A purple sword light flashed, and the cyan fireball vanished instantly.
At this moment, the entire arena had turned into a huge crater, and the figure of an old man appeared. Beside him was Hu Zhe, who looked terrified, with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
If it weren't for the old man's intervention, he would have been severely injured, if not killed, by the impact of the cyan fireball.
Looking at Qin Xin, who was already sitting on the ground not far in front of him, Hu Zhe felt a little fear, but his eyes were also filled with killing intent.
"Dare to attack a disciple of my Xuantian Sword Sect? You're courting death!" The old man who had rescued Hu Zhe didn't care about the reason at all, and pointed his finger at Qin Xin.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth transformed into a short sword phantom before his fingertips, directly charging towards Qin Xin. Wherever the short sword passed, it seemed to cause fluctuations in the surrounding space.
"A Yuan Dan Realm expert!"
Yuan Dan realm experts can already sense the existence of domain power, and their every move can influence the flow of spiritual energy in heaven and earth, but they do not yet have the same sense of control as Dharma Aspect realm experts.
Just as Qin Xin sensed the approaching aura, he was preparing to hand over his body to Dan Qing's control. Now that Dan Qing's spirit body had recovered rapidly, escaping from the hands of a Yuan Dan realm expert would not be a problem once she took control of his body.
Qin Xin made all the preparations, and at that moment, another powerful force rose up around him.
The phantom of the short sword slowly dissipated during the impact.
It seemed as if the space around the short sword was completely sealed off, which is why it disappeared without a trace.
"The Dharma Realm?"
In a short time, Qin Xin had a general understanding of the strength of the Grand Elder Chong He.
The old man who saved Chonghe looked rather grim after seeing Chonghe's intervention and asked, "Elder, what is the meaning of this?"
Chong He stood quietly in place, exuding an air of authority, staring at the old man, and said calmly, "Gongsun Li, don't forget, this is the Eastern Wilderness Academy, not your Xuan Tian Sword Sect."
"I was once a disciple of the Eastern Wilderness Academy. Seeing this young man's arrogance, I wish to offer some words of advice. I hope the Grand Elder will not take offense." Gongsun Li's expression suddenly changed, but his gaze still swept over Qin Xin.
"Alright, let's continue the competition. Qin Xin will now advance to the next round."
Chonghe spoke calmly, his voice carrying an inherent authority. None of the disciples dared to refute him, and even the peak masters of the five peaks bowed in response.
Gongsun Li did not linger at Kunmen, but instead left directly with several disciples of Xuantian Sword Sect.
However, as he left, Hu Zhe gave Qin Xin a rather vicious look.
Although Gongsun Li's expression was calm, the disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect behind him dared not utter a sound.
If he hadn't personally intervened, Hu Zhe would definitely have been defeated by Qin Xin, which would have been a great disgrace to the Xuan Tian Sword Sect.
After glaring at Hu Zhe, Gongsun Li said lightly, "Return to the sect and accept your punishment. The disciples of my Xuantian Sword Sect cannot be defeated by a martial artist born in this barren land."
"As for what method to use, you can discuss it yourselves, and then let me know the final result!"
After Gongsun Li finished speaking, he left. He didn't care about the disciples' assessment at all, because in his eyes, the so-called prodigies of the Eastern Wilderness were all just ordinary people. Even if they were taken to the Central Plains, they wouldn't achieve much.
Although he himself came from this Eastern Wilderness, and was even once a disciple of the Eastern Wilderness Academy.
After Gongsun Li left, Hu Zhe and the disciples of Xuantian Sword Sect behind him exchanged glances and then fixed their gazes on Tian Qi. If he hadn't been unable to even occupy a cultivation room on the main peak of Kunmen, such a conflict wouldn't have occurred today, and he wouldn't have been humiliated within Kunmen.
When Tian Qi saw Hu Zhe's somewhat fierce gaze, she trembled slightly. She was well aware of Hu Zhe's methods, so she quickly said, "Senior Brother Hu, it was the idea of Xia Qi, the second prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, to go to the main peak of Kunmen."
"After I and a few brothers went to the Gan Sect and occupied one of the training rooms, Xia Qi suddenly appeared and told us that there was a better training room in the weakest Kun Sect."
"I also wanted to show off the reputation of the Xuantian Sword Sect, so that's why..."
As Hu Zhe's expression shifted, seemingly suppressing his anger, he interrupted Tian Qi, saying, "Alright! I'm going to find the second prince of your Great Xia Dynasty!"
Tian Qi dared not utter any objection and hurriedly led the way, quickly heading towards the direction of the gate.
~~~~~~
Qin Xin endured the injuries caused to his body by the explosion.
After swallowing the healing pills, he returned to the main peak of the Kun Sect with the help of Qin Xue and the others.
Because he needed to heal his injuries, Qin Xin dismissed everyone and returned to his cave.
After sitting cross-legged, Qin Xin felt a slight headache coming on as he sensed the blockage in his meridians.
This fusion of martial arts attacks was more than twice as powerful as before. Moreover, he was using the Azure Rock Fire to protect himself, and he had also cultivated the Desolate God Battle Body to the third level. Therefore, when faced with that terrifying explosive impact, he could only barely withstand it. If the final explosion shockwave had not been wiped out by the Grand Elder, Qin Xin himself probably wouldn't have been able to withstand it, let alone Hu Zhe, who was at the center of the explosion.
After exhaling slowly, Danqing's spirit body gradually appeared.
Having cultivated under the large tree within the mysterious fragmented map space during this period, his spiritual body is now more solidified and seems to be even stronger than before.
"Kid, this is what happens when you show off. If I were to take action, that Hu Zhe would be dead in a heartbeat." Danqing said, seemingly somewhat dissatisfied, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
Qin Xin shook his head and said, "If I expose you, then I will have no choice but to leave this Eastern Wilderness Academy."
"It's just the Eastern Wilderness Academy. What's wrong with leaving? With your teacher here, I guarantee you'll become a powerful figure." Danqing said, sitting in a chair and gently stroking his illusory beard.
Qin Xin was already used to Danqing's empty promises, and he knew that leaving the Eastern Wilderness Academy would not delay his cultivation. However, he still had friends in the Eastern Wilderness Academy, and he did not want to cause them unnecessary trouble because of Danqing's exposure.
After exchanging a few words, Danqing returned to the mysterious fragment of the map, and Qin Xin followed her in.
Upon arriving at the foot of the giant tree, Qin Xin discovered that the green energy emanating from the tree was actively moving towards him, and the previously blocked meridians in his body were slowly being cleared.
The injuries inside the body are also healing rapidly.
"So this giant tree has such effects."
Qin Xin, having made the unexpected discovery, did not hesitate at all and immediately sat cross-legged under the giant tree to cultivate.
