Anyway, he wasn't the one paying the spirit stones.
Although Marquis Beiyun was in charge of Beiyun Mansion, it actually belonged to the imperial court.
Killing the demons.
That was the imperial court's business.
If there were any expenses during this period, it would naturally be paid by the imperial court.
What Marquis Beiyun had to do was to report the matter truthfully.
It was no big deal.
Beiyun Mansion would pay the 300 spirit stones first, and then the imperial court would pay.
If Qin Shujian hadn't used the power of the array, Marquis Beiyun wouldn't have been able to kill the Bloodfire Demon God so quickly and so easily.
No matter what.
It was also an expert at the ninth level of the Heaven Realm.
No matter how weak it was, it couldn't be killed with a wave of the hand.
The imperial court had a lot of business. Although 300 spirit stones was a lot, it wasn't a big problem for the imperial court to take it out.
Moreover.
Marquis Beiyun was sure that the Human Emperor must have received the legacy of the Heavenly Court.
Not all the treasures of the Ancient Heavenly Court fell into the hands of the Human Emperor, but he also benefited a lot.
A few hundred spirit stones.
That was just a small matter.
After returning to the Marquis Beiyun's residence, Marquis Beiyun immediately took out 305 Spiritual Stones from the storeroom and handed them to Qin Shujian.
"Sect Master Qin, here are 305 spirit stones. You can count them."
"No need. I still trust Marquis Beiyun."
Qin Shujian looked at the spirit stones on the table and put them into his Storage Ring with a smile.
This time, he didn't get any profit from cleaning up the remaining demons in Beiyun Mansion. He was just going through the motions with Marquis Beiyun.
Marquis Beiyun said, "Sect Master Qin has contributed a lot to cleaning up the demons in Beiyun Mansion. If you need my help in the future, just let me know. I will definitely help if I can."
"With Marquis Beiyun's words, this trip was not in vain."
Qin Shujian cupped his hands and said.
Looking at the Marquis of North Cloud, he suddenly changed the topic and said, "I have something that I would like to trouble you with."
"What's the matter?"
"I want to experience the means of a mighty figure!" Qin Shujian said word by word.
The Marquis of Northern Cloud's expression turned solemn.
He looked at Qin Shujian's expression and wanted to see if he was serious or just joking.
After a while.
Marquis Beiyun said, "Your foundation is very strong. Although you are only at the first tier of the Celestial Being Realm, I can feel that the power contained in your body is not weaker than the second or third tier of the Celestial Being Realm."
"However, you must understand that regardless of whether it is the second or third layer of the Celestial Human realm, strictly speaking, they are only at the Transcendent realm."
"After Transcendence is Sainthood. Above Sainthood is Almighty."
He was telling Qin Shujian.
Even if it was a Transcendent at the pinnacle, in front of a Mighty Being, he could still be destroyed with a wave of his hand.
Qin Shujian said seriously, "Ever since I broke through to the Celestial Being Realm, I've fought with Du Chengwu and Shen Hong. Du Chengwu's peak strength is very strong, and I'm not his opponent even with the help of the array formation.
However, I didn't get to experience too much during that battle. Later, when I fought with Du Chengwu, he was seriously injured and was killed by me in the end. "
"I've already experienced the strength of the Transcendence and Sainthood experts, but to be honest, I want to broaden my horizons with the Almighty!"
When the Human Emperor condensed the Heavenly Court, he had once transformed into the Heavenly Court's Divine General and obtained power that far exceeded his own.
But at that time …
Qin Shujian didn't have time to give him too much insight.
He didn't know how strong or weak that force was compared to the Almighty.
The three continents were about to open.
Qin Shujian was sure that there must be Almighty in the other three continents.
Sooner or later, he would also encounter such a strong expert.
When that time came …
If he was no match for him, he would only be defeated.
Therefore …
Qin Shujian now wanted to experience the strength of Marquis Beiyun. It was also a good opportunity to understand the gap between him and the Almighty and whether it was really to the extent that he couldn't make up for it.
If it was, then he had to be prepared to encounter such a strong expert in the future.
His gaze fell on Qin Shujian for a long time.
Marquis Beiyun finally nodded and said calmly, "If you insist, then I'll fulfill your wish."
"Thank you, Marquis Beiyun."
"Let's go. It's too noisy when the Almighty attacks. Let's go outside and find a suitable place." Marquis Beiyun stood up and walked outside.
Qin Shujian also stood up and left behind him.
The two of them left the city without notifying anyone.
However, when the stream of light streaked across the sky above Zong Yang City, the people who sensed it were puzzled.
Marquis Beiyun left Zong Yang City again.
In the past, when Marquis Beiyun stayed in Zong Yang City, he might not even take a step out of the city for a few years. But now, he left the city one after another, which made many people surprised and puzzled.
"Marquis Beiyun left the city again!"
"The last time Marquis Beiyun left the city, he wiped out all the demons in the Beiyun Mansion. Why did he leave the city this time?"
"I don't know. The one who left with Marquis Beiyun should be Qin Shujian!"
Many experts were whispering to each other with their Divine Wills.
In the Beiyun Mansion, apart from Marquis Beiyun, Qin Shujian was the only one who could ignore the Sealing Array of Zong Yang City.
The others.
They couldn't do that.
After leaving Zong Yang City, Qin Shujian saw the hideous head that was abandoned outside the city.
Even now, the head was still filled with thoughts that didn't disperse, and blood was still seeping out of the wound.
It was the head of a Heavenly Human Demon!
Qin Shujian immediately confirmed the identity of the head.
In the past, Marquis Beiyun went deep into the Skyend Mountain Range and killed a Heavenly Human Demon with lightning speed. He even threw the Heavenly Human Demon's head outside Zong Yang City, which shocked all the demon clans in the world.
According to the Law of Heaven and Earth, experts who were killed would usually return to Heaven and Earth.
Now that the Heavenly Human Demon's head was abandoned here, it meant that the head was Marquis Beiyun's trophy.
A Heavenly Human Demon.
Even if he was dead, he still had power and influence.
An expert who had reached this stage was already very terrifying.
Looking at the neat and smooth cut on the head, Qin Shujian felt a terrifying saber Qi from it.
"This Heavenly Human Demon was killed by a single saber strike!"
Qin Shujian thought to himself.
If he remembered correctly, Marquis Beiyun had a bronze saber, which was a six-seal Dao Artifact.
It was the Dao Artifact of Beiyun Mansion.
After glancing at the head of the Great Demon, Qin Shujian followed behind Marquis Beiyun. It didn't take long for them to appear in the wilderness.
The two of them stood in the air, facing each other, less than 30 feet away.
"Make your move!"
Marquis Beiyun said calmly with his hands behind his back.
Qin Shujian didn't hesitate. A powerful force was being nurtured in his body. "In that case, I'll make my move!"
As soon as he finished speaking.
397 acupoints vibrated at the same time. Blood flowed like a river of stars, and a terrifying force instantly erupted.
At this moment, Qin Shujian no longer looked like a human. Instead, he looked more like a terrifying beast in human form.
Boom!
Qin Shujian took a step forward. The void distorted and vibrated. He struck out with a finger, and the sound of wind and thunder was heard. The finger energy shattered the air.
Marquis Beiyun looked calm. When the finger energy was three feet away from him, a gust of energy appeared out of nowhere and directly blocked Qin Shujian's attack.
The two collided, and a powerful fluctuation erupted.
When the finger energy was destroyed, the energy shield also shook a few times.
"It's quite powerful." Marquis Beiyun nodded. Then, he struck out with his palm. The palm energy turned into a thousand feet in size. It sealed the surrounding heaven and earth and pressed down on Qin Shujian.
It was a palm strike.
He didn't use any martial arts. He only used the strength of an Almighty to strike out with the simplest palm strike.
But that was it.
Even Qin Shujian felt a terrifying sense of threat.
Before the palm energy arrived, the Qi and blood in his body were already vibrating violently.
"An Almighty!"
Qin Shujian took a deep breath. In the face of such an attack, the most appropriate thing to do was to retreat.
However …
This sparring session was to understand the gap between himself and an Almighty.
If he retreated, the sparring session would be meaningless.
Therefore, Qin Shujian didn't retreat. Instead, he went forward and blasted out the Great Desolate Devil Suppression Seal. It instantly collided with the palm energy. Boom!
Boom!
Qin Shujian's body faintly cracked. He coughed up blood and retreated.
At this moment, his eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
Logically speaking …
At that moment, Qin Shujian had already lost.
However, he had asked for a sparring session. If he lost with a single palm strike, he would be utterly embarrassed.
Moreover, it was only until now.
Qin Shujian did not use all his strength.
"An Almighty is indeed powerful!
However, it's impossible for you to defeat me with a single move! "
Qin Shujian's aura was high. He took a step forward and raised his strength to the peak.
Astral Myriad Body!
The three hundred and ninety-seven star acupoints seemed to have turned into stars at this moment, and an illusory river of stars flowed through the void.
Great Desolate Devil Suppression Seal!
A seal was blasted out. The galaxy surged, and the star acupoints rioted.
In the face of this power, Marquis Beiyun's expression changed slightly.
He already knew that Qin Shujian's strength was not as simple as being at the first level of the Heaven Human Realm. Although Qin Shujian was at the first level, in terms of strength, he was definitely comparable to a second or third level expert.
However, the attack at this moment …
To be honest, it already had the power of a Saint.
Without drawing on the power of heaven and earth, this was the strength that a fourth level Heaven Human Realm expert could exert.
Although he was surprised by Qin Shujian's strength, Marquis Beiyun was still an Almighty.
However, Marquis Beiyun was an almighty expert after all. He stretched out his palm, and black energy spread out, turning into a long saber that slashed down.
The galaxy descended.
It shook the void and caused it to tremble.
However, when the black saber slashed out, it caused the void to shatter and vanish.
Boom!
Qin Shujian's expression was extremely solemn. The moment the Great Desolation Devil Subduing Seal was broken, the Heavenly Cloud God Sealing Finger also blasted out. The power of destruction and imprisonment wreaked havoc in the void, forcibly shattering the black longsword.
Then …
He disappeared on the spot. In the next breath, he appeared behind Marquis Beiyun and blasted out a punch.
Marquis Beiyun did not turn around. He just turned his elbow and collided violently with Qin Shujian's fist.
Bang! There was an explosion in the void.
The force of the rebound almost caused Qin Shujian's body to collapse.
But soon, under the surge of vast Qi and blood, the rebound of the physical body was forcibly suppressed. Then, another Great Wilderness Demon Suppression Seal was blasted out.
Although this martial art disappeared from the attribute panel, Qin Shujian firmly remembered it in his mind.
In terms of comprehension, even the creator of this martial art could only look at it in the dust.
However, although the Great Wilderness Demon Suppression Seal was strong, it was useless in front of Marquis Beiyun.
At this moment …
An invisible wave came from the void.
Marquis Beiyun frowned. His Divine Thought spread out from his body, and a vast domain suddenly descended.
When the domain descended, the long saber that had slashed at his Spirit Deity silently shattered. At the same time, Qin Shujian only felt boundless pressure surging from all directions, causing the vital energy and blood in his body to become stagnant.
That was not all.
Even the Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi in the surroundings was isolated at this moment.
"Domain!"
Although Qin Shujian had never experienced the power of a domain, after sensing the changes in the surroundings, he knew that he had fallen into Marquis Beiyun's domain.
As soon as he entered the domain …
It was equivalent to falling into the other party's palm.
Although he could not be crushed to death easily, his strength was also weakened a lot.
Boom! The black saber slashed out. Qin Shujian blasted out with his finger. The finger aura collided with the black saber, but it was destroyed in an instant.
At the same time …
The Dustless Celestial Robe shone brightly and finally shattered together with the black saber.
Seeing this …
Qin Shujian did not make any more moves.
When he stopped, the domain power that covered his body also disappeared. Marquis Beiyun took a step forward with his hands behind his back and landed on the ground.
"I've finally experienced the power of an Almighty today!"
Qin Shujian cupped his hands and said in admiration.
From the beginning to the end, he had been suppressed by Marquis Beiyun. The so-called counterattack was not worth mentioning at all in the eyes of the other party.
Such a gap in strength …
It made Qin Shujian feel a little uncomfortable.
Although he still had the second realm of the Grandmaster realm and the thirteenth grade golden lotus that he had not used, Marquis Beiyun had also held back.
Not to mention Zu Bing, the other party had not even used the Nine Steps of Immortal Ascension. The Dark Heaven of the Great Underworld, which could fight with the Fiendcelestial, also did not exert much power.
Even though Qin Shujian knew that there was a big gap between him and an Almighty.
But now that he had fought, he realized that the gap was no longer big.
Seriously speaking, this was the first time he had seen such a thing.
There was no comparison at all.
If Marquis Beiyun really wanted to kill him, it would definitely not take more than three moves. Even if he used the thirteenth grade golden lotus as a life-saving trump card, it would be the same.
This was a gap in strength that could not be made up for by simple external objects.
Marquis Beiyun comforted him, "Sect Master Qin's strength is not weak. Once the Almighty's domain is activated, unless it is an expert of the same level, it is almost impossible to resist.
In terms of real strength, Sect Master Qin is actually not much weaker than the fourth level of the Celestial Being.
In time, your strength will definitely become stronger. "
"Marquis Beiyun, you don't have to comfort me. Since I dared to ask for advice, I am also mentally prepared." Qin Shujian smiled and dispelled the haze in his heart.
That's right.
He was only at the first level of the Celestial Being realm now.
If he used all his means, it would not be a big problem for him to fight with experts of the Saint Realm, even if he could not match the Almighty.
However …
Although Qin Shujian was not discouraged, his fear of the Almighty had increased by several levels.
"If I don't step into the fourth level of the Celestial Being realm in the future, it's best to run away when I see the Almighty."
Qin Shujian made a rough estimation based on the exchange just now.
If he wanted to fight with the Almighty, he would have to at least break through to the fourth level of the Celestial Being realm.
If he was below the fourth level of the Celestial Being realm, he would have to stay as far away as possible.
After all, once the domain was activated, the Almighty would have too much of an advantage when fighting against cultivators below the Almighty level.
And even if he broke through to the fourth level of the Celestial Being realm …
Qin Shujian was only confident that he could fight, but it was not 100%.
This battle with Marquis Beiyun also gave him a more realistic understanding of the means of the Almighty.
"I have benefited a lot from Marquis Beiyun's guidance this time. There are still some things to deal with in the Liang Mountain Spirit Domain, so I'll take my leave first." Qin Shujian cupped his hands and said.
He had no intention of returning to Zong Yang City.
This time, he had exchanged pointers with Marquis Beiyun and had fulfilled one of his wishes.
As for the rest, it was more important to go back.
Marquis Beiyun did not stop him.
After the two of them left, other cultivators came here.
"That move just now is the Dark Sky of the Underworld. I saw Marquis Beiyun make a move more than ten years ago. It was this move that killed a great cultivator at the peak of the Divine Martial Arts Realm!"
"Who is Marquis Beiyun fighting with? Could it be that a strong enemy has invaded the Beiyun Mansion?"
"Hiss, this is the means of the Almighty. It's really powerful."
These experts who came looked at the fluctuations in the void that had not dissipated, and their faces changed drastically.
These people.
They were all cultivators of the Beiyun Mansion.
Those who had the guts to come here were all in the Divine Martial Arts Realm.
In the absence of the Celestial Being, the Divine Martial Arts Realm was the peak.
However, even such an expert was shocked when he sensed the energy fluctuations in the void that had not completely dissipated.
An old man sighed and said, "If I'm not wrong, the person who is fighting with Marquis Beiyun should be Qin Shujian!"
Not long after the two of them left Zong Yang City, a battle broke out here.
As long as one was not stupid, one could guess something.
Hearing that.
Many people's expressions changed slightly, but they soon understood.
It seemed that the only person in the Beiyun Mansion who could fight with Marquis Beiyun was Qin Shujian.
In this way.
The battle just now was not a life-and-death battle, but a simple exchange of pointers.
"The strength of the Celestial Being Realm is really shocking. I don't know if I'll have the chance to step into such a mysterious realm in my lifetime."
Someone sighed, then looked at a middle-aged man and said with a smile.
"Elder An, I heard that your sect's Supreme Elder is preparing to break through to the Celestial Being Realm. Is that true?"
After that.
Many people's gazes also landed on Elder An.
After Fang Xinglan successfully broke through to the Celestial Being Realm, the Traceless Sect also spread the news that Yin Bancheng was about to break through to the Celestial Being Realm. For this reason, they collected all kinds of treasures to prepare for the breakthrough.
If Yin Bancheng also succeeded in breaking through.
Then the Traceless Sect would officially join the ranks of the top sects.
There would also be a third Celestial Being Realm cultivator in the Beiyun Mansion.
An Peng said faintly, "Whether the news of the Supreme Elder's breakthrough is true or not, we'll know in a few days. Our sect has a good relationship with the Origin Sect. When the time comes, we might even invite experts from the Origin Sect to attend the ceremony."
He knew what these people were thinking.
Yin Bancheng's breakthrough was a situation that many forces did not want to see.
But An Peng was not afraid.
The strength of the Traceless Sect was not weak, and its thousands of years of heritage was not just for show.
In the Beiyun Mansion, there were only a few sects that could compete with the Traceless Sect.
As for the others, their eyes flickered when they heard this.
They could hear the warning in An Peng's words.
The Traceless Sect had a good relationship with the Origin Sect. When the time came, there might be experts from the Origin Sect coming to protect them.
The other party was just short of directly saying that Yin Bancheng's breakthrough was facilitated by the Origin Sect.
Anyone who wanted to stop Yin Bancheng's breakthrough had to consider whether it would anger the Origin Sect.
Looking at the expressions of the crowd.
An Peng also sneered in his heart.
From the beginning to the end, the Traceless Sect had never thought of hiding the news of Yin Bancheng's breakthrough.
This was because the breakthrough of a Heavenly Being would cause a phenomenon of heaven and earth, so it was impossible to hide it.
So …
Rather than hiding it and waiting for the breakthrough to be noticed, it was better to announce it openly and show the confidence of the Traceless Sect, making others feel apprehensive.
For this reason, the Traceless Sect also used the Origin Sect's tiger skin.
But these things …
The Traceless Sect had also privately greeted the Origin Sect.
They dared to do so because the other party did not object.
Otherwise, if they angered a top sect, the Traceless Sect would be in big trouble.
"When the Supreme Elder breaks through to the Heavenly Being Realm, the Traceless Sect will also have such an existence." An Peng looked at the raging power in the void, which seemed like it could easily tear him to pieces.
The gap between the Heavenly Being Realm and below was really too big.
If a Heavenly Being were to make a move, killing cultivators below the Heavenly Being Realm was just a matter of waving their hand.
However …
The Traceless Sect would soon have such an expert.
At that time, it would be the most prosperous time for the Traceless Sect in thousands of years.
However, An Peng still had some doubts in his heart, "Can the Supreme Elder really become so strong after breaking through?"
He was a little uncertain.
But soon, An Peng dispelled this thought.
"Everyone, when the Supreme Elder succeeds in breaking through, I hope you will not be stingy and come to the Traceless Sect for a gathering!" An Peng said loudly and immediately flew away.
Only the other cultivators were left standing there with gloomy expressions.
"An Peng is so arrogant. Could it be that the Traceless Sect wants to invite the entire Beiyun Mansion?"
"Hehe, if Yin Bancheng really succeeds in breaking through, then the Traceless Sect really has the confidence to do so."
Some people were dissatisfied with An Peng's attitude, but others were worried.
One more Heavenly Being would mean one more unforeseen event.
The emergence of the Origin Sect in the Beiyun Mansion had already damaged the interests of many sects.
If there was another top sect, the situation of the other sects would be even more difficult.
This was also the reason why.
The other mansions had always been dominated by one top sect.
This was because, although a mansion was big, it could not accommodate a second top sect.
Below the top sects, there were many sects of the Major Protectorate, the Spirit Protectorate, and the True Dominion.
If these sects wanted to survive, they could not do without the support of resources.
Someone sighed and said, "Yin Bancheng's breakthrough is unstoppable. Don't you see that the other sects of the Major Protectorate dare not speak up? What can we do?"
"I really don't know what Qin Shujian is thinking. How foolish of him to tolerate the emergence of a top sect at this time."
"Elder Liu, be careful with your words. If the Origin Sect hears about this, that person will be unhappy."
Upon hearing this, the complaining person immediately shut his mouth.
Qin Shujian was famous for being petty.
If the other party bore a grudge against him because of this, he would suffer a great loss.
