559 The Mysterious Great Void World (1)
“It’s mainly because the cost of buying information is quite high. However, Little Qing, don’t worry, it is all spent on where it matters the most!”
The captain’s awkward laughter spread from the jade slip.
“Listen, if I pull this off, we’ll be rolling in riches. Even if you go on ten perilous missions for a decade, you won’t be able to match my success this time!”
“Therefore… I need your sponsorship, Junior Brother.”
The captain’s voice was filled with pride and anticipation for the future.
Xu Qing was also a little curious when he heard this. With his understanding of the captain, this matter was really possible. However, the degree of madness would definitely be extremely great.
Hence, after some thought, Xu Qing agreed to the spirit stone sponsorship.
Currently, he had enough spirit stones, but what he needed was military contributions. As a result, after a brief exchange with the captain, he had intended to send them to the captain or arrange for the other party to pick them up. However, he was unaware of the captain’s busy schedule tonight.
Hence, the two of them agreed to meet at the Demon Transformation Sect tomorrow.
Xu Qing also informed the captain that they could utilize military contributions to gain access to the cultivation arts of the three great sects. The captain’s interest was piqued upon hearing this.
“There’s such a thing? I haven’t heard of it.”
“I understand. From the perspective of the Sword Holding Palace, they don’t really want to see that the Sword Holders under them are all from the three great sects. It’s fine now, but there will be some hidden dangers in the future in the long term, so they didn’t publicize the information about using military contributions to learn from the three great sects. However, out of magnanimity, they didn’t stop it either.”
“However, from the perspective of the three great sects, they naturally hope that all the Sword Holders are related to them. Hence, they allowed the imparting of cultivation arts.”
“However, generally speaking, the Sword Holding Palace is the dominant force and the three sects are bound to it. This should also be the way of survival for the three great sects.”
The captain’s analysis was comprehensive. When Xu Qing heard this, he nodded. He felt that what the captain said made sense.
After the two of them agreed on a time tomorrow, the captain ended the voice transmission.
After putting down the voice transmission jade slip, Xu Qing continued to ponder about the enhancement of his hands from the Bizarre Nether Dao Snatching Art.
“As for fusing anomalous substances… Actually, there’s no need for me to limit myself to anomalous substances or poison.” Xu Qing thought about it. As the Third Heavenly Palace in his body trembled, the power of the Poison Restriction spread out and fused into his hands.
In an instant, his hands emitted a dense poison intent. After that, the poison transformed again, forming anomalous substances that belonged to him.
After the Fourth Heavenly Palace shook, Xu Qing’s hands turned purple. The power of the purple moon permeated his hands at this moment.
“With such a change, the enemy will be unable to guard against me in a life-and-death battle. At critical moments, I’ll be able to deal a fatal blow.”
The way Xu Qing thought about problems had always been to start from concealment and surprise. This was related to his growth from when he was young and also the style of the Seventh Peak of the Seven Blood Eyes.
A night passed as Xu Qing adjusted his Bizarre Nether Dao Snatching Art. The next day, Xu Qing didn’t go to the Prison Department. Instead, he applied for three days of leave and went to the Great Void Demon Transformation Sect.
As one of the three major sects in Fenghai County, the location of the Great Void Demon Transformation Sect was located in the southwest direction of the county capital and occupied a large area.
There were many teleportation arrays around it, allowing the true sect territory that was some distance away to maintain a close relationship with the county capital.
There was only one mission for the branch sect here, and that was to serve the Sword Holders.
When Xu Qing arrived, he saw many Sword Holders entering and exiting. The captain had long arrived. He squatted not far away and waved at Xu Qing as he ate an apple.
“Little Qing, over here.”
Xu Qing walked over.
The captain threw an apple over.
Xu Qing caught it and took a bite before passing the spirit tickets to the captain.
Looking at the spirit tickets, the captain was incomparably excited. After taking a big bite of the apple, he spoke mysteriously.
“Junior Brother, don’t worry. According to my plan, it won’t be long before we can do something big.”
“How high is the risk?” Xu Qing asked.
“There’s no risk at all!” The captain looked confident.
Xu Qing nodded. He understood that this meant that the risk was incomparably great.
“Let’s not talk about it anymore. I’m going to look for Wu Jianwu. This guy spent a lot of spirit stones to carry out a Sword Holder substitute assessment through my connections. Today, he’s going to carry out the emperor’s heart inquisition. I gave him some of the materials I used back then last night and made him feel that his money was well spent.”
The captain stood up.
“I’ll go take a look at the results and see if he also got ten feet!”
The captain’s eyes revealed anticipation as he left excitedly.
Xu Qing silently glanced at the captain’s back view. He felt that the captain must have a grudge with Wu Jianwu. Otherwise, why would he scam someone twice in a row?
After watching the captain leave, Xu Qing entered the Great Void Demon Transformation Sect.
The Great Void Demon Transformation’s branch sect, which was established in the county capital, had a ring-shaped overall appearance. Under the encirclement of circles of buildings, it formed a Great Void Formation that was unique to the sect.
Every building was carved with strange-looking ferocious beasts. Some were sinister, savage, and some were calm and auspicious. Most of them were creatures of the forbidden zones, but there were also some nonhuman races.
However, in the Great Void Demon Transformation Sect’s understanding, they could all be used as demon seeds.
The place to learn the demon transformation technique was in the magic impartation hall.
This hall wasn’t a hall in the usual sense, but rather a series of stone cubicles, each independent and isolated from the others.
There were a hundred of them.
After spending a certain amount of military contributions, Xu Qing was politely brought here by the Great Void Demon Transformation Sect disciple. He chose a cubicle and walked in.
In the cubicle, Xu Qing saw the array formation carved on the ground and a stone tablet.
The stone tablet wasn’t very old and didn’t contain much sense of passage of time. However, the runes on it exuded an ancient charm.
