History repeated itself once again, but this time, because Li Xiu's identity was different, Old Man Wu did not ask him to escape with Xiao Bu'er.
After seeing the Black Knight being smashed to death by the cloaked man, Old Man Wu picked up Xiao Bu'er and ran towards the city gate in another direction.
The residents in the square rushed forward to stop the cloaked man.
boom!
The cloaked man's tombstone slammed heavily to the ground, and the black ripples instantly blew away the residents who were rushing towards him from all directions.
Among them were beings of the level of the Blind Tailor. Under the horrific shock wave, those residents had no power to fight back at all. They were blown away one by one, and after hitting the wall, they vomited blood, struggling but unable to get up.
Old Man Wu was shocked and angry, but he didn't look back. He ran away quickly with Xiaobuer in his arms.
In just the next second, the cloaked man appeared out of nowhere in front of Old Man Wu. He placed the tombstone on the ground, stretched out a hand, and pointed the finger wearing a black glove at the center of Old Man Wu's eyebrows.
Old Man Wu was sprinting at full speed and couldn't stop at all. He just used the technique of Hadouken, and a sonic boom ripple appeared between his eyebrows.
However, the sonic boom wave did not have any effect. The cloaked man pressed a finger on his forehead, and with a bang, Old Man Wu's head exploded. The headless corpse fell backwards, and Xiao Bu'er, who was in his arms, was grabbed by the neck by the cloaked man's other hand.
Just as the cloaked man grabbed Xiao Bu'er, Li Xiu suddenly appeared behind Xiao Bu'er and also put a hand on Xiao Bu'er.
Li Xiu's gaze passed by Xiao Bu'er's face and met the eyes of the cloaked man.
Those were a pair of black eyes, with black pupils filling the eye sockets and no whites visible. Yet, within the black pupils, there was actually a strange white light flowing.
The trajectory of the flowing white light looks like a Tai Chi pattern.
Li Xiu's eyes turned completely white, and his spiritual consciousness shone through his eyes.
Ghost covering my eyes!
Almost at the same time as the ghost blindfold was used, streaks of light appeared on the palm that was pressing on Xiao Bu'er, and the light energy in Xiao Bu'er's body immediately flowed through his palms towards Li Xiu's body.
Using Xiao Buer as a bridge, Li Xiu used the bottle to absorb the light energy of that monster crazily.
Endless light energy poured into Li Xiu's body, as vast as the ocean, and it was impossible to predict how much light energy there was.
The cloaked man's eyes met Li Xiu's. The white light in his eyes became brighter and brighter, and actually turned into a white Tai Chi halo in his black pupils.
Li Xiu looked solemn. Even with the ghost covering his eyes, he couldn't control the cloaked man and couldn't make him loosen his hand that was pinching Xiao Bu'er's neck.
Li Xiu could only burst out his spiritual consciousness frantically, but his spiritual consciousness seemed to be absorbed by the Tai Chi halo, and he could not control the cloaked man at all.
Blood was oozing out of Li Xiu's eyes, nose, and ears. It was a sign that his spiritual consciousness was over-exploding and his brain and body could not bear it.
Li Xiu's spiritual consciousness was too strong, but his body was not strong enough, and his super spiritual body could not withstand such an outburst of spiritual consciousness.
The cloaked man stared at Li Xiu with an evil gaze and slowly raised his other hand. It was obvious that his will was still affected by the ghost's blindfold, otherwise he would not have raised his hand so slowly.
If Li Xiu's body could be stronger, allowing his spiritual awareness to explode to a greater extent, perhaps he would be able to control the cloaked man.
But there is no maybe in the world. The cloaked man raised his hand, and a terrifying demonic light burst out from it, swallowing Li Xiu like an evil spirit.
Li Xiu was madly absorbing the cloaked man's light energy through Xiao Bu'er's body, but even so, the light energy bursting out from the cloaked man's palm was still extremely terrifying. It was a terrifying force that Li Xiu could not bear.
A strange halo appeared in Li Xiu's eyes, and his other hand also moved forward, forming a halo in front of his palm, which absorbed the magic light emitted by the cloaked man.
The fourth stage of the super spiritual skill Four Sacred Pupils, the terrifying magic light rushed into the light circle, and the light circle was like a black hole, sucking the magic light in, and it was unknown where it was transferred to.
As he watched his magic light being sucked away by the halo, the smile on the cloaked man's face became even more evil.
Not only did he not stop the burst of magic light, but it burst even more crazily. The light circle was actually burst, and endless magic light bombarded Li Xiu's body.
Snap!
A golden light flashed on Li Xiu's body, and a golden table knife flew out and stabbed Xiao Bu'er in the back.
With Xiao Bu'er's death, Li Xiu felt a black screen before his eyes. When he came to his senses, he was back in his room.
Blood was oozing from his seven orifices and blood was gushing out of his mouth. His head was buzzing and he felt a splitting headache. Those were the sequelae of the excessive outburst of spiritual consciousness.
The golden dinner knife floated in front of Li Xiu, the blade trembled, and made a strange human-like voice: "It was a close call, I almost couldn't come back."
"Do you know who that cloaked man is?" Li Xiu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, endured the stabbing pain coming from his brain, and asked while staring at the golden dinner knife.
"I don't know. I've never seen him, nor have I heard of him. But he is very strong. If I were not trapped in this dinner knife, I should be able to fight him, but it's hard to say who will win." The Golden Dinner Knife continued, "Don't go there again, or invite that master here. Only that master can kill him."
"Does that place really exist? Why does it end after killing Xiao Bu'er?" Li Xiu asked.
He had already guessed that Xiao Bu'er was the key to the City of Love, but he just didn't want to use such means.
"Don't ask me, I don't know either. I have never been to that city and I don't know where it is." The Golden Knife replied.
Li Xiu had no choice but to turn around and look for the tablet of the God of Death. He saw it standing on the table with a line of words on it.
"If you want to know the truth, just kill that person, and you will naturally understand everything."
Then, no matter how much Li Xiu asked, the tablet of the God of Death remained motionless, and no words appeared on it.
Li Xiu frowned and thought. Now that he knew that the City of Love could be restored again, he just needed to find a way to kill the cloaked man.
According to the Golden Knife, if he had not been trapped, he should have been able to fight, which means that the cloaked man should be a god-level existence.
After this battle, Li Xiu knew that his own strength was far from enough. Although he didn't necessarily have to reach the god level to kill the cloaked man, he had to make his body stronger, at least to be able to withstand a greater burst of spiritual consciousness.
The ghost covering his eyes can affect the cloaked man. As long as his body is stronger, he can control the cloaked man with his spiritual consciousness.
Without asking any more questions, Li Xiu packed up his things and prepared to go back to Changshengtian. He wanted to improve his physical fitness as soon as possible, and then go to the City of Love to find out what was going on.
There is no point in going to the City of Love until you have enough strength.
This time, those who followed Li Xiu to Changshengtian included Sha Chu, Chu Jun, Chu Qi, Ximen Guan and A Fei. The City of Light was temporarily handed over to the Ye brothers and sisters.
"President, did you build the city here because of King Gai Shi, or because of the City of Black Death and the City of Love?" Li Xiu kept thinking about this question on the way.
He increasingly felt that it would not be that easy for the president to build the City of Light.
If one wants to join Changshengtian, the Blood Seal Stone is essential. Fortunately, Li Xiu can hold the Blood Seal Stone of Chu Jun and others in his own hands, so there will be no problem.
As the chief executive, Li Xiu distributed invitation cards to Chu Jun and several others, all of which were super membership cards.
The general manager has only ten super membership cards that can be issued, which means that he can only invite ten super members, but he has a lot of ordinary membership invitation cards.
Ordinary members basically don’t have too many benefits, but super members do have benefits, but naturally there can’t be too many.
"Is this the Eternal Heaven?" Chu Jun and his companions were shocked by the strange and spectacular scenery of Gyro Mountain when they came here for the first time.
"I didn't expect that after so many years, I would come back here again." Ximen Guan said with some emotion.
Led by Li Xiu, the group easily entered Changsheng City. After completing the initiation ceremony at the Temple of Heaven, Li Xiu took them to Courtyard No. 7 and simply assigned them rooms.
Chu Jun couldn't wait to go to the gem market with Chu Qi. With the financial support of a large company, Changshengtian was like a fish in water for him.
Sha Chu took A Fei to familiarize himself with the environment of Changsheng City, while Li Xiu took Ximen Guan to the Magic Equipment Research Institute.
"Chief, you're back?" Lei Qingfeng and Qiu Tianyu saw Li Xiu and hurriedly came forward to greet him.
"Where is Professor Xu?" Li Xiu asked.
"We are still researching new multi-core magic equipment." Qiu Tianyu replied.
The research institute nowadays is no longer the nursing home it used to be. The old researchers are like they have been given a shot of chicken blood. They are researching super-spiritual-level magic armor that can be used by ordinary S-level magic armor masters. They are all very motivated.
After arriving inside the laboratory, Ximen Guan kept looking at the instruments in the laboratory.
"General Manager." Professor Xu and several senior researchers who were discussing the multi-core magic equipment plan saw Li Xiu coming in and quickly stood up to greet him.
"Please professor, I have found a colleague for you. He will be the consultant of our institute in the future." Li Xiu pointed at Ximen Guan and said.
"Consultant?" Professor Xu was slightly startled and couldn't help but look Ximen Guan up and down.
Several other researchers also frowned secretly, and Lei Qingfeng and Qiu Tianyu also looked confused.
The position of consultant can be big or small, and can be said to be dispensable. Some consultants are just a decoration and have no say at all, while some consultants have great authority and even the power to supervise and make decisions.
Li Xiu found a consultant for them at this time. Not to mention the old researchers, even Lei Qingfeng and Qiu Tianyu felt a little uncomfortable.
"Director, don't you believe in the research and development capabilities of our institute?" An old man with a bad temper spoke directly.
"Of course I believe in your R&D capabilities. The main reason I invited him here is to provide more R&D ideas," said Li Xiu.
"Chief, what we need is not R&D ideas, but resources. As long as we have resources, we can create any magic equipment." said another old man.
Li Xiu wanted to say something else, but Ximen Guan walked over, stood in front of the table, and looked at the drawings and data on the table.
Li Xiu didn't say anything else, just watched quietly. If Ximen Guan wanted to gain a foothold in the research institute, it would depend on his own abilities. In this regard, Li Xiu was quite confident in him.
Ximen Guan picked up the pen on the table, took the drawing, and started writing and drawing on it.
"What are you doing!" An old man was furious and wanted to stop Ximen Guan, but was stopped by Professor Xu.
Everyone watched Ximen Guan write and draw on the blueprint quietly. Many places were directly modified, designed and parameterized by him.
Originally, the old researchers were very angry and disapproving, but after watching for a while, the expressions on their faces became a little serious.
"So the construction of the Second Bridge Transformation System can be used in this way?"
"This parameter design is increased tenfold, so there should be problems with transmission. However, this loop diversion method is a bit strange. In theory, it should be able to solve the transmission problem. I wonder what the actual effect is?"
The old guys were more and more surprised as they looked at it, while Professor Xu kept looking at Ximen Guan, as if he was thinking about something.
"Am I qualified to be a consultant?" After revising the drawings, Ximen Guan put down his pen, looked at them and asked.
Before the old men could say anything, Professor Xu suddenly walked up to Ximen Guan and asked respectfully, "Excuse me, is your last name Ximen?"
"Yes, my surname is Ximen and my given name is Guan." Ximen Guan said sanctimoniously.
The three words "Ximen Guan" seemed to have great magic. When Ximen Guan said his name, those old researchers all opened their mouths wide.
Lei Qingfeng and Qiu Tianyu were completely confused. They didn't know what was going on. Is this old man named Ximen Guan very famous?
"It's really you!" Professor Xu walked up to Ximen Guan excitedly and held Ximen Guan's hand.
Professor Xu, who was always known for his steadiness, said excitedly like a little fanboy chasing a star: "It was because of you that I embarked on the path of magic equipment research. I originally thought that after joining Changshengtian, I would be able to follow you to study magic equipment, but I didn't expect that my wish would not come true. Now I can meet you, it's really great... so great..."
Several veteran researchers also gathered around, and each of them excitedly shook hands with Ximen Guan in turn, expressing their admiration.
Lei Qingfeng and Qiu Tianyu were both stunned. They had never seen anyone who could make these stubborn old men show such expressions.
Even Professor Xu was like this, which made them even more curious about the identity of Ximen Guan.
"Chief, who is that old man?" Lei Qingfeng asked Li Xiu in a low voice.
"You are from the Magic Equipment Research Institute, but you don't even know Ximen Guan's name?" Li Xiu said with a smile.
"It sounds familiar, but I can't remember where it is." Lei Qingfeng scratched his head.
"Haven't you heard of the name of the Father of Magic Armor?" Li Xiu said.
"Ah!" Lei Qingfeng was shocked and looked at Ximen Guan in disbelief, exclaiming, "Ximen Guan, the father of the magic suit, didn't he die a long time ago?"
"Xiaofeng, what are you talking about?" Professor Xu glared at him, then waved to Lei Qingfeng and Qiu Tian over.
"Teacher Ximen, these are my two untalented disciples..."
When Li Xiu left, Ximen Guan was not with him. He was dragged away by Professor Xu and others to study magic equipment. No one paid any attention to him, so Li Xiu had to go back alone.
"The Evil Spirit Card is already super powerful, next is the Forbidden Spear." Li Xiu was thinking in his mind how to improve his level as quickly as possible.
The step of super-soul must be completed first. Even if the symbiotic contract is not used as the foundation, preparations must be made for the symbiotic contract itself to be promoted to the light basis.
Li Xiu looked through the information in Changshengtian and had already selected several trial sites. He just had to wait for the Forbidden Spear to become super-effective. Then he could enter those trial sites to hunt down evil spirits and quickly increase his level.
Li Xiu still has a lot of resources in his hands, and he plans to go to the gem market and directly buy a super spiritual gem.
Although the super spiritual gem is precious, it is not priceless in Changshengtian. As long as you have enough money, you can still buy it.
Coming to the gem market alone, he knew that there were definitely no super-spiritual gems on the ordinary stalls, so he did not wander around aimlessly, but went directly to the largest gem store, “Baoguang Pavilion”.
As soon as I walked into the store, a beautiful female salesperson came to greet me.
"Welcome, Mr. Li, to Baoguang Pavilion." The female salesperson recognized Li Xiu at a glance and gave him a warm welcome.
"I want a super spiritual sapphire." Li Xiu said.
"I can't make the decision on gems of this level. Mr. Li, please go to the VIP room on the second floor to rest for a while. I'll call the boss over right away." The female salesperson quickly took Li Xiu to a private room on the second floor and had someone serve tea.
"Why would Li Xiu come to our store to buy super spiritual gems?" In the office, Mo Wuya looked at the old immortal with some confusion after listening to the report of the female salesperson.
"If he doesn't come here to buy, where else can he go? Most of the gem veins outside are controlled by us. All major gem merchants and mine owners have cooperated with us. Apart from us, he really has nowhere else to go." The old man said proudly.
"What I mean is, why doesn't he kill the evil spirit and get the super spirit gem." Mo Wuya said.
"He must want to use the Earth's super spiritual gemstone to become super spiritual. Is there any need to say that?" After the old man finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something and continued, "He wants the super spiritual sapphire. Do we have any in stock in our store now?"
"There are two super spiritual sapphires, but you also know that there are some problems with both of them." Mo Wuya said.
"I remember now, one of the sapphires was dug out from Sri Lanka?" the old man thought for a while and said.
"Yes, but that one is a purple sapphire, not a pure sapphire." Mo Wuya pondered and said, "The other one is a padparadscha-colored super-spiritual sapphire, which is also not a pure sapphire."
"I remember the padparadscha-colored supernatural sapphire should not be for sale, right?" said the old immortal.
"I want to sell it, but someone has to be willing to buy it." Mo Wuya said helplessly, "Everyone knows that there is something wrong with the Padparadscha Sapphire. Who would dare to buy it?"
"Everyone else knows it, but Li Xiu may not know it. Maybe today is our lucky day. Take out the two super spiritual gems and I will go talk to Li Xiu." The old immortal's eyes lit up.
