Qin Zi was greatly shocked upon hearing this.
He carefully analyzed what the other party said and found no flaws, so he no longer doubted it.
"Senior, which way should I go now?"
He asked tentatively.
He hoped that this unfathomable senior could give him a little bit of help.
However, there was no response.
Still, there was no response.
Suddenly, he understood that the other party would really not intervene unless a Quasi-Emperor took action, just as they said.
He sighed and flew in a sideways direction because, after multiple attempts, he already knew that there were many powerful Demon Emperors blocking the Purple Cloud Domain direction, waiting for him to walk into the trap.
In the sky, Qin Chuan smiled.
So far, the plan was going smoothly, and everything was under control.
Especially after fabricating the lie about the Sun-devouring Imperial Palace, his actions seemed even more justified.
He used an intimidating pressure to steer Qin Zi in the direction he wanted, much like a shepherd dog herding sheep.
In fact, he was fishing.
To be precise, he was fishing for Quasi-Emperors!
Apart from Quasi-Emperors, any Emperor level would not be able to appear before Qin Zi, because as long as they got within a thousand miles, he would directly annihilate them.
Of course, he would deliberately allow some small fry in to give Qin Zi some minor troubles.
Because only by constantly being in trouble would he not overthink, would he not wonder—why is everything going so smoothly?
That way, Qin Zi could proceed with surprises but without danger, heading towards the area where Quasi-Emperors reside.
How did Qin Chuan know where the Quasi-Emperors were?
Because he had a map!
As an Elder of the Purple Cloud Academy, with great effort, acquiring a map of the Broken Star Demon Realm was quite simple.
He basically had a good sense of the geographic distribution of the Broken Star Demon Realm, where the major forces were, and where the Great Demons were lurking...
As long as a Quasi-Emperor came out to hunt Qin Zi.
His cultivation would immediately improve on the spot, then he would annihilate the opponent and continue driving Qin Zi forward... If everything went as expected, using this method, he could sweep through the entire Broken Star Demon Realm.
Of course, after a few Quasi-Emperors fell, the other Quasi-Emperors would probably surmise that a powerful protector was secretly guarding Qin Zi, and they wouldn’t take action.
They wouldn’t send themselves to die so easily.
Therefore, he roughly estimated that this journey through the Broken Star Demon Realm should be able to increase his cultivation to around the fourth or fifth Heavenly Layer of Quasi-Emperor.
"Hehe, Sun-devouring Imperial Palace divine son candidate... By then, Qin Xiaozhu might believe he passed the Imperial Palace’s test, full of vigor as he goes to compete for the position of divine son, that walking into the trap scene... I dare not imagine."
He seemed to see Qin Zi being lifted by two strong figures of the Sun-devouring Imperial Palace on both sides, turning and shouting, "Let me go, I am the divine son candidate! I am here to participate in the divine son competition!!"
Alas, it’s all to temper the son.
His intentions are good...
Time passed, three days went by.
During these three days, Qin Zi encountered several waves of small fry, the so-called young talents of the Demon Realm, and even met a few disciples from the Shattered Star Academy, but they were all slain by Qin Zi.
Because they heard Qin Zi had killed many emperors, they were all in a desperate state, with no arrogance or pretentiousness.
So killing them didn’t increase the "Father Show-off" value.
The system stipulates that there must be situations where the opponent despises Qin Zi, shows off in front of him, and then is humiliated, to gain "Father Show-off" value.
Currently, his Father Show-off value is still 108.6.
Originally, after humiliating Lu Cheng, it reached 138.6, but purchasing the Invisibility Cloak cost 30 points, leaving this much.
And that day, another Quasi-Emperor descended, a second Heavenly Layer Quasi-Emperor, wasted no words and directly attacked.
Qin Chuan’s cultivation immediately surged.
Quasi-Emperor second Heavenly Layer!
Then, this Quasi-Emperor... died!
Yes, this Quasi-Emperor didn’t even have a name or lines and just got dispatched.
Because there was no desire to pad out the story.
Then, Qin Chuan continued using the "Qin Xiaozhu" brand bait to fish, precisely speaking, to fish for Quasi-Emperors.
The Shattered Star Academy got blocked again!
A domineering youth in golden clothes had arrived by flying ship from the Purple Cloud Domain, sweeping the Shattered Star Academy!
And it wasn’t even a contest of levels.
This golden-clad youth, with a realm of an eighth Heavenly Layer Saint, challenged the entire Shattered Star Academy, overwhelmingly powerful.
His original words were:
"Besides those in the eighth Heavenly Layer, the ninth Heavenly Layer Demon Saints can also come up, of course... if you’re interested, everyone can come together!"
The Shattered Star Academy exploded with anger.
The crowd was incensed!
These young demon race talents felt humiliated, especially those ninth Heavenly Layer Demon Saints, they were aiming for the ninth Heavenly Emperor Tribulation, aiming for the position of Great Emperor, succeed or die trying.
Such geniuses, how proud are they?
Thus, the fiercest battle broke out!
Within the Shattered Star Academy, the roar was deafening, and the blood in the sky roared like a vast ocean, the scene was earth-shattering!
In the end, all disciples of the Shattered Star Demon Palace were smacked down, and those who didn’t dare to take action also lay on the ground, trembling.
The plaza was filled with corpses.
Even two ninth Heavenly Layer Demon Saints were slain, revealing their true forms, and their blood flowed on the ground, a horrifying sight.
The Elders of the Shattered Star Academy, eyes red, almost couldn’t hold back from personally eliminating this youth.
But in the end, they held back.
The iron-clad rule set by the highest level experts of both races, absolutely could not be violated, otherwise, they couldn’t escape death!
And as long as they didn’t dare to eliminate this young man, it was time for this young man to talk terms.
The golden-clad youth gazed forcefully at the many demon race elders and said dominantly:
"If I am willing, I can remain at this level and blockade you for a hundred years, so that within a century, no one in your Shattered Star Academy dares to break through the eighth Heavenly Layer, and only with the seventh Heavenly Layer can become emperor, severing the path to becoming Demon Emperor!"
The faces of many Elders turned pale.
So did the Master of Shattered Star Palace!
They knew that this freak standing before them definitely had this qualification, and if it truly came to that, it was unimaginable.
This was not just about face.
It was about inheritance!
By that time, any aspiring young demons wouldn’t dare to join the Shattered Star Academy, and the Shattered Star Academy would only exist in name...
If the Demon Race’s Holy Hall blamed them, their fates would be very miserable, and they would be nailed to a pillar of shame.
"What exactly do you want?"
The voice of the Master of the Shattered Star Palace appeared somewhat weary; as a Quasi-Emperor powerhouse, it was rare to feel such powerlessness.
The golden-clad youth took a deep breath, then seriously looked at the Master of the Shattered Star Palace, eyes firm, and said in a grave voice:
"My junior brother was kidnapped during a training half a year ago. As the leading senior brother, it was my dereliction, so... it’s my responsibility to bring him back!"
