Special Expert of Beauty CEO-Chapter 1674 - 1678: The Power of an Expert’s Intimidation
After letting Lin Fang and the others go, Qin Tian and his group of four continued to walk forward.
At this point, they were gradually approaching the Spiritual Cloud Valley, and Qin Tian learned from Lin Fang that a secret cave had been discovered near the valley, attracting various cultivators instantly.
Lin Fang and his friends originally wanted to join the excitement, but when they heard that one of their enemies was also heading there, they decided to bypass the area and ended up encountering Qin Tian's group.
Liu Yunmeng walked alongside Qin Tian, occasionally looking at him, always feeling that Qin Tian sometimes gazed at her with a very peculiar expression.
Finally, when Qin Tian looked over, she directly met his gaze and said without words, "Qin Tian, why are you looking at me with such a mysterious and strange expression?"
Qin Tian laughed and said, "I just wanted to see if after following me and partaking in the robbery, acquiring so many cultivation resources, you feel uneasy about breaking the law, or are excited about the gains?"
Liu Yunmeng was stunned for a moment, her face turning slightly red, and noticing Zhu Chengzhi and Chen Xiaolong secretly laughing, she pursed her lips and said, "Boring," and then walked straight ahead.
However, at this time, there was a faint smile of satisfaction at the corner of her mouth.
Rumbling...
They hadn't walked far when they heard a loud noise coming from the distant Spiritual Cloud Valley, and in the sky, the moonlight seemed partly obscured by clouds.
At the same time, as they were about five kilometers away from the valley, they almost simultaneously saw streams of True Qi shooting into the sky above the distant valley, followed by figures moving briskly and intense collisions of True Qi.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The explosive sounds of True Qi filled the air, indicating that many people were indeed fighting in the Spiritual Cloud Valley, and the battle appeared quite fierce.
"Qin Tian, judging by the True Qi coming from Spiritual Cloud Valley, there are strong cultivators at the Late Stage of the Longevity Realm and even at the Peak of the Longevity Realm over there. I estimate there might also be experts from the Small Immortal Realm. It's too terrifying... Shouldn't we bypass it and retreat?"
Zhu Chengzhi, feeling an overall sense of the cultivation levels in the distant True Qi, felt timid and hesitated.
Liu Yunmeng and Chen Xiaolong also sensed the strength in the True Qi, and both were at the Middle Stage of the Longevity Realm. They initially felt emboldened by Qin Tian's words to come and try their luck at the Spiritual Cloud Valley, but now, confronted by the experts' terror, they were scared.
"If the four of us go there, we'd be like ants. The Spiritual Cloud Valley is rich in cultivation resources, naturally attracting experts from all quarters, any one appearance from a Small Immortal Realm expert could crush us to dust. Forget it, I'm not going. I feel my gains are already substantial. With proper cultivation, in the next month surviving in the immortal pathway, I'll surely advance to the Late Stage of the Longevity Realm."
Chen Xiaolong announced his withdrawal.
Liu Yunmeng looked at Qin Tian and said, "Qin Tian, I'm sorry, I have to withdraw too. Like Xiaolong, I understand my capabilities well; I must accept my fate as such. This time, if I can advance to the Late Stage of the Longevity Realm through cultivation, I will be satisfied. So, sorry, I can't accompany you on this adventure. I advise you to contemplate; Spiritual Cloud Valley isn't a place where Longevity Realm cultivators like us can confidently enter and exit safely."
All three were unwilling to proceed further, and their gazes turned toward Qin Tian.
Qin Tian understood their worries; he himself was aware of the danger.
But how can one gain a tiger's cub without entering the tiger's lair?
Moreover, for this cultivation on the immortal pathway, Qin Tian aimed for more than just advancing a level or two; he sought to enhance his strength to the maximum extent, to fully explore his body's potential, so that upon returning to the Imperial City, he may make his mark on the Cultivation Immortality List!
This decision meant that upon encountering danger, Qin Tian could not retreat, or else he would remain ordinary.
"Alright then, my friends, our meeting was indeed fate. Since none of you wish to proceed, let's part ways here. As for the demon beast cores, Yunmeng, Xiaolong, you both already have one. I'll keep the Beast Core from the Armored Rhinoceros. As for the Pig Demon Core, Zhu Chengzhi, take it. Each of you gets one, making it evenly divided."
Qin Tian took the Armored Rhinoceros Beast Core and handed it to Zhu Chengzhi.
Zhu Chengzhi expressed deep gratitude, saying, "Qin Tian, initially I might have offended you, and didn't anticipate you forgiving past grievances. Truly... I'm grateful; goodbye for now. I hope we all manage to return safely from the immortal pathway. If we get out, Qin Tian, remember to visit us at Yunshui Villa in the Imperial City."
"Goodbye for now."
Qin Tian bid farewell to Zhu Chengzhi and the others individually, and they turned toward another direction.
Reality is like this: ambition loftier than the sky, yet fate thinner than paper.
They eagerly approached the vicinity of Spiritual Cloud Valley, realizing they could not hope to leave it alive, prudently deciding to retreat.
But Qin Tian, knowingly facing the risks, chose to venture forward regardless.
He gazed up at the sky and muttered, "Since I've come this far, as long as I live to leave, I can no longer allow others to behave recklessly in front of me as they did before!"
In the sky, True Qi surged; even from five kilometers away, Qin Tian could feel the force waves emanating from the Spiritual Cloud Valley, causing the earth to shake, trees to sway, with violent winds arising!
"Indeed, experts are gathered here..."
Coming back to his senses, Qin Tian took a deep breath and decided against approaching recklessly.
He found a secluded spot, took out the Armored Rhinoceros Beast Core, and spent more than ten minutes absorbing it. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
After absorption, Qin Tian felt his Dan Tian Qi Sea was fuller, along with his muscles and bones feeling more elastic and stronger.
"The Armored Rhinoceros truly enhances my defense; it lives up to its reputation..."
Feeling the evident improvement in his strength after absorbing the Armored Rhinoceros, a smile appeared at Qin Tian's lips.
In this cultivation on the immortal pathway, every gain is immediate, truly encouraging.
"Hmm?"
When Qin Tian finished cultivation and began absorbing Spiritual Energy from ten blocks of High Grade Spirit Stones, he discovered the black stone obtained from Lin Fang.
"Is this a Spirit Stone? Should I try absorbing it too?"
Curiously, Qin Tian clearly felt Spiritual Energy emanating from the black stone, albeit weak, but certainly present.
Thus, he tried cultivating with the black stone like a Spirit Stone, but after several minutes, it had no effect.
"Hmm... could it be some kind of beast core?"
Suddenly, Qin Tian entertained a bold thought; the stone was roundish, and apart from its color differing from usual beast cores, in other respects, it seemed almost identical!
