Chapter 415 Grudges Settled, Old Demon Qingyang
In the Great Hall, after hearing this, Qin Ming vaguely associated it with a familiar figure.
But he didn't interrupt Nalan Xi's words, only listening to her continue to say:
"This person, whether in courage or skill, far surpasses any of the Demonic Sect before. He originally did not belong to any Demon Sect."
"Yet in just a few decades he rose up. Now his cultivation has even broken through to the Late Golden Core Realm, becoming the person with the highest cultivation among the Six Demonic Sects."
"Of course, Fellow Daoist Qin, you are very different after returning this time."
Qin Ming heard this and immediately asked bluntly, "Is that person's name Lin Zixiao?"
As soon as these words came out, Nalan Xi and Gu Qingzhao exchanged a look, directly stunned on the spot.
"Uh... exactly."
"Could it be... Fellow Daoist Qin knows this Peerless Demonic Figure?" Gu Qingzhao asked in surprise.
Qin Ming slowly nodded, "Yes, that's right. It's more than just knowing each other. I and this person, when we were in Green Sun Market, were neighbors for several years."
Then, he told them about the grudges and grievances with Lin Zixiao back then, during which he omitted some things that were inconvenient to reveal.
Hearing Qin Ming's detailed explanation, it was indeed beyond the expectations of the two women.
"Unexpectedly, Fellow Daoist Qin and this Peerless Demonic Figure also have such grudges and grievances." Nalan Xi, after listening, also couldn't calm down for a long time.
Gu Qingzhao hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Then Fellow Daoist Qin, returning this time, what is your specific cultivation now?"
Because soon they will face such a Fierce Demon with a ruthless nature and supreme cultivation, she is also slightly worried.
"Golden Core Perfection," Qin Ming said calmly.
Buzz~ Even though they didn't dare to believe it, but getting confirmation directly from Qin Ming's mouth, the minds of the two women went blank, and they also couldn't recover for a long time.
In the gazes looking at Qin Ming, it was even more complex.
Besides sincere congratulations, there was also a strong sense of envy.
In addition to this, with him guarding the Southern Wastelands Four Kingdoms, it can be considered saved, and there is no need for the two of them to struggle to support it anymore.
"Congratulations Fellow Daoist Qin, only one last step away from the Nascent Soul Path, congratulations." The two women congratulated again.
Qin Ming smiled slightly and wasn't overly modest.
Because they probably don't know that he has returned this time to prepare for the Nascent Soul Formation in the Southern Wilderness.
In their understanding, even if Qin Ming reached Golden Core Perfection, without eighty to one hundred years of preparation, it would be very difficult to explore the Nascent Soul Realm.
After all, for a Golden Core Cultivator to impact the Nascent Soul Stage, not only talent and opportunity are needed, but also corresponding vast resources and luck.
This is also why Path Seekers are as numerous as carps crossing a river, while Path Attainers are few and far between.
While speaking, Qin Ming raised his hand and waved.
A streak of blood-colored light flashed, and two huge black pig heads rolled onto the floor.
Immediately he cast a spell towards the heads on the ground, casting a Magic Art.
*Pfft!*
Two huge beast heads were like watermelons, bursting open in response. From inside emerged a piece of pitch-black crystal fragment, emitting a nauseating smell.
Complex Runes are also engraved on it.
Qin Ming raised his hand and beckoned, took the Demon Crystal in front of him for observation. With a very certain expression, he said to the two women:
"In my opinion, this Beast Tide is different from before. It must be someone manipulating behind-the-scenes."
Nalan Xi and Gu Qingzhao saw this scene and also deeply agreed, their gazes revealing solemnity.
"In my opinion, eight or nine out of ten it's that Demonic Sect Lin Zixiao playing tricks. I returning this time will also take the opportunity to completely resolve this matter." Qin Ming's gaze turned slightly cold, and with a grasping motion of his empty palm, he turned the black crystal in the Air into Dust.
He is very clear that Lin Zixiao's Luck is also really not small, and that there lives an Old Man in his body. He really cannot be underestimated.
After Qin Ming communicated with the two women for half a day, he roughly grasped the situation of the Southern Wilderness.
Immediately he did not stay much longer and wanted to bid farewell and leave.
At the moment of parting, Gu Qingzhao suddenly came over and bowed deeply to Qin Ming, sincerely thanking him, "For decades, thank you Fellow Daoist Qin for taking care of This Sect's business in Great Jin, otherwise it wouldn't have developed so quickly."
"Old Jia has told me, if it weren't for you, Fellow Daoist Qin, I'm afraid Mirror Snow Pavilion's business wouldn't be what it is today."
"Hehe! Daoist Friend Gu, you don't need to be polite. We just took what we needed from each other. I didn't lose out either, and got quite a few benefits."
"Moreover, if I, Qin, return to Great Jin in the future, I will still need this identity of Mirror Snow Pavilion." Qin Ming smiled faintly.
"Fellow Daoist Qin will still leave? ... That's right, with your ability, the mere Southern Wilderness also won't become a place that restrains you." Gu Qingzhao said with a slightly lonely expression.
Qin Ming exchanged a few pleasantries with her and didn't look at her reaction. He released the Soaring Sky Treasure Carriage again, turned into a five-colored Stream of Light, and left Azure Sea Immortal City.
Nalan Xi and Gu Qingzhao watched Qin Ming leave into the distance, their gazes complex and silent for a long time.
At the same time.
Inside Vast Sea Immortal City, the heavy news of the return of the Southern Wilderness Legendary Cultivator has already exploded in the Inner City.
"What?! The Island Master of Moon Gazing Island has returned?"
"That's right! The one who killed the Black Mane Demon King with one move earlier was Perfected Person Moon Gazing."
"What terrifying strength is this? I'm afraid it has already reached the Late Golden Core Stage, right?"
"More than that, didn't you see how majestic that crocodile Demon Beast pulling the carriage is? At least it must be a Mid-Third Stage or higher Demon King."
"There are still people saying True Person Qin went into Death Seclusion, it seems they are all rumors!"
"The supreme scene of instantly killing the Black Mane Demon King and defeating the Beast Tide just now, even if you said a Core Formation True Lord has arrived, I would believe it!"
"True Person Qin returned powerfully, maybe he can resolve the great calamity of our Southern Wilderness."
"..."
In a short time, the news of Perfected Person Moon Gazing's powerful return, like a tide, quickly swept across the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World.
...
Inside the Soaring Sky Treasure Carriage, Qin Ming's eyes flickered incessantly.
After some understanding, he decided before returning to the Island to first solve this malignant tumor of the Six Demonic Sects.
And by the way, settle the past grudges with Lin Zixiao, settling them all at once.
In this way, he can then peacefully plan the upcoming Nascent Soul Grand Affair.
Otherwise, with Qin Ming's steady character, he very much dislikes the feeling of having a thorn in his back.
Qin Ming now has the Soaring Sky Treasure Carriage, and also has the Mysterious Water Crocodile and Azure Wave Sea Horse pulling the carriage. His Escape Speed in flight can be said to be no slower than a Core Formation True Lord.
Only after ten or so days, he arrived at the Jin Kingdom Border.
...
Cliff Cave, Back Mountain of Yuan Demon Sect.
Lin Zixiao in a Black Robe, in his hand, was caressing a Buddha Mask, saying to himself, "Unconsciously, I and Fellow Daoist Qin have already had over a hundred years of intersection."
"Unexpectedly! This Seat even thought... Fellow Daoist Qin, after the Battle of Tai Lake, would Disappear Without a Trace from then on."
"Unexpectedly, unconsciously, he has returned to the Southern Wilderness again."
"In these decades, I also don't know to what extent Fellow Daoist Qin has grown."
At this time, an extremely old voice came from Lin Zixiao's body:
"Heh heh heh! With the Demonification Technique I taught you, the Black Mane Demon King you cultivated was easily killed by him. It's not hard to see that this kid has already become something significant, and I'm afraid he is no less than you now."
"Even more so, you kid are already not his opponent. You better quickly think about how to run away. Don't think about your Great Unification of the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World."
"Mere Tiny Place, such a vision is really shallow and ignorant. Wasted my effort parasitizing in your body."
"Heh heh heh!"
On Lin Zixiao's cold and stern face, the gaze in his eyes flickered. He said somewhat unwilling to believe, "Old Ghost, impossible, right? I only used less than two hundred years and already Cultivated to the Late Golden Core Realm."
"Qin Ming cannot be faster than me, right?"
The old voice was full of contempt and disdain, saying lightly, "That's because you are Shallow and Ignorant. I see that kid's Fortune is Extraordinary, and he should also have inherited some amazing Inheritance."
"Maybe, now his cultivation compared to you is only stronger, not weaker."
"Listen to my advice, don't have any Grand Illusion of Great Unification of the Cultivation World. It's better to let me recover some Strength."
"Heh heh heh!"
Lin Zixiao's gaze was gloomy and cold, angrily shouting, "Shut up! Old Ghost! Believe it or not, This Seat will throw you into the Soul Refining Pool, never to be reborn!"
"Alright, alright, alright! I was kind and well-intentioned in thinking for you, but was treated as an Ungrateful Person. Do whatever you want!" Having said that, the old voice in the air directly fell into Silence.
Just at this moment.
A Black-Robed Cultivator came in from outside and reported to Lin Zixiao, "Big Brother, latest information came from below, saying that person has already left Azure Sea Immortal City."
"Oh? Did you specifically find out where he went?" Lin Zixiao's gaze flickered slightly as he said.
The Black-Robed Cultivator was embarrassed for a moment, "Uh, the other party's Escape Art is too fast, and the people staking out on the periphery didn't keep up. Uh... eight or nine out of ten he should have returned to his Base, Moon Gazing Island."
"You let the people of the Six Demonic Sects send some people to Probe his Trump Card. If this person is not eliminated for a day, This Seat's Great Unification will be difficult to achieve." Lin Zixiao said after pondering for a moment.
"As long as we can Control the Four Nations in our hands and Gather Resources, not to mention Golden Core Perfection, with Old Ghost's help, even reaching the Nascent Soul Realm is possible, as long as we solve that person..."
"By then, kill people who block the way, kill Buddhas who block the way! Who else would dare to stop me?"
"The current Turmoil in the Southern Wilderness is my opportunity!"
Lin Zixiao is also ruthless and extremely cunning, clearly wanting to use the Cultivators of the Six Demonic Sects as Cannon Fodder, to Probe Qin Ming's specific Ability, and then be able to make a Countermeasure.
On the face of that Black-Robed Cultivator, a look of great joy appeared, and he was just about to bow and agree to retreat.
But the next moment.
Mysteriously, he suddenly felt a great Pressure Surge Over, like an Invisible Hand, Grip Tightly his entire person! *Bang!* Immediately that Black-Robed Cultivator was instantly crushed by the Five Elements Great Hand and turned into a Blood Mist.
Even the last Screams of Agony could not be uttered.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, it seems you Dread me, Qin? Unexpectedly, you don't hesitate to mobilize the Strength of the Six Demonic Sects to Probe my Ability with this."
"Why don't you Personally try?"
Suddenly.
A faint voice sounded from nowhere, suddenly startling Lin Zixiao greatly.
Lin Zixiao Suddenly Stand, unleashed his Divine Sense and scanned. Immediately in front of him, in a place where there was nothing...
Without knowing when, an Ordinary Appearance young man appeared, emitting a Youthful Aura, and was looking at himself with a calm expression.
"It's, it's you... Qin Ming!"
Lin Zixiao's gaze Suddenly Contract, and he subconsciously summoned a Black Knife. The Magical Power of his Late Golden Core Stage in his body was Activated with Full Strength, and he performed the Demonification Technique.
In an Instant, he transformed into a Four-Winged Demon, holding a Demon Blade, and Slashed out a Black Silk Attack towards Qin Ming. Instantly crossing a distance of several tens of feet, Invincible, he Violently Slash towards Qin Ming!
This slash poured in all of Lin Zixiao's life's Strength. He used Full Strength as soon as he made a move, Just in Case.
However.
In an Instant.
*Buzz~ Bang!* Just at this moment, a Black Shadow darted out, holding a Steel Fork and swept casually. Black Profound Light flashed and passed.
Lin Zixiao's Full Strength strike in Demonic Transformation state was unexpectedly extinguished by the opponent's casual sweep.
"Peak Stage of Tier 3 Partially Humanoid Great Demon!"
*Boom!* Immediately following.
A Vast Divine Sense Power that makes people's souls tremble, like an Overwhelming Mountain Collapse and Tsunami, Surge Over.
Making people unable to produce an Intention to Resist.
Lin Zixiao in Demonic Transformation state widened his eyes, revealing an Expression of Unbelievable Thing.
Under this Divine Sense Power.
His entire Demonic Body Stagnate instantly, as if Frozen in Mid-Air. The Black Knife in his hand made a Mournful Cry and even more so, it fell onto the ground.
Under this terrifying Spiritual Pressure, the Magical Power in Lin Zixiao's body was Forcibly Forced Backwards completely.
He looked at Ordinary Appearance Qin Ming with Resentment, as if he saw some Unbelievable Thing:
"Impossible for you! Nascent Soul Level Divine Sense Power!"
Qin Ming's gaze was Calm as Water, and he said in a voice as Calm as Well, "Nothing is impossible, Fellow Daoist Lin, if you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for having too much ambition."
"Southern Wilderness is my hometown, Qin. How can I allow you to Act Recklessly?"
In Lin Zixiao's gaze at this moment, only Resentment, Shock, and Puzzlement remained.
Only a few decades have passed. He, relying on Old Ghost's help, broke through to the Late Golden Core Realm, and felt that his Growth was already very fast.
No one in the Demonic Sect could compare to him.
But who would have thought that Qin Ming, this good neighbor who came out from Qingyang Market City together, unexpectedly stepped ahead of him and reached a Realm that he could hardly Reach.
*Whoosh!* Not giving him any chance.
The Black Steel Fork in Devouring Heaven Rat's hand swept past, and a piece of Mysterious Light lit up. Lin Zixiao's Head directly took flight and rolled onto the ground.
At this point, a generation of Fierce Demon who Dominated the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World, Fallen here.
Lin Zixiao Until Death his eyes were still Staring Wide-Eyed, seeming to dare not believe all of this.
Qin Ming Flick a Finger, performed Thorn Technique to Suck Dry his Corpse and turned it into a Blood Bead.
However, just at this moment.
A Gray Phantom, taking advantage of Qin Ming and Devouring Heaven Rat not paying attention, unexpectedly, from Lin Zixiao's Dried Corpse, in Desperate Flight, turned into an Afterimage, wanting to Flee.
*Boom!* A Mockery Hint flashed across Qin Ming's lips. Qin Ming casually waved his hand, and a Blood-Colored Curtain enveloped the entire Space.
This was precisely the Tier 3 Peak Grade Demonic Treasure he obtained from the Demon Sect Sacred Child of Blood Refinement Demon Gate - the Asura Heavenly Tent.
That Gray Spirit Body Violently Collide against the Blood-Colored Wall, almost Crumble.
"Oh my!"
"Fellow Daoist Spare my Life!"
Qin Ming fixed his eyes and looked, but saw that this Spirit Body was a Gray-Haired Old Man in Ragged Clothes. At this moment he was extremely disheveled, Kowtowing Repeatedly towards himself with a panicked face, not having any Expert Demeanor at all...
Although he knew that Lin Zixiao could Growth so fast, it was definitely inseparable from this "Old Grandpa."
But he, regarding this kind of thing that is out of his Control, was not interested at all and wanted to Soul Destruction him.
But he only saw that Old Man quickly Wave Hand and Shout Loudly, "I am Qingyang Zi of Azure Origin Sect, I am Very Useful to Fellow Daoist! Please Show Mercy!"
"This Damnable Lin Zixiao, Willful, not listening to my persuasion, has Terribly Pitted This Grand Elder, really Speechless! Waaah waaah waaah!"
"I, on Fellow Daoist's body, sensed the Magical Power Aura of the Azure Emperor Art. Definitely Don't Self-Inflicted Harm!"
"I am willing to offer a Natal Soul Fragment. From Now On, I will be at Fellow Daoist's command..."
Deeply Emotional, that Down-and-Out Old Man actually Lose Composure and Cry.
...
