After leaving the trading place, Zhou Yuan led Zuoqiu Qingyu to a secluded place.
"You fell in love with the ancient wooden bracelet in that guy's hand at first sight, right?" Zuoqiu Qingyu stared at Zhou Yuan with a half-smile, and said with slightly parted red lips: "Why do I feel like I'm being used by you?
?”
"What an unpleasant thing to say." Zhou Yuan spoke righteously and said, "We are seeing injustice on the road and joining forces to fight against the local tyrants."
As he spoke, he raised his palm, and saw streaks of flame marrow rising in his palm, wrapped in streaks of source energy to limit the dissipation of temperature.
Zhou Yuan smiled and said: "Choose a little. After all, it was the cooperation of you and me. I can't just eat it all by myself."
Zuoqiu Qingyu's beautiful eyes rolled around, and he glanced at these flame essences, then chuckled lightly, but did not refuse. He raised his jade hand and took two flame essences.
One is for a hundred years, and the other is for five hundred years.
The two flame marrows combined can be worth millions of source crystals.
Zuoqiu Qingyu played with the two flame essences and said with a smile: "Since you are so knowledgeable, I will also reveal some news to you..."
"What news?" Zhou Yuan was startled.
Zuoqiu Qingyu narrowed her peach blossom eyes and said softly: "In this flame marrow vein, you have to be careful about that guy named Yang Xuan in the Holy Palace."
"Yang Xuan?" A handsome face with a gentle smile flashed through Zhou Yuan's mind. It was the young man who sat next to Zuoqiu Qingyu during the day.
"This time in the battle for the Flame Marrow Vein, our Hundred Flowers Immortal Palace and Beiming Dragon Palace only sent one Holy Son. Obviously, they did not intend to take the majority, but just wanted to share the pie casually."
"But you, Cangxuan Sect and Holy Palace, probably don't think so. Otherwise, you wouldn't have sent two holy sons each, and both of them are high-ranking saints..."
"Both of your saint sons are very strong and can restrain each other."
"Generally speaking, you two seem to be on equal footing, but I can feel from what Yang Xuan occasionally said that he doesn't take you in his eyes."
After listening to what Zuoqiu Qingyu said, Zhou Yuan frowned slightly. That Yang Xuan was not the Holy Son, so his status in the Holy Palace should be similar to that of Qin Hai, Bai Li and other senior purple belt disciples.
?
Moreover, during the day's contact, he felt that Yang Xuan's strength was around the seventh level, almost the same as Qin Hai and Bai Li. So, where did he get his confidence?
There was a look of thought in his eyes.
But in the end there was no answer, so he nodded towards Zuoqiu Qingyu and said: "I understand, I will be careful."
Seeing this, Zuoqiu Qingyu nodded.
The two talked in detail for a while, and then they dispersed and went back to their rooms.
The first thing Zhou Yuan did after returning to his room was to take out the ancient wooden bracelet and look at it with burning eyes.
This bracelet is mottled and ancient, filled with the rich spirit of Yimu. The material of the bracelet is obviously some kind of rare thousand-year-old wood. There are hidden origin patterns on the wooden beads. It has obviously been refined into an origin treasure.
As long as it is worn on the body, even if the physical body is severely injured, it can repair itself at an extremely fast speed. This will obviously bring considerable benefits to oneself when fighting fiercely with others.
In a sense, it can be regarded as a protective treasure.
If Zhou Yuan hadn't wanted to perfect the "Taiyi Pattern" and cultivate the "Taiyi Green Wood Mark", Zhou Yuan would have been a little reluctant to absorb it...
With a sigh in his heart, Zhou Yuan sat down cross-legged on the bed, folded his hands up and down, and the golden source energy emitted, causing the bracelet to float in his palms.
The golden Origin Qi shook slightly, and the bracelet was broken, with dozens of mottled beads slowly rotating.
His eyes gradually closed.
The beads rotated in his palm, and strands of green aura were peeled off and extracted, and finally flowed into Zhou Yuan's palm and poured into his body.
"What a rich and pure spirit of Yimu!"
When the first green breath poured into his body, Zhou Yuan noticed a different feeling from the previous absorption of Yimu's energy. This time, Yimu's energy was extremely pure, and the rich breath of life made him feel...
Zhou Yuan's physical body was slightly shiny at this time.
Such a feeling filled Zhou Yuan's heart with joy. This rare thousand-year-old tree was indeed not comparable to the ancient trees he had absorbed before. The energy of Yimu contained in both of them, whether in terms of strength or purity, was unique.
Huge gap.
The joy lasted for a while, and Zhou Yuan regained his composure, and began to control the Yimu Qi that was full of life, integrating it into the flesh and blood bit by bit. At the same time, he used his soul to control it, making the Yimu Qi merge into the flesh and blood.
In an instant, strange traces were formed.
Zhou Yuan has become proficient in this kind of operation over the past half month.
However, when Zhou Yuan was perfecting the "Taiyi Pattern" before, he would always stop practicing due to the thinness of Yimu Qi. Even if he could barely practice, the speed was quite slow.
This resulted in the fact that after half a month, the improvement progress of the "Taiyi Pattern" in his body was still less than one-tenth...
But this time, with the continuous influx of Yimu energy, he finally felt that the Taiyi pattern that had been stagnant for a long time began to be perfected bit by bit at a speed that had never been seen before...
At this rate, Zhou Yuan may feel that the "Tai Yi Pattern" in his body will make significant progress within a few days.
At that time, even if the "Taiyi pattern" had not been completely perfected, the progress would probably be more than half, which is enough to be considered an extremely rapid improvement.
At that point, I think the mystery of "Taiyi Qingmuhen" should be able to be revealed a little bit.
When he thought of this, even with Zhou Yuan's determination, there was a hint of excitement in his heart.
"It seems that in these three days, we will go into seclusion and sprint with all our strength..."
…
The commotion that Zhou Yuan made in the trading venue caused his fame to spread throughout the entire Black Fire City within the next day. The proud men from various forces all knew about a man named Zhou Yuan.
Yuan's disciple, in the stone gambling den, fired out ten flame marrows in one breath, and there was even a thousand-year-old...
Even Su Duan, the young master of the Yanding Sect, lost to him on this gambling stone.
This became an interesting thing for a while, but no matter what, the various forces began to know about Zhou Yuan's name.
On the second day, when Elder Wu of the Cangxuan Sect summoned Li Qingchan, Zhao Zhu and other disciples to discuss the fight for the Flame Marrow Vein, they discovered that Zhou Yuan was absent.
"Zhou Yuan said he would stay in seclusion for three days." Li Qingchan said.
"You were so tossing last night, are you retreating to hide from the limelight? Or are you preparing for the last three days to cram in and improve your strength?" Zhao Zhu said calmly.
Qin Hai and several other disciples from Jianlai Peak laughed softly.
Elder Wu's expression was also a little unhappy. He naturally knew about Zhou Yuan's incident last night, but in his opinion, the joy of gambling on stones was just a trivial matter. Zhou Yuan's own strength was not that great, but here he was.
He is very good at having fun and seems to be a playboy.
Although he didn't have any hope for Zhou Yuan, this kind of inaction was really annoying.
But in the end, he didn't say much. He just waved his hand and said calmly: "Let him go. If you don't live up to your expectations, you can't blame anyone."
Obviously, in his mind, his evaluation of Zhou Yuan has been lowered again, and he is even considering whether to give Zhou Yuan a poor evaluation after the competition for the Flame Marrow Vein.
"Let's start discussing."
…
And time passed quietly in the midst of the excitement among all parties and in the increasingly fiery and chaotic Black Fire City.
