Otherworldly Chapter 87: The Crystal Test
Until he returned home, Su You Baishan didn't say a word to the two young ladies, but he saw a trace of worry in their eyes.
Sun Tianci was also worried, that is, he was not optimistic about Su You's strength, and he was afraid that he would be defeated and humiliated.
Sun Tianen patted the two of them on the shoulder to show his support for them. It's not a life-and-death duel, it's a big deal to admit defeat, he doesn't have much to worry about, but appreciates their courage.
On this night, in addition to an unexpected duel battle, Su You and Bai Shan had close contact with the wealthy families and royal nobles in the upper echelons of the imperial capital, and they gained a lot.
After leaving the banquet, the two asked Sun Tianen a lot of things. The name of the deputy head of Tu Sanzhen was Tu Sanzhen, and he was a master of the late stage of the Divine Movement, ranking sixth among the eight deputy heads of the Mirror Moon Division. Tu San Town, what a domineering name!
Sun Tianen said: Because he is the third in the family, their father and mother named their three brothers in order, Tu Yi Guo, Tu 2 City, Tu 3 Town.
It turns out that this is the case, and it can only be said that his family's surname is domineering.
Tu Sanzhen likes to call himself Tu San or Sanye, but if others dare to call him Tu San, there will be no good fruit to eat. Among the three brothers, Tu Sanzhen has the highest talent and the greatest achievement, which is the late stage of the thirty-year-old moving spirit. He has to be a genius and definitely has the capital to be proud. No wonder everyone was convinced of him.
The faint divine sense at the banquet must have belonged to Tu Sanzhen, and he was very confident in his senses. Su You thought that Tu Sanzhen definitely knew himself, even if he was not hostile to him. Why did he want to peep with divine sense? Probe yourself, where did you get his attention?
Su You knew that it was rude to peep at others with his divine sense. Tu Sanzhen's behavior can be considered a provocation to Su You. That time in the Golden City competition, Sun Xiuxiu was displeased by Su You's bold and direct gaze, so he stabbed him with his divine sense, which was a punishment for him. It's just that Su You's cultivation was still shallow at that time, and he knew even less about divine consciousness, and he was still suspicious after being stabbed, so of course he didn't understand her intentions.
Although he didn't understand Tu Sanzhen's intentions, Su You still paid attention to him. And that cloud silkworm, Su You also felt his hostility. Both of them were a little inexplicable, and Su You could only remain vigilant against them for the time being.
The participants of the banquet returned to their families and immediately reported what they saw and heard at the banquet to the elders of the family, so that the elders could analyze and decide what strategy to adopt. Now is a critical moment in the battle for the crown prince, it is a matter of the rise and fall of the family, and we cannot take a wrong step.
The Prince's Mansion.
The seven of them had a secret conversation in the inner room. Yao Legend, Yao Weiqi, Yao Shuqi, and Yao Chuanzheng's little prince were in the column, and a middle-aged man with a handsome appearance and majesty sat in the middle.
This middle-aged man had a face to face with Yao Legend, and it was not difficult to guess that he was Yao Heshun, the lord of Platinum City. They also talk about what happened at the banquet.
Yao Legend said, "I feel that Tu Sanzhen knows that we were assassinated in Hanlin City. I mean, I may have known about the assassination before, but it didn't stop it, and I didn't have any of the Mirror Moon spies to warn me. That's why I deliberately stabbed the three towns at the banquet to let him know that I was dissatisfied with Kagami Yueji. ”
Yao Heshun was dressed in civilian clothes, which made him less majestic but more elegant. Said lightly: "The secret agents of the Mirror Moon Division are all over the country. The layout of the killer in Hanlin should not escape the eyes of the spies. Whether Kagatsuki was negligent or deliberately left it alone is unknown for the time being. However, after discussing with a few strategists, I found that there is still a suspicion about your assassination. On the surface, it was Su You who saw through the female dwarf killer in advance and destroyed the assassination, but in fact, the killer's strength was too weak. The killers have carefully laid out this game, if you really want the lives of a few of you, it is impossible to arrange only a few killers, and the strength is comparable to yours. This is killing, not a fight, why arrange a killer with the same strength as you to kill you? Don't tell me that the other party's strongest killer is the early stage of the gods. ”
Yao Legend was really stunned for a moment, and said: "What does Father mean: The other party's assassination of us is just a bluff?" ”
Yao Shuqi shouted: "How can it be a bluff." I feel that the female dwarf just wants my life, and if Su You hadn't intercepted her in time, I might have died. ”
Yao Heshun nodded and said, "The killer's target may be your brother and sister, or it may be just you." Kill you and let the legend escape. ”
Yao Chuanzheng's little prince said in his heart: "What does Uncle Wang mean is that the killer deliberately let go of the legend, so that the legend wants to launch a crazy revenge on the culprit behind him?" ”
Yao Weiqi was also shocked: "A plan to sow discord!" ”
Several people looked at each other, and their hearts were a little confused. Originally, the biggest object of suspicion was the second prince and the fourth prince, and in order to fight the third prince, they sent someone to assassinate the prince and county lord of the Platinum City Lord's Mansion, which seemed reasonable. But now that such an analysis is very likely to be someone else's plan to blame, that is, to provoke several princes and make them suspicious of each other.
But the suspicion of the second prince and the fourth prince cannot be ruled out from this. Maybe it's their bitter ploy.
Of course, the power of other countries is also questionable. Just imagine, Yun Ze and Tianchuan didn't want Xinhao's imperial power to transition smoothly, so they launched an assassination to provoke a fight between the princes and stir up the situation in Xinhao, which seems reasonable.
According to this analysis, not only Yunze and Tianchuan, but also the surrounding foreign clans are also suspicious. In order to provoke the disputes of the Three Kingdoms, the small foreign countries pretended to be Yunze or Tianchuan people, and launched an assassination on the Xinhao royal family.
There are so many people who are motivated! No wonder the killers dared to assassinate in the city, they didn't worry about being exposed.
This stroke of genius disrupted the situation in Xinhao, and also pulled Yunze, Tianchuan, and foreign tribes into the water. Let everyone be suspicious of each other, guard against each other, and put everyone at risk.
Yao Legend's eyes kept flickering, and he shook his head and sighed for a long time. There are too many suspicious people, and everyone looks like the culprit behind them. What a good means! He was depressed and uncomfortable.
........
Morning. Su You and Baishan to the ware workshop respectively and the formation of the mold workshop and weaving workshop team to negotiate work.
Su You is talking to the twenty mold masters and machine tool operators selected from the main building. Because he arrived late, the mold machine tool only selected the site, equipped with personnel, and waited for a hundred wastes.
Bai Shan and a group of weavers and embroiderers discussed the Hualou loom together. Fortunately, Ou Keren was by his side, otherwise he would be the only man in a group of warblers and swallows, and he felt too uncomfortable. In the month he has been in the main building, he has assembled four flower building machines, which are currently being tested. They were talking about some new notebooks, as well as the design of clothing and leather boots.
The day flies by. During dinner, Commander Sun Tianen suddenly came to the Instrument Workshop to find Su You Baishan, and he took the two people who were puzzled to the second floor of the canteen of the commercial building. In a side room, I saw Sun Chonglou, Sun Chongyuan, and Sun Tianci.
Sun Chonglou beckoned everyone to eat first. It didn't take long for the exquisite dishes to be served on the table, and seeing that the masters and young masters were all bowing their heads to eat without speaking, the two of them buried their heads in eating and concentrated on tasting the food.
Meal. Sun Chonglou opened the topic and said, "This month, the two of you can go to work in the instrument manufacturing workshop during the day, and go to the practice room to practice in the afternoon or evening. The few of us will take turns pointing you out every day until the day of the duel in the ring. ”
Su You and Bai Shan were stunned.
Sun Chongyuan explained: "We still know a lot about the situation in Baishan. His fire energy is close to the late stage of the Ming God, and it is similar to that of Na Luo Yeming, and they have fought each other, and they know each other's depths. We will train him for another month, and strive to break through to the late stage this month, and we will be able to greatly increase the chances of winning. ”
He looked at Su You and said, "It's you that we're worried about!" Let me ask you, do you already have the three systems of energy: metal, fire, and water? ”
Several people stared at Su You, waiting for him to answer.
Su You knew that sooner or later he would be exposed to everyone, and there was no need to hide it, so he nodded and replied, "Yes, how would the landlord know that I have also cultivated Water Yuanqi?" ”
This is tantamount to admitting. Several people glared at Su You for a long time, and Sun Chongyuan didn't know whether he knew whether he was reckless or impulsive! However, if anyone knew that they could cultivate three attribute vitality at the same time, it would be difficult to resist that temptation.
Sun Chonglou said: "It was Xiuxiu who sensed it." She also has some Water Spirit Roots, but the Water Spirit Roots are not particularly good. I can also feel that she is unwilling to give up the water vitality, and she will also secretly cultivate. Of course, she is still majoring in gold vitality, and water vitality is only cultivated as an auxiliary vitality. We no longer advise you to give up the other two energies and focus on the strongest one. After all, having a three-line spiritual root is a miracle in itself, and giving up any of them is a difficult decision. ”
Sun Tianci couldn't help but ask curiously, "Su You, how do you rank the grades of your three spirit roots?" ”
Su You didn't know how to distinguish between good and bad spirit roots, so he hesitated for a moment and said, "I feel that the three spirit roots are almost the same. ”
Everyone was stunned at the same time. What does it mean? Is it the Balanced Spiritual Root?
Sun Chonglou couldn't wait to ask, "Are you sure that the cultivation speed of the three attribute Yuan Qi is the same?" ”
Sun Chongyuan also hurriedly said: "That means that your three systems of gold, fire and water are all in the same realm, the late stage of the Ming God?" ”
Sun Tianci and Sun Tianen both looked at Su You with envy.
Su You nodded and shook his head. Seeing everyone's stunned expressions, he wondered if he should directly tell them about eating the Five Elements Fruit. In this way, he can explain why he suddenly has a multi-lineage spiritual root, and he will no longer have to find a reason for the second qi of civil engineering in the future.
Although Su You is very relieved about the Sun family, this secret is very important, and I don't know what the impact will be if you say it? I'll talk about it later.
Suddenly, he thought of telling Sun Xiuxiu first, and it was up to her to decide whether to say it or not. decided, he no longer dwelled on the matter, and replied easily: "I am the late stage of the Golden and Fire Yuan Qi Ming God, and the early stage of the Water Yuan Qi God!" ”
Several people's eyes widened at the same time, and they gasped, and no one said anything for a long time.
It's normal for them to be shocked. How old is Su Youcai, he said that he is only twenty-two years older. Don't say that the three lines of initiates are also amazing geniuses who specialize in cultivating one qi and reaching the gods at this age.
Sun Xiuxiu was able to break through the Divine Realm at the age of less than eighteen and become the first genius of the Sun clan, although he was a supreme genius with a top-level golden spirit root, and it was also the result of the cultivation of the whole clan regardless of the cost.
Su You is completely different, he can achieve this kind of achievement without any resources and without relying on anyone's help, which is even more remarkable. That's why a few people are so shocked.
Su You had a headache at their reaction. Is it overdoing it? In this way, how will they react if they show other vitality in the future? He decided to tell Sun Xiuxiu about the Five Elements Fruit immediately.
Sun Tianen felt unbelievable, stood up and said, "Go!" Let's go to the cultivation room now and test your vitality. ”
Everyone unanimously agreed and went to the practice room.
Under the heavily guarded council hall, after passing through several mechanisms, everyone came to a huge space dozens of meters down.
This level of space is divided into separate secret rooms. There is a sign hanging at the door of each secret room, which reads a gold system room ......, a water system room, and so on. There are sixty-two rooms in total, and it is found that there are forty rooms in the gold system, five rooms in the water system, eight rooms in the fire system, four rooms in the wood system, three rooms in the earth system, and one room each in the wind system and the thunder system.
There are so many cultivation secret rooms hidden in the basement of the council hall! Su You Baishan was shocked and curious, he didn't understand what was so special about these cultivation rooms, why were they built underground?
In the outermost room, which had no signs, there were two elderly men in their sixties and seventies. They are the ones responsible for guarding the Secret Room.
Sun Chonglou respectfully greeted the two: "Qiu Lao! Limber! Let's take two young people to test the realm. ”
The two old men just nodded, and from their attitude of not caring too much about Sun Chonglou and the others, Su You and Bai Shan couldn't help but be curious about the identities of the two.
Inside the room was a square stone platform on which a three-foot-tall black cylindrical object was placed. Su You discovers that the cylinder is actually made of crystal!
Sun Chonglou asked Su Bai and the others to stand on both sides of the crystal pillar.
The old man named "Qiu Lao" didn't look at the two of them, and quietly mixed a strange liquid in a bowl. After a while, Qiu Lao poured the mixed black liquid into the small hole at the bottom of the crystal pillar. Then I saw that the original black crystal pillar became even darker, black and translucent.
Qiu Lao glanced at Su You and Bai Shan and asked, "Which of you will test first?" Place both hands on the base of the pillar and enter the energy at the same time. ”
Bai Shan stepped forward, held the bottom of the crystal pillar with both hands, and began to release fire energy. Strange things happen. The bottom of the crystal pillar began to glow with a faint red light, only to realize that there was a thin tube in the middle of the crystal pillar. At this time, a section of red gradually lights up near the bottom of the tube, and the red line is still rising.
Qiu Lao was obviously stunned when he saw the red. He glanced at Bai Shan and shouted, "Keep the fire energy input at a constant speed, don't stop if I don't tell you to stop." ”
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the crystal pillar. The red line in the thin tube of the crystal pillar gradually climbs upward. See the scale displayed on the outside of the tube. Su You suddenly realized, isn't this the principle of the thermometer? It's just that it's not the temperature that is being tested, it's the amount of energy.
When the red line reaches nearly one-third of the height of the tube, it begins to fluctuate up and down. After a while, the red line stabilized a little below a third.
Qiu Lao asked Baishan to stop gas transmission. He began to count the scales on the tube, then opened a cabinet on the wall and pulled out a red crystal cube from it. Densely packed small grids are engraved on it, and numbers are written next to the grids. Su You understood, this was something similar to a scale comparison table.
After another while, Qiu Lao said: "I haven't tested the fire vitality for a long time, and I can't remember it clearly." Oh, according to this qi scale, this kid's fire vitality is the eighth stage of the middle stage of the Ming God, which is extremely close to the late stage of the Ming God. ”
Bai Shan secretly counted and found that there were only ten squares marked with the middle stage of the Ming God, that is, a total of ten paragraphs, and he was now the eighth paragraph, and there were still two paragraphs left to break through to the Ming Dynasty?
It was Su You's turn. On the other side, Limber took out the clear liquid he had already mixed and applied it to the bottom of the crystal pillar. Soon, the red line in the thin tube of the crystal pillar slowly descended, and finally disappeared into the base.
Su You had already understood the principle of this crystal pillar. He first sealed the other Yuan Qi Mansions, and then summoned the Fire Yuan Qi and sent it to the bottom of the crystal pillar.
The crystal base glows with the same red glow. Another Fire Vitality Cultivator, Qiu Lao and Lin Bo were stunned again, the fire system that they hadn't seen for a long time, they saw the two of them once today.
The red line rose straight up in the tube, quickly exceeding the height of the White Mountain, and after rising a little more, it stabilized at a little more than a third.
Qiu Lao and Lin Bo glanced at Su You in surprise, even if they didn't have the scale, they knew that this was at least the late stage of the Ming God. Qiu Lao still carefully checked the scale on the transparent crystal block, and said to Su You: "Fire attribute vitality, the sixth stage of the late Ming God." ”
Sure enough, it is the queen of the Ming Dynasty, or the high-level, that is, it is close to moving the gods. Several people breathed a sigh of relief, and Sun Chonglou asked Lin Bo to continue the next test.
Lin Bo and Qiu Lao were stunned again, and Lin Bo said excitedly: "Who else wants to test?" Did any of you boys break through? ”
Several people held back laughter and did not speak. Sun Chongyuan said: "Lin Bo will do it first!" ”
