The terrifying energy ripples caused the entire iron ore mine to tremble.

Under the impact of this energy ripple, the tiles on the roofs of the Ironstone Manor outside kept falling off.

The elders from the five major sects who were protecting their disciples also quickly left the pavilion and rushed towards the iron mine.

Feng Zi, who was resting with his eyes closed, noticed the fluctuation and a slight look of doubt appeared between his brows and eyes. Then, his figure disappeared from the spot without leaving any trace.

Some Tianxuan Sect disciples who were resting there suddenly noticed that Elder Fenglu had disappeared without warning. They looked puzzled, but none of them paid much attention to it.

It wasn't until the terrifying fluctuations emanated from underground that people understood why Feng Bi had suddenly left.

Having reached the Earth Profound Realm, Feng Zhi had clearly comprehended the power of the laws. His ethereal figure appeared directly in front of Qin Xin.

Because Qin Xin was relatively close to the fire blade, he was impacted the moment it exploded. Several cracks appeared in his Heavenly Phoenix Armor. Although he activated the Desolate God Battle Body, there were still many charred marks on Qin Xin's body, and he kept spitting out blood, as if he had suffered internal injuries.

Qin Xin was somewhat surprised to see the wind quiver appear.

As Feng Bi gently raised his hand, an invisible gale seemed to rise around him, completely enveloping the flames that had burst forth from Qin Xin's fire blade.

After the strong winds gathered, the originally explosive flames became very gentle and went out directly.

After the flames subsided, Qin Xin was about to fall to the ground, but after Feng Bi gently waved his hand, a force of the five elements lifted him up and slowly lowered him to the ground.

Qin Xin was also somewhat terrified at this moment. The terror of this martial arts fusion had exceeded his expectations. If Feng Zi hadn't arrived, even if he had been able to kill all the disciples of the Xuan Tian Sword Sect, he would have been severely injured.

Although he could temporarily conceal his identity through the mysterious fragments of the map, if a powerful figure from the Xuan Tian Sword Sect were to complete the task, Qin Xin would be unable to escape his fate of death.

However, Qin Xin had no choice but to take the gamble. He knew that some powerful figures from various sects, such as Feng Bi, were here to protect the safety of their disciples, so he created such a terrifying fluctuation to attract their attention.

After Qin Xin landed, the lava passage behind him had completely collapsed, and the surrounding passages were all blocked by rocks.

As for the group from the Xuantian Sword Sect, apart from Gu Beichen, who was slumped on the ground with his eyes filled with terror, all the other disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect were knocked down by the energy ripples from the explosion.

It kept wailing.

Feng Bi didn't care about the lives of these Xuan Tian Sword Sect disciples. He glanced at Qin Xin with a hint of surprise, but didn't say anything.

With a light tap of his fingertip, a golden longsword that had been hurtling through the air was instantly shattered.

"Feng Ji, according to the previous agreement, those at the Yuan Dan realm and above are not allowed to enter this iron ore mine!"

"What do you mean now?!"

After a ripple appeared in the space, Zhang Qin's figure slowly appeared. His green robes fluttered without wind. After glancing at the Xuan Tian Sword Sect disciples lying on the ground around him, a hint of anger appeared on his face.

As soon as Zhang Qin finished speaking, the two elders from the Ziwei Sect and the Qiwu Sect behind him quickly prepared the food.

After sensing the underground disturbance, the two knew that many disciples from the sect were also in the vicinity, so they rushed over.

Fortunately, the explosion stopped abruptly. The disciples of the Ziwei Sect and the Qiwu Sect were only buried by the rock strata and suffered minor injuries. No one died, which put the two of them at ease.

After sensing the presence of Feng Bi and Zhang Qin, the two quickly arrived.

"Didn't the three of you also enter this iron ore mine?"

Feng Jie retorted directly with a question.

Zhang Qin and the elders of the Ziwei Sect and Qiwu Sect behind him were speechless for a moment.

Upon hearing this, the elder of the Qiwu Sect's eyes changed slightly before he stared at Qin Xin behind Feng Bi and said, "The previous fluctuations must have been caused by this kid."

Upon seeing the elder of the Weapon Martial Sect in a gray robe with a slightly flushed face, Qin Xin recognized him.

Previously, upon entering this iron ore mine, Yang Ruoyi and Xiahou Chu had informed Qin Xin that this person was Wang Gu, an elder of the Qiwu Sect who was protecting the safety of the disciples. He was at the ninth level of the Dharma Aspect Realm, just one step away from entering the Earth Profound Realm.

"Wang Gu, you dare to talk to me like that? Have you forgotten how you got beaten up fifty years ago?"

Feng Bi showed no respect to Wang Gu, and his face darkened instantly upon hearing that he was going to be beaten.

Gu Beichen, who had been slumped on the ground, seemed to be transmitting his voice to Zhang Qin, which made Zhang Qin frown and look gloomy.

Feng Bi didn't care about any of that and prepared to leave the iron mine with the injured Qin Xin behind him.

Seeing that the two were about to leave, Gu Beichen suddenly stood up and said, "Elder Feng, please wait. This boy used a sword technique. I suspect that he stole the one that my Xuantian Sword Sect lost before, and I want to verify it."

Feng Bi glanced at Gu Beichen indifferently, but ignored him.

With a swift movement, he and Qin Xin vanished from the iron ore mine.

After being completely ignored, Zhang Qin's face grew even darker.

Regarding the sword technique Qin Xin used, as described by Gu Beichen, he knew it was not from outside the Xuantian Sword Sect, but it seemed to be even more powerful than the sect's three sect-protecting sword techniques, so naturally some other thoughts arose in his mind.

But facing the wind, he had no chance of winning and could only let it go.

As for Qin Xin possessing the item that could conceal his form and the Heavenly Spirit Crystal as tall as a person, Gu Beichen didn't seem to tell Zhang Qin, as if he had other plans.

Seeing the Xuan Tian Sword Sect disciples lying on the ground still groaning in pain, Zhang Qin grew impatient. He flicked his sleeve and muttered under his breath, "Hmph! A bunch of trash!"

Then Zhang Qin's figure disappeared from the spot.

The remaining elders of the Qiwu Sect and Xu Hong, the elder of the Ziwei Sect, exchanged bewildered glances and left the iron mine with their respective disciples.

Now, this iron ore mine has been explored countless times by disciples from various sects, leaving almost no place unexplored.

Even if they stayed here, they couldn't find the Heavenly Spirit Crystal, so they simply led all the disciples of the sect away. After all, if that terrifying explosion happened again and all the disciples of the sect died here, it would be difficult for them to explain when they returned to the sect.

As for the disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect, after the wails gradually subsided, they also left the iron mine. Judging from Zhang Qin's anger when he left, they all knew that they would inevitably suffer some punishment after returning to the sect.

A strange light flashed in Gu Beichen's eyes as he looked at the place where Qin Xin had left, and he murmured to himself.

"He has so many good things on him, and he's a disciple of the Tianxuan Sect, tsk tsk."

"You won't live much longer!"

Gu Beichen seemed to hate Qin Xin.

However, he was still unaware of Qin Xin's identity, and after leaving the iron ore mine, he arranged for someone to go and find out.
