Eternal Life: Hundredfold Rewards

Chapter 588 - 324: The Mantis Tries to Stop a Chariot, Guidance for Gong Yunrou!

At the same time, inside the Dantian, the six-inch Nascent Soul abruptly opened its eyes, Nascent Soul in motion!

Qi Chuan looked indifferently at Xi Chun, his hair fluttering, his magic robe rising without wind, flapping loudly.

A terrifying pressure comparable to a Great True Monarch suddenly spread from his body, making the entire grand hall as cold as a prison.

In the void, a pure mana hand appeared, directly reaching for Xi Chun.

"How is this possible?!"

Staring at the frightening visage of Qi Chuan, Xi Chun’s eyes bulged, his whole body trembling.

Great True Monarch...

He was actually a Great True Monarch!

Bang!

In his extreme fear, with a "bang," his Tier Four Middle Grade Spirit Treasure jade staff in the void was struck and sent flying by a palm, some jade fragments falling out, evidently with many cracks on the jade staff.

Then, the mana hand of Qi Chuan directly squeezed Xi Chun entirely within it.

Grating sounds...

The green light shield around Xi Chun, light circulating, tried to resist the mana hand.

Cracking sounds... Boom!

However, in the next instant, numerous cracks spread across the green light shield, followed by a loud explosion, shattering completely.

Buzz.

Yet Xi Chun’s ancient jade pendant had three defensive opportunities.

After the green light shield directly shattered, a yellow light shield emerged inside, protecting Xi Chun.

Crack... Boom!

But before Xi Chun could show joy, this yellow light shield, in resisting Qi Chuan’s mana hand, was also directly shattered in the next moment.

With the yellow light shield shattered, a red light shield then rose rapidly inside.

Boom!

But this time, the red light shield was even more swiftly crushed, lightly pinched by Qi Chuan’s mana hand, directly shattering.

Then, under Qi Chuan’s gaze, the mana hand lightly scooped down, catching the pale-faced, trembling Xi Chun, whose very soul seemed to flee.

"...Spare me, I am willing to be imprinted with the Divine Soul Seal, to become the senior’s slave..."

Xi Chun’s throat rolled as he spoke with difficulty.

The Divine Soul Seal is a rather unique method.

Once imprinted with this seal in the divine soul, life and death rest on another’s whim.

However, those who can cultivate to the Nascent Soul Realm often have a bit of pride.

The vast majority of cultivators, even if faced with death, are unwilling to be imprinted with a Divine Soul Seal and become someone else’s humble servant.

Hearing Xi Chun’s words, Qi Chuan’s indifferent gaze fell on his face.

Xi Chun’s eyes widened, his pupils showing a hint of joy, thinking Qi Chuan seemed slightly tempted.

Bang!

However, in the next instant, Qi Chuan’s thought moved, and with a slight noise...

The enclosed mana hand slowly relaxed.

Plop!

A mound of decayed flesh, mixed with bone fragments and pieces of a magic robe, dropped to the ground, staining it with scarlet blood.

Qi Chuan waved his hand, and a Qiankun Bag rose from there, propelled toward him, washed clean by a conjured water flow in the void, then fell with a snap on the jade table before him.

Gazing at the Qiankun Bag in front of him, Qi Chuan’s expression remained calm.

From start to finish, he stayed seated in his place.

Without hastily opening the Qiankun Bag, Qi Chuan communicated with Gong Yunrou, informing her that the matter was resolved and that she could return.

Soon, upon hearing the news, Gong Yunrou hurried to the main hall, transforming into a ray of light, landing outside the main hall.

"Fellow Daoist Qi Chuan, have you and Xi Chun finished your discussions?"

Upon her appearance, Gong Yunrou showed a cheerful expression, stepping into the main hall.

Yet in the next moment, a thick bloody scent permeated her nostrils.

Gong Yunrou was startled, her gaze sweeping around, immediately noticing the strange mound of flesh on the ground in the great hall.

On that mound, the fragments of the magic robe Xi Chun previously wore were visible.

Shifting her gaze, she saw the surplus Qiankun Bag in front of Qi Chuan.

And Qi Chuan’s faint expression.

A chill ran through Gong Yunrou’s heart, and she exclaimed in shock, "Fellow Daoist Qi Chuan... you... you killed that Quasi-Great True Monarch Xi Chun?!"

To know, since she left the main hall, not even a quarter of an hour had passed!

Xi Chun, also a Quasi-Great True Monarch, and it’s said that his magical combat power is quite formidable among the same realm.

Yet such a powerful figure was easily slain in the main hall by Qi Chuan, who is also a Quasi-Great True Monarch, within a quarter of an hour?

Qi Chuan’s strength is simply terrifying, isn’t it?

"No choice, it was unreasonable, so I had to take action." Qi Chuan said with a hint of helplessness as he gazed at Gong Yunrou.

"Now, there should be no more repercussions, right?"

Hearing this, Gong Yunrou gently nodded.

Within the Thunderstorm Hall, there was only one Nascent Soul Cultivator.

It was this Quasi-Great True Monarch, Xi Chun.

Although Xi Chun was powerful, it was never heard that Thunderstorm Hall had any good relations with other forces.

Now, Xi Chun is dead, and the remaining Thunderstorm Hall is nothing more than a larger Core Formation influence.

Moreover, while Xi Chun was still alive, Thunderstorm Hall had already made many enemies, and it’s likely that within two days, those former Nascent Soul enemies would come to wipe out Thunderstorm Hall altogether.

So how could there be any repercussions?

Gong Yunrou’s beautiful eyes were tightly fixed on Qi Chuan.

She was just incredibly amazed that Qi Chuan’s strength was actually this formidable!

"Since the matter is resolved, I should also be leaving." Qi Chuan took the Qiankun Bag from the jade table and stood up tall.

"Fellow Daoist Qi Chuan, no rush."

Gong Yunrou quickly said, hastening to the main hall.

When she arrived at the main hall, she saw the mass of flesh that Xi Chun had turned into, and the unpleasant odor made her delicate nose slightly wrinkle.

Immediately, she formed a seal and cast out many Nascent Flames, burning away these remains.

Then using mana, she condensed a stream of water and washed it several times, cleaning it thoroughly.

Finally, she used mana to steam it dry.

Only then did she sit on the jade chair.

Turning her head and seeing Qi Chuan who sat down again, she then took out a few pieces of Tier Four Middle-Upper Grade high tier metal from the Qiankun Bag and handed them to Qi Chuan with a smile, saying, "These were recently mined from that high tier metal vein and haven’t been delivered to the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect yet."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Qi Chuan looked at these high tier metals and nodded slightly.

He stored them in the Qiankun Bag, then took out some Tier Four elixirs and talismans, and handed them to Gong Yunrou.

Seeing these jade bottles and jade boxes filled with elixirs and talismans, Gong Yunrou’s eyes brightened.

Without needing to open them, she already knew the quality of the elixirs and talismans inside were definitely excellent.

Over the years, with these elixirs and talismans, both her cultivation and the overall strength of the Hundred Flowers Sect had improved significantly.

She had long guessed that these elixirs and talismans were all refined by Qi Chuan himself.

Qi Chuan, besides being a terrifyingly powerful Quasi-Great True Monarch, was also a high tier alchemist and talisman maker!

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Qi Chuan, I’ve encountered some issues in cultivation recently. Could I consult you on them..."

Remembering something, Gong Yunrou’s gaze fell on Qi Chuan’s face, asking expectantly.

Indeed, she had recently encountered some difficult-to-resolve issues in cultivation.

Qi Chuan, as an extraordinary Quasi-Great True Monarch, had the qualification to guide and enlighten her.

Only by resolving these confusions could her cultivation improve at a faster pace.

Otherwise, even with the help of elixirs, the effect would be limited.

"Of course, no problem."

Hearing Gong Yunrou’s request, Qi Chuan nodded, agreeing without much hesitation.

Now, Gong Yunrou also counts as helping him.

Moreover, the Hundred Flowers Sect and the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect had a treaty of friendship.

Guiding the other side out of confusion was naturally possible.

Furthermore, now Qi Chuan has already reached a level comparable to a Great True Monarch, and the effect of his guidance might be unexpectedly beneficial for Gong Yunrou.

So next, Qi Chuan stayed in the Hundred Flowers Sect to guide Gong Yunrou.

The issues Gong Yunrou encountered were indeed somewhat troublesome.

It couldn’t be explained clearly in just a few words.

It took a full three days to successfully resolve them.

Afterward, Qi Chuan proposed to take his leave.

He was personally seen off by a rather reluctant Gong Yunrou to the mountain gate of the Hundred Flowers Sect.
