The Revenge of the Reborn Supreme Sovereign-Chapter 140 - 137: Spirit Gathering Array!

A crisp, rhythmic sound emanated from the silver-haired old man’s hands, like a hypnotic interlude. The stampeding beasts abruptly halted their charge. One by one, their heads drooped as they began to sway. Soon after, they turned and slowly walked away. The sound from the silver-haired old man’s hands only stopped once the beasts had completely disappeared from sight, at which point he let out a heavy sigh of relief.

What would have been the fate of these beasts if Qin Fan had decided to act ruthlessly? It would have been an undeniable slaughter!

"It seems there’s a reasonable person here after all! Haha!" Qin Fan said with a light laugh, his hands clasped behind his back as he looked at the silver-haired old man.

"What will it take for you to leave? Name any condition, and as long as it doesn’t involve this place, we will do everything in our power to meet it!" Humiliation washed over the silver-haired old man, and he gritted his teeth in helpless frustration.

"Capital to negotiate? Haha! If I so wished, your fate would be identical to his, and it wouldn’t take the slightest effort!" Qin Fan laughed arrogantly, pointing to the Elder who had died completely, bleeding from his seven orifices. "You have no choice. Live in humiliation or die a glorious death!"

"You... you... you...!" His ancient face flushed crimson with humiliation as he pointed a trembling finger at Qin Fan. The surge of rage sent blood rushing to his heart, and he spewed a mouthful of Essence Blood.

"My patience is limited. I’ll say it again: you have no choice!" Qin Fan’s expression turned cold as he spoke in an icy tone.

"Fine! I... agree!" As he forced out the words with great hesitation, the silver-haired old man seemed to have been drained of all his strength. His voice was faint, and his legs began to tremble.

"Old Ancestor!"

"Old Ancestor!"

"Old Ancestor!"

The other two Elders and the middle-aged man screamed hysterically.

Losing the Heaven and Earth Essence of this cave would be a world-ending disaster for our Training Spirit Clan! Although Qin Fan hadn’t stated his reason for staying for half a month, based on his words, what else besides the Heaven and Earth Essence could possibly interest him?

"Say no more! Let’s go!" The Old Ancestor waved his hand wearily and started to walk past Qin Fan on faltering legs.

"Wait," Qin Fan said suddenly.

The Old Ancestor’s entire body trembled.

Before the old man could speak, Qin Fan pointed to the Elder lying under a nearby tree, who was not yet dead. "Take him with you. If you get him help, he might still live."

"Thank you," the Old Ancestor said, each word feeling like a knife twisting in his heart. Enduring the boundless humiliation, he gestured to the middle-aged man.

The latter quickly ran over and hoisted the injured Elder onto his back. The small group then trailed after the desolate, retreating figure of the Old Ancestor.

After a moment’s thought, Qin Fan couldn’t help but call out, "In half a month, I’ll have a surprise for you!"

Hearing this, the Old Ancestor paused in his tracks. He shook his head with a self-deprecating smile, said nothing more, and slowly departed from the cave.

So, in their eyes, I’ve become a common bandit stealing their nest, huh! Then again, what other explanation is there for my actions? It’s classic bandit behavior.

Forget it. In half a month, you will be thanking me!

With a final murmur, Qin Fan shook his head again. He had changed his mind about letting them take the beasts away precisely because he wanted to offer them a surprise as compensation for borrowing the cave.

Qin Fan knew that once he activated his Spirit Gathering Array, the beasts remaining within the cave’s domain would benefit greatly. Although they wouldn’t get to eat the meat or drink the soup, so to speak, they could at least lick the dregs. Even at the periphery of the Spirit Gathering Array, the frenzied convergence of the purest Spiritual Energy would be enough to raise the rank of these beasts’ Crystal Cores. Ascending to the Fifth Rank was impossible, but reaching the Third or Fourth Rank was likely!

It’s all up to your own Creation now!

A cocky smile touched his lips as Qin Fan closed his eyes. While gathering his energy and concentrating his spirit, his nose and ears twitched, sensing for the focal point of the Spiritual Energy. After three breaths, he moved, walking a mile away before sitting cross-legged under a massive tree. The lashes of his closed eyes trembled incessantly as True Qi surged wildly within his Dantian.

His lips parted, and he shouted, "Cangqiong Vajra Array, arise!" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

As his words fell, the dense forest in a ten-mile radius was suddenly battered as if by a typhoon. Branches whipped about chaotically as dust and fallen leaves were swept up from the ground. They rolled toward the edge of the cave’s domain while, at the same time, an imperceptible wave of energy spread out from Qin Fan’s body, blanketing the entire area!

Immediately after, a faint humming sound arose. The dust and fallen leaves slowly settled. The trees grew still, the wind died down, and everything returned to normal.

A satisfied smile graced Qin Fan’s lips. In his now-serene mind, the Cangqiong Refining Body Decision began to circulate. His body slowly rose into the air, stopping once it reached a height of three meters.

"Three Pure Ones Spirit Summoning Array, arise!" His eyes snapped open. Qin Fan clasped his hands together, crossed his ring and little fingers, pointed his thumb, index, and middle fingers to the east, and bellowed!

BOOM!

The instant his voice faded, three massive bolts of lightning appeared without warning in the sky above Shennongjia. The sight stunned countless onlookers as the bolts struck down in the direction he pointed, towards his cave. Within the area struck by lightning, all the trees were instantly charred and toppled, releasing rising wisps of azure mist.

As the pillar of lightning struck, Qin Fan’s body, still suspended three meters in the air, suddenly rotated to face south.

"Three Pure Ones Spirit Awakening Array, arise!" Forming the same hand seal and pointing forward, Qin Fan shouted again.

RUSTLE!

To the south, in the direction he pointed, the leaves of countless giant trees suddenly lifted into the air as if by magic. In a perfectly orderly sequence, they flew a kilometer into the sky before scattering in every direction. In the southern part of the cave’s domain, wisps of ethereal azure gas began to swirl and circulate.

"Three Pure Ones Spirit Formation, arise!" His body turned again, and with another sweep of his hands, he pointed west.

BOOM! RUMBLE!

A scene the likes of which the world had never seen began to unfold. Amidst a localized rumble of thunder, Auspicious Dew descended from the sky. Bizarrely, the rain was confined to a one-hundred-meter radius. The raindrops, far larger and denser than normal, fell only upon the western side of the cave. Above, azure wisps of mist surged back and forth, as if conjured from nothing.

With his final turn and gesture, he shouted, "Three Pure Ones Assistance Spirit Array, arise!"

A fierce wind immediately began to blow in the outside world. Yet, the raging gales seemed to be under his complete control, converging from all four directions and sweeping into the northern side of the cave.

With the four supporting formations initiated, Qin Fan smiled, content. He took a long, deep breath. He then sealed his breath, and the boundless True Qi within his Dantian came to a sudden halt. After three breaths, his clasped hands abruptly shot outwards. The suppressed True Qi within him was unleashed in a wild, unrestrained torrent as he shouted!

"Spirit Gathering Array, ARISE!!!"
