Chapter 354: Traitor, Prepare to Die!
🕑 Added 2024-11-09 11:53:49 +0000 UTCSoon, everyone rushed into the Forbidden Divine Mountain.
Yes, all of them went in.
Why else would they come here? They weren’t just here to take a peek, after all. That excuse was laughable.
As the sky returned to calm, the space rippled slightly, and a white-robed figure slowly appeared.
It was Qin Chuan.
A slight smile played on his lips as he muttered, "Old man Qingyang is quite considerate, not only offering me cultivation points but also sending me a batch of Pindie Points."
He could already foresee it.
With Qingyang Zhenren’s bounty, a host of ancient experts would soon target Qin Zi, seeing him as a "soft target."
Of course, the idea of a soft target was deceptive. Once they actually confronted him, they would realize just how hard and unyielding he really was!
"System, buy insurance."
Qin Chuan said calmly.
Ding! The Forbidden Divine Mountain contains significant dangers. For ten Pindie Points, we guarantee your safety!
Qin Chuan frowned slightly and asked, "Wasn't it around three points last time? Why the increase?"
Ding! As time progresses, the internal dangers of the Forbidden Divine Mountain will grow, and so does the insurance cost. But rest assured, buying from this system guarantees you’ll never lose out!
The system replied confidently.
"Fine, buy it," Qin Chuan agreed.
Ding! Transaction complete. From now on, you can strut through the Forbidden Divine Mountain like a crab. You’ll flaunt it, but you won’t get smacked down!
The system spoke excitedly.
"Won’t get smacked down... but can I get humiliated?" Qin Chuan asked.
Ding! It's possible. If you want to avoid humiliation while showing off, you can buy dignity insurance for just five Pindie Points.
The system offered.
"Ah, earning Pindie Points isn’t easy…" Qin Chuan sighed. But before he could finish, a series of notifications chimed.
Ding! Your son has humiliated Li Goudan from the Tianmen Realm, auto-credited three Pindie Points.
Ding! Your son has humiliated Li Ershai from the Tiangong Realm, auto-credited six Pindie Points.
Ding! Your son has humiliated Liu Neng from the Tiangong Realm, auto-credited six Pindie Points.
Qin Chuan’s eyes widened.
In just this short time, he had already earned back the fifteen points he spent!
His initial sighs vanished, replaced by a couple of light coughs as he said, "Go ahead and buy the dignity insurance."
He could feel the system casting a subtle, disdainful glance at him.
But he kept his face straight, pretending nothing had happened.
Ding! Dignity insurance purchased successfully!
The system responded.
Without a word, Qin Chuan leaped into the Forbidden Divine Mountain, ready to act freely.
Pop!
It felt like he had passed through a thin membrane, entering a spatial tunnel.
Narrow at first.
Barely enough for one person.
But after walking a few dozen steps, it suddenly opened up into a vast and vibrant world. This world was strange, with its dimensions reversed.
He saw countless ancient trees growing like bonsai, barely reaching knee height.
Among these tiny forests, beasts the size of frogs roamed, hunting their prey.
Meanwhile, the surrounding grass towered like giant trees, reaching hundreds of feet into the sky and blotting out the sun.
Huge insects crawled across the enormous blades of grass, and even ants were as big as elephants!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Help me, ahhh!"
In the distance, sounds of fighting and screams filled the air. A group of ancient experts was being surrounded and attacked by massive insects.
These insects were bizarre.
Some giant spiders had wings made of flames, spitting out webs like waterfalls from the heavens.
Others were giant ladybugs, whose seven spots emitted sharp beams of light crisscrossing the sky.
There were also colossal scorpions, whose tails lashed like iron chains, attempting to bind the group.
"Help! Save me!"
"Please help!"
Upon spotting Qin Chuan, the besieged ancient experts’ eyes lit up, and they cried out for help.
Qin Chuan responded with a casual wave of his hand, sending a beam of light across the sky.
Crack!
Splat!
The massive insects were all sliced apart, their shells shattering and spraying foul-smelling green fluid.
"Thank you for saving us, great one! May I ask—" One of the rescued experts hurried forward, attempting to get acquainted.
But Qin Chuan wasn’t interested. He turned and left without a word, disappearing into the horizon.
Generally, when a powerful figure helps a weaker one, they end up helping again, and the weak may even start taking advantage.
He had only acted out of kindness for his fellow humanoids, but he had no intention of taking them along as burdens.
Qin Chuan continued flying forward.
His goal wasn’t particularly clear. He was mainly here to find Qin Zi, his treasured son, to keep him safe.
Ding! Your son has humiliated Jiang Taigong from the Lingxiao Realm, auto-credited nine Pindie Points.
Ding! Your son has humiliated Zuo Siqiang from the Tianmen Realm, auto-credited three Pindie Points.
Ding! Your son has…
As he flew, more system notifications rang out, and his Pindie Points continued to rise rapidly.
This put Qin Chuan in a great mood.
These Pindie Points were his to earn. Without setting up that trap for Daoist Qingye, today’s success wouldn’t have been possible.
This was hard-earned wealth!
Buzz, buzz, buzz.
In Qin Chuan’s hand, he held a jade talisman—essentially a tracker. He had infused some of Qin Zi’s blood into it earlier, allowing him to locate his son anytime.
"Friend, please wait."
Suddenly, a gentle voice called out.
Qin Chuan turned to see an elder with an immortal-like demeanor, dressed in white robes, wearing a simple, kind smile.
"And you are?" Qin Chuan asked curiously.
"Haha, this humble Daoist is Xuanyuzi. Greetings to you." The elder clasped his hands and bowed with humility and respect.
"Xuanyuzi?"
Qin Chuan’s eyes flickered.
He had heard this name in the past two years from intelligence gathered by the Tianheng Clan and the Human Race’s Holy Temple.
This Xuanyuzi was an ancient powerhouse. At his peak, he had been immensely strong and was known for his eccentric temperament.
"What brings you to me, Daoist?"
Qin Chuan asked warily.
"Heh, I noticed your extraordinary aura. You look young but possess remarkable strength. If I’m not mistaken, you must be Qin Chuan, the strongest of this era, right?"
Xuanyuzi smiled warmly.
"Yes, that’s me," Qin Chuan replied, keeping his eyes on him.
"I heard that Qingyang Zhenren from the Qingye Tianzong is hunting down your son. Your son must have already sent out a distress signal. You must be quite anxious right now, yes?"
Xuanyuzi’s smile was filled with confidence, as if he had everything under control.
"Yes, I am in a hurry," Qin Chuan nodded. He was indeed in a rush, waiting for Qingyang Zhenren to target his son, hoping to break through.
"Haha, no need to worry. Qingyang was recently trapped by me. He’s stuck in an array formation and won’t be getting out for at least three to five years."
Xuanyuzi stroked his beard proudly, basking in his own achievement as if saying, "No need to thank me."
"What?!"
Qin Chuan’s expression froze.
This old man had buried his "big fish" in a pit? How was he supposed to reap rewards now? How could he break through?
Taking a deep breath, Qin Chuan suppressed his urge to punch the man and rasped, "We’ve never even met before. Why do this to me?"
Yes!
We’ve never had any grudge between us, so why are you doing this to me?!!
Sensing the change in Qin Chuan’s tone, Xuanyuzi’s expression shifted slightly, but he still tried to play it off with a laugh:
"Haha, this is just the beginning of our friendship! I’ve heard of your great deeds and see that you’re no ordinary man. I thought I’d extend a friendly hand."
Qin Chuan took a deep breath, his face darkening as he gritted out, "This is no small favor! This is a monumental cause and effect!"
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Xuanyuzi was puzzled.
"Traitor, prepare to die!!"
Qin Chuan roared in fury, summoning a massive spiked club and charging at Xuanyuzi with a vicious overhead strike.
"Why are you attacking me?!"
Xuanyuzi was stunned by the sudden assault and quickly dodged back.
Boom!
The massive spiked club slammed into the ground, causing the earth to quake as jagged cracks spread out like a spider's web.
