"You are also a Gold Spirit Guest?" Liu Ming finally opened his mouth.
"That's right, I am Qiu Longzhi, one of the four commanders of the Gold Spirit Guest. Yesterday, I received a report from two of my subordinates that there is a new Perfect Spirit Guest in Xuanjing. My hands are itching and I want to spar with you. "The blue haired, purple bearded man suddenly laughed as he spoke. The original cold expression was nowhere to be seen.
"Oh, so you are not here for Mister Sun's family?" Hearing this, Liu Ming's expression changed slightly.
"Hehe, I have already investigated the identities of the two officials that you kidnapped. They are all insignificant characters in the government and are not worthy of me personally making a move. Don't worry, since these two people are related to you, no matter what crime they were imprisoned for, as long as they don't appear in Xuanjing, I can guarantee that no one will cause trouble for them. "Qiu Longzhi gave a weird laugh as he spoke.
"Looks like Fellow Qiu is here for me. If that is the case, why don't we go over there and save the nearby roads from being destroyed. "Liu Ming glanced at the carriage of Mister Sun's family and spoke calmly.
"Of course, that is no problem. Fellow, please! " Qiu Longzhi said without hesitation. With a move of his body, he urged the gray cloud below him to fly towards a small forest not far away.
Liu Ming gave a few instructions to the people below him before moving his body to follow.
Moments later, the two of them faced each other in the air above the forest.
Seeing this, Qiu Longzhi spoke softly:
"Be careful. My strength is average but I am proficient in the techniques of Gu Insects. As long as you can block my Gu Insects, I will admit that I am not as good as you in this spar. "
As soon as he finished speaking, he calmly put on a leather holster in each of his hands and grabbed a leather bag at his waist before raising his hand.
Immediately, a buzzing sound could be heard in the air as hundreds of dark green insects appeared and danced around the man.
Liu Ming narrowed his eyes, and he was able to clearly see the appearance of these flying insects. They were all green dragonflies that had been enlarged several times. However, they had two pairs of fangs in their mouths and a black poisonous spike protruding from their tails, making them look extremely menacing.
"Go!"
Qiu Longzhi gave a low shout and pointed at Liu Ming. Almost half of the Gu worms turned into light green clouds and pounced at Liu Ming.
Liu Ming raised his eyebrows and made a hand sign with one hand. Immediately, spots of red light appeared in front of him and condensed into three scarlet red fireballs. With a shake of his sleeve, the fireballs flew toward the cloud of insects with a whistling sound.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
The three fireballs hit the swarm of insects accurately, turning into rolling fire clouds that engulfed the swarm of insects.
However, Liu Ming's expression did not relax at all. Instead, he changed his hand sign and seven or eight wind blades appeared out of thin air.
This was because when Qiu Longzhi saw that his Gu worms were enveloped by the fire clouds, he did not reveal an expression of worry. Instead, he had a faint smile on his face.
As expected, in the next moment, the sound of air breaking could be heard from within the fire clouds. The Gu worms rushed out from within. Other than their bodies being slightly charred, they did not seem to be injured at all.
Liu Ming had already expected this, but when he saw this scene, his pupils could not help but slightly shrink. He made a hand sign and the wind blades in front of him turned into a series of green lights that shot out.
"Peng! Peng!" After a series of muffled sounds, the wind blades turned into a series of green lights that slashed at the swarm of insects.
However, other than the first few that could not dodge in time and were cut in half, the other Gu worms scattered and dodged. Then, they buzzed and pounced at Liu Ming.
Seeing this, Liu Ming's expression darkened. Suddenly, he shook his sleeve and a green short sword appeared in his hand. With a slight wave, a dense sword shadow appeared in front of him.
"Totem! Come back! This is only a spar, but Fellow actually took out a Totem. Although these Gu worms are not bad, how can they withstand the attack of a real Totem? I also need to change to another type of Gu worm. " After Qiu Longzhi felt the terrifying power of the sword shadow, he could not remain calm and quickly shouted. His hands formed another hand sign.
The dragonfly-like Gu worms immediately paused and flew back.
At the same time, Qiu Longzhi took out another item from his leather bag and threw it at Liu Ming.
It was a shiny black beetle the size of a fist. With a flap of its blurry wings, it turned into a ball of black light and pounced at Liu Ming.
Without any hesitation, the Cyan Moon Sword in Liu Ming's hand suddenly became urgent. The green sword shadow expanded and the beetle was sucked into it.
Immediately, there was a loud screech!
Streaks of cold light slashed at the black beetle. Apart from knocking it to the ground and leaving numerous white marks on its hard shell, the beetle was actually unscathed.
"Haha, what do you think about this mutated Iron Worm? Its body has already reached the point where it can't even be harmed by swords or water. Normal totems can't harm it at all." Qiu Longzhi saw this and laughed.
"Is that so? Since it can't be cut open, then I will trap it." Hearing this, Liu Ming's eyes flashed coldly. Suddenly, his arm became blurry and a palm wrapped in black gas reached into the sword shadow like lightning, grabbing the black beetle.
The black beetle was shocked. It opened its mouth and was about to bite at the back of Liu Ming's hand.
However, right at this moment, a ball of azure light suddenly rippled out from the palm that was grabbing onto it. Following a sizzling sound, layers of ice appeared out of thin air on the surface of the beetle's body, instantly sealing it in a huge block of ice.
Following this, Liu Ming shook his wrist and threw the block of ice out. The green sword in his other hand moved and was about to slash at the block of ice.
"Fellow, please have mercy! I admit defeat in this spar. My Iron Gu is not afraid of anything, but it is afraid of being attacked by cold attribute energy. The defensive power of the Iron Gu is not even a tenth of its original strength. It cannot withstand a single strike from Fellow. "Seeing this, Qiu Longzhi jumped in fright and hastily shouted.
Hearing this, Liu Ming laughed. The sword that he had slashed out suddenly turned to the side. The blade became the back of the sword and he slapped the opposite side.
A muffled sound!
The block of ice immediately flew to the opposite side.
Seeing this, Qiu Longzhi's heart relaxed. From afar, he waved his hand and the block of ice flew into his hand. Following this, he made a hand sign and wisps of flames came out and wrapped around the block of ice. In an instant, the ice began to melt.
"Daoist Friend truly has a good technique. To be able to find the weakness of the Iron Parasite in such a short amount of time. However, Daoist Friend's technique should be from the Icicle Technique. It seems that you have cultivated it to the Small Success Realm. Otherwise, my parasite wouldn't have been trapped so quickly." Qiu Longzhi praised as he casted his technique.
"Fellow Qiu has good eyesight. The technique just now was indeed a transformation of the Icicle Technique. Does Fellow have any other Gu? Do you want to continue? "Liu Ming replied noncommittally.
"No need to compete. Although I have other Gu, I cannot use them in a spar. Tsk tsk, through the previous spar, I have already confirmed that Fellow is not a normal Late Spirit Apostle. There is no need for me to continue fighting. With Fellow Daoist's abilities, if you were willing to join the Imperial Court, you would most likely be given the position of a commander. How about it, are you interested? "After Qiu Longzhi freed the beetle from the block of ice, he smiled and asked Liu Ming.
"Join the Gold Spirit Guest? I'm afraid that's not possible. I am already a guest at the Hundred Spirit House. "Liu Ming paused for a moment before shaking his head.
"Fellow is a guest of the Hundred Spirit House and your backer is the Third Marquis. Tsk tsk, what a pity. I really don't dare to poach from the Third Marquis. Since it's like this, I won't force it. That's right, I still don't know Fellow's name. Not long from now, there will be a hidden exchange in Xuanjing. The people that go are all amazing people and I believe that there will be many good things. Is Fellow interested in participating? "Qiu Longzhi first showed a regretful expression before suddenly thinking of something and asked.
"My name is Qian Ming. If it's a hidden exchange, then I am quite interested. But when will it be held? "Hearing this, Liu Ming's heart jumped as he replied.
"About two months. After all, some Fellows are not from Xuanjing and will have to come from other places." Seeing that Liu Ming was interested, Qiu Longzhi grinned as he replied.
"Okay, then I will be there on time." Liu Ming replied without hesitation.
"Very good, I will vouch for Fellow Qian and send an invitation ahead of time." Hearing this, Qiu Longzhi happily replied.
Liu Ming naturally gave his thanks.
In the remaining time, the two chatted for a while before Liu Ming bid farewell and flew back to the carriages.
After a while, the three carriages that were stopped on the road once again flew forward.
Qiu Longzhi stayed in the air above the forest and watched the carriages leave with a face full of thought.
"Boss Qiu, are we really not going to make a move? We have already placed two formation flags below. As long as we lure him down and help him, he won't be able to escape no matter how strong he is. "
Suddenly, a man's confused voice came from the forest.
Then, a faint green light flashed from one of the trees and two figures flew out. After a few blurs, they stopped beside Qiu Longzhi like ghosts.
"My two brothers, I'll have you set up the spell formation below as a backup plan in case of an emergency. With this kind of strength, who would dare say that they would be able to take him down? If he escapes, then both you and I will be in endless trouble. The key is, why would I want to be the bad guy and offend this person? "Qiu Longzhi calmly replied.
The two that appeared were a pair of skinny men with similar faces. They were both dressed in black and had disheveled hair. Their ten fingers were sharp, giving off an eerie feeling as if they had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
"But when boss was discussing with the other commanders …" One of the men in black heard this and hesitated.
