Wherever my spiritual sense swept, the scene came into view.
The mysteries of the Spirit Realm amazed Qin Xin. He was even more curious about the later realms of spiritual cultivation. Unfortunately, the Supreme Divine Evolution Technique was incomplete, only recording the cultivation method up to the Spirit Form Realm, and then nothing more.
However, under the bombardment of the purple lightning, Qin Xin discovered that the Spirit Devouring Stone was not complete. Perhaps only after completing the Spirit Devouring Stone could he obtain the complete Supreme Divine Evolution Technique. As for how far he could cultivate this Supreme Divine Evolution Technique, Qin Xin did not know yet. But since this spiritual cultivation technique was brought by the Spirit Devouring Stone, it must not be simple.
As his spiritual senses drifted, Qin Xin seemed to see an underground palace before him, and inside the palace was a pool of blood, which looked extremely gruesome.
Within this pool of blood, it seemed as if countless souls were howling, almost causing Qin Xin's spiritual consciousness to dissipate.
Just as Qin Xin was about to continue exploring the palace further...
"Who dares to spy on my Ding clan royal family at night!"
With a furious shout, Qin Xin's spiritual consciousness instantly dissipated.
Startled awake by this overwhelming aura, Qin Xin gasped for breath. The aura seemed to be approaching the third level of the Core Formation Realm. With just a glance, it was as if it carried the laws of heaven and earth, completely shattering his spiritual consciousness.
However, just as Qin Xin's spiritual consciousness was shattered, the figure of an old man in black robes slowly appeared in the lower palace. He gently sniffed the scent of the place where the spiritual consciousness dissipated, a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"Spiritual practice? Looks like I need to start preparing now."
After the old man in black robes murmured softly, the blood pool behind him kept gurgling. There seemed to be the body of a martial artist inside. Under the infusion of massive blood energy, the body began to exude an aura that could destroy heaven and earth.
Because Qin Xin's spiritual consciousness was directly shattered, the spiritual power in his Niwan Palace also surged. It took some time for it to stabilize. The spiritual consciousness he had consumed was also almost fully recovered under the automatic operation of the Supreme Divine Evolution Technique.
"It seems that the royal family of the Ding Dynasty has a secret that cannot be told."
Qin Xin murmured, the terrifying blood pool still lingering in his mind, unable to dissipate for a while.
Qin Xin didn't think too much about it. He didn't plan to stay in the Ding Dynasty for too long. Besides investigating why Han Sui had tampered with his Wind-Riding Eagle after returning to the Eastern Wilderness Academy, he also needed to subdue the Lava Core Flame as soon as possible to improve his strength in order to go to the Central Plains and reclaim his Martial Bone.
The night passed in silence. Qin Xin activated his Black Cudgel Martial Spirit. Infused with the true energy of heaven and earth, the purple lightning mark appeared somewhat mysterious, while the golden Heavenly Phoenix Martial Spirit pattern exuded an air of nobility. (Biquge)
Sitting on the Heavenly Phoenix Futon, Qin Xin's figure immediately appeared in the futon's space with a thought.
The change before his eyes left Qin Xin speechless.
In the originally pitch-black space of the futon, it seemed that lightning was constantly falling, and the direction of the falling lightning was directly onto the ancient phoenix egg that could emit a five-colored mist.
What's even more surprising is that no matter how the lightning struck, it did not cause any damage to the lava core fire. On the contrary, with each strike, the ancient phoenix egg would shimmer with light, as if it were absorbing the lightning.
"So all the energy from those purple lightning bolts entered this futon space?"
Qin Xin then realized why, after being struck by the fist-thick purple lightning, some of it was absorbed by the Spirit Devouring Stone, but most of its energy suddenly and mysteriously disappeared from his body. It wasn't until he discovered the situation in the futon space that Qin Xin understood that even more of the purple lightning energy had been injected into it.
"This purple lightning power seems capable of hatching an ancient celestial phoenix egg?"
Sensing the life force within the ancient Heavenly Phoenix Egg, Qin Xin also found a way to hatch it, but for a moment, he was at a loss.
The purple lightning last time almost killed him, and the thought of it still made him shudder. If he were to go there again to hatch the ancient phoenix egg, he would most likely never return. After some thought, Qin Xin decided to give up.
Hatching this ancient phoenix egg is not something that can be done overnight. He will try again when he is stronger in the future.
As the lightning power within the futon space dissipated, the multicolored haze on the ancient phoenix egg intensified slightly, and the egg itself moved slightly, as if it had let out a burp.
"Knock! Knock!"
A knock came at the door, followed by a woman's clear voice calling out from outside.
"Qin Xin, you are participating in the Alchemy Conference. Today you will be going to the Pill Tower in Dading City for a test."
Zhan Qingqi called softly from the doorway.
Qin Xin awoke from his cultivation, slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, and gently clenched his fist. The three true acupoints beside his true meridians slowly circulated, and at the same time, powerful true energy burst forth.
Upon hearing Zhan Qingqi's voice, Qin Xin immediately opened the door. The morning sunlight felt very comfortable on his face, and Zhan Qingqi, dressed in a long blue dress, looked completely different in the morning light.
"Okay, let's go!"
After nodding slightly to Zhan Qingqi, the two began to walk out of the clan.
Where is your sister?
Seeing that only Zhan Qingqi was with Qin Xin, he became somewhat curious.
"My sister went into the forbidden area to help Grandpa recover. He should be able to come out of seclusion in the next couple of days."
Zhan Qingqi stepped lightly onto the ground and spoke softly, without the coldness she had shown when they first met at the Eastern Wilderness Academy. This made Qin Xin feel somewhat uncomfortable. Before Qin Xin could speak, she continued, "During your stay at the Zhan Clan, you should announce to the outside world that you have married into their family."
"Marry into my family? Um, then who am I marrying?"
Qin Xin wasn't offended by the word, but he felt it would damage someone's reputation, so he still wanted to know who the woman was.
"My sister and I..."
Zhan Qingqi somewhat awkwardly revealed the person Qin Xin wanted to marry into.
"Two people! This..."
This puzzled Qin Xin. He could understand if it were just one of the sisters, since one needed to use their Zhan clan identity to participate, but the fact that both sisters were participating at the same time made him feel very strange.
"You don't need to know the reason; my sister and I will never leave each other."
A blush crept across Zhan Qingqi's face as she shook her head, refusing to tell Qin Xin the reason.
"Very well, but does your grandfather know about this?"
Although the marriage was a pretense, a temporary measure to help the Zhan clan overcome their difficulties, Qin Xin was still somewhat worried. If the Zhan clan chief was unaware of this, there might be a lot of trouble.
"Um."
Zhan Qingqi nodded gently.
As they spoke, the two arrived in front of a giant building. This tower-like building was very similar to the Pill Tower in Black Dragon City, but it was several times larger than the Pill Tower in Black Dragon City. It seemed that this was because alchemists held a very high status in the Ding Dynasty.
