In the following month, Qin Shi stayed in Desolate Town, staying with Yu Luocha and Qin Jinyan. Sometimes, he would show his filial piety by accompanying Qiong Shuyao to the market, enjoying the warmth of a family that was hard to come by for a short time.
During this period of time, he would also find a hot spring with Qin Tianqing and his son at night to quietly soak in it. Afterwards, they would discuss their next thoughts.
He had respected Qin Tianqing since he was young.
Although they would talk back and laugh at each other sometimes, it was natural, which made him feel a strong fatherly love.
He and Qin Tianqing cultivated in the Secret Realm behind Barren Town. He infused energy into Qin Tianqing's body with all his strength, and the energy flowed through Qin Tianqing's meridians.
For three days, he helped Qin Tianqing stabilize his energy. Now, Qin Tianqing's strength had reached six days. He was the most powerful person in the Qin family, except for Qin Shi.
Of course, he deserved this name. If it weren't for the Burning Sky Sect, he would have been the genius of the Qin family and the pride of Qin Shi.
During the process of guiding Qin Tianqing to cultivate, the two of them would also walk around the mountain behind Desolate Town. One day, the two of them walked along the mountain behind Desolate Town. Coincidentally, the two of them found a clear spring in a very hidden place.
"This spring is not a simple spring."
Qin Shi frowned. From the bottom of the spring to the top, he found that there was a strong spiritual energy in the spring. In the end, he found that there was a blue waterfall at the mouth of the spring. Between the sea and the sky, there was a silver curtain falling down. It was 3,000 meters high.
Staring at the top of the waterfall, Qin Shi's eyes focused. In that position, the sun shone, and there was a shining crystal.
Staring at the crystal, Qin Shi's heart suddenly beat wildly.
"Hiss …!" He gasped. "Is this a supreme-grade Mystic Crystal?"
"A supreme-grade Mystic Crystal?"
Qin Tianqing frowned. At first, he didn't understand. A moment later, he widened his eyes and shouted, "Brat, what did you say?
What is that? "
The Top Grade Mysterious Crystal was too precious. It was the most precious treasure in the entire continent. Qin Shi had read about it in an ancient book. Since the ancient war thirty thousand years ago, the Top Grade Mysterious Crystal had never appeared on the continent again.
Even in the ancient times, only a single piece had appeared 30,000 years ago, and that piece was in the possession of the Mortal Emperor. At that time, the Mortal Emperor was able to break through the limits of the human race in one go and attain a strength that was sufficient to go against the two ferocious devils. Besides the Evil Suppression Shattering Jade, it was also because of the influence of that top-grade Shattering Jade.
Therefore, Qin Shi didn't dare to make any further conclusions. His eyes narrowed into slits and he pondered for a moment before he focused on comprehending it. When the thick Spiritual Energy hit his soul, he clenched his fists tightly and nodded with certainty. "I can't be wrong. That's a supreme-grade Celestial Crystal … Even a perfected Domain Realm expert doesn't have this kind of power. Only supreme-grade Celestial Crystals can have this kind of power."
"Gulp …!"
Qin Tianqing gulped. What did it mean to find a supreme-grade Mystic Crystal in the back mountain of the Qin family?
It was a treasure that even the eight regions would go crazy over.
As he recalled the records in the ancient book, Qin Shi suddenly smiled. "It seems like I misunderstood our Old Ancestor. He did leave something for the Qin family … If this supreme-grade Mystic Crystal is used well, the future of the Qin family will be limitless."
"We can't let the outside world know about this," Qin Tianqing said resolutely.
Qin Shi nodded. This was not a joke. If the outside world knew that there was a supreme-grade Mystic Crystal in the back mountain of the Qin family, not to mention the entire human world, perhaps the entire three realms would come together to attack them.
By then, the destruction of the Qin family would only be a matter of time.
However, after a moment of silence, Qin Shi suddenly shook his head and said to Qin Tianqing, "Dad, I think we don't have to worry about this. The Mystic Crystal has been in the back mountain for so long and hasn't been discovered by the outside world. I think our Old Ancestor must have set up some kind of formation around it. Our worries are unnecessary. Why don't we think about how to make use of the Mystic Crystal?"
Qin Tianqing thought for a while and nodded, feeling that it made sense. Then, he said to Qin Shi, "Brat, you're the pillar of the Qin family now. You should think of a way to absorb the Mystic Crystal and see how much you can absorb."
"Me?" Qin Shi pointed at himself.
"What else? Could it be me?
I'm already an old man. My current ability is enough to protect the Qin family. However, you're different. You're still young and have many responsibilities on your shoulders. Plus, you're leaving soon. If you can absorb the Mystic Crystal, you should be able to improve a lot. It'll be good for you in the future too. I don't want to see you die before me. "
"Dad …!" Qin Shi widened his eyes and choked. "You … you know about it?"
Originally, Qin Shi thought that Qin Tianqing didn't know that he was leaving. However, it seemed that nothing could be hidden from him now.
Qin Tianqing laughed and scolded Qin Shi. "Brat, do you think your mother and I are stupid?
We didn't say it because we didn't want to put more pressure on you. "
Finished speaking, his tone suddenly turned serious. His words were full of vigor, and his aura was very strong. "But remember, the men of my Qin Clan, even if they die, they can only die in the Qin Clan. This time, when you leave … no matter what, you must return alive."
Swoosh. Qin Shi's eyes turned red. His heart was filled with warmth. In the end, it was his parents who were always thinking about him.
He lowered his head and nodded hard after a while. "I know. Don't worry. This is my home even if I have to go to the ends of the earth. I'll come back."
"Okay."
Qin Tianqing smiled with relief. Then, he waved his hand and pointed at the supreme-grade Mystic Crystal at the top of the waterfall. "Go and arm yourself. Don't embarrass the Qin family when you go out."
"Okay!"
Qin Shi answered. Then, he leaped up and walked toward the waterfall.
The spiritual power of the supreme-grade Mystic Crystal could be felt from the silver waves that kept hitting the rock wall. As soon as Qin Shi entered the water, he felt as if he had fallen into an ocean of pure spiritual power. Every inch was so dense.
Soon, his pores opened up, and all the hundreds and thousands of pores on his body opened up, allowing the powerful spiritual energy to enter his body.
Logically speaking, he had just broken through not long ago, and his body was still in the process of slowly adapting from the Six Heavens Realm to the Seven Heavens Realm. However, in such a short period of time, he felt that his skin had transformed, and the Dantian in his body had become very firm, like a rock that firmly supported the entire mountain under Mount Tai, firm and unbreakable.
"This power is indeed extraordinary."
He licked his lips greedily and quickened his pace.
To him, 3,000 meters was nothing more than the blink of an eye. However, due to the high density of spiritual power in the silver curtain, his pace wasn't fast. When he reached the top, it took him half a day. His entire body was slightly red and he was panting heavily.
However, when he fixed his eyes on the supreme-grade Mystic Crystal that was only inches away from him, he felt that everything was worth it. The corners of his lips curled up. "Haha, let me see how much of a breakthrough this supreme-grade Mystic Crystal can bring me."
He stretched out his hand and was about to grab the Mystic Crystal.
Bang!
Suddenly, before he could touch the Mysterious Crystal, a force like a dragon flying out of the sea hit him. His black eyes turned cold. All of a sudden, he lost his balance. Like a cannonball, he was sent flying out of the three-thousand-meter-high waterfall.
Rumble!
He crashed next to Qin Tianqing. Instantly, a crater appeared. His body was embedded hundreds of meters into the ground.
"Shi Tou!" Qin Tianqing became nervous.
Bang!
Qin Shi jumped up and jumped out of the crater. Qin Tianqing was much more at ease now. "Brat!
Are you okay? "
"No, I'm fine."
"What happened?" Qin Tianqing asked.
Qin Shi squinted his eyes. "It should be the formation that our ancestor left behind. The formation is too powerful. With my current ability, I can't even get close to the supreme-grade Mystic Crystal."
He patted Qin Shi's shoulder and said, "Since you can't get close to him, don't worry too much about it. Our ancestor isn't an ordinary person. But don't be discouraged. Although you can't do it now, I believe that you will be able to get close to him sooner or later. I believe that you will be able to surpass him. My son, I have faith in you. I believe that when that day comes, our ancestor will be very happy." Qin Tian Qing was enlightened after hearing what Qin Tian Qing said.
Qin Shi smiled in relief and said in a very natural manner, "Don't worry, Father. I know. I have already improved quite a bit in that short period earlier. However, I do not wish to give up. I want to use these few days to train in this waterfall. Just the silver curtain of this waterfall will be able to help me refine my body."
Seeing this, Qin Tianqing was relieved. He immediately agreed, "Alright, go and cultivate. I'll go out and talk to your mother and Luo Sha. Before I leave, it's always good to have more trump cards."
Qin Shi nodded. Then, he immersed himself in cultivation again. Seeing his son's serious expression, Qin Tianqing was happy. Then, he left quietly.
For the next half a month, Qin Shi stayed in the back of the mountain. He almost forgot to eat and sleep as he swam in the waterfall. He constantly used the waterfall to arm himself.
Although he didn't make any breakthroughs in the past half a month, he could clearly feel that he was improving. He had already reached the middle stage of the seventh-day level. If this speed was seen outside, people would go crazy.
During this time, he also tried to get close to the supreme-grade Mystic Crystal three times. However, the result was obvious. He was blown away by the formation outside. Once, he was almost seriously injured. Coincidentally, Yu Luo Sha came to give him lunch. Seeing this, Yu Luo Sha's heart ached and she cried.
Because of that, Qin Shi didn't take the risk again.
Then, at the end of the month, when the God Territory Sacrifice pushed the day of his departure closer, he finally stopped in the waterfall.
"Phew …!" He let out a long sigh and squinted his eyes. "Is it time?"
Thinking of this, he raised his head and was about to leave. He still couldn't let go of his stubbornness. His black eyes looked at the supreme-grade Mystic Crystal at the top of the waterfall.
