Chapter 328 Seven-Leaf Earth Spirit Vermillion Grass
When Qin Xingbao saw that his uncle whom he admired just abandoned him, he gave him a "resentful" look, which gave Qin Ziling goose bumps all over his body. He couldn't help but imitate Qin Zitang and flicked his finger at him.
"Bang!" Qin Xingbao hugged his head again and said with a sad face: "Uncle, why did you hit me too?"
"I'm reminding you to remember the dean's words and be low-key and humble in the future. Don't get carried away when nothing goes wrong." Qin Ziling said with a serious face.
"Yes, yes!" Qin Xingbao nodded quickly.
When Qin Zitang saw Qin Ziling pretending, a smile appeared on his cold face.
Qin Xingbao's eyes suddenly widened , as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
"Why are you looking at me?" Qin Zitang flicked his finger in the air again.
This time, Qin Xingbao just rubbed his forehead gently and said, "Dean, you just smiled. You look really good when you smile. You should smile more often."
Qin Zitang was stunned for a moment, then his thin face turned cold. He snapped his fingers at Qin Xingbao's forehead, making Qin Xingbao beg for mercy repeatedly.
"Dean, is the Middle Demon General really that terrifying? Isn't the Big Demon General even more terrifying?" Qin Ziling still took into account the relationship between uncle and nephew, so he interrupted.
Qin Zitang stopped after hearing this and said, "That's for sure. Every time a medium demon general appears, the Qin family will have elders and children killed. Once a great demon general appears, all forces in Wuzhou must unite to send troops into the cave. Otherwise, once the great demon general rushes out of the cave world, its demonic energy will demonize the creatures in a large area, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
In fact, the various forces guarding the exit of the caverns occasionally send people to sweep the cavern world, mainly to prevent the birth of medium and large demon generals, especially large demon generals, which would have disastrous consequences once they are born. "
"Even if the Great Qi Kingdom does not have a Martial Saint at the Marrow Refining Realm, doesn't it still have a Qi Refining Master at the Thunder Tempering Realm? It is rumored that the Director of the Sitianjian is a master. Can't he take action to kill the great demon general?" Qin Ziling asked.
"In the dark, this world has its own laws of operation. Master Xuan cannot enter the entrance to the underground cave world in the Wuzhou area. Once he forces his way in, he will be struck by five thunders and die. Once the big demon rushes out of the underground cave world, by the time Master Xuan arrives to kill it, all living things will have been destroyed." Qin Zitang replied.
Qin Ziling was silent for a long time after hearing this, then he asked, "Does the Great Qi Kingdom have a Martial Saint at the Marrow Refining Realm?"
"It is said that there was one in the previous dynasty, but no Martial Saint has appeared since the founding of the Great Qi Kingdom. No one knows whether there is one or not, and it is not something we can know." Qin Zitang was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then replied.
Qin Ziling's heart trembled slightly when he heard this, and his expression became solemn.
He seemed to have thought of something, but with his identity and strength, he had no way to verify it, nor did he dare to verify it.
"It's almost done, we can go back. If we stay there for more than seven days, the evil energy here will cause harm to the Bone Refining Master." Qin Zitang stood up from the ground and said.
"Okay." Qin Ziling nodded, and was about to leave when he suddenly exclaimed "Huh".
Then his body flew like a ghost towards the direction where the demon army had just rushed from.
Qin Zitang and Qin Xingbao were slightly stunned when they saw this, and then hurriedly chased after him with questions in mind.
After running for several miles, they saw Qin Ziling's back.
In front of Qin Ziling , on the left was a dark and dangerous area, and no one knew what was hidden inside. On the right was a black hill.
In a corner between the dark danger and the black hill, in a crevice that was difficult to see from the angle they were standing at, there were three vermilion plants growing.
This plant looks like it was carved from a ruby, seemingly fake yet indescribably lively.
There are seven leaves on all three plants, and the shapes of each leaf are different. Some are oval, some are maple leaf-shaped, and some are pine needle-shaped...
But without exception, they are all warm vermilion, without any other color.
"What's wrong?" Qin Zitang walked forward and asked curiously, following Qin Ziling's gaze towards the corner.
In an instant, Qin Zitang's eyes widened and his breathing became heavy.
"Seven, seven-leaf earth spirit red grass, there are actually three of them!" Qin Xingbao, who came up next, couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise, his voice trembling and stammering.
"Are there any particular requirements for picking the Seven-Leaf Earth Spirit Red Grass?" Qin Ziling asked.
"It's nothing special. As long as you dig it out with the roots and soil and put it in a storage ring, it doesn't matter if it is kept for many years." Qin Zitang replied, his voice a little hoarse.
"Master, is one Seven-Leaf Earth Spirit Vermilion Grass enough for you to break through to become a mid-level master?" Qin Ziling asked.
"This is what you discovered." Qin Zitang's heart trembled, but he quickly said calmly.
"Dean, although you have acted very cold since entering the Weiwu Academy, I know that you still care about me. Moreover, not long ago, we shared life and death together." Qin Ziling said.
"That's my duty. It was you who saved me not long ago." Qin Zitang said.
"Dean, you have to change your temper, otherwise you will suffer in the future and have no friends." Qin Ziling looked at Qin Zitang speechlessly and said.
To Qin Ziling's surprise, Qin Zitang did not get angry at all. Instead, he nodded calmly and said, "You are right. Give me one of them. I really need this Seven-Leaf Earth Spirit Vermillion Grass if I want to break through."
"That's right. After all, we are siblings from the same clan!" Qin Ziling said with a smile, then stepped forward and carefully dug up three seven-leaf earth spirit red grasses.
Looking at Qin Ziling's back, Qin Zitang's eyes became slightly moist, but soon returned to normal.
Qin Ziling dug up three seven-leaf earth spirit vermilion grasses and gave one to Qin Zitang. Then he looked at Qin Xingbao and said, "Although it is said that whoever sees it gets a share, you have just broken through to the late stage of bone refining. You don't need this seven-leaf earth spirit vermilion grass yet, so I won't give it to you. Wait until you have almost finished refining your bones and are ready to refine your organs."
Qin Xingbao had never thought that he had a share of the Seven-Leaf Earth Spirit Vermilion Grass. Hearing Qin Ziling say this, he felt touched and flattered, and said quickly: "Uncle, look at what you said. The Seven-Leaf Earth Spirit Vermilion Grass was originally discovered by you, so how can I have a share. Besides, you gave me a portion of the Green Wood Black Rhino's Blood Essence, and I still haven't eaten half of it!"
"What, Ziling gave you a portion of the blood essence of the Green Wood Black Rhino?" Qin Zitang said in surprise.
"You have to be more careful when you go back, you big mouth!" Qin Ziling glared at Qin Xingbao unhappily.
"Hehe, don't worry, uncle. I know very well what to say and what not to say. The dean is one of us, so I said this." Qin Xingbao said hurriedly, and at the same time he also returned the knife that Qin Ziling had just abandoned him.
Sure enough, Qin Zitang looked at Qin Xingbao with a much gentler gaze after hearing that, but when she turned her gaze to Qin Ziling, there was a hint of sharpness in her gaze.
"Hehe, of course the dean is one of us. I'm just worried that this guy is outspoken, and if he lets something slip when he goes back, it will be a big trouble." Qin Ziling explained hurriedly when he saw this.
"Really?" Qin Zitang asked back with a cold expression.
"Yes, of course! If you don't believe me, I'll give you another seven-leaf earth spirit red grass." Qin Ziling said hurriedly.
"Forget it, one seven-leaf earth spirit red grass is enough. It's useless to eat too much." Qin Zitang said lightly, but his originally cold face seemed to have a hint of smile.
But this time Qin Xingbao learned his lesson and immediately turned his head away when he saw this.
My forehead still hurts!
"Let's go back. This trip to the cave has ended successfully. Don't you think so, Xingbao?" Qin Ziling patted Qin Xingbao on the shoulder and deliberately emphasized the last sentence.
"Of course, of course, if my uncle said yes, then it must be!" Qin Xingbao felt a chill all over his body and was filled with regret.
You can't play smart with anyone else, but you have to play smart with your uncle!
My uncle is as smart as a devil, how could he not see it?
Qin Zitang looked at the subtle interaction between the uncle and nephew. He wanted to laugh but was worried that it would damage his image, so he had a hard time holding back.
…
The three of them identified the direction and, guided by the shining "star" hanging in the sky, walked towards the exit.
"What are your plans after you get out? Is there anything you need my help to arrange? It's okay if you don't stand out in the clan. I'm here anyway and I can arrange a lot of things. If I can't, you can also ask my great-uncle to come forward." Qin Zitang said on the way.
Like her great-uncle, she also remembered what her great-great-aunt had said not long ago.
"Your great-uncle?" Qin Ziling looked puzzled.
"It's the old man on the fifth floor of the Sutra Library." Qin Zitang replied.
"Turns out he is your great-uncle!" Qin Ziling said in surprise.
"My branch has produced three masters in recent generations , my great-uncle, my father and me. My father passed away early, and I was nurtured and raised by my great-uncle." Qin Zitang said, with a rare tenderness in his eyes.
"How many masters are there in the Qin family?" Qin Ziling hesitated and asked the question he had always wanted to ask.
"The main branch of the Qin family in Wuzhou, as well as the disciples stationed outside and the branches that have branched out, were counted when the family tree was revised this time. There are thirty-five masters, including four middle masters and one Qi-refining grand master. If the previous head of the family had not encountered an accident twenty years ago, the strength of the Qin family would be much stronger than it is now. Now it has declined somewhat." At this point, Qin Zitang couldn't help but think of what his great-aunt said not long ago. Thinking of her failure in thunder tempering, a hint of worry flashed in the depths of his eyes.
Even though Qin Ziling had already expected that the Qin family of Wuzhou had a strong foundation, he still felt deeply shocked after hearing Qin Zitang's words.
And this is when the Qin family is in decline. If it were in its heyday, how amazing would the Qin family be?
From the Qin family, Qin Ziling couldn't help but think of the Prince's Mansion.
The Qin family is so powerful, what about the Prince's Mansion? That is the crown prince of the Great Qi Kingdom!
"It seems that I still have a long way to go!" Qin Ziling thought secretly.
