Fifth day after qualifying.

Today, the third phase of the league is completely over, and the last four top 32 are all decided, no accidents, the three realms of the competition, these four places, are basically won by the participants of the Ice Palace and the five empires.

As a result, among the top thirty-two, there were only seven people in the Great Xuanzhi Realm Division, nine in the Ice and Snow Palace, sixteen in the Five Great Empires, and sixty-six second-rate empires. As for the Soul Lock Realm and the Star Mystery Realm, the former resulted in ten, sixteen, and six, while the latter had a ratio of ninth, eighteenth, fifth, and second-rate empires, which was even lower.

Day 6.

At some point, the suburbs not far from the Holy City of the Ice Palace poured into a lot of well-informed vendors, who set up stalls there, put all kinds of items on display, and sold them.

For them, the Ice Palace also acquiesced, and even sent people to maintain order.

The emergence of such a Taobao market immediately attracted many people, among them, there were many people who came here to participate in the Northern Continent League, not only the contestants, but also many elders and elders who went together.

And Le Qi and the others were also curious, and they also went there with great interest to see if they could find any good things.

He remembered that the last time Linlang Sect had bought some blue salt vines from a little girl named Yinlan. Hey, that's also a sensible hard-working child, I don't know how it's now.

shook his head, no longer thinking about these things, and secretly said in his heart: I am not a good person, how can I be sad for these things that do not concern me.

Not long after, the four of them came to the suburbs where the Taobao market is located. Looking at the dazzling array of goods, Le Qi's eyes lit up. Elixirs, weapons, elixirs, ores, materials, and even the secret techniques of the exercises. It's all incredibly varied. Moreover, just like this, I found that they are basically genuine, and this grade is much higher than the one in Linlang Sect at the beginning!

However, Le Qi soon became deflated, this time the grade is high, but the price is also high! There are indeed no fakes, but the vendors are also very sophisticated, and the price is not low at all, and there is no profit at all. In addition, although Le Qi knows how to collect medicine and roughly knows the price, in fact, he can't accurately judge, and if he buys anything casually, he may suffer a loss. Therefore, he did not buy it.

As for the rest, what pills, ores and the like, he didn't know anything, and he couldn't even tell if it was real, let alone buy it!

There are also some things that are out of the door, saying what is the treasure obtained from which ruins, and asking the vendors what is the use, basically they can't say a few useful words for a long time. Most of these items are random scrap scraps, broken stones, and iron, or they may really be real things dug up from the ruins, and the traders can't find their purpose. And even if you really get it from the ruins, it's not necessarily a treasure, most likely, it's still some broken rocks, but it's just a little older......

In the end, Le Qi's illusion of picking up leaks was shattered, and he returned completely empty-handed.

Of course, Le Qi and the others sighed and left, it didn't mean that all of them were like this, for example, the forces of many second-rate empires, including the Linlang Sect of the Black Forest Empire, their elders and sect elders were excited.

Some of them took a fancy to those exercises and mystical techniques, and paid for them to buy them and prepare to bring them back to the sect, preparing to expand the library pavilion, anyway, in the end, the sect would not let them suffer, but would give a certain reward. Others, they took a fancy to some elixirs that would help their cultivation, or some special elixirs, and they also bought them happily.

Day 7.

The Ice Palace sent people to distribute rewards to each of the top 32 contestants, a piece of jade with a length and width of three fingers, the jade is pure white, the texture is warm, and there is no cold touch of the stone, and the piece of Le Qi is carved with a hovering white dragon, with teeth and claws, so lifelike. At the same time, for every two victories, an additional Thousand Soul Source will be rewarded, so he who won four games in a row will get two.

Originally, the final reward for the third stage was just such a broken stone

Head, Le Qi was still a little dissatisfied, but Jingyan had no intention of explaining, and he felt that it was a rare treasure.

It is said that this piece of white jade, called soul nourishing jade, jade as its name suggests, its only role is also the most rare role, that is, it can nourish a person's soul, and the warrior wears it closely, through it, it can absorb soul matter from the outside world all the time, so as to strengthen its own soul power. Although, the rate of absorption is extremely slow, but it can't stand the effect for a long time, and there is no need to divide the psychological experience, judging from the quality of this piece of soul nourishing jade, it belongs to the middle and upper products, at most half a year, it can bring the effect of nearly a thousand soul sources to the martial artist!

Half a year is equivalent to the effect of a thousand soul source, that year is two, the price of a thousand soul source, but it is worth at least four thousand five hundred amethyst, that is to say, this inconspicuous gadget can bring nine thousand amethyst in a year! Converted into gold coins, that is nine million!

Le Qi suddenly felt a feeling of excitement. However, when he looked at Yan Yiyi beside him, his face was flat, and he couldn't see a happy feeling.

In this regard, he was puzzled and asked him why.

Yan Yiyi smiled and said, "Although this soul-nourishing jade is good, it also has some shortcomings. First of all, I said that the effect it produces in half a year can be equivalent to a Thousand Soul Source, in other words, this effect of it can be replaced by a Thousand Soul Source, that is, if you have enough money, you can achieve this effect;

Second, the absorption rate of soul nourishing jade to soul matter is indeed not fast, just take this mid-to-upper-quality soul nourishing jade as an example, it can only reach the effect of a thousand soul source in half a year, could it be that you really need half a year to break through a stage? That is obviously too slow. Especially when it comes to the Star, Moon and Yang Xuan Realm, a Thousand Soul Source may no longer be able to meet the requirements for breakthrough;

Third, breaking through the realm does not only require the strength of the soul power to reach a certain level, in fact, in the process of breaking through, it will consume a large amount of soul matter, which determines that when breaking through, even if there is an accumulation of soul nourishing jade, you had better take a soul pill like Thousand Soul Source. Of course, if you can accept the feeling of regression of soul power, you can also do without it. ”

Hearing this, Le Qi felt that there was some truth, and when he heard this, isn't this soul-nourishing jade a little chicken-ribbed? Le Qi asked a little unwillingly: "Then this soul-nourishing jade, are you going to wear it?"

"Hmm. Yan Wuyi nodded.

Hearing this, Le Qi shook his head with a sigh and felt sorry.

But after a pause, Yan said lightly: "Because I have a better piece." Immediately, in the surprised gaze of Le Qi, he took out a piece of solid jade pendant about the same size, green and black, which was round and engraved with some special symbols.

Le Qi was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "Since the soul nourishing jade has so many shortcomings, like chicken ribs, why do you still wear it?"

Yan Yi smiled and quipped, "When did I say it was chicken ribs?"

"Didn't you say that it has so many shortcomings? the absorption rate is slow, and it can't replace the Thousand Soul Source, isn't it a chicken rib?"

"That's right, these shortcomings are as you said, it can't replace a soul elixir like the Thousand Soul Source. However, its biggest role is not to replace the Thousand Soul Source!"

Saying this, Yan unintentionally shook off the folding fan in his hand, fanned it gently, and said with great interest: "The greatest effect of the soul nourishing jade is to endlessly exercise the quality of the soul over the years of adulthood, not the quantity! ”

Hearing this, Le Qi nodded, but thought about it again, no, this Nima just deliberately misled me! So he said slightly angrily: "Your uncle's! Why didn't you say it earlier! I thought the reward this time was a useless piece of chicken ribs!"

"It's pretty! You see, it's not useless to me!" Yan unintentionally argued.

"That's because you've got better!

"It's about the same for you, this piece will be used for use first, and when you find a piece of better quality, you will definitely have to change it!"

"Is that kind of thing so easy to find! Besides, it's not cheap when you look at it!"

"At least it's cost-effective!"

"I'm afraid I can't afford it......"

Along with the Stage 3 rewards, there is also an introduction to the Stage 4.

This introduction has four or five pages of text, which is very detailed, and Le Qi roughly read it and understood the general meaning.

As said at the beginning, the fourth stage is the non-elimination stage, in other words, all the top 32 have entered the fifth stage, which is the final stage.

And the fourth stage is actually a chance to enter the ruins.

What are relics? Ruins are the places of abandonment, which can be roughly divided into two types, the first type: the ruins of an ancient force, and the second type: the tomb of a certain powerful man.

The relics of this first ancient power are often forces that no longer exist. Why?

The reason is roughly as follows, if the forces that still exist choose to relocate for some reason, then 100% will take their belongings away, in that case, it is impossible to find useful things in the ruins, and if they have no value, they will not be ruins.

Therefore, only some forces that have suffered a sudden catastrophe of annihilation, and have no chance to transfer the property within the forces, will become relics. Of course, this type, even if the enemy family doesn't look down on its assets, most of them will be swept away by people nearby, and there is still nothing left.

Generally speaking, only some of the larger forces, especially the super forces with the Sage, their sect and clan, are very likely to be established in the space created by the Sage, although the entrance may be established in a prosperous place, but its real location, it is difficult for outsiders to figure out, the entrance is likely to be just a teleportation array, through teleportation, to reach the real location.

(Of course, the space created by the so-called Sage here must actually correspond to a certain real area of the world, not that the Sage can create a space out of thin air, and there is no possibility that a space can be carved out between a tiny area.) Because space is absolute, even if it is a relative space made up of all matter.

This is a simple logical relationship, which can be analyzed and understood in this way, firstly, the composition of matter as matter, by and large, does not change, no matter where it is and in which space.

For example, no matter where a person is, as long as he is still a human being, he maintains the characteristics of a human being, no matter what area and space he is in, then this person must always have hands, feet, and a body, and the muscles and blood that make up the body will not change, right? And muscles are made up of smaller parts, and those particles will not change in general, right? Otherwise, this person is still the same person?

And if the composition of the object does not change greatly, then the inevitable result is that the matter in different spaces must have the properties of the matter in the original space, and as mentioned earlier, the world can be explained completely and perfectly only by the interaction and movement between matter in three dimensions. Then, the same kind of particle, is bound to have various effects, the simplest, can only accommodate the position of one particle, it is difficult to accommodate two particles, especially the same particle.

This brings us to the only conclusion: there can never be two overlapping particles in the same location, and there can never be two overlapping spaces in the same place. If there is such a large matter, it will definitely occupy that large space, unless the particles in the space can be forcibly compressed to expand the relative space composed of particles, but even in this case, the absolute space will not change.

Under normal circumstances, no one will use space to compress the location of power, because time will slow down. Therefore, if you want to make a house, you have to have a space the size of a house, which cannot overlap or compress, and if you want to build a city, you must have the space of a city. ）
