After crossing over, he has no taboos among the zombies.

Chapter 1379

The moment Qin He stepped into the secret room, the soft light of the luminous pearl washed over his shoes.

The spiritual treasures embedded in the four walls trembled on their own, and the long sword hummed as it hovered in mid-air, its spiritual energy transforming into a visible white light.

The fragrance of the elixir in the jade bottle was so strong it was almost tangible. When it reached my nose, even the demonic cloud millstone in my dantian couldn't help but spin a little faster.

But his gaze never left the jade platform in the center of the secret chamber.

The bronze box lay there quietly, with dragon patterns winding along its body, and two rubies set in the dragon's eyes, their flowing luster resonating subtly with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

What really struck Qin He was the faint fluctuation of law emanating from the surface of the box.

It wasn't the Saint Realm Origin of Long Qingyun, but a more ancient and purer aura, like a newly born star, carrying unparalleled vitality.

"This is……"

Qin He stepped forward slowly, and before his fingertips even touched the box, he felt a suction force flowing into his meridians along his fingertips.

That force wasn't domineering, but it had extremely strong penetrating power, directly affecting his demonic essence, causing his bottleneck in enlightenment to show signs of loosening.

The difference between the Divine Bridge Realm and the Other Shore Realm is not the abundance of spiritual power, but the comprehension of the laws.

In the abyss, it took him thirty years to finally touch the threshold of the laws.

He possesses several supernatural powers, but he can only use them. Touching the laws is still separated by a thin veil. In addition, the Abyss Plane is obviously lower than this world, the laws of heaven and earth are blurred, and the Dao is not manifest. It is not easy to truly come into contact with the laws.

Now that I have switched to demonic cultivation, the path is completely different. I need to use demonic energy to comprehend the Dao, but the demonic veins of this world have been severed, and it is difficult to even find any trace of reference.

The fluctuations of the laws emanating from this bronze box subtly resonated with his demonic energy.

“Buzz——”

The black demon banner in his sleeve suddenly trembled, and Long Qingyun's voice came from inside the banner: "This is the Dao Evolution Dragon Pattern Box, the true treasure of the Long family."

Qin He raised an eyebrow, his fingertip hovering three inches from the box.

"Our ancestor once stumbled into an ancient secret realm and risked his life to bring this box out."

Long Qingyun's tone was full of reluctance and regret, "The box contains a 'fragment of the primordial law,' which does not belong to any attribute but can be compatible with all laws in the world. I was able to break through to the Saint Realm back then entirely because of this fragment, which guided me and allowed me to comprehend the thunder and fire law inherited by the Long family."

The banner was slightly warm, and one could sense the intense emotions of the living soul within it.

"Boy, if you want this fragment, I can teach you how to unlock it." Long Qingyun's voice suddenly rose, filled with a desperate determination, "But you have to promise me one thing: to revive the Long family."

"Let those traitors pay with their blood, and let the Long family stand once again at the pinnacle of Yunlai!"

Upon hearing this, Qin He suddenly chuckled softly. The laughter was not loud, but it carried a chilling undertone and echoed within the banner: "Long Qingyun, do you think you have the right to negotiate?"

He tapped the bronze box with his finger. "This box is in my hands. Whether you tell me or not, I'll find a way to open it sooner or later. As for reviving the Long family, you're willing to sacrifice even your own family members for your breakthrough. What's the point of reviving a family like that?"

The struggle inside the banner suddenly stopped.

After a long silence, Long Qingyun's voice was heavy with weariness and a hint of compromise: "I know I'm not qualified."

"Let's change the terms. Reviving the Long family is a span of decades or even centuries. I don't have the patience for that. I'm busy." Qin He stroked the dragon pattern on the box with his fingertips, his tone indifferent.

Long Qingyun will eventually need to be recruited, so it's good to discuss the terms now.

"Take Qingyao as your apprentice."

Long Qingyun's voice was firm, "She is the most talented child of the Long family in this generation. She has the cultivation of the Dao Palace Realm, yet she can vaguely sense the fluctuations of the laws. You teach her cultivation, protect her, and let the Long family preserve a trace of its bloodline."

"In exchange, I will immediately tell you how to open the box, and I will also teach you how to refine the fragments."

Qin He turned his head and looked at Long Qingyao, who was standing at the door of the secret room.

The girl was still wearing her tattered brocade robe, her face still covered in mud, but her back was straight, and her eyes held no fear, only a hint of stubbornness. In the courtyard earlier, though she had trembled with fear, she hadn't uttered a single cry, demonstrating considerable resilience.

More importantly, Long Qingyun said she could sense the fluctuations of the laws.

Such talent is somewhat bizarre.

Taking on an apprentice isn't too troublesome; whether to teach more or less is entirely up to you.

Even a nominal apprentice is still an apprentice.

“Alright.” Qin He withdrew his gaze. “But I have a rule: once you join my sect, you must abandon all past grudges. I will not take the initiative to avenge the Long family; whether or not she can avenge them depends on her own abilities. In addition, unless I agree, you must not reveal her master-disciple relationship with me.”

"The Long family's grudge naturally doesn't need your help. As for the master-disciple relationship, your enemy... is the Divine Court, hmph." Long Qingyun said meaningfully.

"Then why are you still going to get involved?" Qin He retorted, "Stop talking nonsense, now I want to take this thing away, how do I do that?"

"Use your demonic energy to inject it along the dragon pattern." Long Qingyun's voice came, with a hint of relief. "The glass stone is the key point. Be gentle when injecting it, don't shatter it. The box has three layers of restrictions, which need to be broken layer by layer. Otherwise, if the power of the laws is suddenly triggered, none of you will be able to suppress it, and the consequences will not be good."
