Qin Lang stared at this scene blankly, the shock in his heart had not yet calmed down, and there was a sudden figure beside him, wearing a hat, it was Qin Xiaocang.

"Feng'er. Qin Xiaocang called.

"Three, third uncle. Qin Lang finally came back to his senses and looked at Qin Xiaocang.

At this moment, Qin Lang's wolf was unbearable, full of injuries, if it weren't for the help of Qinglong Jade and the Earth Spirit Ring, I am afraid that he would also become one of the surrounding corpses in a battle tonight.

After tonight's battle, the mercenaries and townsfolk suffered heavy casualties.

According to later statistics, there were 70 mercenaries, but now there are only 13 left, and all of them have large and small injuries. Of the more than 300 townspeople who participated in the battle, less than 23 out of 10 survived.

After this battle, Qin Lang deeply realized the duty and cruelty of being a mercenary.

Mercenaries, in order to complete their tasks, in order to protect ordinary people, can sometimes spare their lives. They tend to be torn between life and death, and in this sense, mercenaries are more dismissive of life and death than ordinary people.

Mercenaries, who will do their best to survive in battle, have an amazing will to survive and a team spirit. From this point of view, mercenaries value and cherish life more than ordinary people.

Mercenary is a singable, sad, and respectable profession.

However, it is also the most dangerous profession, according to incomplete statistics from the Mercenary Guild, the mortality rate of starless mercenaries is as high as 50% every year, and starless mercenaries are often not recognized as real mercenaries. They are the largest of the classes, but they are also the most humble.

And the mortality rate of other star mercenaries is not low, almost reaching 25%. Even if they don't die, many mercenaries become disabled in order to complete their tasks, and from then on they become ordinary people, or even inferior to ordinary people.

Mercenary is a cruel profession, if you are not mentally prepared to sacrifice at any time and be crippled at any time, do not become a mercenary.

This is a sentence that Qin Lang learned later, and he deeply agreed, but at the same time couldn't help but sigh.

"Feng'er, assessment. You've got it. Remember this battle. Remember tonight, and remember all those who died to protect the town. ”

After Qin Xiaocang said this, he left, leaving Qin Lang standing alone on the ground covered in blood and corpses, deep in thought against the cold night wind.

The waning moon casts a faint moonlight through the clouds. Reflecting the miserable earth. outlines Qin Lang's lonely figure.

Following. The surviving people erected tombstones for all the townspeople and mercenaries who died in their memory, and the families of the fallen mercenaries were also found through various channels. Give a certain amount of money as a final remedy.

Qin Lang returned to the town, looking at the rows of simple but heavy tombstones, his heart couldn't help but move, and he fell into contemplation again.

After this mercenary mission, Qin Lang understood the cruelty of the world for the first time, and understood the pathetic and respectable aspects of mercenaries for the first time. Although he had only a very brief contact with these people, and he couldn't name a few people at all, their figures were forever engraved in his heart.

This mission is a starless advanced mission, which can be said to be the most difficult and deadly starless mission, and those who are willing to accept the mission are ready to die. But when you really see someone dying in front of your eyes, everyone can't help but be sad, especially some friends and comrades-in-arms who know each other well.

Time flew by, three days had passed since that night, and most of the surviving mercenaries had received their mercenary money and left. Although the thug Ah Guo was extremely cruel to the enemy and the beasts, he was good to the mercenaries, and he paid double the mercenary money for everyone out of his own pocket.

Qin Lang has been in a daze for the past three days, staying in the room and falling silent all day long. Qin Xiaocang received the mercenary money for him, and because he had made a lot of efforts to kill the wolf king Qin Lang, and the wolf king belonged to a spirit beast and was worth a lot of money, so Qin Lang got an extra twenty silver coins, and this time he got a total of thirty silver coins.

Qin Xiaocang didn't take Qin Lang to leave immediately, he knew that Qin Lang still needed time to digest this experience, he was not in a hurry, and waited patiently in Sangluo Town.

After another two days, Ah Guo departed. However, Lansley, Granner, and others stayed behind to help the townspeople rebuild the town of Sangluo.

On this day, Qin Lang finally recovered and found Qin Xiaocang.

Qin Xiaocang saw Qin Lang, smiled slightly, and said, "Feng'er, this place is very close to Ningyang City, the third uncle will take you there to have a look, and by the way, I will hand over the task there." On the way, I will teach you the mantra of cultivating sword qi, and when you get to Ningyang City, you can try to cultivate there. ”

"It's all up to the third uncle's arrangement. Qin Lang nodded, he also had a sense of curiosity about Ningyang City in his heart.

Soon, Qin Xiaocang left Sangluo Town with Qin Lang and went all the way north to Ningyang City.

As they leave, Lansrie, Pony, Granner, and the others come out to see them off. After this battle, they got acquainted, they were all impressed by Qin Lang, and they were all very grateful, if it weren't for Qin Lang's strong realization, they might not be able to hold back Ah Guo.

Qin Lang also kept them all in his heart, they were the first people Qin Lang met outside, although they are not friends now, but after all, they have experienced life and death together, and this experience is also extremely rare and unforgettable.

When night fell, Qin Lang and Qin Xiaocang arrived in Ningyang City.

The two of them entered through the south gate, which was guarded by several soldiers, and they were not checked too closely, and they only needed to hand in 5 copper coins per person to enter.

Although at night, the lights in Ningyang City are still bright, like day. Night, for some, the day has just begun.

Ningyang City, as the fourth largest city in Rex, is undoubtedly prosperous, although it is night, the streets are still crowded, and all kinds of cries surround the ears. Some special entertainment venues such as taverns and gambling houses are extremely lively, and the flow of people is endless.

Qin Xiaocang found a hotel to stay in the south of the city, Qin Lang immediately locked himself in his room, and began to think back to the sword qi cultivation method that Qin Xiaocang had taught him on the way.

Sword Qi is the foundation of sword cultivation, just as the elements are important to spiritual cultivation.

And there are two ways for sword cultivators to cultivate sword qi, one is to change from spiritual cultivation to sword cultivators like Qin Lang, who originally has a certain amount of spiritual energy or spiritual power in his body. After practicing swords for a long time and having a certain familiarity with swords, Tong Guò's perception of kendo gradually transformed aura into sword qi with a special technique.

The other is those who have no spiritual energy foundation in their bodies, and they need to perceive the way of the sword, use the sword as a medium to perceive the special aura that exists between heaven and earth, and then still use that special trick to absorb it into the body and transform it into sword qi.

Of course, if you originally had spiritual power seeds in your body and didn't want to shatter them, you could also take the latter way to cultivate sword qi.

But these two methods. The latter is significantly more difficult than the former. Therefore, generally those who possess aura will directly convert it into sword qi, rather than choosing to go to heaven and earth to perceive that special aura out of thin air, and then transform it into sword qi.

Qin Lang encountered this situation now, and he was reluctant to break the spiritual power seed. After all, it didn't come easily. And it's a symbol of his spirituality.

Therefore, he resolutely decided to keep the spiritual power seed. Use the sword to perceive the special existence between heaven and earth, and cultivate the sword qi out of thin air.

Perhaps this would only make it more difficult and slow down his cultivation progress. But he never regretted it.

"The world is vast, and the sword is the guide. Ren Governor is accessible, and the mind is one. Shen condenses a hundred meetings, and looks at the dantian. The origin of vitality, the green and clear!"

An ancient and bitter magic trick sounded from Qin Lang's heart, he sat cross-legged, his eyes closed, his hands holding the Soul Crying Sword, his mind was clear, and he completely released his perception of the sword.

In an instant, there seemed to be a strange light faintly emanating from the Soul Crying Sword, and at this moment, Qin Lang felt that his soul had drifted away from his body, as if he had merged into the vast heaven and earth.

Strange to say, according to what Qin Xiaocang said, generally those who cultivate sword qi for the first time will fail. It takes several attempts before the soul can enter this mysterious realm and merge with heaven and earth.

Vaguely, Qin Lang found that there were wisps of strange mist floating between heaven and earth, although there were not many, they were real.

That is the special aura that needs to be absorbed into the body, and it is also an important thing to transform into sword qi.

Qin Lang took a big breath and tried to absorb these mist, but there was not much effect, only one or two extremely thin and fine mists were sucked away by him.

Qin Lang was not disappointed or discouraged, he had already heard Qin Xiaocang say that no one could successfully absorb a large amount of mist for the first time, he was not in a hurry.

He took this rare opportunity to take a closer look around, which was boundless, and wisps of mist were scattered throughout the world. Suddenly, I looked up, but saw that the sky above was covered by a thick fog, and I couldn't see what was behind it.

Qin Lang frowned and kept staring at the sky, feeling that there was something he was familiar with.

After staring at it for a long time, his gaze seemed to pass through the fog, and he faintly saw a dazzling sharp light.

The sharp light, emitting a trace of gold, was extremely strange, and seemed to contain terrifying power. Qin Lang felt that the familiar storage was this sharp light, but he didn't know what it was at all, and his heart was confused.

He wanted to take a closer look at the sharp light, but the fog reappeared, completely obscuring the sharp light.

This qiē happened extremely quickly, and Qin Lang only felt in a trance, as if the previous scene had not really appeared.

"So, what the hell is it?" Qin Lang muttered, his brows furrowed more and more, and that memory became more and more blurred.

He frowned and looked up at the sky again, it was still a fog, and he couldn't see the one behind him.

Retracting his gaze and burying the doubts in his heart, Qin Lang began to work hard to absorb the strange mist around him, preparing for the cultivation of sword qi.

After a long time, in the room, Qin Lang opened his eyes.

He felt that there was a small cloud of strange gas stored in his body, that is, the mist absorbed in the strange state before, and what he had to do now was to use the special technique from before to urge the mist to operate in his body, and finally turn into sword qi and store it in the dantian.

"The world is vast, and the sword is the guide. Ren Governor is accessible, and the mind is one. Shen condenses a hundred meetings, and looks at the dantian. The origin of vitality, the green and clear!"

Qin Lang closed his eyes again and silently recited this technique, and the mist in his body fluctuated, surging along a special trajectory under the control of his mind.

The mist is constantly surging along the meridians, opening up and expanding the meridians, while the mist gradually becomes thinner and less frequent.

After a week of this, the mist became very small and faint when it reached the dantian, but a trace of peculiar gas appeared beside it.

The gas was as faint as a gossamer, difficult to find without careful observation, but there was a faint sharp aura, as if it was indestructible.

This is sword qi. That strange mist circulated in the body for a week, and finally transformed into a faint sword aura!

Leave the sword qi in the dantian, and urge the magic technique to drive the remaining mist to surging and circulating in the body again.

The spiritual power seeds cultivated by the original spiritual cultivation were also located in the dantian, and at this moment, the appearance of the sword qi caused a strange scene.

I saw that the sword qi that had just appeared surged towards the spiritual power seed on its own without Qin Lang's control, and it was actually attached to it.

"Huh?"

This strange scene immediately caught Qin Lang's attention, he hadn't heard Qin Xiaocang talk about this situation, after all, Qin Xiaocang had chosen to convert spiritual energy into sword qi, and he had never encountered the current situation, and there were not many sword cultivators like Qin Lang on the mainland, and he had never heard that sword qi would be attached to spiritual power seeds.

Qin Lang didn't know if this change was good or bad. I watched for a long time and didn't have a clue. He simply gave up and continued his research, wanting to convert the remaining mist into sword qi to see if it would also be attached to the spiritual power seed.

When a ray of sunlight scattered by the window, Qin Lang finally completed the final transformation. The already small amount of mist in the body dissipated. It transformed into two faint traces of sword qi.

For a sword cultivator who cultivated sword qi for the first time. Being able to cultivate two traces of sword qi in the first night is already a genius.

And when this second trace of sword qi appeared in the dantian, it also automatically surged to the spiritual power seed and attached to it.

"Spirituality is to become a spiritual leader. It is to absorb elements into the body, attach to the spiritual power seed, and gradually take shape and turn into a spirit body. And the sword qi I have cultivated now is attached to the spiritual power seed like an element, can I also cultivate the spirit body?"

Qin Lang opened his eyes and suddenly had this thought in his heart.

"Replace the elements with sword energy...... Maybe it can really work, and at that time, I ...... Hey, do you want to ask the third uncle?"

Qin Lang stared intently at the spiritual power seed with two more traces of sword qi in the dantian, and fell into thoughts.

"Knock Knock"

"Feng'er, are you up?"

Qin Xiaocang's voice came from outside the door, causing Qin Lang to wake up.

Qin Lang stood up, opened the door, and said respectfully, "Third uncle." ”

Qin Xiaocang looked at Qin Lang with a kind smile on his face and asked, "Did you cultivate sword qi last night?"

"Yes. ”

"Oh, how, are there any problems?"

Hearing this, Qin Lang hesitated slightly and shook his head.

Qin Xiaocang saw Qin Lang's momentary hesitation, but he didn't break it, and said with a slight smile: "Sword qi can't be cultivated overnight, don't worry, take your time, if you don't understand anything, you can come and ask me at any time." ”

"Yes. ”

"Later, follow me to the mercenary union, hand over the task, and buy some gifts for Yan'er by the way. Qin Xiaocang said.

Qin Lang nodded, thinking of Yan'er, he couldn't help but smile, thinking about what gift to buy for her.

The night is a happy time for most people in Ningyang City, but now that they have had a good night, they have gone to rest, and the early morning is relatively clean.

However, there are still many pedestrians on the streets, and small stalls selling breakfast are also set up, and several shops on both sides of the street have also opened early.

Qin Xiaocang took Qin Lang out of the hotel and went straight to the branch tower of the mercenary union here.

The mercenary union of Ningyang City is located in the middle of the city, and the branch tower is also a five-story spire, but the tower is depicted with a huge sun totem.

The appearance of the branch tower represents the attributes and strength of the tower owner, the fifth floor represents that he is a five-star mercenary, and the sun depicted on the wall represents that he is a spiritual cultivator of the light system.

In Rex, five-star mercenaries are extremely rare, and the highest level of storage zài is six-star, which is only a handful. As long as you can become a four-star mercenary, you can be regarded as a strong person in the mercenary world and be known to the world.

There weren't many people in front of the branch tower, here and there, and the two guards stood there yawning and listless.

At this time, a woman in red came from the other side of the street, frowned when she saw the appearance of the guard, and snorted heavily.

This cold snort was like thunder, causing the two guards to shiver and immediately come to their senses.

When he saw the visitor, he looked embarrassed, bowed his head and said respectfully, "Miss." ”

"Hmph, I'm lazy early in the morning, I'm going to sue my father. The woman in red said angrily with a cold face.

"Miss, we know that we are wrong, don't sue the tower master. ”

"Yes, we know that we are wrong, and we will never dare to be lazy anymore. ”

"Miss, you have a lot of them, so forgive us this time. ”

"We will never dare to be lazy again in the future, and if we make this mistake again, we will be punished by the young lady. ”

The two guards grimaced. He pleaded with the woman in red.

"Just this once, not for example! Stand up straight, someone is coming. The woman in red put away her anger, saw Qin Xiaocang and the two coming, said so, and entered the branch tower.

"Miss Xie. When the two guards heard this, they shook their spirits and stood up straight, revealing a sense of might.

Qin Lang and Qin Xiaocang saw this scene from a distance, and Qin Lang didn't care about it. Qin Xiaocang looked at the woman in red and smiled in his heart. He whispered, "That's the daughter of Lord Uta, it's interesting." I heard that the talent is good, just in his early twenties, but he is already a triple heavenly spirit leader. I think that I will be able to surpass his father in the future.

There are almost three years to go. The national contest is about to begin again. The domestic selection should be held in two years, and I think she will participate in it and get a good ranking. ”

In its murmuring. The two arrived at the branch tower.

Unsurprisingly, the two guards both cast puzzled glances at Qin Lang, after all, Qin Lang was only a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy no matter how he looked at it, and he was incompatible with the mercenary union.

The layout in the hall is the same as that of Kunluo City, and there is not much difference, except that there are not many mercenaries in the branch tower at this time, scattered sporadically, or viewing, accepting tasks, or talking to each other and exchanging information.

Qin Xiaocang asked Qin Lang to submit the task alone, and he came to the window dedicated to submitting the task, and handed over the mercenary badge, the mercenary manual, and the certificate given by Sang Luo Town.

On the opposite side of the window was a young man, who took the things and looked at Qin Lang suspiciously, and then carefully looked at the three things one by one.

The certificate given by Sang Luo Town had the town's official seal on it, and roughly described the battle and Qin Lang's expression, and they were very satisfied with Qin Lang and extremely grateful.

And this is the assessment and evaluation of Qin Lang's completion of this mission, and the mercenary union will use this as a voucher to record in the mercenary manual.

After a long time, the man was finally convinced that Qin Lang was a mercenary, and he had completed the starless high-level task well, and was highly evaluated.

"Congratulations, Mr. Qin, you have completed a starless high-level mission, as long as you complete four more tasks of the same level, and then when you cultivate to reach the sword leader, you can become a one-star mercenary. You are welcome to accept the assignment again. The man said with a smile, and handed the mercenary manual and mercenary badge back to Qin Lang.

There are two conditions for star promotion, one is the improvement of cultivation, and the other is the amount of tasks completed.

From starless to one-star, you need to have the cultivation of Jiankui or Lingkui as the foundation, and then complete five starless advanced tasks.

Among them, 3 starless intermediate missions can replace one starless advanced, and 3 low levels can replace one intermediate level. In other words, if you want to do the simplest starless low-level mission, you need to complete 45 of them.

Of course, if you directly complete more than two one-star missions, it is considered to be up to standard.

Qin Lang didn't stay long when he retrieved his things, he wanted to return to Qin Xiaocang's side, and then leave together.

At this time, the woman in red came down from upstairs and happened to appear in front of Qin Lang.

The close contact made Qin Lang clearly see the woman's appearance.

I have to say that this is a stunning woman who captivates the country and the city.

I saw his long wavy red hair, particularly bright and charming, white and tender skin, which can be broken by blowing, crystal red lips, revealing a seductive atmosphere, a tall nose, charming Danfeng eyes and two curved willow eyebrows, outlining delicate and flawless facial features.

Dressed in red with a sexy figure, it is concave and convex, which is infuriating.

Even if it is a love saint who has read countless women, he can't help but be moved when he suddenly faces such a peerless beauty, and he is stunned on the spot, not to mention that the young Qin Lang has faced such a beauty once upon a time.

Although Qin Lang's temperament became a little withdrawn and indifferent, he was a man with strong blood after all, and when he saw the woman in red, his cheeks couldn't help but turn red, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

"Little brother, are you also a mercenary?" The woman in red did not feel any discomfort, glanced at the mercenary manual and badge in Qin Lang's hand, and asked with a slight smile.

Qin Lang nodded silently, walked around the side with his head down, and came to Qin Xiaocang's side.

Seeing this scene, Qin Xiaocang nodded at the woman in red, and then left with Qin Lang.

"That person is only fourteen or fifteen years old, I didn't expect to become a mercenary, I wonder if I can become a strong man like my father in the future?" The woman in red looked at Qin Lang's distant back and said secretly, "By the way, a few days ago, Aunt You came back and mentioned to me a little mercenary named Qin Lang, I wonder if it's him?"

Out of the branch tower, Qin Lang and Qin Xiaocang did not mention the previous scene. Qin Xiaocang looked around and led Qin Lang to the west.

A moment later, there was an entrance to the market in front of me, where all kinds of things were traded.

At this time, there were more pedestrians on the street, and there were faint sounds of selling and noise in the trading place.

The two of them walked inside, and soon they saw those who sold swords, those who supplied spiritual instruments, and those who supplied daily necessities, gold and silver jewelry.

Qin Lang looked around. I saw a shop that sold jewelry. said to Qin Xiaocang: "Third uncle, I want to go there to have a look." ”

Qin Xiaocang glanced at it and said, "Okay, you wait for me there." ”

After speaking. Qin Xiaocang continued to walk forward. And Qin Lang walked towards the shop.

The shop pù has apparently just opened. There were no guests yet, there was only one guy inside, yawning and yawning.

The man saw someone coming. At first, he was excited, and immediately greeted him enthusiastically, but after seeing Qin Lang, his face changed, and he scolded: "Where did you come from, child, this is not the place for you to stay, go away." ”

Qin Lang was not angry and took out the mercenary badge.

"Huh, mercenary, such a small mercenary?" the man was stunned, his mind full of doubts, but he didn't drive him away.

Qin Lang paced to the counter and looked at it one by one, there were all kinds of jewelry, including hairpins, bracelets, rings, jade pendants, etc., which were dazzling.

As he was watching, Qin Lang's soul trembled suddenly, as if something had attracted him.

He walked slowly, looked at the same jewelry, and finally fixed his eyes on a simple, dark ring.

The ring is placed at the very edge, which looks ordinary, and the style is a little rustic, not at all noticeable.

However, at this moment, Qin Lang's soul was constantly trembling slightly, which seemed a little strange.

Qin Lang tried to exude a wisp of spiritual power beyond ordinary people, approaching the ancient ring, while his gaze shifted elsewhere, not attracting the attention of the guy.

The spiritual power is invisible, and that guy is just an ordinary person, without the slightest notice.

When that wisp of spiritual power touched the ancient ring, suddenly, a suction force came out of the ring, and it was sucked away.

"Huh?"

Qin Lang was shocked in his heart, this strange scene meant that this ancient ring must be extraordinary, and he was immediately overjoyed.

He came here to choose a gift for Qin Yan'er, but he didn't expect to have an adventure and find a treasure.

"Man, how much is that butterfly hairpin?" Qin Lang didn't look at the ancient ring, but pointed to a golden and beautifully styled butterfly hairpin.

Hearing this, the guy showed a flattering smile and said, "Objectively, this hairpin only needs eighteen silver coins." ”

Eighteen silver coins may not sound like much, but it is twice the monthly income of ordinary people, which is enough to see that this hairpin is not ordinary, but it is not the best quality.

"Yes. Qin Lang replied lightly, and then looked at the hairpin carefully, revealing a look of affection.

Seeing this, the guy immediately stepped forward to introduce the advantages of this hairpin, and said that it was quite precious.

Qin Lang nodded, casually glanced at the counter, suddenly stopped at the strange ancient ring, and couldn't help asking, "How much is the ring?"

"Objectively, the ring is an antique, worth 14 silver coins. ”

"14 silver coins?" Qin Lang shook his head and said, "I like this hairpin very much, and I am also a little interested in that ring, if you can make it cheaper, I will buy it together." ”

After speaking, Qin Lang didn't look at the buddy, he was not worried or anxious, and continued to look at the butterfly hairpin.

"This ......," the guy seemed to hesitate a little, and sighed, "That's it, objective, you are the first guest of the day, and I will give you some discounts." What do you think of these two things being sold together for 30 silver coins?"

"Okay, you can help me put that hairpin up. Qin Lang no longer counter-offered, took one bite and took out 30 silver coins from his pocket.

This is the reward for completing the previous task, and all of it has been taken out.

The guy was overjoyed, and it was a good fortune to make a business not long after it opened.

What made the guy even more happy was that the ancient ring had been in the store for many years, and no one cared about it, and the shopkeeper had long hoped that someone would buy it, and the original price was indeed 14 silver coins, but now as long as it can be sold, even if it is a few silver coins cheaper, it will be fine.

After completing this task, the shopkeeper will surely compliment him.

The previous hesitation and sigh were just posturing.

But he didn't know that Qin Lang was even more surprised than him in his heart.

The guy collected the money and was busy wrapping the hairpin, while Qin Lang picked up the ancient ring and glanced at it before cautiously putting it into his arms. Now is not the time to research.

Soon, the guy handed Qin Lang a beautiful wooden box, and in the box was the hairpin that was going to be given to Qin Yan'er. The guy smiled and sent Qin Lang out of the store: "Objective, you go slowly, welcome to come again next time." ”

Qin Lang nodded slightly, took a few steps, and waited for Qin Xiaocang there.

Not long after, Qin Xiaocang came back, holding a brocade box in his hand. Apparently there is a gain.

Both of them bought their things. He didn't stay any longer, and when he went out of the trading ground, Qin Xiaocang took Qin Lang to visit Ningyang City and saw a lot of interesting things.

Time flies. In the blink of an eye, it was night again. Qin Lang and the others returned to the hotel after seeing the different prosperity of the night.

As soon as Qin Lang arrived at the hotel. He locked himself in his room again.

After a whole day, he finally had a chance to take a closer look at the strange ancient ring.

Carefully took the ancient ring from his bosom and placed it on the table. It looks very ordinary, and there is nothing unusual about it.

After looking at it for a long time, there was no difference, Qin Lang once again exuded a trace of spiritual power and approached it.

When that trace of spiritual power touched the ancient ring, a strange scene happened again, and a suction force suddenly came, sucking that spiritual power away.

Seeing this scene, Qin Lang suddenly came to his senses, his eyes were fixed on the ancient ring, and he once again exuded a trace of spiritual power.

This time he moved extremely slowly, preoccupied, trying to see something mysterious.

The trace of spiritual power slowly approached, and at the moment of touching, a suction force came from the ancient ring, and it was absorbed and walked away in the blink of an eye.

Qin Lang's eyes lit up, and he was surprised in his heart: "Why is it that the spiritual power that has been absorbed has been cut off, so that I can't investigate the situation in the ring? I don't believe that I can't help you, I will definitely find out today!"

Thinking of this, his spiritual power exploded in full force and swept towards the ancient ring.

Since Qin Lang's spiritual power is stronger than that of ordinary people, it is a major feature, in order to make good use of this advantage, he has read the few books on spiritual power in his family to learn to apply it simply.

According to the books, people with strong mental powers, such as illusionists, can use mental power instead of their eyes and ears to observe things around them, which is a basic ability.

The first few times he wanted to observe the ancient rings with this, but his spiritual power would be inexplicably sucked away, and the connection with him was cut off, making it impossible for him to investigate.

A powerful spiritual power slammed into the ancient ring, and a strange power surged in an instant, inhaling it, but this time it did not immediately cut off the connection between them.

Qin Lang suddenly found that the inside of the ancient ring was pitch black, and there was a rapidly rotating vortex in the center, and his spiritual power was attracted by it, and then swallowed by it.

In the blink of an eye, the influx of spiritual power was absorbed by it, and it was about to break off the connection between it and Qin Lang.

At the moment when the spiritual power was about to be completely swept into the whirlpool, a fluttering voice came from nowhere.

"Put on the ring!"

Qin Lang, who was already in shock, was stunned for a moment, and the next moment he completely disconnected from his spiritual power and returned to the room.

"This ......" Qin Lang stared at the ancient ring on the table in a daze, and the previous fluttering voice kept echoing in his ears.

This ancient ring was so weird that Qin Lang didn't know if he should wear it according to what the voice said. Maybe after putting it on, the confusion in your heart will be solved, or it may be a trap that puts you in danger.

However, Qin Lang didn't hesitate for long, gritted his teeth, picked up the ancient ring, and put it on his left index finger.

When the ring was close to the ring, the ring automatically changed in size, and it was worn smoothly and fastened tightly on the index finger.

Qin Lang had seen this scene before, but it was on the six-grade magic weapon earth spirit ring, which was enough to show that this ancient ring was definitely not an ordinary ring.

In an instant, Qin Lang's eyes darkened, and the next moment he found that it was pitch black all around, and there was a slowly rotating whirlpool in the center, and he actually appeared in the ancient ring!

With a flash of panic, he quickly calmed down and walked through the dark void towards the whirlpool, the only existence here.

"Very good, you are here......"

Suddenly, the mysterious and strange voice floated in this pitch-black space again, Qin Lang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked around to raise his vigilance.

The whirlpool was not far away, and it didn't take long for Qin Lang to be less than ten zhang away from it.

An attraction faintly came from the whirlpool, and it was closer. Only then did I realize that the whirlpool was huge, and its rotation speed was not as fast as before, it became quite slow, and it even seemed to be still up close.

"Where is this?What is this whirlpool?And where does it lead?" Qin Lang said softly, as if talking to himself, as if asking about the fluttering voice.

But it was silent, and there was no sound answering him, only the slight sound of his own breathing and footsteps.

Getting closer, Qin Lang frowned, and there were many doubts in his heart.

Suddenly. The ethereal voice finally sounded again.

"Haha. It's finally here, finally let me wait for you!"

"Come in, get into the whirlpool!"

Hearing this, Qin Lang's frowning brows tightened and he stopped. Don't dare to approach lightly.

"Kids. Come on in. I'm not going to hurt you. ”

The voice came out again, Qin Lang couldn't detect it at first, but now he realized it when he got closer. This voice also wafted out from the whirlpool, and he also allowed himself to enter the whirlpool, and the spiritual power that was attracted into the whirlpool was also in the whirlpool, and it seemed that the secrets of a qiē were in this whirlpool.

Qin Lang silently stared at the rather huge whirlpool less than ten zhang away in front of him, and fell into hesitation.

"Don't be afraid, child, the old man won't hurt you. Enter the whirlpool, and the old man will give you a great creation!"

The voice threw out a temptation, Qin Lang didn't know if it was really an adventure or if the other party had a plan.

After a long time, Qin Lang did not take another step.

The owner of the voice seemed to be waiting a little anxiously, and said again: "Child, the old man really didn't lie to you, the old man's name is Duan Tianqiu, and he is also a well-known figure in the Heavenly Spirit Continent, how could he deceive you!"

Qin Lang was unmoved, still staying in place, as if thinking.

"Hey, child, you're too careful, old man, tell you the truth. The old man was originally a famous sword cultivator, and you are also a sword cultivator, and unlike the sword cultivators on the Heavenly Spirit Continent now, you are taking the path of pure sword cultivation!"

Qin Lang could have pretended not to have heard the words before, but what he said behind this voice attracted Qin Lang's attention, and he was even more puzzled in his heart: "Huh, pure sword cultivation?"

Seeing that Qin Lang still didn't speak or move forward, the voice continued: "Kid, you just started cultivating sword qi, you still have spiritual power seeds in your body, right?

These words really shocked Qin Lang's heart, turning up a monstrous wave, if Qin Xiaocang heard it, he would be even more dumbfounded.

When Qin Lang cultivated sword qi before, he had the idea of replacing the elements with sword qi, but he didn't expect to hear such an amazing news here now, which confirmed that his idea was actually correct!

But on the Heavenly Spirit Continent, in the past thousands of years, most of the sword cultivators who cultivated sword qi were perceived out of thin air, and they didn't need spiritual power seeds, and they never heard that someone cultivating sword qi would cooperate with spiritual power seeds to form a sword spirit.

"Why should I believe what you said? The third uncle of the sword cultivator has taught me about the cultivation of sword qi, which is completely inconsistent with what you said. Qin Lang finally spoke, "How do you know the storage of spiritual power seeds and sword qi in my body?"

"Kid, I really didn't lie to you. I've been waiting for you for a long, long time, and I've forgotten the time. I used to be a sword cultivator, a pure sword cultivator, but unfortunately now there is only one soul left. However, my soul power is still quite strong, I can sense the outside world through this soul ring, and I can see through your body.

My sword cultivation lineage has existed for tens of thousands of years, and the initial sword cultivation method is almost the same as spiritual cultivation, and the strength is also comparable.

But I don't know why, a long time ago, after waking up from a deep sleep, the first sword cultivator he encountered, he didn't have a spiritual power seed in his body, only sword qi. Later, I learned that on the mainland, most of the sword cultivators had become like this, and only a very few people were still the same as in the past.

In this way, the difficulty of sword cultivation has plummeted, and even people who have no spiritual power foundation and cannot condense spiritual power seeds can become sword cultivators, and the cultivation speed is even faster than before. But that kind of sword cultivation is no longer pure, and its power is greatly reduced, and compared to spiritual cultivation of the same level, it is completely inferior.

And more importantly, with such cultivation, the foundation is indeed lowered, and the cultivation at the beginning is very simple, but it will become more difficult later on, and it is almost impossible to become a powerful sword cultivator. ”

"What!" Qin Lang was stunned, and heard an astonishing message again. (To be continued......)
