Chapter 63: Sensing Spirit Herb Talent! New Intel and Solution!

At the border of Youzhou.

Thirty miles from Lingshan City, beyond Qingcha Mountain.

"Where is the Three-Corpse Gu King Jar?! Who took my treasure?!"

An old man, tall with snow-white hair and a ruddy complexion, stood in a ruined temple, glaring at the charred corpse of Lin Tong with eyes as venomous as a snake. A terrifying aura emanated from him.

Around Su Tianhai stood seven youths with sinister auras, all shivering in fear.

"All of you, get out and find it!"

"If you don't find the Three-Corpse Gu King Jar within three days, you'll all die!"

With a wave of his sleeve, Su Tianhai sent the seven disciples tumbling several feet away. They quickly scrambled to their feet and scattered in different directions.

Su Tianhai was seething with rage.

The Three-Corpse Gu King Jar was crucial for his advancement to the true martial arts Xiantian realm!

It could not be lost!

These dogs had the audacity to covet their master's treasure when he wasn't even dead, just temporarily insane?

If they weren't still somewhat useful, he would've crushed them with the Mother-Child Gu long ago!

"Hmm?"

"Little darling! Why are you here? Where's the Three-Corpse Gu King Jar?"

Suddenly, Su Tianhai spotted a finger-thick, three-inch-long snow-white gu worm crawling towards him. It was the 'Scent-Tracking Gu' stolen by his disciple Lin Tong. If the Scent-Tracking Gu was here, where was the Three-Corpse Gu King Jar?

The Scent-Tracking Gu quickly crawled onto Su Tianhai's hand, its long antennae pointing towards Qingcha Market down the mountain.

Delighted, Su Tianhai immediately picked up the Scent-Tracking Gu and sped down the mountain.

Fifty miles from Yingchou Ravine.

In Hongye Town.

At seven in the evening.

In a quiet three-room house, Qin Wang looked at his cross-legged sister with disbelief. "Sis, you entered so quickly?"

"Yes, I sensed the flow of qi after practicing twice."

Qin Xuemei blinked her beautiful eyes, equally surprised.

"Sis, it seems you have an extraordinary talent for cultivation!"

Qin Wang studied his sister, deeply shocked.

What kind of spiritual root talent was this?

After all, he had practiced the Five Elements Gathering Qi Technique more than ten times without sensing any qi!

"Sis, this might just be a coincidence. Keep practicing, and you should sense the qi soon too."

Qin Xuemei comforted Qin Wang.

"Yeah."

Qin Wang nodded. It seemed his sister had an excellent spiritual root. He decided to keep practicing and see if he could enter the path.

In the early hours.

[Daily Intel Refreshed!]

[Today's Intel!]

[1: Yesterday, while observing the Five Elements Divine Light Jar, you received intel that Wudu Sect's leader, Su Tianhai, arrived at Baiyun Temple but found no Three-Corpse Gu King Jar. However, he encountered the returning 'Scent-Tracking Gu.' Using the Scent-Tracking Gu, he will trace your location to Hongye Town in 15 days. Su Tianhai, currently a half-step into the Xiantian realm, is determined to retrieve the jar as it is crucial for his breakthrough.]

[2: Yesterday, while observing the Five Elements Divine Light Jar, you received intel that Su Tianhai, due to a fit of madness, consumed the brain matter of Yang Qingyun, the young son of Qinglong Association's leader Yang Yuting, along with two accompanying protectors. Yang Yuting has been searching for the culprit without success.]

[3: Yesterday, while practicing the Five Elements Gathering Qi Technique, you received intel that its creator, Murong Jiuhua, fought to the death against external invaders during the Great War of Myriad Spirits, shedding his last drop of blood for humanity before his reincarnation.]

[4: Yesterday, while observing the spirit stones, you received intel that one of the three great immortal sects of Dacang, Wanhuamen, discovered a spirit stone mine in the Tianyin Mountains. The sects Batamen and Lingyaomen demanded a share, and Wanhuamen, unable to fight on multiple fronts, agreed to jointly mine the spirit stones. Sect Leader Shangguan Haitang believes the only way to break the deadlock is through her breakthrough or by recruiting exceptionally talented disciples. Opting for the latter, she decided to expand the recruitment of disciples.]

[5: Yesterday, while observing the storage bag of Master Qingyao, you received intel that it contains spirit stones, a magic sword, and elixirs.]

[6: Yesterday, while studying the Fire Spirit Saber technique, you received intel that it was created by an elder of Batamen and requires a fire spiritual root to practice.]

[7: Yesterday, while focusing on Qin Xuemei, you received intel that she, worried about being a burden to you, diligently sought solutions while rigorously training. She quickly entered the path of cultivation due to consuming a three-hundred-year-old ginseng slice, awakening a talent for sensing spiritual herbs and plants.]

[8: Yesterday, while wearing the mysterious fragment, you received intel that due to its effects of stabilizing qi, calming the mind, and enhancing mental strength, your future divine sense will far exceed that of cultivators at the same level.]

[9: Yesterday, while obtaining the relics of Master Qingyao, you received intel that Zhao Yulong, who assassinated Master Qingyao, is currently an external affairs elder of Xiaodan Mountain.]

[10: Yesterday, while practicing the Five Elements Gathering Qi Technique, you received intel that you will enter the path in seven days.

"Refreshed?"

Qin Wang looked at the panel with anticipation.

"The leader of Wudu Sect, Su Tianhai, a half-step Xiantian, will find Hongye Town in 15 days with the help of the Scent-Tracking Gu?"

Qin Wang frowned deeply at the first piece of intel.

He was currently only at the mid-second-rate level. If he encountered Su Tianhai, who was a half-step Xiantian, he would undoubtedly die!

"Damn it."

"No way, I can't wait for him to come; I must find a way to deal with Su Tianhai!"

Qin Wang's expression darkened.

He loathed the feeling of being hunted! Truly loathed it!

Currently, his only reliance was the intel panel.

"Wait? Su Tianhai consumed the brain matter of Qinglong Association's leader Yang Yuting's young son, Yang Qingyun, during a fit of madness?"

Qin Wang quickly glanced through the remaining pieces of intel and his eyes lit up upon seeing the second one. This could be used to pit Qinglong Association against Wudu Sect, diverting Su Tianhai's attention from hunting him!

Qin Wang, having arrived in Jinzhou, had some understanding of its martial factions.

Jinzhou had three major associations.

Wudu Sect, Qinglong Association, and Shahu Gang.

These three factions were spread across Jinzhou's forty-six counties and were evenly matched.

If Qinglong Association's leader, Yang Yuting, knew that Su Tianhai had consumed his son's brain matter, he would undoubtedly seek vengeance against Su Tianhai.

Feeling more assured, Qin Wang continued to examine the remaining intel.

"The creator of the Five Elements Gathering Qi Technique is Murong Jiuhua, and the Great War of Myriad Spirits?"

Qin Wang was intrigued by the third piece of intel.

This was the second time the panel mentioned the Great War of Myriad Spirits.

He hadn't realized the Five Elements Gathering Qi Technique had such a significant origin!

"One of Dacang's three great immortal sects, Wanhuamen, is recruiting disciples?"

Qin Wang was moved by the fourth piece of intel. Joining a sect was the best way to cultivate safely.

Initially, Qin Wang planned to join Xiaodan Mountain, but with this new intel, Wanhuamen seemed a better option. He decided to gather more intel about Wanhuamen.

He skimmed through the fifth and sixth pieces.

"My sister awakened a talent for sensing spiritual herbs and plants after consuming a three-hundred-year-old ginseng slice?"

Qin Wang was shocked by the seventh piece of intel.

No wonder his sister sensed qi after practicing the Five Elements Gathering Qi Technique only three times. She had a talent for sensing spiritual herbs!

"Because of wearing the mysterious fragment, my divine sense will far exceed that of cultivators at the same level in the future?"

"It seems I should pay more attention to collecting the remaining fragments."

Qin Wang pondered the eighth piece of intel.

A single fragment had such effects; what would the combined effect of fifty fragments be?

He skimmed over the ninth piece.

"I will enter the path of the Five Elements Gathering Qi Technique in seven days?"

"This means I do have a spiritual root."

Qin Wang sighed in relief at the tenth piece of intel.

Though his entry into the path was slower than his sister's, he was glad he could cultivate. With the help of the proficiency panel, he believed he would eventually succeed.

"The first thing to do is inform Yang Yuting about Su Tianhai consuming his son's brain matter!"

"Deal with Su Tianhai!"

Qin Wang planned his next steps.
