Chapter 524

At this time, Hong Qi was truly somewhat afraid.

Guo Jia's Geng Metal Sword Formation was truly too powerful; these sword qi were like endless.

Moreover, each sword qi was equivalent to an attack of the Innate Third Heaven.

He had lived for so many years and had never heard of such a formation.

Huang Yaoshi of the Five Absolutes also knew some formations, but compared to Guo Jia's formation, they couldn't even be called formations.

After resisting another wave of sword qi, Hong Qi hurriedly shouted to Guo Jia:

"Lord Guo, please show mercy, this old beggar is willing to surrender to the court."

If he continued to be stubborn, with two more waves of such sword qi attacks, he would have to explain his life here.

There was no need to throw away his life in vain for this little matter.

He originally thought that relying on his Innate Third Heaven strength, it would be no problem to escape if he couldn't beat them.

He didn't expect that Guo Jia's methods were so strange, and this formation refreshed his understanding.

Perhaps after joining the Great Han Empire, he could still get unexpected benefits.

Moreover, the most important point was that the Great Han was also a Han country; joining the Great Han, no one could say anything.

At this time, Guo Jia heard Hong Qi's words, cast a spell in his hand, and the Geng Metal Sword Formation slowly dissipated.

The figures of the three appeared in Ezhou City again.

"Old senior Hong, wouldn't it have been better to do this earlier!"

Guo Jia withdrew the grand formation and said to the somewhat disheveled Hong Qi before him.

Hearing this, Hong Qi smiled bitterly and didn't answer.

"Damn it, if I could beat you, would I be able to suffer like this!"

However, he didn't dare to say this out loud, just silently complaining in his heart.

"This is not a place to talk, let's go back to the City Lord's Mansion first."

"Also, these are the 'Rejuvenation Pill' and 'Qi-Returning Pill', which can restore your injuries and true qi; you should take them first."

Guo Jia said to Hong Qi, and with a wave of his hand, two pills appeared before Hong Qi.

Moreover, these pills also emitted a fresh medicinal fragrance, looking extraordinary.

Hong Qi looked at Guo Jia, raised his hand to pick up the two pills, and swallowed them.

He wasn't afraid that these were poisonous pills; with the strength shown by Guo Jia and Li Mochou, they could kill him more than enough, so there was no need to go to such trouble.

The pills melted upon entering his mouth; in an instant, a huge medicinal power spread in his body, repairing his injured parts.

And after taking the Qi-Returning Pill, it instantly turned into a wisp of pure spiritual power, rapidly replenishing the true qi consumed in his dantian.

In just an instant, the true qi consumed in his dantian recovered by eighty percent.

After Hong Qi raised his eyes, he looked at Guo Jia with fiery eyes.

These are good things!

If he were to fight others in the future, with these two types of pills, he wouldn't be afraid of not having enough true qi.

Seeing Hong Qi's gaze, Guo Jia's mouth raised slightly.

"Little guy, I couldn't handle you, but these are just two simple pills, and you have this look of never having seen the world!"

For a time, Guo Jia was also secretly refreshed in his heart.

Sizing up Hong Qi, Guo Jia said to him with a solemn expression:

"Rest assured, as long as you work properly for my Great Han Empire in the future, martial arts techniques, martial arts skills, and various cultivation resources, all of these will be available."

Hearing this, Hong Qi was even more shocked in his heart.

It seems that the strength of this Great Han Empire far exceeds his expectations.

"Please rest assured, Lord Guo, since I, this old beggar, have joined the Great Han, then from now on I am a person of the Great Han Empire."

"This old beggar has nothing else, but at least I know the two words 'loyalty and righteousness'."

Hong Qi heard Guo Jia's words and guaranteed with a solemn expression.

Seeing this, Guo Jia also nodded with satisfaction.

Subsequently, the three returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

"Old senior Hong, I can only give you the position of Fourth-Rank Tribute in the Tribute Hall here; if you want to rise further, you need to look at your own ability."

"Moreover, all officials and martial generals of my Great Han Empire cultivate the 'Heaven and Earth Creation Martial Canon', and civil officials cultivate the 'Haoran Righteous Qi Art'."

"These two techniques were specially bestowed by His Majesty to the civil and martial officials of my Great Han court; both techniques are currently Profound Grade Mid Quality."

"Also, this is the identity jade token dedicated to my Great Han Empire; you should drip blood to recognize it as master first."

"Afterward, I will introduce the functions of the identity jade token to you in detail."

Guo Jia handed the identity jade token to Hong Qi.

Hong Qi endured the shock in his heart, and according to what Guo Jia said, forced out a drop of fresh blood and dripped it onto the identity jade token.

As Hong Qi's blood dripped on it, the fresh blood was instantly absorbed.

And the identity jade token also changed from its original white color to the blue color representing the Fourth-Rank official grade.

Finally, it disappeared into Hong Qi's soul sea.

"The identity jade token has successfully recognized you as master; as long as you move your mind, you can use it freely."

"Moreover, identity jade tokens can also communicate with each other."

"Inside, there is also the point exchange mall established by His Majesty, but currently the point mall of this world has not been connected to the Great Han Main Realm, so it cannot be used for now."

"However, this 'Heaven and Earth Creation Martial Canon' happens to be recorded in the identity jade token, and I have already granted you the permission to learn it."

"Wait a moment, you should go and cultivate first, striving to convert all your own true qi; in this way, I think your strength will be able to go a step further."

At this time, Hong Qi's whole head was dizzy.

The scene that happened before his eyes was truly too fantastical.

Are these things really what a mortal can control?

Even immortal means are nothing more than this.

"Senior Hong, Senior Hong."

At this time, seeing Hong Qi not coming back to his senses for a long time, Li Mochou on the side couldn't stand it anymore.

Immediately, she reminded him.

"Oh, oh!"

"I have made you two laugh; this old beggar was momentarily lost!"

Hearing Li Mochou's voice, Hong Qi came back to his senses.

He said somewhat embarrassedly to the two.

"It doesn't matter, old senior Hong, you should go into closed-seclusion quickly; after you come out of seclusion, I have another matter for you to handle."

Guo Jia waved his hand at Hong Qi and said in a deep voice.

"Lord Guo, you should still say the matter first; converting the technique is not urgent."

Hong Qi heard this and declined Guo Jia's kindness.

For him, with his current Innate Third Heaven strength, as long as it wasn't the Great Han people attacking him, his own safety would be no problem.

Thinking of Hong Qi's strength, Guo Jia also understood.

Immediately, he said to him:

"Since that is the case, then I will follow your words."

"I intend to have you gather all the forces and powerhouses in the Jianghu to the Great Han Empire."

"For this matter, I will have Tribute Li cooperate with you."

"Moreover, for your disciple, the couple Guo Jing and Huang Rong, I also hope you can persuade them to join the Great Han Empire."

"This Southern Song court has already rotted to the core."

"There is no need to guard it to the death anymore."

"Moreover, everyone is a descendant of Yan and Huang, a son of the Han family; joining my Great Han Empire is the correct choice."
