Peerless Emperor

Chapter 8: Meeting with Holy Son Qin Hao

Chapter 8: Meeting with Holy Son Qin Hao

Mar 08, 2024

"Duan Changsheng, elders, and disciples of the Xuantian Sect, follow me to pay respects to Saint Qin Hao!"

Duan Changsheng took a deep breath and then spoke loudly.

He took the lead in bowing and saluted Qin Hao.

This salute was because Qin Hao saved the Xuantian Sect and preserved its heritage.

"We pay respects to Saint Qin Hao!"

"..."

All the elders and disciples of the Xuantian Sect bowed down in reverence to Qin Hao, their voices resonating and echoing through the Xuantian Mountain, stirring the heavens and the earth.

Even those elders and disciples who had once harbored doubts or spoken ill of Qin Hao now wore expressions of complex emotions, filled with admiration.

At this moment, the Xuantian Sect surrendered, and no one had any objections to Qin Hao becoming the Saint.

"Please, no need for formalities," Qin Hao said with a faint smile, then raised his hand.

A powerful force surged forth, lifting all the elders and disciples into the air.

Everyone couldn't help but be shocked. Qin Hao's power was truly unfathomable.

Duan Changsheng instructed the elders and disciples to clean up the battlefield, collect spoils of war, and bury the fallen elders and disciples.

Although the Xuantian Sect had survived a great calamity, there was still a somber atmosphere hanging over it.

Duan Changsheng accompanied Qin Hao to the treasure trove.

"Master, I have partially repaired the Xuantian Great Formation and connected the spiritual energy of the surrounding area for thousands of miles. Any cultivator below the Heavenly Realm who trespasses into our Xuantian Sect will be crushed by sword energy!" Qin Hao pointed to the core of the Xuantian Great Formation and said to Duan Changsheng.

"Partially repaired?" Duan Changsheng was somewhat surprised.

"Yes! The Xuantian Great Formation now is not complete yet! With a complete Xuantian Great Formation, even the Supreme of the Undying Realm would have no chance of survival!" Qin Hao said calmly.

In his view, although the Xuantian Great Formation was left behind by the Great Emperor Xuantian before his enlightenment, it was still impressive. A fully restored Xuantian Great Formation would be unbeatable in this realm.

However, due to the damage over millions of years and the lack of materials, Qin Hao could only partially repair it, allowing the Xuantian Great Formation to function autonomously.

"How can we fully repair it?" Duan Changsheng asked eagerly.

The powerhouses of the Undying Realm were the top existences in this realm, each capable of suppressing a side of heaven and earth. If the Xuantian Sect had a complete Xuantian Great Formation, even the martial holy lands would not dare to oppress them, right?

"These are the materials needed for the complete repair of the Xuantian Great Formation. Master, you can have someone collect them. Once my cultivation improves, I will be able to complete the repair!" Qin Hao handed Duan Changsheng a list of materials.

Duan Changsheng was excited at first, but his expression soon froze.

"Crystal Sand of Heaven, Traceless Wood, Void-Capturing Stone... These are all top-grade heavenly treasures, and some of them I've never even heard of. Our Xuantian Sect doesn't have any of them!" Duan Changsheng sighed.

The list Qin Hao gave him contained hundreds of top-grade heavenly treasures, but the Xuantian Sect couldn't afford even one of them, let alone so many.

"No hurry! The current Xuantian Great Formation is enough for self-protection! We can slowly collect the materials as the sect grows stronger!" Qin Hao said calmly. He didn't expect the Xuantian Sect to gather all the materials right away.

"That's the only way!" Duan Changsheng sighed.

Soon, the Grand Elder also arrived at the treasure trove.

But the Grand Elder didn't come alone. He brought with him a black-robed old man who was tied up. The old man's face was filled with anger and fear.

"Elder Seven? What is this, Grand Elder?" Duan Changsheng's eyes flashed with a cold light as he looked at the Grand Elder.

He had a faint suspicion in his heart.

"Master, do you know why the Beast Control Sect learned so quickly about the paralysis of the Xuantian Great Formation?" The Grand Elder sneered.

"Is it him?" Duan Changsheng's eyes flashed with a cold light.

"Yes! Master, this scoundrel, Sun Degong, leaked the news to Nan Batian along with Monk Xi! If it weren't for the Saint, I'm afraid our Xuantian Sect would have been destroyed!" The Grand Elder said coldly, his eyes filled with icy killing intent.

He was naturally hot-tempered, and now that he knew Sun Degong was a traitor to the Xuantian Sect, he couldn't wait to tear him apart and drink his blood.

"Master, spare me! I was also coerced by Nan Batian! Over the years, I have contributed to the Xuantian Sect and suffered as well. Please spare my life, I won't dare again..." When he saw Duan Changsheng, Sun Degong rushed over, tears streaming down his face as he pleaded.

"Master, scum like this, who betray their teachers and destroy their ancestors, cannot be spared. Otherwise, they will harm our Xuantian Sect in the future!" The Grand Elder, who had always detested evil, was even more furious now. In this battle, two of his disciples had died because of Sun Degong's betrayal.

"Enough!" Duan Changsheng interrupted them coldly and then looked at Qin Hao. "What does the Saint think?"

In the Xuantian Sect, the position of the Saint was equivalent to that of the Sect Master, and Qin Hao happened to be present, so out of respect, Duan Changsheng asked for Qin Hao's opinion.

Qin Hao glanced at Sun Degong with a smile.

Once upon a time, this imposing Elder Seven wanted to suppress him with his realm, but in the blink of an eye, he had become a prisoner, his fate in Qin Hao's hands.

Truly, what goes around comes around.

"The elders and disciples of our Xuantian Sect cannot die in vain!" With these words, Qin Hao's smile faded. Behind his amiable demeanor lurked a ruthless intent.

All of a sudden, Sun Degong's face contorted with rage and fear.

He couldn't fathom how, with Qin Hao's realm merely in the Divine Sea Realm, he had been able to incapacitate him with just one move despite his sneak attack being so close.

"Because of you!" Suddenly, Sun Degong, with eyes bloodshot, let out a tiger-like roar.

"It's all because of you, you useless waste! Even if I die, I'll drag you down with me!"

If it weren't for Qin Hao's sudden rise to power, suppressing all directions with an overwhelming force, he would have been celebrating in the Beast Control Sect long ago. How could he have become a prisoner?

The suppressed resentment in his heart finally erupted when faced with Qin Hao.

Boom!

Sun Degong's body surged with bursts of blood-red flames, and his aura skyrocketed madly, shattering the iron chains that bound him, like a primordial beast, directly forcing back the nearby elder and Duan Changsheng. Then, he crazily lunged towards Qin Hao.

"This is the forbidden technique of the Beast Control Sect... Be careful, Your Holiness!" The elder's expression changed drastically as he exclaimed.

It was obvious that Sun Degong was harboring thoughts of mutual destruction, directly displaying the forbidden technique of the Beast Control Sect, burning his own life force, and his cultivation skyrocketed madly, even exuding a hint of the aura of a Heavenly Realm King.

Caught off guard, both the elder and Duan Changsheng were pushed back by him.

"You're seeking death!"

Duan Changsheng, never expecting Sun Degong's desperate move, immediately surged with killing intent. Sword energy rose in his palm, piercing towards Sun Degong's brow.

But at that moment, Sun Degong was already before Qin Hao.

Seeing the ferocity of Sun Degong, whose cultivation had reached the pinnacle, his palm strike was like a violent dragon of fire, instantly reaching Qin Hao's vicinity. Duan Changsheng and the elder felt their hearts leap into their throats.

As the killing intent enveloped him, Qin Hao remained calm, a hint of a cold smile playing on his lips.

In the next moment, his right hand rose, a point in the air, seemingly imbued with the power of heaven and earth.

Hum!

The power of the Xuantian Boundless Array surged forth, emitting dazzling sword energy that traversed the void, directly tearing apart the raging fire dragon. Then, the undiminished momentum pierced into Sun Degong's limbs and profound sea.

Thud!

Sun Degong, who had rushed forward, collapsed directly at Qin Hao's feet, coughing up blood profusely, like a dying dog, devoid of the previous domineering air.

"How... is this possible?" Sun Degong's face was filled with fear and shock.

No matter what, he couldn't understand how, at such a close distance, Qin Hao, only at the Spirit Sea Realm, could neutralize his surprise attack with just one move.

"This is the core of the Xuantian Boundless Array. How dare you attack His Holiness here? Truly seeking death!" Duan Changsheng regained his composure, the worried look on his face disappearing, as he coldly sneered at Sun Degong.

Qin Hao remained silent, his expression calm and indifferent, but countless dazzling sword energies surrounded him, making him seem like a supreme young sovereign overlooking the world, radiating an aura as if the heavens were descending, instilling an irresistible fear in Sun Degong.

"To still not repent even at the brink of death, daring to attack His Holiness, truly despicable!"

The elder strode over angrily, his body emanating a fierce aura akin to that of a dragon and tiger, intending to strike Sun Degong to death. However, he was stopped by Duan Changsheng.

"His Holiness controls the Xuantian Boundless Array. As long as he is within the Xuantian Sect, no one can harm him."

With his composure regained, Duan Changsheng's eyes shimmered with a trace of sharpness.

Qin Hao used the power of the Xuantian Boundless Array to suppress Sun Degong. It wasn't unexpected to him, but what truly impressed him was Qin Hao's calm and composed demeanor when facing the desperate attack of a Spirit Sea Realm cultivator just now. It made even him, the master of a sect, feel inferior.

At the critical moment, Qin Hao displayed calm judgment, decisive action, insight into the opponent's weaknesses, and struck a fatal blow... These were experiences that cultivators accumulated over many years, but seemed to come naturally to Qin Hao.

If this instinct had to be defined, it would be the demeanor of a true powerhouse!

"The future of our Xuantian Sect is promising!"

Subtly, Duan Changsheng realized that Qin Hao might not just be the successor of the Xuantian Great Emperor, but possibly an unparalleled genius in his own right.

"Elder, there must be someone behind the attack of the Beast Control Sect this time. We must remain vigilant."

Saying so, Qin Hao glanced at Sun Degong.

The elder nodded in understanding, simultaneously clasping his fists and saying, "Rest assured, Your Holiness. I will hand him over to the Second Elder for rigorous interrogation."

With that, he picked up Sun Degong, who was like a dying dog, and walked out in large strides.

The Second Elder, Xiao Zhan, was the enforcer of the Xuantian Sect and was best at interrogation. In his hands, Sun Degong would suffer a fate worse than death.
