Asura Mad Emperor

Chapter 43 Leave After Things Are Done

That day, the Lin Family sent people to the Qin Residence, planning to propose a marriage.

However, they regretted to learn that Qinchuan had not yet returned to the residence.

...

Time flew by.

With only three days left until the New Year Festival, the members of the Qin Family who had been training in the Great Wilderness finally returned to the Qin Residence one after another.

After nearly a month of training in the Great Wilderness, the strength of the members of the Qin Family had greatly improved.

Especially the Third Elder, whose cultivation level had reached the middle stage of the Fifth Layer of the Condensed Truth Realm.

Aside from the Third Elder, the Second Elder had also broken through to the early stage of the Fifth Layer of the Condensed Truth Realm.

As for the Fifth and Seventh Elders, they both reached the peak of the Fourth Layer of the Condensed Truth Realm.

In addition, the younger disciples such as Qin Shan had all advanced to the Condensed Truth Realm!

Qin Shan, in particular, had already reached the peak of the First Layer of the Condensed Truth Realm and was not far from advancing to the Second Layer.

Moreover, during this month, they had fought life-and-death battles against various demon beasts every day. Not only had their practical experience greatly improved, but the martial skills they practiced had also been tempered, and their control over strength had become incomparably better than before.

"There are only three days left until the New Year Festival. Zhao Family, we will give you a huge surprise!"

The faces of the Qin Family members did not show the slightest worry; instead, they were full of anticipation, with a resolute fighting spirit in their eyes.

Meanwhile.

In the Great Wilderness Core.

Qinchuan finally awoke from his intensive training.

He opened his eyes, and a fierce brilliance flashed within his pupils. His muscles were crystalline, and he seemed as if he was cast from divine iron, with a divine radiance faintly circulating around his body.

"Netherworld Holy Water is truly remarkable. Although it did not enhance my True Qi Cultivation, it further refined my aptitude and also strengthened my physical body."

"With my current strength, even a martial artist on the Ninth Grade of the Condensed Truth Realm might not be able to withstand a punch from me!"

"And, with the accumulation of these past days, I can break through to the Fifth Layer of the Condensed Truth Realm at any time."

Qinchuan murmured to himself, feeling his current strength, a trace of satisfaction appearing in his eyes.

"I have been here for a long time; it's time to leave..."

Then, Qinchuan rose, pushed open the stone door, and found that the Crimson Flame Bird had not left; it lay at the doorway as if waiting for him.

At this moment, the Crimson Flame Bird had also undergone considerable changes.

Its body became stronger, its feathers more vivid, and even its gaze became brighter. Its spiritual intelligence seemed to have also improved significantly.

Even that drop of Netherworld Holy Water had awakened a trace of the hidden Vermilion Bird Bloodline within its body, significantly increasing its potential.

Seeing Qinchuan emerge from his retreat, the Crimson Flame Bird immediately perked up, greeting him with its crisp, cheerful calls.

A Fourth Rank, Ninth Grade peak demon beast's spiritual intelligence was not low; it could sense the extraordinary in Qinchuan and thus developed the desire to follow him.

Seeing this, Qinchuan smiled and said, "You were unwilling to carry me on this journey before, so why now do you want to follow me voluntarily? Aren't you going back to be your Demon King?"

"Chirp chirp chirp..."

The Crimson Flame Bird wrapped its wings around Qinchuan's legs, raised its head, blinked its spirited large eyes, and the crisp sound came from its mouth.

Seeing his shameless demeanor, Qinchuan couldn't help but laugh and shook his head, grudgingly saying, "Alright, since you're so determined, then you may stay by my side for now."

Earlier, Qinchuan had sensed the presence of a trace of the Vermilion Bird bloodline in it, which was why he had bestowed a drop of Netherworld Holy Water to help awaken the sliver of Vermilion Bird bloodline within it.

At this moment, judging by the changes occurring on the other party, it seemed that the other party had not wasted the drop of Netherworld Holy Water and had successfully awakened the trace of Vermilion Bird bloodline within.

He was currently in need of a mount for travel, so keeping the other party around was not an issue.

"Chirp chirp chirp..."

Upon hearing this, the Crimson Flame Bird immediately became extremely excited.

Qinchuan stepped out of his cultivation spot, and nearby demons hurriedly gathered around.

"How long have I been in closed-door cultivation this time?"

A great demon hastily replied with respect, "My lord has been in closed-door cultivation for twelve days."

"Twelve days?"

Qinchuan's eyebrows slightly raised as he muttered, "Adding the time previously delayed, there are only three days left until the New Year Celebration."

"Is my lord in a hurry to go somewhere? Do you need us to send you off?"

Another great demon quickly offered.

Qinchuan glanced at him and smiled, shaking his head, "You better not, with your level of cultivation, if you leave this Great Wilderness Core, you'd probably immediately cause panic among the nearby ancient kingdoms and sect forces. Send a demon with lower cultivation to escort me."

With only three short days left until the New Year Celebration in Great Wilderness City, even with the Crimson Flame Bird's speed, it would be impossible to arrive before the celebration begins.

In the end, Qinchuan chose a demon race cultivator skilled in speed to escort him.

Before departing, Qinchuan left behind a Demon Emperor's Scripture and a Demon Monarch's Treasure Technique, "Xiao Hei and Xiao Kui died in guarding the things I left behind, and you have not breached the restriction of leaving this place, so I'm leaving these two treasures for you."

"You may cultivate in peace. When the time comes, I will grant you freedom, allowing you to freely come and go from here."

Afterward, Qinchuan stepped onto a wind transformed by the demon race cultivator, taking the Crimson Flame Bird and heading in the direction of Great Wilderness City.

"Thank you, my lord!"

The mighty demons from both races were immediately overjoyed.

The Demon Emperor's Scripture and the Demon Monarch's Treasure Technique were two Supreme Treasure Techniques.

When Qinchuan had originally imparted them to Xiao Hei and Xiao Kui, he had forbidden them from passing the techniques on, so the powerful demons had only heard about these two mighty techniques but had never cultivated them.

Now that Qinchuan was leaving these two great treasures behind, it was a clear grant for them to practice, and to them, it was a tremendous opportunity.

Furthermore, Qinchuan's promise of future freedom to come and go from the Great Wilderness as they pleased only added to their excitement.

In the past, these two demon races had brought disaster upon humanity, slaughtering and feasting on human beings, resulting in misery in this realm, which was why Qinchuan had subdued them. Their emperors and monarchs had become his followers, and in the end, they remained in the Great Wilderness Core to guard the Sacred Abyss.

As Qinchuan was riding the demon wind about to leave the Great Wilderness Core, suddenly, powerful formation patterns surged in the void, drawing upon the terrifying force of heaven and earth and forming a strong barrier that blocked the wind at his feet.

This was a measure laid out by Qinchuan in years past, meant to prevent these demons from recklessly emerging from this place and wreaking havoc upon the world.

Faced with the barrier he had set up so long ago, Qinchuan calmly pressed his hand against it, and the barrier before him rippled in concentric circles.

The demon wind immediately penetrated through the barrier, carrying Qinchuan and the Crimson Flame Bird rapidly towards Great Wilderness City.

As Qinchuan rode the demon wind away, the barrier once again became hidden and returned to calm.

The speed of the demon wind was swift, covering a thousand miles in the blink of an eye, and no demon beasts along the way dared to obstruct it.
