Moreover, every member of my Xuanwu clan is born with a divine shell—our defense is already invincible. Using this bottom shell is merely adding flowers to brocade; it serves little purpose!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just take it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the void, Kong Que, the Great Lun Mingwang, nodded and said: “He Pingsheng, when elders bestow gifts, one must not refuse. Accept what the Xuanwu Demon Emperor gives you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do not overthink it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This item will be of great use to you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the Great Lun Mingwang speak, He Pingsheng no longer refused: “Very well… I will take the treasure for now. When my cultivation reaches Body Integration, I shall return it to your Xuanwu clan—then, I shall return both the bottom shell and the top shell together!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For He Pingsheng, this was no problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once his cultivation reached Body Integration, the Treasure Basin could strengthen it—turn one into two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Giving a set to the Xuanwu clan would be no issue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hehe… no need to insist; let fate decide!” With that, the Xuanwu Demon Emperor stepped forward and returned to the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng put away the bottom shell!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Father… what do we do now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Yao, speaking to Tian Jinpeng while fixing her sharp gaze on He Pingsheng: “We can’t keep living in hiding forever, can we?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her purpose in coming to the Talent Assembly was to sow discord among the clans and eliminate He Pingsheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, He Pingsheng is still alive, while the Kongkong Crown Prince is dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Perhaps…” Before Tian Jinpeng could speak, Tian Yao added: “Will the Kongkong Demon Emperor kill him?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Unlikely,” said Tian Jinpeng. “Others may not know, but I do—this boy possesses a supreme-grade substitute doll!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even if a Mahayana Emperor strikes him, He Pingsheng won’t die!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Besides, the Xuanwu Demon Emperor must have seen He Pingsheng’s future. If He Pingsheng were to die immediately, why would he go through the trouble of gifting a divine turtle shell?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough. I’ll go speak with him again—see if we can reconcile.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Jinpeng had run out of options.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Yao said: “Reconcile?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Father… don’t fool yourself. He Pingsheng won’t reconcile with us!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not necessarily,” said Tian Jinpeng. “Right now, he needs us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Tian Jinpeng tidied himself and walked toward He Pingsheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a few breaths, he stood beside He Pingsheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng glanced at him, his expression calm—no hatred, no emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Jinpeng admired He Pingsheng’s composure. He took a deep breath, steadied his emotions, and said: “He Pingsheng… as fellow humans, I am genuinely pleased that our race has produced both you and Wang Dun!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng said: “Say what you mean.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm!” Tian Jinpeng cut straight to the point: “Three days from now, the Stone Platform Stairway ascension begins. You still don’t have a Wall-Breaker, do you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And the rules have changed this year!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Wall-Breaker must be from your own race. Our human race has only one Mahayana Emperor now—Duan Feihong!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you agree, I’ll erase all past grievances between us. I’ll go fetch Duan Feihong right now—he’ll become your Wall-Breaker!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you say?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He Pingsheng, don’t answer hastily!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Think carefully—leaving your name on the Stone Platform Stairway isn’t just personal glory; it affects your race’s destiny!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Otherwise, the Phoenix Clan wouldn’t go to such lengths to block your ascent!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you understand what I’m saying?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng sneered coldly: “Don’t even ask me to spare Tian Yao or you. Even if Duan Feihong stood here right now and knelt, begging to be my Wall-Breaker, I wouldn’t accept!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t care about ascending the Stone Platform Stairway!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But you and your daughter must die!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Jinpeng’s face turned pale: “You… you… He Pingsheng, our grudge isn’t beyond resolution—why can’t you let it go?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Correct,” said He Pingsheng. “It isn’t beyond resolution. Nor are you destined to die.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But she…” He Pingsheng pointed at Tian Yao among the crowd: “Must die.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If she and her clone both die and are delivered to me for me to see, I may spare you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Otherwise, you two should find a hiding place now—while I’m still in competition—and never show your faces again!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Or else… hehehe…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Jinpeng said no more—he turned and left immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As He Pingsheng had said, the wisest course now was to find a hiding place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shhh…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The instant Tian Jinpeng turned, a pale golden light shot from He Pingsheng’s hand, striking Tian Yao’s body with lightning speed—*snap!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Talisman: Chain-Soul Curse Talisman!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah…” Tian Yao screamed in terror: “Damn it! He Pingsheng, what curse have you placed on me?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the next moment, she understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She felt the connection between her true body and her clone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Chain-Soul Curse Talisman… you placed this on me?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He Pingsheng… how cruel you are!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How could you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’re all human—do you have no mercy at all?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng sat cross-legged on the square, eyes downcast, nose to heart, silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Yao kept cursing bitterly, growing more vicious by the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, a loud slap rang out through the air—*crack!*—striking Tian Yao’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the Great Lun Mingwang who struck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you make another sound, I’ll crush you with one palm!” The Great Lun Mingwang stared coldly at Tian Yao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Yao trembled, fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, she and her father slunk away from the Stone Platform Assembly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your luck is quite strong…” The Great Lun Mingwang descended from the void after the Tian family left and sat beside He Pingsheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng smiled: “I’m not just lucky…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Great Lun Mingwang clenched her silver teeth slightly, sneering: “Oh? Then tell me—what else is ‘strong’?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her slender fingers pinched a tuft of flesh on He Pingsheng’s arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng shuddered instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>",1109,"2026-06-21T04:09:01.327Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","2dfc6ff7e996a79cc7fe943cc7724c0a16944217b63703fa18d9425b93af0d27","the-treasure-immortal-basin-chapter-808","the-treasure-immortal-basin-chapter-806",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-treasure-immortal-basin-cover.jpg"]
