121: Qin Shou died in a pile of mud

“Gu...Qing...”

Qin Shou’s cultivation base soared all the way to the Wangzhe Realm Peak, his face contorted in a ferocious grimace, blood gushing from his gums as he desperately resisted the crushing force of the invisible domain.

A domain is an aura that naturally emanates from the interaction between the inner and outer heavens and earth.

The higher the Great Dao cultivated, the stronger the domain.

Gu Qing, having integrated countless cultivation methods, had comprehended the Chaotic Great Dao, Xuanhuang Great Dao, Star Great Dao, Yinyang Great Dao... any one of which, taken individually, would be enough to crush Qin Shou.

Therefore, no matter how Qin Shou struggled, it was merely impotent rage, as he was firmly suppressed by the domain.

Furthermore, Gu Qing had received the blessing of the Super Counter-Armor mechanism, and his realm had also surged to Venerable Realm Triple Layer.

At this moment, Gu Qing was like a god, presiding over a domain, with his arms crossed, coldly observing Qin Shou’s death throes.

The system’s prompts about plundering destiny rang incessantly in his mind.

“Hiss~”

How tragic!

Everyone watched, trembling with fear, feeling a chill run through their bodies.

They had initially only thought Gu Qing was monstrous; now, however, it seemed he was not just monstrous, but terrifyingly so.

A casual flick of his finger could kill a veteran Wangzhe Realm Peak expert.

Simply using his domain, he could suppress Qin Shou to the point of immobility.

Such immense power, it was estimated, even an ordinary Venerable Realm expert might not achieve this level.

Gu Qing possessed such profound strength at such a young age.

Everyone couldn't imagine how Gu Qing cultivated, or how terrifying his true strength was.

Watching Qin Shou’s dying struggles, for some unknown reason, a hint of schadenfreude arose in the hearts of the Qin Family members.

It wasn’t that they were cold-blooded; it was simply that Qin Shou was too arrogant, relying on the backing of his ancestor, he completely disregarded them.

Moreover, this great disaster was entirely provoked by Qin Shou alone.

He had caused the death of countless direct bloodline and direct line bloodline members.

Qin Shou was the sinner of the Qin Family.

The only reason they hadn't killed Qin Shou was because of the ancestor.

Besides, even if they wanted to save him, they couldn't.

Qin Heng was a good example of this.

Ji Ning’s Saint Realm cultivation was not just for show.

Thinking of this, the Qin Family members secretly communicated through spiritual messages, deciding to send word to the Saint Realm ancestor and Divine Fire Realm ancestor who were out.

If they didn't return soon, and Gu Qing, in a fit of rage, annihilated the Qin Family, they would truly die unjustly.

“Pfft!”

“Crack!”

Blood spurted from Qin Shou’s body, his bones were crushed, and his eyes were filled with madness, like a trapped beast.

“Break for me…” Qin Shou roared ferociously, his realm breaking through to the Venerable Realm, unleashing his full power to break through the domain.

Crackle, crackle, the invisible space echoed with the sound of shattering glass, but very quickly, he was suppressed again by Gu Qing’s domain.

He was crushed to his knees, his bones shattered, his body like a pile of mud, allowing Gu Qing to ravage him.

He didn't even have the ability to summon a magic treasure to resist.

“How could this be??? ”

Qin Shou looked at Gu Qing with terrified eyes, as if looking at a monster.

He had initially believed that with his Void Dao Realm, he could defeat Gu Qing, achieve a super-level challenge, turn the tide in a desperate situation, and blaze a trail with sparks and lightning.

He would step on Gu Qing to become a god in battle.

To avenge Sister Xue'er.

To avenge his father.

To avenge the countless clansmen of the Qin Family.

However, the cruel reality plunged him into despair.

Under Gu Qing's domain, he felt like an ant beneath the vast heavens and earth, while Gu Qing was the god who controlled the world.

There was an unbridgeable chasm between them.

Even if he broke through to the Venerable Realm, he was still as weak as an ant.

Forget about turning the tide in a desperate situation, he couldn't even break Gu Qing's domain.

That is to say, if Gu Qing wanted to kill him, he could erase him with a single thought.

The more Qin Shou thought, the more despair he felt, his mind collapsing.

He couldn't accept how Gu Qing was countless times more terrifying than he had imagined.

“Master, save me!!!”

“I told you long ago, you are no match for this child,” Long Di said, exasperated.

Qin Shou had truly become arrogant, using his power to kill countless heavenly pride enemies, yet forgetting his own true nature as a good-for-nothing.

He even dared to block his connection with him.

But this was also good.

Let Gu Qing grind away Qin Shou's arrogance; perhaps this was a good thing for Qin Shou.

It's just... Long Di was furious.

To think that he, an Immortal King existence, although having lost his Immortal King Dao Fruit and only a wisp of a remnant soul and obsession remaining, could only exert Divine Fire Realm strength.

Time and again, he had to clean up Qin Shou's messes, taking action against mere juniors.

It was fortunate no one knew, otherwise, where would his Long Di's face be?

“Master, I know I was wrong, please save me quickly.”

Qin Shou felt the great terror of death, already scared out of his wits, no longer daring to act arrogant.

Deep down, he even desperately wanted to escape, to get far away from Gu Qing.

“Hmph! Open your mind and let this seat control your body,” Long Di snorted coldly.

Power above the Saint Realm was not something Qin Shou could wield.

Gu Qing watched with cold eyes, divine light flowing in his pupils, clearly seeing the conversation between master and disciple.

The moment the gilded dragon ring opened its restriction, before Long Di’s remnant soul could emerge, a black dragon rushed into the dragon ring.

Having waited so long, finally there was an opportunity.

The gilded dragon ring was an immortal artifact, containing a small world within it.

If Long Di didn't activate the formation restriction, the Calamity Black Dragon simply couldn't enter.

“What is this thing…”

The moment Long Di saw the Calamity Black Dragon, he couldn't help but turn pale with horror.

The Calamity Black Dragon exuded an aura of ultimate evil, and with just one more glance, Long Di felt his divine soul being polluted, falling into depravity.

The Calamity Black Dragon was like the source of evil, dragging his divine soul into endless hell.

“No…”

Long Di let out a roar of despair.

Because he knew very well that he had been corroded and cursed by the Calamity Black Dragon.

At this moment, even if he possessed heaven-defying abilities, he was powerless to reverse the situation.

The Calamity Black Dragon was omnipresent.

It was a part of his divine soul, his inner demon.

He was the Calamity Black Dragon, yet the Calamity Black Dragon was not him.

“Master!?”

Qin Shou felt his own power draining away, and his divine sense probed into the dragon ring. The moment he saw the Calamity Black Dragon, his pupils constricted, as if he had seen an unspeakable great terror.

He withdrew his divine sense, his scalp tingling.

Without time to think, he immediately called for help from his clansmen.

“Save me.”

He knew that his Master Long Di was finished.

Now, the only ones who could save him were the Qin Family members.

“...”

The Qin Family members looked at each other, their expressions changing, but not a single person made a move.

How ridiculous.

They were merely in the King Realm and Venerable Realm, how could they save him?

Wouldn't asking them to act be sending them to their deaths?

“Serves him right…”

An elder cursed under his breath.

The others nodded in agreement, looking at Qin Shou with disdain.

Didn't he say he could suppress them with a flick of his hand?

What's with asking them for help now?

Why don't you continue with your calm and composed demeanor?

“You all…” Qin Shou looked at his coldly observing clansmen, his heart filled with hatred.

The great enemy was already at their doorstep, yet they were still fighting amongst themselves.

However, before he could think further, his body was quickly crushed into a pile of mud, his divine soul drifted out, distorting for a moment.

“No…” Qin Shou was terrified, he was dead, he was actually dead.

Gu Qing took his gilded dragon ring and all his magic treasures.

He used his Reincarnation Dao Pupil to inspect his memories, then completely annihilated Qin Shou.

“Innate Dragon Pearl, Eternal Azure Sky Dragon Transformation Scripture, Ten Thousand Swords Return to One Scripture.”

Gu Qing digested Qin Shou's memories for a moment.

The most precious among them was the Innate Dragon Pearl.

This was the dragon pearl of an Innate True Dragon, whose cultivation had reached the Immortal King Realm, possessing infinite wondrous uses.

The Eternal Azure Sky Dragon Transformation Scripture, on the other hand, was a Dao scripture that could be cultivated to the Immortal King Realm, focusing on body cultivation.

The Ten Thousand Swords Return to One Scripture had no specific rank, but it could integrate all swords under heaven into one, making it a supreme sword manual.

It was even more profound and unfathomable than the Xuantian Sword Art.

“Truly bountiful,” Gu Qing exclaimed with emotion.

Immortal King cultivation methods, those were supreme treasures that everyone in the Immortal Realm dreamed of, yet he obtained them so easily.

Killing the protagonist was indeed the correct path.

Every protagonist possessed astonishing fortuitous encounters.

Thinking this, Gu Qing began to search Long Di's memories, recording down all the information about cultivation methods, divine abilities, secret arts, including rare treasures, and extraordinary events of the world.

This old fellow truly lived up to his role as the protagonist's old grandpa; he knew too much.

This instantly elevated Gu Qing to someone with the knowledge of an Immortal King.

This was an immense treasure.

Even for Gu Qing, it was more important than obtaining a few Immortal King cultivation methods.

Furthermore, after the Calamity Black Dragon devoured Long Di, it was already capable of contending with the Divine Fire Realm.

Gu Qing glanced at the Qin Family members.

In for a penny, in for a pound, kill them all.

With a thought from Gu Qing, the Calamity Black Dragon transformed into thousands, silently invading the Purple Mansion Divine Souls of the Qin Family elders.

In an instant, over a hundred people died, leaving not even a trace.

“That…”

The moment he saw the Calamity Black Dragon, Chu Chong’s scalp tingled, and his heart was filled with dread.

Although the Calamity Black Dragon only appeared for an instant, it was in that instant that it completely devoured the Qin Family elders.

That aura of ultimate evil was exactly like the Shi Family’s curse.

What else did Chu Chong not understand?

The curse that struck fear into the Central God Domain was actually Gu Qing’s doing.

Gu Qing wouldn't kill him to silence him, would he?

“You may leave.”

Gu Qing glanced at him and waved his hand.

He figured Chu Chong wouldn't dare to speak nonsense; even if he did, it wouldn't affect him.

Instead, it would add another glorious chapter to his legend.

This was the advantage of having the Star God Temple as a backing.

Even if others knew he possessed supreme secret arts, divine abilities, and astonishing magic treasures, they wouldn't dare to do anything to him.

“Good, good, good!”

Chu Chong had never felt so good about being chased away by his son-in-law as he did at this moment.

He fled rapidly.

“Boom!”

Just as Gu Qing took out the Qin Family's identity jade token, intending to enter the great formation.

A terrifying aura descended, with Chaos Qi permeating the air.

A peerless figure, as if a god who had walked out of ancient chaos.

“Master…”

Gu Qing exclaimed in surprise.

He had never expected Zhi Meng to suddenly descend.
