Asura Mad Emperor

"What? A mysterious altar has appeared in the Refining Spirit Valley of the Burning Heaven Sect?"

Qinchuan felt somewhat puzzled.

When he had left the Burning Heaven Sect, he had repeatedly instructed Chi Shan and the others to strictly guard the entrance to the Divine Severing Cliff in the Refining Spirit Valley and to prevent others from sneaking in again.

With Qinchuan's personal orders, Chi Shan and the others would definitely not be the least bit negligent and were bound to be highly vigilant in guarding the entrance to the Refining Spirit Valley.

Although Chi Hai was temporarily residing in Tianqing City, Chi Shan, Chi Ren, and others were still with the Burning Heaven Sect. Someone had been able to infiltrate the Refining Spirit Valley under the noses of Chi Ren and a host of Supreme Saint Experts and even build an altar, which obviously meant the intruder had a significant background.

However, Qinchuan then remembered the stele inscribed with mysterious runes in the heart of the Heavenly Demon Forest, where a mysterious altar had also been established.

Without hesitation, Qinchuan went directly to the central Teleportation Formation of Tianqing City.

"Young Master Qin, where would you like to go?"

The Supreme Saint Expert guarding the central Teleportation Formation had long recognized Qinchuan and asked with great respect.

"To the Burning Heaven Sect."

"Yes."

The Supreme Saint Expert operated Dao Magic, and a magnificent burst of radiant light illuminated the great Teleportation Array.

The Burning Heaven Sect's dojo.

A crystal-clear and dazzling Teleportation Array had sprung up out of nowhere a year before, signifying the direct connection between the Burning Heaven Sect and Tianqing City.

The Burning Heaven Sect had already garnered much attention due to Chi Hai's achievement as a Great Emperor, and with the addition of the Teleportation Array, a continuous stream of cultivators came to the Burning Heaven Sect, wishing to join.

Originally, the Burning Heaven Sect had been greatly weakened by a major battle, but now, taking advantage of the situation, they recruited quite a few new disciples.

One day, a glint of crystal-like divine light flashed across the Teleportation Array in the Burning Heaven Sect's dojo, and a figure appeared.

"Who is that?"

Although the Teleportation Array was completed, the cost of a single transmission was not a small number of Crystal Stones; it took a whole fifty Crystal Stones per use. For most of the outer disciples of the Burning Heaven Sect, the twenty Mysterious Crystals allotted each month for cultivation were already limited, so using fifty to teleport was considered extremely extravagant.

Therefore, every time this Teleportation Array flickered, it would attract the attention of some of the disciples.

"It looks like a strong practitioner from the Dragon Transformation Realm!"

A disciple protector discerned Qinchuan's realm.

"Elder! You have returned!"

The one guarding the Teleportation Array was none other than Lin Qingtian, an elder of the Burning Heaven Sect.

Initially, Lin Qingtian had a feud with Qinchuan and was very unconvinced with Qinchuan taking the position of Elder of the Fiery Sky Lineage.

However, during the siege of the Burning Heaven Sect by the forces of the Jiuxiang Ancient Country, Lin Qingtian stood with the Fiery Sky Lineage and witnessed the terrifying might of Qinchuan.

Today, Qinchuan was only in the Immortal Platform Realm, but Lin Qingtian knew that just a few years ago, Qinchuan was only in the Meridian Opening Realm and had already managed to kill Quasi-Emperor powerhouses with his skills at that time.

Moreover, he had vaguely heard rumors that the Great Emperors of the Three Kingdoms, including Taiyuan, were eliminated by the hand of the Elder himself.

Now, he had also learned that Qinchuan was revered as the Eternal National Teacher throughout the entire Tianyuan Nation—a status that he could not hope to match.

Lin Qingtian appeared from the shadows, respectfully paying his respects, causing many disciples in the distance to exclaim in surprise.

"My God, who is this Dragon Transformation Realm cultivator that casually accepts such a grand gesture of respect from the Sixth Elder?"

Many of the newer disciples still did not recognize Qinchuan.

```

"Hush, that's not just anyone; that's the venerated Elder from our Fiery Sky Lineage!"

Jiang Yan had also shot down from the peak, arriving at the practice field, speaking softly from a distance.

Because of Qinchuan, he had been taken in as a direct disciple by Sect Leader Chi Shan, completely rewriting his life. He held immense respect for Qinchuan.

"What, Senior Brother Jiang Yan, are you saying that person is our Fiery Sky Lineage's Elder?"

"How could an Elder of our Fiery Sky Lineage be a cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Realm?"

A newly initiated disciple asked in surprise.

"Hmph, don't underestimate the Elder. If I were to tell you his name, you would surely be startled," Jiang Yan said coolly.

"What is the Elder's name?" the disciple continued to inquire.

"Spend fifty mysterious crystals to activate the teleportation array and take a trip to Tianqing City. Just ask any passerby about the name of the golden colossal statue standing in the center of Tianqing City, and you'll know!" Jiang Yan told him.

"What do you mean?" The disciple didn't grasp it immediately.

On the other hand, another disciple nearby, quick-witted, covered his mouth and exclaimed, "Senior Brother Jiang Yan, are you saying that this powerhouse from the Dragon Transformation Realm, our venerated Elder, is none other than the present Tianyuan Nation's eternal National Master—Lord Qinchuan?"

"Not too slow on the uptake!" Jiang Yan glanced at the disciple, stood tall and proud, and said, "Remember, although the Elder is now the Tianyuan Nation's eternal National Master, he first and foremost belongs to our Fiery Sky Lineage as an Elder. Your status in the future shouldn't be too far behind that of the Imperial Family's disciples."

Even though Jiang Yan had a pure heart, deep inside he couldn't help but feel a profound sense of pride.

His words also stirred excitement among the disciples of the Burning Heaven Sect, each thinking to themselves, "It seems that joining the Burning Heaven Sect was indeed a wise decision."

As everyone marveled and envied, Qinchuan had already reached the entrance to Refining Spirit Valley.

"Young Master Qin!"

Chi Shan, Chi Ren, and others had long been waiting at the entrance to Refining Spirit Valley.

"What's the matter?" Qinchuan asked.

"There has been a slight anomaly within the Divine Valley that requires Young Master Qin to personally investigate to understand," said Chi Shan while opening the passageway to the valley.

Without saying anything further, Qinchuan's figure flickered and he flashed into the passageway.

Qinchuan and the likes of Chi Shan followed the passageway into the valley, where Qinchuan noticed that the place had undergone an earth-shaking transformation.

Originally...

The Divine Valley was home to countless Divine Soul Fragments, and the entire valley was previously a dense forest. But now, this region had turned into a bare expanse, and the terrain had shifted.

Despite the changes in terrain, following the route in his memory, Qinchuan arrived at Divine Severing Cliff once more, only to be stunned.

"The Divine Severing Cliff is gone?!"

Indeed, it had vanished—the Divine Severing Cliff that had stood tall in the Divine Valley for countless eras was now a void, utterly missing.

And in the spot where the Divine Severing Cliff had disappeared, there stood a newly-built altar made of five-colored Divine Stones, emanating a faint light.

The altar bore fresh marks, and the colors of the Divine Stones shone vividly, indicating that the altar had been constructed not long ago.

And before the altar, there was also a green stele inscribed with those mysterious runes.

As expected...

Just as Qinchuan had thought, this altar and the one in the Heavenly Demon Forest were identical in layout, style, and stele—they were undoubtedly the work of the same hands.
