Qin Hao waved his hand. “Don’t worry, I have my ways.”

These past years, he had not stayed in one place, instead traveling and roaming the East Barrens. From this journey, he had obtained many inheritances and treasures, enough to save his life. Most of those inheritances were from ancient times. With those treasures, even a Saint Realm expert attacking could not kill him.

“Actually…” Cao Yun said solemnly, “I think you should inform Senior Brother first, or else…I’m afraid there will be chaos! Also, with your current strength, even entering their headquarters, how much disaster could you bring the Spirit Race?”

Qin Hao’s strength in the cultivation world could at best be considered mediocre. Although his combat prowess was incredibly formidable, capable of slaying Nirvana Realm experts, once he entered the Spirit Race’s headquarters, this level of strength wouldn’t be enough. No telling how many Nirvana Realm and Quasi-Saint experts were inside. The moment he stepped in, they would swarm and overwhelm him, no matter how heaven-defying he was. Even Su Chen entering would gain nothing, let alone Qin Hao who was only at the Spirit Sea Realm.

“I have a feeling I’ll soon break through to the middle stage or even the late stage of the Spirit Sea Realm!” Qin Hao suddenly said.

Upon hearing this, Cao Yun’s expression stiffened as he stared at Qin Hao wordlessly. As expected of a monster who possessed the Longevity Immortal Body! Cao Yun’s speed came from his secret treasure, yet Qin Hao relied solely on his talent to advance so quickly. Even with his treasure, Cao Yun had to marvel at this near heaven-defying pace, from the initial-stage God Altar Realm to the middle-stage Spirit Sea Realm in just a year! Even the Qin family’s prodigy Qin Yuan who had two peerless talents was no better!

“Wait…” Cao Yun looked at Qin Hao, shock in his eyes. “Don’t tell me you plan to undergo the Nirvana Tribulation in the Spirit Race’s headquarters!”

Their headquarters was far from here. Just getting there would take Qin Hao at least a year. If he knew how to set up a teleportation formation, this time would be significantly reduced. Or… He could search for an ancient teleportation formation. This way, the time could be shortened by a considerable amount. At least it could be shortened by about half a year. In that time, with his talents, he could likely reach the Nirvana Realm! By undergoing tribulation there, things would change. Once he reached the Nirvana Realm, he could choose to undergo the Nirvana Tribulation right within the Spirit Race’s headquarters. The situation would be different at that time. Even if there were many Spirit Race experts, they wouldn’t dare to approach Qin Hao. After all, the Nirvana Tribulation was no joke. Anyone who dared to get close might not only die but also suffer severe consequences.

But the problem was if Qin Hao transcended his Nirvana Tribulation within the Spirit Race’s headquarters, it would affect many experts. By then, the Nirvana Tribulation was very likely to upgrade to the Saint Tribulation. At that time, not only would the Spirit Race be in trouble, but Qin Hao himself might also end up permanently staying within the Spirit Race.

“I do have this intention,” Qin Hao readily admitted.

Cao Yun was helpless. After some time, he said resignedly, “Best tell Senior Brother about this.” Back at the God Demon Sect’s ruins, he had seen Su Chen’s attitude toward Qin Hao. If Qin Hao were to truly fall, then it was likely that the entire East Barrens would be plunged into massive turmoil. At the very least, Su Chen definitely wouldn’t let it slide. If Su Chen were to really make a move against the Spirit Race… Then numerous powerful forces might get involved, and there could even be experts at the Saint Realm, or even the Great Saint Realm, or the Saint King Realm… A war between those realms would devastate the East Barrens! Moreover, Su Chen meant much to Cao Yun, and Qin Hao was his brother, so if Cao Yun did nothing, he would feel guilty.

With this thought, Cao Yun looked at Qin Hao resolutely, but before speaking, Qin Hao said, “I hope Brother Cao can keep this secret!” Su Chen had helped him greatly, and he didn’t want to always rely on and trouble him. Moreover, Su Chen’s own situation was precarious. Involving him now would drag him into the fire. Qin Hao also didn’t want Su Chen to face a siege from numerous forces because of him.

“Alright, I promise you,” Cao Yun said after a long look at Qin Hao. He shook his head helplessly. Then… He placed one hand behind his back, feigning a helpless expression. In a hidden angle that Qin Hao couldn’t see, he discreetly took out a communication jade slip and swiftly composed a message. With that done, his helpless look disappeared, replaced by a smile. “1 don’t have much to do right now, so I might as well accompany you to see what the Spirit Race is like. The two of us going together can also provide some company.”

Qin Hao stared at Cao Yun suspiciously before nodding. “Alright.”

A few days later, two figures descended from the sky, one man and one woman, both stunning. Solemnity filled their eyes as they gazed ahead.

“Is this the Demon Slaying Altar?” Su Chen murmured, looking at the scene. They had flown here through the void. Although Su Chen couldn’t do this with his strength, he now had Long Wu. The journey from the Purple Clouds had taken just days, making Su Chen sigh at a Saint King Realm powerhouse’s might.

“Didn’t expect such a place in the East Barrens,” Long Wu said, staring ahead. “That black mountain range looks peculiar…”

“Hmm.” Su Chen nodded, scanning their surroundings. “I sense a terrifying aura within, as if many experts are buried here… This is the Demon Slaying Altar….”
