Hanzhu City, Vocational College.

At Jian Lingtian's request, Dean Xiao kept the news of Jian Lingtian here, so Jian Lingtian had a relatively leisurely life these days.

He has reached a bottleneck in his cultivation, he has nothing to do all day, and apart from reading some of the ancestors' practice notes, his only pleasure is training... Phew, the little apprentice who cultivated Su Qiran.

East Street, White Lane Manor.

This is the manor of the Lu family in Hanzhu City, Lu Hai generously took it out and lent it to Jian Ling Tian for temporary use, but Jian Ling Tian did not shirk it.

The quiet surroundings are a stark contrast to the bustling East Street not far away.

"Hold the sword with a steady hand. Jian Lingtian looked at Su Xiaoxiao, who was sweating profusely in the face of the big sun, and was a little surprised that she could still persevere.

Su Xiaoxiao had maintained this sword-swinging posture for more than an hour, with her current physical fitness, maintaining a movement like this, the soreness of the muscles and the pain caused by the hot environment could almost destroy all of a person's patience.

However, the endurance of the little girl in front of her exceeded Jian Ling Tian's expectations by a lot.

Even though her whole body was already shaking uncontrollably.

Sweat was dripping down, her mind was getting more and more blurred, and she began to wonder why she was doing this, and the aches all over her body were urging her to give up.

"Running exercises. Jian Lingtian's voice made Su Xiaoxiao, whose mind was already confused, regain a little consciousness.

I want to help the teacher when he comes back, I think...

Mom and Dad...

Grey Forest!

I've got to go there and see what killed Mom and Dad!

In her mind, she recalled the lesson that Jian Ling Tian had given yesterday afternoon.

"The reason why a swordsman is a swordsman is that he cares about the heart that holds the sword and the perseverance. Our sword can be a weapon of judgment or a shield to protect others. ”

"Martial arts cultivation lies in the condensation and application of true qi, the human body has [Qi Jing Eight Pulses], which is the foundation of martial arts practitioners, different from ordinary meridians, [Qi Jing Eight Channels] contains innate [Qi], let go of your mind to sense your body..."

Her consciousness became more and more trance-like, and Su Xiaoxiao felt that the soreness in all parts of her body suddenly disappeared. There was a blue patch in the field of vision, as if the world had been filtered with blue.

She seemed to be a bystander, and she clearly felt the [Qi] gushing out from the depths of her body, the [Qi] that existed like a blue beam of light!

Jian Ling Tian looked at Su Xiaoxiao, who was emitting a light blue halo all over his body, and was slightly stunned, "Water Attribute..."

Su Xiaoxiao couldn't hold on any longer, the iron sword in her hand fell to the ground with a crisp clanging sound, and she herself was about to be planted on the ground.

The golden halo dragged her body in time.

"Xiaotong, take her to the bathroom on the first floor, where I prepared a medicinal bath. Jian Ling Tian glanced at Qin Xiaotong, who had already jumped out of the void.

"Can Tiny stand a medicated bath?" Qin Xiaotong hugged Su Xiaoxiao, who had passed out in a coma, and asked a little worriedly. She remembered that when she first started her cultivation, she had only started using medicinal baths when she was a Level 3 Assassin.

"It's okay, it's the medicated bath recipe that my grandfather used for me when I was a child, and I finally collected it here last night. Jian Ling Tian waved his hand.

Qin Xiaotong no longer hesitated when she heard this, she rushed into the house with Su Xiaoxiao in her arms.

Jian Ling Tian stood in place, his face contemplative.

He had seen the results of Hanzhu Vocational College's test of Su Xiaoxiao's talent, which was an important criterion for recruiting students in Hanzhu City.

The result of that test was a very ordinary magical inscription physique. This level of talent is just able to cultivate, and it is almost impossible to break through the barrier from a beginner professional to an advanced professional in a lifetime.

But today, it seems that Su Xiaoxiao's talent is not like that, in just one day of physical limit cultivation, he can sense the existence of the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, and open one vein, and step into the world of cultivation, this kind of talent is qualified to enter the senior academy to practice in Xingzhu City.

"It's unlikely that there was a problem with the detection at Hanzhu Vocational College... Forget it, I don't want to, if you want to be true to the water attribute... It looks like I'm going to have to ask Uncle Shi for something..."Jian Ling Tian muttered to himself.

"Knock knock!" there was a fierce knock outside the door.

Jian Lingtian opened the door with some hesitation.

Outside the door is the iconic big man of Lu Hai.

"There is a gray forest in the forest west of the city..."

"Grey Forest?" Jian Ling Tian frowned slightly, he had no interest in that gray forest, that was not something he should have come into contact with at this stage, after all, there was a respected high-ranking [high priest] in the Cloud Empire who had entered that life-like Jedi in order to investigate the phenomenon of the gray forest.

But like all those who had fallen into the Grey Forest before, the High Priest did not come out alive.

"Someone saw the gray curtain coming out of it..."Lu Hai's next sentence made Jian Ling Tian's heart shock.

Gray forests have appeared on the continent for so long, and no one has ever been able to come out of them!

Whether it is a powerful end-level professional or an ordinary person, the gray forest seems to be a forbidden woodland that extincts all life!

"What about the Gray Curtain Man?" Jian Ling Tian realized the seriousness of the matter.

"I don't know. Lu Hai shook his head, "Our people are lost." ”

The people of the major forces in Cold Bamboo City have been sending people to monitor the gray forest since they discovered it yesterday.

"By the way, does Dean Xiao know?"

"Dean Xiao already knows. ”

"What about the Empire?"

"The City Lord's Mansion knows about it, and it is estimated that it has been reported to the superiors. ”

"Oh..."

No, it's too slow.

Now there are two methods, one is to block Hanzhu City and nearby cities, and comprehensively search the gray curtain.

However, this disadvantage is also very big, with the strength of the various city lords in Hanzhu City and nearby cities, not to mention whether or not the blockade circle can be completed, the strength of the high-level Shura of the Gray Curtain is there, and it is basically impossible for such a large blockade circle to catch him.

The second is to wait for the imperial capital to send "professionals" over, but it will take too long...

Although thanks to the reform of magic technology and the widespread use of magic communication devices, there is no need to use manpower to convey news to various places like more than ten years ago, but when the imperial capital is over, the bloated power authority will discuss a countermeasure and then send people over, and the gray curtain will have long since disappeared, and it may even have left the Xingzhu Empire.

"Is there a high-level [astrologer] here?" Jian Ling Tian suddenly asked. Astrologer is a profession in the magic department, because it requires extremely high talent, and the short life span of astrologers, it is extremely difficult to practice to the end of the profession, and the constraints of professionals are also important reasons for the scarcity of professionals in this area. Not to mention that astrologers are also an auxiliary profession.

"There is one in the Chu family. Lu Hai thought for a while and said. The Chu family is one of the few big families in Hanzhu City that can compete with the Lu family.

"Can you take me to him?" Jian Ling Tian asked.

"Yes. ”
