Chapter 692 They're just worthless things.
At this critical juncture of life and death, Qin Changqing displayed his powerful will to survive, which was driven out by his "persecution complex."
One second Qin Changqing was frozen in place, so nervous he was about to collapse, but the next second, the fear and vigilance on his face vanished like a tide, replaced by an unparalleled excitement.
"thump!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Qin Changqing slammed his knees heavily onto the hard floor of the wooden house, producing a crisp, muffled thud.
He stretched out his arms and pressed his entire upper body to the ground, bowing deeply to Lin Hanzhou in a standard prostration.
"Master, I, Qin Changqing, pay my respects!"
Qin Changqing's voice was loud and full of emotion, even with a slight tremor, like a poor child who had struggled in the darkness for countless years and finally saw the light of the savior.
"I am deeply grateful to my master for recognizing my talent and for not abandoning me despite my dullness!"
"This disciple is willing to become a disciple of Master, and from now on, I will serve you with utmost devotion, even unto fire and water, and go through fire and water for you!"
boom! boom! boom!
He kowtowed three times in a row, each kowtow landing with such force that it left several tiny cracks in the floor of the wooden house.
It wasn't that Qin Changqing was born with a penchant for groveling, nor did he genuinely harbor any deep admiration for Lin Hanzhou.
The main reason was that the other party's cultivation level was unfathomable, reaching a terrifying level that he could not comprehend.
Since the other party had said they wanted to take him as a disciple, although their tone was gentle, under such absolute power, they left him no room to refuse.
He has no choice but to agree!
Since there's no way to resist either way, why not just agree decisively and gracefully?
What if the other party is a dark sovereign with an eccentric personality? If I hesitate for even half a second and displease the other party, he might just swallow my immortal body as a elixir for alchemy. Who would he complain to then?
Therefore, taking a master as a disciple to ensure his safety was Qin Changqing's only option.
Looking at his disciple, whose expression changed faster than flipping through a book, Lin Hanzhou's deep eyes flashed with an undisguised smile.
"Okay, okay, okay!"
Lin Hanzhou said "good" three times in a row, his tone revealing undisguised admiration.
He slightly raised his hand, and a gentle yet irresistible invisible force of law lifted Qin Changqing, who was kneeling on the ground, up steadily.
"Good disciple, now that you have joined my sect, your master will naturally not treat you unfairly."
Lin Hanzhou casually waved his sleeve.
A barely perceptible ripple appeared in mid-air, and then a ring with a dark purple-gold hue floated quietly in front of Qin Changqing.
"Since it's our first meeting, I didn't prepare anything special."
"Consider this a small gift from your master to you. Use it for self-defense and cultivation."
Qin Changqing respectfully extended both hands and carefully held the dark purple-gold spatial ring in his palms.
The moment his fingers touched the ring, he could clearly feel that the ring was made of extraordinary material, and there was even a trace of the extreme pressure that made his soul tremble.
"Gurgle..."
Qin Changqing swallowed hard, took a deep breath, and then carefully sent out a wisp of his divine sense into the inner space of the spatial ring.
I only glanced at it once.
boom!
Qin Changqing's eyes widened to their limit, his eyeballs almost bulging out, and his mouth opened wide enough to fit a grown duck egg.
What did he see?
Within the ring's vast interior space, which resembled a small world, there were no miscellaneous items, only terrifyingly categorized and piled-up resources:
Top-grade spirit stones, piled up like mountains: They weren't counted by the stone or by the kilogram, but were directly piled up into continuous, undulating mountain ranges!
Each spirit stone is crystal clear, radiating the richest spiritual energy of heaven and earth, like stars fallen from the heavens to the mortal world.
In another area, various high-quality natural treasures that have long been extinct in the outside world are planted.
There are Dragon Pattern Blood Ginseng that exudes the aura of a true dragon, Fire Fusion Spirit Fruit that condenses the laws of fire, and Nine Aperture Exquisite Fruit whose entire body is filled with Dao runes.
Each one of these plants, if taken out, would be enough to ignite a bloody war in the cultivation world.
Dozens of radiant magical artifacts floated in mid-air.
Knives, spears, swords, halberds, bells, tripods, pagodas, seals—everything imaginable was available.
Each magical artifact was imbued with complete and powerful sacred laws; these were none other than dozens of genuine legendary sacred weapons!
What terrified Qin Changqing the most was that three weapons were quietly suspended in the deepest part of the ring space.
A jet-black halberd, an ancient shield engraved with the Xuanwu totem, and a treasure gourd swirling with chaotic energy.
These three weapons exuded a terrifying imperial might that was infinitely close to the ultimate realm!
Quasi-Emperor Weapons! These are actually three quasi-Emperor Weapons powerful enough to suppress the foundation of an entire star field!
Qin Changqing's hands, which were holding the ring, began to tremble violently.
Before this, he had a slight uncertainty in his heart, wondering whether his newly recognized master was a quasi-emperor or an unattainable being above quasi-emperor.
But now, through this storage ring, Qin Changqing no longer had any doubts.
He was absolutely certain that his master was either a Great Emperor or a Supreme Being!
Aside from such supreme beings standing at the very top of the cosmic food chain, who could casually give away quasi-emperor weapons and legendary holy weapons like cabbages?!
"Master...Master..."
Qin Changqing's voice was trembling. He suppressed the urge to accept the ring, raised it high with both hands, and tried to refuse it with a look of fear on his face.
"This...this is far too precious! This disciple is of limited knowledge and has accomplished nothing; how dare I accept such an extraordinary gift from Master?"
"Please, Master, rescind your order. I am unworthy to receive it!"
Qin Changqing was genuinely frightened.
Nothing is free in this world.
The fact that the other party gave away such a huge sum of money upon their first meeting made him feel uneasy, as the underlying cause and effect was so profound.
However, in the face of Qin Changqing's refusal, Lin Hanzhou simply waved his hand dismissively, his expression revealing a nonchalant and carefree attitude.
"Take these. To me, they are nothing but worthless things."
"Since you are a Holy Body, your future cultivation path will be extremely demanding. How can you manage without sufficient resources? Just take it as I tell you, don't be so hesitant."
