790: Chapter 789 Returning to the Tai Xuan Holy Land!

Qin Yan seriously suspected whether this Senior Patriarch Liu Qingxuan had some deep-seated hatred against First Prince Jun Wentian.

Otherwise, why would she introduce First Prince Jun Wentian in such detail?

Why would she make First Prince Jun Wentian sound so suspicious?

Patriarch Liu Qingxuan looked at Qin Yan, then lowered her voice and said, "Qin Yan, I indeed do not get along with this First Prince Jun Wentian, but every word I just said is true. Moreover, the bolt of lightning that just blocked my palm print was secretly released by First Prince Jun Wentian."

Hearing this, Qin Yan's eyes narrowed slightly.

He did not press further, but silently engraved Patriarch Liu Qingxuan's words deep into his heart.

After saying this, Patriarch Liu Qingxuan remained silent as well. She had said everything she should say, and even things she shouldn't have. As for the rest, it was up to Qin Yan to think about.

Her goal had already been achieved;

Her layout was complete.

As for Jiang Li, her expression remained indifferent.

The three streaks of light continued to fly toward the outside of the Ruined Battlefield.

Behind them, the grayish-black sky of the Ruined Battlefield gradually receded into the distance.

On the second day, which was June 19th, Qin Yan and his group finally left the Ruined Battlefield.

The grayish-black sky gradually receded behind them.

They crossed the outer regions of the Ruined Battlefield, passed the border of the Guhen Kingdom, and traversed layers upon layers of mountains and rivers.

The path ahead grew wider and more open.

Originally, given Qin Yan and Jiang Li's speed, it would have been impossible to leave so quickly.

The Ruined Battlefield was hundreds of miles away from the border of the Guhen Kingdom. With their Rank 6 Peak flight speed, it would take at least several days to fly out.

During this time, Patriarch Liu Qingxuan's green True Qi acted upon them. The green light clung to their bodies like invisible wings, vastly boosting their speed.

Qin Yan and Jiang Li only felt their bodies lighten as the surrounding scenery flew backward like a rewinding film, their speed incredibly fast.

The journey that originally would have taken several days was completed in only about a day with Patriarch Liu Qingxuan's help.

In the end, Patriarch Liu Qingxuan continued to escort them, only leaving after she had safely escorted Qin Yan and Jiang Li onto the Flying Ship.

Standing below the Flying Ship's gangway, she looked up at Qin Yan and Jiang Li, smiled slightly, and waved.

Then, she turned around, transformed into a streak of green light, and vanished into the horizon.

Qin Yan and Jiang Li stood on the Flying Ship, silently watching the departing Patriarch Liu Qingxuan.

Only at this moment did Qin Yan finally confirm that Patriarch Liu Qingxuan indeed harbored no ill intentions toward them.

Along the way, she had many opportunities to make a move, but she didn't.

She simply escorted them silently and left quietly.

If she wanted to harm them, she wouldn't have gone to such trouble.

Shortly after, Qin Yan and Jiang Li silently returned to their respective rooms inside the Flying Ship.

The two separated at the fork in the corridor and walked toward their own rooms.

Once Qin Yan returned to his room and closed the door, the world instantly fell silent.

He walked to the bedside, sat down, and murmured, "First Prince Jun Wentian, was it you?"

If every word Patriarch Liu Qingxuan said was true, then the one who attacked him that day was very likely First Prince Jun Wentian.

The First Prince of the Guhen Kingdom, the recipient of Venerable Purple Thunder's Legacy, and a powerhouse at Great Grandmaster Peak.

It was him who wanted to kill him.

"Forget it, there's no point in overthinking. I need to improve my strength first. Even if the one who attacked me was First Prince Jun Wentian, so what? With my current strength, I am absolutely no match for him."

Qin Yan suppressed his thoughts, stood up, picked up the Moyuan long spear, and began to train.

He had self-awareness; a Great Grandmaster Peak powerhouse was not someone he could contend with right now.

The only thing he could do now was to increase his strength and achieve a Breakthrough to Grandmaster as soon as possible.

With the long spear in hand, spear shadows layered over one another.

Half a quarter-hour later, the Flying Ship started.

The hull shuddered slightly, and the scenery outside the window began to move slowly.

The Flying Ship's engine emitted a low hum, and the runes on the hull lit up one by one, emitting a faint spiritual glow.

Qin Yan and Jiang Li embarked on their journey back to the Taixuan Holy Land.

Inside the room, the Taibai Sharp Metal Spear Intent emerged on Qin Yan's long spear, exuding an incredibly sharp aura.

The golden Spear Intent condensed on the tip of the spear, like a golden star twinkling in the Void Realm.

His movements were smooth and fluid, executed in one continuous motion; every thrust carried a sharp edge, and every stance was fierce.

A night passed, and the date became June 20th.

The morning sunlight spilled through the window into the room, casting dappled shadows on the floor.

Qin Yan stopped training, put away his long spear, sat on the edge of the bed, and opened his panel to check.

Then, he discovered a scene that shocked him.

"[first grade Taibai Sharp Metal Spear Intent (5%)]"

He had only trained for a single night, yet the proficiency of his Taibai Sharp Metal Spear Intent had increased by four percent!

Going from one percent to five percent took only a single night.

When he first cultivated the Destruction Spear Intent, a full day and night of training would only increase it by about three percent.

The Destruction Spear Intent was a first grade Spear Intent, and the Taibai Sharp Metal Spear Intent was also a first grade Spear Intent.

With the same grade and same difficulty, the cultivation speed differed by nearly threefold.

This left him both surprised and puzzled.

"Could it be because I still have a large amount of Five Elements Profundity in my body, and the combination of the Five Elements Profundity and the Spear Dao Profundity is what makes my progress in cultivating the Taibai Sharp Metal Spear Intent so astonishing?"

Qin Yan thought to himself, a flash of realization crossing his eyes.

The amount of Five Elements Profundity in his body was still slightly greater than his Spear Dao Profundity.

Thirty-one ten-thousandths of Five Elements Profundity, and twenty-eight ten-thousandths of Spear Dao Profundity—the amount of Five Elements Profundity was indeed higher than his Spear Dao Profundity by three ten-thousandths.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt this was the most likely possibility.

The Five Elements Spear Intent itself contained the power of the Five Elements and Spear Intent;

With the boost from his Five Elements Profundity, his cultivation speed for the Five Elements Spear Intent far surpassed other Spear Intents.

This wasn't a matter of talent, but a matter of Profound Truth!

"If I continue at this cultivation pace, I will only need thirteen days to Cultivate one Five Elements Spear Intent to Perfection!"

Thinking of this, Qin Yan couldn't help but feel excited.

Thirteen days to reach Perfection in a first grade Spear Intent—if word of this speed got out, it would scare countless people to death.

Those Heavenly Ladder Clearers would need at least nearly a month to Cultivate a first grade Spear Intent.

Yet he only needed thirteen days.

This Five Elements Profundity, which he had possessed for so long, was finally showing some of its utility!

Previously, the Five Elements Profundity was nothing but a useless burden to him.

The capacity for Profound Truths within his body was limited, and the Five Elements Profundity occupied a large amount of space, preventing him from absorbing more Spear Dao Profundity.

He had once felt troubled by this, thinking the Five Elements Profundity was useless.

Now it seemed that it wasn't that the Five Elements Profundity was useless, but rather that the time to use it had not yet come.

Now, the time had arrived.
