"That's how it is!"
"In the Chaos Continent, it was possible to directly advance from the mortal rank ten to the immortal rank a long time ago."
"However, not long after the emergence of the Chaos Empire, the laws of the Chaos Continent seemed to have changed."
"At the tenth rank of the mortal realm, it seems impossible to advance to the immortal realm."
"The people of the Chaos Empire will approach someone at the ninth level of the ninth grade of the mortal realm and bestow upon them a rule talisman, allowing that person to advance to the tenth grade."
"However, those at the tenth rank cannot advance to the immortal rank."
"Furthermore, the other party was able to find out immediately after this person advanced to the tenth rank, and then come to take him away."
"Therefore, apart from the Chaos Empire, there are no immortals on the Chaos Continent."
Qin Xiangzheng felt much more relaxed at this moment, and also developed a great fear of Guo Feng.
Therefore, he quickly explained to Guo Feng in detail, "However, there is an ancient legend that has been passed down in the empire. It is said that in some powerful ancient caves, there are still immortal-level laws that can allow people to break through directly from the tenth rank to the immortal rank."
"And there are eight such cave dwellings known to exist."
"However, these eight cave dwellings are all adrift in the void, making them difficult to locate."
"What Qin Tian obtained this time was the ancient cave of the Guo family ancestor. It is said that there are a vast amount of immortal-level laws and immortal-level barriers inside. Not only can it raise people to the immortal level, but the Third Prince's uncle even believes that he can use the power of the cave to imprison the envoy of the Chaos Empire and prevent him from sending messages back."
Despite the immense suffering, Qin Xiangzheng managed to recount everything he knew in one breath.
"I see."
Guo Feng suddenly realized, and his interest was piqued.
Because this so-called ancestor of the Guo family should be the owner of that statue in Guo Wangcheng.
The statue bears a striking resemblance to his father.
And when he was in great danger, the statue exerted its power and helped him.
Therefore, he felt that the Guo family ancestor had at least some connection with his father.
He then asked, "So what is your plan?"
"It's actually very simple."
Marquis Xiang of Qin sighed, "It was precisely because you were about to send troops to Guo Wang City that you were sure you wouldn't have time to deal with other matters. At that time, I used the excuse that I was plotted against by the Empress to trick Qin Tian into coming back."
"Then……"
He trailed off, unable to continue.
"Then you conspired with the Third Imperial Uncle to imprison me, torture me, and force me to hand over information about the ancient Guo Clan's cave, is that right?"
At that moment, Qin Tian stepped in from outside, his face still flushed.
He looked at Qin Xianghou with a sharp gaze.
It was as if there was an unquenchable volcano inside him, ready to erupt at any moment.
"this……"
Upon seeing Qin Tian, Qin Xiangzheng took a deep breath and said, "That's true."
What benefits did he promise you?
Qin Tian asked coldly.
"He promised me that as long as I captured you, he would help me mediate the conflict with Guo Wangcheng, and after he seized the throne, he would hand over Qin Wangcheng to me, allowing me to be completely autonomous, instead of like now, where there is a person from the capital at every important juncture."
Qin Xiangzheng's voice was somewhat low.
He seemed to still feel a little guilty.
"Oh!"
Qin Tian sneered, "Back then, you used my mother's life to gain the support of the Starry Sky Sect. Now, you want to use my life to gain the support of the Third Imperial Uncle."
His gaze was sharp as he stared at Qin Xiangzheng. "In your eyes, my mother and I are nothing more than your tools, aren't we?"
“I am outnumbered and outmatched. My family has declined for generations. If I don’t take some measures, our Qin family will be completely destroyed.”
Qin Xiangzheng looked helpless. "Qin Tian, I'm sorry to you and your son, but there's nothing I can do. As you know, over tens of thousands of years, countless families have risen and fallen. I don't want our Qin family to be like that."
"But by doing this, you are hastening the decline of your Qin family."
Guo Feng sneered, "However, the Qin family's decline is inevitable, but if you don't want to die, you still have a chance."
"What opportunity?"
Qin Xiangzheng quickly looked at Guo Feng.
He didn't want to die either!
In his view, as long as he was alive, there was still hope.
Guo Feng said, "Let's put aside the opportunity for now and talk about how you plan to capture my senior brother Qin Tian. With his strength, does Zhao Xing intend to take action personally?"
No.
Qin Xiangzheng hurriedly waved his hand, "The Third Imperial Uncle is currently on the verge of a breakthrough. Once he breaks through to the tenth-grade Quasi-Immortal level, the Chaos Envoy will come and take him away. All his plans will fall through."
"Therefore, he will not go all out unless absolutely necessary."
"Moreover, the Empress is keeping a close eye on him at all times. If he leaves the capital, he may easily fall into the Empress's trap."
He then said, "It was two ninth-rank, eighth-level experts under his command who, together with my subordinates, captured Qin Tiansheng within the territory of my Qin King City."
"Two ninth-grade, eighth-level experts?!"
Guo Feng raised an eyebrow.
He is now quite familiar with the Yanyang Empire.
The ninth rank and ninth level are basically occupied by the top-tier powerhouses such as the brothers-in-law of the Three Kingdoms and the leaders of the ten major sects.
The ninth rank and eighth level is the second tier.
That is an extremely powerful existence.
Guo Kang, the Duke of Guo, was at the eighth level of the ninth rank. The reason he dared to rebel was because he was the strongest among the five dukes.
The weakest of the other four dukes is the seventh level of the ninth rank.
And each of the ninth-grade, eighth-level experts is not a top expert from one of the ten major sects like Qin Tian.
They are among the top powers in the empire.
