The person calling him this time was the liaison player stationed in the courtyard.
The stuff has arrived.
There are three jade boxes in total, each of which contains heavenly materials and earthly treasures that can be used to strengthen the soul. This is only the first batch. Some of the subsequent ones are on their way to be delivered, while others are still being collected.
After Xiao Zhi got these three jade boxes, he asked the demon Li Kuo to temporarily disperse the surrounding layer of restrictions, opened one of the jade boxes in front of several players, and started to 'test the medicine'.
This was a small request put forward by the All Beings Army. They wanted to use this to collect relevant data on these heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Xiao Zhi did not refuse.
The first jade box contained a flower, a flower with blood-colored markings. It exuded a pungent smell of blood, giving people a not-so-good feeling.
When seeing it, let alone others, even Xiao Zhi couldn't help but frown slightly.
He began to stare at the flower, and soon, a line of text appeared in front of his eyes:
The Blood Spirit Flower is a treasure of heaven and earth, containing highly poisonous and slight curses. Monks below will die if they eat it, but high-level monks can strengthen their souls to a certain extent if they eat it.
This is an ominous flower that contains poison and curse, but it can be used to strengthen one's own soul.
The treasures and treasures of heaven and earth that Xiao Zhi had come into contact with before had no side effects, but what he came into contact with this time was a little different.
Fortunately, Xiao Zhi had some understanding of this before, so after seeing this flower, his face seemed quite calm, and he did not show any too surprised expression.
After staring at the Blood Spirit Flower for a few seconds, Xiao Zhi did not reach out to take it. The Blood Spirit Flower floated up, and then was squeezed and rubbed by an invisible big hand, and was rubbed into pieces.
A dragon eye-sized thing similar to a blood pill.
It was only then that Xiao Zhi opened his mouth, sucked the blood pill into his mouth, and then swallowed it.
After swallowing this blood pill, only a second passed before a layer of blood mist appeared on Xiao Zhi's body visibly, and his face was covered with a faint black shadow.
This vision lasted for several seconds and then gradually dissipated.
Xiao Zhi returned to normal, closed his eyes for a few seconds, and then slowly opened his eyes.
"How do you feel?" A few feet away, a player asked nervously.
Xiao Zhi said calmly: "The poison and curse contained in this Blood Spirit Flower are nothing to the Nascent Soul cultivator. These poisons and curses can be forced out."
While speaking, Xiao Zhi gently raised his right index finger. From his fingertip, a mass of black-red blood seeped out, forming a small ball that floated in mid-air.
Obviously, this is the toxin and curse forced out of his body.
Xiao Zhi paused and continued: "If it is taken by a Golden Elixir monk, there will be great risks, and it may cause some irreversible damage to the body. As for the Foundation Establishment monks, that is not to mention,
If you take it you will die!"
Several players were listening carefully. This was first-hand information and was very valuable.
"Then... after you take Zhi Shen, do you have any effect?" A player asked cautiously.
Xiao Zhidao: "It's working. I can clearly feel that my soul has become a little stronger than before."
"Okay, it will be good if it works." The player couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face.
A few seconds later, Xiao Zhi reached out and opened the second jade box.
In the second jade box, what lay there was no longer a flower, but a palm-sized spider.
This is a spider as black as ink, but its body is covered with white spikes like needles. It looks extremely terrifying, and it also exudes an ominous aura.
Xiao Zhi stared at the spider, and soon, a line of text appeared:
The soul-eating spider is a rare monster produced in the Netherworld. It specializes in feeding on raw souls. It contains a strong curse and a small amount of toxins. Monks who eat it will die if they eat it. Used by high-level monks, they can strengthen their own souls to a certain extent.
This is also an ominous thing.
When Xiao Zhi faced it, his brows furrowed even more.
In all his life, he has never eaten bugs, not to mention palm-sized spiders, or even bugs the size of fingernails, because he feels dirty and disgusting.
But now, what he needs to do is to eat the soul-eating spider in front of him...
Xiao Zhi is also a decisive person. He took a deep breath and performed the [Whale Swallowing Skill]. His mouth suddenly opened to an extremely exaggerated degree, and then he opened his mouth and sucked.
The spider, which was as black as ink, was sucked into his mouth, and then he chewed it.
This scene made the liaison players' eyes widen.
Especially one of the female players secretly thought to herself, she is indeed a god, she can eat such a terrifying thing without even blinking, with this kind of perseverance...
If it were her, she wouldn't eat this stuff even if she were killed.
When Xiao Zhi chewed up the soul-eating spider and swallowed it, his face suddenly turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and his exposed hands, neck and other skin also turned black and dark until a few seconds later.
After that, the blackness receded like a tide, and Xiao Zhi's skin color gradually returned to normal.
After a few more seconds passed, Xiao Zhi opened his eyes and said: "The curse contained in this soul-eating spider is very powerful, even more powerful than the blood spirit flower just now. Yuanying and others do not recommend it.
If I take it directly like this, as for the effect, it is stronger than the Blood Spirit Flower just now..."
Xiao Zhi spoke calmly, while several players in front of him were listening carefully.
After Xiao Zhi finished speaking, he reached out and opened the third jade box.
What is contained in this jade box is a colorful mushroom, which also exudes a strong fishy smell.
'Ghost-eating fungi, a natural treasure...'
After finishing his 'eating', Xiao Zhi sat cross-legged and digested.
He asked casually: "It's been so long, and there's still no news about the divine sword that protects the country from Xuanming Kingdom?"
"Not yet. Once there is news, we will notify you as soon as possible." A liaison player said.
‘Can’t you find it? Could it be that the name is wrong and it was Jun Huai who made up nonsense?’ Xiao Zhi couldn’t help but frowned and thought to himself.
Seeing Xiao Zhi being silent, another liaison player said softly: "Zhi Shen, we have been working hard, but this matter may be a highly confidential matter of Xuanming Kingdom, and our penetration of Xuanming Kingdom is far less than that of others.
In the Chang Kingdom, with our current penetration into the Xuanming Kingdom, we are still unable to access the core secrets of the Xuanming Kingdom."
"It's okay, just try your best." Xiao Zhi said with a smile.
He asked casually: "How is the peace negotiation going now?"
A liaison player said: "The peace talks are still going on. The news we have learned is that the emperor of Xuanming Kingdom is very determined for peace talks and can be regarded as a staunch peace advocate."
Another liaison player said: "It should be said that he is now a staunch peace advocate. Before, he was actually a war advocate. The reason why the national war between Dachang Kingdom and Xuanming Kingdom broke out is also due to
His share of the credit is in it, but recently, when Xuanming Kingdom attacked Cangzhou Daocheng, they suffered setbacks one after another. His Majesty, the emperor of Xuanming Kingdom, gradually changed from a war faction to a peace faction.
, in the final analysis, this is a guy who bullies the weak and fears the strong."
Xiao Zhi couldn't help but nodded when he heard this. He actually thought so too.
He thought for a while and then said: "Then what do the All Living Beings Army think about this matter?"
Another liaison player said: "We players are naturally staunch militants. However, in our real world, there are some different voices regarding the peace negotiation incident of Xuanming Kingdom."
"What different sounds?" Xiao Zhi raised his eyebrows and said.
The liaison player said: "Some people in the real world think that we should support this peace negotiation. Once the peace negotiation is successful, the national war between Dachang Kingdom and Xuanming Kingdom will be suspended, and we can take advantage of this precious period.
Let’s use the peaceful time to concentrate on developing our strength. When we have enough strength, we can launch a national war again and destroy the Xuanming Kingdom in one fell swoop.”
When Xiao Zhi heard this, he couldn't help showing a thoughtful expression on his face.
This idea still sounds very good, at least Xiao Zhi personally thinks it is very good.
It is actually very beneficial for the players to recuperate after the war is over. After all, the player's cultivation speed is dozens of times that of the natives of the world of sentient beings!
If we can avoid being involved in the war and develop peacefully for a few years, or even more than ten years, it will probably be an easy task to destroy the Xuanming Kingdom based on the strength of the players.
'It's just that the sentient system will allow our world to develop so easily...' Xiao Zhi thought to himself.
After chatting for a while, Xiao Zhi had completely absorbed the medicinal properties of those three items.
He started practicing again.
In that fantasy land of Buddhism, Xiao Zhi showed great bravery. He defeated many people by himself, and even chased and killed the flying monsters, killing them one by one high in the sky.
Perhaps it was because the strength of his soul had increased a bit after eating those three heavenly materials and earthly treasures. At this time, Xiao Zhi's condition seemed to be exceptionally good, and he was performing beyond his level.
Even the angry face that he mainly meditates on and cultivates now has made some progress. Just now, he used this angry face to glare and roar, causing a flying Rakshasa to lose consciousness for a moment, and then he
Seizing the opportunity, the sword and pestle came out to instantly kill the flying Rakshasa!
But as time went by, after one 'war' after another, Xiao Zhi's mental state inevitably declined.
One day later, Xiao Zhi was still able to fight against more than twenty flying-level monsters with one against many.
After two days, Xiao Zhi found it a bit difficult to fight against ten flying monsters at the same time.
On the third day, his condition became even worse. Even a few flying-level monsters could drive him around the place.
Then came the fourth day. By the fourth day, Xiao Zhi's condition was extremely bad. He felt as if his head was about to burst. He was experiencing bouts of dizziness and throbbing pains. He was confused and uncomfortable.
pole.
At this point, let alone fighting, it is already very difficult to concentrate and try not to be distracted.
Obviously, Xiao Zhi was almost reaching his limit.
Although he was extremely exhausted, Xiao Zhi was in a good mood.
Last time, he lasted for three and a half days.
And this time, as of now, the time he has persisted has exceeded this number. As long as he bites the bullet, he should be able to persist for a while longer.
Obviously, he has made progress, and his progress is visible.
As long as there is progress, Xiao Zhi will be happy.
In this way, time continues to pass minute by minute.
When Xiao Zhi persisted in this state for four and a half days, he could no longer enter the Buddhist fantasyland through visualization.
It was already difficult for him to concentrate anymore. He tried more than ten times in a row, but all failed.
Obviously, at this moment, he has reached his limit, and there is no point in continuing to persist.
"That's all, let's rest. Four and a half days is already very good. After training for a while, we should be able to reach the standard line of five days." Xiao Zhi thought to himself.
Xiao Zhi once again lay on his back on the cold ground in the courtyard, closed his eyes, and was about to take a rest when he vaguely heard a voice.
This seems to be the voice of a certain liaison player.
Could it be that I am hallucinating?
With his spirit being squeezed to the limit, he now experiences auditory hallucinations from time to time.
After a few seconds passed like this, Xiao Zhi suddenly opened his eyes and sat up!
This is not an auditory hallucination! There are indeed players calling me.
Xiao Zhi stretched out his hand, rubbed his temples, and said softly: "Why are you calling me?"
His voice passed through the restriction and rang in the ears of several liaison players at the same time.
A liaison player said: "Zhi Shen, the latest news is that the emperor of Xuanming Kingdom has given the conditions for this peace negotiation."
"What conditions?" Xiao Zhi said casually while rubbing his temples to relieve the waves of dizziness in his head.
Now, he is no longer interested in this so-called peace talks.
For him now, the biggest temptation is to lie down and have a pleasant sleep. As for other things, to him, they are just clouds!
Then the liaison player said: "Emperor Xuanming has promised to return all the lost land such as Beilan Road, Shanhan Road, Yunhe Road, etc. to Dachang Kingdom. Emperor Xuanming has only one condition, and that is..."
When he said this, the liaison player became a little hesitant.
"What is that?" Xiao Zhi asked. Now he just wanted to sleep and end the conversation with this player as soon as possible.
The liaison player took a deep breath, seemed to have gathered up his courage, and said: "The condition proposed by Emperor Xuanming is that the Dachang Kingdom hand over you, the God of Control, as long as the Dachang Kingdom can hand over you.
In order to pay tribute to the spirit of his grandfather and great-grandfather in heaven, as long as Dachang State can do this, Xuanming State will immediately return these lost lands of Dachang State. Emperor Xuanming also promised that as long as he reigns for one day, Xuanming State and Dachang State will
Once there is peace, Xuanming Kingdom will never take the initiative to provoke war again."
"Okay, I understand. Let's leave it at that for now. I'm going to bed. If there's anything else, I'll talk about it after I wake up."
After forcing himself to say this, Xiao Zhi lay down again, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.
The liaison player who spoke was obviously startled.
He was a little confused. What he reported this time was a major matter related to Zhi Shen!
He thought that Zhi Shen would definitely attach great importance to this matter, but in the end, Zhi Shen just replied lightly: Okay, I understand, let's leave it like this for now, and then there will be no more.
Could it be that such an important thing is not as important as sleeping?
Just when the liaison player felt confused, a player sitting next to him said in an admiring tone: "What does it mean that Mount Tai collapses but remains unchanged? This is called Mount Tai.
He collapsed in front of him but his appearance remains unchanged! Zhuishen is indeed my life-long idol. I can't match him for his calmness and calmness!"
Several other liaison players heard this and nodded in agreement.
One of the liaison players said: "I think... this kind of thing is actually not a big deal for Zhi Shen. After all, with Zhi Shen's current strength, as long as the gods don't come out, Zhi Shen will
It is an invincible existence. No one in Xuanming Kingdom can defeat Zhi Shen, let alone those cowards in Dachang Kingdom. In this case, what do we need to worry about? "
"It makes sense." Hearing this, several other players breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
Xiao Zhi also slept very soundly this time.
It wasn't until the morning of the next day that Xiao Zhi opened his eyes and got up from the ground.
At this moment, Xiao Zhi felt refreshed and energetic to the extreme!
"Brother Li, how long have I slept this time?" Xiao Zhi asked the demon Li Kuo who was guarding him through his mind.
"A little more than half a day." Li Kuo replied.
‘It’s just over half a day, that’s okay.’ Xiao Zhi thought to himself.
He stretched out and his eyes accidentally fell on the players sitting under the courtyard wall.
Suddenly, the things that happened before going to bed emerged from his memory.
'The only condition for peace talks is to hand me over...' Xiao Zhi murmured, a sneer appearing on his face.
The emperor of Xuanming Kingdom really had a good plan...
It's a pity that no matter how loud the calculation is, it is useless.
Today, he is no longer the kind of weakling who can be manipulated at will.
‘Let the Dachang Kingdom hand me over? Looking at the current Dachang Kingdom, can anyone do this?’ Xiao Zhi sneered again in his heart.
He opened his mouth and said: "Okay, I've woken up. Is there any other intelligence information you need to tell me about the army of sentient beings?"
The players sitting under the courtyard wall were all stunned. After a few seconds, a liaison player said: "Zhi Shen, the second batch of things you need is about to arrive. In half a day at most, it should be there."
We can arrive.”
Xiao Zhi naturally knew what this player was talking about.
He nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."
At this time, another liaison player took courage and said: "Zhi Shen, no matter what happens, I will stand unswervingly on your side!"
"Me too."
"me too."
The players were all talking about it.
"Thank you." Xiao Zhi said with a smile.
After a pause, he smiled and said: "Don't worry, the senior officials of our Dachang Kingdom, as long as they are not crazy, they will not agree to Emperor Xuanming's condition and hand me over. If someone really has the brains,
If it's broken and you want to rush over to deal with me, that's better. I'm short of money right now and need a money-giving boy like this urgently."
When all the players heard this, they couldn't help laughing.
Xiao Zhi started a new round of visualization practice.
After several hours passed like this, the second batch of heavenly materials and earthly treasures that could be used to strengthen the soul were finally delivered by the army of sentient beings.
This time, the army of sentient beings sent a total of five jade boxes.
Xiao Zhi waved his hand gently, and all five jade boxes were opened.
Xiao Zhi glanced at it and saw that the items contained in the jade box were a dark brown animal bone, a thumb-thick snake with colorful patterns, and a soul-eating spider, one as big as
A jelly-like toad, and a fist-sized fruit that exudes a strong bloody smell.
Before even looking at the names of these things, Xiao Zhi could tell that they were not good things.
But he had no choice. In order to become a god as soon as possible, he still had to eat these things even if they didn't look very delicious.
Fortunately, he has mastered the magical power of [Whale Swallowing Technique], so as long as he can pass this test in his heart, the food in front of him is not difficult to eat.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Xiao Zhi, who had finished his 'eating', calmed down and sensed it. He could feel that the strength of his soul had been significantly improved compared to before!
This feeling of watching yourself become stronger little by little is still very good.
After the 'digestion' was completed, Xiao Zhi began to visualize and practice the [Dharma Appearance of the Mighty Heavenly King] again.
So, another day has passed.
Xiao Zhi was in the illusion of the Buddhist land, fighting fiercely with more than twenty flying monsters, when he vaguely heard someone calling him.
Xiao Zhi frowned and continued to fight with those flying monsters.
It was not until the end of 'this game' that Xiao Zhi, whose consciousness returned to the world of living beings, opened his eyes and said with some fatigue: "What's the matter?"
Although his voice was not loud, it sounded clearly in the ears of several liaison players.
A liaison player quickly stood up and said: "Zhi Shen, not long ago, Mr. Li Pingfeng returned."
"Li Pingfeng is back?" Xiao Zhi couldn't help but feel happy when he heard this!
Li Pingfeng finally came back.
He disappeared for so long, and now he's finally back.
I don't know what he went through during this period of time.
