Asura Mad Emperor

```

With Zitong dead and numerous cultivators frightened away by Qinchuan, no one else vied with Qinghui Holy Maiden for the ancient earth element. She effortlessly subdued the Evil Heart Gu sand.

Afterward, Qinghui Holy Maiden approached with a graceful walk, her jade-like steps giving off a glowing elegance, a mysterious brilliance twinkling in her eyes.

"I knew you wouldn't die so easily," she said.

"Through the Nine Heavens and ten lands, I've survived countless dangers; a mere ancient array isn't enough to kill me," Qinchuan replied with confidence.

"This is the Heartbreak Holy Underworld Fruit that Yue Chan entrusted me to find for you. Now that I've delivered it to you, I've fulfilled that girl's earnest request," she said.

A dark spirit fruit flew towards him from her hand.

"Thank you!" Qinchuan said, nodding with his fist clasped in gratitude.

The Heartbreak Holy Underworld Fruit was a key ingredient for awakening his Innate Qi. His thanks was directed as much to Qinghui Holy Maiden as it was to Yue Chan.

Qinghui Holy Maiden continued, "This ancient Gu sand is extremely profound, and I need some time to integrate with it. I'll take my leave first!"

"Take care," Qinchuan said, watching Qinghui Holy Maiden leave.

He had no prior dealings with Qinghui Holy Maiden, yet she had entered the Ancient Realm and searched for the Heartbreak Holy Underworld Fruit on behalf of Yue Chan. He noted all of this in his heart.

"Young Master Qin, should you find yourself free, I hope you can personally make a trip to the Underworld," came the ethereal voice of Qinghui Holy Maiden from the distance.

She didn't say it outright.

But Qinchuan understood. With no news of Yue Chan in the Underworld for eighty thousand years, she hoped he would enter the Underworld to find Yue Chan.

Just from the fact that she descended to the Lower Realm on a mere word from Yue Chan to seek Heavenly Treasures Materials for someone unrelated to her revealed the unusual nature of their relationship and her deep concern for Yue Chan.

"Of course, if Yue Chan is still alive, I will surely bring her back safe and sound," he said loudly.

Yue Chan had fallen into the Underworld while searching for Heavenly Treasures Materials for him; naturally, Qinchuan would investigate.

However, he was currently powerless to do so.

The Underworld, a territory established in the ancient times outside the Divine Wilderness Continent.

After the Ghost Race took over the Underworld, the Heavenly Dao laid down a barrier of laws, sealing the Ghost Race within the Underworld.

Although the barrier prevents the power of the Ghost Race's experts, it doesn't pose much of an obstacle to the Human Race. With certain methods, one can still enter.

Yet even if the barrier isn't strong, it's still impassable to those who aren't at the Divine Emperor Realm.

This was why Qinghui Holy Maiden couldn't enter the Underworld herself. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but because she hadn't yet achieved the Divine Emperor status and couldn't open the pathway to the Underworld.

As for Qinchuan, having undergone reincarnation, he was currently only at Great Saint cultivation level, still some distance away from reaching the Divine Emperor.

"You two, come here!"

It wasn't until after Qinghui Holy Maiden had left that Qinchuan turned to Er Rengu and Feng Hongyi, speaking coldly.

"Young Master... please have mercy..."

As Ji Huo'er and the others had been following Qinchuan all along, Er Rengu and Feng Hongyi were well aware of this.

Now that the two of them were Qinchuan's servants, they should always consider their master's interests.

Ji Huo'er and the others were attacked, and though Er Rengu and Feng Hongyi didn't participate, they simply watched as their comrades faced danger without lifting a finger, which greatly angered him.

Er Rengu and Feng Hongyi were also trembling with fear, knowing why Qinchuan was angry.

Yet at that moment, they indeed were concerned for their own lives, not daring to contend against dozens or even hundreds of strong opponents for the sake of Ji Huo'er and the others.

Knowing they were at fault, they could only keep kowtowing, begging for mercy.

"Big brother, let it go," Ji Huo'er said, still refining the Divine Pill. Seeing Qinchuan's anger, she spoke softly, trying to calm him.

```

Qinchuan was enraged, and it was truly terrifying; all of those involved in the siege against the three were executed, and she felt greatly relieved.

"This time I will spare the two of you, slaves should have the awareness of slaves. You two must realize that killing you is merely a thought away for me," Qinchuan said.

As Qinchuan's thoughts moved, the two felt as if their souls were being scorched by fierce fire and countless steel needles pierced them all at once, causing immense pain.

"We dare not do it again!" the two howled in agony, begging for mercy and promising to be loyal in everything hereafter. Only then did Qinchuan let them go.

"If there is even the slightest dereliction of duty, you will die!" Qinchuan commanded coldly, making them sweat profusely and nod continually in agreement.

Afterward, with a mere thought, Qinchuan collected the fallen ancient exotic elements from Bai Yunran's and Jiang Bing's bodies.

Soon, Ji Huo'er and Li Kaitian, among others, completely refined the Divine Pill, and their injuries were healed as before.

"Kaitian, this Flowing Spirit Holy Gold suits you; you may try to subdue it," Qinchuan suggested.

Qinchuan sent a ball of energy, flickering with strange golden light, flying towards Li Kaitian.

Li Kaitian was refining and subduing the Flowing Spirit Holy Gold at that place, while Ji Huo'er was collecting the Heavenly Treasure Materials dropped by many cultivators in the arena.

"Hmph, that's for hitting me!" Ji Huo'er muttered resentfully while she searched the ground for dropped storage magical artifacts, addressing the corpses that lay scattered in disarray.

Clearly, she was somewhat indignant towards these people.

In this arena, most of those who died were either Great Emperors or Divine Envoys, and the treasures on their bodies were all extremely precious.

Soon, Ji Huo'er's resentment gradually faded as she discovered the joys of treasure hunting, diving wholeheartedly into the search for Heavenly Treasure Materials.

At this time, Qinchuan looked towards the summit of the Divine Peak and noticed that the Wu Xing Fairy had left without him knowing when.

"This guy, didn't she say she would become my enemy if she saw me again? How did she just leave on her own?" Qinchuan shrugged, thinking to himself.

By the time everything had settled down and Qinchuan's group was preparing to leave, a deafening boom suddenly came from afar.

"Boom!"

A wave carrying the aura of death soared into the sky, blanketing half of the heavens. Within the ghostly Qi, there was a surge of murderous intent and danger.

"What's happening now?"

Ji Huo'er was searching the dead for storage magical artifacts and was startled by the sound. Her little head turned towards the distance, and she asked in a chirping voice.

At that moment, several streaks of rainbow light shot up into the sky from afar, coming rapidly in their direction.

"Aren't those the people who just fled? Why have they come back?"

Ling Xian'er recognized clearly that these rainbow lights belonged to the cultivators who had recently fled from this place.

"They're being hunted by a terrifying existence!"

By this time, Li Kaitian had already taken the Flowing Spirit Holy Gold into his Divine Sense space. He stood up and looked towards the towering black Qi.

"It's the Ghost Race!" Qinchuan stated, looking into the distant sky. With his Innate Pupils, he could see several Ghost Race experts approaching in their direction.

"The Ghost Race?!"

All three were taken aback. Ji Huo'er ceased her search and came over.

"Ye Yu from the Spirit Dragon Holy Land is already dead, how can there still be Ghost Race here?" Ji Huo'er whispered in curiosity.

They were unaware that tens of Ghost Race experts had already entered this world.

"Right, in the past few days, numerous cultivators have mysteriously died, torn to pieces and leaving behind a disgusting stench at the scene. Could it have been them?" Ling Xian'er suddenly thought of something.

These Ghost Race experts had entered the Ancient Realm, seeking out Human Cultivators and slaughtering them on sight. Many cultivators had already fallen by their hands, and initially, Ji Huo'er and the others hadn't given it much thought.

Now, realizing the Ghost Race had reappeared, they were quick to make the connection.

"It must be them. These people entered the Ancient Realm not long after the rise of the Four Aspects Law," Qinchuan said, nodding.

And as they spoke, the divine lights in the distance had already shot over and arrived in front of this area of Divine Peaks.
