It is said that in the underground black market of Duyou City, the purple placenta of Lujing is the most effective auxiliary item for Haoran realm cultivators to break through Tianzhi realm, and it may even be the only one.

Gui once mentioned to Zhao Rong that if the Fuyao Realm is to lay the foundation for the Dantian meridians and prepare for the Haoran Realm to draw the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which is what Confucianism calls Haoran Qi into the body; then the Tianzhi Realm is to form a unique closed little world in the Dantian after sensing certain regular patterns of the outside world.

This small world is separated from the outside world, but it is closely related to the outside world.

As the largest creature in the North Sea, the body of the mother whale is equivalent to a small world. The placenta when it is pregnant with its cubs is the bridge connecting the small world inside the body with the big world outside.

This "bridge" is a product of the creation of heaven and earth. It is extremely effective for cultivators who want to break through the Tianzhi realm, but it is something that can only be encountered by chance.

"Didn't this whale hide in the deep sea of ​​the North Sea in the past? Why did it appear in a large herd migrating in the middle and near seas?"

Behind Ji Qian, a student from the government office asked in confusion.

The crowd calmed down a bit, and someone nodded and said, "I have read a book about strange beasts in the North Sea. It says that female harpoon whales do not give birth in the deep sea, but chase thunderclouds to give birth..."

"It will leave the deep sea first, float to the surface midway, soar up, swim to the Ninth Heaven Sea of ​​Clouds, and give birth to its offspring in the midst of the thunder with the strongest yang energy."

"The female scorpion whale that was discovered at the moment might have mistaken the herd of animals that blocked out the sun on the sea surface for a dark thundercloud when it emerged from the deep sea, and chased them all the way to the near sea. There have been such cases before... Haha, this scorpion whale's spiritual awareness is indeed immature, what a pity for such a treasure."

"Isn't this just in time? This treasure comes just in time."

A student who was closest to Ji Qianyi interrupted and said with a smile, "God is helping Senior Brother Qianyi. Since the news of the Purple River Placenta has been released today, it means that no powerful figure has reserved it. The big chambers of commerce in the city will just raise the price and sell it. It will appear in the auction house in a few days. If Senior Brother Qianyi wants it, it will be easy for him to get it."

These students have all witnessed the background revealed in Ji Qianyi's daily gestures, for example, the "ancient books" he used to casually flip through, which contained a wide variety of fine poems and lyrics, whose value is inestimable.

In Zhao Rong's words, it was the aura of a wealthy dog ​​owner. No wonder a large group of people followed him around all day long to get free meals.

Ji Qianyi did not respond when he heard this, his expression remained unchanged.

The Han apprentice sister looked at his back, then turned around and said righteously, "I heard that the merchant companies that went out to sea had many cases of ripping open the bellies of female animals to take treasures alive. We and the whales are both creatures of heaven and earth, how cruel is this method."

Ji Qian raised his chin slightly and said succinctly: "Borrowing objects to break through the realm, taking advantage of opportunities."

"That's right, Senior Brother Ji, do you still need this thing? He is gifted but not arrogant or impatient, and he climbs the mountain step by step. This is the path that the top geniuses of our Taiqing Mansion should take. This kind of broken mirror that damages one's virtue should be left to the second-generation rich children kept by the immortal families and wealthy families."

Junior Sister Han sneered.

"...Exactly, absolutely."

"Haha, that's right. Senior Brother Ji, why would you need this? The Tianzhi Realm is already within reach."

"This is what Senior Brother Ji is like..."

Everyone smelled the slightly bloody midday breeze. Although many students were still worried in their hearts, they all responded verbally.

Ji Qianyi shook his head slightly, showing a helpless expression.

However, he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

Behind him, the dull servant who temporarily replaced Yunzi had a calm expression throughout, like a wooden man without any emotions.

At this moment, Ji Qian, who was leading the way in front, suddenly stopped smiling.

"Hey, that's... Senior Sister Zhao? And... and the new Junior Sister Qian'er who entered Xiaoyao Mansion."

"What a coincidence that you came back from the foot of the mountain? Why did you bring..." The voice paused, "brought that kid..." The voice gradually faded away.

The students in the rear also noticed the two women... and one man walking towards them.

The atmosphere became quiet.

Ji Qian in front had a calm expression and did not look away.

He led the quiet crowd to move forward.

So the two groups met in the middle of the road.

Then,

The steps remain unchanged,

Passing by.

A patch of off-season green woods next to it made a rustling sound in the wind.

Zhao Rong seemed not to notice the passers-by at all. He took Zhao Lingfei and Xiao Qian'er's hands and walked away calmly.

Concubine Zhao Lingfei, who was being held by her husband, also ignored Ji Qian and the others. Only Xiao Qian'er glanced at them when they crossed each other's paths just now.

However, after passing each other, Concubine Zhao Lingfei, who had been staring at her husband, glanced sideways and observed the expression of her husband in front of her.

And the other side.

Ji Qianyi looked straight ahead the whole time and did not look at the handsome scholar with a graceful figure or the cyan-gold figure he was holding tightly.

Many other students in the mansion couldn't help but look back at Concubine Zhao Ling, whose skirt was very eye-catching and elegant, after passing by Zhao Rong and the other two.

The two groups just passed by.

No surprises occurred.

This made the students in the prefecture, who had just been discussing the real culprit, feel a sense of pity and relief at the same time.

"This direction is to lead us to Nanci Academy, right? What are we going there for?" You Fusheng turned around and asked casually.

"Who knows, maybe they will go back to Qinglianxuan to continue being together."

Junior Sister Han ignored them and turned around to ask directly:

"Is this man Zhao Ziyu? The childhood sweetheart of Concubine Zhao Ling? Oh, besides being handsome..." She paused and organized her words, "like... like a pretty boy, I don't think he's as good as some of the brothers said before."

She was puzzled: "Is he really the one-word teacher of Senior Sister Liu? Can he use one word to change a flower-falling skill?"

A student from the prefecture who was present at the Lanxi Gathering that day shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. After all, it's just a change of one character. It's not ruled out that he was just lucky... But, did he become whiter?" He sounded puzzled.

Actually, there are still some questions that have not been asked.

"Oh." Junior Sister Han, who had never seen Zhao Rong's appearance before his disfigurement, nodded directly, "It seems that he is really a pretty boy. Well, sometimes a good-looking face can really please some short-sighted women." After saying this, she curled her lips deliberately.

"..." Several students from the prefecture who had participated in the Lanxi Yaji before couldn't help but look at each other. They always felt that something was wrong, but they couldn't put their finger on it for a while.

Hey, did someone secretly become more handsome after going down the mountain?

After all, both parties were just passing by briefly, and everyone's attention was quickly diverted away from this.

Junior Sister Han continued to tease, "Let's not talk about the quality of poetry for now. Just look at the cultivation level of Senior Sister Zhao's husband. Well, it seems that they can't even meet the conditions for practicing the Taoist couple method, so it can't help Senior Sister Zhao's cultivation at all. Could it be that besides his face, he has some powerful academy teacher to support him?"

One of the students shook his head and said, "I asked a good friend of mine who is also a scholar in the academy before. He has a wide network of contacts among the scholars in the academy. I asked him if he knew this Zhao Ziyu, but he said he had no impression of him. So it seems that he is not a famous figure in the academy."

"What are you guessing about? There are only a few places for the entire Linlu Academy. The scholars who can 'kill' from the crowd of thousands of soldiers must be outstanding people whose cultivation is comparable to the geniuses of our academy..."

All the students in the prefecture shook their heads and laughed.

At this moment, a student who had been silent all this time suddenly said, "I seem to have heard from several senior sisters in Xiaoyao Mansion that once, after being pestered for a long time in private, Senior Sister Zhao told them..."

"The cup of wine she drank in the mysterious Xia Chong Zhai that allowed her flying sword to ascend to the first rank...was won by her husband from the head shopkeeper of Xia Chong Zhai."

The laughter around suddenly stopped.
