Martial Master

"That Qin Chen has such audacity, daring to kill the elders and disciples of our Mountains and Rivers Sect. It's simply outrageous! Does he really think that with the protection of the Alchemy Pavilion and the Bloodline Holy Land, he can go against the heavens?"

The master of the Mountains and Rivers Sect was furious, his voice shaking the great hall.

"Master, what should we do now?"

"Send out my order: all disciples of the Mountains and Rivers Sect, immediately set off to the boundary between Xuan Prefecture and the Five Nations to search for Qin Chen. Once there’s any news, act immediately and ensure we find Qin Chen before the Liuxian Sect. Otherwise, we may not have a single chance for revenge."

"Yes."

The many elders of the Mountains and Rivers Sect had cold expressions.

"Remember, upon encountering Qin Chen, do not kill him. It’s imperative to bring him back alive. Even if he can't be brought back, we must obtain the secret techniques he acquired in the Ancient Southern Capital. This person has killed our elders; how can we let him die so easily? We must extract some interest from him." The master of the Mountains and Rivers Sect said coldly.

"Understood!"

Immediately, the master of the Mountains and Rivers Sect led numerous disciples and elders away from the sect, swiftly heading towards the border of the Five Nations.

Not only the Mountains and Rivers Sect, but upon receiving the news, the master of Tian Ying Valley also took immediate action, with nearly all the disciples of Tian Ying Valley mobilizing.

Their goal was simple: not only to deal with Qin Chen but also to seize the secret techniques he obtained from the Ancient Southern Capital ruins.

In fact, they were even glad that these three major powers had the qualifications to deal with Qin Chen.

After all, he was a genius of the Ancient Southern Capital’s first legacy. According to reports, among the twelve individuals who accepted the inheritance, the worst one received a medium-level Earth Grade technique. Given Qin Chen's situation, it was highly likely that what he obtained was a high-level Earth Grade technique, or even one surpassing Earth Grade.

Just the thought of it made them extremely excited.

However, the people from Tian Ying Valley and the Mountains and Rivers Sect were also very clear that to obtain the secret techniques, they must capture Qin Chen before the Liuxian Sect. Otherwise, once Qin Chen fell into the hands of the Liuxian Sect, they would have nothing to do with him, and with their strength, they could not oppose the Liuxian Sect at all.

Although the other major powers of the Great Wei Dynasty had no reason to go after Qin Chen and the others, once the news spread to the Great Wei Dynasty, various factions began to act.

This was a secret technique above medium-level Earth Grade; as long as they could obtain even one, it would be enough for these factions to enter the ranks of the top powers in each state. How could they not be tempted?

Especially since these secret techniques were held by some mere Xuan-level young martial artists, it was akin to a child holding gold bricks in the street, making people envious.

Although the Alchemy Pavilion and the Bloodline Holy Land were strong, they did not believe that the people from the Alchemy Pavilion and the Bloodline Holy Land would always protect this group of young people. Once they caught the opportunity to take one away, their future would be limitless.

As the people from the Great Wei Dynasty were tracking Qin Chen and the others.

In the Five Nations, after leaving Gufeng City, Qin Chen quickly arrived in the mountains outside Gufeng City and called back the Iron Feather Eagle.

The Five Nations were located in a remote northwestern area, separated from the Great Wei Dynasty's Xuan Prefecture by a long stretch of mountains known as the Black Ridge Mountain Range.

In this area, bloodthirsty beasts roamed, and the environment was extremely harsh.

Even the Five Nations, despite investing significant resources to carve out a path, often encountered dangers and attacks from bloodthirsty beasts.
