A new day has arrived. Qi Kongming, who was still worried about the task last night, has now returned to his usual calmness. Anyway, he can just try his best to complete the task. There is no need to pay too much attention to it, which will hinder his cultivation. It is better to improve his strength and prepare for the battle.
The war palace was established overnight within the Xuanwu Sect, but the four lists have not yet been released. Although the Tianji Sect is one of the seventy-two sects, it is not possible to sum up the strength of the human demon masters in the entire continent overnight.
Once completed, it will take some time before it can be released on the list. This also gives people a buffer, which is also good.
It is early in the morning, the sun has just risen, and Qi Kongming is preparing to start practicing martial arts in the yard.
"Dong dong dong." Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Qi Kongming immediately went to open the door. When he opened the door, he saw his beautiful senior sister.
"Sister, what's the matter?" Qi Kongming lowered his head, scratched his head, and asked in a low voice.
"You know about the Fourth Ranking, right?" Ao Tianshuang said.
"I know, what's wrong?" Qi Kongming replied.
"Then do you know the rules?" Ao Tianshuang asked.
"Rules? Aren't they the same as our competition?" Qi Kongming answered naturally.
"It's different. This ranking battle is not our usual competition. In this ranking battle, external forces can be used." Ao Tianshuang seemed to have known Qi Kongming would answer this way early on, and retorted.
"Isn't it possible to use talismans, pills and other foreign objects?" Qi Kongming said.
"Yes, Master told me that these external objects are also part of your strength and will also be taken into account." Ao Tianshuang said, walking into the courtyard and sitting on a chair.
"Then there are a lot of variables in this ranking battle." Qi Kongming closed the door and said.
"That's right, so Master reminded me to prepare more talismans and elixirs in case of emergencies." Ao Tianshuang said.
"Master, why didn't you tell me?" Qi Kongming said, mentally complaining about his master for not telling such important news.
"Really? I guess you only have three qian cultivation, and you don't have any elixirs or talismans to use, right?" Ao Tianshuang explained seriously.
"Why are there no elixirs and talismans available for low cultivation? There are so many kinds of elixirs and talismans that can be used. Senior sister, what's your reason?" Qi Kongming began to doubt Ao Tianshuang, her words were a bit forced.
"Okay, actually I didn't get this news from Master." Ao Tianshuang looked at Qi Kongming's suspicious eyes and said.
"No! Then you believe it?" Qi Kongming also found a chair to sit down and said.
"Believe it, don't worry, the news is reliable. I think master wants us to use our true strength to compete in the rankings." Ao Tianshuang said.
"Then follow the master's wishes, otherwise if he finds out that we use external force, he will suffer a lot." Qi Kongming said.
"You are a bit too rigid. Of course we rely on our own strength to make the rankings. What we are guarding against is the opponent's use of external force. Then we will be frustrated when we lose. We want to neutralize the opponent's external force. This is
It’s a true showdown of strength, don’t you think so? So I want to go to Xuanwu City to visit and buy some things.” Ao Tianshuang said.
"You are right to say that, but..." Qi Kongming reluctantly accepted Ao Tianshuang's statement, but he didn't really want to use external force.
"Nothing, but I see that you have quite a bit of free time, so come with me to Xuanwu City." Ao Tianshuang said domineeringly.
"Oh." Qi Kongming definitely accepted it and couldn't refuse.
Ever since, Qi Kongming followed Ao Tianshuang towards Xuanwu City at the foot of the mountain. Xuanwu Sect was built on the mountains, and Xuanwu City was built at the foot of the mountain. It was a prosperous city built by the various generations of Xuanwu Sect leaders. Inside
It brings together various forces and various resources.
After walking through the mountain gate and entering the city gate, what you see is a sea of people. This is rarely seen in Xuanwu Sect. Qi Kongming comes from a small place. There is no such scale and prosperity as Xuanwu City. In addition, Qi Kongming came to
The Xuanwu Sect has almost never been out, so Xuanwu City is a new thing for Qi Kongming. He was quickly attracted by the prosperity of the city, and he no longer had any reluctance in his heart.
In the city, there are all kinds of shops, all kinds of shouts, all kinds of people, and some other races, making Qi Kongming dizzy. Now Qi Kongming looks like a farmer who has just entered the city.
.
"Hey, do you know it's embarrassing for you to look like this?" Ao Tianshuang couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but remind Qi Kongming.
"My fault, my fault." Qi Kongming immediately put away his shocked look and admitted his mistake.
"Let's go to Fu Pavilion first." Ao Tianshuang said after seeing the look on his face.
"Fu Pavilion?" Qi Kongming didn't know what Fu Pavilion was at all.
"It was set up by Fu Zong to sell talisman paper. If you don't know Fu Pavilion, Fu Zong always knows." Ao Tianshuang explained patiently.
"Oh, I know about the Fu Sect. It is one of the seventy-two sects. It is the sect with the deepest and strongest research on talismans." Qi Kongming recalled that although he had not read any books introducing things, these seventy-two sects
Still know.
"By the way, when you have time, go to Zangwu Pavilion and read books about major events in the mainland, or common sense. Don't just practice cultivation all the time. These books are sometimes very useful. Don't become a fool who only knows how to practice." Ao
Tianshuang warned.
"I understand, senior sister." Qi Kongming replied obediently.
"We're here." Ao Tianshuang said. The two of them walked and chatted before arriving in front of the Fu Pavilion. The Fu Pavilion gave Qi Kongming the feeling of being very simple, not as grand as the surrounding buildings, but very simple.
"You have to know that some things can't just be taken at face value. You see, this Talisman Pavilion is simple and unpretentious, but it contains the best talisman paper in the continent. So, you have to look more and walk more, do you understand?"
Ao Tianshuang is fulfilling the duties of a senior sister, teaching Qi Kongming. Now Qi Kongming is actually quite blank, and he still doesn't know many things.
"Understood, senior sister." The two of them said as they walked into the Fu Pavilion. There was only a front desk and a staircase inside the Fu Pavilion. There were no furnishings. There was an old man dozing off at the front desk.
"Sister, will he still have business like this?" Qi Kongming looked at the old man like this and asked Ao Tianshuang.
"Little baby, you'll know when you go up there." Suddenly, an old voice sounded in his mind. Qi Kongming was startled and looked around in confusion, but there was nothing around him. There was only that old man, and it couldn't be that old man.
Bar.
Ao Tianshuang did not explain, but went straight upstairs. Qi Kongming quickly followed. The moment he went upstairs, the whole world changed. There were many stands, many talisman papers, and many
There are so many people choosing among them that at a glance, you can’t even see the boundaries.
"This is a small world, so don't be so surprised. At the level of Fu Zong, there is no need for publicity, and there will naturally be business." Ao Tianshuang explained in due course.
"Oh." Qi Kongming replied blankly, it turned out that there was a world within it.
"Let's go and take a look." Ao Tianshuang took Qi Kongming's hand and went to choose the talisman paper.
Qi Kongming looked at his hand being pulled by Ao Tianshuang, feeling a little confused in his heart.
Looking at the various talisman papers passing by in front of his eyes, Qi Kongming felt that it was really eye-opening to know the functions of each talisman paper. It turns out that talisman papers have so many functions, such as invisibility talisman, violent spirit talisman, and clone talisman.
Various styles.
However, it was Ao Tianshuang who was always choosing the talisman. He did not choose because he had no money. (The currency of Jiuzhou Continent is magic crystal. A kind of crystal will be formed after the death of monsters. Magic crystal can not only be used as currency.
, and can be used to assist the practice of the demon master, and the magic crystal is divided into four levels: heaven, earth, black and yellow.)
After visiting the Fu Pavilion, Ao Tianshuang took Qi Kongming into the Instrument Pavilion and selected magical weapons. There were all kinds of magical weapons, which opened Qi Kongming's eyes and added many things to Qi Kongming's blank world.
He secretly made up his mind to supplement his knowledge in this area. (Qi Pavilion, one of the seventy-two sects established by Qi Sect.)
After walking around the shops one by one, Qi Kongming followed Ao Tianshuang and saw a lot of things. Soon the sky became dark. He didn't expect that it would take so much time to buy something. Xuanwu City became even more noisy at night.
Qi Kongming felt dazzled by all kinds of snacks, various flower buildings, many inns, and many acrobatic troupes. Qi Kongming accompanied Ao Tianshuang to eat snacks, watch acrobatics, and even go shopping in the flowers.
Qi Kongming kept blushing while visiting the flower building. After all, it was his first time and he was only fifteen years old. During this process, Ao Tianshuang kept laughing at Qi Kongming, and Qi Kongming also laughed stupidly along with Ao Tianshuang.
Seeing Ao Tianshuang smiling, Qi Kongming was also very happy for some reason.
Suddenly, fireworks exploded over Xuanwu City, like colorful flowers. Ao Tianshuang took Qi Kongming and stood on the tower pointing at the fireworks in the sky, smiling, happy and cheering, Qi Kongming did the same.
On the way back to Xuanwu Sect, Ao Tianshuang kept talking, some talking about the beauty of the fireworks, and some talking about Qi Kongming's embarrassment. Qi Kongming also laughed beside him. It was the first time that Qi Kongming was so happy since he went to Xuanwu Sect.
.
At this moment, Qi Kongming understood that he lived in this world not only for revenge, but also for this colorful world waiting for him to explore.
The day passed happily. On this day, Qi Kongming did not practice, but played with Ao Tianshuang all day long. He was happy all day long. It turns out that the world is so beautiful.
This night, for the first time, Qi Kongming was not awakened by nightmares, and for the first time, he did not have nightmares. (Originally, Qi Kongming would inevitably have nightmares when sleeping, all from that night. In fact, Qi Kongming's heart was closed. Since that night,
