The barbarian leader stood at a place where five corpses were lying, his face ashen.
First, there was a demon tribe from nowhere that killed several barbarian teams, and now even ghosts have come out to interfere? This is a serious provocation to the ruler of the grassland!
"Is it a ghost sent by the human race, or a wild ghost from the grassland who wants to take advantage of the war? Or is it someone's ghost slave who committed the crime?"
Another venerable analyzed rationally and made various guesses.
If it was the humans who instigated this, then they would naturally retaliate severely.
But if it was a native ghost from the grassland who wanted to fish in troubled waters and make a fortune by taking advantage of the chaos on the border...
Then they actually have no choice.
No matter when or where, no matter what race or category, as long as there is war and chaos, there will always be people who want to fish in troubled waters and seek benefits from the chaos.
Just like on the human side, whenever there is a war, there are always evil cultivators who do things in secret to practice their magic skills.
Of course, there are such people on the grassland, and within the barbarians, there are also evil cultivators and demons like the human race.
Greed and desire, emotion and wisdom, will all lead to the depravity of living beings.
If such people do one job and leave, they can't retaliate.
To be honest, in addition to what Zhou Qing did, there were other barbarian soldiers who died inexplicably and fell outside...
Zhou Qing is not the only one doing such things, but others are not as targeted and frequent as Zhou Qing.
Otherwise, the barbarians would not have to send out so many patrol teams.
While the Barbarian Lord was investigating carefully, Zhou Qing had already left the scene.
He didn't even release the surveillance device and just left.
When the work is done, he will leave, hiding his achievements and fame.
Finally, Zhou Qing arrived at the second mission location under the cover of night.
Looking at the scene in the distance, Zhou Qing suddenly felt it was a difficult situation.
This is actually where a tribe is located, so it will be a bit troublesome to place the mission items.
But fortunately, it’s just a few troubles.
Because the person who came to do this task was me, Zhou Qing! The soul changed, the ghost energy dissipated, and Zhou Qing directly turned into the soul of the barbarian.
He took out the clothes prepared for him by Xuandu Temple and kept his identity card.
Then Zhou Qing swaggered towards the barbarian tribe in front.
I, a barbarian, am going to the barbarian tribe to find some water to drink. Is that okay? When Zhou Qing approached the barbarian tribe, a light lit up, and someone shouted:
"who?"
Zhou Qing stopped and asked loudly: "Which tribe is this?"
The person on the opposite side also saw Zhou Qing's appearance clearly, and after feeling his aura, he relaxed a little.
They are barbarians.
"This is the territory of the Lower Cold Division. Who are you, sir?"
On this side of the grassland, the area close to the border has always been a barren land. There are no powerful tribes at all, most of them are in the lower part, and there are very few in the middle part.
From the perspective of the barbarians, the further north you go, the closer you are to the God of Immortality, and that is the treasure land.
In places like this close to the human territory, the energy of heaven and earth is neither strong nor strong, and it is dangerous. Only those barbarians with weak strength will gather here and survive.
As for the daily vigilance against the human race...
To be honest, there is no need to be on guard against the barbarians.
Even if there are problems with the barbarian tribes on the border, the barbarian leaders don't care.
It's just right that something happened. You can return directly to the arms of the God of Immortality. Isn't this a good thing?
Of course, having said that, the barbarians still stationed some forces and experts on the border to guard it, and they did not ignore it completely.
But those forces still need respect and support from the border tribes, so why would they care about them?
"My name is Xubu Attila. I come from the Yuechi Upper Tribe in the east. I came to the border to participate in the war. I want to ask you, do you know the current situation on the border?"
The Upper Division of Yuechi is a real tribe, and it is an identity specially prepared for Zhou Qing by Xuandu Temple. This name is just something Zhou Qing made up.
The upper part of Yuechi is in the direction corresponding to the territory of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, which is far away from here. There is no shadow of the upper part of Yuechi behind this war, and the masters of this tribe did not come to the front line.
Zhou Qing disguised himself as a member of this tribe, so there was little risk of being exposed. The upper part was very large, and even the masters of the tribe could not know everyone in the tribe...
The grassland is also divided into regions. Wars with Da Qi are generally fought by the barbarian tribes in the direction of Da Qi, and the barbarian tribes in other regions will not intervene.
However, it is very common for the tribal leaders to not interfere and for the tribal people to come to the scene to participate in the battle and hone their skills.
Seeing that the man below Lin Han did not reply immediately, Zhou Qing frowned, his aura spread out, and he shouted:
"Why don't you answer me quickly?!"
Zhou Qing was very arrogant, his tone was condescending, and he wasn't very polite.
Because this is the norm among the barbarians.
When it comes to etiquette, the main thing about the barbarians is that they have some, but not much, especially between the upper and lower parts, the gap in strength is too big.
For someone like Zhou Qing, who comes from an upper class background, there is no need for him to be polite when facing someone from a lower class. What he should do is to boss and give orders.
The custom on the grassland is that the strong are respected and the weak must absolutely respect and submit.
This is essentially the case within the human race, but at least there are laws to constrain them, so most people will still put in some superficial efforts.
But the situation is completely different among the barbarians. They don’t even put in superficial efforts.
The masters of the royal department could easily destroy the lower class, and no one would say anything.
If Zhou Qing was polite, that would actually be a problem.
As for the barbarians, you should command them from a high position!
That person was an internal organ warrior, and under the pressure of Zhou Qing's aura, he felt like he was falling into an icy cave.
I can't breathe! Seeing how uncomfortable he was, Zhou Qing slightly dissipated his oppressive aura.
"Sir from the Upper Yuezhi Department, I have been staying in the tribe and I am not aware of the situation on the front line."
He said with great fear:
"The priests in my tribe may know something."
"Lead the way quickly and take me to see your priest."
Zhou Qing flew over and then entered the Linhan tribe under the guidance of that person.
There are stone houses and tents everywhere, and you can also see many human-style attics.
Located on the border, there is indeed a lot of integration of the cultural customs of the two ethnic groups.
Zhou Qing quietly sensed the situation of this tribe. They were not strong, and the highest one was only at the Daytime Bone Refining Realm.
"Has your tribe sent any warriors to the front lines?"
"Yes, a total of thirty tribal warriors set out with the army at the beginning of the war."
Zhou Qing's expression eased a little after hearing this, and he asked again: "I see that your place doesn't seem to be a temporary base for the army, and there are no experts here. It seems that you are still some distance away from the front line, and I will have to walk for a long time."
"Your Excellency has a keen eye, but with your strength, this distance is very close."
The barbarian flattered him a little and said:
"The tribes closest to the border have now been transformed into temporary military bases. We don't have that blessing."
Although he said that he didn't have that blessing, Zhou Qing could see that he was very happy about this matter.
Being temporarily requisitioned, it seems that they are making contributions to the barbarians, but that is their own tribe, their own home.
After the war, when the barbarian army withdrew, his home had already been completely destroyed and in ruins.
Zhou Qing nodded slightly when he heard this. Very good, there are no masters here.
While walking, Zhou Qing quietly separated a wisp of his soul and took the golden task item to find a place to put it.
Since there is no expert in charge, then with his strength, even a trace of his soul cannot be detected by the people of this tribe.
Zhou Qing went to see the tribe's priest, and his soul began to act, splitting into two groups.
After a while, Zhou Qing left here with the farewell of the masters of the Linhan tribe.
Mission progress: 2/5 After walking a long way away, Zhou Qing looked back at the Linhan tribe with a cold look in his eyes.
Unfortunately, this tribe is where the mission items are placed. If it is suddenly destroyed and noticed by the barbarians, it will attract experts to investigate, and then the things Zhou Qing left here will be in danger of being exposed.
otherwise……
Compared with the method of reverse sacrifice, a barbarian lower part will have to lean back.
The successful completion of the former is the most important thing.
After making sure there was no one around, Zhou Qing turned into a ghost again.
The identity of a barbarian is only used at the critical moment.
At other times, he would disguise himself as other races to confuse the audience, which would be more beneficial to Zhou Qing's actions.
But this time, Zhou Qing didn't walk far before he met another master.
Its aura was so powerful that it could be felt from a long distance away. It was stronger than the feeling Zhou Qing had with the wolf lord.
"Your Excellency?"
Zhou Qing's eyes lit up, he didn't know whether it was a respected leader in the barbarian army or some other identity.
After thinking about it, Zhou Qing did not stay there and wait this time. Instead, he began to escape at a normal speed for a ghost in the middle stage of manifestation of the Holy Spirit.
As a ghost, his first reaction when he met a strange venerable outside was to run away. This was normal.
After all, ghosts themselves are also a famous cultivation resource...
Aren’t you afraid? Are you waiting for the Venerable to treat you to a meal?
But as soon as he ran, the unknown venerable immediately chased in his direction.
"Why are you running?"
A deep and powerful voice sounded, and the person who came was a barbarian Yin Shen Venerable.
Feeling his aura, it is similar to that of Zhang Xinkong who has undergone the first stage of true blood refinement.
"Your Excellency, I..."
Before Zhou Qing could finish his words, he saw the barbarian elder stretched out a hand, and his palm grew bigger in the wind and directly pinched Zhou Qing.
"I didn't expect to meet a little ghost in the Manifestation Realm while traveling. It's an unexpected gain."
“…”
Zhou Qing was speechless.
This is why I run.
The barbarians on the grassland are so rude.
Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)
No, you guys just start fighting whenever you want, and you don't even want to pretend? They are indeed barbarians, barbaric enough, and there is no wrong name.
but……
I like.
"call!"
The wind was howling, and the six spirit puppets soared into the sky. Before the barbarian elder could catch Zhou Qing, they flew directly in front of him at a speed that was even faster and more difficult for him to react.
A punch was thrown out, accompanied by the sound of a dragon's roar, and a real dragon appeared and entwined on the arm, lifelike and majestic.
The five spirits and the evil spirits each brought a special ability to the six spirit puppets.
This puppet is not a stupid lump of iron that can only move forward and backward!
Seeing the sharp edge of the Six Spirit Puppets, the Barbarian Elder's face changed drastically, and the big hand that was originally attacking Zhou Qing instantly dissipated in the air.
While he tried his best to keep some distance, he also immediately used defensive Taoist techniques and mobilized his own innate magical weapon to protect his body.
But this is not enough, far from enough, the gap between the two sides is too big.
Under the True Dragon Fist, all the defenses of this barbarian leader were instantly shattered.
At the same time, another attack emerged, directly targeting the vital points of the Barbarian Lord.
Zhou Qing also took action at the same time and did not stand by and watch.
"boom!"
With a loud bang and explosion, the Barbarian Lord was directly knocked away, and his whole body's energy was extremely chaotic.
"Such a terrifying puppet, who are you?!"
"I originally wanted to go to the border to participate in the war, and use the souls of living people as nourishment for cultivation."
Zhou Qing said expressionlessly:
"Why are you pushing me?"
Upon hearing this, the Barbarian Lord felt extremely aggrieved.
Isn't it normal for you, a little devil who has manifested himself as a saint, to be killed by me?
You should have told me earlier that you had such a puppet. If you had told me earlier, I would have worshipped you long ago!
"I……"
Before the Barbarian Lord could finish his words, the Six Spirit Puppets had already appeared in front of him again, roaring like a real dragon, splitting the soul and shattering the spirit.
The Yin Fire appeared quietly again and fell directly on the Barbarian Lord, causing him to burn fiercely.
Zhou Qing once refined a ghost fire. Although it had been fused with the earth fire, after the fusion of those strange fires of heaven and earth, its own characteristics still existed and could be displayed.
Therefore, when Zhou Qing disguised himself as a ghost and used the ghost fire, it was perfect and no one would be able to find the flaw.
The battle did not last long and was over in just a few rounds. Under the siege of Zhou Qing and the Six Spirit Puppets, it was obvious that a Venerable who had transformed into a Yin God could not hold out very well.
A quick victory and a quick resolution is what Zhou Qing himself thinks.
If there were no Six Spirit Puppets and he didn't rely on that ordinary True Blood Puppet, with Zhou Qing's current strength, he would not be a match for the Yin Shen Yibian.
He already has the normal combat power of a Venerable, and it is not impossible for him to even kill a Venerable from the original period, but the gap between each small realm in the True Blood Realm is huge, as can be seen from the fact that Han Tielin was almost killed by Zhang Xinkong after he broke through.
At this time, Zhou Qing was facing a Venerable who was at the level of Refining and Transformation. He could only rely on his own strength to save his life and retreat.
But with the Six Spirit Puppets, everything is completely different. He can walk sideways.
This is also the reason why he thinks he can improve his martial arts realm first to ensure that the source of his heavenly favor does not narrow, because the trip to the grassland does not really require high strength from him.
[…God’s favor: Five]
The hint appeared and Zhou Qing smiled slightly.
Comfortable.
It’s a pity that we don’t know the identity of this barbarian lord. He has no awareness of being a villain at all and doesn’t even introduce himself.
After quickly cleaning up the battlefield, Zhou Qing fled away, regardless of any storms that might arise later.
[Heavenly Favor: Eighteen]
This is the total number of the Barbarian Lord's followers that Zhou Qing has killed now. Compared with when he was in the human territory, the gains after entering the grassland are too great.
This mission was really the right one to take.
In the following time, Zhou Qing continued to rush to the remaining three places, temporarily giving priority to completing the task and obtaining the heavenly favor at the same time.
Time passes and the sun and moon rotate.
In a blink of an eye, it was already three days later.
At this time, Zhou Qing changed into the form of a dragon again.
After he gained the ability, in order to make his own unique characteristics more flawless, he began to pay attention to collecting Taoist techniques from other races. Zhou Qing has been doing this since Tianzhou.
Especially the ethnic Taoism corresponding to the secret martial arts, as well as some special races, are his top priority.
Even after arriving at Xuandu Temple, he did not forget to collect the Taoist magic of other races, and because the platform was broader, he was able to collect more efficiently and conveniently.
Some of the Taoist magic arts are at most Yin Shen Taoism arts, and they do not require the consumption of Xuan Du merit. With Zhou Qing's wealth, there is no problem in purchasing or exchanging them.
Now Zhou Qing can change into a different race, and after the change he can more or less perform some of this race's Taoist magic. Although it is just entry-level, combined with the unique characteristics of Wanhua, it is enough to deceive anyone.
At this time, Zhou Qing was in a forest...
Planting trees.
He has placed four of the five elements treasures given by Shen Yuanning in their corresponding positions, and this sapling is the last one.
Most of the three days were spent on the journey. This broken grassland was really big and the battle line was really long. It took Zhou Qing a lot of time to bypass the barbarian camp.
Dig a hole, plant a tree, fill the hole with soil...
Finally, he recalled the mission and then simply pulled some trees out of the ground.
Zhou Zhishen uproots a weeping willow tree.
After pulling up the trees, he replanted them in other locations.
This is not random, but a requirement in the task content, which requires that the trees near the seedlings be placed in a special orientation and formation.
Zhou Qing guessed that this might be some kind of formation.
After relocating some of the trees to new locations, he then used Taoist magic to "heal" them so that they wouldn't die directly from the move.
Then Zhou Qing took out some special soil and sprinkled some on the roots of each tree near the saplings.
These soils are also items required for the mission.
After everything was done, Zhou Qing cleaned up the place and there didn't seem to be any obvious traces.
Zhou Qing clapped his hands. Done.
This task is really not difficult when arranging the five elements treasures. You can succeed as long as you spend some effort.
If it weren't for the need to come to the grassland, then a team of a flesh-and-skin realm warrior and a visualization monk could accomplish the task.
But the difficulty of this task soared because it required entering the grassland.
"The mission is completed, and I can do my own things later..."
Zhou Qing let out a sigh of relief, feeling relieved as a heavy burden was lifted off his shoulders.
[Heavenly Favor: Twenty-Nine]
After taking a look at the panel, Zhou Qing smiled.
Over the past three days, he had gained eleven points of Heavenly Favor, and now had accumulated a total of twenty-nine points of Heavenly Favor.
As long as he used these Heavenly Favors, he could instantly obtain nearly a month's worth of cultivation merit! In three days, he could accumulate eleven Heavenly Favors, and that was because Zhou Qing killed another Venerable. The remaining six points were all obtained by killing the Manifest Saint Xisui Realm.
Those six points of heavenly favor were not all provided by the barbarian practitioners.
During these three days, Zhou Qing actually met some grassland aliens who wanted to go to the border to join the war.
After meeting them, we told each other our purpose and we hit it off right away.
Then Zhou Qing sent them directly to see the King of Hell, hoping that they would be reborn into a good family in their next life.
This is the only gift Zhou Qing can give them.
But the impact of obtaining these twenty-nine points of heaven's favor is really not small.
Especially the last barbarian elder who was killed by Zhou Qing, the matter has already been known to the barbarian camp.
Then there was a lot of commotion. All patrol teams were retracted, and the frequency of stronger people appearing increased greatly, which greatly affected Zhou Qing.
"Anyway, we've had some pretty good results."
Zhou Qing found a safe place, his soul returned to his body, and then he conveyed his thoughts to the golden finger.
God, speed up! (End of chapter)
