Chapter 05: Antiquity

"This is the Ember Grass?"

Qin Chuan looked at the thing on the shelf and asked.

I saw a pile of things piled up on the dustless bookshelf, and at the bottom, there was a transparent jade box, which was quite large, but inside, there was only a strange flower and plant.

It is shaped like an ordinary weed, and it is extremely inconspicuous, except for a spike at the top. The whole body is blue-green color, and it is sealed in this jade box, but it continues to grow strangely, and it is extremely fresh, as if it has just been picked. Qin Chuan has also been to this study several times, but he never thought that this thing was the Soul Ember Grass.

"The jade box is sealed, and the turbidity is not allowed to enter, and it is infused with the aura of heaven and earth to maintain vitality. It seems that the predecessors of the dustless son also know the method of preserving the soul ember grass. ”

Ye Qiuqi said, his face was also a little happy.

"Take it. ”

Qin Chuan sighed and looked at Ye Qiuqi.

"Take it like this, won't the dustless seniors blame you?"

"Master is not a person who doesn't know right from wrong, and you and I don't distinguish between each other, what's the blame for taking one of his medicinal herbs? ”

Hearing this, Ye Qiuqi nodded, but was speechless.

He has been friends with Qin Chuan for all these years, not to mention some polite words. However, he didn't immediately take away the soul ember grass, but smiled and sat down with the altar of Purple Mansion Immortal Brew in his arms. Seeing this, Qin Chuan pursed his lips and sat down as well.

It seems that Ye Qiuqi is really not in a hurry to use this soul ember grass.

"I thought it would take at least a year and a half to find this medicinal herb, hey, I didn't expect you to do it right away. In this way, it saves me a lot of trouble. ”

Ye Qiuqi said with a smile, opened the wine jar again, and sniffed it extremely intoxicated.

"What do you want this thing for?"

Qin Chuan took down the two wine glasses and handed them to Ye Qiuqi, but asked, "Eh, what kind of magic weapon is that Xuantian Jade Jane, take it out and take a look?"

"Look?"

Suddenly, I only heard Ye Qiuqi laugh, "The Xuantian Jade Jane is the power of the bloodline of the Xuanyuan clan, and outsiders don't know it, so it was falsely rumored to be a magic weapon called 'Xuantian Jade Jane'." If you want to see this, why don't you let me get some blood for you?"

"Hmph. ”

Hearing this, Qin Chuan chuckled.

I see.

No wonder, at the beginning, the Dark Gate had the strength to forcibly kill Ye Qiuqi who was under the protection of Fuxi Gate, but it didn't turn out like that, but relied on Ye Qiusheng of the Ye family to attract Ye Qiuqi, so as to capture Ye Qiuqi and ask about the whereabouts of Xuantian Yujian. Because they also thought that the Xuantian Jade Slip was a magic weapon.

However, who could have known that Ye Qiuqi himself was the Xuantian Jade Jane who was rumored to make the Dark Gate tremble for a while and disappear. Even Qin Chuan himself only knew about it at this moment.

"This is also my Xuanyuan clan's helpless move. ”

Ye Qiuqi poured a cup of immortal brew and took a sip, but he sighed, "At the beginning, my mother was the only heir in the clan, so she survived, and under the protection of Mr. Gongsun, she stooped down and married into the Ye family. If they knew that Xuantian Jade was the power of the bloodline, I am afraid that their mother would have been mutilated a long time ago. ”

Qin Chuan was silent.

Of course, I know who "they" are.

"Good wine!"

Putting down the wine glass, Ye Qiuqi suddenly praised it, and the gloom on his face was swept away, "Because of the marriage of foreign clans, if I want to completely stimulate the power of pure blood, I have to rely on some foreign objects." ”

"That's it?"

Qin Chuan glanced at the soul ember grass and asked.

Ye Qiuqi nodded.

"There are many more, but with this ember grass, it's all right. However, my cultivation is still lacking, and I have to wait until the Nine Turns of the Qiankun Realm has cultivated the Yuan Shen before I can carry out the ritual of activating the bloodline. ”

"No wonder you're not in a hurry. ”

Qin Chuan said, raised his glass, and took a sip with Ye Qiuqi.

Ye Qiuqi's fate made outsiders envious, but it also discouraged outsiders. Hiding such a secret, he was persecuted in his early years, and his concubines fought with each other. At this moment, the countless pairs of eyes of the Dark Gate must also be searching for his traces at all times, and danger lurks.

However, Qin Chuan felt a sigh in his heart.

The only thing he firmly believes in is that Ye Qiuqi has not been simple from the beginning.

Later, too.

"Xiaoyan said that you and Master went to the Ancient Land, where is this so-called Ancient Land?"

After three rounds of drinking, Qin Chuan and Ye Qiuqi not only did not feel drunk, but became more and more energetic the more they chatted. The experiences of the two are extraordinary, and they rarely have confidants on weekdays, and they have endless words to say when they meet again.

Hearing Qin Chuan's question, Ye Qiuqi only said two words:

"Zhuolu. ”

Hearing this, Qin Chuan's eyebrows froze, but he only continued to take a sip of immortal brew.

Zhuolu is the place where a shocking battle took place in ancient times. Legend has it that the two emperors of Yan and Huang defeated the demon god Chiyou here, and returned the Central Plains to the peaceful world. Ye Qiuqi's Xuanyuan clan is the descendants of the Yellow Emperor, and Chi You died, and the Sanmiao tribe retreated into the western Xinjiang, so that there is today's Holy Witch Sect.

It is also extremely apt to say that it is the "land of the ancients".

"I searched with Master for several months, and finally found that place, and found a reclusive old man who called himself Xuanyuan Clan Guard. The secret of Xuantian Jade Jane is what he told me. ”

Ye Qiuqi continued, "But unfortunately, an accident happened later and he lost his life. ”

"Accident?"

"Yes, unexpectedly. ”

Seeing Qin Chuan's incomprehensible expression, Ye Qiuqi's expression sank, revealing a rare solemn color on weekdays. "The Sikong Silence of the Underworld Sect is like this, killing people and grabbing treasures. Master and I found out about a big conspiracy. ”

"What conspiracy?"

At this time, Qin Chuan also frowned.

In this way, he seems to have sensed that the Cult is planning a terrible plan. I once made myself feel a little delusional, this plan is even more terrifying than the righteous path of the world where the dark gate is destroyed.

Much scarier!

"They're collecting the Eight Ancient Holy Relics!"

For a long time, Ye Qiuqi said heavily. Glancing at Qin Chuan, he seemed to think that Qin Chuan didn't know what the eight holy relics were, so he was silent for a long time, and then continued to explain:

"That's what the old man told me. In the ancient world, there were eight sacred relics, which were called Emperor Hatred, Nothingness, Grief and Anger, Star Tribulation, Obsession Obsession, Innocence, Guilt and Madness, and Heaven and Earth. No one knows where it came from, no one knows what it was used for, and no one knows the exact whereabouts of each of them today. ”

As he spoke, Ye Qiuqi's expression ached, "What Sikong Lonely took away from the old man was the obsession obstacle of one of the eight holy relics. In the hand of the woman who was traveling with her, there was also a guqin without delusion. ”

“......”

Qin Chuan was silent for a while, his face gloomy.

Emperor hatred, nothingness, grief and anger, star calamity, obsession obstacles, innocence, guilt and madness, breaking the sky and the earth.

This was the first time I had learned the name of each of the eight sacred relics. Wuchenzi said that the emperor's hatred was in the hands of the Demon Yan of the Underworld Sect, and there was no delusion and obsession obstacles, and they were obtained by the two protectors of the sun and the moon respectively. Coupled with his own star tribulation and the guilt and madness of the Ghost Valley, there are still three things that have not been born.

Nothingness, wrath, and shattering.

Judging from the countless actions of the Underworld Sect against Liu Shenyan of the Jade Sword Sect, one of them must be in Liu Shenyan's hands. What is the purpose of the Cult's painstaking collection?

Thinking about it, Qin Chuan felt more and more uneasy.

Others will do it, but they must not let Liu Shenyan fall into the hands of Jun Moyan. Even if you don't spare your life, you must protect her. This is my life's commitment.

"By the way, don't publicize this matter, only a few people in the division know about it. ”

"I understand. ”

Hearing Ye Qiuqi's advice, Qin Chuan responded.

The weight of this matter is naturally known to me. In this way, the mysterious original person who entered the Western Frontier to attack Xianyun Ridge must be a person from the Underworld, and perhaps, it is the Lord of the Underworld.

That means that he is also in the goal of the Underworld?

It seems that it is necessary to give Ah Luoye some advice, and if he knows in advance, he can also take some precautions as soon as possible. After all, it is possible for the enemy not to know who the stars are on and who to attack.

"You leave some for me!"

Suddenly, Qin Chuan snorted and handed the wine glass to Ye Qiuqi.

His face was silent, but his heart was already full of worries. It wasn't until he drank the last glass of wine that Qin Chuan stood up and thought about his future plans. promised Aroye, at this moment, it's time to go back.

"Take the Soul Ember Grass and go back to the Green Immortal Mountain. ”

"Tsk......"

Ye Qiuqi drank the last cup of Zifu Immortal Brew without leaving a drop, and then smacked his lips quite intentionally, and sighed, "It's over, this kind of jade dew elixir will be lost in the future." ”

“......”

Qin Chuan glanced at him with a look of shame.

Speaking of which, if Master Wuchenzi asks about the whereabouts of Zifu Immortal Brew in the future, he still doesn't know how to answer. Otherwise, it will be pushed directly on Ye Qiuqi's body, anyway, no one knows if he drank it or not......

While Qin Chuan was thinking, Ye Qiuqi had already walked in front of the bookshelf, carefully moving the transparent jade box containing the soul ember grass. I don't know if it's because I'm drunk or because I'm lazy, and I didn't withdraw many things from the top first, but I just wanted to pull it out directly from below.

"Be careful!"

Seeing this, Qin Chuan snorted.

As soon as the words fell, there was a sound, and Ye Qiuqi was caught off guard and took a few steps back, but he could stabilize his body. Holding the jade box in his arms, he was really pulled out directly.

Immediately, he glanced at Qin Chuan quite proudly.

I saw Ye Qiuqi's expression condensed, and a strange light flashed between his hands, enveloping the entire jade box. At this time, Qin Chuan also watched with great interest, and he actually saw that the jade box disappeared out of thin air after the light dimmed, which was clear, and it was also a secret method that implied the wonder of space.

This guy has also learned such magical powers.

Just thinking about it, all of a sudden, both of them had a change in complexion.

"Boom ......"

The things that were placed on the bookshelf just now, because Ye Qiuqi suddenly took something from below, all collapsed in an instant, and they were scattered all over the ground. Thankfully, it's just some books.

“......”

Ye Qiuqi pursed his lips and smiled awkwardly.

Qin Chuan glanced at him again, but before he could speak, his eyes suddenly looked at the scattered ground, on a picture scroll. Seeing this, Ye Qiuqi was slightly suspicious, and also looked towards that place.

A picture scroll that was originally tied, because of the change just now, happened to spread out, rolled down, and spread in this study. On it, there is a holy and noble woman, peerless, floating like a fairy, although it is only a painting, but it still makes people fascinated and deterred.

But it is......

"It's ......"

Qin Chuan and Ye Qiuqi both had slightly changed their faces, a little frightened.

The person on the painting is actually the mysterious woman who just appeared!
