Chapter Forty-Eight: Leaving the Wasteland
A few months passed in a blink of an eye, and the one-year trial time of An Ning and Lin Qiu was about to expire, and leaving the wasteland and returning to Shushan was also on the agenda.
After being instructed by Qin Zheng, An Ning has made great progress in cultivating in the past few months, and now he has broken through to the middle stage of distraction. Lin Qiu also digested all the recent gains, which can be seen from the middle stage of the empress's cultivation of advanced distraction, and it also shows that Lin Qiu's cultivation has now reached the distraction stage.
Moreover, Lin Qiu not only has greatly increased his cultivation, but he has also greatly improved his alchemy, which is not a small point, because Lin Qiu can now refine the sixth-grade spirit pill, and he has also been promoted to the fifth-grade spirit weapon master in terms of refining.
On the eve of Lin Qiu and An Ning's departure, the empress completed the unification of the wasteland by force, and eliminated all the enemies by strong means. Jiang Shang also controlled the commerce of the entire wasteland in the hands of the Jiang family. So far, the wasteland has completed another unification since the Great Qin of the wasteland.
On this day, the empress held a grand founding ceremony in Qincheng, which had been rebuilt by Lin Qiu's refining vessels. All the people from all directions are in awe, and the people of the mighty wasteland that the empress has created now are not feared.
Lin Qiu did not participate in this grand ceremony, and just when the empress was full of hope that Lin Qiu would come, Lin Qiu came to the cave under Luocheng alone again.
The reason why Lin Qiu chose to come here again was because he felt that there was something down there. Ever since he first entered there, the sword box had been restless, as if there was something inside that was attracting the sword box.
This time, Lin Qiu entered here and was not forbidden again, and entered here smoothly. There was no trace of the Demon Slayer here, replaced by an abyss glowing red.
When Lin Qiu came to the side of the abyss, the sword box became agitated again. Lin Qiu stroked the sword box and jumped in, and after a flash of red light in front of Lin Qiu's eyes, he had already landed. This place was full of metallic color except for the red light on the top of his head, Lin Qiu moved slightly, feeling something sharp across his skin, but he couldn't see what it was, and Lin Qiu would feel this way every time he moved.
Lin Qiu unfolded his divine sense to find out what it was, but not only did he not find it, but he was almost scratched by that thing. At this time, the sword box was extremely restless, and Lin Qiu's body trembled violently.
Lin Qiu had no choice but to put down the current matter and follow the instructions of the sword box to rush in one direction. Fortunately, Lin Qiu's body was strong enough, otherwise he would have died of scars by now. However, the clothes on Lin Qiu's body, which were comparable to the third-grade spirit armor, suffered, and it didn't take long for them to turn into strips of cloth and hang on Lin Qiu's body.
"This place is really horrible, it can kill people invisibly, it's a pity for my clothes, which I spent three days refining. Lin Qiu shook his head as he walked.
Suddenly, Lin Qiu stopped and opened his mouth wide in shock. I saw an endless ocean appear under my feet, and the ocean was filled with countless swords, and the dense swords filled the entire ocean. Above the sea of swords was an endless starry sky, and those stars emitted a cold light, like sharp swords.
After Lin Qiu was shocked, he jumped down and slowly walked towards the sea. Suddenly, Lin Qiu's eyes bloomed, and he saw countless sharp swords attacking him, Lin Qiu was startled, and when he was about to make a move, the terrifying scene disappeared.
At this time, a figure floated out of the sea, Lin Qiu saw that people were overjoyed, and asked, "Senior Qin, you are back!"
Qin Zheng said: "I'm just a divine consciousness clone, I've been staying here and waiting for you to come." ”
"What, Senior Qin knew that I was going to come here?" Lin Qiu asked.
"Of course, it's fair to say that everything here is for you. Qin Zheng pointed to the sea of swords and said: "This place is called the Sea of Hidden Swords, and the swords in it have been accumulated since ancient times, up to the Chaos Divine Sword, down to the first-grade Spirit Sword. He pointed to the starry sky and said, "That's a sword path star, and every shining star is a kind of sword path." ”
"Senior, I still don't understand?" Lin Qiu was extremely shocked at this time, but he couldn't understand why Qin Zheng had prepared all this for himself.
"It seems that you don't know much about the sword case on you. Qin Zheng said with a smile.
"Sword box?" Lin Qiu untied the sword box and put it in his hand.
"Your sword box needs to absorb swords to advance, and now your sword box belongs to the scope of the Nine Rank Spirit Weapon, which means that you can absorb all the spirit swords below the immortal weapon to make the sword box advance to an immortal weapon. Qin Zhengdao.
"How did the seniors know this?" Lin Qiu asked as he looked at Qin Zheng.
Qin Zheng smiled and said, "Maybe you won't believe it, but it's true." A man who claimed to have understood the laws of time and returned from the future arranged all of this, and asked me to leave it to you. ”
"The law of time, the future?" Lin felt like he was already dizzy.
"That's right, the law of time is called an incomprehensible law, and yet it was comprehended by that man. Qin Zheng said: "Originally, I didn't believe it, but as he said, you killed the demons on the demon slaying platform, and successfully fused the forbidden blood he left behind, and I believed it at that time." ”
"Then why did the senior only tell me now?" Lin Qiu asked.
"The less people know about it, the better. Qin Zheng patted Lin Qiu's shoulder and said, "Let go of your sword box and let him go." ”
"Hmm!" The moment Lin Qiu let go of the sword box, the sword box directly turned into a ray of light and rushed into the sea of hidden swords with the mad sword inside.
"It's also part of the wasteland, so wherever you are, you can come in whenever you want. Okay, there is sword intent everywhere here, which is good for you to comprehend your sword intent in the future, so take your time to comprehend it. After saying that, Qin Zheng's divine sense dissipated.
"Thank you, seniors. Regardless of whether Qin Zheng could hear it or not, Lin Qiu was very grateful to Qin Zheng from the bottom of his heart.
Lin Qiupan sat next to the Sea of Hidden Sword, feeling the sword intent coming out of the Sea of Hidden Sword slashing across his body. Although I didn't comprehend anything, I felt that those sword intents were much more kind.
At this time, countless sword intents continued to surging towards Lin Qiu, and countless wrapped Lin Qiu in the middle. Lin Qiu's nose and eyes were raised, and he slowly released his divine sense to communicate with these sword intents. Slowly, Lin Qiu's divine sense saw countless swords flying beside him. Lin Qiu's divine consciousness was integrated into these sword intents, and the sword intent continued to swim in the sea of hidden swords with Lin Qiu's divine sense, as if entertaining an old friend who had not seen him for a long time.
The sword box immediately plunged into the sea of hidden swords after Lin Qiuhou, and after the sound of "click!", the mad sword flew out and stood on top of the sword box. Suddenly, a suction force appeared in the sword box, and this suction did not suck the water in, but all the spirit swords below the immortal weapons next to it were sucked in.
The space inside the sword box was very terrifying, and it didn't take long for thousands of spirit swords to be sucked in, and there was no intention of stopping, and they were still absorbing this spirit sword.
............
At this time, the founding ceremony also ended, to everyone's surprise, the empress did not change the good back to Qin, but took Huaxia as the country name, since then the Chinese Empire was officially established, and the empress is the founding emperor of the Chinese Empire.
After the ceremony, the empress returned to the palace in a rage, leaving behind a group of unsuspecting subordinates.
King An looked at Qin Xi, but Qin Xi spread his hands and said that he didn't know what was going on.
At this time, Jing Jing said to An Ning beside him: "Ning'er, the ancestor loves you the most, go and see what's wrong with the ancestor?"
"Okay mother. An Ning agreed, and hurriedly ran into the empress's bedroom.
As soon as the empress returned to the palace, she dismissed all the maidservants, took out a jug of wine, and poured it into her mouth. Today she was full of joy and expected Lin Qiu to come and see the success she had achieved in doing everything for him, but Lin Qiu did not come, but just asked An Ning to bring a word of apology.
The empress was very angry at first, and she wanted to arrest Lin Qiu, but then she felt very aggrieved, but she couldn't show it, and now she can only drink alone.
"Ancestor, can I come in?" asked An Ning as she pushed open a crack in the door and got into a small head.
After Qin Yue saw An Ning, she said, "Ning'er, let me be alone and quiet, you go and rest first." ”
"Okay~" An Ning had no choice but to retreat.
After An Ning left, Qin Yue poured herself again, wanting to forget all her grief.
"Why are you drinking here alone? Today is the day of your founding of the country. Lin Qiu suddenly appeared behind Qin Yue, put his hands on Qin Yue's shoulders and gently kneaded them. Lin Qiu didn't gain much after comprehending the Sea of Hidden Swords, so he left the sword box alone and came back first, seeing Qin Yue like this in his divine sense, he inevitably felt a little guilty in his heart, so he came to Qin Yue first.
"Get out of here!" I want to be alone and be quiet!" Qin Yue scolded angrily.
"Who provoked our Majesty the Empress?" Lin Qiu asked.
"A bastard who didn't come to see my founding ceremony!" Qin Yue said through gritted teeth.
"I don't have important things to do. Lin Qiu sat beside Qin Yue and said.
"Are you leaving tomorrow?" Qin Yue asked.
"Hmm. It's been a year since I came out, and I'm going back. Lin Qiu nodded and said, "But don't worry, I can come back as long as my mind moves." ”
Qin Yue suddenly stood up and said to Lin Qiu, "Come with me." ”
Although Lin Qiu didn't know what Qin Yue wanted to do, he still followed Qin Yue all the way into the bedroom. Then the sound of spring came from the bedroom.
............
The next day, as soon as the sky was polished, Lin Qiu and An Ning left without saying goodbye to anyone. In the entire wasteland, only the empress stood on top of the palace and watched the two leave.
