Qin Wangchuan, I Challenge You!

The Spatial Rift quietly closed behind them, completely isolating the roar of the Treasury Ruins.

Qin Wangchuan's figure appeared high in the sky, with a rolling Cloud Sea beneath his feet.

He looked down and saw Chu Wujiu, Ye Lingchuan, Zhao Lingyun, Yun Zexuan and the others still standing in front of the stone gate.

Looking up, I realized that the treasure vault was located directly above the entire Secret Realm, connected by a stone gate.

"Did you take everything inside?" Zhao Lingyun looked up as he landed and asked, half-jokingly.

Qin Wangchuan shook his head. "Only a portion was taken."

"A portion?" Ye Lingchuan frowned slightly, his keen Divine Sense already detecting the unusual atmosphere around him. He instantly became alert, his sharp gaze sweeping across his surroundings as he said in a deep voice, "What's inside? These people... are they all here for you?"

Before the words were even finished, a whooshing sound suddenly rang out!

From all directions, dozens of figures, filled with undisguised Killing Intent and greed, were rapidly approaching the Lone Peak.

These people had clearly been lying in wait for a long time, just waiting for the Secret Treasure to appear so they could swarm in.

Although their level of skill is not high, their quantity is large.

"It seems that it wasn't just that old man who was eyeing the stuff inside; what you took was definitely not ordinary. Finders keepers!" Although Zhao Lingyun was talking about dividing the spoils, his Spiritual Power was already secretly gathering around him.

Yun Zexuan, as the brains of the group, was also very responsible and immediately began assigning tasks. "Don't even think about getting a share yet. Chu Wujiu be in charge of the front, and I'll be in charge of the back..."

"Does he think everyone has the same Immortal Bone as him? He's got the 'first' and 'second' thing!"

"Just these few people."

Chu Wujiu shout interrupted Yun Zexuan.

He took a step forward, his aura exploding outwards, his robes billowing, and he shouted, "Heaven and Earth Law? Slaughter..."

However, just before the Dharma Manifestation was about to manifest—

"Laugh!"

A sound, extremely faint yet seemingly capable of slicing through the soul, swept across the sky.

Everyone looked up and saw two thin, almost transparent golden lines in the sky, which had somehow unfolded and crossed to form a huge "+" shape.

Immediately afterwards, the golden cross suddenly began to spin and expanded outwards at an astonishing speed.

Where the golden thread passed, the space seemed to be sliced by an invisible blade, creating subtle ripples.

Those cultivators who rushed in from all directions, whether they concealed their forms or used defensive Law Treasure, all disintegrated silently like fragile glass the moment they came into contact with the rotating golden lines—there were no shrill screams, only the soft hissing sound of their bodies and Law Treasure being instantly separated.

The whole process was faster than I could have imagined.

Some people had barely leaped into the air when they were instantly reduced to mangled limbs and fell to the ground.

It was as if the sunlight had merely flickered for a moment, and then the world was quiet again.

Chu Wujiu's still-developing illusory Dharma Manifestation form slowly dissipated. He looked up in surprise, gazing at Qin Wangchuan, who was now leisurely sitting in mid-air.

Beneath him, a golden thread that had appeared out of nowhere was shimmering with a restrained yet proud light.

"Well, you've gotten even stronger." Chu Wujiu looked at the golden thread supporting Qin Wangchuan and couldn't help but sigh.

"One, no, two lines... they seem to possess extremely strong 'spell-breaking' properties, rendering conventional defenses useless." Yun Zexuan pondered, lightly stroking his chin, and exchanged a serious glance with Zhao Lingyun beside him.

Next time we face off, we need to take this variable into account.

On the other side, in the shadows behind Ye Lingchuan, the tentacles of the Immortal Burial Coffin spread outwards like living things, greedily absorbing and devouring the scattered flesh and limbs.

With the continuous influx of pure energy, in time, the Pseudo-Immortal Body will be reborn, stronger than before.

A little further away, Xie Qingshang, who had been observing quietly, was once again shocked by his cold eyes.

She doesn't consider herself a frog in a well.

Born into a prestigious family, he witnessed the profound power of sects and experienced life-or-death battles.

Since entering this Secret Realm, Xie Qingshang believed he had overestimated the strength of this group considerably.

Chu Wujiu's domineering and unparalleled Heaven and Earth Dharma Manifestation, Ye Lingchuan's unpredictable coffin, Zhao Lingyun's Talisman Art capable of suppressing cultivators at the Fourteenth Realm, Yun Zexuan may seem the most ordinary, but every time he steps forward, he can resolve any situation...

As dozens of Killing Intent figures rushed in from all directions, and a fierce battle seemed inevitable—

Qin Wangchuan just one look.

There was no grand clash of supernatural Divine Ability, nor dazzling Law Technique light; only two almost invisible golden lines, and an elegant yet deadly rotation.

And then... it all ended.

They easily killed the Demon Beast.

They easily suppressed those who had reached a higher level of cultivation.

Even when surrounded by multiple people, they were instantly killed.

This trip to the originally perilous Secret Realm turned into a leisurely stroll and sightseeing.

Xie Qingshang was now eager to know the identities of these people.

As the dust settled, Qin Wangchuan slowly walked down the golden thread.

He glanced at the crowd below and decided to leave.

"Hey!" Chu Wujiu immediately objected, stepping forward to block their path. "So, we're just here to keep you company, huh? After all that work, you think you can just leave after getting first place? No way, you have to come in with us and search again!"

Zhao Lingyun chimed in, "That's right, there's no reason for you to eat alone!"

Qin Wangchuan paused, looking at the "don't think you can get rid of us so easily" expressions on their faces, and shook his head with a hint of helplessness. "Suit yourself."

The group passed through the stone gate and entered the treasure vault once again.

The core area is now a ruin, but the rest is fine.

Xie Qingshang for a moment, then silently followed behind.

Although Qin Wangchuan had previously "cleaned up" the treasure vault, the number of treasures scattered throughout was still astonishing.

Chu Wujiu and his companions had extremely high standards. They were very selective, choosing only materials and artifacts that were truly useful or special to them, without even glancing at the mountains of rare and precious heavenly materials and earthly treasures and magical Law Treasure.

Xie Qingshang was very sensible and quietly followed at the back of the group, taking away the treasures that the others clearly said they didn't want or didn't care about.

Even so, what she gained far exceeded the harvest of a typical sect's large-scale expedition.

On the way out of the Secret Realm, Xie Qingshang tried several times to find an opportunity to talk to these people and find out their background.

Chu Wujiu and Zhao Lingyun were arguing over the ownership of a peculiar piece of Star Iron, while Yun Zexuan was recording and analyzing the Secret Realm. Ye Lingchuan was focused on controlling the Immortal Coffin to devour the hidden Demon Beast, and Qin Wangchuan was clearly not interested, his mind was no longer on the matter.

In this slightly silent yet subtly tense atmosphere, the group finally arrived at the exit of the Secret Realm.

With a flash of light, everyone found themselves in the familiar world outside. Fresh air filled their lungs, and the sunlight was somewhat dazzling.

"Sister!"

A vibrant, youthful voice immediately rang out.

Xie Qingshang turned his head and saw his younger brother, Xie Qingyu, whose face was still young but whose eyes were full of stubbornness, already waiting at the exit.

Her expression relaxed, and she was just about to respond.

But Xie Qingyu's initially joyful gaze suddenly froze as it swept over her shoulder, locking onto the figure that was about to leave.

The moment he saw who it was, the boy's smile froze, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

But his youthful spirit quickly overcame his hesitation.

He suddenly raised his hand and pointed at Qin Wangchuan, his voice brimming with the fearlessness of a newborn calf, and shouted:

"Qin Wangchuan!"

I challenge you!
