He felt a wave of energy begin to gather in the darkness around him, and bits and pieces of stardust poured in from all directions, gradually condensing into a clump.

And with the convergence of these stardusts, it was as if there were thousands of ants in the blood of his whole body, and at the same time, he gradually felt that the soul power in his body began to stir. But the more restless his soul power became, the faster the stardust began to gather, and the less it began.

Qin Yu hurriedly adjusted his soul breath, and the convergence of the stardust also stabilized.

In this way, under Qin Yu's continuous insistence, after a stick of incense, a dazzling star appeared in front of him.

"Success!" Qin Yu's heart suddenly burst into joy, and at this moment, he suddenly felt a force pull his body back, quickly passing through countless stars, and returning to the real world.

"Haha, I succeeded! I finally relied on my own efforts to light up the fourth star essence, haha..." Qin Yu was overjoyed, but he immediately calmed down, originally he wanted to condense and light up another star essence, but he found that lighting such a star had consumed almost all of his soul power.

Therefore, in the end of a roundabout, the difference is still soul power.

How to obtain soul power has become his biggest problem at the moment, it seems that now he has to slow down and prioritize the cultivation of the soul sea, as long as he can survive the genius soul refiner competition, then it will be easy to talk about in the future.

Next, it was another few days of boring cultivation, and being included in the closed disciples was not so free for him. Every day, he had to go to the Xuanling Sect Master's refining room to cultivate, these things seemed to others to be supremely honorable, but for him, it was how many days he could go to the wild to hunt soul beasts and upgrade.

Fortunately, several of his friends have never forgotten him, and all the soul crystals obtained from hunting soul beasts in the wild have also been given to him, so that he can have enough soul power to try to light up the star cloud and his usual refining cultivation.

And after Cao Cao left that day, the Martial Soul Family began to unite with other families to start a more frequent and serious suppression of the Divine Soul Family, and couldn't help but send people to rob the caravan as bandits, and also let the Alliance Family impose serious taxes on the business travel or property of the Divine Soul Family in the territory. As a result, the industrial income of the Divine Soul Family has dropped to the lowest point in history, and it is still declining. Many families of the Divine Soul Family even announced that they would quit the family and switch to the arms of the Martial Soul Family.

However, the countermeasures of the Divine Soul Family had little effect, and Qin Hao had to announce the news that the Divine Soul Family and Xuan Danqing would become in-laws in advance without consulting with Mo Wanchuan in advance, and promised that the supply of pills in the family would definitely be increased in the future, which alleviated the contradictions among some families and made some families who originally planned to follow the trend quiet for the time being.

"Ridiculous! That's what he said?"

In the meeting hall of the Qin Mansion of the Divine Soul Family of Tianlan City, Qin Mu stood up, and in the face of the many elders of various clans, he couldn't help but tremble a little with anger.

The reason is not because of anything else, but because Zhou Fei, the patriarch of the Zhou clan, announced his departure from the Divine Soul Family.

"Impossible! The Zhou clan is the big clan of my Divine Soul family, since the founding of the Han Dynasty, it has survived and died with my Qin clan, and now even if his Zhou clan is oppressed by the Martial Soul Family, he will not forget the righteousness of his ancestors!"

Qin Mu was furious, but he could only hold back, after all, so many patriarchs and elders were watching.

"The head of the family, the Zhou family has not yet announced that he has joined other families, which means that there is still a turning point in this matter. Maybe Patriarch Zhou Fei was just out of anger..."

It was Wang Ying who spoke, the great elder of the Wang family, and as a female streamer, she had the absolute right to speak in the Wang family.

"Now that the thirteen clans have been separated, there are three, and if it goes on like this, I'm afraid that in the future, the entire Divine Soul Family will be..."Qin Gang sighed on the side, although he said half of the words, on the surface, he was worried about the future of the entire Divine Soul Family, but in fact, he was alluding to Qin Mu's incompetence.

"Otherwise, Qin Hao, you go and contact Mo Lao to see if you can set the marriage date for Qin Yu and the others earlier. After all, if everything settles, it will be extremely beneficial to my Divine Soul Family and Xuan Danqing. You must know that those sixth-order pills on the market are all from the hands of Xuan Danqing, which is even better than the Alchemist Association of the Empire!"

Qin Mu's words were actually conveying a message. Following the Divine Soul Family, as long as he can help Xuan Danqing grasp the lifeblood of the pill, he will be able to make a comeback. After all, this point is incomparable to the Martial Spirit Family.

"But the Martial Spirit Family of the Alchemist Association of the Empire has a lot of right to speak, in case they control the Alchemist Association to suppress Xuandanqing in the name of the Empire, then this consequence may be unpredictable, right?"

Zhao Wu, the patriarch of the Zhao family, usually shouts that it is he who takes revenge on the martial soul family, and now he is also lacking in confidence.

"That's fine, you can rest assured. Qin Mu said.

Indeed, the relationship between the Alchemist Association and Xuan Danqing is very delicate, and there is both cooperation and confrontation between the two. Although the Alchemist Association is directly under the empire, the realm of alchemists in it is uneven. Although it monopolized almost the entire empire's pill market, in terms of some high-grade pills, the Alchemist Association did not have Xuan Danqing's success rate at all, so most of the high-grade pills in the pill shops around the country were secondary sales that changed hands in cooperation with Xuan Danqing.

And the high-grade pill is more than 70% of the income of the pill industry of the entire Alchemist Association, and others don't know, but Qin Mu still knows it very well. Therefore, he didn't have to worry about the Alchemist Association destroying the Great Wall at this time.

What is happening now is to make Qin Yu's marriage happen as soon as possible.

However, there is one more important thing, Qin Mu must arrange it properly. That is the genius soul refiner competition in Kyoto half a month later, according to the emperor's latest decree, in addition to Qin Yu being named to participate, the number of participants in this competition is determined according to the title, the duke can play five people, the marquis is four, the earl is three, the viscount is two, and the baron is one.

The number of seats shared between the families is that no matter how many titles you have under your family, only the highest number of titles will be granted.

Since Qin Mu's title had been reduced to a marquis before, and there were no other families with higher titles in the Divine Soul Family, the number of participants in the entire Divine Soul Family in this Genius Soul Refiner Competition was four.

Originally, this competition was only hosted by the Wuhun family, but later the Wuhun family played Liu Xie, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, in order to let Qin Yu of the Soul family play. But he didn't want Liu Xie not only to agree, but also to call on all the princes of the country to participate in the name of the Son of Heaven.

As a result, this genius soul refiner competition presided over by the Emperor of the Han Dynasty became a holy decree that led to the entire Han Empire.

The rules of the competition are as follows:

There are a total of five levels of events in the competition, which are the Soul Master Group, the Soul Master Group, the Soul General Group, the Soul Sect Group and the Soul Venerable Group. Only players under the age of 35 are allowed to participate in the competition, which also cuts off the idea of using elders with rich combat experience to play.

Challenges can be leveled up, but not down. In other words, as long as you feel that you have that strength, you can completely challenge a higher-level soul refiner than you. There are no different levels of challenge, as long as you try it before the finals. However, once you are challenged, you will be a member of that level and you will not be able to skip any further levels.

At the end of the race, if the other participants die, the results of the race will be cancelled and they will be put in prison.

Each group will determine the final winner, and the first, second and third places will be divided. The rewards of each level are also very different, for example, the rewards of the soul master group are 100, 75, and 50 primary soul crystals, while the rewards of the soul master group are 80, 60, and 40 second-level soul crystals, and the soul general group is 60, 40, and 20 third-level soul crystals, and the first place in the soul sect group is one sixth-order elixir, and the second place is two fifth-order elixirs. The third place is three fourth-order elixirs, the first place in the soul venerable group is two fifth-order pills plus one fifth-order soul soldier, the second place is one fifth-order pill plus a fifth-order soul armor, and the third place is one fifth-order pill plus a fourth-order top-level soul soldier.

All the contestants must test the star in front of a soul crystal in front of the martial arts arena to prevent the soul test master from favoritism.

In this regard, Cao Cao of the Martial Spirit Family was a little helpless, after all, if the emperor presided over it in person, there would be many things that would be difficult to do.

On the other hand, the Divine Soul Family, after the emperor's latest holy decree was issued, took a long breath. No matter how bold his martial soul family is, he won't kill Qin Yu in front of the emperor, right?

However, it is still very necessary to protect Qin Yu's safety.

"Elder Wang, if you want to compete in the genius competition, please ask Elder Wang to go back and discuss with Lao Wang, and let Wang Zhizhong participate in this genius soul refiner competition, right?"

Qin Mu's tone was more tactful, now at this juncture, he had to deal with the relationship with other families well.

"This is naturally no problem, now that the Divine Soul Family is already at a critical juncture, our Wang family naturally shares the glory and disgrace. ”

Although Wang Ying, the great elder of the Wang family, is a female streamer, she is very knowledgeable, and the status of the Wang family in the Divine Soul family is quite high, so when she expressed her position, other families also expressed their willingness to contribute to the Divine Soul family.

Therefore, after repeated discussions and screening, the final candidates are as follows:

The Soul Venerable Group will be contested by Wang Zhizhong of the Wang clan.

The Soul Sect group will be contested by Yin Xiaoyu of the Yin clan.

The soul general group will be contested by Xu Ye of the Xu clan.

The soul master group is naturally Qin Yu, and the soul master group can only give up due to the number of participants.

The rewards received by all contestants will belong to the clan, and the Divine Soul Family will be rewarded separately.

In this way, the enthusiasm of all the participating clans is very high, after all, this is not only a matter of winning glory for the Divine Soul Family, but also related to the interests of their own families. After all, the value of the elixir was there, and the value of the Horcrux was even more expensive.
