Only then did the man say, "I'll give you something."
After saying that, the other party threw a Nakong Seal.
Zhao Sheng reached out to take it, his hand sank, and his spiritual consciousness penetrated it. He only felt a strange wave coming. A golden statue of a hedgehog that was more than eight feet long came into his mind. The dense aura of incense lingering on the statue made him feel lustful.
Condensed into substance.
more importantly……
"What do you want to exchange for, fellow Taoist? If you don't mind, I would like to ask, where did you get this thing from?" Zhao Sheng asked the other party with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.
Hearing this, the man suddenly said: "You asked me a question, and I also want to ask you a question. Is that fair?"
"The voice is quite nice, female nun? She must be... not very old, right?"
Zhao Sheng muttered secretly, but said: "That's fair. What do you want to ask, fellow Taoist?"
The man hesitated for a moment, and then asked in a deep voice: "I don't ask you about your origins, nor your surname. I just want to ask one question, why do you have the marks left by the saintly daughter of our sect on your body?
"
Um?!
Zhao Sheng frowned when he heard this, and a woman in white with an aloof temperament, as pure as a white lotus, instantly appeared in his mind.
"You were so careful, but you still fell into the trap of the other party. As expected, none of the prisoners in the seventeenth floor of the prison are simple." He sighed inwardly.
Through the black mist, the other party could not see his expression, but seemed to sense the fluctuations in his heart.
The woman immediately asked: "You have seen the saint of our sect recently, right? Where is she imprisoned at this time?"
Zhao Sheng thought for a moment, nodded and admitted, "Yes! Although I don't know which sect you are from, I have probably seen the saint you mentioned."
"Where is she now? As long as my fellow Taoist tells the truth, I, the Tianxin Sect, will definitely reward her generously?"
"You are actually a member of Tianxin Sect. Is your sect resurrected again?" Zhao Sheng felt very surprised.
The Tianxin Sect was once a serious threat to the Tiandao Sect. It was extremely powerful and had been wiped out many times over the past ten thousand years. However, it was always able to rebuild the mountain sect afterwards. Its vitality was even more terrifying than Xiaoqiang's.
It is said that Tianxin Sect has a close relationship with Earth Mother Sect, so it was rebuilt many times.
The woman did not respond directly to Zhao Sheng's question, but persisted in asking about the whereabouts of the saint.
Of course, Zhao Sheng could not tell the truth easily, so he said: "I have already answered your Taoist friend's question, but you haven't answered my question yet. Where did this thousand-year-old hedgehog statue come from?"
Seeing this, the woman answered very simply: "This thing came by chance. It came from a remote small county under Songlan Mansion. There are many local believers. Unfortunately, it provoked our sect for no reason. Later, the elders of our sect destroyed the temple and the statue.
It also fell into my hands."
Zhao Sheng nodded slightly, "What treasures do you want to exchange for? Skills? Spiritual elixirs? Spiritual weapons or others?"
The woman took a step forward, waved her hand, as if she wanted to clear away the dark fog in front of her eyes, and said firmly: "These are no longer important. I just want to know the whereabouts of the saint of our sect. As long as my fellow Taoist tells the truth, this
The Hedgehog Statue is yours."
Zhao Sheng's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice: "Tell me everything you know about this five-pronged hedgehog god."
"OK!"
The woman agreed immediately, took out a jade pupil slip and put it between her eyebrows, inputting all the relevant information in one go.
After a while, the woman took off the jade slip and gently threw it over.
After Zhao Sheng reached out to catch the jade slip, he said calmly: "The saint of your sect is currently imprisoned on the seventeenth floor of the prison, and she will not die for the time being."
When the woman heard the news, she was surprised and happy, and hurriedly asked: "My friend, when did you see the saint? Can you think of a way to meet her again?"
"Well, the information on the meeting time is one price, and the delivery of the letter is another price. To be honest, fellow Taoist, I can be considered a mediator."
The woman was overjoyed when she heard this: "The price is easy to negotiate, and I guarantee that fellow Taoists will be satisfied. If you have a way to rescue the saint, the reward from our sect will definitely exceed the imagination of fellow Taoists."
"Let's put this matter aside for now. Do you still want the previous information?"
"If you want it, why don't you want it? How about three hundred spirit stones? If you can send a message to the saint, the price can be increased tenfold to three thousand spirit stones!"
There is no reason not to make a deal that comes to you on your own initiative.
Zhao Sheng immediately raised the price: "I have no shortage of spiritual stones. If you can give me another five-passage statue that has withstood thousands of years of incense, or four kinds of spiritual beasts such as snakes, hedgehogs, bats, and toads, I will agree. And the rescue will be done."
It doesn't necessarily have to be negotiable.
Remember, they are spiritual beasts that can communicate with people. Don’t fool ordinary monsters.”
After hearing this, the woman from the Tianxin Sect agreed without hesitation. "At most half a month, my sect will definitely deliver the things that fellow Taoist asks for. I don't know where to contact fellow Taoist."
Zhao Sheng smiled and said: "The ghost market is a good place, just stay here. In half a month, the goods will arrive and everything will be done!"
"Just follow what fellow Taoist said. It's settled in one word!"
…
After a while, Zhao Sheng returned to the Bone Chair Forest alone, and the Tianxin Sect woman had already left the ghost market.
As soon as everyone in the ghost city saw the return of the real owner, many people immediately sent word.
Zhao Sheng multitasks, "communicates" cordially with everyone, and often seals a deal in just a few words.
When it comes to the five-channel spiritual beasts and five-channel statues, he will accept all comers. The larger the final number, the greater the choice.
About an hour later, everyone had finished trading.
At this time, someone suddenly lit up a stick of incense and said, "The transaction is over. Now you can trade information as you like."
As soon as he finished speaking, two people in Tongtong's figure on the scene whispered to each other for a moment. One of them stood up and asked: "I need to know whether Gu Qi, the first elder of the Gu family, has passed away? As long as the information is true, I can give it to you.
Exchange it with ten medium-grade spiritual stones.
This person's question seemed difficult, and no one in the room spoke.
After a while, a voice suddenly sounded:
"I don't know if Chief Priest Gu is dead, but I know that the Gu Ancestral Temple is going to undergo major construction work recently."
"Oh, when will the groundbreaking be started? How about five hundred spirit stones?"
"Seven hundred!"
"Okay, let me take a step to talk."
The two of them walked into the fog one after another, and the intelligence transaction continued.
Zhao Sheng watched others speak out one after another, and he also casually threw out a few important "informations", all of which were important secrets related to the major families in Chu State City.
As soon as this information was released, it immediately aroused the interest of most people.
This also allowed him to successfully complete several transactions, which made him initially famous and opened up an "emerging market."
Today, every monk who can come to the real ghost market has a level of strength no lower than that of Foundation Establishment, because those below Foundation Establishment are not qualified to stand here.
Zhao Sheng even vaguely sensed that there were one or two golden elixir master priests hidden among these people.
After the stick of incense burned out, the black mist suddenly thickened, and Zhao Sheng's eyesight went dark.
After the world was spinning, he was already leaning on the trunk of a red willow tree, and in front of him was a noisy and lively street market.
Zhao Sheng's figure flashed and disappeared instantly.
Half a month passed in a flash.
Zhao Sheng went to the ghost market again and successfully connected with the people of Tianxin Sect in the black fog world.
This transaction was successfully completed without any glitches. Zhao Sheng accepted the Maoyue White Snake, the Blood-Eyed Blue Bat, the Black-armored Hedgehog, and the Mysterious Clam in one go. Their grades were all no lower than the second level.
.
However, the Tianxin Sect only asked him to bring a messenger talisman to the saint.
…
The seventeenth floor of the divine prison,
The cell was dark, sinister and icy, freezing and deathly silent.
On this day, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in the corner of the cell.
"You came!"
A burst of lightning instantly illuminated the dim environment. The woman in white was chained to the cross. She seemed to ignore the severe pain of the thunder and suddenly looked up into the dark corner.
Her messy long hair fell down on both sides, revealing a pale and thin face and a pair of clear water eyes.
"Well, I'm here. But you seemed to have lied to me before."
As he spoke, Zhao Sheng, who was covered in black robes, walked out of the darkness and stood a foot away from the woman in white.
Xin Wuyan's eyes lit up, and he said with a hint of joy: "You...you have come into contact with people from my sect."
"I have to say that the Tianxin Sect's secret technique is really powerful. It can actually hide from my spiritual consciousness and five senses. That's right, I not only met the Tianxin Sect members, but also brought something over. Here is the thing, you can see for yourself
!”
After saying that, Zhao Sheng had a palm-sized jade-white paper talisman in his hand. With a wave of his hand, the jade talisman shot out and accurately landed on the forehead of the woman in white.
The next second, the paper talisman burned out of thin air and instantly turned into a white light that disappeared into the brow of the woman in white.
A smile quickly appeared on Xin Wuyan's face, and his pale face suddenly turned bright red.
"Wu Yan would like to thank fellow Taoist fellows for their help. If I can get out alive in the future, I will repay you for the great favor of my life."
"Well, your identity should not have been really leaked. Otherwise, with the style of the prison, you wouldn't be alive today. I don't want to know what important secrets you carry, but after this matter is settled... there is a chance for us to meet.
I'm afraid there won't be much left. If you have anything to say to Tianxin Sect, just say it! I also did a good deed today and helped you take him out for a while."
However, what surprised Zhao Sheng was that the woman in white actually rejected his kindness.
"No need! The messenger talisman just sent by fellow Taoist is the greatest joy to me. I have nothing to say."
"Okay! It saves me a lot of trouble. Before I leave, I would like to ask one more question, do you still want to make a deal?"
"Can you get me out?"
"It's the same thing, no!" Zhao Sheng said, half truthfully and half falsely.
In fact, he can do it, but he doesn't want to mess up his plan to rescue a person.
"Save me out. Whether it's a magic book, a magical elixir, or a fairy and beauty, you can take your pick! Our sect has the secret technique to overcome tribulations, which can help you advance to the realm of golden elixir." Xin Wuyan shouted.
"Haha! Sorry, I'm not interested."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Sheng's figure turned into nothingness and disappeared out of thin air from Xin Wuyan.
When Xin Wuyan saw this scene, his heart went up and down, and he thought in extreme surprise: "Who is this person? What kind of magical powers and secrets does this person have? He actually regards all restrictions as nothing, and can come and go freely in the heavily guarded prison. If this is the case
People can join our sect..."
…
"What, say it again?" Prison Lieutenant Ren Zhong looked at the person in front of him in surprise and asked urgently.
Ahem!
Zhao Sheng coughed and said loudly, "Sir, I have reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. I hope you will be merciful and give me a chance to build a foundation."
After that, he released a part of his breath slightly, and his whole body's spiritual power fluctuated, which was basically in line with the performance after completing the Qi refining process.
After careful sensing, Ren Zhong laughed loudly and said, "It's true! Sanbao, you must have been in the Divine Prison for more than thirty years. After all, it is the superior qualifications of dual spiritual roots that can be used in such a dangerous environment.
I successfully broke through to the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. As expected of you!
By the way, have you accumulated enough achievements?"
"Thanks to my lord, I just saved enough two years ago, and I should be able to redeem it for a Blood Spirit Foundation Building Pill."
At this time, Zhao Sheng looked like an old man with a stooped figure and gray hair. It seemed that his long career as a prison guard had long ago destroyed his physical body, but he was still very energetic.
"Well, even if it's a happy event, I won't stop you. If you can be promoted to Foundation Establishment, it will give the people below some hope. After all, the prison guards who have come in over the years are more useless than the others. They are dead.
There are too many people, and I will eventually lose my face."
"I will give you a warrant right away. You can go to the warehouse to exchange for a foundation-building pill. In addition, you will be granted a second-class cave, hoping to increase the chance of success in foundation-building by two points."
"Thank you, sir!"
After coming out of the room, Zhao Sheng suddenly straightened his back and his face remained calm, as if the groveling figure just now was just an illusion.
Next, he spent seven or eight days, opening up many joints, and finally successfully redeemed a foundation-building pill, and obtained the right to use a second-class cave for half a year.
No need to elaborate on trivial matters!
Half a month later, Zhao Sheng walked into a training cave in the Ascetic Temple in the southwest of the temple city with the expectations of many prison guards.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Outsiders naturally thought that he was trying to build a foundation, but they did not know that he was just using this guise to do a major event that had been planned for a long time.
…
Chu State City, 200 feet underground of Zhao Mansion.
The underground cave that was originally lined with bookshelves now has a large open space in the middle.
The ground of the open space is covered with huge jade slabs, which are engraved with densely packed runes and strange lines.
There are thirty-six white jade spiritual pillars standing around, and the pillars are also covered with runes, and the spiritual light is shining.
In the center surrounded by the spiritual pillars, a circular altar stands tall, with a golden hedgehog statue standing in the middle. The altar blooms with clear brilliance, and a golden light appears in the sky. It is the very strong power of incense that almost appears.
Vision.
At this time, Zhao Sheng, wearing the robe of the sun, moon and stars, stood behind a bill with a solemn expression.
There are many artifacts such as knives, pens, seals, clocks, towers, etc. on the bill, all of which are shining with light and extraordinary charm.
Bang bang bang!
Suddenly, Zhao Sheng's whole body was surrounded by Dharma light. He walked with ancient and heavy steps, and made countless curse seals with his hands. He muttered words in his mouth: "Nine heavens and ten earths, the gods listen to the call! ???????... Wutong
The ghost and god, the hedgehog god Kakoyu...come quickly to answer the call!"
After reciting the order to invite the gods, Zhao Sheng picked up a crystal knife with his right hand and summoned a copper bell with his left hand.
While ringing the bell and emitting bursts of clear sound, he quickly walked out of the bill and came under the statue of the god.
boom!
Zhao Sheng thought, and a huge black shadow fell under the statue. It was a huge hedgehog with black thorns as thick as a forest and as big as an elephant.
The crystal knife suddenly turned into a ray of crystal light and chopped off the spirit hedgehog's head. Blood spurted out instantly, like a flood, splashing a large area of the altar.
Squeak!
The hedgehog was actually not dead. His head was screaming and a faint demon soul was seen rising from his head.
Zhao Sheng's energy flourished, his spiritual consciousness burst out, and spiritual imprints suddenly penetrated into the body of the demon soul, and at the same time, they were connected with the Hedgehog Statue.
The next second, the hedgehog demon soul was absorbed into the body by the statue, and the statue suddenly emitted a golden light.
A gust of fragrant wind blew up out of thin air in the cave, and wisps of golden light suddenly condensed. A ball of ethereal divine light appeared from nothingness, and instantly disappeared into the body of the statue.
