Invincible cultivation strengthens: my son is a troublemaker
Chapter 416 416 Qin Chuan's Bluff
The Heaven-Burning King soared into the sky, his body enveloped in golden flames, like a phoenix reborn from the ashes, with an imposing aura.
As he ascended, countless chains of laws appeared in the sky, black clouds covering the heavens, thunder and lightning roaring!
"Stop him!"
Ye Lingshuang pointed down with her right hand, instantly gathering the endless power of dusk, transforming it into a celestial vault to suppress him.
"Go!"
"Suppress!"
Jin Zhi, the Sun-Devouring Emperor, the Earth Burial King, and Chu Zhongtian also made their moves, with four more celestial vaults crashing down.
"Break for me!"
The Heaven-Burning King's eyes shot out a fierce light, he extended his right hand forward and pressed down hard.
"Boom!"
The first celestial vault shattered into pieces on the spot, but at this moment, the four remaining celestial vaults crushed down, pressing his body quickly downward.
"Heaven-Burning King, we're here to assist you!"
At this time, eight elders of the Phoenix Race came whistling towards Qin Chuan's six people, with an overwhelming killing intent like a rainbow.
"Brother Qin, what should we do?"
Ye Lingshuang showed a look of urgency in her eyes. If the few of them were held up by these eight old fellows, then Qin Zi was doomed.
"You protect Xiao Zi, these eight old fellows... leave them to me." Qin Chuan smiled slightly, then stepped forward.
"Boom!"
Endless light erupted beneath his feet, as if he was stepping on a gale, his clothes and hair fluttered upwards, an overwhelming aura spreading mightily.
"This aura!"
"So powerful!!"
Everyone was stunned; the aura Qin Chuan released was so strong, even surpassing the Human King by a few degrees!
"This, this is impossible!!"
The eight elders of the Phoenix Race cried out in terror, their advancing figures suddenly braked sharply in mid-air, and their momentum weakened.
"Don't be afraid, two fists can't fight four hands; we have eight people, no matter how strong he is, he can't contend with us!"
The elder in a black robe said coldly, and then the eight instantly steadied their minds, continuing to charge towards Qin Chuan.
"Kill!!"
"Rumble!!"
The eight were all giants, their combat power earth-shattering, and when they attacked simultaneously, it was as if gods would die facing them.
The power was too strong, and the space in front of them instantly exploded, turning into a dark void, with violent energy traversing through the void, continuing to spread, intending to destroy everything ahead.
"Crack!"
The space around Qin Chuan's body shattered, his body fell into the dark void, but his expression didn't change, still floating there quietly, the space breaking merely changed his backdrop.
"Heaven-Destroying Finger!"
"Heaven-Crashing Fist!"
"Flame God Tribulation!"
The attacks of the eight were like traversing time and space, without any gaps, almost simultaneously landing on his body.
However, the next moment a horrifying scene occurred, those terrifying attacks landed on Qin Chuan, yet could not move him an inch, only making a "clang clang clang" sound, like striking iron!
"This is impossible!"
"How can your body be so formidable? There is no body in the world that can withstand the force of the giants' Great Dao!"
The eight from the Phoenix Race were horrified, giants are the extreme manifestation of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, their power derived from the Dao, the body seemingly insignificant in comparison, interchangeable at any time.
In other words, their cultivation can ascend to the clouds, but the body is merely hardware that can be discarded at any time.
This person's body could actually withstand the main force of the Great Dao's attack?
It's simply contrary to the natural order!
"Simple curiosity."
Qin Chuan sneered, then his body suddenly expanded, transforming into a giant as tall as the sky, his right hand swung fiercely towards the eight.
"Boom——"
The enormous white sleeve, as if sweeping dust off a table, smacked heavily onto the eight.
"Puff puff puff puff!"
"Ah!!"
The eight were instantly severely injured, their bodies covered in cracks, spewing several mouthfuls of blood, awkwardly flying backward.
But they were, after all, giants, stopping after flying a certain distance, chains of laws in various colors appeared in the world, like a spider web catching them, with endless energy surging to rapidly heal their injuries.
"Who are you! Giants can't possibly possess such a strong physique; it's not permitted by the Heavenly Dao!"
An elder of the Phoenix Race shouted hoarsely.
Qin Chuan's mouth curved slightly, speaking with deep meaning: "Have you heard of... the Calabash Brothers?"
"Hmm??"
Everyone frowned, puzzled, even the giants of Mystical Yellow Heaven showed looks of confusion.
Qin Chuan silently observed everyone's expression changes, finally confirming that even the people of Mystical Yellow Heaven didn't know about the Gourd Vine.
Perhaps, that seven-colored gourd seed had never appeared before, at least, no one had grown seven strange gourds.
"It doesn't matter if you don't know."
Qin Chuan looked at the eight suspicious and uncertain people, then glanced into the distance, saying with a smile: "You guys better stop thinking about killing my son, if you don't return, your Phoenix Race might be exterminated."
"What?!"
At the moment they heard this, the eight felt a jolt in their hearts, as if some intuition was suddenly triggered.
The existence of those at the Titan Realm possess intuition, capable of predicting imminent fortune or disaster. This intuition can be obscured by humans or be triggered.
"Not good! There's a change in the clan!"
A few quickly calculated with their fingers, but they couldn't predict anything. However, to them, not being able to calculate anything was the biggest anomaly!
Surely someone is concealing the secrets of the heavens!
"Let's go!"
For the eight of them, nothing was more important than the survival of their clan, so they decided swiftly to leave.
However, Qin Chuan blocked them.
"What do you mean by this?"
One of the elders gritted his teeth and asked.
Qin Chuan said calmly, "You came here aggressively to kill my son, and now you want to leave just like that?"
"What do you want?"
Several people's faces twitched, then anxiously stared at Qin Chuan, as if to say they were willing to pay any price.
Qin Chuan calmly said, "I know why you want to kill my son and understand your devotion to your clan, but ultimately, our positions differ. From my perspective, if you wish to harm my son, you must pay a price!"
"You know?" The eight looked slightly shocked, seemingly skeptical but slightly convinced.
"I do." Qin Chuan spoke calmly.
The eight stared at Qin Chuan for a moment, their expressions growing more solemn. One of them asked, "What price must we pay?"
Qin Chuan smiled and said, "It's simple. As long as you promise never to pursue my son again and offer him an opportunity, I will let you go... If you refuse, the Phoenix Race will perish today."
The eight showed expressions of painful conflict, but ultimately, they had no choice but to nod with clenched teeth.
Each of them separated a radiant orb from within their bodies and infused it into Qin Zi, then their bodies quickly dissipated.
"Dad, what is this?!"
Qin Zi's eyes lit up with joy as he asked.
"This is the essence of the Titans. Although it's not much, the insights and power within will greatly benefit you. If you're lucky, you might comprehend their Great Dao, paving your way to becoming a Titan." Qin Chuan said with a smile.
"Hiss!"
Qin Zi gasped.
Meanwhile, on the other side, an intense battle erupted. It was Jin Zhi and Chu Zhongtian besieging the Heaven-Burning King, with terrifying energy fluctuations that almost overturned the Celestial Vault, shattering space and breaking the Laws of Heaven and Earth!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The three were equally powerful. With two against one, the Heaven-Burning King could barely hold on and was prepared to escape.
At that moment, Qin Chuan took action.
"Splah!"
Qin Chuan waved his large sleeve, like a galactic river cascading down, directly enveloping the Heaven-Burning King and seizing him.
"Break it for me!!!" The Heaven-Burning King roared, releasing terrifying energy, but it was clear he couldn't break free.
In the end, he became obedient.
"Hmph, the victor is king, the loser a scoundrel. Defeated by you today, I accept it. Do as you will!"
The Heaven-Burning King snorted coldly, turning his head away. This was his last bit of defiance—no matter how dignified, once defeated, anyone becomes ordinary.
"I won't kill you." Qin Chuan said calmly.
"What???"
The Heaven-Burning King thought he misheard, looking at Qin Chuan incredulously. Then he sneered, "Don't pretend to be a good person! Your son humiliated me, and I can never share the same sky with him! I am not the type to compromise to survive. You either kill me, or I will kill him sooner or later!"
Qin Chuan was not angry and calmly said, "I think you and my son have some misunderstanding."
"What misunderstanding?"
The Heaven-Burning King sneered.
Qin Chuan calmly took out the Heaven-Burning Mirror, waved it before him, and asked, "Do you recognize this?"
"My Heaven-Burning Mirror!!" The Heaven-Burning King gasped, instinctively reaching for it, but then he retracted his hand, sneering, "When my Heaven-Burning Mirror is in your hands, you dare say it's a misunderstanding? It was your son who took my Heaven-Burning Mirror and humiliated me! Even if he turns to ashes, I'd remember him!"
Qin Chuan shook his head and said, "This was not given to me by my son; I took it from someone else."
"What?"
The Heaven-Burning King frowned, staring intently at Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan said, "I once encountered someone impersonating my son. During our battle, he used the Heaven-Burning Mirror against me. In the end, I killed him, so the Heaven-Burning Mirror ended up in my hands."
"So that's how it is!!"
Qin Zi exclaimed in realization since his father had used the Heaven-Burning Mirror to deal with a titan of the Phoenix Race before, capturing that titan in the purple gourd. At the time, he was wondering where the mirror came from. Hearing the Heaven-Burning King's words, he almost had doubts...
Now there's no need to doubt.
It turned out someone impersonated him, stole the Heaven-Burning King's treasure, and was then subdued by his father, making it a trophy of war!
Qin Chuan handed the Heaven-Burning Mirror back to the Heaven-Burning King, sincerely saying, "This was all a misunderstanding, it's better to resolve differences than to deepen grudges. I return the Heaven-Burning Mirror to you now, and from here on, we owe each other nothing."
The Heaven-Burning King looked at Qin Chuan in disbelief. After a long while, he clenched his teeth and grabbed the Heaven-Burning Mirror, ready to leave.
But after taking a few steps, he paused, fell silent for a moment, then turned back and said, "No, I owe you a favor."
After saying that, his figure dissipated and vanished.
