The head master has a new female apprentice

Chapter 224 This, this, this... How is this possible! (6k)

The crystal stones that Xuanyuan Shuo turned out seemed to be stained with blood, and there was a faint layer of heat emanating from the surface.

There are faint traces of red light flowing between the stones.

This thing is an excellent material for refining weapons, and one piece is worth at least one top-grade spirit stone.

In other words, these things can be exchanged for at least seventy or eighty top-grade spirit stones.

Zhou Qing felt jealous.

As expected, the saying "you are what you eat" is absolutely true.

"Is this the ten thousand year old blood ginseng?" The second uncle exclaimed soon.

The two were stunned and looked over immediately.

I saw a jade box placed on the side near the jade bed.

The jade box was emerald green all over and emitted a warm luster, but at this moment, a slender arm stretched out from the gap.

The arm was as white as jade, but covered with mottled scars, as if it had been cut by a sharp blade.

The second uncle picked it up carefully and opened it gently.

There was a human-shaped object lying inside. It had a delicate little face and facial features that were almost indistinguishable from a child's.

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she was sleeping.

It has a big head and a small body, and is wearing a tattered red bellyband, revealing its scarred skin.

Some of the wounds have already scabbed over, but others are still oozing blood, which is shocking.

In addition, there is a golden chain wrapped around its neck, one end of which is connected to the jade box, and there are also strange runes flashing by.

"This is a miracle medicine!" The second uncle swallowed his saliva, his eyes full of shock.

Xuanyuan Shuo also swallowed his saliva.

The ten thousand year old blood ginseng can replenish qi and blood in an instant. These wounds are obviously caused by Peng Huang cutting off a little bit every time he is injured to restore his own vitality.

Zhou Qing also looked at it curiously, which reminded him of the Ice Glass Spirit Bird Ganoderma in the restricted area where No. 6 was. At that time, it had turned into a white bird and was sleeping soundly beside it.

but--

Zhou Qing suddenly wanted to laugh, because his third senior brother had a so-called ten thousand year old blood ginseng, and he even said at the time that even if he sold the entire Taiqing Sect, he might not be able to exchange it for such a magical medicine.

Indeed, if any sect had such a miraculous medicine, I'm afraid even those in the Soul-Slaying Realm would come in person to snatch it.

After all, having such a miraculous medicine means saving a life at a critical moment.

But it was obvious that the blood ginseng that Third Senior Brother had was definitely not ten thousand years old. He had tasted the roots and thought it should be around three or four thousand years old, but it was still priceless.

"Brother Daye, please give this ten-thousand-year-old blood ginseng to me. I don't want anything else in this cave. I'll even give you fifty top-grade spirit stones!"

Xuanyuan Shuo's eyes were red as he stared at the thousand-year-old blood ginseng in the jade box. His throat rolled and he swallowed hard and said.

The second uncle looked at the still-living thousand-year-old blood ginseng, but slowly shook his head and said, "No, we agreed to split it equally. I'll cut it into three parts, and we can each have one. Harmony brings wealth."

He even demonstrated the cutting motion while speaking.

As soon as the words fell, the blood ginseng in the box couldn't help but shudder.

How come this is even more cruel than that of Peng Huang?

Although people have to carefully cut it a little bit each time and it hurts, at least it still has a breath of life left.

You're just fine, thinking it's better to suffer a short pain than a long one, right?

Well, it has had enough anyway, so it’s better to die sooner and get out of this situation. In the next life, it never wants to become a magic medicine again.

After hearing this, Xuanyuan Shuo's face twitched.

Zhou Qing saw the second uncle give him a subtle look, and immediately understood what he meant. He stepped forward and said, "I don't want my share."

The second uncle nodded, a look of regret on his face, and he sighed, "Blood Ginseng, ah Blood Ginseng, I actually wanted to take good care of you, but now who can stop us from seeing you? Please don't blame me, I really don't want to do that."

As he spoke, he gestured with his hands and said, "Old Shuo, since Zhou Qing doesn't want it, the ratio needs to be redistributed. How about this? I'll chop off these two legs and give them to you. I hope it can still be alive by then."

The second uncle directly took out a broken blade, handed it to him, and said seriously: "To be fair, you chop it."

At this moment, the sleeping blood ginseng seemed to be trying its best to break free from the seal of the golden chain.

During the years when Peng Huang was away, it had finally managed to stick one arm out of the jade box, hoping that one day it could escape from the cage.

Unexpectedly, I couldn't escape this fate in the end.

At this moment, its eyelashes trembled violently, and finally slowly opened a gap. Its dark pupils were full of tears, and it looked at Xuanyuan Shuo pitifully.

Xuanyuan Shuo: “…”

I really want to curse. No, how did I become such an unforgivable person without knowing why?

He wanted the ten thousand year old blood ginseng, and he also wanted to take good care of it in case of emergency.

But now he has been forced to become an "executioner" by this master and disciple.

What's the point of dismembering it?

By then, your qi and blood will slowly dissipate and you will become a piece of dried radish.

You two, master and disciple, work together really well. You agreed on a 50-50 split, but after some twists and turns it became 30-70.

I can't do such a wasteful thing.

Fuck!
"Those fifty pieces of Earth Fire Crystals belong to me. In addition, I want the five-color restriction here!" Xuanyuan Shuo was angry and helpless. He flicked his sleeves and said loudly.

Seeing Xuanyuan Shuo relent, the Second Master quickly put the jade box into his storage bag, a smile on his face as he said, "No problem, brother, I'll help you find the formation flag right away."

Zhou Qing looked at this scene and laughed in his heart.

Even if this five-colored restriction does not belong to Xuanyuan Shuo, no one can move it.

If this is taken, wouldn't everything be exposed? In the final analysis, it will still be kept here to bluff and restrain various forces.

"Found it!" Soon, the second uncle found a formation plate with colorful light flowing in a secret compartment on the ground.

It is inlaid with many top-grade spirit stones all around to keep it running.

The Second Master looked at Xuanyuan Shuo and said, "Do you want to take it out or should I help you?"

Sure enough, Xuanyuan Shuo also reacted at this moment and started cursing.

He was so angry at the master and disciple that he lost his mind.

But now that things have come to this, there is nothing to do but swallow my anger and continue searching in the cave.

click-

No one knew who touched what, but the stone wall suddenly trembled, and then a hidden secret room slowly appeared.

The three of them looked at each other, a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes, and they immediately went in together.

When I walked into the secret room, I saw many jade slips placed inside. In addition, there was a coffin with the body of an old man lying quietly inside.

"These are... jade slips related to formation restrictions!" Xuanyuan Shuo glanced at the old man indifferently, picked up the jade slip beside him and flipped through it.

The second uncle also nodded and placed his hand gently on the coffin.

"This person should have reached the peak of the Spiritual Transformation Realm in his lifetime. It seems that he has been dead for over a hundred years. I just don't know why he was frozen here by Feng Xuanling. Is there something special about him?"

The second uncle asked with some doubt.

"This is a note. This person is actually a fourth-level formation master!" When Xuanyuan Shuo picked up another jade slip and flipped through it, he was immediately surprised.

The second uncle and Zhou Qing were stunned and hurried over to check.

As expected, this jade slip recorded the other party's understanding and notes on some four-color restrictions.

Xuanyuan Shuo's eyes lit up, and he said, "I understand. This master must have traveled here by chance, but was accidentally captured by Feng Xuanling and brutally murdered."

"This person must have obtained a five-colored restriction by chance, which is why this flat-haired beast quietly placed it here."

"I was saying it. I've been dealing with him for so many years, but I've never found this guy to have a five-color restriction. So this is it!"

The second uncle agreed with Xuanyuan Shuo's analysis, and then looked at the old man in the coffin with regret.

A four-color formation master, if he could step into the Soul-Severing Realm, his status can be imagined, but he had the misfortune to meet Feng Xuanling.

Time is also fate!
"I think that flat-haired beast also wants to take this opportunity to comprehend the formation. These jade slips are useless to you, so leave them to Zhou Qing and bring them to you, sir, to have a look!" said the second uncle.

Xuanyuan Shuo immediately retorted, "Who said it's useless? This is the experience of a fourth-level formation master. It's not too much for me to copy it. Who knows, there may be a younger generation in my Xuanyuan family who has a talent for formations."

As he spoke, Xuanyuan Shuo took out some blank jade slips and started to make rubbings of them.

At this time, Zhou Qing was staring at the old man in the coffin with burning eyes.

You should know that anyone who has comprehended between 10,000 and 50,000 spiritual seals can be called a fourth-level formation master.

Although Number Six was a powerful cultivator at the Soul Severing Realm, his spiritual seal was only a little over ten thousand.

This person was able to obtain the five-color array disk, which shows that he had extraordinary luck.

Maybe, you can try it.

Zhou Qing immediately looked at the [Corpse Touching Post] in the Qitielu. According to the introduction, it was to trigger the deceased's last wish by touching the corpse.

By completing the last wish, you can randomly obtain precious items from the deceased, limited to three people.

After confirming the information again, Zhou Qing slowly opened the coffin lid, and the two of them immediately looked over.

Zhou Qingze sighed, then took out three incense sticks, lit them, and bowed three times respectfully.

His movements were pious and solemn, and his eyes were full of respect.

Xuanyuan Shuo shook his head slightly. This child is a man of loyalty and friendship.

Yes, you are all formation masters, and you have a deeper understanding and respect for the heritage and spirit of your ancestors.

The second uncle also stepped forward and bowed solemnly to the coffin.

Since he had joined the lineage of formation masters, any senior he met could be called "sir". Moreover, those jade slips were of extraordinary significance to his subsequent comprehension.

"Let's take him out and find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to bury him!" said the second uncle with emotion.

Xuanyuan Shuo raised a jade slip he had just copied and said, "Situ Jiuyao!"

So that's his name.

After the memorial service, Zhou Qing showed respect on his face and murmured softly: "Master Situ, rest in peace!" After that, he gently placed one hand on him and activated the [Corpse Touching Post].

The next moment, the post suddenly emitted light, and one-third of the area immediately became dim.

Following this, a series of glowing words emerged.

【Trigger the deceased's last wish.】

[Last wish 1: I hope someone will help me avenge my grievances and kill that Peng Huang.]

[Last wish two: I hope someone can take me back to the Tianyun Holy Dynasty, where I can return to the ancient Fengxi sect.]

[Last Wish Three: I hope someone can help me retrieve the Five-Colored Formation Disk. I spent over three hundred years getting it piece by piece from the ruins.]

Seeing these three wishes, Zhou Qing felt so wonderful.

So this is the [Corpse Touching Post].

I just don't know what the time of death of the corpse is defined as in this [Corpse Touching Post].

After all, according to the second uncle's previous inference, the Master Situ in front of him might have been dead for more than a hundred years.

Needless to say, the first wish had already been killed by him. Could this be considered fulfilled ahead of time?

As for the second last wish, I didn’t expect that he was actually from the fifth-level cultivation country, Tianyun Holy Dynasty.

Previously, Zhou Qing had accidentally heard of this distant cultivation country when chatting with his second uncle, and even speculated that Number Six might be from the Tianyun Holy Dynasty.

I didn't expect to meet someone from this capital so soon.

It was obvious that the distance between the Shengwu Dynasty and the Tianyun Dynasty was too far. Unless he had reached the Soul-Slaying Realm, there was no way he could cross it.

The third wish seemed simple, but Xuanyuan Shuo probably wouldn't let him touch the formation.

On the one hand, you can't explain the reason clearly. On the other hand, if the formation fails and someone finds out that they have entered the cave, how should they carry out their next plan?

After much thought, only the first wish is the most likely to be achieved at the moment and will not cause too much trouble.

After a brief hesitation, Zhou Qing, with a hint of awe, gently placed the Great Demon Order on Master Situ's body, and then said, "Senior Situ, that Peng Huang has died at my hands. My great hatred has been avenged. You can rest in peace now."

As soon as the words fell, a strange scene happened.

In the field of vision that only he could see, a series of images flashed by quickly, as if passing by a cursory glance.

Zhou Qing was excited. He didn't expect that it could actually be achieved.

So, is it considered as randomly screening the precious things that the deceased had during his lifetime?
This made him look forward to it.

Soon, the picture gradually stopped, and before he could see the specific situation clearly, he suddenly felt dizzy.

Immediately afterwards, he felt a strong pulling sensation, and when he regained his vision, he found that "himself" was in a hall.

Opposite her, there was a woman with silver hair and a veil sitting with her eyes closed. Around her, more than 8,000 spiritual seals were flashing with strange light, rising and falling.

"Number six?" Zhou Qing was stunned.

But soon, as the voice came out, Zhou Qing subconsciously covered his mouth.

Because he suddenly realized that the voice was not his own, but sounded quite old.

He hurriedly looked down at his hands. The wrinkled skin and rough texture made him even more certain that this was not his original body.

Especially number six, she should have condensed 10,000 spirit seals and been promoted to a fourth-level formation master, instead of having only 8,000 spirit seals as shown in front of her.

"So, this is Master Situ's body, and I am now in a certain time period in the past!"

In an instant, Zhou Qing suddenly realized, and a glimmer of enlightenment flashed in his eyes.

It seems that Number Six is ​​indeed from the Tianyun Holy Dynasty, a fifth-level cultivation country, and is acquainted with Situ Jiuyao.

The scene before me looks like people of the same trade coming to visit and exchange ideas.

Soon, he saw a middle-aged man sitting on the left.

There were actually more than nine thousand spirit seals surrounding his body. At this moment, as his hands formed seals, these spirit seals slowly merged into the young man's body, making his aura even deeper.

Then, the middle-aged man bowed to Situ Jiuyao, who was possessed by Zhou Qing, with a face full of gratitude, his movements pious and solemn.

Then, he slowly turned his head and looked at the silver-haired woman, his eyes instantly filled with admiration.

"Thank you, I'm touched by your words!" Zhou Qing couldn't help but speak, with uncontrollable excitement in his voice.

The next moment, a strong sense of enlightenment suddenly came over me.

Countless complex runes and lines appeared clearly in front of his eyes. After a brief moment of daze, Zhou Qing immediately reacted.

It turned out that the precious item randomly drawn from the [Corpse Touching Post] was exactly the epiphany he gained after communicating with No. 6 and the stranger.

The fact that this enlightenment was so deeply engraved in the other party's mind shows that it was of great significance.

Without saying a word, he immediately used his mind to open the inheritance left to him by Senior Xuan Qingzi and began to comprehend it.

Because he felt that his thinking had become extremely agile, and every thought he had could trigger a series of new inspirations about formations.

It is even more useful than the four-colored flowers and the [Enlightenment Post] that I used when I broke through to the God Transformation stage.

At the same time, inside the secret room.

One hundred and sixty-eight spiritual seals suddenly appeared all over Zhou Qing's body, slowly rotating around him.

The two were stunned and looked at each other in confusion.

The second uncle, in particular, frowned when he saw Zhou Qing closing his eyes. Just as he was about to step forward to talk to him with some worry, Zhou Qing suddenly moved.

I saw his hands dancing quickly, like flowing water, but with an indescribable rhythm.

In the palm of his hand, spiritual power surged and roared, making a faint roaring sound.

Such a scene seemed familiar to the second uncle. He soon seemed to think of something, his face changed slightly, and he took a step back without hesitation, his expression full of vigilance.

"What's wrong?" Xuanyuan Shuo noticed that the second uncle looked like he was facing a great enemy, and he was shocked. He also became nervous and alert.

Could it be that this Situ Situ Jiuyao is not dead, and he only picks on the weak, and is now taking over Zhou Qing's body?
The second uncle did not answer Xuanyuan Shuo's question immediately, but stared at Zhou Qing, and his mind couldn't help but recall the scene when Zhou Qing broke through the Spirit Transformation Realm.

"It won't happen again, will it?"

But just as he finished speaking, a vortex of spiritual power suddenly appeared in front of Zhou Qing's chest.

Immediately afterwards, the 187th spiritual seal was formed in it instantly.

Seeing this scene, the second uncle covered his forehead with his hands, his face full of helplessness and envy.

Xuanyuan Shuo was stunned for a moment, then he breathed a sigh of relief, a relieved smile on his face.

"It seems that after paying tribute to Master Situ, this kid seemed to have received some kind of blessing, allowing him to comprehend a spiritual seal. Aren't you envious? If you had offered incense to him earlier..."

He stopped talking before he could finish his words. He just stared blankly at the scene in front of him, his eyes full of shock and disbelief.

Thirteen prototypes of spiritual seals appeared around Zhou Qing almost simultaneously, constantly compressing and condensing.

In less than a few breaths, the thirteen spiritual seals took shape.

For a moment, the light became brighter, and a total of two hundred spiritual seals appeared dazzlingly in front of the two of them.

It also means that at this moment, Zhou Qing has completely become the ninth second-level formation master of the Shengwu Dynasty.

Xuanyuan Shuo reacted and quickly rubbed his eyes to make sure he was not dazzled.

"Is this how the spiritual seals of you formation masters are formed? Shouldn't they be accumulated over time?" Xuanyuan Shuo asked quietly in a low voice.

The second uncle smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "Anyway, I am like this. He is different from normal people."

Although he said this, the second uncle's eyes were full of excitement, as if he was looking at a rare treasure.

Although they didn't know what exactly happened, Zhou Qing's promotion to a second-level formation master meant that they could now work together to enter the first coffin.

"This, this, this..."

But in the next moment, Xuanyuan Shuo's eyes suddenly widened, his face full of shock, and even his voice became sharp, and he pointed at Zhou Qing with trembling fingers.

The second uncle was also dumbfounded, his face frozen in shock, his eyes full of disbelief.

In the next second, Zhou Qing suddenly had a hundred spirit seal prototypes appearing around him like blooming flowers.

These prototypes of spiritual seals flickered with light, and under the embrace of Zhou Qing's spiritual power, they were condensed in just a few breaths.

Before the two could come to their senses, another hundred spirit seal prototypes appeared, condensed, and appeared again...

In a short period of time, the number of spirit seals around Zhou Qing continued to increase like a snowball, and the scene was shocking.

The two powerful Soul-Severing Realm warriors, who were almost god-like in the eyes of others, now felt their minds go blank and stared at the scene in front of them like fools.

No one knew how long it had been, but when Zhou Qing's body was filled with a full thousand spirit seals, he slowly opened his eyes with a look of unsatisfied satisfaction.

Looking at the thousands of spiritual seals surrounding his body, Zhou Qing sighed in his heart.

No wonder this has become Master Situ’s most precious thing. Condensing eight hundred spirit seals at one time, anyone would regard it as an unforgettable experience and opportunity, and even brag about it for the rest of their lives.

You know, for a formation master with profound attainments like Master Situ, it becomes increasingly difficult to condense each spiritual seal as time goes by.

Soon, he keenly sensed two scorching gazes fixed on him.

When he turned around, he saw the Second Master and Xuanyuan Shuo standing not far away, with their mouths open, as if they were under a spell, looking at him with shock and astonishment in their eyes.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing scratched his head embarrassedly.

Xuanyuan Shuo regained consciousness, his throat rolling with difficulty as he stammered, "After living this long, I finally got to see what a true evildoer is. I should have guessed it the moment I saw you repairing the four-color magic circle."

The second uncle was filled with surprise. He stepped forward excitedly and asked anxiously, "What happened? How did you become like that all of a sudden?"

Zhou Qing scratched his head and lied, "I don't know either. I just suddenly entered a state of enlightenment."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xuanyuan Shuo's eyes lit up, and he took a step forward, pushing the second uncle and Zhou Qing aside.

He reached out and picked up the Tai Yao Order placed on Situ Jiuyao, and imitated Zhou Qing's previous actions, solemnly lit three incense sticks and waved them in the air.

Then, he looked at the corpse with a reverent expression and said seriously, "I was the first to injure Peng Huang, and then Zhou Qing and the others dealt him a fatal blow. Now that my vengeance has been avenged, Master, you may rest assured and continue your journey."

After saying this, he bowed and carefully placed the Tai Yao Order back on Situ Jiuyao's body.

He stared without blinking, then closed his eyes in anticipation.

Looking at Xuanyuan Shuo's actions, Zhou Qing's face twitched and he secretly laughed in his heart.

After all, you are a senior in the Soul-Slaying Realm, so you should have some intelligence.
