Using entries to cultivate immortality in chaotic times

Chapter 619: Chapter 221: Heaven’s Thunder Verdict!_4

“No, I had spoken harshly to Chen Qiu at the beginning.”

“At that time, I even yelled that Chen Qiu should come out and die now, otherwise I would ensure his Divine Soul was utterly annihilated, never to rise again.”

“This… This is too fake, isn’t it?”

“Fake, no problem,” the Buddhist Ancestor said seriously, “Ours was very fake too. You don’t really think Chen Qiu would believe it, right? This is mainly to give both sides a way out and to show that we are admitting defeat.”

“Show that you’re admitting defeat.”

“Next, we need to show some sincerity.”

“Here.”

The Buddhist Ancestor patted his thigh, then suddenly knelt down smoothly: “This is the key to survival. Not to hide it from you, my Cultivation on the Xuantian Continent is also top-notch. There are a few others with the same level of Cultivation, but not many can kneel as smoothly as I can.”

“And only after I offered up all ten parts of the Buddhist Sect’s possessions, did I manage to retrieve my life.”

“Not to speak of others, if Chen Qiu were right here before you, could you kneel?”

“Kneel?”

The expression of the Heavenly Axe Sect Master turned slightly ugly; indeed, he found it somewhat difficult to kneel. He was at the Peak of Void Refining, a sect leader, an exceedingly famous strong cultivator in Xuantian State, the creator of ‘Fourth Axe’ on top of the supreme Spell ‘Sky Splitting Axe’. Since childhood, he had been a Heavenly Pride!

He had never knelt before anyone in his life!

If he really had to kneel, indeed, there were some truths he couldn’t kneel to.

“Must I kneel?”

“Not really; at that time, many people on the Xuantian Continent didn’t kneel.”

“Then how did they survive?”

“Oh, they all died.”

“…”

After taking a deep breath, the Heavenly Axe Sect Master grimaced slightly, immediately stood up from his chair, walked to the side, and suddenly knelt down. This kneel seemed to strip him of the dignity of his entire life.

However…

It was this kneel that seemed to relieve him of all his mental burdens.

The second kneel, the third kneel, the fourth kneel — each one became more natural.

Afterwards, he rose and looked towards the Buddhist Ancestor: “Is this enough?”

“As long as the attitude is good and no trouble arises, it should basically be no problem.”

“What constitutes trouble?”

“Try not to let your disciples see you kneeling.”

“Afraid of losing face?”

“It’s not about losing face; I worry that your disciples might suddenly jump out and say, ‘Our Sect Leader would never submit to you, Evil Demon.’

“Makes sense.”

…

After respectfully sending off the Buddhist Ancestor and Bishan Palace Ancestor, they hid in a private room of a tavern in Duoduo City, exchanged glances, and looked at the Storage Ring filled with Spirit Stones on the table.

After a long time, the Buddhist Ancestor finally said somewhat emotionally, “Who would have thought that my first fortune in the Vast Continent would come like this, the Heavenly Axe Sect Master is quite generous.”

“I think…”

The Bishan Palace Ancestor propped his chin thoughtfully with one hand: “I think we could start a school specifically for those forces who have offended Chen Qiu and don’t know what to do, to perform risk mitigation.”

“Hmm…” the Buddhist Ancestor pondered for a moment before shaking his head, “Let’s forget it, the risk is too high. This seems a bit like living off Chen Qiu’s reputation, and I worry that Chen Qiu himself might come to us for risk mitigation.”

“Indeed.”

After another exchange of glances, both saw the shock in each other’s eyes and lapsed into silence.

After a long time.

The Buddhist Ancestor finally said with a complex expression, “How does Chen Qiu manage it, to become invincible upon just entering a Great Realm?”

“I remember it was like this back on the Xuantian Continent, right? Once into Nascent Soul, Nascent Soul was invincible, once into Divinity Transformation, Divinity Transformation was invincible.”

“Yeah.”

The elder from Bishan Palace said solemnly, “Back then, our Sect Leader of Bishan Palace was at the Peak of Divinity Transformation, and when Chen Qiu had just broken through to Divinity Transformation, just at the first level of Cultivation, he too was mercilessly killed by Chen Qiu on the spot.”

“Actually, when those who were refining voids blocked the Heavenly Palace Gate, I had roughly guessed the outcome.”

“Because this scene is all too familiar.”

“Indeed familiar,” the Buddhist Ancestor nodded and said with a sigh, “It’s a pity that the Buddhist Sect host of Xuantian State was foolish enough to give up his life like that. Luckily, I was smart enough not to run off to the Buddhist Sect back then.”

…

At that moment, the Heavenly Hall was empty, except for staff!

Only Chen Qiu and his group were there, everyone else had long avoided the place, not daring to come near the Heavenly Hall.

“Heart Demon Removal Hall?”

Chen Qiu, leading a group of Chao Tian Sect disciples, looked toward a small cabin within the Heavenly Hall and nodded thoughtfully. The Vast Continent truly lived up to its status as a second-tier continent, even having a special place for removing Heart Demons, which indeed could help the cultivators effectively remove their Heart Demons.

He then pushed the door and entered.

“Creeeak…”

Accompanied by the creaking sound of the wooden door, a burnt smell immediately wafted through.

“Hmm?”

Chen Qiu slightly frowned, only to see inside the cabin lay a body, charred and shrunken to the extent it was unrecognizable, before he waved his hand and looked towards the girl sitting behind the table: “What’s the situation with this corpse?”

The space inside was rather cramped.

There was only one table, behind which sat a girl wearing a veil.

At that moment, the girl, uncontrollably trembling as she sat in the chair, looked towards Chen Qiu with a voice full of fear and stuttered, “He… he was struck dead by your Void Refining Heavenly Tribulation… He was recounting his story at that time and had left shortly after finishing, but then he returned again, saying there was another Heart Demon.”

“Just then, your Void Refining Heavenly Tribulation started…”

“He didn’t have time to leave.”

“Is that so?”

Chen Qiu shook his head somewhat regretfully, “That’s a pity.”

“Didn’t you notice that the Void Refining Heavenly Tribulation became stronger because of him?” the girl sitting in the chair said, trembling.

“Not at all.”

“Oh oh.” Perhaps realizing that Chen Qiu wasn’t as ruthless as she had imagined, the girl’s fear somewhat lessened, “Actually, you… don’t need to feel too much regret. He wasn’t a good person, and you were executing Heaven’s will, not killing an innocent person recklessly.”

Chen Qiu nonchalantly waved his hand and glanced around the cabin casually, “No, I’m regretting that he died so easily; otherwise, I could have put him in my Demon Suppression Tower.”

There was nothing inside the cabin.

Just only one table.

Then he sat at the table, looking towards the girl with the veil: “Heart Demon Removal Master? What’s that and what use does it have?”

“It removes your Heart Demons…”

“What if I don’t have a Heart Demon?”

“Then it’s useless…”

“Understood.” Chen Qiu nodded and then walked outside, waving towards the group of Chao Tian Sect disciples behind him, “Line up one by one, go in and have your Heart Demons removed, to avoid being struck dead by Heart Demons in the future.”

Soon—

The first Chao Tian Sect disciple, with a serious expression, sat inside the cabin, looking towards the girl with the veil, patiently waiting.

“Fellow Daoist… what Heart Demon do you have?”

“Brother Qiu’s Cultivation is advancing too rapidly, I worry I can’t keep up with Brother Qiu and will be abandoned by him later. Does this count as a Heart Demon?”

“It does.”

“So, how do we resolve it?”

How to resolve…?

In the cabin, the girl with the veil remained silent in her spot for a long time, thinking how on earth to resolve this; she could only affirm it but damn sure can’t help you improve your cultivation. After a while, she finally spoke softly.

“Plan ahead for what you can do to shine even after being abandoned.”

“And…”

“Work hard in your cultivation, strive for improvement every day.”
