Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The ceremony at the Qin Clan was hosted with the utmost grandeur. Across the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates, it could be said to have triggered an earthquake effect. All those at the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates were strangely astonished.
The news of how Qin Wushuang was taking over as Head Chief of the Qin Clan was announced to the world. Everyone now knew the Head Chief had changed. Due to the unusual circumstances, for now the Qin Clan would not accept outside guests to congratulate them. They only hosted it grandly inside the clan as all clansmen celebrated. All the bad luck and oppression for more than a dozen years was swept away.
Qin Wushuang appeared before the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates just like a brand new scene. Since the ancient times, it was unheard of that someone at the age of more than thirty years old would take over as the leader of a sect belonging to the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates. This information spread outside of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates through the entire Xuan Yuan Mound and the entire Tian Xuan Land.
In every corner of the Tian Xuan Land, any places there were martial artists, they were all discussing this astonishing move with the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan.
The fact how he took over as Head Chief in his early thirties simply challenged everyone’s cognitive ability. For your information, in the martial arts world, many people were still wandering at the Void Martial Stage at thirty.
For those weaker ones, they may not have even entered the spiritual martial force.
This was the disparity!
Qin Wushuang, at thirty something, already became the leader of a sect. It was rumored that prior to this, he also inflicted heavy injuries to Xin Tianwen of the Heavenly Emperor Gate.
All different rumors were raising a tremendous stink.
However, Qin Wushuang did not care about the rumors in the outside world. Instead, he was focused on the underground ley lines of the Aspiring Throne Mountain. While he trained, he repaired these broken ley lines.
What made Qin Wushuang feel excited was that there underground ley lines were indeed, the place with the most sufficient spiritual Qi. Initially, he was able to achieve rapid progress due to the underground ley lines of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. It allowed him to achieve astonishing breakthroughs in that period of time.
Currently, while Qin Wushuang repaired the spiritual ley lines, he did not feel strained. When he dealt with the ley lines everyday, it rapidly aided his own training.
The only unfortunate part was that through the battle with Xin Tianwen, one Golem Puppet was lost. It broke the synthesis of the Nine Palace Return One Sword Formation.
However, he would not be worried about this. Qin Wushuang still had materials and could make two Golem Puppets. One would be used to repair the hole in the Nine Palace Return One Sword Formation. The other one was to be hammered heavily, to be used as a clone for his real body.
Currently in his hand, he had materials to make three to five Golem Puppets. He would not be in a rush to use it all.
“Fortunately, when I activate the Golem Puppets, they did not integrate with my captured divine soul. Or else, when the divine soul puppet was killed, where could I find another divine soul at this moment?”
Initially at the Endless Eastern Sea, Qin Wushuang captured nine divine souls from Supreme Dao elite warriors. He manufactured them into Supreme Dao puppets, and used the divine technique to control their divine soul.
When he fought with Xin Tianwen, he split a puppet, and extracted the divine soul to prevent it from being killed.
Since that Golem Puppet was to be sacrificed anyway, it was unnecessary to fill it with a divine soul.
A Golem Puppet integrated with a divine soul would be the most powerful. Of course, Qin Wushuang would not waste a divine soul without a good cause.
With it preserved, now it would enter to integrate with the new Golem Puppet. Controlled by a divine soul, it can receive and send information wholeheartedly. There would not be a single flaw when practicing the Nine Palace Return One Sword Formation.
For the other clone puppet, there wasn’t another divine soul to merge with it. It made Qin Wushuang feel somewhat helpless.
Initially, he did not understand treasuring things when he killed Supreme Dao enemies directly. If he could have used the divine venomous skill to control a few more divine souls, he could merge them with his Golem Puppets, that would be the most ideal.
While Qin Wushuang sighed with sorrow, he reminded himself that in the future when he met more Supreme Dao elite warriors, he must keep them alive if possible. Killing them directly would be too much of a waste.
For the Nine Palace Return One Sword Formation, now those nine divine souls had already mastered the sword moves, footwork, and the technique thoroughly.
They only lacked the tacit understanding and the precise coordination in actual team practice.
This would need time.
Of course, to perform with all the power of the Nine Palace Return One Sword Formation, these Golem Puppets still needed to improve.
Inside the underground ley lines, of course Qin Wushuang would not let go of the chance to refine these Golem Puppets. Everyday, besides his own training, he kept working on these Golem Puppets.
On this day, as Qin Wushuang looked at the Eight Desolation and Six Directions Formation, he felt rather satisfied. “With this speed, after seven days, the spiritual ley lines would be completely repaired. Fortunately, the Nirvana Heavenly Plow was not a divine weapon at the level of the Heavenly Emperor Sword. Or else, when it destroyed the ley lines and caused a complete collapse, without thirty or fifty years, there would have been no hope in repairing them.”
The matter went unexpectedly smooth. For the three to five months of reparation estimated by Qin Xiaotian, Qin Wushuang only needed less than two months to completely repair all the underground spiritual ley lines.
This speedy recovery made everyone at the Qin Clan surprised. Naturally, their trust with Qin Wushuang had improved much more unconsciously.
Of course, Qin Wushuang was well aware that he was able to finish repairing these underground ley lines due to his skills with the five attributes. Additionally, it was also because his wood attribute possessed further healing properties. This was a talent and advantage not possessed by Qin Xiaotian.
Most importantly, Qin Wushuang also trained for a long time with the underground spiritual ley lines when he was at the Nine Refined Mysterious Wind Valley of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. He was very familiar with underground ley lines. He had a keen sense of the grasp and understanding of the movements of spiritual Qi. This right approach also allowed him to save effort that lead to better results.
After the spiritual ley lines were repaired, Qin Wushuang also made some appropriate adjustments to the Eight Desolation and Six Directions Formation. He made adjustments that let the direction of the formation have better focus.
Most importantly, Qin Wushuang used his own methods and divine skill to expand the exterior spiritual ley lines. The depth of defense received a certain degree of enhancement.
When the Eight Desolation and Six Directions Formation was once more activated, everyone at the Qin Clan cheered. To the Qin Clan, this was no less than a victory.
Such joy was almost on par with chasing away Xin Tianwen.
After all, when the spiritual ley lines were repaired and the formation was activated, it meant Qin Wushuang could return to that invincible and undefeated place ten years ago.
Currently, with Xin Tianwen losing the Nirvana Heavenly Plow, what other ways did he have to break the defense of the Qin Clan?
Inside the Upright Morality Hall, as Qin Wushuang sat in the highest position, he already had the prestige of Head Chief in between each and every movement. With the four great divine beasts next to him as his wings, it enhanced his prestige much more.
Currently, the Qin Clan could be considered as having strong soldiers and sturdy horses. There was a sufficient amount of Supreme Dao warriors. There were great meteorological feature inside the Upright Morality Hall. It caused all disciples of the Qin Clan to feel extremely inspired.
When they saw so many Supreme Dao elite warriors, disciples of the Qin Clan felt incredibly at ease. With all these Supreme Dao elite warriors, the future of the Qin Clan would surely be bright!
Qin Wushuang looked around and said, “Everyone, the spiritual ley lines are repaired, the Eight Desolation and Six Directions Formation is activated. We can celebrate that our land is stabilized. However, that Xin Tianwen will not drop this matter. I expect that in three months, he will certainly come to make some more noise. Currently, with many of their Supreme Dao elite warriors dead, only Xin Tianwen and Xin Tianchen are left. Now, it’s their turn to be jealous of the number of our Supreme Dao elite warriors. Thus, you must not let down your guard. Certainly, the Xin Clan will be deranged for now. They will deal with our Supreme Dao elite warriors regardless of the consequences. After all, the number of Supreme Dao people is extremely impressive. Since it’s impressive, we must treasure it even more. We must keep this great meteorological feature, and gain more capital in the Heavenly Emperor election in three years!”
“Head Chief speaks reasonable words. When that Xin Tianwen comes again, we must not fight him head-on by relying on our numerous Supreme Dao elite warriors. That’s an irrational thought. Currently, the most appropriate choice is to conceal our strength, bide time, and keep improving our power,” Qin Chongyang was the first to speak.
Qin Yunran also said, “Head Chief, if that Xin Tianwen comes again, we will use invariant strategies to deal with the great changes. Without the Nirvana Heavenly Plow, Xin Tianwen is left with no options. We shall watch him jump on his feet and be crazy with cold eyes, it could be a good thing to have fun with.”
Qin Wushuang said with a smile, “Clearly, it will not work for us to sit and ignore him. When that Xin Tianwen comes again, I will go out to deal with him, to attract his attention. Of course, the best moment to deal with Xin Tianwen is not now, but the day of the Heavenly Emperor election.”
Qin Yunran and Qin Chongyang both nodded.
“Yes, Head Chief is young, and has advantages. In three years, he should have the methods and divine skills to deal with Xin Tianwen.”
“However, although Xin Tianwen is the greatest reliable foe, in three years, the greatest threat to seize the Heavenly Emperor position will possibly come from the Yun Clan.” Qin Chongyang suddenly said, “The Yun clan shares a promise with the Qin Clan since ancient times. We will never send out punitive forces on each other and never be enemies. Despite this fact, we must not underestimate the strength of the Yun Clan. Especially the Head Chief of the Yun Clan, he’s also incredibly mysterious. I heard his power is no lesser than Xin Tianwen and Qin Xiaotian, the Grand Elder. For this competition of the Heavenly Emperor seat, the Yun Clan is the greatest opponent.”
The Yun Clan? Qin Wushuang had a strange feeling inside his heart. Yun Xuechen, the Second Chief of the Yun Clan shared an old fated encounter with him. He passed him the Cloud Garment Feathery Technique in which up to this point, Qin Wushuang enjoy the endless benefits of.
Although it would not be a heated situation when competing with the Yun Clan for the Heavenly Emperor seat, this would be a dispute with personal feelings. However, Qin Wushuang did not think about it too much. It was one matter with their private relationship, and work-related matters were another aspect. They would have a clear distinction between work and private matters, that should not give leeway to it.
While they were in the middle of a discussion, suddenly Qin Wushuang’s expression went slightly cold, as he said in a low voice, “An enemy is coming!”
“Who? Xin Tianwen?” Qin Yunran and Qin Chongyang reacted at the same time.
“It’s not Xin Tianwen, nor the Saber Beard divine beast.” Qin Wushuang shook his head. If it were these two, his Observant Finger Jade Plate would show.
The person that approached was a stranger. However, his power and aura seemed to be above Xin Tianwen. This burst of aura seemed to be able to be abnormally powerful that it could crumble the entire Aspiring Throne Mountain.
Qin Wushuang instructed, “Everyone, you will protect the mountain gate, I will go out and meet this person. Remember, do not come out recklessly. The person possesses enormous strength, and seems to be above Xin Tianwen. He is most likely a totem elite warrior!”
After Qin Wushuang finished speaking, with a flash, he already went outside the Upright Morality Hall.
As everyone watched Qin Wushuang’s miraculous motions and moves, at the same time while they were astonished, they were also strangely excited. When a totem elite warrior came to invade them, despite his young age, the Head Chief was this calm and showcased a sturdy demeanor!
With this Head Chief in the Qin Clan, what would they be afraid of even if the sky collapsed?
