The head master has a new female apprentice

Chapter 93: The Mysterious Item of the Fifth Level Cultivation Country (6k)

Facing the follower Yan Xiaohu, Mo Xingjian was speechless.

"Are you sick? I told you, it's not me, it's not me. If I recognize you, what's the use of you two?" Mo Xingjian couldn't help shouting.

Seeing Mo Xingjian's perfunctory attitude, Yan Xiaohu still followed closely behind him pitifully.

"Master, Master, Lao Si just opened his mouth today and directly received thirty mid-grade spirit stones. We are both disciples, but the difference is too big. Before confiscating Lao Si, I was also your youngest disciple."

Mo Xingjian sighed, "I swear, isn't that enough? If you don't believe me, call the fourth brother over and we can confront him face to face."

"Look, you're already feeling guilty and angry. How about this, we both take a step back. I'll step back and let Old Four make all the money. Then you give me half of the spirit stones. Is that okay?"

Yan Xiaohu stretched out his hand.

Mo Xingjian: “…”

"No way, you can't even bear to give up fifteen mid-grade spirit stones? Are you still my master?"

Seeing Mo Xingjian in a daze, Yan Xiaohu's eyes suddenly turned red.

Mo Xingjian looked at him speechlessly: "Fifteen dollars? A mid-grade one? Why? I don't owe you anything. I was holding the portrait of the Fourth Prince and went to ask other core disciples for donations. These days, with the Seventh Prince's competition, your gambling tables are everywhere. How could you be short of money?"

Yan Xiaohu's tears that were about to flow were immediately stopped.

"Master, these are two different things. I earned that through my own ability and my own face. What we are talking about now is your bias..."

"Get out of here!"

Before Yan Xiaohu could finish his words, Mo Xingjian kicked the annoying thing away, then closed the temple door and activated the barrier.

Listening to Yan Xiaohu cursing outside, Mo Xingjian was angry, but suddenly he smiled with relief.

"I didn't expect that this guy Lao Si was so lucky. I haven't even seen those things, but he unexpectedly saw the relevant records. He deserves to make this money!"

Then, the "disciple with good comprehension" above him became the "disciple with some luck".

Soon after, the news that Zhou Qing from Xiaoling Peak recognized a mysterious item brought by the Seventh Prince and that the other party gave him thirty medium-grade spirit stones as a thank you spread quickly.

Everyone was so envious and jealous.

They don't believe that a peeping Tom would know about such things. So many peak masters and elders have seen more than you have walked.

They haven't heard of it, how can you recognize it?

What a joke! It must be Uncle Mo who asked him to be in the limelight. After all, Zhou Qing has a bad reputation.

Although they had recognized Shi Zhen in the dark and saved many core disciples, which led to their own revenge, they certainly remembered this favor, but their intuitive feeling about Zhou Qing was that he liked to peek at girls taking a bath and was led astray by Yan Xiaohu.

Now that he has saved the day for Taiqing Sect and gained face, his image has immediately changed.

Alas, how pitiful are the hearts of all the masters in the world.

Uncle Mo really has good intentions.

After hearing this, Shi Zhen felt happy for Zhou Qing.

[Heart Judgment Points +8]

The note above her head also changed from [Junior Brother Zhou who is as smart as him] to [Junior Brother Zhou who is knowledgeable].

Then she looked melancholy again.

Senior Brother Guimao is forging ahead in pursuing his own path and is almost reaching the state of spiritual transformation like his master and the others.

But he was still at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core Realm and had not even entered the Nascent Soul stage.

If I continue like this, I'm afraid I will end up being just a fleeting scene in his life.

It's time for a good retreat.

However, it is not so easy to break through the Nascent Soul stage.

…………

In the courtyard, Zhou Qing held a tetanus gun and continued to practice the second move of the "Cang Lei Sword Technique".

This move is several times more complicated than the first one. Fortunately, his talent is no longer what it used to be, and he can comprehend it quickly.

The night passed quietly, and the progress was even faster.

Before I could even take a break, Yan Xiaohu's voice rang out outside, like a rooster crowing, on time.

"Old Four, Old Four, are you up?"

Zhou Qing wiped the sweat from his forehead and opened the door silently.

Only then did he realize that in addition to the third senior brother, there was also the seventh prince Xuanyuan Yichen and Lu Yaoyao.

"Good morning, Senior Brother Zhou!"

Lu Yaoyao and the Ninth Princess greeted each other with a smile.

Zhou Qing nodded subconsciously, still not quite sure what was going on.

Instead, Yan Xiaohu had a look of resentment on his face.

"I just came down the mountain and met them. Brother Yi Chen wanted to see what you thought last night," said Yan Xiaohu.

Zhou Qing immediately understood.

I didn't expect the seventh prince to be so anxious.

"Please come in first!" Zhou Qing invited hurriedly.

Yan Xiaohu also followed in. He wanted to see what kind of name the fourth brother would make up today.

"It's really rude of you to come here so hastily, but these three things are very important to me. I wonder if Brother Zhou..."

Xuanyuan Yichen said a little embarrassedly.

Zhou Qing said he understood.

"I thought hard last night and did remember a little bit. Can you show it to me again?" Zhou Qing said.

When Xuanyuan Yichen heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

He quickly and carefully took out the small black door and the long black needle.

While Zhou Qing was deep in thought, Lu Yaoyao and the Ninth Princess went to tease the old hen.

Then he turned his gaze towards the black portal and conducted his daily inspection.

Soon, a message was fed back on it.

[Four Ghosts Bowing: Originating from a Level 5 Cultivation Nation, this artifact possesses powerful sealing abilities. If the four ghosts are activated, they can easily rip away souls from the Soul Severing Realm, dragging them inside and searching their souls. Even if a soul's consciousness is restricted, these restrictions can be gradually lifted, allowing the desired information to be obtained.]

Seeing this scene, Zhou Qing couldn't help but feel a little frightened.

He didn't expect that this thing actually came from a level five cultivation country.

Now it seems that both the life-saving paper from yesterday and the two things in front of me should have come from the same place.

The royal water is indeed deep enough.

I just don't know where he got it from?

But this has nothing to do with him, he just makes money.

Just as Zhou Qing was about to slap his forehead and pretend to think, the seventh prince took the lead and brought out a plate.

It was piled with sparkling mid-grade spirit stones, more than forty in total.

Yan Xiaohu, who was watching from the side, was drooling.

"No matter which one Brother Zhou thinks of, I hope Junior Brother Zhou won't despise this kind gesture!" Xuanyuan Yichen said.

Zhou Qing's eyes lit up and he felt excited.

What he lacks most now is money, especially a noble person like you.

Zhou Qing coughed dryly and said with a smile, "Brother Yichen, you are too polite. Let me think about it."

After a long while, Zhou Qing clapped his hands and said, "I remember now. This thing seems to be called Four Ghosts Bowing to the Door."

"Four ghosts bowing to the door? Are you sure?" Zhou Qing just said a name and Xuanyuan Yichen immediately became excited.

Zhou Qing nodded and looked at him thoughtfully.

It looks like he knows something.

Yan Xiaohu muttered quietly, "What's the Four Ghosts Bowing to the Gate? Shouldn't it be the Black Spirit Gate?"

Zhou Qing said, "It's the Four Ghosts Bowing to the Gate. The booklet at the time seemed to record that this thing has a powerful sealing ability, especially the four ghost images above, which are the most important. However, it is not easy to activate it, and the specific method is unknown."

Zhou Qing didn't dare to say that this thing could seal the Soul-Slaying Realm. Some things were better to be clear to oneself.

In the entire Shengwu Dynasty, there are only a dozen or so people who have reached the Soul-Slaying Realm. If they knew that something could threaten them, you can imagine what kind of bloody storm would be set off.

Besides, since the Seventh Prince can distinguish the real from the fake, he should know the function of this thing.

"Thank you!"

After Zhou Qing finished speaking, Xuanyuan Yichen expressed his gratitude and generously gave him forty medium-grade spirit stones.

"Then this—" He pointed at the last long black needle again, as if he wanted to verify something.

Zhou Qing frowned and said, "My memory is still a little fuzzy right now. Maybe I'll remember it tomorrow."

Xuanyuan Yichen said: "Okay, then I will come to see you tomorrow. Thank you very much for this."

"You're welcome!" Zhou Qing said with a smile.

Soon, Lu Yaoyao and the Ninth Princess came over. Lu Yaoyao was full of admiration and pride, saying, "Well, isn't Senior Brother Zhou amazing? Nothing in this world can stump him."

The Ninth Princess also nodded repeatedly: "I didn't expect that Brother Zhou is so knowledgeable and can help my brother solve the problem in one go."

Zhou Qing felt a little embarrassed when he heard this.

"It's all coincidence. In the past few years, I thought the things on the street stalls were just entertainment items when one was bored. I didn't expect that they were all real. I should have taken note of them earlier." Zhou Qing said with a smile.

Xuanyuan Yichen looked a little anxious, then said, "Okay, we won't disturb Brother Zhou's rest. We'll come back tomorrow."

Seeing this, Lu Yaoyao hurriedly said, "Why don't you guys get busy? Sister Mu Qian and I will play here for a while."

Xuanyuan Yichen glanced at the silly chicken pecking at their shoes and said, "I see that Brother Zhou looks tired. Why don't we not bother him? We have to come again tomorrow."

"Well, Brother Zhou, we'll leave first. See you tomorrow!" The Ninth Princess saluted.

Lu Yaoyao hesitated to speak.

Zhou Qing followed suit and said, "Alright, I practiced all night last night, so it's a good time to catch up on some sleep. I won't see you off then."

After a few people bowed, they left.

Yan Xiaohu was looking at the plate of sparkling mid-grade spirit stones on the table, his saliva almost flowing.

"Fourth brother..."

"Third senior brother, please send them off for me!" Zhou Qing waved his hand, and a medium-grade spirit stone immediately came and fell into Yan Xiaohu's hand.

Yan Xiaohu smiled instantly.

"Don't worry, leave it to me, your senior brother!" Yan Xiaohu said, and quickly chased after him.

Zhou Qingze smiled and shook his head, looking at the spirit stones on the table with excitement.

Including this time, he already has seventy-nine medium-grade spirit stones, which is enough for him to enter the [Shenxu Heavenly Palace] twice.

And he had to try to pass through the gravity zone as soon as possible, at least to increase his success rate. Otherwise, what would he do if the Supreme Elder came to him again next time?
If he doesn't refuse, once he enters there, so many wandering souls in the Jindan realm will definitely eat him.

But if he refused, the Supreme Elder would feel a little embarrassed. What if he didn't look for him next time?
He had a feeling that the scroll in the green mist was very important to him. After a brief rest, he familiarized himself with the second form again.

Soon, with the arrival of the third day, Xuanyuan Yichen and others came again with anticipation.

Zhou Qing immediately conducted an appraisal.

[Ghost Sewing Needle: Originated from a certain fifth-level cultivation nation, it can heal soul wounds, especially those where the soul has been shattered into pieces. It is most effective, but the thread used to sew it comes at the cost of the sewer's lifespan.]

Seeing this introduction, Zhou Qing couldn't help but frown.

Yellow official paper, four ghosts bowing to the door, and ghost sewing needle, although these three things come from the more mysterious and powerful fifth-level cultivation country, they look evil no matter how you look at them.

One buys life, one strips off the soul, and one sews the spirit. Which fifth-level cultivation country does this thing come from?
Then, Zhou Qing looked at the forty mid-grade spirit stones that had been placed on the table and said, "This is a ghost sewing needle, which can heal wounds in the soul..."

This time, he saw a flash of surprise in the eyes of the seventh prince, as if he had expected it.

"He is asking me for confirmation!" Zhou Qing thought thoughtfully.

After listening, Xuanyuan Yichen bowed to Zhou Qing and said, "Thank you very much. Please accept these rewards."

"I'm really embarrassed," Zhou Qing pretended to refuse and put it away.

Xuanyuan Yichen smiled and said, "These three things are all thanks to Brother Zhou's memory. Aren't you curious about where I got them?"

Zhou Qing immediately shook his head and said, "I'm just doing the work for money. I won't ask about things that have nothing to do with me, and I don't want to know."

After hearing this, Xuanyuan Yichen showed admiration and said, "Brother Zhou is indeed worthy of being Brother Guimao's junior apprentice. You are able to judge the situation and protect yourself wisely. You will definitely achieve great things in the future."

Zhou Qing smiled slightly: "Thank you for the compliment, Brother Yichen."

Xuanyuan Yichen said, "We will be going back in two days. This trip to Taiqing Sect has been quite fruitful. More importantly, I have made a good friend like Brother Zhou. By the way, this is for you."

After Xuanyuan Yichen finished speaking, he handed over a blue token with the word "Yi" on it.

"Brother Zhou, if you have time to visit the imperial capital, I will be waiting for you at Yiyun Mansion!" Xuanyuan Yichen said.

I heard that in the imperial capital, every prince has his own mansion. The name of the mansion opened by the seventh prince is related to him.

"Of course, of course. I'll come and bother you when the time comes," Zhou Qing accepted it with a smile.

Yan Xiaohu, who was standing by, was filled with envy.

Being personally invited by a prince, he is treated as a VIP.

I am also very knowledgeable, okay!
But if the fourth brother really goes, how can he be missing, hehe~~
Lu Yaoyao sighed softly, because the Ninth Princess invited her to visit the imperial capital, and she agreed.

I originally wanted to go with them this time and tried every means to bring Zhou Qing with me, but Master refused on the spot after hearing about it.

They said that they would definitely encounter danger on their way back this time, and the people of Taiqing Sect should not be involved. If they wanted to go, they should wait until things were stable.

"Let me see you off!" Yan Xiaohu said immediately.

"No, no, I'll take it."

"It's okay, I'll take you there."

"You should get some rest. I'll take care of the errands!"

Yan Xiaohu skillfully picked up a spirit stone from the table and happily sent the few people down the mountain.

Zhou Qing smiled and shook his head, then looked at the token in his hand.

To be on the safe side, we have to check it tomorrow.

That night, Yan Xiaohu sent a message to Zhou Qing, saying that the Seventh Prince and others had left.

"The people in the imperial capital are all very cunning. You must never believe what they say. You are too naive. No matter where you go in the future, I have to keep an eye on you!" said Yan Xiaohu.

Zhou Qing had no choice but to agree.

Then looking at the night sky, this was a deliberate smoke bomb for everyone, very cautious.

It was after midnight when Zhou Qing immediately identified the token. Only after confirming that there was nothing wrong did he feel relieved.

For the next three days, Zhou Qing did not go out and devoted himself to comprehending the second form.

Even when Yan Xiaohu sent a message saying that Fairy Xuanyou, the leader of Qingyu Immortal Sect, would be coming in a few days, he didn't have time to respond.

Only after he completely comprehended the second move did he happily reactivate the [Shenxu Tiangong] token and enter it.

"Hey, Number One, you're here today!"

As Zhou Qing came in, a greeting voice sounded beside him.

Zhou Qing turned around and saw that the number five green ball was there.

"Come on!" Zhou Qing simply replied with two words, then resolutely stepped into his own picture.

Green Ball No. 5 tutted his words, "Not only is she aloof, but she's also quite cautious. Could she be a beautiful lady? After all, Blue Ball No. 6 is. Interesting, really interesting!"

Number Five muttered to himself, then sighed, "This is the last time. If I still can't pass, I'll have to go into seclusion."

After saying this, he immersed himself in his own picture.

At this time, Zhou Qing came to the gravity zone again, but this time he waited for a long time but did not see the wandering soul come out.

His luck was pretty bad. He was still thinking about getting his soul out so that he could try out the second move of the "Cang Lei Sword Technique".

After Zhou Qing passed through the gravity zone with sweat all over his head, moved the millstone, entered the corridor, and came to the final scene again.

With the induction of the Yin and Yang Pills in the body, the first coffin was moved away again, and a ball of green mist came out of it and then condensed into a scroll.

Zhou Qing just took a quick look, then turned around, took out a moonstone and threw it into the darkness.

As the light shone, three huge crows covered in corpse wax came into view.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Qing's face suddenly changed.

"No way? There are three of them!"

Under Zhou Qing's incredulous gaze, the corpse wax on the crow on the left began to melt little by little, and then suddenly opened its red eyes.

Then he raised his foot and walked out without making any sound.

"What the hell is this?" Zhou Qing chuckled.

Then, a feather was seen shooting out from the dead crow and piercing his head again.

He turned into a red ball again and became completely disheartened.

Just one feather from this dead crow could take his life. Perhaps because his cultivation was too low, the two of them didn't even look at him.

"Cowherd and Weaver Girl, this is me!"

The scroll in the green mist was clearly just across the river, but I just couldn't touch it.

"No, we can't give up so easily. I have three breaths from the moment that dead crow opens its eyes to the moment it walks out of the darkness. Maybe I can force my way through!"

Zhou Qing gritted his teeth and entered again.

Unexpectedly, the roars of those wandering souls were soon heard in the gravity zone this time.

Zhou Qing's eyes lit up and he was ready to go.

As the wandering soul appeared, silver light flashed under its feet and it took the lead in launching an attack.

"The second move of the Cang Lei Sword Technique, Thunder Shadow Strike, Kill!"

Silver lightning, accompanied by sharp sword energy, instantly filled the entire passage...

"Just a little bit!"

When Zhou Qing turned into a red ball again, he started cursing.

The second move of the "Cang Lei Sword Technique" is indeed powerful. Even under the terrifying gravity, the first wave of wandering souls turned into ashes in an instant after just one encounter.

But at the same time, the consumption of spiritual power was also extremely huge. He then used the first move and the "Silver Dragon Step" in succession. Although he still fell in the third wave, he could already see the millstone not far away.

"Come again!" Zhou Qing's eyes became stubborn, and he entered again...

In the room, Zhou Qing, who had regained consciousness, washed his face, then closed his eyes and carefully reviewed the various fighting skills he had just used, as well as where he had wasted time. Then he took out thirty medium-grade spirit stones and threw them into the token.

He just didn't believe that this passage was impassable.

If it really doesn't work, I'll just use those wandering souls to practice the second move.

"Only ten meters left!"

"Five meters!"

"Bad luck, Yimi!"

Looking at the sky, it was already late at night. Zhou Qing's eyes turned red, as if he was a gambler, and he threw in another thirty medium-grade spirit stones.

With the experience of fighting against enemies several times before, he was able to easily defeat the same number of wandering souls this time.

Finally, when the fourth wave appeared, we arrived at the stone mill smoothly.

"That's it?" Zhou Qing stepped on the millstone, put his hands on his hips, and couldn't help laughing anymore.

Then I felt dizzy, my heart beat faster, and then I had a violent coughing fit and almost passed out.

Having just passed the gravity zone, he laughed too quickly, causing the blood in his body to surge and rush straight to his head.

After finally taking a short rest, Zhou Qing hurried in.

Because spiritual power and soul consciousness are restricted in this place, this time, without waiting for the sarcophagus to open, Zhou Qing took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, gathered all his strength, and jumped forward directly into the blood river.

But soon, an indescribable fishy smell hit Zhou Qing's nose, causing him to retch while struggling inside.

But at this moment he didn't care about anything else. He quickly pushed away the dead crows around him and swam hard to the other side.

But after swimming for just a few strokes, I suddenly felt a chill on my back.

Zhou Qing sighed, turned around and looked at the huge dead crow on the shore that was staring at him.

"What the hell-"

Before he could finish his words, he saw a black light suddenly appear. When he opened his eyes again, it had already appeared outside and turned into a red ball.

"It's so annoying!" Zhou Qing cursed and even felt exhausted.

This is not a stage for him to enter the Golden Core Realm for the first time. The Supreme Elder and others who come in have to leave with injuries.

"It seems this method won't work either. There simply isn't enough time. Perhaps I can do the opposite, like, 'The light is dark under the lamp?'"

Zhou Qing's eyes lit up.

Afterwards, he went in again, and roars were heard again in the entire gravity zone. Zhou Qing held the tetanus and began to push horizontally with ease.

This time he still managed to reach the stone mill before the fourth wave. Now the gravity zone was no longer a problem for him.

Just as he was about to turn the millstone, a rustling sound suddenly came from the silent stone hall.

Zhou Qing immediately bent down and was on guard, but he quickly realized that he was in a simulation state and there was nothing to be afraid of.

Then he walked forward cautiously and soon arrived at the place where the sound came from, and was stunned.

What appeared in front of him at this moment was a stone wall made of cold jade. To be precise, starting from the gravity zone, there were basically such walls all around.

On one side of the wall, there was a repaired hole about half a meter long, and the sound was coming from here.

"Is it possible——"

Just as Zhou Qing was thinking of this, the tunnel was kicked open by someone. Then, an old man with "A Little Kid with the Style of My Old Man in the Past" on his head rolled out from inside.

"Second Uncle!" Zhou Qing stepped back in shock, his eyes full of disbelief.
