Chapter 6: The Princess's Betrothal
The smoke clears, and the space becomes quiet. Xie Qian's whole body was weak, and blood stained his clothes red. He struggled to stand up and looked at Shi Jiu in the big pit in front of him. At this time, Shi Jiu's divine light faded, and he lay on the ground, his eyes opening with difficulty.
"You won. Shi Jiu said.
"I won the strength to stand up, but I can't condense any soul power now. Xie Qian smiled helplessly.
"Lion Seven, give him the Soul Rejuvenation Pill. Shi Jiu did not respond to Xie Qian's words, but said to Shi Qi, who arrived at the bottom of the pit to check on Shi Jiu's situation.
"There is only one Soul Rejuvenation Pill left, and you are obviously more injured than him. Shi Qi said angrily, staring at Xie Qian with slanted eyes.
"Give it to him. Shi Jiu repeated this sentence, and his tone became a little heavier.
Shi Qi pouted as if deflated: "I've never seen you treat me so well." ā
She took out a pill from her space bag and reluctantly handed it to Xie Qian, who was a little dazed and took the Soul Rejuvenation Pill, at a loss.
The Soul Rejuvenation Pill is a first-order elixir that can quickly restore the soul power of a martial artist, which is simply a tonic for Xie Qian at this stage.
"How embarrassing is that. Xie Qian gave full play to his spirit of "fake politeness", holding the Soul Rejuvenation Pill tightly, but he pretended to be very embarrassed on the surface.
Shi Qi stared at the past: "Eat it for you, and then talk nonsense, believe it or not, I'll kill you." Soul power poured out from Shi Qi's body, turned into a small knife, and pointed at Xie Qian.
"Lion Seven. Shi Jiu yelled at Shi Qi with difficulty, and his tone was very heavy.
Shi Qi looked at Shi Jiu, who seemed to be coughing constantly because of the urgency of the fire, put away his soul power, hurriedly walked over, and helped Shi Jiu up.
"You know that you kill me, and you hurt yourself so badly every time, you think you are an iron man. Shi Qi said to Shi Jiu, and Xie Qian on the side felt that this tone actually had a coquettish taste.
"Are you sisters and brothers?" Xie Qian asked tentatively.
"There is no blood relationship. Without waiting for Shi Jiu to answer, Shi Qi immediately replied.
After Shi Qi finished speaking, she seemed to find that something was wrong, she looked at Shi Jiu who was sitting calmly on the side, and her cheeks suddenly flushed. She turned her head and stared at Xie Qian: "Why do you ask so much, do you want to eat or not, and come back if you don't eat." ā
"Eat... Eat, but it's a shame, although I don't have the Soul Rejuvenation Pill here, but there are some medicines to treat injuries, and I will use them for Shi Jiu first. After Xie Qian finished speaking, he took out the elixir from his space bag. When Shi Qi saw it, he directly snatched the medicine and smeared it on Shi Jiu's body.
Xie Qian also swallowed the Soul Rejuvenation Pill and resumed his meditation. As soon as the Soul Restoration Pill was entered, the soul power in the Dan spread to Xie Qian's whole body, merging with his flesh and blood. It didn't take long for Xie Qian to regain his soul power. Even the wounds on his body have healed a lot.
"This Soul Rejuvenation Pill is really domineering, you have to buy some when you go to the town, just in case you need it. Xie Qian muttered.
"Are you going to Tianmai Mountain?" Seeing Xie Qian's recovery, Shi Jiu asked him.
"Yes, do you want to go? Xie Qian asked rhetorically.
"I'll go, but not today, I still have some things to do. Shi Jiu replied.
"Then I'll wait for you in Tianmai Mountain, and then we will be famous in Zhongzhou together. Xie Qian smiled at Shi Jiu. For Xie Qian, Shi Jiu is like a rare opponent and a rare friend.
After speaking, Xie Qian stepped forward, left this place, and headed in the direction of Tianmai Mountain.
After Xie Qian left, the space where Shi Jiu and Shi Qi were located was torn apart, and a figure slowly emerged.
"The Lion King. Shiqi looked at the visitor and saluted slightly.
"Father, you're here. Shi Jiu was supported by Shi Qi and stood up.
"How does it feel to fight with Xiao Qian. The Lion King said to Shi Jiu.
"He's strong. Shi Jiu said three simple words.
"Well, you don't have to be discouraged. Your divine lion has not fully awakened, I will take you back to your ancestral land in the next few days to fully awaken, and when the time comes, the combat power will definitely increase significantly. "The Lion King knows that although Lion Jiu can accept his failure, he will inevitably be a little frustrated.
"You stay here first, and after three days, take Shijiu to Tianmai Mountain, and after that, go and complete the task I gave you. The lion king said to the lion seven.
"Hmm. Lion Seven nodded.
The space was torn apart again, and the Lion King entered the space with Shijiu and disappeared.
When Shi Jiu reappeared, he was greeted by a world of extreme beauty, surrounded by peach blossom trees, pedestrians, and the sound of water, footsteps and laughter intertwined, like a pastoral song.
Here, it is Peach Blossom Village, and the Lion King is the village chief of Peach Blossom Village.
"Father, is this the place we need to protect? is it also the land of our Lion Warrior Clan?" asked Shi Jiu.
"I've been here for a few years now. The village chief said, "But this is not just the birthplace of our war lion clan, it has something bigger that is worth giving your life to protect." ā
"You come with me. "The village chief took Shi Jiu and entered the depths of Peach Blossom Village-Peach Blossom Forest.
Three days later, a divine light bloomed in the peach blossom forest, and Shi Jiu jumped out of the divine light, and at this time, his injuries had healed.
"Father, it worked. Shi Jiu felt his own strength and said to the village chief.
"Let's go find Shiqi, and follow the method I said to enter and exit Peach Blossom Village. ā
Shi Jiu nodded, went to the magic circle of Peach Blossom Village, opened the Shixuan Gate, and disappeared.
"Who is that kid, how did I see a divine light in the peach blossom forest just now. Someone in Peach Blossom Village said.
"The village chief brought it in, it is estimated that it is his child, and he should pass on some spells to him in the peach blossom forest. Someone replied.
Everyone nodded, not paying any more attention.
Bing Yan stood under the Shixuan Gate and witnessed the whole process.
The old man in the old house looked in the direction of Shi Xuanmen and muttered to himself, "Is it worth doing this?"
......
Xie Qian didn't know about all this.
In the Tianwen Continent, there are three major races, the human race, the demon race and the demon race. The human race occupies the eastern and southern states, and the demons occupy the western and northern states, and the two races have been at war for many years, and they are almost incompatible. And the demon clan is alone in Zhongzhou, and has dealings with the demon race and the human race, they do not fight for life and death, only for interests. At this time, Xie Qian came to an ancient town near the Purple Moon Cliff in Zhongzhou, this town is called Trading Town, although it is close to the desert, there are many people who sell weapons, formations, and elixirs here. Because there are big demon forces in the town that intervene and collect some fees to ensure that the transaction can be carried out safely, there is an endless stream of people coming and going.
Xie Qian came here, firstly, he was more familiar with the section of the road in this town, and secondly, there was a teleportation array here, which could teleport him to Tianmai Mountain, otherwise, with his current forward speed, he would not be able to reach Tianmai Mountain in the Year of the Monkey.
"Take a walk, take a look, weapons, elixir, everything. ā
"The best primary spirit weapon, the nine-grade low-level formation, if you are interested, take a look!"
ā......ā
Xie Qian liked the lively atmosphere in the town, and walked around and saw some magic weapons, but none of them liked anything. The formations are all some ninth-grade low-level formations, and there are very few intermediate-level formations, so Xie Qian is inevitably a little disappointed.
Xie Qian's current strength can quickly arrange the Nine Rank Advanced Formation, and the Nine Snake Formation is the formation of this level. Generally speaking, a formation mage can arrange the corresponding magic circle according to the level of his spiritual power. If a circle with a similar level of spiritual power is arranged, the circle master usually needs to prepare carefully, and even then, the success rate is still very small.
And Xie Qian is different, because of the "Dao Nian Spiritual Method", Xie Qian can accurately control his spiritual power, and he can quickly arrange the Nine Snake Formation in the early stage of the Nine Snake Cultivation Realm, and as for the Ten Snake Formation, it was realized when he fought with Shi Jiu, he used the spiritual power in the middle stage of the Cultivation God Realm to barely control it, he thought, it is estimated that the Ten Snake Formation has exceeded the range of the Nine Ranks.
"Little brother, let's take a look! Zhongzhou's latest fairy list, the Son of Heaven list. As Xie Qian was thinking, a voice next to him shouted.
Xie Qian looked over and saw a fat middle-aged man looking at him with a kind look in his eyes.
"Boss, what is the Fairy List, the Son of Heaven List?" Xie Qian asked.
As soon as the boss saw that there was a fish on the hook, he gushed endlessly: "The fairy list, the list of the Son of Heaven is selected every five years, the goal is Tianjiao, who is less than eighteen years old in Zhongzhou, and the comprehensive selection of talent from the appearance, everyone who is selected is the pride of Zhongzhou." ā
"Let's take a look at this fairy list first, the number one is the princess of the Phoenix clan, Phoenix Butterfly Yun, who is young, but has reached the eight-point limit of cultivation, and her appearance can be called a country and a city. Tsk, if I were so dozens of years younger, I would pursue her, and maybe I would be successful. ā
"I also heard that the princess will also go on this trip to Tianmai Mountain, which not only makes the grandchildren of some big forces in Zhongzhou ecstatic, but even some Tianjiao in other four states will come to see the princess. ā
"Her beauty is beyond words. In order to pursue her, some people even went directly to the Phoenix Mansion to shout for marriage. ā
Xie Qian suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, isn't this person himself?
Xie Qian had seen Phoenix Butterfly Yun, the last time he went to Tianji Valley in Zhongzhou, a detachment of the Phoenix Clan floated in front of him, and he saw her who was protected by the team in the center, and with just one glance, his heart fell.
Later, in order to see her, Xie Qian went to the Phoenix Mansion alone, and was driven away by the guards before he could set foot in the mansion.
Just because he shouted outside the Phoenix Clan: "Feng Dieyun, I'm here to marry you back to the village." ā
Xie Qian was taken behind closed doors, and it was also regarded as a joke, which was circulated in Zhongzhou for a while.
"Look at you in a cold sweat, this person can't be you, right?" said the boss with a smile.
"This... Iā" Xie Qian suddenly stopped.
"Hahaha, just kidding, little brother, don't mind. But I still admire the man's courage and don't hide it. The boss said.
Xie Qian had a feeling of being toyed with and applauded at this time. He reacted and realized that the man in front of him could be described as a first-class master among merchants.
"I was able to start with my interests and then increase my words to make me believe. You can also find out that something is wrong with me from the changes in my microscopic expression, and praise me from the side. Looks like he might have guessed that I was the one. Xie Qian pondered.
Seeing Xie Qian's thinking, the corners of the boss's mouth rose slightly: "Young man, tell you secretly, I only learned from the inside news of the merchant circle yesterday that after the trip to Tianmai Mountain, the patriarch of the Phoenix clan intends to face the Tianjiao of all clans and hold a talent trial in the Phoenix Mansion, and the winner can be engaged to the princess and lead the old line." ā
