Gu Qingshan stood there and was silent for a moment.

He made a secret, gathered the surrounding yellow sand, and covered it again on the divine frost crystal.

Then he patted the storage bag again and took out the array plate.

Gu Qingshan quickly connected dots on the array with his hands.

Soon, streaks of spiritual light emerged from the formation disk.

With the divine frost crystal as the center, various large-scale hidden magic circles are unfolded layer by layer.

Gu Qingshan thought for a while, and then arranged a small teleportation circle - this way, he can return here from other places in the world.

After doing all this, he put away the formation disk.

Okay, although these magic circles can't play a big role, they have gathered a total of seventeen kinds of concealment magic circles, which can slightly block the divine crystal.

Next, we have to find a way to cure Yun Ji.

——According to Wang Cheng’s memory, this is the Gray Hand World and the eleventh-ranked black market in the Hegemony Zone.

Although Wang Cheng has spent half his life on a spaceship and has little knowledge and is reluctant to spend money, at least he knows how prosperous the black market is and that there are all kinds of weird things in the black market.

The 200 million-layered world in the entire hegemony zone has given birth to countless civilizations, countless powerful people, as well as various rich resources and strange treasures.

A place like the black market does not accept taxes from any country or civilization, and all transactions here are protected by the black market owners.

Black market owners are often smart and charge a small fee for their services.

Therefore, visitors from all walks of life who were impressed by the amazing profits naturally flocked to the store.

In the black market, there may be some knowledge and intelligence that can help Gu Qingshan understand how to cure overlord-level powerhouses.

So the best option now is to check out the black market.

Gu Qingshan made up his mind and no longer hesitated.

He took out a magic pill and held it in his mouth——

This world is quite vast, and even with his cultivation in the middle of a thousand tribulations, he still needs to travel a long distance to reach the black market.

everything's ready.

Gu Qingshan rushed into the sky, turned into a stream of light, and flew towards the distance.



Gray hand world.

High in the sky.

The sky is filled with wind and sand.

The whole world is deep in quicksand.

Occasionally, there are some extremely rare areas where the wind and sand are able to bypass due to the existence of certain mysterious forces.

Gu Qingshan flew for a day and a night, and finally felt a little tired.

At this time, the sky is bright and the hottest time of the day has arrived.

It's noon.

Above the boundless wind and sand, seven suns line up in a row, emitting intense heat.

Everything is anxious.

If he hadn't used spiritual power to protect himself, Gu Qingshan felt that he would have been roasted long ago.

——In Wang Cheng’s perception, this is a world that was once almost destroyed.

It's a pity that Wang Cheng has low strength and low status, and he doesn't know the ins and outs of the whole thing.

Gu Qingshan felt slightly regretful.

There is too little information, which is not conducive to subsequent strategic arrangements.

He felt how much his spiritual power was being consumed, and then looked down at the earth.

The turbulent sea of ​​sand covered the sky, blocking the line of sight and making everything unclear.

As a last resort, he released his spiritual thoughts and carefully observed the world under the wind and sand.

——Under the windy sand, there is still windy sand.

After a while, Gu Qingshan finally found a place to stay temporarily.

Beneath the countless winds and sands, in the vast expanse of desert, there is actually a small area full of life.

It was a big green tree.

The tree poked out from the back of the dune, emitting an emerald green light that dispersed the wind and sand around it.

Near the big tree, because of this emerald green light, a small world is formed that is quiet and full of vitality.

Gu Qingshan flew down without much hesitation.

After flying in the wind and sand for so long, his physical strength was somewhat exhausted. He needed to take a rest and eat something.

He landed in front of the big tree and let out his spiritual thoughts to explore the surroundings carefully.

There is nothing nearby.

Gu Qingshan walked to the big tree, bowed seriously and said, "I don't mean any harm, I'm just tired from flying, so I came here to rest for a while."

He patted the storage bag, took out a gourd of spiritual spring, and poured it on the branches of the big tree.

——This is the rule of conduct that Gu Qingshan came up with himself.

In the desert, spring water containing spiritual power like this should be very rare.

If the tree had life and intelligence, such a spring would satisfy it.

Gu Qingshan got Wang Cheng's memory.

Although Wang Cheng is only the lowest level garbage collector, he also deeply understands that there are too many countless and incredible types of strange life forms in the hegemony area.

Gu Qingshan tried to think along this line of thought.

From now on, my journey in the hegemony zone will be long.

If you arrive in a strange place, you will inevitably attract the attention of local species.

In such a situation, the best way to deal with it is to express your wishes and attitude in advance.

——Even in the most savage environment, kindness and avoidance have always been one of the most basic rules of survival.

The other more intense way of survival is, of course, fighting.

But after experiencing what happened to the light-shaped man, Gu Qingshan felt that the wisdom of any living being must not be underestimated.

Because the light-shaped man appears among billions of creatures, even the void monsters have been declared by the light-shaped man.

This proves one thing.

The Seven Gods believe that all living beings in the Contest Zone have spiritual intelligence and can embark on the road to becoming gods.

This seems to mean that all living beings are equal.

Therefore, if we regard all sentient beings as intelligent beings with equal existence, then of course we must express our attitude when entering other people's territory.

No one would welcome an unknown stranger into their home.

But if a stranger shows kindness, that's a different story.

I believe that in such a situation, as long as the being is not too cruel, he will generally not kill directly.

This is Gu Qingshan's first opinion about the hegemony zone.

So at this moment, Gu Qingshan directly expressed his attitude when he arrived, and even presented a spiritual spring to the big tree.

But he saw the spiritual spring pouring onto the big tree, and it was quickly absorbed by the big tree.

Suddenly, a buzzing sound came from the big tree.

"I haven't drunk such sweet spring water for a long time. If you can, please give me some more. Thank you."

Gu Qingshan looked at the big tree in surprise.

He took another gourd of spiritual spring and watered it on the big tree.

All the spring water was absorbed immediately.

"kindness……"

A satisfied sigh came from the tree.

It continued: "Long journey traveler, your spring water makes me feel happy, you can rest here."

——The meaning is obvious, you are not allowed to rest here before this.

Gu Qingshan understood immediately.

It seems that I did the right thing.

He hugged his fists and said, "Thank you very much."

"You're welcome, if you can, please give me another gourd," Dashu said, seeming a little embarrassed about his request: "Because my child will be back soon, and I forgot to leave some for it - It will probably like this spring water."

Gu Qingshan smiled.

This is a world of quicksand. Even after flying for so long, I haven't seen any water source.

It is said that the world was almost destroyed.

No wonder the spring water is so popular.

——It's just spring water, I have more of it.

Gu Qingshan took out another gourd of spring water and placed it on the ground next to the big tree.

"Give it to you," he said.

The sand and gravel on the ground opened up a deep hole, and the gourd was submerged in it.

"Ah, thank you very much." Dashu said happily.

"You're welcome, I want to use your precious place to rest, so naturally I brought a small gift." Gu Qingshan waved his hand.

Dashu said: "I am not one of those ungrateful humanoid robbers, so I have a little gift to give you in return - it's not a good thing, I hope you don't dislike it."

On the big tree, a dark branch broke and fell directly next to Gu Qingshan.

"Please take it, this is a little bit of my thoughts." Dashu said.

Gu Qingshan looked at the branch.

What use can something like this...have?

But he had no choice but to accept it, otherwise wouldn't it embarrass the other party?

"Thank you, Your Excellency." He thanked him.

"Yeah." Dashu said.

Having said this, there is no need to say any more.

Gu Qingshan made a casual gesture, pulled the branches out of the air, and put them into the storage bag.

Then he took out a futon, sat on it, ate and drank, and then began to rest.

Time passed quickly.

Two hours later.

Gu Qingshan opened his eyes, his whole face was full of energy.

He suddenly discovered that there was a palm-sized black scorpion on the sand in front of him.

The black scorpion seemed to be looking at him curiously.

When Gu Qingshan opened his eyes, Scorpion was startled.

The scorpion quickly hid in the sand and disappeared without a trace.

Gu Qingshan didn't take it seriously, smiled, stood up and prepared to leave.

"Your Excellency, farewell." He said towards the big tree.

"Where are you going?" Dashu asked curiously.

"Go to the black market. I have never been to that place before, so I went to have a look." Gu Qingshan said.

"Oh - why did you go there?" Dashu continued to ask.

"I want to learn some knowledge and skills in healing, because my friend was seriously injured and I have no idea." Gu Qingshan said calmly.

"Cure it," Dashu sighed, "I can't do anything about curing it. You are a kind-hearted little guy, go ahead."

"Well, farewell." Gu Qingshan cupped his fists and said.

"Goodbye." Dashu said.

Gu Qingshan rose into the sky and flew towards the distant sky.

He left the wind-free sand area covered by big trees.

Suddenly, endless wind and sand hit.

In an instant, he suddenly discovered that a dozen people appeared beside him.

When Gu Qingshan saw the other party, the other party also saw him.

By coincidence, both parties happened to be heading in the same direction.

——It seems they are all rushing to the black market.

Gu Qingshan thought for a while and silently moved out of the way so that the other party could fly over first.

First, there were many people on the other side, second, he didn't want to bump into her and cause trouble, and third, Yun Ji was still seriously injured, so he had to focus on his own affairs and quickly find a way to save her.

Seeing him acting like this, the dozen or so people showed satisfaction on their faces.

They looked at each other.

One person raised his hand and pointed towards Gu Qingshan.

On his hand was a piece of equipment that looked like a watch.

Looking at something on this "watch", the man reported a value to his partner.

After hearing that number, a group of people immediately relaxed.

The leader thought for a moment and made a gesture to everyone.

——At the same time, a warning sign emerged in Gu Qingshan's heart.

Gu Qingshan suddenly understood.

Disaster!

Damn it, the second calamity has already come!

It had been lurking until this moment when it was about to disperse, and then it suddenly attacked unwillingly!

Caught off guard——

boom!

Gu Qingshan avoided seven or eight attacks, but was hit hard by the last spell and flew backwards.

Like a parabola, Gu Qingshan flew back to the big tree.

Bang!

He hit the ground, and the huge impact set off huge waves of sand. Even the black land hidden under the sand sea faintly emerged in front of him.

Gu Qingshan shook his head and flew up.

This was an unpremeditated chance encounter and a spur-of-the-moment murderous intention.

Fortunately, he was not seriously injured as he had the divine armor with him.

There were just a few tiny cracks on the armor.

Gu Qingshan jumped up high and instantly drew the Night Rain Bow.

The dozen or so people had already flown over.

They stopped in mid-air, laughing and staring at Gu Qingshan.

"Brother Zhi, this man is an archer, his combat value is too weak, and he has no profit." One person said with a smile.

"No matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat. If you encounter one, just kill it."

The man called Brother Zhi said nonchalantly.

A burly man said: "He is an archer. I can easily kill a dozen of these weaklings."

Gu Qingshan heard what they meant.

He didn't care about anything else.

Things like killing——

At this time, another short man drew out his dagger and said: "Whoever kills will be the first to search -"

Snapped!

Before he could finish his sentence, Gu Qing shot him in the head with an arrow.

A cloud of blood mist burst out.

Several people suddenly changed their colors.

"Asshole, you seem to really know some archery skills, come with me!" Brother Zhi yelled.

A dozen people took out their weapons and rushed towards Gu Qingshan.

Gu Qingshan flew back and drew out the arrow.

Uh-huh!

Flurry starts!

Five arrows turned into afterimages and blasted into the crowd in a twisted arc, killing two more people in an instant!

Brother Zhi was extremely upset.

This time, I believed too much in the machine's prediction, so I was hit back by the opponent.

"Damn it! His archery skills are better than what the machine calculated. We must get close immediately!"

pity--

Everyone knows the truth, but Gu Qingshan's shrinkage moves too fast, and these people can't catch up.

One breath of time.

Another person was shot in the arm by Gu Qingshan.

This man was none other than the burly man.

He angrily pulled out the arrow on his arm and shouted at the people around him: "Come here everyone!"

After hearing his roar, people immediately came towards him.

The burly man gritted his teeth and glared at Gu Qingshan, saying to everyone: "This man's life and things belong to me."

"Okay!" Everyone nodded.

The big man rubbed the ring on his finger and immediately activated the spell on the ring: "Chaos Transfer!"

Chaos transfer, space skills, magical skills, immediately lead the companions within ten meters in diameter, through the space barrier, directly appear around the enemy within one thousand meters, and form an encirclement.

In an instant, a white light burst into the sky from the ring.

Everyone disappears.

They appeared around Gu Qingshan and completely surrounded him.

For an archer, they were just the right amount of siege.

Remote professions simply cannot escape from such siege.

"Boy," the burly man said with a ferocious smile, "Archery is a trick played by girls. You can't run away now."

Gu Qingshan had a strange expression on his face.

He didn't speak either.

The long bow and arrows suddenly disappeared.

A flash of cold light pierced the sky, and a sword dance burst out like a blazing full moon.

Secret sword, chasing life!

Magical power, separation!

Secret Sword, Moon Slash—Full Moon Continuous Slash!

Everyone stood frozen on the spot, motionless as the sword light cut them into several pieces, and their bodies were blown away without a trace by the sharp sword wind.

Gu Qingshan slowly sheathed his sword.

He looked at the blood dripping on the yellow sand, shook his head and sighed.

"Sorry, archery is just a warm-up. I usually use a sword for real killings."
