Alchemy Master

Chapter 410, I’m Just an Ordinary Person

Translator: Silavin

As time passed, more and more people found various Martial Arts Cultivation Techniques and rare Pill Formulas from the ancient palace complex.

It seemed this place was being opened for the first time, and the items inside were more abundant than anyone had anticipated.

Many powerful experts were ecstatic.

This situation inevitably spread like a plague.

More and more Martial Kings entered this place.

Of course, numerous Martial Kings also fell at the entrance to the core area, turning to dust.

Qin Yichen followed behind the mysterious woman and entered a dim palace.

This palace remained intact, and the facilities inside had not suffered much damage, though the light inside was very dim.

Upon entering, Qin Yichen felt something unusual.

Because inside, he seemed unable to sense the aura of the Sealing Array anymore.

However, just as he had half his body in the dim palace, he felt a cold aura envelop him, causing his body to stiffen.

At the same time, a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

He thought he had concealed himself well, and even a Peak Stage Martial King might not be able to sense his presence.

But he had overlooked one point, the most important point… the person before him was no ordinary person!

She was a Heavenly Martial Artist!

At this moment, Qin Yichen finally saw her face.

Willow brows and phoenix eyes, jade skin with snow-white complexion. There was a dignified air between her brows, without any trace of weakness. Even dressed in plain clothes, she still resembled a fairy.

Being at close distance, Qin Yichen could sense that she was controlling her aura to prevent it from leaking out.

[Where did such a monster come from…] Qin Yichen rubbed his nose bridge, only able to smile bitterly. He had not expected to be caught by her. Moreover, this was because her strength surpassed his own.

“Who are you?” The woman’s voice was very cold, and she stared at Qin Yichen vigilantly.

In fact, her heart was quite unsettled.

This seemingly unremarkable person had followed her all the way here, and she had not noticed him until now – how terrifying was that?

If not for the faint sound the door made when he entered, she probably would not have discovered him at all!

“An ordinary person.” Qin Yichen blinked innocently, with a naive expression, trying hard to present the image of a harmless pure young man.

He was already trying his best. But, like that would have any effect.

“Hmph!” With a cold snort, the aura and temperament of the woman changed drastically. A powerful aura that was difficult to describe with words suddenly erupted from her seemingly unremarkable body.

Like a mountain collapse, like a tsunami, her momentum was magnificent and Soul-stirring. She was like a celestial maiden from the Nine Heavens, looking down upon all beings.

Her eyes were indifferent and cold, devoid of emotion, as if about to pronounce judgment on Qin Yichen.

Just her aura alone made Qin Yichen feel as if a mountain was pressing down on him, making even breathing extremely difficult.

[Strong! Strong beyond imagination! So, this is what it means to be a Heavenly Martial Artist!]

Moreover, Qin Yichen believed that the woman before him was still holding back.

Perhaps even if he used his True Dragon Martial Soul, he would not be able to contend with her.

After all, regarding the use of the True Dragon Martial Soul and the advantages of Heavenly Martial Artists, Qin Yichen only understood one part of each and was confused about the other. He was merely at the level of being able to use it.

In Qin Yichen’s previous life, all his time and energy was focused on the Dao of Alchemy. Regarding the Path of Martial Cultivation, he had not delved too deeply since he could not personally cultivate with it.

Perhaps in small kingdoms, Grand Empires, or even in the region of the Three Sects and One Manor, his insights into Martial Arts cultivation would be considered excellent, with few able to compare.

However, before this woman, Qin Yichen’s shortcomings were completely exposed.

It was precisely her appearance that made Qin Yichen realise this point.

Fortunately, his Physique was far from weak, and he had Spiritual Energy supporting him, resisting the pressure from her. Otherwise, he absolutely would not have been able to stand.

“Look, I… I really… have no… malicious intent…” Qin Yichen tried to explain with great difficulty, but even opening his mouth became extremely difficult for him.

He just did not understand. Up to now, he had not made any improper or disrespectful actions toward this woman, so why did she harbour such hostility toward him?

Not long ago, Qiu Jizhuo had insulted her, yet she had merely intimidated him.

So, why was the difference so great when she was dealing with him?

Qin Yichen could not figure it out.

“Oh?” Seeing that he could still speak under her pressure, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes.

However, following that was an even stronger aura. Immediately, Qin Yichen let out a muffled groan. Although he was still standing, his bones made a teeth-grinding sound.

[Damn it…] Qin Yichen wanted to curse, but at this moment, he could not even speak words of anger. He could only glare at her, expressing his dissatisfaction.

“Who sent you here, and what are your intentions?” The woman coldly questioned. Her voice was like winter, though not loud, it exploded like thunder in Qin Yichen’s mind.

“I…” Qin Yichen could not even explain himself.

But soon, he thought of the reason.

He had already shown himself to be excessively powerful, which had aroused her suspicion.

[What exactly is she doing here?] Qin Yichen felt that this woman seemed very familiar with this place. He always felt that the passage leading here seemed to have been opened by this woman. Others, including himself, probably would not have had this ability.

Perhaps, given enough time, he could find some clues, but it would be impossible to do so in just a few days.

“Do I need to force you to reveal your true form?” Then, from the woman’s mouth came another bewildering statement.

[Does she think I’m not Human?] Qin Yichen finally understood.

But this was also normal. She was a Heavenly Martial Artist, and it was possible that Foreign Races were following or even hunting her.

However, which part of him resembled a Foreign Race?

“Do whatever you want.” Qin Yichen simply lay down on the ground, giving up resistance.

He could sense that this woman had no killing intent, or rather, she would not kill him before confirming whether he was of a Foreign Race.

*Swish!* Just as he lay down, a sharp energy brushed across his face, immediately leaving a bloody mark. Fresh red blood flowed out.

“A Human…” The woman was surprised, and the aura on her body gradually calmed down.

No matter how well disguised, the blood of those from Foreign Races could never be faked.
