Chapter 494 - 293: Accustomed to Witnessing the Sun and Moon Crossing the Sky
CHAPTER 494: CHAPTER 293: ACCUSTOMED TO WITNESSING THE SUN AND MOON CROSSING THE SKY
Recently, Qin Ming has gained a relatively deep understanding of the Immortal Control Sect and the Helian Family.
But hearing about them is no match for seeing them. What kind of special "category" is this, coveting the Close Immortal Item, thinking about Li Qingyue, and now even wanting to recruit him?
"&!" At this moment, Qin Ming just wanted to spit out a bunch of indecent words.
"What are you talking about?" asked the young man in white.
"It’s the Sun Elf Clan’s greeting, hello!" Qin Ming responded.
Not far away, a master of the Sun Elf Clan was always watching him, wanting to come over immediately to correct him, hoping he wouldn’t splash dirty water randomly.
A woman from the Helian Family, in her twenties, similar in age to Pei Shuyan, with extremely profound strength, was speaking normally, but many nearby people couldn’t hear her; only Qin Ming and a few masters could.
She smiled faintly, dressed in white, with black hair like a waterfall and red lips. Although dressed as a man, her beauty and temperament were indeed outstanding.
"My name is Helian Yaoqing. If you want to follow me into the Immortal Tomb, you can find me afterward," she said, excusing herself, and then left just like that.
This was not what Qin Ming had imagined. He thought the main character would find trouble with him after appearing.
He now traveled with hidden protection from Sun Elf masters, so he actively "tested the waters," wanting to see the other party’s methods early.
Unexpectedly, it was all thunder and no rain. Just like that, nothing happened?
The young Helian Mingxu did not leave, sizing him up with a peculiar gaze, soon invited away by several young nobles.
In the palace, there were some thick pillars, carved with dragons and phoenixes, flowing with dragon and phoenix beams of light.
Pei Shuyan, leaning against a large column, looked at the approaching Qin Ming and asked, "Having met people of the Helian Family, how do you feel?"
"What’s the situation with Helian Yaoqing?" Qin Ming asked.
Pei Shuyan said, "I haven’t had much deep interaction with her, only know she doesn’t like her cousin Helian Zhaoyu; they inherently don’t get along."
"Wait a minute, did I miss something?" Qin Ming inquired.
Moments later, his expression slightly cooled. The real person interested in Li Qingyue and the Close Immortal Item Furnace of Eight Trigrams was Helian Zhaoyu.
As for Helian Yaoqing, she wasn’t the main character.
The young Helian Mingxu is very close to Helian Zhaoyu, being the latter’s direct nephew.
Earlier, Qin Ming misunderstood Helian Yaoqing, but secretly, he sighed in relief. After all, she is a woman. But now he found out the main character is someone else, and he furrowed his brow deeply; nothing has deviated from the original track.
"What sort of person is Helian Zhaoyu?" Qin Ming wanted to know more.
"What he desires in his heart, he eventually achieves," was Pei Shuyan’s succinct evaluation.
"He seems extremely domineering, achieving his goals by any means?" Qin Ming pondered slightly, feeling that Helian Zhaoyu is quite dangerous.
"This was said by someone from the Immortal Control Sect. I rarely see him myself," Pei Shuyan shook his head.
"How strong is he?" Qin Ming asked.
Pei Shuyan said, "He has never fought anyone in the Outer World."
Qin Ming was surprised, "Is he a hot-house sprout?"
"There’s a rumor; since he was very young, he has been taken around the Yewu World to temper himself under different identities. For a while, he was so murderous that even birds and beasts dared not approach. Later, he practiced a type of scripture, washing away the bloodthirsty aura, returning to become a gentle nobleman."
"Did he not come tonight?" Qin Ming asked.
Pei Shuyan said, "He is in the Great Yu Palace, using the overwhelming Dragon Energy there to refine a deadly exotic treasure as preparation for the Great Exploration."
Qin Ming sighed, his background is indeed powerful, being able to enter such a place to refine treasure.
He looked at the night sky, already contemplating the worst-case scenario.
He couldn’t hope for the Helian Family to encounter misfortune at the Immortal Tomb.
Judging from Helian Zhaoyu’s personality, he won’t stop until he achieves his goal, and behind him, there is the Immortal Control Sect. Protecting Qing Yue and his Furnace of Eight Trigrams would be difficult.
Qin Ming is confident that he can rise in the Great Exploration, unafraid of the Helian Family’s younger generation. But what if he provokes an old monster from the Immortal Control Sect?
He couldn’t bear to watch Li Qingyue face those challenges alone. He had already realized how difficult the road ahead would be if it brushes against the Immortal Control Sect, it would be extremely dangerous.
"Relying on Helian Yaoqing to suppress her brother? That’s just unreliable."
Qin Ming’s thoughts drifted back to Shuangshu Village. Could Old Man Liu—Liu Mo, fully recover his strength? Then he shook his head; it was unlikely.
He also thought of the Silk Calligraphy Ancestor Master fished from the Black Dragon Pond, who had not only subdued several questionable "Mad Gods" but had also killed a regular Divine in Yujing who rode out on a Golden Lion.
"Should I attempt to dig out the Ancestor Master to see if the elder still has any life left?" Qin Ming sighed, feeling it was far too blasphemous. Even if the Ancestor Master hadn’t entirely expired, upon opening his eyes, he would probably first slap him.
He felt a bit of chest tightness but also an unprecedented fighting spirit!
Qin Ming yearned to grow stronger, driven by the desire to rise quickly.
At this moment, many people were discussing the Immortal Tomb Territory. According to the tales of the Sun Elf Clan, digging even one shovelful of barren land could unearth relics of ancient cultivators. Occasionally, a deep excavation would reveal a tomb with abundant burial goods, unearthing many treasures.
In that region, one could clearly see miraculous medicines growing over the graves, with Spirit Light filling the sky. Unfortunately, it was unreachable, shrouded by an array.
The Sun Elf Clan has guarded there for a long time, yet they have not dug through the crucial territory.
"Most importantly, the areas we mentioned just now, those Immortal Tombs belong to the subordinate tombs, guarding the main mausoleum..."
For a time, many were intrigued, their thoughts wandering far and wide.
Excavating some burial tombs could even allow the Sun Elf Clan, who reveres nature, to embark on the cultivation path, producing an Ancestor Master at the Sixth Realm. Now people had reasons to believe that the main tomb contained secrets about the Seventh Realm.
