Chapter 392: Qin Emperor's Realm
Standing in front of Emperor Qin was a figure with the face of a lion and the body of a human, with a sturdy build and clad in yellow armor, exuding a majestic and steady aura like Mount Tai.
The legendary Nine Spirit Saint!
Emperor Qin suppressed his excitement and said, "Nine Spirit Saint, you have finally arrived. We have been waiting for you for so long."
Upon hearing this, the Nine Spirit Saint smiled and said, "I encountered a little trouble on the way, which delayed me for a while."
As he spoke, he knelt down on one knee and respectfully said, "I pay my respects to Your Majesty."
He did not prostrate himself because his strength far surpassed Emperor Qin's, and he could not contain his pride. However, by kneeling down and paying his respects, it showed that he acknowledged Emperor Qin.
Emperor Qin quickly helped him up, and Nezha and others also knelt down, still keeping a wary eye on the Nine Spirit Saint.
They did not expect him to be so powerful that they dared not relax.
Even Chang'e, who was usually calm, frowned as she observed the Nine Spirit Saint. She was curious as to why such a powerful demon would pay homage to Emperor Qin.
The others felt the same way.
Old Master Yi was particularly terrified, thinking to himself, "Could this be the Holy Court's plan to make a comeback?"
With the Wheel of Fate and the remnants of Ji Yongsheng's soul attached to him, Emperor Qin was clearly the inheritor of the ancient Holy Court. He had successively subdued powerful individuals, and there must be a reason for it.
Apart from the Holy Court, Old Master Yi could not think of anyone else who could be behind this.
He vowed in his heart that he would never again test Emperor Qin and would find a way to establish a good relationship with him.
This was a big deal!
"With the assistance of the Nine Spirit Saint, who can stop me at the Grand Assembly?"
Emperor Qin spread his arms and laughed heartily, displaying an unparalleled arrogance that pleased the Nine Spirit Saint.
His words undoubtedly elevated the Nine Spirit Saint to the most powerful position under his command.
Although Nezha and King Huangfeng had made significant contributions, they did not have the confidence to defeat the Nine Spirit Saint, so they remained silent.
The pressure was immense!
Nezha and King Huangfeng exchanged a glance, both wearing bitter smiles.
They had originally seen each other as competitors, but now, with the sudden appearance of the Nine Spirit Saint, they were both overshadowed. The frustration was evident.
However, from the perspective of the Great Qin, they were still very happy, as it provided them with a greater sense of security.
"Prepare a feast! A city-wide feast!"
Emperor Qin exclaimed, and at the same time, the entire Shousha City was abuzz with discussions about the Nine Spirit Saint.
"My goodness! Was that an omen just now?"
"A nine-headed giant lion, could it be a powerful figure from the demon race?"
"It's terrifying. Its gaze just now made me shiver all over..."
"Another one paying homage to Emperor Qin?"
"No, we must spread this news. Emperor Qin has gained another powerful ally!"
The cultivators were discussing fervently, especially the scouts from other forces, who were becoming restless.
Soon, news of the Nine-Headed Lion Demon paying homage to Emperor Qin spread, but because the Nine Spirit Saint had not made a move, various forces could not estimate his true strength.
That day, Shousha City was bustling with excitement.
Everyone was discussing the name of the Nine Spirit Saint.
Without any achievements, he had gained Emperor Qin's utmost admiration, indicating that the Nine Spirit Saint was definitely very powerful.
With the addition of the Nine Spirit Saint, Emperor Qin became even more confident.
In the following days, Emperor Qin sought guidance from the Nine Spirit Saint every day. It was known from Journey to the West that the Nine Spirit Saint had many disciples, indicating his passion for education.
The Nine Spirit Saint was very generous, patient in guiding Emperor Qin, and did not put on airs even when facing Nezha and others. He quickly won the favor of many people.
Of course, there were also those who were not convinced, such as Li Yuanba, who always sought to spar with the Nine Spirit Saint and was almost always defeated.
The debate over who was stronger, the Golden-Winged Great Peng Bird or the Nine Spirit Saint, became one of the hottest topics in Journey to the West. Unfortunately, because Li Yuanba had not reached the peak state of the Golden-Winged Great Peng Bird, he lost face for the bird.
On the other hand, Emperor Qin dispatched the Heavenly Guards to the Small World and began constructing the imperial palace. At the same time, the Small World was renamed the Qin Emperor's Realm!
On the fifth day of the Nine Spirit Saint's homage, Emperor Qin and his confidants moved into the Qin Emperor's Realm to cultivate. The spiritual energy inside was more than a hundred times richer than the outside world, irresistible to anyone seeking cultivation.
In another four or five days, Emperor Qin would set off for the Holy Dynasty.
On this day, Emperor Qin, accompanied by Nezha and the Nine Spirit Saint, arrived at the forbidden area of the Qin Emperor's Realm, a place where even Nezha could not break the restriction.
It was a mountain, towering a thousand meters high, resembling a sword thrust into the earth.
Emperor Qin stood in front of the cave entrance at the foot of the mountain, deep in thought.
"The formidable fellow is hidden inside," the Nine Spirit Saint said, squinting his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Qin's eyelids twitched. Wow, there really was a hidden powerhouse inside?
"Do you lack confidence in defeating him?" Emperor Qin asked with a furrowed brow. If that was the case, he would retreat and not risk going in.
"I only said he's formidable, not that he's more formidable than me," the Nine Spirit Saint said confidently.
Despite currently only being at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, he was capable of fighting opponents of higher realms.
Emperor Qin breathed a sigh of relief, while Nezha looked at the Nine Spirit Saint with a complex expression. He couldn't even discern what was inside, yet the Nine Spirit Saint could sense what was hidden and how powerful it was.
The disparity was heartbreaking.
He vowed to find a way to become stronger.
"Quickly break the restriction!" Emperor Qin urged eagerly.
Removing this potential threat was necessary for the true security of the Qin Emperor's Realm.
The Ninth Spirit Emperor nodded and took a step towards the entrance of the cave. With a wave of his right hand, there was a loud explosion, as if an invisible barrier in front of the cave entrance was shattered. A fierce wind blew, causing Qin Jun to shield his face with his hand.
Immediately, a violent pressure emanated from inside the cave.
"Haha! The prohibition has been broken! I am free!" a domineering voice echoed out, exuding an arrogant tone as if no one in the world could restrain him.
"Hmph!" The Ninth Spirit Emperor snorted coldly, silencing the laughter from inside the cave.
He then stepped into the cave, with Qin Jun and Nezha following closely behind.
Qin Jun wanted to see who was suppressed inside and also to learn about the origin of the Qinhuang Realm.
The tunnel was dark and winding, and as they moved quickly, the Ninth Spirit Emperor disappeared into thin air, probably having reached the bottom of the cave to prevent the other party from escaping.
Rumble—
The entire mountain suddenly trembled, making Qin Jun's heart pound with fear, afraid that the mountain might collapse and crush him.
"They've started fighting!" Nezha said solemnly, his eyes filled with fear. The aura of battle emanating from the Ninth Spirit Emperor and the mysterious being sent shivers down his spine.
Qin Jun quickened his pace, but also dared not to advance too quickly to avoid being accidentally injured.
Before long, the tremors ceased, and everything returned to calm. The battle seemed to have lasted only a few seconds.
