Chapter 499: Chapter 192: “Only those who fear death deserve to live.” _3
One statue depicted him when he opened his Twelfth Rank Divine Domain, “Three Thousand Thunders Move,” surrounded by countless illusory and real thunder arcs that blossod and faded like flowers, lifelike and vivid.
It was particularly striking.
Another statue showed him sitting cross-legged in a storm, overlooking the Three Springs Building, his expression indifferent and his eyes radiating a cold, rciless aura.
This was the only statue where he was not standing but sitting cross-legged.
Among the other four statues, it appeared particularly unique.
“…”
Chen Qiu circled these two statues before turning his gaze to the remaining seven empty circular bases. There were twelve milestone tasks on the Xuantian Continent, of which he had completed five, leaving seven more.
And when these seven milestone tasks were finished, it would be the day he would leave the Xuantian Continent.
After making the round.
He once again walked to the gates of the Heavenly Palace and tried to push them open, but the gates remained tightly sealed and were not sothing he could open with his current strength. It was as if the world itself had firmly locked the doors of the Heavenly Palace.
Looking through the crack in the door.
Outside the door crack was still a formless void, nothing could be seen.
First Grade Xuantian Continent, Central Heavenly Palace.
After taking a aningful look at this crack, Chen Qiu once again transford into white light and vanished on the spot, reappearing at the ruins of the Three Springs Building. He did not know the specifics of that vast continent.
But one thing he knew.
Either accumulating a hundred billion rit points or reaching the Void Refining Stage in cultivation would allow him to travel to that vast continent.
However, there were individuals at the Void Refining Stage on the Xuantian Continent, and the fact that these Void Refining cultivators had not gone to the vast continent indicated one thing: it was highly probable that traveling to the vast continent was not a good thing at all.
Especially, the words said by the shadow across from the black hole when he refused to go to the vast continent.
“Ant.”
He, as a person, did not actually hold grudges, but he would repay every single one, just as ordinary people would eat every day. He didn’t think it was sothing worth ntioning; it was a normal and necessary thing to do.
…
Three Springs Building, at the ruins.
Chen Qiu looked at the four mid-grade Heavenly Dao Roulettes inside the Heavenly Dao Ring, planning to open them after returning to Dragon Island, then turning his gaze to the Chao Tian Sect mbers who had already gathered, he said with a light smile, “All wrapped up.”
“Not a blade of grass grows!”
Chao Tian Sect’s outer elder Qu Gui, with a respectful expression, stepped forward and reported.
“Good.”
Chen Qiu nodded, “You’ve reached the second layer of the Nascent Soul in cultivation. Keep pushing forward, striving to breakthrough to Divinity Transformation. I have your Divine Domains all prepared for you.”
“Take advantage while it’s still dark—visit the hos of the guests listed in the gift ledger. If you delay, things may change.”
“I’ll lead the way,” Ao Tian raised his hand, “I’m familiar with Central State; I made many detours after being pursued there in the past.”
“Okay.”
Their current strength was not yet sufficient to sweep through Central State recklessly. At least if soone at the Void Refining Stage took action, they would not be able to resist. However, the Void Refining cultivators spent most of their ti in seclusion, and they were very slow to receive external information.
If the Void Refiners did not act and they were not surrounded by a horde of cultivators at the Peak of Divinity Transformation, then basically no one on Central State could stop them.
Especially the combination of Ao Tian and Chen Qiu.
Chen Qiu absolutely suppressed all Divine Domains of Ninth Grade and below. Then, after suppressing the opponent’s Divine Domain, it would be Ao Tian’s turn to act. He would take the lead, while Chen Qiu provided output from behind.
A perfect partnership.
What they needed most right now was ti to develop.
Once the batch of Dragon Cubs from the Dragon Clan ca of age and Chen Qiu’s Nascent Soul produced more offspring, enabling him to activate four Divine Domains at the sa ti, and the disciples of the Chao Tian Sect also needed ti to break through to Divinity Transformation, what they needed most was ti.
So, they would first seize a batch of resources and, after digesting that batch, co out to seize another batch.
Keep repeating the process.
They would thus establish a positive cycle.
A large amount of resources and a great deal of ti were what they needed.
And the first batch of targets was naturally those guests who had co to participate in the “Sha Qiu Banquet.”
…
The first family, completely looted.
The second family, completely looted.
The third family, completely looted.
Soon Chen Qiu’s group, under the cover of night, quickly made their way to each family on the list. As they were all nearby, it did not waste their ti. Those who did not resist were spared their lives, while those filled with resentnt and vengeance were, of course, sent to et their ancestors without further discussion.
Until they reached, the Cao Family.
“…”
Fat Long stood at the entrance to the Cao Family with a slightly odd look on his face. It was deep into the night, and all households were sleeping, except for the Cao Family, which was brightly lit and where the aroma of food drifted through the air. Listening closely, one could also hear the laughter of many children and the sounds of a folk band playing music.
And tied to the chests of the two stone lions outside the Cao Family’s door were large, festive red flowers.
Above them hung two banners.
“Congratulations to Sect Master Chen Qiu of the Chao Tian Sect on surviving the Annihilation Thunder Tribulation and successfully breaking through to Divinity Transformation!”
“The whole family celebrates!”
“What’s going on?” Fat Long glanced around in confusion.
Just then, a middle-aged man with a joyous face stepped out from the door, looking at them, “I am the Cao Family Patriarch, are you gentlen also here to share the joy? You seem a bit unfamiliar, not from this town, right? If you don’t mind … ah, if you don’t mind asking, dozens of brave n.”
“I have long admired the Sect Master Chen Qiu of the Chao Tian Sect!”
“Originally, when I heard that the Three Springs Building held a ‘Sha Qiu Banquet’ during the day, my heart was filled with anger and discontent. How could Sect Master Chen, such a significant figure, be killed by the Three Springs Building? But I also lanted that I could do nothing to help Sect Master Chen.”
