Qin Chuan understood. This Bei Chu family head must have sensed the powerful dragon energy within him and the extraordinary encounters he had on the path of dragons. Therefore, he definitely needed some things related to true dragons.
True dragons were treasures, but many of their possessions were not usable by just anyone; only those with a destiny to dragons could use them.
It seemed the Bei Chu family head was after this. The other party's plan was clever, but Qin Chuan found his resolve to refuse growing weaker.
He could obtain it immediately, have ten days to fight, and at worst lose. As long as he survived, he could get a supreme treasure.
This deal seemed very worthwhile, but Qin Chuan knew very well that it wasn't. The other party was doing this because he was at least confident of taking his life.
So Qin Chuan hesitated slightly. After all, no matter how good the item was, it was only good if you were alive to enjoy it. But at this moment, the Bei Chu family head slowly smiled and said, "What are you afraid of?"
Just this one sentence left Qin Chuan with no way out, because it struck at his heart.
This Bei Chu family head was more terrifying than he had imagined. He could see through things first, and this sentence had hit the nail on the head regarding Qin Chuan's martial arts foundation.
Fear is sometimes real, like in a fight where you're outmatched, the difference in strength is too great, and you just give up and run away – that's fine.
But you can't surrender before the fight even begins; that's a cardinal sin. The path of martial arts is incredibly arduous. Even climbing to the heavens requires overcoming countless obstacles, fighting against fate, and seizing opportunities – each step is incredibly difficult, yet you never back down.
But if you retreat before the fight even starts, then once you start, you'll start again, creating a vicious cycle.
Eventually, your progress in martial arts will stagnate, and you'll find it very difficult to make any further breakthroughs.
Despite his malicious intentions, Qin Chuan felt relaxed. The difficulty lies in having choices; when there's only one path and no other option, things become easier.
At this moment, Qin Chuan felt very relaxed, suddenly at ease. What was there to fear? So he looked up at the Bei Chu family head and nodded: "Alright, I agree!"
The Bei Chu family head happily took out a brocade box and handed it to Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan opened the Eye of the True Dragon. A crystal-like dragon eye, imposing, noble, and brimming with spiritual energy…
Suddenly, Qin Chuan noticed the Golden Divine Eye vibrating. Hmm? Qin Chuan had previously said the Golden Divine Eye had reached a huge plateau and couldn't break through.
This was truly an opportunity; this Eye of the True Dragon was actually the key to that breakthrough. It was like finding a needle in a haystack, only to have it fall into his lap effortlessly.
Qin Chuan was inwardly excited, but outwardly remained calm, carefully putting away the Eye of the True Dragon.
"I wonder who the Bei Chu family head will have me fight?" Qin Chuan asked.
The Bei Chu family head thought for a moment and said, "You've already met this person."
Qin Chuan looked at the old man beside the Bei Chu family head. The old man hadn't uttered a single word since he started sitting there, and still hadn't said a word.
However, Qin Chuan had been amazed by the old man's strength from the beginning, and now, hearing that he would fight this old man, he was still slightly surprised.
After all, the other party was so old; the Bei Chu family shouldn't be so shameless. But the facts showed that the Bei Chu family was far more shameless than he had imagined.
But that's all for now. His priority is to break through to the Golden Divine Eye before the battle. He just doesn't know if a breakthrough to the Golden Divine Eye will allow him to reach the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm.
Qin Chuan has had plenty of time, but there's still hope. If he reaches the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm and his Golden Divine Eye breaks through its current level, entering a new realm, then his chances of victory will be virtually guaranteed, and he won't fear the Bei Chu family .
Thinking of this, Qin Chuan felt excited, a surge of pride rising within him. After a moment's hesitation, he nodded: "Alright, see you at the martial arts arena in ten days when the sun is high in the sky."
The Bei Chu family head happily left.
The Bei Chu family head needed an opportunity. If he succeeded, everything would be fine. As for the True Dragon Eye, it was useless in his hands.
If he failed, he would have a way out. The treasure he had given away was the bridge; then the sky's the limit, and this young man certainly wouldn't stay here, so there was no need for him to care.
The reason he was seizing this opportunity was out of jealousy, a desire to destroy a genius, and to salvage the Bei Chu family's reputation. So, eliminating him would be best, but even if he couldn't, he needed to leave himself a way out.
Upon returning, Qin Chuan once again chose to go into seclusion. Ten days felt too short, so he didn't waste a moment.
Sitting cross-legged, Qin Chuan circulated his energy throughout his body, completing a large cycle to bring himself to peak condition before opening the brocade box.
The True Dragon's Eye—Qin Chuan intended to absorb its power to allow his Golden Divine Eye to break through. He already knew the Golden Divine Eye desperately craved the True Dragon's Eye.
Not only the Golden Divine Eye, but also the Nine Divine Dragons, whose pure dragon energy held immense attraction.
Absorb!
A golden halo, almost tangible, enveloped the True Dragon's Eye in his eyes.
Hmm?
The True Dragon's Eye resisted, which surprised Qin Chuan slightly. The resistance was too strong, leaving him helpless for a moment.
Interesting. A True Dragon's Eye even possessed its own protective instinct, and its defensive capabilities were incredibly powerful.
Forcibly absorbing it might cause the True Dragon's Eye to explode, posing a dilemma for Qin Chuan.
Roar!
At this moment, a dragon's roar resounded, sacred and solemn, emanating from the depths of his body—the roar of the Nine Divine Dragons.
As soon as the roar echoed, Qin Chuan was pleasantly surprised to find that the resistance of the True Dragon's Eye vanished instantly.
This?
Qin Chuan quickly understood. The True Dragon's Eye was merely the eye of a true dragon, but within his body resided the Nine Divine Dragons.
The current level of the Nine Divine Dragons was not low; a single dragon's roar could intimidate even a true dragon, let alone just a single True Dragon's Eye.
Without resistance, absorption became much simpler and faster, incredibly smooth. The Golden Divine Eye continuously absorbed the spiritual power of the True Dragon's Eye.
A cool aura entered his eyes and his sea of consciousness, which the Golden Divine Eye absorbed continuously, slowly changing.
Unbeknownst to him, the Nine Divine Dragons also joined in, actually merging into him, making Qin Chuan, the Nine Divine Dragons, and the Golden Divine Eyes one. Whoosh
!
Golden light burst forth, Qin Chuan's eyes shooting out brilliant golden light, his brain suddenly vibrating violently before quickly returning to calm.
But at this moment, Qin Chuan discovered that his sea of consciousness had changed. When he opened his eyes, the world he saw was different.
He wasn't sure if the Golden Divine Eye was still the same as before, because it had merged with the nine Divine Dragons.
Furthermore, he found the world much clearer and more detailed than before—not just ordinary detail, but the ability to easily discern trajectories of movement, and even more profound mysteries.
