Special Expert of Beauty CEO

”Master, Qiuniang is also at the Qi Refining Middle Stage, just about the same as you.”

Du Qiuniang walked up to Qin Tian, looking at him with a mischievous smile, ”But, Master, your striking speed is indeed a bit slow, although you have plenty of strength. Moreover, Qiuniang uses silver needles to kill, while you kill blow by blow, so of course, Qiuniang is faster than you.”

”What about the Invisibility Technique? I saw you disappear into thin air just now.”

Qin Tian asked, having seen Du Qiuniang vanish suddenly, which was starkly different from Qin Tian’s speed-based movement technique that made him seem invisible. Qin Tian saw clearly—Du Qiuniang simply vanished!

”I did practice the Invisibility Technique, Master,” Du Qiuniang replied.

”Hiss!”

Qin Tian was stunned, ”Is there really such a thing as an Invisibility Technique in this world? How did you learn it?”

”Master, once our Phoenix Clan’s seal was lifted, we were able to practice the Invisibility Technique.”

”Are you saying that only members of the Phoenix Clan can learn the Invisibility Technique?”

”Yes, at least that’s what Qiuniang knows. However, Qiuniang has only learned the basics for now and can only stay invisible for about fifteen seconds, and it can only be supported once a day with my current spiritual power. But, when my cultivation level improves in the future, I am confident I should be able to stay invisible for longer periods.”

Listening to Du Qiuniang’s explanation, Qin Tian nodded in astonishment, ”Phoenix Clan, Invisibility Technique, lifting that seal was really a great gain...”

”So, Qiuniang’s life belongs to the master, death as the master’s ghost. This is the destiny of our Phoenix Clan.”

Du Qiuniang came closer, holding Qin Tian’s arm, looking utterly innocent, giving no hint that she had just killed over thirty experts in half an hour.

Qin Tian nodded, and the two continued on their way, but Qin Tian was also pondering, ”I am also from one of the mysterious races. The Phoenix Clan has so many magical traits; what traits does my Dragon Flame Clan have? Hiss... So far, I don’t seem to have discovered any.”

The two got on a road five kilometers away from the Heavenly Pool. By this time, the crowd was gradually growing, including ordinary people and immortality cultivators, all with serious faces, hurrying to the Heavenly Pool.

It was evident that these people, carrying luggage, were well-prepared to leave Earth and head to the Spiritual Domain for treasures.

”There, Master, is the Heavenly Pool. The Spiritual Origin Transmission Array is right at the center of the Heavenly Pool.”

Minutes later, the two arrived at a dead volcano’s crater, where Du Qiuniang pointed to a stone platform in the center of the pool, saying.

Qin Tian sped up his pace towards it—the Heavenly Pool looked like a massive lake, with clear water.

And in the very center of the Heavenly Pool was indeed a raised circular stone platform, looking about twenty to thirty square meters in size, directly protruding from the water by about three to four meters high.

Right in the center of that circular stone platform was the Transmission Array that Du Qiuniang mentioned.

There were no stairs around the Transmission Array, but because there were a lot of visitors throughout the year, wooden ladders were erected around the stone platform to facilitate climbing for transmission.

At this time, Qin Tian observed immortality cultivators stepping on the water, directly flying towards the Transmission Array, while ordinary martial artists swam in the Heavenly Pool, struggling to get to the Transmission Array.

Qin Tian quietly watched as, in half an hour, three immortality cultivators had already stepped onto the Transmission Array.

However, those three stood at the center for about ten minutes without any reaction from the Transmission Array, each of them shook their heads, sighed, and left disappointedly.

”If a fated person stands at the center of the Transmission Array, it should activate in about two minutes. They stood for over ten minutes with no response, so, there’s no hope for them to be transmitted.”

Du Qiuniang gazed at the lake-centered Transmission Array and said.

”Has anyone ever succeeded? I mean, on Earth, over the years, has anyone been transmitted through the Spiritual Origin to elsewhere?” Qin Tian, with an equally sullen gaze, asked.

Du Qiuniang said, ”Yes, generally, there is a lucky one every one or two years. I remember, about ten years ago, a family of three went for a test, and all three were transmitted to the Spiritual Domain—that seems to be the luckiest case I know of, and that year, five people were transmitted to the Spiritual Domain.”

As Du Qiuniang spoke, she looked at Qin Tian, ”However, they never came back after going to the Spiritual Domain,” her voice tinged with a sense of reluctance.

”Seems like the Spiritual Origin Transmission truly relies on fate.”

In their conversation, Qin Tian saw two more people walking dejectedly from the Transmission Array, shaking their heads in bitter smiles.

Du Qiuniang looked at Qin Tian and asked, ”Master, do you want to take a look at the Transmission Array in the center of the lake?”

Qin Tian shook his head, ”No, one day, I will stand at the center of that Transmission Array. But, not now.”

Qin Tian met Du Qiuniang’s gaze, and she also stared at Qin Tian, her eyes gentle, ”When the time comes, Qiuniang will stand up there with you.”

The two stayed at the Heavenly Pool for an hour, during which they saw seven people step onto the Transmission Array, but none succeeded in transmission.

By around two in the afternoon, Qin Tian and Du Qiuniang decided to return home.

Returning to the Du Family, Qin Tian stayed for another day, worrying something might happen in Huaxia, he had to go back.

Du Qiuniang bid farewell to the Du Family members and set off with Qin Tian to Huaxia.

On the way back, Du Qiuniang was more familiar with the path than Qin Tian.

Under her guidance, the two managed to exit the Plains Mountain within a day and headed towards the nearest town located in the southeastern part of the Siberian Forest.

From that town, they could make their way back to Huaxia by transferring buses three times.

As soon as his phone had signal, Qin Tian immediately dialed Zhou Yang.

”Old Zhou, what’s the situation over there, the Skull side, any movements?”

”Boss... it’s over... we’re done for!”

Hearing these words from Zhou Yang, Qin Tian’s heart sank.

”Old Zhou, explain carefully.”

”Boss, after you left, the Skull people searched everywhere for us—they know our hideout now. They’ve already sent several assassins to kill us, but our military friends guard tightly, being in a military camp, they’ve all failed.”

Qin Tian let out a breath, relieved that no one was hurt, and said, ”Then why did you say it’s over?”

”Our operation, the War Dragon, suffered heavy losses this time...”

Zhou Yang explained, ”Since they couldn’t find us, they targeted our businesses to lure us out. What I know is that the Qin Group’s headquarters building was burned, it’s basically paralyzed!”

”The Qin Pharmaceutical’s experimental and office buildings were burned, making them unusable too!”

”And... the luxury estate in Beijing that used to belong to the Ye Family, it was also burned down... Boss, do you know who burned that estate? It was him!”
