After a few simple greetings and compliments, Yin Bancheng finally got to the point.
"I have one thing I want to ask. I wonder if Sect Master Qin is willing to enlighten me?"
"What is it?"
"May I ask Sect Master Qin, what is a Celestial Being?"
Qin Shujian replied lightly, "Above the Divine Martial Realm is the Celestial Being."
"…"
Yin Bancheng was about to answer, but at this time, he choked.
What was a Celestial Being?!
Above the Divine Martial Realm was the Celestial Being.
There didn't seem to be any problem with this answer. Even if he wanted to refute it, he didn't know where to start.
Yin Bancheng didn't believe that Qin Shujian didn't know what he meant, but the other party's answer clearly showed that he wanted to evade the question.
Normally speaking.
At this time, the topic should be stopped.
But …
The Celestial Being Realm had been Yin Bancheng's obsession for a thousand years. It wasn't easy to meet a Celestial Being, so how could he let go of such an opportunity?
"Sect Master Qin, what I want to ask is, how can I break through to the Celestial Being Realm?"
"This question makes this Qin feel embarrassed."
The smile on Qin Shujian's face faded a little. He tapped his fingers on the armrest and didn't answer the question directly.
At this time, Yin Bancheng suddenly stood up, bowed deeply, and said solemnly, "I know this question makes Sect Master Qin feel embarrassed, but I've been stuck at the peak of the Divine Martial Realm for a thousand years. I don't have much time left.
If Sect Master Qin can give me a few pointers, the Traceless Sect will definitely reward you generously. "
"What price can the Traceless Sect pay?"
Qin Shujian's expression also turned serious.
If there was a reward, then everything would be fine.
Anyway, the method to break through to the Celestial Being Realm wasn't a secret to other Celestials. Although not many people knew this news, it definitely wasn't a small number.
But knowing was one thing, and being able to break through was another.
If a piece of information could be exchanged for benefits, he wouldn't refuse.
Yin Bancheng said, "Sect Master Qin, as long as it's not something difficult, the Traceless Sect will agree."
"How many properties does the Traceless Sect have? How much are they worth?"
"This …" Yin Bancheng hesitated for a moment, and then looked at Su Yuan who was at the side.
Seeing this, Su Yuan immediately understood. He cupped his hands and said, "My Traceless Sect has a lot of properties now. If converted into silver taels, it should be around 2 billion silver taels."
"Two billion." Qin Shujian's smile widened as he looked at the two of them and said slowly.
"This Qin won't beat around the bush. If the Traceless Sect can take out 500 million silver taels, then I will tell you the secret of how to break through to the Celestial Realm."
"I do. It's a resource worth 500 million taels of silver. As for cash, there's no need for that."
There were quite a few in the Silver Essence Sect.
What they needed now was cash to buy resources.
At present, the flames of war were everywhere. War was the place that consumed the most resources. Many things in the market had been bought by the various feudal lords and the imperial court, causing it to be somewhat difficult for Yuan Zong to purchase some things recently.
Yin Bancheng nodded without hesitation, "Traceless Sect agrees to this matter."
The resources worth 500 million taels of silver were important.
But for him now, the chance to break through to the Diviner level was more important.
As long as he could break through to the Diviner level, he would not hesitate to pay any price.
Or else …
When his lifespan ended, the Traceless Sect would lack a powerhouse at the peak of the Divine Martial Realm. Their strength would definitely decline a lot.
At that time, when the various sects swallowed them up, their losses might not be less than this.
Yin Bancheng agreed readily, and Qin Shujian's answer was equally straightforward.
"But there's one thing that this Qin will say first. I will only tell you how to break through to the Diviner level. Without my permission, you are not allowed to pass it on to others."
"Otherwise …!"
At this point, a vast and surging aura spread out from his body, causing Yin Bancheng and Su Yuan's expressions to change dramatically.
"I can guarantee that no one in the world can protect the Traceless Sect."
This aura was so vast that even Yin Bancheng felt a little breathless.
Although he had reached the peak of the Divine Martial Realm, this was the first time he faced a Diviner at such a close distance.
He had heard of Qin Shujian's threat.
Yin Bancheng took a deep breath and then solemnly replied, "Sect Master Qin, you can rest assured that no one will know about this matter whether I break through to the Diviner level or not."
"Okay!"
Qin Shujian nodded.
Then he got up and walked out of the hall.
"If there's nothing else, you can come with me. As for the resources, prepare them as soon as possible. I don't like to delay things for too long."
"Su Yuan, go back and prepare the resources, then send them to Sect Master Qin."
"Understood."
Su Yuan replied in awe.
He didn't refuse Yin Bancheng's approach.
If the other party could break through to the Diviner level, it would be of great benefit to the entire Traceless Sect.
After giving some instructions …
Su Yuan immediately got up and left. As for Yin Bancheng, he followed behind Qin Shujian and left the Chengwu Hall.
Walking in the Yuan Sect …
Yin Bancheng was always half a head behind Qin Shujian. He didn't have the aura of a Supreme Elder of the Traceless Sect at all. Instead, he was like a student, following behind his teacher.
There was no seniority in learning.
The one who learned was the teacher.
Moreover, in Yin Bancheng's mind, Qin Shujian was the reincarnation of a peak almighty expert.
In terms of real age, the other party was probably a few streets ahead of him.
In addition, he was now a Diviner.
Therefore …
Yin Bancheng didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it.
When he opened the gate of the courtyard, a strong wave of spirit energy rushed out.
Since the last time he left the sect, Qin Shujian hadn't returned for several months.
The osmanthus tree in the courtyard had grown more luxuriant at this time. The osmanthus flowers on the branches and leaves were in full bloom, exuding a refreshing fragrance.
Sensing Qin Shujian's return, the osmanthus tree's branches and leaves were swaying non-stop.
When Yin Bancheng walked into the courtyard, he was also attracted by this spirit plant.
"This tree's spirituality has already been born. Its achievements in the future will be extraordinary. Yuan Sect really has a deep foundation. It's admirable!"
This praise …
Yin Bancheng wasn't purely flattering.
It was easy to cultivate spirit plants, but it was another matter to give birth to spirituality.
As long as all living things in the world gave birth to spirituality, they would have a chance to step on the path of cultivation.
Spirit plants had a long lifespan, much longer than ordinary demons. As long as Yuan Sect's spirit plant was properly cultivated, after a thousand years, there would be another powerful cultivator.
"Elder Yin, please take a seat!"
Qin Shujian's sleeves fluttered, and the fine dust on the stone table flew in.
Yin Bancheng sat down as he was told.
"It's actually very simple to break through to the Diviner Realm." Qin Shujian looked at him, thought for a moment, and then said, "Rudimentary Martial Arts lays the foundation, True Martial Arts cultivates Qi, Spiritual Martial Arts cultivates Yin Spirit, and Divine Martial Arts cultivates Yang Spirit."
At this moment …
Yin Bancheng's expression was already solemn, and he was listening attentively.
How to break through to the Diviner Realm.
This could be considered a different kind of preaching.
The Traceless Sect had spent 500 million taels of silver to get this opportunity, so they naturally wouldn't waste it.
In the following period of time …
Qin Shujian briefly explained the method to break through to the Diviner Realm, and then also talked about his own enlightenment.
After all, with 500 million taels of resources in hand, it was impossible to simply say that one could break through to the Diviner Realm by combining essence, qi, and spirit.
In that case …
Yin Bancheng would probably fight with him to the death.
Until now …
Qin Shujian also hoped that the cultivation world of the Beiyun Mansion could be stronger.
Although Yuan Sect was the dominant force at the moment, the situation was good.
But according to the current development of the situation, sooner or later, they would have to go to war with the Demon Clan.
The cultivation world of the Beiyun Mansion was weak.
If Yuan Sect was alone, it would be difficult for two fists to fight against four hands.
Under such circumstances, it would be a good thing for Qin Shujian if he could have more helpers.
The most important thing was …
Even if other sects produced Diviners, he was confident that he could suppress them.
This was the real reason.
If Qin Shujian wasn't confident in suppressing them, he wouldn't have preached to Yin Bancheng so easily. Not to mention 500 million taels of silver, even if it was doubled, it would still be the same.
After preaching for a while …
Two hours passed in a flash.
In the end, Qin Shujian looked at Yin Bancheng, shook his head and said, "To be honest, to break through to the Diviner Realm, your essence, qi, and spirit must be in peak condition. Although your Spirit God is strong now, your qi and blood are declining. Even if you know how to break through, the success rate is not high.
If you fail to break through by force, your qi and blood will be depleted, and your lifespan may be reduced.
In my opinion, you'd better not break through by force. "
He could see that Yin Bancheng was eager to break through.
But in his state, these words were really just to scare him.
Yin Bancheng said with a wry smile, "I understand what Sect Leader Qin said, but I've been at the peak of the Divine Martial Arts Realm for thousands of years. Now that I have a chance, I can't die in peace if I don't give it a try.
And I don't have much lifespan left. Even if I don't break through by force, I can only live for another one or two hundred years. What's the use? "
"That's true."
Qin Shujian nodded slightly, then changed the topic and said with a faint smile, "But it's not completely impossible. You can find a chance to make up for your qi and blood."
"Sect Leader Qin, what do you mean?"
"Have you heard of the Cultivation Pill?"
"The Cultivation Pill?" Yin Bancheng murmured, then asked in surprise, "Sect Leader Qin, are you talking about the Cultivation Pill that can reverse the Connate Heavens?"
The ninth-level pill, the Cultivation Pill.
With his status, he had naturally heard of it.
It was just that there were too many pills in the world. If Qin Shujian hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have remembered it for a while.
In response to Yin Bancheng's question, Qin Shujian nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, it's the Cultivation Pill that can reverse the Connate Heavens."
"Your qi and blood are declining. If you want to break through to the Diviner Realm, you must rejuvenate your qi and blood. Only by reversing the effects of the Connate Heavens can you do this. Otherwise, your breakthrough will definitely fail."
Yin Bancheng looked troubled and sighed, "It's very difficult to obtain the Cultivation Pill. Even an ordinary Alchemy Grandmaster may not be able to refine it."
With the strength of the Traceless Sect.
It wouldn't be easy to collect the Cultivation Pill.
Qin Shujian faintly smiled. "Perhaps I have a way to deal with the Revival Good Fortune Pill. But, you should also know that there are strong and weak ninth-step pills. The Revival Good Fortune Pill reverses the Xiantian realm and is at the peak.
If you want to get the Cultivation Pill, the price is not low at all. "
"Is Sect Leader Qin serious?"
Yin Bancheng's hands, which were hidden in his sleeves, suddenly clenched. He could no longer keep calm as he looked at Qin Shujian.
If Qin Shujian didn't lie to him.
Then, if he got the Cultivation Pill, he had at least a fifty percent chance of breaking through to the Diviner Realm.
Although a fifty percent chance was low, it was actually very high.
Ordinary people had at most a twenty percent chance of breaking through to the Diviner Realm, or even lower.
Yin Bancheng could achieve this because he had been at the peak of the Divine Martial Realm for thousands of years. During this period, he had explored the path to the Diviner Realm countless times. Finally, he heard Qin Shujian's preaching and verified himself.
Even if there was a fifty percent chance, there was still a fifty percent chance of failure.
But for Yin Bancheng.
Fifty percent.
It was enough.
Not to mention fifty percent, even if he had a thirty percent chance, he would still try.
Once he broke through to the Diviner Realm, the problem of his lifespan would be solved.
As for the price, even if he had to empty the entire Traceless Sect, he would not hesitate.
"The Cultivation Pill is not a problem." Qin Shujian skillfully boiled the water with his vital essence. Then, with a thought, he took two osmanthus flowers from the branches and leaves and brewed them.
Suddenly, a fragrance filled the air.
Without seeing him do anything, one of the cups of tea automatically moved in front of Yin Bancheng. Then, he picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip.
"But the Cultivation Pill is the creation of heaven and earth. It is not something that can be bought with money. If the Traceless Sect can take out twenty spirit stones, I can get the Cultivation Pill."
"Twenty spirit stones!"
Yin Bancheng's hand trembled again.
This was not a small number.
Combined with the original five hundred million taels of resources, it was almost half of the Traceless Sect.
But — —
Compared to the temptation of breaking through to the Diviner Realm, this price was still within his acceptable range.
Then.
Yin Bancheng looked straight at Qin Shujian and asked in a deep voice, "Sect Master Qin, are you serious?"
"I'm not joking."
"Okay, but I want to make one last deal with Sect Master Qin."
"What deal?"
"I want to take a look at your Divine Connection Technique."
After saying that.
A murderous intent that seemed to have condensed into a substance instantly locked onto him.
Qin Shujian put down the teacup in his hand, looked at Yin Bancheng indifferently, and said coldly, "Elder Yin, I have been giving you a chance because of your face. Don't push your luck.
You must know that a man who is not content is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant. "
Looking at the Divine Connection Technique, only he could say that.
A Divinity cultivation method was the lifeline of a top sect.
If it could be casually shown to others, then the sect would not be far from destruction.
Seeing this.
Yin Bancheng also realized that he had misspoken and hurriedly explained, "Sect Master Qin, please don't misunderstand. I just want to take a look at the Heavenly Corpse Sect's Divine Connection Technique. I have no intention of coveting your sect's inheritance."
"The Heavenly Corpse Sect's Divine Connection Technique is now in the Yuan Pavilion. If Elder Yin is interested, you can go to the Yuan Pavilion to exchange for it."
Qin Shujian mercilessly refused.
Diviner Realm Enlightenment and Fortune Pill.
Although these were all exchanged with money, if Sect Master Qin did not give them, they would not be able to get them even if they had money.
Not only did he give so many benefits, he also wanted to take a look at the Divine Connection Technique.
All of a sudden.
A thought emerged in Qin Shujian's mind: This should be the legendary dragon!
"Sect Master Qin, what price do I have to pay to take a look at the Divine Connection Technique?" Yin Bancheng did not know what the other party was thinking and asked bluntly.
"Price?"
Qin Shujian sneered, "The price of the Divine Connection Technique is not something your Traceless Sect can afford."
Speaking of this.
He paused for a moment and continued, "Elder Yin, I have already said this much. I don't think I need to say more. I have already given you the Diviner Realm Enlightenment and Fortune Pill.
The Divine Connection Technique is in the Yuan Pavilion. If the Traceless Sect has the ability, you can go and exchange for it.
But if you want to get it from me, you have made the wrong decision. "
"I was rude!"
Yin Bancheng sighed and gave up on the idea of getting the Divine Connection Technique from Qin Shujian.
Although he had already deduced most of the Traceless Sect's legacy techniques.
But if he could verify them with the Divine Connection Technique, the speed would undoubtedly be much faster and it would also save him some detours.
But —
Looking at Qin Shujian's current stance, this path was obviously not going to work.
Next, he wanted to get the Divine Connection Technique.
He could either exchange for it through the Yuan Pavilion or slowly deduce it himself.
Not long after.
Yin Bancheng got up and said goodbye.
Qin Shujian had only promised him one thing about the Revival Fortune Pill, and that was that he would get it within three years.
But the specific time would have to depend on the situation.
After sending Yin Bancheng away.
Qin Shujian didn't even have time to catch his breath before someone else came to visit.
In the same courtyard.
The difference was that the person sitting opposite him was no longer Yin Bancheng.
"Sect Master Qin, please save me!"
Looking at Wu Lang, who had just sat down and revealed a mournful expression, Qin Shujian was a little speechless. "… Esteemed envoy, let's talk nicely."
He immediately asked for help.
To be honest, this was the first time he had met such a person.
At this time, after seeing Qin Shujian, Wu Lang seemed to have seen his savior.
Especially when he learned that Qin Shujian had broken through to the Celestial Realm, his first reaction was not shock but surprise.
He had broken through to the Celestial Realm and was also an Array Grandmaster.
With the combination of the two.
Qin Shujian's strength was more than a level higher than the average expert who had just entered the Celestial Realm.
For Wu Lang.
The stronger Qin Shujian was, the better. It would be better if he broke through to the Almighty Realm on the spot. That would be more appropriate.
Of course.
He only thought about this in his heart and did not say it out loud.
"Sect Master Qin, you may not know this, but now that all the feudal lords have rebelled and the Central State Prefecture is surrounded by the army, the imperial court is at the end of its rope. Without external help, I'm afraid that the empire that has been established for thousands of years will have to surrender."
Wu Lang's face was full of sorrow and his expression was as ugly as it could be.
Over the past few days in Liang Shan City, the bad news in the Central State Prefecture had been coming one after another.
It even gave him the feeling that the imperial court would be destroyed at any time.
Even though he was not in the Central State Prefecture now, he still felt a great deal of pressure.
"What do you mean, Brother Wu?" Qin Shujian frowned and said with a puzzled expression, "I've just broken through to the Celestial Realm. Although Yuan Zong's strength is not bad, it's not worth mentioning in front of the imperial court.
I'm afraid that with or without me, it won't change anything. "
"Sigh, now that we have more help, the imperial court will have a better chance of winning. Although Qin Shujian has just broken through to the Celestial Realm, he's also a Formation Grandmaster. If he's willing to help, he can provide a lot of help."
"I'm afraid that I'll have to disappoint you, Brother Wu."
Qin Shujian rejected him without hesitation.
Now that the imperial court and the rebels were like fire and water, if they did not have the strength to intervene, they would be torn to pieces in an instant.
After breaking through to the Celestial Realm, he believed that his strength was enough to be ranked among the top.
However, there were also high and low ranks among the Celestial Realm.
Qin Shujian would definitely not believe that there were no powerful figures involved in this war.
Wu Lang had already expected this.
Wu Lang had already expected this. When Qin Shujian rejected the offer, he immediately said, "Sect Master Qin, don't be in a hurry to reject it. Since the imperial court has invited you to take action, the reward will definitely not be low."
As he spoke, he looked at Qin Shujian's expression and continued.
"In order to show their sincerity, the imperial court is willing to give you a Divine Martial Arts, a second realm Formation Grandmaster's comprehension, and 50 Spirit Stones."
"And this time, Sect Master Qin has killed 237 demons, a total of 48 Spirit Stones."
"The imperial court will also directly give you a round number, plus the reward for helping, a total of 100 Spirit Stones. I wonder what Sect Master Qin thinks!"
A Divine Martial Arts.
A second realm Formation Grandmaster's comprehension.
100 Spirit Stones.
The bountiful rewards from the imperial court shook Qin Shujian to the core. He was about to reject the offer, but he hesitated instead.
The value of the Divine Martial Arts was needless to say.
Although it could not be compared with the Divine Martial Arts, it was still priceless. If he threw it out, it would be enough to make the major sects of the big regions scramble for it.
As for the second realm Formation Grandmaster's comprehension.
To be honest.
With the opportunity to improve his source of life, this thing was not very useful to him.
However.
The value of this thing could not be ignored.
It could also be seen that the imperial court did have a second realm Grandmaster.
The last 100 Spirit Stones were even more irresistible.
As for the number of demons that Wu Lang said he had killed, Qin Shujian also understood what was going on.
The number of demons that really died in his hands was naturally more than this number. What Wu Lang said was the number of demons he had killed before the imperial court terminated the deal.
For a moment.
Qin Shujian fell silent.
Wu Lang, who was sitting on the side, did not persuade him anymore.
He had already given the imperial court the best conditions that they could give. The rest was up to the other party's choice.
If the other party was determined to refuse.
Wu Lang had no other way.
But in his opinion, the possibility of Qin Shujian refusing was not high.
Time passed little by little.
After a long time.
He looked at Wu Lang and said in a deep voice, "I can help, but there are two conditions that the imperial court must agree to. Otherwise, Brother Wu, please go back!"
"Please speak, Sect Master Qin."
Qin Shujian stretched out two fingers and said, "First, I will only help if it is within my power. If it is not, it is impossible for me to be buried with the imperial court."
"Second, I need to get the thing first."
"If the imperial court can agree to these two conditions, then I will have no objections. If the imperial court is not willing, then I will not force it."
