Four days had passed since the Chaotic Territory War. In a quiet, pitch-black hut.
The hut was deep underground, and its surroundings were sealed by a powerful Boundary Formation. If one looked outside through the Boundary Formation, they would find that it was the Eagle City's black market.
Bu Jingxian's green robe was still fluttering in the wind. Qin Shi was lying in the stone coffin in the middle of the hut. Inside the coffin was a Spirit Gathering Formation made of top-grade Mysterious Crystal. It was filled with dense Spirit Power.
Bang!
Bu Jingxian increased the force of his palm and injected a strand of life force into Qin Shi's body. The moment that life force appeared, Qin Shi's face immediately turned pale.
He took a few deep breaths and frowned as he stared at Qin Shi in the coffin. Qin Shi's entire body was covered by the black seal. The vitality did not have any effect. The seal kept nibbling away at Qin Shi's skin. It was chilling to watch.
"Little fellow, hang in there. I can only help you this much. Whether or not you can get through this calamity will depend on yourself in the end."
He shook his head indifferently. The Demon Devouring Spirit Bugs were too strong. They were poisonous bugs that even Domain Realm experts were afraid of.
Crack!
Just as Bu Jingxian's mind was focused on Qin Shi's body, a chill made him tense up. A crack appeared in the space behind him, and a huge sword ray shot out.
Bang!
He reacted quickly and raised his hand. A layer of intertwined Domain Barrier shot out. Boom! The two forces were like two ancient beasts fighting for their food, creating a huge wave in the hut.
Rumble!
The wave was very wild. If it wasn't for the hundreds of defensive Boundaries in the hut, the hut would have been turned into ashes.
But even so, the huge shockwave destroyed nearly a hundred barriers and tore a few spiderweb-like cracks on the walls. Only then did the power barely stop.
"Bu Jingxian, you're really good at hiding. How did you manage to find me in this godforsaken place?"
After that, a frivolous, petite figure jumped out from the crack. It was the old Taoist Feng Sha, who was wielding his greatsword while cursing.
Bu Jingxian glared at the sandstorm and said, "This is the Eagle City Black Market. You didn't use the door but chose to barge in through the crack in space. Who can you blame?"
Feng Sha shrugged his shoulders disapprovingly. Soon after, his shifty eyes glanced at the stone coffin and his expression became slightly serious. "What?
This kid hasn't recovered yet? "
Both of them looked at Qin Shi. Bu Jingxian sighed and shook his head. Including the previous time, this was the fourth time he had transferred vitality to Qin Shi. However, Qin Shi's condition did not improve at all.
"Those three old bastards from the Realm of Chaos! I can't believe they would do such a thing!"
Feng Sha cursed. However, there was nothing he could do about the Demon Devouring Spirit Insects. He could only watch anxiously and helplessly ask Bu Jingxian, "Old Bu, you've been in seclusion for nearly a thousand years. You haven't asked about the world for hundreds of years. Why did you make an exception for this kid?"
However, Bu Jingxian was not in a hurry to answer Feng Sha's question. Instead, he laughed and said, "Haha, you speak as if you've never asked about the world in the past thousand years. Ever since Qi Qing fell in the East, you haven't shown yourself for a thousand years either."
"That's different. I came out of seclusion for Qi Qing."
Feng Sha suddenly became serious. He withdrew his arrogance and stared at the sword-shaped necklace on Qin Shi's neck with his muddy old eyes.
"Qi Qing?"
"That's right. This pendant is the sacred item of the Sword Sect. It was the spirit of the Sword Sect that Qi Qing wore."
"The spirit of the Sword Sect?"
Even Bu Jingxian, who was at the peak of the continent, trembled when he heard those words. His eyes became serious. "You mean, this necklace is one of the Eight Great Ancient Ominous Weapons, the Sword Sect's spirit?"
"That's right."
Feng Sha smiled bitterly. He didn't hide anything from Bu Jingxian. He looked at the dull pendant and shook his head. "Even though it's been three thousand years, I can't be wrong."
Bu Jingxian came to a sudden realization. His calm eyes finally flashed with a strange luster as he looked at the necklace. "No wonder your sword light couldn't harm this kid in the chaotic region."
"Haha, of course. The Sword Sect's spirit is the king of swords. No sword can touch it. Otherwise, why would I be so heavy-handed?" Feng Sha stroked his beard and laughed.
"That's not strange. Even you appeared. But you're telling me this. Aren't you afraid that I'll take the Sword Sect's spirit for myself?"
Bu Jingxian smiled faintly. "An Ancient Ominous Weapon. That's a treasure that can make heaven and earth go crazy."
"Haha, you won't. Although an Ancient Ominous Weapon is precious, it doesn't mean that you care too much about it. Who doesn't know that you've already seen through the mortal world? Let's not talk about the Ancient Ominous Weapons. Many of those famous Supreme Weapons came from your Eagle City's black market. Which one of them could tempt you?"
Hearing this, Feng Sha wasn't interested. He pointed at Qin Shi's waist and teased, "Moreover, you're wrong. It's not one, it should be two."
Bu Jingxian couldn't help but be surprised by Feng Sha's analysis. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. He really had no interest in these mundane things. He laughed and said, "Yes, it should be two. The Chaotic Realm's Eight Desolate Jade Hook and the Sword Sect's Sword Sect's Spirit. This little kid is really amazing."
"Yes, one person has two Ancient Ominous Weapons. It's been a thousand years." Feng Sha nodded in agreement.
"So you're saying that you came to find this kid to take the Sword Sect's spirit?" Bu Jingxian asked directly.
Feng Sha shook his head. "No. Three thousand years ago, Qi Qing was chased by the Ming Group. Before she died, she sent a message to the Sword Sect saying that she would choose someone to inherit the Sword Sect's spirit."
"Is that true?"
"Yes. That's why I want to bring this kid back to the Sword Sect. Moreover, Qi Qing's death is still a mystery. I also want to know what exactly happened back then. All of this will depend on the spirit of the Sword Sect." Feng Sha's face turned a little ugly. The sorrow in his eyes was extremely obvious.
However, he was, after all, an old man who had lived for more than a thousand years. He was very good at controlling his emotions. After a fleeting moment, he returned to normal and smiled at Bu Jingxian. "Now, it's your turn. I've already told you about me. Why are you helping this kid?"
"Me?"
Bu Jingxian's pale face flashed with bitterness. It was as if he had sunk into a very deep sea of memories. In the end, he sighed and said, "It's about the same as you. This kid also inherited the legacy of an old friend of mine."
"An old friend of yours?"
Feng Sha squinted his eyes in a strange manner. He smiled and said, "Old man, don't tease me. Everyone knows that you are an iceberg. No one can get close to you. How could you have an old friend?"
Bu Jingxian glared at him and said, "Why wouldn't I?
And you know this person too. "
"I know him too?"
Feng Sha was a little surprised. Then, he became serious again. His mind spun quickly. Immediately, an extremely mysterious figure appeared in his mind. He was shocked and said, "Are you talking about that person?"
Feng Sha's expression became serious when he heard the person Bu Jingxian mentioned. This kind of seriousness was something he had never shown when he was facing the three protectors of the Chaotic Lands.
Bu Jingxian faintly smiled and helplessly nodded his head. "That's right, it's that person."
Clang!
Feng Sha's heart trembled. His expression didn't look like that of an old man who had lived for thousands of years. Instead, he looked like a child who had just entered the world and was frightened by the outside world.
"World's End of the Rain?"
The four words trembled and echoed in the small room. Suddenly, the air in the room seemed to freeze. It was very tense.
Feng Sha could never forget that a thousand years ago, when Bu Jingxian wasn't the boss of Eagle City's black market, he had fought hand in hand with him to conquer the world. He was a terrifying guy with an immortal body.
In that era, the Sweet Pouring Rain Technique had dominated the entire human world. Even the eight regions had to respect him. Moreover, World's End of the Rain's cultivation was extremely exaggerated. It was comparable to the eight region masters.
But later on, Yu Luo Tianya was inexplicably chased by the Pi team and finally fell in the East without leaving a corpse. Since then, no one had heard any news about him. Just like Qi Qing, he disappeared.
Because of this, Bu Jingxian retired. Ever since World's End of the Rain fell, Bu Jingxian had been trapped in Eagle City's black market. He no longer cared about the world.
"I can't believe that this little guy has inherited his legacy.
No wonder I always felt that there was something strange about him in the Chaotic Realm. Although his foundation is extraordinary, he can still stand after suffering so many fatal injuries. Even if his foundation is about to shatter, he can still stand. "
Feng Sha looked at Qin Shi in sudden realization. His eyes revealed a trace of surprise. "First it was Qi Qing, and now it's World's End of the Rain. He can be said to have gathered the most glorious ancestors in the world. How terrifying."
"Not only that, you should have sensed the demonic nature from before. The miracles on this little guy are far more than that. Perhaps there are even more things that will surprise both you and me."
Feng Sha nodded his head in agreement and said, "Yes, perhaps this is his fate. I always feel that this kid will do something earth-shattering in the future. That kind of thing is something that you and I will never be able to reach."
"I only hope that he can endure this calamity. I've always felt that this time around, after all, is a bumpy road for him. If he can pass through it, he will definitely undergo a huge transformation. That transformation is like a butterfly breaking out of its cocoon. It's a change in quality." Bu Jingxian smiled as his old eyes gradually shifted towards Qin Shi.
Feng Sha was the same. They stared at that handsome face. Anxiety appeared in their eyes. Whether or not he could get through this, it all depended on him.
The two of them couldn't help much.
