Chapter 487: The first clues, doubts in my heart

This pungent blood qi fell second, but if it continued like this, he didn't know how long he could hold on, in this short moment, the flesh and blood on his body had gradually dried up, and his great martial artist cultivation that had finally broken through the bottleneck and stabilized had already shown signs of almost shaking.

This body cultivation is the basis for him to be able to survive here, and in order to break through to this realm, he no longer knows how much he has sacrificed, how can he tolerate the retreat of cultivation. Moreover, even if he took this posture of locking his body, it did not completely prevent the blood qi from leaking out, but only slowed down the speed at which the blood qi disintegrated.

No matter how much you seal the broken pocket with a loophole, it can't be used like the original, even if its hole is countless times smaller than before, but if this trend continues, it won't take half an hour for his life to be in danger.

"Damn!"

Even if Qi Zhou, who has seen a lot of wind and waves in his life, he is still a little panicked at this first time, he has never seen such a change as himself, the blood and qi around his body gushed out uncontrollably, and anyone will be at a loss.

But just when Qi Zhou was anxious, he seemed to have forgotten something. As soon as he sat down cross-legged and sealed himself, the knocking at the door stopped, but after a moment's delay, the sound of sour gold and iron cracking gradually sounded.

If Qi Zhou raised his head at this time, he could find that the iron gate of the barracks close to him had already trembled violently, and countless dense cracks had appeared on the iron lock above the door, which had obviously reached the end of the crossbow.

When Qi Zhou's blood gushed out, his barracks was already filled with blood, although it was not rich because he had the heart to suppress it, but for Xiong Qi, who had also been crawling in blood for more than ten years outside this cell, this wisp of blood was as eye-catching as a light in the dark.

Boom!

With a muffled sound, the iron lock above the door suddenly cracked, and the lock ring fell to the ground, but the door had been violently pushed open by a thick arm.

"Lao Qi! What are you ...... What's going on?"

The loud noise from the impact of the door made Qi Zhou's heart tremble, the door that flew open was simply slapping his nose, if he took a step closer, he was afraid that he would be whipped out on the spot.

Xiong Qi outside the door also seemed to notice this, and the expression on his face was a little sneering, but when he saw Qi Zhou's current appearance clearly, he didn't care about it, and walked in directly and closed the door with his hand.

At this time, Qi Zhou looked extremely miserable, he took off his armor after returning to the barracks, and only wore a gray-brown undershirt, at this time there were several more tears on his shirt, and the bright red like a blooming blood lotus looked quite strange on his clothes.

Xiong Qi didn't move, but walked a few steps around Qi Zhou, and there was a look of incomprehension in his eyebrows. At this time, Qi Zhou's appearance was as if an old wound was cracking, and it didn't seem to be a big deal, but in his wait-and-see look, he didn't find any old wounds in his bleeding place, not even scars.

Moreover, the blood flowing out of his body was not like an injury in common sense, but more like an intentional act, as if the blood of the human body had a spiritual wisdom like a Gu worm, and they were about to escape from his body.

Xiong Qi's brows furrowed slightly, even he had never encountered such a situation, no matter how ferocious the monsters in this extreme north were, he had never heard of anyone with such injuries.

There was no wound in the bleeding place, the blood seeped out of the pores of his body, and even turned into a blood-colored mist from his mouth and nose, making it impossible to start.

Suddenly, Xiong Qi seemed to remember something, and suddenly recalled the purpose of his coming here today, and under the change in his complexion, he asked, "Old Qi, have you already used that blood crystal?"

Such a strange scene could never be manifested out of thin air, if there was something in this Demon Barrier that did not know the details, and perhaps there was a secret hand, the first thing Xiong Qi thought of was the blood-colored spar that he felt a little abnormal at the beginning.

Recalling the scene when he saw the two colleagues who broke through the realm with this spar fighting, Xiong Qi had some doubts in his heart, and he came to see his old fellow as soon as possible and warned him not to use it for the time being.

Later, he also took the opportunity to visit the two generals who were injured because of the fight at that time, but after the two of them came to their senses, they bluntly said that there was no grudge between the two sides, but for some reason, the more they fought at the beginning, the more murderous intent they felt, and in the end it really became a fight for their lives.

After learning about this, Xiong Qi naturally affirmed the guess in his heart, and wanted Qi Zhou to completely destroy the blood crystal, but before he could say anything, Qi Zhou was locked up because of the incident in front of the urn city.

Although he was anxious in his heart, but the military order was like a mountain, the main general had never spoken, and even if he Xiong Qi had a thousand means, he could not use it.

But just when he was worried about it, he learned from the mouth of one of his soldiers that "General Qi has broken through the bottleneck with his accumulation, has lifted his confinement, and returned to the army".

Accumulation?

Xiong Qi scoffed at this, they are both in the army, how many catties and taels do they have between each other, can Xiong Qi still be unclear?

With Qi Zhou's ability, if he can accumulate thick and thin, and break through the bottleneck of the great martial artist in just a few days, then why would he take the risk and go to the dungeon many times to take that blood essence for his own use?

From then on, he knew that his brother must have absorbed and swallowed the problematic spar on the spur of the moment.

That's why he rushed over in a hurry, although listening to what the other generals said, Qi Zhou's appearance didn't seem to be weird, but he still had some doubts in his heart.

From Qi Zhou's reaction before he was in Urn City, to the other colleagues he found who also used blood crystals to assist in cultivation under his secret investigation, the strangeness that had become more and more extreme above his consciousness in the past few days, the uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense.

He was not here today just to visit his friends, but to exhort his old friend to confess the blood crystal to the generals in the army with him.

He always felt that the blood-colored crystal was weird and outrageous, although the status of the head of the land was low, and it was not worth making a fuss about it, but the blood crystal was so widespread that it had almost occupied half of the entire Demon Fortress generals.

Once there is fraud in it, the consequences are unimaginable.

Xiong Qi didn't dare to think about it any further, he didn't believe that the old man who didn't have a few days to live would have such a big courage, but this blood crystal that had penetrated into all aspects of the Demon Barrier made him have a vague bad premonition in his heart.

If he thinks too much, it's fine, if it's really as he expected, it will be a catastrophe for this ancient city, and it must be their generals who should be robbed.
