Qian Qian wanted to say something, but seeing that Qin Xuan had no intention of stopping, she thought for a moment and then turned to leave the area.
She indeed had some things she needed to prepare in advance.
"Qin Xuan, shouldn't you keep an eye on her? What if she tries to harm you?"
Han Ye asked, a little strangely, seeing that Qin Xuan had no intention of watching Qian Qian.
Qin Xuan just smiled and stepped towards the market.
"What's there to keep an eye on? I've already planted a Restriction in her body."
"Even if she wants to harm me, I can suppress her at any time, or even erase her."
"That Restriction contains both my Essence Blood and fragments of my Divine Soul. As long as she dares to lay a hand on me, I can instantly cripple her Physical Body and Divine Soul."
"As long as she doesn't want to die, she'll know to behave."
Han Ye listened, nodded slightly, and said nothing more.
Qin Xuan accelerated towards the market.
After a while, Qin Xuan entered the market and began selecting the items he wanted.
"I didn't know before, but it turns out there's a Wu Ji Sea next to the Kun Peng Nest. Since the Wu Ji Sea has many sea beasts, I naturally need to prepare some things to deal with beast types."
His gaze swept over the various stalls, and Qin Xuan looked over with great interest.
"High-grade Talisman paper, can be used to make Advanced Talismans."
Someone was hawking there.
Qin Xuan thought for a moment, walked over, and bought some Talisman paper.
"Are you going to make Talismans? There might not be enough time in these few days."
Han Ye knew a lot of things, but his proficiency in Talisman making was not deep.
"That's right, didn't I just get the snake demon's Divine Soul? The snake demon was about to transform into a flood dragon. Its Divine Soul can be used to create a spirit-attaching Talisman, which can temporarily boost my combat power."
For the next period, he would try anything that could potentially increase his combat power.
"There are still a few days until we reach the East Sea. During these days, I need to make more preparations and try to improve my cultivation."
Half an hour later, he had already selected all the necessary items.
"I purchased a large bag each of both Lure Beast Spiritual Plant and Beast Repelling Spiritual Plant. The price was a bit high, but that's normal. With the Kun Peng Nest about to open, many people are likely preparing these two items."
Although the situation of the Wu Ji Sea has not spread widely, quite a few people should know about it.
As for the rest, they were some Materials used to refine Talismans.
"This time, so many Geniuses are heading to the Kun Peng Nest."
"If so many Genius Disciples start fighting, it's easy to get ganged up on."
"To deal with so many people at once, only Talismans and Thunder Fireballs are the most reliable."
In a multi-person ambush, Qin Xuan would certainly be outnumbered. The best method would be to use a Thunder Fire Pearl or Talismans.
On one hand, both of these can cause large-scale damage.
On the other hand, these two methods can take effect very quickly.
Especially the Thunder Fire Pearl; throwing it out is enough to wipe out a large number of people.
Finding a teahouse, Qin Xuan sat for a while, and Qian Qian also returned.
Seeing her smiling, she must have bought something to her liking.
"Have you prepared everything you need?"
Qian Qian nodded.
"Everything is ready. I didn't have much to prepare anyway, just that I was short on some items for divination, so I went to replenish them."
Saying this, as if to prove she wasn't lying, Qian Qian took out her qiankun ring.
"Clang!"
She opened the qiankun ring and placed all the divination items inside, such as tortoise shells, animal bones, and crystals, in front of Qin Xuan.
"I didn't buy anything else, just these."
"There's no need for this. I won't question what you buy. Buy whatever you want."
Qin Xuan said indifferently, then stood up.
"Let's go, we'll depart now."
The Kun Peng Nest is tens of thousands of miles from here; they had to depart early.
If Qin Xuan was previously conflicted between flying himself and using a Cloud Boat, now using a Cloud Boat was his only option.
After all, wings are simply too conspicuous. If he were targeted by someone with ill intentions, it would be troublesome.
If some powerful Cultivator were to capture and inspect him, they could easily discover that he had refined Kun Peng Essence Blood within his body.
"Moreover, I have to bring a woman. I can't just carry her while flying, can I?"
It seemed, perhaps, it wasn't impossible.
Shaking his head vigorously to suppress the distracting thoughts that arose, Qin Xuan gestured for Qian Qian to follow.
"Okay, let's go."
Leaving the teahouse, the two hurried towards another square in the distance.
Cloud Boats were constantly taking off and landing there; it was the designated area for Cloud Boat operations.
Because many people were coming to take Cloud Boats during this period, the Cloud Boats were continuously taking off and landing. From here, there were hundreds of Cloud Boats in the sky.
Scanning his surroundings, Qin Xuan didn't find any trace of Da Gan and his group.
It seemed they had either already departed or were, like him, still searching for needed items in the nearby market.
Confirming there was no one he knew, Qin Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.
His Cloud Boat was, after all, not something that could be openly displayed, as it was taken from someone else. The fewer people who knew, the better.
He took out the Cloud Boat, and after a moment, the Cloud Boat returned to its original state.
Although it was only a small Cloud Boat, it still surprised Qian Qian.
After all, ordinary people couldn't afford something like a Cloud Boat. From what she understood, Qin Xuan should not have come from a large Family.
"Come aboard."
Qin Xuan jumped on, then turned to beckon Qian Qian, inviting her onto the Cloud Boat.
Qian Qian nodded, leaped gracefully, her body like a flying willow catkin, landing like a blooming lotus flower onto the Cloud Boat.
Several Cultivators walking by stared, their eyes wide.
"Depart!"
Qin Xuan inserted Spirit Stones into the Cloud Boat's Formation. Under his control, the Cloud Boat shot into the sky, accelerating continuously.
"The East Sea coast should be in that direction."
Qian Qian pointed in a direction.
Qin Xuan checked the token in his hand, confirmed that the direction Qian Qian pointed was correct, and then controlled the Cloud Boat to fly in that direction.
Looking at Qian Qian, Qin Xuan asked, a little strangely.
"Don't you have a pass token?"
All the Disciples who passed the assessment this time had a pass token, but he didn't see one on Qian Qian.
To enter the Kun Peng Nest, a pass token was necessary; otherwise, they would be stopped.
Qian Qian smiled and took out a jade pendant. The jade pendant was extremely clear and obviously of good quality.
"I don't use a token. This was obtained by our Sect through a major power. With this jade pendant, I can freely enter and exit the Kun Peng Nest. Its effect is equivalent to the token in your Young Master's hand, and its grade might be even higher."
