Chapter 305

The influx of fifty-nine shares of soul power made Xu Qing's whole body roar instantly, and fifty-nine Dharma Apertures in his body erupted, constantly suppressing these souls.

Because there were too many at once, it took some time to refine them, so Xu Qing immediately sat cross-legged and absorbed them with all his strength.

At the same time, Seventh Master swept his gaze across the surroundings and curled his lips.

"Just these small shrimps, somewhat boring."

In his words, he flicked his sleeve, and suddenly a magic ship that looked ordinary appeared in mid-air. The shape of this magic ship was somewhat similar to Xu Qing's ship, but looking at the appearance, it was a bit more tattered.

But its divinity flowed, very rich.

At the same time, Ding Xue was also lying on the deck of this magic ship. Clearly, when Xu Qing rushed out and fought with the old man, Ding Xue had already been taken away by Seventh Master.

At this moment, just waking up, Ding Xue's face was still dazed. After looking down and seeing Seventh Master outside the magic ship, she was stunned for a moment.

"Aunt's husband?" Then she saw Xu Qing sitting cross-legged beside Seventh Master, noticing the sweat on Xu Qing's forehead and the invisible fire on his body, constantly rising. Ding Xue's expression was hesitant.

"Aunt's husband, what happened, you... why are you here, and what happened to Brother Xu Qing?" Ding Xue blinked. She had a bad guess in her heart, and this guess made her face turn red instantly.

"No way, could it be that all the way, Aunt's husband has been following behind? Wouldn't that mean all my previous actions were seen..." Ding Xue's face was redder. The feeling of being seen by a parent acting like a spoiled child made her feel shy and annoyed.

Seeing Ding Xue like this, Seventh Master laughed. He had indeed seen it clearly.

Hearing Seventh Master's laughter, Ding Xue stomped her feet with a red face and acted like a spoiled child.

"Aunt's husband!"

"Didn't see, I didn't see anything." Seventh Master coughed. Having no offspring, he was very doting on this niece.

At this moment, amidst the laughter, Seventh Master flicked his sleeve, rolled Xu Qing directly onto the magic ship, and after throwing Xu Qing aside casually, Seventh Master raised his right hand and turned it over. A soul bead appeared in his hand. Just as he was about to speak, he found Ding Xue looking at Xu Qing with a heartache expression.

The expression on that face was clearly heartache for Xu Qing being thrown aside by himself casually.

"He has thick skin and flesh, it's fine." Seventh Master felt somewhat depressed in his heart.

"Aunt's husband, Brother Xu Qing is still young and is growing his body. Can you be gentler to him next time? Is that okay? When I go back, I will put in more good words for you in front of Aunt." Ding Xue ran to Seventh Master's side, shaking his arm and acting like a spoiled child.

Seventh Master looked at Ding Xue, then looked at Xu Qing who was completely unaware and still refining the soul, and sighed long. He faintly found the feeling of his daily life with his eldest disciple.

At this moment, he shook his head helplessly, pressed the soul bead in his hand directly on Ding Xue's forehead, and patted it gently.

"Alright, alright, go and practice quickly. This soul bead can support you to open one fire as soon as possible."

"Thank you, Aunt's husband." Ding Xue became happy, found a place close to Xu Qing, sat cross-legged, closed her eyes to practice, full of joy.

Seventh Master turned his head to look at the two sitting there, his heart full of emotions and sighs. After a long while, he turned his head, stood at the bow with his hands behind his back, looking at the distance, swept his gaze across the surroundings, snorted coldly, controlled the magic ship, and whistled forward.

After the magic ship went far away, the void here twisted, and two figures wearing golden robes blurred out. Their bodies were filled with sword energy, carrying sharpness, but their expressions were filled with bitterness.

"This Sect Master of the Seven Blood Eyes..."

"With him here, it's not something we can fight against. This time he didn't make a move on the two of us. I think on one hand, it's for the sake of the alliance, and on the other hand, it's also a warning for me to pass this scene back."

The two of them came from the Lingyun Sword Sect.

"This Xu Qing himself is already extraordinary, and has such a background... It will be more and more difficult to deal with in the future, especially after this incident, you never know whether he is hiding such a strong person behind him when he is alone in the future."

The two looked at each other and left shaking their heads.

After they left, there were a few breaths permeating the void around here, turning into several figures. They were also silent, guarding against each other, and sighing at the same time.

Unlike the two just now, they were not alliance cultivators, but rogue cultivators of Yinghuang Province. This time they received the news that Xu Qing, the one with two life lamps of the Eight Sect Alliance, went out, so they rushed over to see if there was a chance to plunder.

But they knew Xu Qing's background, so after coming, they just watched and didn't act rashly. And the scene afterwards completely scared them. At this moment, what they thought in their hearts was the same as the two Lingyun Sword Sect cultivators.

"This is the attitude of the Seven Blood Eyes..."

"Warning everyone who is peeping."

"And the alliance protection announced by the Eight Sect Alliance some time ago, killing this Xu Qing... the price paid is too great."

"Although life lamps are good, life only has one time."

Everyone's thoughts turned, and they soon dispersed one after another. And the rumors about this matter spread slowly with their departure.

This was the protection Seventh Master gave Xu Qing, and also a warning to others.

Just like that, time passed. Seven days later at dusk, Xu Qing, who was sitting cross-legged on the magic ship, opened his eyes.

The moment his eyes opened, the sixty Dharma Apertures in his body emitted astonishing fire, and there was a thunder-like roar echoing in his mind.

Half of the one hundred and twenty Dharma Apertures now suppressed souls. Under this constant suppression, his cultivation also clearly improved, and even the fire changed. There was a bit more shrillness in the evil fire, which was the strong resentment produced by the soul being constantly burned.

This was the Dark Soul Fire.

The power of this fire contained emotions. Once it burned on the enemy, it could affect them. The light ones would have violent fluctuations in their emotions, and the heavy ones would have their souls damaged, collapsed, and shattered.

"How does it feel?" Inside the bow, Seventh Master, who was standing there, turned his head to look at Xu Qing and said indifferently.

"Many thanks, Master!" Xu Qing stood up and cupped his fists in a salute.

"From now on, you will be much safer when you go out. Then, I will take you to do the second thing, which is also the main reason for this trip."

"Teach you... Golden Core cultivation technique."

Xu Qing's eyes narrowed when he heard this.

"But it's still a bit short. You don't have to be anxious. I still need to ponder this cultivation technique." After Seventh Master finished speaking, he glanced at Ding Xue who was still practicing on the side, raised his right hand and waved, added a protection to her, and walked out of the magic ship.

"Follow me."

Xu Qing followed immediately when he heard this, left the magic ship with Seventh Master, and walked toward the mountains below.

Although this place was not Taisi Due Mountain, it was also filled with mountains and forests. Pitch-black mountain peaks emitted a sinister meaning in this dusk.

And looking from the sky, one could see that there was a sect between the mountain peaks below.

This sect was not small. The range of the mountain gate covered three mountain peaks, and one could even see many disciples shuttling between the mountains.

"This is the Heavenly Spirit Sect, not a sect belonging to the alliance, just a small and medium-sized sect, and its strength is average. But there is a cultivation technique in this sect that is somewhat wonderful." Seventh Master walked directly toward this sect while bringing Xu Qing.

The next instant, Xu Qing's expression was somewhat strange. He found that his master was taking him and ignoring the array protection of this sect, walking directly into the mountain gate. And all the disciples of this sect they met while moving forward turned a blind eye to them, as if they couldn't see them.

And after Seventh Master swept his gaze, he took Xu Qing directly to the Scripture Library of this sect. The two Golden Core old men guarding here also didn't perceive anything, letting Xu Qing and Seventh Master walk past them, step into this library, and enter the top floor where ordinary disciples couldn't walk.

All the prohibition means here lost their effect in front of Seventh Master at this moment, as if they couldn't investigate him at all. And Seventh Master also naturally grabbed the cultivation technique jade slips floating in mid-air in this library, checking them one by one as if in his own study.

Xu Qing glanced at Seventh Master and didn't speak.

"What are you stunned for? You must study seriously. Master got this spell specifically for learning by thinking of ways back then." Seventh Master glared at Xu Qing and taught him a lesson.

Xu Qing nodded seriously, raised his right hand to grab a jade slip, and looked at it intently.

Just like that, the master and disciple were immersed in learning with full concentration on the top floor of the Heavenly Spirit Sect's Scripture Library. Seventh Master was very serious, and Xu Qing was even more serious. Especially after he saw a few jade slips recording the herbs of Yinghuang Province, he became more and more invested.

A few days later, Seventh Master had read all the jade slips here and was very emotional.

"Not bad, not bad. This Heavenly Spirit Sect really has its mystery in the control of magic power. It's just a pity that it's too much worse in other aspects."

Xu Qing also nodded, still wanting more. The herb knowledge recorded here, although not small in quantity, was not sharp enough in description, but it also benefited him a lot and mastered more herb changes.

"The Pharmacopoeia is also like this. This sect should have had herb-path cultivators many years ago. It's a pity that few people have studied it since then, so those herb canons have fewer annotations and supplements from later generations." Xu Qing sighed.

Seventh Master nodded, revealing appreciation in his eyes.

"Like learning, this is a good habit." Saying this, he walked away with his hands behind his back, taking Xu Qing away from the Scripture Library.

On the way, Xu Qing hesitated.

"Master, I like learning knowledge very much. I wonder if Master can teach me this spell specifically for learning..."

Seventh Master swept a glance at Xu Qing, his appreciation deeper, and nodded with satisfaction.

"You can't master it with your current cultivation. Wait until you reach Nascent Soul, and I will teach you this method specifically for learning."

"Let's go, let's go to other sects to see. In order to create a Golden Core cultivation technique that belongs exclusively to you, Master has studied for a long time. This time, I have prepared several sects to learn their cultivation techniques, so as to make adjustments."

"So you kid must be promising in the future!" Saying this, Seventh Master walked out of this sect.

Xu Qing nodded heavily, followed behind, stepped into mid-air with Seventh Master, and returned to the magic ship.

On the magic ship, Seventh Master greeted Xu Qing.

"We cultivators must learn without forgetting gratitude. You must remember this point. Come, let's worship this sect, which is considered to return this fate of reading scriptures. In this way, even if we are enemies in the future, we can fight and kill with peace of mind." Saying this, Seventh Master bowed toward the sect below.

Xu Qing was solemn. He felt that his master's way of doing things did have its rules, so he remembered this etiquette firmly and bowed toward the sect below.

Then, they left.

When they came, no one knew.

When they left, there was no sound.

Soon the magic ship shook in the sky and went away to the horizon. A few days later, it stopped outside another sect. Seventh Master took Xu Qing, and the two walked off the magic ship with persistence for learning, went to this sect, and went to the Scripture Library.

Continue learning.

Just like that, time passed, and the magic ship went all the way west, crossing Taisi Due Mountain.

Stopped from time to time on the way, one sect after another...

"The sea of learning is boundless. Old Fourth, you are very good. When I brought your Third Senior Brother, that thing who didn't learn and didn't have skills, I had this experience, but he didn't like learning at all. And your Eldest Senior Brother, always thinking about the treasures of other sects when following Master."

"Still Old Fourth, you are most like Master!" Seventh Master, in the Scripture Library of the forty-seventh sect they went to, looked at Xu Qing reading intently there and praised him sincerely.

Xu Qing was neither arrogant nor impetuous.

At this moment, after hearing his master's words, he put down the jade slip in his hand, thought for a moment, and said softly.

"Master, is there any sect in Yinghuang Province that focuses on the poison path? Disciple wants to go there and learn seriously."
