Standing over the rift valley, the golden door engraved with ancient spells slowly opened. At the same time, a cold and majestic voice resounded throughout the world.
"To enter the seventh heaven gate, you need nine hundred and ninety-nine nine-day orders!"
When they first heard this voice, everyone was stunned.
Nine hundred and ninety-nine yuan for nine days?
What a joke!
You must know that the sixth-level Tianmen only requires ninety-nine nine-day orders. According to everyone's expectations, the seventh-level heavenly gate is a hurdle, and at most it only requires three, five hundred and nine-day orders.
No one expected that this number was nearly a thousand!
What’s even more outrageous is that, unlike other heavens where you are reminded in advance, in this sixth heaven, you are not told exactly how many Nine Heavens Orders are needed to get started until the heavenly gate opens.
For a while, many people were stunned and quickly began to count the nine-day orders in their hands.
"I only have two hundred and thirty yuan, what can I do?"
"I'm not much better, I'm only in my early three hundred years..."
"I'm better than you all. I'm close to six hundred at least, but where can I find the remaining four hundred?"
"You should be satisfied. I have been running for my life since I entered the Sixth Heaven. I have no time to collect the Nine Heavens Token. Now I only have one hundred and three yuan!"
After counting the number of Nine Heaven Tokens in their hands, most people wailed.
The most important thing is that after the opening of the Seven Heavenly Gates, all eight tunnels in the rift valley were closed. Although it blocked the influx of the three-color giants, it also sealed them in the canyon.
The canyon is surrounded by mountain walls hundreds of meters high. Not only are they extremely smooth and have no place to rely on, but more importantly, there are formation restrictions on them. Unless they directly control the air like the mountains and seas, it is impossible for them to leave this rift valley. But everyone immediately thought of something, and with a "swish" sound, they cast their eyes on the remaining three-color giant in the rift valley.
For a while, there were constant noises in the air. The three-color giant that everyone originally avoided had turned into a fragrant man at this moment. Many people even started disputes because of the issue of ownership.
"It turns out that although the previous wave of three-color giants was a test, it was also an opportunity to finally make up for the Nine Heavens Order..."
Many people had enlightenment at this time, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed for a while.
This is especially true for those strong men of mountains and seas who do not have enough Nine Heavenly Tokens in their hands. If other warriors can only passively defend, they have the opportunity to kill more three-color giants.
It's a pity that it's too late to know now.
After the corridor was closed, there were only dozens of three-color giants still wandering in the rift valley. Even if they were all killed, they would only be able to release eight or nine hundred and nine hundred and nine heavenly orders. What's more, at this moment, there are people waiting to enter the seventh heaven gate in the rift valley.
The number of warriors has exceeded two hundred.
Even if the strong men from the mountains and seas have a greater advantage in the competition, don’t forget that there are also many strong men from the mountains and seas present.
In the Eighth Level Ranking alone, there are more than twenty people here.
After just a few minutes of chaos and fighting, no three-color giant could be seen in the entire rift valley, and all remaining Nine Heavens Orders on the ground were also swept away.
In fact, it is not completely empty.
In the place where the corridor extends from the south, in a vertical line, large areas of the Nine Heavens Order are scattered on the ground, exuding an eye-catching brilliance.
That was the Nine Heavens Order exploded by hundreds of three-color giants, and the number was more than thousands.
But... all the warriors present seemed to be blind. They did not look sideways at this land and did not even move closer, as if they were afraid of causing some misunderstanding.
It was not until Zhao Keyi and others from the Jiangzhong Army came down from the high platform to start cleaning up that many people secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, I no longer have to endure the torture of this temptation.
Qu Bai and Shen Qian stood side by side on the stone pillar watching all this, both of them were speechless for a moment.
"Shen Qian, I..."
After a long silence, Qu Bai finally spoke.
"Senior, you don't have to explain anything to me."
Shen Qian seemed to have guessed what he wanted to say, and interrupted directly: "I may not fully understand, but I know that you must have your own difficulties."
Before Shen Qian appeared, Qu Bai could only watch Ning Zhaoyi abuse Ding Yi and others.
If Shen Qian really had no complaints at all, that was not entirely true. After all, in his opinion, Qu Bai was fully capable of stopping Ning Zhaoyi and had the confidence to overturn the table.
Among the ten people on the Nine Heavens Ranking, apart from Lin Sanmo, if there is anyone else whom Shen Qian can't quite see through, it's probably Qu Bai.
The two have known each other for more than half a year, but Shen Qian has never seen Qu Bai use his full strength.
Just thinking about it from another perspective, when Jiang Zhong Junwu was first established, although he was the top martial artist in the country at that time, he had not yet grown up in the eyes of the top military martial artists. So who should support Jiang Zhong Junwu's top combat power?
Neither Feng Manlin nor Niu Ziguo carry enough weight in Shen Qian's eyes.
This is Jiangzhong Military Force!
This was once the top martial arts college in the country.
As an established card character, how could Qu Bai be weak?
"I actually envy you."
Qu Bai laughed at himself, his eyes becoming a little distant, "I was born as an orphan. A veteran of the military warriors adopted me from an orphanage. I grew up in the army. When I first showed my outstanding talent, I was adopted by the military warriors.
Picked up in a special sequence."
"Most of my life so far has been spent in the camp."
"I know that I am a genius, and probably the best one... Hey, Shen Qian, do you know that when I broke through the mountains and seas, I was still three months away from turning seventeen..."
"What?"
Shen Qian was shocked.
If he hadn't known that Qu Bai couldn't lie, his first thought would have been that it was impossible.
What is the concept of Shanhai at the age of sixteen?
Even Shen Qian, a person who has always been outrageous, found it a bit outrageous.
Wang Shuo was famous all over the country at that time, but he was only a talented warrior at the age of sixteen.
Even in the general perception of the outside world, geniuses like Shen Qian and Wang Shuo who broke through mountains and seas in their freshman year are already somewhat ahead of their predecessors.
"For some reasons that I'm not sure about, the military warriors blocked the news internally. In the following years, I kept wandering behind various 'doors' until Jiangzhong's military military was rebuilt and I came here."
Qu Bai was stunned for a while, and then whispered: "Don't think how shocking it is to break through mountains and seas at the age of sixteen. Before Shen, Marquis Wu Ding told me personally that I... am not the fastest one."
Shen Qian narrowed his eyes. Wu Dinghou had been in charge of the military for more than a hundred years, so he had a lot of experience and vision.
Now think about it, although breaking through the mountains and seas at the age of sixteen completely goes against the innate limitations of human warriors, it was originally impossible for Ning Zhaoyi to become a warrior at the age of seven. It seems that someone can break through the mountains and seas at a younger age.
It’s not something unbelievable.
"There are so many geniuses and monsters in the world. We people can only represent the generation of the past five years. Above us, there are countless terrible people!"
Qu Bai smiled.
"I estimate that the age of twenty-four is probably the natural limit of Jiutian Battlefield. You must know that in today's era, the true definition of young warriors or the younger generation often refers to warriors under the age of fifty."
Shen Qian nodded slightly, having no objection to this point.
Warriors of mountains and seas can easily live for hundreds of years, and the lifespan of princes is even more of a mystery. If what the third senior brother said about King Zhou Yi is true, it is not much different from immortality.
Looking at it this way, fifty years may sound like a long time at first, but in a long martial arts career, it can only be regarded as immature.
"As far as you know, among the younger generation under the age of fifty, are there any who have become princes?"
After talking to this point, Shen Qian couldn't help but feel moved in his heart and asked curiously.
"Yes!" Qu Bai nodded without hesitation, "And there is more than one. The best among them is said to be only one step away from King Wu!"
When Qu Bai said this, Shen Qian suddenly remembered that Minister Magongzuo had had a deep conversation with him that day when he passed all the practical tests of the martial arts college entrance examination and finally broke his clothes and mirror.<
/p>
At that time, he also mentioned a person who was the most talented warrior he had ever seen in his life besides Shen Qian.
At the age of thirty, he was granted the title of Uncle, and was only one step away from King Wu.
Ever since the Nine Kings of the First Generation, I don’t know whether it’s due to the limitations of the times or something else, but the human race has had no warriors who can be crowned kings for a long, long time.
There are different opinions on the reasons.
In any case, once that person really takes that step, he is likely to stand directly at the top of the human race.
In fact, according to Shen Qian's knowledge, there is actually another person who has the hope of reaching the position of King Wu, and that is his senior brother Jiang Huan.
This is not only some recognition from the outside world, but also the evaluation of teachers.
Even though Jiang Huan seems to be close to two hundred years old, he is still just a mountain and sea, but his "Tao" is extremely terrifying, and it is said that he is among the top ten beings in the Tao of Heaven.
Being able to follow such a "path" for hundreds of years is an extremely remarkable thing in itself.
The teacher himself said that once the senior brother breaks into the princes, he will directly become the strongest among the princes. This is the advantage brought by the background.
When Shen Qian's thoughts were drifting away, Qu Bai continued to say in a low voice: "I am a soldier first, and a so-called martial arts genius second. My status determines that I cannot act on impulse at any time, even if it is only 100%.
I can't take risks when I'm not sure...so I envy you."
Shen Qian came back to his senses, glanced at Qu Bai's resolute profile, and then sighed.
A supreme genius who stepped into the mountains and seas at the age of sixteen and could even shock the whole country, is willing to hide everything and only shine among the warriors, on those boring and even unknown battlefields outside the territory...<
/p>
Shen Qian didn't know what Qu Bai had experienced in these years and what kind of mental journey he had, so he could only silently pat the other party's shoulder.
There are many paths in this world, and everyone's choice is different. He cannot criticize the other person's path, which means it is wrong.
Perhaps it is better to watch Jiang Zhongjunwu’s classmates suffer physical pain than to let them die under your nose due to an unexpected mistake.
Judging from the trump card that Ning Zhaoyi showed later, the opponent is fully capable of this.
Qu Bai glanced at Shen Qian, who was thoughtful, and his mood was complicated for a moment.
In fact, there was one more thing he didn't tell Shen Qian.
Before coming, whether it was from Uncle Pingyang or other sources, he could even sacrifice himself to achieve Shen Qian's success when necessary.
Perhaps Shen Qian hasn't realized yet that he is the one truly chosen by the military warriors.
"But Shen Qian..."
Qu Bai suddenly stared at Shen Qian, as if there was a ball of fire burning in his eyes, "If the time is right and our agreement still stands, just treat it as... I also want to be willful once."
"Okay."
Shen Qian responded simply.
He and Qu Bai were supposed to have a fight long ago, but due to various reasons, it never happened.
Perhaps seeing Shen Qian's action just now, the long-suppressed fighting spirit in Qu Bai's body began to surge again.
At this time, Zhao Keyi and others turned back, each holding a large number of Nine Heavenly Orders, and then placed them on the high platform.
"Shen Qian, I have collected them all for you. I probably counted them and it should be close to three thousand."
Zhao Keyi shouted from below.
Shen Qian moved and came to the high platform.
He first took out more than 500 Nine Heavenly Tokens, and then placed them in front of Ding Yi, who was concentrating on absorbing the spiritual energy fountain.
He had asked once just now and learned that Ding Yi had about four hundred Nine Heaven Orders, so Shen Qian was naturally obliged to do so.
When Ding heard the noise, he opened his eyes slightly and saw that it was Shen Qian. Although there was no smile on his face, there was a touch of tenderness rippling deep in his eyes.
"This spiritual energy fountain probably won't last long. You should seize the time to practice some more."
After letting Ding Yi continue to practice, Shen Qian descended to the high platform and looked at Zhao Keyi and others.
"How many Nine-Day Orders are you all missing?"
After Shen Qian finished asking, he saw that everyone in Jiangzhong's army just looked at each other and said nothing. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't worry about whether you have enough points. I have more here."
Everyone was silent for a while and looked at each other. Finally, Zhao Keyi took a step forward and said, "Shen Qian, no need. In fact, we just discussed it and we all want to leave the Nine Heavens Order to you."
"You...want to quit?"
Shen Qian heard the hidden meaning of everyone's words and couldn't help but be surprised.
In the nine-day battlefield, although the degree of difficulty and danger in each heaven is gradually increasing, the opportunities and benefits are also increasing.
At this moment, there is an opportunity to enter the seventh heaven. In theory, no one should give up.
"Actually, if it weren't for Senior Qu Bai, with our strength, we wouldn't even be able to enter the sixth heaven... We've already come this far, what else can we ask for?"
Zhao Ke smiled casually and spoke out everyone's thoughts, "The sixth level is already so dangerous. If we go up higher, we will only be a drag on you and Senior Qu Bai. Everyone will suffer by then, so why bother?" p>
"Yes, we will linger in this sixth heaven for a while, and when the spiritual energy fountain dries up or the game is over, we will go out. The richness of the spiritual energy in this sixth heaven is already huge for us.
It’s a benefit.”
Another senior sister immediately echoed.
When Shen Qian saw that everyone was sincere, he gave up after a second thought.
Although he has sufficient self-confidence, he can also vaguely feel that the Jiutian battlefield has been different since unknown times, and no one knows what he will encounter next.
"You don't need to give me the Nine Heavens Order. I really have a lot here and I don't need any more help from you." Shen Qian said with a smile.
"Shen Qian, can we...can we exchange these Nine Heavens Orders with you?"
Just when Shen Qian was saying goodbye to Zhao Keyi and others, a hesitant voice suddenly sounded not far away.
Shen Qian turned his head in surprise and saw many eyes looking at him eagerly.
