"Forget it, I'm a man of integrity. If you all lack it, so be it. If you're going to hunt me down, you'd better have the skills."

Qin Yang smiled mockingly and struck the old man in blue robes on the back. The old man coughed up a mouthful of blood, and his figure flew towards the person in purple.

"Kill!"

The person in purple caught the old man in blue robes, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he uttered a single word.

"Yes!"

The group of disciples in white answered in unison.

Qin Yang had anticipated this. He formed a seal with his right hand, and the Spiritual Power in his body condensed into a massive fireball in front of him. The flames roared and emitted waves of heat.

"Great Strength Technique!"

A faint white light emanated from Qin Yang's right palm as he struck the giant fireball. The fiery giant ball flew towards the sky above the Celestial Sword Pavilion.

"Heavenly Fire Scattering, explode!"

A fierce light flashed in Qin Yang's eyes as he shouted.

Boom!!

The fiery giant ball exploded in the sky above the Celestial Sword Pavilion, scattering into a dozen small fireballs, falling like meteors across various parts of the Celestial Sword Pavilion.

In an instant, many areas of the Celestial Sword Pavilion began to catch fire, clearly visible under the night sky.

"Damn it, this brat is creating a fire."

The Sword-wielding Elder cursed angrily. If they all went to chase him, they would return to find the Celestial Sword Pavilion burned down.

"Sword-wielding Elder, follow me to kill this thief, the rest of the disciples, return quickly to put out the fire!"

The person in purple, though usually composed, was now furious and instructed everyone.

"Yes, Pavilion Master!"

The group of disciples in white acknowledged in unison and quickly rushed back.

"Wind Manipulation Technique!"

At this moment, Qin Yang cast the Wind Manipulation Technique on himself, swiftly descending the mountain, and in the blink of an eye, he was already tens of meters away.

"You can't escape."

A chill spread across the person in purple's face as he drew a Silver Light Treasure Sword from his back, condensing Inner Power onto the silver sword.

"Hundred-step Flying Sword, go!"

Whoosh!

The Silver Light Treasure Sword flew at an incredible speed, emanating a sharp Sword Qi that carved several grooves into the hard stone pathway.

In the blink of an eye, it was already close to Qin Yang.

"This old man in purple's Hundred-step Flying Sword is even more powerful than the Sword-wielding Elder."

Qin Yang's expression changed.

"Thunderbolt Flash!"

Qin Yang gritted his teeth, formed a seal with his fingers, and a faint lightning flashed in his eyes.

Swish!

With a slight rumble of thunder, Qin Yang's speed suddenly skyrocketed, dodging the incoming Silver Light Treasure Sword.

"Damn it!"

The person in purple's eyebrows twitched, evidently surprised by Qin Yang's sudden burst of speed.

"Sword-wielding Elder, let's pursue!"

The person in purple shouted to the Sword-wielding Elder beside him.

"You won't catch up."

Qin Yang sneered, snapping his fingers to reveal a dark green Talisman between them.

"Divine Movement Talisman, hasten!"

Without hesitation, Qin Yang slapped the Talisman onto his leg, murmuring softly as a dark green halo instantly wrapped around his legs.

Swish!

Qin Yang's speed surged explosively, his figure like the wind, and in an instant, he was several zhang away, maintaining this high speed as he quickly descended the mountain.

Both the Sword-wielding Elder and the person in purple did not give up easily, mustering their Inner Power to chase him to the mountainside. But gradually, the gap widened, and in the end, they watched helplessly as Qin Yang descended from Celestial Sword Mountain.

"How does this brat maintain such speed continuously?"

The Sword-wielding Elder was frustrated, stopping in his tracks.

"This thief hides too many mysteries. Sword-wielding, you must have noticed that this thief possesses several Talismans only obtainable in Secret Realms and Cave Mansions, and his methods are quite bizarre against enemies."

The person in purple gazed in the direction where Qin Yang disappeared, speaking thoughtfully.

"Pavilion Master, what do you mean?"

The Sword-wielding Elder raised his eyebrows, asking.

"I suspect this brat either accessed a Secret Realm or Cave Mansion or mastered one, thus learning these techniques. Furthermore, his possession of Talismans is easily explained."

In the eyes of the person in purple, a brilliant light sparkled.

"If it is as the Pavilion Master said, then it's likely this Secret Realm or Cave Mansion has yet to be discovered by other Ancient Martial Sects. This is exactly the opportunity for our Celestial Sword Pavilion."

The Sword-wielding Elder's eyes lit up, saying.

"Yes, once we return, instruct the Punishment Hall to thoroughly investigate any information related to this thief."

The person in purple nodded, saying.

With the help of the Divine Movement Talisman, Qin Yang could travel a hundred miles a day without a problem. After descending Celestial Sword Mountain, he took a large detour and arrived at the entrance of Rice Field Village.

The Ferrari was still there, and after coming down from Green Tree Mountain, the dark-skinned man kept watch over it for Qin Yang, as he was grateful to Qin Yang for giving him several thousand RMB.

This was quite unexpected for Qin Yang. In this materialistic era, there were still honest people. After thanking him, Qin Yang drove away from Rice Field Village.

Returning to Ruan Xinxue's apartment, Qin Yang's face was slightly pale, with his Spiritual Power nearly exhausted.

"This trip was quite fruitful; I obtained a total of seven Fire Spirit Fish and a Treasure, the Purple Blood Soft Sword."

Looking at the seven Fire Spirit Fish in the fish tank and the Purple Blood Soft Sword beside him, Qin Yang's tired face showed a trace of joy.

"With these seven Fire Spirit Fish, I can try to break through to Intermediate Immortal Warrior at the right time."

A flicker of brilliance appeared in Qin Yang's eyes as he murmured. In Immortal Cultivation, each level crossed represents a qualitative enhancement in power.

Once reaching Intermediate Immortal Warrior, he could attempt to return to Celestial Sword Pavilion and take control of this Ancient Martial Sect. At that time, whether it's the Spirit Fish Pond or the mysteries of the Secret Realm and Cave Mansion, all would be resolved.

"Now, I must first recover my Spiritual Power, then detoxify the Fire Toad Poison to adjust my state to its peak."

Qin Yang closed his eyes, operating the Nine Revolutions Star Technique to restore the Spiritual Power within him.

On the following morning, warm sunlight streamed in through the window, falling on the side of the youth's face. Slowly, his previously closed eyes opened.

"Phew!"

Qin Yang softly exhaled a breath of white mist, a fleeting brilliance flashing in his eyes.

"My Spiritual Power has been restored. Next, I'll proceed with refining the Ice Lotus Pill to dispel the Fire Toad Poison within me."

Qin Yang whispered. The Seven-leaf Ice Lotus was the primary ingredient, and a few simple auxiliary herbs, which could be found in a normal pharmacy, were also needed.

Qin Yang made a special trip outside to gather them, then used the Purple Jade Pill Furnace upon returning to refine the Ice Lotus Pill. After ingesting and refining it, the Fire Toad Poison in his body was completely eliminated.

The left shoulder, wounded by Sword Qi, had also been treated twice with the Spring Rain Spell by Qin Yang, and the skin was now completely healed.

"Now, the final step is to relax my state of mind. By choosing a night when the sky is full of stars, I can attempt to break through to Intermediate Immortal Warrior."

Qin Yang murmured to himself. With the combined power of the Primordial Spirit Pill, Fire Spirit Fish, and Power of the Stars, there was at least a seventy percent chance of success.

The path of Immortal Cultivation is one of defying the heavens, requiring extraordinary conditions to gain strength, which means Qin Yang must make adequate preparations.
