After conquering the Empress, I proved my Dao with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace!

The instant this power appeared.

Outside the Tianyuan Continent, in the starry sky.

A colossal altar that has revolved around the Tianyuan Continent for countless years.

At that moment, the many names engraved on the altar suddenly began to flash.

A faint sense of vicissitude is slowly awakening within.

"If the true spirit has manifested in Tianyuan... then the True Spirit Immortal-Destroying Sword should also be born!"

Whether I am a false immortal or not, this sword will tell!

The weathered voice echoed slowly, carrying a certain persistence of time.

Meanwhile, on the western lands, black bats roared fiercely.

The black light between his brows slowly spread out, enveloping his head.

The black light seemed to weaken considerably and could no longer spread.

Just then, two enormous arms rose from the sea.

It came suddenly and unexpectedly.

Two enormous hands slammed the black bat skeleton into them.

A deafening roar erupted, followed by a powerful shockwave.

The two enormous hands immediately collapsed and exploded.

His entire arm shattered in an instant, turning into droplets of seawater as they fell.

Qin Chuan's head was also shattered as if blood was flowing from all seven orifices.

Similarly, in mid-air.

The skeleton of the black bat, its entire body except for a complete head.

Every other location was completely shattered.

Torn apart!

Only the head emitted a black light, like a shooting star, carrying a mournful and resentful tone, and revealing a weak roar.

It sped off into the distance and vanished in an instant.

The moment he disappeared, the waves on the sea subsided, and everything returned to normal.

Qin Chuan withdrew his consciousness from Qinghai and returned to the place where his true self was sitting cross-legged.

His body jolted violently, his face turned pale, and he withdrew from the seventh life.

After maintaining the state of first life, open your eyes.

"It's a pity we didn't completely annihilate this demon. If my true form were there..."

However, it has been severely damaged and will take a long time to recover.

Next time we encounter him, we must kill him!

Qin Chuan's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he slowly raised his head.

"The power he displayed at the last moment was somewhat eerie..."

Qin Chuan seemed to be deep in thought, and slowly lowered his head.

In that instant, he clearly sensed the two rusty swords within the space of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace.

One of them evoked a strong tremor and a deep longing.

"Perhaps the secret of these two rusty swords can be found in this black bat."

Qin Chuan pondered for a moment, then leaped up.

Just as he was about to break through the sea, his eyes suddenly narrowed and his body sank again in an instant.

Without hesitation, his consciousness merged with Qinghai, making him appear as if he were hidden.

Meanwhile, on the Qinghai Lake in the Western Regions, a divine consciousness descended from the heavens.

With a sense of vicissitude, it swept across the entire Western Regions, as if searching for something.

Fortunately, Qinghai blocked the way, and Qin Chuan merged with Qinghai, hiding his body inside.

That's why this powerful divine sense didn't detect anything after scanning over it.

They headed straight for the place where the black bat had fled and gave chase.

The power of this divine sense reminded Qin Chuan of the eight immortals he had seen outside the Immortal Bridge Realm back then!

"What is he looking for?"

Qin Chuan's eyes flickered, but he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he waited a few more days.

In the past few days, that divine sense appeared three more times, searching back and forth.

It wasn't until several days had passed that it truly disappeared.

After waiting a few more days, Qin Chuan finally rushed out of the sea after confirming that the other party had completely left.

Standing on the sea, Qin Chuan frowned slightly.

He vaguely guessed that perhaps the divine consciousness descending from the heavens was searching for that rusty sword!

After a moment of contemplation, Qin Chuan raised his right hand and flicked it.

Immediately, a head appeared in his hand; it was the head of the black bat that had transformed into the black-clad youth.

However, it was not human-shaped, but rather resembled a bat.

His eyes were lifeless, yet they still held the terror and despair of his dying moments.

When people see it, it creates an indescribable sense of impact.

Qin Chuan deliberately preserved this head.

The purpose was to resolve an unnecessary conflict.

Yuwen Qing's death was a deliberate setup by the Black Bat.

Leaving aside whether Ancestor Yuwen could see through the clues, even if he couldn't...

The head in Qin Chuan's hands at this moment is enough to explain the problem.

With a swift turn, Qin Chuan headed towards the place where his consciousness had merged with Qinghai.

What I saw was the ten markets that had been built over the past year on the vast sea of ​​the Western Regions.

At this moment, the closest place to him is the Sixth Market.

"These ten markets are all guarded by cultivators from the Ink Earth."

And the fact that they are qualified to establish such a market here even in the face of catastrophe must mean they have the support of the Western Sea Alliance.

"Send this head there, and someone will naturally deliver it to Ancestor Yuwen."

Qin Chuan swayed, his speed increasing even further.

Three days later, after crossing Qinghai, I could see the sea not far away.

Floating on the water were numerous boats connected together, forming a market town that stretched for thousands of feet.

There were quite a few wooden buildings on it, and there were about a thousand cultivators.

The place was bustling with people coming and going.

Many people were still talking, and it seemed quite lively.

There were also some cultivators dressed in black robes around, each with a cold expression, pacing back and forth at the edge.

Their clothing features patterns of butterflies flitting among clouds; they are the guards of this sixth market.

Normally, this place is where cultivators trade and replenish their supplies.

According to Mo Tu's plan, in the years to come, these ten markets would serve as the foundation.

Hundreds of markets and towns will be built on this vast sea in the Western Regions.

There is an array here, making it difficult for divine sense to spread in. Unless Qin Chuan activates the Multi-Life Activation, it will be difficult for divine sense to spread.

Qin Chuan arrived at midday.

His arrival immediately attracted the attention of the monks in the market.

The guards' eyes narrowed; Qin Chuan's cultivation level made them immediately wary.

Without any obstruction, Qin Chuan was allowed to enter the market.

As soon as Qin Chuan stepped into the market, he immediately sensed the power of an array.

It swept over like divine sense, covering the entire body.

The power of the formation seemed to pause, then lock itself in place, remaining still.

Qin Chuan remained calm; he was looking for the Western Sea Alliance.

If someone from this place comes looking for him, it means that Ancestor Yuwen is concerned about the death of Yuwen Qing.

I made a lot of preparations and knew my own identity.

If no one comes looking for you, then this matter becomes rather intriguing.

Almost the instant Qin Chuan arrived, on one of the many boats that made up the market town.

Inside an extremely luxurious boat, two old men were sitting cross-legged in meditation.

One of them, dressed in a red robe, was a cultivator at the ninth level of the Xuanzong realm.

Beside him stood another elderly man, dressed in a long black robe, with colorful patterns on his face.

With his eyes closed, he exuded an aura that was infinitely close to the peak of the ninth level of the Xuanzong realm.

Although it is not quite enough, it is obviously not far off.

These two were the strongest members of the West Sea Alliance stationed in this sixth market.
