But at this moment, an angry shout was heard.
"I want to see how you, Qin Ruâan, will make me, Qin Tian, disappear!"
When the voice appeared, even the Body Refining Realm cultivators and several Elders, who had shown fear in front of Qin Ruâan, looked more relieved. Qin Ruâanâs Realm put significant pressure on them. If he wanted, he could indeed kill them in a short period and leave at ease, and no matter how many people there were, they wouldnât be able to stop him.
Although this voice wasnât very crisp.
It was even somewhat hoarse.
But it was loud enough, like a mountain, giving them a sense of strength.
People originally standing at the vermillion doors immediately parted to make way, and Qin Tian slowly walked out with his hands behind his back, coldly staring at Qin Ruâan with somewhat cloudy eyes.
"Ancestor."
"Ancestor."
The Body Refining Realm members of the Qin Family immediately knelt on one knee.
The strongest of the main branch had arrived.
Qin Ruâan immediately responded, "Qin Tian, youâve finally emerged."
"Perfect timing, just in time to witness Qin Ruâanâs nonsense, now that Iâm here, do you still have anything to say? Speak out!" Qin Tian took a few steps forward, directly facing Qin Ruâan.
At this moment, they were just ten steps apart.
For a Half-Step Divine Profound, it was just a blink of an eye.
Bang!
Bang!
Two blue Meridian Gates opened in response.
As it vibrated, a sharp aura undulated from the sides of his hands.
Qin Ruâan glanced at it, his brows slightly furrowing, and suddenly laughed aloud, "Qin Tian, you must have gained a lot from that battle in the Secret Realm back then, havenât you? Itâs been some time since we last met, and your power has thickened quite a bit. It seems youâre not far from entering the Divine Profound Realm... Congratulations, congratulations."
"Scram!"
Qin Tian shouted in anger.
Then followed with a sentence, "No need for your false pretenses here, if I catch you making trouble again, donât blame me for disregarding our shared Vein ties."
"What if I donât leave?"
Qin Ruâan locked eyes with Qin Tian.
Neither spoke.
After a long silence, Qin Tian spoke, "If you donât leave, then this old man will send you off with a single sword strike!"
Saying that, Qin Tian already held a sword in his hand, its edge almost fully unsheathed, ready to draw at any moment.
Qin Hai hastily interjected at this point, "Qin Ruâan, tell Qin Chuan... if you want the position of Patriarch, follow the Qin Family rules, and weâll see the outcome in a few months. If he continues to cause trouble with the branch, donât blame me, as the Clan Leader, for stripping their branch of the Clan Leader position."
Ha ha!
Qin Ruâan suddenly let out a laugh.
The laughter was filled with mockery, and a hint of excitement.
"Do you really think itâs still like before?"
After laughing, Qin Ruâanâs expression halted abruptly, freezing into a stern look.
Bang!
A Vibrating Vein Sound was heard.
Blue Vein Qi rippled away, followed by another sound.
Bang!
However, this wasnât the end.
A blue Meridian Gate appeared in front of Qin Ruâanâs chestâFull Meridian Gate Opening!
"Divine Profound!"
"How is this possible?"
The Elders behind Qin Hai couldnât help but express their surprise, and the Body Refining Realm members of the Qin Family, who had regained some confidence due to Qin Tianâs presence, immediately became shaken again, glancing at each other and involuntarily stepping back.
The Divine Profound Realm.
An existence surpassing the Profound Realm.
To them, the Upper Profound Realm was already an unattainable Realm, let alone the Divine Profound.
Qin Haiâs expression also became extremely grim at this moment.
"Ha ha!"
Qin Ruâan laughed loudly, then his expression froze again, his figure suddenly disappearing at that instant, accompanied by another Vibrating Vein Sound.
Bang!
In the blink of an eye, Qin Tian flew out like a kite with its string cut, soaring into the Qin Family compound.
"Ancestor!"
"Ancestor!"
The crowd cried out in shock, but before they could rush in to check on Qin Tian, Qin Ruâan moved again.
He took a few steps forward and said, "Someone who has been stuck at Half-Step Divine Profound for thirty or forty years still carries arrogance in their bones, I really donât know what youâre thinking. I was thinking I might not encounter you on this trip, but unexpectedly, you jumped out by yourself to make a show of power for me..."
Cough coughâ
Coughing sounds followed.
"Ancestor!"
Qin Hai quickly went up, just in time to see the Ancestor getting up from the ground, blood oozing from his forehead and the corners of his mouth.
"I didnât expect you to have already reached the Divine Profound." Qin Tian held his chest, slowly walking out, but the Meridian Gate hadnât been retracted.
"Still want to fight?"
Qin Ruâan coldly smiled.
Speed and power were not on the same level, and no matter what Qin Tian did, he was not afraid.
After his laughter subsided, Qin Ruâan charged towards Qin Tian again, his Meridian Gate trembling, and a condensed blade in his hand ready to slash down.
Swoosh!
The blue Sword Aura descended.
Qin Tian hurriedly pushed Qin Hai aside, followed by his Meridian Gate vibrating, drawing his sword, raising it to meet the Sword Aura.
However, the gap in Realm was clear.
With the same Level of Vein Technique, having different Meridian Gates was two different outcomes.
Bang!
Pa!
The sound of the sword breaking was heard.
Qin Tian staggered back a few steps, holding the broken sword in both hands, his face turning as pale as snow.
He looked at Qin Anru, fear crossing his face.
Even though he blocked both the punch and the sword, the gap was too large, making him understand what powerlessness meant.
"Remember, three days!"
After making two moves, Qin Ruâan retracted his Meridian Gate.
"If you canât hand over the position of Clan Leader in three days, then youâll all have to die... I donât intend to keep a tiger that might eat me at any moment by my side."
With that, Qin Anru stepped away.
Leaving behind a figure that filled everyone else with despair.
A powerful Divine Profound Realm!
Even the Ancestor wasnât a match for him.
Who else in the main branch could stop their open plotâit had been a secret plot before, but now, after today, it was out in the open.
"Help the Ancestor back to recuperate!"
Despite also feeling despair, as the Clan Leader, Qin Hai couldnât show it.
The immediate task was to let the Ancestor recover from his injuries.
...
Immortal Sect.
A few days passed.
The Flying Ship Construction House successfully upgraded, and the flying ship upgrade Wen Ping had long awaited had arrived.
However, he now had little White Crystal in hand, only less than 200 pieces in total, which was possibly not enough to upgrade the flying ship.
"It seems I have to make a trip to Cloud Sea City to sell the Vortex Map I have." A round trip to Cloud Sea City would take ten days, and right now he really couldnât spare those ten days.
"Better check on the flying ship first."
Wen Ping quickly went underground, entering the Flying Ship Construction House.
Firstly, the sails!
Wen Pingâs gaze fell on the description of the upgraded sails.
Five-leaf Sails, increasing flight speed by twenty percent, with a chance to trigger blitz, further increasing flight speed by fifty percent for a short time.
"These sails are good."
A twenty percent increase in flight speed wasnât just a slight improvement.
Speaking of which, he was really troubled by the flight speed. The Heaven and Earth Lake had a total of 108 lakes, but now it took seven or eight days to just reach Xuanse Lake, let alone traveling to farther places.
In the future, he would definitely have to travel further.
After all, the exploration mission system regularly issued tasks, and if doing a task in the future required flying for half a year for a round trip, it would be a colossal waste of time.
