I Became Invincible After Sweeping The Floor For 70 Years - Chapter 233

233 Qin Chen’s Condition

As soon as Qin Chen finished speaking, the entire Tianxia City was in an uproar before Gu Tianhen could even respond.

“What does he mean by controlling the supreme-ruler-demon Body? No matter how I look at it, it’s a scheme. After all, the Elder King tricked me!”

“Damn, that was all I have! The Elder King is too vicious.”

“Who can tell me, was the Elder King trying to investigate Gu Tianhen’s body, or was he trying to trick us?”

!!
“The Elder King clearly knows that we’re betting that he will win, but he still used such a method to check on Gu Tianhen’s body. There’s no doubt that there’s a scheme going on.”

The talents who took part in the bet were complaining. However, due to Qin Chen and the big scorpion’s terrifying strength, they only dared to complain verbally. No one dared to go to Qin Chen and the big scorpion for an explanation.

At this moment, Gu Tianhen replied to Qin Chen, “What are your conditions?”

“Come to me at night. I will tell you how to control the supreme-ruler-demon Body and my conditions. If you don’t believe me, you don’t have to come. However, I can guarantee that in the ten lands, other than me, no one can help you control the supreme-ruler-demon Body,” Qin Chen said. He didn’t tell Gu Tianhen his condition immediately, keeping the latter in suspense instead.

“Alright, I’ll go to you tonight,” Gu Tianhen snorted coldly and left.

After Gu Tianhen left, Qin Chen also returned to the tavern. Along the way, he attracted the attention of many. The talents gritted their teeth and stared at him. If not for their lack of strength, they would have already attacked him.

“Fellow Daoist, you are really powerful. To think you have a way to control the supreme-ruler-demon Body. From what I know, there is only one way to do so, and that is to cultivate the supreme-ruler-demon Imperial Sutra created by Great Emperor Shen Mo. However, the supreme-ruler-demon Imperial Sutra has not appeared for 10000 years. Could it be in your hands?” Ji Daozi exclaimed and looked at Qin Chen in surprise. Although he had only interacted with Qin Chen for half a day, his intuition told him that the secrets this person was hiding were no less than his.

Qin Chen was also quite surprised. He didn’t expect Ji Daozi to know so much. As for the supreme-ruler-demon Imperial Sutra, he had naturally obtained it when he checked in at the great emperor’s palace. To not expose his foundation, Qin Chen replied softly, “Fellow Daoist, you’re flattering me. How could I have a treasure like the supreme-ruler-demon Imperial Sutra? It’s just that I have some baseless information.”

Hearing Qin Chen’s words, Ji Daozi smiled and didn’t continue the topic. However, at this moment, Dao Ming’s figure suddenly appeared in the sky above Tianxia City, instantly attracting everyone’s attention.

“Tomorrow morning, the Heavenly Dao Mansion will begin to select the geniuses who will head to Chiyang Heaven. Anyone in the Sage realm with a bone age of not over 800 years old can participate in the selection. Only twenty people will be selected, and they will go with us to Chiyang Heaven in two days.”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone became nervous. After all, there were only 20 spots. With so many talents in Tianxia City, it would not be easy to fight for a spot.

“With the Elder King, ancient princes, and the others around, our chances of passing the selection are slim. I can only hope that tomorrow’s selection will be different so that we can have a glimmer of hope.”

“A sliver of hope? It’s impossible. With the monstrous Elder King and the others around, we have no hope at all.”

“It seems like I came here in vain again. However, it’s not a loss to be able to see so many monstrous geniuses.”

“Can’t they offer more spots? If there are 20 more spots, I’ll definitely be able to enter the Heavenly Dao Mansion.”

“…”

The discussion did not stop. Everyone’s attention was on the Heavenly Dao Mansion’s selection tomorrow. Qin Chen also took the opportunity to bring Ling Ran back to their residence.

When the two of them arrived at the inn, the big scorpion had long been waiting. He was leaning against the counter, playing with a spatial storage ring in his hand.

Seeing the big scorpion, Qin Chen strode forward with a smug smile on his face. He said softly, “How is it? We must have earned a lot this time! Give me my share.”

“Hehe, this time’s harvest isn’t small. We’ve earned a total of 1.4 million kilograms of Divine Spirit Source. Here are your 7 million kilograms. I’ve already prepared it for you,” The big scorpion replied with a smile, then threw a storage ring to Qin Chen. The storage ring contained exactly 7 million kilograms of Divine Spirit Source.

“7 million?” Qin Chen’s eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice, “We agreed that I’ll take 70% and you’ll take 30%. Why? Are you trying to take advantage of me?”

“Although your contribution is indeed greater than mine, my contribution wasn’t small either. In line with the principle of fairness, let’s split it 50-50!” The big scorpion rubbed his hands and said seriously. It was obvious that he wanted to take Qin Chen’s twenty percent.

Qin Chen gritted his teeth. He was not the type to suffer losses, so he immediately picked up the big scorpion and cursed, “You’ve grown some guts, huh? you even dared to swallow my Divine Spirit Source.”

Ling Ran rolled her eyes when she saw that the two were arguing over the loot distribution. She ignored the two of them and walked back to her room with a speechless expression.

As the saying goes, an arm can’t win against a leg. Under the threat of Qin Chen’s power, the big scorpion finally gave back 20% of the Divine Spirit Source to Qin Chen and returned to his room with a wronged expression.

On the other hand, Qin Chen returned with a great victory. Although he had obtained a lot of Divine Spirit Sources from checking in, his cultivation required a large amount. The nearly 10 million kilograms of Divine Spirit Souce was something that he needed right now. Otherwise, he would not have been so calculative with the big scorpion.

The night was hazy, and Tianxia City was shrouded in a tense atmosphere. All the talents could not sleep at all as they were preparing for the Heavenly Dao Mansion’s selection tomorrow.

Qin Chen sat cross-legged on his bed and cultivated. A breeze blew and Gu Tianhen appeared by the window with a heavy sword on his back.

“Elder King, I’m here. Speak, what are your conditions?” Gu Tianhen asked.

Qin Chen stopped his cultivation and walked down from his bed. He looked at Gu Tianhen deeply and said softly, “I hope that you can protect Ling Ran’s safety in Chiyang Heaven.”

“You want me to protect Holy Lord Ling Ran? Are you really not planning to go to the Chiyang Heaven?” Gu Tianhen was shocked. He didn’t expect the Elder King to not go to Chiyang Heaven. One should know that the spiritual energy between Heaven and Earth in Chiyang Heaven was ten times that of the ten lands. The speed of cultivation there was also ten times that of the ten lands. No matter how monstrous the Elder King’s talent was, if he didn’t go to Chiyang Heaven, he would be overtaken by the other talents.

Qin Chen raised his head and smiled while saying softly, “I’m just not going to Chiyang Heaven for the time being. So, I want you to help me protect Ling Ran before I do. As a reward, I’ll give you the method to control the supreme-ruler-demon Body which will also increase your strength greatly.”
