Qin Qi scratched his ear, saying, "I'm out on a mission. If I take you three along, can I even get anything done?"

Shen Lulu listened excitedly on the side, "What did the master say!"

Han Siqi smiled warmly, "The master is going on official business, he won't let you two tag along!"

"Oh!" Shen Lulu was clearly a bit disappointed.

But she knew that the mission was important, so she didn't say much more.

Han Siqi had already prepared everything and quickly headed to the entrance of Qin Qi's residential area.

Naturally, Qin Qi was well prepared too. After getting in the car, he stated the destination directly.

About an hour later.

Qin Qi and Han Siqi arrived at the Chen family's territory.

Qin Qi had already informed Chen Quezi, and Chen Quezi had not the slightest objection!

"You just wait in the car, I'll go up the mountain alone!" Qin Qi said.

Han Siqi nodded obediently.

In no time, Qin Qi once again arrived at that familiar old well.

"Young Master Qin!"

A group of Chen family members appeared, their attitude respectful, "Young Master Chen has already informed us!"

"Hmm, you all just stand guard outside!" Qin Qi said emotionlessly.

Without wasting time, he glanced inside the dry well, then leaped down into it.

Just like before, there was the cold water of the deep pool, but Qin Qi was already familiar with it. He quickly reached the deepest part and arrived once again at the ancient temple where the scenery suddenly opened up.

"Whew..."

After entering the ancient temple, Qin Qi took a light breath, "Ha, Miss Duan, we meet again. As discussed yesterday, remember to help me gather the air essence. After it's over, I'll help you get out!"

After speaking, he sat in the corner, waiting quietly as he had last time.

Inside the statue, Duan Meng could naturally hear Qin Qi's words.

She sneered, "Gather the air essence? Fine, I'll gather it for you. The more arrogant you become, the more you'll regret it when I'm free!"

"It's just a pity that gathering so much air essence will inevitably consume a lot of energy. Never mind, I'll just put it all down to this kid!"

She no longer hesitated.

Gradually gathering the air essence, it surged towards Qin Qi.

Qin Qi indeed felt the encirclement of the air essence.

He smiled, joy flooding his face.

"It has come!"

Qin Qi immersed himself fully in the experience, immediately commencing the cultivation of the Source Celestial Scripture.

Following his own train of thought.

While continuously condensing True Qi, he also released True Qi outside his body...

This was undoubtedly a consumption of the air essence and posed a great challenge. Fortunately, this dry well was indeed a wonderful place.

After more than an hour.

Qin Qi had not encountered any side effects that result from dispersing True Qi.

"Truly effective!"

Qin Qi's eyes gleamed, smiling broadly, "This method works, I can distinctly feel that my Dantian, where True Qi is condensed, has undergone subtle changes compared to before!"

Duan Meng inside the statue had initially been pondering how she would deal with Qin Qi afterward.

She also noticed the transformation of Qin Qi's aura.

"Wait, what is this kid refining?"

Her position was extraordinary, which gave her a perspective that exceeded ordinary people.

Soon, she noticed something amiss, "This kid is absorbing True Qi while simultaneously dispersing it. Wait, is he using this method to enhance his True Qi capacity?"

"Hold on, cultivation methods to increase True Qi capacity are rare in the world. Each one is a treasure. Moreover, is this kid crazy? Does he not know how dangerous this kind of cultivation is?"

She was well aware that with such cultivation, a single misstep could cost one's life.

"Boy from the Qin family, don't play with fire. You can die, but not now!" Duan Meng was deeply worried.

She did not want Qin Qi gone before she had a chance to escape.

But soon.

She realized her worries were unfounded.

Because the aura around Qin Qi was gradually undergoing a transforming change.

This change was undoubtedly an improvement.

"This kid, did he succeed?" Duan Meng's mind was in turmoil, "This heaven-defying technique, can he actually cultivate it? How, how is it possible!"

But soon, her alarmed feelings turned to excitement.

"Why should I care if he can cultivate it? Although his success surprised me, what does it matter if he becomes a formidable dead man?"

As she watched Qin Qi gradually stand up, Duan Meng's inner cold laughter became more rampant.

In a moment, Qin Qi would come to help her escape.

She had endured for so long, just to wait for this kid to set her free.

At this moment, Qin Qi was also full of smiles, "It really worked, the True Qi inside me expanded so much. Not bad..."

As his words fell, he looked towards the distant statue of Duan Meng.

Duan Meng smiled secretly, "Come, quickly destroy the statue and fulfill your promise!"

However, after getting up, Qin Qi did not do as she expected and come over to destroy the statue.

Instead, he folded his arms, watching her quietly.

"What is this kid up to?" A sense of foreboding emerged in Duan Meng's heart.

Qin Qi folded his arms, feeling the surrounding temperature suddenly drop, knowing that this was Duan Meng's anger.

Yet Qin Qi sneered, "Heh, you didn't really think I'd help you get out, did you? Or rather, you didn't think I'd be stupid enough not to know what you'd do once freed, right?"

"Isn't your mind full of the idea that once I destroy the statue, you'll immediately kill me?"

"Heh, I'm just not saving you!"

Upon hearing these words, Duan Meng was so furious that her chest almost exploded.

Qin Qi, Qin Qi actually played me again?

Moreover, this was an outright provocation, a thorough provocation!

In an instant, the temperature inside the dry well dropped to freezing point.

Qin Qi also shivered a bit, retracting his smile, no longer playful, "Alright, thanks for the hospitality, I'll be taking my leave first!"

He was a bit scared too, knowing that inside this dry well, the mysterious woman could indeed pose a threat to him.

With a leap, he was once again headed towards the top of the well.

After escaping the well, Qin Qi did not linger but exchanged greetings with the Chen family and walked down the mountain.

The mysterious woman's lazy voice echoed, "Haha, I really thought you were dumb enough to help her escape!"

"You didn't ask anything more, because you knew I couldn't possibly save her, right?" Qin Qi chuckled.

The mysterious woman's laughter was as pleasant as a chime, "I raised you personally, if you didn't even have such judgment, then my teaching was in vain."

"However, if you keep refusing to save her, you'll miss the chance to talk about conquering this woman."

Qin Qi shrugged, "Until I have absolute strength, I won't take that risk!"

"Need my help?" The mysterious woman spoke lazily.

"How would you help me?" Qin Qi blinked curiously.

The mysterious woman spoke with a hint of a smile, "Have you forgotten what I'm best at? Reading minds, finding weaknesses..."

"I know an absolute weakness of this woman, and with this weakness, even if you free her, she won't be able to do anything to you!"
