#726 - The Great Battle (VII)
Given the current situation, not only would we agree to their requested fee, but we would agree even if it were more outrageous.
It's better to keep the green hills than to worry about firewood. If the fee makes them unhappy and they leave in a huff,
and then Qin Yi leads his army to attack, we'll be left with nothing but tears.
It's like the relationship between a hen that lays eggs and the eggs themselves.
Xuan Zhong is simply demanding a large number of eggs to put in his own pocket. Although it seems like a big loss, we still have the hen.
As long as we have the hen, and everyone here is an immortal with infinite lifespan,
we can accumulate these things again over a long period of time.
But if we upset Xuan Zhong for short-term gain,
and Qin Yi comes knocking on our door, it won't just be about the eggs anymore.
The hen will disappear as well!
The crowd started expressing their gratitude:
"We are extremely grateful for Elder Xuan Zhong's assistance. This is a small token of our appreciation, please accept it."
"Elder Xuan Zhong has traveled a long way to help us overcome this difficulty. This kindness is invaluable!"
"We thank Elder Xuan Zhong, and we thank Xuanhuo Heavenly Sect! You've saved us from dire straits! Your virtue is truly admirable!"
"That Great Ming Qin Emperor is far too oppressive. We hope Elder Xuan Zhong will kill him!"
...
All seven forces, including Water King, the sect leader of Weak Water Sect whose territory has been completely occupied, presented their gifts.
Xuan Zhong's appearance gave Water King a glimmer of hope in the darkness!
As long as he can kill that Great Ming Qin Emperor, even if Weak Water Sect's territory is divided among the other six forces, he will still have some left.
With the remaining territory, Water King's life may not be as good as before, but he can still live comfortably.
Xuan Zhong accepted the spatial rings from everyone, scanned them with his divine sense, and a smile appeared on his face. He said, "What are you all doing? Am I, Xuan Zhong, the kind of person who takes advantage of others' misfortune!"
"Please take back these spatial rings. I, Xuan Zhong, am a warm-hearted person who helps those in need! I cannot accept your gifts!"
Despite his words, Xuan Zhong's hands were not slow at all, and he pocketed all the spatial rings.
The people from the seven forces twitched their eyelids slightly at this sight.
We are all old foxes, let's not pretend to be naive!
The words spoken on the surface are all high-sounding, but everyone knows what's really going on!
Despite this, everyone smiled and said:
"Elder Xuan Zhong may be noble and not want any fees, but we certainly cannot not give them!"
"That's right, that's right! This is a small token of our appreciation, please accept it."
"If Elder Xuan Zhong doesn't accept it, we will truly be ashamed!"
"Elder Xuan Zhong, we're counting on you for this!"...
Xuan Zhong pretended to be troubled and said, "Since everyone is so enthusiastic, then I will accept it."
In his heart, he thought, "These people are quite sensible! Hmph! How could this elder take action without some benefits?"
Seeing that Xuan Zhong had accepted the benefits, Bei Xuan opened his mouth and said, "Elder Xuan Zhong, when do you plan to depart?"
Xuan Zhong changed his previous unhurried demeanor and said, "Of course, I'm leaving now!"
"The longer we delay, the more losses everyone will suffer!"
"How can I, Xuan Zhong, sit idly by and watch everyone suffer losses from that Great Ming Qin Emperor?"
"I'm off!"
Now that he had the benefits, there was no point in staying here.
Xuan Zhong also wanted to kill Qin Yi and return to Xuanhuo Heavenly Sect to continue his cultivation.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Zhong disappeared in front of everyone...
Bei Xuan and the others looked at each other, no one mentioned the benefits they had just given, and instead, they all said:
"Let's hope Elder Xuan Zhong can kill that Great Ming Qin Emperor!"
"Perfected Earth Immortal Realm versus Perfected Human Immortal Realm, it's definitely a sure win!"
"Alas~ Although that's what we say, I still feel uneasy in my heart! I don't know why."
"You're just overthinking it. Let's wait here quietly for Elder Xuan Zhong's good news."
-------------------------------------
Qin Liang, Qin Lin, and Qin Yi stood together.
Below, the Heavenly Court First Army was constantly collecting the Heavenly Mystery Sect's territory and cultivation resources.
As with the last war, the cultivation resources from this war, apart from the necessary benefits distributed to the many soldiers, all went into Qin Yi's pocket.
The harvested cultivation resources were temporarily kept by Qin Lin, and would be distributed uniformly after the war ended.
Of the Earth Immortals and Human Immortals who had previously besieged Qin Yi, less than half remained.
Three Early-Stage Earth Immortals remained. It is worth mentioning that Xing Jian was still alive!
To survive, Xing Jian used every ounce of his strength, throwing out various means as if they were free.
Of the thirty-five Perfected Human Immortals, fifteen remained.
Many cultivators fled in panic like stray dogs! They completely lost the demeanor they once had as strong individuals!
This was still under Qin Yi's control. If Qin Yi hadn't deliberately controlled it, these people would have long been dead.
After killing these people, Qin Yi's overall attribute amplification temporarily reached 345%!
He could unleash an attack intensity at the Perfected Earth Immortal Realm!
However, this Perfected Earth Immortal Realm was still somewhat short of peak strength.
Qin Yi estimated that if he wanted his burst attack to reach the peak of the Perfected Earth Immortal Realm, he would have to kill at least ten more people.
With Qin Yi's current overall attribute amplification, in a way, he was no less than a Perfected Earth Immortal!
Whether it was attack intensity, speed, or other aspects, apart from the realm, he was completely a Perfected Earth Immortal Realm expert!
"This [Eleventh-Order Hundred Kill Pill] is truly extraordinary!"
"These five million system store points were worth it!" Qin Yi thought to himself.
In the system's storage space, the neatly arranged spatial rings were worth far more than five million system store points.
"Calculating the time, given the current situation, the Xuanhuo Heavenly Sect's expert should be appearing soon."
Qin Yi's two goals in using the [Eleventh-Order Hundred Kill Pill] were:
First, to completely destroy the surrounding seven major forces, of which he had now completed one-seventh.
Second, to use this opportunity to make Xuanhuo Heavenly Sect completely fear him.
After all, he couldn't be in the [Eleventh-Order Hundred Kill Pill] state all the time.
Once the battle ended, the amplification from the [Eleventh-Order Hundred Kill Pill] would no longer exist.
At that time, Qin Yi's combat power would drop sharply, returning to what it was before.
Making Xuanhuo Heavenly Sect fear him would at least buy Qin Yi time to undergo tribulation later.
There have been too many things happening recently, one after another, and the enemies are getting stronger and stronger. Undergoing tribulation has become an imminent matter.
"After dealing with the current situation, I must undergo tribulation!"
"As long as I can undergo tribulation and become an Earth Immortal Realm expert, the threat from Xuanhuo Heavenly Sect will not be so great!"
"And to become an Earth Immortal Realm expert, I must win some time to undergo tribulation!"
"At the very least, Xuanhuo Heavenly Sect cannot interfere when I am undergoing tribulation... Whether or not I can make Xuanhuo Heavenly Sect fear me depends on how the situation develops next."
