Chapter 455 The Advantage Lies With Me
The entire Fire Cloud Cave became shrouded in mist, where the fire tempered the body.

There was no inheritance or heavenly treasures; all effects acted on the human body itself, which was actually the greatest benefit.

Great power originates from within itself.

This change continued for seven days. Finally, a wisp of smoke rose from the heads of Qin Sheng and the other two. The shape of the smoke resembled a twisted human body, which was their own image, and then it dissipated into nothingness.

"The filth of the mundane world will dissipate in an instant," Qin Sheng smiled.

From the moment we are born, we are constantly struggling in the mortal world, endlessly sinking into the sea of ​​suffering, our bodies filled with impurities and karma.

This makes the body "impure", the soul "heavy", and life "ill".

Having been burned by the fire of humanity for seven days, Qin Sheng and the others felt completely clear-headed and cleansed.

The physical body returns to its original state, the soul is like crystal, the mind is like that of an innocent child, the vitality is greatly enhanced, and even the lifespan is extended.

Such benefits would make any practitioner drool, regardless of age, yearn for them.

The human form is the form of the "Tao," which is why demons and other alien races use it as a template when they transform into human form.

This humanistic fire enhanced the purity of Qin Sheng and his companions' "Dao Form".

"I have undergone a complete transformation, and my aptitude has greatly improved." Bixia Yuanjun was overjoyed. After carefully sensing her own condition, she couldn't help but smile.

"My primordial spirit is condensed, and my Dharma form is only a step away from materialization. I just need to go back and cultivate for a while, and I am 100% confident that I can cross the first level of the Heavenly Ladder!"

Qin Sheng was not surprised. Bixia Yuanjun was already capable of breaking through, so it was not surprising that this experience would allow her to break through earlier.

Of course, this is Qin Sheng's precognitive view. From Bixia Yuanjun's perspective, breaking through realms is never a certainty.

"My gains were also considerable." The white cat's voice was filled with joy. Although this mission nearly cost him his life, it was worth it!

Bixia Yuanjun bowed devoutly to the statue of the ancestor of mankind, chanting incantations.

"Three ancestors, please grant some more benefits to your descendants, I beg you."

Qin Sheng and the white cat were speechless. Woman, you are too greedy.

Qin Sheng looked around, but still couldn't see Gu Xiaosang. She hadn't appeared for seven days.

"It seems that the demoness isn't coming back," Qin Sheng said with certainty.

"Perhaps she met with an accident in the Dharma Realm and died at the hands of hostile reincarnators who were searching for the Huangtian Statue and Houtu Statue," the white cat suggested.

Qin Sheng shook his head. That was impossible. Gu Xiaosang wouldn't die in the reincarnation mission before the Demon Buddha made his move.

"Gu Xiaosang has some memories of the Golden Emperor, and she is willing to give up the gifts of the Ancestor of Humanity to stay in the Law Domain. I'm afraid there's something more attractive to her there." Qin Sheng understood.

This reincarnation mission was indeed tailor-made for the Great Luo Demoness, and Qin Sheng strongly condemned it.

"Something's not right. Why haven't we returned yet?" Bixia Yuanjun realized the problem.

"We have completed the restoration of the Ancestral Temple!"

While it's nice to receive benefits, the real trouble is not being able to return to one's own world; no amount of benefit can make up for it.

"No, our main mission is not only to repair the Ancestral Temple, but also to uncover its mysteries," Qin Sheng said.

And this step should be the most important.

Don't be fooled by the fact that most of the missions issued by Liudao are about chivalry and upholding justice, such as killing the lord of Yinhuang Fortress who intends to rebel and fighting against Duoercha who is invading the Central Plains.

Whether the beings in the cycle of reincarnation live or die is of no concern to the Six Paths. Issuing such tasks is merely to align with the individual circumstances of those undergoing reincarnation.

Even if you give Jiang Zhiwei and Meng Qi a mission to kill the heavens and the earth and all living beings, they won't be willing to do it.

Only if certain secrets can be discovered in the repeated cycles of missions will it be meaningful to the Six Paths.

"The Ancestral Hall has already been repaired. Can't the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation see what secrets are hidden here?" Bixia Yuanjun wanted to curse.

Are you blind?!

"The three halls of the Heavenly Emperor, the Earth Goddess, and the Human Ancestor have been reopened, the nexus of heaven and earth has been reforged, heaven, earth, and humanity have converged, the relics of sages from beyond the heavens have emerged, and the battle between factions has begun."

"The loser will have 500 merit points deducted from their Enlightenment stage and 3,000 merit points deducted from their Outer Realm stage!"

The voice of the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation rang out again, informing Qin Sheng and his group why this temporary mission was a factional conflict.

The root of the problem lies here.

Bixia Yuanjun's face darkened. "Deduct three thousand merit points? Why don't you just rob someone?"

She could certainly produce that amount of good deeds, but...

That's my mother's hard-earned money!

Three thousand merits are enough to buy a pretty good item for her.

In addition, killing members of the opposing faction also grants merit rewards, which is a common practice in faction quests.

"Don't worry about losing merit points. All we need to do is seize the relics of the celestial sages," Qin Sheng said with a smile.

“Yuanjun, your strength is no less than that of the others. We are very competitive. It’s just a pity that the Great Luo Demoness ran away. Otherwise, with her as the fourth on the Human Ranking, our chances of winning would be even greater.”

"No one will appear in the top three on the leaderboard for this mission."

The entrance to the Dharma Domain trembled, as if reminding Qin Sheng and the others of something. Without a doubt, the relics of the celestial sages were inside.

Without hesitation, Qin Sheng and his companions entered the Dharma Domain. A nine-colored pillar of light stood in the distance, reaching to the heavens and the earth.

“This thing wasn’t here when I came in last time. The relics of the celestial sages should be there,” Qin Sheng said.

The three hurried there, and on the way, Bixia Yuanjun said:

"Do you want to hide your identity? You're quite famous now. If other reincarnators see you, you'll be recognized in our world sooner or later."

"No need, I've done nothing wrong," Qin Sheng said nonchalantly.

Bixia Yuanjun choked, as if this made her seem like a petty thief.

The white cat shook its head. "Given Young Master Qin's status, even if other reincarnators knew, they wouldn't dare to attack him."

In the original storyline, some reincarnators recognized Jiang Zhiwei in the reincarnation world, but she never encountered any danger because of it in the real world. There's a very realistic saying.

Do you dare offend the Heavenly Sword?

In this world, connections and influence matter.

Master Su Wuming left protective measures on Jiang Zhiwei, so even if she encounters danger in the cycle of reincarnation, he can sense it and take action across realms.

Don't let the fact that Tianwai Shenjian is a homebody fool you. The overall art style of the game hasn't exploded yet, evolving from martial arts to mythology, but some characters have already become like gods and demons.

If you offend the Celestial Sword, it will kill you even across worlds.

"Yuanjun, how did you end up in such a miserable state? What kind of opponent did you encounter?" Qin Sheng asked casually.

"Four demons came after crossing the first level of the heavenly ladder, not to mention the rest," Bixia Yuanjun said through gritted teeth.

The thought of her lost treasures and depleted trump cards made her heart ache so much she could hardly breathe.

Thinking of this, Bixia Yuanjun looked at Qin Sheng, determined to pull him into the Immortal Realm so that she could recover her strength!

"Young Master Qin..." Bixia Yuanjun transmitted her voice to Qin Sheng.

"Isn't it lonely, desolate, and helpless for someone to struggle through the cycle of reincarnation?"

"...Fortunately, I have teammates, but they weren't selected for this temporary mission."

My team is full of talented people, how could I possibly be alone?

"Then each of your reincarnation missions must be very difficult, right? The sect's power can't directly help you in the reincarnation world; you have to rely on yourselves for everything," Bixia Yuanjun sighed.

"The Six Paths of Reincarnation has existed for a long time. Countless predecessors have used their lives to summarize their experiences. To survive in the reincarnation world, having more friends means having more paths, and there is strength in numbers."

"Actually, our mission isn't difficult. I think this one was alright," Qin Sheng whispered.

Bixia Yuanjun: "..."

"You bastard, I'm carrying a heavy burden, and you think it's all good?" "Yuanjun, just say what you have to say."

“Good, that’s the way we Jianghu heroes should be.” Bixia Yuanjun got straight to the point.

“Our Immortal Traces organization needs someone like you. Would you be willing to join us, Young Master Qin? If you are interested, I can give you a detailed introduction to our organization, but only what can be disclosed.”

really.

Qin Sheng knew that someone as radiant as himself, like a lighthouse in the night and the sun in the daytime, could hardly not attract the attention of the immortals.

Furthermore, Qin Sheng comes from the Sword Washing Pavilion, has a clear background, and is definitely a future pillar of the righteous path, so he passed the political review directly.

"Does the Yuanjun have the right to make such a decision?" Qin Sheng asked.

"You look down on people, don't you?" Bixia Yuanjun snorted.

"I am a great figure in the Immortal Realm, second only to a few people."

Qin Sheng smiled without saying a word, not exposing Bixia Yuanjun's true colors.

The Immortal Realm not only has the Dharma Body of Lingbao Tianzun, but also has a half-step Dharma Body below him, as well as many grandmasters. Bixia Yuanjun, who is in the third level of the Outer Realm, is only considered to be of lower-middle level among the official members.

However, when you're out and about, you earn your own respect.

On the rest of the journey, Bixia Yuanjun recounted the immortal traces in detail, and Qin Sheng listened attentively, neither agreeing nor refusing.

When Qin Sheng and his group arrived at the nine-colored pillar of light, they found that seven people had already arrived ahead of them.

The seven people stood in two directions, with four on one side and three on the other.

"The team has lost a member." Qin Sheng glanced around and saw that only one person had died, which was actually not too bad.

The nine-colored pillar of light was hazy and dreamlike, and it was impossible to see what was inside. There was a barrier blocking the way, so it was temporarily impossible to enter.

“A person from mythology, he probably undertook the task of repairing the Imperial Palace.” Bixia Yuanjun stared at the mask of the God of Fortune, her eyes flashing with a cold light. What a small world!

Immortal traces and myths, unless it's a cooperative mission arranged by the Six Paths, will never be able to coexist peacefully after meeting.

Unexpectedly, the "God of Fortune" from mythology turned around and left as soon as he saw Qin Sheng and his group arrive, abandoning the mission altogether.

"You cowardly rat, remember to kowtow to your grandmother Bixia when you see her in the future." Bixia Yuanjun mocked, but did not stop the "God of Fortune".

One of the "God of Fortune's" team members has already died in the exterior battle, and he is facing the other two sides alone, clearly with no chance of winning.

Bixia Yuanjun let him leave, not wanting to push the "God of Fortune" too far, lest he join a third team.

With the departure of the "God of Fortune," only two young men in the Enlightenment stage remained at the Imperial Heaven Palace. They looked around, their scalps tingling with fear.

Should we shoot on location?
slip away.

The last team still has four members, making them a complete unit.

“Xiao Rong, the Thunder Spear, and another unfamiliar friend.” Bixia Yuanjun’s smile was evident.

"Do you still want to fight with us?"

Xiao Rong, the Thunder Spear Master, is a wandering swordsman from the Great Jin Dynasty. His divine spear has swept across Jiangdong and he has quite a reputation. As seasoned veterans of the martial world, Bixia Yuanjun and the White Cat recognized him immediately.

Xiao Rong and the man wearing a wolf mask beside him exchanged a glance and communicated telepathically.

"Brother Lan, what are your thoughts?"

"Our cultivation is no weaker than that of Bixia Yuanjun and that woman, so why should we be afraid of them? They boast about their immortal traces, but they're nothing but worthless nonsense." The wolf-masked man licked his lips and stared at Qin Sheng.

"This mission was quite fruitful. I happen to need two more furnaces to break through to the next realm. After the mission is accomplished, their treasures will be yours, and they will be mine."

"Killing someone is just a matter of a head falling to the ground, why humiliate them?" Xiao Rong shook his head.

The wolf-masked man sneered, "Then are you willing to give up the celestial sage's legacy?"

Xiao Rong sighed softly.

"There are four of us. As long as we can hold off Bixia Yuanjun and the others, that last kid is nothing... Ha, he only has the Eye of the Blind. Liudao actually let such a minor character participate in this kind of mission." Wolf Mask continued.

Xiao Rong stopped thinking about it and instructed the two young men beside him:
"Go and kill that Enlightenment stage cultivator on the other side. After the barrier dissipates, go and retrieve the sage's treasure as soon as possible."

With such a treasure right before their eyes, how could they not fight for it?
Xiao Rong's team had two players in their "awakening" phase, both of whom were nine-aperture players. But what about the opposing team?

It's just two orifices; it's clearly just good luck. This mission was carried by Bixia Yuanjun and the others.

Nine orifices against two orifices, two against one, the advantage is mine.

Xiao Rong and Wolf Mask took the initiative to make their move. This time, the factional conflict didn't have much room for intrigue and scheming; it was all about raw strength.

Once the wolf mask's moves were revealed, Bixia Yuanjun recognized his true nature and her eyes showed disgust.

"So they were from the Temple of Joy."

The Joyful Temple, ranked among the nine evil sects, practices the art of sexual cultivation and has harmed countless female and male cultivators. It can be said to be one of the most notorious sects.

Long swords and precious blades shone brightly as four outdoor masters battled deep into the realm of magic, creating a dazzling spectacle with amazing special effects.

"Kid, die! This day next year will be your death anniversary!"

"With your Eye Aperture cultivation level, participating in such a mission, I don't know whether to say you're lucky or unlucky."

The two who had reached the Enlightenment stage also rushed over, shouting classic extra lines.

Qin Sheng felt a little regretful that Gu Xiaosang had left, otherwise he would have definitely protected her.

After sensing the condition of these two individuals in the Enlightenment stage, Qin Sheng shook his head.

"I don't know where you offended the Six Paths."

He had initially wondered if the other awakening periods in this mission would be as extraordinary as his and Gu Xiaosang's.

Now that I look, I've finished.

Qin Sheng thrust out his sword, immediately unleashing a move of "Sword of No Self," instantly killing the opponent.

Junior Brother Jiang's ultimate move was treated as a normal attack by Qin Sheng.

The scene here made Xiao Rong and the exterior of the Huanxi Temple twitch with worry. Two people with nine orifices were fighting one person with two orifices, and they were instantly killed.

“Qin Sheng, the Heavenly Sword!” Xiao Rong said in a deep voice.

The combination of the two apertures allows for a sword strike without self-interest; only one person in the entire real world can achieve this.

A person's name, a tree's shadow.

Xiao Rong glanced at Bixia Yuanjun and the others, and sighed inwardly, knowing that it was impossible to obtain the relics of the celestial sages this time.

As long as Bixia Yuanjun and the white cat hold them off, Qin Sheng can easily take the relics. At that point, they won't have lost the battle, but their mission will have failed.

This was clearly their plan!

"The three of you are on a cycle of reincarnation, each belonging to your own faction. We cannot resist this, so please do not blame us."

Xiao Rong said loudly, creating an opportunity at the cost of injury, using an escape item to leave this cycle of reincarnation.

"You bastard, surnamed Xiao!"

The exterior of the temple was furious, but he didn't have such a precious prop. Fighting two against one, the outcome was already predetermined.

Seeing that his reputation had driven away an outsider, Qin Sheng was very satisfied.

After the exterior of the Temple of Joy was destroyed, the barrier of light disappeared, and three items flew out from inside.

"Main quest complete, return immediately." The voice of the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation rang out, and Qin Sheng and the others disappeared into the Dharma Domain, each taking with them a sage's treasure.

In the Reincarnation Plaza, only Qin Sheng returned. He looked at the object in his hand with surprise in his eyes.

This is a clay figure, exactly the same in appearance and shape as the Demon Emperor, except that it is only the size of a thumb.

Did they give me a... figurine?
