You slew my giant serpent!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Today, I will flay you alive, peel your sinews, and slowly torture you to death!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahaha…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s right—your parents both died by my hand!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There was no misunderstanding!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Soon, you too will die in my hands!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll send you down myself—to reunite with your parents!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahaha… you have a Dao Talisman, don’t you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Use another one!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu De roared at He Pingsheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swore to torture He Pingsheng mercilessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his view, He Pingsheng possessing one Dao Talisman was already the limit—he couldn’t possibly have a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the next moment, He Pingsheng waved his hand again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A golden Dao Talisman shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In midair, a brilliant golden great sword appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sword stretched ten zhang long, its tip pointed downward at Yu De, radiating wave after wave of ferocious sword energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This…?” Yu De, who had just been screaming, fell silent: “This… this… Younger Brother… it’s a misunderstanding… a misunderstanding!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He regretted it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he’d known, he should’ve killed He Pingsheng outright—why bother torturing him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, He Pingsheng would never have gotten the chance to strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regret!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu De regretted it down to his gut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But He Pingsheng gave him no chance—he softly commanded: “Fall!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden great sword crashed down upon Yu De.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A blinding flash erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, an energy wave mixed with dust and shattered stone surged outward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though He Pingsheng stood several zhang from the explosion’s center, the powerful shockwave flung him like a falling leaf, slamming him onto a rock ten zhang away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang… bang… bang… bang…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack… crack… crack… crack…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The valley erupted in chaotic noise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fearing Yu De might still be alive, He Pingsheng scrambled up from the rock and stared ahead—where Yu De had stood, a massive crater now yawned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rocks were reduced to rubble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood and shredded flesh splattered everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu De and the serpent’s corpse were nowhere to be seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All shattered!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reduced to countless fragments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huh…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng finally exhaled deeply, collapsing onto the cold rock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face was deathly pale, sweat beading on his brow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had he hesitated even slightly—or had Yu De struck first—his life would’ve ended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too bad Yu De thought too much, blabbered endlessly, obsessed with capturing him to torture to death?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was suicide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh… huh… huh…” He Pingsheng sat on the cold rock, gasping for breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One reason: the fear he’d suppressed since facing the Foundation Establishment disciple had finally released.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another: activating two Dao Talismans had pushed his spiritual sense to the brink of collapse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When would his spiritual sense recover?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Glancing at the wreckage, He Pingsheng forced himself through the searing pain in his spiritual sense and walked to the explosion site.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu De and the serpent were gone—no trace of bones or flesh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But on the ground lay a mid-grade magic treasure: a small green shield, and a storage pouch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng took them without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he returned to the cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He dismantled and took the cave’s array.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This place could no longer be used.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d have to find a new location.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cast one last look at the valley, then mounted his paper crane and flew off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the agony in his spiritual sense couldn’t sustain flight for long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After flying only a few dozen li, he was forced to land again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, he lacked the strength to even summon his sword to carve a new cave—so he sat cross-legged on a large rock, recovering his spiritual sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vast mountains stretched endlessly—when would he ever escape?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After two hours, a streak of light shot across the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng tensed, ready to hide—but it was too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The streak moved at blinding speed, landing beside him in two breaths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was his Master, Yu Ning!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, Yu Ning had been searching for He Pingsheng all this time, fearing his elder brother Yu De would kill his disciple first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master?” He Pingsheng quickly bowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm.” Yu Ning studied him, worry etched on his face: “What happened?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng lowered his head, silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t dodge me!” Yu Ning’s voice turned stern: “I’ll handle this—tell me the truth!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Ning asked: “Why didn’t you return with the Elders after leaving the Secret Realm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng had no answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His plan had been to flee and never return to the sect—he’d never prepared an explanation for his Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So now, faced with the question, he was utterly speechless!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Master Yu Ning, heart aching for his disciple, placed a hand on He Pingsheng’s shoulder and said: “Enough. I won’t ask.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As long as you’re safe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The sect is buzzing—rumors say you killed your Master Yu De’s disciples: Linglong, Yang Xu, Luoyu, and others!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll ask you just one thing!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Ning stared at He Pingsheng and said softly, “Whether you killed someone or not, I don’t care, and you don’t need to tell me again. I only ask you: did you leave any evidence for them?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evidence?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng immediately understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His master meant proof.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng thought for a moment and said, “What I have done, I do not regret in my heart, nor before heaven and earth!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They certainly cannot seize any evidence against me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, rest assured!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good!” Yu Ning exhaled in relief. “As long as they have no proof, and you deny it to the death, I will protect you fully afterward. Come with me!”\u003C\u002Fp>",1135,"2026-06-21T04:08:57.694Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","3415d34726f58d59153ecb0de91ad19f12bc827052ed4d938bd6fbd5e4f51898","the-treasure-immortal-basin-chapter-102","the-treasure-immortal-basin-chapter-100",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-treasure-immortal-basin-cover.jpg"]
