Chapter 784 - 548: Intimidation and Retaliation (Part 2)
"Qin Tian, in three days, the Dan Tower will hold a certification ceremony for all new Seventh Grade Alchemists within the Empire over the past five years. I want to invite you to attend." Dongfang Mingyue held his hand, her eyes filled with anticipation:
"Certification for alchemists below Seventh Grade can be completed at the Dan Tower branches in the Nine Great Star Realms. But once reaching Seventh Grade, certification must be done at the headquarters of the Royal Alchemy Association, and the badge of a Seventh Grade Alchemist is personally awarded by the Master of the Dan Tower or the Great Elder, which truly signifies recognition from the entire Empire’s alchemy community."
She paused and added, "And there’s another benefit to attending the ceremony. The Dan Tower headquarters allows each new Seventh Grade Alchemist to freely select three Tier Seven pill formulas from the vault, which is also a way for the headquarters to attract talent and solidify its core position."
"In three days then..." Qin Tian thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, "Alright, I’ll be there on time."
Actually, his vacation was only three days, and according to regulations, he was supposed to return to Mingwang Planet in three days to rejoin his unit.
But this was an important moment for Dongfang Mingyue, and as her newly confirmed boyfriend, it would be unacceptable to be absent.
Moreover, he was worried about Dongfang Mingyue’s safety.
He remembered that a mysterious force had always been eyeing her and Dongfang Haoyue with hostility, wanting to eliminate them.
Recently, Dongfang Mingyue had been staying in the Dan Tower, with its protection ensuring her safety.
But the Seventh Grade certification ceremony would likely be grand and widely attended, meaning Dongfang Mingyue would have to leave the Dan Tower. Then, enemies might seize the opportunity, and he must be by her side to ward off any danger.
"It seems I’ll have to request leave from my superior." Qin Tian thought to himself.
It’s just an extra day off, and with his relationship with Yang Zheng, the latter wouldn’t give him a hard time.
Seeing him agree, Dongfang Mingyue’s eyes immediately curved into crescents, and she wrapped her arm around his, her tone cheerful: "Wonderful! I’ll introduce you to a few friends I’ve been studying with, and some elders who have taken great care of me."
Qin Tian gently held her hand, his tone tender: "Alright, I’ll do as you say."

Three layers of independent alchemy rooms
Stuart took out a communicator and dialed a number
"Help me investigate someone."
A deep voice came from the other side.
"Name, general identity."
"His name is Qin Tian, and his identity is a Royal Major General, Tier Seven Spiritualist."
After the words, the other side was silent for a few seconds, then spoke:
"Do you have a grudge against him?"
Stuart gritted his teeth and said, "I want him dead!!!"
"You’d better give up on this idea."
The other side decisively said, "This Qin Tian doesn’t need to be looked into. I know him. He’s a Major General of the Seventh Bureau, currently serving as Guardian Envoy at the Ice Extreme Pass on Mingwang Planet. Not long ago, the Empire sent nearly 500 geniuses from the Gold and Holy Blood Clans into the Ice God Treasure Vault, and they almost suffered a total annihilation. They could only come out alive thanks to one person, and that person is Qin Tian."
What!
Upon hearing this, Stuart’s face turned extremely ugly.
He hadn’t expected Qin Tian to have that kind of experience.
Not to mention how Qin Tian led these geniuses back alive, just what he did forged good relations with many Gold and Holy Blood clans.
Moreover, he could not ignore that behind Qin Tian stood a terrifying existence—the Seventh Bureau.
"If you act personally, can you kill him?" Stuart asked unwillingly.
"I can’t do it, not even the Tier Seven Holy Blood can kill him."
There’s a heavy note in the deep voice, "This Qin Tian personally killed several Tier Seven lineal members of the Shinguji Clan."
What!
How is that possible!!!
Upon hearing this, Stuart’s eyes were filled with awe.
Holy Blood, that’s the most invincible存在 of the same tier. Even the top Gold bloodline cannot stir waves in front of same-tier Holy Blood.
However, this Qin Tian can actually kill Tier Seven Holy Bloods.
This simply overturns his understanding.
"Are you sure, how is that possible?" Stuart asked incredulously.
"This matter has long spread in the circle. You just haven’t been keeping up because buried in alchemy. I remind you, don’t provoke this Qin Tian. I checked his track record. Before he was 20, it was almost blank, but within three years, he skyrocketed not only breaking through to Tier Seven, but also jumping several levels from an ordinary serviceman to become a Royal Major General. This kind of person definitely has an extraordinary background. I advise you to stay away from him, and..."
Bzzt bzzt bzzt
The voice on the other end hadn’t finished before Stuart directly hung up, his face becoming even darker.
He admitted he really underestimated Qin Tian.
He didn’t realize this person actually had such fearsome capabilities, with several same-tier Holy Blood deaths by his hand and his background unfathomable.
But...so what
The person he wants dead will eventually die.
Stuart’s expression turned sinister, a trace of black energy floated in his eyes.
"After all I’ve done for you, now it’s time for you to do something for me."

Inside the hotel
Qin Tian swiped the room card, walked into the room, and saw Robert sitting upright in a chair.
Seeing him come in, Robert immediately stood up and bowed respectfully:
"Boss."
Qin Tian closed the door, a smile playing on his lips:
"Robert, how’s the information search going? You should have an understanding of the current environment now."
Robert nodded:
"I’ve gained some understanding."
"How much do you know about me right now?" Qin Tian asked with interest.
Robert tapped his smart wristwatch, a massive holographic screen floated between the two, displaying information sections full of news, messages, and intelligence about Qin Tian.
Qin Tian carefully examined it, some of which were public news and info on the Star Net, and others were clearly secret intelligence.
"Where did you get these pieces of secret intelligence?"
Qin Tian pointed to those secret pieces and asked.
Robert: "The Dark Net."
Dark Net?
Qin Tian mused, remembering Li Qi had mentioned a hidden network beneath the Star Net, accessible only by a few, known as the Dark Net.
Compared to the openness of the Star Net, the Dark Net was more mysterious, less trackable, even Li Qi, living long in the underground dark world, could only post and receive tasks, pay for intelligence on the Dark Net, anything deeper was beyond Li Qi’s grasp.
Yet Robert effortlessly infiltrated the Dark Net and got so much data about him.
As expected, with Robert’s level of intelligence, he can definitely become a super hacker.
"Robert, do you think you could potentially control someone’s entire information through their Star Net account, including bank account passwords and such?" Qin Tian suddenly asked.
If so, he’d never have to worry about money again.
Running low, just transfer from the Shinguji and Luoho Clans, turning these annoying Holy Blood Clans into his treasury.
"Sorry boss, I can’t do that."
Robert shook his head: "Currently, the Empire’s Star Net security technology is derived from the main god system of the Aux civilization. With my current capabilities, I still can’t break through it."
"I see, that’s okay."
Qin Tian wasn’t disappointed, if it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work, there are plenty of other ways for him to earn money.
Besides, Robert himself is a super hacker and super engineer, any equipment he devours, its materials and technology can be deconstructed and extracted.
In the future, he can definitely set up a tech or arms company centered around Robert, with tech as backing, its prospects even brighter than Lingfeng Trading Company.
"Come sit, I’ll continue reinforcing you."
Qin Tian indicated for Robert to bring a chair over, then continued reinforcing with the Power of the Martial Immortal.
The realm for Robert’s growth is still enormously vast, he eagerly anticipated what terrifying war machine Robert will become once strengthened to the limit by the Power of the Martial Immortal.
Time swiftly passed in the reinforcement process, until late at night, Qin Tian suddenly froze mid-reinforcement.
He rose and stood by the window, gazing towards the Dan Tower direction, lips curling slightly:
"Whether my senses are off, we’ll find out soon."
