"Little Tantai, have you prepared your dowry?" Qin Sheng asked with a half-smile.
"We'll talk about it after you become the first to enter the realm of life and death."
Tantai Mingyue glanced at Qin Sheng and said coldly.
"Then just wait and see."
Qin Sheng curled his lip, looking confident of victory.
As early as when he was studying the Overlord Blade Technique, he comprehended the Way of Death through the third move, Sunrise.
Now, all that's needed is to comprehend the Way of Life. And then to verify the two together, and one can step into the realm of life and death.
The Garden of Life and Death in the Secret Realm of Life and Death is undoubtedly the best place to comprehend the profound meaning of life.
As time passed, more and more people arrived at the bronze gate. These included not only geniuses from the True Spirit Continent, but also those from the seas near the True Spirit Continent.
The largest group, numbering over forty, came from the True Spirit Continent, while fewer, though still numbering twenty, came from the near-shore and deep-sea areas.
The total number of people exceeded sixty, and one or two would arrive every now and then.
As dusk fell, the ancient bronze gate suddenly opened, and the sound from antiquity sent a shiver down everyone's spine.
"The gate between life and death has opened; let's go in."
Qin Sheng casually stored the Silver Moon into his internal magic treasure space, then took out the Ruyi Hundred Treasure Pouch and looked at Xiahou Zun, "The Life and Death Manual will randomly teleport you inside. My Ruyi Hundred Treasure Pouch can hold people, so you can come with us. Once inside, the probability of obtaining the Life and Death Stone will be greater."
“Alright.” Xiahou Zun did not refuse. Although his cultivation had reached the high level of the half-step king realm thanks to the massive amount of top-grade spirit stones provided by the Void Gate, he was not at an advantage in terms of either strength or cultivation level.
At this crucial moment of vying for the opportunity to advance to the Life and Death Realm, one should naturally not act like a timid, submissive girl.
Upon entering the secret realm of life and death, Qin Sheng did not rush to release Xiahou Zun. Instead, he directly led him through the outer perimeter of the realm, across the Bridge of Life and Death, and into the inner perimeter, where he released his soul power.
Instantly, images of everything within a radius of ten thousand miles appeared in his eyes.
Among them were two malevolent spirits, one dead and one alive.
Unfortunately, after the hunt, not a single life-or-death stone was found.
But it doesn't matter, Qin Sheng firmly believes that as long as enough people are killed.
Then you will naturally have enough Life and Death Stones to acquire.
He then unleashed a frenzied massacre within the inner perimeter.
About a month later, he had hunted down four or five hundred deadly spirits and obtained a total of thirty life-and-death stones.
Qin Sheng then released Xiahou Zun.
Xiahou Zun stared in disbelief at what he was seeing, seemingly unable to believe it was real. Qin Sheng had actually reached the point where he could sweep away all life and death secrets, killing life and death evil spirits as easily as slaughtering pigs and sheep.
"Alright, ten Life and Death Stones for each person should be more than enough to raise them to the peak of the third level of the Life and Death Profound Realm."
Qin Sheng gave ten pieces to Xiahou Zun.
So he sent him off to establish a secluded cave and go into seclusion.
Yinyue also tried absorbing the Life and Death Stone, which had an incredible effect on her as well.
And so the three of them began their seclusion.
A month later, Qin Sheng was the first to emerge from seclusion, raising his cultivation to the peak of the third level of the Life and Death Realm. Yin Yue followed suit shortly after.
Xiahou Zun lacked the necessary strength and inner strength.
They are still refining the Life and Death Stone to this day.
Qin Sheng didn't wait for him. Giving him the Life and Death Realm was already a favor because they were fellow disciples. If he still couldn't protect himself after refining ten Life and Death Stones, then he would deserve to be killed and sent the Life and Death Manual.
The Secret Realm of Life and Death will exist for more than three months in total.
With more than a month to go, Qin Sheng decided to test his martial arts skills while heading towards the core area of the Life and Death Manual. By sheer coincidence, he encountered Liu Wujian, who had already reached the second level of the Life and Death Pass and was challenging a top-tier ferocious spirit.
Just as he was about to be killed, Qin Sheng used the high-level spatial profound sword technique Crescent Moon as a guide, and with one strike, he annihilated the top-level evil spirit.
Looking at the direction from which the blade energy originated, Liu Wujian was amazed by Qin Sheng's strength, but couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I never expected that the person who saved me would be you?"
He had heard of the other party's name during the time Qin Sheng was in seclusion.
At first, he thought Qin Sheng was afraid to accept the challenge and was unworthy of the title. Even after losing to Ye Chen, he still thought that Qin Sheng was like that.
Only now did he realize that the other party wasn't refusing to fight, but rather that they had long since looked down on the petty squabbles at the Spirit Sea Realm level.
"You're just too arrogant. Do you really think that having a little strength is enough to run rampant in the Secret Realm of Life and Death? You're still far from it."
Qin Sheng glanced at Liu Wujian indifferently, raised his hand and drew out a Life and Death Token, which was the pass to enter the Hall of Life and Death to participate in the Life and Death Realm Candidate Ranking Competition.
The top ten will receive the Life and Death Stone as a reward.
That's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that you can enter the Garden of Life and Death.
To comprehend the profound meaning.
When Qin Sheng arrived at the plaza in front of the Hall of Life and Death with Yin Yue and Liu Wujian, a large crowd had already gathered there.
Among them, the True Spirit Continent has geniuses such as Bai Wuxue, Lu Shaoyou, Xiao Chuhe, Dugu Jue, Tantai Mingyue, Chu Zhongtian, Yan Fengfeng, and Luo Tiandu who entered the Life and Death Realm Candidate List in the previous session.
Xiahou Zun also arrived, having arrived before Qin Sheng because Qin Sheng had been testing his own martial arts along the way. Although his cultivation had not yet reached the peak of the third level of the Life and Death Realm, it had already reached the third level of the Life and Death Realm.
He nodded to Qin Sheng when he saw him arrive.
At the same time, others also noticed Qin Sheng, seeing that his cultivation level was the same as Luo Tiandu of the True Spirit Continent, Xiang Shao of the Blood Heaven Continent, and Xing Jianhou of the Heavenly Sword Continent, reaching the peak of the third level of the Life and Death Profound Gate.
Everyone wore a solemn expression.
Not long after, the gates of the Hall of Life and Death opened, and a Life and Death Token was required to enter.
Each token can be used by five people.
In front of everyone, Qin Sheng took out the Life and Death Token and brought Tantai Mingyue, Liu Wujian, Xiahou Zun, and Yinyue inside.
As for the others, top-tier evil spirits will be teleported over soon, and they will have no choice but to hunt them down together.
Even the most powerful evil spirits are only equivalent to the peak of the third level of the human life-and-death barrier, and they will not die as long as the life-and-death token inside their bodies is not removed.
With the combined attack of numerous geniuses, the top-tier ferocious spirits that had been teleported over were quickly killed.
They were then teleported into the Hall of Life and Death.
Everyone entered a secret chamber that was over a kilometer long, wide, and high.
In the very center of the secret chamber stands a stone tablet, which lists the top thirty-six candidates from the previous Life and Death Realm Candidate List.
Then another stone fell from the sky.
Everyone knew about the Secret Realm of Life and Death, and knew that the stone tablet was used to record the names of those who entered this place.
Initially, the rankings are based on the life force. After the competition ends, the rankings will be based on the wins and losses. Finally, after the competition ends, there will be a list of candidates for the Life and Death Realm.
Qin Sheng's spiritual body is at the fifth level, his cultivation is at the peak of the third level of the Life and Death Realm, and he is also a cultivator in the Void Refining stage, so his life force is naturally the highest.
Even Ye Chen's girlfriend, Xu Jing, whose true form is a golden dragon, couldn't surpass him.
As for Yin Yue, since she doesn't belong to this world's cultivation system, she can't leave her name, so she participates in the competition. However, because of Qin Sheng, the Hall of Life and Death didn't exclude her.
Before long, the competition for the reserve list of life and death began.
The group was teleported to various rooms.
Qin Sheng was the first to step onto the stage, and his appearance attracted considerable attention. His opponent was none other than Xiang Shao, a member of the Blood Heaven Continent who had completed his ancestral reversion and awakened the ancient war elephant bloodline. Although arrogant, Xiang Shao was still cautious, unleashing a high-level Heaven-rank secret technique right from the start: the Eight Desolate Fierce Elephant Fist.
With a single punch, space shattered, and countless cracks spread out, covering Qin Sheng.
Qin Sheng remained expressionless.
Clang!
The sword is drawn.
Another slash was delivered.
Using the Xuanbing Dragon Elephant as a guide, nine enormous ice dragons burst forth from the sky in an instant. The onlookers only saw a blur before the entire space was frozen solid.
Xiang Shao is no exception.
He was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture, the ice sculpture shattered, and Xiang Shao also turned into ice crystals.
The whole audience was stunned.
To kill Xiang Shao, the number one expert of the Blood Heaven Continent, with a single strike? What a joke!
Next, neither Star Sword Marquis nor Snow Sword Marquis, nor Dugu Bo and the others could dodge Qin Sheng's blade.
Even Tantai Mingyue, who had already comprehended the advanced spatial mysteries of movement techniques, was no exception.
At that moment, everyone present suddenly felt a strange emotion.
I feel fortunate to be born in this era, but at the same time, I feel it is also a tragedy.
Fortunately, we were able to witness such a brilliant genius. Sadly, no matter how hard they tried to catch up, they could never reach him.
With the final two rounds, Xu Jing and Ye Chen faced off against Qin Sheng.
After a series of defeats, the match finally came to an end.
Ultimately, it was Xu Jing who forced out his Path of Death, while Ye Chen forced out his Blade Domain.
As for the profound martial arts of space, no one ever forced it out.
Before long, the Garden of Life and Death began.
While others were busy trying to understand profound mysteries, Qin Sheng was contemplating the way of life.
As the day passed, Qin Sheng gained a corresponding understanding of the way of life.
Two days later, Qin Sheng had gained a preliminary understanding of the way of life.
Three days passed, then four days passed.
Seventh, on the last day of the opening of the Secret Realm of Life and Death, Qin Sheng finally comprehended the Way of Life and verified it with the Way of Death.
At this moment, the Secret Realm of Life and Death finally came to a close, and everyone was teleported out one after another.
True Spirit Continent.
Wild mountain range.
The people from the True Spirit Continent and the overseas people who entered the Secret Realm of Life and Death from this place were just about to leave and return to their secluded cultivation to break through to the Realm of Life and Death.
Suddenly, lightning struck down from the sky.
Everyone stared at Qin Sheng in astonishment, their eyes filled with shock.
They knew Qin Sheng was only one step away from the Life and Death Realm, but they didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
They were about to enter the life-or-death situation so easily.
Seeing this, Tantai Mingyue gave a bitter smile. She knew that she was doomed to lose the bet with the other party.
Although everyone present longed to witness the life-or-death tribulation up close, they also knew that the more talented someone was, the more terrifying the tribulation would be. Therefore, they had no choice but to leave, traveling tens of thousands of miles away to observe from afar.
Before long, wave after wave of tribulation lightning descended. Qin Sheng easily resolved them all, and when he finally experienced the tribulation of the primordial spirit, he even attracted several primordial spirit killing kings.
Although Qin Sheng encountered various difficulties, he managed to get through them successfully.
He officially entered the realm of life and death.
At the moment he entered the realm of life and death, his soul power surged.
Ten thousand li, twenty thousand li, one hundred thousand li, one million li.
Without using any secret techniques, his soul power was a hundred times stronger than that of an ordinary Life and Death Realm King, and one can imagine how powerful it was.
His true essence cultivation level also reached two hundred years, directly breaking the record of the True Spirit World.
After breaking through, Qin Sheng did not rush to leave, but sat down cross-legged on the spot and entered a state of harmony with nature.
Quickly enter a state of harmony between man and nature.
However, the outside world was filled with colorful lights.
He first comprehended the profound mysteries of ice and wind, achieving complete mastery. Next, with a few improvements, Qin Sheng can elevate the Mystic Ice Dragon Soaring technique to a top-tier profound martial art.
Then the Dark Arts and the Thunder Arts were also perfected.
Finally, there is the profound meaning of space.
He directly went from comprehending 60% to 90%.
When he opened his eyes again, the Void Emperor was already standing in front of him.
Qin Sheng had already noticed this, and the Void Emperor did not disturb him, but instead continued to protect him.
Seeing Qin Sheng advance to the Life and Death Realm so quickly, the Void Emperor showed a satisfied expression. "Good, very good. Now my Void Sect has its fourth Life and Death Realm King. Let me test your current combat strength."
As he spoke, he reached into his storage bag and tossed a top-grade treasured sword to Qin Sheng.
Qin Sheng took the top-grade treasured sword, instantly imprinted his soul mark on it, and then unleashed a slash using the Xuanbing Dragon Soaring technique. The terrifying dragon roar resounded throughout the entire Wilderness Mountain Range.
"Well done." The Void Emperor was both surprised and delighted. He unleashed the Unparalleled Golden Sun Palm, a strike that sent a thousand-foot-long ice dragon colliding with a thousand-foot-long fiery palm. The space within a radius of ten thousand miles collapsed and shattered, creating countless spatial storms.
Qin Sheng stood motionless, but the Void Emperor did take three steps back, looking at him with a shocked expression: "Seventh-tier Dark Blade Intent, Five-star Overlord Combat Power."
After the initial shock came excitement, followed by bursts of laughter. Qin Sheng had only just entered the Life and Death Realm and already possessed such strength, which further solidified the Void Sect's position as the number one sect in the world.
Qin Sheng nodded inwardly. After advancing to the Life and Death Realm, his Dark Blade Intent directly entered the seventh level.
He will be able to put his existing profound mysteries into practice.
Reaching six-star combat power is a piece of cake.
"Haha, Qin Sheng, no, I should call you Junior Brother Qin now. Come on, I'll take you to see someone." The Void Emperor laughed, turned around, broke through space, and disappeared into the void.
Qin Sheng then followed suit, breaking through the space and entering as well.
Under the guidance of the Void Emperor, Qin Sheng brought the Void Gate, a forbidden area of the Void Gate.
They met the Void Ancestor, who had lived in seclusion and whose combat power had reached the peak of the six-star level.
After a meeting, with the consent of the Void Ancestor, the Void Emperor handed over the Void Invincible Battle Technique, a combat secret technique that could increase combat power by 50%, to Qin Sheng.
They also sent invitations to various forces on the True Spirit Continent to celebrate the Void Gate gaining another Life and Death Realm King.
Qin Sheng ignored those things.
He just kept going into seclusion to improve his strength.
He only made one public appearance during that period, on the day of the celebration banquet. After that, he went into seclusion again.
He only emerged from seclusion a year later, when he realized his strength could not improve any further in the short term. (End of Chapter)
