Chapter 149 Swift Shadow Echelon (2)
“Her followers are even worse. This Red Tiger Sect is really funny. They actually arranged for such trash in terms of followers.”
In this half a month, they were all paying close attention to Cen Qingci and her five followers. Through their development in Tree Shadow City, one could often see their abilities.
According to their usual standards, they would only pass if their contribution points reached more than 10,000, including the contribution points after using it, in half a month. Only when it reached more than 50,000 would it be considered outstanding.
More than 100,000 would definitely attract the attention of the higher-ups and belong to the top category of disciples. Judging from Cen Qingci’s performance, she had just passed.
“She’s from a small place after all. How can we expect her to have any stunning performance?” Luo Jun’s other disciple disagreed. He had never thought that Cen Qingci would have a good performance.
!!
In their eyes, Cen Qingci and the rest were like people from the countryside. It wasn’t worth their advanced attention.
“In that case, there’s no need to pay too much attention. Just pay more attention and ensure the safety of the hostage.” Luo Jun said indifferently.
Originally, in his plan, if this hostage of the Red Tiger Sect had a stunning performance, he would make other arrangements for her. But if she was just mediocre, then there was no need to pay too much attention. He just had to ensure that she was in his control.
“The competition for the Swift Shadow Echelon is about to begin. There are a few good seedlings among the candidates this year. I can look forward to it.” Luo Jun thought to himself.
… .
Inside the treehouse, Xiao Shi had successfully expanded up to thirty three Lunar Qi Vortexes to the limit after devouring several Qi Martial-level items in a row.
When all thirty three Lunar Qi vortices reached their limits, many pitch-black and sticky Lunar Qi suddenly surged out of Xiao Shi’s body. The Lunar Qi enveloped his entire body, turning him black.
Xiao Shi’s eyes lit up. He felt that in this state, his use of the Lunar Technique would have a better effect. For example, in terms of using the Lunar Escape, he no longer needed to rely on the night. Even during the day, he could still escape into the Lunar! Moreover, in the state of the lunar, be it speed or recovery, they had all improved greatly.
The consumption of the Lunar Qi Force was also weakened to a certain extent. He could last longer in the state of Lunar.
This was just as he had expected. When the expanded Lunar Qi vortex reached a certain number, there would be some changes in his physique. At the moment, it was only a preliminary change.
According to his speculation, when the expanded Lunar Qi vortex reached sixty six, there might be more changes. However, the expansion of the Lunar Qi vortex was extremely difficult. It required a lot of Qi Martial-level items.
Fortunately, there were many tree spirits in Tree Shadow City that could be killed, allowing Xiao Shi to have more items.
He was no longer only killing on the fourth level of the tree spirit area. He would also kill on the third level. Although the tree spirits on the third level had fewer contribution points than the tree spirits on the fourth level, there were relatively more of them.
More items would drop.
Xiao Shi made a preliminary estimate. The contribution points he had spent in the past half a month were almost 100,000. And this was under the condition that he was holding back. If he sold the Qi Martial-level items on him, he could easily obtain hundreds of thousands of contribution points.
This was a contribution point that was extremely difficult for ordinary people to earn.
However, it was extremely easy for him. This also made his cultivation advancement extremely smooth.
“In at most two days, I’ll be able to open ninety nine Qi vortexes and step into the late-stage Qi Martial realm!” Xiao Shi was very excited. The speed at which his cultivation increased here was not inferior to the increase brought about by killing the evil spirits previously.
At the same time, just as Xiao Shi was about to break through to the late-stage Qi Martial realm, in a huge tree house in Tree Shadow City. The young man in a light green robe, Cheng Tianhao, was discussing important matters with his two good friends.
Cheng Tianhao had a noble aura. His cultivation had already reached the Major Perfection Qi Martial realm. His two good friends had also reached the late-stage Qi Martial realm.
“Tianhao, I’ve already investigated. We can invite a total of four hand guards for the Swift Shadow Echelon this time. These are the candidates I’ve prepared for you.” One of them handed a list to Cheng Tianhao.
After Cheng Tianhao took it, he took a closer look. This list was shockingly four different rankings. One of the rankings was shockingly the Tree Spirit Killing List! This ranking recorded the recent situation of everyone killing the tree spirit.
According to the kill situation, there was a ranking. To a certain extent, the people ranked at the top of this list also had extraordinary strength. After all, these tree spirits were not so easy to kill.
And now, the person at the top of the tree spirit kill list was Xiao Shi’s second identity, Nie Jie. Behind his name was a specific record of his kills.
“This Nie Jie seems to be not bad.” Cheng Tianhao’s heart stirred.
The other two also nodded slightly in agreement. “I’ve never heard of such a person before. He must be a recent rising star. He’s a good choice for a hand guard. Since you have this intention, Tianhao, I’ll negotiate with this person now.”
However, Cheng Tianhao shook his head. “I want to go in person. That way, I can show my sincerity.”
At the same time in another tree house. A graceful girl also looked at the rankings in her hand and focused her gaze on the Tree Spirit Killing List. Nie Jie…” Her eyes narrowed. After searching her memories, she realized that there was no such person in her memories. “Looks like he’s a new rising figure recently. He’s a good choice for a hand guard!”
… .
Whoosh!
After successfully activating two more Lunar Qi vortexes, there were already ninety five Lunar Qi vortexes in Xiao Shi’s body. “I’m only missing the last four!”
His eyes lit up.
Once he reached the late-stage Qi Martial Realm, he would not be far from the Major Perfection Qi Martial Realm. After all, there was a gap between the late-stage and the Major Perfection Qi Martial realm.
There was a difference of one Qi vortex.
However, Xiao Shi could also predict that the activation of the last Qi vortex would definitely be different. As the sky turned bright, Xiao Shi also walked out of the tree house. He continued to head to the tree spirit area.
However, when he arrived at the entrance to the tree spirit area, a noble young man in a light green robe saw him and his eyes lit up.
He took a few steps forward and asked politely, “Are you Brother Nie Jie?”
“Hmm?” Xiao Shi frowned slightly. He looked at the noble young man warily.
“Sir, there’s no need to be nervous. I don’t have any ill intentions.” The noble young man said immediately. “My name is Cheng Tianhao, and I’m one of the contenders for the Swift Shadow Echelon. I came to look for you this time to invite you to be my guard.”
“Swift Shadow Echelon?” Xiao Shi was puzzled.
However, he did not show it on his face. Just as Tian Hao finished speaking, a voice suddenly came from not far away.
“Cheng Tianhao, do you think you can snatch it from me?” As the voice sounded, a graceful young girl suddenly sped over from afar.
Cheng Tianhao frowned. The girl came to Xiao Shi’s side. She said, “My name is Lin Ying, and I’m also one of the contenders for the Swift Shadow Echelon this time. As long as you’re willing to be my guard, I can give you a Shadow Comprehension Talisman.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the onlookers nearby all took a deep breath. Their eyes were filled with shock. Even Cheng Tianhao’s expression instantly darkened.
Although Xiao Shi did not know what the Shadow Comprehension Talisman was, he could tell that it was definitely an extremely valuable treasure from the reactions of the surrounding people.
Just as Cheng Tianhao gritted his teeth and was about to increase the price, another voice came from not far away. “How could you invite him with just one Shadow Comprehension Talisman? I’ll offer three!”
