Chengwu Hall.
"Elder Zheng, when will Sect Master Qin come back?"
"Sect Master left so suddenly that I'm not sure."
Zheng Fang replied helplessly.
As soon as Qin Shujian chased him away, the elder from the Imperial Astronomer came.
Regarding this.
He felt helpless.
It was not appropriate to chase him away.
A few days passed.
Su Zhan came on time almost every day and asked the same question. Zheng Fang was also in a terrible fix.
"The battle here has just ended. Why did Sect Master Qin run out again? If the God Clan and the Demon Clan find out, wouldn't it be troublesome?"
Su Zhan was speechless.
He thought that after the battle, Qin Shujian would stay in Yuan Sect at ease.
Therefore.
Su Zhan did not come over immediately. Instead, he waited for his injuries to recover before he left.
As soon as he arrived.
He received the news that Qin Shujian had left.
Su Zhan suddenly felt frustrated.
If possible, he did not want to look for Qin Shujian. After all, he had just troubled him and now he had to come over to ask for help. The elder from the Imperial Astronomer also wanted to save face.
However.
If Qin Shujian did not help him, Su Zhan was not confident that he could settle this matter alone.
Zheng Fang said, "Sect Master has his own ideas now and it is not something we can interfere with. In my opinion, Elder Su, why don't you go back first? When Sect Master comes back, I will send someone to inform you."
"No need. I will wait for him in Liang Shan City. It will be troublesome if I go back to Zhongzhou. It will waste a lot of time going back and forth."
Su Zhan waved his hand and said.
It was impossible for him to go back.
What if Qin Shujian came back and ran away? How could he find him?
The Human Emperor did not give him much time.
It was urgent to refine the Human Clan Monument.
Su Zhan's mood was also quite anxious.
But there was no other way.
Without Qin Shujian, he was not confident that he could refine the Human Clan Monument alone.
After all, the Human Clan Monument.
It was not something simple.
Even if there was no innate embryo, he had to refine a top spiritual weapon comparable to a Dao weapon.
Su Zhan was confident that he could refine a superior-grade spiritual weapon.
But he was not qualified to refine a top spiritual weapon.
Therefore …
In the end, he still asked Qin Shujian for help.
Regarding this, Su Zhan was also somewhat embarrassed.
He was an elder of the Imperial Astronomer, yet he was incapable of doing anything. Every time he needed to forge an artifact, he had to beg others.
However …
Compared to before, Su Zhan was more used to it now.
If he needed help, so be it.
Since his skills were inferior, he had to admit it.
Hearing this, Zheng Fang could only nod. "That's good too. I will inform Elder Su as soon as the Sect Master returns."
"Thanks a lot!"
Su Zhan stood up, cupped his hands together, and bid farewell.
In terms of status and strength.
Zheng Fang was much weaker than him, but Su Zhan still had to give him some face because the other party was Yuan Sect's Great Elder.
Now, Qin Shujian was known as the second strongest human being.
This title.
This was publicly acknowledged.
It was also because of this that the Yuan Sect had Qin Shujian. Although it was only a sect in the world of cultivation, in the eyes of many court officials, it was an existence that could not be offended.
Su Zhan had just stood up and left.
Zheng Fang's communication jade talisman vibrated.
Immediately after.
He read the information inside and called out to Su Zhan.
"The Sect Master has arrived in Cold Mountain City."
— —
In the courtyard.
The two sat on the left and right.
Qin Shujian poured a cup of tea for the other party and said with a faint smile, "I thought it would take a while before I have the chance to see Elder Su. I didn't expect you to come so soon."
"Sect Master Qin already knows why I'm here?"
"If I'm not wrong, it should be about the Human Clan's Monument!"
Qin Shujian's expression was calm, as if he had already seen through Su Zhan's heart.
One would not visit a temple without a cause.
Su Zhan came at this time in such a hurry. Other than the Human Clan's Monument, he really could not think of any other reason.
Hearing this.
Su Zhan laughed, slightly hiding his embarrassment, then nodded and said, "Sect Master Qin is wise. This old man is indeed here for the Human Clan's Monument."
At the mention of the Human Clan's Monument.
Su Zhan's expression was also solemn as he said, "Sect Master Qin should know that the Human Clan's Monument is of great importance and absolutely cannot be sloppy. I'm also a Grandmaster Forger, but in terms of means, I'm not as good as Sect Master Qin.
This time, if Qin Shujian does not take action. I'm also in a lot of trouble. "
"Refining the Human Clan's Monument is fine."
Qin Shujian didn't refuse. However, when he agreed, he suddenly changed the topic of conversation.
"However, Pavilion Elder Su should know that there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. The reason I refined the four city gates was because I helped out as a human. Afterwards, in the war with the other races, I asked myself if I had contributed a great deal.
What benefits can the Imperial Court give me this time to refine the Human Clan's Monument? "
Qin Shujian had never thought of working for the Imperial Court for free.
Although in the big picture, the current situation was still for the sake of the entire Human Clan.
However.
Even if the three continents were conquered, the Imperial Court and the Human Emperor were the ones who really ruled the world.
This time, he opened the Heaven and Earth Restriction.
It was also because the Human Emperor wanted to break through to the Perfected Immortal Realm that he did this.
Strictly speaking.
The Imperial Court was the leader of the Human Clan, and the majority of the benefits were taken by the Imperial Court alone.
Qin Shujian was a member of the Human Clan.
But he was not a member of the Imperial Court.
Working for the Imperial Court for free was something that the people of the Imperial Court should do, but it had nothing to do with him.
There were some things.
He needed to make it clear on the surface.
Or else …
Qin Shujian did not have so much free time if the Imperial Court ordered him to do anything.
Su Zhan said in a deep voice, "What do you need, Sect Master Qin?"
"I heard that killing the alien experts this time can be rewarded according to their merits. I wonder what rewards I can get?"
Qin Shujian did not answer but asked a question instead.
He was really concerned about this matter.
Su Zhan was choked by Qin Shujian's strange way of thinking, and then he came back to his senses. "I'm not responsible for the rewards, so there hasn't been any leak. But with your achievements, I think there will be a lot of benefits."
"Then please tell the Human Emperor that it's best to change all the rewards into Spirit Stones, or the blood essence of some experts above the ninth level of the Celestial Being, or the corpses of ancient Perfected Immortals.
Anyway, the more these things the better. I'm not picky. "
Qin Shujian said.
Hearing that.
Su Zhan was powerless to complain in his heart.
The blood essence of experts above the ninth level of the Celestial Being was fine, but the corpses of ancient Perfected Immortals were really daring.
Even he himself.
He had never imagined the corpses of ancient Perfected Immortals.
Not to mention whether the Imperial Court had them or not.
Even if they did, it was impossible for them to take them out.
One could figure it out with their brains.
How important was the corpses of ancient Perfected Immortals?
To this.
Su Zhan could only reply perfunctorily, "I'll pass on Sect Master Qin's words to His Majesty, but I can't guarantee the specific situation."
"I naturally believe in Elder Su. This time, I can refine the Human Race Monument. If it's a top Spirit Weapon, it will cost a hundred Spirit Stones. If it's a Dao Artifact, a four-seal Dao Artifact will cost a hundred Spirit Stones.
In the future, for each seal, the Spirit Stones will double. All the materials will be provided by the Imperial Court, and I won't be responsible for failure. "Qin Shujian stated his conditions.
With Yuan Zong's current power.
There was nothing to be lacking.
Apart from Spirit Stones and the corpses of experts, there was nothing else.
As for the top materials.
To be honest.
It was not difficult for Yuan Zong to collect them.
Su Zhan nodded and said, "According to His Majesty, the Human Race Monument this time should be a top Spirit Weapon."
"Well, then I'll refine the Human Race Monument with a hundred Spirit Stones as the price."
"Okay."
Su Zhan nodded in agreement.
A hundred Spirit Stones were expensive.
But it was not that the Imperial Court could not afford it.
The Imperial Court had inherited the foundation of the Human Race for hundreds of thousands of years. Only the Human Emperor himself knew how many things had been accumulated over the years.
Such a rich foundation.
A hundred Spirit Stones was just a small matter.
Just as Su Zhan was about to get up and leave, Qin Shujian suddenly thought of something and called out to him.
"Elder Su, wait a minute!"
Su Zhan stopped in his tracks and turned around to look at Qin Shujian in confusion. "Sect Master Qin, is there anything else?"
"Help me pass a message to the Human Emperor. I want a fragment of the Heavenly Mirror or a fragment of the Immortal Ranking of Ten Thousand Races. If there is one, I can waive the hundred Spirit Stones and even the reward for killing the experts of foreign races."
"Okay."
Although Su Zhan was puzzled, he still nodded and agreed.
He knew about the Heavenly Mirror.
It was a supreme treasure of the Ancient Heavenly Court, which was now guarding the passage to prevent outsiders from sneaking into the Eastern Continent.
But the Immortal Ranking of Ten Thousand Races.
Su Zhan had never heard of it.
In front of Qin Shujian, there seemed to be a lot of things that he didn't know. It was as if the other party was an old antique who had lived for thousands of years, and he was more like a newbie who had just stepped into the cultivation world.
The difference.
It made Su Zhan feel a little tired.
After Su Zhan left, Qin Shujian looked away again.
"You want to use the fragment of the Immortal Ranking of Ten Thousand Races to recreate the supreme treasure of the Ancient Heavenly Court?"
Godslayer's voice sounded in his mind.
Qin Shujian shook his head and said, "The Immortal Ranking of Ten Thousand Races is a nine-seal Dao Artifact after all. Even a fragment must have all kinds of magic. It's naturally a good thing to be able to obtain it.
I plan to refine the Heaven Roll to rank the experts of the Origin Sect. If it can be integrated into the Immortal Ranking of Ten Thousand Races, it will definitely be more perfect. "
As the carrier of the Origin Sect's providence.
If he wanted to refine it, he couldn't do it casually.
In order to refine the Heaven Roll.
For this reason, Qin Shujian even went to the Western Continent and personally took two drops of Ling Huang's essence blood.
If it could be integrated into the Immortal Ranking of Ten Thousand Races or the fragment of the Heavenly Mirror, the Heaven Roll would definitely be even more terrifying.
Afterward.
Qin Shujian said, "Senior, do you know how to make a Dao Artifact give birth to a strong enough spiritual intelligence? For example, I found that the Origin Sect has many Dao Artifacts and Spirit Artifacts.
However, I don't think I've ever seen one with spiritual intelligence like the Heaven Roll. "
He thought of the Heaven Roll.
If the Dao Artifacts of the Origin Sect all had spiritual intelligence, their power would increase a lot.
After all, they were both Dao Artifacts.
One had brains and the other didn't.
It was obvious who was stronger.
At the mention of the Qiankun Bow, the God-Slaying Saber pondered for a moment before slowly saying, "That Dao Artifact of yours is quite mystical. If I'm not wrong, it should have been when an expert fell and his scattered Divine Sense fused into his body, causing such a transformation.
Unlike living beings, whether it's a Spirit Artifact or a Dao Artifact, although it can have spirituality, it's not something that can be achieved by simply increasing its level.
It requires the accumulation of endless years and various fortuitous encounters. "
The scattered Spirit Sense of an expert!
Qin Shujian's face turned serious. This was the first time he had heard of this.
Soon.
Qin Shujian thought of the Godslayer again and said, "Then why can Zu Bing have spiritual intelligence and wisdom?"
"It's very simple. Faith!"
"Faith!?"
"That's right. The reason why Zu Bing can unlock wisdom is because of faith!" The Godslayer said in a solemn tone, "Don't underestimate the power of faith. It's the most mysterious thing that can be born from living beings in the world.
Once any being is tainted with the power of faith, they can have all kinds of miracles. "
"Then can the power of faith be used for cultivation?"
Qin Shujian thought of the Gods that he had learned about in his previous life.
Relying on the faith of all living beings, they had extraordinary power.
Hearing this.
The Godslayer was silent for a while and said slowly, "I don't know why you have such an idea, but I can tell you clearly that don't use faith to cultivate.
Because the faith of all living beings is not pure and contains many heterogeneous things.
In ancient times, there were experts who wanted to use the power of faith to cultivate. In the end, the faith of all living beings destroyed the spirit of the cultivator, turning the cultivator into a walking corpse.
Or simply, the power of many beliefs fused into a distorted personality, causing the cultivator to completely lose his nature.
No matter which one it is, the self will no longer be the self, so you must not use faith to cultivate. Otherwise, you will be digging your own grave. "
When Qin Shujian mentioned faith.
The Godslayer was really a little worried.
After all, the more talented a person was, the more they would have their own opinions and adhere to their own opinions.
In this case.
If Qin Shujian really used the power of faith to cultivate, it would be troublesome.
Qin Shujian said with a faint smile, "Senior, don't worry. I'm just asking casually."
"It better be so!"
The Godslayer sighed.
Hearing this, Qin Shujian also paid more attention to the existence of faith in his heart.
Judging from the Godslayer's solemn tone.
Faith was like a highly toxic poison to cultivators that couldn't be touched.
But for Divine Weapons.
Faith was extremely useful.
"Could it be that the Divine Weapons themselves don't have a personality, and the so-called personality is the original empty shell of the Divine Weapon after condensing the power of faith, so the two don't conflict?"
A thought suddenly came to Qin Shujian's mind.
In his opinion.
The truth should be more or less like this.
The Godslayer said, "If it's about giving birth to spiritual wisdom or even wisdom, I think the saber on your body is somewhat possible. After all, you have people worship it, and the power of faith is already condensing.
Even if the condensation process is very slow, it should take about 800 to 800 years. "
He was more optimistic about Qian Shanxue.
Although this Taoist artifact only had four seals.
But judging from the way Qin Shujian cultivated it, it still had a lot of potential.
In fact, the Godslayer didn't need to say anything.
Qin Shujian could also feel that there was a mysterious power lingering behind Qian Shanxue.
That power was very weak, but it was very pure.
At first, he didn't notice anything.
It wasn't until his strength improved rapidly recently that he could vaguely sense something.
If he guessed correctly.
That was the power of faith.
In the next few days, Qin Shujian stayed in the sect and didn't have any extra work.
On the other side.
The Demon Clan's bounty also officially spread in the Western Prefecture.
As the overlord of the Western Prefecture.
The Demon Clan still had a lot of say.
Originally, during this period of time, many humans had already entered the Western Prefecture. But as the news spread, the humans in the Western Prefecture immediately suffered heavy casualties.
Although the humans were very strong.
Compared to the Demon Clan that had been operating in the Western Prefecture for hundreds of thousands of years, they were still a lot weaker.
And now, all the major clans were jointly resisting the humans.
As a result, the human forces could only be stationed 100,000 miles away from the entrance of the passage. They had no chance to go deep into the Western Prefecture.
In addition, the Demon Clan's bounty was extremely generous.
So.
In the face of this bounty.
The various forces didn't have much resistance. They all obeyed the Demon Clan's orders and assassinated the humans.
For them.
They weren't afraid of offending the humans because of this.
After all, they had killed so many human forces. Who would be afraid of who?
Besides, the Human Emperor was injured and could only stay in the territory of the human race. Excluding the Human Emperor, there were not many human experts who could make the Human Emperor fear them.
As a result.
The deterrence of the humans was even weaker.
As for the humans leaving the Eastern Continent, these forces weren't afraid at all.
Because there were too many forces that wanted to deal with the Human Emperor.
The Demon Clan, God Clan, and other forces.
They wouldn't let the Human Emperor walk out so easily.
Therefore.
The Demon Clan's bounty was not difficult to stop at all.
In addition to that.
The news about Marquis Beiyun's bounty also spread to the Eastern Continent.
After receiving this news, Qin Shujian had a strange expression on his face. "A bounty for Marquis Beiyun? No way!"
He really didn't expect it.
The Demon Clan would offer a bounty for Marquis Beiyun because they wanted to seize Zu Bing from him.
As for the Demon Clan's reward.
Qin Shujian glanced at it and scoffed.
Immortal Ascension!
This was enough to fool a fool. The Demon Emperor hadn't even become an immortal himself. What right did he have to make others become immortals?
However, there might really be fools who would believe it.
After all, among the billions of humans.
If there weren't a few idiots, they would think that they were living in a peaceful world.
However, what surprised Qin Shujian was that.
Marquis Beiyun had Zu Bing, and he also had Zu Bing. In the end, the Demon Clan didn't offer a bounty for him, but only for Marquis Beiyun. This was a little thought-provoking.
"The Demon Clan thinks that I'm not easy to bully, so they want to bully Marquis Beiyun!"
"Tsk tsk!"
Thinking of this, Qin Shujian clicked his tongue in wonder.
It turned out that the Marquis Beiyun, who was so powerful in his eyes, was inferior to him in the eyes of the Demon Clan.
They would pick the soft persimmons.
Obviously.
In front of him and Marquis Beiyun, the Demon Clan thought that Marquis Beiyun was easier to bully.
For some reason.
Qin Shujian was a little happy.
Looking at the smile on his face, Xu Yuanming and Zheng Fang both had strange looks on their faces.
'Are you that happy that Marquis Beiyun has a bounty on him?'
"Ahem!"
Xu Yuanming coughed and asked Qin Shujian to pay attention to his words. Then, he said, "Sect Master, what does the Demon Clan mean by this bounty? Are they trying to take this opportunity to divide the Human Clan?"
"Isn't it obvious?"
Qin Shujian's smile faded a little as he said indifferently.
Zheng Fang said in a deep voice, "Marquis Beiyun is a rare almighty figure in the imperial court. This bounty is useless at all. The Demon Clan is just trying to disgust the Human Clan."
In his opinion.
This bounty was useless at all.
Not to mention that Marquis Beiyun was extremely powerful and there weren't many people who could deal with him, the Demon Clan didn't have much credibility.
Qin Shujian said calmly, "What's the big deal? Anyway, anyone can make empty promises. But it's not surprising that there are a few idiots among the billions of humans. Maybe someone really wants to assassinate Marquis Beiyun.
As long as they can create internal strife for the Human Clan, everything else is a small problem. "
Idiots!
Xu Yuanming laughed. "Sect Master, your description is really apt."
He thought for a moment.
Maybe there really was someone who would assassinate Marquis Beiyun for the illusory bounty of the Demon Clan.
However.
Zheng Fang's face was a little solemn as he said, "This time, the Demon Clan has also put a bounty on Marquis Beiyun and the Human Clan. I heard that the other major clans have followed suit. Many Human Clan cultivators who entered the three continents have been besieged and killed.
Even our sect has lost a lot of disciples.
If the various clans resist the Human Clan like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to take root in the three continents. "
The Demon Clan decided.
It didn't just affect the Western Continent.
The Blood Eldar of the God Clan and the others also followed suit.
Just like the Demon Clan, which was an overlord of the Western Continent, the other two clans were also overlords of the other two continents.
In the face of such a bounty.
The various clans were not related to the Human Clan. No one would go against these top clans for the sake of the Human Clan.
Qin Shujian's smile faded a little, and he said indifferently, "The other clans can put a bounty on Marquis Beiyun, and so can we. In terms of foundation, the Human Clan is not inferior to them.
Don't forget, the biggest problem in the three continents is not the various clans, but the Variant Humans of the three continents.
Since the Demon Clan wants to play, we'll play with them. Haven't we already set up a Yuan Ge branch in the Eastern City? Then we'll post missions in the Eastern City, whether it's Divine Connection cultivation methods or Divine Connection martial arts.
As long as the Variant Humans want it, they will have a chance to get it. "
"In addition …"
At this point, Qin Shujian paused.
"Find out which forces in the three continents are opposing the Demon Clan, the Blood Eldar, and the God Clan, and what their strength is like. If possible, we may be able to find a way to cut into the three continents from these forces."
Zheng Fang nodded and said, "This matter will take some time. I'll get someone to check it out as soon as possible."
"By the way, do you know what the three continents lack the most?" Qin Shujian suddenly had an idea in his mind, and he asked.
What did they lack?
This sudden question made the two of them look at each other.
"What do you mean, Sect Master?"
"Is there anything that the Eastern Continent has that the three continents don't, or even lack?"
