Chapter 919 - 903: This Is Only the Beginning! (Double-Length Chapter) (2)
"If that's the case, this matter might just be beginning." Qin Heng's perception returned to reality, his brows slightly furrowed.
In the Female Emperor's memory, the might of the Buddha Holy Emperor was extremely terrifying; with a flick of a finger, he could destroy galaxies. In her eyes, he was an incredibly powerful being, perhaps already at the pinnacle of the Saint Emperor level.
Even if he hadn't reached that level, he's probably not far from it, and his strength must be extraordinarily formidable.
A strong being like this, when encountering a bottleneck, will undoubtedly spare no effort to break through, sweeping away any obstacles, and killing anyone in his way!
The Central Ancestral Qi exists only among the people of Earth, and even then, only a portion with an adequate initial concentration can strengthen this Ancestral Qi as they grow stronger.
Thus, the Buddha Holy Emperor will certainly not let Earth go, even if he can't come himself now, there are still the eight Fairies. The previous Female Emperor was just one among the middle-ranked of the nine Fairies, and among the remaining eight Fairies, there are two Deities!
"The aura of the Central Ancestral Qi…" Qin Heng pondered slightly. In the Female Emperor's divine soul memory, there were characteristics of the Central Ancestral Qi that could be used for identification.
So, he spread his Divine Sense, covering Qin Yun, while also extending it outward, touching the auras on Song Ningran, Xue Qinan, Shi Yiguang, Nie Rongrong, and others.
Without exception, they all had a significant concentration of Central Ancestral Qi!
Actually, this isn't surprising. The higher the concentration of Central Ancestral Qi in the bloodline, the stronger one's aptitude. All of these people have quite high aptitude, which can even be described as top-notch, so having a high concentration of Central Ancestral Qi is normal.
But this also means they are very dangerous, and at any moment, Fairies from the Buddha Gate could descend to abduct them. If they reach the Buddhist Realm, unless Qin Heng gives up the chance to comprehend the Supreme Law and forcefully break through, there would be nothing he could do.
With his current Foundation Establishment peak cultivation, he couldn't possibly be a match for Saint Emperor level powerhouses, who are similar to the immortal emperor, equivalent to ancient Saints of the Returning to Empty period. The gap is just too vast!
There is absolutely no comparison.
The distance between Foundation Establishment peak and Returning to Empty period is too far, and not even the Chaotic Clock can bridge this gap. After all, although this treasure was refined by Qin Heng, with his current cultivation, he cannot harness its complete power.
He can only warn Qin Yun and others to stay safe, and give them the warning Jade Talisman, which would shatter as soon as they encounter danger, or if attacked with impossible defense, the Jade Talisman would also automatically break.
This way, at the moment of counterattack, Qin Heng would immediately take notice, equivalent to being alerted, and he could travel through the Spirit Realm to reach them as fast as possible.
…
At this moment, the world was in complete silence.
Within and outside of Lou Lan City, the sparrows were unheard of, and the people who had been kneeling on the ground to salute the Female Emperor all looked dazedly at the sky, disbelief etched onto their faces.
The Female Emperor was dead!
In their eyes, the moment Qin Heng snapped the Female Emperor's neck, everything ended. As for the subsequent soul search and the events that took place in the sea of consciousness, they were completely unaware.
The supreme Female Emperor died just like that; it was as if she were an insignificant ant, crushed right before them, without a shred of dignity.
Many felt disillusioned, some even uncertain whether the experiences of the past two months were real or a dream.
Qin Heng glanced at the people below without paying attention to them; arranging these people could be left to the Myth Organization, as they are the official representatives and more experienced in handling such matters.
"Brother! Are you alright?"
"Immortal Venerable! Your strength is truly incredible!"
Qin Yun and Ji Nanxiang approached Qin Heng, full of amazement and tremendous joy, extremely exhilarated.
They had originally been somewhat worried that Qin Heng, during the soul search, might be schemed against by the Female Emperor. After all, she was a Saint King-level powerhouse, her divine soul power must have been formidable, but now it seems their worries were unfounded.
Qin Heng's strength far exceeded their expectations, immeasurable, unfathomable!
"Let's go, back to Purple Gold Mountain for now." Qin Heng beckoned to the two and said, "Ran Ran and the others are also quite worried about you, and the matter with the Female Emperor isn't over yet; some things require the cooperation of the Myth Organization."
"Mhm, mhm."
"Yes, Immortal Venerable!"
Qin Yun and Ji Nanxiang nodded, preparing to follow Qin Heng back to Purple Gold Mountain.
"Wait a minute." Suddenly, Qin Yun seemed to realize something and looked at Qin Heng, saying, "Brother, could you go to London for a moment? I have a friend facing a crisis there."
She was referring to Eiliana, the leader of the English Knights of the Round Table organization, codenamed King Arthur, the girl wielding the Saint Sword of the Stars. Months ago, she had already been reaching out to her, precisely, her brother Qin Heng for help.
"London?" Qin Heng's mind stirred, instantly connecting all the previous matters together. He said to Qin Yun, "Are you talking about that girl codenamed King Arthur? I remember her name is Eiliana?"
"Mhm, mhm!" Qin Yun nodded, a bit surprised, and said, "Brother, you know her too?"
"I suppose you could say that. She still owes me something." Qin Heng recalled the previous agreement with Eiliana; now the agreed time was almost due, and it had yet to be fulfilled.
——Eiliana had promised to have the British Museum transfer all its antiquities to Qin Heng, with a maximum period of six months, and now it had been over four months.
"Then let's go to London." Qin Yun breathed a sigh of relief, pointing westward, "As long as you're there, brother, you'll definitely be able to help her resolve any crisis!"
"Eiliana isn't even a Great Saint, given that she's been holding on for two months, her opponent likely isn't very strong." Qin Heng plucked a hair from his head, lightly shook it to transform it into a pitch-black, ancient sword, and handed it to Qin Yun, saying:
"With this sword in hand, you can cut down anyone below the Saint King level. Let Ji Nanxiang take you to London; I have important matters to attend to back at Purple Gold Mountain, needing discussion with the Myth Organization."
"This sword…" Qin Yun accepted the sword and immediately felt as though she possessed incredibly terrifying power, as if with a mere swing, she could annihilate everything within ten thousand miles. Such power she had never experienced before, "Oh my god! So powerful, incredibly powerful. Brother, this, is this sword just made from your hair!? Incredible!!"
Qin Yun gazed at Qin Heng with admiration in her eyes. The power contained within this sword was so great that merely holding it felt like having the force to destroy heavens and earth!
Ji Nanxiang, too, was filled with shock. Although Qin Heng's previously displayed strength was already immensely powerful, seeing the power of a hair-turned sword left her trembling in amazement!
Those below the Saint King, all can be cut!
This included those who traversed the third heavenly ladder, the Nine Heavens Great Saints, within the Half-Step Saint King range. Qin Yun, merely an Innate Grandmaster, wielding the sword, could cut down a Half-Step Saint King!
It's too outrageous!!
"This sword can take any form you wish, and transform into accessories for easy concealment and carrying." Qin Heng further instructed, saying, "While this sword is quite powerful, its usage is limited. After nine uses, this sword will be annihilated."
"Ah?" Qin Yun expressed concern, "What if the sword is exhausted before the matter is resolved?"
"Don't worry." Qin Heng patted Qin Yun's hair, smiling as he said, "The moment the sword is annihilated is when I will be by your side. The matters you can't resolve will naturally be handled by me."
"Wonderful!" Qin Yun transformed the sword into a bracelet and hugged Qin Heng, cheering, completely relieved of her burden.
…
Qin Yun and Ji Nanxiang went to London, while Qin Heng hurried back to Purple Gold Mountain.
But he found it had become deserted. Xue Qinan and Song Ningran had both vanished, even Qi Jia, a regular person, was nowhere to be seen. Under normal circumstances, she would not venture out into danger.
What happened!?
