Turned a corner while ascending

But Jin only felt a splitting headache, remembering that he was trapped in the same crystal cage with the trumpet Bai Zhizhuo, and all the strange dreams before that had long been forgotten.

Qu Qing said that his soul was depleted and needed to rest, and that Bai Zhizhuo's soul was safe and sound except for the scarred skin injury and the injury to his dantian. The conclusion was that both of them had to rest well.

Jin, however, was obedient and rested while guarding Bai Zhizhuo, and it took him five days to wake him up, and he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

For the past five days, they were left in a corner of this big hall full of bookshelves. There were tall wooden bookshelves on the front, back, left, and right sides. Except for the Lingmi delicacies that appeared on time, they didn't even have a bed.

And that Qu Qing naturally never appeared again.

After Bai Zhizhuo woke up, Jin roughly talked about the current situation of the two of them. In fact, there was nothing to talk about. Apart from knowing that the owner of the place was called Qu Qing, Qu Qing's identity, the location of this place, etc. had nothing to do with it. Know.

He couldn't even check the books on the shelf next to him.

Helpless, the two put aside their distracting thoughts and went to meditate together to heal their injuries.

two months later.

With the help of the root system of the Sunburnt Spirit Wood, Jin Que's damage to his soul was finally recovered.

Bai Zhizhuo recovered earlier, taking advantage of the abundance of spiritual energy here, he retreated for a while, but regrettably found that it was still too early to break through to the fourth rank.

Although he almost used up Jin Que's soul as nourishment, Bai Zhizhuo finally recollected the strength of the Nascent Soul Realm. For this, he was more eager to break through, but also had more love for Jin Que. A sense of guilt and gratitude.

However, he hid this emotion so deeply that Jin didn't notice it at all.

At this time, two and a half months had passed since the two of them left Kunyuan Sword Gate for Xiangrui Auction House.In other words, there is still half a month left before the three-month agreement on Bai Zhizhuo.

This time he failed to get the Purple Pattern Pill, the Ba Xian Banquet was the only chance, Bai Zhizhuo couldn’t miss it no matter what, besides, if he didn’t attend the challenge in the ring, it would be a tacit admission of defeat, he really didn’t care much about winning or losing, It's a big deal to call back later, but he doesn't want to miss a perfect opportunity to fight against his peers.

Bai Zhizhuo had already made up his mind, this time he had to be serious and fight like a sword repairer!

So after the two recovered, they began to think about how to get out.

The two people's current location seems to be the center of this bookstore, and there are no walls on all sides, so they plan to start from the place where they stayed, and walk along a straight line. They are going to find the wall, and then follow the wall find the door.

But the strange thing is, the two of them went from walking slowly, to walking quickly, to running, and finally even sacrificed the magic weapon directly, and Bai Zhizhuo walked with Yujian for three days in a row!The scenery that can be seen is not only the bookshelf, but also the bookshelf, except for the ground where the feet are standing. There is no roof, no walls, no walls, and naturally it is impossible to find the door.

On the contrary, the Lingmi and Xianyao that they had been eating all the time, showed up beside them on time in different ways every day, never missing a single minute!

So three days later, Bai Zhizhuo, who couldn't bear it anymore, waved his sleeves and released a colorful ball.

Xiao Jiu, a spirit pet of the level of a divine beast, has been sleeping soundly in the spirit beast pouch for the past two and a half months, practicing while sleeping, even Bai Zhizhuo didn't let it out when it was most dangerous.

In fact, it's useless to come out. This spirit beast has only grown to the second rank now, and it's still a force-feeding practice, which is difficult to digest, so most of the time it actually sleeps.

If he was released, he accidentally got caught in Xue Ying's two claws and died, and Bai Zhizhuo, who signed a life-sharing contract with it, would also end his life.

So it still has to be well protected.

Now Xiaojiu's head has grown a lot, her two paws stand up straight and her neck is held high, she is taller than Jin Que, and she has just reached the age of moulting, and the down feathers on her chest have fallen off a lot, revealing pieces of inner skin , Look, it's even uglier.

Bai Zhizhuo ordered Xiao Jiu to fly to the right, but he and Jin changed directions and walked to the left.

Xiaojiu is of the wind and thunder attribute, and she is very fast. After receiving the order, she shook her short short wings vigorously, and disappeared after stepping on the breeze.

Bai Zhizhuo continued to bring Jin Que Yujian.

A quarter of an hour later.

Bai Zhizhuo looked at Xiao Jiu who was bumping into him head-on, his face turned dark.

Jin looked left and right, raised his head without hope, and shouted: "Qu Qing! What the hell kind of place is this! Come out! Let us out!"

Almost at the moment when his voice fell, a voice answered him: "Hey, you two little guys are all ready now? Not bad, not bad, you are still alive and well."

Then he opened and closed his eyes, and the scene in front of him suddenly changed. Finally, it was no longer an endless huge bookshelf, but a small study room.

The study room is full of hanging and stacked things, and the floor is also full of scrolls and books, almost without a place to stay.

And Qu Qing raised his head from an ancient book that was two circles bigger than his head. Seeing the two of them coming, with a wave of his hand, the scrolls all over the floor disappeared, and two chairs appeared on the spot. Qu Qing said: " sit down."

"What the hell is this place?" Jin sat down and asked bluntly.

Qu Qing blinked: "Of course it's my study. Who is your master, Fan Zhen? Wen Chang? Wen Wan? Or Fan He?"

Jin tilted his head to look at him, and felt that his attitude of calling out the sect master's name lightly was a bit wrong, and while desperately recalling the name "Qu Qing" in his head, he said cautiously: "Bai Zhizhuo and I They are all disciples of the outer sect and have not apprenticed to their masters."

"Outer disciples?" Qu Qing thought for a while, then suddenly said, "Oh, I know why I sent you here."

He looked around and asked, "Do you have a good relationship?"

But Jin looked at Bai Zhizhuo, and Bai Zhizhuo said reservedly: "The relationship is extraordinary, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are brothers."

Jin nodded in satisfaction, his eyes sparkling.

Qu Qing looked at the two of them again, and pointed at Bai Zhizhuo: "You are a sword cultivator, so it is understandable to join Kunyuan Sword Sect. You are a Dharma cultivator, with a pure glass body, and unique aptitude. Dharma, unlike someone from a small family, why did you come here to be a small outer disciple?"

However, Jin had an urge to tell everything out of thin air, and said almost without thinking: "The two of us have caused some trouble outside, so naturally we have to find the best and strongest sect to avoid it."

Qu Qing nodded, and asked again: "Then why didn't you choose Tianxuanzong, Bankun Palace, or Zhaoxinzong?"

Jin Que: "The Tianxuan Sect also had some conflicts with us, so it's not a good choice. The Bankun Palace has strict rules, and it is difficult to get in and out. The Zhaoxin Sect is our own mountain gate, but unfortunately I don't like it."

Qu Qing smiled meaningfully, and said in a drawn-out voice: "Oh—so, first, please ask little friend Jin Que to avoid it, I want to ask Bai Zhizhuo alone."

"What?" Jin was quick-witted and wanted to tug on Bai Zhizhuo's sleeve, but at this moment, there was no such thing as Qingbai Zhizhuo!He was in the boundless sea of ​​bookshelves again!

And Bai Zhizhuo, who stayed in the study, was facing a new round of torture.

Qu Qing looked at the huge Xiao Jiu who was dozing on one side, and asked with interest, "Is this your contracted spirit beast?"

Bai Zhizhuo: "Yes."

Qu Qing: "This spirit beast is very rare, do you know its origin?"

Bai Zhizhuo thought for a while, and replied: "It comes from the roasted spiritual wood in the northern wilderness."

Qu Qing shook his head and began to teach him: "That's not all. The Sunburnt Spirit Tree in the Northern Wilderness Secret Realm was planted by the previous head of Tianxuan Sect 5 years ago to protect Tianxuan The only descendant of Jiufeng, this spirit beast is the first mount in captivity of the God Clan in charge of Heaven's Punishment in the Great Reincarnation. Its ancestor is also the founder of the Tianxuan Sect, but later almost the entire clan fell to the hands of the ancient beast clan. I thought that this last one would definitely not survive, but I never thought that there would be a day in this life where I could see a legend."

Qu Qing stared at Xiao Jiu with hot eyes for a long time, staring at it so that he fell asleep, and the sparse feathers on his neck exploded, so he gave up, and asked Bai Zhizhuo: "What are you talking about?" I know."

Bai Zhizhuo shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Qu Qing said regretfully and proudly, like an old master who has been preaching, "I can talk to you in detail later, but now we have to talk about something else."

Qu Qing suddenly turned serious, looked into Bai Zhizhuo's eyes, and asked slowly: "Tell me, you entered my Kunyuan Sword Sect to do something harmful to the sect?"

Bai Zhizhuo said without hesitation: "It's just a coincidence, there is absolutely no disadvantageous purpose."

Qu Qing: "The Yuji Sword Code and Kunyuan Sword Formation you have learned were stolen from the sect?"

Bai Zhizhuo: "Not really."

Qu Qing: "Where did you learn from?"

Bai Zhizhuo opened his mouth, but couldn't make any sound, a golden light flashed in his eyes, he looked at Qu Qing suspiciously.

Qu Qing had no choice but to quickly change the question: "Who did you learn from?"

Bai Zhizhuo was still unable to speak, Qu Qing was about to die from a headache, why both of them are so difficult to deal with, is this still a third-rank kid?Has the old man not been out of the mountain for a long time, and his cultivation has regressed?This retreat is a bit powerful.

So he had to change the subject again: "What is Jianxin?"

Bai Zhizhuo's eyes lit up, and he said slowly: "Bai regards loneliness as the heart of the sword."

Qu Qing smiled when he heard the words, and asked again: "What is loneliness?"

Bai Zhizhuo: "I am alone in this world. There are no other people in the world. I have no relatives to rely on, and I have no way to return home. I am lonely."

Qu Qing hehe said: "Interesting, you have a good relationship with that kid just now, can't he be your reliance?"

Bai Zhizhuo was taken aback when he heard the words, and frowned in confusion.

Qu Qing hurriedly said: "Hey, don't even think about it, you little guy is also interesting, your sword heart is wobbly, but you can cultivate a powerful sword array, when you figure it out, maybe you can settle down with me Realized the sword intent, this is not a good place."

He paused for a while, and asked again: "Do you have loyalty and loyalty in your heart?"

Bai Zhizhuo: "Be loyal to the sword, be sincere to others, righteousness is the way, sincerity is the raft, and it is worth our generation's desperate protection to overcome the sea of ​​​​longevity."

Qu Qing nodded in satisfaction, and stopped asking him any more questions. He slammed the table, took Jin Que in with a wave of his hand, and said with a smile, "I've finished asking my questions. They're all good boys, but they don't know. How much do you know about the first and second great reincarnations?"

"What?" Jin's puffy cheeks were flattened by this question, and he was extremely puzzled: "Isn't that a long time ago, why do you want to know?"

Qu Qing disapproved and said: "That's not what you said. If you don't know the origin of this world, why there is heaven, why there is heaven punishment, how can you be clear about your mind and cultivate the Dao? Don't you want to know this Where did the Three Thousand Ways come from, and the God Race and the Ancient Beast Race are as powerful as a pair, and why did they withdraw from the stage of history?"

Jin and Bai Zhizhuo shook their heads at the same time, but Jin said: "The sky requires the reincarnation of life and death, and the ebb and flow of tides are all definite numbers. I don't think there is any point in studying these."

Qu Qing glanced at him, and snorted: "Then let me tell you again, you are actually not human. Now, do you think it makes sense?"

"What?" Jin was stunned, and then said, "Are you kidding, should we be sent out? Bai Zhizhuo has half a month to go to the ring to compete, so don't delay!"
