I Started As the Qin Family Patriarch and Was Bound to the Selection System

Ruins openHearing this, the corner of Qin Yi’s mouth twitched slightly. ”I didn’t know about that. If that’s the case, then this crimson Yao Beast egg didn’t mutate at all.”

The Beast Taming Sect has extensive research on Yao Beasts; it’s impossible for them to put mutated Yao Beasts up for sale.

Thinking back to the Sloppy Old Man’s brilliant smile at the time, he felt like the man was a bit of a dishonest merchant.

”Sigh!”

”It turns out I was happy for nothing. I thought I had picked up some kind of treasure.”

Qin Yi gnashed his teeth. If he saw the Sloppy Old Man again, he would definitely give him a severe beating.

It seemed the Sloppy Old Man saw that his aura was profound and didn’t completely swindle him, even waiving the fee of five hundred thousand Spirit Stones.

I thought it was a bit strange at the time. Five hundred thousand Spirit Stones is quite a fortune; how could it be waived so easily?

As expected, the buyer is never as shrewd as the seller.

Better hatch the Yao Beast first. Spiritual Qi surged within Qin Yi as he raised his hands, continuously injecting Spiritual Qi into the two Yao Beast eggs.

The Spiritual Qi injected into the eggs was quickly absorbed by the Yao Beasts inside.

As the Spiritual Qi continued to flow in, the crimson Yao Beast egg soon reacted.

The eggshell shook continuously, and Qin Yi could feel its joyful mood.

Qin Yi looked at the other motionless Yao Beast egg and said with disappointment, ”No way, is this egg really that inferior?”

Crack!

Cracks appeared on the surface of the crimson egg. Slowly, a small bird’s head poked out, its eyes glancing around in all directions.

Bang!

A chubby little bird hopped out, featuring red feathers and thick black eyebrows.

Qin Yi’s eyes showed surprise as he said happily, ”Angry Bird.”

Its appearance was exactly the same as the Big Red bird from Angry Birds.

The Scarlet Fire Bird sniffed with its nose. Sensing the familiar aura from Qin Yi, its wings flapped, and it flew directly onto Qin Yi’s shoulder.

It began to rub its red bird head against him.

Feeling the soft feathers on his face, Qin Yi’s mood improved. ”Alright, stop making trouble for now. Your brother hasn’t come out yet.”

Hearing Qin Yi’s words, the Scarlet Fire Bird immediately stopped and stood quietly on Qin Yi’s shoulder.

Qin Yi looked pleased. ”You can understand me. I’ll call you Big Red from now on.”

Big Red’s eyes showed a thoughtful look.

Qin Yi ignored Big Red and began injecting Spiritual Qi with both hands. I want to see just how much you can absorb.

As time passed, the Yao Beast egg showed no reaction at all.

Qin Yi’s brow furrowed. If he couldn’t feel the life force inside, he would have thought it was a dead egg.

He sighed in disappointment. ”No way, just how underdeveloped are you? You’ve absorbed so much of my Spiritual Qi and still won’t come out.”

After an unknown amount of time, there was a crack, and the eggshell’s surface broke.

A black, chubby little bird appeared. Its aura was even stronger than Big Red’s; it had the strength of the Third-Order Peak right at birth.

Once it grew up, it would be at least a sixth-order Demonic Beast, or even a seventh-order Demonic Beast.

Qin Yi looked at the Little Black bird in disbelief. He understood now; Little Black wasn’t underdeveloped, he was the one that had mutated.

He thought it was Bronze, but it turned out to be a King.

Qin Shi also said in surprise, ”Clan Chief, I didn’t expect Little Black to be the mutated Yao Beast.”

Qin Yi nodded. He hadn’t expected to accidentally find such a bargain. If the Sloppy Old Man knew the Little Black bird had mutated, who knows how wonderful his expression would be.

Then, Qin Yi gave the Little Black bird the name Little Black.

With a thought from Qin Yi, a pile of Spirit Stones appeared on the table.

Seeing the Spirit Stones, Big Red and Little Black excitedly flew over, picked them up, and began crunching on them... Ten days later, the Yunmeng Ruins were about to open, and people from all forces gathered on the plains.

When the group from the Qingyun Sect saw Qin Yi, their eyes were filled with fury.

The leading Qingyun Sect Grand Elder, Lan Ling, had a gloomy expression as he spoke. ”Qin Yi, I didn’t expect you to dare come to the Yunmeng Ruins. This will be your burial ground.”

Since the Yunmeng Ruins were about to open, there was no need to cause trouble for Qin Yi outside; the Opportunities within the ruins were more important.

In any case, in their view, Qin Yi’s Martial King Sixth Layer cultivation was simply no match for them.

Qin Yi gave a cold snort and a smile. ”If you want to kill me, let’s see if you have the strength.”

The people from other surrounding forces watched this scene with great interest. One was the Great Yan Kingdom’s number one Sect, the Qingyun Sect, and the other was the rising star Qin Family. They wondered which side would emerge victorious.

Suddenly,

A Cultivator shouted excitedly, ”Look, the entrance to the ruins has appeared!”

A black vortex slowly appeared on the plain, emitting an eerie black Qi. This was the entrance to the Yunmeng Ruins.

The Qingyun Sect Grand Elder Lan Ling gave Qin Yi a cold look and said, ”Go, let’s head in first to seize the treasures.”

After saying that, he led the members of the Qingyun Sect behind him in a leap, entering the ruins.

Immediately after, people from various forces entered the ruins one after another. Most of their cultivations were in the Martial King and Martial Spirit Realm.

Qin Yi said, ”We’re going in too.”

Then, Qin Yi and his group entered the vortex, feeling only a shift in space and a sense of dizziness.

When they opened their eyes again, they had already entered the Yunmeng Ruins.

Before them was a stretch of ruins; buildings had collapsed and been damaged, and black Devilish Qi still lingered in the air.

Qin Yi observed the surroundings and found no sign of anyone. It seemed that entry resulted in random teleportation.

”Let’s head forward.”

Along the way, several Yao Beasts that had lost their sanity due to Devilish Qi erosion attacked Qin Yi and his group.

Bang, bang.

The cultivation levels of these Yao Beasts were not high, and they were dealt with in an instant.

Qin Yi collected the Yao Beast corpses and put them into his spatial ring. Although the meat was contaminated by Devilish Qi and inedible,

the claws, feathers, and other parts could still serve as Materials for refining weapons... Qin Shi pointed ahead and said excitedly, ”Clan Chief, there might be some treasures in that pavilion up ahead.”

All they had encountered along the way were damaged buildings. For there to be an intact pavilion here, it surely must be extraordinary.

Qin Yi nodded and said, ”Let’s get over there quickly.”

Qin Yi and the others moved rapidly, arriving in front of the pavilion in a few breaths.

The words ’Spiritual Artifact Pavilion’ were carved on the building. From outside, the sounds of fighting could be heard from within.

It seemed people had already entered.

”Come, let’s go in and seize the treasures.”

Qin Yi led the Hidden Guards into the pavilion.

As soon as they entered, a Formation attack flew toward them. Qin Yi threw a punch.

With a bang, the two forces collided, and the Formation attack was neutralized.

No wonder this pavilion hadn’t collapsed; it turned out a grand Formation was set up here.

However, after the erosion of time, the power the grand Formation could emit was far inferior to before. Now it only had attacks at the Martial Spirit Realm.

Qin Yi warned in a deep voice, ”Watch out for the Formation’s attacks. Let’s leave the range of the grand Formation.”

”Yes.” Qin Shi and the Hidden Guards nodded.

Soon, Qin Yi saw the source of the fighting sounds. It turned out that Li Xing and his group were also breaking through the Formation.

Li Xing naturally noticed Qin Yi as well. A flash of ruthlessness crossed his eyes, but he said with a smile, ”Patriarch Qin, what a coincidence. I didn’t expect us to meet here.”

”Mm.”

Qin Yi nodded without much further interaction. Li Xing was too good at hiding his true self; he was practically a smiling tiger.

Ignoring Li Xing, Qin Yi and his group continued heading forward.
