Chapter 297 Something Happened
"Isn't this fruit amazing?" Qin Ziling said with a smile.
"It's more than just amazing! It's simply too amazing!" Jian Bailou exclaimed.
"But this fruit is only effective if you take one. It will be useless if you take the second one, so please keep these two fruits, teacher." Qin Ziling smiled and took out another Shenglong Fruit, and then pushed the two together to Jian Bailou.
Jian Bailou looked at the two Shenglong Fruits right under his nose and was unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
After a long time, Jian Bailou pushed the two Shenglong Fruits back.
"It's actually not that difficult to go from a junior master to a mid-level master. It's mainly a process of accumulating and refining mana. Once the quantity and quality of mana meet the requirements, you will basically become a mid-level master.
When your master broke through, he ate the most suitable Feijin beast, and the Gengjin evil spirit he introduced into his body was also of high quality. Therefore, the altar your master has built is very solid. As long as you give your master some years to slowly accumulate and temper himself, he will eventually become a mid-level master. There is no need to waste such a rare fruit of heaven and earth.
As for Zi Luo, the Feijin beast blood essence and Gengjin evil spirit veins have been prepared for him in advance. As long as the time is right, he can start to try to break through. His talent is not inferior to his master, and he is still young, so it is not a big problem, and there is no need to eat Shenglong fruit.
"But the disciples of your Wuji Sect are basically warriors. The practice of a warrior is a race against time. Many people would rather spend less time training their skin, flesh and bones than waste time in order to make a breakthrough as soon as possible. This Shenglong Fruit is actually the most valuable to warriors, so you should keep it for Zheng Xinghan and the others." Jian Bailou said.
"To become a junior grandmaster, one just needs to reach the requirement of quantity and quality of magic power, right?" Qin Ziling asked. He is still at the True Essence realm, and is not very clear about some of the mysteries of the grandmaster realm.
"It's definitely not entirely true, but the most crucial issue still lies in the quantity and quality of mana." Jian Bailou replied.
"Haha, that's really great! Teacher, you are right. It would be a waste to use these two Shenglong Fruits to break through. You should keep these two Shenglong Fruits and eat them when you become a mid-level master. The same goes for Senior Brother Feng. This way, it should be much smoother to break through to become a grand master." Qin Ziling said happily.
"You'd better keep it. Master said so, but it will take some years to achieve a breakthrough. It would be a waste if such rare fruits were kept in my hands for a long time without being used. We should make sure they can be used as soon as possible." Jian Bailou shook his head.
Qin Ziling smiled, and suddenly a golden light flashed before his eyes. Then a pile of gold magic crystals appeared on the ground. Each one was as big as a fist, and there were as many as thirty pieces in total.
"This... this should be a top-grade magic crystal stone. It's so big and there are so many of them!" Jian Bailou's white beard was shaking again, and he was even more excited than when he saw the Shenglong Fruit.
"Top-grade magic crystal stone? Are magic crystal stones divided into different grades?" Qin Ziling asked.
“Well, there are two grades: ordinary and superior . Speaking of which, I haven’t seen a magic crystal stone in many years, and the ones I have seen are only ordinary magic crystal stones.
This top-grade magic crystal stone is just a guess by the master, because it looks much better than what the master saw back then. By the way, I heard from the ancestor that one top-grade magic crystal stone can be exchanged for twenty ordinary magic crystal stones. "Jian Bailou said.
"One dollar for twenty dollars?" Qin Ziling was shocked when he heard that.
"I don't know if it's like this now, but this is something the ancestor mentioned unintentionally before." Jian Bailou said.
"No wonder Qingxu and Jinyuan both fought for it when I threw out one. The size of this one piece is equivalent to the twenty pieces in their collection. If you multiply it by the exchange rate, it will be equivalent to four hundred pieces.
Qingxu and Jinyuan are both mid-level masters after all, and they only have 60 or 70 pieces in their storage rings. That means that any one piece I take out is more than the two of them put together. Tsk tsk, it looks like I've made a fortune this time!" Qin Ziling calculated in his mind, and a happy smile appeared on his face involuntarily.
"Where did you get so many magic crystals?" Jian Bailou couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Teacher, don't worry about these for now. Look, with so many magic crystal stones, it should greatly shorten the time it takes for you to break through and become a mid-level master, right?" Qin Ziling pushed the magic crystal stone in front of Jian Bailou and said.
"Are these for me?" Jian Bailou widened his eyes.
"If I'm not giving it to you, why should I take it out? To show off to you that I'm rich?" Qin Ziling rolled his eyes.
Jian Bailou stared at Qin Ziling for a long time before he moved his dry throat and said, "Are you planning to let me practice with the magic crystal stone every day?"
"As long as you are happy." Qin Ziling said with a smile.
"You say that because you don't understand how precious the magic crystal stone is!" Jian Bailou said with emotion, "When you reach the Grandmaster level, who wouldn't want to hold a magic crystal stone and practice every day? But the problem is that magic crystal stones are very rare and precious, and are usually used on blades. Usually, you should find a place with relatively abundant spiritual energy and meditate every day to absorb it. As for food, try to eat mainly spiritual rice and spiritual grains."
"You also said that the problem is that the number of magic crystals is small and precious. But now that you have accepted a wealthy disciple, there is naturally no need to be so stingy. Use the magic crystals for cultivation. The key is to improve your strength as soon as possible. This time, I went out and found that there are many strong people outside.
Although your strength is among the best in Xiyunzhou, it is still not enough to go out. Moreover, the practice of warriors is a race against time, and so is that of Qi Refiners. It's just that the situation is better than that of warriors. As for the Shenglong Fruit and the Magic Crystal Stone, don't worry, I still have a lot here, and I have reserved them. "Qin Ziling said.
Upon hearing this, Jian Bailou looked at Qin Ziling deeply, then stopped refusing, nodded decisively, and put away the two Shenglong Fruits and thirty gold magic crystals.
"Can you tell me about your experience going out this time?" Jian Bailou asked.
Qin Ziling nodded and briefly recounted some of his experiences.
Even though Qin Ziling had avoided the important issues and saved a lot of time, Jian Bailou was still stunned and couldn't recover for a long time.
It’s only been a few days since he went out, and he’s already killed two mid-level masters, one of whom is actually a judge!
Is his disciple the Seven Killing Stars?
I have to improve my strength as soon as possible!
"I didn't expect that you came back so quickly, and so many thrilling things happened." After a long time, Jian Bailou said with emotion.
"I didn't expect that. Originally, I was planning to stay out for a year or two, but after just a few days, I'm back again." Qin Ziling sighed.
"What are your plans next? Are you going to continue going out, or are you going to stay here and practice?" Jian Bailou asked.
"I gained a lot from this trip. There's no need to rush out for now. I should calm down and digest what I learned." Qin Ziling replied.
"Well, this is safe. And on your side, only Xiao Qing has the conditions to break through. Now that she has her skills, there is no rush for the others. Let them polish them more." Jian Bailou breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and nodded.
He was actually a little worried that his disciple had just killed two mid-level masters and was going out to explore the world right away!
"Yeah, that's what I thought too." Qin Ziling nodded.
As soon as Qin Ziling finished speaking, his eyebrows suddenly raised slightly, and he turned his head with a hint of surprise to look towards the entrance of the hall.
Jian Bailou also turned his head and looked over, saying with a smile: "This Xiao Qing has made Fangqiao County even more airtight. As soon as I arrived, she received the news and rushed over right after."
"Her breath is not right, there must be something else." Qin Ziling stood up with a serious expression. He reached out his hand towards the door of the hall, and the door slowly opened.
As soon as the door of the hall opened, Qin Ziling saw Xiao Qing jumping off the back of the blood eagle and flying into the hall, unwilling to delay even a moment.
"What happened?" Qin Ziling saw that Xiao Qing had a strange expression and immediately stepped forward to ask.
"I just received news that cousin Cui was seriously injured by Bai Yu Lieyang in the state capital because of Yun Lan. Yun Tai was also injured. Afterwards, all three of them were taken to Jinyan Mountain. The specific situation is unclear now." Xiao Qing replied.
"Isn't my cousin the county magistrate of Qinghe County, an official appointed by the imperial court? Even if Bai Yulieyang is the leader of the Jinlie Sect and a master of his generation, where does he get the courage to so blatantly injure him and detain him in Jinyan Mountain?" Qin Ziling's face suddenly turned cold when he heard this.
"The relationship between Jinliemen and the Governor's Office is extraordinary." Jian Bailou interrupted, with a solemn look on his face.
"The Governor's Mansion?" Qin Ziling narrowed his eyes slightly, but then made a prompt decision: "We'll talk about the details on the way."
"Okay!" Jian Bailou and Xiao Qing nodded.
Qin Ziling quickly called someone over and gave him a few words of instruction. Then he, Jian Bailou and Xiao Qing boarded the Golden Crowned Crane and Blood Goshawk respectively, soared into the sky, and flew rapidly towards the provincial capital.
On the way, Xiao Qing briefly explained the cause of the incident.
It turns out that Wujimen’s business empire has been developing rapidly these days.
Some time ago, Yunlan planned to further develop the business to the provincial capital.
Cui Shanhe's second uncle used to work in the provincial capital and had quite a few connections and influence in the city.
So Yunlan asked Cui Shanhe for help and wanted to establish connections with some local bosses in Tongzhou City.
As a result, something quite bloody happened.
Bai Yulieyang's most beloved disciple Shi Yuejin accidentally saw Yunlan in a restaurant and was shocked by her beauty.
Shi Yuejin was very talented in martial arts. He had already reached the late stage of bone refining at a young age. He was also deeply loved by Bai Yulieyang. Therefore, except for a few people in the state capital, he did not dare to offend them. He basically did not take the rest seriously, let alone Yunlan, a seemingly weak young woman.
So in the restaurant, Shi Yuejin flirted with Yun Lan with words unscrupulously, and even when Yun Lan ignored him and turned away, he actually tried to forcibly take her away for fun.
Yuntai tried to protect him, but was injured by him.
Just at this time Cui Shanhe arrived.
Cui Shanhe knew that Yun Lan and Qin Ziling had a special relationship, so how could he allow Shi Yuejin to humiliate her? Seeing that Yun Tai was seriously injured, he naturally flew into a rage and started a fight with Shi Yuejin.
Cui Shanhe was already a quasi-grandmaster, and Shi Yuejin was no match for him and was injured by him.
That day, Bai Yu Lieyang happened to be a guest in the Governor's Mansion. He rushed there upon hearing the news, personally injured and suppressed Cui Shanhe, and brought the three of them back to Jinyan Mountain, asking Cui Baiming and Xiao Qing to go to Jinyan Mountain in person to lead them.
