Still the Master

If it weren't for the Two Figurines' actions, Qin Ming would have gladly accepted the title "My Lord" with a smile.

As for now, he simply nodded calmly, still accepting it with a smile. He greeted it with a gentle smile, what's wrong with a simple "My Lord"? He earned it through his own abilities.

Could we possibly ask him to "go back"? Or even to be more cautious and deliberate about the title of chairman? That's impossible.

It wasn't that Qin Ming was being tough; it was mainly that his hastily changed words were useless and only made him seem more guilty.

Rather than that, he might as well keep everything as usual.

The extraordinary nature of these Two Figurines is enough to show that the ancients had a very deep understanding of this matter.

At this moment, Little Worm Chong exuded a sinister Evil Qi, and when he met Qin Ming's gaze, Qin Ming's heart skipped a beat.

Qin Ming sighed inwardly. With One Qi Transforms into Three Mings. He had inadvertently pushed open the three Ancient Portals, and it was truly difficult to predict whether they led to Abyss or to a land of great light.

In particular, the unknown territory behind that door has recovered too quickly.

The president smiled and said, "My lord, are you a little nervous?"

Qin Ming stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Not long ago, the scene was very grand. When facing that tomb owner, I split into two Mings in one breath, and my mind is slightly tired."

The president, with her graceful figure, approached from the night sky, her snow-white robes fluttering as if she were dancing. She spoke, "My lord, would you like me to help you relax your shoulders and neck?"

She was all smiles and very friendly today, but instead of making Qin Ming feel flattered, she sent chills down his spine.

Qin Ming calmed himself down and then spoke frankly, saying, "President, something's not right with you."

The president's silver, silky hair shone brightly. Upon hearing this, she glanced sideways at him, thinking that this so-called master really didn't know how to speak.

Qin Ming was highly focused, but unfortunately he couldn't detect her emotional fluctuations and didn't know what she was thinking.

He simply sensed that the president's spirituality had increased once again.

On ordinary days, she is like being shrouded in the cool moonlight, possessing a kind of ethereal and sacred beauty, seemingly distant and elusive. But today, her every smile and frown is more like that of a person of flesh and blood.

The president turned her head to look at her, her eyes sparkling, her smile bright and elegant, and said, "I just had a feeling, haven't I massaged your shoulders and back before?"

Qin Ming stood calmly and composed, but his heart was in turmoil. Wasn't she still unconscious when she used to order the three of them around? How could she remember that?

Back then, whether it was the chairman, Two Figurines, or Little Worm, they were not only free henchmen but also well-deserved followers. Serving tea and water, massaging legs, and pressing necks and backs were common occurrences for them.

Even when Qin Ming ate the Crimson God Insect, someone stood by his side to peel off the Metal Insect shell for him and to pour him wine.

As for the president, she naturally participated as well. Her slender, jade-like hands were particularly skillful, fair and translucent, as she personally fed him.

"What are you thinking about?" Qin Ming did not give a direct answer.

As the president approached, Lingering a bright and clear light, he stood beside Qin Ming and said, "In a daze, my physical instincts revealed to me all sorts of things from the past. In some hazy fragments, I truly did my duty, sharing the burdens of my lord and allowing you to relax."

She raised her eyes, spoke slowly, her voice still gentle and refined, without a trace of anger.

Qin Ming rubbed his forehead. She even knew about things before her resurrection? What secrets could there possibly be?

Then, in a moment of resonance, he and the Little Worm looked at each other. The latter had deep eyes and a smile that was somewhat eerie.

Qin Ming suddenly realized that the method of "One Qi Transforms into Three Mings" was truly a forbidden technique. He had never thought of giving them consciousness.

"My lord, what are you thinking?" the guild leader asked in return.

Qin Ming wondered what was wrong with her. Had her Mortal World, Divine Nature aura diminished, or had she awakened more memories and was acting this way on purpose, using the Two Figurines figures to scare him?

He considered that, for the moment—it didn't matter to him.

The Chairman, the Two Figurines, and the Little Worm can only unleash the ancient techniques under extreme circumstances; normally, the Ancient Portals behind them is impossible to open.

Qin Ming felt that he should take it in stride and let things take their natural course.

He believes that the more one lowers one's stance, the more counterproductive it will be.

At the same time, he asked himself: Am I easily frightened? Of course not.

Therefore, Qin Ming turned to look at her, his expression gentle and composed, and said, "The past is somewhat hazy? That's simple, just relive it. But I must state that you were willing back then, as for now, it's up to you."

Upon hearing this, the president turned to look at him and said, "You mean, you want me to massage your back again?"

Her profile was perfect; I really didn't expect Qin Ming to be so calm now.

Qin Ming smiled and said, "A shoulder massage is fine too."

The guild leader's expression stiffened slightly, then she smiled, gracefully approaching Qin Ming from behind, and said, "My lord, I've arrived."

Qin Ming nodded reservedly and said, "Mm."

Then, a pair of delicate hands pressed down on his shoulders and neck, as warm as jade, applying pressure. Initially, the pressure was moderate, but then it increased.

Qin Ming's heart was tense. Deep within his flesh and blood, Chaos Force flowed, ready to erupt at any moment, unafraid of external intrusion.

The person massaging his shoulders and neck from behind was someone of immense importance. If word got out, those who knew the chairman's identity would be in an uproar and utterly shocked, because it was simply unbelievable.

Just like the Old Furnace, it has now completely petrified.

It was already lost in thought; was Little Qin's approach really that unconventional?

Its inner voice cried out: Mingzi, what are you doing? You're playing with fire and getting burned.

Qin Ming naturally found it difficult to relax, and anyone else would have been even more likely to have their hair stand on end and their muscles tense up like a block of iron.

He appeared relaxed and spoke in a calm tone, saying, "President, you used a bit too much force."

The president smiled faintly, "Is that so? Golden threads are interwoven in your flesh and blood, Black Hole emerge in the shadows, Chaos Force flows. If I hadn't used the Myriad Aperture Illumination Art, I wouldn't even be able to pinch your shoulder with my fingers."

Qin Ming resonated with the Little Worm and the Two Figurines, and they all looked in this direction at the same time.

As fellow ancient people with astonishing status, the president was indeed somewhat uncomfortable being stared at like that.

Although she is still unable to fully comprehend her past or understand her former life, she knows that she once held a very high position.

Being stared at like this by two ancient figures of the same level would make anyone feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Qin Ming turned around and said, "How about another spar? If you beat me, you won't have to call me master anymore."

Upon hearing this, the chairman immediately raised his head and said, "Are you going easy on me?"

"You're overthinking it." Even if Qin Ming had such thoughts, once she exposed them, he couldn't possibly put them into action. If he were to bow down to such a powerful figure, he would never be able to hold his head high again. From then on, their roles would be reversed.

Qin Ming had originally intended to maintain harmony with her, but now he had no choice but to go down this dark path.

He suddenly turned around, revealing his True Form behind him. The night sky was torn apart by a pair of giant hands, and countless stars fell from the sky. The sun and moon changed, thunder roared, and the flowers of myriad laws bloomed.

Qin Ming was clad in Jade Suit Sewn with Gold Threads, and in the shadows behind him, layers of Black Hole vortexes appeared.

He raised his hand and reached out to grab the silver-haired woman.

The chairman immediately waved his hand and said, "Wait a minute, for now I'm willing to accept defeat."

Qin Ming stared at her, sighing inwardly: If she pushes me too far and releases her Secret Treasure, unleashing her immortal energy, I think I might really be no match for her.

He said, "How about this, we'll treat each other as equals from now on?"

The president said, "No need, I'll win it back myself next time."

"Are you sure?" Qin Ming asked. Judging from the current situation, it would be quite difficult for the current president to turn things around.

Qin Ming was very confident in himself. As long as it didn't involve the methods left behind by the Supreme Experts ancient beings, what could he possibly do to him?

Suddenly, his expression changed, and he said, "Two Figurines, what a disaster!"

The Two Figurines were still absorbing Dragon Qi and other Divine Substance, flying towards him like a tidal wave, making him feel like a Fleshly Abyss.

In this great collision, many Dragon Silkworm exploded and turned into ashes, leaving very few pieces of flesh and blood. The Two Figurines were so frantically plundering that even the silkworm flesh collected by the Little Worm became somewhat dull.

"President, you must hurry and help me collect the Dragon Medicine!" In Qin Ming's view, silkworm meat was the Dragon Medicine.

Suddenly, a streak of light flashed across the sky, and Divine Rosy Radiance illuminated the desolate land.

Even the Old Furnace flew out. According to it, the Dragon Silkworm is a rare and precious tonic, and it can be used in conjunction with other Rare Flowers and Exotic Herbs to refine Great Medicine.

Qin Ming immediately stuffed all the silkworm meat into the Torn Cloth, otherwise the essence Pass By too quickly.

At this moment, the Two Figurines, like gluttonous beasts, were still devouring endlessly.

"Hmm, I didn't expect to find this."

Qin Ming discovered the Exotic Metal Nails, but unfortunately only three of the nine remained; the other six were likely taken away by the Ancestral Dragon Pearl.

The three divine nails, in black, white, and red, are each as long as an adult's palm and are engraved with many mysterious patterns; they are definitely not ordinary objects.

"This trip was worthwhile; we've obtained the Dragon Medicine and the Divine Nails. It's a pity that the Five-Colored Jade Book was stolen."

It was a long time before things returned to calm.

"You're still willing to enter that dark space?" Qin Ming asked in surprise. He thought that as the guild leader's spiritual energy increased, her vigilance would also increase.

In the end, she still had to go in.

Something's wrong!

After Qin Ming escorted her inside, he immediately communicated with Yellow Gauze Canopy Umbrella and asked, "What were the behaviors of these three bodies deep within the Torn Cloth Space?"

"No abnormalities were observed," Yellow Gauze Canopy Umbrella responded.

In particular, Qin Ming has now imprisoned the three of them separately, while Little Yellow is currently mainly following the chairman.

Qin Ming pondered for a moment and said, "Could it be that they know some of the secrets of the Torn Cloth? Old Cloth, did you hear that? Are those three dead or alive? Could they be planning to raid my house?"

He suddenly realized that the three people he had kidnapped had become a hot potato.

They went from being capable henchmen and loyal followers to becoming mysterious and dangerous.

Qin Ming muttered to himself, "The living get a break every now and then, but if the dead cause trouble, we'll lock you up forever."

He looked at the Emperor's Umbrella, shrouded in purple qi and radiating divine light, and said, "Little Yellow, haven't I been good enough to you? Don't actually run off with the guild leader and keep anything from her."

Yellow Gauze Canopy Umbrella, replied, "Don't worry, I know very well what's important and who's on our One of Us."

Qin Ming asked it for help to erase some traces that shouldn't exist here.

Finally, he soared into the air, stepped onto a Primal Chaos Golden Bridge, and disappeared into the horizon.

In the distance, in the night sky, Six-Tusked White Elephant, flapping its large ears, was soaring when it suddenly spotted the golden bridge approaching from afar, and its spirits immediately lifted.

"Great Sage!" it greeted him warmly.

Coming from the Aristocratic Clan traditional horse breeders, its expertise in the relevant field is truly outstanding.

For example, qualities like obedience, compliance, and loyalty are fully demonstrated in the instant they meet.

Then, the Six-Tusked White Elephant's vision went black as it was struck by Qin Ming's punch and, caught off guard, fainted.

Qin Ming said, "Little Yellow, see if there's any way to erase some of its memories, so that even if someone tries to trace it back later, they won't be able to detect it."

It's all because Qin Ming is kind-hearted.

Otherwise, the most effective solution is to eliminate the Six-Tusked White Elephant.

"No problem." Yellow Gauze Canopy Umbrella, indeed had the means to address the issue.

"My head hurts so much, Great Sage, what just happened?" After a long while, the Six-Tusked White Elephant awoke.

"It's alright!" Qin Ming sat on its back and began his journey home.

In the Six-Tusked White Elephant's understanding, their search for the group of Earth Immortal was unsuccessful, and they returned empty-handed.

Then, Qin Ming returned it to the Bodhisattva's Dojo.

"So even I have my limits."

Deep in a mountain range, Qin Ming ate a piece of roasted Dragon Silkworm meat, but found that it didn't have the effect he had expected.

"That's right, I only recently broke through to the Grandmaster Domain, so it's not suitable for me to break through immediately." He carefully comprehended the situation and realized something was amiss.

The path of spiritual practice, besides having "Law of Weighted Momentum," also has even more severe "Great Realm Obstacle," such as the "obstacle of sectarianism."

The so-called "barrier" refers to the fact that the human body has its limits, and after a chicken has reached a relatively high level, it needs a buffer and time to accumulate experience.

At the same time, this is also to expel any toxins from past use of Treasured Medicine.

The Great Realm Obstacle varies from person to person; the time required for this buffer period differs drastically from person to person.

Some people may only need a six-month grace period to repay their debts, while others may need to wait decades.

Qin Ming silently observed himself and realized that he probably wouldn't be able to stay stagnant for long.

Although he has only been a sect leader for a short time, it doesn't seem like a big problem if he were to forcibly break through the barrier between realms.

However, in order to achieve perfection and avoid leaving any future troubles for Qing, he planned to wait a while, during which time he could study the scriptures and wait for Xiang Lingwu and Little Wu to escape.

Two days later, the clouds burst open, and multiple Divine Rainbow plowed across the sky. It was clearly the passage of Earth Immortal, and some mountain peaks along the way were grazed and shattered.

"You guys are so slow," Qin Ming thought to himself.

The main force exploring the Longevity Tomb in another territory only learned of the incident involving the outer members after so long.

The main reason was that the three Saint Disciple completely lost contact, which eventually attracted the Earth Immortal.

"This... is a little scary!"

Qin Ming inserted his physical body into the chicken cloth, his spirit attached to the Old Cloth, lying dormant in silence. Even so, the pressure made his heart pound and his scalp tingle.

This was merely Earth Immortal, hurrying along the way.

In this day and age, the immortals of the Earth Immortal are the heavens!

Even though it was Two Figurines, the power that emerged when its Secret Treasure was opened was only at the level of Earth Immortal. He was using the Dao Rhythm Surges of Heaven and Earth to slay the Earth Immortal of the Dragon Silkworm Clan.

In the distance, the Earth Immortal immortal roared, and some nearby mountain peaks collapsed on the spot, leaving the entire land crisscrossed with black cracks several feet wide everywhere.

The main team exploring the Longevity Tomb spent three days rummaging through this area, finally tracing back to Qingqu along the direction the Ancestral Dragon Pearl had gone.

However, they knew that such an extremely dangerous Longevity Tomb involved a "Living Tomb," and in the end, it would probably come to nothing, and they would find nothing.

During this time, two Earth Immortal visited the Bodhisattva's Dojo, but upon seeing a Golden Body Arhat there, they immediately withdrew their oppressive aura.

They dared not be disrespectful to the Great Thunderclap, even though he had only partially Spiritual Root and enlightenment and had Spirit Travel through a golden Buddhist gate.

Moon Queen, Qin Ming returned to the Bodhisattva's Dojo.

Many monks have departed, leaving only a few, including the Buddhist Buddha Son Miao Di and Miao Yin, who are still contemplating the Meaning of Reincarnation.

Qin Ming also sat quietly here, spending his days studying the Dao's Sky Supporting Force, hoping to completely integrate it into the Within Chaos Force.

He studied it carefully, not daring to underestimate it.

Because, although the Sky Bearing Scripture appears to be a classic text, it actually contains countless Extraordinary Art techniques and doctrines, such as the True Scripture of the Power Domain and the immortal scriptures of the Demon Race Body Refining Immortal Scripture.

The <Sky Bearing Scripture> is the most powerful among the major Ancestral Court on the New Life Path!

The more Qin Ming pondered, the more he was drawn in. As he delved deeper into the practice, he gradually became so engrossed that he lost himself in it. In a daze, he found himself transforming into Dragon-Snake, undergoing a metamorphosis, preparing to face torrential rain and lightning, and yearning to Nirvana Soaring into the sky.

"I see echoes of the Initial Frameworks of Sky Bearing Scripture '."

Qin Ming delved deeper into his research, and slowly, he saw a giant trying to tear apart the night sky and lift up the heavens.

"Two months have passed?" Qin Ming was surprised. Has time really flown by?

The difficulty of Jeff's "Sky Bearing Scripture" lies not in its lack of thorough study, but in the sheer number of secret scriptures it encompasses, all fused together into a single, extremely complex and profound text.

Qin Ming's analysis of a classic text is equivalent to facing Various Scriptures.

In particular, the difficulty of integrating the Sky Supporting Force into the Silk Book Method and dissolving it into the Chaos Force was extremely high.

"Actually, the Sixth Realm, Primordial Unity, is the right time to integrate various techniques. Right now, I should just focus on practicing my own True Form. Integrating the various energies from the Various Ancestral Courts is actually a bit premature."

However, since he had already started, Qin Ming had no intention of stopping, and advancing his course was no big deal.

The main point is that there are still many things to do and a long road ahead, Tathagata Force), "Jade Clarity Force Six Royal Force), and "Liu Yu Jin" (六御劲).

Qin Ming asked, "Why haven't the two brothers inside the Black Lotus of Reincarnation come out yet?"

He already knew that things had progressed to this point, and Xiang Lingwu and Little Wu had passed the critical period; all that was left was to wait for things to calm down.

The Buddha Son Miao Di, said, "It will probably take several more months before they successfully break through the cycle of reincarnation."

Buddha, with a Miao Yin full of envy, said, "They are traversing the Great Reincarnation!"

Shortly after, Qin Ming spoke with Old Furnace: "Senior Furnace, you should return to the Tushita Palace Dojo first. Take the Dragon Medicine, Crimson God Paste, and other items back with you so that Qing Yue can take them as soon as possible to improve her strength. After all, she has a crucial test to face later."

The Old Furnace vibrated gently, as if nodding, and said, "Yes, I've been gone for a long time, it really should go back."

Qin Ming asked it for the route map in detail, saying, "Don't worry, there will definitely be enough time. I will personally go there and stand behind Qing Yue."

"Alright!" Old Furnace was decisive, saying nothing more, and left that very day.

As Qin Ming saw them off, he whispered, "When I arrive, the brilliant disciples of the Tushita Palace, those extraordinary talents of this world, will soon have to see just how amazing they are."

Time flies; it has been three months since Ten Thousand Dragons Carrying the Tomb disappeared.

Qin Ming studied the Sky Supporting Force, constantly integrating techniques and refining his True Form, achieving remarkable results. During this period, cracks appeared in his body, but he persevered and revived.

He should proceed normally, without incorporating the True Scripture of other Ancestral Court. Even his own Chaos Force, which he cultivates, is already extremely dangerous at the first stage, with the risk of exploding.

After all, the True Form Tribulation is a notorious and deadly calamity in the New Life System!

If people knew that Qin Ming was still absorbing the Sky Supporting Force while undergoing his Undergoing True Form Tribulation, they would definitely think he had gone mad.

"I haven't taken any Dragon Medicine yet, and this quiet cultivation is quite good. I've detected my limits and discovered many secrets about the tomb."

Qin Ming's expression was serious. Through his arduous cultivation, he often entered moments of Mind Clarity, gaining a clear understanding of himself and his future path.

"Without other fortuitous opportunity or taking Strange Medicine, relying solely on daily meditation and cultivation, it would take me about six or seven years to reach the next level of enlightenment." This is his specific quantitative result.

No matter which path you choose, the further you go from here, the more difficult it becomes.

While Strange Medicine elixir could significantly shorten the time required, it is not a panacea. Many Top Great Sects have abundant resources, so why can't they cultivate world-class young masters?

Because everyone's innate talents and abilities are different, each person needs a different "cooling-off period" when they reach a critical stage. Furthermore, the formidable Great Realm Obstacle and other factors in the universe impose even more restrictions.

"This means that if I choose a secluded place to cultivate in seclusion, and do not leave for many years without relying on external resources, I should be able to become an ancestral master in sixty years."

At that time, Qin Ming was only in his eighties.

This speed is astonishing; it's already considered extremely fast.

But he wanted it to be faster.

He seeks the answer within himself, but he does not reject external things either.

Just now, he was preparing to take the Dragon Medicine.

Qin Ming sighed inwardly, "Unfortunately, what I obtained was just scraps. It was the minced meat left after the Dragon Silkworm exploded, and the Two Figurines had already plundered it first."

Even so, this Dragon Medicine is enough to help him break through the barrier.

That day, Qin Ming left the Bodhisattva's Dojo alone and entered the depths of the Savage Mountain Range. He immediately took Great Medicine and prepared to ascend to the first floor.

Soon after, from the depths of the dense, pristine forest, a vibrant Vital Energy surged forth. Qin Ming's body was burning hot as he fused with the Sky Supporting Force, undergoing a transformation from his physical body to his spirit.
