As for the bounty offered by the Demon Clan.
Marquis Beiyun didn't take it seriously from the beginning.
However …
He still underestimated the IQ of some people.
During this period of time …
There were frequent assassins who came to assassinate him, but they were all killed by the guards before they could take many steps in the Marquis Beiyun's mansion.
Regarding this …
Marquis Beiyun could only sigh. There were so many fools.
"Compared to Qin Shujian, I have become the easiest target in the eyes of the Demon Clan. Life is unpredictable!"
He could only sigh.
No one would have thought.
In a few years, Qin Shujian would grow to such an extent.
Marquis Beiyun couldn't help but think sometimes.
He was too useless.
Or Qin Shujian was really that monstrous.
In a few hundred years, he had gone from a beginner to a mighty figure. He was already considered a genius.
But compared to Qin Shujian …
Marquis Beiyun realized that his achievements seemed to be only average.
He thought of the first time he met Qin Shujian.
Marquis Beiyun couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. He said, "Do you think there were any human experts in ancient times who could improve as quickly as him?"
There was no one in the hall.
It was easy to imagine who he was asking.
In the sea of consciousness …
Stone Spear's voice sounded, "To be honest, unless he is the reincarnation of an ancient True Immortal, no matter how amazing he is, he can't reach this level in a few years.
Moreover, the Zu Bing in his hand is a Godslayer, one of the three great Zu Bing of the Human Clan in the past.
I guess he might be one of the ancient True Immortals. "
An ancient True Immortal of the Human Clan!
Marquis Beiyun was stunned.
"Senior, can you tell which True Immortal reincarnation he is?"
"It's hard to say. There were too many True Immortals of the Human Clan in ancient times. After all, the history of the Human Clan can be traced back to the birth of Heaven and Earth. No matter how long a True Immortal can live, he can only live for 129,600 years.
However, that period of time was not as short as a few hundred years or even a few million years.
There were too many True Immortals born in the Human Clan. Some might be waiting for an opportunity to cultivate again. "
Stone Spear said in a deep voice.
The foundation of the Human Clan was very strong.
It had given birth to many True Immortals as well.
Although there weren't many True Immortals in the same period, the number of True Immortals in the history of the human race was a bit excessive.
Marquis Beiyun was silent for a while.
Stone Spear continued, "But his previous life as a reincarnation of a True Immortal is not that important. After so many years, even if he was a reincarnation of a True Immortal, all that was left was his foundation.
As for the memories of a True Immortal, perhaps they have long been buried in the river of time. "
"In this era, the Human Tribe is facing a crisis of life and death. At first, I was not very sure. But now, after meeting Qin Shujian and the Human Emperor of the Human Tribe, I am sure."
"If we can't survive the Great Tribulation of the Devil Abyss this time, perhaps the Human Race will have no way out."
"I originally thought that you would be the one who would decide the survival of the Human Tribe, but now it seems that you are just one of them. Qin Shujian is one, the Human Emperor is another, and maybe there are more people.
After the ancient times, the Human Tribe went from prosperity to decline and was silent for 1,080,000 years. However, after reaching the peak of prosperity, there is bound to be a decline. After 1,080,000 years, the Human Tribe should return to its heyday.
Now that the Laws of Heaven and Earth have been perfected, the spirit energy of Heaven and Earth has been continuously strengthened after connecting with the three continents. Soon, more and more experts will be born in the Human Tribe, and maybe there will be True Immortals. "
In his sea of consciousness, Stone Spear was telling him little by little.
Marquis Beiyun listened silently again.
There were some things.
He didn't know as much as Stone Spear.
Or rather.
In fact, 90% of the things he knew came from Zu Bing.
Of course.
Marquis Beiyun's talent had nothing to do with Zu Bing.
Stone Spear chose him.
It was also because of his outstanding talent.
"In fact, you don't have to hide so much. The more amazing your talent is, the more you will be favored by the Human Tribe and even the providence of Heaven and Earth. This is the era of great competition for the Human Tribe.
If you don't fight for it, others will.
The providence of the Human Tribe and even the providence of Heaven and Earth is only so much. The more ordinary your performance is, the more amazing others' performance will be, and then the providence will tilt toward them.
If you don't want to disappear into the crowd, then you have to fight, snatch, and fight. No supreme expert can succeed by cultivating step by step. Over the years, you have hidden too much of your talent.
Sometimes, if you hide your talent for too long, it will either be earth-shattering when you cut it out, or it will completely rust and become useless. "
Stone Spear's calm words sounded in his sea of consciousness.
He had hidden his talent for too long!
Perhaps!
Marquis Beiyun let out a long breath and walked to the window to look at something.
All these years.
He had enough strength, but he had never shown it.
What was the exact reason?
Marquis Beiyun couldn't explain it clearly.
Perhaps he was worried that the Human Emperor would fail, that the Human Tribe would be completely conquered by the Demon Tribe, or that the Beiyun Mansion would fall into war.
There were too many concerns.
He didn't know when it started, but he had already become steady.
This steadiness was a good thing, but it was also a bad thing.
"Forget it!"
"Now that the Human Tribe has Xiao Chengfeng, it's not enough to change the overall situation. Since that's the case, there may be no need to hide."
Marquis Beiyun suddenly thought it through.
A relieved smile appeared on his face.
At the same time.
The laws of Heaven and Earth loomed.
A terrifying power covered the entire Zong Yang City.
— —
The Western Continent.
The Demon Tribe had been dominating here for hundreds of thousands of years and had accumulated power for a long time.
All these years.
The Demon Tribe was overbearing and had offended many clans and forces.
But because their strength was too tyrannical.
Many clans and forces were angry but didn't dare to say anything.
But for the players.
Whether the Demon Tribe was strong or not, it actually had nothing to do with them. They only cared about whether there were missions to do and whether there were benefits to be gained.
Now, the Human Tribe had issued a mission to reward the Demon Tribe.
For this.
The Eastern City even opened up the access to the players of the three continents.
Immediately.
Many players poured into the Eastern City.
"Damn, is this for real? The mission rewards are really so generous!"
"Channeling Power Technique, Level Nine Elixir Pills, is the so-called Yuan Pavilion so rich?"
All the players clicked their tongues in amazement when they saw the mission on the screen.
No matter where.
Channeling Power Technique and Level Nine Elixir Pills were irresistible temptations for these people.
Don't underestimate the vastness of the three great continents.
But in fact, these players weren't living that well.
Because the clans and forces of the three continents were very strong.
Correspondingly, the players were a little bit struggling.
The real big clans wouldn't recruit these players. Those weak clans that needed the support of the players didn't have many resources. Gradually, the cultivation resources that these players could get were actually much less than the players of the Eastern Continent.
This was also why.
When Yuan Zong issued the mission, so many players poured into the Eastern City.
Missions!
Rare goods!
The three continents were really too strong. The number of players in the three great worlds was also excessive.
Even if there were some missions.
It was completely not enough to share.
As a result.
It also caused the spiritual energy of the three continents to be richer than that of the Eastern Continent, but the strength of the players was not much different.
Hearing this.
Suddenly, a person who came to Yuan Pavilion to accept the mission said disdainfully, "Yuan Pavilion was established by Yuan Zong. Don't you know Yuan Zong's Sect Master? He is the second strongest person of the human clan, the best artificer of the human clan.
The East City under our feet was created by that Sect Master Qin.
Although it is a top spiritual artifact, it is not weaker than a four-seal Dao artifact. Let alone the Eastern Continent, I'm afraid that no one in the other continents can compare with such forging skills! "
"That's right. I can't guarantee the elixir, but there will definitely be no problem with the cultivation techniques and divine weapons."
The people around also nodded in agreement.
Qin Shujian, the second strongest person of the human clan, was also one of the faces of the human clan of the Eastern Continent.
This also led to Yuan Pavilion having a transcendent status.
At this time.
How could others have the right to question it?
Hearing this, the players of the three continents all gasped.
To be honest.
They really didn't know about this matter.
Although there was a bounty for the Monster Clan, God Clan, Blood Eldar, and other races from the human clan, these players only knew that the bounty came from the Eastern City, but they didn't know who was behind the mission.
But if it was Qin Shujian.
Then there was no problem.
Just as the humans of the Eastern Continent said.
The second strongest person of the human clan, the best artificer of the human clan.
Just these two titles alone were enough to make them a golden signboard.
Suddenly.
Players from the three continents wanted to accept the mission.
However, the deacon who issued the mission glanced at them and said lightly, "To accept the mission, you need to register your identity in Yuan Pavilion first. To do so, go over there and pay the corresponding fee."
After speaking, he gestured with his eyes to a place not far away.
There was a group of players who were going through the registration procedures.
In the inner hall of Yuan Pavilion.
Luo Xing was drinking tea with Xu Yuanming.
"Elder Xu, since the mission was issued, tens of thousands of players have come to register their identity. Based on the current trend, there will be a lot more in the future. If there is only one branch in the Eastern City now, I'm afraid it won't be able to operate."
Luo Xing said with a smile.
Now, he was both happy and worried.
The more people registered in the Yuan Pavilion branch, the better the performance would be, and he, as the Pavilion Master, would also receive corresponding benefits.
However.
The deacon was also a human. No matter how high a cultivator's cultivation base was, it was difficult to have countless clones.
The mission had just been issued for less than two days, and tens of thousands of people had come. There would definitely be more in the future.
The current small branch.
Obviously, it couldn't accommodate so many people.
Luo Xing had never thought that one day he would be worried about having too many people in Yuan Pavilion.
Xu Yuanming said with a faint smile, "Pavilion Master Luo, you don't have to worry. It won't be long before the main sect continues to open more branches of Yuan Pavilion here. But before that, Pavilion Master Luo can also get more benefits.
After all, capable people do more work. You can be the Pavilion Master of the Eastern City, which has already attracted the envy of many people.
You should know that the Eastern City is an important location for the human clan of the Eastern Continent to open up the other three continents. If you can manage it well, you may have a chance to compete for the position of the Chief Pavilion Master of a continent in the future. "
"It's all thanks to Elder Xu's guidance that I have such an opportunity!"
Luo Xing smiled warmly.
He was originally from Chuan Yun Village.
Strictly speaking, he was also one of Xu Yuanming's confidants.
Now, he was arranged to come to the Eastern City to be the Pavilion Master of the Eastern City Yuan Pavilion branch. Xu Yuanming was also involved in the operation.
Xu Yuanming said, "I'm giving you a chance because you have the ability. How's the information I asked you to find out now?"
"There are some clues."
Luo Xing thought for a while and said, "The Demon Clan of the Western Continent has been dominating for hundreds of thousands of years, but they have never really been able to monopolize a continent. In the final analysis, there are other clans that are against the Demon Clan.
As far as I know, there are three major clans in the Western Continent that are not on good terms with the Demon Clan. They are the Nine-headed Hound Clan, the Black Stone Condor Clan, and the Earthbound Dragons.
As for the Southern Continent and the Northern Continent, our people haven't infiltrated much, so there isn't much news for the time being. "
Xu Yuanming nodded slightly.
The resources of a continent.
How could they let the Demon Clan monopolize it?
To achieve this, they had to be like the Human Clan, where only the Human Clan was left in the entire Eastern Continent, and there were no other clans.
Or they could have other clans, but these clans were much weaker than the Human Clan, and there was no way they could fight back.
Or else.
It was just wishful thinking to want to monopolize a continent.
"How's the strength of the three clans?"
"According to sources, the Nine-headed Hound Clan has a Nirvana Realm expert and no less than ten powerful experts. As for the other two clans, they are about the same, but there are some differences in the number of powerful experts.
However, without exception, all of them are Nirvana Realm experts. "
Luo Xing said without hesitation.
If they could go against the Demon Clan, they could not be much weaker than the Demon Clan.
A Nirvana Realm expert.
That was only natural.
If they did not even have a Nirvana Realm expert, what right did they have to contend against the Demon Clan?
Xu Yuanming said, "What grudges do the three clans have against each other, and what do they think of the Human Clan?"
"It's said that the Black Stone Condor Clan hates the Human Clan. When they heard that the Human Clan had come out of the Eastern Continent, the Black Stone Condor Clan wanted to send experts there, but they did not do anything when they heard that the Demon Clan had also made a move.
As for the Earthbound Dragons, they should be neutral. They don't think highly of the Human Clan, but they don't hate the Human Clan either.
The Nine-headed Hound Clan should be similar. However, during this period of time, when human cultivators were chased into the territory of the Nine-headed Hound Clan, there were experts who protected them.
Therefore, I boldly speculate that the Nine-headed Hound Clan is closer to the Human Clan than the other two clans. "
"However, the relationship between the three clans can only be considered average. If not for the threat of the Demon Clan, the three clans might have already gone to war."
Luo Xing said.
Much of this information was provided by the Otherfolk.
Compared to the Human Clan of the Eastern Continent, the Otherfolk were even more fearless.
As long as a mission was issued, there would always be someone to complete it.
When Xu Yuanming heard this, he nodded his head in satisfaction, "You have done well in this matter. I will report this to the sect master. If it is indeed beneficial to our Yuan Sect, we will definitely reward you according to your contribution."
"Thank you, Elder Xu!" Luo Xing was overjoyed.
Then.
Xu Yuanming got up and left.
Eastern Continent, Liang Mountain Spirit Territory.
In the past few days, Qin Shujian had not gone out much.
The main reason was that there was nothing to do outside.
Instead, he took advantage of this time to refine a drop of Ling Huang's blood essence.
He did not break through to the next level.
However, his world had improved a lot.
Qin Shujian secretly estimated that his combat power should be about thirty thousand.
Even if it was not enough.
But it would not be too far off.
"Di Ling Huang is still too weak. If he can break through to the Nirvana Realm, maybe this time, my combat power will officially reach thirty thousand."
Qin Shujian shook his head regretfully.
But soon, he felt relieved.
If Di Ling Huang had broken through to the Nirvana Realm, he might not have had the chance to force him to give up two drops of blood essence.
Although the Nirvana Realm was still in the Heavenly Realm.
But whether he broke through or not, there was still a big difference.
Qin Shujian did not use the remaining drop of Di Ling Huang's blood essence because he still needed to create the Heaven List.
All of a sudden.
Qin Shujian's perception moved, and in the next instant, he disappeared from where he stood.
At the mountain gate.
Su Zhan was already waiting there.
When the two met, they did not exchange too much pleasantries and directly walked in.
In the courtyard.
Qin Shujian said with a faint smile, "Elder Su, what good news do you have this time?"
"Indeed, there is good news."
Su Zhan smiled and said, "Sect Master Qin, do you recognize this thing?"
While talking.
He untied a long black cloth from behind, revealing an irregular stone tablet.
"This is —"
Qin Shujian looked puzzled. Looking at the stone tablet that Su Zhan took out, he did not recognize it for a moment.
It was just that there were traces of the stone tablet on it.
It made him feel a little unusual.
"This is the Immortal Leaderboard of Ten Thousand Races!"
In the sea of consciousness, Godslayer had already exclaimed.
Immortal Leaderboard of Ten Thousand Races!
He never thought that after so many years, he would really see this treasure again.
As for Qin Shujian.
After hearing Godslayer's words, his face also changed. "Immortal Leaderboard of Ten Thousand Races!"
Hearing that.
Su Zhan sighed and said, "So Qin Shujian really does recognize the Immortal Leaderboard of Ten Thousand Races. Yes, this is the Immortal Leaderboard of Ten Thousand Races that His Majesty asked me to bring. However, this treasure has been broken, and this is just a fragment of the Immortal Leaderboard of Ten Thousand Races."
A fragment of the Immortal Leaderboard of Ten Thousand Races!
Qin Shujian looked at the stone tablet with burning eyes.
Even he found it hard to remain calm when faced with this legendary treasure.
At this moment, Qin Shujian looked at it from his perspective.
He could also see that there was a seal on the stone tablet, which sealed the power of this treasure fragment.
Godslayer said, "This is indeed a fragment of the Immortal Leaderboard of Ten Thousand Races. It used to be a top treasure of the Heavenly Court, but now it has also been broken. Judging from the size of this fragment, it should be one-tenth of the Immortal Leaderboard of Ten Thousand Races.
Moreover, it also contains a fragment of broken law. Not only is the Immortal Leaderboard of Ten Thousand Races broken, but even the law contained in it is also broken.
Boy, for you, this is a top treasure. If you can refine the law fragment inside, you might be able to directly step into the seventh level of the Celestial Human Realm. "
The law fragment!
For a Celestial Human Realm cultivator, it was a priceless treasure.
Because the law fragment contained rich law power.
If a cultivator comprehended it.
They could even draw nutrients from it to nourish their own law.
However.
The law fragment was difficult to obtain.
Only after the entire law was broken could the law fragment be left behind. However, only ancient True Immortals could break the law.
Hearing Godslayer's words.
Qin Shujian also took a deep breath.
The law.
It was the biggest obstacle to breaking through after the fourth level of the Celestial Human Realm.
Why did he want to strengthen his foundation and refuse to break through no matter what? Instead, he wanted to use the life source to break through in the future.
To put it bluntly.
Strengthening the foundation was one of the reasons.
But the real reason lay in the law.
Qin Shujian knew that his understanding of the law was still very shallow. Even if he opened all the acupoints, his understanding of the law was still not enough to reach the corresponding level.
Therefore.
That was why he deliberately suppressed his realm and did not break through.
He wanted to wait for the life source to be enough and then succeed in one fell swoop.
But at this moment, after hearing Godslayer's words.
Qin Shujian suddenly realized that with this law fragment, he could make up for his shortcomings in the law.
When that time came.
Although he was still at the fifth level of the Celestial Human Realm, as long as his comprehension of the law could keep up.
Then, the awkwardness of fighting against those tenth level Celestial Beings and even Nirvana Realm powerhouses in the past would be alleviated a lot.
It was not to say that it would completely offset the weakening.
But at least there would not be the awkwardness of being directly erased when the other party's domain was opened.
After understanding the importance of the Immortal Ranking Board fragment.
Qin Shujian said, "Human Emperor, are there any other conditions for giving this to me?"
When he spoke, he was looking at Su Zhan.
If it was a simple Immortal Ranking Board fragment, it would be fine. But there was still a law fragment in it, and its value was already immeasurable.
Human Emperor gave this to him.
To be honest.
If there were no conditions, Qin Shujian would not dare to ask for it easily.
Because this gift was too heavy!
Yes.
Too heavy.
Even if he had killed a few mighty figures, this gift was still too heavy. It was not that there were no mighty figures in the imperial court. Even Xi Yang had reached the ninth level of the Celestial Human Realm.
If he was the Human Emperor.
Wouldn't it be better for the law fragment to be used by his own people?
Not to mention anything else.
With Xi Yang's ninth level of the Celestial Human Realm, if he used the law fragment, he might be able to reach the tenth level of the Celestial Human Realm, allowing the human race to have another Emperor.
Su Zhan smiled helplessly and said, "As expected, I can't hide anything from you."
Qin Shujian thought to himself, "As expected."
Seeing his expression.
Su Zhan did not beat around the bush and said, "His Majesty wants you to personally kill a foreign Emperor after obtaining the fragment of the Immortal Ranking Board. If you agree to this, then the fragment can be given to you.
If you don't agree, I have to take the fragment back untouched. "
He had killed an alien Emperor!
Qin Shujian did not expect the Human Emperor to think so highly of him.
However …
He did not refuse. "I've already brought the thing. If I take it back, wouldn't I have made Elder Su come here for nothing? I'll have to trouble Elder Su to tell His Majesty that I'll definitely kill a foreign Emperor within a year to thank you for your help today."
After that …
Qin Shujian directly reached out and grabbed the stone tablet, placing it beside him.
"Elder Su, when do you plan to refine the Human Monument? I'm already prepared and can start at any time."
His attitude changed so quickly.
Su Zhan almost couldn't react in time.
