Awakening the intelligence panel, the liver becomes a fairy

4) Yesterday, you arrived at the Nanshan Tribe and obtained intelligence that the tribe’s leader, Atai'er, has a fragment of the Barbarian God Shield.

5) Yesterday, you touched the bag personally sewn by Qin Xue Mei and learned that Qin Xue Mei and her master have returned to the Wan Hua Immortal Sect. Additionally, people from the Medicine Sect secretly followed Qin Xue Mei and infiltrated the Wan Hua Immortal Sect.

6) Yesterday, you practiced the Qingping Sword Technique and learned that you need to practice for another year to master it.

7) Yesterday, you discussed the Da Yan Immortal Dynasty with Yan Cangwu and learned that the Da Yan Immortal Dynasty has reached an agreement with the Da Qi Immortal Dynasty to divide the Tian Chu Immortal Dynasty. The pattern of the Southern Region has changed.

8) Yesterday, you revealed your name to Xiao Chunan, and he has arranged for people to investigate Qin Tie Dan’s information. You will receive news in three days.

9) Yesterday, you used the Qingyou Sword and learned that due to Chen Yi’s death, the Hidden Killing Pavilion has suspended their investigation into you, and all information about you is indefinitely sealed.

10) Yesterday, you used the Qingyou Sword and learned that Xiao Chunan had previously seen three other Qingyou Swords.

Qin Wang glanced at the information and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Wuji Sect?

Originally, as long as Xiao Chunan did not provoke him, he would let him go.

However, it seems that Xiao Chunan must pay a price. After all, he is from the Wuji Sect.

Daring to target Qin Xue Mei means that the Wuji Sect no longer has a reason to exist.

Qin Wang also knew that with his current strength, he couldn't confront the Wuji Sect directly.

However, if he could extract some interest from Xiao Chunan and attract the Wuji Sect’s attention, perhaps it would alleviate the crisis at the Wan Hua Immortal Sect?

And that ancient demonic thought...

Qin Wang initially thought it was just a simple matter of collecting the Condensed Dan Purple Qi, but it now seems there are other secrets involved.

And the Barbarian God Shield fragment...

As Qin Wang was pondering, there was a knock on the door.

Qin Wang extended his divine sense and found that it was Zhang Fujiang knocking.

"Come in."

Qin Wang said lightly.

Zhang Fujiang pushed the door open and entered.

"Master, someone claiming to be Asule, the first warrior of the Nanshan Tribe, requests an audience."

Zhang Fujiang said respectfully.

Qin Wang couldn’t help raising an eyebrow.

He didn’t expect someone from the Nanshan Tribe to come to him voluntarily, and it was the tribe's top warrior.

Qin Wang knew that anyone with the title of first warrior was surely one of the tribe's top experts.

A late-night visit—could it be that he has ulterior motives?

"Let him in."

Qin Wang said slowly.

"Yes, Master."

Zhang Fujiang complied.

Soon, a burly man with a robust build followed Zhang Fujiang and arrived in front of Qin Wang.

Qin Wang looked at the man’s physique and nodded inwardly.

Indeed, as expected of the Western Wilderness barbarians—truly strong and robust. After all, barbarians are mostly body refinement cultivators and appear more robust compared to the Qi Refinement cultivators of the Southern Region.

"Are you their leader?"

Asule curiously sized up Qin Wang.

Although he could not discern Qin Wang’s exact cultivation level, he felt that Qin Wang did not seem strong.

Thinking of this, Asule felt a bit disappointed.

"You came to see me—what is it for?"

Qin Wang looked at him with interest.

"I just wanted to ask if you are interested in joining us to teach those Central Continent cultivators a lesson."

Asule spoke straightforwardly.

For him, since he was already here, there was no need to beat around the bush. After all, the strength of these Qi Refinement cultivators was not apparent. Perhaps this skinny young man had some special secret methods to control five Nascent Soul ghost cultivators.

"Teach a lesson? Just a lesson?"

Qin Wang asked with a faint smile.

"Of course, otherwise, do you want to kill them? That won’t do. The strong ones from the Central Continent, our Nanshan Tribe cannot provoke."

Asule shook his head.

Although he was straightforward, he was not a fool. He understood the difference between what could and couldn’t be done.

He also knew that Xiao Chunan and the others came from powerful sects in the Central Continent, where there were many Nascent Soul true practitioners, and even Transformation Realm true monarchs.

Although the Nanshan Tribe's leader, Atai'er, was a Nascent Soul true practitioner, he had been injured and had not fully recovered, making him no match for those powerful sects.

"You can't provoke them, but it doesn’t mean I can’t. If you are willing to offer some compensation, I can deal with Xiao Chunan and kill him."

Qin Wang didn’t waste words and directly stated his intentions.

This directness left Asule stunned.

He never expected Qin Wang to be so ruthless, immediately suggesting killing someone.

Zhang Fujiang beside him was already used to it.

Anyone who angered Qin Wang had never ended well.

"What? Are you afraid?"

Qin Wang sneered at Asule.

"Alright! What do you want?"

Asule gritted his teeth and quickly made his decision.

In his view, since Qin Wang was going to kill someone anyway, if the powerful sects in the Central Continent were to blame, they could pin the responsibility on Qin Wang.

Qin Wang took out a piece of the Barbarian God Shield fragment.

"Does your leader have something like this?"

Qin Wang asked.

"Mm? What if we do?"

Asule feigned curiosity, looking at the Barbarian God Shield fragment in Qin Wang's hand.

He had seen this thing before, in Atai'er’s possession.

"If you give me this thing, I will act and kill Xiao Chunan and his group."

Qin Wang said and then put away the Barbarian God Shield fragment.

He was not worried that Asule and others would use the fragment to coerce him.

In the face of absolute strength, all coercion was meaningless.

If Asule and others were foolish enough to use the Barbarian God Shield fragment to coerce him, then the Nanshan Tribe would no longer be necessary.

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Asule agreed immediately without hesitation.

He remembered clearly that the leader, Atai'er, once said that the mysterious fragment was very enigmatic, but they had never found a way to use it. Facing such a useless treasure, it would be better to give it away in exchange for something beneficial.

This was Asule’s thought.

In the Nanshan Tribe's main tent.

Asule excitedly went to see Atai'er and recounted the scheme with Qin Wang.

Atai'er was speechless after listening.

"You agreed just like that?"

Atai'er looked at Asule with some frustration.

"Couldn't I agree? Did the leader find out the secret of that fragment?"

Asule asked in confusion.

Atai'er sighed.

This kid was indeed full of muscle.

Well, well, only someone so simple and persistent could have a chance of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage in a few decades.

However...

It’s just right to use this mysterious fragment to gain Qin Tie Dan’s trust and lead him to Tian Zhou Mountain.

Thinking of this, Atai'er couldn’t help but smile.

Qin Wang looked at the Barbarian God Shield fragment in his hand and then took out all the fragments.

Click!

With a soft sound, the nine fragments of the Barbarian God Shield came together.

Qin Wang checked the time and decided to test the current defensive power of the Barbarian God Shield.

Soon.

Qin Wang arrived at a forest a hundred miles away from the Nanshan Tribe.

The place was deserted.

Qin Wang took out the Barbarian God Shield and attacked it with the Qingyou Sword.

The Qingyou Sword formed a long snake formation and struck the Barbarian God Shield.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!...

After twelve strikes, the Qingyou Sword did not break through the Barbarian God Shield’s defense.

It seemed that the Barbarian God Shield could now block an all-out attack from someone at the early Golden Core stage.

However...

The exact limit of the Barbarian God Shield remained unknown.

Qin Wang summoned the Five Ghosts and had them attack the Barbarian God Shield.

One of the ghosts first struck the Barbarian God Shield with peak Golden Core strength.

Boom!

The Barbarian God Shield shook violently but did not shatter.

Then, the ghost used Nascent Soul early-stage strength to strike the Barbarian God Shield.

Boom!!!!!!

The violent shockwave spread out, and the ground was blasted into a large crater.

At this moment, the Barbarian God Shield finally couldn’t withstand the impact, cracking in the middle and turning into nine fragments.

However, with a movement of Qin Wang’s divine sense, the nine fragments instantly reassembled into the Barbarian God Shield, as if it had never been broken.

It appeared that the Barbarian God Shield could not only withstand the full-force attack from a Nascent Soul early-stage practitioner but that Qin Wang’s current cultivation level could only manifest such defensive power.

It was enough.

Qin Wang was quite satisfied.

He put away the Barbarian God Shield, the Qingyou Sword, and the Five Ghosts, and flew back to the Nanshan Tribe.

In the central square of the Nanshan Tribe.

Many people were gathered there.

Xiao Chunan, surrounded by attendants, was chatting and laughing with a woman beside him.

The woman wore a light pink gauze dress, moving gracefully like a celestial being, with a charming and refined demeanor. She was Huyan Xianyun, the treasured gem of the Huyan family.

The Huyan family had a thousand-year history and had several Transformation Realm ancestors stationed in the clan.

Among the many Central Continent cultivators present, only Xiao Chunan was qualified to converse with Huyan Xianyun as an equal.

Xiao Chunan looked at the breathtaking beauty beside him, his heart filled with agitation.

Such a stunning beauty made him want to possess her.

Unfortunately, Huyan Xianyun was always courteous and gentle, friendly yet respectful, making it impossible for Xiao Chunan to cross any boundaries.

Even though Xiao Chunan had pursued her for years, he had never even held her hand.

"Why haven't we activated the formation to head to Tian Zhou Mountain yet?"

"Yes, exactly."

"Why are we waiting for that useless person?"

The Central Continent cultivators voiced their impatience.

"We’re waiting for everyone to arrive. Why the rush?"

Asule rolled his eyes, speaking irritably.

He was also somewhat anxious, fearing that Qin Wang might take the mysterious fragment and run away.

If Qin Wang did run, Asule would have to kneel before the leader and bear the blame.

At that moment, a tremor in the surrounding spiritual energy signaled something unusual.

It seemed there was a battle happening somewhere far away?

The Nascent Soul elder behind Xiao Chunan furrowed his brows.

"It's a Nascent Soul strong practitioner."

The elder said solemnly.

Xiao Chunan raised an eyebrow.

"Elder Wang, would you go investigate?"

Xiao Chunan pondered for a moment before asking.

"No. If the other party is trying to mislead us and the target is the young master, that would be a serious problem."

Elder Wang firmly declined.

Xiao Chunan nodded slightly and looked at Huyan Xianyun beside him.

"Xianyun, don’t worry. With Elder Wang here, unless a Transformation Realm true monarch intervenes, we will definitely be safe."

Xiao Chunan said with a smile.

"Thank you, Xiao Gege."

Huyan Xianyun smiled brightly, her charm fully on display.

Xiao Chunan’s heart fluttered.

After a while, a figure flew from afar and landed in the square.

It was Qin Wang.

Seeing Qin Wang arrive, Asule finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Alright, everyone is here. Let’s prepare to activate the formation."

Asule announced loudly.

Central Continent cultivators quickly understood the situation.

"So, it turns out we were waiting for Qin Tie Dan."

"Qin Tie Dan, you’re so impressive, making us wait for you alone."

"If you don’t want to enter the Purple Qi Space, just say so. Don’t waste everyone’s time."

"You’ve wasted so much of everyone’s time; what should be done about it?"

The Central Continent cultivators spoke up.

The Condensed Dan Purple Qi of Tian Zhou Mountain appeared once every ten thousand years. When a large amount of Purple Qi gathered, it formed the Purple Qi Space. As long as a Foundation Establishment cultivator entered, they could absorb the Condensed Dan Purple Qi, which might give them a chance to refine a Golden Core.

Of course, if their cultivation was insufficient, absorbing the Condensed Dan Purple Qi could be very difficult.

For this reason, only those in the fake Dan realm and above would enter the Purple Qi Space.

To enter, each person had to pay ten million spirit stones to the Nanshan Tribe to qualify.

For these young masters of the Central Continent, ten million spirit stones were nothing.

As long as they could refine the Golden Core, they could afford even a hundred million spirit stones.

To enter the Purple Qi Space, one had to use the Nanshan Tribe’s teleportation array.

Others had searched Tian Zhou Mountain but could not find the Purple Qi Space’s location, so they had no choice but to come to the Nanshan Tribe, pay the spirit stones, and enter.

Moreover, the Purple Qi Space opened every five days, each time for twelve hours, and it would open a total of six times.

After six openings, the Purple Qi Space would disappear and would not open again for another ten thousand years.

These were the messages passed down from the Nanshan Tribe, and no one could verify them.

But they had been confirmed three times.

Now was the fourth opening.

When Asule activated the teleportation array, an arched door appeared.

Looking through the door, a colorful vortex was visible, with nothing else discernible.

"Only cultivators below the Golden Core stage can enter. Please proceed."

Asule said blandly.

Everyone prepared to enter.

At this moment, Xiao Chunan suddenly stopped everyone and looked at Qin Wang.

"If I’m not mistaken, Brother Tie Dan, you can summon Nascent Soul ghost cultivators, right?"

Xiao Chunan stared intently at Qin Wang.

"Yes, and so?"

Qin Wang countered.

"We are all below the Golden Core stage. If Brother Tie Dan summons Nascent Soul ghost cultivators in the Purple Qi Space, won’t we all be doomed?"

Xiao Chunan said slowly.

Upon hearing this, everyone realized the potential danger.

Indeed!

Only Golden Core and lower cultivators could enter the Purple Qi Space. If Qin Wang summoned Nascent Soul ghost cultivators inside, it would be a massacre, endangering everyone’s lives. It was extremely dangerous.

"This won’t happen."

A voice interjected.

Everyone turned to see that it was Atai'er, the leader of the Nanshan Tribe.

"In the Purple Qi Space, all treasures and powers above the Foundation Establishment stage will have their cultivation restricted. Even if he summons Nascent Soul ghost cultivators, they will be forcibly limited to the Foundation Establishment peak, or fake Dan realm. Didn’t Golden Core cultivators face similar restrictions before?"

Atai'er spoke slowly.

Everyone nodded in agreement. Indeed.

After entering the Purple Qi Space, even Golden Core cultivators had their powers restricted to the fake Dan realm, and their overall strength was reduced significantly.

This made the Purple Qi Space very dangerous for Golden Core cultivators.

For this reason, Elder Wang had never entered the Purple Qi Space.

Once inside, he would only have the strength of the fake Dan realm. If attacked by Foundation Establishment cultivators, he might find himself in a dire situation.

Better safe than sorry.

For this reason, Elder Wang had never entered the Purple Qi Space.
