Chapter 175: There is a secret realm beyond the plateau
Jiang Ci did not dodge or dodge, and fell straight to the pliers, at the moment of contact, his right foot exerted a slight force, and with a slight step, the shrimp claws with teeth and claws suddenly split apart, revealing white and tender muscles.
With a snort, the lobster actually made a sound, screaming and jumping wildly, and its dense hind limbs kept shrinking back, trying to get away from this terrifying human.
It didn't expect today's prey to be so perverted, chopping its proud armor with a single kick.
In fact, this is still Jiang Ci's strength, otherwise with the power of stepping on the thunder technique, he can step on its head with one foot.
Jiang Ci landed lightly on the monster's head, picked up the big pincers that fell to the ground with one hand, and stomped down along the carapace with the other to calm it down.
"Let's go, take me around, and if you find the Split Sky Amethyst, I'll spare your life." Jiang Cipan sat down, patted its head, and looked at the two red lanterns floating in the air.
The lobster was very confused, and didn't know what the Split Sky Amethyst was, but it understood what Jiang Ci meant, which was to use itself as a mount.
This monster is used to being the king and hegemon, where can he bear this breath, and immediately arched his back, looking like he was going to throw Jiang Ci down.
Jiang Ci didn't get used to it, and directly hammered it down, and immediately split the armor apart, and the yellow and white things could be faintly seen.
The lobster immediately calmed down, stepped on the ground steadily, and began to crawl in the direction of Jiang Ci's finger, glancing at it with his eyes from time to time to judge which speed would satisfy the humans on his back.
Jiang Ci was very pleased with this and began to deal with the tattered shrimp claws in his hand. He took out the largest piece of shrimp meat, then packed it with a shrimp shell, squeezed a few pieces of spirit fruit slurry picked casually, and then a wisp of black flame popped out of the palm of his hand, and placed it under the shrimp shell to carefully control the temperature and grill.
When the slurry boiled and the fragrant shrimp meat was cooked, Jiang Ci began to gulp, constantly refining the rich spiritual power in it to gather the Purple Mansion.
Underneath, the monster who was running wildly smelled the fragrance and was a little curious, and secretly glanced at it with his eyes, almost unable to stabilize his body in shock.
What kind of demon is this, enslaving him while eating his flesh on him? Seeing the two red lanterns staring at him resentfully, Jiang Ci smiled and handed over the food in his hand: "Why don't you taste it?" The lobster's delicate body trembled, and she didn't dare to peek at it anymore, so she lowered her eyes and looked forward.
"Can you still grow these pincers?" While eating, Jiang Ci suddenly asked. The monster nodded aggrievedly, a little unclear.
If this is the case, isn't there endless demon meat? He had a whim, but in the end he dispelled this somewhat perverted idea.
The lobster only felt a chill on his body, and immediately sped up again. At night, the two eyes of the lobster really lit up like lanterns, dispelling the darkness of more than ten meters around, Jiang Ci sat on its back, walking through the mountains and forests, but several hours passed, and there was no trace of the appearance of cracked amethyst, but along the way I saw a few ordinary elixirs of the same grade.
He was a little disappointed, but knew that this kind of thing would not come in a hurry, so he continued on his way and headed deep into the plateau.
The further in, the more demons there are, and the stronger the strength becomes, if he hadn't taken out a raptor at the peak of the Spirit Attraction Realm, this lobster would have been intimidated and didn't dare to continue walking.
Here, the interval between light and darkness was fifteen hours, and when it was about to dawn, Jiang Ci finally discovered the traces of what was suspected to be a cracked amethyst.
I don't know if this is good luck or bad luck, after all, the plateau is too vast. After a night, the lobster at this time was so tired that he couldn't even lift the pincers, and he couldn't catch up with the diamond-shaped purple tail light in the sky.
"Alright, let you go." Jiang Ci glared at his feet, and suddenly rose to the sky, stepped on the thick ancient tree, stepped over a distance of dozens of meters in one step, jumped in the mountains and forests, and chased after the purple.
Seeing this, the lobster immediately ran away in a panic, quickly dug a big hole in the ground, buried himself in it, and kept going down, making up his mind not to show his head again for the next three months.
Jiang Ci jumped in the canopy, and the thunder trick was used to the extreme, and the speed was almost pulled out of the phantom, but he couldn't catch up at all, the purple seemed to be shuttling in space, appearing and disappearing, very mysterious.
But this also made Jiang Ci confirm its identity, after all, the Split Sky Amethyst is like this. He didn't give up, and continued to launch an extremely fast pursuit, the vast spiritual power in the Purple Mansion was his greatest reliance, and after eating and drinking enough on the back of the lobster, even if he ran wildly for ten hours, it was not a problem at all.
It's just that after the purple color disappeared again, it actually appeared at a height of 100 meters, and Jiang Ci couldn't even stand on the treetops.
Fortunately, there was a demon bird that didn't open his eyes and attacked him as a prey, but he was countered, Jiang Ci rode behind it, grabbed Ling Yu at the back of his head and said, "Chase me up, or I'll die." The pressure of the breath from the Purple Mansion made the demon bird tremble, and it leaped into the air with its wings spread.
Flying monsters are indeed very convenient in the sky, this is the closest Jiang Ci has come to purple, right in front of him, a palm-sized diamond-shaped stone shuttles through the void, and mysterious veins circulate on it.
There was not a trace of air movement around it, as if it was not in this realm at all, Jiang Cigang reached out to grab it, but it only fished out a void, it escaped directly into the void, and when it reappeared, it was already thousands of meters away.
"Hurry up, or I'll pluck you and wash it on the grill!" Jiang Ci rode on his back and urged. The demon bird suddenly let out a sharp whistling sound, and it almost used all the strength to eat milk.
However, until it foamed at the mouth, it was far from being able to catch up with the Split Sky Amethyst, seeing that the stone was about to fly into the sea, Jiang Ci simply jumped down, and the person stopped a few times in mid-air and landed on the ground safely.
With the blessing of the speed of stepping on the thunder trick, Jiang Ci was like a rampage mammoth, ignoring the ancient wood boulder blocking in front of him, and directly smashed all of them, rushing towards a touch of purple in the sky.
It's a pity that after all, it can't be overwhelmed, and Jiang Ci can only watch it disappear into the sea level. He was not willing to fail like this, and a fierce man plunged into the sea and swam forward against the current.
As a result, Jiang Ci encountered an unexpected situation, after swimming hundreds of meters, he was actually stopped by a milky white barrier, no matter how hard he tried, he could no longer move forward.
Could it be that this is the boundary of the secret realm? Jiang Ci felt very weird, because this was different from what he saw in the secret realm of the Zhang family, the boundary was chaos, not like this.
He dived down, but he couldn't break through until he reached the bottom of the sea, and even if he dug through the soft sand, he would still be blocked by a wall of air.
Half an hour later, Jiang Ci surfaced, his face was puzzled, the amethyst that had just been cracked disappeared here, could it be that he had shuttled through the space?
He held his breath as a white tiger roared behind him, and the next moment, the razor-sharp fist prints smashed against the barrier, causing a wave of waves, but that was all.
However, although he couldn't shake it, Jiang Ci found something different, and when he was fluctuating, he seemed to see a touch of emerald green emerging behind the milky white barrier.
Jiang Ci decided to try again, and this time he used all his strength, and his right fist became crystal clear, and with a thud, it slammed into the barrier like a drum.
There was another wave of ripples, taking this opportunity, Jiang Ci's eyes were like fire, and the two golden rays became brighter and brighter in his eyes, and finally they were like two golden dragons swimming in his eyes.
The originally blurry picture was clearly seen this time, it turned out that behind the barrier, there was actually a bigger island, no, it was no longer an island, because it was so big that it was boundless, it was simply a new continent.
Originally, I thought that this plateau desert island was already very exaggerated, but I didn't expect this secret realm to be dozens of times bigger.
No wonder the chaebols are crazy, countless heavenly treasures will indeed be born here, maybe the Split Sky Amethyst comes from there.
In that shocking glance, Jiang Ci even saw some wreckage, like some kind of machinery, he was thoughtful, no wonder the chaebols let go, it turned out that this was only a small part of the secret realm, the real world, behind the barrier, they must have mastered the way to enter.
After another hour of delay in the sea, Jiang Ci dispelled this idea and returned to the shore after finding that he could not be brute-forced.
The next day, he went full speed along the border of the coastline, never seeing the Rift Amethyst again, and finding that the entire island should be barricaded, unable to enter the real world within.
Jiang Ci was very depressed, he couldn't catch the Split Sky Amethyst, but now he can't see it, and he can't come out of the lock on the other side of the sea.
"Can we only go to Helian Liuli?" The official has lost the opportunity, and at present, only the six chaebols should know the way to get in, but with his identity as Jiang Ye, he will only be guarded, and others will not let such a terrifying opponent enter.
If it is Jiang Ci's identity, it would be a perfect choice to pull a relationship from Helian Liuli, but he just rejected others, and now he needs to find it again, isn't it a bit too scummy?
Jiang Ci was very embarrassed, but there was no way, he felt that he could only waste time here, instead of waiting for Yan Yuye to come out and try it together, it was better to go first to find out, otherwise if the Split Sky Amethyst was found by others, it would be a little troublesome.
Having made up his mind, Jiang Ci began to return the same way, stepping out of the clouds at the entrance, and when he opened his eyes again, he returned to the real world.
There are artificial islands and reefs built in the sea area, so there is also a place to stay when waiting for the boat, but Jiang Ci is impatient, and he swims back directly after less than ten kilometers of travel.
"Damn, this brother is so fierce." The transcendents who were waiting to return together exclaimed when they saw this. Another person gloated: "At first glance, he is a newcomer, and he must not even understand the rules of the new city, and if he swims back like this, he will definitely be eaten by the monsters in the sea." When Jiang Ci caught a big fish and returned to the dock, because he didn't bring a mobile phone, he simply sold it directly to the staff under the chaebol guarding nearby, and took the money to take a taxi to the Zhang family's office here.
"Mr. Jiang, are you back?" As soon as he saw Jiang Ci, Zhang Xingyu immediately greeted him, with a smile on his face.
Jiang Ci nodded: "Xiao Zhang, please help me find a room, and by the way, find out all the recent news and news about the new city and the secret realm." ”
"Okay, I'll take you upstairs first." Zhang Xingyu was busy and bent down to respond, Jiang Ci's guidance the day before yesterday helped her a lot, and now she has not only broken through to the late stage of the Spirit Attraction Realm, but also learned the spell that she couldn't understand before.
For her, this is a presence that can turn stones into gold. Xiao Zhang's work efficiency is very high, and by the time Jiang Ci came out refreshing after taking a shower, she had already sorted out all the materials and put them in the study.
However, most of the content is useless to Jiang Ci, a person who has already entered the plateau, and only the news about the six chaebols can attract his attention.
And in the two days since he disappeared, there was big news, and the big people of the Fang family's Purple Mansion Realm also found something to prolong their life in the secret realm, which is more than a dozen silver-white mushrooms, it is said that one plant can extend life for two years, which makes people envious and jealous.
"How come I've never seen this place before?" Jiang Ci watched the news of the Fang family repeatedly, and found that the background was not anywhere he had seen on the plateau, and at the end of the picture, there was a rushing and roaring river.
There are only streams on the plateau that melt from the snow-capped mountains, and there is absolutely no such big river. He went to watch the previous video about the Oriental Family, and also found that the geomorphological difference was not possible, at least the distant volcanic outline could not be on the plateau.
These strange things that can increase longevity must have been obtained by them in the secret realm opposite the barrier. This increased Jiang Ci's determination to go there, and the rare artifact of Split Sky Amethyst could only come from there.
After a moment of silence, he sent a message to the monkey, indicating his thoughts and asking him to contact Helian Ruri again.
Soon, the monkey's phone called: "Damn, Jiang Ci, you're so embarrassed, you don't have that face to go to the contact house, just pit me." was broken by the monkey's words, he did not panic at all, and said righteously: "Monkey, I am creating an opportunity for you, you can contact more, maybe you will be looked down upon by the Helian family and dragged to be a son-in-law?" The monkey sneered: "Get out of the calf, don't bluff Lao Tzu, I think Miss Helian is very attentive to you, otherwise I wouldn't have thought of you after so long, so you should have a good relationship with yourself." With two beeps, a busy tone came from the phone, and then the monkey sent Helian Liuli's phone number.
It's not necessary, because
"Jiang Ye" knew that it was nothing more than the monkey deliberately teasing him. Since the monkey entered Guoan, he has become more and more like an old fritter, and he is not as honest as before, alas.
Jiang Ci was very sorry, picked up his mobile phone and started dialing, but he was still embarrassed, and edited the text message and sent it: Hello Miss Helian, I am Xiahou's friend Jiang Ci, I just came out of retreat, I heard that you have something to find me, I don't know if it has been solved now.
As the so-called white lies are not called deception, so that everyone has a step down, and it is not embarrassing, how good.
Jiang Ci comforted himself, under the leadership of Xiao Zhang, he went to enjoy a seafood dinner, and just about to go back to the residence, the mobile phone rang, he picked it up and saw that the caller ID was actually Helian Liuli.
Inexplicably, Jiang Ci was actually a little nervous, he faked a cough, and said calmly: "Hey, hello." A quiet voice came from the other side of the phone, which made people listen like a spring breeze: "Hello, Mr. Jiang, I'm Helian Liuli, congratulations on your breakthrough." I couldn't tell what my mood was from my voice, and Helian Liuli didn't mention what happened before, and actually congratulated him on the lie that came out of retreat.
Sure enough, sincerity is nirvana, which made Jiang Ci very embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Thank you." The gentle words sounded again: "Mr. Jiang, I am very willing to cooperate with you, but at present, I have already left for Donghai New Town, and if I can, I hope to meet you there." ”
"Of course, if it's inconvenient for you, you can go to Jiangcheng City first, and I will arrange for someone from the family to pick you up." Helian Liuli's voice was very sincere, it was obviously not polite, and with Jiang Ci's understanding of her, she didn't look like a person who could say polite words.
Originally, Jiang Ci thought that if she still had intentions, she would leave Xincheng and go to Jiangcheng first, so she lied, but she didn't expect that people had already arrived.
Naturally, he replied conveniently, so the two ended a brief exchange. Under the night of the new city, Jiang Ci was a little emotional, every time he came into contact with Helian Liuli, he could feel from her a kind of ethereal meaning of being independent although she was in the downtown area, neither the pride of the children of the family, nor the deliberate lowering of her stature to be approachable.
There is no careful thinking of those flies and dogs, but it is not a white lotus, and it has a calm bearing. This is the heir of the big family, which has the meaning of being dignified and magnificent.
It's just that after all, she is not very old, and occasionally she has a little daughter's temperament, remembering that when she saved her, she kicked her ass in a bad way, and then she was returned to him, Jiang Ci was a little funny.
Since Helian Liuli is already on her way here, then she will wait for the night. After saying goodbye to Xiao Zhang, Jiang Ci decided to go to the dock to have a look, maybe he could find out some unexpected news, but as soon as he went, he was stopped by a transcendent man in a suit and leather shoes with oily hair.
He smiled enthusiastically: "Brother, you just came, this is to go to the secret realm?" Jiang Ci nodded, not feeling malice, and stopped to hear what he was going to do.
He first handed over a business card with both hands, and what was printed on it was actually a certain labor, and Jiang Ci was confused.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I made the mistake, this is the previous one." The transcendent man patted his head and smiled, changed it, and introduced himself, saying that it was an intermediary, specially for a chaebol to gather people.
"You should know about the marrow and the silver mushroom, right?" Jiang Ci nodded and motioned for him to continue. He smiled and said: "As of this afternoon, nearly 10,000 batches of transcendents and monks have entered the secret realm, they are all the same as your brother, all of them have extraordinary talents, but most of them have not been satisfied, although there are a lot of spiritual fruits and elixirs in it, but most of the plateau has been transformed, and they have not found that kind of strange thing." Jiang Ci has a deep understanding of this, he just ran for two days, but he didn't catch the Split Sky Amethyst, let alone see a strange thing that could make the chaebol crazy.
However, he knew that this was because there was a secret realm beyond the barrier, and now that this intermediary said so, did he also know the inside story?
But it shouldn't be possible, after all, Zhang Xingyu doesn't know that although the Zhang family was excluded this time, it is not as good as an intermediary.
The intermediary god said mysteriously: "Brother, this is because there is a secret in that plateau, and only those who master that secret can have a big harvest, so the chaebols can be full of money." ”
"Oh? What secret? Jiang Ci looked very interested. Seeing this, the intermediary shook his head: "Brother said it was funny, how could this kind of secret be known." ”
"But, right now, there's such an opportunity to let you know that secret too, brother."
"How?" Jiang Ci asked him, and when he contacted the identity of the intermediary, he had already guessed. The intermediary said with a smile: "After the negotiation of the six chaebols, they decided to bring more self-motivated casual cultivators, saying that they could take everyone to the secret realm to find treasures." He continued to add: "There is my way, as long as you join the Wu Group, brother, you can leave tomorrow, and you will not be charged any fees, and then follow them into the secret realm, and then I am afraid that there will be no way to find a baby?" "That's nice, isn't this just recruiting people?
Jiang Ci laughed in his heart, and at the same time was a little puzzled, what was there on the side of the barrier, so that these chaebols actually wanted to recruit outsiders temporarily, could it be that they encountered powerful monsters and suffered heavy losses?
Seeing that Jiang Ci was silent, the intermediary let it go again
"Ruthless move": "Brother, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you enter the secret realm by yourself, not to mention the harvest, I am afraid that there is still a danger to your life when you meet a monster, if you follow the Wu family, not only is it stable, but after you come out, you can also turn positive, and then all the eight insurances and three golds will help you pay, and you will have no worries about practicing from now on." "Hmm...... It is indeed very tempting, Jiang Ci accepted the business card and said that he would consider it carefully.
Then he continued to wander through the crowd and saw several intermediaries recruiting people, as well as the chaebol itself.
In less than half an hour, someone stopped him again, still with the same rhetoric, but with a very conscientious attitude that he would not charge any intermediary fees.
Jiang Ci listened to him patiently, wanting to get some more unexpected news.
"Brother, I believe you have also met my peers, let me tell you, this is indeed an opportunity, but you must also keep your eyes clear, many things have inside stories. For example, the Wu family, after we disperse and cultivate, we not only have to obey orders, but we have to do whatever they arrange, and the harvest is still seventy-three accounts, and what is even worse is that they have the right of first refusal, that is, you get the thirty percent, if the master proposes to buy it with money, you must agree. But the employer behind me is different, there are no such rules and regulations at all, and they are absolutely fair. Jiang Ci looked unaware and clenched his fists with both hands: "Dare to ask who is the employer behind Your Excellency?" The intermediary looked unfathomable: "Brother, we are righteous teachers, not the same as the chaebol." Jiang Ci understood in an instant, daring to love is that the official is secretly digging into the corner, but eighty percent of the news is not as much as he knows.
