Of course, as an important resource for cultivation, the more spiritual stones the better for Ling Xiao. He knew that only sufficient spiritual stones could support his dream of constantly breaking through himself and climbing to the pinnacle of martial arts.

Therefore, when he saw the mountains of spiritual stones piled up in Shangguan Yu's storage ring, he couldn't help but feel a burst of ecstasy in his heart.

However, what made Ling Xiao even more excited was that he found a middle-grade earth-level sword in Shangguan Yu's storage ring. The sword's blade flashed with cold light, revealing a fierce momentum, as if it could

Cut off all obstacles.

Ling Xiao knew very well that if this sword was swallowed by the soul of his God-killing Sword, it would at least promote the God-killing Sword to a low-grade earth-level weapon.

Such an improvement will undoubtedly greatly increase his combat effectiveness.

It is said that the most suitable weapons for martial soul level masters are earth-level weapons.

Weapons of this level are not only extremely sharp, but also contain powerful power and spirituality. They can have a deep connection with warriors and exert more powerful power. Although Ling Xiao is only at the first level of Hunyuan Realm, his actual combat skills

However, his strength has definitely reached the first level of the Martial Soul Realm.

Therefore, only earth-level weapons can match his current strength.

Ling Xiao stroked this middle-grade earth-level sword, his eyes flashing with hot light.

"Alas..." Mr. Jiu looked at the lifeless corpse on the ground, with mixed feelings in his heart. He sighed, as if he wanted to pour out all his worries and helplessness. He looked into the distance, with a deep look in his eyes.

concern.

Ling Xiao noticed Jiu Lao's look, turned around, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and then asked respectfully: "Senior, do you think my way of handling this matter is too reckless?"

Jiu Lao withdrew his gaze, turned to Ling Xiao, nodded slightly and said: "Do you know how terrifying the Empress' Palace is? Their power in the East China Sea is huge, and no one dares to provoke it easily. You killed Shangguan Yu today. With the Empress' temper, she will never

If you give up, you will face endless pursuit and revenge."

When Ling Xiao heard this, he was slightly startled, but then his face returned to calmness. He responded calmly: "Oh, I understand." His tone was very calm, as if he did not take Jiu Lao's warning to heart.

superior.

Jiu Lao looked at Ling Xiao's nonchalant look and couldn't help but feel helpless. He knew Ling Xiao's character well and knew that once he decided something, he would not change it easily.

So, he could only continue to admonish: "Well, whatever I tell you now, it's better for you to experience it yourself. But fortunately, these people are dead today. As long as neither of us speaks, there will be no

People will know about this.”

"By the time the Empress Palace finds out, it may be a long time ago. During this period, I hope you can work hard to practice and improve your strength. By then, you may have the ability to protect yourself."

Jiu Lao's words were full of worries and expectations. He hoped that through his admonishment, Ling Xiao would realize the seriousness of the situation and prepare in advance.

However, when he saw Ling Xiao's calm and firm eyes, he couldn't help but feel worried. He knew that although this young man was extremely talented, he also had an impulsive and adventurous character. He hoped that he could survive this storm safely.

spend.

"I think so too," Ling Xiao's eyes flashed with determination and his voice was cold, "Kill them all just to silence them. These guys' mouths are too tight. If they are left alive, there will be endless troubles."

??????55.??????

He nodded, turned his eyes to Jiu Lao, and said in a slightly softer tone: "Jiu Lao, this matter has come to an end. Why don't you come back to Tianxiahui with me. The resources and environment there are more suitable for you."

Jiu Lao sighed softly, with a trace of helplessness on his face: "Ling Xiao, I have publicly announced my withdrawal from the Tianxiahui. If I go back again, wouldn't it cause trouble to the Tianxiahui? Furthermore, the location of this grotto is secret, and I will stay here.

Here, I can not only accompany A Yao, but also continue my practice."

He paused and looked at Ling Xiao deeply: "I have taught you everything I have learned throughout my life. If you encounter any confusion or confusion during your cultivation, you can come to me at any time. Although it is remote here,

But I will always be here waiting for your arrival."

A warm current surged in Ling Xiao's heart. He knew that Jiu Lao was a person who valued affection and righteousness. Although they were not masters and disciples, he was deeply grateful for Jiu Lao's help and teachings to him.

He was silent for a moment, and then said: "Jiu Lao, your inheritance is priceless to me. But you still have one billion medium-grade spiritual stones here. This is too much, and I can't accept it."

With that said, Ling Xiao handed back Jiu Lao's storage ring.

Jiu Lao did not reach out to take it. He shook his head and said in a firm voice: "Ling Xiao, if I give it to you, it is given to you. There is no reason to take it back. What's more, I entrusted you to treat A Yao, so these spiritual stones should be regarded as given to you."

Pay for your hard work. Actually, these spiritual stones are far from enough, but that’s all I have.”

Ling Xiao looked at Jiu Lao's firm eyes and felt moved in his heart. He knew that Jiu Lao was a man of his word. Once he had made a decision, he would not change it.

So, he took a deep breath and put the storage ring away again: "Okay, then I'm welcome!"

He is not the kind of person to be shy. He has already said this and there is no need to refuse.

In the next few days, Ling Xiao did not choose to return to the busy Tianxiahui, but chose to study the mystery of the sacred pattern with Jiu Lao in this quiet grotto. In the grotto, the weak candlelight swayed, reflecting the two figures.

A focused and serious face.

Jiu Lao, this experienced researcher of sacred patterns, his eyes sparkled with persistence and love for the study of sacred patterns.

In the conversation with Ling Xiao, he elaborated on his unique insights into the improvement of the power of holy patterns under the special laws of the Baize Continent. These insights were unique and profound, like beams of light, illuminating Ling Xiao's situation in the world.

Confusion on the road to researching sacred patterns.

Ling Xiao listened quietly, his eyes flashing with a desire for knowledge. He found that although he had dabbled in sacred patterns, his understanding was still somewhat flawed compared with Jiu Lao, especially with this man.

Mainland China's laws don't quite fit in.

Jiu Lao's insights were not only profound, but also innovative, which made Ling Xiao sigh that his previous explorations were not as fast as the famous teacher's guidance.

During the in-depth exchanges with Ling Xiao, Jiu Lao gradually discovered the incredible talent possessed by this young man. When discussing the field of sacred patterns, Ling Xiao's performance shocked Jiu Lao.

No matter how profound and complex the theory Jiulao explained, Ling Xiao was always able to quickly understand and absorb it. He seemed to have an innate keen perception and could easily capture the subtle changes contained in the sacred patterns.
