Chapter 396

　　Wei Zhongzheng and his group did not encounter any attacks along the way and they very smoothly returned to the Nine Extinction Gate.

　　Halfway through his journey, Jiang Dazhu said that he had matters to attend to and left. He did not accompany Qin Yun and company back to the Nine Extinctions Sect. He had also transferred the Heavenly Fire Martial King into the Dragon Suppression Cauldron.

　　Qin Yun followed Wei Zhongzheng back to the Nine Extinction Profound Gate and was brought to a secret chamber.

　　After Wei Zhongzheng entered the secret room, he quickly said, “Xiao Yun, what happened to the dao cores in your body? In your heart, there is another Martial Spirit! Your dual martial spirits are not lightning and fire!”

　　“Moreover, your Thunder Flame Martial Spirit is on your arm! The Martial Spirit in your dantian is even stranger!”

　　In the past few days, Qin Yun knew that Wei Zhongzheng was trustworthy.

　　Therefore, he didn’t hide anything and said, “My heart possesses a black vibration martial spirit. In my dantian is an extremely strange Nether sun martial spirit. In short, I started cultivating in a daze.”

　　When Wei Zhongzheng heard this, he was shocked speechless.

　　After a moment, he said, “The Nether Sun Martial Spirit? This is a very mysterious Martial Spirit and there are only a few records about it.”

　　“You have three Martial Spirits coexisting in your body and you even cultivated three Dao cores. This is indeed not easy! This will definitely require a lot of resources!”

　　“Headmaster, if I continue to cultivate like this, will there be any other problems?” Qin Yun asked with concern.

　　Wei Zhongzheng said, “I don’t know about anything else but with your black martial spirit, it will be very difficult for you to break through to the third level of the Martial Dao Realm!”

　　“Why?” Qin Yun frowned. “Isn’t the martial dao realm the path of life? How did it get connected to the Martial Spirit?”

　　Wei Zhongzheng said, “The third stage of the Martial Dao Realm is to cultivate the third life mark!”

　　“If you want to cultivate the third life mark, then you must let your Martial Spirit evolve! The evolution of the purple gold martial spirit is still alright but for a black martial spirit to evolve, it’s even more difficult!”

　　Qin Yun asked anxiously, “Why do you say that? Evolving, was it to change the color of one’s martial spirit? My martial spirit is black, does that mean I have reached the pinnacle and am unable to evolve, thus making it impossible for me to cultivate my third life mark?”

　　Wei Zhongzheng shook his head and said, “Evolution is not changing colors! The evolution of changing colors is something that only a few people can achieve!”

　　“A normal evolution is when one’s martial spirit goes through dual attribute evolution! Or the evolution by strengthening the Martial Spirit! ”

　　“For example, after evolving the Thunder Martial Spirit, it became the Wind and Thunder Martial Spirit!”

　　“If you’re lucky, then you can turn into a dual martial spirit or change color. However, this is very rare!”

　　“The most common way is to evolve with two attributes!”

　　Qin Yun now understood why most high level martial practitioners had dual attribute martial spirits.

　　Wei Zhongzheng said, “If you originally have a dual attribute martial spirit, then when your martial spirit evolved, it would only strengthen your martial spirit and deepen the color of your martial spirit!”

　　“So you’re saying, since my Vibration Martial Spirit and the Nether Sun Martial Spirit are both black, it’s hard to evolve?” Qin Yun said with concern.

　　“Yes! The third life mark is formed when the Martial Spirit evolved!”

　　Wei Zhongzheng nodded his head: “There have been martial artists with black martial spirits who died at the second level of the Martial Dao Realm due to their difficulty in evolving!”

　　Qin Yun’s heart leaped as he said, “Sect Master, don’t scare me!”

　　Wei Zhongzheng said with a solemn face: “I’m not trying to scare you! But don’t worry, I’ll go around and find out if there are any success stories! During this period of time, you can try it yourself and see if you can break through!”

　　“If you manage to cultivate the second life mark and condense the martial spirit’s attribute dao power, then use the attribute dao power to nurture your martial spirit until it evolves!”

　　Qin Yun nodded. “It might require a large amount of resources!”

　　“It is indeed not easy for you to cultivate three Dao cores! Moreover, to be able to cultivate to such a level at such a young age, it’s a miracle! Don’t worry, I will support you too!”

　　“I think you can continue to create miracles in the future!” Wei Zhongzheng suddenly laughed: “Maybe I was worried too much. After all, I can’t use common sense to judge your situation!”

　　“Oh right, Sect Leader, let’s deal with this fellow now!” Qin Yun took out the Heavenly Lion Dragon Suppression Cauldron and opened the lid.

　　The Heavenly Fire Martial King, who was severely injured, was tied up by Wei Zhongzheng’s fire whip and was unable to move.

　　Wei Zhongzheng: “Xiao Yun, since you told me not to kill him, what are you going to do?”

　　“You guys will die a horrible death!” The Heavenly fire Martial King roared furiously.

　　“Sect Leader, I can extract another person’s martial spirit. However, I have never extracted from a Martial King, so I want you to stand by my side and watch. If something goes wrong, you can help me out in time!” Qin Yun said with a smile.

　　When Wei Zhongzheng and the Heavenly Fire Martial King heard this, they were astounded.

　　“Great!” Wei Zhongzheng laughed.

　　“Qin Yun…You beast!!! you can’t extract my martial spirit, you….this is a violation of the martial dao!” Heavenly Fire Martial King shouted in fear.

　　“You’ve killed so many people from the Nine Extinction Gate and you’ve also extracted the totems of others for the Totem Tower. Is this not against the rules of the Grand Dao?” Wei Zhongzheng smiled coldly and said to Qin Yun, “Little Yun, you can begin!”

　　Qin Yun placed his hand on the Heavenly Fire Martial King’s abdomen and whispered, “I wonder what his martial spirit is. It should be very powerful, right?”

　　“Little bastard, I’m going to eat you alive!” The Heavenly Fire Martial King was enraged as he roared.

　　Qin Yun frowned as he used Soul Extraction. Suddenly, he felt that he did not have enough strength.

　　“Sect master, help me! I need energy!” Qin Yun immediately shouted.

　　Wei Zhongzheng hurriedly placed his hand on Qin Yun’s back and infused the immense strength of a Martial King!

　　“AHHHHHHHHH!!!!

　　Not long later, Qin Yun, who was sweating profusely, pulled out a purplish-gold pearl from the belly of Heavenly Flame Martial King!

　　The pearl was surrounded by purplish-gold flames and from time to time, it would flicker with a strong flame.

　　The moment the bead appeared, the temperature in the chamber suddenly rose. It became extremely hot!

　　“It’s the Purple Gold Mars martial spirit! He cultivated his martial spirit into a star, condensing it into a small star!” Wei Zhongzheng chuckled, “Xiao Yun, what do you plan on doing with this Martial Spirit?”

　　The Heavenly fire Martial King lying inside the Dragon Cauldron had a pale face and a face full of death. He was on the verge of dying.

　　The Heavenly fire Martial King felt extremely stifled in his heart. He, a dignified Martial King, had been tormented to such an extent. He was stifling a wave of resentment within his heart.

　　“I plan to absorb this Martial Spirit!” As Qin Yun spoke, he placed it on his abdomen for the Nethersun martial spirit to absorb.

　　The Nether Sun Martial Spirit had the strongest absorption power and it was also a bottomless pit. It needed a large amount of energy to make it stronger.

　　“Then you have to be careful, don’t let anything go wrong!” Wei Zhongzheng patted Qin Yun’s shoulder and said, “I’ll take this fellow out and show him to the disciples to boost their confidence!”

　　Qin Yun remained in the secret chamber as he circulated the Nine Extinction Heart Sutra to refine the martial spirit that had been devoured.

　　He learned the art of soul refining. He could extract a martial spirit and he could also fuse his martial spirits with other martial spirits. This would allow his martial spirit to quickly become stronger.

　　Therefore, he felt that it wouldn’t be a problem to evolve his three Martial Spirits. At most, it would just take a little more time.

　　“The third level of the Martial Dao Realm can allow the Martial Spirit to evolve once! I wonder what will happen after my three Martial Spirits evolve? ” Qin Yun was secretly looking forward to it.

　　Qin Yun closed up for more than ten days before he finished digesting the Heavenly Fire Martial King’s martial spirit.

　　He walked out of the secret room and hurried to the medicine garden.

　　At noon, Yuan Yanying was controlling the formation and summoning the Rainbow Spirit Rain, watering the spirit medicine.

　　“Yanying!” Qin Yun hurriedly walked over and said with a chuckle, “I just happen to want to take a bath!”

　　As he spoke, he entered the rainbow-colored spirit rain and let the rain wash over him.

　　Yuan Yanying gently laughed: “Big brother, our Nine Extinction Profound Gate is finally not the weakest Xuan Rank sect! Once you joined our Nine Ultimate Heavenly Profound Gate, we were elevated upwards! You really are the lucky star of the Nine Extinction Profound Gate!”

　　“Yanying, with the help of this formation, you aren’t that tired, are you?” Qin Yun said with a smile.

　　“Mm, I can spare a lot of time to cultivate! I also need to become stronger as soon as possible!” Yuan Yanying nodded.

　　Not long after, the Nine-colored Spirit Rain stopped as well and the medicinal garden was filled with multicolored clouds.

　　Dressed in a plain white dress, Yuan Yanying also flew into the medicinal field, like a happy butterfly; lively, beautiful and enchanting!

　　Qin Yun had also absorbed the energy of the Nine Colored Spirit Rain earlier and had become very energetic. He returned to his room to change into a set of clean blue clothes. When he arrived outside the building, he saw Second Elder there.

　　“Xiao Yun, there’s a masked woman looking for you outside!” When the Second Elder saw Qin Yun come out, he hurriedly said.

　　“Could it be the Ninth Princess, Hong Mengshu?” Yuan Yanying laughed out, “Big brother, according to the legends, Princess Mengshu was completely captivated by you!”

　　Qin Yun pinched Yuan Yanying’s face. “Yanying, don’t spout nonsense! We’re just good friends!”

　　He looked at the Second Elder and asked, “Did that woman say her name?”

　　“She didn’t say! However, she gave me a small bottle and said that as long as you open it, you will know who she is!” The Second Elder shrugged and said, “It seems like this woman is trying to conceal her identity!”

　　Qin Yun took the bottle and opened it. Immediately, he sensed an aura of the Purple Immortal Dew. It had a faint fragrance to it. It was the Purple Immortal Dew of Zi Qingcheng!

　　“Second Elder, can you let that woman in?” Qin Yun asked softly.

　　“If it’s really worth your trust, then of course she can come in!” The Second Elder laughed, “Xiao Yun, I didn’t think that a woman would come looking for you so quickly!”

　　Yuan Yanying smiled sweetly, “Who asked my Brother Yun to be so charming? That’s normal!”

　　Qin Yun also wanted to see Zi Qingcheng and ask her about matters regarding Xiao Yuelan and company.

　　Ever since they parted ways within the Cloud Dragon Mountain Range, he had always wanted to know about the situation with Xiao Yuelan, Yang Shiyue and the others.

　　He only knew that Xiao Yuelan was in the Moon Profound Valley.

　　After the Second Elder left, Yuan Yanying asked curiously, “Brother, who is that woman? Is it Big Sister Shiyue or Big Sister Yuelan?”

　　“A fat woman, with a face like a bun! If everything goes well, I will get her to bring my disciple here and then, my disciple will be able to accompany you in your cultivation!” Qin Yun said with a smile.

　　“Disciple?” Yuan Yanying widened her eyes in surprise, “Brother, when did you accept a disciple?”
