Chapter 289: Are you still planning to keep them?
Although Qingxu knew that Qin Ziling's words were meant to provoke him, he still enjoyed it. On the other hand, Jin Yuan, who had originally looked elegant and upright, now had a ferocious look on his face when he was scolded in public by an unknown junior for being hypocritical and ungrateful.
"How dare you, you rat!" Jin Yuan shouted loudly, and he made some hand gestures. Strands of green light escaped from the woods in all directions and condensed into a large green palm that grabbed Qin Ziling's head.
"Master Qingxu, take it!" Qin Ziling raised his hand and the storage ring shot towards Qingxu like an arrow.
Taoist Qingxu raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw this, and stretched out his claws through the air. A green palm appeared in the void and grabbed the storage ring.
Seeing this, even though Jin Yuan knew there was something fishy going on, he didn't care about Qin Ziling for the time being and quickly reached for the storage ring.
"Hmph!" Qingxu's eyes turned cold when he saw Jin Yuan actually reaching out to snatch the storage ring from him. A strong wind suddenly blew in the air, and countless green lights shot up into the sky from the trees below, condensing into a towering hand, and slapped towards Jin Yuan's outstretched claws.
Jin Yuan's face changed slightly when he saw this, and he cast a spell again. Green light from all directions poured into the virtual claws, which suddenly became extremely huge and solid.
When Qingxu and Jin Yuan were fighting each other for the storage ring, Qin Ziling once again picked up Zhu Huiqin by the waist, held her under his arms, pushed off the ground with his feet, and soared into the sky, this time fleeing towards Tailao Mountain.
"Hmph, I have already figured this out!" Qin Ziling soared into the sky and was about to flee in the direction of Tailao Mountain, but Manager Mo swooped across like a ghost and blocked his way.
However, just as Manager Mo swooped over and tried to block Qin Ziling's way, a cold ice snake shot out from Qin Ziling's armpit.
It was Zhu Huiqin’s Ice Snake Sword.
Even though Manager Mo is a veteran who has experienced many battles, there are still times when he makes mistakes.
His attention was always on Qin Ziling, and he saw Zhu Huiqin being held under Qin Ziling's armpit all the way, so he naturally ignored her subconsciously, but he forgot that she was also a quasi-grandmaster-level figure.
Her sword suddenly shot out and stabbed at him. Even though Manager Mo was a junior master, he was caught off guard and was a little confused.
With just this slight confusion, Qin Ziling's body had already swung in the air like a dragon, and flew past him like lightning. In a flash, he became a black dot in the vast mountains.
Seeing that Manager Mo failed to stop Qin Ziling, Qingxu and Jin Yuan's faces changed slightly.
Although they knew that Qin Ziling's purpose in throwing out the storage ring was very clear and that the trick was very low-level, neither of them dared to be sure whether there was any useful stuff in the storage ring.
After all, in the eyes of the two, with the two of them around, Qin Ziling would definitely be dead. In this situation, it was a normal move for him to sacrifice his car to save his driver and fight for a chance of survival.
But what if there is no useful information in it? The two of them left Qin Ziling in order to fight for the storage ring. Wouldn't it be that the two great masters had worked in vain and were fooled by others?
"Walk!"
However, Qingxu and Jin Yuan were old foxes after all, and they quickly came up with a compromise. Almost as if they had telepathy, each of them separated a strand of magic power to wrap around the storage ring, and then they flew towards the direction where Qin Ziling disappeared at the same time.
"This kid is really cunning!"
"Not only is he cunning, he's also extremely fast, and he's no less capable than us. "
"Humph, it's probably because he's both cunning and fast that he was able to escape from the Battle Ruins Forbidden Land!"
"That's for sure. But no matter how fast he is, he won't stop. As long as he doesn't stop, his aura fluctuations won't escape our perception. I want to see how long he can hold on."
"But it's not a good idea for us to wrap the storage ring like this."
"That's true. How about I erase the mark first, then use blood to make a sacrifice and see if there's anything inside, and then you can make a sacrifice and check it out?"
"That's fine, but a strand of my magic power still needs to be wrapped around the storage ring."
"good!"
During the rapid chase, the two old foxes reached an agreement.
Then Qingxu took the initiative to erase Qin Ziling's mark, and then he performed a blood sacrifice. Then the magic power in Qingxu's body suddenly fluctuated, his eyes suddenly became fierce , and his face turned ashen. Jin Yuan was frightened and his face changed drastically. His magic power suddenly burst out and he pulled the storage ring over.
However, to Jin Yuan's surprise, Qingxu did not stop him at all and let him snatch it away.
Jin Yuan had no idea what was going on when he saw this, but he still didn't give up. He galloped while erasing the mark and then performed a blood sacrifice.
After the ritual, Jin Yuan moved his mind and entered the storage ring, but found that the storage ring was not only pitifully small, only two feet square, but also empty inside.
Suddenly, Jin Yuan's magic power fluctuated like Qingxu's, and his face turned ashen.
"I, Jin Yuan, swear I will not be a human being if I don't kill this kid!" Jin Yuan's face turned pale, and the storage rings in his hands were crushed by him, causing a tiny space storm and strong winds all around.
"This guy is cunning. If he uses the same trick again later, we must not be fooled again." Qingxu said, his long black hair flying straight back.
…
In front, Qin Ziling and Zhu Huiqin were fleeing towards Tailao Mountain with a burst of pure energy and blood, while they were distracted by circulating the Five Elements' true essence and refining the Shenglong Fruit.
Qin Ziling is probably the only one in the entire Great Qi Kingdom who can concentrate on circulating his true energy to refine the Shenglong Fruit while escaping at a high speed.
As Qin Ziling practiced the Five Elements Kung Fu, the Five Elements Dragon in his Dantian continued to grow stronger and bigger. The dragon scales on his body, the branch-like dragon horns like deer antlers, and the dragon claws under his belly all became exceptionally clear, exuding an incomparably powerful, ancient, majestic and domineering aura.
"This Manager Mo is an expert at tracking and is very fast, on par with a mid-level master. Just now, with your strength, if you had drawn your sword and slashed back without intending to, you should have been able to seriously injure Manager Mo, and that would have also cut off a part of their strength." Zhu Huiqin was trapped under Qin Ziling's armpit. Although she could vaguely feel that a powerful aura was locking onto them in the distance, apart from the indescribable complex feeling of being trapped under the armpit, she did not feel the slightest bit of fear and was even in the mood to discuss the gains and losses of the tactics with Qin Ziling.
"That's true! But if I had really struck back with my sword just now and severely injured Manager Mo, my strength would have been exposed! In this case, Qingxu and Jinyuan, those two old foxes, would definitely be extremely cautious to deal with me, and I'm afraid it would be difficult for me to keep them.
And if I didn't injure Manager Mo seriously and was only focused on escaping, they would definitely think that I was just a fast runner, and once they caught up with me, it would be a sure thing that I would be killed, without any suspense at all." Qin Ziling replied.
"You, you still plan to keep them?" Zhu Huiqin stuttered a little when she heard this.
She thought Qin Ziling was really trying to run away, but she didn't expect that Qin Ziling was planning to keep Qingxu and the other two.
Those are two middle-level grandmasters and one junior grandmaster!
"If we don't keep them, won't we be exposed? And if I don't keep them, why should I take the risk of eating three dragon fruits in a row?" Qin Ziling asked instead of answering.
Zhu Huiqin was speechless for a long time after hearing this. After a long time, she suddenly realized and asked, "Three Shenglong Fruits, you will be okay, right?"
"I was a little worried at first, but now I feel good. However, it seems that eating too much of this dragon fruit is useless. I guess one of them was wasted." Qin Ziling replied.
"One of them was eaten for nothing!" Zhu Huiqin's mouth twitched when she heard that.
A rising dragon fruit is more precious than a fifth-grade intermediate-level exotic beast.
Qin Ziling said lightly, "I ate it for nothing!"
"By the way, you threw a storage ring there just now, what's in it?" Zhu Huiqin quickly stopped worrying about the Shenglong Fruit. Anyway, Qin Ziling was a person who could not be understood by common sense, and there was no point in worrying about it, so she turned to be curious about the storage ring.
From one point of view, no matter how outstanding a woman is, she has a curious and gossipy heart.
"Empty." Qin Ziling replied casually.
"Empty?" Zhu Huiqin was stunned for a long time.
"Anyway, I have a lot of storage rings." Qin Ziling added.
He already had a lot of storage rings, and he had been "killing and robbing" along the way, so he collected many more storage rings.
Of course, most storage rings have very small spaces, but storage rings are still storage rings and are still very valuable. Unless you are a great Qi Refiner or a great martial artist in the middle to late stage, you basically have no chance of owning one.
Therefore, Qin Ziling kept them carefully, thinking that he was now the head of a sect after all, and it would be great to use them to reward his disciples in the future.
As a result, he didn't expect to be hunted down by two middle-level masters today, so he had to take one out to "reward" them.
Qingxu and the other two were Qi Refining Grandmasters after all, but Qin Ziling had to distract himself from circulating his true essence to refine the Shenglong Fruit. Gradually, the distance between them narrowed due to the burst of his physical body alone.
Once the distance got closer, Qingxu and Jin Yuan, who were both masters of the wood element , were able to create obstacles for Qin Ziling by mobilizing the wood element power in front of Qin Ziling.
In desperation, Qin Ziling had to use the same old trick again and threw out another storage ring.
Although the two old foxes had already reached an agreement not to be fooled, they still had doubts and hopes in their hearts.
What if it's true this time!
Therefore, he was inevitably restrained for a while, and then the distance between him and Qin Ziling was shortened.
Of course, this time the two old foxes had experience and were able to resolve the disagreement quickly, taking turns to check in the same way as before.
Of course, the storage ring is still empty.
The five continued the life-and-death chase.
Qin Ziling only went towards Tailao Mountain and never went to crowded places.
This is exactly what Qingxu and Jin Yuan want.
The pursuit lasted a whole day and a night.
Along the way, Qin Ziling threw the storage ring several times.
However, he changed his strategy. Sometimes he deliberately did not throw it in the direction of the three people, and sometimes he threw it to Manager Mo.
Qingxu and others knew that this was most likely just a feint, but they couldn't just ignore it.
