God-Slaying Blade

Suyun Sect is located in the eastern part of Fengzhou, 1,300 li away from Fengzhou City.

The land of the Wu Dynasty was almost entirely sparsely populated.

Outside the city walls, there is mostly wilderness, with few villages or towns.

Many years ago, there may have been numerous villages. But in this world of martial arts, without sufficient strength, one simply cannot survive for long…

A mad fourth-rank martial artist can easily slaughter an entire village.

A single strange beast can kill the entire population of a town in half a day.

Over time, people flocked to the city, and those without martial arts skills could only serve martial arts clans and become their servants.

Of course, some people are discovered to have exceptional martial arts talent, thus gaining the opportunity to defy fate.

However, this group is extremely small.

After several days of travel, Qin Jue and his group are now less than a hundred miles away from Su Yun Sect.

Seeing that it was already dark, Zhao Qingmeng chuckled and said, "Elders, it's getting dark. Why don't we rest here for the night and continue our journey early tomorrow morning?"

An Tairan looked at Qin Jue and asked, "What does Elder Qin think?"

He Tianxue teased, "Elder An, isn't this a redundant question? Elder Qin would certainly agree with Qingmeng's suggestion."

An Tairan was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "That seems to be true."

Zhao Qingmeng blushed deeply and hurriedly said, "Please don't make fun of me, elders. Although I am Xiao Jue's sister-in-law, Xiao Jue is a person with his own ideas and won't listen to me in everything."

Qin Jue touched his nose and laughed, "Then let's rest."

Everyone stopped and started a fire.

Qin Juejue said to An Tairan, He Tianxue, and Zhao Qingmeng, "Elders, and sister-in-law, please come with me."

"Okay," the three replied.

Qin Jue walked a hundred feet away.

Qin Jue took out a luminous stone and placed it on the ground.

Instantly, the area of ​​about ten feet in radius was illuminated by the Bright Lamp Stone.

"Sit down and let's talk." Qin Jue smiled and plopped down on the ground.

The four sat around a table, and the eyes of the other three were all fixed on Qin Jue with curiosity.

Qin Jue didn't waste any words. With a wave of his hand, nine storage rings scattered on the ground.

The three of them were shocked!

The design of these storage rings is very similar to that of the Suyun Sect!

In his excitement, An Tairan quickly picked up a storage ring and saw that the character "Yun" was branded on the front of the ring!

"Elder Qin... Elder Qin, you've retrieved our storage rings?" An Tairan asked excitedly.

He Tianxue and Zhao Qingmeng also looked at Qin Jue with delighted surprise and anticipation.

Qin Jue laughed and said, "Well, those two thought I had a bright future, so even though I didn't become their disciple, they didn't make things difficult for me. I just casually made a small request, hoping they could return the storage ring from the Su Yun Sect. I didn't expect them to be so generous as to return it to me."

"Haha, as expected of Elder Qin, awesome!" An Tairan excitedly gave Qin Jue a thumbs up.

"Ahem, Elder An, mind your image," He Tianxue coughed lightly to remind him.

Although this is something to be happy about, An Tairan is, after all, an elder of the Suyun Sect at the Grandmaster level. How could he speak so rudely?

An Tairan laughed heartily, "I got carried away with my excitement. I'm not usually like this. But Elder Qin's prowess is beyond question!"

Qin Jue chuckled and said, "You should keep this to yourselves and not make a fuss about it, lest others find out and think that I have a deep relationship with those two, which could cause trouble."

"Understood, understood, I will absolutely not let a fifth person know!" An Tairan quickly replied.

He Tianxue hesitated for a moment before asking, "What about the other people's storage rings?"

Qin Jue smiled and said, "So we need to let the fifth person know. After you each retrieve your own storage rings, take the remaining storage rings back to the sect and hand them over to the sect leader."

Afterwards, the sect leader would have the other six people register the valuables in their storage rings, with the sect providing compensation. This way, they could get their lost items back, be more grateful to the sect, and the secret of these storage rings wouldn't be exposed.

Remember, the subsidies are limited to cultivation resources. Rare special items and personal belongings must be withheld first and returned at a suitable opportunity. Giving them all away would seem too coincidental.

"This method is excellent; Elder Qin's thinking is truly thoughtful!" He Tianxue said with a smile.

"Alright, let's do as Elder Qin says. Then I'll go find my storage ring first," An Tairan said excitedly.

Just as he was about to reach out, Qin Jue said, "Let Elder He and my sister-in-law search first. They are women, and it's not good for their private belongings to be seen by others."

An Tairan looked embarrassed and quickly nodded with a dry laugh, "Yes, I was too hasty. However, there should still be traces of my aura on my storage ring. I can find it even without looking at what's inside."

"This, this is my storage ring."

An Tairan quickly reached out, as fast as snatching chestnuts from a fire, and picked up a storage ring, then chuckled.

Qin Jue raised an eyebrow. Why was An Tairan in such a hurry? Could it be that he was hiding some unspeakable secret in his storage ring?

He Tianxue and Zhao Qingmeng also looked at An Tairan with astonishment.

An Tairan blushed slightly and coughed lightly, saying, "Ahem, you should also look for your own storage rings. Don't look down on me. Who wouldn't be excited to have their storage rings recovered?"

"Sister-in-law, Elder He, you should look for them too," Qin Jue said with a smile.

"good!"

The two responded and began searching for their storage rings.

Soon, both of them found their storage rings, and their faces lit up with smiles.

"Elder Qin, I really have to thank you this time," He Tianxue said gratefully with a smile.

Qin Jue smiled and said, "Elder He, you're too kind."

If it weren't for the Suyun Sect giving him a spot, he might not have entered the Yunshan Secret Realm.

Without entering the secret realm, one cannot obtain the Earth Core Golden Flame or the storage ring in the thatched hut.

On the way back, Qin Jue had already checked the storage ring he had taken out of the futon.

Although there weren't many spirit stones inside, only a little over 200,000, there were a full 300 spirit crystals, as well as a spiritual cultivation method and more than ten kinds of spiritual techniques!

It is no exaggeration to say that the secret realm of Yunshan contains a legacy of spiritual cultivation techniques. However, no one could have imagined that the legacy would be hidden inside a futon.

Of course, spiritual skills and techniques were of little significance to Qin Jue.

But those three hundred spirit crystals made him incredibly wealthy overnight!

One spirit crystal is worth a million spirit stones!

Three hundred pieces, that's three hundred million spirit stones!

With this enormous resource in hand, he could directly reach the Spirit River Realm!

Therefore, he had no reason to return other people's storage rings, but he did not want to keep the storage rings of the people from Suyun Sect.

Moreover, this move would also make Suyun Sect owe him a favor, so it was certainly worth doing.

"Hehe, now that everyone has received their storage rings, let's head over. We can finally get a good night's sleep tonight," An Tairan said with a smile, truly at ease at this moment.

He Tianxue smiled and said, "When you get back, keep a low profile and don't give yourself away."

"Hmm! When I get back, I'll set up a tent, hide inside, and secretly cover my mouth to laugh," An Tairan said with a smile.

He Tianxue looked helpless; she felt that Elder An's behavior today was a bit abnormal...

She was even more curious about what was in An Tairan's storage ring that made him so excited after he got it back.
