Chapter 152

"Chang'an Prefecture is on the other side of the Earth, very far from our Linjiang Prefecture."

"By then, won't there be no one to take care of your sister?"

Liu Tiezhu winked, "Jiang Jian, I wonder what requirements you have for your future brother-in-law?"

Jiang Jian looked at his sister and said softly: "As long as she likes it herself."

"I see," Liu Tiezhu was a bit disappointed, "I thought your word counted."

Yinyin stood by and smiled: "Liu Tiezhu, don't you have any designs on Jiang Zhao, I don't think you are suitable."

Liu Tiezhu blinked: "I was just asking."

They were all wearing the gold-threaded black robes of the Prayer Sect.

Only Yinyin was wearing a plain white dress.

"It's rare for Jiang Jian to come back once."

Shan Ye looked around, a bit happy, "Let's go eat."

Suddenly.

The gray fox jumped onto the large terrace and looked at Jiang Jian: "The things Zhou Lingling sent have arrived!"

Jiang Jian's eyes fixed, and he said: "You have already received the goods?"

Xueji shook her head and said: "I checked the logistics information, the transport shuttle entered the Triple Jiangcheng, and it should be delivered to the school within a few minutes."

Shan Ye asked: "Why, do you have something to do again?"

Jiang Jian was silent for a moment and said: "I do have something to do, eating is not urgent, how about next time?"

In another hour, the end-of-month auction in the Fifth Jiangcheng is about to begin.

Time is a bit tight.

Going out to eat is obviously too late.

After all, the ghost power source of the Spring Realm is not always available.

Jiang Jian needs to break through to the Spring Realm.

The spiritual treasure Long Que Jade is very important.

Hearing this, Shan Ye was obviously disappointed, but didn't say much.

Liu Tiezhu said: "Our head of the two academies is either cultivating or on the way to cultivate."

Jiang Zhao walked up to Zhou Qingyue and gave a beautiful smile: "Hello, I am Jiang Jian's sister, my name is Jiang Zhao."

Zhou Qingyue was a bit surprised and reached out to shake her hand lightly: "Hello, my name is Zhou Qingyue."

Jiang Zhao's eyes were very sharp.

She stared at Zhou Qingyue's slender white wrist, looking confused, and asked: "Sister Qingyue, where is your identity device?"

Every citizen of Earth has an identity device on their wrist, without exception.

Even non-official citizens, some monsters and spirits without arms, must carry an identity device with them.

Zhou Qingyue's wrist was extremely slender and fair, with no ornaments on it.

After these words fell.

Yinyin and Shan Ye and the others all looked over.

They looked at Zhou Qingyue's arm with different expressions.

For a time, everything went quiet.

"The goods have arrived!"

At this time, Xueji opened her identity device and said to Jiang Jian.

"Then I'll go handle things first."

Jiang Jian greeted Shan Ye and the others and turned to walk into the apartment, "Contact me via identity device."

Zhou Qingyue followed him into the room.

A few dozen seconds later.

Xueji walked on all fours, her tail curling around a few spiritual objects, walked onto the terrace, and stopped in front of Jiang Zhao.

"These items are cultivation resources selected for you by Jiang Jian."

She urged her spiritual energy to put the things down steadily.

The cultivation spirit ring on her neck was constantly emitting a faint light.

Jiang Zhao bent down, touched her furry head, and smiled: "You are rich now, you can afford technological equipment."

Xueji was a bit proud and said: "Your brother is still very good to me."

Jiang Zhao hugged her head, rubbed it affectionately, and said: "Taking good care of Jiang Jian and letting him focus on cultivation is the greatest reward for him."

"Okay."

Xueji arched her head, rubbed against the girl's black robe hem, a bit reluctant to part.

Jiang Zhao patted her: "Go quickly."

Xueji whispered: "Okay."

She took one last look at the girl, left the terrace, and turned to walk into the room.

The cross-boundary shuttle rose into the air.

"That girl just now was a bit strange."

Shan Ye stood by the cabin door, looking down at the accommodation building below.

Yinyin said softly: "Perhaps she is Jiang Jian's friend, but it is indeed puzzling that she doesn't have an identity device."

No matter what, no one thought of it.

Zhou Qingyue is not human at all.

It's just that her transformation is too realistic.

Ordinary students could not possibly distinguish it.

"By the way, where is your roommate?"

The girl in the white dress turned her head and looked at Jiang Zhao.

Jiang Zhao said: "Zhong Ling? She went back to Anhe Prefecture to visit relatives and hasn't returned to school yet, otherwise I would have called her for dinner."

"Okay," Yinyin asked, "What do you want to eat?"

Jiang Zhao hadn't spoken yet.

Shan Ye on the side sighed, his tone a bit sour: "You just spoil her."

The girl in the white dress chuckled: "Don't forget, she is now the main force of our team."

"I'm counting on her to get more credits."

She turned her head and looked at the person beside her, "Jiang Zhao, right?"

Jiang Zhao tucked her hair and returned a beautiful smile: "It should be."

First Courtyard, accommodation building.

"Take all these things."

Jiang Jian tied the wooden sword and walked onto the terrace, "Go to the Jiangcheng Auction House immediately."

Xueji had already prepared the cross-boundary shuttle, her tail surging with spiritual energy, curling around two large boxes, and boarded the gangway.

A few minutes later.

Jiang Jian's cross-boundary shuttle slowly rose into the air.

Its target was the auction house in the Fifth Jiangcheng.

"How much further are you from the Spring Realm?"

Zhou Qingyue leaned against the cabin door and looked at Jiang Jian.

Jiang Jian's expression was calm: "Soon."

Zhou Qingyue asked: "How much is soon?"

"Is this important?"

Jiang Jian said, "What do you want to do again?"

Zhou Qingyue said: "My hands are itchy, I want to find someone to fight."

Bang!

Jiang Jian was expressionless, suddenly made a move, the Hanging Mountain Seal brushed out of his sleeve and smashed toward Zhou Qingyue!

Her expression didn't change, in the blink of an eye, she raised her slender white arm and resisted the blow of the bronze seal!

In the cabin, there was an explosive sound of metal clashing!

The small bronze seal flew out and was pulled back by Jiang Jian.

"Unless you use all your spiritual essence to urge this thing when I'm not paying attention, like you did in the underground palace that day."

Zhou Qingyue retracted her hand, "Otherwise, it's hard for you to hurt me."

Jiang Jian was silent and did not refute.

The facts were indeed so.

It is not easy to fight across realms.

After all.

The God-Given Realm only has one cultivation aperture.

Even if the cultivation is perfect, the upper limit of spiritual essence ultimately has a limit.

And the Spring Realm has two cultivation apertures.

Connected to each other, supporting each other.

Under such superposition, it is definitely not something that an ordinary God-Given Realm can easily handle.

What's more.

Zhou Qingyue is not an ordinary Spring Realm.

Her cultivation is not low.

Jiang Jian stared at her and asked: "Your ghost power cultivation has increased again."

"Tell you something, you might not believe it."

Zhou Qingyue's expression was a bit weird, "Since I left the underground palace, basked in the sun, and stayed away from that piece of jade."

Speaking of this, she pointed to Jiang Jian's black robe sleeve, "My cultivation speed has increased a lot."

"According to my speculation."

"It's this piece of jade, being so close to me, absorbing my ghost power source day and night."

"Making me take more than three hundred years to cultivate to the Spring Realm."

"And I'm still a long way from the Divine Palace Realm."

As they spoke.

Xueji on the side had already adjusted the direction and manipulated the cross-boundary shuttle to fly toward the Fifth Jiangcheng.

Jiang Jian held the Long Que Jade, his thoughts flowing.

Spiritual essence having attributes is indeed a huge advantage.

Ghosts are born with Yin energy attributes.

This attribute has many characteristics.

And the spiritual essence cultivated by Earth mortals has no attributes at all.

There has never been any record of changing spiritual essence attributes in the seventy prefectures on the surface.

"The attribute of the dark black phoenix."

"Mainly fierce killing."

Jiang Jian stroked the cold black jade, not paying too much attention to its attributes.

No matter which spiritual essence attribute it is, it has its unique strengths.

The killing attribute brought by the Long Que Jade is obviously unusual.

It can even be said to be extremely rare.

But Jiang Jian's goal is only one, which is to increase the limit of spiritual essence again.

Changing the spiritual essence attribute is just icing on the cake for him.

The Jiangcheng Auction House is very lively.

This time, Jiang Jian did not make a big splash, nor did he notify Zhang Yan.

Instead, he picked out the useful things from the spiritual resource resources sent by Zhou Lingling.

The remaining resources were sold to the auction house at a fixed price according to the standard process.

"After selling the resources and buying the things, only 4 million Alliance coins are left."

Xueji jumped onto the gangway, her tail surging with spiritual energy, curling around three boxes.

The cabin door closed.

Jiang Jian took the boxes, his expression solemn: "Return to the campus immediately and go to the cultivation mansion!"

The cross-boundary shuttle rose into the air and fell toward the Triple Jiangcheng.

The box opened.

A group of Spring Realm ghost power sources floated inside.

Jiang Jian brushed his black robe sleeve, gathered the light group, and pressed it toward the Long Que Jade.

Sizzle!

The harsh sound of melting resounded through the cabin!

The ghost power source was consumed rapidly, and black energy was chaotic!

At the same time.

The Long Que Jade was also shrinking rapidly at an obvious speed.

Just a few dozen seconds.

A Spring Realm ghost power source had been exhausted and completely disappeared.

"More than 10 million Alliance coins, just gone like that."

Xueji on the side looked at this scene, her eyes a bit red.

Jiang Jian opened the second box, gathered the ghost power source, and pressed it toward the Long Que Jade again!

Sizzle!!!

This time the sound was even more intense!

The Long Que chirped, piercing the eardrum!

The dark black phoenix flapped its wings, changing between virtual and real, almost struggling out of the black jade!

A few dozen seconds later.

The second ghost power source was completely exhausted!

The dark black phoenix was lifelike, flying around the remaining small piece of jade.

Between its wings, strands of pitch-black light fell, starlight reflected, beautiful and peerless.

The cross-boundary shuttle stopped.

Below is the cultivation mansion.

"Your remaining time in the mansion: 5 hours."

"Daily remaining time can be accumulated automatically."

Stepping on the stone steps of the cultivation mansion, the notification sound rang.

Jiang Jian walked into the building, and the door opened.

The chief student position has been set.

The cultivation mansion is truly open to first-year students.

Under Gu Qi's special care, Jiang Jian can get 5 hours of time every day!

And if the time for the day is not used up, it can be accumulated automatically!

Jiang Jian walked through the hall, chose a brand new room, and walked in.

After the cultivation mansion opened, faction students could enter the internal rooms, no longer having to stay in the hall to cultivate like before.

This time, neither Zhou Qingyue nor Xueji came in.

Jiang Jian sat on the ground, his Shenque spiritual energy full.

"God-Given Realm 113%."

Taking a test light ball, Jiang Jian's eyes were slightly cold, his robe sleeves brushed, and he directly cut off the communication formation!

Between his pupils, frosty white karmic fire rose.

Scanning the test light ball, sensing repeatedly.

Until it was determined that the test instrument and the room's communication formation had been completely cut off.

Jiang Jian then condensed a strand of spiritual energy and suspended it beside him.

The next moment.

Jiang Jian took out the Long Que Jade and the last ghost power source and put them together.

Sizzle!!!

The melting speed of the Long Que Jade became much faster!

The Spring Realm ghost power source was even more surging with black energy, dissipating rapidly at a terrifying speed.

Crack!

Finally.

The Long Que black jade cracked!

This moment.

The spiritual energy surging from all directions seemed to stagnate.

A palm-sized dark black phoenix broke free from the jade shell, flapped its wings, and let out a clear chirp!

Its wings and tail feathers were all black.

Its gaze was cold and ruthless, with no intelligence in it.

Strands of pitch-black light circled between its wings.

In the blink of an eye.

Jiang Jian urged his spiritual essence source and rolled toward the dark black phoenix!

Boom!

The fine black light shattered, and the Long Que disappeared!

The next second, it appeared suddenly in the depths of Jiang Jian's Shenque!

Without warning.

This Long Que raised its head and hissed, spread its pitch-black wings, stretched its feathers, and shattered into black light filling the sky!

Every point of black light fell on the transparent aperture wall!

After just a moment.

Jiang Jian's Shenque aperture turned from thin as a cicada's wing to pitch black!

Countless black light spots flowed and intertwined, dyeing the Shenque aperture completely!

At the same time.

The test light ball hanging on the side trembled violently!

The numbers on it jumped suddenly!

"God-Given Realm 114%!"

"God-Given Realm 115%!"

Jumping twice in a row, the light on the instrument had completely bloomed, dazzling to the extreme!

"Not enough!"

Jiang Jian's expression was cold, urging his spiritual essence to squeeze hard against the aperture wall!

Boom!

As the black light dissipated, the aperture wall solidified again!

By changing the spiritual essence attribute, the dark black Shenque aperture had undergone a fundamental change.

Its toughness reached an unimaginable level!

"God-Given Realm 116%!"

The light ball numbers jumped again!

The spiritual energy around Jiang Jian had completely turned pitch black!

The fierce killing aura swept out!

The Shenque aperture reached the limit of limits, unable to advance any further!

"Perhaps, I can try one more time."

Jiang Jian showed madness.

After a slight estimation of the damage to his soul.

Jiang Jian immediately made up his mind, without any hesitation, and directly used the ice-blue micro-light!

A small amount of ice-blue micro-light drifted from his soul and fell into the Shenque aperture!

The cracks in his damaged soul spread suddenly!

The piercing pain spread throughout his body!

Jiang Jian's eyes went dark, and his consciousness was dazed.

But in an instant, he maintained his sobriety with terrifying willpower, guided his spiritual essence, and slammed into the aperture wall!

Crack!

The dark black Shenque aperture was shattered by the terrifying force from the inside out!

This moment.

The ice-blue micro-light drifted down.

Time seemed to stand still.

Under its suppression, the damaged Shenque was restored to its original state!

Jiang Jian took this opportunity to crazily temper the Shenque aperture wall amidst extreme pain and torture!

In a snap of a finger.

The ice-blue micro-light dissipated.

The dark black Shenque aperture had been tempered to a perfect state!

Truly unable to advance any further!

The test instrument jumped crazily!

"God-Given Realm 117%!"

"God-Given Realm 118%!"

"God-Given Realm 119%!"

"God-Given Realm 120%!"

"God-Given Realm 121%!"

After five consecutive jumps, the test light ball roared and exploded!

The sky full of broken light scattered.

Jiang Jian stood up, his gold-threaded black robe moved without wind, his eyes calm as an abyss.

Even though his damaged soul still transmitted stinging pain.

But to Jiang Jian, it was just a light breeze, unable to shake his state of mind in the slightest.

The Shenque aperture has reached perfection!

Perfection within perfection, no further progress possible!

For ordinary living beings, the limit of their life is 110% of the God-Given Realm!

Jiang Jian is at a terrifying 121% of the God-Given Realm!

Deep in the Shenque, black light flowed.

Starry halos circled between them.

There was a faint phantom of a dark black phoenix, traveling between them, hissing from time to time.

This scene is beautiful.

"Spring."

Jiang Jian's face was calm, brushing his robe sleeves.

The next second.

Black light intertwined.

The Spring aperture broke quietly.

The perfect Shenque aperture surged with spiritual energy, dyeing the Spring.

Silently.

Jiang Jian's Spring spiritual essence surged a lot!

Just entering the Spring, it filled a small half of the aperture!

Only.

Shenque spiritual energy is dark black.

Spring spiritual energy is still transparent.

"One step closer to the Spirit Platform Realm."

"Further away from death."

In silence, Jiang Jian took a step.

Black light scattered.

The next second.

His figure had already appeared outside the cultivation mansion.

Inches away from the end of the world.

In continuous movement.

In just a few seconds, Jiang Jian had actually returned to the accommodation building!

"So terrifying!"

Zhou Qingyue's body on the sofa trembled, staring at the black-robed boy, her pupils contracting sharply!
