An Unprecedented Harvest
Luo Shaohua's hair was disheveled, and her fair and translucent skin, like mutton fat jade, was pierced by dense golden threads, stained with blood.
Qin Ming failed again, unable to stuff her into the Torn Cloth.
"What kind of look is that? Are you trying to flirt with me?" Qin Ming asked, looking at the prisoner in front of him.
Luo Shaohua was disheveled and quite embarrassed, but her eyes grew brighter and brighter, as if two tangible beams of light were shining out from them.
Qin Ming looked down at her and said, "What do you mean? You lost to me, so you're trying to seduce me with your seductive eyes?"
He slashed repeatedly, splitting Luo Shaohua open again, blood splattering everywhere.
However, strangely enough, her body rippled with mysterious waves, but returned to normal in an instant.
Although Luo Shaohua had become a prisoner, she did not panic. Instead, she became ethereal, like Heavenly Immortal who had been isolated from the world coming back to life.
"You really think you can shock me with your eyes?" Qin Ming retorted.
Luo Shaohua's eyes were deep and unfathomable. Even though she had a strong aura, she was still in a special state and her heart was filled with turmoil. Who was this person? How could he be so self-important? She gritted her teeth, wishing she could behead him with One Sword stroke.
"An old tree sprouting new buds, wanting to truly revive? Where are the buds? I'll break them off for you." Qin Ming examined her entire body, intending to sever her Essence, Qi, and Spirit and spirit.
Could there be a "gate" inside her body? Qin Ming explored further.
"What do you want to do?" Finally, Luo Shaohua showed some emotional fluctuation.
Qin Ming became serious and said, "Come on, why can't you unleash your Blood Diamond Ring Method? Isn't it supposed to be one of the strongest offensive techniques, Forbidden Domain secret?"
At this moment, Qin Qianqiu revived, displaying his undisguised domineering style. He slapped his opponent across the face, acting recklessly and lawlessly.
He was highly focused, constantly resonating with his opponent's emotions.
"I stand right here, undefended. No matter Diamond indestructible you are, or how you can Transforming the Hu into Buddha, what can you do to me?" He brought his face close to Luo Shaohua's, grasped her slender hand, and pressed it against his forehead.
Qin Ming raised his eyebrows, arrogant and domineering, and said, "Hurry up Exerted Effort! What about your supreme techniques and Forbidden Technique? Show them to us!"
In Luo Shaohua's eyes, this was naturally a max-level villain.
Qin Ming further provoked, saying, "Before the battle, you were very arrogant, standing tall on the clouds. You couldn't even stand your opponent looking at you at eye level, and had to slap them. How come you're now nailed to the void by golden threads and have become a prisoner?"
Where has your confidence and your methods gone? If you had even a fraction of what you've got, and were just as stubborn as you are, things wouldn't have come to this."
He yearned for the Diamond Ring Technique to the extreme, even if it meant appearing grotesque at this moment.
Luo Shaohua's Divine Statue two condensed immortal Immortal Sword, as if she wanted to pierce through her opponent's body.
Her emotions fluctuated, becoming unusually volatile.
She really wanted to kill him, and the Diamond Ring materialized in her mind, but alas, she couldn't unleash it.
His entire body was bound by forbidden magic, pierced by hundreds of golden threads, even his Mental Field was not spared.
Qin Ming sensed something, Light of the Mind surged. He grasped a part of the profound meaning of the Diamond Ring Technique, and his gaze remained fixed on her, unable to look away.
Unfortunately, this is only the general framework of the True Scripture; the real essence is shrouded in mist and cannot be explored.
"Whether you are from ancient times or from this world, you are no match for me." Qin Ming voluntarily loosened some of the golden threads binding him.
His opponent was naturally very strong, having once caused him to bleed from the corner of his mouth. His current boastful words were merely a ploy to stir up the woman's emotions.
Qin Ming poked Luo Shaohua's fair forehead with his finger and said, "Is that all the tricks you have? The Blood Xuandu Organization is nothing special. As a fellow temporary owner of Torn Cloth, you are like a firefly compared to me in the face of the Scorching Sun."
Luo Shaohua possessed exceptional beauty; even when suppressed, her skin remained radiant and translucent, emanating a glow, and the bloodstains were reabsorbed by her body.
She did everything in her power and delivered a blow.
A Blood-Colored Diamond Ring suddenly materialized and slammed towards Qin Ming's brow, seemingly carrying the power to tear through space, dimming the night and distorting the moonlight.
Bite!
Qin Ming pinched it between two fingers, then closed his eyes and carefully sensed it.
He gained some insights, but the core essence remained shrouded in mystery and could not be explored. This supreme Secret Method seemed difficult to resonate with.
He pondered to himself, "The Tushita Palace, Blood Xuandu, and others are all supreme organizations; they probably know the methods used in the Jade Capital Territory. Is this some kind of precaution?"
Qin Ming tried many times, but only managed to construct a crude Diamond Ring.
"What a pity!" he sighed. This carving merely possessed the form, unable to contain all things, let alone have the forbidden power of Transforming the Hu into Buddha.
Even this so-called form is just a rudimentary version, more like a roughly Kunsteel Ring, lacking the corresponding fine Dao Patterns and aesthetic appeal.
Ultimately, Qin Ming concluded that it would be difficult to obtain the supreme magic from this prisoner alone.
He pierced Luo Shaohua's head with a golden needle to probe her consciousness, but this only accelerated her unusual "resurrection," making her increasingly unlike herself.
Qin Ming said, "I wanted to give you a chance, but you're useless. Let's have one last talk."
Unsurprisingly, he was disappointed again; even tearing apart his opponent's sea of consciousness, he could not uncover the supreme method.
Luo Shaohua was momentarily stunned, and her damaged head instantly recovered. Her aura became increasingly dangerous, and her eyes reflected a terrifying scene of the stars turning in the sky.
"Why haven't I found the Exotic Gold Cloth?" Qin Ming asked.
He tried to communicate with Old Cloth to inquire about the situation.
However, the place was completely quiet.
"What does this mean?" Qin Ming frowned.
Last time, he defeated the temporary owner of the Torn Cloth in Jade Capital and immediately gained something: two pieces of Exotic Gold Cloth merged together and fell into his hands.
"What's the situation right now? Could it be that this battle isn't over yet?" Qin Ming's expression turned serious.
He looked down, then targeted the opponent in the same way.
"You once walked barefoot on the clouds, gesturing for me to bow my head with your toes; feel it for yourself now."
Upon hearing this, Luo Shaohua's pupils contracted, her aloof demeanor vanished, and her emotions surged violently. She saw a foot approaching, and the shoe and sock had burst open.
She immediately lay down on the ground, not far from the foot.
Holding the Memory Crystal, Qin Ming said calmly, "You don't want the image of you crawling at my feet to be exposed, do you? I'll ask you questions, and you'll answer them. Tell me some valuable information."
He paused slightly, then said, "First, reveal the Diamond Ring Technique."
Luo Shaohua finally responded, "You've wasted your time."
"If that's the case, I won't waste any more words." Qin Ming said decisively, putting away the Memory Crystal.
With a clang, he drew his Exotic Metal Blade.
He channeled his Chaos Force, causing the blade to radiate a dazzling light, as if the Great Sun were rising from the night mist.
With a soft thud, Qin Ming slashed with his blade, and Luo Shaohua's head flew off, spraying a large amount of blood.
The other party is acting strangely, seemingly an ancient being reviving, and the recovery speed is extremely fast.
But what does it matter? Just make a few more cuts!
Qin Ming resonated with the Exotic Metal Blade, becoming indestructible. In a flash, he unleashed a second strike, followed by a third—
Luo Shaohua's head was split in two, and her body was also dissected.
Throughout this process, the hundreds of golden threads remained attached to her and did not disappear.
A terrifying scene unfolded: Luo Shaohua, who had been cleaved into pieces, automatically reformed and showed no signs of dying.
Qin Ming swung his sword repeatedly, and in the darkness, the body of this stunning fairy instantly disintegrated. Her lotus-like arms hung from the treetops, and her snow-white feet landed high on the southern mountain peak.
It must be said that the Exotic Metal Blade is incomparably sharp.
Qin Ming exerted all his strength, surpassing Luo Shaohua's recovery speed.
The bright moon hung high, its pure light falling like water as Qin the Madman relentlessly swung his blade, blood splattering across the mountains and forests.
However, the body, which had been scattered in pieces, was suddenly pulled back by an inexplicable force, and even though it had been cut into many pieces, it was reassembled in an instant.
"An immortal body, the secret of the Longevity Test Subjects?" Qin Ming's pupils contracted. He had used all his strength, yet he still couldn't kill this woman instantly. There was definitely a big problem.
He quickly called out, "Old Cloth, something's very wrong. She's clearly beyond the level; she can't just be a Master. This isn't fair."
Old Cloth trembled, floated into the air, and shone brightly.
Nearby, there was another piece of Exotic Gold Cloth; the two seemed to be attempting to connect, or perhaps confronting each other, which was quite unusual.
A faint mist of blood seeped through the smaller piece of Torn Cloth, emitting an eerie glow.
Qin Ming felt a chill run down his spine; the situation here was far beyond his expectations and seemed even more dangerous than he had imagined.
Blood mist rose from the Exotic Gold Cloth, and a hand emerged from it.
This sight sent chills down Qin Ming's spine. No wonder the Torn Cloth hadn't moved; there was something wrong with it too.
Behind the smaller Torn Cloth, a slit was torn in the void.
This is an unprecedented change; it seems a mysterious Mist Gate is about to open there.
"To pry into my secrets?" Old Cloth uttered a faint ripple.
Its Exotic Metal radiance became even more intense, making the moon in the night sky seem as insignificant as a firefly.
With a loud bang, the Mist Gate that was about to open vanished.
Furthermore, the Old Cloth trembled violently, completely merging with the second piece of Exotic Gold Cloth, and a terrifying fog burst forth between them, shattering the void.
The hand shrouded in blood mist emerged from the second piece of the Exotic Gold Cloth, and now it Exerted Effort to prevent the two pieces of cloth from merging.
However, this is beyond its control.
With a loud bang, as if two pieces of the sky had joined together, the entire night sky collapsed, and the vast, desolate mountains and the distant villages where roosters crowed and dogs barked were shattered.
Even Qin Ming felt that his body was riddled with cracks.
However, he recovered quickly.
At the same time, the collapsed forest and distant villages reappeared.
Outside, people witnessed a terrifying scene: the enormous moon in the sky went out, but in the blink of an eye, it reignited and hung high in the sky once more.
Within the mysterious space, the blood-mist-covered hand broke free from the Torn Cloth cloth and materialized into a blurry body, standing amidst the thick fog.
It was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman, except for its right hand, which was the same hand that Exerted Effort earlier.
The Torn Cloth merged successfully and swept forward with a sudden burst of speed.
With a soft "poof," the hand disintegrated, and the figure turned into a blood mist. There, Dao Patterns intertwined and rules shone, before finally extinguishing as quickly as a candle flame flickering in the cold wind.
Qin Ming was mesmerized. No wonder Old Cloth hadn't responded before; it turned out there was a problem there too, which it had now cleared up.
That hand—it was terrifying.
Qin Ming was certain that if he were to face that hand alone, he would be crushed without a doubt. That hand was of an extremely high level, with Dao Patterns and order intertwined.
At this moment, Luo Shaohua's shattered body broke free from the golden threads, all her flesh and blood fused together, her form and spirit were complete, and her energy fluctuations were awe-inspiring.
"She broke the rules." Qin Ming was certain that this woman was problematic.
The Exotic Gold Cloth trembled, and a beam of light swept out, severing part of Luo Shaohua's vital energy.
"You still won't admit defeat?" Qin Ming asked.
"The second personality has taken over the original body." Luo Shaohua spoke, her icy demeanor and Heavenly Immortal aura intensifying.
She closed her eyes briefly, then suddenly opened them, as if she were a completely different person.
Qin Ming stared at her and said, "Is this acceptable? Why don't you bow your head?"
Luo Shaohua said, "This—is still me, stronger than before."
She emphasized that there were no violations.
However, she never looked at Qin Ming, but stared at the Exotic Gold Cloth, as if she was explaining something to it.
Old Cloth didn't respond; there was complete silence.
"Can I kill her?" Qin Ming asked Old Cloth.
He had already been through a bloody battle and didn't want to engage in any more meaningless duels.
The Exotic Gold Cloth hung in mid-air, like a still, fallen leaf, offering no response.
The even more aloof and beautiful Luo Shaohua walked barefoot through the forest, approaching Qin Ming. Feeling humiliated today, she used her second personality to try and get back at him.
Qin Ming said in a deep voice, "If that's the case, then I don't need to hide anything anymore. You have a second personality, and I have a second incarnation."
He suspected that this woman was a "Ancient-Present Fusion Body."
He pointed with his hand, and a mysterious space opened up near Old Cloth.
The Little Worm fell out, its eyes gleaming like an eagle's and a wolf's, exuding Evil Qi aura. Without uttering a word, it charged towards Luo Shaohua.
With a bang, the Little Worm threw a punch, and the night fog dissipated.
Luo Shaohua was so shocked that her slender hands glowed, and ripples of energy expanded violently. Her pupils contracted; how could her opponent possess such a powerful avatar?
"Unfortunately, my One Qi Transforms into Three Purities Ones technique was used up prematurely." She felt regretful that she could not display that unparalleled Great God.
Previously, the mysterious figure shrouded in blood mist, hidden within the Exotic Gold Cloth, relied on three streams of pure energy for its foothold.
That was the doppelganger of a great figure lying in wait, using the technique of "One Qi Transforms into Three Purities" to conceal his true nature.
With a clang, a Exotic Metal sound emanated from Luo Shaohua's body. Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, as if she were enduring pain.
Then, a cloud of blood mist shot out from his body, containing a Diamond Ring.
Unlike the Tushita Palace, it is not perfectly round; it has some angular features and is entirely crimson, interwoven with unique patterns, including blurred mountains and rivers, as well as flowers, birds, fish, and insects.
Qin Ming's eyes lit up immediately, almost glued to the Kunsteel Ring.
"If that's how you feel, I won't stand on ceremony and will definitely accept it." Qin Ming was somewhat excited, hoping that this old object would bring him a pleasant surprise.
He decided he had to succeed.
Earlier, he hadn't even noticed that his opponent possessed this item.
This crimson Kunsteel Ring lies dormant within Luo Shaohua's treasure trove of flesh and blood, sealed away and nurtured in a special way using the Essence Blood of his entire body.
This treasure is still undergoing blood refinement and should not be released into the world.
The situation was not right, so she had to remove it prematurely.
"Second Incarnation, come forth." Qin Ming flicked his finger.
Old Cloth's internal space opened, and the Two Figurines fell out.
He suddenly opened his eyes, his black hair flowing freely, looking extremely heroic and righteous, like a hero.
Qin Ming had already fought Luo Shaohua and didn't want to fight personally, so he summoned his top-tier "avatar" for the outcome.
With a clang, the Blood-Colored Diamond Ring, radiating an immortal glow, blasted the Little Worm back.
"Little Worm, catch!" Qin Ming tossed the Exotic Metal Blade to him.
Then, the Evil Qi Little Worm, wielding a knife, slashed back.
The Two Figurines also left the stage without uttering a word.
Luo Shaohua went all out, unleashing a blood-red, angular Kunsteel Ring and striking the Little Worm with her mind, while she herself confronted the Two Figurines.
She naturally hadn't forgotten that Qin Ming was also watching her intently from the side.
A flash of light appeared, and an Eyebrow-Drawing Brush materialized in her hand. With light strokes, she wrote and drew in the air, and instantly mountains and rivers appeared and disappeared, and stars fell like rain, creating a magnificent scene.
She wanted to attack Qin Ming, believing that if she eliminated the main body, the two avatars would become useless.
Her thinking was correct, but she underestimated the Two Figurines.
At this moment, the Dao Patterns on the bodies of the Two Figurines intertwined, and after being resonated with by Qin Ming, they blocked Luo Shaohua, no less powerful than if he had personally intervened.
At the same time, Qin Ming stepped back, appearing as if he were untouched by karma and had transcended the Three Realms.
Then, he opened the Torn Cloth again, trying to release the commander.
Old Cloth didn't stop it, but Qin Ming didn't ask the chairman to intervene either. After all, this was no longer his avatar; it was a living being.
Actually, he had always suspected that the Little Worm and the Two Figurines might not be completely dead.
The president, with waist-length silver hair, stood tall and graceful, her beautiful eyes deep and focused on the battle.
Recently, Qin Ming has been secretly keeping watch for the guild leader, mainly to prevent the old monsters in the core area of the Tushita Palace from noticing.
The three ancient figures associated with him are truly remarkable.
After all, even the main figures involved in the Ten Thousand Dragons Carrying the Tomb still have the images of the Chairman, the Two Figurines, and the Little Worm.
If there are also portraits of the three people in the Tushita Palace, the consequences would be terrible if their physical remains were discovered.
"President, do you know this woman?" Qin Ming asked.
Luo Shaohua has always emphasized that she is a person of this era.
Qin Ming always suspected that she was connected to people from the ancient times.
"I have no recollection of her in my current memory." The president shook his head. Several months had passed, and the Spiritual Qi around her had become increasingly abundant.
Qin Ming felt that if they were to fight again, the guild leader would likely be much more troublesome and difficult to deal with than before.
He asked again, "Does he look like a powerful ancient being who has been resurrected? Is there anything strange about his physical body?"
"Something's not right." The guild leader's eyebrows were arched, and her eyes were clear. She used unfathomable Daoist energy to investigate the people in the arena, but she did not interfere with the battle.
Luo Shaohua was almost numb inside. Her so-called cold temperament and indifferent expression could no longer be maintained, and she began to experience emotional fluctuations.
She discovered that her opponent's avatar was no different from his real self, possessing the same wondrous techniques and the same top-tier physique, which caused her Qi and Blood to surge and blood to trickle from the corner of her mouth.
In particular, that woman off the field seems to be in great danger; if she also enters the arena, how will she compete?
In her view, these three incarnations were even more powerful than the time-limited One Qi Transforms into Three Purities Ones.
"Gathering all things, Diamond shatters all enemies." Luo Shaohua seemed to be chanting a spell, and the hand Law Seals made the Kunsteel Ring even more terrifying.
In the night fog, the crimson halo expanded, its Dao Patterns densely packed, distorting the void.
Even Little Worm couldn't grasp the Exotic Metal Blade, and was taken away by the Blood-Colored Diamond Ring.
It must be said that the Diamond Ring Technique combined with the Blood-Red Jewel object, when the two are intertwined, is truly terrifying.
At the critical moment, the Little Worm growled and Evil Qi surged. In a daze, it seemed as if an emperor wearing Crown Bead Curtain and a robe was walking towards them.
He used all of Qin Ming's Adhesion Force to intercept the Exotic Metal Blade in mid-air, preventing it from flying away.
Golden threads intertwined, enhancing and binding the Exotic Metal Blade. Then, a black vortex appeared, disintegrating the power that could gather all things and taking the knife back.
"Kill!" On the other side, the Two Figurines were incredibly brave, smashing the rain of energy stars with their bare hands and directly confronting the Eyebrow-Drawing Brush that drew the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers.
Despite the pressure, he charged to Luo Shaohua's side.
There were no unexpected changes in this battle. Even though Luo Shaohua's so-called second personality was suitable for fighting, he was still suppressed by Little Worm and Two Figurines in a battle of equal strength.
In particular, Qin Ming couldn't wait any longer and, fearing something might go wrong, his true form personally went to kill them.
His purpose was clear: he had his eye on the blood- Kunsteel Ring.
This time, Qin Ming was extremely violent. A pair of large Black and White hands appeared in the night sky, and when they came together, they looked like two giant millstones turning.
He personally took to the field, naturally holding nothing back.
Qin Ming nearly crushed Luo Shaohua!
He clasped his hands together, as if two large millstones were crushing the woman.
"Great Scrubbing Technique!" He rubbed his hands vigorously with a smile.
With the addition of the Two Figurines warriors and the Little Worm, this battle was practically a foregone conclusion.
In Qin Ming's large hands, Yin-Yang Qi surged, the power of the Five Elements flowed, Wind Calamity and Thunder Calamity accompanied each other, and the nine Ultimate Domain vibrated together.
Luo Shaohua's hair was disheveled, and her skin was almost rubbed raw.
Add to that the fists of the Two Figurines and the blades of the Little Worm, and she simply couldn't withstand it.
With a bang, she was torn apart, struggling to break free, her blood splattering into the air.
The reason Qin Ming temporarily let go was mainly because when the Blood-Colored Diamond Ring struck, he did his best, revealing his True Form, expanding his Spiritual Field, and using Adhesion Force, Black Hole, and golden threads to bind the bracelet together.
At the same time, the Little Worm pounced on Luo Shaohua, and the fist light of the Two Figurines followed.
With a soft "poof," Luo Shaohua's arm was severed by the Little Worm, and she was also punched by the Two Figurines, causing her to bleed from all seven orifices and fly away again.
Even the power of the Blood-Colored Diamond Ring to transform Transforming the Hu into Buddha was insufficient; this forbidden power faltered as Luo Shaohua's true form suffered severe damage.
Qin Ming seized the opportunity and grabbed Bao Zhuo.
He swallowed it with a black vortex, isolating it from the outside world and temporarily severing the connection between the treasure and its rightful owner.
He burst into laughter, never expecting such a great gain.
At the same time, he resonated with the Little Worm and severed Luo Shaohua's head with a single strike.
"Wait, I should leave alive." Luo Shaohua's Consciousness Spirit Light surged violently as she shouted to Exotic Gold Cloth.
With a hum, the Old Cloth glowed, and a faint white mist emanated from it, blocking the Exotic Metal Blade in the Little Worm's hand and also blocking the fist light of the Two Figurines.
"Why should I?" Qin Ming protested, as this was a prisoner he had captured.
Luo Shaohua's head flew back, reforming his body, and said, "According to the rules set by the Exotic Gold Cloth, every temporary owner is considered Anomalies and should not wither away meaninglessly."
"We were originally strangers, but the Exotic Gold Cloth changed our paths, leading to our meeting and final battle. I wouldn't have died originally, so it needed to let me leave alive." She knew the rules set by the Exotic Gold Cloth.
Qin Ming had some idea about these things, but he hadn't looked into them in detail.
Last time, during the decisive battle in the void outside Jade Capital, the temporary owner of the Exotic Gold Cloth did indeed leave alive.
Qin Ming and his two avatars joined forces to imprison Luo Shaohua.
"Are you going to break your promise?" she asked coldly.
Since Exotic Gold Cloth allowed her to leave alive, she didn't think he would dare to endanger her life.
Then she spoke again, "Return my Diamond Ring."
Qin Ming was dissatisfied; why should he return the spoils of war he had earned through his own abilities?
He held Eyebrow-Drawing Brush and aimed it at the woman in front of him.
Luo Shaohua was startled and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"Painting." Qin Ming sketched on her face, like a child's scribbles, with all sorts of things like Diamond Ring and snow feet—a complete mess.
Finally, Qin Ming blended her dark eyebrows into broom-shaped eyebrows.
"Ahhh----" Although Luo Shaohua couldn't see, she could clearly sense what she had become. After such a crushing defeat, someone had drawn on her face. She just couldn't hold back anymore.
Qin Ming then activated the Subduing Heart Scripture to draw out her Will Horse.
He was about to capture the Xin Yuan when Luo Shaohua blocked his way.
"Curtain call!" Old Cloth called out, no longer standing idly by.
Qin Ming immediately made a request, saying, "Since you don't want to change the life trajectory of the person going to war and spare her life, then please, Old Cloth, eliminate this hidden danger for me."
"My Diamond Ring," Luo Shaohua demanded again.
"What do you mean 'your'? This is my treasure." Qin Ming clenched his fist tightly. This was related to a supreme and profound technique, which he might be able to resonate with. He didn't want to let go, even if it meant death.
If he could take it with him, it would be an unprecedented and enormous gain for him.
At the same time, he slowly descended from the night fog and sat upright on the back of a magnificent Silver Horse.
Old Cloth separated the two, preparing to see them off separately.
Luo Shaohua looked at the person opposite her, her defenses crumbled instantly, and she could no longer maintain her ethereal and otherworldly demeanor.
Qin Ming, beaming, sat astride his Silver Horse, one hand clutching the Blood-Colored Diamond Ring, the other waving at her, and said, "See you again someday."
