The next morning, Shi Jiu was reading Chang Lin's experience in the courtyard.
"It's really a good book. It's very worthwhile for those who are just starting to learn formations. If I have the chance, I really want to get to know this formation master."
Shi Jiu spoke highly of this book. The book records the various difficulties that Master Chang Lin encountered when he was studying formations when he was young, and the solutions to them. There are also summaries, as well as his own insights. and additional modifications to some formations.
Such a highly valuable formation book is impossible for ordinary forces to obtain. Only super powerful forces like Feng Baozhai, who are famous in the entire Youlong Continent, can collect it. Shi Jiu can be said to have left the world. transport.
At this moment, he was very grateful to Jin Yuner. Without her, Shi Jiu would not have been able to get her.
Just when Shi Jiu was filled with emotions, Jin Yuner, dressed in a beautiful snow-white gauze, walked into the small courtyard where Shi Jiu was.
"Hey, I'm reading a book. You're quite serious." Jin Yuner said with a hint of playfulness.
Shi Jiu raised his head and smiled back: "I have nothing to do, so I can read a book. What kind of wind brought Miss Yan'er here today?"
Jin Yaner walked carefully to Shi Jiu's table and sat down.
"Can't I come to you if I have nothing to do?"
"Of course. If I had known you were coming, I would have gone to the entrance of the courtyard to greet you personally."
"When did you learn to speak glibly? Do you want to please me?" Jin Yuner blinked.
"This is not glib, but polite. Well, you are not really bored to come to me, right?" Shi Jiu was still a little confused about Jin Yuner's arrival. Every time he came here before, there was something important, and this time is probably no exception.
"Well, it's nothing serious. I just want to ask you what your plans are in the future and where you plan to go. The matter of Lingxuan Essence has gradually subsided. I guess you will leave in a few days, right?" Jin Yuner asked.
"To be honest, I haven't made a plan yet. I plan to take it one step at a time." Shi Jiu answered truthfully.
"That's it. How about you come back to Lanming City with me? I'll be leaving in a few days."
"Lan Ming City? Let's forget it. Fire Fist Sect and Shuitian Pavilion should be looking for me there now. If I go back, won't I throw myself into a trap?" Shi Jiu shook his head and rejected the other party's proposal.
"Well, I guessed that you didn't want to go back with me, so I won't force you to do anything." Jin Yuner shook her head in disappointment.
However, Shi Jiu could tell that Jin Yuner was deliberately pretending to be disappointed, but he didn't point it out.
"Although you don't want to go back to Lanming City with me, you can go with me for a while." The next second, Jin Yuner immediately changed her expression, and then suggested again.
"Oh? Why?" Shi Jiu was a little curious.
In his impression, Jin Yuner would not act without aim. Since she said so, there must be a reason.
Sure enough, Jin Yuner explained the next moment: "Actually, I, Feng Baozhai, agreed to the request of the Shuntian Escort Bureau to protect their helmsman somewhere."
"Dharma protector? To the chief rudder of Shuntian Escort Agency?" Shi Jiu was confused and confused.
"Well, because the chief helmsman of the Shuntian Escort Bureau wants to overcome the heavenly tribulation, he hopes that I, Uncle Ming, will protect him." Jin Yuner further explained.
This time Shi Jiu understood.
"The chief helmsman of the Shuntian Escort Bureau is mainly responsible for overcoming the heavenly tribulation? Wait, did the Shuntian Escort Bureau bid for a piece of Lingsui Essence in the previous auction?" Shi Jiu was surprised, but then he was relieved.
Shi Jiu remembered that when he was protecting Jin Yan'er and others, Dong Tianling from Shuntian Escort Bureau had asked Jin Yan'er how to bid for a piece of spiritual saliva essence. Although the latter did not say it clearly, he also revealed some inside information. Dong Tianling must have been able to succeed because of this. Compete to win a share of the essence of Ling Saliva.
"Well, you guessed it right. In fact, this is also an agreement we reached in advance. The Shuntian Escort Bureau will help us reach Tonglin City smoothly. In turn, as long as they can bid for a piece of Lingshu Essence, we will agree Protect the other party, so the two don't owe each other." Jin Yuner confirmed Shi Jiu's guess, and at the same time also revealed their agreement with the Shuntian Escort Bureau.
"So that's it."
"Then would you?"
"Yes, of course I do! Being able to see a catastrophe for free is a blessing. Most people are not so lucky." Shi Jiu nodded in agreement.
"Sure enough, as I thought, you agreed. But I have to remind you that there is no reward for escorting this time." Jin Yuner continued.
"No, being able to watch a catastrophe is worth more than any reward." Shi Jiu replied readily.
"Okay, it's settled. If nothing unexpected happens, we will set off in three days."
"Okay, let Miss Yan'er arrange everything."
…
Tonglin City, Tonglin Palace.
"Teacher, are you looking for me?" Ren Tianye, wearing a golden black robe, walked in with sonorous and powerful steps.
"Yes." The master of Tonglin Palace, who was sitting at the head of the palace, nodded, with a group of elders beside him.
Ren Tianye was a little surprised. This kind of scene usually happens when the palace master and all the elders show up when there is something more important.
Now that the confrontation between the Jueshi Palace and the Ghost Fire Sect has just ended, logically speaking, there should be nothing major.
At this time, the great elder standing next to the master of Tonglin Palace said: "We have just received news that the group of bandits who attacked our Tonglin Palace in the Elegy Forest have appeared at the ruins of Blackwater City. We decided to have you and Er The elder, the third elder and others went to Blackwater City to arrest the bandits and recapture the thing we lost." Having said this, the face of the elder Tonglindian showed a hint of gloom and anger.
"That group of bandits showed up again? How audacious! Don't they know that we are looking for them?" After hearing what the great elder said, Ren Tianye also had an angry look on his face. The group of bandits were indeed too arrogant. They were completely They didn't take Tonglin Palace seriously, yet they dared to show up again.
"This time I will catch them all no matter what, and I will never let them escape again!"
Thinking of the last time he was attacked by the opponent in the Elegy Forest, Ren Tianye became very angry. In that attack, his fifth elder was even seriously injured by the opponent's leader, and he has not fully recovered yet. To be honest, Tong Lindian had never suffered such humiliation, but that sneak attack really slapped him in the face.
"This time when you go to Blackwater City, you must not be careless. The leader of the other party is a cultivator in the Linghui realm. He has escaped our pursuit many times. This shows that they are cunning by nature and extremely difficult to capture, so they can't be caught and killed on the spot. Anyway, If you want to see someone alive, you must see a corpse if you die! In addition, I must bring that thing back safely." Tong Lin, the resident of the palace, who was sitting at the head of the palace, said calmly, but his tone left no room for doubt.
"Yes, teacher, my disciple will not let you down!" Ren Tianye replied firmly.
"Amano, originally I would go with you this time, but the palace master is about to make a breakthrough. He took the essence of spiritual saliva last night. The disaster may come at any time. The Supreme Elder will go to a place with the palace master later. To break through the secret place, and I need to stay and guard the headquarters, so the task of arresting that group of bandits is in your hands." At this time, the great elder said.
"Teacher, are you going to make a breakthrough?" The great elder's words surprised and delighted Ren Tianye.
"Well, if you are lucky, you should be able to enter the soul realm." The master of Tonglin Palace showed a smile, but then his tone changed: "But it is still difficult. Even if you take the essence of Lingxiu, I feel that the success rate is low It’s only 50%. Isn’t it difficult to survive the heavenly tribulation? Otherwise, there would be no such thing as a perfect escape!”
At this moment, the eyes of Master Tonglin's eyes were filled with excitement and excitement, but also a hint of worry and fear.
The Heavenly Tribulation is like this. Countless people yearn for it, because it represents the recognition of your strength by the world. Only those whose own cultivation and strength reach a certain level can trigger it. If you successfully survive it, it will be another brand-new world, and you can travel in it. A broader stage; countless people are also afraid of it, because it is a super terror on your way forward. It is ruthless and ruthless. Once triggered, it will kill you resolutely and will not give you another chance to breathe, because it will destroy you. is its mission.
"Teacher will definitely be able to survive the catastrophe and become a soul-level powerhouse! When the time comes, we will bring back the bandit leader's head and that thing to celebrate the teacher!" Ren Tianye immediately congratulated.
Ren Tianye's words made Master Tonglin smile again.
"That's good. When the time comes, our Tonglin Palace will be blessed with double happiness, haha!"
"We wish that the master of the palace will be promoted to the soul realm and support me in the Tonglin Palace!" In the main hall, all the elders faced the master of the Tonglin Palace, bent down and clasped their fists to congratulate him, their faces full of excitement.
There is a mountain range five thousand miles southwest and west of Tonglin City called the Longzhen Mountains, and there is a valley in the center of this mountain range. At this moment, there are people guarding the valley. If you look carefully, these people have clothes on their clothes. Embroidered with the words Peerless Palace, everyone was attentive, watching every move in the area in front of them. In addition, pairs of patrol teams passed by from time to time.
In the middle of the valley is a large flat land, surrounded by flags of various colors, and in the center of the flat land are several people with majestic auras sitting cross-legged.
At this time, the great elder of Jueshi Palace, the master of Ba Dao Sect, and others arrived, and the guards responsible for guarding the valley got out of the way to allow the convoy to file in.
After a while, the elder of Jueshi Palace took the lead and came to the middle of the ground holding a crystal clear crystal bottle. Inside the crystal bottle was a jelly-like condensation that looked like a humanoid.
"You are here." A person in the middle said.
"Yes, Palace Master, I am fortunate to have fulfilled my mission and successfully brought back the Essence of Ling Saliva safely." The elder of the Peerless Palace handed over the crystal bottle.
After taking the crystal bottle, the Master of Jueshi Palace looked at it carefully, and then said with satisfaction: "Great Elder, you have done a good job. You are worthy of being the most trustworthy person in my Jueshi Palace. Are you having difficulty in shelling?"
"Back to the Palace Master, our Jueshi Palace has received obstruction from the Ghost Fire Sect this time. If it hadn't been for the secret soul treasure given by the Palace Master, I'm afraid the disaster would have been worse." The Great Elder of the Peerless Palace directly told the story about the ambush set up by the Ghost Fire Sect Master and others. , and at the same time it is indispensable to add fuel and vinegar.
"Hmph! Ghost Fire Sect, do you think that just because you have a strong soul realm, you can be unreasonable to my peerless palace?" At this time, an old man next to the master of the peerless palace stood up. At this moment, his breath was surging and he was powerful. , even more terrifying than the peerless Palace Master beside him.
"Back to the Supreme Elder, the Ghost Fire Sect is indeed abominable. We must vent this evil breath!" The Great Elder of Jueshi Palace bowed to the old man who just spoke.
The old man is the only soul-level expert in the Jueshi Palace, and he was also the previous master of the Jueshi Palace. He has now abdicated and became the Supreme Elder.
He originally lived in the palace for a long time, but because the master of Jueshi Palace is now preparing to survive the heavenly tribulation, he followed him here to ensure everyone's safety.
"This tone must be spoken. The most important thing at the moment is that the palace master obeys the heaven and transcends the heavenly tribulation and enters the soul realm." The Supreme Elder spoke again, and everyone else followed the order.
"Take the essence of Lingshu, and then prepare with peace of mind." The Supreme Elder said to the peerless palace master.
"Yes." The peerless palace master nodded.
