Chapter 621 621 Too Handsome!! (3rd update)
Xuantian Immortal!
Xuantian Great Grandmaster!
In the days that followed, as Chen Qing went to slay mutated monsters with the sword Qin Heng had bestowed upon him, and with accounts from the seriously injured Grandmaster of Transcendence, Master Liu, these two appellations gradually spread throughout Longxi Province.
Several villages that had been saved even began carving statues of "The Xuantian Immortal," treating him like a deity that shocked the world, building temples and burning incense to worship him!
The spread of this prestige was naturally noted by many martial artists, and it couldn't escape the notice of the spies the Boundless Vajra Sect had planted in the Mortal World.
The news of Qin Xuantian's arrival in Longxi Province spread like wildfire.
It caused an enormous upheaval in the underworld of Longxi Province. Many martial artists were terrified at the mere mention of his name, some even considering whether they should leave Longxi Province to avoid the trouble.
After all, Qin Xuantian's fearsome reputation was simply too overwhelming!
His accomplishments were still fresh in everyone's minds: he had single-handedly destroyed twenty Semi-Saints in Yu State and killed a Semi-Saint from the Heaven List—the Son of the King of Shang—with a single palm strike!
Most martial artists dreaded the thought of encountering such a fearsome and mighty figure.
After all, to the vast majority of martial artists, Qin Heng's strength was enough to crush them effortlessly. No one wanted to court death, so naturally, it was best to steer clear of him.
However, no one knew Qin Heng's true whereabouts.
The Ye family of Xijing City was, after all, one of the eight great families of Longxi Province. Superficially, they had no connection with Qin Heng. Even if someone investigated his whereabouts, they wouldn't immediately suspect such a prominent family.
In fact, even if they investigated the Ye family now, they wouldn't find Qin Heng.
This was because after staying with the Ye family for five days and teaching Ye Jiajia some basic martial arts, Qin Heng had left Xijing with Wang Jiuyin and headed for Golden Mountain, located outside Luoshang City.
That was the location of the Boundless Vajra Sect's sect headquarters.
Previously, Qin Heng had extracted a wisp of Buddha's rhyme from the mutated Wang Botong—an aura of power precisely from the Boundless Vajra Sect.
A Buddha's rhyme combined with the Demonic Qi of the Parasitic Soul Clan!
This meant someone from the Boundless Vajra Sect had collaborated with that lower-class demon from the Parasitic Soul Clan.
Colluding with Nine Nether Evil Demons!
In Qin Heng's previous life, whether in the Immortal Realm or the Mortal World, this was an unpardonable sin. It was a crime for which the only atonement was the complete obliteration of one's soul and spirit!
After all, the danger posed by the Nine Nether realm was immense!!
Throughout the myriad worlds and the boundless universe, most civilizations and worlds were hostile to the Nine Nether realm; many had suffered its invasions!
This held true even though cultivation techniques from the Buddha Gate had aspects that complemented the Nine Nether realm!
However, Qin Heng's visit to the Boundless Vajra Sect was not for slaying demons and exorcising evil; he had no such inclination at the moment.
Rather, his purpose was to harvest the Nine Nether Evil Qi from that member of the Parasitic Soul Clan.
Nine Nether Evil Qi!
To the vast majority of cultivators, this was poison!
But for Qin Heng, it was a Spiritual Medicine capable of prying open Earth's Transcendent Laws, causing them to awaken further and accelerate the resurgence of Spiritual Energy!
The faster Spiritual Energy returned, the clearer the Laws would become. The many divine mysteries dormant on Earth would reappear, and comprehending the Supreme Law would naturally become far easier!
Golden Mountain.
Stretching over a hundred kilometers!
Layered peaks rose one after another, steep and majestic, with many areas inaccessible to ordinary people.
Deep within the mist-shrouded depths lay a mystical location—unseen, unreachable, and unknown to ordinary people. Golden light shone brilliantly! Chants resonated endlessly! Buddha's rhyme subtly pervaded the air! This was precisely the sect headquarters of the Boundless Vajra Sect.
Legend had it that thirty thousand years ago, a Deity of the Buddha Gate taught the Dharma here for three hundred years, enlightening all sentient beings.
Three hundred years later, a Buddha Knife that had served him gained sentience and transformed into a human. After the Deity departed, this being founded the Boundless Vajra Sect on this very spot.
Initially, the Boundless Vajra Sect was not particularly distinguished throughout the Divine Province, as its founding Grandmaster was merely a Deity's Buddha Knife, whose cultivation peaked at the Saint King Realm's apex.
Compared to many of the lineages passed down from ancient Immortal Gods, it naturally fell far short.
However, tens of thousands of years had passed. The ancient Immortal God lineages still remaining in the Mortal World had become exceedingly rare, so the status of the Boundless Vajra Sect naturally rose.
The current Sect Master even adopted the title "Buddha Knife," was ranked sixth on the Heaven List, and his might awed the world!
Now, the Boundless Vajra Sect, even when compared to the Ancient Divine Sects, was not considered weak.
The sect headquarters of the Boundless Vajra Sect were deep within Golden Mountain.
The remaining areas, however, were not desolate mountains but had been developed into tourist attractions. This development was unrelated to the Boundless Vajra Sect, being purely a commercial venture by people from the secular world.
After all, Golden Mountain's scenery was captivating. Paths had existed on the mountain since ancient times, and with some renovation, they could be opened to tourists—a business opportunity no one would naturally overlook.
At this moment, Qin Heng was on a cable car traveling from the base of Golden Mountain to its summit, Sun Gazing Peak.
Sun Gazing Peak, the highest summit on Golden Mountain's periphery, was reputed to be one of China's most magnificent spots for watching the sunrise. It was extremely popular with tourists and highly acclaimed.
Of course, Qin Heng wasn't going up to watch the sunrise.
Instead, he intended to harness a wisp of the sunrise's Purple Qi to cast a spell and directly breach the Boundless Vajra Sect's Mountain Protection Array. This would prevent any complications when he reached the gate of the Boundless Vajra Sect.
However, Qin Heng was not alone in the cable car.
It was a four-person car.
Besides Qin Heng, there were three others: two young women and one young man.
They all looked to be around seventeen or eighteen years old, out for leisure.
The two young women sat opposite Qin Heng. Both were quite pretty, with delicate features and light makeup, rating about a seven or eight out of ten in looks.
Their styles, however, differed.
One girl, with long hair falling to her waist and dressed in traditional-style attire, exuded an air of fresh elegance. The other, her hair tied in a ponytail, wore cropped jeans and a white short-sleeved shirt, radiating a vibrant, spirited energy.
Brimming with youthfulness, both possessed good figures, their young bodies full of vitality.
The young man sat next to Qin Heng. He was ordinary-looking but wore expensive designer clothes and a Rolex watch on his wrist worth over a hundred thousand.
He's definitely a rich second-generation heir!
He was looking at his phone, but his gaze swept over the two girls opposite him from time to time, as if he were scheming something.
"Little brother, may I ask for your WeChat ID?"
Just then, a sweet voice, soft and mellow like a marshmallow and soothing to the soul, suddenly filled the cable car.
The young man next to Qin Heng instantly perked up. Hurrying to lift his head, he saw it was the pretty girl in the traditional-style attire who had spoken. He quickly nodded and said, "Sure, my WeChat ID is..."
"Hey!" The girl with the ponytail suddenly waved her hand, interrupting him. She smiled apologetically and said, "Sorry, Su Su wasn't asking you just now; she was asking the handsome little brother next to you."
As she spoke, she pointed at Qin Heng.
The young man froze instantly, his body stiffening. His face turned ashen, and his hands trembled slightly. Looking closely at the girl in the traditional-style attire, he realized she truly wasn't looking at him!
Why?!
In that instant, fury surged within him, and he glared at Qin Heng with eyes full of venomous resentment.
Only to see—
"Alright." Qin Heng smiled faintly and told the girl, "My WeChat ID is q***L."
"Ah! Little brother, you're so handsome! You're even more handsome when you smile!!" The girl in the traditional-style attire sounded extremely excited, her eyes practically shining, and her pretty face flushed red. "My name is Ai Su Su," she said, "I... I just thought you were so handsome that I couldn't resist asking for your WeChat," she chuckled.
BOOM!
The young man felt his heart was about to explode with rage!
Dammit! Is being handsome all it takes?! Can good looks put food on the table? Just because I'm not handsome enough, I get ignored?!
