"Why does every generation's Taiyin Physique end up entangled with a common man?"

The woman in black sighed in her heart.

She was a member of the An Yue Guard from the hidden sect Guanghan Palace, responsible for assassination and secretive affairs, and was privy to many secrets.

It was said that every Taiyin Physique discovered by the sect and brought back would be preoccupied with some filthy man from the Mortal World.

It hindered their cultivation and affected their state of mind.

The best solution was only one: to completely sever this emotional entanglement by killing that man!

"The Taiyin Physique appears once every three hundred years, and our sect might not even identify it." The woman in black's eyes flickered with murderous intent, her dagger gripped tightly as she declared in a deep voice, "Qin Heng, I must kill you to prevent you from delaying the Taiyin Physique's cultivation!!"

"Indeed, you still want to kill me, huh?" A light and mocking voice sounded from behind the woman in black, instantly causing her body to tense up.

Then, without a second thought, her Internal Force erupted. She somersaulted with a leap, dagger in hand, her figure flashing as she charged forward, attacking the source of the voice under the moonlight like a streak of light!

She was a Transcendence Realm Grandmaster; her strike could sever gold and shatter jade, unstoppable, capable of slicing a truck in half with the dagger in her hand!

This was the strength of a Martial Artist from a hidden sect, far surpassing that of the common world!

The woman in black felt sure she had already seen the scene where she would behead the voice's owner, his blood spilling into the night sky.

CLANG!

However, accompanied by the sound of metal clashing, the woman in black's advance halted. She stared in shock at the young man before her.

He actually—

Blocked her dagger with just one finger!!

This person, was he Qin Heng!?

"How can you be so strong!?" the woman in black exclaimed in shock. She had never expected her assassination target to come to her himself.

Moreover, he had blocked her attack barehanded. Such strength, even among worldly Grandmasters, was extremely formidable!

She had originally thought that Qin Heng was merely a Half-step Grandmaster. She didn't expect that at such a young age, he had already stepped into the Transcendence Realm.

"Impressive strength, and a formidable physical body." The woman in black narrowed her eyes and sneered, "However, even if your body is strong, it is of no use! I am an An Yue Guard of Guanghan Palace, cultivating the 'Dark Moon Godly Shadow Technique.' My speed is something you cannot possibly..."

BANG!

"You talk too much." Qin Heng slapped the woman's face.

An unmatched and terrifying power gathered in his palm, releasing tens of thousands of kilograms of formidable force that exploded the woman's head.

Instantly, her head burst into a mist of blood. Headless, her body spurted blood from the neck like a fountain.

WHOOSH!

A pale blue flame ignited from Qin Heng, falling onto the woman in black's corpse and instantly reducing her to a pile of ash. Then, a pale blue, semi-transparent soul body emerged.

It was the beautiful face of the woman in black, wearing an expression of disbelief and shock as she looked at Qin Heng.

CRACK!!

Suddenly, the sound of something shattering rang out. The freshly emerged semi-transparent soul body cracked in mid-air; a bright silver light, akin to moonlight, split the soul body in two, and it continued to disintegrate!

"The Divine soul is annihilating itself?" Qin Heng was startled. He raised a finger and re-condensed the soul body that was about to explode. However, the woman's soul body had already become stupefied, as if devoid of intelligence.

"The nature of this person's Divine soul has been altered due to her Cultivation Technique," Qin Heng instantly realized what was happening.

Clearly, the 'Dark Moon Godly Shadow Technique' mentioned by the woman in black had the effect of altering the nature of the Divine soul so that upon encountering certain conditions, the soul would self-destruct, leaving no trace.

"Such techniques are common in the Immortal Cultivation World. Many sects and clans rear death soldiers who cultivate such techniques as a means of maintaining confidentiality," Qin Heng frowned slightly, puzzled. "I hadn't expected Earth to have such Cultivation Techniques."

Originally, Qin Heng thought that although there were some ancient cultivation heritages on Earth, their level should not be very high; now it seemed that might not be the case.

Cultivation Techniques involving the Divine soul could only be created by Cultivators in the Golden Core Realm, at the very least.

Guanghan Palace had such a technique that could alter the nature of the Divine soul, allowing it to self-destruct.

This meant that Guanghan Palace had once possessed a powerhouse comparable to the Golden Core Realm!

As for the present, it remained unknown.

"Interesting. It's really getting more and more interesting," Qin Heng suddenly laughed.

Then, his gaze turned towards the woman in black's soul body. He found that her memories had been erased in the recent mishap, but thanks to his intervention, her martial knowledge and instincts were still intact.

"This state is actually most suitable for refining into a Dao protector," Qin Heng said, lifting a finger. A golden light then fell into the soul body.

Immediately, the soul body shone brightly, like a small golden sun appearing in the night.

At the same time, the pile of ashes also swiftly merged into the translucent soul body.

Gradually, the golden light faded, revealing a young woman of stunning beauty and a tall, fiery figure right before Qin Heng.

She was completely naked, with all parts visibly clear.

From this moment on, the world had one less loyal An Yue Guard of Guanghan Palace and one more Dao protector in the service of Immortal Emperor Xuantian.

"You shall be called An Yue," Qin Heng said with an unchanged expression, glancing over An Yue's beautiful body and nodding. "Now, you are stronger than you were in life, comparable to the pinnacle of the Transcendence Realm!"

In Qin Heng's eyes, An Yue was merely a Dao weapon, similar to a magic item or a weapon.

No matter how beautiful or appealing, he would not have any other feeling.

Qin Heng, with An Yue, returned through the window to the room.

With An Yue standing by his side, he sat cross-legged on the bed, eyes slightly closed, practicing cultivation in place of sleep, polishing his Mana and physical body.

「The next morning.」

Qin Heng, accompanied by An Yue who was dressed in a black sports tank top and tight leather pants, drove the Mercedes he had acquired from the Nie family to the foot of Mount QianFo.

Qin Heng looked handsome and radiant, but what drew more attention was the inseparable An Yue by his side.

She was in her twenties, with exquisite features and stunning looks.

Especially as she was wearing a tank top and black leather pants, highlighting her soft, towering curves, slender waist, and pert buttocks; her lithe and fiery figure was showcased in full splendor.

A woman like her would draw eyes no matter where she was.

In comparison, Qin Heng seemed more ordinary. Although he had a gentle demeanor, An Yue had a pale face exuding a cold aura that seemed to keep people at a distance.

An Yue attracted quite a bit of attention.

"Bro, what are you looking at? Aren't we going to Golden Buddha Temple to watch the fight?" a dissatisfied voice suddenly spoke up. It was a girl of seventeen or eighteen, young and pretty.

By her side was a man in his twenties, quite handsome. Behind them followed four burly men who looked like their bodyguards.

"Little sister, you don't understand. A beauty like jade should not be missed." The man smiled, approached An Yue, and offered a very gentlemanly smile as he extended his hand. "Miss, I am Wei He from Longnan. May I ask your name? Are you also here to watch the battle between Qin Xuantian and the Golden Buddha Temple?"
