A Top Scholar in Everything-Chapter 912 - 898: Blood Qi Bead

Baiyu quickly grasped the current situation, realizing that the leader of the small martial artists' group, the young girl, was actually one of Qian Xin's avatars. This individual's true form resided within the Miracle Tower in the Great City.

Outwardly acting.

All of them were her numerous avatars.

Therefore, whenever there was an urgent matter that needed addressing, she would handle it, essentially making her the primary firefighter of the Great City.

The Evil Laughing Guanyin had clearly encountered a problem.

The fact that Qian Xin was so cautious, even borrowing most of her power from her main body, demonstrated just how bizarre this Evil Laughing Guanyin was.

Baiyu retreated beside her and asked, "What exactly is this Evil Laughing Guanyin? It appears very sinister but different from those pollutants and aberrant forms."

This was something he had never encountered before.

Qian Xin pondered for a moment, seemingly searching for words in her mind, and finally said, "Indeed, it is different. This should be a person who has refined themselves into a Sealing Object... Judging by the era, it's been a long time. It somehow found a way to enter the Blessed Land, occupied this hall, and devoured all the heavenly treasures within the Immortal Palace.

Judging by its appearance now.

It's attempting to devour human essence and blood to strengthen itself.

It wants to become a god."

Qian Xin spoke exaggeratedly; to become a god, this Evil Laughing Guanyin was truly absurd.

"Now it's already halfway there. There's not just one Evil Laughing Guanyin in the world; over the years, it has devoured an astronomical number of martial artists' Blood Qi. After purification, this Blood Qi would be absorbed by its main body to enhance its strength."

Qian Xin said with a solemn voice.

"Main body?"

At this moment, Baiyu still didn't retract the Black Moon Power and Golden Blood, remaining in battle status to prevent any unexpected events.

"Yes, the main body. This Jade Glaze Guanyin Statue is merely an avatar and not where the main body resides, thus proving to be problematic. If the main body isn't dealt with, destroying just one avatar is merely a temporary solution."

Qian Xin patiently explained to Baiyu.

But after a moment, she shook her head again, "The main body is too cunning. As soon as it sensed my probing, it immediately severed the connection with this Jade Glaze Guanyin Statue. It is now virtually impossible to find it."

Upon hearing these words, Baiyu glanced at the Jade Guanyin in the center of the hall, which no longer exuded that sinister aura.

Now it just looked like a normal Jade Guanyin statue.

There was no sign of the previous sinister smile.

Qian Xin walked in front of the Jade Guanyin Statue, stretched out her fist, and struck the statue right in the center, causing the whole Guanyin Statue to crack instantly, revealing several blood-red beads inside.

"These are Blood Qi Beads condensed by the Jade Guanyin through absorbing Blood Qi. In the past, the main body would come periodically to retrieve them, but since this Jade Guanyin Statue is destroyed, it's unlikely the other side will return to the Carefree Blessed Land."

Qian Xin held several Blood Qi Beads in her hand, "These are useless to me, but for you, they're precisely the supplement that can enhance your Realm. Although the Blood Qi originates from other martial artists, it's the purest Blood Qi refined by the Jade Guanyin, free from any impurities.

I heard you're a new disciple of Loloya, consider this as a meeting gift."

After speaking.

She tossed the Blood Qi Beads to Baiyu.

After receiving the Blood Qi Beads, Baiyu didn't ingest them, but instead placed them directly into his pocket. The effects of these Blood Qi Beads still needed discussion, and it wasn't the right time for a breakthrough. Although according to Qian Xin, these Blood Qi Beads could allow him to step directly into the Grandmaster Realm, Baiyu remained rational.

After the Jade Glaze Guanyin was shattered by Qian Xin.

The people left alive inside the hall quickly regained consciousness but dashed out immediately upon seeing everything in front of them. Almost everyone, once awake, rushed towards the exit of the hall at the fastest speed.

They wouldn't even listen to Qian Xin's and Baiyu's explanations.

After all.

No one could believe whether the two standing within the hall were actually vengeful ghosts, given how many eerie things existed in the Blessed Land, making it hard to trust their senses.

Except for Qian Xin's original subordinates.

Practically, everyone who woke up, including Scarface and Ba Fist, ran away.

"There's nothing more worth exploring in this Immortal Palace, let's retreat and check other places in the Blessed Land."

Qian Xin told her subordinates.

Apparently.

Her subordinates didn't know that the person before them was the City Lord's Attendant.

However, Qian Xin had many avatars.

Which might involve various facets within the Great City, and others hadn't seen Qian Xin's true form, so naturally, they wouldn't recognize her.

Everyone nodded.

This journey had been perilous, with many narrow escapes, and several had already considered retreating; but without the boss's word, how dare these underlings decide on their own.

The return trip didn't encounter any issues.

After dealing with the Evil Laughing Guanyin, the entire Carefree Immortal Palace returned to normal. However, according to Qian Xin, this Carefree Immortal Palace was merely a low-level version; beyond the Eighteen Gates lay the true Carefree Immortal Palace.

But given the current situation, entry into the Eighteen Gates was not yet feasible.

Firstly, Spiritual Qi Revival hadn't reached a certain level, making the later stages difficult to access, and secondly, danger lurked behind, making it difficult for ordinary people to enter. Even for City Lord's Attendants, they had to be exceptionally cautious, as one careless move could lead to destruction.

Baiyu descended the mountain with Qian Xin.

But after returning, the village they initially entered had vanished, replaced by a sea of ghostly green flames. Numerous martial artists had already gathered in front of the Carefree Immortal Palace's mountain gate, staring at the sea of fire, their faces full of worry.

There was no turning back.

This ghostly green fire could burn the earth itself, turning this place into Flame Mountain, ensuring certain death for anyone who ventured in.

However, it was unknown what method Qian Xin used.

Regardless, as she approached the mountain gate, the vast flames astonishingly extinguished inch by inch, soon revealing charred land. Although the crowd was amazed, they didn't squander this narrow opportunity and swarmed into the previously mentioned tomb garden.

Everyone safely passed through the village and returned to the river where they had been before.

The boatman still waited by the river.

Well, ten copper coins to board; he monopolizes the business, being the only one capable of ferrying people across the river.

"Boatman, what's beneath this river? Why does anyone who falls in immediately dissolve into blood, while your boat remains unaffected?"

Someone curiously asked.

The boatman chuckled, revealing his yellow teeth, "Young man, my boat isn't made of ordinary wood but crafted from the bones of those who died unjustly, an heirloom treasure. Naturally, it can traverse the Unfloating River."
