Chapter 616: Chapter 288: Making a Name for Daqin, Multiple Crises

As the Emperor’s grandson, Qin Tong’s status in the Daqin Immortal Country was top-notch, and his talent and strength also placed him among the heaven’s pride. Yet, at this moment, such a genius furrowed his brows, with a hint of confusion.

“Is a half-step treasure sword tool that strong?”

“Even my Chaos-cleaving Sword only has a slight advantage, and it’s a genuine spiritual treasure.”

Qin Tong murmured, a golden long sword hovering beside him, constantly vibrating, conveying its dissatisfaction. Qin Tong could only comfort it repeatedly.

“Alright, alright, not just a slight advantage, but completely suppressing that sword.”

After some comforting, the spirited Chaos-cleaving Sword transmitted a sense of doubt. Being a spiritual treasure, its wisdom was already like that of a child, able to discern true or false.

“You’re saying that although that sword isn’t strong, it’s a bit strange, making you feel uneasy and unable to let loose?”

Qin Tong’s pupils constricted slightly. When he recalled the scene where the Chaos-cleaving Sword and the opponent’s cyan-black sword tool clashed, he indeed felt somewhat restrained compared to usual.

Just now.

When the six of them met, it wasn’t Han Yi who attacked first, but Qin Tong. As soon as he made his move, he directly summoned the Chaos-cleaving Sword. This sword, in Sky Pillar Manager’s Cave Heaven, had already killed dozens of Golden Core cultivators and seven or eight Rock Demons, among which were three Nascent Soul level Rock Demons.

For others, this Cave Heaven was the battleground for the Supreme Order, but for Qin Tong, it was just a sword training ground.

However, this time, all his attacks were blocked by one person. Moreover, that person still had spare energy to protect the other two. His combat power left Qin Tong astounded.

“Young Master, this person is indeed strange.”

Next to Qin Tong, an middle-aged man stood in the void. This middle-aged man’s realm was astonishingly at the Nascent Soul Stage, and he was at the Mid-stage Nascent Soul. This man was Qin Tong’s personal bodyguard, named Guo Ting.

In this Cave Heaven, Guo Ting had never made a move. After entering the Cave Heaven, he needed to be constrained. Qin Tong could bring his spiritual treasure and Guo Ting into the place, but he only had the duty to guard without any authority to act.

However, just as the Sword Cultivator was about to escape, Guo Ting hesitated and was about to intercept, only to be shocked to discover that even if he took action, he couldn’t stop the opponent. At most, he could only stop the two cultivators that the opponent was protecting, which was utterly meaningless.

He hadn’t told Qin Tong about this matter, but he had conveyed the ‘strange’ impression of the Sword Cultivator.

Beside Qin Tong, another young man dressed in a black robe and holding a crimson gold heavy halberd remained silent, but his whole body was filled with fighting intent that shook the void, showing the unrest in his inner heart.

This person came from one of the Daqin Three Halls—the Taiwei Hall—and was the direct grandson of the current Taiwei Hall’s Hall Master; his name was Gao Yixian.

“Indeed, not bad.” Gao Yixian’s words were brief, but those who knew him understood that if someone could get a ‘not bad’ evaluation from his mouth, there would be less than five of them in the entire Daqin.

Qin Tong retracted his gaze and put away the Chaos-cleaving Sword.

“Interesting, I never thought that there would be such talented external sect cultivators in this Supreme Order challenge. It doesn’t matter. You all remember his appearance, and after the assessment is over, we can check and find out his identity.”

“Let’s go.”

As the grandson of the Daqin Emperor, it was natural for Qin Tong to easily investigate a cultivator who appeared in the Supreme Order examination.

The trio turned around and left, disappearing from the spot.

Ten breaths after the trio left, an illusory figure with an indistinguishable face appeared at the spot. Instead of looking at the departing Qin Tong and the others, he looked in the direction where Han Yi had left.

Then.

The illusory figure took out a notebook and began to record.

Almost at the same time.

Outside of the Sky Pillar Manager’s Cave Heaven, there were about ten high-level cultivators standing in two rows at the sides of the Daqin Immortal Palace, forming a path in the middle. In front of them, there were several suspended mirrors in the entire great hall, each displaying a different scene from within the Cave Heaven.

Of course, the scene involving Qin Tong attracted the attention of the cultivators.

Before this, although the status of Zhuo Yangxi, the young master of Yanwei Mansion, was not low, it was still far from Qin Tong’s. Although several high-level cultivators had noticed Han Yi and Xia Quan’s battle, they could only see the surface and couldn’t perceive what happened in Xia Quan’s Soul Slave Space.

After escaping from Qin Tong’s hands, Han Yi became the focus of the cultivators’ discussions.

“This person is a cultivator from a sect called Xuandan Sect in Daqian. His name is Han Yi.” A high-level cultivator searched the registration records and brought up Han Yi’s information.

“He was able to kill the Soul Palace’s Xia Quan and even turn his soul slave into his own. He must have practiced the Soul Palace’s Soul Skill. However, I don’t remember there being such a person among the Soul Seed.”

“Moreover, he is also a Sword Cultivator. That Sword Control Skill could even contend against the Chaos-cleaving Sword. I thought he was one of the Sword Species from Luofu Mountain. His movement technique is even more extraordinary, definitely at the Mid-stage Nascent Soul level.”

“When did Daqian produce such a fierce person?”

“He has quite a few points. According to the rules, he does have a chance to obtain the Supreme Order. Are we really going to give it to him?”

In the Immortal Palace, people were either shocked, contemplating, exuding a murderous aura, or showing their intent to recruit. The cultivators who could stand here were at least at the level of Nine Mansions Mansion Lords. In addition, there were also the Three Hall Masters of Daqin above the Nine Mansions.

Daqin’s political system was not complicated. Below the Emperor, there were three halls and nine mansions. This political structure shared similarities with Daqian Immortal Country across the Evil Mountain Range. In Daqian Immortal Country, there were also three dukes and six departments.
