Chapter 130: Leaving the Demon Suppression Tower, Being Surrounded
The weapon spirit resisted the urge to take action.
“Can you show it to me?”
“How can I show it? Lord Weapon Spirit, are you kidding me? It’s not a demon pill that can be taken out at will.”
Qin Bei couldn’t help but take a step back.
A cultivator’s golden elixir can only appear outside the body at the moment of gathering; at all other times, it resides in the dantian.
If you want to take it out of the dantian, you’ll have to destroy the cultivator first.
“What are you thinking? I just want to feel it.”
The weapon spirit looked at Qin Bei incredulously and said, “You just need to stand still.”
“Oh~ is that so? Then it’s fine, let me show you Qin Bei’s golden elixir.”
Weapon Spirit: …
A long time passed…
The weapon spirit finally accepted the fact that a nine-turn golden elixir existed.
Who would have thought that after countless years of existence, firmly believing that the nine-turn golden elixir was impossible, this particular person would appear now?
“Alright, you don’t have to break into the tower.”
The weapon spirit waved his hand.
Upon hearing this, Qin Bei panicked. He thought the weapon spirit was going to pull some antics again, so he asked, “What do you mean? You didn’t see my power increase and want to adjust the difficulty, did you? That’s just shameless!”
The weapon spirit’s nostrils flared in anger.
This kid is never serious.
“This weapon spirit directly assumes that you successfully passed the seventh floor. From now on, you can enjoy the benefits of having passed the seventh floor. And I assure you, I’ll help you solve this difficulty as well. Now, you can leave.”
Qin Bei looked at the weapon spirit in surprise, saying, “I haven’t even started yet, and I passed?”
“In the Demon Suppression Tower, I call the shots. If I say you passed, then you passed. There’s no need for any doubts.”
“Then I want to try the eighth floor. Since I just passed the seventh floor, I’m in peak condition right now. Who knows? I might succeed!”
Qin Bei rubbed his hands together, eager to try.
Weapon Spirit: …
“Don’t even think about it. The eighth floor isn’t something you can tackle now.”
“Why?”
The weapon spirit laughed in exasperation. “Didn’t you even check the rules before entering the tower? The eighth floor requires at least an entry to the Fairy Realm to get in. Are you thinking of barging into the ninth floor and picking any Great Xia sacred technique you want?”
Qin Bei was stunned. “There’s such a rule? I really didn’t know.”
“Hurry up and get out of here. I don’t want to see you for even a moment longer. It’s annoying!”
The weapon spirit sounded as impatient as if driving away a fly.
Qin Bei reluctantly said, “Alright, I’ll leave then. Just remember what you said.”
“Go, go! It’s no big deal, a token can sort it out.”
The weapon spirit waved his hand.
In the next moment, Qin Bei disappeared from the Demon Suppression Tower.
………
Outside the Demon Suppression Tower.
At this moment, Qin Xiu was on the verge of exploding.
For days, Qin Bei had been going in and out of the Demon Suppression Tower right in front of him, but he could only watch, completely helpless.
Meanwhile, the Ninth Prince and Ying were casually sticking to their routines, appearing utterly unbothered.
Noble Consort Shu had lost her temper countless times and even considered stirring up trouble for Ling Fei.
However, the imperial guards refused to let Noble Consort Shu into Qing Ling Palace, and Ling Fei was also confined to Qing Ling Palace to recuperate.
“Your Highness, why don’t you go back and rest? We’ll keep an eye here. As long as Prince Bei comes out again, we can definitely control him immediately.”
“Yes, with Mr. He around, Prince Bei surely can’t escape this time.”
Several men beside Qin Xiu said.
These guys were not from the royal family; they were only allowed into the palace because of Qin Xiu.
They were the offerings of Qin Xiu’s palace.
And the Mr. He they mentioned was He Hong, the first offering in Qin Xiu’s palace, who possessed profound cultivation.
He came this time specifically to catch Qin Bei.
The Ninth Prince and Ying merely turned a blind eye to the whole affair, believing that with Qin Bei being able to utilize the teleportation jade slip, He Hong would have a hard time catching him.
“No! I must wait here. I won’t rest a day until I catch him!”
Qin Xiu stated resolutely.
His subordinates looked on helplessly.
Zheng~
At that moment, the sound Qin Xiu had been eagerly awaiting for days finally rang out.
The appearance of that sound meant Qin Bei had been teleported out of the Demon Suppression Tower.
“Quick! Mr. He! Get ready, we must catch him this time!”
Qin Xiu, who had been on the verge of collapse just moments ago, instantly regained his energy and commanded his subordinates to intercept Qin Bei.
“Don’t worry, Your Highness, with me here, nothing untoward will happen!”
He Hong’s booming voice resonated as his cultivation burst forth, controlling the entire scene.
As long as Qin Bei appeared, he would immediately do his utmost to block the connection between the teleportation jade slip and the space.
Even if it was for just a moment, that little time would be enough for the others to apprehend Qin Bei.
From a distance, Ying and the Ninth Prince exchanged glances at the scene.
“Sir, should we intervene?”
Shadow One Hundred stood behind Ying, inquiring.
Ying chuckled softly and shook his head.
“Lord Qiling’s abilities are far beyond what a mere golden immortal can interfere with; it’s all just a waste of effort. If it comforts Prince Xiu, then let them be.”
The Ninth Prince and others shared this sentiment, waiting to watch Qin Xiu and his group make fools of themselves.
“Stop!”
Qin Bei had just stepped out of the Demon Suppression Tower when he heard a loud shout, startling him. He turned around to see who was acting crazy enough to scare him like a child.
But the next moment, he found he couldn’t move his body.
“Quick! Go and catch him!”
Qin Xiu’s excited voice pierced through.
“Hahaha, fool! You actually stashed away the teleportation jade slip! Without it, how will you escape?”
Qin Xiu was genuinely ecstatic. After waiting so long, he finally got to this moment.
He Hong was the first to rush out.
Noticing that Qin Bei hadn’t taken the teleportation jade slip, he and Qin Xiu shared the same thought: Qin Bei was just surviving for now.
If there had been a teleportation jade slip, he likely wouldn’t be able to bind Qin Bei, as the teleportation jade slip itself could prevent such tactics.
But since Qin Bei had tucked it away, he was now just a foundation-building realm cultivator, nothing special at all.
A cultivator in the Golden Immortal Realm could toy with him at will.
The Ninth Prince, who had been enjoying a shoulder massage from a beauty, stood up in surprise, gazing at the immobilized Qin Bei.
“What an idiot! How can you skimp at a time like this?”
The Ninth Prince slapped his thigh in frustration.
He thought Qin Bei was trying to save a teleportation jade slip, gearing up to enter the Demon Suppression Tower himself.
Meanwhile, Ying also paused his game of chess, frowning at the frozen figure of Qin Bei.
Now he found himself in a bit of a bind.
Should he catch Qin Bei? It seemed Qin Bei hadn’t accomplished anything yet. If they apprehended him now, it could become problematic.
But if he didn’t, Qin Xiu would catch him anyway. He couldn’t very well help Qin Bei escape at this moment, could he?
As both the Ninth Prince and Ying were tangled in this dilemma, a low rumble of thunder echoed throughout the palace.
