Chapter 351: Cut The Pretense
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qin Chuan brought Shen Qiangwei to a planet.
A massive palace floated above the planet.
Su Hantian and the others were already waiting there.
Shen Qiangwei’s expression became solemn. Based on her experience of over tens of thousands of years, this trip was dangerous.
But it didn’t matter. It was not made in vain since she learned such a huge secret.
This was a spatial immortal artifact at the Divine Kingdom level.
Such an immortal artifact was extremely rare.
According to her knowledge, only the top powers in the Immortal realm possessed immortal artifacts like this.
Only an Immortal Emperor could be considered a top-tier power.
But even top factions did not have a Divine Kingdom-level immortal artifact with such a big space.
Shen Qiangwei was both excited and terrified.
She was excited because bringing this news back would be a huge merit.
Shen Qiangwei had been stuck in the Silver Immortal realm for a long time.
She also knew that the Silver Immortal realm was her limit. To break through, she would need a lot of resources.
Now, the opportunity was right in front of her. As long as he could get out alive, she could breakthrough.
She was now 100% sure that her identity had been exposed.
Seems like this is the sacred ground that those humans speak of.?Shen Qiangwei looked around and started to think about how to deal with this crisis.
Soon, the duo arrived at the square before the palace.
“Master, what is this place?” Shen Qiangwei asked softly after landing.
Qin Chuan smiled. “It is naturally your training ground in the future.”
“Is this… the sacred ground?” Shen Qiangwei pretended to be very excited.
Qin Chuan nodded and smiled.
At this moment, Su Hantian and the others had surrounded them.
“Let me introduce for you.” Qin Chuan said, “This is Senior Su, this is…”
After the introductions were done, Su Hantian said, “Fellow cultivator Qin, there’s no need to continue acting now. Everyone here is smart enough, right? Shen Qiangwei?”
Su Hantian looked at Shen Qiangwei.
Shen Qiangwei was stunned for a moment before she laughed coldly.
She knew that there was no point in keeping up the pretense anymore.
“How could you tell?”
Shen Qiangwei thought that her disguise techniques were brilliant. Back then, it was precisely these disguise techniques that allowed her to deceive and escape the Immortal King experts.
Qin Chuan smiled and said, “Let me explain! Fellow cultivator Su is from the Corpse Refinement Faction.”
Corpse Refinement Faction?
Shen Qiangwei looked at Su Hantian in astonishment.
Qin Chuan continued, “You should know the Corpse Refiners well, yes?
“In addition to cultivating the Dao of corpses, they are one of the best in the Dao of souls in the cultivation world.
“I admit, your disguise was brilliant. I almost didn’t notice.
“Unfortunately, the truth cannot be hidden.”
“Tell me! Which faction are you from? What is your purpose in coming here?” Qin Chuan asked with a serious expression.
Shen Qiangwei was stunned.
She thought that Qin Chuan knew that she was from the Beast Taming Corps.
In that case, there was a solution.
Shen Qiangwei was secretly delighted.
After that, she said, “I’m from the Immortal realm, Qingyun Sect.”
Qingyun Sect?
Qin Chuan glanced at Su Hantian. He wasn’t too familiar with the factions of the Immortal realm.
Su Hantian transmitted his voice, “The Qingyun Sect isn’t that well-known. They are considered a third-rate faction in the Immortal realm. Their strongest is only at the Immortal King realm, they should be three Immortal Kings.”
Qin Chuan was a little surprised.
With three Immortal Kings, they were considered just a third-tier power.?How strong would those above be?
Su Hantian continued, “There are at least ten thousand third-rate factions like the Qingyun Sect in the Immortal realm, if not a thousand.
“Although there are countless factions in the Immortal realm, the Corpse Refinement Faction knows them like the back of our hands.”
The Corpse Refinement Faction specialized in digging other people’s ancestral graves. If they didn’t know everyone well, then what the hell were they doing?
“The Qingyun Sect also wants to get a share of this place?” Qin Chuan stared at Shen Qiangwei.
Shen Qiangwei was not afraid of Qin Chuan’s gaze. She calmly replied, “If I say that I don’t know, would you believe me?”
Then, she continued, “I was originally exploring an Immortal King’s mystic realm, but an accident happened. I was mysteriously transmitted to this space field, and then I discovered the planet you were on.”
Qin Chuan asked, “Then pray tell, why did you pretend to be a student?”
Shen Qiangwei did not hold back and said, “I impersonated a student to see the sacred cultivation ground that everyone was talking about.
“It is said that spiritual energy is very rich in the sacred ground. One day of cultivation is equivalent to one month in the outside world.
“I was quite curious.
“At that time, I searched many times, but I didn’t find an extraordinary cultivation site.
“So I pretended to be a student because I was very curious about the sacred ground.”
“How long have you been here?” Qin Chuan continued asking.
“I think it’s been three years!” Shen Qiangwei said calmly.
“After asking so many questions, I still don’t know your name. How should I address you?” Qin Chuan stared straight into Shen Qiangwei’s eyes.
“It doesn’t matter, I think the name Shen Qiangwei is pretty good,” Shen Qiangwei said casually.
“Then have you achieved your goal?” Qin Chuan continued probing.
“I guess so!” Shen Qiangwei smiled faintly. “Why? Are you already itching to kill me?”
Qin Chuan smiled as well. “I’m not a murderous monster. Don’t think too badly of me.
“However, if possible, will you agree to a soul search?”
Based on personal experience, Qin Chuan thought that he could not believe Shen Qiangwei’s words. Only soul searching was the safest.
Only the answers from soul searching were most reliable.
Shen Qiangwei seemed to have known that Qin Chuan would request to search her soul, so she was not surprised.
If her soul was searched, she would be exposed.
She would not allow Qin Chuan to do that.
But she was alone.
Even though she was a Silver Immortal, the opponent was in great numbers. Most importantly, there was someone whose cultivation realm was higher than hers.
It was highly unlikely that she would be able to escape.
Shen Qiangwei pondered for a moment, and without any warning, she unleashed a divine art at Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan had always been guarded against Shen Qiangwei, so he dodged immediately.
The divine art missed. It rushed out of the atmosphere and struck a planet outside.
The planet exploded.
This was a battle between Immortal realm beings. Destroying a planet was a piece of cake.
Qin Chuan’s expression instantly turned cold.
“Do you need help?” Su Hantian asked indifferently.
Qin Chuan smiled. “There’s no need to trouble fellow cultivator Su. I can handle this alone.
“However, I will need fellow you to look after the other planets.”
“Oh, sure then!” Su Hantian seemed to know that Qin Chuan would say this.
The person beside him said, “This person really knows how to brag. The opponent is a Silver Immortal, and a late-stage Silver Immortal at that.
“As for him? He’s only a Heaven Immortal. I don’t think he’s even at the mid-stage. Where does he get his confidence from?
“Generally speaking, it’s almost impossible to fight someone in a major cultivation realm above and even kill him.”
Most of the others felt the same way.
After the Immortal realm, it was truly too difficult to be a match against those in higher realms.
Unless one had an extremely powerful immortal artifact or magical artifact or a sufficiently deep comprehension of the nomological laws.
These people were extremely, extremely rare.
Coincidentally, Qin Chuan checked two of these boxes.
He had immortal artifacts, not to mention the nomological laws.
When Su Hantian saw that his junior brothers were still in a discussion, he said, “Watch the battle properly!”
