Chapter 94

The last time he saw Second Uncle, he was still being chased and killed by someone in Qingmu City, and he had even taken advantage of the situation to snatch away the Blood Tai Sui that Master Mo Xingjian had just suppressed.

No, when did you come back? Zhou Qing's face was full of astonishment.

However, at this moment, Er Daye didn't even look at Zhou Qing, but instead coughed repeatedly from the dust filling the surroundings, constantly fanning the air in front of him with his hands.

Afterward, he stepped on the gravel, hands on his hips, and laughed loudly toward the sky.

"Still blocked me, just this?" Er Daye looked proud, then carved the two big characters "Just this" on the wall.

After doing all this, he headed straight for the millstone in the distance and rolled toward the tunnel.

Zhou Qing, who was originally a bit nervous and didn't know how to explain, discovered that from beginning to end, Er Daye seemed not to have discovered him.

"Look at my brain!" Zhou Qing patted his forehead.

Although the two were in the same place, they seemed to be in different spaces.

Er Daye moved away the real stone mill in the cave, but the stone mill belonging to Zhou Qing's simulation was still there.

But the two places were synchronized in real-time, just like the last time after picking the Spirit Essence Mushroom, simulating that tunnel again, the things were already gone.

"It's the middle of the night, and Er Daye actually came to the cave again. Maybe I can follow his path!"

Zhou Qing, who had reacted, felt a surge of excitement, hurriedly rolled the stone mill over, and followed Er Daye through the tunnel.

After arriving at the final destination, he saw Er Daye jump quickly into the blood river in front of him.

"Do I have to swim across?"

Just as Zhou Qing was puzzled, he saw Er Daye jump up quickly.

However, at this time, he was holding three dead crows, quickly placing them on his head and left and right shoulders.

"Come on, if you have the ability, come over!" Er Daye provoked the darkness.

But it was clear that the giant corpse-wax crow did not come out.

"Not right—"

Zhou Qing felt a chill in his heart, immediately jumped down, and learned Er Daye's appearance, placing the three crows on his head and shoulders.

Just after doing all this, he saw the giant crow that had killed him many times come out from within, but it quickly retreated again.

"It actually really works!" Seeing this, Zhou Qing's face was full of joy.

Looking at Er Daye again, he had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

And after Er Daye finished provoking, he swaggered and jumped back into the blood river, swimming toward the opposite bank.

Zhou Qing also fixed the three crows and followed behind him.

Along the way, except for the countless fishy crows in this blood river, no other danger occurred.

Until he followed Er Daye and climbed onto the shore.

"I didn't expect I would come back again, but this time this old man has made sufficient preparations and won't let you easily trap me again," Er Daye sighed with his eyes full.

Afterward, he came to the third stone coffin, exuding terrifying pressure, baring his teeth and claws, pushing it open bit by bit, and then jumping down.

Zhou Qing looked at the first stone coffin that had opened actively in his own space, hesitated for a moment, and grabbed the scroll in the green mist.

There was no other danger, and the scroll was even taken down gently.

Seeing this, the heart that Zhou Qing had been hanging finally let go.

It's a pity he couldn't see the things in the scroll. If he really wanted to take it out and know what was recorded in the scroll, only his real body could go to the real cave.

"I don't know where Er Daye went?" Zhou Qing was curious, but it was a pity that in his own space, the third stone coffin was completely closed.

A person as powerful as Er Daye needed to use all his strength to push open a crack, so he should just forget it.

Afterward, he looked up at the top of his head.

He didn't know what kind of variety this black tree, whose life was coming to an end, was?

And whose was the giant heart that was tightly wrapped by iron chains and still beating?

Pfft—

Just as Zhou Qing was puzzled, a black feather pierced through him again.

"There's actually a time limit?" Zhou Qing, who had transformed back into a red ball, cursed.

Fortunately, there was one last chance left, so he didn't dare to be careless again.

He successfully passed through the gravity zone and tunnel, learned from the previous appearance, quickly placed the three dead crows on his body, and then swam to the opposite side with all his strength.

After grabbing the scroll, he jumped down again and returned. Just as he arrived at the tunnel, that hair-raising feeling lingered in his heart again, but fortunately, it disappeared quickly.

"It was truly a close call, but this time is just right. Next time if I enter with my real body, I should be able to escape!"

Looking at the smelly crows on his shoulders, Zhou Qing gathered all his strength and threw them back into the blood river.

Then he sat there quietly waiting for Er Daye.

He didn't know how long it had passed, but Zhou Qing suddenly felt something in his heart, so he retreated.

It seemed that waiting for such a long time was not a solution. Heaven knows how long Er Daye needed; after all, he was "returning to his mother's home."

When Zhou Qing opened his eyes, it was already dawn outside.

The old hen was shaking its head and pecking at his thigh. Zhou Qing hurriedly got some spirit rice and spirit stone powder for it, and only then did he get up with satisfaction.

In one night, ninety mid-grade spirit stones were all spent inside. If Hearing San Shixiong knew about this, heaven knows how much it would hurt his heart.

Fortunately, the harvest was quite rich. At the very least, he already had full confidence in passing through the gravity zone and getting the scroll.

Now it could be considered that everything was ready, only the east wind was lacking.

Afterward, he looked at the twenty-eight mid-grade spirit stones in his storage bag and sighed softly.

The "knowledge fee" he got from the Seventh Prince was only this much left. Having gained some inspiration from Er Daye, he was thinking about quickly simulating after he turned the key next time to see what the Supreme Elder and the others were doing after they entered.

"Forget it, wait until I am sent out of the cave, then sneak in again. The Supreme Elder and the others probably have long since disappeared. Maybe they are like Er Daye, jumping into some coffin."

Before, he thought about whose corpses were buried in the coffins under the tree. Now it seemed that there was something else in there.

Afterward, Zhou Qing opened the courtyard door, stretched his muscles and bones, and prepared to tease the chicken for a while. After all, only when the old hen was in a happy mood would its egg production rate increase.

"You're awake?"

But just as he walked out of the courtyard door, a voice suddenly sounded from the corner of the wall, directly scaring Zhou Qing.

Turning his head, he saw Lu Yaoyao squatting there at some point, looking at him with resentment.

"Lu Shimei? No, why did you come to Little Spirit Peak so early in the morning?" Zhou Qing said in surprise.

Shenyue Peak is super far from Little Spirit Peak. You wouldn't have come in the middle of the night, would you?

Not right, Little Spirit Peak is under curfew at night, and going out and entering is prohibited.

Lu Yaoyao got up, patted the dust on her butt, walked over, and said: "I felt a bit lost in my heart and couldn't sleep."

"Is it because the Ninth Princess Xuan Yuan Muqian left?" Zhou Qing hesitated and probed.

Lu Yaoyao nodded gently.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing felt a chill in his heart.

Good heavens, it wouldn't really be as Hearing San Shixiong said, right? Does this girl have a problem with her sexual orientation?

You are so beautiful, it shouldn't be, right?

The next moment, Lu Yaoyao suddenly raised her head and said with anticipation: "Zhou Shixiong, let's go to the Imperial Capital for a visit sometime."

Zhou Qing chuckled.

Even if I go, I won't go with you.

You have a big problem now. If Li Daoxuan and the others find out, they will think I led you astray.

By then, it would be an unsolvable enmity.

"We'll talk about it when there's time. I have something to do, so I'll leave first!" After Zhou Qing finished speaking, he hurriedly pulled the old hen and left.

Looking at Zhou Qing's back as if he were fleeing, Lu Yaoyao lowered her head in disappointment again, not knowing what she was thinking.

After teasing for a big circle and learning that Lu Yaoyao had gone down the mountain, Zhou Qing dared to come back. Afterward, he closed the courtyard door and began to rest.

He slept comfortably until the afternoon. After getting up with a yawn, he discovered that Hearing San Shixiong had sent him a message at some point.

"Old Four, Immortal Xuanyou has come. She also brought more than three hundred top chefs from the Qingyuxian Sect. Tonight she wants to cook their sect's delicacies for us. The ingredients are all brought on the spot. Tonight we go to Shenyue Peak. I'll come to call you then!"

Seeing the message on the token, Zhou Qing felt inexplicable.

Is this because she came a few times before and felt that the food in our Taiqingmen's Jade Dining Hall wasn't very good?

However, he could just take this opportunity to taste what the delicacies of other sects were like.

Zhou Qing left his stomach empty and began to practice. But less than an hour later, Yan Xiaohu's shouting sounded outside.

After Zhou Qing packed up, he opened the courtyard door and saw Hearing San Shixiong peeing under a tree not far away at a glance.

No, how did you hold it in?

"Go, go, go, our Little Spirit Peak is relatively far, it will take a while to travel!"

Yan Xiaohu shook, then wiped his hands on his body casually and hurriedly came over to say.

Zhou Qing shook his head and had no choice but to follow him and rise on his sword...

Shenyue Peak!

When Zhou Qing and the two arrived, it was already evening. The core disciples of other peaks had long since arrived here, gathering in twos and threes, talking and laughing about something.

Not far away, several rows of fire stoves were set up. Many figures wearing chef uniforms wandered among them, and the air was filled with the fragrance of various stir-fried dishes early on.

"Wow, it seems we really have a treat this time!" Yan Xiaohu licked his lips, looking excited.

Zhou Qing followed his gaze and soon saw Immortal Xuanyou in the crowd.

The note above her head about him was still 【Taiqingmen Disciple】, and she was talking to Sect Master Cao Zhengyang and the others.

Zhou Qing couldn't help but whisper to Yan Xiaohu: "Hearing San Shixiong, are we being too big-hearted? Didn't Master say that we shouldn't trust the other sects for now? This time all the core disciples are gathered together, aren't we afraid of being wiped out in one go?"

After hearing this, Yan Xiaohu shook his head: "It shouldn't be, right? Besides, if something happened, the Sect Master and the others should have thought of it long ago. Rest assured, it's fine."

Zhou Qing nodded. After all, the Qingyuxian Sect should be a trustworthy ally of the Taiqingmen.

Afterward, he found a place to sit down.

But soon Zhou Qing discovered that Immortal Xuanyou's eyes swept toward them from time to time, seemingly probing something.

To be precise, most of her gaze stayed on those Soul Formation realm Shixiong, and she didn't even look at the women.

"Strange—"

Zhou Qing was puzzled. Maybe he was thinking too much.

Under the night, Zhou Qing sat under a tree waiting for dinner. Interestingly, the people bound by the talent skill 【Heart-Mirror Vision】 were almost all here.

Mo Xingjian, Gao Xuan, Immortal Xuanyou, Li Daoxuan, Lu Yaoyao, Shi Zhen, Yan Xiaohu.

Seven golden entries were walking around brightly.

The last one, Er Daye, was now also in the Taiqingmen, but he hadn't come out of the cave yet.

"Zhou Shixiong, you're here!"

Soon, Zhou Qing saw two golden notes coming, and it was Li Daoxuan and Lu Yaoyao.

Zhou Qing got up and nodded.

Looking at Lu Yaoyao's mental state, it seemed good. After all, she was still in a state of heartbreak this morning.

"Just arrived!" Zhou Qing said.

Li Daoxuan still pulled a face, but still said reluctantly: "The Master wants you to go over."

"The Sect Master is calling me?" Zhou Qing was stunned.

Lu Yaoyao hurriedly leaned over and whispered: "Regarding you recognizing the items brought by the Seventh Prince, Sister Xuanyou is also very curious, so she wants you to go over and talk about it."

Zhou Qing pondered.

This is easy to explain, nothing more than seeing it by accident when I was young. Mainly, is it a bit inappropriate for you to call her Sister Xuanyou?

For no reason, she is a generation higher than all of us!

…………

"Greetings to all Shibo, Shishu, and greetings to Sect Master Xuanyou!"

Arriving in front of the peak masters, Zhou Qing bowed respectfully.

At this time, Mo Xingjian seemed to be in a very good mood, and his eyes looking at Zhou Qing were full of pride.

Cao Zhengyang said: "Zhou Qing, Fellow Daoist Xuanyou wants to ask you something. Just tell the truth."

Zhou Qing nodded, then looked at Immortal Xuanyou.

Xuanyou smiled: "I heard that the Seventh Prince of the Sacred Martial Dynasty brought three items, and you recognized them one by one?"

Zhou Qing said: "Replying to the Immortal, it was just a coincidence. When I was wandering outside as a child, I accidentally saw the relevant picture book on a street stall. It can be considered a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse. And the junior doesn't know if it's true or false. Anyway, since he said it's right, it's right."

"So that's how it is. I heard your big Shixiong also had a fight with him, barely a draw. By the way, where is your big Shixiong?" Xuanyou asked again.

Zhou Qing subconsciously looked at Mo Xingjian, and Mo Xingjian nodded slightly.

Zhou Qing said: "He went out to comprehend his own realm of understanding."

"Amazing, at such a young age, he is already about to step into the Divine Transformation realm. It seems that in the future Soul Severance realm, there will definitely be a place for him!" Immortal Xuanyou praised.

Mo Xingjian felt proud after hearing this.

Zhou Qing also smiled: "Borrowing your auspicious words, Senior."

Afterward, the few chatted with Zhou Qing for two sentences, then let him wait on the side until dinner started.

Zhou Qing retreated.

Not long after, the banquet began, and everyone started eating with laughter, and fine wine was served.

It must be said that the delicacies of this Qingyuxian Sect were really good. Zhou Qing had a great feast.

"Hearing San Shixiong, slow down, pay attention to your image!"

Except for Mo Xingjian, only the two of them came to Little Spirit Peak, and they sat together.

Seeing Yan Xiaohu smacking his lips, Zhou Qing hurriedly reminded him in a low voice.

Yan Xiaohu coughed dryly and began to become refined.

"Don't you have a lot of gossip? What does this Immortal Xuanyou want to do by suddenly doing this?" Zhou Qing asked in a low voice.

Yan Xiaohu wiped the grease from his mouth, leaned over quietly, and said: "She should want to form an alliance. I don't know the specifics either."

"Even if it's an alliance, it should be done quietly in private. This is too much of a fanfare," Zhou Qing was puzzled.

Yan Xiaohu shook his head.

How could they guess the thoughts of big shots?

Just eat well!

During this period, Shi Zhen also came to toast, thanking Zhou Qing for saving face for the Taiqingmen this time, and said that she might go into seclusion for a period of time next.

Zhou Qing and Yan Xiaohu got up immediately, wishing her an early entry into the Soul Formation realm.

What Zhou Qing didn't expect was that several other core disciples came to toast Zhou Qing, which made him feel a bit flattered.

Thinking about it, it was all because of those three items of the Seventh Prince.

Yan Xiaohu on the side saw this and suddenly became a bit unhappy.

Why does it feel like Old Four is getting further and further away from him?

Just like this, everyone played until late at night before leaving one after another.

When he returned to his residence, Zhou Qing suddenly felt something was wrong, then turned to look at the big tree not far away.

Because above its head, the note 【Little doll who has the style of this old man back in the day】 was floating brightly.

Zhou Qing was full of shock.

No, is this illusion technique so awesome? Even plants can do it?

Wait, this is not the point. The point is, when did Er Daye come out of the cave again?

Is he coming and going so freely?

And he transformed into this, it was clearly waiting for him at the door on purpose.

Zhou Qing suddenly remembered that when Er Daye left last time, he said that if he could recognize him next time they met, he would give him another fortune.

Thinking of this, Zhou Qing smiled immediately.

Afterward, he stepped forward and bowed to the big tree: "Junior Zhou Qing, greetings to Er Daye!"

After bowing, the big tree remained unmoved.

Zhou Qing waited quietly like this. After a full half-stick of incense time, Zhou Qing had no choice but to get up with a smile and say: "Senior, this tree has been in front of my door for many years, and my Hearing San Shixiong often comes here to pee."

"Every time I go out or come home, I can always smell a smell of urine. I originally thought about cutting it down in two days, but today it suddenly has no smell."

"Moreover, it is late at night, and there are cool breezes blowing all around. Only this tree doesn't move a single leaf, which seems too fake."

"And the junior's nose is a bit sensitive. After meeting a few times, I can smell the scent on Senior from far away."

Just as Zhou Qing finished speaking, the big tree that was originally motionless suddenly rustled.

Immediately after, he saw Er Daye jump out from inside with a look of disgust, cursing in his mouth.

"I was wondering where such a big smell of urine came from. It turns out it was done by that bastard kid, with a thief's eyebrows and rat's eyes, truly having no quality at all!"

Seeing this, Zhou Qing couldn't help but smile.

It turns out he didn't transform, he was just hiding inside.

But having said that, you have quality, digging such a long tunnel in the cave, and then leaving a message to mock?

"Greetings to Senior!" Zhou Qing bowed again.

Er Daye looked at Zhou Qing with appreciation.

Meticulous, calm in the face of change, I underestimated you, little doll.

"Not seen for a while, you actually broke through to the early Golden Core realm, and you know how to hide your cultivation with the 'Turtle Breathing Art', not bad, not bad!" Er Daye praised.

Zhou Qing's expression changed slightly, but he didn't feel surprised.

He even guessed that Er Daye had already crossed the Divine Transformation realm and reached the Soul Severance realm.

You must know that the Sacred Martial Dynasty, as a Level 4 cultivation nation, encompasses boundless territories and sects, but there are only a dozen or so Soul Severance realm experts in total.

"This is thanks to the Heavenly Dao Qi gifted by Senior, allowing the junior to be reborn!" Zhou Qing was grateful from the bottom of his heart.

Er Daye said: "Don't, that Yin and Yang Qi only gives you a 40% chance. When you break through to the Soul Formation realm, you have a chance to condense the number one Three-Flower Gathering at the Top. At most, your combat power will be enhanced. What does it have to do with talent? It seems you have been hiding your clumsiness all along."

Seeing that Er Daye didn't look like he was joking, Zhou Qing knew that Er Daye really didn't know that the wisp of Heavenly Dao Qi he gave him had already mutated.

Otherwise, how could he have comprehended the "Green Wood Spirit Shield," "Silver Dragon Hand," "Silver Dragon Step," and even the two forms of the "Azure Thunder Sword Art" in such a short time?

Before Zhou Qing could say anything, Er Daye suddenly leaned over and asked curiously: "Little doll, you said you remembered the smell on this old man? Then tell me, what does this old man smell like now?"

Zhou Qing originally wanted to say two flattering words, but thought about it and decided to forget it. It was okay to fool others, but fooling Er Daye was like showing off in front of an expert.

The reason he took the initiative to recognize him this time was to dispel the other party's concerns and confirm his ability to have a sensitive nose.

Otherwise, if he were full of curiosity and suddenly performed a soul search, wouldn't everything be over!

Zhou Qing pretended to smell it and said with some doubt: "Besides a smell of an old man, there is also a fishy smell, as if some corpse died, especially on Senior's shoulder, the smell is even stronger."

As soon as these words came out, Er Daye was obviously shocked.

Afterward, he looked at Zhou Qing's nose with surprise and exclaimed: "So sensitive? You can even smell this? How did you grow this nose?"

Zhou Qing pretended to be puzzled and said: "Senior, did you carry a corpse?"

Er Daye smiled, then took out a black jar and said: "Since your nose is so sensitive, help this old man smell it. What is inside?"

Looking at the jar Er Daye suddenly took out, Zhou Qing felt lucky. Today's 【Daily Identification】 hadn't been used yet.

Zhou Qing immediately performed the identification.

【Human Bone Jar: This is a jar crafted from the bones and flesh of a Soul Severance realm expert, possessing unimaginable power. Countless years ago, a Soul Severance realm Meat-Evil Toad was sealed inside, but unfortunately, it has long since turned into dry bones.】

Seeing the feedback information, Zhou Qing showed shock.

As expected of Er Daye, the things he took out casually involved the ethereal Soul Severance realm.

Could it be that this thing was what he got from the cave this time?

What kind of ghost is this Meat-Evil Toad?

It was actually a Soul Severance realm expert when it was alive!

"Why, can't you smell it?" Er Daye asked with a smile.

Zhou Qing smiled awkwardly and said: "Wait a moment, wait a moment, almost there!"

Who can smell this thing you took out? It's simply not something I can come into contact with at my level, okay.

But in order to confirm his nose's ability and completely remove Er Daye's future worries about searching his soul out of curiosity, Zhou Qing pretended to lean in and smell hard again.

Afterward, he showed contemplation, and after a good while, he said: "It seems I smell a toad."

Hearing Zhou Qing's words, Er Daye's pupils shrank, and then he laughed loudly.

"Not bad, not bad, truly not bad. This old man has never seen anyone with such a sensitive nose. Little fellow, make good use of your innate talent. It will definitely be of great use to your future cultivation!"

Er Daye looked very happy. After putting away the jar, he patted Zhou Qing on the shoulder and said.

【Heart-Mirror Point +9】

Soon, the note 【Little doll who has the style of this old man back in the day】 above Er Daye's head changed into 【Little doll with innate talent】 in an instant.

Zhou Qing retreated and bowed: "Thank you for your instruction, Senior!"
