Chapter 268: Quasi-Dharma Body!

Edited by: Mochiusagi

“The World-Honored One.”

The 6th, 7th and 9th Ancestors immediately recognized the figure, hurriedly approaching him. They all bowed together and said: “Greetings, World-Honored One.”

“How much time has passed?”

Su Qin slowly suppressed the qi and blood fluctuations around him, then asked.

“Replying to the World-Honored One, two months have passed.” The 6th Ancestor immediately replied.

“So it’s been two months…”

Su Qin turned and looked at the valley behind him, with a slightly emotional expression.

In the past two months, Su Qin had spent almost all of his time on Cultivation and Signing In.

“It’s a pity that this Earth Element Source has not completely matured. Otherwise, my body would have completed the seventh transformation.”

Su Qin felt a little regretful.

The seventh transformation was equivalent to an Earth Immortal’s body. It would definitely bring a qualitative change in his power.

“However, even if I did not get to undergo the seventh transformation, I should be at least at the peak of the sixth transformation. So it’s counted as a quasi-dharma body, right?”

With this point, a smile appeared on Su Qin’s face.

If we say that Su Qin’s body was only close to a dharma body before, now he’s half a step into it.

In fact, Su Qin could have totally tried undergoing the seventh transformation, but in the end he gave the idea up. That’s because there was a great risk of failure.

Although Su Qin possessed the [Flesh Rebirth], failure meant the complete collapse of his body. Moreso, even with the [Flesh Rebirth], Su Qin will lose part of his combat power for a long time.

With Su Qin’s cautious personality, he certainly won’t put himself in danger. Even if he had a Flat Peach, it was for when he tackles the Great Arhat Realm. He would not use it unless it was the last resort.

Also, Su Qin had a feeling that maybe after a few years, he would be able to complete the seventh transformation naturally.

In this case, Su Qin naturally does not need to take this risk.

“This is the Earth Element Source…” Su Qin looked at the valley that was not far away.

The Element Source was not transplantable like the Spirit Spring. The reason for the formation of an Element Source, was that the Earth Element had slowly gathered into this area after accumulating for a long time.

Therefore, even if Su Qin moved all this valley to Chang’an City, it would not help, because the entire Western Desert could not be moved.

But, as long as Su Qin does not change the topography of this terrain, thousands of years later, as the strength of Earth Element of the entire Western Desert converges continuously here, it will once again form a new Earth Element Source.

While Su Qin was pondering, the 6th, 7th and 9th Ancestors became more and more horrified.

At this moment, even with their Peak Arhat strength, they had a hard time breathing in front of Su Qin.

Su Qin’s qi and blood hadn’t fully receeded yet, so it was spreading around.

“Congratulations, the World-Honored One has regained the Great Arhat Realm.” The 6th, 7th and 9th Ancestors looked at each other, bowing together.

[T/N: “regained” because they think that Su Qin is a reincarnation]

At this moment, the qi and blood that Su Qin had been exuding had clearly exceeded the Arhat Realm. Only a Great Arhat could compare to his current state.

Therefore, the three Ancestors believe that Su Qin was at the Great Arhat Realm.

“Great Arhat Realm…”

The 9th Ancestor wore a slightly complicated expression on his face.

In long history in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall, there have been many brilliant disciples who were considered geniuses, but in the end, only a few of them could enter the Great Arhat Realm.

Those that did manage to reach the Great Arhat Realm paid a high price. But Su Qin just took two months of seclusion to go from Peak Arhat, who had not yet transformed his Primordial Spirit, into the Great Arhat Realm?

“Great Arhat?”

Su Qin wore an indifferent expression.

The Great Arhat Realm of the Buddhist Sects was equivalent to the Earth Immortal Realm. Same power level, it was just the name was different.

“I have not yet entered the Great Arhat Realm.” Su Qin shook his head slightly and said.

Although his body was a quasi-dharma body, he was still a long way from the Great Arhat Realm.

“Not yet at the Great Arhat Realm?” The 6th Ancestor blinked, feeling puzzled.

“But even a Great Arhat wouldn’t be able to do anything against me.” Su Qin looked away from the valley and said.

Whether it was Great Arhat or Earth Immortal, the main method was to cover the area of ​​Great Accomplishment with a single thought.

An Earth Immortal had the Great Domain that would suppress those at the Legend Realm. But since Su Qin’s body was a quasi-dharma body, he had a certain resistance to the Great Domain. Not like other Peak Legends and have no chance to resist.

Also, Su Qin could just sneak into the depths of the earth with the [Earthbound Technique].

Deep within the earth, even a Great Domain’s scope would be suppressed. Unless, of course, it’s a Peak Earth Immortal, like the True Monarch of the Eastern Sea. At that point, it can’t be helped.

“A Great Arhat not being able to do anything…”

The 6th, 7th and 9th Ancestors were all in awe.

They didn’t doubt Su Qin’s words.

Since Su Qin said that he did not step into the Great Arhat Realm, then he’s not really in the Great Arhat Realm. This also meant that Su Qin was still in the Arhat Realm.

Though, Su Qin said that even a Great Arhat couldn’t do anything to him? What kind of self-confidence was this?

“Alright.”

“I should leave.”

Su Qin looked at the three Ancestors and said softly.

In this seclusion, Su Qin’s main purpose was completed. That was, to elevate his body to peak sixth transformation and be at half a step into a true dharma body.

Apart from this, Su Qin Signed In at the Earth Element Source more than a dozen times while he was in seclusion.

In this dozen plus Sign Ins, Su Qin had obtained a large number of Earth Element Divine Pills, and even an Earth Element Flag, plus the [Earthbound Art] at the beginning. It can be said that he has gained a lot in this trip.

The Earth Element Flag is a magic weapon of the Earth Element. It contains a great array. Once it was inserted in a certain place, an area of several dozen li would be enveloped by the array.

It should be no less powerful than the All Souls Buddha Lamp.

“We wish the World-Honored One a farewell.”

Even if the three Ancestors were reluctant to have Su Qin leave, they can only respectfully follow his wishes.

Inside the Tang Empire Imperial Palace.

Emperor Li Sheng looked at the Old Taoist and asked solemnly: “Myriad Sword Sect? A Major Sect overseas?”

As the vitality continued to recover, there were many overseas Legends entering the Tang Empire, so Emperor Li Sheng naturally learned about the Major Sects overseas.

“Princess Li Wan has the Sword Heart Body. Among the many Major Sects overseas, only the Myriad Sword Sect will need this kind of physique…”

The Old Taoist sighed slightly.

When he first met Li Wan, he discovered that the other party had the rare Sword Heart Body, but he didn’t expect the Myriad Sword Sect to find out so quickly.

“Myriad Sword Sect…”

“Then what should I do?”

Emperor Li Sheng helplessly said.

If it were only the local Sects that took away Li Wan, Emperor Li Sheng would have a way. At the worst, he would just mobilise his army and flatten that Sect.

But if it’s an overseas Major Sect……

Even based on the information which Emperor Li Sheng had learned during this period of time, he knew that there was no shortage of Legends in the overseas Major Sects. If it were not for Su Qin’s deterrent, the Tang Empire would have been suppressed by these Major Sects.

“Your Majesty can rest assured.”

“The Myriad Sword Sect attaches great importance to Princess Li Wan’s Sword Heart Body. At least there would be no concern for her life.”

The Old Taoist comforted Emperor Li Sheng, and then continued to ask the Red-clothed Court Eunuch: “When Princess Li Wan was taken away, did you you reveal your identity?”

“No.” The Red-clothed Court Eunuch shook his head and bitterly replied.

At that time, it all happened extremely quickly. The Red-clothed Court Eunuch didn’t even have time to stop the kidnapper, let alone reveal their identity.

“Hmm.”

Old Taoist thoughtfully continued: “An Old Ancestor of Myriad Sword Sect might not have known that Princess Li Wan is related to Senior (Su Qin). Otherwise, they wouldn’t do such thing.”

The Old Taoist spoke slowly.

Su Qin was a Peak Legend with a Mini Domain. The Myriad Sword Sect would certainly not offend him if there was no valid reason. It was even more impossible for them to just take away a descendant of Su Qin.

Hence, the only possibility was that they didn’t know Li Wan’s identity.

“However, after being here for so long, shouldn’t the Myriad Sword Sect already investigate Princess Li Wan’s identity…?”

The Old Taoist was a little puzzled in this point.

“What should I do now?”

When Emperor Li Sheng heard what the Old Taoist said, he couldn’t help but ask.

“What to do?”

The Old Taoist shook his head slightly and said: “Now, we can only wait.”

The Myriad Sword Sect was an overseas Major Sect. They had many disciples and Ancestors. With the current strength of the Tang Empire, trying to deal with the Myriad Sword Sect was akin to ants trying to shake the sky. It was basically impossible to do.

As for the Old Taoist…

Although he was a Sect Elder, he can’t deter every Sect, let alone the Myriad Sword Sect.

“If Senior is willing to come forward, the Myriad Sword Sect should willingly hand over Princess Li Wan.” The Old Taoist thought. Only Su Qin can force huge monsters, like the Myriad Sword Sect, to bow their heads.

“Third Brother…”

Emperor Li Sheng’s eyes lit up, but it soon dimmed.

Su Qin had been away from the Tang Empire Imperial Palace for several months. Even if Su Qin can really deter the Myriad Sword Sect, such a thought was useless at the moment.

That’s because Su Qin was nowhere to be found.

Just when Emperor Li Sheng and the Su Family sighed, preparing to continue to wait as the Old Taoist said…

“You are looking for me?”

A calm voice suddenly sounded in the Long Life Temple.

When this voice first said the word ‘you’, it seemed to be extremely far away, as if it was beyond a thousand li. But as the sentence progressed, the distance seemed to get closer, especially when the last word ’me’ was said. It seemed to be extremely close.

“Third Brother!”

Emperor Li Sheng suddenly stood up and looked outside the Long Life Temple, full of excitement.

The Su Family and everyone else followed Emperor Li Sheng’s gaze.

Under everyone’s gaze, a slender figure walked in the Long Life Temple when he was just several li away moments ago.
