Qin Ming of the Third Realm Intimidated the Fiends
The Talking Finch bird is naturally gifted with eloquence, and this one, having already developed Divine Nature in Black White Mountain, is even more extraordinary. Its body emits a faint blue light, and its eyes are like black gemstones, extremely lively.
"It's Ning Siqi." Qin Ming was shocked and couldn't sit still. This good brother of his was still in the Second Realm, which was very dangerous in the Western Territory.
Talking Finch said, "He and Violet Lightning Princess are neighbors, located in the same area. That area is where Immortal Seed and Heavenly Demon Seed fight each other; it's quite bloody."
It followed the Violet Lightning Beast to the Western Territory, experiencing many thrilling scenes and witnessing the deaths of famous figures and Famous Fiend demons from Night Prefecture and the opposing demons.
"How do you know Ning Siqi?" Qin Ming asked, already putting on his armor and polishing his Mutton Fat Jade Iron Saber as he prepared to set off.
Talking Finch blinked her eyes and said, "Mountain Master, Little Finch 've done my homework to catch up with you. I've carefully researched the people who are close to you, and it seems that hard work pays off."
Then, with tears streaming down its face, it complained, "To reunite with the Mountain Lord, I chased you all the way from Black White Mountain to Kunling, only to have a brief meeting before you went on your way again. This time, I Little Finch my life to come to the Western Territory. With my small frame, facing the endless demons on the God's Fall Plain, every step I took felt like walking a tightrope."
"It will be more dangerous for you to come with me," Qin Ming said.
"I sigh deeply and wipe my tears..." The Talking Finch mimed wiping away tears with its small wings, but its eyes weren't wet at all. It rubbed its eyes hard until they turned red.
Without delaying its business, it quickly and fluently described the situation in that area.
In Taihe Town, where Ning Siqi lived, after a Old Senior of the Third Realm died in battle, a God Seed took over and defeated the demons on the opposite side.
Furthermore, in the subsequent conflict, this God Seed severely injured a Heavenly Demon Seed, almost crippling it and rendering it unable to fight again.
However, a few days later, he encountered an even more powerful genius from the demon camp, who turned out to be a Fiend Sword Immortal immortal, and was beheaded by the opponent.
Talking Finch said, "This is like breaking through a taboo, and the two sides have started fighting True Fire. The surrounding area has become bloody, and the daily conflicts are no longer minor border crossings, but bloody battles and fights to the death."
In adjacent areas, when Immortal Seed descends into battle, Heavenly Demon Seed immediately appears on the opposite side, engaging in fierce combat.
Subsequently, both sides continued to invite people, summoning powerful Immortal Seed, God Seed, and Heavenly Demon Seed to fight and battle there.
Neither the old demon on the other side nor the renowned figures from Night Prefecture intervened, silently watching these seeds clash, with casualties on both sides.
Talking Finch said, "In Huaian Town, where the Violet Lightning Beast Princess resides, there is a very powerful Four-Tusked White Elephant youth. When he fought against a Fiend Demon Seed, one of his tusks was broken, which was quite tragic. The demon on the other side ran away with his broken tusk still in its chest, which made him furious. He couldn't even reattach it."
Thunder King Bird nodded and said, "The conflict over there is indeed very intense and quite bloody. The two sides are fighting every day, and the old guys seem to be letting the seeded ones fight it out."
Soon, Qin Ming learned that several Seed Level Figure had arrived in that region, but Taihe Town, where Ning Siqi was located, only had an old man at the Third Realm temporarily in charge.
Given the tense atmosphere between the two camps, Taihe Town was indeed quite dangerous.
Qin Ming sensed that the situation there was somewhat critical and was worried about unforeseen circumstances. He decided not to go there physically and instead used his consciousness to merge with the Heavenly Light, intending to travel far away at high speed.
In the past, the first Extraordinary Art he obtained, the "Li Huo Jing" (Li Fire Scripture), was delivered to him by Ning Siqi from thousands of miles away in Red Haze City.
At that time, many people avoided him like the plague, and even kicked him when he was down, but Ning Siqi sold all her belongings to buy him a book of Extraordinary Art.
Qin Ming would never forget this kindness and would never allow anything to happen to Ning Siqi.
"You stay here and guard the place, just in case." He entrusted the Thunder King Bird, who could reach the Fourth Realm at any time, to watch over the house.
Although Yu Gensheng, Jin Yuan, and the others had just thoroughly ravaged the opposite side, they still couldn't let their guard down.
Talking Finch was stunned to see a Scorching Sun break free from Qin Ming's body.
"Mountain Lord, what are you doing...?"
"I've also been studying the methods of the Immortal Path, and I've made some progress so far," Qin Ming said. He quickly extinguished the dazzling Heavenly Light of the heavens, returned to peace, and shrunk to the size of a palm after transforming into human form.
He placed both the Torn Cloth and the small sword inside Heavenly Light's body.
"Let's go." Qin Ming sat cross-legged on the back of the Talking Finch.
"I never imagined that one day I, Little Finch, would be able to carry the Mountain Lord and become your mount." Talking Finch was somewhat excited; its small body had actually carried Qin Ming into the sky today.
Qin Ming adjusted his state and attached a portion of his Consciousness Spirit Light to the outside.
Otherwise, the pure Heavenly Light light would be too glaring.
Then, Talking Finch seemed to realize something and was extremely shocked, saying, "My God, Mountain Lord, you have already stepped into the Third Realm realm of the Immortal Path?"
"More or less," Qin Ming said.
Immediately, it felt a pang of disappointment and said, "Little Finch, I've been trying my best to catch up, and I've only just reached the threshold of the Second Realm. Mountain Lord, you've already reached the Third Realm... God, how come the gap is getting bigger and bigger!"
"Your progress isn't slow; it's already quite fast," Qin Ming comforted him.
Judging by its age alone, it's still a child in the human world, but this "Scum Bird" already has many offspring and boasts of its fatherly love as vast as a mountain.
It is indeed extraordinary, having developed Divine Nature very early on and having had Mortal Scripture, having used the Divine Nature of Giant Centipede that wanted to become a god to refine its claws, beak, feathers, and so on.
"I want to improve!" Talking Finch said, feeling that if things continued like this, the distance between her and the mountain lord would only grow further and further.
Qin Ming pondered that he could "give it some pointers," since some of the resources he had recently obtained from killing four Heavenly Demon Seed were only suitable for use by alien species.
He said, "No rush, I'll send you some things later."
Upon hearing Talking Finch became quite excited. She patted her chest with one wing and said, "Little Finch, you must be brave and diligent. Even if you can't keep up with the mountain lord in the future, you can still help deliver messages."
"You're moving a bit too slowly." Qin Ming began to "ride the bird" (a metaphor for his speed).
"Awooo!" Talking Finch a strange cry, feeling the air around her explode like thunder from the heavens. The terrifying speed made her dizzy.
Qin Ming frowned, as traveling by magical device was extremely taxing on him.
At his current level, it seems that only special items, such as Torn Cloth and Exotic Metal, are suitable for him to wield. No wonder they are rare treasures of heaven and earth, excelling in every aspect.
"I'll go first." Qin Ming disappeared into the night sky in the blink of an eye; he had already sensed where Taihe Town was.
Two hundred miles was nothing to him in his current state; he pierced through the night fog, traversed the sky, and was almost there in the blink of an eye.
He himself was somewhat obsessed with this speed; it was just too convenient.
In the night sky, he looked down upon the mountains and rivers, as if he had everything under his control. He himself seemed to have transformed from an ant-like state, achieving a leap in life and ascending to the heavens.
"Actually, if I think about it carefully, I've only gone from a ground ant to a flying ant; I still need to work hard." He was very clear-headed and not complacent.
In Taihe Town, many people trembled with fear, hiding in cellars or keeping their doors tightly shut, their hearts filled with intense unease. A great battle was raging in the fields more than ten miles away, and the roars of demons and the long howls of human masters could be clearly heard in the town.
Those who could move have already done so, leaving only the elderly, women, and children who have no other choice but to pray for a great victory for Night Prefecture and the defeat of the demons.
Qin Ming streaked across the sky above the town, cutting through the night fog, and appeared on the battlefield a dozen miles away.
Clearly, both sides have far more troops than they need in this area, mainly because they are both fighting with True Fire, calling on their allies and calling in reinforcements.
Therefore, even though it was just a small town, there were quite a few cultivators participating in the battle, each with dozens of people.
Qin Ming spotted his old friend Ning Siqi immediately; Ning Siqi was covered in blood.
The skin on his shoulder and right chest was torn and rolled up; although not fatal, the injuries were quite gruesome.
His opponent was a four-armed, humanoid demon with sharp claws. Although it had already been severely injured, the more it was injured, the more ferocious it became, and it began to fight desperately.
Puff!
A streak of light flashed, and a bloody hole appeared between the eyebrows of the four-armed demon, which then fell straight down.
"Huh?" Ning Siqi was stunned. What was going on? His opponent had died suddenly without him even seeing who had come to his aid.
"Siqi, are you alright?" Liuguang flew back and spoke.
"You are... Qin Ming, how could you be in this state?" Ning Siqi saw the glowing little figure, no bigger than the palm of her hand, with Qin Ming's appearance.
He was immediately shocked and said, "You've broken through again? And you're cultivating two paths simultaneously, and you're also proficient in the Immortal Path's techniques?"
"Hmm!" Qin Ming nodded, thinking that temporarily associating himself with the Immortal Path wasn't a bad idea.
Ning Siqi said anxiously, "Why did you leave your physical body and come here directly? This is too dangerous. Unless you reach a high level, there are many ways to deal with your Divine Intent on the battlefield."
Qin Ming said, "I heard there's a rather dire situation here, so I traveled all this way to check on things. It's alright, I can protect myself."
Ning Siqi's eyes were red. In this life-or-death situation, his old brother was the most reliable. This was clearly someone who came specifically to come to his aid, risking his life to go to the battlefield in the form of astral projection.
Feeling a warmth in his heart, he shook his head and said, "I'm fine. I've gotten used to this fighting rhythm these past few days. You should quickly return to your physical body."
Qin Ming said, "No rush. Now that I'm here, I'll lend you a hand."
Ning Siqi had heard that, without reaching a higher level, a person's Divine Intent leave the body like a rootless duckweed, and if this continues for a long time, it will suffer serious damage.
"I'm in great shape!" Qin Ming said again with certainty.
"Then go help Elder An and the others." Ning Siqi pointed to the distance, where an old man was fighting against a powerful demon with a snake's head and a human body.
In addition, there were six or seven middle-aged men, all of whom were in the Third Realm and had been invited to help deal with the monsters in the Third Realm.
The battle was fierce, with Spirit Artifact flying through the air, spells unleashed, and the Heavenly Light of the New Life Evolver sweeping across the night sky. Both sides were already bleeding.
Elsewhere, the people and demons of the Second Realm were also bloodthirsty, with corpses lying on the ground.
Ning Siqi charged forward, and on his shoulder, Qin Ming transformed into a rainbow light, directly traversing the battlefield and severing the head of the snake demon fighting against Elder An with a soft thud.
In an instant, he rushed to another spot, blood splattering everywhere, and another demon of the Third Realm died, its skull blown off and blood splattering everywhere.
"Retreat!" The demon ranks were thrown into chaos. Their two most powerful leaders were killed, and they immediately realized that a powerful human had arrived, and they couldn't hold him off.
But in the blink of an eye, two more demons at the Third Realm were beheaded!
In the blink of an eye, the four powerful demons were dead.
Qin Ming, standing at the Third Realm, could kill ordinary demons as easily as entering an empty field, as long as he wasn't facing Heavenly Demon Seed.
"Brother, let's stop for now!" An Zhongyi said, secretly transmitting his voice, saying that these demons were all subordinates of a Heavenly Demon Seed, and if they were all killed, that Heavenly Demon Seed would most likely come down in person, at which point no one could stop him.
He further explained, "Right now, all the Heavenly Demon Seed are in other towns, fighting and battling against the Immortal Seed and God Seed. We don't have any Seed Level Figure here to oversee things, so we're planning to wait until the neighboring town has killed that Heavenly Demon Seed before we break through, otherwise she'll retaliate immediately."
Qin Ming intended to kill them all and, incidentally, cause trouble for that Heavenly Demon Seed.
However, considering that his physical body had not yet arrived, and believing that what he said made sense, and to avoid attracting demons they could not fight, they temporarily gave up.
"Alright, spare them for now, wait for my true form to arrive!" Qin Ming said.
"Who is this expert?" People nearby gathered around.
They were shocked. Who was this person? Judging from the intensity of their Consciousness Spirit Light, they seemed to be at the Third Realm. How dare they abandon their physical body to fight for such a long time?
Many people speculated that this might be a Immortal Seed, who, being too far away to arrive in time, had taken this risky rescue.
"This is my brother!" Ning Siqi introduced.
He was overjoyed and said, "I told you before that I have a brother with Divine Ability, but you didn't believe me. Now you see, he's come to find me."
Qin Ming felt somewhat guilty, because he hadn't spent much time with him in the past, fearing that his troubles would implicate him.
Ning Siqi, however, didn't care and directly told people he knew that he had a brother Qin Ming.
Qin Ming believed that, given the current environment, neither the Cui Household, the Li Household, nor the Lao Cao family would dare to target him.
Moreover, even if those people want to retaliate, they should be prepared for retaliation from Lu Zizai and his group.
"Ah, didn't you say before that your brother was on the New Life Path?" Even the old man An Zhongyi was taken aback.
Ning Siqi said, "My brother is Heavenly Prodigy who cultivates both paths simultaneously. As everyone knows, progress on the New Life Path is slow, but he has also achieved something on the Immortal Path, and he has now broken through."
Qin Ming thought his reasoning was good; he could indeed use the "Immortal Skin" to disguise himself, covering his body with a dense layer of mixed Consciousness Spirit Light, making him look exactly like Immortal Path Disciple.
Perhaps, someone on the Immortal Path might still extend an olive branch to him.
"Truly a peerless genius!"
The group of people were immediately stunned. It is remarkable to have outstanding achievements on one path, but to have outstanding performances on two paths would naturally cause a sensation.
Just like Tang Jin's master, who is admired by many people and is considered to be an extremely remarkable Grandmaster, and now he has even stepped into the Ancestor Realm.
"Brother, you've achieved such great things on the Immortal Path. I think, based on what you just did, you're comparable to Immortal Seed, right?"
"Hiss!"
A group of people immediately gasped in shock at the night fog.
Then, someone advised, "Brother, there's nothing wrong here anymore. You should quickly return to your physical body. Spending too much time Spirit Travel in spirit will cause damage and may harm your foundation."
These people all spoke up, expressing their deep gratitude to him.
"Alright!" Qin Ming nodded, having temporarily resolved the trouble here, and prepared to return first before personally arriving in person.
"Hmm?" Suddenly, he sensed something amiss. There was Yao Qi flowing in the distance. Sure enough, a few breaths later, the shadowy demons reappeared, emerging from the night fog.
"Those demons have returned!" someone said in a deep voice.
The west is mainly a vast plain, covered with dense forests. Now, dark shadows appear in the forest, including giant spiders and wolf-headed monsters, all stained with blood, exuding a confident air, no longer showing their previous dishevelment and fear.
"Could it be that Heavenly Demon Seed himself?" Instantly, someone's face stiffened, their body tensed, and their heart sank.
They had always hoped that the Heavenly Demon Seed would be defeated in a distant battle and ultimately killed, rather than having her personally come to this battlefield.
Immediately, the people in Taihe Town showed signs of tension and unease. No one understood better than them how terrifying the destructive power of a Heavenly Demon Seed could be in the same realm.
They once had a God Seed being stationed here, but unfortunately, he died in battle.
"It's alright!" Qin Ming said. Although it was only two words and his voice was not loud, it inexplicably calmed the restless hearts of many people.
Without wasting any time, he transformed into a streak of light, traversing the devastated forest destroyed by the great battle, and single-handedly charged to the edge of the wolf-infested woodland ahead.
Immediately, a group of demons stirred. They had previously witnessed this figure formed from a wisp of Consciousness Spirit Light slaying a powerful figure who had killed them, and they felt a sense of fear.
"You all step back, don't worry, the Heavenly Demon Seed will subdue him!" an old demon said, striding forward.
This is an Elephant Fiend, with a robust humanoid body, but its head still retains its original appearance, and its enormous head is as big as a millstone.
He held a Jade Lotus Platform in his hand and offered it up directly.
With a whoosh, the lotus platform glowed, auspicious clouds billowed, and layers upon layers of colorful clouds bloomed. All the lotus petals opened, and a woman stepped out from within.
She wore Five-Colored Lotus Armor and held a long spear. Her beauty was matched by an imposing aura, making her a truly heroic figure.
"She's Heavenly Demon Seed!" Ning Siqi shouted from behind, his face showing anxiety as he worried about his good brother and feared something might happen to him.
The woman was tall and slender, with flowing black hair, sharp eyes, and an extremely powerful aura. However, she was clearly not the real person. Without saying a word, she charged forward with a long spear in hand.
Qin Ming was about to use his nascent Spiritual Field to test his magic here and try to kill the Heavenly Demon Seed, but he quickly remembered that he was now a "Immortal Seed" and had to give up.
Immediately, he made a gesture of drawing Sword-Drawing with both hands, and an endless rain of golden light rose up. Then, with a clang, a dazzling Immortal Sword appeared, covered with a large number of golden characters, which wrapped around the sword and instantly illuminated the entire dark forest.
Moreover, a terrifying Sword Qi Storm, centered on Qin Ming, expanded outwards in all directions, astonishing the world, with endless golden characters surging and sweeping across the land.
It was a terrifying surge of Sword Qi. As Qin Ming fully drew his golden sword, it shone into the hearts of many demons like a sword that could sever the soul.
Their faces turned deathly pale, and they all retreated in terror. Even though they were some distance away and not in the center of the battlefield, they felt as if they were about to be torn apart by the Sword Qi Storm.
Puff!
However, things were far more serious than they had imagined. The demons that were closer were affected by the Sword Qi Storm, and their Mental Field was damaged by the sword intent that pierced their hearts.
Some demons coughed up blood, while others were torn to pieces.
Qin Ming unleashed the Sun Immortal Sword Art. Without the weakness of Li Guang, he didn't need to build up his strength. The moment he gripped the sword, a golden Immortal Sword condensed, and then he slashed at his opponent.
Therefore, just as the woman in the Five-Colored Lotus Armor charged forward with her spear, he simultaneously swung his golden sword.
With a clang, sparks flew through the dense forest, Sword Qi crisscrossed, and spear light shot out, destroying swathes of trees, even centuries-old trees were blasted into dust.
The woman fired three shots in quick succession, and with a final bang, she exploded into a shower of light and disappeared.
Behind them, the Old Elephant demon was shocked. The three spear intents of a Heavenly Demon Seed were instantly shattered. Was it time to kill, or had the young man forcefully destroyed them?
He felt as if the young man had shattered the spear intent with his golden longsword!
"Retreat... retreat!" The Old Elephant demon stammered. He was in charge of supervising the army from the rear. When the Heavenly Demon Seed gave him these three spear intents, it clearly stated that they should not be used lightly, but reserved to stifle the Heavenly Prodigy on the other side.
It can be said that the Heavenly Demon Seed was extremely arrogant, wanting to kill Quasi-Immortal Seed with three spear intents, or even directly slaughter Immortal Seed!
In the end... not a single hair was killed!
The Old Elephant demon was starting to have doubts about life. Had there been something wrong with the spear intent given to him by the future female Heavenly Fiend? It shouldn't have been destroyed like this.
Qin Ming spoke, "I gave you a chance to escape, but you insisted on coming to your deaths. Since that's the case, then you can all stay here!"
He charged forward, wielding a golden immortal Immortal Sword, like a dazzling Divine Rainbow traversing the night sky, carrying a vast amount of golden characters. The Immortal Sword swept across the front, instantly unleashing a boundless Sword Qi aura that swept away all obstacles.
With a deafening roar, the woodland ahead exploded and continued to shatter, while the fleeing demons screamed in agony one by one.
The nearby demons exploded into pieces, only to be swept away again by the golden characters, their forms and souls annihilated.
The demons who fled quickly from afar were naturally highly skilled, but even they could not survive the terrifying Sword Qi Storm.
With a series of thuds, they were cut in half at the waist, their bodies scattered among the broken pieces of the woodland.
Then, the area fell silent.
The demons were forced to remain silent, unable to utter another sound, their blood already staining the forest.
The people on Night Prefecture's side were all petrified, speechless.
This scene shocked them greatly; a person, without even arriving in his physical form, swept away a group of demons in a state of Spirit Travel Consciousness Spirit Light!
"This... they've all been killed, wiped out!" An Zhongyi came to his senses, his old face trembling slightly. Is this what Immortal Seed is? It can kill through opponents of the same realm.
He believed that he probably wouldn't be able to withstand even three moves, or even one move, from this young man.
"The true form of the Heavenly Demon Seed may exact bloody revenge on us," a middle-aged man in the Third Realm said.
Qin Ming spoke up, "Where is she? In the next town, right? Since you're worried she might take action, I'll try to deal with her true form now!"
"Don't take the risk!" Ning Siqi immediately stopped him, not wanting his good brother to face the terrifying Heavenly Demon Seed in this state.
Qin Ming said, "It's alright, there's still time. I'll go take a look around and give it a try!"
Everyone was shocked by his domineering style. His true form hadn't even arrived yet, and his partially Pure Yang Transformation consciousness dared to go and kill Heavenly Demon Seed on his own?
"Lord Mountain Master..."
Just then, Talking Finch arrived, panting heavily. It was clearly a small, bright, pale blue bird, but it was as tired as Old Dog, panting heavily and sticking out its tongue.
It landed nearby and said, "Mountain Lord, are you really still capable of fighting? Then go and take a look at Huaian Town next door. I just passed by there and saw several Immortal Seed and Heavenly Demon Seed fighting fiercely. I'm worried something might have happened there."
It was a little hesitant and embarrassed. The Violet Lightning Beast was over there, and it was somewhat worried. After all, it had been following that princess recently and had received a lot of care from her.
It's a grateful little bird, and now it wants to ask a top-tier Immortal Seed like Qin Ming for help.
"Okay, let's go take a look." Qin Ming nodded.
He had traveled a long way and time was precious, so he set off first and arrived at Huaian Town, more than twenty miles away, in the blink of an eye, and then entered the battlefield.
Qin Ming immediately spotted the shimmering purple-haired princess, the Violet Lightning Beast Princess who had once ridden alongside him across Golden Chicken Ridge.
She had changed quite a bit since I last saw her; a pair of jade dragon horns had grown on her head, radiating an exceptionally brilliant light.
With a whoosh, Qin Ming traversed the night sky and landed on one of the dragon horns of the Violet Lightning Beast.
