“The time should be enough by now.”
At this moment, inside the main peak of the Immortal Gate Encounter Site, Qin Changqing’s voice resonated over a large square.
He had intentionally disappeared for the past three months.
The purpose was to find a reason for his cultivation reaching the Nascent Soul Mid-stage, allowing the North Region cultivators to have a reasonable assumption.
To soar from the Tier 1 Nascent Soul to Tier 4 Nascent Soul stage so suddenly was indeed a bit too shocking.
This was the Nascent Soul stage, not the Qi Refining or Foundation Establishment stage.
For those with slightly inferior Spiritual Roots, like ordinary Tier 6 Spiritual Roots, even after reaching the Nascent Soul stage, they might not be able to reach the Tier 4 Nascent Soul stage by the end of their remaining one or two thousand years of life.
Otherwise, why would it take Qin Changqing 4000 years of cultivation to reach Tier 4 Nascent Soul stage?
If the time was extended a bit, to over a hundred years, or even several decades, it could still be forcibly explained.
But now it was only one or two years, which was too short.
Qin Changqing did not want to cause unnecessary trouble and arouse suspicion for no reason.
This time, he came to the right place.
Because on this square, there were numerous Inheritance Steles, and there was a person sitting in front of each stele.
However, as soon as Qin Changqing entered, these people turned to ash.
After arriving at this square, Qin Changqing understood what had happened in this Immortal Gate through a jade slip.
Back then, the Hai Clan stirred up huge waves that swept across the entire North Region.
The Hai Clan’s attack preparations were so thorough and fast that the North
Region hadn’t reacted before the fierce wave had arrived.
The Immortal Gates of the North Region fought hastily.
The strong of this Immortal Gate all went out to battle, but in the end, only a small number of people managed to escape with severe injuries.
After escaping, they prepared to seal the Immortal Gate with numerous Prohibition Formations, leaving this place, so that it couldn’t be occupied by the Hai Clan.
This could explain why in the Catholicon Garden, only high-grade spiritual medicines with long growing years were plucked, leaving a large number of low-grade spiritual medicines behind.
It was because they hurriedly left, wanting to take away valuable things, and naturally had no time to slowly take the less valuable things with them.
But they were still one step late. The prohibitions had just been set up when they were attacked by a Hai Clan army.
The people inside this Immortal Gate realized they couldn’t break out and decided to activate the great array, completely sealing the Immortal Gate to prevent other Hai Clan forces from finding it.
They only needed to deal with the huge Hai Clan army already inside.
After a series of fierce battles, both the remaining people of this Immortal Gate and this Hai Clan army were severely injured, but the Hai Clan army still remained powerful.
Fortunately, they were able to hold on with the help of the Prohibition Formations here.
After fighting intermittently for thousands of years, they still couldn’t defeat the Hai Clan army.
Seeing that they couldn’t win and couldn’t escape, some cultivators whose lifespan could no longer hold on left their inheritance here and created some Inheritance Steles.
These Inheritance Steles also resembled receiving the inheritance by fate.
Fortunately, Qin Changqing’s luck was not bad. As soon as he entered, he was acknowledged by the largest Inheritance Stele.
Moreover, this Immortal Gate was once quite proficient in Array Formations, and the largest Inheritance Stele was precisely from a powerful Formation Master.
The prohibitions here were all laid down by the other party.
The other party’s cultivation base had even reached the Deifying stage at that time.
Therefore, what was recorded inside this Inheritance Stele was mostly related to Array Formations and Prohibition Formations.
Moreover, it wasn’t basic knowledge but some specific Array Formations and the layout of specific Prohibition Formations.
For Qin Changqing, it was a great harvest indeed.
The other party’s actual cultivation base wasn’t the key.
For Formation Masters, their own cultivation base and formation expertise were two separate matters.
Of course, a Formation Master with insufficient cultivation base would not
have a high level of Formation proficiency since they wouldn’t have much
lifespan left.
Now, Qin Changqing did not lack basic knowledge. His knowledge in formation techniques was based on basic knowledge.
He lacked specific formations and specific prohibition formations.
If he were to figure it out on his own, it would take more time and energy.
Now, there was actually a pie falling from the sky.With nearly 3,000 years of experience in array formation, it was easy and enjoyable for him to learn the formations and prohibition formations contained in this inheritance.
If it were the Luoyun Sect Leader, he would find it difficult to qualify for learning the formations and prohibition formations within.
To Qin Changqing,
If this wasn’t a pie falling from the sky, what was?
On this trip, Qin Changqing didn’t expect any gains; he just needed an excuse to cover up the rapid growth of his cultivation.
But he didn’t expect,
That there would be such good fortune.
Now, with the Inheritance Stele, it is easy to explain.
Qin Changqing claimed that he had obtained the largest piece of the Inheritance Stele, and the person who died had sealed his cultivation using a secret method inside.
Of course, it was difficult to achieve.
Like the Gold Family Cultivator at the Nascent Soul Peak, if his lifespan reached its limit, it wouldn’t be easy to pass on his cultivation to others.
This wasn’t like the martial arts novels where one could transmit internal energy.
It could be transmitted, but there would be a substantial discount, and the biggest possibility is that it would cause others to explode.
Furthermore, there might be a backlash, causing a significant increase in another’s cultivation for a short time, but it would greatly affect future cultivation, and as time passed… that person might be ruined.
However, this was the Ancient Immortal Gate Ruins, and their cultivation methods greatly differed from the present.
Qin Changqing stored the Inheritance Stele, and with such an excuse, his cultivation had increased again.
Others naturally had room for imagination.
Therefore, Qin Changqing didn’t touch anything else here and prepared to leave.
At that moment, outside,
The attack of the sea beasts continued.
“It can’t escape now!”
Under the joint efforts of a group of Nascent Soul cultivators, the extremely cunning Tier 4 Sea Beast finally had nowhere to escape.
The Sect Leader also participated in the attack on this Tier 4 Sea Beast.
On the other side, Liu Xinshui’s younger sister, Liu Xinyue, led the Golden Elixir cultivators of the Shuiyue Sect to deal with another group of sea beasts. There were no Tier 4 Sea Beasts in this group, so it was easier to handle.
Liu Xinyue looked almost exactly like her sister, but as the younger sister, her demeanor appeared to be more vivacious.
However, this vivacity was only relative.
As a Nascent Soul cultivator, she was over a thousand years old and rarely spoke outside.
Having just killed a sea beast, suddenly, an extremely ferocious sea beast rushed over and opened its mouth wide.
“Tier 4!”
Liu Xinyue’s face changed, and she quickly formed hand seals, causing a small magical shield to enlarge.
“Boom!”
The magical shield trembled under the impact, and Liu Xinyue felt as if she had been severely hit, with her True Origin vibrating involuntarily.
The opposing side’s attack was too strong, far surpassing her strength. Even though she successfully blocked the enemy’s attack with her magical tool, her entire body’s True Origin was still shaken.
It was like when Qin Changqing used the Qingyun Mirror to block a strike from the Holy Maiden of the Dark Moon, his entire body felt pleasantly numb.
If she endured a few more attacks like this, she wouldn’t be able to withstand them anymore.
“Boom boom boom-”
Sure enough, the Tier 4 Demonic Beast launched consecutive attacks.
“Xinyue! ”
Noticing the situation, Liu Xinshui, who was besieging another Tier 4 Sea Beast, was shocked.
But it was too late. Liu Xinyue’s magic shield couldn’t resist any longer and was forcibly knocked away.
The surrounding Golden Elixir cultivators attacked in unison, but the sea beast remained unaffected.
Another attack was imminent, and Liu Xinyue’s True Origin had not yet settled, leaving her no time to dodge.
Just as she was about to activate her trump card to block the attack, suddenly, A figure appeared, and a light screen expanded, forcefully blocking the sea beast’s attack!
