The head master has a new female apprentice

Chapter 146: Brother Zhou, Lingku Mountain, it’s Lingku Mountain (6k)

The next moment, a poisonous insect shot out from Tan Qiang's body at an extremely fast speed, but Gao Xuan reacted quickly as well. He grabbed it and crushed it to death.

Then, he gently closed Tan Qiang's eyes, stood up with a sad face, and then looked at the square box thrown aside.

"Be careful!" Cao Zhengyang reminded, his eyes full of vigilance.

Gao Xuan nodded slightly, waved his hand, and the box floated up.

But the moment he opened it, his pupils suddenly shrank, his whole body trembled, his eyes turned red, full of pain, but he quickly closed them again.

Without saying another word, he just carried Tan Qiang's body and slowly returned towards Jinyang Peak.

Cao Zhengyang stood there, his eyes following Gao Xuan's lonely back with a complicated expression.

Although the lid closed quickly, he still saw what was inside the box.

That's a finger!
A child's finger!
…………

The two people who had eaten and drunk their fill and were preparing to return to Xiaoling Peak also heard about Tan Qiang's incident and felt uncomfortable.

Jinyang Peak had a total of five core disciples, two of whom died in this instant, and the chief senior brother was completely depressed.

Zhou Qing still remembers that day when Senior Brother Du Kui said he dreamed that his fellow junior brothers were in danger, so he rushed to the Soul Lighthouse early in the morning to check the situation.

I also took this opportunity to go together and bind myself to Elder Jiang Pu.

Who would have thought that such a short time has passed and things and people have already changed? It's really sad.

Half a month later, Zhou Qing used the wandering souls in the gravity zone as sparring partners and finally mastered the fourth move. Its power was beyond imagination and could be used as a trump card.

During this period, although there were a few times when the wandering souls ignored it and went deeper, the tree did not look tall, but it was so difficult to climb it.

Especially since he had no spiritual power and consciousness, every time he got halfway up, he would be shot in the head by the annoying corpse wax crow.

Even though it's a simulation, we're acquaintances now, so can't you give me a chance?

Then he looked at his panel and thought for a while.

He himself is already in the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. During this period, with the help of moonlight training and the top-grade spirit stones in his hands, his cultivation has been steadily advancing. However, if he wants to break through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, he will probably need another opportunity.

After all, staying in a comfortable nest to practice is too slow.

Furthermore, the probability of the Nascent Soul Realm ignoring him is only 11% at present, which is too low.

It is necessary to brush out some ignored points as soon as possible. When it reaches a certain level, this is also a trump card.

There are also skill fragments. Now we only need one piece to synthesize a new skill, which also requires the help of brushing points to obtain.

"I need to go out for a while and take this opportunity to break through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm in one fell swoop!" Zhou Qing quickly made a decision in his mind.

With the core disciples dying one after another, Zhou Qing felt an unprecedented sense of urgency.

He could feel that it might not be long before the end of the Spirit Transformation Realm began.

By then, it will really become a Shura hell. He must improve his cultivation as soon as possible so that he can protect himself in the upcoming storm.

"If I go out, I must bring someone with me, and their cultivation level cannot be too high, otherwise I won't be able to earn points!"

Zhou Qing thought for a while.

The talent skill [Reduce Presence] can only be spawned in a multiplayer and exciting environment.

And in such an environment, there is at least one person who knows you, but for various reasons he is inadvertently ignored. This will reduce your sense of presence and thus gain points.

After all, this is a different concept from simply finding a place to hide and avoid the enemy.

Just like the last time after the four flowers gathered at the top of the head, Master and Second Senior Sister took him to hide in the mountains, while many Divine Incarnations and Nascent Souls outside rushed to the desert frantically.

At that time, the master and senior sister were concentrating on observing the outside environment, and their attention was drawn there, which allowed him to gain a large number of points and a new skill fragment.

"Currently, there's a 90% chance that Qi Condensation, Foundation Establishment, and Golden Core will ignore me. Bring someone you know and find a stimulating environment with many people. Maybe you can spawn me."

Zhou Qing's eyes lit up, but soon his brows furrowed.

Now he is among the top ten people on the Cang Yan Dao Palace's must-kill list. Who dares to team up with him?
Isn't this simply courting death?

If we encounter danger, who will protect whom?
After much thought, I realized that the only person who might travel with him seemed to be my third senior brother.

However, this guy is too lively, and as a Yuanying realm cultivator, it is difficult to ignore him.

Now they have dug up someone else's ancestral grave. If the two of them were to stay together, I wonder how many people would be excited to come and deal with them.

"Senior Brother Zhou, Senior Brother Zhou—"

Just when Zhou Qing was feeling a little annoyed, Lu Yaoyao's excited shouts suddenly rang out from outside.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Lu Yaoyao running in excitedly with a map in her hand.

"If you have anything, just send me a message. Why are you here suddenly?" Zhou Qing asked puzzledly.

Lu Yaoyao's face was full of joy. Without saying a word, she immediately spread out the map on the table, then excitedly stretched out her finger and pointed at a place on the map.

"Spirit Skull Mountain, it's Spirit Skull Mountain! I was wondering why it felt so familiar. I've been thinking about it these past few days, and finally I remember you mentioned it back then. This Spirit Skull Mountain..."

Lu Yaoyao had just said this when she suddenly realized something. She stopped talking abruptly, the smile on her face froze instantly, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes.

Zhou Qing was confused by her sudden reaction and asked, "What did I say?"

"No, nothing, Brother Zhou, let's go to Lingku Mountain. There are opportunities there, great opportunities!"

Lu Yaoyao quickly changed the subject, grabbed Zhou Qing's arm, and said with anticipation in her eyes.

Zhou Qingze looked at the map again, his eyes becoming serious.

Because Senior Sister Luo Xue was brutally killed by Sima Yaoji here, and Senior Brother Du Kui also escaped from here with serious injuries.

Moreover, this place belongs to the territory of Cang Yan Taoist Palace. Hundreds of miles away from Lingku Mountain, there is a mining area of ​​theirs.

"What kind of opportunities could there be?" Zhou Qing asked with a frown.

Lu Yaoyao blinked and said quickly, "I heard that a very powerful master fell there. He was quite accomplished in the art of prohibition and had successfully set up five-color prohibitions many times."

Zhou Qing's eyes lit up when he heard this. After all, he had always had a strong interest and yearning for formations and restrictions. He quickly asked, "Are you sure?"

Seeing that Zhou Qing was interested, Lu Yaoyao nodded repeatedly with a look of confidence.

"Brother Zhou, maybe the other party's inheritance is there. Let's go look for it. We will definitely find it!" At this time, her eyes were full of excitement.

Zhou Qing looked carefully at the location of Lingku Mountain again.

The real advanced formations are divided into nine colors, one color is the weakest and nine colors are the strongest. Most of the formations and restrictions he has seen are almost colorless and cannot even reach the lowest grade.

The most amazing thing I have ever seen is the five-colored altar in the secret passage. I don’t know where the second uncle got it from.

He also guessed that the other five coffins probably contained unimaginably powerful restrictions, so much so that the second uncle had to travel far away to study the art of restrictions.

Take the five-colored altar for example. With it, one can enter the Taiqing Sect's cave silently and perfectly avoid the surveillance of the gravity zone. This shows the magic of the forbidden technique.

If there really is such a master skilled in prohibitions who has inherited his skills at Skull Mountain...

Thinking of this, Zhou Qing couldn't help but feel a strong desire to explore.

wrong--

Soon, Zhou Qing seemed to realize something. He looked at Lu Yaoyao with a puzzled look on his face and asked, "Why haven't I heard of such a powerful master falling in Lingku Mountain?"

If there really was a master who could set up the five-color restriction and died there, such a major event would have caused the five sects to send people to search carefully over and over again. However, until now, he had never heard anyone mention it.

Maybe there may not even be such a master in the entire Shengwu Dynasty?

Faced with Zhou Qing's sudden questioning, Lu Yaoyao was obviously panicked, and even her eyes were a little evasive.

"Well, I, I heard from my master that this is a secret and ordinary people certainly won't know about it. Oh, don't worry about it. There is an opportunity there anyway. Let's go and take a look and we'll know," Lu Yaoyao stammered.

Zhou Qing looked at her like this, and immediately understood something in his heart, then shook his head.

It was obvious that this girl was lying. She just wanted to find an excuse to get him to take her out for a walk.

"I have something else to do, you can go find Senior Brother He Han!" Zhou Qing evaded.

When Lu Yaoyao saw Zhou Qing's perfunctory look, she immediately understood. She opened her mouth and wanted to explain something, but for a moment she didn't know where to start.

"Brother Zhou, please trust me just this once. Oh, Suanni, there are Suanni's precious bones there!"

Soon, Lu Yaoyao seemed to have thought of something and spoke quickly.

Zhou Qing suddenly looked at her and asked in shock: "Suanni? Are you sure?"

Lu Yaoyao thought for a moment, then said in a weak voice, "I think you once said... maybe there is."

Zhou Qing: "..."

He remembered that during the previous Yibao gathering of the Five Sects, due to the induction of the mental methods of "Silver Dragon Hand" and "Silver Dragon Step", he saw an ordinary stove in front of a street stall.

After [Daily Inspection], we know that its inner wall became extraordinary because it was once stained with the blood of a late-life Suanni.

Finally, with the help of the dried blood in the furnace, he made rapid progress in cultivating these two magical powers.

At that time, he had not yet established the foundation of the Heavenly Dao, and his own talent could only be described as mediocre, but it was enough to show the magic of that drop of blood.

"Senior Brother Zhou, let's go together. If you don't go, I will go alone. If you really get something good then, don't regret it!" Lu Yaoyao pretended to be angry.

Zhou Qingze looked thoughtful.

Although this matter sounds unreasonable and does not make sense at all, looking at Lu Yaoyao's confident look, it seems to be true.

And—Zhou Qing looked at Lu Yaoyao again, and his heart couldn't help but move.

Someone who is in the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm, familiar to him, trustworthy, and knows some of his secrets. Isn't this the ideal candidate he has been looking for?

However, she is the beloved disciple of the head teacher, and she herself has established the foundation of the Heavenly Dao. Her future achievements are limitless. How can he take her out to take risks?

If something unexpected happened, how would he explain to the head teacher?
Seeing Zhou Qing's hesitant look, Lu Yaoyao seemed to guess his concerns and quickly said, "Brother Zhou Qing, we can sneak out without telling anyone."

"And I've said it before, you're the only one I trust in the entire sect. No matter what happens, I won't blame you."

Zhou Qing couldn't help but smile bitterly. He really couldn't say such things casually. If the head teacher heard it, he would be miserable.

And what have I done to deserve your trust?

"you sure?"

Zhou Qing suddenly seemed to have made up his mind. He had been planning to go out anyway, but he had no idea where to go. Now that Lu Yaoyao insisted, he might as well go to Lingku Mountain.

If there really is any Suanni bone or a master's inheritance, it would be a great opportunity for me and should not be missed.

Facing Zhou Qing's sudden question, Lu Yaoyao was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted, her face full of surprise, and she nodded repeatedly and said, "I'm sure, no, I swear!"

"Don't swear so easily. The human tongue is poisonous!" Zhou Qing warned. He didn't like swearing easily. He always felt that it would bring him some inexplicable pressure.

Lu Yaoyao nodded obediently, indicating that she remembered it.

Zhou Qing thought for a moment and said, "I'll pack up and leave tomorrow. If you really want to go with me, we have to separate, one after the other, so we won't be seen easily."

"Okay, I'll also take this opportunity to exchange for some healing pills or something, just in case!" Lu Yaoyao said quickly.

After Zhou Qing reminded her of some details, Lu Yaoyao skipped away. Looking at her cheerful back, he suddenly became uneasy again.

I don’t know whether it is right or wrong to take her out this time?
Early the next morning, Zhou Qing left the mountain gate. Elder Wuzhu specifically told him to be cautious. After all, this child was very popular now, and everyone who saw him wanted to take a bite of him.

An hour later, Lu Yaoyao sneaked out of the mountain gate, her eyes full of excitement, and then left.

Looking at Lu Yaoyao's back as she left alone, Elder Wuzhu stroked his beard and sighed.

Unknowingly, these little guys have transformed and grown in this brutal war.

Now everyone can go out and explore on their own.

…………

Three days later, Mo Xingjian rushed back with a tired look on his face.

"Hey, Senior Brother Mo, you're back. Xiaohu did a great job this time and escaped unscathed. He must have come back a long time ago!" Elder Wuzhu praised.

When Mo Xingjian heard this, he was so angry that his teeth were itching.

He had only received the news in recent days, knowing that the guy had sneaked back a long time ago, causing him to wander around outside day and night until now.

"He didn't go out again after he came back, right?" Mo Xingjian asked hurriedly.

Elder Wuzhu shook his head and said, "He has been staying at Xiaoling Peak. Don't worry, he hasn't gone out and run around again."

Mo Xingjian nodded and immediately took out a whip and was about to go in. Elder Wuzhu seemed to have thought of something and quickly said, "But your other disciple has left."

Mo Xingjian immediately retracted his raised foot, his face filled with disbelief. He widened his eyes and asked, "Zhou Qing? Where did he go?"

Elder Wuzhu shook his head: "No."

Mo Xingjian suddenly closed his eyes, his chest heaving violently, white air coming out of his nose, trying to calm himself down.

If you go out at this moment, aren't you deliberately attracting hatred?

Those people are likely to vent their anger on you for everything that the third brother did.

"Which direction?" Mo Xingjian asked helplessly.

Elder Wuzhu immediately pointed to the northeast, and Mo Xingjian set off without saying a word.

"It's been three days, where are you going to chase him?" Elder Wuzhu shouted behind him.

Then he sighed and said to himself, "It's a good thing I didn't accept any disciples, otherwise I would be worried all day long."

About an hour later, Yan Xiaohu ran out in a hurry, looking nervous, and looking around from time to time, as if he had done something wrong.

As soon as he saw Elder Wuzhu, he hurried forward and asked anxiously, "Elder Wuzhu, is my master back?"

Elder Wuzhu looked at his furtive appearance, nodded, and said, "But he went out again. What are you doing?"

Hearing Elder Wuzhu's words, Yan Xiaohu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He then straightened his back and said with a heroic look, "Of course I'm going out to continue my work. I want to make sure that those scumbags from the Cang Yan Dao Palace run away with their tails between their legs whenever they hear my name, Sword Tyrant Yan Xiaohu."

When Elder Wuzhu heard this, he quickly advised, "You'd better not run around anymore. There are people in the Spiritual Transformation Realm chasing you."

"Don't worry, I've been back for over half a month. They should have gotten the news and given up on the chase. No one would have thought I'd sneak out and surprise them at this moment!"

Yan Xiaohu felt very proud, his eyes filled with excitement and madness.

Of course, there were also his own reasons. When I went to find the fourth brother today, I found out that he had secretly left three days ago.

She also left a letter asking him to help take care of the old hen.

That chicken can survive well without food for months and doesn't need any care at all.

And the fourth child has changed now. He doesn’t even say hello to him when he goes out. I don’t know who he learned this from.

It is obvious that he saw that his ranking was higher than his, so he wanted to make some big moves and surpass his own pace.

How could he be defeated? He quickly cleaned up and then heard someone say that Lao Mo was back.

This scared him a lot. Although he became famous this time, robbing people's ancestral graves is not a glorious thing. Based on his understanding of Lao Mo, he would definitely whip him severely.

It’s better to go out and hide. Maybe if you run into the fourth brother, you can cooperate and use the retreat trick once.

"Let's go!" After Yan Xiaohu said that, he immediately flew away on his sword and soon disappeared into the sky.

But unexpectedly, after another hour, He Han ran out in a hurry. As soon as he saw Elder Wuzhu, he hurriedly asked if he had seen Lu Yaoyao.

"seen!"

"Where have you been?"

"how could I know."

"When did you see him?"

"Three days ago, he left alone. What happened?"

"Oops~"

He Han hurriedly ran back. The battle between the five major sects was becoming more and more intense. People in the Nascent Soul stage were constantly dying. If she, a person in the Golden Core stage, ran out, wouldn't it be obvious that she was going to die?

Soon, Cao Zhengyang sent a detailed inquiry message, and after a while, He Han left in a hurry.

This left Elder Wuzhu speechless.

"Although I've never accepted a disciple and can't quite empathize with you masters, from a third-party perspective, you've all been incredibly good at protecting them."

"People need to grow up. Perhaps it's your overprotection that makes them want to leave on their own!"

…………

In a mountain range, Zhou Qing carefully spread the feces of some high-level monsters around, then jumped and flew onto a tree.

This trick was learned from my third senior brother. By using the smell of monster feces, I can cover up my own breath to a certain extent and avoid some unnecessary trouble.

Lu Yaoyao was lying on a tree branch, looking very excited. Her eyes were almost smiling into crescent shapes under the moonlight.

Zhou Qing found a relatively stable place, sat cross-legged, and began to practice.

Looking at the layer of silver light that suddenly appeared on Zhou Qing's body, Lu Yaoyao gradually put away her smile, wrapped her arms tightly around her legs, rested her chin lightly on her knees, and looked at Zhou Qing with eyes that suddenly turned red.

There was a hint of nostalgia, dependence and fear in his eyes.

My thoughts seemed to go back to the past. It had been a long time since I had felt this kind of quiet solitude.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Qing, who was practicing, seemed to have noticed something wrong with Lu Yaoyao. The silver light on his body slowly disappeared, and then he opened his eyes and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Lu Yaoyao shook her head slightly, was silent for a while, thought for a while, and then said, "I'm just very curious, what kind of woman will you find as your Taoist partner in the future?"

Zhou Qing: "..."

Here it comes again, is it here again?

There is Fairy Xuanyou in front and the Ninth Princess Xuanyuan Muqian behind. Even though I look like your brother, I don’t have to worry to this extent.

"Brother Zhou, let's assume that you have a Taoist partner in the future and also have a beautiful and sensible daughter."

"But my daughter has never seen her mother since she was born. Every time she asks you about it, you remain silent. What do you think is causing you to be so resistant?"

Lu Yaoyao suddenly asked seriously.

Zhou Qing couldn't help but laugh. What kind of assumptions are these?

However, seeing Lu Yaoyao's serious look, he couldn't just ignore her, so he lay down along the thick branch and looked up at the bright moon and stars in the night sky.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Although I'm still young and it's really too early to discuss these things, it's still a good idea to think about it if I really have a daughter in the future."

"Really? You don't want a son? I mean, you won't despise a daughter because you prefer a son to a daughter?"

Lu Yaoyao's eyes lit up and she asked quickly, her eyes full of anticipation, as if she cared very much about Zhou Qing's answer to this question.
