Xu Qing returned, opened his transmission jade slip as soon as possible, and informed Zixuan Shangxian.
This is the request of the Eight Sects Alliance to him and Chen Erniu on the way to the county capital.
After all, in a foreign land, there will always be risks, and Zi Xuan's real task in sitting in charge of the sect is to add a layer of protection to the sword bearers of the Eight Sects Alliance.
At this moment, the transmission was over, Xu Qing returned to his Sword Pavilion, and did not step into it immediately but checked the surroundings to make sure that there was no trace of passivity in the arrangement before leaving, and then walked in.
This is his habit, an instinct that has been engraved in his bones.
In the Sword Pavilion, Xu Qing took a deep breath, recalled the entire process of this mission, and analyzed whether he had done anything wrong, until night fell outside and he finished the review.
It's just that the dying young man lying in the lore formation in his mind was very deep in his memory.
"His father should be the real ...... of the dark son," Xu Qing murmured.
He didn't know if the mysterious secret son had turned the boy into an abandoned son and became one of the smokes that covered his traces.
Or is there more to it like a teenager?
Or, the dark child chose to become a target himself, to cover the information he really wanted to transmit, and hid it from others.
Everything is unknown.
Xu Qing was silent for a while, shook his head, and then remembered the Eight Palaces Black-clad Guard who was killed by him.
"With my current combat strength, I can kill the Eighth Palace Monk at any cost, but if the Nine Palaces say...... It's difficult." Xu Qing pondered, he knew that the combat power of the Eight Palaces was basically the limit of most of the Four Fires qualifications.
Of course, there may be more demonic beings in it, although they have not opened the 121st Orifice, but they have mastered two emperor-level techniques, or they may have a life lamp.
This type of person has the possibility of the combat power of the Nine Palaces.
"In addition, those monks who have reached the limit of the Heavenly Palace will most likely try to break through and step into the primordial infant from the golden elixir." Xu Qing's eyes showed a deep thought.
The primordial infant is not so easy to break through, so many golden pills that have reached the extreme are in the state of turning into a baby, and the process is somewhat mysterious, so most of the outside world calls this type of monk a half-step primordial infant or a fake baby.
The combat power of this fake baby Xu Qing also made a judgment through this mission.
"Beyond the Eighth and Nine Palaces, infinitely close to the Ten Heavenly Palaces!"
"I'm still too weak, I have to speed up my practice, and I also have to go to the Demon Transformation Sect as soon as possible to learn the Demon Transformation Technique." Xu Qing felt that if his analysis was correct, the demon transformation technique could transform the ghost emperor of his sea of consciousness to a certain extent.
"I don't know how much the ghost emperor can bless me after he transforms." Xu Qing's heart rose with anticipation.
"I hope everything goes well, then maybe I can have one more in the Heavenly Palace in the future...... Ghost Emperor's Palace!"
"My limit is ten heavenly palaces, and now I have completed five, and the remaining five...... The Sword Palace can be counted as one, if this Ghost Emperor Palace can, there are only three choices left."
Xu Qing thought for a while.
"By the way, there is also the natal mosasaurus."
Xu Qing took a deep breath and ended his analysis and thinking.
"Then the most urgent thing in front of me now is military merit, I took half a month off before, and now there are still seven days, so there is no point in going back early."
Xu Qing's eyes showed longing, learning the trick of turning demons requires military merit, and going to Chaoxia Mountain requires military merit.
Everything is inseparable from military merit.
"There should be a lot of military merit in this mission, but it's not ...... enough" Xu Qing took out the command sword and began to search for the tasks inside, and soon found a capture mission in the county capital.
He checked his injuries, and then walked out of the Sword Pavilion to earn military merit.
Time passed like this day by day.
Regarding the follow-up of their mission, Xu Qing had never heard anyone mention it.
He didn't know who the real dark son was, nor did he know if the other party was successfully picked up.
Everything came to an end with the end of the mission.
Seven days later, Xu Qing, who was immersed in earning military merits, received an urging from the Criminal Prison Department and his vacation ended.
So he could only stop the action of earning military merit during the day, and went to the Prison Department on duty early in the morning of that day.
Walking on the steps of the Criminal Prison Division, Xu Qing felt the familiar coldness, greeted the few jailers in District Ding he met, and was still thinking about military merit in his heart.
Until he reached the door of Ding Yi32's prison, he pushed open the cell door and walked in.
I haven't been here for half a month, and the prisoners here are no different from before.
The cloud beast was still eating tentacles, the human race woman was still coaxing the scarecrow to sleep in her arms, the old man of the Danqing tribe shouted good morning with a cordial look in his eyes, and the grinding plate was also turning, only the head was there, the eyelids rolled, and he sighed.
"It's just been half a month, why are you back again."
Xu Qing, as usual, checked the prisoners one by one expressionlessly, and then returned to the place where he had been meditating.
Today, he didn't see the little boy.
This situation is a bit abnormal, in his memory, every time he came, the little boy was the first to appear.
"Where's your luck?" Xu Qing looked up and looked at the cage where the ancestor of the Danqing clan was.
The old man of the Danqing clan bowed when he heard the words and spoke in a low voice.
"Good luck...... It seems that something is wrong, and I haven't seen it for several days."
Xu Qing frowned, perceiving the scattered inside the cage, and got up to look for it in each cage.
Finally, in a corner, he stopped in his footsteps and saw the little boy lying there, dying.
The little boy's body was very dirty, with some dirt, his little face was also dirty, and his body was also weak like never before.
It was in a bad state, it seemed to be in pain, and the painful body continued to tremble.
Noticing Xu Qing coming, it reluctantly raised its head, its expression extremely sluggish, and it couldn't open its eyes. But he still showed a smile to Xu Qing, trying hard to stand up and follow and continue to guard.
But it couldn't do it, so in the end he could only look at Xu Qing helplessly, opening his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.
Compared with the liveliness of the past, the little boy at this moment instinctively feels a strong sense of pity.
Xu Qing was moved, squatted down, and observed the little boy carefully.
He gradually saw that what caused the other party's pain was a touch of black gas swimming in his body.
This black qi was affecting the little boy and changing it.
And the shadow and the Vajra Sect ancestor were also transformed at this moment, the former looked at the little boy curiously, and the latter showed a solemn expression.
"Master, based on the scripts I read, I can probably guess its situation."
Vajra Sect Ancestor spoke in a low voice.
Xu Qing looked over.
"This is contaminated, it should have run somewhere and encountered something unclean."
When the little boy heard this, he nodded weakly.
Seeing that his guess came true, the ancestor of the Vajra Sect knew that the time had come for him to perform, so he looked solemn and bowed to Xu Qing.
"Master, according to my experience, all unclean evil things, thunder can defeat them, if the master allows, the small one can try to use his own cataclysmic thunder to purify his own pollution."
Xu Qing pondered, he didn't know about luck, and he didn't know how to do it to help the little boy relieve it, but he thought of the palace master.
"Does the palace master know that you exist?" Xu Qing spoke softly.
The little boy nodded.
"Does he know your current state?" Xu Qing asked.
The little boy raised his hand weakly and gestured, Xu Qing frowned, he couldn't understand it.
The shadow suddenly spoke.
"It seems to ...... Say that the palace master knows...... Relieve it and let it ...... Hugh will soon ...... Okay."
Shadow obviously had a similar experience in this area, so Mo Hu understood a little.
The little boy nodded slightly, his body became even weaker, and his eyes slowly closed.
Xu Qing pondered and looked at the little boy with a discomfortable face, he allowed the Vajra Sect Ancestor to give it a try.
When the ancestor of the Vajra Sect heard this, he immediately raised his hand, and suddenly a red lightning appeared in the palm of his hand, cautiously approaching the little boy, emitting a trace of heavenly tribulation thunder.
With the integration of thunder, the little boy was shocked, and the black energy in his body was indeed missing.
Seeing that it was effective, the Vajra Sect Ancestor increased his thunder, and soon the black energy in the little boy's body continued to decrease, and its weakness slowly dissipated, and it began to recover.
It's just that this method can't remove the roots, there is still a wisp of black thread in the little boy's body, which cannot be dispelled, and there are still more of them.
But after all, it can relieve its pain, so soon the little boy stood up happily, circled around Xu Qing, and had a happy smile on his face.
But looking at the trace of black gas in the little boy's body, Xu Qing felt that this matter was not so simple.
But since the palace master had already noticed, this matter was not something he could handle.
In fact, this is indeed the case, when Xu Qing came to Ding Yi 32 again the next day, the little boy had completely recovered, the black energy in his body completely dissipated, and he became as cheerful as usual.
Everything returned to normal, and Xu Qing also began his daily life of earning military merit during the day and at night.
It's just that although military merit continues to accumulate, there is still a lot of gap between what Xu Qing needs and what he needs, until this night, when he was about to go out to earn military merit, he received a message from Kong Xianglong.
"Xu Qing, you are in the Sword Pavilion, if you are here, I will go to you, the military merits of the last mission have come down."
Xu Qing lifted his spirits.
Soon, he saw Kong Xianglong flying from the Sword Palace at the gate of the Sword Pavilion.
Seeing Xu Qing, Kong Xianglong laughed and threw Xu Qing directly to Xu Qing a storage bag.
"There are two items in it, one is the military merit certificate, I have already recorded and verified it for you, you only need to integrate it into your own spirit sword, and you can increase the corresponding military merit."
"The other is the gift I promised to give you, and I have been thinking about your shot during this time, I think if you absorb your strange hand into the alien, then the power will be greater, and the strange you itself is a foreign race, so if you do this, you need to balance the heterogeneity in your body, this is one of my suggestions, you can try it later."
"Needless to say, I have something to go to the Criminal Prison Division, alas, the palace master summoned me, so I have to go." Kong Xianglong sighed, and after clenching his fists at Xu Qing, he left in a hurry without waiting for Xu Qing to say anything.
Looking at Kong Xianglong's back, Xu Qing thanked him from the bottom of his heart and clenched his fists and bowed.
After returning to the Sword Pavilion, he opened the storage bag, and there were indeed two items inside, in addition to the jade slip of military merit certificate, there was also a blue ice cube.
This ice technique was formed, and there was a heart sealed in it!
The heart was translucent, difficult to detect without careful observation, and it was not dead, with a hint of life.
Xu Qing's eyes froze, and he recognized that this was the heart of the Guiyou Clan.
Xu Qing is no stranger to the Guiyou Clan, he once captured one alive back then, and was finally refined by him.
In fact, it was this incident that gave the Seventh Master the inspiration to seize the Taoist skill.
And this refinement also gave Xu Qing's body the foundation for cultivating the Mysterious Tao.
Then the Seventh Master passed through the fingers of Huang Yikun of the Xuanyou Sect, and the inspiration was possible to be realized, coupled with the strange heart in Sima Ru's body, as well as the similar methods of countless sects to seize the Dao, this strange Dao was finally formed.
So theoretically, the heart of the Strange You Clan can be strengthened by the Strange Ghost Dao Skill.
It's just that the number of the Strange You Clan is too small, and with Xu Qing's current cultivation, the Strange You Clan of the Foundation Realm is of little significance, he needs the Strange Heart of the Golden Pill Realm.
This heart sealed in the blue ice cube was the Strange You Clan from the Jindan Realm.
Xu Qing raised his head and looked in the direction of the Criminal Prison Division where Kong Xianglong went.
This gift, for him, is heavy.
After a long time, Xu Qing withdrew his gaze and looked at Han Bing, his eyes showed decisiveness, and the mysterious Dao was running rapidly in his body, and his arms quickly turned translucent.
Without any hesitation, Xu Qing raised his translucent right hand and reached into the ice.
Penetrated in an instant, grabbed the strange heart inside!
The moment she touched, Xu Qing's body shook.
The mysterious heart sealed in the blue ice came out of a strong struggle, vaguely as if there was an angry roar echoing in Xu Qing's mind, revealing madness, but as the glow in Xu Qing's eyes flashed, his right hand grabbed his heart fiercely, and this repulsive force was forcibly suppressed by him.
The strange heart dissipated visibly until it completely disappeared after a while, and was integrated into Xu Qing's own exercises.
At the next moment, a large number of mixed memory fragments appeared in Xu Qing's mind, like a storm roaring in his mind.
This is the remaining memory from the owner of the Strange Heart.
There was even more crazy emotion in it, as if he was unwilling to be swallowed and wanted to break away Xu Qing's sea of consciousness, but as Xu Qing snorted coldly, the ghost emperor in the sea of consciousness emitted a strong light.
In the next moment, these memory fragments were all crushed, and after the smoke and clouds dissipated, Xu Qing's mysterious Taoist skill operated on its own.
Gradually, not only did his right hand become translucent, but his left hand ...... At this moment, too, things began to change.
Until half an hour later, Xu Qing took a deep breath and raised his hands.
Both of his arms became translucent.
In this way, when he launches this tricky path against the enemy in the future, he will be more flexible, and the speed of absorption will be faster.
Looking at his hands, Xu Qing's face showed satisfaction, thinking of what Kong Xianglong said about condensing heterogeneity.
"Poison should also work." Xu Qing murmured.
"It's not appropriate, that's equivalent to clearly telling the enemy that I am good at poison, and it is more effective when my poison spreads around...... Of course, this can be done occasionally, as it can be used to confuse people's attention on my hands, thus ignoring the poison that permeates the surroundings."
Xu Qing was about to change his mind when his sound transmission jade slip suddenly vibrated, and the first thing that came was a long sigh.
Then the captain's voice with a sense of resentment echoed after this sigh.
"Little Aqing, you have changed your mind."
Xu Qing was stunned.
"You can start and abandon those female cultivators, but I am your senior brother, you can't do this."
"We agreed to have brotherhood, we have been together in this life, but in the end, I was the one who carried all the ......."
The captain's resentment seemed to be able to penetrate the jade slip and permeated Xu Qing's Sword Pavilion, and it did not dissipate for a long time.
"Senior brother......"
Xu Qing hesitated for a moment, and just as the sound was transmitted, the captain's second long sigh echoed.
"If I hadn't been in the Gongbo Division, I wouldn't have known that Xiao Aqing's military merits had suddenly increased a lot......"
"It's okay, little junior brother, senior brother blesses you, I hope you and Kong Xianglong will have a good ...... for a hundred years."
Xu Qing felt that the more the senior brother talked, the more nonsense he became, and generally speaking, the senior brother in this state must have something to ask for, so he spoke calmly.
"Senior brother, are you short of spirit stones?"
"Little Aqing, in your eyes, is senior brother that kind of person?" Inside the jade slip, the captain snorted coldly.
"Okay senior brother, since there is no shortage, then forget it." Xu Qing was unmoved and spoke calmly.
"Cough...... Don't, don't, actually, there aren't many things missing." Inside the jade slip, the captain coughed dryly, he was indeed short of spirit stones.
