Chapter 353: The Corpse of An Immortal For You
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Master, let me take a look at our son,” the beautiful woman lying on the bed said weakly.
The middle-aged man immediately carried the baby boy over.
With the midwife’s help, the beautiful woman struggled to sit up and held the baby boy in her arms.
“My son, after waiting for three years, you are finally born.” The beautiful woman’s eyes were filled with tears, reflecting boundless motherly love.
Just as she said, the baby had been in her womb for three years.
A pregnancy lasted ten months.
But, the beautiful woman was pregnant for three years.
For this reason, they sought out famous doctors, but none of them had a solution.
Now that he was born, they were very excited.
“Master, what shall we name our son?” the beautiful woman asked.
The middle-aged man pondered for a moment before saying, “Madam, for the sake our child, we have searched for famous mountains and great rivers to seek a famous doctor. Let’s name the child Qin Chuan1!”
“Qin Chuan!” The beautiful lady looked at the boy in her arms. “Qin Chuan, all rivers run into the sea. A good name, a good name.”
When the words “Qin Chuan” were spoken, the eyes of the baby boy in their arms flashed, as a strange gaze that an infant shouldn’t have appeared.
“What an illusion. I almost fell for it.”
The middle-aged man looked at the baby boy in shock.
“My son… you…”
The baby boy broke free from the woman’s embrace and floated in midair.
“Shen Qiangwei, you can’t trap me.”
“Disappear!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Dharmic powers around Qin Chuan surged, and a black ball appeared before him.
The black ball had a tremendous suction force. It was like a huge abyssal mouth that pulled in everything around it.
Soon, the surroundings shattered like glass and gradually dissipated, returning them to the void area of the Silver Moon Pagoda.
At this moment, red steam rose from Shen Qiangwei’s body. Her aura was not as powerful as before.
“D*mn it, I was so close. I was so close to succeeding.” Shen Qiangwei gritted her teeth. Her eyes were especially bloodshot.
“That’s right, you almost succeeded. But in the end, my will won against your illusion.”
Although Qin Chuan’s tone was calm, he still had a lingering fear from the earlier experience.
It was impossible to understand without experiencing that illusion.
“I’m very curious, what nomological laws do you cultivate?” Qin Chuan asked.
Shen Qiangwei did not hide anything and replied, “I cultivate the Dao of Array Formations.”
“The Dao of Array Formations?” Qin Chansi nodded. “I see.”
According to what he knew, the Dao of Array Formations was considered a Great Dao that was rather difficult to cultivate.
It was not very difficult to gain an elementary understanding of it. However, cultivating it to a profound level wasn’t any easier than doing so with the laws.
This was because array formations encompassed all things, and one needed to understand many things.
For example, the [Four Fatal Scenes Array] Shen Qiangwei used at the start.
This required a deep understanding of the five fundamental laws of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
Otherwise, one would not be able to use it.
Even if he did, it would not be too powerful.
The last move was called [Samsara Life].
That was impressive.
The effect of the formation was just like its name. Those who were struck by this move would undergo endless reincarnation and be forever trapped within.
Luckily, Qin Chuan had a firm will, and he quickly came to his senses. If not, he wouldn’t have been able to escape.
“I’m not as skilled as you, but I won’t let you get your way with killing me.”
Shen Qiangwei knew that if she fell into Qin Chuan’s hands, he would definitely search her soul.
By then, her identity as a member of the Beast Taming Corps would be known.
In that case, they would definitely be alerted.
Therefore, she only had one way out: Self-destruction.
Shen Qiangwei was a Silver Immortal. The power of her self-destruction was enough to destroy a celestial body the size of a solar system.
The red steam on her body grew thicker and thicker. Cracks appeared on the surface of her body as her body expanded.
Su Hantian and the company realized the severity of the matter.
If pulled into it, one would die.
“Fellow cultivator Qin, we will take our leave first.” Su Hantian transmitted his voice to Qin Chuan, and in the next second, the group of people disappeared.
Qin Chuan could understand why they left.
The self-detonation of an Immortal realm expert was simply too destructive and could not be taken lightly.
“Why aren’t you leaving?” Shen Qiangwei was slightly surprised that Qin Chuan didn’t leave immediately.
Qin Chuan calmly replied, “This is my territory. Even if you want to die, you have to get my permission first.”
Shen Qiangwei chuckled. “What an arrogant fellow. If you wish to die with me, I’ll satisfy you.”
Shen Qiangwei’s body had already expanded to an exaggerated extent. Dazzling cracks like magma covered her entire body, and the aura of destruction grew stronger.
She would probably self-destruct in the next second.
Qin Chuan still stayed.
With his ability, it was not too late to use spatial teleportation.
Shen Qiangwei’s body started to crack. This was a sign that she was going to explode.
Qin Chuan’s eyes flashed as he pointed at the air and shouted, “Freeze!”
In that instant, time stopped. Everything stopped. The air froze.
The destructive aura emanating from Shen Qiangwei’s body froze in midair. Her entire person was like a three-dimensional rendering image.
Qin Chuan came before Shen Qiangwei.
With his current ability, he could only freeze time for about two seconds.
But these mere two seconds drained all of Qin Chuan’s Dharmic powers.
The Laws of Time were, after all, one of the supreme Laws. It was already good that Qin Chuan was able to use it in the Heavenly Immortal realm.
Although the duration was short, he could do many things.
Qin Chuan exchanged for items from the Merchant Shop to recover his Dharmic powers. Then, he imprisoned Shen Qiangwei and searched her soul.
Qin Chuan frowned, feeling surprised.
“Nothing else?”
“How scheming.”
Qin Chuan didn’t find any information.
Shen Qiangwei’s mind was blank. She was like a newborn baby, without any memories.
Qin Chuan speculated that when Shen Qiangwei self-destructed, she had already erased all her memories.
In that case, even if he searched her soul, he would not be able to obtain anything.
Since there was no longer any value to her, when the freezing of time was about to end, Qin Chuan ended Shen Qiangwei’s life.
“Fellow cultivator Su, come back!” Qin Chuan transmitted his voice to Su Hantian.
A moment later, Su Hantian and the others returned.
Su Hantian stared at Qin Chuan in astonishment.
Qin Chuan brought Shen Qiangwei’s corpse over.
“Fellow Daoist Su, I promised you a corpse of an immortal.” Qin Chuan handed Shen Qiangwei’s corpse to Su Hantian.
Su Hantian asked, “Fellow cultivator Qin, you stopped the self-destruction?”
He believed that he did not have the ability to stop it, so he chose to retreat.
Qin Chuan smiled. “I make the decisions in my territory. Even if she wants to die, she has to get my permission.”
Su Hantian stared at Qin Chuan in astonishment.
He didn’t know what methods Qin Chuan used to stop her, but from the earlier battle, he knew Qin Chuan’s strength was unfathomable.
After pondering for a moment, Su Hantian bowed slightly. “Fellow cultivator Qin, I will accept this corpse.
“I didn’t bring any valuable items with me this time, but I won’t come empty-handed next time.”
Qin Chuan smiled. “If your esteemed faction agrees to collaborate with me, that would be the best gift.”
Su Hantian laughed. “I will do my best to convince the higher-ups about that. Please wait for the good news.”
Qin Chuan nodded and smiled.
Then…
Su Hantian put Shen Qiangwei’s corpse into his storage ring.
The corpse of an immortal was extremely valuable to them.
This was equivalent to gaining an Immortal realm expert, and it could provide quite a bit of combat ability.
Now that they had dealt with Shen Qiangwei, Qin Chuan and the rest exited the Silver Moon Pagoda.
At the same time, in a certain corner of the planet, a cotton-like seed suddenly opened…
