Chapter 310: Heaven’s Fate Gate.
Star Gazing Tower.
Su Qin’s thoughts soon calmed down.
No matter how powerful the [12 Divine Beasts Figures] would be in the end, Su Qin hasn’t even completed the [Burning Sun Divine Art]. He was still miles away from even reaching Great Accomplishment.
“Hmm, the fact that these Sect Masters have personally come to appease me, means that there are really no Earth Immortals in the Sects…”
Su Qin had a thoughtful look on his face.
If the Major Sects had Earth Immortals, they would never take the initiative to apologize, nor agree with Su Qin’s demands.
“It’s a pity…”
Su Qin’s eyes flashed with disappointment.
Originally, he wanted to force out an Earth Immortal to see the True Power of the Golden Crow Divine Body. The seven Half-Step Earth Immortals didn’t make Su Qin spend much effort nor did he get to use his new eye magic power. Naturally, he couldn’t gauge the limit of his physique.
“However, other than the Sect Masters, it seems that there are other people here…”
Su Qin raised his head slightly and looked at a well-known inn in Chang’an City, outside the Imperial Palace.
The inn was called ‘Laifu’ Inn. Under Su Qin’s gaze, hundreds of Qi were revealed; some of which were strong and some weak. However, one Qi was different among the others. It was as if it was veiled with some kind of secret technique, extremely faint. If it wasn’t for the [Eyes of Truth], Su Qin might not have noticed the anomaly.
After all, Qi was the aura of life. As long as it was a living being, one would emit Qi, even an Earth Immortal.
“Someone is watching me secretly?”
Su Qin’s face flashed inexplicably.
Although this Qi did not make Su Qin feel any threat, it was interesting. After all, it was the first time he had seen a technique that could affect one’s Qi this much since he had obtained the [Eyes of Truth].
“It’s not an Earth Immortal…”
Su Qin looked at the Qi carefully again, before shaking his head.
Earth Immortals’ Primordial Spirits were integrated into the ocean of vitality, so they would never be able to hide their qi, no matter how much they try.
“Interesting.”
Su Qin took a step forward and disappeared. When Su Qin reappeared, he was already standing outside the door of the Laifu Inn.

Outside Chang’an City.
The Thunder God Sect Sect Master met with several of his ancestors and quickly explained everything he had experienced in Chang’an City.
As the Ancestors listened, their faces changed. Especially after they heard Su Qin asked the Thunder God Sect to add two more pounds of the Thunder Source Stone. It was painful.
Even giving away one pound would be akin to making them heavily bleed. Moreover, the Thunder Source Stone could not only promote one’s Cultivation, but also play a great role in breaking through bottlenecks.
It could even help Peak Legends break through to the Earth Immortal, as long as there’s enough stones. It allows one’s Primordial Spirit to feel the ocean of vitality in the depths of the void more easily.
It could be said that the Thunder Source Stone was the most precious treasure of the Thunder God Sect other than the supreme treasure. Even the Lightning Tribulation Wood couldn’t compare.
Losing the Lightning Tribulation Wood wouldn’t have a small effect, but losing the Thunder Source Stones had bigger consequences. As it greatly reduced the possibility of the Thunder God Sect producing an Earth Immortal.
“The Tang Empire’s Celestial is too much, does he really think that he can bully the Thunder God Sect on his whim?”
An Ancestor said with anger.
The other Ancestors also had expressions of resentment on their faces.
Finally, everyone looked at the oldest Ancestor.
This old Ancestor was currently the one with the highest status in the Thunder God Sect.
“Do as the Celestial say.”
The oldest Ancestor was silent for a while, before eventually saying.
“But Ancestor, the remaining Thunder Source Stones were prepared for Lei Xuanzi. If Lei Xuanzi returns…”
The Ancestor said hesitantly.
“Lei Xuanzi…”
The Thunder God Sect Sect Master was listening respectfully on the side.
Although he was the Sect Master, in front of the Ancestors, he was an inconspicuous junior. Though, when he heard the words ‘Lei Xuanzi,’ waves were set off in his heart.
Lei Xuanzi was the most talented person in the Thunder God Sect in the last 10,000 years, and was even known as the existence with the most hope of becoming an Earth Immortal.
It’s a pity that Lei Xuanzi suddenly disappeared 300 years ago. If it weren’t for the Fire of Life that belonged to Lei Xuanzi in the depths of the Thunder God Sect still burning, everyone would have thought that Lei Xuanzi had already died.
However, even if Lei Xuanzi did not die, since he couldn’t come back for 300 years, most believe that he was probably trapped somewhere, unable to come out or he was suppressed and sealed.
“It doesn’t matter if Lei Xuanzi can come back in the future.”
“Currently, the Tang Empire’s Celestial is at the top. If the Thunder God Sect goes against the will of the Celestial, even with the supreme treasure, we will not escape extinction.”
The oldest Ancestor said.
“Indeed.”
The Ancestors looked at each other and silently agreed.
If Su Qin only showed the strength of an Earth Immortal, although the Thunder God Sect would be apprehensive, they would not be afraid. They would still remain standing, even after their Earth Immortals had died due to the passage of time.
However, with Su Qin’s potential, he could use the recovery of vitality to take the step and become a Supreme Powerhouse.
Supreme Powerhouse…
Even in the last Prosperous Era, Supreme Powerhouses were existences that look down on the world. When the Demons from the Cave World invaded, it was the Supreme Powerhouses that blocked the enemy’s hundreds of millions of Demons in the Demon army. Otherwise, the Surface World would have turned into a Demon’s land long ago.
Of course, the difficulty in reaching such a level was almost unimaginable.
There were only a few in the last Prosperous Era. All of whom were the children blessed by the Heavens.
Although Su Qin becoming a Supreme Powerhouse was still extremely slim, the Thunder God Sect did not dare to gamble.
It wasn’t only the Thunder God Sect either, the Ancestors of other Major Sects had thought the same.

In the meantime, inside Chang’an City.
The Laifu inn was lively and bustling.
The sons and daughters of officials, merchants, as well as Martial Artists kept coming and going in the inn.
It was said that the Laifu Inn was the property of a big shot in the palace, hence why it was able to stand for so long in Chang’an City without falling.
At this moment, there was only one topic that everyone was talking about in the whole three floors of the Inn.
That was Su Qin.
When Su Qin stood on the city wall just now, he literally looked like a Celestial being, as he pronounced the fate of the many Sect Leaders.
If even overseas Legends were in awe from the display, how could others not be?
While everyone was busy discussing, in a corner of the inn were two Taoists.
One was young and the other old. They were currently sitting there, drinking wine and eating vegetables.
“I haven’t eaten ordinary food for a long time…” The old Taoist squinted at the delicious wine unique to the Laifu Inn, with a look of great enjoyment on his face.
“Master, when the Tang Empire’s Celestial showed up just now, did you see anything?” The young Taoist couldn’t help asking.
“See what?”
“How can this old Taoist dare to peep at a Celestial?” The old Taoist rolled his eyes.
“Ah?”
“But Master, didn’t you say that this time you wanted to check the Tang Empire’s Celestial?” The young Taoist blinked his eyes, not being able to respond for a while.
“Could it be that Master didn’t see anything at all…” The young Taoist stared at the old Taoist suspiciously.
“What nonsense…” The old Taoist glared at the young Taoist and said, “This old Taoist’s Heavenly Art is known to be the best in the world. Even an Earth Immortal wouldn’t be able to escape from it…”
“It’s just that…”
The old Taoist paused, “The Tang Empire’s Celestial is indeed a bit strange. Even after I have taken a closer look at the Tang Empire’s Celestial, I still can’t come up with any useful information, which is really strange…”
The old Taoist touched his chin, before finally shaking his head and said, “Although this old Taoist can’t see anything, the strength displayed by the Tang Empire’s Celestial is very strong. It is no wonder that all the seven Half-Step Earth Immortals have fallen…”
“Ah?”
The Young Taoist panicked, “Master, if the Tang Empire’s Celestial is so strong, wouldn’t he find us secretly spying on him?”
“Impossible!”
The old Taoist denied and said with a proud look on his face, “The Qi Concealment technique handed down from the Heaven’s Fate Gate is undetectable. In the last Prosperous Era, even when face to face with Earth Immortals, they weren’t able to detect it…”
The old Taoist looked around the Laifu Inn.
However, this made his voice stop abruptly, and his face turned pale instantly. As if he saw some incredible scene.
“Master, what’s the matter?” The young Taoist followed the gaze of the old Taoist, and was frightened out of his wits from what he saw.
A tall figure was making his way into the door of the inn.
Every time the figure took a step, an inexplicable aura would envelope the square, causing everyone in the entire inn to fall into stillness.
[Boom~]!
[Boom~]!
[Boom~]!
The footsteps sounded unhurried, as if stepping on the heart of the old Taoist priest.
Under the shocked eyes of the two Taoists, the figure walked in front of them, before sitting on their opposite side, while looking at the two of them calmly.
“Was it you who was spying on me?”
