurry up and apologize to this little brother! "
"Elder … you can't, he just killed one of our brothers. Should we apologize to him now?" Hearing this, many disciples shouted with unwillingness and agitation.
"What, my words don't carry any weight?" Not allowing the disciples to speak, the leading elder glared at them with a fierce expression.
He knew very well that if he angered Qin Shi, it wouldn't just be a matter of one or two disciples dying.
After being reprimanded, the disciple could only grit his teeth and squeeze out a few words at Qin Shi, "I hope you won't take it to heart if we offended you just now."
Seeing this scene, Qin Shi frowned. With his many years of experience, he could see through the Azure Luan Gate Elder's goal with a single glance. He thought to himself, "You want to appease me first and stall for time?"
Realizing this, he raised his hand and interrupted, "There's no need to apologize. I'm sure you've heard what I said. Tell me where Zhou Qin is right now. Otherwise, I don't think today's matter will end well."
The three heavenly realm elders looked embarrassed and exchanged glances. One of them stepped forward and said, "Sir, forgive me for speaking out of turn, but Zhou Qin, the Crown Princess, is an honored guest invited by Empress Xiao Chong to our Qingluan Gate. We are fully responsible for her safety. What business do you have with her?"
"Hehe, do you really think I'm deaf?"
There was a limit to Qin Shi's patience. He knew that if he delayed any longer, it would be even more difficult for him to save Zhou Qin once the Eight Protectors Gao Xing mentioned arrived. At that time, it would be even more difficult for him to save Zhou Qin with his current cultivation. For this reason, his eyes narrowed and the veins on his palm suddenly bulged. The Qing Luan Sect's disciple in his hand had a hideous expression on his face, and in the next moment, his head was separated from his body.
Bang!
The Qing Luan Sect's disciples were shocked when they saw the rain of blood.
Never had they expected that Qin Shi would suddenly attack, and his methods would be so vicious.
"I'll ask you one more time, tell me where Zhou Qin is."
At this point, Qin Shi opened his eyes and grabbed a disciple from the Qing Luan Sect. He directly sucked the disciple into his hand from a hundred meters away. Qin Shi grabbed the disciple's throat and said coldly, "Let me remind you, you can lie, but every time you speak, I will kill one of you until there is no one left to kill."
"You …!" The three elders were infuriated.
"That's not the answer I want!"
As soon as the three uttered the word 'you', Qin Shi tightened his grip. In the next instant, blood rained down from the sky as another disciple's throat was snapped.
Qin Shi was never merciful to his enemies.
After killing three people, Qin Shi surveyed his surroundings. He made a grabbing motion in the air, and another disciple was caught in his hand. "Counting it, you guys still have thirteen chances!"
Hearing this, the three Qing Luan Gate elders were startled. They glanced to the side and realized that the thirteen people Qin Shi mentioned actually included the three of them?
"Hah, what an arrogant brat!"
After being ridiculed by Qin Shi a few times, the three of them finally couldn't take it anymore. The elder who spoke first took a step forward and raised his hand to gather his Qi. "Elders, help me kill this little bastard together!"
"Understood!"
The other two exchanged a glance and nodded seriously, surrounding Qin Shi from three different angles.
Suddenly, three waves of Heaven Realm spiritual pressure shot into the sky, dispersing the heat waves coming from the Jasper Lava Volcano into mist that filled the air.
"Twelve times!"
Qin Shi murmured unhurriedly in response to the three elders' actions. Then, he felt a warm sensation in his palm — it was the blood of the Qing Luan Sect disciples.
In the blink of an eye, four Qing Luan Sect disciples had died in his hands.
At this time, the three elders' attacks were also approaching his chest. He took a deep breath and laughed to himself, "Hehe, there are some people who don't listen to advice. Before doing anything, they are willing to think that they are too strong and think that their enemies are too small. They mistakenly think that this is self-confidence, but they don't know that this is arrogance and asking for humiliation."
Finished speaking, he fiercely raised his head. His piercing black eyes were like a block of ice that couldn't be melted, piercing towards the three of them like needles.
"Great Relic Art!"
A gust of wind brushed past his palm, and three golden relics appeared.
Peng!
His terrifying soul force was far from what the three of them could compare to. Their originally fast speed directly slowed down and they were in a deadlock for a moment.
In a fight between experts, every second could decide the outcome. After Qin Shi grasped this opportunity, his black eyes clearly calculated the position of the three people. He took a step forward, raised the Netherworld Sword in his hand, and stabbed towards the forehead of one of them.
Rumble!
The elder's eyes narrowed as he hurriedly dodged to the side. However, his arm was still cut open. It was just a small cut, but the corrosive power on it caused him to howl in pain, "Ahhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Little bastard, what did you do to me?! "
"This is not the answer I want!"
Ignoring the elder's cry, Qin Shi didn't even turn his head as he threw a golden light behind him. The golden light was extremely fast, piercing through the cold wind in front of him and piercing through the forehead of a Qing Luan Sect disciple.
Peng!
That disciple's expression froze in just a second. The cinnabar mark on his forehead flowed with fresh blood as his body fell to the ground.
After killing another person, Qin Shi revealed a faint smile, "Eleven times!"
In just a short moment, the three elders were terrified. Only now did they realize how terrifying the youth in front of them was. He was simply a demon.
The elder who spoke first grew anxious. He knew that if this continued, none of the eleven of them, including him, would be able to leave this place alive. He formed a hand seal and shouted, "Elders, help me use the Azure Luan Extermination Art!"
Peng!
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Shi flicked his finger again and a Qing Luan Sect disciple fell from the sky like a live target.
At this moment, the two elders who had just received the order forcefully swallowed the word 'good' that surged into their mouths. They could tell that as long as they dared to open their mouths and say something other than where Zhou Qin was, Qin Shi would kill one of them. For this reason, they hurriedly shut their mouths and moved sideways to the front of the elder who was gathering the hand seals.
"Qing Luan Killing Art!"
Three waves of spirit energy intertwined in the heat wave, creating an azure vortex that burst out from the hand seal. The runes on it were exceptionally clear and even carried a hint of antiquity.
The ancient patterns were like a demonic disc, forming into six points to form the Star Shift Formation. Between each star, there was a vast amount of spirit light compressed.
The light erupted like a volcano. The remaining disciples rejoiced at this scene and the tense atmosphere from before melted away. "It's the Qing Luan Killing Art. This kid is dead for sure this time."
"An ancient legacy?
Haha, I didn't expect the Qing Luan Sect to have such a martial art. "Qin Shi was rather surprised as he stared at the azure radiance.
Qin Shi had some understanding of martial arts left behind from ancient times.
His Burning Mist Mantra and Sword Art were both legacy martial arts that contained an ancient aura that far surpassed martial arts of the same rank.
For example, although the Qing Luan Killing Art that the three of them were using was a rank six martial art, the fluctuations contained within were not inferior to the Demonic Spirit Amaterasu.
"It seems that there are many interesting things in this empire. Not only the imperial family, but the overlords of these regions all have their own trump cards."
Facing this point, Qin Shi silently thought in his heart, "It seems that ever since I reached the Heavenly Realm, I have indeed been too complacent."
However, Qin Shi would never change his mind. The Qing Luan Killing Art that the Great Elder spoke of was not the answer he wanted to hear.
Bang!
Another disciple of the Qing Luan Sect fell.
With a wave of his hand to wipe out one person, Qin Shi became serious. The strange green light that pounced towards him was, after all, a rank six martial art that three Heaven Seizing realm s had joined hands to unleash. Even he could not afford to be careless.
"Since you guys want to play, this young master will accompany you."
A clear light flashed under his black eyes. Qin Shi's entire body was suffused with a golden light. His speed was extremely fast. Without giving the three of them time to react, he directly rushed into the center of the azure demonic disc.
Bang!
Qin Shi charged into the demonic disc. The three elders' turbid eyes lit up. A monstrous wave immediately surged out from the demonic disc. The cyan spiritual light was like a sharp sword as it swept towards Qin Shi.
Boom!
In the center of the demonic disc, Qin Shi's mental power covered a radius of ten thousand meters. There was a light smile on his face the entire time as he dodged with light steps. From time to time, he would release a few rays of golden light. In the blink of an eye, the two different colors of green and gold covered half of the clouds.
The battle between the three elders and Qin Shi was earth-shattering. In the blink of an eye, an hour later, the ground below the Jade Lava Volcano was filled with potholes and was pierced through by streaks of cyan sword Qi.
The three elders continued to circle around the demonic disc, and for a moment, they looked rather relaxed. On the other hand, Qin Shi was in the demonic disc, and had yet to break out, causing the remaining disciples of the Qing Luan Sect to heave a sigh of relief. "Looks like the three elders have the upper hand."
A sharp-mouthed disciple bragged, "Of course, this Qing Luan Killing Art is the proud martial art of the first generation Sect Leader of the Qing Luan School. It is said that it has been passed down for thousands of years and has been improved by countless generations of Sect Leaders. Once someone enters, there is no way they can come out alive!"
Unexpectedly, before he could finish his sentence, the people beside him all widened their eyes. One by one, they turned from relaxed to terrified.
"What's wrong with you guys?" The sharp-mouthed disciple asked in confusion.
"Gulp!" At the same time, a few disciples swallowed their saliva and said with a trembling voice, "You, what did you just say?
What happens to those who enter the Kill Art? "
"It's impossible to come out alive."
