Martial Saint through Reading

Ji Wujiang nodded slightly: "When I made it onto the top of the Golden List, I had already reached the Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm."

Chang Qin Jiumin and Chang Qin Nianqi weren’t too surprised, as if they had known all along.

"Senior Brother, the reason I mentioned Chu Ming is also because of the Star Golden List."

"Oh?" Ji Wujiang was somewhat surprised instead.

"In the previous great battle, I used my foundation to activate the Star Golden List and sensed a pair of eyes staring."

Chang Qin Jiumin’s expression became extremely serious: "And those eyes were almost identical to Chu Ming’s."

"!"

"..."

...

At the southwestern border of the Great Qin Dynasty, near the Nine Hordes Kingdom.

The three from the Netherworld Office fled all the way, and after shaking off Ji Wujiang and his group, they stopped here briefly to recover.

Ming Si and Ming Lu first carefully examined the Cyan Stone Ancient Lamp and then, as if remembering something, looked at ’Ming Feng’.

"Junior Brother, how is your injury?" Ming Si took out a bottle of healing elixir, "Take this."

Ming Lu paused for a moment, did not take out another bottle like Ming Si, but instead took out a single elixir.

A mystical elixir rich in Primordial Qi, with semblance of engravings wrapping around its surface.

It wasn’t that Chu Ming was inexperienced and thus surprised, but this elixir was truly extraordinary.

"Ancient Spirit Holy Healing Pill!" Ming Si looked at the elixir with some astonishment, "Third Junior Sister, Master only gave you two of these, right?"

Ancient Spirit Holy Healing Pill?

"Thank you, Senior Sister." Ming Feng cupped his hands in thanks as he received the elixir.

This elixir, he knew, according to the classification of elixirs, was a genuine sixth-tier top-grade elixir. It not only healed injuries but was also greatly beneficial for cultivation.

In terms of value, a single elixir was worth as much, if not more, than some second and third-class spiritual treasures.

In other words, this elixir was comparable to the Black and White Dual Swords primordial artifact he wielded.

"Had it not been for Junior Brother Ming Feng rushing into the Black Tower to hold them off for a while, even if I could successfully refine the Cyan Stone Ancient Lamp, my Primordial Qi Mansion would have been damaged."

Ming Lu recalled how the Black and White Nine Palace Primordial Technique was blocked by that strange painting, and a sense of fear grew in her heart once more.

"Haha, Junior Brother Ming Feng truly performed a great service this time."

A flash of spiritual light appeared in Ming Si’s hands, revealing a silver piece of material the size of a palm:

"Since Third Junior Sister gave you the Ancient Spirit Holy Healing Pill, I won’t give you one. I have no use for this sixth-tier material, so I’ll give it to you, Junior Brother."

"Moreover, given Master’s temperament, as long as we obtain the other two ancient lamps, the reward for you will definitely be better than a sixth-tier material or an Ancient Spirit Holy Healing Pill."

Sixth-tier material? A reward better than sixth-tier material?

Chu Ming’s heart was stirred, and he happily accepted the sixth-tier primordial artifact material on the surface.

Yet, the reward from Elder Mo Chen, given his current strength and ability to disguise, was unlikely to be achievable.

But obtaining a sixth-tier top-grade elixir and sixth-tier primordial artifact material was an unexpected delight all the same.

With this material, along with the Tier Six Evil in Chi’an County, his Elemental Shield Shuttle could not only be upgraded to Tier Six completely but also have three more shield blades refined.

To be honest, if this identity wasn’t fake, Chu Ming would actually like to enter that Black and White Divine Palace for a look.

"Senior Sister, Junior Brother, time is short, and we can’t keep Master waiting. Let’s head to the Nine Hordes Kingdom’s Nether Witch Horde now to seize the second ancient lamp."

As Ming Si spoke, he soared into the sky.

"Senior Brother," Third Junior Sister Ming Lu looked at ’Ming Feng’s’ pale face and called out to Second Senior Brother Ming Si.

"Junior Brother Ming Feng is seriously injured, so let’s not have him go to the Nine Hordes Kingdom’s Nether Witch Horde."

Ming Si stood suspended in the air, looking down at ’Ming Feng’, and felt that Ming Lu made a valid point.

"Junior Brother, you stay here and heal. Wait for me and your Third Senior Sister to return."

"Junior Brother awaits Second Senior Brother and Third Senior Sister’s triumphant return."

Chu Ming cupped his hands to see the two off. Gazing at the sky, his eyes gradually deepened.

’Saved me from having to find an excuse.’

The original plan was to feign injury, giving him an excuse not to accompany Ming Si and Ming Lu to the Nine Hordes Kingdom’s Nether Witch Horde.

He hadn’t expected Third Junior Sister to be so perceptive and open the way for him.

However, as kind as Third Junior Sister was, they weren’t traveling the same path.

Their trip to the Nine Hordes Kingdom’s Nether Witch Horde was destined to fail.

The reason being, the Nether Witch Horde’s You Wudang in the Nine Hordes Kingdom had long been slain by Chu Ming. Even if they turned the entire Nine Hordes Kingdom upside down, they wouldn’t find You Wudang or the second Cyan Stone Ancient Lamp.

And this was precisely a step in Chu Ming’s plan.

Sending them to the Nine Hordes Kingdom to search for You Wudang allowed him the opportunity to help Ji Wujiang eliminate the Tier Six Evil in Chi’an County and lay the groundwork for the second step of his plan.

After waiting in place for a quarter of an hour to ensure that the two headed toward the direction of the Nine Hordes Kingdom’s Nether Witch Horde, Chu Ming no longer hesitated, and flew in the opposite direction toward the Great Qin Dynasty.

...

Nightfall.

Great Qin Dynasty, Chi’an County.

Ji Wujiang, Chang Qin Jiumin, and Chang Qin Nianqi were guarding near the Black Tower.

Suddenly.

Swish!

Ji Wujiang quickly looked up at the night sky.

Right after.

Swish! Swish!

Chang Qin Jiumin and Chang Qin Nianqi also looked toward the southwest.

"Here he comes."

Ji Wujiang showed a look of delight, stepping into the void, heading upward to meet at the cloud level.

Above the clouds, stood a person in the Flame Patterned Robe of Celestial Veil Kingdom’s Black Flame Cult.

"Luo Mu?!"

Ji Wujiang, upon seeing the newcomer, immediately frowned.

But then, his eyes showed confusion.

Moments ago, the aura sensed wasn’t Luo Mu.

But now, it was indeed Luo Mu...

Days ago, he fought Luo Mu in a great battle, and subsequently chased the Nine Hordes Kingdom’s Nether Witch Horde’s You Wudang, so he was very familiar with this aura.

"Celestial Veil Kingdom, Black Flame Cult!"

Having approached, Chang Qin Jiumin recognized the newcomer through the Flame Patterned Robe.

"Tenth Sister, be careful."

"Okay."

The two flew to Ji Wujiang’s sides, warily staring at the one in the Flame Patterned Robe.

’Luo Mu’ observing the trio’s readiness to fight, helplessly split his heart spirit, delving into the communication artifact.
