"Mr. Mo, Ye Qingtian's strength is really extraordinary. Although I defeated him, I couldn't kill him. Therefore, I didn't lose the Taiyuan Token. I'm really sorry!"
Zhou Bao leaned on the armchair and looked at Mo Yinyang, who was standing not far away from him. A seemingly guilty smile flashed across his face.
"Hehe, Your Excellency Zhou, you're too polite. I'm just interested in the Taiyuan Token!" Mo Yinyang smiled, but he was secretly surprised. He hid in the dark and watched the whole process of the fight between Zhou Bao and Ye Qingtian. Of course, he only saw the beginning, the process of Zhou Bao cutting off the Starlight Bridge with the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword, and the weird starry blue Qi bursting out of Ye Qingtian's body and tearing the hollow to escape. Besides that, most of the time, the two of them were shrouded in starlight. However, the huge Qi Power bursting out of the starlight made him feel a chill rising from the bottom of his heart.
Even a Level Eight expert like him couldn't help but think that he couldn't fight against him.
In the past, he knew that both Ye Qingtian and Zhou Bao were strong, but he had never seen them fight with all their strength. Now he saw it. Compared with experts like them, this was a complete suppression in terms of realms. They could not even muster the slightest resistance. Therefore, when facing Zhou Bao now, his attitude became much more respectful than when they first met.
"However, I have a presumptuous request. I hope Your Excellency Zhou can consider it!"
"If you have something to say, just say it. This time, I owe you a favor. As long as I can do it, I will definitely help you!" Zhou Bao nodded. No matter what Mo Yinyang's intention was, if it were not for him, Yan Yunfei, who followed him back to the territory, would be in trouble even if he was fine. After all, among the 100 people who went with him, more than 10 died in the fight between him and Ye Qingtian. The rest were all wounded, and more than half of them were seriously injured.
"Actually, it's very simple for Your Excellency. If you have the chance to get the Taiyuan Token, please don't forget me and take me with you to Taiyuan Heaven!"
Zhou Bao was slightly stunned and looked at Mo Yinyang in confusion. "The Taiyuan Token is with Ye Qingtian. He has torn the space. Where can I find him?"
"There's more than one Taiyuan Token." Mo Yinyang smiled confidently. "Moreover, Taiyuan Heaven is about to open. With Lord Zhou's strength, you're definitely qualified to get a Taiyuan Token. According to the rules, a Taiyuan Token can let three people enter Taiyuan Heaven at the same time. That's why I have this request!"
"Oh? You mean the Jin Dynasty also has a Taiyuan Token?! "
"Of course. But like the Li Dynasty, the Taiyuan Token has always been in the hands of the biggest influences. If Lord Zhou really wants to enter Taiyuan Heaven, maybe you can fight for it!" Speaking of this, Mo Yinyang's eyes flashed with a hint of a smile. "Since Your Excellency knows about the 33 Heavens, you naturally know that the spiritual qi in the 33 Heavens is thousands of times stronger than that in the present world. Besides, there are all kinds of treasures in there, which have been lost in the present world. If you can go there, it'll definitely be of great benefit to your strength. With your aptitude and strength, maybe when you come out, you'll be able to reach Level Nine, or even the Mysterious Realm!"
"Hehe, it's still too early to talk about this. But if what you said is true, I can really give it a try!" Zhou Bao nodded and said, "Well, there's still some time before the opening of Taiyuan Heaven. What's your plan, Mr. Mo?"
"Although the Li Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty are not very different, they have their own unique customs and customs. I want to take this opportunity to have a good tour in the Jin Dynasty. Ten days before the opening of Taiyuan Heaven, whether Your Excellency has a Taiyuan Token or not, I'll definitely come back to see you!"
"Okay, it's a deal!" Zhou Bao patted the handle of the chair and said, "Then I'll be waiting for your arrival here!"
Mo Yinyang smiled and bowed to Zhou Bao. Then he turned into smoke and left.
After Mo Yinyang left, Zhou Bao looked serious and said, "Zhu Ba, come in!"
The voice came from inside the room to the outside of the courtyard. Then, Zhu Ba ran in eagerly and said, "Your Excellency, are you looking for me?"
"How did you deal with those nine fellows? Is there any news? " Zhou Bao asked with a smile. Except for Ye Qingtian who ran away, the other nine assassins from the Li Dynasty were all caught by Zhou Bao. Although they were all experts at Level Seven or Eight, when Zhou Bao was in a bad mood, they could only admit that they were unlucky.
After being caught by Zhou Bao, Zhou Bao did not ask any questions. He directly sealed their acupoints and tendons and threw them to Zhu Ba to deal with.
"Your Excellency, these guys are all tough. Common instruments of torture can't do anything to them. It's only when I do it myself that it works!" Zhu Ba said with a smile, secretly admiring his boss. He was really powerful. First, he challenged the Mingyi School alone. Now, he was even more powerful. He restrained nine experts at Level Seven or Eight at once. Not only in the Jin Dynasty, but also in the whole world, there were not many people who had such ability and courage.
"Don't talk nonsense. Tell me, where did they come from? What benefits do they have!?" Although they came from the Li Dynasty together, these assassins were not familiar with each other. Mo Yinyang only knew the background of some of them.
"Hehe, Your Excellency, some of them are very stubborn. But I managed to pry open one of their mouths at last. These guys all came from the Li Dynasty. They were ordered by the bullshit Third Prince to make trouble for you. In addition to them, there were two other people. One of them was mysterious and Mo Yinyang didn't know his identity. The other one was called Ye Qingtian, the one who was defeated by you. He was the most powerful one among them!" Zhu Ba said, rubbing his hands excitedly. "These guys were all very rich. Each of them had celestial devices, and some of them had more than one. This time, I found 19 celestial devices, five of which were celestial devices in the Mysterious Level and 14 of which were celestial devices in the Psychic Level. All of them had magical effects. There were also many materials and medicinal herbs!" Speaking of this, he glanced at Zhou Bao. "One of them seemed to be the leader. He had a weird ring. I always felt that something was wrong, but I didn't know what was wrong. He refused to tell me, so I brought him here!" While speaking, he presented a ring inlaid with a sapphire to Zhou Bao.
"Oh, a Space Ring?" Seeing this ring, Zhou Bao's expression changed involuntarily. This ring seemed to be made of ordinary materials. However, there was a subtle and unique space wave on the surface of the sapphire. This kind of wave could even hide from a Level Nine expert, but it could not hide from Zhou Bao's spiritual mind.
"This is a Space Ring. Your strength is not enough, and your spiritual mind is too poor. The reason you can feel the abnormality is probably because of your eyes, right?"
"Hehe, yes, Your Excellency is wise!" Zhu Ba nodded with a silly smile.
Zhou Bao glanced at him, but he used his divine thoughts to explore the sapphire ring.
"Eh?"
The space inside the ring was not large, only about 10 cubic meters. It was much smaller than Zhou Bao's Space of Segmented Realms. There were not many things inside, most of which were medicinal materials and a few weapons and celestial devices. Judging from the quality of those weapons, they were all at the Secondary Heavenly Weapon Level. Most of the celestial devices were at the Psychic Level. Only one of them was at the Mysterious Level. If they were in Jianghu, it would be enough to set off a bloody storm. However, in Zhou Bao's eyes, it was nothing. However, there was one thing that interested Zhou Bao. It was placed in a corner of the Space Ring. It looked flat, like a willow leaf. Zhou Bao did not know what it was made of. It was neither gold nor wood. It looked like a piece of rotten wood, but it had a metallic luster. Most importantly, there was a weird formation engraved on it.
"Eh, isn't this a flying boat? I thought it was lost. I didn't expect it to still exist. It's really rare! "
At this time, Green Spirit came over and also saw that thing. He looked a little surprised.
"A flying boat? Can this thing fly?!"
"It can't. It needs a lot of the essential energy of the world to fly. The essential energy of the world can't guarantee that it can fly to the sky!" Green Spirit flatly denied Zhou Bao's question. This magic formation has three main functions. The first is to absorb the essential energy of the world. The second is to transform the essential energy of the world into the power of flight. The third is to control the formation. This is the simplest flying boat and the least valuable one. However, it's perfectly preserved! "
"It needs to rely on the essential energy of the world to fly?"
Zhou Bao was immediately disappointed. The function of this thing was like a small plane. With this thing, even an ordinary person could fly in the sky. Although it was not very useful to him, it was a good way for his family to travel between Yunzhou and the Wuyang Region.
"Unless you can modify this formation and get something full of the essence of the world. By the way, you just got the Sky-measuring Star Ruler. There is enough star force in it. If you are willing to use it as the power, I can guarantee that your flying boat will fly faster than you!"
"I'm not stupid!" Zhou Bao cursed in a low voice and withdrew his divine thoughts from the ring. "Zhu Ba, you did a good job this time. There are 19 celestial devices in total. Plus this one, there are 20. Besides this ring, I want nine more celestial devices. The remaining 10 are all yours. You can divide them however you want. I don't care. Do you understand?"
"Thank you, Your Excellency!" Zhu Ba was overjoyed. Ten celestial devices! If they were sold in Jianghu, they would be enough for him to live a luxurious life for ten lifetimes! "
"Don't be too happy too early. It's useless to have so many celestial devices. It's better to concentrate on one. How's my Demon Devil Needles going?"
"Your Excellency, I've finished refining the Demon Devil Needles and can barely set up the Demon Devil Formation. I believe it won't be long before I can operate it freely."
"Good, very good!" Zhou Bao nodded. "There are many mysteries hidden in the Demon Devil Formation. If you carefully comprehend it, it will be very helpful to your martial arts practice. Don't neglect the practice of the Demon Devil Needles just because you have so many celestial devices!"
"Yes, I wouldn't dare!"
"Take me to see the guy who spoke!" Zhou Bao stood up and said, "I'd like to know if this guy is of any use!"
"Yes, Your Excellency!"
After a few months of construction, Zhou Bao's Wuyang Region had begun to take shape. Of course, this referred to the small town centralization. Now the area of the town centralization had doubled and there were many more buildings. Similarly, Zhou Bao's residence was also three times larger than before. Things were different now. In the past, Zhou Bao was alone. Even if he had a bed, it would be enough. Now he had a wife, a princess of the imperial court. Even if this territory had just been built, at least the place where he lived had to be presentable. It could not be as grand as the imperial palace in the capital city, but it had to be presentable.
To the west of Zhou Bao's residence was the political center of the entire Wuyang Region. It was also a large mansion, where Jiang Xiao and the others worked. At the same time, it was also the location of the newly built prison.
However, there was no formal prison in the Wuyang Region, only a dungeon.
"Your Excellency, it's here!" Following Zhu Ba into the dungeon, Zhou Bao could not help but cover his nose when he smelled a fishy stench. "Zhu Ba, what the hell are you doing? This place has only been dug for less than half a month. How many people have you caught? Why does it smell so bad? "
"Hehe, Your Excellency, I don't dare to catch people randomly. Only the nine you sent last time. But they are very stubborn. Of course, I have to make them suffer!" Zhu Ba hurriedly said.
"Damn, only nine people, and it's already like this?" Zhou Bao cursed in a low voice.
"Hey, Your Excellency, be careful!" Walking to a low passageway, Zhu Ba cautioned Zhou Bao carefully in front of him. After passing through the passageway, Zhou Bao heard waves of screams.
"Why, are they still going on?"
"Your Excellency, those eight people refused a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. How dare they have designs on Your Excellency. Even if we can't get anything out of them, we can at least make them suffer a little. Please!"
Zhou Bao glanced at him and did not speak. Indeed, there was no need to be polite to these people who came to make trouble for him.
Zhu Ba led Zhou Bao to a small single room. It was not big, low, and damp, but he believed that compared to those guys who were suffering outside, it was a comfortable place to be.
There was a bed and a table in the single room. A candle was lit on the table, and a man was lying on the bed. His body was stained with blood, and his face was pale. When he saw the door open, his face flashed with excitement.
But when he saw Zhou Bao, he subconsciously shivered and shrank back.
"Am I that scary?" Seeing his movement, Zhou Bao smiled bitterly and walked to the bed. "Don't worry, since you are cooperating with us, I will definitely not treat you badly!"
The man nodded, and his tense body slowly relaxed. But when he looked at Zhou Bao, there was still a look of extreme fear in his eyes.
"Tell me, what's your name? What's your background?" Zhou Bao tried to make his tone gentle, for fear of scaring the guy in front of him. But in his heart, he was puzzled. How could such a timid guy practice to Level Eight? Moreover, his strength was above average among the nine people. It was really weird.
"I, I am Tan Yuelan, from the Li Dynasty …!"
Tan Yuelan put down his fear and slowly told him about his situation. At first, he was a little nervous and stuttered. But later, he relaxed and spoke more and more fluently. Soon, he had a good understanding of this guy's situation. Tan Yuelan was a little nervous and stuttered a little.
Tan Yuelan's status in the Li Dynasty was very noble. He was the brother-in-law of the Emperor of the Li Dynasty and the uncle of the Third Prince. He was born in the Tan Family of the Li Dynasty. The Tan Family's status in the Li Dynasty was very noble. It was equivalent to the millennium world of the Jin, and it was even more profound than the millennium well-known families of the Jin.
Tan Yuelan's aptitude was excellent. Coupled with the Tan Family's heritage and strength, his cultivation speed was faster than others since he was a child. At the age of 20, with the help of various martial arts incantations and elixirs, he successfully broke through Level Six and became a Level Seven expert. He also became one of the main forces of the Tan Family. After another 20 years of cultivation, he successfully broke through Level Eight. Moreover, with the help of the family, he actually found a place with the best quality Evil Qi and cultivated an extremely powerful Gang Qi, greatly increasing his strength.
It could be said that his practice was completely based on the family's strength, the accumulation of various elixirs and opportunities. Coupled with his noble birth, he had never experienced a decent battle formation in his life. He had the combat capability but no combat experience. Most importantly, he had never suffered much. Now that his strength was sealed by Zhou Bao and he was beaten and frightened by the fierce Zhu Ba, his mental defense collapsed after a few rounds. Of course, he told everything he knew.
However, Zhu Ba was good at torturing people, but he was not good at interrogating people. He did not get much information.
But Zhou Bao was different. After an hour, he knew all the information about the entire Li Dynasty and the Third Prince.
Tan Yuelan was the Third Prince's uncle and also his confidant. So he knew all the Third Prince's secrets. He even knew why the Third Prince was so entangled with Yan Yunfei. So, he solved the mystery in his heart.
Previously, he really doubted Mo Yinyang's words. As the Third Prince of the Li Dynasty, he was so noble that he could have any woman he wanted. For a woman like Yan Yunfei, whom he had never met before, they actually sent so many experts to cross hundreds of thousands of miles of the ocean to kill him? Any normal person would not do such a thing. This was a typical case of brain damage.
But after Tan Yuelan's explanation, Zhou Bao understood.
The wife he married was really not ordinary. Yan Yunfei had the Sacred Root!
What was the Sacred Root?
Zhou Bao did not know, but Green Spirit knew it very well. After Green Spirit's explanation, Zhou Bao finally understood. His eyes blinked and were full of stars. But soon, his eyebrows and eyes became vertical.
"Motherf * cker, how dare he want to do Dual Cultivation with my wife. Damn it, he's dead meat. That damn Third Prince, I must kill him!" Zhou Bao cursed with hatred.
"Boy, don't think about killing people. I think you'd better learn a Dual Cultivation Method first!" Green Spirit said coldly, "Hehe, the Sacred Spiritual Root. Such a root bone is rare even in antiquity times. Boy, you really have a good eyesight!"
"Humph, the Li Dynasty is really ambitious. They even extended their hands to Great Jin. They even know that Yunfei has the Sacred Root. I think even Yan Yuntian doesn't know this. Otherwise, he would not marry Yunfei to me so easily!" Zhou Bao smiled coldly.
"Yes, if he knows that his daughter has the Sacred Roots, he doesn't need to worry about you at all. With this as a bait, he can even make the experts in the Mysterious Realm let go of all scruples to kill you!"
"Unfortunately, he has missed the best opportunity!" Zhou Bao said, feeling relieved in his heart. "I remember you said that you know a lot of Dual Cultivation Methods. What do you think? Let's play with one!"
"Hahahaha, okay, no problem!" Green Spirit laughed out loud, and there was a hint of lasciviousness in his laughter.
… …
… …
Ten days later, in the Wuyang Region, in Zhou Bao's mansion, in the Secret Practice Room.
Zhou Bao sat cross-legged on a cattail hassock, surrounded by black Qi. Now, the black Internal Qi on his body was not as hot as before. On the contrary, the black Internal Qi was as fine as cream, giving off a jade-like feeling.
Yes, a jade-like feeling.
As the saying goes, "Warm jade gives birth to smoke". Now, Zhou Bao's Internal Qi gave people a feeling of "warm jade".
"Hehe, Real Essence, Real Essence, Green Spirit, how is my Internal Qi compared to the Real Essence?"
"Humph, you've been nourished by the Divine Qi. What's there to compare?" Green Spirit said. "You've already absorbed the power of the Sacred Roots. Even if your Internal Qi is not as strong as the Real Essence now, it will become very strong in a short time. Sacred Roots! Boy, you married a wife with the Sacred Roots and successfully absorbed the power of the Sacred Roots. You really didn't know that the little girl had the Sacred Roots before?
"I don't even know what the Sacred Root is. How would I know whether she has it or not?" Zhou Bao said helplessly.
"I see!" Green Spirit paused and thought for a while. Suddenly, he raised his head and said to Zhou Bao, "Boy, what do you think? I'll follow you from now on. When I reach the Mysterious Realm and get the Individual Immortal Karma Rank, I'll teach you all the Divine Senses and secret skills I know. What do you think?"
"Oh, why do you have such an idea?"
"Because of your fate!" Green Spirit said seriously, "According to what you said, you just met Yan Yunfei once and had a little idea. Then, you took the opportunity to marry her. Although you experienced two battles, you were confident and didn't face any danger. You could say that the process was very smooth, which proves that you have something that others don't: fate. I'm very, very lucky. There are many people in the world with good looks, good characters, and good backgrounds. But there are only three or four people in the same era who are as lucky as you. In the present world, I'm afraid that only the unlucky Ye Qingtian has such a fate. Generally speaking, you won't suffer any losses if you follow someone like you!"
