After the Spirit Infusion Cultivation ended, the final spots for the Nine Domains Martial Arts Tournament were determined.
Each sect will determine its final quota of disciples to participate in the Nine Domains Martial Arts Tournament by adding the quotas directly invited to the quotas obtained during the trials in this secret realm.
The Nine Domains Martial Arts Tournament is related to the entire Tianxuan Continent, and can be said to be a very important competition.
After the competition ends, each domain will determine its assigned territory to guard in the outer battlefield based on its ranking.
Moreover, each region with a lower ranking needs to send several powerful individuals into the outer battlefield to fight for the lives of the Tianxuan Continent.
Of course, Qin Xin was unaware of all of this.
For him, improving his strength and completing his revenge were the top priorities; everything else was temporarily put aside.
Even dealing with his relationship with Luo Lingyan was something Qin Xin decided to address after taking revenge.
As various forces withdrew from the Cloud Martial Hall, Qin Xin observed some undercurrents between them.
Everyone knows that once they leave the Cloud Martial Hall, a fierce conflict is bound to break out.
All parties were aware of this situation, so when Longmu and Yaru left, the Grand Elder of the Eastern Wilderness Academy was already waiting outside.
Qin Xin also asked the two little guys to give greetings to the old friends in the academy, and the two little guys didn't forget to ask for money.
Qin Xin also gave the two little ones some pills.
Then he watched the two leave.
As for the people of Tianxuan Sect, they are not worried. With Bai Ruixi and Xie Huang protecting them, it would be difficult for ordinary forces to take them down. Even Xuantian Sword Sect would have to think twice.
However, Qin Haotian, the leader of the Xuantian Sword Sect, left the Cloud Martial Hall early on, so the safety of Qin Xin and the others was naturally guaranteed.
As disciples of the Tianxuan Sect, although they are not as powerful as they were in earlier years, they are still a force to be reckoned with. If these people dare to attack them, it would mean declaring war on the entire Tianxuan Sect.
Currently, in the entire Yunxi Domain, apart from the Xuantian Sword Sect, no other force dares to treat the Tianxuan Sect in this way.
Just as Qin Xin was about to leave with the others, an aged voice slowly flowed out.
"Please wait, everyone from the Heavenly Profound Sect!"
Qin Xin and the others from the Tianxuan Sect were all surprised by the old man's sudden voice.
Because after each trial in the Cloud Martial Hall, the old man's figure would disappear and only reappear when the hall opened again.
But this time, not only did he not disappear, he even directly asked to keep the people from the Tianxuan Sect.
For a moment, even Bai Ruixi, who possessed the strength of the perfect Dharma Aspect Realm, was somewhat unsettled.
The old man from the Cloud Martial Hall possesses unfathomable strength; if one were to attack him, it's likely no one would be able to escape.
However, Qin Xin felt no worry at all.
Because he could sense that the old man in front of him did not have any ill intentions towards them.
After all, if he wanted to make a move, he wouldn't have suddenly told them to stop.
"I'd like to have a brief chat with this young friend. I wonder if that's a convenient time for you?"
The old man who was originally sitting on the stone pillar appeared before them in a blur, and pointed at Qin Xin.
When the old man pointed at him, a slight glint flashed in Qin Xin's eyes.
Some unpleasant thoughts also began to arise in my mind.
Qin Xin knew that he had too many secrets. Whether it was the mysterious map fragment or the spirit-devouring stone, if any one of them were to be revealed to outsiders, he would probably be reduced to ashes.
As Qin Xin pondered, he realized that the aura around him had been completely shielded.
The old man seemed to completely disregard whether Qin Xin agreed or not, and simply sealed off the area around him.
Although those around could see what was happening, they couldn't hear the conversation between the two.
"Your name is Qin Xin. You must be a descendant of the Qin clan," the old man said gently, looking Qin Xin up and down. "The Qin clan hasn't come for a long time."
"Although I sensed a Qin clan youth with decent strength before, his Qin clan bloodline was too weak."
"I remember last time there was someone named Qin Xiao, whose Qin clan bloodline power was just as strong as yours!"
The old man narrated the story calmly.
Qin Xin stood opposite him, completely clueless about the concept of bloodline power, but after hearing the name Qin Xiao, he roughly guessed that the person was his father, Qin Xiao.
"It's a pity. Qin Xiao's talent was also outstanding. He hasn't returned for decades. He must have already perished."
The old man spoke very calmly, as if he had already seen through death.
"If I'm not mistaken, then Qin Xiao should be my father, and he is not dead. He must be trapped somewhere."
Qin Xin also spoke slowly.
Upon hearing that Qin Xiao was trapped, the old man's eyes showed a subtle change. Then, with a light tap of his finger, the jade pendant fragment that Qin Xin had placed in his spatial ring floated directly into the air.
Two points of light flickered within the jade pendant.
Looking at the points of light within the jade pendant, the old man's brows furrowed slightly.
"They must be trapped inside the ruins of the Immortal Palace," the old man said with certainty, seemingly aware of the existence of the ruins.
"I wonder if there's a suitable reason for you to keep me here, senior."
Seeing the old man like this, Qin Xin was unsure of himself. He could sense the old man's power, so he was very cautious.
Seeing Qin Xin's appearance, the old man remained expressionless and said, "Don't worry about my intentions. I'm not interested in your secrets or that spirit body. I'm just a spirit of an artifact."
"I'm just following the instructions left to me by my master to maintain this secret realm trial."
When the old man spoke of his master, his tone changed slightly, as if he were lost in memories of the past.
"The master you mentioned, senior, must be related to the Qin clan."
Qin Xin was also very clever and immediately guessed it.
The old man made no attempt to conceal his intentions and directly stated the reason for keeping Qin Xin: "Back then, the Qin clan's ancestor led countless warriors in a battle against foreign races within the Immortal Palace Ruins."
"Before the war, in order to preserve the human race, he left me behind, but took my physical body with him."
"Now he has perished in the ruins of the Immortal Palace. Only the descendants of the Qin clan who collect all the keys can enter."
"So I would like to ask you for a favor. If my original body is still intact, I hope you can help me retrieve it."
Although the old man spoke very calmly, there was a hint of expectation in his eyes as he looked at Qin Xin.
