Chapter 323: Rich Harvest, Battle Power Skyrockets

"Reward: Host obtains Burial Sword Tomb Legacy!"

"Reward Critical Hit: Congratulations to the Host for obtaining Sword Soul +1!"

"Reward: Host's cultivation raised to King Realm Late Stage!"

With the crisp, melodious prompts ringing out continuously, Qin Xuan's panel underwent earth-shaking changes.

His own cultivation soared like a rocket.

Within a hundred breaths, Qin Xuan's entire body shook.

Qi rushed into the clouds, stretching for ten thousand miles.

Breakthrough!

King Realm Late Stage!

Hoo—

Exhaling a breath of turbid air, Qin Xuan opened his eyes, filled with joy. He exclaimed, "The good things on this Long Chen really aren't just a few!"

Now that he had ascended to the King Realm Late Stage, his initial combat power had doubled.

From throwing a punch with 1.5 million Dragon-Elephant Strength, to 8 million now.

It was an explosive surge.

Not to mention, after killing Long Chen, he received a reward that directly upgraded the "Dragon-Elephant Domain-Suppressing Scripture" to Perfection, allowing him to comprehend the Primordial Dragon-Elephant Power!

This one unit of Primordial Dragon-Elephant Power was equivalent to nearly ten units of Dragon-Elephant Strength.

At King Realm Late Stage, a full-power punch now surpassed all his previous trump cards combined!

What a massive increase!

Even Qin Xuan felt the power growth was too fierce, leaving him slightly dazed.

"This is the Sword Soul from the Burial Sword Tomb, obtained from Long Chen. I have already digested the other benefits. If you refine this Sword Soul, you will definitely be able to control the asura sword even further."

Qin Xuan decisively handed the Sword Soul to Leng Li.

Since she was using the asura sword, he should naturally provide her with the best sword-related items first.

The asura sword in Leng Li's hand, upon sensing the blood-colored Sword Soul, hummed excitedly, like a traveler thirsty for days finding a spring in the desert.

"This thing should be beneficial to you too, right?" Leng Li didn't take it immediately.

Qin Xuan shook his head, "Greed leads to indigestion; you just use it."

Leng Li was not indecisive; she took the Sword Soul and began refining it, merging it into the asura sword.

As the asura sword hummed and absorbed the terrifying Sword Intent from the Sword Soul, it overflowed with rich blood-colored light, feeding back into Leng Li.

This caused the cultivation level she had just broken through to due to the celestial god edict to show signs of further advancement.

Luo Xianxian exclaimed with amazement, "That is a Sword Soul, the purest realization of a Sword Cultivator. Such a concentrated Sword Soul is likely the hard-earned insight of a Peak King Realm Sword Cultivator over ten thousand years."

"I really didn't expect Long Chen to have such good things on him!"

"This idiot, if he hadn't been arrogant and gone into seclusion to use this Sword Soul, he could have at least broken through to the Peak King Realm."

"In the end, he was only in the King Realm and dared to come kill Qin Xuan; in the end, all the benefits became Qin Xuan's foundation."

"Long Chen, what a fool!"

Long Chen was already dead without a trace, but that didn't stop Luo Xianxian from whipping the corpse.

Scarlet Thorn, exhausted, staggered and breathed a long sigh of relief.

Fortunately, her worries were unnecessary.

Otherwise, if Long Chen had really hurt Qin Xuan, she would have been hard-pressed to atone, even with ten thousand deaths.

"Rest for a while."

Qin Xuan stepped forward thoughtfully, supporting the swaying Scarlet Thorn, and affectionately fed her a Medicinal Pill for healing. He smiled and said, "This time, you really helped me a lot. If it weren't for you, I don't know where I would have been chased by those pursuers right now."

If Long Chen hadn't been stuck to Scarlet Thorn, how could he have easily found him without effort and killed him?

If Long Chen hadn't died, how could he have obtained such a rich harvest?

Now, he no longer feared the likes of Feng Zhonghe or the Blade Emperor.

He could suppress old monsters of the King Realm!

Of course, he still wasn't enough to contend with the Blood Asura Clan.

The Blade Emperor and Feng Zhonghe were just pawns.

He hadn't yet met the true Prodigies on the imperial ranking.

His current strength was still not safe enough.

"Consume 3 million villain points to upgrade 'Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation' to Peak!"

"Consume 4 million villain points to upgrade 'Exquisite Heart-Burning Art' to Peak!"

Including the 4.5 million villain points provided by Long Chen, his current Villain Point balance reached 8.02 million.

Consuming 7 million villain points to upgrade the two Divine Abilities to Peak would maximize his combat power.

Following the deduction of 7 million villain points, thousands of years of cultivation experience and insights flowed slowly in Qin Xuan's mind.

As a matter of course, Qin Xuan upgraded "Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation" and "Exquisite Heart-Burning Art" to Peak!

【Host】: Qin Xuan

【Villain Point Balance】: 1.02 million

【Cultivation】: King Realm Late Stage

【Physique】: Chaos Hongmeng Body

【Cultivation Techniques & Treasure Techniques】: "True Dragon Precious Technique" (Perfection), "Phoenix Treasure Technique" (Perfection), "Dragon-Elephant Domain-Suppressing Scripture" (Perfection), "Tianhuang True Solution" (Perfection), "Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation" (Peak), "Exquisite Heart-Burning Art" (Peak)...

【Treasure Vault】: Sealed asura sword (Divine Artifact), ancient prison-suppressing tower (Emperor Weapon), heavenly desolation halberd (Emperor Weapon), saint-beating whip (Quasi-Sacred Artifact)...

【Fellow Daoist】: Leng Li

【Pets】: Moo Moo (Earth Dragon), Alchemist Emperor

Looking at the System panel in front of him, Qin Xuan was very satisfied.

After "Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation" was raised to Peak, he could now maintain the immortal Nirvana state for a full fifty breaths.

And with "Exquisite Heart-Burning Art" raised to Peak, he could make his combat power increase fourfold.

When pushed to the limit, his combat power could skyrocket more than eightfold!

Boom, rumble—

Just then, not far away, Leng Li triggered the power of heaven and earth.

In the God Ruins, she broke through again!

Unlike Qin Xuan's natural Breakthrough, even in the God Ruins, Leng Li had to Face the baptism of the Lightning Tribulation.

"You break through with peace of mind; leave the rest to me."

Qin Xuan gave Leng Li a look, then stood up and slowly scanned the restless figures around him.

He had stayed here too long and made such a big commotion.

Naturally, it attracted many passersby and interested parties.

He saw many familiar figures: Young Master Long Xiao, Feng Yao, and the two Dao Children of the Top Three Sects.

Dao Child Leng Shang didn't come, probably afraid of having his spiritual body blasted apart by him again?

"Qin Xuan, you have made me search so hard these days!"

Feng Zhonghe, dressed in white, walked through the air.

His eyes were fixed on Qin Xuan below, filled with joy.

Qin Xuan was slightly surprised and said, "Just you alone?"

Logically speaking, the Blood Asura Clan's kill order had spread.

There should be more people wanting his life right now.

Why was it only Feng Zhonghe?

Even the Blade Emperor of the Blood Asura Clan didn't show up.

Could it be that they were lurking in the dark?

Before Qin Xuan could figure it out, Feng Yao walked out from the crowd.

She lifted her snow-white neck, her fiery red eyelashes fluttering as she looked towards Feng Zhonghe and said in a deep voice, "Feng Zhonghe, the Blood Asura Clan has withdrawn the kill order on Qin Xuan."

"Even the Blade Emperor has retreated. You are still being aggressive at this time; isn't this a bit too bullying? You, a Peak King Realm expert, have the ability to compete for a name on the imperial ranking, yet you are bullying the small by chasing a King Realm cultivator?"

Feng Yao raised her hand, and behind her, the guardians of the Phoenix Clan appeared together, all of them at the Peak King Realm.

She said angrily, "I, Feng Yao, have received favors from Qin Xuan. The Phoenix Clan will not interfere in the grievances between the Blood Asura Clan and Qin Xuan, but if you, Feng Zhonghe, want to kill Qin Xuan today, I, Feng Yao, will be the first to disagree!"

The Blood Asura Clan was hunting him, and Feng Yao dared not interfere for fear of causing a dispute between the two clans.

But Feng Zhonghe, a Peak King Realm expert who hadn't even entered the imperial ranking, what qualifications did he have to be fierce in front of her?

Boom—

Several Peak King Realm experts, along with dozens of King Realm experts, swarmed up and attacked Feng Zhonghe together.

In this battle, the Phoenix Clan was completely fearless.

Even if they lent Feng Zhonghe ten guts, he wouldn't dare to openly kill the real bodies of the Phoenix Clan's King Realm experts.

At most, he could destroy their spiritual bodies.

Being able to repay a favor to Qin Xuan for Young Miss Feng Yao was absolutely worth it!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

High in the sky, Cloud Soft Qi raged, constantly shattering the Pure Phoenix Flame.

The gorgeous firelight fell like a sky full of fireworks, burning everything within a thousand miles to the ground.

Feng Zhonghe fought alone against dozens of King Realm experts of the Phoenix Clan, using his own strength to turn the gap in numbers.

He forcibly suppressed the Phoenix Clan's King Realm experts.

"This guy is worthy of being a Prodigy who was once able to enter the imperial ranking!"

"It is too difficult to find an opponent for him among the same Realm; even with dozens of times the number of people, our Phoenix Clan's King Realm experts cannot suppress him."

Feng Yao looked at Young Master Long Xiao's direction and said, "Lend me ten Peak King Realm experts!"

Young Master Long Xiao crossed his arms arrogantly, "What qualifications do you have to order me around in front of the thirteenth place on the king ranking? Who gave you the courage? The Phoenix Clan?"

What rank was Feng Yao on the king ranking?

Her previous ranking was not as high as his.

Did he have to agree just because Feng Yao wanted to borrow?

Did he, Young Master Long Xiao, not need Face?

Feng Yao frowned and said in a deep voice, "It is Qin Xuan who wants to borrow!"

"He can borrow."

Young Master Long Xiao raised his finger, and the ten guardians who had previously chased Qin Xuan joined the battlefield together, forcing Feng Zhonghe.

With the addition of the ten Peak King Realm experts, Feng Zhonghe gradually became unable to cope.

He gritted his teeth and sneered at Qin Xuan, "Do you think that by using the power of Young Master Long Xiao and Feng Yao to force me back, you can be safe and sound?"

"The Blood Asura Clan only canceled the kill order on you, not abandoned the pursuit of you."

"If you don't die in my hands and are captured alive by the Blood Asura Clan, your end will be thousands of times more miserable than it is now!"

He snorted coldly, used the Cloud Soft Qi to slap out a chasm piled with clouds, isolating the King Realm experts of the Dragon and Phoenix clans, and flashed away from the spot.

"He left."

Qin Xuan glanced at it lightly, with no interest.

Even if he killed Feng Zhonghe, it would only destroy his spiritual body.

It was easy to expose his strength.

Simply let Feng Yao repay the favor.

He walked towards Feng Yao and cupped his hands, "Many thanks to Young Miss Feng Yao for your help."

Feng Yao shook her head, "I can only do this much. As Feng Zhonghe said, the Blood Asura Clan's heart to kill you has not dissipated. I just gave you a short time to catch your breath. When you meet the Blood Asura Clan, even I will be unable to help."

Qin Xuan paused for a moment and slowly looked at Feng Yao, "I want to borrow some treasures that can destroy physical bodies from you."

Killing only spiritual bodies was too weak.

His grievances with Leng Li and the Blood Asura Clan were already irreconcilable.

If the Blood Asura Clan crushed him, he would die without a burial place, and his body would explode.

But if he killed the Blood Asura Clan, without special treasures, wouldn't it be tantamount to scratching an itch?

Feng Yao didn't hesitate to take out three treasures, "These are all the treasures I currently have that can destroy physical bodies. In the Desolate Domain, this item is only produced by the king ranking and imperial ranking. Even the treasures in the hands of those big clans are obtained from those Prodigies. If you need more treasures..."

After speaking, Feng Yao's gaze slowly shifted to Young Master Long Xiao.

Qin Xuan understood and walked over. Young Master Long Xiao's mouth twitched frantically as he also contributed two treasures.

Daoist Gu Jiuyou and Daoist Xu Baijin saw this, shrank their heads, and turned to leave quietly.

"The two of you, since you are here, we can be considered to have made acquaintance through fighting. We haven't even spoken, and you are leaving?"

Two hands were placed on the shoulders of Daoist Gu Jiuyou and Daoist Xu Baijin.

The two Dao Children turned back, and seeing Qin Xuan grinning, they both swallowed hard.

Qin Xuan retracted his hand, weighed the jade talisman in his hand, and said playfully, "I am very curious, what level of damage will a Dao Child who has special Magic Treasures to protect their body suffer in reality when their spiritual body is destroyed and they encounter jade talisman strangulation?"

Threat!

A naked threat.

Daoist Gu Jiuyou was full of anger.

Daoist Xu Baijin's narrowed eyes also revealed a gleam of light at this moment.

The two attacked at the same time, each taking out nine and thirteen jade talismans, and said dissatisfiedly, "This is all the jade talismans we have on us right now!"

"Many thanks to the two for your generosity." Qin Xuan thanked them with a bow, then threw out the ancient prison-suppressing tower, imprisoning the four directions, and said loudly to the countless onlookers around, "Everyone, since you have come here and watched the show, you naturally have to pay some ticket money. Whether it is three or five hundred Immortal Stones, or one or two jade talismans, you have to pay."

Daoist Gu Jiuyou saw this and said in surprise, "Is he planning to rob everyone?"

Daoist Xu Baijin shook his head, "I don't know, even if it is Qin Xuan, if all the King Realm experts here swarm up, he might not be able to resist, right? Not to mention, there are also King Realm experts here."

A Peak King Realm expert soared into the sky, failing to break the imprisonment of the ancient prison-suppressing tower. He looked down at Qin Xuan and said angrily, "Qin Xuan, you are already unable to take care of yourself, and you still have the courage to blackmail us here! Aren't you afraid of causing public anger and being attacked by us all?"

Hum!

As the voice fell, an asura sword light slashed past.

The body of that Peak King Realm expert was torn apart.

Qin Xuan and Leng Li, who had broken through to the Peak King Realm, cooperated perfectly, then crushed a jade talisman and threw it out, erasing the body of that Peak King Realm expert from the God Ruins.

Leng Li landed gracefully beside Qin Xuan, her red eyes filled with coldness, "Either hand over the Immortal Stones and jade talismans, or pay with your lives!"

Qin Xuan gave Luo Xianxian and Scarlet Thorn a look, "Go collect the tickets!"

He dared to be so ostentatious, naturally, he was confident that he could suppress everyone present.

He couldn't destroy everyone's body, but he wasn't afraid of a few hotheads coming out to die, killing the chicken to scare the monkey!

Half an hour later, Leng Li killed nearly ten more people before the tickets were collected clearly.

"A total of 78,200 Immortal Stones, 87 jade talismans, plus the previous 27, and subtracting the 11 used, there are 103 jade talismans now."

Qin Xuan looked at Leng Li and said, "For these 103 Blood Asura Clan members, I will destroy their spiritual bodies, and you choose whose body to destroy."

He handed all the jade talismans to Leng Li.

Just at this moment, in the Desolate Domain of the God Ruins, the earth shook and the mountains swayed, as if the sky were collapsing.

Two 'waterfalls', one purple and one gold, stretching for hundreds of miles, poured down from the sky.

Young Master Long Xiao, Feng Yao, Daoist Gu Jiuyou, and Daoist Xu Baijin saw this, looked up with everyone else, and murmured in unison, "The battle for the king ranking (imperial ranking) has begun!"
