38 Chapter 38: The King of the Bottom_1
"With the cultivation of a Tier 1 Foundation Establishment, he can display a strength comparable to Tier 5 Foundation Establishment. With the help of the sword array, he can even briefly contend with those at the Tier 6 or 7 Foundation Establishment. Truly deserving of the legendary Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment." •
"Although his spiritual root is somewhat lacking, he is still worth cultivating. However, he is too indulgent in worldly desires."
Liu Mengxian thought quietly.
After this Sect's Grand Competition, she would have to have a proper talk with Qin Changqing.
She couldn't let such a rare Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment talent go to waste!
After the battle for the Water Swordgrass had ended, Qin Changqing found a cave for Qin Lingshuang to absorb the Swordgrass without interruption.
Qin Lingshuang had been cultivating her Autumn Rain Sword Skill for some time. If this Swordgrass could help her reach perfect mastery, she would have more than enough power to enter the top thirty of the competition.
Even the top ten might not be out of reach.
No wonder, the sword skill was just that amazing.
Above the sword skill was the Sword Intent. Qin Changqing had never seen Sword Intent, but he was sure it was even better.
As for what was above the Sword Intent, that was a realm he could not touch.
Qin Lingshuang didn't bother being polite with Qin Changqing, and immediately began her seclusion after receiving the Swordgrass.
With less than half a month left before the end of the Sect's Grand Competition, she really needed to work hard.
Her seclusion lasted for more than ten days.
During these ten days, the three of them took turns guarding her, while the others hunted nearby, roasted fish, cooked chicken, and grilled rabbit.
If they encountered demonic beasts, they would just kill them. They were incredibly leisurely.
As everyone was desperately fighting for points, they were playing wilderness survival here.
Such scene left the watching sect elders and disciples speechless.
But, from another perspective, it was quite enviable.
Especially for the male disciples in the sect, their eyes turned green with envy.
"Damn, I wish I could spend my days like that too."
"No wonder it's Brother Qin; he easily achieves what we dare not even dream of."
"I feel that if the occasion was fitting, Brother Qin could have led them in dual cultivation."
"I'm more concerned about Qin Lingshuang's situation after absorbing the Swordgrass. Tsk tsk~, Swordgrass is a fifth-order medicinal herb, hard to come by. I didn't expect the Tianheng Secret Realm to actually have it."
"I heard that the Tianheng Secret Realm used to be the legacy land of a sword cultivator."
"No wonder, that makes sense."
The disciples watching the competition sighed enviously.
Some people thought that Qin Changqing was incredible.
But, at the same time, there were also people who thought his behavior was simply tarnishing the sect's reputation, and that he was desecrating the sacred Sect's Grand Competition.
The participating disciples didn't even think about striving for ranking, and instead wasted their days away?
However, this argument was soon countered by others.
Are your eyes blind, huh?
Didn't you see what kind of monsters are currently on the leaderboard? Even if you struggled for ranking, could you win against them?
As the end of the competition drew near, the situation began to heat up rapidly.
The powerful hunted demonic beasts, accumulating points far ahead of the rest.
Those who lagged behind had to challenge others if they wanted to catch up.
Although it was not impossible for someone weaker to gain high points by defeating even weaker opponents, this possibility vanished after the top-ranked disciples launched large-scale 'hunts.
In just a few days, Li Qingsu, who ranked first, rapidly broke through the 100,000-point mark by defeating other disciples, accumulating a total of 150,000 points.
Meanwhile, the points of those ranked below began to skyrocket as well.
It was as if they had all agreed not to actively engage each other in battle.
And, this situation made those who wanted to take advantage of any loopholes completely lose hope.
Four days before the end of the competition.
Qin Lingshuang successfully came out of seclusion."Senior Brother." She stepped out of the cave and saw Qin Changqing studying the sword array not far away.
After the previous three swords exploded, Qin Changqing borrowed three more swords from a few passing junior brothers a few days ago to continue studying the Heaven and Earth Trinity Sword Array. 2
Ever since using the power of the sword array to force the three of them back, Qin Changqing had fallen in love with it completely.
If he could fully master the Trinity Sword Array, he would be able to achieve the effect of a single blade cutting the throat and a hundred-step flying sword.
"Out of seclusion?"
Qin Changqing looked at Qin Lingshuang, "How is it?"
Qin Lingshuang clasped her hands and said, "Thanks to you, Senior Brother, I have completed my Autumn Rain Sword Skill after this seclusion, and my cultivation has reached Tier 8 Foundation Establishment."
Qin Changqing smiled, "That's good. It wasn't a waste of our efforts."
On the side, Zhao Xiaoxiao raised her hand and said, "Actually, I just shouted twice."
"Those two shouts were the most crucial."
"Hehe~ I didn't expect those senior brothers and sisters to be so anxious."
"It's human nature. Everyone was in a state of uncertainty at that time, and it's inevitable that they would make wrong judgments. top update place If we had acted later, when they had seen the situation clearly, it would be difficult to create chaos."
"Mhm, Brother Qin, you're so smart; you know everything." Zhao Xiaoxiao admired her senior brother more and more.
"Thank you both for your help."
Qin Lingshuang clasped her hands again in gratitude to Zhao Xiaoxiao and Murong Xue.
The two girls smiled in response.
"Sister Lingshuang, don't celebrate too early. During your seclusion, the others haven't been idle. Just look at the ranking points." said Qin Changqing.
Qin Lingshuang checked.
She found that there were now fewer than two hundred people left in the entire Tianheng Secret Realm.
And she had been squeezed down to 153rd place.
As for the trio of Qin Changqing, they were at the bottom.
"You should be clear on what to do next, Junior Sister, right?" Qin Changqing smiled, "Our Xuanyi Peak is counting on you. Bai junior brother is hovering around the 100th place, and I'm afraid it's a bit uncertain. As for you, strive for the top ten in the next five days, just to bring some glory to our master."
Qin Lingshuang whispered, "Senior Brother, don't worry. I will definitely do it."
Before her seclusion, she could already reach the top fifty.
Now that her sword skill had become complete and she had broken through to Tier 8 Foundation Establishment, it was not impossible to fight for the top ten.
"Alright, let's hurry up then."
"Goodbye, Senior Brother."
Qin Lingshuang didn't linger and directly turned her flying sword towards the depths of the secret realm.
After she left, Zhao Xiaoxiao asked with puzzlement, "Brother Qin, why didn't you give her our points? With only five days left, it's too hard to kill for the top ten."
Qin Changqing shook his head, "Firstly, deliberately losing points is not allowed. Secondly, I believe in Senior Sister Lingshuang, and she wouldn't accept this kind of gift."
Murong Xue also said, "Senior Sister Lingshuang is like a natural sword cultivator, and her temperament is like that. Her sword is the same."
Qin Changqing smiled faintly, "Who could say otherwise? But everyone has their own fate, so let's not worry about her for now. Today we're having stir-fried jade rabbit."
As expected, Qin Lingshuang didn't disappoint Qin Changqing.
Just half a day after they parted, she broke into the top hundred and was heading straight for the top fifty.
As for Qin Changqing and the other two, they enjoyed a delicious meal of stir-fried jade rabbit before ascending to the sky and choosing to leave the secret realm.
There were two reasons for doing this.
Firstly, there was no point in staying in the realm any longer since the big final battle was about to begin.
Secondly, Qin Changqing was worried that if they ran into other experts and were killed, those points would be given away for free.
So it was better to leave on their own.
Oh, right, there was another reason: Qin Changqing missed his wives.
Anyway, their purpose for coming here had been achieved.
Alright, let me set my course, you guys can take your time to fight it out.
When Qin Changqing appeared in the square, he immediately attracted the attention of a large portion of the people around him.
