"A spatial treasure of the highest grade spiritual weapon level..."
The old man with white hair and a youthful face stood in the air, feeling the gradually dissipating spatial fluctuations.
Besides looking grim, he was also extremely shocked.
The power of the silver flying boat that just shook off his spatial hand was definitely at the level of a top-grade spiritual weapon.
Even he couldn't own a top-grade spiritual weapon.
The only top-grade spiritual weapon of their Gongshu family had been taken away by their ancestor who was traveling in other big worlds.
As the current patriarch, he is not qualified to be in charge.
And during this period of chasing and moving in space, he was truly certain of it.
This thief wearing a ghost mask is indeed just a Jindan realm cultivator.
Because from beginning to end, he didn't feel the other party exert any power of the Soul Realm.
He is only in the Jindan realm, but he has the power to kill people in the Yuanshen realm, and he also owns a top-grade space spiritual weapon!
Such a ridiculous thing was simply unbelievable to the old man with white hair and a youthful face.
"Could this person be the evil demon who killed Zheng'er back then? No, his spirit and aura are different!"
The old man with white hair and youthful face couldn't help but think of someone.
During the catastrophe at Tianshu Mountain, an evil demon at the Jindan realm killed several people at the Yuanshen realm.
Even Gongshu Zheng, the youngest and most promising member of their Gongshu clan, died tragically at the hands of that evil demon.
This led to all the major forces offering sky-high rewards for the evil demon's head.
Could it be that this time, the evil demon came specifically to take revenge?
But according to what those at the Yuanshen realm said back then, the evil demon's physical body was incredibly powerful, far surpassing that of ordinary Yuanshen realm masters.
However, this mysterious assassin this time seemed to be a pure swordsman. He had amazing sword energy and various cunning methods that made it difficult to guard against him.
The difference between the two is so huge that even the spiritual aura is completely different.
The only thing they have in common is that both of them possess mysterious space magic weapons that allow them to move through space with the cultivation level of the Golden Core Realm.
More importantly, the sword energy displayed by the thief just now was very similar to the secret sword energy of the legendary sword holy land.
"First, there was an evil demon with an incredibly strong body. Now, a sword cultivator who seems to be from the Sky-Breaking Sword Sect has appeared. They can both kill souls with their bodies at the Golden Core stage. They also possess powerful space magic weapons. Could it be that they are from the same mysterious force?"
The old man with white hair and a youthful face was confused and felt worried.
Faintly, he seemed to sense that some great changes were about to happen.
And this time, the assassin openly carried out assassinations in Zhoutian City, killing several powerful souls in a row, and finally left.
This was an extremely heavy blow to the Gongshu family, and it might even affect the next ranking of the thirty-six upper clans.
All these unexpected events made him feel as if a storm was about to come and he felt suffocated.
After a moment of silence in the sky, the old man with white hair and a youthful face sighed, and finally, under the fluctuation of spatial force, his figure suddenly disappeared.
After moving more than ten times, he returned to Zhoutian City.
"Father, what's going on? Where's the thief?"
Seeing his figure appear, the second family head and other ancestors of the Gongshu family hurriedly asked.
Other powerful souls also looked over.
"Let's talk about it when we get back."
The old man with white hair and youthful face did not answer immediately, but flew directly back to the inner city.
The other ancestors of the Gongshu family looked at each other, and a bad feeling arose in their hearts.
However, they did not continue to ask questions and followed the old man with white hair and a youthful face back to the inner city.
Soon, the light curtain rose and the Zhoutian Star Array restarted, covering the entire Zhoutian City.
However, this time, many people in the Soul Realm felt that the suppressive force in the city seemed to have become weaker.
Thinking of the mysterious assassin who had escaped earlier and the head of the Gongshu family who returned empty-handed, many speculations arose in the minds of the Yuanshen realm cultivators in the outer city.
"The assassin escaped and I couldn't catch up."
After opening the Zhoutian Star Array again, the old man with white hair and a youthful face said directly.
"Father, how could it be..."
Although they had already felt it just now, when they heard the old man with white hair and a youthful face actually say it, the ancestors of the Gongshu family could not help but be surprised.
After all, they knew their father's strength very well.
The dignified Five Tribulations Soul also comprehended the way of space and mastered the art of space shifting.
Such strength is considered extremely powerful even among the Five Tribulations Souls.
Now the assassin has escaped. What happened in the process?
"That thief was holding a top-grade spiritual weapon in his hand. He deliberately lured me out, and when no one was disturbing him, he activated the weapon to break through the space and escaped.
Although I have comprehended the power of space, the distance of the space teleportation technique I have mastered is limited, so I can no longer pursue it."
The old man with white hair and a youthful face did not hide anything and told everything.
A top-grade spiritual weapon, and also a space magic weapon!
After hearing this, the ancestors of the Gongshu family were shocked, but they finally understood why their father failed to capture the assassin.
The distance that a top-grade spiritual weapon can move in space must be extremely far, and it is not impossible for it to even break through the boundary membrane of the Tianyuan world.
It was only natural that my father had no way to continue tracking the matter.
However, they failed to catch the assassin, and this time their reputation as Gongshu family would probably suffer a considerable blow.
Thinking of this, the ancestors of the Gongshu family could already foresee what kind of waves would be stirred up in the outside world after what happened in Zhoutian City today was spread.
I'm afraid that all kinds of rumors that are unfavorable to them, the public servants, will spread out.
"I know what you're thinking, but that's secondary. I have something more important to tell you now, so please listen carefully."
The old man with white hair and a youthful face knew what they were thinking just by looking at their faces.
He thought of the suffocating feeling he had sensed in the dark, and said with a serious expression.
Seeing their father's solemn expression, the other ancestors of the Gongshu family were startled and their faces also became serious.
No one knew what the ancestors of the Gongshu family discussed in the end, but on this day, the guards of Zhoutian City became strict.
It is no longer possible to enter and exit freely, but everyone entering and exiting must have an identification certificate, otherwise they will be treated as a demon.
On a relatively remote street, the owner of a medicine shop was surprised to find that the weapon refining shop across the street had never opened again.
…
Somewhere high in the sky, tens of thousands of miles away from Zhoutian City, spanning countless continents.
A space vortex suddenly appeared, and then a silver flying boat emerged from it.
Lu Qing's figure flew out of the flying boat. After quickly putting away the void flying boat, he activated the teleportation jade talisman several times again, then found a forest, flew down to find a cave, restrained his breath and hid himself.
After a long time, seeing that there was no movement outside, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He was naturally not worried that the old ghost of Gongshu would catch up with him.
With the power of the Void Flying Boat, a top-grade spiritual weapon, and the distance it can jump, even a powerful being who has experienced the fifth tribulation of the soul cannot catch up.
What he was worried about was that the fluctuations of the Void Flying Boat would attract the attention of some powerful beings here.
Although the probability is very small, he still cautiously chose a safer method.
Now that I saw that there was no movement outside, I knew that I was not that unlucky, and I finally relaxed.
"This time it was really embarrassing."
After confirming that it was truly safe, Lu Qing couldn't help but laugh.
Perhaps in the eyes of the Gongshu family, this time he sneaked into Zhoutian City, assassinated Gongshu Lian, killed several Yuanshen realm masters with his sword, played tricks on a group of Gongshu family ancestors, and even escaped from the hands of a Five Tribulations Yuanshen master.
He is very cunning and scheming.
But only Lu Qing knew that every step he took was actually very risky, and if he made any mistake, he would be discovered.
In other words, he dared to act so risky because he had the powerful trump card of the secret realm stone tablet in his hand.
Otherwise, even if he had the courage, he would not dare to carry out such a high-profile assassination under the noses of a group of powerful souls whose realm is far superior to his.
Fortunately, although this trip was risky, the rewards were huge.
Lu Qing's mind swept across the Lihuo Ding and Qiankun Yiqi Bag, and his mood began to cheer up.
He first scattered dozens of jade talismans and set up a formation to conceal his aura, and then released Xiao Li.
"Ah, Ah Qing, I, I saw a lot of spirit stones in the Lihuo Cauldron!"
As soon as Xiao Li came out, he immediately rushed to Lu Qing and shouted with a stammering voice.
"I got that from Gongshu's treasure house. There are not only the Lihuo Ding, but also a lot of spirit stones in the Qiankun Yiqi Bag." Lu Qing said with a smile.
Previously, in order to empty the treasure house of the second branch of the Gongshu family as quickly as possible, Lu Qing directly activated his two major spiritual weapons to collect the treasures.
Now, there are many treasures in the Lihuo Ding and Qiankun Yiqi Bag respectively.
"There's still some in the Qiankun Qi Bag! Ah Qing, did you steal Gongshu's treasure trove?"
Xiao Li's eyes suddenly widened.
Lu Qing was very cautious in this assassination. In order to hide his aura, he even restrained the fluctuations of the Lihuo Ding.
So Xiao Li didn't know what had happened in Zhoutian City before.
"It's just the treasure house of one of the direct descendants, not the largest treasure house of Gongshu family."
Lu Qing explained.
"It's not all the spirit stones owned by Gongshu family?" Xiao Li was even more surprised.
It was already shocked when it saw the mountain of spirit stones in the Lihuo Ding.
Unexpectedly, it was just a spiritual stone in one of Gongshu's treasure houses.
"I didn't expect this Gongshujia to be so wealthy. Let's go in and take a look."
Lu Qing looked at the cave in front of him, then thought of the number of spirit stones in the Lihuo Ding and Qiankun Yiqi Bag, and finally decided to go in and count them.
"Okay, okay!"
Xiao Li became excited.
It had just been rolling around on the Spirit Stone Mountain and hadn't had enough fun yet, so Ah Qing let it out, and naturally it wanted to go in and play again.
Immediately, Lu Qing took Xiao Li into the Lihuo Cauldron again.
In the spiritual weapon space, a figure was standing in a daze in front of a "hill" that exuded a strong spiritual aura. Who else could it be but "Yan".
"Owner."
As soon as Lu Qing entered the spiritual weapon space, "Yan" sensed it and immediately came to meet him.
As for Xiao Li, he fell onto the Lingshi Mountain again and started rolling around.
Suddenly, the spirit stones began to scatter, making the spiritual aura in the spirit weapon space even more intense.
"Master, our harvest this time is really huge."
"Yan" couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene.
Compared to Xiao Li, it knew where these spirit stones came from. After all, it also helped Lu Qing when he was raiding the treasure house.
"Yeah, I didn't expect the harvest this time would be so big."
Lu Qing looked at the small hill of spirit stones and felt a little excited.
When he sneaked into the inner city, he had not even thought of robbing Gong Shu's treasure house.
Finally, it was from Qiao Rong's soul memory that he learned of the existence of the treasure house, which gave him a sudden idea.
However, I didn't expect that this sudden idea would become the biggest gain of this trip.
"Yan, have you counted how many spirit stones are here?"
Although there are many other treasures in the treasure house, for Lu Qing, what he values most now is the spirit stone.
After all, this concerns whether he can quickly break through the limit and step into the magical realm above the ninth level of the Golden Elixir.
“It’s been counted.”
Yan nodded slightly.
Although there are many spirit stones here, as the spirit of the Lihuo Ding, it has free control over the spiritual space. It is not easy to count the treasures.
"There are a total of 383,546 medium-grade spirit stones here."
"Three hundred and eighty thousand..."
Even though Lu Qing was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but gasp when he heard this number.
There is no way, the number is simply too huge.
Moreover, there is a batch of spirit stones in the Qiankun Yiqi bag. Although not as many as those in the Lihuo Ding, if they are added together, it will be a considerable number.
You know, his original goal was only 100,000 medium-grade spirit stones, but this time, he was able to achieve his goal several times more.
How could Lu Qing not be shocked by this?
"Now, I finally don't have to worry about spirit stones for a long time."
Lu Qing was excited.
With this amount of spirit stones, he can not only break through the limit but also step into the realm of the ninth level of the Golden Elixir.
Even after achieving the Yuanshen, or even for a period of time after achieving the Yuanshen, you probably won’t have to worry about the lack of spirit stones.
"The Gongshu family is truly wealthy. Just the treasury of the second branch of the direct lineage has collected so many spirit stones. How rich would the Gongshu family's true treasury be?"
Lu Qing couldn't help but fantasize.
But this time, Lu Qing was wrong.
He didn't know that among the several direct descendants of the Gongshu family, the second branch was famous for its business acumen. Not only did it have many industries under its name, it was also good at earning spirit stones.
That’s why there are so many spirit stones treasured in the treasury.
If it were the treasure house of other families, it would be good if they could have one tenth of the spirit stones here.
However, Lu Qing’s surprise did not end there.
At this moment, "Yan" stretched out his hand and a treasure box appeared in his hand. (End of this chapter)
