Although the cultivation of the third senior brother Lin Qiong is much higher than that of the bandit leader surnamed Zhang, after all, the other party has a large number of people, and there are also several spiritual cultivators in the realm of spiritual masters, when the number of spiritual cultivators reaches a certain level, even in the face of a monk who is a big realm higher than himself, he can still occupy some advantages. Therefore, at this moment, Lin Qiong really couldn't get rid of the siege of those people in an instant, but in the same way, those bandits didn't have time to take care of Xu Jingnian and the others who fled outside.

"Good. "Xu Jingnian is very clear about the form of the field, once the senior brother finishes solving the enemy, and then comes to help the third senior brother to break the siege, he can end the battle soon, no matter how bad it is, with the cultivation of the senior brother and others, self-protection must be no problem, so Xu Jingnian is not worried about the safety of the three senior brothers, and he and Master Xue went directly to the front.

Soon, Xu Jingnian and Master Xue ran out a long distance, and when they looked back, the fire in the crowd on the senior brother's side was also blocked by the lofty mountains, and they couldn't hear the sound of fighting. Master Xue is not a monk, and he was born a little fat, and he was already out of breath after running such a long way, and kept asking Xu Jingnian to rest for a while, Xu Jingnian saw that no one was chasing after him, so he agreed to his request, found a stone nearby, and sat down with Master Xue.

"Ah, I'm exhausted. Master Xue obviously hadn't recovered from Fang Cai's frightened escape, and his face turned a little pale from extreme nervousness.

"Master Xue, what kind of treasure are you hiding on your body, why do they want to snatch your goods. Xu Jingnian said curiously. This Master Xue is at most an ordinary wealthy businessman, Xu Jingnian really can't imagine that what kind of item can provoke so many thieves with a high level of cultivation to come and fight for it.

"Hey, anyway, if there is no one around, it's okay to tell Xu Shaoxia, but Xu Shaoxia must not tell others. Master Xue observed the surroundings, and there was only silence, so he whispered to Xu Jingnian.

"Well, I promise you that I won't tell anyone else. Xu Jingnian nodded and said.

"I went to an auction house a few days ago, and I happened to find a treasure, and it was a very good treasure, and I also knew the secret of an ancient book, so I recognized it, and I photographed it in the eyes of everyone who did not understand. Master Xue said.

"The Taoist ideal of the innocent and guilty must Xu Shaoxia also understand, I spent a price that was completely not worthy of the real price of this treasure to photograph this treasure, and I was happy in my heart, but I didn't expect that this also attracted the attention of many people with a heart. ”

"I'm afraid of long nights and dreams, so I packed my luggage immediately after I went back, and hired my old friend, the mercenary group of Captain Wu to escort me back to Qinghezhuang, but I didn't expect to go to the inn in Fangcai, and I encountered an attack, and then what happened later, I guess Xu Shaoxia also knew. ”

"That's the treasure. Master Xue told Xu Jingnian what had happened, and then he took out the treasure that attracted the eyes of countless people from the ring and showed it to Xu Jingnian.

"Isn't this just an ordinary stone?" Xu Jingnian observed, even with Xu Jingnian's eyesight, he couldn't recognize what was so strange about this so-called treasure that looked no different from ordinary stones.

"It's not strange that Xu Shaoxia doesn't know, but don't underestimate this stone, this is a Juyuan Stone, and according to my judgment, it is at least a fourth-order Juyuan Stone. Seeing Xu Jingnian's puzzled look, Master Xue explained with a smile.

"Juyuan Stone, what is that?" Xu Jingnian is also rich in knowledge, but he has no impression of this Juyuan Stone.

"Xu Shaoxia has heard of Chaos Heavenly Heart?" Master Xue did not answer Xu Jingnian directly, but asked.

"Naturally. Xu Jingnian nodded. Isn't this Chaos Heavenly Heart the root cause of the strong aura of the Yuantian Continent that the Medicine Emperor Ancient Tree Guardian had mentioned before.

"That's right, after the explosion of the Chaos Heavenly Heart, most of the aura dissipated and permeated the air of the continent, but there was also a part of the aura gathered together, scattered throughout the continent with the circulation of air, and was finally absorbed by some strange stones that had a special attraction to the aura. The strange stones that absorbed a large amount of aura in the hearts of the Chaos Heavenly Beings, after the incubation of time, became the current Juyuan Stone. ”

"I see, what is the purpose of this Juyuan Stone, and why is there a class division. Xu Jingnian continued to ask. The explosion of the Chaos Heavenly Heart was already after Xu Jingnian's death, how could Xu Jingnian know the origin of this Gathering Yuan Stone.

"The Juyuan Stone has the effect of enabling spiritual cultivation to temporarily improve one's cultivation realm, and the class represents the upper limit of the spiritual cultivation that a Juyuan Stone can support. For example, my Gathering Yuan Stone is a fourth-order Gathering Yuan Stone, which can help spiritual cultivation below the Grandmaster realm to improve cultivation for a short time, and for spiritual cultivation above the Grandmaster Realm, this fourth-order Gathering Yuan Stone is just an ordinary stone as you said. Master Xue put the Juyuan Stone back into the ring and explained to Xu Jingnian.

"It's no wonder that being able to help spiritual cultivators below the Grandmaster realm to improve their cultivation for a short time must be a great boost to their own strength, no wonder it will attract so many people to scramble. But why don't you give it to Commander Wu, if you improve his cultivation, it won't be easier when you retreat from the enemy. ”

"Do you think this Juyuan Stone can be used all the time, within three days, the Juyuan Stone can only be used once, and there are strict requirements for using the Juyuan Stone, and not anyone can use it. ”

"Okay, I'm almost rested, Xu Shaoxia, let's continue our journey. Master Xue had almost recovered his strength at this moment, stood up, and said to Xu Jingnian.

"Good. Xu Jingnian responded, then he also stood up, and walked towards the dead wood forest agreed with the senior brother with Master Xue, completely unaware that there were already people waiting for them in front of the entrance of the dead wood forest.
