Chapter 340: Chapter 310: Heading to the Immortal Ruins! (4000 words)_2

However, Qin Zheng didn’t mind; after entering the Immortal Ruins, what he sought was the "opportunity," and being alone made it even more relaxed and casual.

Upon seeing this, a look of joy immediately appeared on Gu Xuanji’s face.

Under the intentional protection of several Top Heavenly Immortals, Qin Zheng’s name had not been widely spread.

But as a top talent of the Human race who could compete with minor Monster Gods, he was able to learn some secret news.

This person before him was a formidable being who, with the body of a Human Immortal, had killed no less than three Celestial Immortals!

He was even considered by several Top Heavenly Immortals to be the second after the Peerless Immortal Sword who could ascend above the Celestial Immortals!

With such a powerhouse here and alone, of course, he wouldn’t let the opportunity slip by.

Thus, he immediately said quickly, "The Immortal Ruins are vast and boundless, and besides us, there are members of the Demon race entering it!"

"Demon Emperor Palace, Wancheng Demon Nation, Dragon Palace, Phoenix Nest, Immortal Mountain! The top talents from their ranks will all enter the Immortal Ruins!"

"How about joining us, Brother Qin, for mutual support?"

The last phrase elevated the address from Mr. Qin to Brother Qin directly.

The intention to close the distance was already clear without any words.

Seeing this, the people behind Gu Xuanji also became curious at this moment.

As a top talent of the Human race, Gu Xuanji was gentle, but he had a strong sense of pride.

The fact that he invited someone himself must mean that the person was extraordinary.

But...

Feeling the Immortal Qi of Qin Zheng made them a bit confused.

Even if a Human Immortal was extraordinary, what role could he really play?

And given that the Immortal Ruins were a supreme treasure land one could enter only once in a lifetime, wasn’t it a bit childish to enter without properly honing their realms, waiting to ascend to Earth or Celestial Immortal before entering?

Or was it just that Gu Xuanji invited the other party because he had a past connection and wanted to protect him somewhat?

Various thoughts emerged in their minds.

Of course, these thoughts appeared only in their minds and were not shown outwardly.

Qin Zheng, looking at the sincere and earnest Gu Xuanji before him, thought for a moment and then nodded, "It is possible."

He had been in the Lingxu Realm for a short time and didn’t quite understand the situation with the Demon race.

And not all forces within the Demon race were hostile toward the Human race; there were also the neutral powers like Dragon Palace, Phoenix Nest, and Immortal Mountain.

Having a teammate who was familiar with the ins and outs and whose strength was also decent could make things more convenient and worry-free.

In time, which demons could be killed and which could not would be clear from someone informing him.

Hearing Qin Zheng agree, an almost overflowing smile appeared on Gu Xuanji’s face at that moment.

He immediately turned to the other top talents behind him and began, "Let me introduce everyone, this is..."

At this point, he stumbled a bit, pausing and looking toward Qin Zheng.

"Human King Palace, Qin Zheng."

Qin Zheng nodded.

"Right! Human King Palace, Qin Zheng!"

Gu Xuanji reiterated it to the other top talents.

As he finished speaking,

the other top talents also reacted.

"Glazed Immortal Sect, Qin Yue."

"Bitter Cold Sect, Zhao Qingqian."

"Liu Yuzhai Sect, Li Cangqiu"

...

After these three introduced themselves, the remaining two remained silent and did not speak.

Qin Zheng remained expressionless, but Gu Xuanji’s brows were slightly furrowed as he asked, "What does this mean, the two of you?"

The two, a man and a woman,

faced Gu Xuanji’s question and looked at each other before immediately responding, "Brother Xuanji, the Immortal Ruins concern our future path, and we cannot afford any mistake."

"Mr. Qin might be exceptionally talented, or he may have past relations with you, but his strength at Human Immortal Rank could indeed drag us down."

"If Brother Xuanji insists on having Mr. Qin join us, we will have no choice but to opt out."

After the two spoke, the faces of the other three slightly changed.

These words, seeming to express a willingness to withdraw, were actually pressing Gu Xuanji!

The message was clear: if they were to let Qin Zheng, who was only at the Human Immortal Realm, join, then they would exit.

And the meaning of these words also was not devoid of the intent to sway the others.

After the two had spoken, Gu Xuanji chuckled and asked, "Have you thought this through?"

Having caught the eye of Gu Xuanji, these two were certainly not lacking in strength, but compared to Qin Zheng, they were worlds apart.

There was no need to even think about making a choice.

As Gu Xuanji’s words were spoken, the complexions of the two men changed immediately, yet they could only say solemnly, "We wish you all the best in finding your fortunes in the Immortal Ruins!"

Then, turning to the other three, he said, "The three of you should think carefully!"

After speaking, they turned and walked away, as if afraid that if they waited another moment, Gu Xuanji would teach them a lesson.

Gu Xuanji was not annoyed; instead, he turned his head to look at the other three and said with a smile, "What do you three think? Stay, or..."

The three of them looked at each other, pondered for a few moments, and then two of them apologized, "Brother Xuanji, we are sorry."

After speaking, they also turned and left.

Only Qin Zheng, Gu Xuanji, and Zhao Qingqian of the Bitter Cold Sect were left.

"Brother Qingqian, aren’t you leaving?"

Gu Xuanji curiously asked.

Zhao Qingqian shook his head and said, "I am just an ordinary person with average talent. I have been lucky to reach this point."

"But I am very clear that someone who Brother Xuanji personally invites and is so happy about must not be an ordinary individual."

"Once we enter the Immortal Ruins, I shall rely on you two to lend a hand!"

After speaking, Zhao Qingqian clasped his hands together and bowed toward Qin Zheng and Gu Xuanji.

Clearly an Earth Immortal expert, yet in front of Qin Zheng, he exhibited great humility, as if facing a senior.

Gu Xuanji laughed heartily, then stepped forward to clap Zhao Qingqian on the shoulder, saying, "Good!"

Qin Zheng returned the bow with clasped hands.

This man, whether in his self-awareness or his perception of others, was exceptionally clear, unaffected by any extraneous thoughts.

This too was a remarkable talent!

Thus, the three formed a team and briefly exchanged words on the treasure ship. During this time, Qin Zheng deepened his understanding of the Demon race from their conversation.

The Demon race had Ten Great Demon Gods, with the Demon Emperor Palace claiming seven of them, while the other three had established other powers.

The Dragon Palace, Phoenix Nest, and Immortal Mountain!

Just by hearing the names of the first two, one could guess their species, while the last, Immortal Mountain, represented the Qilin Clan!

Divine Dragon, Phoenix, Qilin!

All of them were akin to mythical beasts from legends.

No wonder these three powers did not consider themselves part of the Demon race.

However, although these three were neutral, their attitude towards the Human race could not exactly be described as favorable.

They seemed to consider themselves of noble blood, above mingling with the Human race or Demon race.

So, according to Gu Xuanji’s words, it would be best to avoid conflict with these three powers as much as possible.

But if conflict were unavoidable, they must make a lethal move without letting them know who was responsible!

Hearing this, Qin Zheng nodded slightly, feeling somewhat more at ease.

When it came to fighting the Demon race, he had always been ruthless, which very much suited the requirements.

Thus, after a brief conversation, the three began meditating and cultivating.

Time slowly passed.

Boom!

It was not until the hull suddenly trembled and powerful auras at the Celestial Immortal Rank burst forth unabashedly.

The three stood up.

In front of the treasure ship, a portal emitting white light appeared.

"We’ve arrived."

Gu Xuanji’s expression grew serious.

Qin Zheng’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Then the ship passed through the portal, and a blinding light shot into everyone’s eyes.

Whoosh!

Bright sunlight came pouring down.

Mixed with the smell of the sea, the fishy breeze assailed them.

After passing through the boundless void, they arrived at a deep blue ocean as far as the eye could see!

At the moment, on this vast ocean, there were other Void Crossing Treasure Ships, from which a very dense demonic energy emanated!

And just as the Human race’s treasure ship emerged from the void.

A huge hand suddenly broke through the surface of the sea, enveloped in thick demonic energy, as if tearing through the heavens and earth, aimed at the Human race treasure ship!
