202 I've Already Surrendered, Why Are You Still Hitting Me?
There is no use in regretting. If regretting was useful, Qiao Yanqing would never have dared to provoke the Immortal Master Mingchen.
At this moment he fell to the ground in so much pain that he couldn't move, and even had difficulty opening his eyes.
In a daze, Qiao Yanqing mistook Jiang Xin's small body for the Immortal Master Mingchen.
He shuddered, and a chill ran through his heart.
The intuition of a monk is far superior to that of an ordinary person, and sometimes he can even avoid risks in advance based on intuition alone.
Perhaps it was a coincidence that the first time he saw this girl, he was reminded of the Immortal Master Mingchen.
But because this girl's actions reminded him of Mingchen again and again, Qiao Yanqing shuddered with fear.
Could this little girl be Mingchen’s clone?
Seeing that Jiang Xin's fist was about to fall again, Qiao Yanqing couldn't help but ask again: "What is your relationship with Mingchen?"
"It's okay." Jiang Xin said and then punched Qiao Yanqing, causing him to wail in pain.
"Ahhh, I've already given in, why are you still hitting me!"
"The weapon spirit has collapsed, why are you still hitting him?" Jiang Xin asked back.
"How can he, a spirit of an artifact, compare with me?" Qiao Yanqing asked unhappily.
"You are a bad guy, how can you compete with the spirit of the weapon?" Jiang Xin said and then punched him again.
Qiao Yanqing was beaten so hard that he screamed in pain, but he didn't dare to argue anymore.
But he repeatedly mentioned Immortal Mingchen, which made Zhaoshi feel strange: "Immortal Mingchen died a martyr and turned into a seal to separate the spirit and devil worlds. Why do you think she is still alive?"
Qiao Yanqing didn't dare to confront Jiang Xin, but he didn't take Zhao Shi seriously: "At our level, it's not easy to be completely killed. Mingchen's sacrifice is true, but who knows if she left a backup plan for resurrection?"
Having said that, he couldn't help but look at Jiang Xin.
The more he looked, the more he felt that Jiang Xin was related to Immortal Master Mingchen.
The great war between spirits and demons a hundred thousand years ago caused a break in the records of the cultivation world, and much of the history is no longer verifiable.
It is rare to see an old antique that has survived from that time. Wu Xin became interested: "Excuse me, senior, is Mingchen Immortal Venerable really the legendary Mahayana stage?"
Jiang Xin was here, Qiao Yanqing dared not not answer: "It should be."
Chu Linfeng was dissatisfied: "What do you mean by should? Can you be more precise?"
Qiao Yanqing rolled his eyes at him and said, "She is a Fusion Stage warrior who can leapfrog to fight a Tribulation Stage warrior. Do you think I dare to appear in front of her again like this?"
Chu Linfeng understood and spat out a word with disdain: "Coward."
Qiao Yanqing gritted his teeth and wanted to hit him.
Chu Linfeng quickly carried Jiang Xin in front of him and took advantage of her power to stick his head out from behind her.
Qiao Yanqing had no choice but to suppress his anger and put down his fist with gritted teeth.
Wu Xin asked again: "What happened to the great war between spirits and demons a hundred thousand years ago? Why did the demon world invade the Tiancheng spirit world?"
Zhao Shi couldn't help but look towards Jiang Xiao.
Jiang Xiao was listening to Qiao Yanqing's answer ignorantly and attentively, like a well-behaved and studious student.
Qiao Yanqing sneered, "You think highly of me. I was hurt so badly by Mingchen that I had to hide my identity and establish the Qiao family, fake my death and resurrect. Do you think I would know such a secret?"
Zhao Shi felt that this was not right: "The entire Tiancheng Spirit World knew about this war that happened 100,000 years ago, how could it be a secret?"
Since it is a war, the demon world must have something to ask for. Once they break into the Tiancheng spiritual world, they will take action whether it is to plunder resources or for other purposes.
No matter how useless Qiao Yanqing was, he was still a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage. It was impossible for him to be completely unaware of this.
But Qiao Yanqing just knew nothing about it: "When the demon world invaded the Tiancheng Spirit World, the spiritual energy of the Tiancheng Spirit World was already very thin, almost the end of the Dharma era as described in the storybooks. How would I know why the demon world invaded such a spiritual world that would perish sooner or later?"
At this point, he sneered disdainfully, "I don't know why Mingchen would rather sacrifice his own life to save such a hopeless world. But..."
He slowed down his speech halfway through and glanced at the spirit of the weapon.
The weapon spirit's fear of him was deep in its bones. Even if Qiao Yanqing did not continue to step on him, the weapon spirit still maintained the same action as before, with its head buried in the ground and not daring to move.
As the master of the weapon spirit, Qiao Yanqing has absolute control over him. He can even read part of the weapon spirit's memory after re-establishing the connection.
The spirit of the weapon had previously searched the souls of the outside world cultivators who entered here and learned a lot about the outside world.
This knowledge was now passed on to Qiao Yanqing without missing a single word, which surprised Qiao Yanqing a little: "The decline of spiritual energy back then was an irreversible process. Why has the spiritual energy in the cultivation world now recovered to its original state?"
Zhao Shi and his companions looked at each other in bewilderment. They didn't even know that there had been a Dharma Ending Age in the world of cultivation, let alone an answer to Qiao Yanqing's question.
Lin Yan pondered and asked, "The End of the Dharma Era, the death of Immortal Mingchen, and the restoration of spiritual energy, are there any connections between these three?"
Wu Xin tilted his head slightly following the voice: "I have the same idea. If this is true, then the source is to find out why the Dharma Ending Age has occurred."
Everyone's eyes turned to Qiao Yanqing at the same time.
Qiao Yanqing rolled his eyes: "You ask me, who should I ask? Aren't you very powerful? If you have the guts, go find the resurrected Mingchen and ask for an explanation."
He deliberately glanced at Jiang Xin to test the reactions of Lin Yan and the others.
Seeing that these little devils didn't notice his little action, Qiao Yanqing was a little disappointed.
"Little bald donkey, you just said that both Chankong Temple and Tianshui Sect have monks in the Tribulation Crossing Stage. Don't they know what happened back then?"
"The six great immortals were established after the Immortal Master Mingchen died for his faith. There is no record of this in Chankong Temple." Wuxin said.
Lin Yan echoed: "The same goes for the Tianshui Sect."
"It's useless!" Qiao Yanqing cursed in a low voice. He even wanted to ask them the reason.
Seeing that his question yielded no results, Wu Xin changed his approach and asked, "Senior, please tell us what you saw and heard during the great war between spirits and demons."
Qiao Yanqing didn’t want to give them a scientific explanation: “I’m dead, I don’t know.”
Everyone looked disappointed.
At this moment, a weak voice with a crying tone sounded: "He is not dead, he was hiding in the Qiao family at that time."
The spirit of the weapon pulled its head out of the ground and looked at Qiao Yanqing timidly and full of hatred.
Qiao Yanqing glared at him angrily. The weapon spirit shuddered, and its body flashed and quickly hid behind Jiang Xin.
Noticing that he couldn't stop shaking, Jiang Xin turned around and reached out her little hand to touch his head, comforting him: "Don't be afraid, I'll protect you from now on."
The weapon spirit stole a glance at Qiao Yanqing, then quickly looked away when it met his ferocious gaze, and whispered, "I saw Mingchen fighting a mysterious man that year. That man was very strong, and Mingchen was at least in the Mahayana stage at the time, but the other party was not at all inferior."
Zhao Shi's heart skipped a beat, and he looked nervously at Jiang Xiao, who still looked confused: "Is it the Demon Lord who is fighting the Immortal Lord?"
The weapon spirit thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "Probably not. The demons invaded in large numbers after this battle."
After a pause, he added, "I feel that person is more terrifying than the demons."
