290: Quasi-Saint, Ancient Immortal Relics

Void Heaven Realm.

Atop a towering Divine Mountain, an earth-shattering change was currently taking place.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The Divine Mountain shook violently, as if it were about to be torn apart by some terrifying force, and cracks began to spread across the mountain's body.

An incredibly majestic aura of life emanated from deep within the Divine Mountain, causing all living beings in the entire Void Heaven Realm to tremble.

It was as if a great medicine was being nurtured and had finally ripened!

Countless passing beings were attracted by this aura and stopped to watch, their eyes filled with awe and greed.

The life essence was simply too alluring!

"This aura... so strong! A top-tier Opportunity has definitely emerged!"

"Looking at the commotion on the Divine Mountain, there might be an ancient treasure hidden inside, perhaps even a legendary emperor medicine!"

"Let's go! We'll head over and take a look; maybe we can get a share of the spoils!"

Many beings could not suppress the greed in their hearts and flew toward the Divine Mountain.

Deep within the heart of the Divine Mountain, inside a natural Immortal Cave, Qin Wushang sat cross-legged.

A faint halo of Sacred Power surrounded his body, and the thick life essence he emitted filled the entire Immortal Cave, continuously overflowing and affecting the outside world.

His expression was calm, his eyes tightly closed, and with every breath, he drew the power of heaven and earth within the Immortal Cave into a frantic convergence.

At this moment, he was refining the very last drop of a brilliant golden liquid!

That was the essence blood gifted to him by the immortal medicine, containing majestic life force and immortal charm.

"Buzz!"

When the last drop of immortal medicine essence blood was completely refined, a deafening roar suddenly erupted from within Qin Wushang's body.

He snapped his eyes open, and the Only True World slowly expanded within him, becoming increasingly brilliant, with faint Sacred Power lingering around it.

"Boom!"

At the same time, bursts of rumbling also came from his dao palace world.

In the center of the dao palace world, a towering tree grew rapidly, nurturing Laws that were constantly evolving.

That was precisely his myriad dao divine tree.

"The Quasi-Saint threshold, I've finally stepped across it."

Qin Wushang slowly exhaled a mouthful of turbid Qi, a satisfied smile playing at the corners of his mouth.

As long as he was given a little time to let the Divine Power in his body completely transform into Sacred Power and allow the Only True World to finish its metamorphosis... he would be able to officially enter the Saint Realm. At that time, his strength would ascend another level.

"Phew!"

Qin Wushang stood up and stretched his limbs, and a thunderous roar echoed from within his body.

A terrifying force of Blood Qi erupted, instantly filling the entire Immortal Cave.

The Immortal Cave could not withstand this force and began to shake violently before directly exploding.

Qin Wushang's figure appeared in the sky.

"It's a person! Not a treasure!"

One being was the first to react, crying out in alarm.

"Someone was actually hiding under the Divine Mountain to Cultivate! Was that majestic aura from just now emitted by him?"

"Who is he? Why does he have such a terrifying aura?"

"I don't know. Looking at his attire, he doesn't seem like a native of the Void Heaven Realm, but rather a Prodigy from the outside world."

The various beings discussed animatedly, their gazes locked onto Qin Wushang with curiosity, awe, and greed.

Just then, a figure leading several young people with powerful auras flew toward Qin Wushang.

At the head was an old man dressed in a tiger-skin coat.

His hair was white and his eyes were cloudy, but he emitted the powerful aura of a God King; he was an old-established God King.

Behind him followed four young men and women, each with a refined aura and eyes filled with arrogance and greed.

"The Grand Elder of the Yunmeng Clan has arrived!"

"Yunmeng Shan is home to famous powerhouses and holds great authority in the Void Heaven Realm. What are they doing?"

Some beings were surprised.

Yunmeng Shan flew to a stop a hundred feet in front of Qin Wushang, his gaze sizing him up from head to toe.

"Dressed like that, Your Excellency must be a Prodigy from elsewhere who entered our Great Desolate Void Heaven Realm, yes? I wonder if Your Excellency obtained some Opportunity beneath this Divine Mountain?"

His tone seemed polite, but the greed in his eyes was unconcealed.

Qin Wushang's expression remained calm as he replied indifferently, "There was no Opportunity."

"No Opportunity?"

Yunmeng Shan frowned, clearly unsatisfied with this answer, and the suspicion in his heart grew deeper.

"You say there was no Opportunity, so there was no Opportunity? Do you think my Yunmeng Clan will believe that?"

"The disturbance on this Divine Mountain was so intense; a great treasure must have emerged. Since you happened to be Cultivating here, how could you have gained nothing?"

"Revered Master! Why waste words on him!"

A yellow-haired youth behind Yunmeng Shan couldn't help but speak up, his eyes full of impatience and greed.

"This kid clearly got an Opportunity and doesn't want to hand it over! Let's join forces and take him down directly. One look into his Storage Ring will tell us everything!"

"An outsider brat, could he really turn the world upside down?"

"Exactly!"

A green-clothed woman beside him chimed in, "The Opportunities in the Void Heaven Realm should belong to us powerful clans. Does an outsider like him even deserve to touch them?"

"If you're smart, hand over the Opportunity quickly. Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite!"

The young Disciples of the Yunmeng Clan were very strong, all having the cultivation of a Half-step God King, and they had robbed many Prodigies who came from the outside.

"Shut up!"

Yunmeng Shan barked, interrupting them.

Although he also wanted to seize the Opportunity, he knew the wisdom of 'careful sailing for ten thousand years.'

Qin Wushang could Cultivate peacefully beneath the Divine Mountain and trigger such a terrifying aura; he was definitely no ordinary person.

If he didn't figure out the man's background and acted rashly, he might very well 'capsize in a gutter.'

He looked at Qin Wushang again, his tone becoming slightly softer.

"Your Excellency's Blood Qi is so terrifying, your strength must be extraordinary. May I ask your great name?"

Qin Wushang swept a cold, indifferent glance over him and slowly spat out three words: "Qin! Wu! Shang!"

"What? You are Qin Wushang?"

Upon hearing this, Yunmeng Shan's face changed instantly.

Qin Wushang!

This name had recently spread throughout the entire Desolate Ancient Great World. A God King Realm swallowing a Saint Realm powerhouse whole, transforming into a ten-thousand-foot pitch-black giant, terrifying black mist corroding all things... he had naturally heard these rumors!

That was a true Prodigy!

"Hmph! You say you're Qin Wushang and we're supposed to believe it? What evidence do you have?"

The yellow-haired youth behind Yunmeng Shan didn't believe the rumors at all and still shouted stubbornly, "I think you're intentionally impersonating him to scare us off!"

"If you can't prove you're Qin Wushang, then hurry up and hand over your Storage Ring!"

"Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite to you!"

"Exactly! An outsider kid dares to impersonate Qin Wushang? Truly doesn't know the height of the heavens or the depth of the earth!"

The green-clothed woman also chimed in, the greed in her eyes not diminishing in the slightest.

"Shut up!"

Yunmeng Shan scolded again.

He looked at Qin Wushang, a stiff smile squeezed onto his face, and his tone became incredibly polite.

"So it is Young Master Qin! I've long heard your great name; please excuse my disrespect! Since the Young Master says there was no Opportunity here, then there certainly was none!"

"We have disturbed the Young Master's quiet Cultivation; we shall take our leave now!"

Having said that, he didn't linger, turning to take his Disciples away.

"Wait."

Qin Wushang's voice rang out indifferently.

Yunmeng Shan's body stiffened abruptly, and he slowly turned around, the smile on his face becoming even stiffer.

"Young Master Qin... is there... anything else?"

The four young men and women behind him also sensed something was wrong, and the arrogance and greed on their faces gradually faded.

A cold smile played at the corners of Qin Wushang's mouth as his indifferent gaze swept over them, and he said slowly, "There was no Opportunity just now, but there is one now."

"An Opportunity?"

Yunmeng Shan was stunned and subconsciously asked, "Young Master Qin... may I ask what Opportunity?"

Qin Wushang looked at them and spoke slowly.

"I have a creation to give you that can grant you immediate Immortal Ascension and eternal immortality!"

"??? Really?"

Upon hearing this, Yunmeng Shan suddenly became interested.

"Naturally."

Qin Wushang nodded, his tone flat.

"Please enter my wine immortal pot for a gathering; inside is your Opportunity for Immortal Ascension."

As his voice fell, a flash of light appeared in his hand, and the ancient wine pot appeared out of thin air, hovering before him.

Seeing this wine immortal pot, Yunmeng Shan's face changed instantly, finally understanding what he meant.

"Young Master Qin must be joking!"

Yunmeng Shan waved his hands hurriedly, his tone carrying panic.

"The Opportunity for Immortal Ascension is too precious; we are of meager fortune and cannot bear it! We won't disturb the Young Master any longer, farewell!"

With that, he didn't dare stay for a second longer, turning to lead his Disciples in a frantic escape, their speed dozens of times faster than when they arrived.

He had burned his essence blood.

"Can you get away?"

Qin Wushang's voice came again, and his figure abruptly appeared across their path, blocking them.

"Young Master Qin... what do you want to do?"

Yunmeng Shan was terrified, asking with a tremble as his body involuntarily backed away.

"Ah!"

Before his words were finished, visions appeared in Qin Wushang's eyes, and two beams of pitch-black Pupil Light suddenly shot out, piercing through Yunmeng Shan's head and leaving a bloody hole.

He was dead!

The wine immortal pot hovering nearby suddenly erupted with light, and a powerful suction force pulled the corpse inside.

"Revered Master!"

Seeing Yunmeng Shan killed, the four young men and women were instantly struck with terror, letting out shrill cries.

"Run!"

The yellow-haired youth reacted the fastest, letting out a roar.

He turned to flee in another direction.

"Since you wanted to rob me, you should be prepared to be killed."

Qin Wushang's voice was bone-chillingly cold.

His eyes opened and closed as beams of pitch-black Pupil Light shot out one after another, mercilessly slaughtering them.

"Quite the gaze-kill... Brother Wushang, you really are getting stronger and stronger!"

Just then, a voice came from behind him.

Qin Wushang turned his head, his gaze narrowing slightly.

A familiar figure entered his sight.

It was Lin Ziyao.

He was somewhat surprised.

This woman had actually managed to find her way here.

"How did you find me?"

Qin Wushang asked.

"I came to look for you!"

Lin Ziyao's eyes lit up, and with a flash of her figure, she was right in front of him, naturally reaching out to hook her arm around his, her whole body leaning into him.

A soft, warm sensation was transmitted through her thin dress.

She even unconsciously rubbed her full chest against his arm, pressing it into an alluring curve.

"Brother Wushang~ are you not happy to see me?"

She tilted her head slightly, blinking at him, her tone carrying its familiar coquettishness and intimacy.

She had actually been waiting here for a long time.

She had previously sensed the energy riot in this place and felt Qin Wushang's aura, guessing he was in seclusion, so she didn't disturb him.

"That's not it!"

Qin Wushang let her hold his arm and shook his head.

"I just didn't expect you to be able to find this place."

"You still say that!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Ziyao's face immediately showed grievance and lingering fear, and she held him even tighter.

"You suddenly ran off, I was scared to death!"

"I was afraid... afraid you'd never be able to change back, afraid I'd never find you again!"

Her voice softened, showing genuine concern.

"It wasn't that I wanted to run."

Qin Wushang was silent for a moment before saying truthfully, "It was the scriptures they were reciting... they made me instinctively feel repulsed and annoyed."

It wasn't just him; at that time, the mass of darkness deep within his Dao Palace had also been unusually restless.

Lin Ziyao looked thoughtful: "That is strange indeed..."

She couldn't figure it out, so she remembered the main business and continued, "Oh right, Brother Wushang! This is the Void Heaven Realm."

"Recently, there have been rumors that ripples of suspected Ancient Immortal Ruins have appeared deep within the Void Heaven Realm, and many Prodigies have rushed over!"

She paused and looked up at him: "There was news that there was a big commotion here as well, so I came to investigate."

"In the end, I followed the traces and caught your scent, so I waited for you here."

Qin Wushang nodded upon hearing this.

He had broken through the world barrier to descend by force; that commotion was indeed large, and it was normal for it to be mistaken for a supreme treasure emerging.

"What are the Ancient Immortal Ruins?"

"I don't know! Anyway, many people have gone. Currently, it's still just rumors; the ruins might not have fully appeared yet, and everyone is just exploring and searching."

Lin Ziyao gently shook his arm while holding it.

"So, there's no rush for the moment. Let them go and scout the way first..."

A faint blush rose on her cheeks, her eyes drifted to the side, and her voice lowered a bit.

"Before going over there... can we, perhaps, do something else first?"

Qin Wushang: "???"

"I want to sit on the lotus."
