It is now the time when Zhou Qing left Heiyun Town.
He went to Taibai Martial Arts School early in the morning, and then, with everyone seeing him off, he resolutely embarked on his own journey.
Those who should have delivered their gifts have all delivered their gifts.
The reason he came to Yunlong City at this moment was naturally to find Ao Xuanwei.
After crossing Yunlong Lake, they were led by the clam spirit into a room in Yunlong Pavilion, where Ao Xuanwei was already inside.
Zhou Qing had contacted her in advance, and fortunately she did not go to other states, otherwise it would be difficult to meet Ao Xuanwei at this time.
Seeing Zhou Qing coming in, Ao Xuanwei looked at him with a smile and said, "You contacted me suddenly, did you get some treasure again?"
Zhou Qing has asked her to appraise treasures several times this month, but Ao Xuanwei feels that no matter how good a person's luck is, there must be a limit, right?
How long has it been since he last asked her to appraise a treasure? It has happened so many times this month. If he gets another treasure now, wouldn’t that be a bit too much? Then he saw Zhou Qing nodded and said, “One of the reasons I came to you this time is to trouble you again.”
Ao Xuanwei was slightly stunned, then smiled and shook her head.
"It seems that I still underestimated your luck. It is really amazing."
"But this is one of the reasons. What are the other reasons?"
Zhou Qing said directly: "I am leaving Black Cloud Town, and I probably won't be back for a long time."
"After I leave you, I will leave directly, so you and I may not be able to meet for a long time in the future."
Ao Xuanwei didn't know this news because Zhou Qing didn't meet Ao Xuanwei again in the days after making the decision.
So when Ao Xuanwei heard it for the first time, she felt it was a little sudden.
"Leave?" Ao Xuanwei's smile disappeared and she asked:
"Where are you going? Traveling around the world?"
"I plan to go to Tianyang County first. I have heard the news about the Skyfire. It is in Tianyang County."
Zhou Qing answered truthfully: "Then I will go north to Hanzhou and join Xuandu Temple."
"Join Xuandu Temple..." Ao Xuanwei nodded slightly, "It is indeed a good place for you. It can provide you with the most powerful shelter and help."
"but……"
Ao Xuanwei's smile reappeared on her face, and she continued:
"If you go to Hanzhou, it will be quite convenient for us to meet. We won't be separated for a long time as you said."
"The Yun River originates from Hanzhou, or to be more precise, the Shiwan Snow Mountain. I can quickly reach any place where the Yun River flows through."
“…I actually forgot about this.”
Zhou Qing remembered the map of Da Qi that he had obtained from Jiang Hengchuan. Now recalling it, it seemed that the Yunjiang River did indeed start from the Ten Thousand Snow Mountains and flowed down in twists and turns.
Since it originated from the Ten Thousand Snow Mountains, it would not be difficult for Ao Xuanwei to go to Hanzhou, and it would be very convenient.
After all, this area of water is nominally controlled by Yunjiang Dragon King.
Of course, the Yunjiang River is long and vast, and there are always some places where there are aquatic creatures that are not affiliated with the Yunjiang Dragon Palace, but are extremely powerful and undisciplined.
Just like the four seas, the dragon clan is of course recognized as the master of the four seas, but in addition to the dragon clan, there are still countless aquatic creatures within the four seas.
Some aquatic creatures even make dragons feel difficult to deal with.
In this world, the larger the body of water, the more complicated the situation inside it is.
Whether it is the territory of the human race, or the territories of the aquatic race or the demon race, they are actually essentially the same.
There is a recognized master, but everything is still contained within.
"That's good." Zhou Qing smiled and said, "This way, when I go to Hanzhou, it won't be completely unfamiliar to me. At least the familiar Yunjiang is there."
"I can see you occasionally, so I'm not completely unfamiliar with the place."
"Joining Xuandu Temple is a good thing, and with your talent, it will be easy for you to become a true disciple." Ao Xuanwei said:
"When you hold the True Transmission Ceremony and establish the mountain and the peak, I will definitely be there."
In Xuandu Temple, every time a true disciple is born, a true disciple ceremony is held to celebrate.
It is not necessary to invite many fellow practitioners, after all, he is only promoted to a true disciple, not to become an unparalleled strong man, but it is still quite lively among the disciples inside Xuandu Temple.
The more powerful your backing is in Xuandu Temple, the more lively the ceremony will be.
At the same time, outsiders are not prohibited from participating. If the disciple has strong connections, then naturally someone will come to congratulate him.
Lu Qingmo had already told Zhou Qing about these situations in advance.
"Don't open the incense halfway...open the wine. If you fail to advance to the true sect, it will be very embarrassing."
Zhou Qing smiled and said, "I can only say that I tried my best to get you to attend my True Transmission Ceremony."
"You can definitely do it." Ao Xuanwei was very confident in Zhou Qing, and then she asked:
"Do you need to go to Hanzhou via Yunjiang? I can arrange it for you."
Zhou Qing shook his head, "That's not necessary."
"After leaving Tianyang County, I have to go to Suzhen Palace. One of my senior sisters has become a disciple there. I have to go see her and send her a letter."
"After leaving Suzhen Palace, I still have to go to Zhongtian City. It's not very convenient to take the water route."
One reason is that it is not on the way, and the other reason is that there is not a straight line from Yunjiang in Tianzhou to Yunjiang in Hanzhou.
It is very winding and complicated, and taking the water route will take you a long time to wander around in a state.
"That's fine. Anyway, be careful when the time comes."
"Don't worry, I'm still waiting to participate in your True Dragon Ceremony."
Because Yunjiang River originates from the Ten Thousand Snow Mountains, and Ao Xuanwei can go there to see Zhou Qing at any time in the future, there is no sadness in saying goodbye to her, but rather a sense of relief.
Separation when you can meet again at any time is not separation.
Maybe when Zhou Qing arrives in Hanzhou, Ao Xuanwei will already be waiting there.
It arrived faster than Zhou Qing, so who was saying goodbye to whom? Next, Zhou Qing took out the treasure that he needed to ask Ao Xuanwei to identify. It can be expected that this will be the last time he asks Ao Xuanwei to identify the treasure for a long time in the future.
I'm not used to it.
The things he couldn't recognize were two sacred trees, the white refined substance that bloomed after the battle in Tianyue City that night, black metal, and a pill.
Ao Xuanwei was immediately attracted by the two sacred trees. Her eyes moved back and forth between the sacred trees and Zhou Qing, making Zhou Qing feel a little shy.
"If I remember correctly, you got a Yuanwu treasure tree last time. Why are you getting another one now..."
Zhou Qing replied: "It was just luck."
Ao Xuanwei rolled her eyes at Zhou Qing, it was just a fluke.
She looked at the two sacred trees carefully, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.
"The grades of these two treasure trees are higher than the Yuanwu treasure tree. Have they reached the level of Yinshen True Blood?"
Zhou Qing nodded, "It should be, I have the same judgment."
Great minds think alike! "Did you get this in Tianyue County?"
"Yes." Zhou Qing asked seriously:
"Is there something wrong?"
“…”
The biggest thing wrong with you is that you were able to obtain three tree treasures in succession in Tianyue County.
Ao Xuanwei couldn't understand how a small town like Black Cloud could produce three such treasures in a row, and how they were obtained by the same person? The Child of Destiny, right?
The treasure grows right in front of your house, right?
Treasures will automatically appear wherever you pass by, or they are the kind that others can't see, right?
Ao Xuanwei found it quite incredible.
She just looked at Zhou Qing with a gleam in her eyes. What a mysterious man.
Zhou Qing felt uncomfortable being looked at by Ao Xuanwei, and said quickly:
"Appraise the treasure, not me."
Ao Xuanwei smiled and said, "If there is a chance and I have the ability, I would really like to appraise you."
After saying that, Ao Xuanwei turned her gaze back to the two sacred trees.
Observe with your eyes, touch with your hands, sense with your mind, and use the unique abilities of the dragon race to distinguish, and then compare it with some information in her memory.
Finally, Ao Xuanwei came to a conclusion and looked at Zhou Qing again.
“This True Blood Divine Tree should be a sacred tree called the Holy Blood Tree.”
"Holy Blood Tree? It's a nice name, but what are the uses of its fruit?"
"Two functions." Ao Xuanwei raised a finger and shook it.
"The first function is that when a marrow-washing warrior is promoted to true blood, if he can refine a holy blood fruit, he can save some time in condensing true blood."
"Your master is already a warrior at the True Blood Realm. You should know that it takes a long time to advance to this realm. The Holy Blood Fruit can shorten this process."
"Hmm...it can probably save about a month."
"That's quite useful." Zhou Qing nodded.
Time is life, and it is meaningful to be able to leave the country a month in advance.
Especially if it is some extremely urgent moment, this month is very important.
"It is useful, but it should be noted that the Holy Blood Fruit cannot increase the probability of being promoted to the True Blood Realm. Or rather, it can increase it, but the increase is very small."
Ao Xuanwei explained to Zhou Qing in detail the characteristics of the Holy Blood Fruit.
Saving time does not guarantee a breakthrough.
Condensing true blood when breaking through the realm is a tedious task that requires coagulation of blood over and over again, which is quite energy-consuming.
The medicinal power of the Holy Blood Fruit can only help warriors improve their progress to the level of seclusion for about a month in a short period of time.
Then it will not help with subsequent breakthroughs in cultivation, and the warrior will need to rely on himself.
Those who are destined to fail will fail.
Even during the period when the Holy Blood Fruit's medicinal power is exerting effect, if the warrior himself relaxes, he may be affected by the medicinal power and unable to control the process of accelerating the condensation of true blood, thus failing to break through.
Zhou Qing once obtained a Ten Thousand Blood Spirit Flower in the Earth Beast Farm, which was a rare treasure that helped in the advancement of true blood.
It can increase the speed of condensing true blood and make the final true blood of higher quality, and it works from beginning to end.
A Ten Thousand Blood Spirit Flower can greatly increase the probability of a breakthrough.
It is a realm-breaking treasure that is far more precious than the Holy Blood Fruit.
However, one is a solitary product, and the other is a mass product that can be grown and harvested repeatedly, so it is normal to have a difference.
"If a warrior fails to advance to the True Blood stage, the Holy Blood Fruit can mitigate a small portion of the backlash from the failure, but it is a partial backlash and cannot be avoided."
"Very good, is this its second ability?"
In the later realms, every breakthrough is a gamble. If you win, you will be promoted rapidly, but if you lose, you will suffer a great loss.
It's already great to be able to reduce a small part of the backlash.
"No, this is its ability to assist in breakthroughs." Ao Xuanwei shook her head and said:
"The second ability is that it can be absorbed and refined by True Blood Warriors to assist in their cultivation."
"Most of the treasures of heaven and earth that are helpful for advancing to the True Blood Realm can actually also assist in the cultivation of the True Blood Realm, and the Holy Blood Fruit is no exception."
"However, each warrior can only take one Holy Blood Fruit. If you take it during a breakthrough, it will be ineffective if you use it after the breakthrough, and you will directly develop resistance."
Zhou Qing said: "In this case, it involves the issue of trade-offs."
If you are sure that you can be promoted to True Blood, then of course it is more cost-effective to save the Holy Blood Fruit for later. But if you are not sure, then just eat it early and enjoy it early.
"When you go to Xuandu Temple and plant it, it will bring you endless benefits."
"With such a precious tree, you will be very wealthy in the future when you reach the True Blood Realm..."
As she spoke, Ao Xuanwei suddenly felt something was wrong.
What does it mean to be prosperous in the future?
He is already very rich now!
Not to mention anything else, just the treasures that Zhou Qing asked me to appraise this month are something that even many Yin Shen True Blood Realm cultivators would not be able to obtain.
Even the dragon girl in the Dragon Palace is envious of her.
Yunjiang Dragon Palace is very rich, much richer than Zhou Qing’s, but those treasures do not belong to Ao Xuanwei.
Ao Xuanwei will not be short of anything needed for cultivation. She has everything she needs.
Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)
But if you say to take the treasure out of the Dragon Palace treasury and keep it for yourself, that would not be a good idea.
Besides, Zhou Qing was a treasure he found himself, and that feeling was completely different from inheriting something from his parents.
This kind of luck is really enviable.
I wonder if my luck will improve if I'm with him...
"If I'm lucky enough to have the True Transmission Peak, then I do intend to plant it."
Once again, great minds think alike.
"I wonder how many years it will take for this Holy Blood Tree to mature?"
“It takes ten years to ripen.”
"Ten years?!" Zhou Qing's voice rose a little.
"Ten years is not a long time. If you start practicing martial arts at the age of twelve, you will only be twenty-two after ten years. You can't even meet the requirements to use the Holy Blood Fruit."
Zhou Qing felt helpless when he heard this. It may not be long for you, but for me, ten years is really not short.
I have been practicing for less than a year.
"Can planting in a blessed place shorten the time it takes to mature?"
"Yes, but it can't be shortened by half like the Yuanwu Treasure Tree. I'm not sure how many years it can save."
Ao Xuanwei comforted her, "Your Holy Blood Tree has borne fruit now. Although it is still immature, it will definitely take less than ten years for it to mature."
"You have the opportunity to enjoy the first batch of holy blood fruit."
This is true. When these three tree treasures opened from the treasure chest, they were already in the fruit or bud state and did not need to grow from scratch.
Otherwise, if they are in the seedling stage, it will take who knows how many years for them to grow up, and then we have to wait for them to bloom, bear fruit and mature.
The daylilies are cold.
That's a pretty good consolation.
"There are also fruits. This tree produces thirty-six holy blood fruits each time. The number of fruits is fixed and cannot be changed. It cannot be changed even if it is planted in a blessed land. The fruits of a sacred tree of this level are mostly thirty-six."
Zhou Qing was a little surprised, "Why is that?"
“I don’t know, but this is the information that has been circulated in the world. Most of the True Blood-level sacred trees have also verified this truth. Except for a very few special sacred trees, there are no exceptions.”
"But why are there only nine fruits on the Yuanwu Treasure Tree?"
Can high-level ones tie better than low-level ones?
This is not right.
"That's because the Yuanwu Treasure Tree can produce at least nine fruits. If it is cultivated and the planting environment is good, it will increase."
"Thirty-six, seventy-two, all are possible, but the True Blood-level Divine Tree is already fixed."
"There are actually such rules..."
Ao Xuanwei looked at another sacred tree and said:
"This is a sacred tree that corresponds to the soul, and is called the Soul Tree."
"To be honest, I have heard about this kind of tree before. It seems that there are people planting this tree in the world, but I have never seen it. I have only seen clear records of it in ancient books."
"It is more mysterious and rarer than the Holy Blood Tree."
Zhou Qing became interested when he heard it, "Is it so strange?"
"That's it." Ao Xuanwei continued:
"The Soul Tree does not bear fruit, it only blooms, and there are thirty-six flowers in total."
"When it finally matures, the fully bloomed flower will directly close again. When you use it, touch it with your spirit, and the soul flower will bloom again, and soul pollen will float out of it. That is something that is beneficial to the soul."
"The most amazing thing about the Soul Flower is that it can work on the souls of monks and ghosts!"
Zhou Qing was slightly surprised; he didn't expect the flower to be so magical.
Humans and ghosts have different paths, and this is not just talk.
One is Yang and the other is Yin, which can almost be said to be completely opposite, and there are very few things that can be used interchangeably.
Taoist magic, elixirs, and even materials are all exclusive to ghosts, and are completely different from those used by living people.
Treasures that can be used by both humans and ghosts definitely exist. Maybe their quality is not high, but they must be extremely rare.
Zhou Qing didn't expect that this soul flower would have such an effect. This means that the value of the soul flower is far more precious than the normal Yin Shen soul treasure. It is really a treasure.
Especially when he thought about it again, this thing was opened from the Huang family's treasure chest, Zhou Qing felt even happier.
"What effect does the soul flower have?"
"Heal the wounds if you have any. This treasure has a very good healing effect. It is said that it can be effective unless the wound to the soul's origin is particularly serious."
"If there is no damage, the soul flower can improve the spirituality of the soul. When reflected in cultivation, it will increase the affinity to various powers, which is equivalent to improving the soul's talent and potential, and can even affect understanding!"
Ao Xuanwei's expression became more serious. "This kind of soul flower is very precious. The Holy Blood Fruit cannot be compared with it."
"But it's the same as the Holy Blood Fruit. One person can only use one."
Zhou Qing breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that this soul flower was simply too powerful.
Whether it is the body or the soul, the wound of origin is the most difficult to heal. The soul flower can actually be effective. Even just this point alone determines its high value.
What's more, it can also improve the spirituality of the soul. Most of the time, this effect is even more precious.
If you ask people to choose between a treasure that improves the soul's cultivation and a treasure that improves the soul's spirituality, most people will definitely choose the latter.
Without a doubt, this is a rare treasure!
"Your soul tree can only be effective against Yin God cultivators at best. The Yellow Springs realm has undergone a fundamental transformation and is useless to them. However, there is a legend about the soul tree that it may be able to advance to become a higher grade soul tree."
"When the time comes, the Yellow Spring monks will also admire you, but this is just a legend, so don't hold out any hope."
Zhou Qing didn't care about this, on the contrary he was very satisfied.
"Even if I can't advance, it's good now."
"I wonder how often this soul flower blooms?"
"Twenty years."
“…Twenty years?!”
Zhou Qing's voice rose again. It was ten years older than the Holy Blood Tree! It was indeed a good thing.
Now Zhou Qing could clearly realize the preciousness of the Soul Tree.
"Fortunately, there are already flower buds now, so it shouldn't take long for them to leave the flower."
As long as he can enjoy the first batch of soul flowers, then when the rest of them bear fruit will not have a particularly big impact on his own cultivation.
You can only use one anyway.
"I didn't expect you could get the soul tree." Ao Xuanwei was a little amazed.
“When you go to Xuandu Temple, these two sacred trees may become your foothold, making many people admire you and bring you benefits.”
Zhou Qing shook his head. "This kind of treasure should be used to serve oneself and one's own people first."
"When the Holy Blood Fruit and Soul Flower are ripe, I will leave a portion of each for you and give it directly to you."
Ao Xuanwei smiled and said, "I will remember what you said today. If you forget my part at that time, I will not agree."
Zhou Qing assured: "Don't worry, I won't forget it."
"Please put these two sacred trees away."
Zhou Qing did as he was told, and then Ao Xuanwei pointed at the piece of black metal that was as tall as a person.
"This is a kind of true blood divine material. You don't even need to look at it for long. I know it. It's called Little True Martial God Gold."
"It is said to be one of the best True Blood Divine Materials, especially suitable for refining weapons. You have a sufficient amount of Small True Martial Divine Gold here, which will be enough to support you in refining a True Sword in the future."
"One of the best true blood divine materials?"
This is a really big name.
"I'll tell you one thing, and you'll understand why I say that." Ao Xuanwei said:
"There is a kind of immortal gold in the world, called Zhenwu Immortal Gold, which is used to refine immortal tools."
“…I understand.”
Judging from the names of both parties alone, they are worthy of being described as some of the best true blood divine materials.
Another good thing.
"This pill..." Ao Xuanwei tested it and came to a conclusion.
"A true blood-level healing elixir, pretty good."
Zhou Qing nodded and said that was fine.
There will always be a market for healing pills, and there will always be people who want to use them.
Zhou Qing asked again: "What about this lotus?"
Ao Xuanwei didn't look at Jianli, but looked at Zhou Qing with complicated eyes.
"Tianyue County, where on earth are there so many treasures and where the Divine Lotus grows?"
"This is called the Divine Transformation Lotus. I know it too. One of my brothers has used one."
"When a soul is about to be promoted to a Yin God, if it sits in the Lotus of Transformation, it will be of great help in condensing the Yin God. It is a rare treasure for breaking through realms, and it will wither after being used once."
"But this kind of treasure only grows among ancient snow-capped mountain communities!"
Ao Xuanwei really couldn't understand.
Where is the snow mountain community in Tianyue County? It's really amazing luck. God threw the Divine Lotus in front of you, right?
“…”
Zhou Qing was speechless and unable to explain. These treasures were very special.
Ancient snow mountain communities, maybe?
However, the Divine Lotus is also a good thing.
With his current wealth and collection, when he faces some cultivation levels in the future, it will probably be surprisingly easy for him.
But looking at Ao Xuanwei's complicated eyes, Zhou Qing thought for a moment and said, "Maybe, I'm lucky?"
Ao Xuanwei held her forehead with her hand.
Are you cursing again? (End of this chapter)
