Chapter 106 - Xuanyuan Cannon, Heaven

It had to be said that this wave was not a loss. Hmm… I don’t think I’ve had a loss before.

[Do you want to activate Critical Hit Return?]

“Activate.”

Ye Qiu was looking forward to what he could get back this time.

[Ding… congratulations, you have triggered 2,000 times critical hit and obtained a Connate numinous treasure, Qiankun Cauldron.]

“Another Connate numinous treasure?”

Ye Qiu was shocked. He had obtained another Connate numinous treasure. Ye Qiu fell silent after carefully studying the Qiankun Cauldron.

“Why does this thing feel so embarrassing to use?” Ye Qiu said gloomily. The Qiankun Cauldron was extremely defensive. It was suitable for battle or alchemy. However, one of the uses that made Ye Qiu very unhappy was the escape option.

The Qiankun Cauldron had a universe within it! If Ye Qiu encountered a stronger opponent that he couldn’t defeat, he could hide in the Qiankun Cauldron and use a secret technique to escape. This was because this was a Connate numinous treasure. Even a Martial Monarch could not destroy it. As long as Ye Qiu hid inside, he would be safe.

The corner of Ye Qiu’s mouth twitched. I’m a Sword Immortal. Do I need to escape? What a joke.

“Yes, I’ll keep it for now. Who knows?” After thinking for a moment, Ye Qiu grinned and put the Qiankun Cauldron into his storage jade. He could consider teaching his disciples how to refine pills with this cauldron when he returned.

There were many alchemy techniques in Violet Cloud Peak’s inheritance, but they were all low-level medicinal pills, such as the Great Recovery Pill and other recovery medicinal pills. These pills were useless to Ye Qiu, but, didn’t he have ten-thousand-fold return? Wouldn’t he have everything if he activated the returns? So, he happily decided on it.

Boom…

At this moment, a deafening sound came from the chaos.

Lian Feng’s expression changed and instantly turned cold. She stared fixedly at the void and said, “Heaven Swallowing Sparrow…”

Ye Qiu frowned and looked at the void.

A Nine Heavens Divine Bird suddenly opened its mouth and crazily devoured the chaotic energy in the mist. Its strength increased rapidly, and soon, it reached the mid-stage Paragon realm.

Ye Qiu’s eyes flashed with joy and surprise. The Heaven Swallowing Sparrow that had disappeared for many days had finally appeared. Along with it were the three great ferocious beasts.

“I’ve finally found you!” The corners of Ye Qiu’s mouth curled up as he muttered to himself.

Lian Feng looked at him strangely. The moment the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow appeared, she could clearly feel Ye Qiu emitting killing intent. Although it was only for a moment, she still caught it. “Senior Brother, you seem to be very interested in this Heaven Swallowing Sparrow?”

“Of course. I came here to find it.” Ye Qiu smiled gently and explained.

Lian Feng looked at his gentle and handsome face and her heart trembled. Her pretty face felt a little hot.

“Damn it, this feeling again.” Lian Feng cursed in her heart. Why did she have this strange feeling every time she looked at Ye Qiu? After thinking for a moment, Lian Feng thought: Yes, it must be that bewitching technique again.

Shaking her head, Lian Feng finally returned to normal.

“Let’s go and take a look too.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Lian Feng’s white clothes fluttered as she leaped and left this area. Her peerless beauty was eye-catching.

Ye Qiu stepped into the void and disappeared. His gaze landed on a dark chaotic void. In the huge vortex, the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow devoured everything, and its strength increased exponentially.

Suanni and Zhuyan both felt immense pressure.

The old turtle holding the coffin was calm and did not panic at all. Its strength was above these three great ferocious beasts.

Lian Feng’s figure was the first to appear in the chaotic void. The moment that peerless and magnificent figure appeared, it immediately attracted everyone’s attention.

“Isn’t this the girl from the Heaven Mending Sect? Why is she here…” An old man with a goatee said with an evil expression.

“Haha, Old Man Xuanyuan, are you interested in this girl?”

Someone echoed the evil words.

At this moment, a sage-like old man not far away reminded him, “Daoist Xuanyuan, this is not your Dapan Mountain where you can choose those disciples of the sect to be your cauldrons. This person is the Goddess of Heaven Mending. You better take it easy. If you anger that old fellow Qi Daosheng, you won’t have a good time.”

When Daoist Xuanyuan heard this, he felt unhappy. “Hmph, I’ve always done whatever I want in my life. I can do whatever I want. Why should I be afraid of that Qi Daosheng? So what if she’s the Heaven Mending Goddess? I wouldn’t fancy her if she’s an ordinary woman.”

At this point, Daoist Xuanyuan immediately revealed an evil smile.

This was the Goddess of Heaven Mending! She had inherited the position of the Goddess of Heaven Mending Sect’s ancient inheritance. Her identity was very special. If he succeeded, wouldn’t the Heaven Mending Sect be furious? Furthermore, he was not from the Heaven Domain, and Qi Daosheng was not here. At that time, even if he wanted to take revenge on him, he would not be able to find the Mystic Domain.

“Hehe, this seems to be a very exciting thing.” Daoist Xuanyuan said evilly.

In this life, he loved to challenge difficult things. The more impossible it was, the more he wanted to try. He could not defeat Qi Daosheng, but wouldn’t it be easy to deal with Lian Feng? After thinking about it in his heart, Daoist Xuanyuan already had a sinister thought.

The old man shook his head when he saw him like this.

Everyone present knew what kind of person he was.

This Daoist Xuanyuan was famous for his unorthodox, and his cultivation technique was even more strange. Every time he cultivated, he needed the help of a woman as a cultivation cauldron. The more beautiful a woman was, the stronger the effect.

As the patriarch of Dapan Mountain, he chose all the women with the slightest beauty. It could be said that he was utterly heartless. Even the youngest one, who was in her early teens, could not escape his grasp.

All these years, he had done all sorts of bad things.

It wasn’t just his Dapan Mountain. It was also the descendants of other famous mountains, holy lands, and large clans. Once they caught his eye, it would be difficult for them to escape from his grasp.

Lian Feng, as the Goddess of Heaven Mending, her talent and beauty had reached the peak. It was not an exaggeration to say that she was peerless.

How could such a strange woman escape the eyes of Xuanyuan? The old man couldn’t help but sigh. He could only feel sorry for Lianfeng.

Although this Daoist Xuanyuan’s character was not good, his strength was at the late-stage of the Paragon realm. Lian Feng was only at the mid-stage Paragon realm. How could she be his match? If Qi Daosheng was here, perhaps Daoist Xuanyuan would not dare to be too impudent. Unfortunately, Qi Daosheng was not here.

As soon as Lian Feng entered, she felt Daoist Xuanyuan’s evil gaze and felt disgusted. No one could withstand the lecherous gaze of an old man.

Lian Feng had more or less heard of the rumors regarding Daoist Xuanyuan, and she couldn’t help but feel a little afraid. However, ever since she debuted, she had yet to taste defeat. She did not take half a step back under the drive of her powerful confidence.

At this moment, the void trembled again and Ye Qiu slowly walked out of the crack.

“Eh, who is this?”

His appearance immediately attracted the curiosity of many people.

When the Monarch’s tomb opened this time, the experts of the various domains came out. Many of them knew each other before, and some were unfamiliar.

Ye Qiu was a stranger.

He took a step forward and instantly appeared beside Lian Feng. Ye Qiu frowned when he felt the strange gazes around him.

“Hmm… Why are there so many people here?” He looked around and saw many experts in the surroundings were watching this battle. Ye Qiu pondered. These people must be the top experts of the various domains, right?

Ye Qiu didn’t know much about the experts of the other domains. He had only met Lian Feng today. He also understood that there was another Heaven Mending Sect in the Heaven Domain.

It was Ye Qiu’s first time on the battlefield, so he didn’t appear too arrogant. Instead, he stood beside Lian Feng in a very low profile.

Ye Qiu suddenly felt a strange gaze. He curiously looked over and discovered that Daoist Xuanyuan was staring fixedly at Lian Feng.

Ye Qiu rubbed his chin and immediately understood. “Junior Sister, you’re really beautiful. You attract both old and young. Look, this old man hasn’t blinked since you came here…”

Lianfeng immediately turned cold. “Disgusting.”

Ye Qiu’s interest was piqued. “Junior Sister, do you know this person?”

“This person is the Patriarch of the Mystic Domain’s Dapan Mountain. His surname is Xuanyuan, but his name is unknown. Everyone calls him Daoist Xuanyuan. His cultivation method can be said to be despicable, disgraceful and disgusting.” Lianfeng spoke bluntly.

Although she didn’t know where the disgust was, there was definitely nothing wrong with everyone saying so. The more Ye Qiu listened, the more interested he became, especially in Daoist Xuanyuan’s cultivation technique. What kind of secret technique could make Lian Feng so disdainful and shameless…

“Junior Sister, can you tell me in detail? I’m quite curious about how despicable it is.” Ye Qiu probed. Lian Feng turned around and looked at him, pursing her lips.

She seemed to be struggling with something. Should she say it? It was a little difficult to say.

After hesitating for a long time, Lian Feng turned around and said proudly, “How else can he be despicable? The secret technique he cultivates is the Sun Moon cultivation technique. It is one Yin, one Yang, Yin as support, Yang as the main. They complement each other to achieve the profundity of the Sun Moon cultivation technique together.”

At this point, Lian Feng secretly turned around to look at Ye Qiu, her face turning red. She gritted her teeth and continued, “To cultivate this technique, you have to use a woman as a catalyst and a cauldron to provide yin and yang harmony to achieve the goal of cultivating together.

“The cauldron has, of course, the best effect when the woman’s beauty and talents were of the best. All these years, all the disciples of the Dapan Mountain orthodoxy that Daoist Xuanyuan was in have entered his Primordial Chaos Hall and never appeared again.”

At this point, Lian Feng felt a chill and couldn’t help but shiver. The more she spoke, the angrier she became. She looked at Daoist Xuanyuan with eyes filled with killing intent. She really wanted to kill such a scourge.

After Ye Qiu heard this, he suddenly understood.

“Oh, so that’s what happened…” Ye Qiu suddenly revealed a meaningful smile and said, “I didn’t expect Junior Sister to know so much about this.”

Lian Feng shivered when she heard this. She turned around and glared at Ye Qiu, gritting her teeth. “Ye Qiu…”

“Haha… Alright, alright. I won’t tease you anymore.” He smiled unkindly at the exasperated Lian Feng.

“Hmph, if you continue like this, I’ll ignore you in the future.” Lian Feng’s face turned red. She turned around proudly, not wanting to see Ye Qiu’s smug smile again. She was even more puzzled. Why did her heart beat faster every time she looked at Ye Qiu? Ah… How annoying. This detestable man was like my destined nemesis.

At this moment, a trace of killing intent flashed across Xuanyuan’s eyes when he saw the two of them flirting. No one had ever dared to touch the woman he liked. Ye Qiu was actually chatting so happily with Lian Feng.

It had already made him want to kill.

Xuanyuan was extremely confident as a late-stage Paragon realm expert. Ye Qiu looked young and was at most an early-stage Paragon realm expert. To be able to reach this level of cultivation at this age could already be said to be a one in a million genius.

However, geniuses who had yet to mature could not be considered geniuses. Thinking of this, Xuanyuan smiled evilly and said, “Hehe… another peerless genius is going to die in my hands.”

Over the years, Xuanyuan had killed countless geniuses. He would kill anyone who posed a threat to him before they could succeed. He almost never missed.

Now, Ye Qiu was on his death list.

Everyone understood what he wanted to do when they saw his murderous gaze. They did not stop him but watched from afar as if they were watching a show.

“Hehe, this kid is probably going to die.”

“It’s laughable that he still doesn’t know that danger has arrived. He still does whatever he wants and talks cheerfully.”

“Very few people can survive after being targeted by Daoist Xuanyuan. I hope he can last longer.”

Everyone laughed secretly, as if they were already used to such things.

People who had reached this realm had long become indifferent to the so-called morality. If the trouble didn’t find them, why should they cause trouble?

Xuanyuan arrived in front of Ye Qiu and Lian Feng in a step.

“Haha, young friends, you’ve reached such a realm at such a young age. You’re indeed extraordinary and have the looks of a celestial. I’ve never seen such geniuses in my life. You will definitely rise to the heavens in the future and become Martial Monarchs.” Daoist Xuanyuan squeezed out a smile and said amiably.

However, anyone with a discerning eye could see the hidden killing intent in his eyes.

Lian Feng immediately became vigilant when she saw that he was deliberately trying to get close to her. Just as she was about to speak, Ye Qiu suddenly waved his hand, indicating that he should handle this matter.

Lian Feng was very unhappy, but on account of the Four Symbols Cauldron from before, well… just this once… She comforted herself and stood obediently behind Ye Qiu.

After comforting Lian Feng, Ye Qiu walked out with a smile and looked meaningfully at Daoist Xuanyuan. He glanced at the small action of his right hand and did not expose it. Instead, he smiled and said, “Senior, you must be joking. How could we dare to act rashly in front of you?”

Daoist Xuanyuan immediately felt good when he heard this. This kid… had some foresight. That’s right, how could two immature brats like you compare to my elegance? Hehe, this kid is quite sensible. I suddenly can’t bear to do it. Why don’t I take back this delicate person? It’s not bad to have a pet.

“Haha… That’s right, that’s right.” After this round of flattery, Xuanyuan immediately felt refreshed and laughed.

Unexpectedly, Ye Qiu’s next words almost angered him to death.

“Senior, who are you? You’re the only cannon king in the world. You’re over seventy years old, but you can still intimidate the world and have countless women. There’s only one in the world after millions of years. How would we dare to act rashly in front of Senior? Compared to you, we are as pure as a piece of paper.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present immediately laughed unkindly.

“Haha, this kid… I think he can do it.”

“In all these years, he is the first junior who dares to speak to Xuanyuan like this.”

“Cannon King? Hmm… This title is very suitable.”

At this moment, even Lian Feng couldn’t help but cover her mouth, her eyes curved like crescents. In order to maintain her aloof persona, she ordered herself not to laugh. She only thought: This person is too interesting.

In the beginning, she thought that Ye Qiu was really afraid of Daoist Xuanyuan and was a little disappointed. After all, as the successor of the Heaven Mending Sect, their innate pride did not allow them to lower their heads. If Ye Qiu was really afraid, she might look down on him. Unexpectedly, this guy was… very hard.

She loved it.

Ye Qiu’s words instantly ignited Daoist Xuanyuan’s anger, and his killing intent instantly soared. In the beginning, he really thought that Ye Qiu was afraid of him and wanted to spare his life. Unexpectedly, this kid actually scolded him in a roundabout manner.

“Good kid, you’re courting death…”

In an instant, Daoist Xuanyuan’s right hand moved, and a few steel needles shot out in an exquisite manner.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this.

“Ghost King Needle?”

“This old fellow really has the intention to kill. He immediately used his killing move.”

Everyone’s hearts trembled, as if they could already see Ye Qiu’s death.

That Ghost King Needle was Daoist Xuanyuan’s famous Dharma artifact. There were eight needles, and each needle carried a different poison. This poison could injure a person’s soul and might take their life in an instant.

The eight needles flew over and were about to hit Ye Qiu. At such a close distance, unless he was prepared, it was impossible to resolve it.

“Senior Brother, be careful…” Lian Feng’s expression changed. She was about to raise the Four Symbols Cauldron to the top, but it was already too late.

Ding…

At this moment, when everyone thought that Ye Qiu was about to die, they suddenly heard a crisp sound of metal colliding.

Everyone looked over. At some point, a cauldron had appeared in front of Ye Qiu.

All of Xuanyuan’s Ghost King Needles were stopped by the Qiankun Cauldron Cauldron.

“This…” Daoist Xuanyuan was shocked. His meticulously planned sneak attack was actually known by Ye Qiu in advance and easily disintegrated?

A trace of surprise, greed, and confusion flashed across Xuanyuan’s eyes as he looked at the Qiankun Cauldron. “Kid, who are you? Do you dare to tell me your name…”

Daoist Xuanyuan questioned which orthodoxy Ye Qiu came from and why he had such a treasure!

Ye Qiu slowly put away the Qiankun Cauldron. His face was filled with a meaningful smile as he said, “Xuanyuan Cannon? Haha, since you’re so anxious to die, fine, I’ll play with you.”

Ye Qiu calmly flew out. He gently stretched out his right hand and continued, “Xuanyuan Cannon, Heaven Mending Sect, Ye Qiu, request for a fight…
