Xu Qiu saw the two men staring at the ice cone intently.

He introduced casually: "Mysterious Ice Physique means that the spiritual energy consumed to trigger these spells is very small, and they can even be cast instantly, which means that they can be triggered without various talismans or spells."

"This kind of physique is very rare in the world. After practicing to the later stage, it can easily freeze thousands of miles. It can be said that this guy is extremely difficult to deal with."

He wondered if the two of them could understand.

But still explained in detail.

However, the two people who heard this felt that their worldview had been completely renewed, as if the door to a new world had been opened, and they had a feeling of sudden enlightenment.

This ice cone has gone beyond the scope of traditional Taoist techniques.

It belongs to the magic of immortals.

Both of them were surprised that Xu Qiu could not only capture souls, but also create ice out of thin air. They believed more and more that Xu Qiu must have been a god in his previous life.

Qin Yumo's clear eyes lit up, and he asked excitedly, "Can I learn it?"

"You can't learn it. You haven't truly cultivated spiritual power yet." Xu Qiu shook his head and poured a basin of cold water on her.

Qin Yumo pouted when he heard that.

It's like eating bitter melon.

frown.

Qin Jianjia's glass-like eyes flickered as she looked at the dagger-like ice cone and asked:

"If I want to learn, what are the requirements?"

She knew that her body was stimulated by some strange energy from Xu Qiu.

A large amount of ice fog can be produced.

So, Xu Qiu showed the ice cone just to show it to her.

Xu Qiu did not hide it: "You need to cultivate spiritual power, just like the energy I just transferred into your body."

Hearing this, Qin Jianjia became distressed.

Because she couldn't cultivate that kind of energy.

At most, it is just energy, because there is no spiritual power as Xu Qiu mentioned in this world.

Then she recalled that Xu Qiu had planted a sacred tree in Qingluan Valley, and asked suspiciously, "So I have to return to Qingluan Valley and cultivate with the seed of that sacred tree?"

"No need. The tree has just sprouted, and there is not much spiritual energy for you to cultivate."

Xu Qiu said simply.

After all, the seeds of the sacred tree have just sprouted, and it will take a long time to gather a large amount of spiritual energy.

Then he took out the broken jade and said, "This thing can be used to make a simple spirit gathering array for you to practice."

However, he just took out this broken jade.

I saw the broken jade emitting a red light, flickering in the dark and occasionally vibrating.

Qin Yumo squinted his eyes and looked at the flickering light, and said, "I feel like Elder Gu seems to be struggling inside."

"Your instinct is good."

Xu Qiu praised.

This broken jade can contain spiritual energy and human souls at the same time. Now the Prime Minister Gu Tianshou keeps struggling, trying to break through this jade.

Xu Qiu released Gu Tianshou's soul.

A pale figure appeared in the dark night sky, floating in the void, with a faint halo that seemed like it would dissipate at any time.

Especially under the pale moonlight, the figure looked even weaker.

When Gu Tianshou's soul appeared.

He immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy, "Master Xianjia, please let me go. I didn't know you were a god, otherwise I wouldn't have provoked the Qin Mansion!"

His whole body was shaking.

Although as a ghost, I won't break out in cold sweat, and I can't sense the temperature around me.

But his limbs were shaking violently.

His eyes were full of fear.

"Didn't you say that you wouldn't let me go even if you became a ghost?" Xu Qiu teased with a smile.

"I dare not, I dare not. I don't know that you are a god who has descended to earth, so I say such nonsense. I deserve to die!"

Gu Tianshou no longer had the courage and ambition of a prime minister, nor did he have the arrogance to be second only to the emperor.

Now he has become as humble as a lowly slave.

Seeing him kneeling and kowtowing, Xu Qiu's soul became much lighter. He crossed his arms and said, "Okay, give me a reason not to refine you."

Gu Tianshou swallowed.

He slowly said, "I know the purpose of the Imperial Master's coming here."

Qin Yumo raised his eyebrows in confusion and said in a matter-of-fact tone: "Isn't it just controlling the entire Daqian, becoming their vassal, and being exploited by them?"

Qin Yumo saw the actions of the two people.

Even more confused, "Isn't it this?"

Xu Qiu simply replied: "This is just incidental. In fact, what Wumen wants is the place where the Daqian royal family was born, which is also their ancestral land and the place where they made their fortune."

He recalled the plot of his previous life.

Daqian was founded nearly two hundred years ago. There was once a woman who was a general. When the country was in ruins, she led her people to flee.

The An family accidentally found the place where the dragon rose, and thus became rich and established the Daqian regime.

In fact, that location was the place where the female general had an epiphany and awakened. After awakening, she became a powerful person in the realm of heaven and man, and thus founded the Daqian Dynasty.

But later generations have never been able to gain enlightenment.

Moreover, after the female general died, her mantle was not passed down and her skills were also lost.

As a result, the entire Daqian royal family gradually became mortals and lost their inheritance.

Gu Tianshou nodded vigorously on the side.

Explained: "The immortal is right. The Wumen is thinking of that dragon's birthplace. It is said that there is a way to awaken divine power there."

"There are also traces of the Goddess Cult. As long as we dig into the Daqian An family's ancestral land in detail, we may be able to find a route map to the Goddess Cult."

Gu Tianshou had just finished speaking.

It was Xu Qiu's turn to stand there in a daze, crossing his arms over his chest, and asked in confusion: "The Goddess Cult?"

He had never heard of this sect.

It didn't even appear in the original story.

Qin Yumo saw his brother-in-law's expression, which was very rare, so he asked, "Brother-in-law, don't you know?"

“Never heard of it.”

Xu Qiu nodded without hiding anything.

Seeing that the opportunity to atone for his sins had come, Gu Tianshou immediately introduced them:

"It is rumored that the Goddess Cult is a more ancient existence than Qingluan Valley. It is even speculated that Qingluan Valley is a small branch of the Goddess Cult."

"The empress who founded Daqian in the past accidentally found the way to the old site of the Goddess Cult in the Dragon's Rise Land, so she was able to obtain the inheritance and buried it in the Dragon's Rise Land."

Xu Qiu listened to him.

It was very unexpected and I fell into deep thought.

He had no impression of what the goddess taught him, but he had visited Qingluan Valley and the Treasure Pavilion.

Before that, there was only that piece of broken jade and the seeds of the sacred tree.

etc……

The Heavenly Spirit Tree! It was one of the three sacred trees. In this low-level martial arts world, the three sacred trees did not exist at all.

The spiritual energy here is so scarce that it's like a desert.

Placing the seeds of the sacred tree here is equivalent to a seed stranded in a wasteland like the moon, without air and water, and can only wait to die.

What if it originally belonged to the Goddess Cult?

What's more, the fact that the Goddess Cult possesses such a thing means that it was once an immortal sect.

"Perhaps keeping you around could be of some use." Xu Qiu sighed.

Gu Tianshou felt as if he had been pardoned. He continued to kneel and kowtow to express his gratitude, "Thank you for your trust, Immortal. Thank you for not killing me."

Xu Qiu had a smile on his face.

However, he had another idea in his heart, [When you lose your value, you will become the nourishment of Broken Jade. It just so happens that the spiritual energy here is scarce and not enough to nourish Broken Jade.]

If you don't remove the roots of the grass, it will grow again in the spring breeze.

Xu Qiu would never do such a stupid thing.

This guy has been causing trouble for me time and time again. Although Xu Qiu is not a petty person, he is not a saint either.

Qin Jianjia and Qin Yumo were speechless when they heard his thoughts.

…

at the same time.

After a great shock to the government and the country, the capital is about to return to peace.

The atmosphere suddenly became weird.

A large number of martial artists from Daqian flocked to the capital, and even people from the surrounding kingdoms came in an endless stream.

For a time, the entire capital was in turmoil, and the number of fights and murders in the city gradually increased.

The number of wounded soldiers in the Imperial Guards and Forbidden Army also began to increase sharply...
