The Great Xia Dynasty's Longevity Begins with Connecting to the Swallowed Starry Sky

Dao Xuan exclaimed in surprise, "This magic weapon?"

Master Cangsong was about to speak, and even wanted to say the words "blood refinement".

But he hesitated because of Qin Hao's gaze.

He remembered that Qi Hao had been severely humiliated by Qin Hao with a bamboo stick because of the words "blood refinement".

Today, Qin Hao is even more powerful.

Even the pine trees felt the pressure.

He dared not speak carelessly.

Qin Hao chuckled lightly, "Even a pine tree can assess the situation."

"It's just a mere Nine Heavens Divine Weapon. Didn't the sect leader also accept a set of magical treasures from me for my new treasure-refining method?"

Dao Xuan thought about it and realized it was indeed true.

That set of pearl magic weapons was close to the level of divine weapons from the heavens.

He originally took out the Six Harmonies Mirror only to strengthen the training of his disciples.

Although the Six Harmonies Mirror was useless to him, it was still very handy.

The set of magical artifacts that Qin Hao gave him actually proved somewhat useful.

Dao Xuan was also able to glean some Dao principles from this, which allowed him to gain insights during his cultivation in the Taiqing Realm.

"Indeed, Elder Qin Hao's method of refining treasures is truly divine and unparalleled."

"Not really."

Qin Hao chuckled and said, "Actually, the main thing is the materials of the magic weapon."

Xiao Fan's Soul-Capturing Staff has two main materials.

Firstly, it was brought up by that bald monk from an old incident five years ago.

Secondly, it is the Soul-Capturing Staff, which was nurtured in a secluded pool in the back mountain of Dazhu Peak.

After years of refining it with the thunder water of the Thunder Pool, and with the input of countless materials and countless amounts of thunder water, I finally managed to completely refine the attributes of the Nine Netherworld.

Subsequently, the two merged into one, creating this divine weapon of the highest rank.

In fact, it's already very close to becoming an immortal weapon.

However, to rival an immortal divine weapon, it needs to be refined once more.

Everyone was in an uproar.

However, after Qin Hao's explanation, everyone's gaze towards him became intense again.

Qin Hao remained silent.

Want to refine a treasure?

Then it depends on your efforts.

Zhang Xiaofan obtained the Six Harmonies Mirror and looked in Tian Ling'er's direction, only to see her looking at Qi Hao.

The two were even exchanging glances.

Qin Hao sneered.

I'll deal with these two in a bit.

With Dao Xuan's announcement, the Seven Sects Martial Arts Tournament came to an end.

The big winner of this Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament was actually Dazhu Peak.

Three of the top four are from Dazhu Peak, and one person was not allowed to participate because he was too strong.

And he turned out to be the last disciple to join the sect.

Now, he has risen to the rank of elder.

"If the sect leader has the time, he is welcome to come to Dazhu Peak for a chat."

With those words left behind, Qin Hao ascended the lotus, boarded the back of the water unicorn, and departed first.

Watching his apprentice fill the cup.

Although Tian Buyi was somewhat dissatisfied, he was mostly happy.

This made the other peak leaders look down on him in the past.

How was it this time?
There were nine people in total, but one person was not allowed to participate and directly received a lot of resources.

The remaining eight people all advanced to the top 32.

Then, four people advanced to the round of 16.

Three players advanced to the semifinals.

The first two are both from Dazhufeng.

"When the sect leader has time, he is welcome to visit Dazhu Peak."

After saying that, Tian Buyi said to Song Daren and the others, "What are you all standing there for? Let's go back to Dazhu Peak."

Tian Ling'er was a little scared, but after glancing in Qi Hao's direction, she followed him back.

He doesn't want to come back, but it's not agreed yet, and there's no ceremony planned.

If she dares not to go back, she will have no place in the sect.

When everyone returned to Dazhu Peak, Qin Hao was waiting outside Shoujing Hall.

Tian Buyi came over, exchanged a glance with Qin Hao, and then came in.

Qin Hao didn't wait for the others and had already entered.

Tian Buyi said, "You have now advanced to the Shangqing Realm and are now an elder. You may take a seat."

Normally, the apprentices are not allowed to sit down in such a solemn setting.

At this moment, Tian Buyi felt that Qin Hao was very strong, not much weaker than him.

Here, you are entitled to sit down.

In the cultivation world, strength is ultimately the most important factor.

Qin Hao nodded: "Thank you, Master."

However, since Tian Buyi and Su Ru sat at the head of the table, he sat to the side.

After Song Daren and the others came in, they did not express any doubt about this.

This is all to be expected.

Qin Hao is already an elder, so he naturally has the right to sit.

However, the atmosphere at the scene was already quite serious.

Tian Ling'er stubbornly refused to admit her mistake.

Tian Buyi's face darkened, and he reached out as if to hit someone.

Zhang Xiaofan wanted to plead for mercy.

He always felt that even if his senior sister didn't like him, he would still be willing to follow her.

Unfortunately, even if he reached the top and defeated Qi Hao, it would be too late.

Her senior sister never looked at her.

She looked at Qin Hao more often, though.

To be honest, Tian Ling'er is just a sucker for good looks.

Although Zhang Xiaofan is intelligent and talented, his appearance is not very good.

Of course, those who can cultivate immortality will improve their temperament and appearance as they cultivate.

But even among these handsome men and beautiful women, there are always differences in their qualities.

If it were Qin Hao, Tian Ling'er might have changed her mind.

In fact, if Qin Hao hadn't disliked Tian Ling'er, Tian Ling'er probably wouldn't have liked Qi Hao either.

But by then, what's done is done, and there's no going back.

Tian Buyi said, "You rebellious daughter, kneel down."

Tian Ling'er knelt down, but it was still impossible to change anything.

Seeing this, Su Ru knew that the situation was beyond redemption.

Actually, she really likes Hao'er.

But ever since Qin Hao first came to Dazhu Peak, he has disliked Tian Ling'er.

Perhaps Qin Hao had already seen Tian Ling'er's state back then?
"Are you really determined?" Su Ru asked.

How could you possibly go against your parents?
Su Ru's marriage to Tian Buyi back then wasn't very smooth.

Of course, she may not have liked Tian Buyi at first.

"In this life, I will marry no one but him." Tian Ling'er raised her head and looked at Tian Buyi.

But if you look closely, it seems like she's also looking at Qin Hao?
"I'll beat you to death!" Tian Buyi immediately stood up, about to slap her. But in the end, he couldn't bring himself to do it.

Song Daren and the others held Tian Buyi back tightly, and Su Ru was also there, so they couldn't let him take it down.

No matter what, she's still my daughter.

But Tian Buyi was indeed somewhat disappointed in Tian Ling'er.

Tian Ling'er was well aware of how Qi Hao had treated her and Su Ru back then.

She selectively forgot.

Qin Hao suddenly spoke up: "Master, Mistress, may I say a few words?"

Tian Ling'er was a little nervous: "What did you say? What's it to you?"

Qin Hao chuckled, looking at Tian Ling'er with disdain: "None of my business? Do you think this is just your business?"

"Who I marry is naturally my own business," Tian Ling'er said innocently.

Qin Hao scoffed and said disdainfully, "If you don't use the resources of Dazhu Peak, leave with nothing, and never come back to Dazhu Peak for help or use its name and resources again, then what you said makes sense. Even if you are unfilial, it has nothing to do with us. Do you think Master and Mistress would really kill you?"

"I……"

Tian Ling'er was speechless.

"What do you think the Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament is? Besides the exchange between disciples from different peaks within the sect, it's mostly about the allocation of resources over the past sixty years. Although the heads of each peak are fellow disciples, not all of them are harmonious."

"That Cangsong Zhenren of Dragon Head Peak is clearly suppressing Dazhu Peak and slapping Master in the face every time. Last time Qi Hao came, it was on Cangsong Zhenren's orders to slap Master in the face. You're not blind, you're just stupid, can't you see that?"

"Master, I'm sorry. I've overstepped my bounds."

Regardless of the circumstances, Tian Ling'er is Tian Buyi's daughter.

His attempt to lecture me was indeed overstepping his bounds.

But Tian Buyi shook his head, staring intently at Tian Ling'er: "What do you say?"

Tian Ling'er wasn't unaware of these things; even if she hadn't, Qin Hao had already made it very clear.

She couldn't pretend she didn't know.

But Tian Ling'er still stood tall and held her head high: "I love him."

Just three words say it all.

Tian Buyi almost couldn't hold back and killed Tian Buyi with a single palm strike.

Qin Hao stopped him.

"Master, may I ask one more question?"

No matter how angry Tian Buyi was, how could he possibly actually beat his own daughter to death?
But Dazhu Peak doesn't belong to him alone.

Previously, Qin Hao was not very strong, so it was understandable that Tian Buyi, as his master and head, ruled the place unilaterally.

Qin Hao's strength is now no less than his.

He's still an elder.

In addition, there is also the mount spirit.

Tian Buyi was no match for him either.

Qin Hao's words were clear and correct.

Dazhu Peak does not belong to Tian Buyi alone; it belongs to all the disciples of Dazhu Peak.

Although they all share the same lineage, Tian Buyi cannot ignore the feelings of others.

Qin Hao turned his head, and Tian Ling'er asked somewhat warily, "What do you want to say?"

Qin Hao asked, "You love him, but do you think he loves you?"

"Yes, of course I love you."

"You have the resolve to die for him, but can he do that?"

Qin Hao said jokingly, his expression like that of a cat teasing a mouse.

Tian Ling'er almost snapped and scratched his face.

But she answered without hesitation, "Of course. But what do you want to do?"

"I won't let him die," Tian Ling'er said loudly.

As if wanting to prove herself, she even puffed out her chest.

Qin Hao really wanted to say, "Stop trying. You're already flat-chested, what's the point of trying?"
But in the end, Qin Hao didn't say that. Instead, he said, "I do have a way that satisfies both sides. If you can persuade Qi Hao, then we might agree to this."

"What?" Tian Ling'er asked, then looked at Tian Buyi.

Tian Buyi was furious, and finally said, "Qin Hao's words are my words."

Qin Hao said, “Now, I observe that calamity is about to rise across the land. A catastrophe that will sweep across the entire cultivation world is about to begin. Dazhu Peak is currently short-handed. Although I have planned to expand Dazhu Peak's manpower soon, it is still not enough. How about you let Qi Hao marry into Dazhu Peak? I can accept him as a disciple of Dazhu Peak. All kinds of spells and resources can be given to him according to the true teachings, and I can even personally teach him. Custom-made magic treasures can also be given to him. Do you think you can persuade him?”

Tian Ling'er was startled.

Bringing in a wife?

Would a man do that?

"Of course, it's only a nominal marriage. Your relationship with him will proceed as it is, but one thing is certain: he must become a disciple of Dazhu Peak. From now on, whether dealing with Longshou Peak or anyone else, he must prioritize the interests of Dazhu Peak."

Tian Ling'er hesitated for a moment, then Qin Hao sent her away: "Go ask Qi Hao. Ultimately, it's his decision."

Tian Ling'er hesitated for a moment, then stood up: "What if he agrees?"

"Then I will naturally keep my word. He will receive the same treatment as the senior brother. This time, I have secured ten times more resources for Dazhu Peak than before. How many disciples does Dazhu Peak actually have?"

Qin Hao chuckled: "Even if I plan to increase the number of disciples, the resources used by the lower-level disciples will not affect the resources of the true disciples. Moreover, I have resources that even the elders covet, and I can give him a share. It just depends on whether he can seize the opportunity."

"Father, Mother, what do you think?" Tian Ling'er seemed confident.

Tian Buyi was furious, but in the end he still agreed: "Just as your seventh senior brother said."

"it is good!"

Tian Ling'er agreed and turned to leave.

Su Ru couldn't help but sigh, "My daughter always sides with outsiders."

A daughter is no longer under her mother's control once she grows up.

After she left, Tian Buyi revealed a look of surprise: "Hao'er, you said, a great calamity is about to begin?"

Su Ru was also surprised: "And it's going to sweep across the entire land?"

"good."

Qin Hao nodded: "In other words, the Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament is actually the source of this great calamity."

Next, the sect leader isn't going to send the top four from this competition—oh no, Dazhu Peak has three of them. I think the sect leader will definitely send the top eight together.

Xiao Fan and his companions are about to face a great calamity.

This great calamity is unavoidable for all three righteous factions.

As for me, it's about time I went to Tianyin Temple to ask if those bald monks had the physique.

This?
Tian Buyi hesitated for a moment: "A great calamity is about to begin, isn't it?"

"Impossible." Qin Hao shook his head decisively and refused: "I know that you, the sect leader and master, have said many times that stability is the most important thing."

Over the years, the Qingyun Sect has most likely benefited greatly from the Tianyin Temple.

But I still want to hold Tianyin Temple accountable.

Nearly three hundred people from Caomiao Village have lost their lives; those bald monks have owed a blood debt for far too long.

Qin Hao's words stunned everyone except Tian Buyi.

Su Ru said the same thing: "Hao'er, do you mean that the tragedy in Caomiao Village was caused by Tianyin Temple? No, no, no, are you mistaken?"

Although Tianyin Temple competes with Qingyun Sect, the masters there are still of good character.

Qin Hao scoffed and said sarcastically, "Back then, I saw it with my own eyes, unless something unexpected happened in between."

Puzhi also personally threw down his prayer beads, leaving me with a method of practicing the Great Brahma Prajna.

Of course, he was also testing the senior in the shadows.

In reality, that was merely a precaution against my still-sleeping immortal soul.

"What?" This time, Huan Tian was surprised.

What did Qin Hao just say?
Qin Hao also revealed something: "Master, there's no need to be surprised."

The only reason I survived was because the murderous intent stimulated my dormant immortal soul.

I am the master of Pengze Lake in the Qianyang Immortal Realm. Of course, I did not undergo a tribulation to become a cultivator.

It's merely a projection across countless worlds, a split soul cultivating simultaneously. But the immortal soul within me is genuine.

That day, I simply didn't want to waste the opportunity of the projection because Puzhi had woken up.

Moreover, when my immortal soul awoke, Puzhi had already killed everyone in Caomiao Village except for me, Xiaofan, and the other three.

Otherwise, Puzhi would not have been able to escape that day. (End of Chapter)
