Chapter 1199: Chapter 1098: Counterkill
Bang!
Qin Shoujian was sent flying back.
Then he was brutally beaten by a dozen people, a sight too dreadful to watch.
However, Qin Shoujian did not yield; this kid surprisingly stood up again. He threw an elixir into his mouth, and the next moment, his entire being was wrapped in Immortal Essence.
Then a sword appeared in his hand.
"You’re all dead." The sword shimmered, and Qin Shoujian vanished. After five breaths, he returned to the original spot.
And those dozen immortals were all slain by a single sword strike.
They fell to the ground one after another.
The three women were shocked, all looking at Qin Shoujian with extremely complex feelings. They had to admit, he had saved them.
People still have emotions. Seeing him risking his life just now, the resentment in their hearts diminished somewhat, but they hadn’t completely forgiven him.
"I’ll take you back to the city." Qin Shoujian led the way, with the three women following.
The journey was not smooth, encountering over a dozen groups, but fortunately, Qin Shoujian cut them all down with one sword each.
This kid seemed to have suddenly become much stronger.
However, the moment they left the Immortal Forest, Qin Shoujian suddenly collapsed to the ground.
The three women supported him.
"You’ll be fine, just rest a bit; you should return."
The three women didn’t insist, and at this moment, their hearts for revenge hadn’t fully settled.
Just being a one-night couple, it seemed impossible for them to just leave like that.
After weighing the pros and cons, they decided to bring Qin Shoujian back to the city and found an inn to stay.
The three women never imagined that this was precisely Qin Shoujian’s strategy.
After gaining their sympathy, he proceeded with the next step of his plan.
The ultimate goal was actually to find out what exactly the Tea Sect’s journey to the ice mountain was for.
Of course, it wasn’t solely that; as a man, seeing his women in danger, he would choose to take action.
This is a pain every man feels, as no one wants their woman to be tainted by others, except for promiscuous ones.
Some women take a long time to truly see their character.
Moreover, they can change; being cute doesn’t mean they’ll always be cute, being innocent doesn’t mean they’ll always be innocent. They can change with the environment, pressure, material desires, and various metaphorical bombardments, eventually going down paths they never imagined.
Ultimately, they want to find a man who gives them a sense of security and happiness.
And this is something many men cannot accomplish.
In the end, men’s affinity with the word "play" is the deepest.
Even after marriage, they might not be content, and those who claim to be pure have only not had the opportunity to meet someone better.
The distance between men and women is like a paper-thin barrier, easily broken.
And women pursuing men is even easier.
The women in the Immortal Realm are mostly as pure as white paper. Aside from cultivation, they lack life’s trials.
To put it bluntly, they hardly understand how to buy and sell things.
Unlike on Earth, where they’ve received an education from a young age.
Immortals growing up in the Immortal Realm learn only by themselves from books and elders, as cultivation is daily life, leaving no time to open a book.
Otherwise, the three female disciples of the Tea Sect wouldn’t have been easily breached.
A day later, Qin Shoujian, utilizing the sympathy of the three women, finally uncovered the secret of the ice mountain from their mouths.
He then sent a message to the Great Elder, asking him to act like a mantis stalking a cicada, reaping the benefits without effort.
The Secret Realm isn’t safe, especially the older ones, which are more dangerous, but naturally, the more rewards they yield.
The three women of the Tea Sect had no idea they were being duped again.
And this time, they were duped badly.
On the ice mountain, Lin Mengbing led the disciples to the mid-mountain.
Here stood a cliff surrounded by ice trees.
Creatures growing in extreme ice conditions are absolute treasures. Take these ice trees, for example, they are extremely precious refining materials.
Rows of orderly Extreme Ice Ridge Trees were astonishing.
Without even looking, one could tell the Secret Realm was here; if not artificially planted, how could it be so orderly?
Lin Mengbing took out a Break Array Scroll. With her ability, she couldn’t open the Secret Realm, as understanding the Array Path is crucial for entry.
Fortunately, Tang Feng left a trick up his sleeve, otherwise, the trip would have been pointless.
Approaching the mountain wall, she tossed the scroll. It floated midair and slowly unfolded, mysterious symbols flashing from it and melding into the space.
Then a loud bang, like waves crashing onto the shore, echoed. In the space, a tangible ripple flashed, and the scroll transformed into light particles.
Then a passage appeared before everyone’s eyes.
Hahaha.
I didn’t expect our timing to be just right.
The Great Elder of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect led a group of disciples over.
Tea Sect’s disciples hurriedly stepped aside; the difference in power between the two sects was too great, leaving no room for comparison.
The Tea Sect’s disciples were well aware of this.
"Elder Lin, long time no see." The Great Elder of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect approached Lin Mengbing.
"Elder Wang, what do you mean by this?"
"I mean nothing. It’s just that our Ten Thousand Sword Sect has taken a liking to this Secret Realm. What do you think, Elder Lin?"
"Elder Wang, don’t bully people too much!" Lin Mengbing’s face was icy.
"How is this bullying? I’m merely discussing with you." With that, he stepped toward the Secret Realm.
"Courting death!" Lin Mengbing was enraged, truly considering her transparent, and with a wave of her hand, Elder Wang felt a powerful force knock him away.
Heavily crashing into the mountain wall.
"How, how is this possible!" Disciples of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect were dumbfounded by it all.
Some reacted quickly, rushing to pull him out, only to find it impossible as Elder Wang was uncooperative.
At this moment, his old face was exceedingly gloomy, "Everyone back off." Then he was ejected from the wall, puking blood, and with a flick of his fingers, unleashed powerful Sword Qi at Lin Mengbing.
This was his ultimate move, Sword Slashes All Immortals!
The move was utterly domineering, its power truly formidable, an attack from the Peak of the Immortal King Realm, even ordinary Immortal Emperors would struggle to withstand it.
But Lin Mengbing was different. After cultivating the tea classics given by Tang Feng, her physical prowess was at least twice as strong as before. Thus, she withstood the attack unscathed; instead, the Great Elder Wang of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect was sent flying again, suffering even more severe injuries.
"You hid well, woman, I never thought you’d break through." Knowing he couldn’t gain any benefits, the Great Elder of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect turned and flew downhill.
The disciples panicked and followed down the mountain.
Pfft!
Lin Mengbing was also injured, but not severely. After all, she had just broken through a few days ago, and her realm wasn’t fully stabilized yet.
Fortunately, she had plenty of elixirs. After swallowing a Healing Elixir, her injuries rapidly healed; the potency was simply heaven-defying.
"Let’s go inside." After resting for a while, Lin Mengbing led the disciples into the Secret Realm.
The entire passageway was layered with ice, yet there wasn’t a hint of ice beneath their feet, which all the women found somewhat strange.
Inside the passageway, they found nothing, but both sides of the tunnel were adorned with some ice fruits, though none of them dared to touch them without knowing.
After passing through the passage, the women entered the inner space.
My God!
The women of the Tea Sect were dumbstruck by the scene before them.
