Then let them show their loyalty!

Chapter 652 Zhao Ji's Second Weakness (The Last 18 Hours of the Lottery)
Thinking of this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but look up at Zhao Ji.

I have to say that Zhao Ji is truly the most beautiful woman Qiu Tu has ever seen.

Putting aside her unique temperament, just talking about her appearance, from a distance, she might be no different from those ordinary top beauties.

But if you look closely, you will find that her skin is delicate and white, as if there is a soft light or filter. Just standing there, she is like an iceberg standing alone, exuding indescribable beauty and coldness.

Coupled with her temperament and figure, she doesn't seem to be in the same league as the others when standing together.

Also, don't forget that apart from being beautiful, the most important thing about Zhao Ji is that her talent, ability, status and strength are all top-notch.

It can be said that except for not marrying Qiu Tu, her life is almost perfect.

As a result, now she actually started to have that kind of feelings towards Qiu Tu?
Thinking of this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but feel moved.

As a result, at this moment, Zhao Ji's eyes fell on him indifferently, and then she uttered a word coldly, "Three."

Qiu Tu:? ?
Qiu Tu was stunned for a moment, then quickly protested, "I didn't think anything. Why do I have to count down?"

Zhao Ji glanced at him coldly, not even bothering to argue, "Whether you have thought about it or not, you know it yourself."

After that, Zhao Ji changed the subject. She looked away with her cold, deep eyes, and pointed to the courtyard in front of her, "Practice the "Open Heaven" again, and show it to me."

Seeing Zhaoji talking about serious matters, Qiu Tu also put away his playful heart. He first said "hmm", and then began to practice according to Zhaoji's requirements.
Zhao Ji knew that Qiu Tu had learned the "Opening of the Sky" thanks to Lajiluo.

Others may not know how much importance Zhao Ji places on "Kai Tian", but Lajiro knows it.

Lariluo has been trying to bring Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji together for a while. (Extra)

Therefore, when she and Zhao Ji went to help Qiu Tu cover up and refine the "Boundless Heart Sea Area", Lariluo secretly told Zhao Ji about this matter. (Chapter 641)
Sure enough, this successfully aroused Zhao Ji's interest.

After she and Qiu Tu slaughtered the eighth-order evil god and returned to East City, Zhao Ji took the initiative to ask to see the "Kai Tian" that Qiu Tu was practicing, to see if Lariluo was lying to her.

Qiu Tu relied on his third golden finger to learn "Kai Tian" for free, so of course there was no problem at all, and he was not afraid of Zhao Ji's inspection at all.

So, after seeing with her own eyes that Qiu Tu had learned the "beginning" in just over a month, Zhao Ji couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Of course, Zhao Ji didn't say anything, no matter how she looked. Qiu Tu figured out the emotion of "shocked".

After all, with Zhao Ji's personality, she didn't make any comments. She just quietly watched the sword marks left by Qiu Tu for two minutes, which was enough to prove her emotions.

And now, Zhao Ji asked Qiu Tu to use "Open the Sky" again to verify it again, which further proved Qiu Tu's guess.

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu practiced the opening of the sky again according to Zhao Ji's request.

Perhaps the two domains are slowly merging, and the force that the "marginal area" can withstand has become much stronger recently.

Qiu Tu suppressed his strength to the sixth level, and then used "Open the Sky". Although it still had the effect of destroying the world, it could no longer shatter the void.

After using this move, Zhao Ji's eyelashes moved slightly, like ice crystals swaying in the morning light, and her cold eyes looked at Qiu Tu quietly.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu also looked at Zhao Ji expectantly, waiting for the evaluation of this iceberg.

After a while, Zhao Ji finally spoke slowly. She said calmly, "Not bad. You are already a bit like me. An ordinary eighth-level warrior should not be your opponent."

Qiu Tu:
Qiu Tu was silent for a moment, then silently deducted a 6 in his heart.

It turns out that the king is the king.

She may have melted a little before, but it didn't change her nature.

At this time, perhaps sensing Qiu Tu's emotions, Zhao Ji explained lightly.

She stood there, her posture upright and elegant, looking a little otherworldly, "Don't underestimate the sword skill of "Kai Tian"."

"This is what I learned from my "God Technique"."

"It's just that my 'God Technique' is too powerful. So, I integrated my understanding of it into my sword technique, thus forming this sword technique."

"So, to some extent, it can be considered a 'pseudo-divine skill'."

Hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu keenly grasped one of the important words. He couldn't help but blinked, "God's skill? What is that?"

Zhao Ji heard this, took two steps forward, lowered her body, and while checking the sword marks that Qiu Tu had just left on the ground, she explained calmly, "Although the sixth to eighth levels are called gods, they are actually just flattering themselves."

"In the Origin of the World, there is a standard positioning for levels 6-8 and above 9."

"The real name of rank 6-8 is actually "Earth Gods". This is because they manage the region on behalf of the gods, and their strength is linked to the region they control."

"Their strength is completely different when they are in the area they control and when they are out of the area they control. This is because their strength comes from the area they control."

Zhao Ji paused for a moment, then explained it in a more vivid way, "In your human world, you can compare the "Earth God" to the administrator of a city or a state."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu nodded slightly to show his understanding.

Seeing this, Zhao Ji continued, "And the 'Gods' above the 9th level are no longer restricted by the 'region' and begin to master some of the 'world authority'."

"A 'god' often has his own 'territory' under his jurisdiction. Within that 'territory', he is a true god."

"In your human world, it can be understood that they have entered the center and started to manage the affairs of a certain vertical field in this country."

Having said that, Zhao Ji stood up, then looked at Qiu Tu and continued to explain, "As for the "God Skill", it is a powerful ability that the gods obtain from their own "control field."

"This ability, when certain conditions are met, can even be called 'world rules'. Therefore, this is also the most powerful means by which 'gods of heaven' are distinguished from 'gods of earth'."

"World rules." Qiu Tu recited the word silently.

Zhao Ji nodded slightly, then pointed at the long sword in Qiu Tu's hand, and said, "For example, in 'Open Heaven', there is a world rule called 'Cut Off'."

"It is precisely because of this world rule that unless it encounters a rule of the "same level", all objects will be "cut off" by it."

"This is the real power of the sword move 'Open Heaven'."

After saying that, Zhao Ji's deep and cold eyes fell on Qiu Tu and said, "So, it is already extremely rare that you can resemble me by even a little bit."

"After all, you are not just similar to me, but also to the rules of the world."

After hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu couldn't help but blink.

To be honest, Zhao Ji explained so much, but in Qiu Tu's opinion, she only had one purpose: to show off.

But it doesn’t matter, Qiu Tu already knew how powerful Zhao Ji was.

After all, there are peerless geniuses in this world who can rise from the first level to the ninth level, far stronger than those of the same level.

And Zhao Ji is obviously that kind of peerless genius, even the strongest among those peerless geniuses.

And more importantly, Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji are not enemies, let alone competitors.

On the contrary, the two are partners and allies.

The reason why Qiu Tu practiced "Kai Tian" here was not to surpass Zhao Ji, but to win Zhao Ji's favor.

After all, this woman Zhao Ji has no other shortcomings. Her only shortcoming is that she is easily influenced and only listens to auspicious words.

Although Qiu Tu is not good at other things, blowing women is his forte!

So, what's wrong with Zhao Ji pretending to be cool? Qiu Tu just wants to make her feel comfortable pretending.

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu came back to his senses, and then his acting skills exploded. He looked at Zhao Ji with an embarrassed expression on his face and said, "Sister Zhao Ji, please stop praising me."

"How can I be even half as much like you? Even if I were half as much as you, it would be enough to make me laugh."

"After all, in my opinion, all the gods in this 'Boundless Heart Sea' are not as good as a single hair of yours."

"If they are the vast galaxy, then you are the sun hanging high in the sky, bringing endless light to the entire "Boundless Heart Sea". "

Zhao Ji:.
To be honest, Qiu Tu's flattery is a bit exaggerated, and some people with thin skin may even pick their feet in embarrassment. But Zhao Ji is the one who will take it.

So even though her expression turned cold, she even criticized Qiu Tu lightly, "Don't talk about things that everyone knows."

However, from the slightly curved corners of her eyes, one could still see the happiness in her heart.

And her next action made Qiu Tu even more certain that he was licking her very comfortably.

After criticizing Qiu Tu, Zhao Ji coughed and said,

"Although your talent is limited, your learning ability is still acceptable."

"More importantly, you have a good attitude towards learning. So, I plan to teach you one more trick."

Hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu's eyes couldn't help but light up slightly.

Zhao Ji, as the "reincarnation of a god", and a "reincarnation of a god" who was at the top of the social status and strength in her previous life, had too many treasures. If she let out a little bit of them, it would be enough for Qiu Tu to have a good meal.

So he couldn't help but look at Zhao Ji and asked, "What are you going to teach me, Sister Zhao Ji?"

Looking at Qiu Tu's expectant eyes, Zhao Ji said lightly, "Prisoner Heaven Seal."

"That's the same sealing technique I used on Emperor Man before."

At this point, Zhao Ji began to demonstrate this new "pseudo-god skill" to Qiu Tu.
The days of study are always short.

Especially when with Zhao Ji, it was even shorter.

After all, although Zhao Ji was a qualified king, she was not a qualified teacher.

With her talent, she can learn things at a glance, which would be like incomprehensible books to ordinary people.

Qiu Tu had a hard time understanding what she had said, not to mention learning it. But she felt that just one explanation was enough. She didn't want to repeat it a second time.

Fortunately, Qiu Tu had "getting something for nothing". Although he didn't understand, it didn't stop him from memorizing all the steps and explanations. He completed the rest by "getting something for nothing".

After finishing the explanation, Zhao Ji, like last time, took out a jade pendant from the "dimensional space", placed it on her forehead, recorded all her insights, and then handed it to Qiu Tu.

She looked at Qiu Tu coldly, and then said, "Everyone has their own different talents."

"Just because you are talented in the sword art of 'Open Heaven' doesn't mean you are also talented in 'Prison Heaven Seal'."

"After all, there aren't many all-rounders like me."

Qiu Tu: 6
Zhao Ji didn't care about Qiu Tu's attitude, but continued coldly, "And I also heard the report from your female subordinate just now."

"You will definitely be very busy in the next two days."

"So, you don't need to have too much psychological pressure on the "Prisoner Heaven Seal", just learn it slowly."

After hearing Zhao Ji's words, there was no change on Qiu Tu's face, but his heart was as weird as it could be.

Zhao Ji's concern was very reasonable to others, but it was completely useless to Qiu Tu.

Because the biggest effect of his third golden finger "get something for nothing" is that it does not take up Qiu Tu's own time. The second biggest effect is to learn and do things "at Qiu Tu's peak state".

Therefore, as long as Qiu Tu can theoretically learn this "Prisoner of Heaven Seal", then "getting something for nothing" will definitely allow Qiu Tu to learn it in the shortest time possible, and it will not affect Qiu Tu's other things.

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but glance at Zhao Ji.

Through today’s events, Qiu Tu discovered Zhao Ji’s second “weakness”.

In addition to liking to hear compliments from others, Zhao Ji also has a liking for people with high talents.

After all, when Qiu Tu's talent was judged to be low, Zhao Ji did not treat him well. But now, she is obviously much friendlier.

If this is because she has a better impression of Qiu Tu, Qiu Tu recalled Zhao Ji's attitude towards Tang Feifei and Qing Lan.

After discovering that Tang Feifei had awakened "Absolute Perception", Zhao Ji's attitude towards Tang Feifei became much friendlier.

Not to mention Qinglan. Qinglan's talent of 90 points made Zhaoji always treat Qinglan well.

Qiu Tu hadn’t discovered this pattern before. Now that he has come to a conclusion, he looks back and finds clues everywhere.

"It seems that if you want to further gain Zhaoji's favor, you can't just flatter her, you also need to prove your talent."

'And there are many kinds of talents. Zhao Ji obviously likes "learning talent", that is, "understanding".'

"So, if I can show more of my "understanding", it is very likely that I can further improve her evaluation of me."

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu made a decision in his heart.

'Go all out and learn the "Prisoner Heaven Seal" as soon as possible. This will not only gain control of the Manhuang, but also increase Zhaoji's favorability, killing two birds with one stone.'

'As for the matter of the "Puppet Ants", we must not take it lightly.'

Although Qiu Tu had been learning the "Prisoner's Heaven Seal" from Zhao Ji for two hours, he had not forgotten Zhao Ji's previous reminder.

A catastrophic creature that can cause a disaster and leave other eighth-level gods helpless is definitely not that simple.

If they were to take it lightly just because they could control these "puppet ants", then Qiu Tu's side would likely be in huge trouble.

And you have to know that it is not just the "Puppet Ants" that are threatening Qiu Tu's side. The mysterious person hiding behind the "Puppet Ants" and constantly providing resources must also be watched out.

"It seems that we still need to improve Guan Xiao's strength as soon as possible. After her strength is improved, she will be able to deal with this trouble more flexibly."

Thinking of this, after finishing this "study", Qiu Tu chatted with "teacher" Zhao Ji for a while and then left the villa.

What he didn't notice was that when he turned around and left the yard, Zhao Ji's eyes followed him, with a hint of curiosity and interest in them.

"I wonder how long it will take him to learn this pseudo-divine skill."

"Two months? One month? It can't be half a month, right?"

While thinking this, Zhao Ji walked back to her room, sat cross-legged, and continued to practice.
In this "Trial of God", top combat power is the key to everything.

Therefore, she must become stronger as soon as possible to win this "God Trial", obtain the "God Status", and regain the "God's Throne".
Time flies and two days pass.

During these two days, Qiu Tu was learning the "Heaven Prison Seal" by "getting something for nothing", and at the same time, he was investigating the "Puppet Ants" and the mysterious man with Guan Xiao.

"Prisoner's Heaven Seal" is indeed a pseudo-divine skill like "Open Heaven", and it is extremely difficult to learn.

Even though Qiu Tu's strength has improved a lot, it will still take about 10 days.

As for the mysterious man, it is relatively easy to investigate.

"So, it has been basically confirmed that the mysterious man is the second son of Shu Zu, the master of Siyuan Pavilion, and the eighth-rank great evil god Shu Xia?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's question, Guan Xiao knelt at Qiu Tu's feet, patting his legs, and said, "Yes, sir."

"That Shu Xia was very secretive and careful. Apart from providing the "Infinite Divine Crystal" to the "Puppet Ant Queen", he never showed up in front of outsiders."

"But my 'Insect Queen' can control the 'Puppet Ants'."

"He is defenseless against the Puppet Ants, which is equivalent to being defenseless against me."

"So, it didn't take long for me to track him down and figure out his identity."

Guan Xiao is now a third-level Cataclysm, with two abilities. The second ability, "Infection," is still slowly spreading among the "Puppet Ants," waiting to take effect. However, this does not affect her first ability to control insects.

So, after spending some money, Guan Xiao quietly controlled several "puppet ants" and then lurked in the insect swarm to gather information.

It is precisely because we have penetrated into the enemy's interior.

That's why Guan Xiao was able to get information about "Shu Xia" so quickly.

Reaching out and gently touching Guan Xiao's hair, Qiu Tu asked, "I have also provided you with a lot of resources in the past two days."

"How long will it take for your 'infection' to take effect?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Guan Xiao closed her eyes like a little pet and gently rubbed her head against Qiu Tu's palm, enjoying it, and then said,
"Now more and more pseudo-people are 'infected'. Even three 'priests' have been infected."

"This also causes the infection rate to accelerate."

"I estimate that in another five days, we will be able to completely control the entire insect swarm."

Hearing Guan Xiao's words, Qiu Tu nodded slightly, and said with a firm look, "Then wait another five days."

Guan Xiao nodded after hearing this. Then she looked up at Qiu Tu, opened her red lips and said, "But, sir, I feel that Shu Xia is likely to lure the "Puppet Ant Queen" to attack during this period."

"Because... according to incomplete statistics, the number of "fake people" has grown to 7."

"It is estimated that it is likely to exceed 10 today."

"That's 10 Cataclysm Creatures. They can destroy the world."

Hearing Guan Xiao's words, Qiu Tu's expression slowly disappeared. Then he pondered for a moment and said, "Then order the "dizhou" adjacent to the disaster area to slowly withdraw the people and troops and leave enough buffer zones."

"Also, send those stubborn members of the aristocratic private army that we captured earlier over there and have them guard the city."

"The puppet ants are not human beings and will not accept surrender. They will defend whether they want to or not."

“There’s always room for recycling.”

"If they are lucky enough to survive the invasion of the puppet ants, then we will just set them free and write off their crimes."

After hearing Qiu Tu's instructions, Guan Xiao quickly responded, "Yes, sir."

At the same time, in the disaster zone, the nest of the "Puppet Ants".

At this time, the nest, which was originally only the size of a honeycomb, had somehow become as big as a house.

It was wrapped around an anti-government armed base, like a huge, creepy hornet's nest.

As for the members of this anti-government armed force, from the leaders to the soldiers, all were controlled by it and turned into fake people.

At this time, these pseudo-people were all like normal armies, patrolling the entire block vigilantly to prevent anyone from posing a threat to the queen ant.

Inside the base, a man wearing a black hooded cloak was communicating with the queen ant.

The man lowered his voice, with a hint of threat in his words, "I don't care if there will be any qualitative change after you reach 10."

"I have trained you for so long, just to invade the Northwest Territory as soon as possible."

"If you delay until the two domains merge, our Siyuan Pavilion's personnel will come in, what else do you need to do?"

"And what impact do you think your third-level peak strength can have on the battle situation?"

"Stop dreaming."

"I order you to immediately invade the Northwest Sanctuary tomorrow!"

At this time, the person sitting opposite the black-clothed and hooded man was about the same size as a human, with the lower body structure of an ant, but the upper body was a cute-looking girl with a little baby fat.

This is obviously the "mature" puppet queen ant.
What no one expected was that this queen ant was actually a young mother.
