Translator: Silavin In this era, Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones had only one use – as self-destructive bombs. In Qin Yichen’s room, there were still over half a kilogram of Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones remaining, which naturally terrified Zhao Ritian. Zhao Ritian was not afraid of anything except those who did not value their lives! After all, with the Zhao Family as his powerful backing, even if he punched a hole in the sky of the Northern Region, the Zhao Family would cover for him. “Who wants to perish with you!?” Qin Yichen’s lips twitched, black lines appearing on his forehead. After peering around outside for a long while, Zhao Ritian finally came to the doorway, still nervously glancing at the box of Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones. He soon witnessed a scene he would never forget in his life. Qin Yichen was actually refining Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones! “What a monster…” Zhao Ritian’s mouth could not close anymore, his eyes wider than a cow’s. This was absolutely revolutionary. After all, Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones were absolutely dangerous items that ordinary people would not dare to touch, yet Qin Yichen was actually refining them. “You’re making a fuss over nothing.” Qin Yichen rolled his eyes, ignoring him. “Damn…” Zhao Ritian did not want to argue with him. He carefully picked up a piece of waste stone that had been drained of energy. With some force, the waste stone crumbled to powder. “Could these all be fake Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones?” After being stunned for a moment, Zhao Ritian reached out to touch a Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stone in the black wooden box, and he was immediately shocked numb by its violent energy. At this moment, his feelings were indescribable. What he was certain of was that now he looked at Qin Yichen the same way others used to look at him. “You’re practising Martial Arts?” After Qin Yichen finished refining the small piece of Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stone in his hand, Zhao Ritian finally asked. He did not understand why Qin Yichen, who had such an amazing talent in the Dao of Alchemy, would waste time on the Dao of Martial Arts!? “Is there something wrong with that?” Qin Yichen could not be bothered to explain to him. However, he was also surprised by Zhao Ritian’s ability to analyse everything, and break down everything. Although the Alchemy Technique he had taught was not anything advanced, it would normally take several months if not years for most people to master. Yet Zhao Ritian had mastered it in just a few days, showing how high his talent was. “Could it be that your talent is better than mine because of your Martial Arts cultivation…” Zhao Ritian stroked his chin, looking at the box of Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones, his eyes revealing a thoughtful expression. “If you want to die, feel free to try.” Qin Yichen grimly warned, preventing him from attempting suicide or self-harm. He did not want this future Alchemy obsessive pervert to perish because of him. “Siii… you really are a monster.” Thinking of the violent energy he had just touched, Zhao Ritian shuddered, retreating from his fantasy. “Do you have any better Alchemy Techniques…” He stretched his face towards Qin Yichen. “Of course.” Qin Yichen’s single word ignited his passion. Thoughts of Martial Arts were immediately forgotten. “One technique for one kilogramn of Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones!” Where in the world would there be a free lunch? “That is just plain extortion!” Zhao Ritian’s eyes bulged. That was worth a million silver coins. “Take it or leave it.” Qin Yichen acted as if he was about to chase him away. He figured that when he needed money, teaching some Alchemy Techniques might get him more in return. “Is it more advanced than the previous one?” Zhao Ritian gritted his teeth, still unable to let it go. After all, he had already tasted the benefits. After practising the Alchemy Technique Qin Yichen had given him, he finally understood why Qin Yichen could refine Pills so quickly, and why his own so-called Alchemy Technique had been practically worthless in comparison. Although Qin Yichen did not think much of it, that Technique was actually a product of several thousand years in the future. It was naturally far more advanced than what Zhao Ritian was practising. The deal was naturally settled. With these two kilograms of Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones, Qin Yichen believed breaking through to the Spirit Realm would not be a problem. The Zhao Family truly lived up to its name – in just half a day, Zhao Ritian brought the Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones and exchanged them for an Alchemy Technique. Whoosh!… Exhaling a long breath, Qin Yichen opened his eyes, electricity flickering in them. Third level Peak Martial Grandmaster Realm! Just as he was about to stand up, he discovered an old man crouching in front of him, examining him face to face. This old man looked somewhat dishevelled, with oil still on his beard, though his complexion was ruddy and he seemed energetic. However, he showed no trace of energy or bearing, looking just like an ordinary old man. But just this seemingly ordinary old man, at first glance, made Qin Yichen break out in a cold sweat. Because in his eyes, there should not have been anyone there, yet this old man was undeniably present. [An expert! An absolute expert!] Exactly how powerful he was, Qin Yichen could not tell. All he knew was that this old man was definitely above the Spirit Realm. Why such an expert would silently appear in his residence, Qin Yichen also could not figure it out no matter how hard he thought. “Respected Elder…” “Are you Qin Yichen?” As he was speaking, the old man asked first. “Well…” Qin Yichen did not know how to respond. His mind raced, wondering if the An Family or HuyuAn Family wanted to eliminate him. But as far as he knew, neither Family should have an expert of this level. “Just answer yes or no.” The old man showed some impatience. “Yes.” After much hesitation, Qin Yichen nodded. The old man looked him up and down once again, nodding and shaking his head while muttering something unintelligible. “Lightning Martial Soul, that’s not right… could it be someone else?” In the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty, there were only two outstanding figures – one was Du Junxiong, who was already dead, and the other was this youth before him. If neither was the one, where had the Soul Martial Artist who awakened the Dragon Martial Soul gone to!? Fate was so mysterious – just because Qin Yichen was absorbing Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stone energy, plus the Lightning Lion Beast Soul in his Dantian, the old man directly ruled him out. The old man seemed somewhat disappointed and turned into blue smoke, vanishing without a trace. However, he had not left the Central Province. He was just waiting for the Eight Millennial Families to find that person, so he could snatch him away first. This time, he must win against that old thing! Phew… Only after confirming he had left did Qin Yichen breathe a sigh of relief, his eyes full of confusion. He did not understand why that strange expert had sought him out. However, he had no time to dwell on this. News came from the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty that Lin Miaohan… had disappeared!
