âTake this. If you encounter any danger, use your spirit energy to activate it.â
Qin Jue handed a jade tablet to Zhang Jichen and said.
Qin Jue had already set up a barrier inside this jade tablet. As long as Zhang Jichen activated it with spirit energy, even a Great Sage expert wouldnât be able to break the barrier. Moreover, it could be used more than once.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Jichen actually refused.
âUncle-Master, Iâm going out to train, not to experience life. I fear that I might gradually develop a sense of dependence if I bring this along. If that happened, there would be no meaning to my training.â
Zhang Jichen pushed away the jade tablet and said seriously.
Zhang Jichen was right about this. Many genius disciples of large factions would bring various life-saving methods as trump cards when they went out to train, just in case.
This also caused them to become arrogant, overbearing, and condescending when they encountered enemies. In the end, they would end up offending an existence they shouldnât have provoked and die without a grave.
For example, Wei Longtao had only dared to provoke Qin Jue because he had two Supreme Stage spirit artifacts with him.
In the end, he didnât expect Qin Jue to be so powerful. Not only was he killed on the spot, even his entire clan was annihilated.
It was precisely because of this that Zhang Jichen chose to refuse. He didnât want to rely on others.
Hearing this, Qin Jue was stunned for a moment before he patted Zhang Jichenâs shoulder and smiled. âItâs good that you have such awareness. In that case, be careful.â
âYeah.â
Zhang Jichen nodded solemnly and said firmly.
He was determined to get stronger so that he could surpass Tam when he returned!
âBye.â
Qin Jue waved his hand.
âBye.â
Bai Ye chimed in, his expression still very strange.
âGoodbye, Master, Uncle-Master.â
Zhang Jichen bowed and cupped his fists. His figure soared into the sky and quickly disappeared into the horizon.
âFollow him and keep him safe.â
Qin Jue transmitted his voice.
âYes.â
Upon receiving the order, the incarnation immediately followed Zhang Jichen silently.
Although Zhang Jichen didnât want to be protected, that was his business. How could Qin Jue let him wander off unprotected? What if Ji Chen died outside?
Moreover, with the cultivation of the incarnation, it could completely protect Zhang Jichen without him even knowing.
Moreover, with the cultivation of the incarnation, it could completely protect Zhang Jichen without him realizing.
âJunior Brotherâ¦â
Qin Jue suddenly noticed that Bai Yeâs face was flushed red, and he was panting heavily as if he had some craving.
â???â
âSenior Brother, youâ¦â
Qin Jue was stunned. What was wrong with Bai Ye?
Even if he had a craving for something, that something probably wasnât Qin Jue, right?
âCould it beâ¦â
Could it be caused by the pill?
But wasnât that a healing pill?
As expected, a pill refined by Bai Ye would never work according to their expectation!
No wonder Bai Ye had been feeling uneasy since just now!
âJunior Brother, give me a kiss.â
Without waiting for Qin Jue to figure it out, Bai Ye had already pouted and moved closer. Qin Jue couldnât help but shudder and punched Bai Ye in the face!
Boom!
In an instant, Bai Ye fell to the ground like a meteorite, creating a huge pit with a diameter of 10 meters.
âOuch, it hurts.â
The intense pain finally allowed Bai Ye to regain some of his consciousness, but he quickly became dazed and flew towards Qin Jue once more.
Qin Jue :ââ¦â
Are you kidding me? Just how effective is that pill?
Itâs even making him desire men!
Sighing, Qin Jue raised his finger and tapped the space between Bai Yeâs eyebrows.
Buzz!
With a flash of golden light, Bai Yeâs expression gradually returned to normal, and the flush on his face receded.
After a long while, Bai Ye blinked his eyes and said blankly, âWhat happened just now? Why do I feel incomparable pain all over my body?â
Qin Jue :ââ¦â
âDonât give that healing pill to anyone in the future.â
âWhy?â
Bai Ye was stunned for a moment before he seemed to have thought of something. He frowned and said, âCould it be that that medicinal pill has some strange effect?â
Because Qin Jue had forcefully erased the medicinal effect, Bai Ye had already forgotten what had just happened.
ââ¦â
After hesitating for a while, Qin Jue decided to explain what had happened.
âWhat?â
Bai Ye was shocked. No wonder he felt incomparable pain throughout his body!
âStrange, how could this be?â
Bai Ye took out another medicinal pill and placed it in his palm, puzzled.
âI clearly refined it with healing herbs. Where did it go wrong?â
Qin Jue :ââ¦â
If you were able to find out what was wrong with the pill, then you would not have failed at pill refining for so many years.
âThere must be something wrong. Iâll go back and research.â
As if to resolve the awkwardness, after saying this, Bai Ye directly disappeared from where he stood, as if he was never here.
Qin Jue shrugged his shoulders and also returned to his cliff. In any case, it was Bai Ye who was beaten, not him.
At this moment, the sun was high in the sky, and the sky was clear for thousands of kilometers. Luo Weiwei was sitting cross-legged on the blue stone to cultivate. As for Yun Xi, she hadnât woken up yet.
Qin Jue took a sip of spirit wine and then took out the spirit tablet that Long Zhen had given him and began to read.
âDing Dong!â
âDing Dong!â
âDing Dong!â
Three consecutive notifications rang out. Qin Jue focused his eyes. It was actually Long Zhen who had sent him a message.
Opening the dialog box, Qin Jue noticed that the app looked similar to QQ.
On top of that, Qin Jue noticed that Long Zhen even had his own personal profile picture.
âAre you there, Brother Qin?â
âThe Spirit Clan has been destroyed.â
âDid you do it?â
These three messages were sent a few days ago. Unfortunately, Qin Jue hadnât seen them until now.
Ever since he returned to the Xuanyi Mountain Sect, Qin Jue had basically been isolated from the world. If it werenât for the spirit tablet Long Zhen had given him, he probably wouldnât even know what had happened in the Sacred Land of the Central Continent.
It turned out that a few days ago, the Soul Clan, who had always been on good terms with the Spirit Clan, had discovered that the Spirit Clan had been destroyed.
Apart from the barrier outside, the entire Spirit Clan had been razed to the ground. All their clansmen had died without exception.
When the news spread, the entire world was shocked.
To the Central Continent, this news was like a super bomb that instantly detonated all the cultivators!
The Spirit Clan, one of the Twelve Sacred Clans, had been wiped out without anyone even finding out. This was simply inconceivable!
âThe truth about the Spirit Clan being destroyed. Men will fall silent and women will weep after reading this.â
âVery suspicious indeed. Who is the mastermind behind the destruction of the Spirit Clan?â
âThe Vanishing of the Spirit Clan.â
âNo one understands the Spirit Clan better than me.â
ââ¦â
Looking at the various messy red words on the spirit tablet, Qin Jue didnât know whether to laugh or to cry. The most exaggerated thing was that there were actually people who suspected that the Immortal Sacred Land was behind this and even listed dozens of reasons to support their claim.
It was true that in the entire Central Continent, only the Immortal Sacred Land was capable of accomplishing such a feat.
After all, although the Immortal Sacred Land only had one Great Sage expert, they also had Long Zhenâs incarnation who was not weaker than a Great Sage.
Moreover, it had been many years since Long Zhen had revealed his true body. Some people had already guessed that he had already broken through past the Great Sage Stage and stepped into a higher stage. If that was the case, it would not be impossible for him to destroy the Spirit Clan without anybody finding out.
In addition, Long Zhen had yet to respond to the news. Even the cultivators who didnât believe it at first were starting to become suspicious.
âI did it.â
Qin Jue typed without hiding anything.
If he had known things would turn out like this, he would have told Long Zhen directly.
