Chapter 920 Trading
Qin Ming secretly unleashed ninety percent of his divine sense power.

In terms of soul-attacking supernatural abilities alone, even during the Fusion stage, they are extremely terrifying and difficult to defend against.

Therefore, the two old monsters present mistakenly thought that a powerful being in the late stage of the Fusion Realm had suddenly intervened.

Originally, Qin Ming had always kept the Ren Shui Ancestor in his little notebook. Now that the enemy was meeting, he was extremely jealous and had to give him a big gift.

Hidden in the void beneath his black robe, the Old Ancestor Renshui unleashed several divine soul-based defensive techniques in succession, barely managing to block the power of the gleaming silver crystal sword.

Even so, it still stirred his soul, and a sharp pain and dizziness came from his sea of ​​consciousness.

This was a fatal flaw in the battle between these high-level cultivators.

Even the old monster Ren Shui, who had been immersed in the demonic path for many years, was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. After recovering a little, he...

He released his divine sense to scan the surrounding area for a thousand miles, but found nothing.

The old man in the black robe revealed a look of surprise and uncertainty beneath his mask.

The person behind all of this was Qin Ming, who was hiding in the cabin.

He originally just wanted to test the strength of his newly acquired divine sense, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful, giving Ancestor Renshui a real shock.

However, Qin Ming was well aware that even though his divine sense power was comparable to the late stage of the Integration Realm, he could not overuse it, otherwise he would suffer the consequences.

Only after truly advancing to the Fusion stage can one truly control this powerful force.

"Thank you for your help, senior!" Lingyuan, the patriarch of the Lingmiao Sect, was quite adept at handling people. Seeing that things were going badly and a mysterious expert had stepped in to help, he immediately thanked the air.

Seeing this, Qin Ming suddenly had an idea and felt that the time was right.

Suddenly.

He immediately released another wave of divine power. The crystalline divine power instantly condensed into the shape of a human figure in the void. The specific face was not visible, but it looked extremely powerful.

Seeing this, the Ren Shui Ancestor on the other side was already considering retreating.

"May I ask who this senior is? Does he intend to interfere in our affairs?"

Qin Ming ignored him and instead looked at the Spirit Origin Ancestor, saying calmly:

"You have an item on you that I find quite interesting. If you hand it over to me, I can kill this person for you in exchange."

Lingyuan Ancestor was taken aback upon hearing this, and immediately cupped his hands and said, "May I ask what Senior needs?"

Qin Ming immediately moved his lips and transmitted his thoughts to the other party.

After hearing this, Lingyuan Ancestor's expression changed drastically. He never expected that his bet with the other two Nascent Soul Ancestors would be seen so clearly by this mysterious and unpredictable senior.

At the same time, he recalled that a mysterious expert at the Integration Stage had previously saved three elders of Qinglu Peak.

In a flash of thought, he even wondered if it might be the senior in front of him who was unwilling to reveal his true identity.

The late-stage Integration Realm cultivators are among the most powerful beings in the Spirit Realm, second only to those in the Mahayana stage.

These sect elders may seem incredibly powerful on the surface, but compared to such an existence, they are far inferior, like fireflies vying for the moon's brilliance.

Others may not know, but these old guys know perfectly well that they have been cultivating for tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years, yet they are stuck at the initial stage of the Integration Realm.

The difficulty of reaching the late stage of the Fusion Realm is self-evident.

When the Ren Shui Ancestor saw that the other party completely ignored him and instead made a deal with the Ling Yuan Ancestor, his expression immediately became uncertain.

He was also very aware of the vast gap between himself and the late stage of the Fusion Realm. In order to break through to the mid-stage of the Fusion Realm, he had not hesitated to join the Demon Clan and obtain a chance to be infused with True Demon Qi, which allowed him to advance by sheer luck.

The mysterious cultivator who suddenly appeared now actually had the cultivation level of the late stage of the Integration Realm, which made him hesitant to act rashly.

Upon hearing the mysterious cultivator's telepathic message, Elder Lingyuan's expression turned complex. He immediately said to Qin Ming, "This kind of transaction is not impossible, but I would like to ask a question if I may be so bold as to ask: was it you, senior, who rescued the three Void Refinement Elders of our sect from the Demon Clan?"

"Exactly," Qin Ming replied calmly.

Upon hearing Qin Ming's reply, the Spirit Origin Ancestor no longer had any doubts. He immediately took out a jade slip, flicked it with his finger, and gave it directly to Qin Ming.

With a thought, Qin Ming directly absorbed the object into his Lesser Spirit Realm, then turned to look at Ancestor Renshui.

The old ancestor of Renshui, shrouded in a black robe, felt a great sense of foreboding upon seeing the two complete some kind of transaction.

He was cunning and shrewd, and naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to fight a late-stage Nascent Soul monster to the death. He immediately took out a seventh-tier escape technique talisman and crushed it.

In an instant, a cloud of dark demonic energy emanated from the black-robed old man, from which countless blood-red demonic lights shot out and fled in all directions.

It disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Qin Ming and Lingyuan Ancestor were both stunned. They did not expect that Renshui Ancestor would be so cunning. As soon as he saw that things were not going well, he ran away without saying a word.

Qin Ming did not chase after him, but said to the Lingyuan Ancestor beside him, "I am now only a divine thought avatar. If that old fellow is determined to run away, I cannot stop him."

"However, I already know this person's identity. How about I exchange this information for intelligence?"

Lingyuan Ancestor also realized that the black-robed elder had vanished without a trace, and having narrowly escaped death, he bowed to Qin Ming and said:

"Very well, I would like to hear the details."

He was also quite curious about this demonic cultivator who had betrayed humanity; knowing his identity would be extremely important information for the Tianyuan Domain.

Therefore, Ancestor Lingyuan immediately nodded in agreement.

However, the name Qin Ming mentioned next astonished even Lingyuan Ancestor, a cultivator who had dominated the Spirit Realm for tens of thousands of years.

Qin Ming said calmly, "That person just now was the 'Ren Shui Ancestor' of the Tianhe Sect."

"What? It's actually this guy?" After learning the true identity of the black-robed elder, Lingyuan Ancestor was also extremely surprised.

"Anyone who dares to betray the human race deserves to die."

Just as he was about to exchange a few more pleasantries with Qin Ming, he saw that the figure that Jing Nian had transformed into had already disappeared in front of him.

Lingyuan Patriarch immediately came to his senses and began to call upon the disciples who had survived the demonic attack.

He swiftly and decisively wiped out the remaining leaders of the demonic path.

Subsequently.

After arranging the follow-up matters, Ancestor Lingyuan said to the disciples of the Spirit Herb Garden:

"The demonic forces here have been dealt with, but the disciples of the other two sects will likely encounter the same ambush as you. I will go and provide support; you should all return for now and await your sect's decision!"

"Yes! We will obey the Ancestor's decree!" the remaining disciples replied respectfully.

As soon as he finished speaking, the figure of the Spirit Origin Ancestor in mid-air had already turned into a blurry phantom and disappeared.

The disciples had escaped death and were still in shock. They had also witnessed a battle between powerful beings, which was truly an eye-opener.

They hurriedly treated the wounded, regained control of the sect's spirit ship, and, not daring to linger, returned towards the spirit herb garden. Qin Ming had also concealed his divine sense aura and was about to go out to take a look when he saw that Zhao Xuan had already returned.

She had fought with several demonic cultivators and was now almost out of mana. Seeing that Qin Ming was unharmed, her expression improved slightly.

"Junior Brother Li, it's so good to know you're alright."

Seeing this, Qin Ming immediately took out a Spirit Recovery Pill and gave it to her, saying, "Senior Sister Zhao, you should quickly recover your magic power."

Zhao Xuan didn't stand on ceremony and directly accepted the elixir, sitting down to recover.

After flying for half a day, the spirit ship of the Lingmiao Sect returned to the spirit herb garden without any major incidents.

After arriving at Qinglu Peak, Zhao Xuan bid farewell to Qin Ming and went to report back.

"Great, we're saved!"

The moment the disciples returned to the Spirit Herb Garden, they were all filled with a sense of security.

Qin Ming greeted the other cultivators and then returned to his Cui Xu Garden.

As soon as he returned to his cave, he took out the jade slip he had obtained from the Spirit Origin Ancestor and began to browse it with his divine sense.

"The Nether Spring Water in the hands of Patriarch Chequ was actually purchased from the Kowloon Chamber of Commerce."

"And it seems there's still one bottle left."

After reviewing the information, Qin Ming immediately understood.

He had heard of the Kowloon Trading Company before; it was said to be one of the top trading companies among the human race in the Spirit Realm, with a very wide trading scale that even extended to other alien races.

Therefore, all kinds of rare natural treasures are sold or auctioned by Kowloon Trading Company.

The Nine Dragons Trading Company also has branches in the Tianyuan Domain, and it was from there that Old Ancestor Chequ obtained the Nether Spring Water.

After reading it, Qin Ming put it away, planning to make a trip to it in a few days.

Things have been a bit unsettled outside lately. The demonic path has colluded with alien races to infiltrate the Tianyuan Domain and has even carried out large-scale surprise attacks and ambushes on the three major sects.

This indicates that the situation is still quite serious.

A few days later.

Qin Ming was tending to the spirit herbs and rice in the spirit herb garden with the Devouring Sky Rats and a few other animals when an unexpected person came to visit.

The person who arrived was none other than Lü Lu, who had made a name for himself at the Three Sects Tournament.

Upon seeing Qin Ming, Lü Lu immediately smiled:
"I heard that the disciples of the Spirit Medicine Garden were ambushed by the demonic forces on their way back, and many were killed or injured. I am so glad that you are alright, Junior Brother Li. I only found out about it later."

"You're lucky to have survived." Qin Ming smiled calmly and opened the formation to welcome him inside.

After the two sat down...

Lu Lu then told Qin Ming about some recent events:

“Junior Brother Li, you are unaware of this. This time, the demonic path and the Tianjiao clan have gathered in large numbers to launch a sneak attack. The scale is unprecedented. Our Lingmiao Sect is considered to be in a better position.”

"I heard that a mysterious late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator came to your rescue; otherwise, it's hard to say whether you could have safely returned to the Spirit Herb Garden."

"It is said that the battles at Taiyi Sect and Beast King Valley were even more brutal, with the Tianjiao Clan carrying out a massive massacre, and even several Refinement Void Elders perishing."

"Huh? This?" Qin Ming was also slightly surprised.

Seeing his surprised expression, Lü Lu quickly explained, "Junior Brother Li's guess is correct. The Tianjiao Clan also dispatched a Nascent Soul stage expert. After receiving the distress signal, the Dongling Patriarch of the Taiyi Sect and the Chequ Patriarch of the Beast King Valley arrived in time to provide support and fought a fierce battle with the Tianjiao Clan's Nascent Soul stage expert, but unfortunately, they were still no match for him."

"According to the cultivators who witnessed the battle, both the Dongling Patriarch and the Chequ Patriarch fled with serious injuries, and their disciples were almost completely wiped out, resulting in casualties several times greater than those of our Lingmiao Sect."

After listening to the information brought by Lü Lu, Qin Ming remained silent for a long time.
The Heavenly Horn Clan truly lives up to its reputation as a super clan in the Spirit Realm. They casually dispatched a Nascent Soul stage expert, and he severely injured two long-established patriarchs of the Heavenly Origin Domain.
Fortunately, the ambush was set up on the Lingmiao Sect's side. The one who came was the Ren Shui Ancestor, who had just advanced to the mid-stage of the Integration Realm. He was naturally suspicious and was tricked away by Qin Ming's divine sense power.

If a fight really breaks out, I'll most likely have to run away anyway.

Not to mention the Skyhorn Clan, whose members are powerful cultivators at the Integration Stage capable of fighting two opponents at once.

Lu Lu talked with Qin Ming for half a day, exchanged some spiritual herbs and medicines with him, and then took her leave.

Another half month has passed.

A shocking piece of news swept through the human cultivation world.

The news that the Heavenly River Sect's Ancestor Ren Shui of the Red River Wasteland betrayed the human race, colluded with the demonic forces, and attacked disciples of the three major sects in the Tianyuan Domain spread rapidly like a thunderclap.

This heinous incident is unprecedented in the hundreds of thousands of years of human history in the Spirit Realm. It can be said that Ancestor Renshui has set a precedent.

The Tianhe Sect and the Renshui Ancestor were also despised by the entire human race and became objects of everyone's hatred and hatred.

This incident directly alarmed the Star Palace, one of the three holy lands, which dispatched its army to cleanse and annihilate the Tianhe Sect!
Only a few elders and disciples were taken away by Ancestor Renshui and fled in disarray toward the territory of the Demon Clan.

The three holy lands of the human race have offered extremely high bounties for Ancestor Ren Shui. Anyone who can obtain any information about him or bring back his body will receive an unparalleled reward!
the other side.

Ren Shui Patriarch, accompanied by his trusted subordinates, was traversing the mountain range bordering the human and demon realms with a sinister expression.

He crushed a blanket with a slap and said through gritted teeth:
"I'm so angry!!"

"How could my true identity be exposed?!"

"This plan was meticulously arranged, and with the help of the Skyhorn Clan, it should be flawless."

"Where exactly did things go wrong? That old man Ling Yuanzi could never possibly guess my identity."

"Who could it be? Could it be that mysterious cultivator who interfered?"

The old ancestor of Ren water was so angry he was about to explode.

He never expected that his carefully crafted identity would be leaked, resulting in the complete demise of the Tianhe Sect, which he had cultivated for so many years.

He himself became a homeless dog.

From this day forward, I will completely betray humanity and never return.

"Just you wait! We'll make sure you get your revenge for today's humiliation!"

……

Time flies by.

A few years later.

The turmoil in Tianyuan Domain gradually subsided, and Qin Ming left the sect again to secretly go to Hanguang Cave Mountain Range, intending to take the Desolate Realm into his own Small Spirit Realm.

While I'm at it, I'll go to Kowloon Trading Company and see if I can get my hands on the Nether Spring Water as well.
