Chen Guan heard Mei Qingta's voice, but his eyes could no longer see.

Like Zhu Hongzhi, his body resisted Mei Qingta's power, but he couldn't fend off that strange attack.

"Mei Qingta, do you really want to kill me?" Chen Guan closed his eyes, his voice cold.

"Still saying such things now, are you an immature child?" Mei Qingta replied disdainfully, his figure flickering again, giving Chen Guan no time to rest as he punched towards Chen Guan's body.

"You can't kill me, or you will regret it." Chen Guan did not evade, as he couldn't avoid it anyway.

Bang!

Mei Qingta's fist hit Chen Guan once more, sending his body staggering backward by two steps.

Chen Guan felt as though his nerves had lost contact with his body and he could no longer control his actions.

At this moment, Mei Qingta knew that the outcome was settled; Chen Guan had no chance of turning the tables. He stopped, looking at him contemptuously, "Why would I regret it?"

"Actually, I am the descendant of the Emperor Ancestor, the rightful heir of Great Qin, possessing the Emperor Ancestor's astonishing treasure. If that treasure were to be revealed, the combined wealth of the entire Ten Great Families of Divine Land couldn't match a fraction of it. Unfortunately, I've not yet reached the age to inherit the treasure, so I cannot open the vault."

"As long as you spare me and protect me, when I reach the age to open the Emperor Ancestor's treasure and unify Divine Land, it will be the time for your rise to fame and fortune. If you desire wealth, I will make you the richest person in the world. If you wish for power, I will make you an Alien King, standing above millions, second only to me..."

Chen Guan spoke rapidly, afraid that Mei Qingta would also strip away his voice.

Mei Qingta looked at Chen Guan as if he were looking at a lowly insect.

"To stay alive, people really can say anything, but unfortunately, I'm not a fool, and certainly not an idiot. Using such lies to deceive me, you truly underestimate me, Mei Qingta, you deserve death."

"The Emperor Ancestor had divine foresight and ventured into the Celestial Secret Realm himself. How could he not leave his descendants a way out? Don't mislead yourself and lose this chance to ascend to power swiftly. You've worked hard all your life in the Inspectorate, doing dirty and tiring work, still bowing and scraping to those above you. What benefits have you gained? As long as you follow me, on the day I restore the glory of Great Qin, you will be the most powerful person in this Divine Land..."

"Great Qin's glory?" Mei Qingta looked at Chen Guan with pity, feeling that although his abilities were indeed strong, his will and spirit were lacking.

Under the heavy pressure of death, he was babbling nonsense, doing everything he could to survive, yet the things he could think of were immature and laughable.

Not to mention that Chen Guan probably had no Emperor Ancestor's treasure, even if there were a treasure, it could not break the current rigid class system, returning to the era of Great Qin a thousand years ago. Even if the Emperor Ancestor revived, it may not be possible.

"Yes, eight hundred years ago, you were also a part of Great Qin, and you should have been my vassal. Now assist me in growing, and I will appoint you as an Alien King..." Chen Guan continued.

"Chen Guan, oh Chen Guan, stop dreaming. Even if you were the Emperor Ancestor, you're going to die today." Mei Qingta was tired of hearing Chen Guan's nonsense, drawing his sword, he stabbed towards Chen Guan's heart, intending to take his life.

Just as the sword was thrust forward, Mei Qingta suddenly felt as if a shadow flickered before his eyes.

He couldn't see clearly what it was, but the sword in his hand was instantly broken into pieces, and he was blasted away like a cannonball, crashing into the mountain wall, causing a large section of it to crack.

Bang!

Mei Qingta slid down from the mountain wall, spewing a big mouthful of blood, looking down at his chest.

The elf pendant he wore on his chest was now only a necklace, the elf had already crumbled to dust.

Mei Qingta was shocked and angry. This was his greatest life-saving trump card, a level 30 Secret Treasure, the Elf Queen's Protection.

Although it was just a unique Secret Treasure, its function was more valuable than any other treasure.

The protection by the Elf Queen, normally, served no purpose, but when the user faced a life-threatening situation, it could take the fatal damage on behalf of the user.

It replaces rather than resists, so no matter how strong the force, it would be entirely transferred to the Elf Queen's Protection, so Mei Qingta would not be harmed.

Theoretically, with the Elf Queen's Protection shattered, Mei Qingta should not be hurt anymore.

However, whatever that strike was, it not only shattered the level 30 Elf Queen's Protection but just the residual waves from the treasure's destruction blew him away. If that strike had hit his body, even with an Unparalleled Secret Treasure protecting him, he probably wouldn't have escaped death.

Fortunately, fortunately, the Elf Queen's Protection endured the damage for him, rather than resisting it, otherwise both the person and treasure might have been shattered together.

"What was that power?" Mei Qingta looked at Chen Guan with uncertainty, having not seen clearly what had attacked him, this power was beyond his understanding.

A Second Awakening Cultivator couldn't possibly possess such terrifying power.

Chen Guan was equally astonished, feeling Mei Qingta's gaze, realizing he was not yet dead.

"Mei Qingta suffered a blow from the shadow and wasn't killed?" Within Chen Guan's mind turned hundreds of thoughts, knowing that his greatest trump card didn't kill Mei Qingta, wondering if Mei Qingta still had combat ability, and if the shadow could still protect him.

Previously, during the battle with the Evil Asura, even at that extent, the shadow did not intervene to assist him.

Chen Guan had understood then that the shadow would not actively help him, it acted only when the Emperor Ancestor or Great Qin had been insulted.

That's why Chen Guan had just spoken so much nonsense to Mei Qingta, to allure him into insulting the Emperor Ancestor or Great Qin.

This tactic did work as he had hoped, but now Mei Qingta probably wouldn't exchange words with him again. If Mei Qingta attacked again, he was uncertain if the shadow would make another move.

Both Mei Qingta and Chen Guan harbored their own concerns, both wary at heart. The scene cooled into silence, neither speaking nor did Mei Qingta attack again.

Mei Qingta was frightened by that attack, hesitant to act rashly, thoughts swirling in his mind, analyzing what had happened in that blow.

Chen Guan was contemplating various ways to break through the restraint on his body.

He still had plenty of Primordial Energy. If he could break Mei Qingta's methods and use the Pure Yang Sword Immortal, he might escape once again.

But Mei Qingta's Secret Skill was truly strange; it was one thing for him to not see, but for his body below the head to be uncontrollable, it was unknown whether it was due to nerve damage or some other Secret Skill.

With his body unable to move, even the Primordial Energy within it couldn't be harnessed.

If it were anyone else, they'd likely have no way out now, left to await death.

However, Chen Guan was different. His Primordial Energy isn't like an ordinary person's, only residing in the Sea of Qi. His energy is spread throughout his entire body.

He also had Primordial Energy in his head, which he continuously operated, using the Secret Technique of One, attempting to break through the restrictions of Mei Qingta's Secret Skill.
