Almighty Genius

Chapter 1704 - 1360: The Great Grandmaster's Gift

To know that a Level 8 Grandmaster-level Expert is already considered a top master in the Martial World, although there are stronger experts above, they are so distant, it feels unattainable.For the glorious deeds of this martial world elder, both Qin Fang and Song Qingshan are very respectful. They also wish to be as renowned, but unfortunately, today's society rarely offers them such opportunities...

Firstly, there are genuinely not many experts worthy of their action. Compared to Chu Tianji back then, they are not even on the same level, as the further back in time, the more numerous the experts of that era were.

The economic development over these years indeed brought modernity to cities, but severe pollution has made the originally very scarce Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi even more precious, and naturally, the number of experts is becoming fewer and fewer... Moreover, most hide away in remote mountains and forests for cultivation, seldom coming out to do mischief, so they hardly have such instances of revenge and chivalric justice.

Just as Qin Fang and the others were speaking, Chu Tianji, who had finished barbecuing outside, also walked in slowly. His steps were exceptionally steady, and his aura had become elusive.

This is the demeanor of a Great Grandmaster-level Expert. Qin Fang and Song Qingshan felt that powerful aura and couldn't help but have a slight tremor in their hearts.

However, they are not the kind to easily give in, both activated their skills in resistance, especially Qin Fang, who operated his Demonic Divine Art to the extreme. The Blood Explosion Technique also instantly erupted, and his aura rapidly ascended until it reached a threshold of stepping into the Grandmaster level, only then stabilizing.

The disparity between a Grandmaster level and a Great Grandmaster level is akin to that of a Grandmaster Level countering a Grandmaster level. These are completely different realms, not achievable by mere strength or external devices. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on N0velFire.ɴet

Yet with Qin Fang at full power, the pressure he bore was significantly lessened since the gap between the two was not as immense as before.

At least looking at Song Qingshan's appearance at this moment, his originally somewhat dark face was now flushed red, looking somewhat like a crimson-faced Guan Yu.

Compared to Qin Fang, his strength is still slightly weaker, so his situation was a bit worse.

"Hmm…"

But soon, Chu Tianji noticed the abnormality with the two, his gaze surprisingly fell on Qin Fang.

"Interesting…"

With the Demonic Divine Art fully operated, Qin Fang's body was flowing with Demonic Sect Inner Strength. In Chu Tianji's eyes, Qin Fang was now emitting black Demonic Qi all over, resembling a ferocious demon.

Yet Qin Fang's true nature remained intact under the assault of this dense black Demonic Qi, not being eroded or corrupted, which was quite admirable, so much so that Chu Tianji's gaze towards Qin Fang changed.

"Qin Fang, Qingshan, what's wrong with you?"

Though Qin Fang and the others suffered in silence, it didn't go unnoticed by others. Kong Er and Qu Da quickly became curious and asked.

At this moment, Qin Fang and the others dared not speak, for if they did, the breath in their chest would immediately dissipate. Facing such a terrifying aura then, they would likely be severely injured if not dead, whereas holding on offered a shimmer of hope...

So Qin Fang could only wryly smile and shake his head, gritting his teeth and holding out, seemingly unwilling to give up easily...

Qin Fang's speculation was evidently rather reasonable because soon Chu Tianji's aura swiftly retracted, leaving Qin Fang and Song Qingshan drenched in sweat, looking as if they'd been fished out of water.

"You two brats, follow me in..."

However, Chu Tianji seemed to show no sympathy, leaving just a simple remark before leading the way toward the back of the barbecue shop.

Qin Fang and Song Qingshan exchanged a glance, gritted their teeth, got up from the ground, barely managing to stand straight—it was indeed a bit too perilous just now.

From the outside, the barbecue shop seemed ordinary, but upon entering, it felt different, as the kitchen led to the back—a rather nice little courtyard.

Precisely, besides being the back hall of the barbecue shop, it appeared to be the home of Chu Tianji and Bai Bingbing, since Chu Tianji headed straight for the room upon entering the courtyard...

Naturally, Qin Fang and Song Qingshan followed him in. Once inside, they found Chu Tianji sitting there, seemingly waiting for them.

"Senior, you sought us… for something?"

Since everyone was waiting there, Qin Fang respectfully asked, noticing that Chu Tianji evidently did not wish for others to hear their conversation.

At least Kong Er, Qu Da, Wu Jian, and even Chu Tianji's daughter Bai Bingbing were not members of the Martial World, and some things within should naturally remain unknown to them.

"My identity, it's best you don't spread it around; it won't do you any good…"

Chu Tianji nodded, for Qin Fang's courtesy was ample. With him being a martial elder, a certain degree of majesty was permissible, but not excessively so.

Nonetheless, Chu Tianji couldn't help but warn them, as he had been living incognito in Jiangzhou for years without exposure, yet he didn't expect to be recognized by Qin Fang and his companion.

Not wishing for his life to be disturbed, he nudged Qin Fang's duo.

"Yes, Senior…"

Qin Fang and Song Qingshan almost spoke in unison, sounding very respectful and courteous.

"You two youngsters..."

Seeing how Qin Fang's duo reacted, even Chu Tianji couldn't help but chuckle, "Young as you are, you got some schemes... Worry not, since this old man has something to ask of you, I certainly won't let you leave empty-handed!"

As he spoke, Chu Tianji stood up and went into the inner room. Qin Fang and the other stood still, awaiting patiently.

Before long, Chu Tianji came out carrying two wooden boxes from the room.

"These two items are things I seized during my martial exploits in my early years; keeping them for so many years hasn't been of much use, so I might as well give them to you…"

Cavalierly, he handed the wooden boxes to Qin Fang and Song Qingshan, who eagerly opened them.

"This is... Xuanyin Divine Claw?"

Song Qingshan, being the first to receive, opened his box earlier than Qin Fang, and upon seeing the treasure lying quietly within, his eyes widened in disbelief, filled with astonishment.

"Kid, you've got some knowledge. This was taken by me back when I killed the Thirteen Eagles of the Northern Desolate; it was supposed to be six pairs in total, but five pairs were severed by my Qianyu Divine Sword, leaving just this single pair..."

Upon seeing how Song Qingshan recognized the origin of the treasure in the wooden box immediately, Chu Tianji briefly explained, leaving Song Qingshan even more astounded.

The Xuanyin Divine Claw was made of Xuan Yin Stone, one of the Meteoric Irons; however, it's considered inferior compared to other Meteoric Irons, with relatively lower value.

For example, Chu Tianji's Qianyu Divine Sword, although not one of the Ten Great Divine Weapons, is only slightly inferior to them, similar to the Flowing Shadow Divine Sword in Qin Fang's possession, both made using Meteoric Iron...

Who would have thought such a divine object as the Xuanyin Divine Claw could have five pairs severed by Qianyu Divine Sword, leaving just this singular pair... The prowess of Qianyu Divine Sword is evident through this.

"Let me see what's mine…"

Seeing Song Qingshan receiving a claw weapon extremely suitable for him, Qin Fang, with anticipation, hastily opened his wooden box.

"This... This is…"

But like Song Qingshan, when Qin Fang opened his wooden box and saw the item inside, his eyes, like Song Qingshan's, were about to pop out! (To be continued.
