Silver-grey moonlight enveloped the outer regions.
The cold breeze swept up the scattered clouds, leaving a desolate scene in the outer regions like a tree in autumn.
District 1, Mist Alliance HQ.
Fu Jun held a wine glass and leaned against the window of the three-story building, drinking alone. His right eye was still as clear as a cold pond. He gazed through the window towards the Gong Document Pavilion.
In his other hand was a slightly wrinkled black business card. If Qin Shi was here, he would realize that this was the business card Elder Yan gave him.
Putting down the wine glass, he played with the business card and clamped it between the index and middle fingers of his left hand to cover his right eye, attracting all his attention. For a moment, his mind was empty, and a touch of sadness appeared on his face.
"Gong Document Pavilion?
Elder Yan? "
He snorted softly as his thoughts sank into the sea of memories. He thought back to three years ago when he faced an old man at the same place.
The old man in his memories had a sage-like demeanor, wearing a golden dragon robe and looked very refreshed.
This old man was Fu Jun's master.
Returning to reality, Fu Jun put down the black business card. "I've only given this black business card to one person in my life. Master … is it you?"
"If it is, why didn't you come back to meet disciple?
Do you know how hard disciple has waited for you these three years?
Master …! "
Fu Jun exhaled and shook his head with a bitter smile. His right eye was finally no longer blurry as he shouted towards the door, "Come in."
Two Mist Alliance disciples quickly entered.
"Call You Qing and tell him to bring a few strong members who are good at hiding to the fifth district to secretly protect Qin Shi. Don't let anything happen to him."
"Yes!" The two disciples answered.
Looking at the two leaving, Fu Jun's gaze was sharp as he clenched the business card in his hand. "Master, don't worry. Disciple will do whatever you ask even if I have to fight for the world. This Qin Shi will be fine in the outer regions. I promise."
At the same time, fifth district, 17th street, 17th street.
In the secret room.
Qin Shi's ten fingers clenched together, and a power that he hadn't felt for a long time surged into his fingertips. In an instant, boundless mental energy took form, and a golden radiance was reflected from his black pupils. He was like a mischievous little spirit that was happily jumping about.
Looking at the golden ball of light on his fingertip, his lips curled up in excitement.
Inadvertently, he found that his mental power actually improved again?
His 360,000 meter Sea of Consciousness, which had just broken through the third curse, was still a little empty. Unexpectedly, after these three days of recuperation, his Sea of Consciousness had regained its luster and had actually become slightly full. The mental energy inside seemed to have some momentum, as if it wanted to break free from his Sea of Consciousness, allowing him to step into the peak of the third curse in one go.
Qin Shi was wild with joy at this unexpected harvest. "It seems that this Pure Holy Spirit Spring is really as magical as what the Evil Spirit Demon said. I originally thought that with my severe injuries, even if I recovered my spiritual cultivation, I would be stuck in a short period of time. I didn't expect that it would be a blessing in disguise."
He believed that as long as he was given some time, he would be able to step into 4 curses.
However, he did not continue to cultivate. Instead, he puffed out his chest and exhaled the turbid air that he had been suppressing for a long time. He understood the logic of more haste, less speed. He had only broken through 3 curses less than half a month ago. Although his mental power had increased tremendously with the help of the pure spirit spring, it was ultimately due to external forces.
With the help of external forces, he had to stabilize his sea of consciousness. It was not a good thing to spoil things through excessive enthusiasm. This was a crucial moment. If he did not pay attention, it would be easy to leave behind hidden injuries in his future cultivation.
Furthermore, from 3 curses to 4 curses was the same as from 3 days to 4 days of spiritual power. It was a very important stage. He had to be careful with the foundation of this stage.
Furthermore, the bet between him and Ning Yu was still there. He did not wish to lose his waist token. In addition to the potential threat of Jian Zhun, he had to think of a way to stop him. He did not wish for anything to happen to Kong Hyun-hui.
With all these factors added together, he was clear that this was not the best time to break through.
"Next, it's time to work."
Stretching his body, Qin Shi smiled. An extraordinary light flashed between his brows. Following that, he strode out of the secret room.
He wrapped his loose black robe. Ever since he left the Chi Yan Empire, he had been wearing this black robe. He only changed it during the one month in the outer region. This black robe was already riddled with scars and could not be worn anymore.
However, he still insisted that this black robe was personally sewn by Yu Luocha. In his mind, he could not help but think of his wife who was currently in the Chi Yan Empire. His black eyes flickered with heartache and longing.
His longing was as deep as the ocean. He clenched his fists tightly.
Thinking about it, it was less than half a year since little Qin Shi was born. He had promised Yu Luocha that he would be by her side when the child was born.
"Luocha, don't be anxious. Wait for me."
He calmed his breathing and his eyes became determined. Because of this determination, he was certain that in the next half a year, he would be extraordinary in the outer regions of the Chaotic Zones. He would even shock the eight regions and the entire human world.
However, he did not know all of this yet. Everything would come later. What he needed to do now was to go to the Desolate Beast Mountain Range and make the Wraith Talisman. Then, he would earn enough contribution points to move to the first region.
"You're out?
How is it?
Have you recovered? "
The door to the secret room opened. Kong Hyun-hui worriedly welcomed him.
Looking at the beauty in front of him, Qin Shi knew that during the three days he was in seclusion, Kong Hyun-hui must have stayed by his side.
Her beautiful eyes were slightly red. She must have not slept for three days. Qin Shi could not help but feel sorry for her.
"I've recovered."
Qin Shi nodded and brushed aside Kong Hyun-hui's hair. "Thank you for the past few days. I will take you to the first region in a few days."
"I'm fine."
Kong Hyun-hui was about to act tough, but Qin Shi grabbed her shoulder and shook his head. "You, how can you say you're fine? Look at your eyes."
"I …!"
"Alright, listen to me and go rest. No one will disturb us tonight. When we wake up tomorrow, we will go to the Desolate Beast Mountain Range. Otherwise, I won't bring you."
Qin Shi interrupted Kong Hyun-hui. His black eyes flashed to the window. He frowned at the moonlight but immediately relaxed. He pushed Kong Hyun-hui to the second floor.
Kong Xianhui pouted, but she didn't try to be brave this time. She just grabbed onto Qin Shi at the entrance of the second floor and whispered, "You have to promise me that you won't run around. You have to let me see you when you wake up tomorrow morning."
"Don't worry. When you open your eyes tomorrow, the sun and I will be there. Your world will still be beautiful." Qin Shi promised solemnly and watched Kong Hyun-hui enter the guest room.
He let out a sigh of relief. He looked at the jadeite hanging on the door handle and smiled bitterly. He gently took it off.
"This silly girl, she didn't even inject any spiritual power into it. Is she going to hang it here and wait for someone to steal it?"
After playing with it in his hand, Qin Shi helped Kong Hyun-hui keep the jadeite safe. Then, his black eyes slightly narrowed. He opened his palm and pressed it on the door. A layer of gentle spiritual power surged out. It was mixed with a vast amount of spiritual power. It flashed with a golden light and enveloped the door. It was quite magical.
"Next, it's time to move around."
The guest room was sealed. Qin Shi's expression changed. A hint of killing intent flashed in his black eyes. Immediately, a violent aura rolled up his black robe. He locked his vision in the direction of three kilometers outside the window. Three sneaky figures appeared in his sea of consciousness.
Just now, when he was supporting Kong Xianhui, there were a few concentrated fluctuations in his Sea of Consciousness. Moreover, he dared to conclude that these three people had been here for more than a day or two. It was just that his Sea of Consciousness was damaged previously, so he didn't notice it.
"This Jian Zhun, it seems like he can't wait to kill me?"
His body flashed and turned into a flash of lightning. He closed the distance of three kilometers in one fell swoop. The three figures were pacing back and forth in the corner.
"Hehe, since you are here, why don't you come in and have a cup of tea? Why are you hiding so far away?" Qin Shi smiled lightly. The three people below were suddenly shocked.
The three people looked up and were stunned when they saw Qin Shi. "Qin Shi?
Why did you come out? "
"I came to look for you. Aren't you tired after staring at our house for so long?
Jian Zhun sent you here, right? "Qin Shi saw a big wound on the three people's chests and concluded that they were disciples from the Genesis Team.
The disciple in the lead looked gloomy. He sneered coldly. "You guessed it?
Since you guessed our identity, you actually dared to take the initiative to look for us. You're quite bold. "
"Is that so? I've always been quite bold. Moreover, I can't sleep peacefully with you guys peeping at me like this. Are you guys going to leave on your own, or do you want me to send you off?" Qin Shi shrugged his shoulders.
Hearing Qin Shi's words, the three disciples were stunned. The disciple who spoke just now burst into laughter. "Heh, how arrogant. Don't you know that we are here to kill you?"
"I know. I just feel that the three of you don't have the ability to do so. So, I want to advise you not to waste time and go back to get help."
"You …!"
"Don't talk nonsense with him. Previously, he didn't dare to cause trouble openly. Now that he has come to us, it's convenient for us. Attack!"
The three of them gritted their teeth. The first disciple directly shot forward. His cultivation was in the middle stage of the Five Heavens Realm, and he howled like a ghost. He swept up the silver moonlight and pounced on Qin Shi.
Qin Shi narrowed his eyes slightly. He wrapped his black robe tightly around himself and moved a few steps to the left. Then, he opened his eyes abruptly. A faint golden light flashed in his black pupils, and an invisible wave pierced out.
Boom!
With a bang, several cracks exploded in the sky. The disciple who attacked was of the fire attribute and was counterattacked by the golden light.
He was surprised that his move was forced, but he was not afraid. He quickened his pace, and a layer of illusory flaming palace covered his body, forming a pair of blazing fire wings.
The blazing air enveloped Qin Shi, and the smile on his lips gradually froze. He opened his fingers slightly and lowered his head, looking at the golden light flashing between his fingers.
"This feeling, it's been a long time."
Suddenly, he smiled, raised his fingers indifferently, and charged straight at the disciples of the Creation Team.
"I'll try using your recovered mental strength."
Thank you, adorable doll, for supporting Xiaoqian for so long.
