The battle erupted.
Qi Ming only used three punches to instantly kill this martial artist. He directly shattered this hot martial artist with his fists and exploded into a sky full of death black fog.
Next, Qi Ming headed for the third level, the fourth level, the fifth levelâ¦
He encountered expert spirits one after another.
In Qi Mingâs hands, they could not even withstand a few moves before being killed by Qi Ming. He easily cleared the level and did not use any effort.
A day later.
Ding!
âYou have been AFK Farming in the game dungeon of the first 33 levels of the Tower of Death for a day. You have cleared the game dungeon once. You have obtained: Inheritance CrystalâTaiji Heavenly Sword Scripture. 10 million top-grade spirit stones.â
A notification appeared.
Item: Inheritance CrystalâTaiji Heavenly Sword Scripture.
Introduction: An inheritance crystal produced by the game dungeon of the first 33 levels of the Tower of Death. It is suitable for spirit pets who cultivate the Taiji Sword Dao. It can increase the growth and potential of spirit pets.
âNot bad.â
Qi Ming said, âThis Inheritance Crystal can be used to increase Huo Changqingâs grade.â
âHuo Changqing, come out.â
Swish!
A white light flashed in front of him.
Huo Changqing came out of the spirit pet slot.
âMaster.â
Huo Changqing bowed.
Qi Ming said, âThis is the Inheritance CrystalâTaiji Heavenly Sword Scripture. You can use it now.â
âYes.â
Huo Changqing was delighted and quickly accepted the Inheritance CrystalâTaiji Heaven Sword Scripture. It fused into his body and a Taiji pattern appeared, enveloping Huo Changqing.
âGo.â
Swish!
Qi Ming waved his right hand and put Huo Changqing into the spirit pet slot.
âIâll charge 10,000 top-grade spirit stones.â Qi Ming said, âLet the elite spirit pet: Shu Mountainâs Taiji Sword Saint undergo AFK Farming.â
Ding!
âCharging successful.â
âElite Spirit Pet: Shu Mountainâs Taiji Sword Saint will grow under the enhancement of 10 million times. He is fusing with the Inheritance CrystalâTaiji Heavenly Sword Scriptureâ¦â
A notification appeared.
Qi Ming nodded slightly and closed the notification interface.
In the blink of an eye, another day passed.
Ding!
âThe elite spirit pet: Shu Mountainâs Taiji Sword Saint has grown for a day under the enhancement of 10 million times. He has already perfectly fused with the Inheritance CrystalâTaiji Heavenly Sword Scripture, allowing him to further master the Taiji Sword Dao. This allowed his growth and potential to increase further and become a rare spirit pet: Shu Mountainâs Taiji Heavenly Sword Saint. He can at most reach the late-stage Dao Integration realm.â
This time, Huo Changqingâs improvement was huge. He directly skipped a major class and became a rare spirit pet. Therefore, his growth and potential were almost comparable to Black Flame.
âVery good.â
Qi Ming was naturally very satisfied.
âMaster.â
Huo Changqing appeared. He was dressed in a green robe, had a handsome face, and a pair of sharp brows. His hands were holding a very common Shu Mountain sword.
This Shu Mountain sword was no longer the same as before. Under the repeated advancements, the Shu Mountain sword was already Huo Changqingâs intrinsic treasure. Its power was extremely powerful.
âGo and grow under AFK Farming.â Qi Ming said.
Swish!
A white light flashed in front of him.
Huo Changqing entered the second spirit pet slot.
Consuming 10,000 top-grade spirit stones every day allowed Huo Changqing to grow rapidly under the circumstances of 10 million times. His strength and cultivation were almost changing every day.
In the blink of an eye, another seven days passed.
In the courtyard of the Heaven Secrets Manor.
Qi Mingâs cultivation level had already reached the early-stage Leaving Aperture realm. His control over the Heaven Secrets Book, the Heaven Secrets Brush, and the Heaven Secrets Manor had increased by a level.
Qi Ming could already open the second grotto-heaven now.
It was the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven.
Now, Qi Ming planned to enter the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven and take it.
âYoung Master.â
Su Qimenâs expression was a little worried, âAre you really going to open the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven now? The Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven is the second opened grotto-heaven world. The danger inside might be much higher than the Wonder Sectâs grotto-heaven.â
âActivate it.â Qi Ming said.
âYes.â Su Qimen nodded respectfully.
âHidden Armor Grotto-heaven, open!â
Su Qimen stood in front of Qi Ming. He waved his hands and runes immediately appeared. They danced like butterflies and gathered in front of him. Space fluctuated and gradually gathered, turning into a vortex.
Not long after, the entrance to the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven had already appeared.
It was also an oval black vortex about three meters in diameter.
âYoung Master.â
Su Qimen said, âThe entrance to the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven has already been opened.â
Qi Ming nodded and walked towards the oval black vortex in front of him. He instructed, âSu Qimen, Shangguan Wenge, you two guard here. Sect Master of the Eight Gates, follow me into the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven.â
âYes.â
âYes.â
The eight sect masters followed behind Qi Ming.
âLetâs go.â
Qi Ming walked in front and led the eight sect masters into the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven. Their figures disappeared into the oval black vortex.
The scene changed.
Qi Ming and the others had already arrived at the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven.
They had just arrived when the grotto-heaven spirit of the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven, Liu Yi, discovered Qi Ming and the others immediately. Moreover, the experts of the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven also sensed it.
Half a day later, Qi Ming found a foothold in the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven. He used the Heavenly Observation to deduce the history and past of the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven and learned everything about it.
âHidden Armor Grotto-heaven, Nine Palaces of the World.â
Qi Ming opened his eyes. All kinds of information regarding the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven surged into his mind. He had already learned everything about it.
In the Mystic Gate Grotto-heaven, it was divided into eight prefectures and there were eight gates in the world.
In the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven, it was divided into the Nine Continents and there were Nine Palaces.
The nine palaces in the world were: Qian Palace, Kan Palace, Gen Palace, Zhen Palace, Central Palace, Xun Palace, Li Palace, Dui Palace, and Kun Palace.
Qi Ming now needed to find the grotto-heaven spirit, Liu Yi, and the Nine Palace Masters dominating the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven. This way, he could subdue the entire grotto-heaven.
âHeaven Secrets Book.â
Qi Ming waved his right hand, and the Heaven Secrets Book appeared. Light circulated as if the workings of the heavens were evolving. His left hand held the Heaven Secrets Brush and drew a line in the air in front of him.
Crack!
The space cracked.
Qi Mingâs brush moved like a dragon as he wrote the words âLiu Yiâ in the space.
âLiu Yi, show yourself quickly.â Qi Ming shouted.
In front, space shook, spiritual qi gathered, and energy surged.
In the blink of an eye, a figure appeared out of thin air.
âSpirit of the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven, Liu Yi, greets the successor of the Heaven Secrets.â
This was a young man in a black robe. His face was fair and clean, sharp like a blade. His features were clear and he was quite handsome. He bowed to Qi Ming.
He was the spirit of the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven, Liu Yi.
âOkay.â
Qi Ming nodded in satisfaction. He held the Heaven Secrets Book and ordered in a low voice, âSpirit of the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven, Liu Yi. Arenât you going to quickly enter the Heaven Secrets Book?â
âYes.â
Liu Yi glanced at the Heaven Secrets Book in Qi Mingâs hand. He sensed the fluctuation of the Heaven Secrets Book, the aura and energy of the Mystic Gate Grotto-heaven, and the eight Sect Masters beside Qi Ming. Liu Yi did not hesitate for long before immediately entering the Heaven Secrets Book and fusing with it.
âVery good.â
This way, Qi Ming was even more satisfied.
In the Mystic Gate Grotto-heaven, Qi Ming had been plotted against by the Eight Gates Sect Masters and the spirit of the Mystic Gate Grotto-heaven, causing him to be trapped in the village. As for the Spirit of the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven, it was much more obedient and saved Qi Ming a lot of effort.
âLiu Yi.â Qi Ming said, âNext, cooperate with me to subdue the Nine Palace Masters.â
âYes.â
Liu Yiâs voice sounded from the Heaven Secrets Book.
In the blink of an eye, seven days later.
Qi Ming spent a lot of effort. With the help of Liu Yi and the help of the eight sect masters, he subdued the Nine Palace Masters of the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven.
Qi Ming spent a lot of time finding the Nine Palace Masters.
Of course, a battle was naturally unavoidable.
The Nine Palace Masters were all at the late-stage Dao Integration realm. Their strength was not weaker than the Eight Gates Sect Masters. Moreover, they had also cultivated the Hidden Armor technique to the peak of Perfection. In turn, they had evolved the Hidden Armor Nine Palace Formation. Its power was not weaker than the Mystic Gate Village.
Qi Mingâs strength was naturally stronger. Coupled with the help of the Eight Gates Sect Masters and spirit of Mystic Gate Grotto-heaven, as well as the help of Liu Yi, it was easy to deal with the Nine Palace Masters.
Qi Ming used seven days to obtain the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven.
This way, on the second page of the Heaven Secrets Book, the pattern of the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven appeared. Moreover, it was divided into the nine palaces of the world. On them were the names of the Nine Palace Masters.
In other words, Qi Ming could now control the power of both the Mystic Gate Grotto-heaven and the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven.
His strength had increased further.
On the eighth day, Qi Ming led the Eight Gates Sect Masters and the Nine Palace Masters out of the Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven and returned to the Heaven Secrets Manor. Su Qimen and Shangguan Wenge welcomed Qi Mingâs triumphant return.
âThe Hidden Armor Grotto-heaven has been captured too.â Shangguan Wenge sighed with emotion, âHe only used seven days to do it.â
âYoung Master is indeed peerless in the world.â Su Qimen said.
Next, Qi Ming did not have anything important to do.
He basically spent his days on AFK Farming cultivation.
He felt his cultivation rising steadily. Moreover, being immersed in cultivation and comprehending the profundities of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao was a wonderful enjoyment.
In the blink of an eye, twenty years later.
On this day, it was not far from the day of the next legacy competition. There was still about half a month left. Therefore, the entire Heaven Enlightenment Sect became lively again.
In addition, Qi Ming received a message from Yuan Feng and Xiao Fan. A hundred years had passed, and Yuan Feng and Xiao Fanâs cultivation levels had risen to the late-stage Nascent Soul realm.
This time, they would all participate in this legacy competition.
âThe legacy competition.â
Qi Ming pondered for a moment and put down the letter in his hand, âA hundred years have passed so quickly. In other words, Iâm already 142 years old.â
âTime passed so quickly.â
âOn Earth, with my 142-year-old age, Iâm afraid I can shock the entire world, but in the Mystic World, itâs only the beginning.â
âMy current cultivation level is at the early-stage Leaving Aperture realm. My lifespan is almost 4,000 years.â
âWhat?â
Suddenly, with a thought, Qi Ming sensed something and immediately sat cross-legged. He directly circulated the mystic technique Future Sight and combined it with the three Lesser Divine Powers to derive the heavenly mysteries.
Immediately after, the Heaven Secrets Book and the Heaven Secrets Brush appeared.
The power of the Heaven Secrets was applied to Qi Ming.
âThis isâ¦â
Not long after, Qi Ming deduced what he wanted to know, and his eyes revealed a serious expression, âSomething major will happen in this legacy competition!â
âIt seems that I have to make a move again.â
