Qin Dynasty: Starting with a free Fire Kirin Sword

"Could it be that Zi Nu has been waiting here all along?"

The thought flashed through his mind.

Seeing Lin Qi's puzzled expression, Zi Nu's face also flushed slightly.

He quickly explained, "I didn't do it, I was just guessing."

"With your abilities, and Honglian's cultivation still at the acquired stage, how could she possibly be your match?" With that,

Her expression froze instantly, realizing she might have said something she shouldn't have.

Then, her gaze quickly shifted elsewhere.

It was as if nothing had happened and nothing had been said.

Chapter 68

however,

Her face and neck were flushed red, revealing the turmoil in her heart.

"You say I'm very strong?" Lin Qi was slightly taken aback by this.

My gaze followed Zi Nu's figure, but I only saw her turn to the side.

quickly,

Zi Nu composed herself, turned her gaze back, and solemnly said, "Lin Qi, regarding Madam Mingzhu's matter, I've instructed Nongyu and the others to begin making adjustments."

"But she was one of the Four Generals of Nightfall, and she has a strong will. It may take her some time to adjust."

"Please give me half a month, and I will definitely show you a completely new Lady Mingzhu." With that, she cast a deep glance at Lin Qi.

He continued, "In the meantime, just be patient for a while."

"Once everything is ready, you can explore to your heart's content." With that, a faint blush returned to Zi Nu's cheeks.

As night fell, I sat alone with Lynch to discuss these matters.

This gradually created an unusual and ambiguous atmosphere in the surroundings.

"Cough cough..."

To dispel this subtle feeling, Zi Nu coughed lightly twice.

Afterwards, she regained her composure and asked, "Lin Qi, I've heard rumors that you... you... you... with Young Master Han Fei?"

As she spoke, she looked directly at Lin Qi, eager for his answer.

Hearing this, Lin Qi shook his head.

He replied, "It wasn't me."

"This is just a rumor that someone deliberately spread to harm me."

They probably hope Wei Zhuang will step in and resolve this 'trouble' of mine.

Mentioning Wei Zhuang's name,

Zi Nu's gaze instantly turned serious and cautious.

Wei Zhuang is a man of exceptional martial prowess, extremely formidable, and most importantly, he has a very close personal relationship with Han Fei.

If they hear any rumors, they will surely come to confront Lin Qi, which will inevitably lead to conflict.

One careless move could lead to a serious mistake.

In the Qin world, although the Baiyue War or the plot of "Nine Songs of the Sky" did not occur in Han, Wei Zhuang and Han Fei became close friends for other reasons.

Zi Nu reminded Lin Qi with a worried expression: "Lin Qi, Wei Zhuang is a master of the fourth level of the Celestial Realm, and he is extremely powerful."

Although he's not currently in Xinzheng, if he hears you're here, he'll definitely show up and take you to court.

"He is arrogant and haughty, and might attack you at the slightest provocation, so be very careful!" As soon as she finished speaking, Zi Nu's gaze fell on Lin Qi, her expression filled with concern.

Lin Qi chuckled softly, his tone calm and unhurried: "Don't worry. Thousands of soldiers besieged me, all sorts of offensives, the top assassins at night, the King of Birds, the Four Fierce Generals, and even Ji Wuye—I defeated them all one by one." "As for Wei Zhuang, I don't even consider him a threat."

If a war were to actually break out, the world would actually have one less formidable enemy.

After saying that, Lin Qi appeared very confident.

Indeed, Wei Zhuang is incredibly powerful. As a cultivator at the initial fourth level of the Celestial Realm, he has few rivals in the world.

Lin Qi's own strength should not be underestimated.

His cultivation had reached the peak of the first level of the Celestial Realm. After a fierce and unrestrained battle, he made another step forward and rose to the peak of the first level of the Celestial Realm, just one step away from the second level.

In terms of speed, it can achieve a 'light and shadow flash' that can take on five opponents at once, leaving all opponents at the fifth level of the Celestial Realm and below far behind.

Even someone at the fourth level of the Celestial Realm who is skilled in movement techniques cannot match his speed.

In terms of strength, it has reached the third level of 'Indestructible Golden Body'.

The Indestructible Golden Body is an unparalleled divine skill in the world of "Storm Riders," and it has been enhanced by the system to ensure that it has no weaknesses.

Even when facing attacks from a fourth-level Celestial Realm expert, Lin Qi only suffered minor injuries.

In terms of true qi cultivation, the Mingyu Manual has reached its ultimate ninth level.

The body's vital energy is continuously generated.

Unless the enemy can kill him in the first round, the one who fights him will inevitably be the loser.

In addition, Lin Qi is also proficient in the Holy Spirit Sword Technique, which is another advantage.

Based on these conditions, Lin Qi had no fear in facing Wei Zhuang.

Moreover, it is now a new morning.

This means that the daily login rewards can be claimed again, and the beginner-level 'Enlightenment Stone Tablet' has also been refreshed.

With these two trump cards in hand,

Lin Qi countered with a question that revealed a domineering tone, yet his manner remained calm.

At this moment, Lin Qi exuded a surging aura and was full of confidence.

Looking at the man before her, Zi Nu felt a surge of trust and nodded gently, "I believe what you say." Lin Qi smiled at her.

What do you trust?

"I trust that you are fearless in the face of Wei Zhuang, and I believe that you have never harmed Mr. Han Fei," Zi Nu replied softly, her eyes sparkling.

Lin Qi nodded again upon hearing this.

He then turned to Zi Nu and asked, "Zi Nu?"

"Just call me Zi Nu!" Before Lin Qi could finish speaking, Zi Nu interrupted him with a light sip of her red lips.

She stared intently at Lin Qi, once again displaying the demeanor of a stunningly beautiful and extraordinary mistress of Zilan Pavilion.

Lin Qi's eyes lit up, and he nodded slightly.

His magnetic voice slowly rang out: "Zi Nu."

"Just now, when Honglian seemed unable to withstand the blow and fell into a deep sleep, she muttered something that seemed to be somewhat related to you?"

"What does this have to do with me?" Zi Nu frowned. "What did Sister Hong Lian say?" Lin Qi shook his head and said, "I don't know the specifics."

"I only vaguely heard a few words, such as: 'Sister Zi Nu,' 'refuse,' 'serve,' 'I'm sorry,' etc... These are the words that are hard to understand."

After Lin Qi finished speaking, he looked at Zi Nu with a puzzled expression and asked, "Do you know what this means?"

Upon hearing this, Zi Nu's cheeks suddenly flushed.

She quickly turned her head and replied, "It's just a small matter."

After saying that, she immediately added, "I have something to do, so I'll be going now." She didn't give Lin Qi a chance to reply.

With a slight turn, Zi Nu's graceful figure disappeared as if seeking refuge, leaving only her faint fragrance lingering in the air, which smelled wonderful.

"A trivial matter?" Lin Qi raised an eyebrow at the sight, a look of doubt on his face.

Although he was somewhat puzzled, he quickly shook off his doubts.

"Let's find a quiet place and use the Enlightenment Stone Tablet!" With that thought, Lin Qi's body flickered and disappeared from the Purple Orchid Pavilion.

Soon.

Lin Qi's figure appeared in a forest outside Xinzheng City.

Upon landing, a thought struck him: "Let's check in for today!"

As the command was given, the system notification sounded: "Ding!"

"Daily check-in successful. Received: Undying Golden Body Level +1!"

"Daily check-in successful. Received: Light Body Flash Level +1!"

"Daily check-in successful. Gained: Sacred Heart Technique Level +1!"

Although it was just three ordinary rewards, Lynch was quite satisfied with them.

Nowadays, each skill level upgrade represents a significant breakthrough in one's strength.

Although Sacred Heart Technique is mainly used for mental protection and its effect is relatively average, Undying Golden Body and Light Flash are crucial.

His Undying Golden Body allows him to withstand powerful physical attacks and strengthens his internal power; while his Light Flash makes him as fast as lightning, making him almost impossible for enemies to catch or attack.

"Next, it's time for the Enlightenment Stone Tablet!" Lin Qi waved his hand and pointed, and the Enlightenment Stone Tablet appeared before them.

After seven days of restoration, the Enlightenment Stele was finally ready for use again.

Lin Qi has two options for improvement: one is to raise the level of the Holy Spirit Sword Technique; the other is to enhance his own cultivation level.

After a moment's thought, Lin Qi made a decision: "Improve my cultivation level first!"

In his view, basic cultivation is more crucial than swordsmanship.

If one's cultivation level is not high, even if the Holy Spirit Sword Technique is practiced to an extremely high level, its explosive power will be limited.

With a solid foundation in cultivation, even the simplest Holy Spirit Sword Technique can unleash powerful energy.

Cultivation is the foundation; all enhancements in combat power ultimately depend on cultivation.

Therefore, Lin Qi chose to first consolidate his cultivation.

Then, he sat upright on the ground, closed his eyes, and channeled his inner energy into the suspended enlightenment stele.

Upon touching the Enlightenment Stone Tablet, a feeling of sudden enlightenment immediately welled up in Lin Qi's heart, and at the same time, his cultivation level was rapidly improving.

Originally at the peak of the first level of the Celestial Realm, he instantly broke through to the second level of the Celestial Realm.

This process did not end there. It progressed from the early stage of the second level of the Celestial Realm to the later stage, and finally stabilized at its peak.

In a very short time, his cultivation level jumped a major level, advancing to the peak of the second stage of the Celestial Realm.

Even after reaching the peak of the second level of the Celestial Realm, the effects of this enlightenment remained undiminished.

After a while,

With a soft "click," followed by...

(The above is the adapted content, with some words and descriptions adjusted to ensure that the content is suitable for all audiences.)

At the age of 18, Lin Qi successfully advanced from the peak of the second level of the Celestial Realm to the initial stage of the third level.

After a period of time, his new level of mastery stabilized.

However, at this moment, the power of the Enlightenment Stone Tablet quickly dissipated, losing its effectiveness within a few breaths.

The enlightenment stele, which had been floating in the air, suddenly descended.

At the same moment, Lin Qi, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light. The powerful aura of the early stage of the third level of the Celestial Realm surged like a tide. "Whoosh whoosh whoosh," the trees within a radius of several hundred meters trembled and creaked.

Lin Qi swayed slightly and then stood up.

He gently stretched out his right arm and caught the Enlightenment Stone Tablet that was about to fall to the ground, holding it steadily in his hand.
