“Elder Nangong.”
Qian Dian and Yun Maohua bowed to the blue-robed elder.
‘When Liang Qiujing saw who it was, he too bowed immediately.
In the Luo Ding Sect, hierarchy was particularly strict.
The blue-robed elder who had just arrived was Nangong Feng, a Grand Unity Golden Immortal expert.
Qian Dian and Yun Maohua had informed him on their way back.
Nangong Feng stared at Qin Chuan and Dan Yangzi, exuding the might of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal. “You two are the ones who killed my sect’s disciple?”
Sensing this powerful pressure, Qin Chuan and Dan Yangzi felt a little uncomfortable.
After all, he was a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, and his cultivation level far exceeded theirs.
Qin Chuan and Dan Yangzi struggled to hold on. It was as if a huge mountain was weighing down on them.
They broke out in a cold sweat, their faces pale, and the sound of breaking bones came from their bodies.
“Old Qin, I can’t hold on much longer,” Dan Yangzi sent a voice transmission to Qin Chuan.
His cultivation technique wasn’t as advanced as Qin Chuan’s, and his physical strength was nowhere as strong as Qin Chuan’s. Nangong Feng’s aura was about to have him sprawling on the ground.
Seeing this, Qin Chuan immediately propped his arm up with his shoulder, determined not to let him fall.
Nangong Feng sneered. “I didn’t expect you to be so loyal! In that case…”
As soon as he finished speaking, an even stronger pressure gushed out from Nangong Feng’s body.
Qin Chuan shuddered uncontrollably.
If the pressure earlier was only from a single mountain, there were probably three of them now, and they were increasing in number.
Seeing the pained expression on Qin Chuan’s face, Dan Yangzi felt very guilty.
“Forget about me, Old Qin.”
Qin Chuan gritted his teeth. “Shut up! If I knew this would happen, I wouldn’t have slapped him.”
“But you still slapped him with me.”
“What the…”
Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan flew into a rage.
Talready helped you so much, and you are still trying to argue with me?
“E*ck, I’m not going to pretend anymore.”
Sensing the pressure exuding on his body intensifying, Qin Chuan couldn’t hold it in any longer.
“How could these mere restrictions trap me?!” said Qin Chuan, easily breaking the seal on his body.
Qian Dian and Yun Maohua were very shocked.
‘There was more than one layer of restriction on Qin Chuan’s body. With layers of restriction control, even a Heaven Immortal would have a hard time breaking through them. It was impossible for a mere Mahayana Realm cultivator to do it.
However, the reality was right before their eyes, and it had given them a new understanding.
After breaking through the restrictions, Qin Chuan immediately used the Law of Gravity to lessen the pressure on Dan Yangzi and himself.
Qin Chuan’s Law of Gravity was inherited from Elder Raven.
‘The Law of Gravity could be applied to everything, be it tangible or intangible. It could mitigate or exacerbate the unit of effect.
“The Law of Gravity!”
Nangong Feng, Qian Dian, Yun Maohua, and Liang Qiujing recognized the Law that Qin Chuan was using at a glance. This made them feel incomparably shocked.
‘As Qin Chuan’s cultivation level had only reached the Mahayana realm, and Nangong Feng was a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, after neutralizing Nangong Feng’s suppression, Qin Chuan’s dharmic powers were almost depleted.
“Old Qin, you were too reckless this time!” said Dan Yangzi via voice transmission.
“So be it! I have never suffered such humiliation. I won’t take this lying down.”
Dan Yangzi sighed helplessly. “Suit yourself! You do have a trump card, so you don’t have to be afraid.”
“There’s no hurry to use my trump card now.”
Dan Yangzi faltered. “You won’t use it now? Are you courting death!”
Qin Chuan said, “Look across.”
“Across?”
The four people led by Nangong Feng had bewildered expressions on their faces as their gazes fell on Qin Chuan.
Nangong Feng interrogated him. “I’m asking you, which sect do you belong to?”
Qin Chuan dusted off his clothes and replied with a polite bow, “Senior, I’m from the Lower realm. My sect is naturally also from the Lower realm. I don’t think you have heard of it.”
“Lower realm?”
Nangong Feng frowned doubtfully.
The Law of Gravity was no ordinary nomological law; how could a mere cultivator from the Lower realm master it?
Putting aside the Law of Gravity, just the fact that he could withstand his pressure for so long was not something that a cultivator from the Lower realm could do.
Qian Dian said, “Elder Nangong, I already interrogated him earlier. He insisted that they came from the Lower realm.
“However, judging from their performance, even the genius Mahayana disciples in our sect aren’t as freakish as them.
“After all, the conditions in the Lower realms are not even close to that of the Immortal Realm. It’s impossible for them to nurture Mahayana cultivators like the two of them.
“Therefore, I suspect that these two people are from a certain faction in the Immortal Realm. They might be a second-tier faction like our sect or even a first-tier faction.
“That’s why I didn’t execute them on the spot. Instead, I brought them back to investigate before making a decision.”
Nangong Feng’s face sank. He shared the same guesses as Qian Dian had analyzed.
‘Asa low-level plane, it was impossible for the Lower realm to nurture such powerful Mahayana cultivators; they had to be native to the Immortal realm.
Dan Yangzi and Qin Chuan heard what Qian Dian said clearly.
“Old Qin, I suddenly thought of an idea,” said Dan Yangzi via voice transmission.
“What solution?” asked Qin Chuan, puzzled.
“A way to prove our identities. Would you like to give it a try?” asked Dan Yangzi, looking unusually serious.
Qin Chuan knew that Dan Yangzi wasn’t joking, so he asked him to explain.
After a while.
“Senior, we are really from the Lower realm. If you guys don’t believe me, you can go and investigate,” Qin Chuan said loudly.
“alright then. Tell me which Lower realm you are from and mark its location on the galaxy map,” said Nangong Feng.
Qin Chuan paused for a moment as though pondering something. After which, he continued, “Truth be told, the place where I cultivate got into a conflict with the Beast Taming Corps. Due to the huge disparity in strength, the Beast Taming Corps ended up destroying it.”
Nangong Feng smiled. “You think I’m a three-year-old kid who’ll believe you?”
Qin Chuan argued agitatedly, “Senior, I’m telling the truth.
“Our goal in coming to the Immortal realm was to seek opportunities. Once we become stronger, we’ll seek revenge on the Beast Taming Corps.”
Hearing this, Nangong Feng burst out laughing. “Boy, sometimes you have to come up with a realistic story.
“Don’t you have any idea what kind of organization the Beast Taming Corps is?!
“Not even a hundred Luo Ding Sects can compare to a single finger of the Beast Taming Corps.
“Trying to seek revenge on them is nothing but a pipe dream.”
However, Qin Chuan’s eyes were filled with determination. “Senior, I don’t wish to explain further.
“If you really don’t believe me, I swear to the heavens that if I didn’t come from the Lower realm, a Heavenly Tribulation will descend right now to destroy my spirit and body.”
After Qin Chuan said this, Nangong Feng and the others subconsciously looked towards the door.
If he had lied, the heavens would really send down a Heavenly Tribulation.
What immortal cultivators cultivated was the Dao; they did not easily swear an oath to the heavens because the heavens would really answer them.
The sky was boundless, and the nomological laws of the universe did not fluctuate or change.
Nangong Feng and the others fell into deep thought.
“are they really from the Lower realm?” asked Nangong Feng, finding this hard to accept.
But the heavens had already given him the answer; the heavens wouldn’t lie to anyone.
“Take a look, Old Qin! My plan was indeed effective!” Dan Yangzi shot a meaningful glance at Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan didn’t object. According to Dan Yangzi’s instructions, he could indeed prove his identity as a Lower realm cultivator.
If he really was a cultivator from the Lower realm, he’d never be able to lie by swearing to the heavens.
But not if Dan Yangzi was the one saying that.
Even though he was only a clone now, clones were formed through the division of one’s divine soul.
The divine soul was like a birth certificate; no matter where one went, the birthplace would never change.
Now, all he had to do was wait for Nangong Feng and the others to come to terms with reality. Then, everything else would be much easier to deal with..
