80: Nine-turn corpse demon
Qin Feng organized his thoughts and asked, “The reward for first place in the Heaven's Pride Tower is a divine authority fragment.”
“I’ve examined this fragment before, but I don’t know how to use it.”
Upon hearing this, Great Qin King Ying Tian smiled slightly and explained:
“Within the divine authority fragment, some divine power remains. You can immerse your consciousness within it to comprehend.”
“However, this comprehension is not a task for a moment; it requires a long period of time. Do not be greedy for speed.”
“Immerse my consciousness to comprehend?”
Qin Feng murmured, understanding a little.
The Great Qin King nodded, then continued, “That is one point.”
“Secondly, the divine authority fragment needs to be repaired with divine power, but I don’t know much about this part. I’m afraid you’ll have to experiment yourself.”
“Divine authority itself is an item belonging to a god. Although it’s only a fragment, it can only be utilized in your hands. You need to learn more about it yourself.”
Hearing this, Qin Feng nodded slightly.
“Thank you, Great Qin King.”
He thought of the person Lei Zhenghao had guessed was pre-selected during the Heaven's Pride Tower event.
The Great Qin King bringing out the divine authority fragment was clearly prepared for him.
The Great Qin King lightly waved his sleeve and said:
“No need for such formality. Your growth is also a good thing for Great Qin.”
“The Ten Kingdoms outside our borders are eyeing us covetously. Great Qin does not have much time left.”
“Only if you can grow as quickly as possible will Great Qin have a glimmer of hope when the national war begins.”
“National war?”
Qin Feng murmured.
“That’s right, your growth speed has exceeded my expectations. At the time of the national war, you can play a decisive role. Even without reaching Five-turn, Great Qin can continue its national fortune.”
“If you can truly break the limits of a professional in the future and embark on the path of a god, then Great Qin might be able to restore the glorious splendor of the First Emperor’s era.”
A look of longing appeared on the Great Qin King Cangxiu’s aged face.
His ancestor, the First Emperor, once pacified all nations and built the Starry Sky Great Wall to block the extraterrestrial demons. Ten thousand years later, in his generation, they had fallen to such a state. How could he be reconciled?
Qin Feng’s eyes showed determination, and he nodded.
“Bai Su will arrange a residence for you in Tianjing. If you wish, you can stay there.”
“If you need anything, you can contact Bai Su, and he will arrange it.”
The Great Qin King said.
“Many thanks, Great Qin King.”
Qin Feng cupped his hands and bowed slightly.
The White-browed Old Man Bai Su also bowed slightly, then led Qin Feng away from the Imperial Palace.
… … … …
Tianjing, Yunwan Villa Area.
Villa One.
The villa covered an immense area, complete with mountains and water systems, making it a top-tier villa area in Tianjing.
As the two stepped inside, Qin Feng took a deep breath.
An incredibly comfortable sensation instantly flooded his heart. He felt as if his spirit had recovered.
Clearly, there was a spirit recovery formation or a strange stone item here.
Bai Su handed the key to Qin Feng, and at the same time, took out a silver-white disc-shaped item and handed it to Qin Feng, saying:
“This is the Ancient Ruins of Living Beings Key. It is a relic formed after the death of the Lord of Living Beings from ancient times. There might be Ancient grade Beast Tamers remaining inside, which should be useful to you.”
Qin Feng looked at it upon hearing this, and information appeared in his eyes.
[Ancient Ruins of Living Beings Key]
[Introduction: Can be used to enter the ancient relic, Ancient Ruins of Living Beings. Ancient grade Beast Tamers may exist within.]
[Usable Level: Lv1.]
… …
Ancient grade Beast Tamers might exist within?
Qin Feng was slightly surprised in his heart. After thanking him, he accepted the item.
With the Decree of Living Beings skill, the Ancient Ruins of Living Beings would be extremely useful to him.
“Hmm, I shall depart now. If you have any needs…”
“Hmm?”
Bai Su nodded, just about to leave, when he suddenly felt a shock in his heart, his expression changing drastically as he detected an unusual aura.
This was an incredibly strong aura that made him feel a slight fear.
Nine Revolutions Overlord?!
“Who?!”
He suddenly looked up and roared sharply.
His Nine Revolutions aura fully unleashed, an incomparably sharp aura shot straight into the sky, like a fierce blade unsheathed.
Qin Feng’s expression also changed. He too sensed that aura; it was extremely dangerous, far beyond his ability to contend with.
“The aura… that’s right… it’s… him.”
Broken, intermittent words came from the air.
The next second, to Qin Feng’s shocked expression.
A shriveled, emaciated figure slowly walked out of the air in front of him.
This figure was extremely bizarre, its clothes rotten, with only a few pieces clinging to its body.
On the exposed skin, there were large patches of greenish-black corpse spots. Its cheeks were shriveled, and the dark gray bones within were already visible.
In its empty eye sockets, two clumps of green ghostly flames flickered slowly, like a corpse that had been dead for a long time.
An incomparably dense aura of death permeated and filled the entire space.
In Qin Feng’s eyes, specks of golden light appeared.
Insight was directly activated.
… … … …
[Name: Cun Lu.]
[Profession: Corpse Demon.]
[Level: Nine Revolutions Two Hundred Ninety.]
[Combat Power: 7.5 million.]
[Affiliated Country: Koukou Country.]
[… …]
… …
Nine Revolutions Corpse Demon?
Seven and a half million combat power?
Qin Feng’s gaze deepened, and he was horrified in his heart.
… …
Compared to Qin Feng, Bai Su’s horror was even greater.
How could a Nine Revolutions Corpse Demon appear within Great Qin’s borders?
Under a sealed state, it was impossible for the Ten Kingdoms outside the borders to send a Nine Revolutions into Great Qin without Great Qin detecting it.
“Damn it!”
Bai Su’s expression was grave. He had already transmitted the information to the Great Qin King at the first opportunity.
This level of strength was already beyond his ability to contend with.
Even with equivalent combat power, he had no confidence whatsoever of defeating a Corpse Demon.
What’s more, the opponent’s combat power was a million higher than his.
This could already result in a crushing defeat.
“Go!”
Bai Su stared intently at the Corpse Demon opposite him. He made a hand gesture, and a dark space rift appeared before him.
Then, he used force with his palm, intending to push Qin Feng directly into the space rift and teleport him away from this place.
However, he had only just made a move.
The next moment, a dense aura of death instantly surged forth.
Under the shroud of that dense gray aura of death, the space rift instantly disintegrated.
At the same time, Qin Feng felt his body stiffen, completely unable to move.
His magic power, blood, and even his heart began to stop.
Not only him, but even Bai Su was not in a better state at this moment.
As the primary target of the dense death aura’s erosion, his body was even more rigid. The blade qi within him continuously burst forth, attempting to sever the death aura’s control, but it was completely futile.
… …
“Divine… seed…”
The shriveled Corpse Demon spoke again.
The faint green flames in its eye sockets flickered rapidly as it walked towards Qin Feng.
… … … … … … … …
