Early the next morning, outside the valley.
"Miss Yan'er, just send it here. Thank you very much for the hospitality these days. Shi Jiu will remember it in my heart." Shi Jiu expressed his gratitude to Jin Yuner.
"No need to thank me, we are mutually beneficial." Jin Yan'er said with a smile: "I was going to give you a Red Pegasus, but since you don't want it, it's up to you."
"I appreciate your kindness. Chi Tianma really can't accept it. Anyway, Blackwater City is not far from here. I can reach it in a day or two."
"Well, I'll listen to you then. Besides, don't miss the time when you're exploring treasures. The Secret Realm of Lost Dreams will open in half a year, so you have to leave early then." Jin Yuner warned.
"Don't worry, I will get there on time." Shi Jiu promised.
"Okay, then I wish you a safe journey and lots of treasure hunting." Jin Yuner gave a final smile.
"Okay, see you then." After saying that, Shi Jiu walked out of the valley.
Above the valley, Dong Tianling and Mr. Ming Jing were watching Shi Jiu and Jin Yuner say goodbye.
"Brother Mingjing, this little guy should be the boy named Shi Jiu that Yan'er invited back in Moluo Cave, right?" Dong Tianling said casually.
"Well, yes, it seems that entering the soul realm has the advantage of being able to see through some special masks." Mr. Ming Jing nodded.
"I can indeed see through some of it. In addition, I feel that his aura is exactly the same as that of the little guy Shi Jiu in Moluo Cave before, but it is stronger, so I judge that they are the same person." Dong Tianling did not hide it.
In fact, Dong Tianling had a brief encounter with Shi Jiu when he was escorting the Fengbaozhai convoy to Tonglin City. At that time, the other party gave him a feeling of déjà vu. It was not until yesterday after he was promoted to the soul realm after overcoming the tribulation, that he met again. After seeing Shi Jiu, he discovered the clue. After a little judgment, he concluded that the two were the same person.
"But this kid is really amazing. He was beaten deep into the cracks of the earth by Huo Qianli in the Moluo Cave, and the entire hall collapsed. He didn't even die. He is still alive and well. I really don't know how he did it." Looking at Shi Jiu's leaving figure, Dong Tianling said in disbelief.
"I feel the same as you. When Yan'er told me that boy Shi Jiu was still alive and came to Fengbaozhai specially, I was also surprised." Mr. Ming Jing said with a smile.
"Some time ago, the Yu Xin Beads from the Fire Fist Sect and Shuitian Pavilion on Yu Xin Island were robbed. It must have been his doing. He has a strong desire to hold grudges." Dong Tianling said with a smile.
"However, Fire Fist Sect and Shuitian Pavilion should also know who robbed their things, and Shi Jiu should also have heard the news from Yan'er, so he chose to leave here today and not go to Lanhai County with us. "
"Well, it's possible, so where does he plan to go?" Dong Tianling nodded in agreement with Mr. Ming Jing, and then continued to ask.
"Blackwater City."
"Blackwater City? Do you really want to go there to explore and hunt for treasure?" Dong Tianling was a little curious.
"Maybe, but I can't see through this kid. He feels like a fog to me. I can never guess what he will do next and what achievements he will have in the future." Staring at the background of Shi Jiu's retreat, Mr. Mirror Said softly.
"Haha, we both feel the same." Dong Tianling nodded, "You also saw his performance at the tribulation scene yesterday. Darling, this kid's willpower is really strong. He can even be said to be a monster. He is not inferior to ordinary people. He is a strong man in the Sky Chong Realm. In the end, the elder of our escort agency couldn't stand the pressure of the Heavenly Tribulation and took the initiative to retreat, but that kid didn't retreat and stood in the same position as you!" At this point, Dong Tianling's face changed. He showed an expression of amazement.
"Well, the pressure of the last few silver tribulations was indeed astonishing. The average Sky Chong realm couldn't resist it, but I noticed that this kid not only couldn't resist it, but also didn't seem to have reached his limit." Recalling Mr. Ming Jing was amazed at Shi Jiu's performance yesterday in resisting the pressure of the catastrophe.
"I feel that that kid can compare with the descendants of the superpowers of the three central government offices." Dong Tianling said suddenly.
"This is a bit too much. Shi Jiu should be as good as those descendants in terms of willpower, but his cultivation talent and the resources behind him are far from enough. There is still a long way to go." Mr. Ming Jing shook his head.
Although Mr. Ming Jing has been away from the Three Central Government Houses for several years, he often receives news from there. He has also heard about the descendants of the superpowers in the Three Central Houses. Some of them are of the same age as Shi Jiu, Jin Yuner and others. It is the cultivation of the central realm of the fifth heaven of the Po realm, and Shi Jiu is now in the late stage of the Po realm, and even Jin Yuner is only in the early stage of the Po realm. The gap is a bit big, so Mr. Ming Jing does not think that Shi Jiu can compete with those descendants of super powers. .
For example, Miss Hou who was escorted by Mr. Lin whom he received at Fengbaozhai in Tonglin City a few days ago, her cultivation level has reached the central level, and she seems to be younger than Shi Jiu and others.
"That's not necessarily true. Don't forget that the boy feels like a fog to us. We can't see through it at all. It's hard to say what will happen to him in the future. It's a bit early to draw conclusions about him now." Dong Tianling is more optimistic about Shi Nine, gave a different view.
"It's a bit early to draw conclusions now, but we should be able to see something about the secret realm of the wet dream half a year later." Then Mr. Ming Jing changed the topic: "Is your elder elder sure that he will not survive the tribulation?"
"Well, the great elder has decided to leave the remaining essence of spirit saliva to Xiaohu. He has already determined that he will not be able to survive yesterday's catastrophe. His heart has shrunk and he will never have another chance." Dong Tianling sighed. tone.
After he overcame the tribulation yesterday, the Great Elder had a secret talk with him and gave up the plan of overcoming the tribulation. Although he told the Great Elder, the Great Elder had made up his mind and would not change it.
"Well, it's a wise decision. If you don't have a firm mentality and courage to move forward, you will never be able to survive the catastrophe." Mr. Ming Jing nodded.
Yesterday when Dong Tianling overcame the tribulation, Mr. Ming Jing also saw the performance of the Great Elder. In the final stage, under the pressure of the silver lightning, the Great Elder flinched, which showed that he had become afraid and lost his firm belief in overcoming the tribulation. Such a mentality It is impossible to successfully overcome the tribulation.
"In that case, let's continue setting off later."
"Um."
Afterwards, the two disappeared and returned to the camp in the valley.
On the other side, Shi Jiu also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally left." Shi Jiu looked back at the place above the valley where Dong Tianling and his two men stayed.
In fact, as early as when Dong Tianling and Mr. Ming Jing arrived, Shi Jiu's spiritual consciousness had already discovered each other in advance, but he deliberately did not raise his head to look at them. After all, one was at the peak of the Soul Realm and the other had just entered the Soul Realm. Any move he made would be noticed by the other party. Two people were discovered.
At this stage, Shi Jiu doesn't want to deal with such a person. He has too many secrets. If the other party discovers them, it may cause unnecessary trouble.
"The chief rudder of the Shuntian Escort Bureau has successfully entered the soul realm. He must be able to tell who I am, right?"
Before Dong Tianling passed through the tribulation, Shi Jiu felt that the other party had some suspicions about him. At yesterday's celebration banquet, Shi Jiu noticed that Dong Tianling glanced at him a few times intentionally or unintentionally. That look and movement indicated that the other party should be Seeing his true identity, this was also the reason why Shi Jiu wanted to leave early.
Half an hour after leaving the valley, Shi Jiu unfolded his flying wings, fluttered into the air, and then flew rapidly towards the north.
…
A dense forest northwest of the ruins of Blackwater City.
"Chief, we are so lucky. We actually dug out a secret stronghold in Blackwater Palace. There are so many good things in it." A bald man with a shiny head faced Yuan Yuan, who was directing his men to search for items. The big-faced man complimented.
Hearing the bald man complimenting himself, the round-faced man laughed loudly: "Of course, it doesn't matter who I am. I am a professional treasure hunter well-known in Longnan County. I need to be talented and capable, and I need to be strong!"
"What the leader said is true. Under your leadership, we little ones can also eat meat and drink alcohol every day." The bald head continued to flatter, making the round-faced man feel proud.
"There's just one thing. Tonglin Palace is still looking for us, so the brothers haven't dared to go to the city to have fun for many days." The bald head suddenly changed the topic, and the expression on his face fell.
"Huh? Tonglin Palace is still looking for us? There is also a wanted order for us in Blackwater City?" The round-faced man was a little unconvinced.
Ever since they robbed Tonglin Palace in the Elegy Forest a month ago, they have been wanted by the other party. He originally thought that the other party wanted them in the Elegy Forest area, but he didn't expect that Tong Lindian would post the wanted notice here as well.
"Yes, leader, I saw your wanted notice at the gate of Blackwater City the day before yesterday, and they doubled the bounty." Bald Head said quickly.
"What an annoying fly. It ruined my luck. Anyway, after we finish here, we will leave and go to other counties. I don't believe that Tong Lindian can paste the wanted order to other counties." The round-faced man was a little agitated. He said angrily.
"Then chief, where should we go next?"
"Go to Lanhai County. I heard that there are many ruins there." The round-faced man determined the direction. "Okay, stop talking nonsense. Everyone, please work harder and give me everything here." Evacuate, don’t leave anyone behind!”
"Yes, chief."
…
Heishui City is a newly built city just south of the original Heishui City ruins. It has a history of two thousand years. After a thousand years of development, it is now an extremely prosperous city in Longnan County. In addition, it is close to the ruins of the old Heishui City. It has a long history in Longnan County. It has a good reputation and many big sects have branches here.
At this moment, the second elder of Tonglin Palace and others were sitting in the branch of Blackwater City.
"Elder, the people we are following reported that the bandits are currently in a dense forest northwest of the Blackwater City ruins. It seems that they have dug up a treasure trove and have entered it." In the hall, a young man from Tonglin Hall The disciple replied.
"Oh? These guys are still somewhat capable, and they can actually dig up treasures? Could it be the treasures buried in Blackwater Palace?" The third elder was slightly surprised when he heard the report from his subordinates.
"If that's the case, they can use the treasures they dug up in one pot as a gift for the palace master's promotion. The palace master will definitely be very happy." The second elder smiled slightly after taking a sip of tea.
"In this case, without further ado, second elder, let's set off now." Ren Tianye on the side suggested.
"Well, gather the team and set off now." After taking the last sip of tea, the second elder stood up and ordered his men.
Five minutes later, the second elder of Tonglin Palace led the team towards the northwest direction of the ruins of Blackwater City.
