Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 1398 – I Have a Secret Technique

Fire Spirit had something to say after testing the Crystal Token. After all, this was her specialty, “He did something on it. It is a special space force technique, but I am not sure what it is.”

This wasn’t a big problem. With the general direction settled, he would leave the rest to Stone Pagoda. Stone Pagoda was always capable and this was nothing to him.

As facts would have it, Stone Pagoda was right to be prideful. He had a look at the Crystal Token and he said, “It is a small trouble. They were unlucky to meet me.”

Qin Yu asked, “How long?”

Stone Pagoda hesitated before replying, “Fifteen minutes.” He gave extra time for himself. In the case that he did not complete it by his actual target, Qin Yu would not be mad at him.

All this happened as the battle was occurring. The twin brothers fought fiercely and space force surged violently. Although Qin Yu had learned about space dao before, his mastery of it was way lesser than the brothers’.

Of course, if the twin brothers had not played a trick on the Crystal Token, they would not have passed it to Qin Yu so easily.

This was confidence in their strength. Men were like that and Qin Yu did not mind it.

Kaboom!

Deafening explosions continued endlessly and violent shock waves spreaded through the land. action

Qin Yu’s opponent was Cloud Saint. Cloud Saint was furious and vicious; every attack he made was to kill.

Despite the battle being a three on three, Wind, Cloud and Rain were at a disadvantage. However, they were not overwhelmed miserably and they put up a fight.

Of course, this was also because Qin Yu was holding back. He wanted to enjoy spectating whilst secretly controlling the balance of power. This was actually challenging to pull off, especially since he was doing it in front of ancient Saints.

Qin Yu could feel the suspicion in the twin brothers’ glances at him. They were already doubtful of his motives.

But what could they do? Qin Yu would not ally with them to take the three Saints down quickly.

There was no way he would let that happen.

Fifteen minutes was a short period of time and by now, Stone Pagoda was halfway there. He just needed to hold on for a little longer before the key could be ‘unlocked’.

When that was done, Qin Yu could leave the battle and the True Saints could continue on with their fight for all he cared.

The impact of the battle was massive. Although the twins and Qin Yu had the upper hand, they could not turn the tide of the battle and settle it once and for all.

Gentle Spread Saint frowned and a feeling of uneasiness went through him. He glanced at Qin Yu and although he did not have any concrete evidence, he felt like something was off about Qin Yu.

He was dragging for time? The instant Gentle Spread Saint thought about this possibility, his heart jumped and he made a connection to the space seal he placed on the Crystal Token.

Phew –

Nothing was wrong with it.

If it could be easily broken, Gentle Spread Saint would not have passed the Crystal Token to Qin Yu so willingly. He was not mad.

Gentle Spread Saint sighed out loud and yelled, “Virtuous Nine, Close Saint may come at any moment. We cannot delay any longer!”

He believed Qin Yu’s claim that he was being chased by Close Saint. Otherwise, how would Qin Yu have known that Close Saint was a Ghost Path user?

Using Close Saint to pressure Qin Yu proved useful and this was not a lie. Since Qin Yu met the group of True Saints by coincidence, there was always a possibility that Close Saint would arrive here too.

As he expected, a look of horror crossed Qin Yu’s face. He glanced at Cloud Saint and his attacks grew more aggressive.

His battle with Cloud Saint appeared to be very balanced previously and it would have been a good fight to spectate. However, the tide changed completely and the battle grew more intense.

Gentle Spread Saint’s lips twitched. Virtuous Nine, you thick-skinned bastard. Weren’t you afraid of being seen through? Also, Virtuous Nine was so scared of Close Saint, his attitude took an instant change.

Pathetic!

What was the point of keeping a loser alive? Hehe, after they killed the three True Saints, he would change his target to Virtuous Nine later!

The pressure on Cloud Saint was immense and he pulled together all his strength to defend himself. However, it felt like he was constantly being crushed.

Damn it!

If this continued on, the three Saints would not be able to take it anymore.

“Gentle Spread Saint and Gentle Smoke Saint, Close Saint may come any moment. We cannot delay!” Qin Yu shouted, “I have a secret technique that can trap Cloud Saint and break the linking attacks between the three of them. Please take advantage of that moment to end the battle!”

Gentle Spread Saint’s eyes lit up and he laughed, “Alright. Virtuous Nine, please do it. We will settle this in one shot!”

Qin Yu raised his hand and pointed a finger towards Cloud Saint. However, nothing happened. Instead, Qin Yu gasped as his face turned pale.

Gentle Spread Saint’s smile faded and he asked, “Virtuous Nine, is something wrong?”

Qin Yu sighed and laughed bitterly, “I was injured by Close Saint before and I need some time to prepare in order to unleash this attack smoothly.”

He looked at the twin brothers and said, “Please block them for now. I will finish the preparations in no time!”

Lazy people would find many excuses to delay work…Gentle Spread Saint wanted to kill Qin Yu but now was not the time. He could only force a smile, “Not a problem. Virtuous Nine, please hurry up. After all, we all know that Close Saint can come at any moment!”

Qin Yu’s expression fell again and he reassured, “Don’t worry, I will be done very soon!”

He took a step back and retreated out of the battleground at once. Soon, the aura surrounding him started to surge and there was a crushing pressure around him.

Gentle Spread Saint’s heart clenched and he thought to himself that Virtuous Nine was truly strong. They had to be careful when they killed him later.

On the opposite side, the three True Saints shouted in unison, “Stop him!”

They could not allow Virtuous Nine to unleash his secret technique. If their connection was broken, they were finished.

Kaboom!

As such, both sides fought fiercely and the battleground grew more chaotic.

The aura around Qin Yu was wild and it only became more powerful as time went on. He would be done at any moment.

Gentle Spread Saint grunted and blood seeped out from the corners of his lips. The three True Saints were really giving their all. But there was no way they would be allowed to break the seal between the brothers!

Everything would end very soon.

Suddenly, the wild aura behind them reached a peak.

Virtuous Nine was finally done!

The three True Saints cried in agony at the same moment. However…

Pop!

A light pop sounded like a balloon that burst upon being pumped too big.

It burst…

Qin Yu was like this balloon. After the pop came, he disappeared.

Everyone froze in the air.
