With my nine meridians taken away, I will prove my invincibility with the Demon Seed!

Qin Yi did not participate in Li Zheng's conversation.

He decided in his heart that he would find an opportunity to let his junior apprentice, who had deliberately brought up this topic, feel the majesty of his senior apprentice.

He also understood that Li Zheng had most likely guessed that he was the demon who killed He Zhi.

But I'm not worried at all.

There is still some trust between a senior apprentice and his junior apprentice.

…………

The Starry Sky Palace team proceeded cautiously towards the Spirit Gathering Land.

Fortunately, there was no danger along the way.

It took almost two days to finally reach our destination.

The so-called gathering place of spirits is actually just a very large open space.

The people from Qingyun Pavilion, along with some second- and third-rate forces from the Desolate Heaven Domain and a small number of independent cultivators, had already arrived.

They originally had a total of fifty people, but now there are only twenty-five left.

Half of it is gone!

The leader of Qingyun Pavilion is named Luo Hua, who is at the eighth level of the Tongtian Realm and ranks 398th on the Qingyun Ranking.

Luo Hua, leading several companions, approached the group from the Starry Sky Palace. His expression was grave as he cupped his hands and said, "Brother Feng, Miss Luo, could it be that you too have encountered the demonic madman?"

Feng Yidao nodded and said, "It seems you're the same."

"This time, the demonic madmen entered the Spirit Pool Secret Realm, catching us off guard and causing us heavy casualties."

"Therefore, we plan to wait until the Martial Alliance, the Great River Sword Sect, the Heavenly Extreme Sect, and the Demon Clan's teams arrive here before discussing how to put aside past grievances and join forces to wipe out the demonic villains."

Luo Hua took a deep breath and said, "If that's the case, I will definitely support it!"

At this moment, Qin Yi suddenly spoke up: "Young Master Luo, there's someone in your team I'd like to meet. Could you help introduce us?"

Luo Hua was taken aback. Although he hadn't met Qin Yi before, he recognized him. He asked, "Who is this?"

Qin Yi said, "Let's get closer and talk."

"Alright!" Luo Hua nodded and said, "Young Master Qin, please."

Huo Gang's eyes flickered: "Let's go too!"

Li Zheng said calmly, "Let him show off in front of others, we don't need to try and piggyback on his fame."

Feng Tiexin hummed in agreement: "While it's not shameful to freeload off your brothers, you can't do it all the time."

…………

Qin Yi and Luo Hua walked to the front of this group, which consisted of second- and third-rate forces from the Desolate Heaven Domain, as well as some independent cultivators.

Qin Yi looked at a woman standing in the middle of the line.

He just watched without saying a word.

The woman seemed somewhat flustered and said, "Young Master Qin...is something the matter?"

Qin Yi smiled faintly: "What do you think?"

The woman became even more uneasy, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

"I hope Young Master Qin will enlighten me," the woman said.

Qin Yi looked at her with a faint smile on his face and his eyes gleaming with a sharp light.

The woman, who looked tense and flustered, suddenly unleashed a violent burst of demonic energy. She lunged forward, grabbed a dagger, and stabbed it toward Qin Yi's chest.

"boom!"

Standing next to Qin Yi, Luo Hua threw a punch.

The woman screamed in agony, spitting out blood. Her body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, then crashed to the ground.

Immediately, people rushed over, intending to detain the woman.

But when they rushed to the woman's side, black poisonous blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, and she had already died.

The woman's body was carried to Qin Yi and Luo Hua.

A burst of energy erupted from Luo Hua's fingertips, slicing through the woman's chest.

A black demon heart came into view.

Looking at the demon's heart, Luo Hua's expression was complex. He then turned to face Qin Yi, solemnly cupped his hands in a salute, and said, "Thank you, Young Master Qin, for helping us find the demon in our group!"

Qin Yi smiled faintly and said, "We are all the same, irreconcilable enemies of the demonic path, so Young Master Luo, there is no need for such politeness."

As he spoke, Qin Yi gently lifted Luo Hua's arms as he bowed with clasped hands.

Although Qingyun Pavilion's strength is not as great as the four major human forces in the Desolate Heaven Domain, Qingyun Pavilion is very special and its influence is actually quite large. The Qingyun Ranking was created by Qingyun Pavilion.

The Qingyun Space also belongs to the Qingyun Pavilion.

Qin Yin, who stole Qin Yi's exquisite heart, entered the Qingyun Space last year and has not come out since.

Qin Yi is going to Qingyun Space to settle scores with Qin Yin!

Therefore, it is necessary to get closer to the people of Qingyun Pavilion now, so that it will be easier to find out some information later.

He chatted with Luo Hua for a few words, and then, under the admiring gazes of a group of people, returned to the Starry Sky Palace's group.

"The title 'Sky Eye' is truly well-deserved!"

"No matter how cunning the demon is, he will have nowhere to hide before him!"

"The key point is that he is exceptionally talented, yet polite and approachable..."

"A peerless gentleman—these five words have now become a tangible image in my mind!"

…………

Next, the members of both teams who arrived at the Spirit Gathering Ground sat cross-legged and began cultivating their inner energy.

Not long after.

The people from the Great River Sword Sect have arrived.

Fifty of them came in, and forty-six more remained.

Feng Yidao and Luo Hua, as representatives, exchanged a few words with Zhou Wei, the leader of the Great River Sword Sect.

But it was clearly not a pleasant experience.

When Feng Yidao returned to the team, his expression was not very pleasant.

"How so?" Luo Fang asked.

The others also listened intently.

Feng Yidao snorted coldly and said, "The people from the Great River Sword Sect were lucky not to encounter any demonic villains. They think that since they are now strong and well-equipped, they can cooperate, but they demand that we give them half of the innate energy we obtain in the Spirit Gathering Land!"

Luo Fang's expression also changed, and she said, "This Zhou Wei obviously thinks that we are now seeking their protection. This person is indeed as arrogant and conceited as the rumors say, looking down on everyone."

Huo Yan chimed in, "The Martial Alliance should accept our proposal. As for the Heavenly Extreme Sect, let's not include them. Even if they agree to cooperate, they'll only cause trouble behind the scenes."

"We can also try to contact the demon race," Zhang Hailin said.

Feng Yidao hummed in agreement.

Not long after, the demon army arrived.

The demon army's morale was low...

Their envoy from the Celestial Fox Clan is dead!

Even the human warriors were quite shocked when they learned of this news.

However, Qin Yi remained completely unmoved.

The fox spirit dug up the innate spiritual pool, then faked her death to escape and quietly left the spiritual pool's secret realm.

That fox spirit was too powerful; even though the entrance and exit passage to this Spirit Pool Secret Realm hadn't opened yet, she could leave at any time.

The demon race showed little interest in the cooperation; they neither agreed nor refused.

After all, in Sifang City, although the demon race and the human race interacted relatively frequently, the demon race always maintained a certain level of vigilance when they came into contact with the human race.

People from the Heavenly Extreme Sect and the Martial Alliance arrived from different directions at almost the same time.

The Martial Alliance members also did not encounter the demonic villains; they still had forty-four members remaining.

The members of the Heavenly Pole Sect also did not encounter the evil cultists; they still had forty-one members remaining.

Therefore, the Starry Sky Palace team, along with the team led by the Azure Cloud Pavilion, were relatively unlucky...

Of course... to be precise, the team led by Qingyun Pavilion was really unlucky to run into the demonic villains.

As for the Starry Sky Palace team, it wasn't bad luck, but rather that they were specifically targeted, and the person targeted... most likely was Qin Yi, who possessed the name of the Heavenly Eye.

The Yu siblings from the Martial Alliance have formed a life-or-death bond with Qin Yi, Li Zheng, Huo Gang, and Feng Tiexin.

However, the leader of the Martial Alliance team, named Wu Fei, said he would think about Feng Yidao's suggestion to join forces to wipe out the demonic villains.

As for the Heavenly Pole Sect, needless to say, Song Jin, who was leading the team, even mocked the people from the Starry Sky Palace.

The people of Starry Sky Palace were furious. They had not only fought against the demonic villains, but they had also been ambushed by Song Jin and his men. Otherwise, the casualties of the Starry Sky Palace team would not have been so great.

The people of the Starry Sky Palace felt extremely aggrieved.

It's clear that joining forces to wipe out the evil cultists is not going to work.

These guys haven't suffered any losses in this area, so they don't take it seriously at all.

The forces of the six factions have now all gathered in the same place.

They are waiting for the Primordial Spirit Pool to erupt with primordial energy.

suddenly.

Song Jin, the leader of the Heavenly Extreme Sect, said with a smile, "Gentlemen, it's too boring to just wait here. How about we follow the old rules and have everyone bring out some True Spirit Fruits to gamble?"

In the past, when everyone gathered here, they would take out True Spirit Fruits to gamble while waiting.

As for how to gamble?

Of course, it's a martial arts contest!

Song Jin had just finished speaking.

Among the Tianji Sect's group, a young man rushed to the open space between the six groups. With a whoosh, he raised a long sword, the blade pointing directly at the Starry Sky Palace members.

"Qin Yi, I am Li Hao, ranked 852nd on the Azure Cloud Ranking!"

"And you, Lu Feiyu, who last defeated our Heavenly Extreme Sect's 850th-ranked disciple on the Azure Cloud Ranking!"

"Your ranking is higher than mine!"

"Now, I challenge you!"

"Do you dare to fight?"

These words were spoken.

Li Zheng, Huo Gang, and Feng Tiexin almost burst out laughing.

The Yu siblings from the Martial Alliance were suppressing their laughter, their faces turning red from holding it in.

Qin Yi's expression was solemn. He took a deep breath and said, "Although I was injured in the attack by the demonic villains..."

"but……"

"If you want to fight, I'll fight you to the bitter end!"

He walked forward with an air of formidable apprehension and asked, "How many True Spirit Fruits do you have?"

Li Hao sneered, extremely smug, and said, "I have eight True Spirit Fruits!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and eight True Spirit Fruits flew out.

Qin Yi looked at the eight True Spirit Fruits; if he got his hands on them, they would be worth at least 800,000 Star Points.

So he nodded and said, "Then I'll gladly accept it."

The words fell.

Qin Yi's figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

Before Li Hao could react, he felt a sharp pain in his chest.

"what!"

With a scream, his chest was cleaved open, and his body was thrown back dozens of feet, lying on the ground, convulsing all over.

Qin Yi waved his hand and directly collected the eight True Spirit Fruits.

Then, he looked at the Heavenly Extreme Sect's group and said, "Anyone else want to fight? But let me make this clear: those penniless wretches with fewer than ten True Spirit Fruits aren't qualified to play with me!"
