Chapter 501 Nine Sun Alliance
Two hours later.
Zhou Qing had already moved away from the small valley, and within the past two hours he had encountered the three-color ruin spirit again.
There is no doubt that he easily captured it with the help of Kun's clone.
I can't beat the four-color one. Is it possible that I can't beat you with the three-color one?
These two hours of running around, coupled with the manipulation of formations and the battle with the four-color ruin spirit, made Zhou Qing very exhausted.
This is true whether it is soul power or true energy.
So after looking at the map and confirming that there were no particularly dangerous areas around him, Zhou Qing stopped and took a short rest to restore his condition.
During this period, Zhou Qing has been paying attention to the Dragon of Underworld.
Two hours have passed, and the Dragon of Underworld has not returned yet!
No matter where this artifact entered the underworld, when it returned to the world, it would definitely come to Zhou Qing.
So Zhou Qing is not afraid that the Dragon of the Underworld will run into the small valley just now.
Not returning for two hours only proves one thing.
That four-color ruin spirit... is really capable of resisting.
However, it is good to be able to resist. The longer it persists in the underworld, the happier Zhou Qing will be.
Zhou Qing said to himself: "I don't know how many drops of Huangquan liquid this four-color ruin spirit can bring me."
It must be a big surprise for him.
Using the Dragon of the Underworld to deal with the four-color ruin spirits was a method that Zhou Qing came up with during his previous escape.
Because of the characteristics of the Xu Ling, he knew that he would never be able to kill the four-color Xu Ling here.
Zhou Qing was really unwilling to kill this four-color ruin spirit.
So he thought of the Dragon of Underworld.
He can't kill the four-color Xu Ling, but the environment of Huangquan certainly can.
Then he came up with this idea.
The only difficulty in implementing this method is that he is not sure whether this four-color ruin spirit has developed human-like wisdom.
He learned from the Jiuyang Encyclopedia that it is possible for four-color ruin spirits to give birth to spiritual wisdom, but this is not absolute.
Some may be psychic, some may not.
The five-color ruin spirits are definitely psychic and are even far smarter than normal people.
The prerequisite for sending the four-color ruin spirit into the Underworld is that it does not have psychic powers and will follow him into the Dragon of the Underworld as Zhou Qing imagined.
As long as you enter, the Xu Ling will not be able to decide what happens next. He will immediately let the Dragon of the Underworld enter the Underworld.
When the time comes, Zhou Qing doesn’t care whether the four-color ruin spirit can forcefully break out of the Dragon of Underworld.
If it cannot forcefully break out, it will endure the erosion of the underworld and slowly die.
If you can forcefully rush out, the four-color ruin spirit will break away from the protection of the dragon of the underworld and directly contact the environment of the underworld.
You will die faster.
Without relying on the Dragon of Underworld, is it possible that a newly transformed four-color Ruins spirit can break the barrier between Underworld and the human world on its own and return to Jiuyang Ruins?
This is simply impossible.
So as long as it enters the underworld, it will die anyway, and there will be no second ending.
And so far, the Dragon of Underworld has not returned, which shows that even the four-color Ruins Spirit does not have the power to break the Dragon of Underworld and come out without Zhou Qing's consent.
The formation of three spirits trapping the Xu Ling is actually a test to see if it is psychic.
The result made Zhou Qing very satisfied. This may be because this four-color ruin spirit has just transformed and does not have human-like wisdom.
In this way, it will instinctively chase Zhou Qing. Wherever Zhou Qing goes, it will go.
The plan went quite smoothly.
As for another possibility, that is, the possibility that this ruin spirit has channeled spirits, Zhou Qing actually considered it.
Once this result is found out, the trip to Huangquan will naturally be canceled immediately.
No normal person can rashly get into someone else's magic weapon with unknown effects.
When the time comes, he will immediately put away the Three Spirit Formation, and then let Kun's clone use all his ability to escape and run away.
It's the kind of person who squeezes his own potential to the death, even hurting his origin and severely damaging his vitality.
In such an extreme way, I kept using Dunkong to run outside Jiuyang Ruins to see if I could escape.
As for the damage caused to Kun's clone, we can only consider how to make up for it later.
Kun’s clone will disappear at the end of this month anyway.
Fortunately, it did not reach that point, and the Huangquan travel plan was implemented smoothly.
Zhou Qing quietly restored her condition, taking some treasures without hesitation, and they continued to work in her body.
After the recovery was completed, Zhou Qing continued on the road and rushed to the edge of Qingyang Ruins.
Until a certain moment, a strange fluctuation flashed in front of him, and then the Dragon of Underworld appeared directly out of thin air.
Back!
Zhou Qing was slightly happy, but after seeing the appearance of the Dragon of Underworld, he was deceived.
Now there is no trace of the dragon. It is just a huge lump of dim yellow frost.
Zhou Qing was stunned. If he hadn't refined the Dragon of Underworld and that kind of connection would be correct, then he really couldn't believe that the big lump of frost in front of him was the Dragon of Underworld.
How much Huangquan liquid has been brought back!
Zhou Qing quickly took out a jade bottle and placed it under the Dragon of the Underworld. With a slight push, the ice and frost turned into liquid and dripped into the bottle drop by drop.
This is one of the things he got from opening the treasure chest last month. It is a rather peculiar space magic weapon. The level is not high. It was something that was opened from a silver treasure chest.
There is a lot of space inside, but there is a slight restriction. The size of the items cannot exceed the size of the bottle mouth, and it cannot shrink like the space bag.
So basically it can only be used to hold some spiritual liquid and so on, which happens to be useful at this time.
This kind of magic weapon can only be said to be a gadget, but gadgets also have their own uses.
One drop, two drops...
One hundred drops, five hundred drops...
A thousand drops...
Zhou Qing silently counted the Huangquan liquid, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.
Okay, okay!
When all the ice and frost on the Dragon of the Underworld turned into the underworld liquid and there was not a drop left, Zhou Qing shook the jade bottle in his hand, feeling satisfied.
This time, the Dragon of Underworld brought back a total of 4,956 drops of Underworld Liquid!
Nearly five thousand drops, such a harvest is simply astonishing.
Compared with the amount of Huangquan Liquid that Zhou Qing had before, this wave made him suddenly rich.
Zhou Qing was very happy and carefully collected the nearly five thousand drops of yellow spring liquid.
Who would have thought that a day-traveling monk would be able to bring back so much underworld liquid at once.
No one would believe it, it’s simply ridiculous.
But it’s okay if you don’t believe it. Zhou Qing hopes that no one will believe this kind of thing, so that he can make a fortune silently.
Then Zhou Qing checked the situation inside the Dragon of Underworld and found that the four-color Ruins Spirit was still there, so he transferred it out.
But something unexpected happened. As soon as the four-color ruin spirit appeared outside, it collapsed and was completely wiped out.
"..."
Obviously, it has reached its limit in the underworld, and now it can no longer bear such a slight movement.
Zhou Qing sighed, good brother, I will remember you.
These nearly five thousand drops of Huangquan liquid also belong to you. Since you can't use them, I will make full use of them in the future.
We will definitely live up to your expectations!
Receiving the Dragon of the Underworld, Zhou Qing continued on his way while thinking about his harvest.
“A newly transformed four-color Ruins Spirit can bring me nearly five thousand drops of Huangquan liquid. I wonder how far this efficiency is compared to the cultivation of a Huangquan monk in one session?”
"Xu Ling is special. If you use the soul of a True Blood Realm warrior, how much underworld liquid can you get? How much Yin Shen can you get if you use the Yin God cultivator?"
"Huh? Again?"< br>
While Zhou Qing was thinking, another hundred drops of Huangquan liquid appeared. Uh, no, it was a two-color Xu Ling that jumped out.
I just got nearly 5,000 drops of Yellow Spring Liquid, and now I feel nothing when looking at this two-color Xu Ling.
Having seen the big guys, I can no longer adapt to the small toothpicks.
There is no going back.
But after all, it was a free gift, so Zhou Qing directly asked the Kun clone to suppress the two-color ruin spirit.
I run away in embarrassment in front of four colors, and punch hard in front of two colors!
Although Zhou Qing now has a way to deal with the four-color Xu Ling, he has no idea of staying to trap the Xu Ling.
I often walk by the river, and my shoes don’t get wet.
The last four-color ruin spirit was not psychic and could be eliminated with such a simple method, but what if another psychic ruin spirit was attracted later?
Then it’s over.
It is the right way to accept things when they are good. There is no need to be greedy.
Zhou Qing has always believed that no treasure is as precious as his own life.
I have a golden finger and I can get anything. Why are I risking my life now?
After experiencing food snatched from the mouths of the deities and being chased by the four-colored ruin spirits, the journey out this time was relatively peaceful, and no more thrilling things were encountered.
At dawn, Zhou Qing arrived at the edge of Qingyang Ruins, and then began to cross in the direction of Baiyang Ruins.
On the way out, he also sent those he caught to the underworld one after another, and harvested a lot of underworld liquid. Then he discovered that the two-color Xu Ling could bring back about a hundred drops of Huangquan Liquid, and a maximum of two hundred drops.
The three-color Xu Ling has increased significantly. At least it can bring back about 500 drops, and more, such as the kind of Xu Ling whose three colors are close to a balance, can even bring back 500 drops. Come back nearly a thousand drops!
It is also a very exaggerated number.
But no matter how exaggerated it is, it is not as exaggerated as that of the four-color ruin spirit. It has just completed the four-color transformation, and the amount of underworld liquid it brought back was almost five times that of the balanced three-color.
It can be seen how big the gap is between the three-color Xu Ling and the four-color Xu Ling.
This is just a gap in resisting the erosion of the underworld environment. If it were an actual battle, let alone five three-color ruin spirits, even if the three-color ruin spirits were multiplied several times, it would not be a four-color ruins. Spirit's opponent.
Just like the difference between Xian Sheng Marrow Cleansing and Yin Shen True Blood.
The natural moat is worthy of its name.
Compared with the Xu Ling, the souls of the five-man team that Zhou Qing killed, as well as the underworld liquid brought back by Tiancheng Ghost King and others, are very rare.
It’s simply blind.
The Marrow Cleansing Warrior has about ten drops, while the Tiancheng Ghost King only has more than a hundred drops. Not talking about combat power, it only refers to the mining ability. A Ghost King who has perfected the Holy Manifestation is about the same as a two-color Ruins Spirit.
Shameful, very shabby.
After some "crab walking", Zhou Qing finally returned to the edge of Baiyang Ruins, and the outside world was clearly visible.
There are still many people walking in and out of the Baiyangxu border, some with tired faces, while others are full of hope.
The former is basically a person who goes out, while the latter is a person who goes in with the idea of making a big fortune.
Zhou Qing looked back at Baiyang Xu, and then left directly.
Not only did he get what he wanted, he also got a large amount of Huangquan liquid, which was simply overfulfilling his goal.
This trip to Jiuyang Ruins can be said to be a bloody profit.
This dangerous land is very mysterious, and there are endless treasures buried in it. It is said that some people have had the opportunity to advance to the blue sky.
But all this has nothing to do with Zhou Qing.
No matter how many treasures there are, they are not something he can covet now.
This time he came to Jiuyang Ruins not to explore the place clearly. He just wanted to get a ray of sky fire, that's all.
There are other secrets, deeper thrills and excitements in Jiuyang Ruins. Maybe he will come to explore and experience them in the future, but not now.
Now he is leaving here.
Meeting into the crowd of people leaving, Zhou Qing was not conspicuous.
Walking along the way, he re-entered Jiuyang City. This time it was Jiuyang City in the daytime, which he saw for the first time.
The last time I came here, it was at night.
Zhou Qing first returned to the accommodation he found when he last entered the city. He had booked a room for several days last time, and now it still belongs to him.
It didn’t take long to enter Jiuyang Ruins, only about two days, but it was quite tiring.
The Nine Yang Tide washes away all the time, and the various dangers that may appear at any time make people nervous. There are many battles, and they even involve the realm of Yinshen True Blood.
These things consume a lot of people.
This is also why it is said that there are very few people who can stay in Jiuyang Ruins and not cultivate.
In that kind of environment, it would drive people crazy.
It wasn’t until he returned to Jiuyang City that the tight string in Zhou Qing’s heart began to relax.
"I'm so tired, Master, ah..."
An Lang's voice sounded, and she yawned at the same time.
“……”
Zhou Qing is speechless, are you so tired?
You have been sleeping in the ghost house since I entered Jiuyang Ruins. You would only come out occasionally when I stayed in the space inside Kunfen's body.
As a result, I haven’t yelled yet, so why don’t you yell first if you’re tired?
Zhou Qing rolled his eyes, pulled An Lang out of the ghost house, and said angrily:
"Since you know I'm tired, why don't you hurry up and give me a shoulder squeeze? .”
"Oh."
An Lang was very obedient and immediately began to serve Zhou Qing.
The female ghost is so cold that the temperature in the room has dropped, making people feel comfortable. Especially since Jiuyang City is much hotter than other places, this contrast is even more obvious.
It’s like a super air conditioner.
Zhou Qing closed his eyes in enjoyment, and An Lang was talking to him at the same time.
"Master, the matter is done, what should we do next?"
Zhou Qing closed his eyes and replied: "Take a rest, and then leave Jiuyang City. You can go to Cangyuan County to see your Sister."
"I will leave Tianyang County directly later, go to Senior Sister Yu, and then go to Zhongtian City..."
Zhou Qing did not say anything else, but An Lang Also aware.
Finally, set off to Hanzhou!
"Dong dong dong!"
At this time, there was a knock on the door from outsiders.
Zhou Qing opened his eyes and was a little confused. He had no friends in Jiuyang City, so who was knocking on his door?
Um, is it possible that there is door-to-door service here?
Asking An Lang to stay away, Zhou Qing opened the door, and there were people from the inn standing outside.
"What's the matter?"
"Sir, the day after tomorrow the Jiuyang Alliance will hold an annual Jiuyang auction, and this Jiuyang auction is the tenth year of the event, and the scale is larger than the previous nine years. It needs to be bigger."
"Our inn is under the jurisdiction of the Nine Suns Alliance. According to the alliance's orders, we will send an invitation to each adult."
As the man spoke, he handed it over with both hands. A nine-color invitation.
"If you are interested, you can go to the Jiuyang Alliance in Chiyang District the day after tomorrow and use this invitation to participate in the auction."
"The Jiuyang auction once a year?"
Zhou Qing took the invitation and wrote the time and place as well as some nice words on it. He became interested.
"I understand."
"Sorry to disturb you, sir. I will leave now."
He closed the door when he left, and Zhou Qing sat back with the invitation. On the chair, An Lang came over curiously.
"Sir, is this Jiuyang Auction an event similar to the Ten Thousand Stars Trade Fair?"
Zhou Qing handed the invitation to An Lang, asked her to take a look, and said at the same time:
“The difference may be a bit much.”
"Auction is a trading method that has been abandoned by the Wanxing Chamber of Commerce. At least it is no longer used on the surface, but it still exists here in Jiuyang City."
Zhou Qing is already very familiar with the model of the Wanxing Trade Fair. Familiar, after all, I have participated more than once.
And since this time it is marked as an auction, it is naturally different from the Wanxing Trade Fair, and it is not the same model at all.
At that time, you should have to call out and bid in person, instead of just entering the price on the magic weapon like the Wanxing Fair.
The Wanxing Trade Fair model was created and promoted by the Wanxing Chamber of Commerce. Some places have followed suit, but some places have not adopted it and are still conducting traditional auctions.
Zhou Qing is somewhat interested in this.
Speaking of the fact that he has traveled through time for so long, he has yet to participate in a serious auction. He is obviously an unqualified time traveler.
Family members, who knows whose time traveler is like this?
"Master, are we going?"
"Do you want to go?"
"Yes." An Lang said honestly:
"I have never participated in any auction like this before."
Zhou Qing nodded, "Since you want to, let's go and have a look the day after tomorrow."
An Langxian glanced at Zhou Qing, not wanting to expose Zhou Qing.
It seems that only I want to go, and you don’t want to go...
The two of them get along day and night. An Lang naturally knows Zhou Qing very well, and it is obvious that Zhou Qing is also interested.
“If you have something that looks like it then, just tell me and I will buy it for you.”
Zhou Qing said very proudly:
“I have money now!”
“You’ll see later, I don’t have many things I can use.”
An Lang I have no intention of being polite to Zhou Qing. We have this kind of relationship, so why should we be polite?
As for the Jiuyang auction, Zhou Qing actually knew something about it. It was recorded in the Jiuyang encyclopedia, but it was relatively simple.
Initiated and hosted by the Nine Suns Alliance, it is held once a year and is held in January every year, corresponding to the time when the Nine Suns Tide breaks out.
Here in Jiuyang City, the time of January is still very meaningful.
Not only will the Jiuyang Alliance put out treasures for auction, but if individuals have treasures they want to sell, they can also go to the Jiuyang Alliance for appraisal and then send them for auction.
The annual Jiuyang Auction is not only a major event in Jiuyang City, but also a prosperous time in Tianyang County.
Many people will come from other places to participate in this event, which is quite lively.
The standards of this Jiuyang auction are also very high, and there must be at least Yin Shen true blood level treasures.
Backed by Jiuyang Ruins, the possibility of high-level treasures appearing here is indeed very high.
This Jiuyang auction has several special points in time, and the rules are much higher than those of normal annual auctions.
Every ten, fifty, or hundred years, it is a high-profile event.
