Chapter Eighty-One: Gathering Souls and Absorbing Stars

Dark Country, Dark City, Royal Palace.

Ning Xiaoxue, dressed in a white dress, sat alone in the imperial study in the palace, surrounded by large and small bookshelves, full of dossiers and classics.

But Ning Xiaoxue didn't have the heart to read these classics at the moment.

She sat behind the delicately carved table, leaned against the table, and then supported her chin with her right hand, and her smart eyes looked at the bookshelf on the left without blinking.

It looks like he's in a daze.

"I don't know what happened to him, have you found your uncle and aunt, alas......"

From the day Ning Xiaoxue and Bai Qi separated, nearly a month has passed now.

In this month, Ning Xiaoxue has perfectly incarnated as Zhu Jun's guard.

On the grounds of protecting the emperor Zhu Jun, he followed the emperor and never left an inch at the critical moment.

And Zhu Jun, I don't know what method Wuhir used to threaten him, now he has completely put aside the emperor's face, and when facing Ning Xiaoxue alone, he grovels and is extremely obedient.

In the early dynasty, Ning Xiaoxue still gave Zhu Jun a lot of face, standing quietly by the side and waiting, generally silent.

When Zhu Jun reviewed the folds, Ning Xiaoxue's approval was required for all matters.

When she has nothing to do, Ning Xiaoxue likes to sit alone in the imperial study.

However, she was in the imperial study, almost not reading, just quietly in a daze.

At this time, outside the imperial study, there was a sound of footsteps, which woke up Ning Xiaoxue.

She hurriedly tidied up her clothes, adjusted her sitting posture, and picked up the book on the table.

It gives the impression that she has been sitting there dignified and reading.

Footsteps stopped outside the study.

Then, Zhu Jun, who was wearing a dragon robe, walked in alone.

"Hall Master Ning!"

Zhu Jun walked three meters away from the desk, stopped, and then saluted Ning Xiaoxue respectfully.

"What's the matter?" Ning Xiaoxue put down the book, raised her head to look at Zhu Jun, and said indifferently.

"The army has all gathered in the city of Dark, just waiting for your order. Zhu Jun said respectfully.

When Ning Xiaoxue heard this, a killing intent flashed in her eyes, and she said in a deep voice: "Pass the order and attack Apocalypse City!"

"Obey!" After getting the answer, Zhu Jun saluted Ning Xiaoxue and said, "Hall Master Ning, if there is nothing else, then I will retire first......

Just like Bai Yu said before, after Wuhir took control of the Dark Kingdom, he showed his sharp fangs to the Yaoguang Kingdom, preparing to destroy the Yaoguang Kingdom, and then use the Yaoguang Kingdom as a springboard to attack other countries.

Uhir's purpose is very simple, she wants the Dark Kingdom to become the overlord of Tianhe State again!

After Zhu Jun left the imperial study, Ning Xiaoxue put the classics back in their original places, then left the palace and returned to the dark hall.

Ning Xiaoxue, who returned to the dark temple, found Uhir and told the other party that he was going to the front line to supervise the battle.

"Overseer?"

Ushir, dressed in a black dress, sat in the garden, looking at the colorful fish in the pool, and from time to time she threw the fish food in her hand into the fish.

Behind her, Ning Xiaoxue stood motionless.

Hearing Ning Xiaoxue say that she wanted to go to the front line, Wushier said without looking back: "I'm afraid it's not the battle overseer, but you think about that kid, right?"

"Yes. A trace of shyness flashed on Ning Xiaoxue's face, but she didn't deny it, and she admitted it generously.

"How do you know he's still in Apocalypse City, and if he's not, aren't you running for nothing?" Uhir threw all the remaining fish food into the pool, causing the fish to scramble for it.

"It doesn't matter if he's not there, I'm only going here to help our army take Apocalypse City! Ning Xiaoxue replied without hesitation.

"Pay attention to proportion, if you want to make a move, try to be as secretive as possible, after all, there is the agreement signed between the sect and the state, and you can't go too far. Uhir stood up and stretched comfortably.

"I understand. Ning Xiaoxue said.

"You were reluctant when I first connected you, why are you willing now?" Uhir glanced back at Ning Xiaoxue and revealed a faint smile.

"I didn't know him at the time, but on the way to escort him, it felt quite right. As she spoke, a smile also appeared on Ning Xiaoxue's face.

"Go!" Seeing Ning Xiaoxue's expression, the hall master of the Dark Hall shook his head helplessly.

Huaichun girl, I can't stop it.

"Thank you hall master for your success!" Ning Xiaoxue said excitedly.

......

Yaoguang Kingdom Apocalypse City, such as a restaurant.

At this time, Bai Qi and the three of them had already finished dinner, and Shangguan Lanyue and Bai Yu returned to their respective rooms.

Bai Qi, who had nothing to do, took out the blank rune paper from the storage ring, put it on the table in the room, and then took out a pen and cinnabar.

When everything was ready, he sat down and began to draw the talisman intently.

Ever since he heard Bai Yu say that someone was secretly peeping at the Home Inn, he always felt that something was wrong at the end of the day, so he raced against time to cultivate and improve his strength.

For the next three days, Bai Qi had been concentrating on cultivation and did not run around.

On the third night, Bai Qi sat cross-legged on the bed, his closed eyes suddenly opened.

An invisible aura swept out of his body, sweeping out of all directions.

But after this breath left Bai Qi two meters, it was blocked by a light curtain, and it was impossible to move forward in the slightest.

With Bai Qi's body as the center, this light curtain is like an upside-down bowl, covering things within a radius of two meters.

"I feel a little stronger!" Bai Qi raised his right hand, looked at it over and over, and then clenched his fist.

In fact, Bai Qi's breakthrough this time is a natural result.

When he was sealed and cultivated by Long Hanyan, his strength had reached the point where he was about to break through.

Coupled with the continuous battles during this time, his breakthrough was extremely simple.

After his strength reached a higher level, Bai Qi chose to stop cultivating, even if he continued to cultivate, it would be impossible to continue to break through in a short period of time.

Therefore, he chose to stabilize his current state.

When the realm was almost stable, a spiritual light flashed in Bai Qi's mind.

"Now that we have broken through this time, presumably some of those charms that can't be used can be used more or less. ”

Bai Qi said to himself, took out those unusable talismans from the storage ring, and placed them on the table one by one, a total of ten.

He began to sense it from left to right, but the first five were unusable.

Until he sensed the sixth one, his expression changed and his face was happy, this one was available to him.

He glanced at the pattern of the talisman and quickly remembered the name of the talisman.

Soul Gathering Star Charm!

Unlike other sigils, this one does not burn when used.

Instead, it flies to the location specified by the user, suspended in the air, or attached to the ground, or attached to the person.

Then, with the talisman as the center, a terrifying attraction is generated, and finally the caster detonates the Soul Gathering Star Talisman by himself.

However, the adsorption range of the Soul Gathering Star Charm is determined by the strength of the caster.

Bai Qi didn't rush to talk about the Soul Gathering Star Talisman, but put it aside and continued to sense the remaining four, but the result made him a little disappointed.

This breakthrough can only be used by the Soul Gathering Star Absorbing Talisman.

He wasn't too frustrated, and after putting the remaining nine runes that couldn't be used back into the storage ring, he continued to take out the rune paper and began to draw the Soul Gathering Star Charm Talisman.

After drawing the three Soul Gathering Star Talismans, the source qi in his body had been exhausted.

He shook his head helplessly, so he had to meditate to recover the source qi.

After the source qi was almost recovered, he forcibly drew two more white tiger talismans.

Although with his current strength, he can't exert much strength in the White Tiger Rune, but it is still one of the eight great runes.

Compared with the power of other talismans, the power of the white tiger talisman is naturally needless to say, and it is not an exaggeration to use it as a hole card.

In this way, the time came to the fourth day, and Bai Qi made an appointment with Cangping to learn.

Early in the morning, Bai Qi was already dressed and washed.

He was wearing black cotton clothes and pants inside, and a white robe given to him by Bai Yu outside, after all, it was winter, so he naturally had to wear more clothes.

His source qi is not as strong as Bai Yu's, even if he wears less, he can rely on his source qi to fight the cold.

Bai Qi walked out of the room and took a breath of fresh air.

Although the fresh air is refreshing, Bai Qi's face at this time is extremely solemn.

Last night, before going to bed, Bai Qi stood upstairs and looked downstairs, and by chance, he saw five people walking out of the Home Inn Restaurant.

If it was someone else, Bai Qi really wouldn't have taken this matter to heart, but these five people were wearing red cloaks.

The red cloak, the white is already clear and cannot be clear, this is the sign of the red door!

Moreover, what Bai Qi cares about the most is that the aura that these five people inadvertently exuded, to Bai Qi, is extremely powerful!

Why are the people of the Red Gate here? for what? or something else?

Bai Qi shook his head and put aside the complicated thoughts in his head.

Last night, Bai Yu originally proposed that she accompany Bai Qi to the Water Cloud Sect, but Bai Qi refused.

The reason for refusal is very simple, after all, it is to go to the Water Cloud Sect, and it is not a dangerous place, it is no problem for him to go alone.

Besides, he and Cangping are just fighting, not a life-and-death duel.

Perhaps because he felt that what Bai Qi said was reasonable, Bai Yu agreed that he would go to the Water Cloud Sect alone.

Bai Qi stood outside Bai Yu's room, raised his hand and wanted to knock on the door, but he was afraid of disturbing Bai Yu's rest, so he put it down again.

After repeating this three times, Bai Yu opened the door by himself and walked out of the room.

"Is there something wrong?" Bai Yu looked at Bai Qi's solemn expression and said lightly.

"That...... It's nothing...... I just want to see if you're up. Bai Qi scratched his head and said hesitantly.

Bai Yu nodded and said, "Be careful on the road, go early and return early!"

"Hmm. Bai Qi's solemn expression became relaxed, he glanced in the direction of the Water Cloud Sect, and said, "Senior Bai, then I'll go?"

"Go ahead!" Bai Yu showed a faint smile, as if encouraging Bai Qi.
