“Shhh!”

The blazing flames brought about an extremely intense heat wave, as well as a bone-chilling cold current that distorted the vision and even seemed to affect the space.

One on the left and one on the right, one with gray as the main color and the other with red as the main color, the two flames became the center of this space.

It has been seven days since Zhou Qing started to devour and fuse the Heavenly Fire.

Although there were some twists and turns and difficulties along the way, he ultimately won the battle between him and the Fusion of Heavenly Fire.

The magical flame formed by the fusion of two heavenly fires had been completely devoured by his yang earthly fire and turned into nutrients, leaving not a single drop behind.

Now, the power of the Yin and Yang fires has reached an extremely terrifying level, fully meeting the requirements for practicing the Hunyuan Fire.

Looking at the two flames in front of him, Zhou Qing nodded with satisfaction, and then took them into his body.

The cultivation of Hunyuan Fire requires the fusion of Yin and Yang little by little. These are two opposing forces. It is imaginable how difficult it is to integrate them into one. It requires a process. Zhou Qing plans to do it on the way to Xuandu Temple.

If he continued to stay in Zhongtian City to practice Hunyuan Fire, it would take too much time.

Zhou Qing took out another precious tree.

This magical weapon has undergone great changes over the past few days.

The third branch has completely grown out.

After completely devouring and refining those divine materials, the wonderful tree finally grew another branch.

In terms of length and thickness, the third branch is similar to the first branch, with only a slight difference in color.

The third branch is purple and red, with tangled flame and thunder patterns on it.

At this time, purple-red light was flowing on the third branch, the whole tree was glowing, and something was gestating inside.

With every passing moment, the wonderful tree looked more and more magical.

There was deep expectation in Zhou Qing's eyes when he looked at Miao Shu.

After devouring all those divine materials, the One Treasure Wonderful Tree, no, now it is the Two Treasure Wonderful Tree.

It began to change like this and entered a metamorphosis.

And what is growing and developing inside the wonderful tree is the spirit.

A cultivator's magical weapon will only give birth to a spirit when it reaches the level of a divine weapon. It is easy to imagine what kind of changes Miao Shu has undergone this time.

Now its strength has reached the level of a divine weapon. Once it gives birth to a divine weapon spirit, it will become a true divine weapon!

The instrument is the body, and the spirit is the god. When both the body and the god are present, it becomes a complete instrument.

By then, Zhou Qing will also obtain the first artifact in his life, which will also be his natal artifact.

It is a miracle that Riyoujing possesses his own divine weapon.

"Please bring it out quickly, my spirit..."

Zhou Qing muttered to himself in his heart, looking forward to the changes that would occur when Miao Shu completely became a divine weapon.

Now only the advancement of the body of the instrument has been completed, so there is not much movement.

Zhou Qing stood up. In seven days, he had made great progress and was very satisfied with everything.

"I wonder what's going on with Qin Duguan..."

Thinking about it, Zhou Qing walked out of here, thanked the Dong family again, and then said goodbye and left.

At this point, many of his matters in Tianzhou had basically been settled.

As soon as Qin Ming's handover is completed, we can go to Hanzhou together and experience a whole new world.

When they arrived at the Ghost and God Department, Qin Ming and Wang Yuan were both there. Seeing Zhou Qing coming, Qin Ming looked at him briefly, then smiled and said to him:

"It seems that we have gained a lot, and our demeanor is even better than before."

Zhou Qing smiled and replied, "I gained a little bit."

Qin Ming added: "I have basically dealt with the matter here, what do you say?"

"I'm fine now, and I can leave anytime," Zhou Qing said.

Qin Ming nodded, "Okay, since everything is fine, let's leave tomorrow."

"Can."

Wang Yuan smiled and said, "You are free now. The next time we meet, I am afraid you will be dead. Then I will have to pay my respects to you."

"Haha." Qin Ming laughed. To be honest, he was a little bit expectant.

Wang Yuan looked at Zhou Qing again and said:

"I hope I can also hear the name of another genius from my Xuandu Temple here in Tianzhou."

Zhou Qing said seriously: "I will not disappoint you, senior."

On the second day, Zhou Qing and Qin Ming left Zhongtian City without delay.

Qin Ming also has a flying magic weapon, and it is more luxurious.

The magic weapon floated outside Zhongtian City. Qin Ming turned and looked at Zhongtian City, while Zhou Qing looked in the direction of Heiyun Town, both with a myriad of thoughts in their minds.

Qin Ming has been in Zhongtian City for more than twenty years. It can be said that he has become accustomed to everything here and naturally has feelings for it.

This is especially true for Zhou Qing.

The world he saw when he opened his eyes after traveling through time was Black Cloud Town.

The first half of his life in this world was filled with traces of thick dark clouds, and he spent it entirely there.

Now I am about to go on a long journey with an uncertain return date. The people and things from the past can only exist in my memory, which inevitably makes me feel sad.

The scenery of Tianzhou is becoming less and less popular.

Finally, Qin Ming retracted his gaze and said, "You will come back, and in a better form, to surprise those who have high expectations of you and make them happy for you. The future will be bright."

"Let's go now, let's go."

Zhou Qing stopped looking at the black clouds and nodded.

"Um."

It is impossible for a person to be trapped in one place for his whole life. Leaving now is for a better meeting in the future.

Just remember your original intention.

The flying magic weapon flew away at a very fast speed. Being controlled by a double-talented master, its speed was naturally amazing, which Zhou Qing could not compare with.

On the magic weapon, Qin Ming said:

"This time, we have to enter Qingzhou first, and then go to Yongzhou, Yuanzhou, Guzhou and other states, and finally reach Hanzhou."

The distance between Tianzhou and Hanzhou is really not close, there are several states across Tian and Han.

"You have been practicing for less than a year, and your talent is too outstanding. If you travel every day from now on without any spare time, it will greatly affect your progress in practice."

Qin Ming looked at Zhou Qing and continued:

"With your talent, a delay of two or three days is no problem, but if it is delayed for ten days or half a month, the loss will be huge."

"So in order not to delay your practice, we will not travel all day without rest. We will stop every day to give you time to practice and complete your daily practice lessons to ensure that your practice will not be affected by the journey."

It is easy to cultivate the soul on a flying magic weapon, but it is really inconvenient to practice martial arts.

"Of course, this is also equivalent to taking a rest and replenishing supplies. Otherwise, if you keep flying in the sky, you will inevitably get tired. In this way, it will take longer to travel."

Zhou Qing nodded, "I understand, cultivation is the most important thing."

Qin Ming thought carefully and made the decision entirely for his own good.

With Qin Ming's current cultivation level, if he does not break through to the Yellow Springs Realm, daily practice will be of no use.

The constant travel every day had no effect on him. Instead, it helped him return to Xuandu Temple faster.

But he took the initiative to make such a suggestion because he was really considering Zhou Qing.

As he said, with Zhou Qing's practice speed, not practicing for ten days or half a month would really be a huge loss.

Since Qin Ming chose to accommodate Zhou Qing, it was inevitable that the journey would take longer.

"This is your first time leaving Tianzhou. You can go and have a good look at the scenery of other states." Qin Ming said with a smile, "This world is very big and beautiful. Not to mention the mountains and seas, the Hundred Thousand Snow Mountains, even the different states and counties have their own unique scenery and are worth seeing."

“It’s important to go to Xuanfa Mountain, but the scenery along the way is also worth stopping to appreciate.”

Zhou Qing smiled slightly, "I am also looking forward to the outside world."

"I will definitely not let you down." Qin Ming talked about some interesting things.

"For example, Guzhou is the largest state among the states we are going to pass through. It is as big as several Tianzhou combined."

"There are ancient people on the land of this state. It is said that they have survived from the barbaric era to the present day. Of course, they are also human, but their living habits are very different from those of today's humans."

"Moreover, there are many wild places in the ancient states, and the demon tribes there are also very powerful, and they have a good relationship with the ancient people."

"It's like there's a special kind of Yuanling tribe living and multiplying on the land of Yuanzhou. It's a very magical tribe."

“…”

Ancient people, Yuanling tribe, wildness...

This world is very mysterious, full of mystery and beauty, and Zhou Qing is really looking forward to it.

He had seen a lot of things in Tianzhou, but there must be more things outside.

This trip is his first step to thoroughly understand the world and truly step onto the world stage.

It is also a very critical step.

"Oh?" Zhou Qing became interested. "What place is it?"

“The original ancient land.”

When Qin Ming uttered these four words, his expression became much more serious.

"Primitive Ancient Land, what is this place?"

"This is a forbidden place for living beings!"

Qin Ming explained: "It is said that this is old land left over from the most ancient times. Everything inside belongs to the primitive times. It is a forbidden area for people today."

Zhou Qing asked: "Like Jiuyangxu and Wubiantianxu?"

"No." Qin Ming shook his head. "Although Jiuyang Ruins and Wubiantian Ruins are dangerous, they can still be explored. If you are strong enough and lucky enough, you can get some benefits from these two places."

Zhou Qing nodded silently. It was indeed the case.

There is an endless stream of people exploring these two ruins.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

Zhou Qing had been to Jiuyang Ruins openly, and had also sneaked into Wubiantian Ruins.

The only small piece of land in Tianxu County that has not become wasteland is now actually a paradise for adventurers.

Adventurers from all over the world gathered there, carrying out activities around the Boundless Sky Ruins, hoping to gain some benefits from the Boundless Sky Ruins.

But there must be more people who died.

The danger level of the Boundless Sky Ruins is far higher than that of the Nine Yang Ruins.

But now, according to Qin Ming, this primitive ancient land is even more ferocious? "The primitive ancient land is more special. It cannot be explored. Once a creature enters, it is almost impossible to get out. It may die in there, or some other accident may happen."

Qin Ming said solemnly, "So it is called a forbidden place for living beings, and only masters of the fairyland can try to enter and exit."

"But all the immortal masters who have entered the primitive ancient land have tacitly kept silent about the situation inside, and only warned everyone not to intrude into the primitive ancient land."

Zhou Qing was surprised. It seemed that the primitive ancient land was indeed more dangerous than the Boundless Sky Ruins.

It is actually an area where death is almost certain, no wonder it is called a forbidden area.

Zhou Qing sighed, "There are actually places like this in the world."

Qin Ming warned: "If you go to Guzhou in the future, you must not enter the primitive ancient land."

“Although this primitive ancient land is terrifying, there is one thing that is very interesting.”

"What is it?"

"All ancient people regard the primitive ancient land as a holy place. They will worship there and pray to the primitive ancient land. Even if they cannot enter the primitive ancient land, the reverence for that forbidden land is engraved in the bones of the ancient people."

“If you deal with the ancients in the future, you must never insult the original ancient land in front of them.”

"There are things like this... It's really interesting."

Zhou Qing was very interested in these things, and Qin Ming also talked to him more.

The whole world is full of dangerous places and restricted areas, and in fact, they are not only found in Da Qi. Zhou Qing listened with great interest.

The sun and the moon rotate, black and white cycle, and the two have appeared in Qingzhou.

"Qingzhou is larger than Tianzhou, but the overall power gap between the two states' cultivation communities is not that big."

Looking at the mountains and rivers of Qingzhou below, Qin Ming said:

"Qingzhou is the area actually controlled by the Cui family. You should know that."

"Yes, I have dealt with disciples of the Cui family before." Zhou Qing nodded.

"The Qinghe Cui family is well-known throughout the world, and the overall reputation of this family is good."

At a certain moment, Qin Ming controlled the flying magic weapon to land and arrived outside a city.

Taibao County City.

As a county town, it is naturally quite lively.

Well, the people in Qingzhou look pretty much the same as those in Tianzhou, without any weird changes in appearance.

The accent is slightly different, but it's still easy to understand.

The language of the three human countries in this world is unified. People will not speak gibberish when they leave the country. They all speak the human language.

At most, due to regional reasons, there will be some unique accents, making the tone sound strange.

"This issue's Dragon and Tiger List is out!"

Walking on the streets of Taibao County, Zhou Qing suddenly heard a loud roar, which caught his attention.

Dragon and Tiger List? What is this? I have never heard of it!

Qin Ming saw Zhou Qing's confusion and explained to him:

"This Dragon and Tiger Ranking is a list that records the geniuses, and the strong and the weak are distinguished by their rankings on the list."

"Isn't that similar to the Mountain and River Common People List?" Zhou Qing asked doubtfully:

"Why haven't I heard about the Dragon and Tiger List in Tianzhou?"

Suddenly, Zhou Qing thought of a possibility.

"Is there no young person in the entire Tianzhou who can make it onto this Dragon and Tiger Ranking?"

Qin Ming laughed dumbly, "Of course it's impossible. With Suzhen Palace alone, Tianzhou's genius wouldn't be so weak."

"The Dragon and Tiger Ranking you heard about now should strictly be called the Qingzhou Dragon and Tiger Ranking. It is different from the Mountain and River Common People Ranking, which records all the geniuses in the world. It only records the geniuses who appeared in Qingzhou and made moves in front of others."

"The Dragon and Tiger List was originally created to imitate the Mountain and River Common People List. Some states have established the Dragon and Tiger List, while some states have not."

"Qingzhou did it, but Tianzhou didn't. That's why you haven't heard of this thing in Tianzhou. It's not like the Mountain and River Common People Ranking, which covers the whole world and is all-encompassing. It's just a list within the scope of one state."

"ah?"

Zhou Qing was stunned. He didn't expect that the so-called Dragon and Tiger List had such rules.

"The Dragon and Tiger Lists of each state are all drawn up by the overlords of each state. Only in this way can people be convinced. However, some states do not have the inheritance of top Taoist sects, and other Taoist sects are powerless to draw up the Dragon and Tiger Lists. Even if they do come up with a Dragon and Tiger List, its gold content is not as high as that of other states."

I can’t say about the whole world, but within a state, the top Taoist school can still cover it and has absolute prestige.

"And some states, although they have top Taoist traditions, have not done this. Suzhen Palace is one of them. Without Suzhen Palace taking the lead, there would be no Dragon and Tiger List in Tianzhou."

Zhou Qing was a little puzzled, "Why doesn't Suzhen Palace do this?"

"Taking the lead in establishing the Dragon and Tiger List should be beneficial, right?"

The essence of this kind of list is actually a reflection of authority.

Whoever owns this list has the authority.

You have both fame and fortune.

"Some forces in Tianzhou went to Suzhen Palace to make a suggestion, but were rejected by Suzhen Palace." Qin Ming said: "This is not a rare thing. It is not only Suzhen Palace that does this in the states of Daqi. There are also other top Taoist sects that do not set up the Dragon and Tiger List."

“This has also led to fierce competition in some states for the Dragon and Tiger List. Not only do people from the state want to be on the list, but people from nearby states that are not on the list will also come here to show their strength.”

"Each state's Dragon and Tiger Rankings do not have any requirements for background. It doesn't matter if you are from another state. As long as you have performed well in your own state and have enough strength, you can be on the list."

"So in states with Dragon and Tiger Rankings, the geniuses are more active and it is easier for them to become famous than in places without rankings."

"On the Qingzhou Dragon and Tiger List, there must be many Tianzhou prodigies. Every issue of the Dragon and Tiger List will be announced to all counties and prefectures. It is easy to become famous overnight."

Zhou Qing felt a little envious when he heard this.

If Tianzhou also had a Dragon and Tiger List, he should have achieved fame in Tianzhou long ago.

Things like the Dragon and Tiger List mean that most of the forces in a state are helping you to become famous, so it is hard for your reputation not to spread quickly.

Without the Dragon and Tiger List, it would be very difficult for the deeds of a genius to spread to the public.

"Let's also take a look at this issue of Qingzhou Dragon and Tiger List."

The two followed the flow of people and saw from afar four pieces of parchment pasted in an extremely conspicuous place with clear handwriting.

"Number one on the Dragon Ranking, Ziwei descended to the mortal world. Cui Yaohe, perfected his sainthood, experience: killed at Dayan Mountain..."

"No. 2 on the Dragon Ranking, Snow Covered the World. Zhang Qiling, Perfect Manifestation of Sainthood, Experience: Facing..."

"Tiger Ranking. Martial Ranking No. 1..."

"Tiger Ranking. Number one on the Dao Ranking..."

Zhou Qing's eyesight was excellent and he could read the contents of the four papers from a long distance.

At the same time, Qin Ming was also explaining to him: "Each state has 100 places on the Dragon and Tiger List, which is divided into the Dragon List and the Tiger List. The Dragon List records 50 practitioners who have reached the Saintly Marrow Cleansing Realm."

"The Tiger List is divided into two lists: the Martial Arts List and the Daoist List. They record 25 Bone Refining Warriors and 25 Day Travelers respectively, for a total of 100 people."

There is no problem comparing the Manifestation of Sageship and Cleansing Marrow Realm together, but it is inappropriate for them to compete together with the Day Traveling Bone Refining Realm. Zhou Qing can fully understand separating them.

And since it is a list specifically for recording the geniuses, it will definitely not include practitioners like the Venerable who can be classified as strong.

"Ziwei descended to the mortal world... The Dragon and Tiger List still gives people titles?"

"Yes, based on your achievements and image, you will be given a title that suits you, and will be praised by all the people."

Zhou Qing was even more envious now.

If you have a title that is so impressive, how much face you will have when you go out? I want it.

He felt that the role of Sword Immortal was quite suitable for him.
