Chapter 17: Crisis Strikes Again, Qin Yi! (Second Update, Seeking Collection)

  As expected, Galen smiled and explained, "Because this is the summoning principle of 'Heroic God's Canon'."

  "Summoning spell?"

  "Uh-huh." Nodding, Galen continued, "After absorbing the Heavy Treasure, the soul of 'Heroic God's Canon' told me that summoning has its own set of rules. Summoning each hero requires consuming energy from 'Heroic God's Canon', and the stronger the hero, the more consumption is required."

  "Especially since the master also needs to repair the meridians, this double consumption is even more unbearable for 'Heroic Spirit Compendium'."

  "This is why the heroes summoned by the master have a time limit, especially female heroes who consume more energy and can't even communicate with each other. Moreover, summoning a female hero comes with a certain price, but the 'Heroic God's Dictionary' says that this cost has already been transferred to you."

  "As for me..." Galen smiled, inserting the Sword of Justice into the ground, "Because I was the first one summoned by Master, I am not bound by this rule."

  With a thoughtful nod, Qin Xuan didn't notice the sentence 'the cost will be transferred to you' behind Galen.

  "No wonder, it seems like I'll have to continue delivering heavy treasures to that guy in order to get stronger for myself!"

  Thinking of this, Qin Xuan felt a sense of helplessness in his heart. He didn't have any good feelings towards the soul of 'Heroic Divine Canon'. And the heavy treasure, it was something that could cause many strong practitioners to go crazy and fight for, yet it was only used to fill up the energy of 'Heroic Divine Canon'.

  Of course, this does not rule out the private desires of the mysterious soul in "Hero's Spirit".

  "Master, what should we do with this guy?" Galen pointed at Qin Fei Yuan who was lying on the ground.

  Furrowing his brow slightly, Qin Xuan really wanted to say that one sword would kill him, but thinking of his nominal sister-in-law, Qin Wei, this girl was from the South Mansion, and seemed to be Qin Fei's younger sister.

  "Never mind, let's go."

  After that, he took away the space ring on Qin Feiyuan's finger and was about to leave. Because he suddenly learned of the energy problem of 'Heroic God Canon', he didn't have time to waste anymore, and his mind was all focused on how to solve the heavy treasure matter.

  Just then, Qin Xuan's face suddenly changed, a thick and heavy aura suddenly descended, as if a mountain was pressing down, the air around him condensed, and a sharp sword edge came flying towards him...

  Hiss.

  The sword tip was incredibly fast, and as it met the wind, it swelled up, reducing some of the tall trees around it to dust, withering and crumbling everything in its path, unstoppable.

  When it reached the top of his head, the sword's blade was already over ten meters long.

  Galen wanted to save him, but it was too late!

  "Courage!"

  With a loud roar, looking at the sword tip close at hand, Qin Xuan even felt a hint of death's taste, the Xuan Qi in his body was released without reservation, majestic and powerful, like thunder.

  On his body, a circle of golden energy wrapped him tightly, like a golden eggshell, airtight, and the spiritual instrument great sword in his hand simultaneously pointed to the sword tip to resist.

  Hmph.

  The giant sword was shaken out at the first moment and inserted into a thick tree far away, emitting a slight humming sound.

  Hehehe.

  The sword's momentum did not diminish, heavily falling onto the golden energy. Without a shocking explosion, it was as if water and fire were incompatible, with both constantly canceling each other out. The terrifying energy caused the ground beneath the young man to crack instantly, spreading like a spider web in all directions.

  Huh?

  Finally, Galen rushed up, and with a stroke of the sword of justice in his hand, the blade that had gradually become illusory suddenly shifted its original trajectory and arrived at Qin Fei's head.

  Boom.

  The terrifying sword edge directly blasted a deep pit on the ground, and the heat wave rolled out. Qin Fei, who was in a coma, was even more unlucky to be blown away without leaving any residue.

  "Hoo hoo hoo."

  Sitting on the ground, Qin Xuan was panting heavily, his face pale and bloodless, with cold sweat all over his head, and his clothes were soaked. The golden energy on his body suddenly shattered like glass.

  If Galen had hesitated for another step, he would have probably died on the spot.

  Too scary! Too shocking!

  This sword has long surpassed the category of refining the body nine times and reached the realm of the Sea of Qi!

  "Because 'Heroic God's Canon' absorbed the heavy treasure, I have already broken through to the strength of Lian Ti Eighth Heavy, but...” Qin Xuan's chest was violently heaving, his mind constantly turning over, "Why do I feel that the Xuan Qi in my body is not enough? Even a weak situation has appeared."

  Although the terrifying sword edge just now reached the boundary of the air sea, relying on Qin Xuan's strength, it was not enough to withstand such a hard fight. Others may not know, but he knew clearly that his body's mysterious energy was thick and strong enough to compare with the general nine-fold perfection of the refining body.

  So, Qin Xuan was puzzled, and then he seemed to have thought of something, his heart skipped a beat as he recalled the 'price' Gailen had mentioned.

  Could it be that this so-called 'price' is to exhaust one's own vital energy?

  If it's really like that, then everything makes sense.

  Clap clap clap.

  A burst of applause echoed from afar, followed by several sonic booms.

  Hiss, hiss, hiss.

  As he looked closely, Qin Xuan was the first to arrive, and there were only three people coming. However, the auras of these three men were incredibly powerful, with two of them being no weaker than Qin Fei's earlier aura. Especially the white-clothed man in the middle, who made one's heart palpitate. With every move he made, his profound aura surged forth like a thousand galloping horses or a mighty tidal wave, his presence awe-inspiring.

  "Didn't expect this guy to show up too." Looking at the man in white, Qin Xuan's mouth curled into a wry smile.

  Beifu Gongzi, the first among the younger generation of the four manors of the Qin family in name, was Qin Yi. He was seen holding a green long sword in his hand, and the sword body had a faint sound of wind and thunder, obviously, the terrifying sword edge just now was created by him.

  He glanced at the bodies scattered all over the ground, and his mouth curled up slightly as he looked at the young man who had stood up again with Galen's support due to exhaustion. There was a hint of praise in his eyes, "Not bad, you can withstand my one blow, you have something to be proud of."

  Pride?

  Qin Xuan curled his lip, somewhat disdainful. He didn't interact with Qin Yi much, but he had long heard that this kid was exceptionally arrogant, perhaps due to his natural talent, and in his eyes, no one else existed except for himself.

  Looking at Qin Yi, especially seeing that arrogant and condescending face, Qin Xuan really wanted to beat him down, especially thinking of the sword just now.

  A fatal sword, a sword that almost took his own life!

  "In order to get the treasure, these guys are willing to risk their own lives. What a pity, if they knew that the treasure had already been refined and absorbed by the 'Heroic Divine Canon', I wonder what would happen."

  Heaving a silent sigh, Qin Xuan's gaze gradually turned cold. Unfortunately, even with the support of 'tenacity', the mystical energy within his body wouldn't recover that quickly, let alone re-summon Fiona.

  With his internal Qi empty, Qin Xuan was no different from an ordinary person. Even if his physical body was extremely strong, he wouldn't be foolish enough to engage in a fierce battle with a powerful opponent at the Air Sea Realm.

  Moreover, there were two other Body Refining Ninth Realm experts beside him who were no weaker than Qin Fei.

  "It seems there's time to study 'The Art of Cultivation' after all."

  He shook his head. At first, he was trapped in the sixth layer of Body Refining because of his strength, so Old Ancestor gave him the "Body Cultivation Technique", but he had not yet started to cultivate it.

  "Can only retreat first." He shook his head secretly and Qin Xuan made a decision in an instant.

  Having courage but no strategy is a mediocre person. Clearly knowing one can't win yet still insisting on going forward, this is showing off temporary bravery, in simpler terms, it's being brainless.
