Chapter Ninety-Six: Coming to Help
This incident hit the entire hunting team a lot, after all, half of the people were stunned, and more than a hundred light thieves came to ambush them, if it wasn't for the luck of being saved by an unknown senior, I'm afraid that the Shui family hunting team would be wiped out this time.
After this incident, everyone's hearts were tense, and for a while, the entire hunting team was in turmoil.
The Light Thief, a huge group of thieves who are famous throughout the Death of the Stars.
It is said that their leader is a strong person who steps on the void, and there is not only one step on the void, there are thousands of thieves from the Heavenly Gate and 30,000 thieves with open veins below the void, and no one can cure them in all directions.
However, the most famous thing about these light thieves is not how strong their power is, how many people there are, the most feared thing is the cruelty and undying of the light thieves, all the prey that is targeted has not escaped, and all of them have been brutally killed.
Offended them, never dying, there was once a family that was not weaker than the Shui family because of the loss of a very important treasure to the light thieves, more than three thousand light thieves died in the hands of that family.
Because there are three strong people in the clan, they don't care about the revenge of the light thieves.
Then, their nightmare came!
All the caravans, all the cultivators who went out disappeared for no reason, and the light thieves came and went without a trace, and there was no way to find it at all, and in the end, the family was completely broken up due to the inability to succeed and the financial crisis.
But the Bright Thieves still didn't let them go, and all the people who escaped were hung on the city where the family was originally located in the next three months, even the three strong people who stepped on the void were no exception.
Since then, the Bright Thief has become famous!
The current Shui family is not as good as that family, in order to prevent the light thieves from attacking again, Shui Xinyue decided to ask the family for help.
At the same time, because she was afraid of being caught up by the light thieves again, Shui Xinyue ordered to set off as fast as possible, day and night, although the night was very dangerous, but it was better than being caught up by the light thieves and killing them all.
It's a pity, Xingchen is still too poor, Ji Changkong couldn't help but sigh when he looked at this scene.
Starlight Fish is a living creature, and once it dies, it will be very useless, so it can't fit into an ordinary storage ring, and can only be raised alive by the water of the Lancang River, and if they can have a storage space that can hold live things, why bother.
Directly send two masters to bring storage rings, thousands of miles away, with the speed of stepping on the weak powerhouse, it is not possible to reach it in one day, where is there so much trouble.
It's a pity that the value of the storage ring that can store living things is too high, not to mention the mere Shui family, even many Demon Blood City families may not be able to afford it!
......
Towards evening, reinforcements finally arrived!
A small black dot in the void quickly approached, and at the same time, a vast coercion also quickly descended, extremely terrifying, this is the power of the strong man who stepped on the void.
A moment later, a figure fell from the void, it was a slightly old figure, the hair was already half white, the thin body and a green cloth robe looked very ordinary, without the domineering that a weak and strong person should have.
This is Ji Changkong's judgment on him.
Although he looks like he is only forty or fifty years old, and his hair has just turned gray, the fact is that his life is about to end.
A strong person who steps on the void, before Shouyuan is exhausted, there is no way to say Huafa, only when Shouyuan is about to expire, he will age rapidly, and at that time it means that his Shouyuan is less than three years at most.
"Uncle Zhang, you're finally here, you're worried about me," It wasn't until she saw someone who came that Shui Xinyue completely relaxed her originally frowning brows.
"Xiao Yue, your father rushed over when he received your news, what happened, you tell me first, and I can be prepared," the old man known as Uncle Zhang smiled kindly.
"Okay, Uncle Zhang, come with me," Shui Xinyue smiled slightly and took the old man to the carriage.
......
Because the reinforcements had arrived, and it was approaching evening, the hunting team was not in a hurry to leave, and the original panic calmed down again and began to set up the camp.
Ji Changkong was not moved by the arrival of a strong person, even if he stood in front of him, he couldn't see his own details, and even if he saw it, what could he do, he couldn't thank himself!
"You are Ji Changkong!"
With an old greeting, Ji Changkong, who was setting up a tent, only felt that the space around him changed, and then everything in front of him disappeared, replaced by a vast and endless void.
"Hehe," he smiled and didn't care, and casually pressed down the stake in his hand, just in time to fix the last corner of the tent.
"I don't have any ill will towards you, if you're smart, you shouldn't have seen me," Ignoring the old man's dumbfounded expression, Ji Changkong clapped his hands casually.
"Who the hell are you," the old man surnamed Zhang was completely shocked!
Although the trick just now was simple, the structure of the illusion realm was also extremely ingenious, at least he thought that the monks below the Void Realm had no possibility of breaking it, but the person in front of him was so easy that he couldn't even think about it directly, which shocked him inexplicably.
You must know that even cultivators who are also stepping on the void are not so simple to break through!
Originally, he was just a little curious when he heard Shui Xinyue say that there was such a person, and he appeared in an inappropriate place at an inappropriate time, after all, according to Shui Xinyue, he was just a mortal.
But now it seems that where is this mortal, he is simply a terrifying powerhouse than himself!
"That's it, if you don't make it clear, I guess you won't feel at ease, your Shui family caravan saved me once, so I helped you make a move, but I didn't leave because something else happened in the middle," Ji Changkong glanced at him lightly.
"I don't know, what do you have that my Shui family can serve?" said the old man surnamed Zhang with some hesitation.
In the face of such a strong man who does not know the depth and origin, he is under great pressure, but for the sake of the Shui family, he has to ask hard.
"It's very simple, I heard that your Shui family got a treasure map......
"Shut up!"
Before Ji Changkong finished speaking, the old man surnamed Zhang suddenly yelled, he looked around nervously, although he knew that no one would hear it, but he still wanted to make sure that he said it again.
"Don't worry, there's no one else around," Ji Changkong smiled slightly.
"You, how do you know, my Shui family has never spread the word...... "Maybe he noticed that his tone just now was really inappropriate, and the old man surnamed Zhang said a little apprehensively.
"No rumors?, how did the Bright Thief know, he really thought it was seamless," Ji Changkong said disdainfully.
"Bright thief, you said they came for the treasure map?" Hearing this, the old man surnamed Zhang's face suddenly turned pale.
"Otherwise, what do you think," Ji Changkong looked at him with an idiot-like gaze.
"Yes, yes, no wonder, no wonder the Shui family has been doing so much recently," the old man surnamed Zhang gritted his teeth and muttered to himself.
"Now you have two choices, one is for us to cooperate, don't worry, I know your purpose, isn't it just to prolong your life, and when you find the medicine king, I can let you live to the limit of stepping on the void powerhouse, and give you enough resources to break through the realm of stepping on the void," Ji Changkong said confidently.
"This ...... The old man surnamed Zhang was silent.
Indeed, he is just a guest of the Shui family, and he can't work so hard for the Shui family, and the reason why he is so is for this medicine king.
With the Medicine King, he will be able to live another sixty years!
Don't be surprised, although the Medicine King can prolong the life of the celestial beings for eight hundred years, but the cultivators who step on the void are not celestials, they have their own limits, and when they reach the limit, even taking holy medicine will not help.
Otherwise, it doesn't mean that as long as there are enough elixirs, that mortal can live indefinitely!
This is impossible, not to mention whether there are so many life-prolonging elixirs, just to say that a life-prolonging elixir is only effective once, and this restriction is to destroy their ideas.
"You can really provide enough resources for me to break through the realm of stepping into the void," after a long time, the old man surnamed Zhang suddenly raised his head and gritted his teeth.
"Of course, this is a million spirit stones," Ji Changkong casually took out a storage ring and threw it to him.
"One, one million...... The old man surnamed Zhang was already scared stupid.
Even the total income of the Shui family for ten years is not so much, he took the storage ring tremblingly, leaned out his divine sense to look at it, and sure enough, a million spirit stones were piled up into a hill in the storage ring.
At this moment, his whole body trembled.
I think he has never seen so much wealth in his life, and even one percent of it has never been seen, although this is just a drop in the bucket for Ji Changkong, but for him, it is simply a shocking treasure, enough for him to do anything.
"Okay, I agreed, I hope you keep the agreement," With the temptation of the spirit stone, the old man surnamed Zhang agreed to Ji Changkong's request without hesitation.
"Don't worry, prolong your life, one leaf of the Medicine King is enough, I won't break my promise," Ji Changkong nodded and sighed secretly in his heart, this Xingchen's death is really miserable, although the strong people in the outside world may not be rich, but they still have tens of thousands of spirit stones on their bodies.
There, like this, a million spirit stones can be excited like this!
"That's good, since that's the case, I'll go back and kill the ancestor of the Shui family to snatch the treasure map," the old man surnamed Zhang is also a ruthless person, and the Shui family, who has been worshiped for so many years, said that he would betray without hesitation.
"No need, the Shui family has saved me in the end, and I have a kindness to repay the kindness, and I don't need this method at all if I want the Medicine King, you can tell the Shui family ancestor my conditions, and he will know how to choose," Ji Changkong waved his hand.
"Okay," the old man surnamed Zhang was slightly stunned, and then the vigilance in his eyes dissipated for three points.
To be honest, he actually didn't believe in Ji Changkong very much, after all, it was the king of medicine, and the temptation was too great, now he said it well, in case he regretted it when the time came, he couldn't even cry.
The reason why he agreed, one was for these spirit stones, and the second was because he was really not sure about fighting against Ji Changkong, so he had to do it as a last resort.
However, looking at Ji Changkong's attitude towards the Shui family, he immediately felt a lot more relieved.
I'd rather give up a part of my interests than be ungrateful, such a person shouldn't break his word!
